hazim and his trucks and tyres

sleep tite my lil prince .. dunt worry, we have no bed bugs

I just finished reading cecilia ahern's if u could see me now ... it took me a long wait to get my hands on the book. anyways .. the book basically told a story of havin imaginary friends especially kids .. after two years and still some gibberish talk, hazim has yet to develop an imaginary friend. I guess he has enough company to entertain him. but 1 thing for sure now, he has this great love for trucks and tyres. Every truck is mac now (mac in CARS) and after tagging along papa one day to the tyre workshop and way too many pitstops, he tends to take off all the tyres of his matchbox cars and trucks. He got highly frustrated the other day cos he couldnt take the tryes of his big tractor and mr horsie. Sound effects are included in his endeavour. ajim .. ajim .. i love the way the arranges his trucks and cars in order along the side of my bed and knows to return it to the toybox later.

Now that opah has brought her arabic class to our home, the whiteboard in in the dining area and guess who's the new ustaz in town .. introducing ustaz hazim .. all he writes are scribbles but u can hear the distinctive aa, baa taa and stuff. One helluva good emulator he is. Each day to his own antics and we never could get enough of it. how I wish he doesnt grow up as fast as he is now ..

well today finally came and God how long I've been waiting for it. I made my final bow at the school and I was a bit sad when the boys came over to sing the Phantom song .. How i will cherish the days with the lazy but very behaved boys. I was weary of getting an ol boys class at first but these boys never did or say anything untowards and i am so grateful for bein placed in the ok school. well now that practicums over .. back to college .. hmm .. I wonder how we'll be ..

a big birthday shoutout to ajim's yayang .. happy 23rd .. may you'll be blessed with all the happiness in this world.

song of the day .. whassup with teriyaki boys? man its irritating to hear and damn catchy too. hate myself for humming the sing .. dam.

hazim and kajang's tea party

this was taken during his first party ever .. we are gonna have a number 2 cake this year .. not gonna buy last minute like what I did last year ..

too bad we dont live in Boston else the title would be much more glamourous. So its final instead of doin an iftar bday, opah n me decided a separate party before his bday to have a small get together and drink tea. I'm hardly waiting for it to happen cos I so love tea and I know there'll be all those typical tea party eats like finger sanwiches, sausages on picks, tiny drummets and some more fingerfood .. tea itself, cake and all the whatnot desserts. I know there'll be pie or pudding. yummy. Now thats why I dont wonder why I've became a mommy elephant. And family gatherings? I like. What other better thing to do than sit and chat and eat and hear updates n gossips.

Still deliberating with papa on what to buy. If its up to me .. some educational thingy and if its up to papa, some boy toy .. but whatever it would be .. hazim will always be our best present ever and a bossy 2 year old is better than none .. we are so blessed .. aaaaaaah .. tad mushy there.

so the final week has finally arrived and how me n kak yati are sooo counting the hours til we leave the school to go back to college. Just now we were just grateful how ten week we could get along well despite not being classmates b4 cos God how much I've been hearing friends discovering each other's true colours and how everyone is cracking under pressure. Thank God for kak Yati. maybe the fact that we help each other to survive and do not take each other for granted was y it went well for us plus the fact that there's no competition n bein ourselves and also havin a much more mature thinkin. We do not strive to chase the distinction mark cos hell no neither both of us wants to be sent to God knows where jungle. Pass is enough for us and I never thot that me n her have many similar thoughts n ideas. so hurrah for kak yati. You're the best. My practical would not have been this good without u n If I were to do it all over again .. I pick u still.

Why do I get this crazy feeling that I'm gonna miss the school and its wacky students..

The solo drive each morning and back when I get to have my own thoughts and simply drive and listen to music..

The good food at the canteen compared to pak lang's cafe..

The kind ppl who I dont know much about, so to me are nice..

I cant believe that its gonna be a bit hard to let go ..

In know its kinda late .. but I must get nelly's CD. despite the critics, promiscuous and man eater are sounding better to me by day. man .. its catchy.

hazim and his dramas

he's turnin 2 in a week. my baby is so grown up know and can talk .. I still see you like u just a lil babe. just like this. i'll love u till the ocean doesnt touch the sand.

hazim can be such a drama king sometimes. plus a crybaby. urghh .. me n papa just hafta succumb to his needs bcos during the day he'll be pampered and indulged to death by opah, tokki and his aunts so now he knows that he can get away with murder. how mr. bossypants he has become. I must find a way to stop this from getting worse. What hazim wants hazim gets. Sometimes i do feel guilty cos I'm away most of the time, I bring work back home and I also hate being the curmudgeon mother but if things dont stop now, he'll be a spoilt brat and I must say he's way ahead that path.

There only 2 solutions:

1. move out

2. give him a brother or sibling

Sad to say these are not options at the moment. I still have my study to finish and someone hasta take care of hazim during the day. It will kill me too to separate ajim n the clan at this age. guess i hafta be more stern (like that would happen, I cant even control 42 form 1 students, let alone my son) urgh .. one blessing though, u wont see his dramas cos he's such an angel infront others esp. other bratz.

the taman negara trip was ok. we got to stay in a chalet so papa said its like a vacation from me. curbed my anger and anxiety a bit. I didnt know jungles could appeal to u til I stepped into our national parks. Despite bein dead tired, I enjoyed all the activities especially soakin in the cool river n rapid shootin. And also bein with friends i know I wont meet again after all the hoopla ends. Its been a long time since my last slumber party an best gak sleepin late talkin and talkin. What shocking news u cud find out. Guess its been awhile. Thanks en baha for a significant experience and man u were rite bout it bein a once in a lifetime thing. No way I'm gonna spend a vacation with kids in a jungle or takin boat rides along the river. Not that adventurous. Maybe when hazim is older (like secondary school). missed papa and ajim like mad tho and somehow heard they had great fun without me. huh?

a kopitiam just opened in our neighbourhood. Checkin it out tonite. Hopefully it'll turn out good cos i love kopitiams and havin one near is what i want.

I sooo love rihanna's song. Unfaithful. but the 'I dont wanna be a murderer .. ' part .. kinda tacky.
