I met Tun M in person!

Besides my normal jobscopes which are doing marketing and finding sales for the company, part of my jobs are also running around and covering events for my clients at the educational institutions. This is actually quite fun as I can see and meet different types of people and experience different things. Despite carrying a tummy at my 24th weeks of pregnancy, I chose to go and cover this event at Limkokwing University to see someone whom I always wanted to see him in person. Yesterday, I drove to Limkokwing University for the event of ‘Conferment of Honorary Doctorate of Humanity’ upon YABhg Tun Dr Mahathir bin Mohamad – In tribute to his landmark contributions to Malaysia and the Developing World.

I reached there about 9am, but Tun M arrived with his wife at around 10am. It was a very crowded event, with lots of people, public, invited guests, students and medias. We followed him walked around the campus and visited a few galleries. It was quite tiring for me, as I need to climb up and down the staircases following the campus tour. But to me, it really worth it as I can see Tun M and his wife in such a near distance, and shot photographs of them. This is really a very memorable day for me as I always wish can get to see both of them in person, and finally, my wish came true yesterday…. Although I saw them once before at outside Ikea, but did not have a chance to take photographs with them at that time ~~


I managed to get this group photograph shot when all the medias were busy with Tun M walking at the front and Tun Siti Hasmah was walking behind looking at some of the products showcased ~

~ 6th June 2009 ~

Today marks the date which I have traditionally married to my hubby exactly for 6 months... For the past 6 months, I have been living in a happily married life, with a baby that we are waiting for him to arrive sometime by the end of September and finally bought our house which maybe can only move in by year 2012. But then is ok, as long as I am with hubby, and he takes good care of me and my family, I am very happy already ~~

As today hubby needs to work, so we actually stayed at home whole day until dinner time. After dinner, hubby brought me to One Utama for some window-shopping. It was very crowded, perhaps due to public holiday. After scouting around and bought a magazine at MPH, we finally found a place to sit down and rest. We happened to pass by this shop called 'Excellent Herbal Food Centre' at LG, and saw that besides selling a lot of different herbs, they are selling desserts too. So hubby suggested us to go in and I can have their 'Double-boiled Snow Jelly with fresh milk and gingko'. This is a very nice dessert and most of all, it is not very sweet... It costs RM12.00 per bowl.

Hubby ordered for himself another similar one but is with white fungus instead of snow jelly coz it is cheaper in price, RM6.00 per bowl... :)


ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 

I still remembered, last Tuesday, when the baby toys arrived at my office, I immediately informed hubby about it. Hubby knows I am very happy when I received the toys, for sure he can sense through the message I sent to him. He seems to be can read my mind, no matter I am happy or unhappy on each and everyday…

Our little conversation after I received the toys:

Me: Dear, the toys arrived lor, got sound wan, very cute and got one small mirror too… hehehe…

Hubby: Good la… so tonite can continue shopping again lor.

Me: But I am cooking dinner tonite worr…

Hubby: Don’t cook la, tonite I bring you go eat Haagen-Dazs ice-cream.

Me: Ic... u don wan me cook is it? (before I finished typing the next sentence, hubby wrote to me as below)

Hubby: I really dun like u cook lo, dun make urself too tired la…

Upon reading this, deep inside my heart, really sweet, really feel happy… (although that night I didn’t choose to eat the ice-cream coz we went to eat some other things)… Really feel that I am should be the luckiest woman now, enjoying the feeling of being pampered and being loved by my lovely hubby.

Hubby, thank you for giving me a happy day on everyday! You must be knowing, a pregnant wife is not easy, that’s why you are using all your ways to make me feel comfortable and happy… You must be knowing, a pregnant wife might be moody at times, that’s why you have been giving in to me all the time.. Bringing me for shopping, searching with me for baby things, eating nice-nice food, etc. Thank you!

谢谢你老公, 现在的我很幸福,因为我有你!

Thank you, hubby! I am very happy & contented now, because I have you!

 

New things for me and baby ~~

Yesterday after work, hubby brought me to One Utama for dinner. After the dinner, we walked from old wing to new wing, hehehe.... thought of wanna ask hubby accompanied me to go and see Joanna Wang. She was there having her mini concert cum signing album event. But after waited until 8.45pm, she also not yet turned up, so we walked off without getting to listen to her beautiful voice on live.



After walking for some time, donno where to go, so we went into a shop selling maternity dresses. I have been to this shop a few times, bought once before at that shop. Really like their dresses, very nice designs and material quite good. This time, they are having 'Buy 1 Free 1' promotion. As all the new arrivals are quite expensive, so I mostly look at those 'Buy 1 Free 1' items... Got to try on a few dresses and pants. But hubby wanted me to buy those one piece dress, he said is easier and no need to think of how to mix and match all the time... And finally, I managed to choose 2 dresses which hubby and I also found them quite nice when I tried them on. I very like it, and after discussed with hubby, we decided to buy it. Hurray! I do not know is this considered a good deal or not, but I bought these 2 dresses at RM 179.90 with the promotion. But just imagine, if there is no promotion, I can only get to buy one dress with the same price...:)

Oh ya, last week, my sister was here in KL. Before this she helped me bought some baby's things from Jusco. According to her, Jusco is having some anniversary sales, and if you purchased with the Jusco coupons, Avent products will have 30% discount. So she helped me bought a few items. As I am thinking of slowly buy bit by bit, so I just told her to help me buy those she thinks are important first. So, she bought for me:
2 Silicone Teats 3m+, One pair of Night Time Silicone Soothers/Pacifier 0-3 months, One pair of Silicone Soother/Pacifier 0-3 months, One pair of Translucent Silicone Soother/Pacifier 3-6 months and One box of Washable Breast Pads (bag 6's) from Avent.

Besides those things bought from Avent counter, my sister also helped me to buy one pack of baby napkins (10 pieces) from Pigeon with 15% discount and one box of Anakku nappy liners. Sister said the nappy liners can help to prevent nappy rash and keeps baby's bottom dry. So she helped me bought one box first for my baby to try. Really wanna thank her soooo much for helping me do all these shoppings!! All I need to do is just to fork out money and pay her :) But seriously, with the 30% discount, really helped me save some money from there ~~ All the baby's things above cost me RM 159.75 ^_^

RM9.98 Value Meal at Bulgogi House

Today hubby needs to work, so cannot accompany me to eat dinner. So I had my dinner with my brother and Ah Wei. Really cannot think of what to eat, so we drove to Sunway Damansara there to scout and see. Turned a few rounds, still cannot find a right place to eat, so we drove to the opposite new shoplots, and so happened to let us found one Korean Restaurant ~ Bulgogi House ~ Outside the shop written a promotion board, 'Value Meal - RM 9.98 Everyday'. So out of curiosity, we walked in to have a try!!

After browsing through the menu, we decided to take the Value Meal. Hahaha :) Coz it is cheap ma... So we chose the choices that we have from the menu, we can chose 3 main course and the 8 side dishes can be refilled at all time ~~
