Perjalanan ke kundasang...lawa! kabus

perjalanan mengambil masa lebey kurang almost 2jam...odw sebelum smpi tu mcm boring la...jalan pun agak berliku mcm ke cameron lalu jalan lama *even xpernah lalu situ*..but fraser hill gak ke? tp yang pastu i naik fraser hill yours truly adalah muntah sbb before tu g makan breakfast dl T__T

So biler jmp je KFC..jumpa town "eh pekan tu ada KFC"...so mmg dah smpi la kt pekan kundasang...1st thing 1st, harus la take away dl KFC ni..and jangan lupa nasi utk si kecik...

tu KFC nya..nampak x nampak x?

alhamdulillah kami sampai lebey kurang kul 12thari and blek dah pun siap...kami mengambil package seperti and booked thru their website..nasib ada kosong lagi..pheewwwww

Ok kan KFC sudah di beli...babah xsmpt breakfast pun..n si kecik walaupun dh makan sparuh bekas nasi lemak dlm plane, masih mata bersinar2 nampak makanan...hehehe...so babah layan farouq n makan dl...mama kemas beg, siapkan baju nak pakai...mama mandi n bsiap dl...

so after tu, babah mandikan farouq..siapkan farouq n mama plk makan...ini la penangan ada anak, xde dah nak romantik2...makan mandi sama dah :D

So after bersiap..berdesup kami ke Desa Cattle Farm also known as Desa Dairy Farm..

Open Daily : 
8am - 12Noon
1pm - 5pm
Entrance Fee
Adult : RM 4/pax
Kids : RM 3/pax *btw farouq xkena bayar..rasa kid ni budak skolah kot baru kena charge*

Since i dah buat survey and baca sket2 that mentioned process memberi makan and memerah susu ni adalah bermula dari pukul 3ptg..sbb tu lps check-in leh makan2 siap2 mandi n by 2.30pm baru gerak and berpusing untuk mencari ke tmpt ni..

takkan sesat janji nak bertanya or pakai je waze...ada few roundabouts kt area tu..salah simpang akan salah la tujunya...hehehe..

smpi2 trus posing...and best thing si lembu tu bangun n ke arah kami..sbb pakai handbag & baju merah kah?
melompat & menjerit sebentar...buat malu i jer sbb depan tu ramai orang tggu turn nk posing...hukhuk

proses memerah susu and makan si lembu2 ni mmg di luar jangkaan..BAHAHA....ingatkan lembu2 ni akan dilepaskan and meragut rumput2 kt sekitar kawasan tu...nan ado...drg kasi makan kt tmpt yang disediakan n bukan rumput pun...and kt situ jgk la kawasan memerah susu..and bukan perah manual style ok..smua pakai MESIN je pn...

if tgk gmbr bawah...di depan tu la lembu2 tu menunggu giliran utk makan and tunggu giliran utk diperah susunya :) sangat well behaved lembu2 ni tau...smua beratur as in mmg tmpt tu pn muat sekor2 je pn..lepas di perah dapat habuan makan *or the other way around*....

excited RF
*management sila  la cuci sket cermin tu*

the LEMBUs...my SIL siap tanya "eh asal lembu korban kita x warna hitam putih pn?"...hahaha...mayb sbb ni lembu utk dapatkn susu bukan daging kot..so lembu utk tenusu warnanya hitam putih?? ye ke?

After that..berjalan sekeliling that area..behind us tu ada la tmpt proses susu smua..but xleh masuk pun...

RF yang xsabor ajak beli aiskrim..hehehe

hasil rembatan..

ni je mampu kami beli...we missed the aiskrim yang lepas beratur panjang tengok2 aiskrim tu dh cair...T___T aiskrim mcm cone McD tu, tp smua nya made from milk ok...yummy...*eh xrasa mana tau sedap?*..i guess so sbb susu segar dia tu SEDAP....MANIS....

and another thing yang kami xsmpt beli sbb frq dah excited sgt nk makan aiskrim ermmm...Fridge magnet from desa farm ni..sesapa pergi pesan boleh?? hehehe...

So basically the prices are as below :

Teaser : International Education & Islamic Parenting Conference

A LOT to share...

A LOT...

worth it!

Worth every second i spent my time there by leaving my kid at home...

