Sunday That Was...

My little sister was here in Penang over the weekend for a three-day meeting at the beautiful H****** I**.  And what better way for the big sister to unwind than to tag along! As my Saturday was filled with invites to kenduris, I only managed to join her on Sunday. That was good enough!
I'll let the pictures here do the 'talking'!
Like I said before.... oh, I just love the sea! :)





After bidding goodbye to my sister, we proceeded to Gurney Plaza. Biasalah, Mysarah...ada aje nak membeli...
  
We had a late lunch at none other, Hameediyah Restaurant... 
By the time we reached there, the beriani rice was almost finished but they were making more for the evening crowd. Ada juga lauk yang baru masak, so we had piping hot fish curry and also grilled lamb to go with the lovely beriani. Heaven! :) 



Nasi dah nak habis, sempat kaut dulu!.. wahhh, still warm and setapppp!

They're mine...all mine! (wicked!)
Hmm...I think I'm gaining weight....! ;=D
Tata!

Let There Be Light....

This song may be quite 'old' but when I heard it for the first time I was bowled over by the melody! ;-)

And for some unknown reasons, the animated video game portrayed in this song's video clip, reminds me of a dear friend....



Sebelum Cahaya

Ku teringat hati
Yang bertabur mimpi
Kemana kau pergi cinta
Perjalanan sunyi
Engkau tempuh sendiri 
Kuatkanlah hati cinta

 Ingatkan engkau kepada
Embun pagi bersahaja
Yang menemanimu sebelum cahaya
 Ingatkan engkau kepada
 Angin yang berhembus mesra
Yang kan membelaimu cinta

Kekuatan hati yang berpegang janji
Genggamlah tanganku cinta
Ku tak akan pergi meninggalkanmu sendiri
Temani hatimu cinta

 Ingatkan engkau kepada
Embun pagi bersahaja
Yang menemanimu sebelum cahaya
Ingatkan engkau kepada
Angin yang berhembus mesra
Yang kan membelaimu cinta

Kekuatan hati yang berpegang janji
Genggamlah tanganku cinta
Ku tak akan pergi meninggalkanmu sendiri
Temani hatimu cinta

Ku teringat hati
Yang bertabur mimpi
Kemana kau pergi cinta
Perjalanan sunyi
Engkau tempuh sendiri
Kuatkanlah hati cinta


Have a nice weekend, folks!

Night At Auto-City...

This week has been quite a hectic one when the hubby came up with this silly idea of 'jalan-jalan cari makan'. "Bagi mummy berselera makan semula!" was what he quoted! We ate outside a lot since I started picking up on makan-makan again. So much for manja-manja! Sheeshhh!

Last night we had dinner at a new eating place in Perai, some place called Bangkok Station. The usual Thai fare of Siakap Tiga Rasa, mixed vege, kerabu mangga and tomyam; a so-so rating to my liking...Well, give me Thai food at Siriwan - anytime! Since I was famished, no photos of the food were taken. But I have some pictures of our dinner at Pen-Mutiara a few nights ago... I know you'd be drooling.... :))

Sotong goreng tepung

So after dinner last night, we went to Juru Auto-City. This is a hip and happening (heh pening!) place to dine and shop. Since dinner was a hearty one, we obviously came here to window-shop. It was MyC's idea and she, as usual had something in mind to buy.

Over all, it was an enjoyable night out - something I have not been doing for a long time! At Juru Auto-City, (where you can find fleets of luxury cars for sale!), this shopping area is also dubbed as Shops in the Park. A very good concept for family outing...



 The one shop selling designer bags...and they're original, mind you!
Got the signal from hubby, - no more Aigner! waaaa))))

 Shop in the Park... fun!

MyC...tak sabar nak shopping!

Have a nice day, y'all! :)

Please excuse me while I cry...What, again?

I declare myself "cengeng"! I cry easily at anything happy or sad. Usually, the sad part wring most tears out of me! But I seldom cry something about me... I cry for others. Take for instance, this morning... as I was 'blog-hopping', and reading Andrea Whatever's posting about her father's demise, my whole body shook, and tears just flow freely. I hate that, you know...the crying.

Sometimes, when I am sad, I try not to play along with my sentiments. But then there is always something, somewhere out there that I'd encounter that render the cengeng-ness in me.

And.... I am sad right now, and writing this is just an excuse for me to :'(

Fever

I had been ill for several days, and if I have not lost count, it is the sixth day today. I am still recovering a bit from a very high fever, followed by a bout of stomach upset and what-not, that just thinking of it feels like a recurring nightmare. 

It was different this time. The fever I mean. All this while, I had never bother much about my little pain here or little pain there - I was always up and about in no time. Like I said, it was different now. One moment I was shivering and the next I was flushing hot. My head was pounding hard and my body just went 'berserk'.

Four days in bed, I was really an invalid. On the first day saw my temperature rising up to 40 degrees C. I was a picture of restlessness. The hubby, was always at my bedside and really took care of me this time - something I would have avoided him from doing before! And I slept and slept and slept like I had never slept before. The appetite was rather poor too and I hardly shoved down even a morsel into my throat. The slightest mention of food made me sick again so much so I had to take my medicines almost without food.  I never knew I was this weak...

This afternoon, for the first time in six days, I began to nibble on some cut fruits. And I'm quite happy with my progress tonight as I already sipping spoonfuls of tomyam soup! No rice just yet, but I'm contented with noodles for now.

Looking in the mirror awhile ago, I almost didn't recognize myself! I am so frail. No wonder my friends who came by today and yesterday commented on how drastically I lost weight. They were right.

Syukur Alhamdulillah... being sick or healthy, I always know there's a blessings behind every condition God has in-stored for us. So, one day at a time... I'll be back on my feet again, insyaallah.
