weekend activities.

saturday, jan 26th 2008.
venue: dr. indon's clinic, level 6, sjmc
brought zaes to see his paediatrician for his monthly immunisation. this time around, he received 2 jabs altogether. one kat his thigh another on his butt. kesian. masa 1st jab, he looked shocked but bole control macho lagi. bila kena second jab, terus uwwaaaaaa!!!! kesian. macam budak kecik kena dera la pulak...

dr. indon: still fully breastfeed? that's very good!
zaes: apa atas meja tu doc? look interesting...

dr. indon: bismillahir rahmanir rahim... you brave boy kan...?
zaes: mommey, doktor buat apa tu..? i can't see her clearly..


venue: chili's, mid valley
b has been craving for the oldtimer burger since forever when we decided to have late lunch @chili's but he ended up eating lamb shoulder. zaes was soundlessly sleeping when his mommey was busy colouring the kids' doodling paper thingey with a cheaper version of crayola. when the food arrived, baru la dia sibuk2 nak bangun. so, b ate (halfway) first, then it's my turn. then his. then mine. (macam tu la ever since ada anak nih...)

oompa, loompa, joompe dee doo...

zaes: one for the album, mommey...

sunday, jan 27th 2008.
venue: my (modified) green room
remember i told you earlier that b was soo into photography lately? this was what we did on a sunday afternoon.... (gawd! actually macam segan la nak tunjuk these pix.. but sket-sket je ok la kot.. heh. and b said "to sharpen my photography (+photoshop) skills")

looking blank and psycotic... hehehehee..


girl, interrupted versi billa.

merenung kejauhan.. bila la nak abis...?

muka terkejut tak sengaja...

billa said, this is the 'orang mati' pose...

fender stratocaster dia ni pon kena enter frame jugak..

tagged by incek rizal.

this is my 2nd time replying to a tag. and i am tagged by this guy.

dia suruh saya tunjukkan internet sanctuary saya..... and hanya inilah yg boleh saya tunjukkan cuz i don't have my private internet sanctuary myself. (kat ofis takleh consider private sebab cubicle public sgt. kat rumah dah takde internet, if not, bole show off.. konon laa..)

gambar ini diambil pagi ini dgn menggunakan my lapok 6111.

ok. this is my werking station at the company for women, 4th floor, creative dept, aka my internet sanctuary. m using the latest g5 dual-core intel xeon processor mac pro. keyboard senget, depan tu ada one of the brochure and a note. phone ofis pon senget.

seblah kiri tu adalah qmendment sheets yg kena buat for my latest campaign bro. the white frame belah kanan tu was my photo kat photo wall from the event launch of our new make up line last year @impiana kl. i was heavily preggie at that time and 3 days after, lil zaes popped out. mugs for my daily (bila ingat je..) consumptions of h2o.

my 6years old oakley glasses kat belakang mouse. backup lotion for my dry skin days (the one with green cap). gold frame yg ternampak sket kat belakang monitor tu was a certificate from this achievement thingey i got last year (no biggie sbb tu tak bawak balik pon). kertas senget yg terlekat tu is an old associates phone extension list. atas dia is a print out of a pic of dania and qistina. 2007 calendar (loser!). and another pile of papers.

kat drawer tu, higlighters, a sample deodorant, meal vouchers to be used kat kantin bawah, pens and pencils and more crappy pile of papers. kipas meja sebagai latar belakang.

and oh. yg depan sebelah kiri tu, pintu bilik kakak r and sebelah kanan tu, our library for all the props, wardrobe and what not (dlm tu ada fridge jugak, where i store my breast milk =D).

dah.

now, i'd like to tag:
cik azyze (idola billa);
foxy one, and
mama dbab.

sekian.

meor mirzaeskandar. but why zaes?

dear sha,
ZAES is a combination of his 2nd and 3rd name. (but er.. actually, there's no 3rd name cuz mirzaeskandar is actually 1 whole name.)

therefore, to call him zaes is relevant.

meor because i am a sharifah who is married to a non-syed fella. thus, when a sharifah married to a non-syed; since i can't name my son syed (or if daughter, sharifah) sebab my husband is not from the syed-sharifah clan, so my anak jadi meor (boys) or puteri/mai (girls), of which you kena letak in the beginning of their names. (but if you're a sharifah-syed clan from... say... terengganu, your anak should be named megat (boys) or puteri (girls))

same goes to the royal clans if they are married to a non-royal members.

owh.. it only applies to the girls. seems that, a girl can't carry whatever title they have sebab lelaki kan lebih dominan dari perempuan... kononnye la..

ala.. the colour of your blood is still red innit? it won't become fuschia or sangria or peacock gold if you are the daughter of cleopatra sekalipon kan...?

ada gak some people yg tak ikut benda nih...

but, it's just a whole tradition thing that i HAVE to follow, to succumb to my dad's wish of "nanti orang tau la family tree dia, dia ni anak or cucu or cicit or piut (yada yada) sape..."
(dia pulak takde anak lelaki.. so since zaes is the 1st boy in the family, lagi la he STRONGLY suggest i put the meor in the beginning of his name)

traditions. traditions.


well, i hope that explains...

sincerely yours,
muharra.

breathtaking momento..


why do birds suddenly appear
every time you are near
just like me, they long to be
close to you

why do stars fall down from the sky
every time you walk by
just like me, they long to be
close to you

on the day that you were born
the angels got together
and decided to create a dream come true
so they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
and starlight in your eyes of blue

that is why all the girls in town
follow you all around
just like me, they long to be
close to you

b is soo into photography now. he'd took trizillions of pix whenever he can and enhanced them and would published them to his flickr page. most of the pix was of zaes la kan.. which i must say quite good and bila combine dengan minda seorang designer (he's always the better designer compared to me.. :p), maka terhasillah gambar2 seperti yg tertera. (for more insights of his flickr page, click here) he's crazy about the HDR techniques, thus you would see lots of 'em later (orang lain dah lama buat tapi dia baru nak explore..)

my favourite for now is the one above. he took this few days ago. at that time zaes was still asleep, but he kept on snapping sampai la dia dapat shot yang nih... ~sigh..~

mommey loves you sooooo damn much zaes!!!

new year? oh.

2008 came unnoticed.

i was at home, watching xmen 3: the last stand, while babysitting zaes & myia.
b and riess together with her 2 rascals, went out to get some food. (and baskin robbins)
mama was in shah alam with her brothers & their family.
papa was out with some friends.
lulu was out clubbing.
billa slept the nite away.
oh, i was even 2 minutes late for the fireworks show on tv.

how lame was that?

entah. i didn't really favour the new year as evrything feels the same for me. nothing much change 'cept that i'm already a mother. this year is even going to be tougher i bet you. work would be tougher. responsibilities would be tougher. MY LIFE would be tougher. ~sigh...~

while tapping these words, my office is still cold and empty. (takkan la tak cukup-cukup cuti yang dorang dah amik ni..?)
only me and mr. "aku kan boss!". belah marketing tu dengar macam ada orang.

dahla still sleepy cuz last nite zaes was very cranky. tak tau la kenapa. maybe perut dia masuk angin kot. or maybe he was having some nightmares.. tapi kesian sangat kat dia. nak marah pon tak sampai hati.

oklah. happy celebrating 2008. eat healthily and be a good person, ok.