1st Speaker  (Ustazah Isfadilah Dasuki also known as BBIM Syariah Advisor) with : "Raising Our Children with the Book of Allah & The Important of Islamic Education"

Ustazah Isfadilah 

2nd Speaker (Mufti Ismail Musa Menk) with "Our Children and Digital Technology & Empowering Children to take Charge"

Mufti Menk

3rd Speaker (Dato' Sri Syed Zainal Abidin also known as BBIM Chairman) with "Preparing Children for Life"

4th Speaker (Prof. Dr Muhaya Mohamad) with "Tips for raising children of Jannah"

But one thing i can say...the summary from what have been said and highlighted by all speakers :

CHOOSE THE RIGHT SCHOOL FOR YOUR CHILDREN

and they are not promoting BBIM at all...not even once...

eventho we are sending them to government/public school...not all the schools are the same...the environment, the approach and so on...

and how we as a parent being a great example/role model as well teacher/educator to our children...

i dont know how to express and summarize it...but main thing is, i bet if hubby were there...mesti dalam kepala otak nk bkerja keras and mencari rezeki lebey utk menyekolahkan anak(and future anak2) kami..insyaAllah...

what  i can say....

• The speakers were great! the info and the example given was very comprehensive and the reality on what is happening now! and maybe future...specially dato' punya experiences adalah superb(i want to share this!!)..
• The kids were awesome...
• I was spechless...

BBIM : Little Scientist

One of item dalam Annual Fee' BBIM is Little Scientist Fees that varies based on age...but aktiviti utk per-school i noted lagi best la *harus* compared with Playhouse...

Earlier this week his teacher gave me his "Little Scientists Box"..

that contains few scenarios that involve with science :

1. Science in the Playground
2. Science in the Sea *i guess since the boat tu dah not in a plastic*
3. Science with Transport
4. Science on the Beach
5. Science in the Kithcen

ada few items dah hancur...magnet utk train tu..yang parachute tu pn kena bawak keluar baru sronok main kot..yang kitchen tu pn awal2 sronok la si kecik tu main...but bot tu mcm best, rasanya dia leh float atas air...tp nak kasi budak tu main air...nnti la weekend ek farouq...hehehe..

and inside pun dia ajar how we can relate science or fun activities we can do with our kids...

the most activity yang dicari oleh si kecik adalah Science on the Beach..and he insisted to play with the Kinetic Sand...if im not mistaken tu adalah kinetic sand la sbb dia boleh disatukan but we need a proper space or table utk main my lil boy.....

and biler terpikir yang si kecik ni kadang2 g pantai *berapa kali je pun* TAPI xpernah pun main pasir or buat sand castle, trus rasa nak pergi berjalan ke pantai ngan sikecik BERDUA...and tak di approve oleh en suami... T___T

ye le ye la...tunggu awak la!

Home-Trip, October

Rentetan dari peristiwa Short Home-Trip...so here we go with all the activities yang kami lakukan beside hubby yang super busy itu...

The happy RF dapat berjalan, makan and IPAD...and kemas macam prefect sbb babah la ni

Had our lunch at Madam Kwans

Rasanya kalau kena time lunch..dah few times la Madam Kwan's ni menjadi pilihan...leh refer sini n sini...and as en suami, eventho dah amik main dish utk kami..amik jgk additional sayur n otak2 tu...selera mmg besar...SELERA je la tapi...lastly yang kena habiskan puan isteri jgk!!!.. T___T puan isteri jenis rasa x baik membazir, mmg sanggup habiskan..hahahhaa..

Hasil pembelian yang tiada dalam list

Part shopping mmg serahkan kat en suami...planned nya nak spend time je...masuk kedai ni kuar paperbag..masuk kedai tu kuar paperbag..kt zara tu kalau leh xtau la dia nak beli brapa baju...

alasan "Basiq skrg jumpa orang luar...contractors or authorities smua..so kena la kemas n xkan nak ulang baju sama je".....ye la yang..alasan la alasan..baju dalam bag awak berlambak tu x habis pakai pun T___T

Part beli kasut tu la best...sampai2 je mall..."eh yang...zurai nak pakai kasut apa g sabah ni? xkan tods? mmg la ada sneakers time kawin tu.."...and biler nak balik n menuju ke lif.. "jom la beli kasut awak...ni ha converse"....yezza...hantaran kawin saya adalah sneakers and bukan heels ye :D

smua adhoc...tapi sbb puan isteri xreti pakai sneakers, en suami yang tolong pakaikan n sarungkan n betulkan tali..even kt kedai tu pn *RF lena dalam stroller*..and biler balik rumah lagi skali n menggayakan with the jeans...

terasa romantik nya en suami di situ :p

KL Sentral before hubby off to KLIA via KLIA Ekspress
Chicken Rice shop for 3 person..HEBAT kan? hahaha

last but not least..suppposedly Isnin tu kami nak dinner sempena birthday kami..but since issue n masalah ngan ikea...so kami ke Mali's sahaja sbb en suami x dapat kaan kuey teow on the day dia smpi KL tu..xpe la xdapat romantik dinner...dpt jgk la dengan di bawah sinaran bulan purnama and lampu yang suram2 *makan gerai kan*...and romantik apa sbb AWAK KOPEKKAN UDANG utk wife ni...kira ok la tu..tapi romantik dinner still hutang ye! hehehe 

