Kuching, Sarawak. (Day 1)

Day 1 - 16 January 2011.


Departure : 0945 am.


Arrived at Kuching International Airport around 1130am ++.
Lunch and took a shuttle (RM9.90 per person) to Tune Hotel..
An affordable hotel that only cost us RM84 for 3 days and 2 nights.

Our Teddy Jr. was not feeling very well that day.
We let him to rest and took some nap at the hotel.
Small little room but just enough for the 3 of us.
While waiting for him to wake up..

It was already dark when he woke up.
We went out for some food hunting.

We went down for a short walk in front of our hotel.
Luckily, Tune Hotel is located in the heart of Kuching City Center.
We went straight to Kuching Waterfront,
took a small boat to cross the river.
Normally it will cost you RM0.40 per person
and RM1 after 9pm.
(Not really sure the actual price
since we paid RM1/person before 9pm that time..)

There were 2 food courts selling all kind of foods across the river.
I was told that you can also get the delicious, famous Sarawak layer cake there.
I tried the 'Teh C' for drinks and Laksa Sarawak to fill in my empty stomach.
Love both of them!! Yummy..

Kimi's 2nd Bday..

Dear Diary,

We didn't throw a party bash for our birthday boy this year.

Instead.. we went for a holiday in Kuching, Sarawak.

Double celebration since we didn't go anywhere special

for our 3rd anniversary last December.

I made an egg free chocolate cake for Teddy Jr.
A simple one with no fancy decoration or candle.
I'm glad that he loves it so much!

Will update more about our trip to Kuching..

Happy Birthday

15 January 2009 ~ 2011

Happy 2nd Birthday

to my dear son..

Hakimi Rossi bin Isa Yassir Arafat

Mommy loves you so much!

New year's resolutions

I know I'm late, Diary..
It's 13 days past new year.

I have been thinking a lot lately.
That is not healthy for me.
..and I got emotional easily,
thanks to this roller-coaster, pregnancy hormone.

To cut everything short
and to avoid me losing my mind
(and to avoid any asthma attack again)
I have decided
that the one and only thing I want to do this year..

is

becoming a Superwoman.


Nah..
nobody can become one.
Including me.

I know that I'm not perfect.
..but that's what I'm aiming for this year.
..to improve myself so that I can be near to perfection.

I'm planing to improve my skills
in many things that I love to do.

Photoshop - advance or higher level.
Design - more software to try out
Sewing - more project for beginner to intermediate level.
Cooking - more recipes to try
Baking - more cakes, muffin, pie, and  biscuits to bake


Dear husband,

I'll try not to be a grumpy, (desperate) housewife any more.
Instead of listing "what if.."
I'll just do everything that make me happy everyday.
I promise to be more positive in every way.
I will try not ask for things that I want
and identify only things that I really need.

Hope this year will be a great year for us..

Another DIY project

We have 3 guest rooms in our new home.

Luckily my sister in law, Kak Nitce 

gave us 2 of her used queen sized mattresses.

It's more than enough to fill in the rooms.

Last week Teddy made another DIY project.

It's a bed frame for the mattress.

Now please envy me because 

I have these 2 very sexy handymen in my home :p

Time for some Quality Check..

Happy New year!

Today is the 1st day of 2011.
01.01.11 .. Nice number, huh?

I haven't list down my new year's resolutions.
I guess maybe I'll do it later.


(Some summary for 2010)


Last year was a good year for me.
A lot of things to remember.
Thanks to you, my dear Diary.
You made it easier for me.

I managed to achieve my goals for 2010.
Remember my 2 missions for 2010?

My 1st mission..
..about the 2 secret projects.

The 1st project was to realize
my crazy childhood dream
of becoming a princess.
I want to wear a sparkling tiara and
beautiful, off shoulder, white gown.
I did share it with you, here and here.

Due to some circumstances,
I didn't get the chance to realize the 2nd secret project.
To be postponed until don't-know-when..


My 2nd mission..
..to lose some weight.

Yes, I did manage to lose few kg last year.
Around 10 kg +/-
..but now I'm slowly gaining weight back due to this pregnancy.


There were 2 big things happen to me last year.

1st - Of course, I'm expecting my 2nd baby..

2nd - New home!


Hope 2011 will bring me more joy and new hopes.
