She's Kinda Hot

Salam!

It's been a great albeit tiring weekend. And today is my protected off time so I'm home for the rest of the holiday! Except for polling day but we'll get to that part later.

Friday: Teachers' Day Dinner at Bliss Garden Expo. Up there with me are my Nursery partner, Val (sitting next to me) and the one standing is our newbie teacher, Diane. It was an okay event, the lucky draw prizes were just meh, mostly fans (what the heck right?) but there was one I particularly wanted: 2TB external hard disk. T.T Because my laptop is starting to slow down, and my only hard disk contains the backup only. I need another one specifically for photos and files. T.T

Anyway, the emcee was HORRIBLE but the food was slightly better than the 2013 dinner. The dessert was so yummy! Longan and Almond beancurd or dunno what but the combo was real good!

Next up: Wedding of the Year...


My cousin, Abang Hannan, as I call him, finally got hitched! The venue was spectacular, totally out of a Cinderella movie setting. I really love the deco, though. Simple and elegant. It was at Raffles Town Club's ballroom, which I would say is a very atas place. It was a combined affair so we saw the bride's side of the family and relatives too. 35 tables full by the way. I actually wondered how much the whole thing cost but why bother 'cause he's a doctor, for crying out loud. Don't even question his salary range, it's definitely big.

Anyway, my other married cousins were telling me, Fazlun buat kat sini jugak la...

All I could manage without sarcasm was a hahaha. Abang Din was asking me when I plan to get married and I said InsyaAllah 3 years' time. (ITS ALWAYS 3 YEARS HAHAHA. K.) He was like, Oh, you got boyfriend already? & yours truly went in my head "Of course la then in 3 years I marry who sia?" But I politely said yeah and went for the kebab queue after that to get out of the conversation. But no, that's not the end because he told me about how he saved up for his wedding and his wife, Kak Ain, gave tips of how to get vendors and the such. Abang Din spent about 30K for his under the block wedding and that's not even counting the hantaran/dulangs. Lol.

Anyway, the wedding. It was okay, bit boring except for the live band playing tunes by Ed Sheeran and I Choose You by Sara Bareilles. We had to stay the whole day 'cause this is Dad's side of the family. We basically just sat there eating Churros and Kebabs the whole time, hahaha. The food made me have a stomach ache after I had it for lunch so I stuck to Churros and the desserts table. Pulot Hitam all the way, a favourite since young! :3

Photo Booth with free flow of photo takes.
Farah enjoyed this one hahaha.
Now I like salted caramel flavour because of this Churros!
*heart eyes*
Lol, also in picture, I kepit under my ketiak the purse Ahmad got for me from Batam lol.

Back to work on the following Monday going through the curriculum with Val and the boss, yada yada, freaking out in the resource room because of dead cockroaches lying around because we had to loan and return the toys, setting up the dramatic corner. Stressing now because I'm doing all the task cards and shit.

I split my days to two, from morning to about 6pm, I do work related stuff. 6pm onwards, I work on my assignment. Sounds like a good plan ya. So far, I've done my planning and task cards, which I need to print and I pray hard I have enough printer ink because I'm not willing to buy as I'm saving for my December holiday trip to Thailand. :B

Then on this coming Polling Day Friday, I'm on duty as the polling agent for 4 hours. I've never voted before so this is like, a new experience. *shocked face* Of course I'd rather stay home, vote and stay home again but I'd like this experience. :p

So that's about how my one week holiday started. Can't wait for the December holidays because it's longer and because of my trip but also dreading the December holidays because I'm back to owning my own classroom again. T.T

Luckily this year, my work did not get in the way of my assignments because my workload was not as much as last year. Not sure about next year though. But I'll take it as it comes. :)

Oh, my birthday just passed and I'm 24 now, a year away to being a quarter of a century old. Just the other day my family and me went to Labrador park for under an hour after our seafood dinner and while Farah and Farhana were playing with the see-saw, my parents and me were looking out at the sea.

Conversation:
Dad: *hugs my shoulders* Dah besar la my daughter..
Mum: Umie dah kahwin bile umur kau tau..
Me: Really?
Dad: *thinks* Tak la, you 25 baru kahwin.
Mum: Oh ah2 la. Lagi satu tahun.
Dad: When you finish your degree? Next year right?
Me: *thinking here we go again* Ya............
Dad: Then next year you kahwin la.
Me: *does the buzzer tet sound* Tak nak la, masih ade hutang dengan bank. Settle all the hutang then can kahwin.
Dad: Ahmad dah save brape?
Me: *giggles* 5K.
Dad and Mum: *laugh*

Conversations of this nature have been coming up a lot lately and it's probably because I'm of marrying age. But seriously, it's different when you're thinking it and when you're talking about it. It won't be anytime soon but until then, I'm gonna focus on my career and education. If I want to be a role model for my kids, I have to build my own success first. :)

Okay! Gotta get back to work. Sidetracked for too long! May y'all be in the best of health, InsyaAllah. Do I still have readers, lol????

Salam!

Sometimes I feel like I'm going insane
My neighbours told me that I got bad brains
But I'm alright though, yeah we're alright though
Cause we're the kings and the queens of the new broken scene
But we're alright though

They say we're losers and we're alright with that
We are the leaders of the not coming backs
But we're alright though, yeah we're alright though
We are the kings and the queens of the new broken scene
But we're alright though