Brainy Bunch for Year 2014

Alhamdulillah...

bila tgk kat listing campuses under BBIM, banyak sangat new campuses baru di buka...boleh refer di sini...

and now pun BBIM dah bertukar ke international instead islamic...now known as Brainy Bunch INTERNATIONAL Montessori...i pun baru perasan benda ni..hehehe...kenapa and mengapa i tidak tau in details..but they wanted to attract more parents to send their kids here...

insyaAllah next year i will send my lil boy to BBIM but to a different campus..currently he is at BBIM Taman Pelangi, Gombak and next year insyaAllah BBIM KL Sentral...

The reason why i change his campus because?? if rumah bukit jalil or serdang tu siap...kami akan ke sana la..but not totally everyday kat sana..so optionnya kena anta si kecik kt campus yang dekat ngan my opis...so im able to send him from any direction pn... :)

previously i plan nak anta ke CIC Taman Desa..dah survey the place since last year lagi and newly opened this year pun...but since BBIM KL Sentral pn sudah wujud since July this year (a month after i enrolled RF to BBIM Gombak)...so i hantar dia ke KL Sentral je la...

banyak Pros and Cons between CIC Taman Desa and BBIM KL Sentral...operation hours as well the monthly Fee...nanti i citer biler i confirm utk enroll si kecik di KL Sentral...sbb nak pergi sana dl nak monitor both places...then i can decide eventho dah decide pung...hehehe..

next month la amik cuti yang untuk di habiskan this year ada lagi 4.5days...and operation farouq pn dh confirmed di postpone to end of Jan next year...supposedly next week...since hubby busy and alhamdulillah la HUKM pya schedule sangat free...i boleh slot in je the date and currently he is the only patient on that day..

Doa kan yang baik2 saja untuk kami and specially farouq in term of his study and education as well his operation aka his health...AMIN....

ingatkan kindy hunting ni dah selesai...bermula kembali..and 2015 i rasa akan ada lagi..pffftttttt

UPDATED

BBIM dh open for visitation as well registration...so sila la sila...i already called KL Sentral's Campus last week and alhamdulillah mmg skrg masih available lagi...

Hair Cut - One Utama

Owwhh rupanya A'Cut Above xde ek kt One Utama...usually i brought him dekat MidValley..and last time i saw ada kids pya saloon kt Bangsar Village..few saloons (2nd floor) di jengah di OU and nampaknya semua pn xde seat for kids...nak pusing satu OU tu mmg idok la kan...

We arrived at One Utama (11.15am) and RF promised to have his haircut first...then ttiba "Mama nak eat...farouq lapar la"...so went to foodcourt and bought him nasi ayam sudah...tu pn request nak KFC sbb slalu dapat makan nasi n ayam kan...

after had his lunch...mula berdrama xmo gunting rambut...so lepas tu i passed by 1 saloon ni n gamble je masuk...no special seat for kids but they do provide the high chair tu..MELALAK tak hengat la sikecik ni...melompat2 nak turun.... T_____T

lastly that amoi memberi gula2...and ok la sket tp nak duduk atas mama....

duduk atas mama sambil mulut tengah kemam gula-gula...

the process agak lama...patutnya xyah kasi potong rambut atas tu..sikit je mencecah mata...tp sebab potong dh jadi mcm askar pulak...BAHAHAHA....

and u see how he pose sambil menjelir lidah malas layan mama yang suruh pose dpn saloon tu..ahaks...

Top Left : airmata sudah kering...

 

muka sedey...nk nangis lettew...

ada my fren suggest ke Joe's Barber...nmpk few artistes (nora danish & Amy Search) sent their kids ke sana...memang teringin tp sebab budak ni masih budak n tidak cool utk di hantar lagi la nampaknya....malas nk berdrama n memalukn diri sendiri and lagi2 kalau pergi without hubby...sbb sana ramai melayu kot...

hasilnya but of cos sbb pakai wax nmpk lawa kan...hehehe

lepas menangis...perut kenyang..dapat makan dessert pulak tu (sweets)...so apa lagi..tido la!!! mama jgk yang gatal badan sbb rambut smua melekat kt baju...aishhh...and babah plk skrg "nak potong rmbt macam frq"...apa2 la en suami oittt...tp yang pasti biler rmbt pendek ni lagi banyak maintenance nya sbb kena selalu ke saloon nak potong rmbt nya....

Final AF 2013

my 1^st time join concert2 artis yang more to hiburan…BAHAHA..

kasi tiket free…sebat je la…

CONGRATS NABILA AF 2013 aka Bella….

I know di luar sana ramaiiiii orang mengutuk dia…mencaci..siap mengugut…aiishhhh kenapa la dunia ni perlu ada haters….and orang yang mulut kejam mcm tu…

Btw I xpernah undi pun…bukan sbb x nak mnyokong nabila..tapi sbb since AF 1 TAK undi kot…sbb x undi..so jangan la nak ngutuk orang..nak caci orang…

Can u be as STRONG as nabila?? Seriously!!! Mereka ni diberi access to instragram, wechat and mmg bley nampak diri mereka di kutuk ok!

Boleh anda smua berdiri dpan ramai orang..and live di TV menyanyi mcm tu even tau suara nya x merdu mana pun..can u have that CONFIDENT!!! Perghhhh….i cant…nak bercakap depan orang xbiasa pn pandang bawah…nk public speaking apatah lagi..ni nak menghadap n tau muka masuk TV…

Kami hanya confident di depan kamera sendiri sahaja hehehe
basically kami adalah pelanggan tetap mak nabila (my aunt n her frens) :D

And pls be informed…sesapa yang cakap parents si Nabila ni orang KAYA…orang VIP..anak dato ‘ datin…ermmmm..u don’t know them! Her parents just a tailor..mayb la ayah dia aktif berpolitik sbb tu x join masuk ke dewan n x mberi komen secara berdepan…low profile je ayah dia..tp bukan ahli politik yang memang pangkat dato' pun..

Both of them bukak kedai di Bandar Baru Selayang..and there are just a TAILOR and not a DESIGNER ok…tp setakat lepas ni, baju2 and dress2 si NABILA AF 2013 or BELLA ni mmg mak la banyak buat kot..save budget! Bahaha…ayah dia plk bukak kedai menjahit baju lelaki such as baju melayu/kemeja smua….

And me adalah x bkecuali menempah..even baju2 g keje these past few years mmg kt kedai mak nya la…baju raya pn skrg mostly dari kedai mak nya except this year sbb I lambat menghantar so dh x amik order n since kain I lace bagai n lining dia ckp xsempat kalau nk buat pn…ada 1 time baju farouq aka baju dia utk aqiqah di tempah di kedai ayahnya…

me n my aunt with mak artis uoolsssss :p

TQ Kak Sham for the tickets…and tq maktam for the tshirt…sbnrnya my aunt ni yang BFF mak nabila..opis pn dekat..selalu datang melepak kt kedai nya..even time pihak A nak wat interview pn she was sitting next to her…kalau nak citer interview ni, pihak tu siap wat skrip saja nak suruh lagakan n kecohkan suasana, and her mom was doing the right thing by not following those script! “TAKKAN AKU NAK BIAR ANAK AKU KENA KUTUK LAGI”…

So adakah ni permainan pihak yang tu…mcm x biasa ngan AF..sgt cliché..ngan adanya AFmasuk nya lagi…pppfffffttttttt

Sebenarnya salah siapa or mmg layak ke Nabila masuk ke final..i rasa dia sangat bersyukur dia dapat no 5…so that dia bukan top 3 and orang xde la x puas hati ngan dia sangat…nmpk sangat dia suka biler mereka announced..and dia sangat x puas ati masuk final sbb dia tau dia xlayak…and pls tau ye..mak dia smpi pergi ke management untuk mintak Nabila ni dikeluarkan dari awal2 minggu lagi!…sbb dia xsanggup tengok anak dia dikutuk n dikecam mcm tu…

Apapun..kami enjoy!!! 

Aissshhh dulu kes AF tarik diri yang ppuan yang gmbr lucah tersebar tu ada kaitan ngan inlaws (family member) and once pernah menjadi teman tapi mesra en suami masa mereka di Manchester, UK dl aka zaman berhingus.…ni Nabila plk…hahaha..klaka la..

Bersetuju dengan apa yang Sharifah amani commented yesterday…yang nabila dah mengharungi dugaan n cacian and nnti kat luar sana tu mcm petik jari je for her…nothing dah for her…

GOOD LUCK nabila…as per what edry cakap if I  not mistaken..kalau anda tidak cemerlang di bidang nyanyian…maybe modeling..entah2 jadi penyampai radio…jadi pelakon?? Doakan yang baik2 saja…and jangan lupa habiskan belajar yang tinggal 1 sem tu ye J

TQ ibunda yang menjaga si kecik smpi habis sebotol bedak dia buat main...gara2 opah solat n bedak adalah reachable...ermmm...sabtu ni kena tinggal lagi si kecik sbb mama nak attend IEPC plk..dapat dgr siti nyanyi lagi...hikssss
