Icip - icip - My Version

While surfing in tv3.com, I found out one interesting recipe which is laksa Sarawak. I intend to make it after the exam. As usual, I hardly listed down what to buy when going out, then, I noticed when about to make it, and a few ingredients went missing. I asked my hubby, and he said, just proceed with what we have in the kitchen. And here it goes...

Recipe: Laksa Edinburgh (modification from Laksa Sarawak)
Ingredients:
(Gravy)
Shallots (minced)
Garlics (minced)
Lemon Grass (minced)
Small Prawns (minced) – alternate to ‘belacan’
Dried Chillies (blended)
Coconut milk
Salt
Sugar
Black Pepper
Vegetable Oil (Olive is preferred)
Chicken
Prawns
Crabmeat Stick
Lemon Juice
Tamarin Juice
Chicken Stock/Cube
Water

(Dressing)

Rice Mee (Bihun)
Beans Sprout
Spring Onion
Egg

How to:

Put some oil in the pan, heat it up. When heated, put the entire minced ingredient into the pan and fried them until yellowish. Put in chillies, stir the gravy. After the chillies cooked, put in some water, tamarind juice and stir. Put in chicken. Let to boil. Slow down the heat, put in coconut milk. Put in some lemon juice. Stir. Take out the chicken, shred it. Put in the crabmeat and prawns. Stir slowly. Put in salt, sugar, black pepper and chicken stock according to your tastebuds. Stir. Wait until boils, turn down heat.

Boil the rice Mee (if it is dried one). And simmer the beans sprout. Make an omelette and shred it. Shred the Spring Onion as well. Serve the m1ee by putting the gravy on to it, the dressing on top of it. Best served while it still hot. Happy trying!


It was when; the mood of baking came as I never try to make a pizza before. I surf the internet to find the simplest recipe on pizza. And I found out, there were so many recipes on making the dough, so I just gambled and make it according to my understanding. Some of the dough I made as small baguettes for my little ones and he loves every bit of it.

Recipe: Easy Pizza

Ingredients:

(Dough)
Plain Flour
Salt
Water
Sugar
Dried yeast

(Topping)
Cheese
Onions
Ketchup
Mayonnaise
Black Pepper
Sausage

How to:

Mix the entire ingredient in a bowl and make dough. Cover the bowl containing dough with damp cloth for 1 hour until it the dough doubled its size. Pinch the dough to remove the trapped air. Lay the dough on to pizza pan (Don’t forget to grease the pan with oil or margarine). Put on Mayonnaise, ketchup, onions and sausage. Then, put on cheese (lots of it) and black pepper. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes at 220 degree. Serve while still hot. Happy trying!

Missing bin has been found!

In edinburgh, every house has its own bin for household disposal. There are two colors, one is chocolate for grass/gardens diposal, another one is green for general household disposal.Ours was been stolen last 3 weeks as we both came late from school.Almost 3 weeks we've been living without our wheelie bin and had to put our garbage early in the morning at others' bin every friday due collection.

Surprisingly, while we were studying formation evaluation for our exam tomorrow, we heard something outside. We made a guess that may be somebody put our bin back.Then we waited for a while for my husband to investigate.

Ahh...yess, it's back!Hmm...we wonder who but never mind as long we get back our bin, we are more than delightful..but..why take so long...hmm..maybe the person didn't know which houses..i guess...maybe last 3 weeks, the wife has took first the bin without the husband acknowledge it...and the husband came back from work, he saw another bin in front of his walkway and took it to the backyard as well...I don't want to predict something negatively...as I wanted to have a good heart because people here is very generous...I'll update their behavior...but not my upper neighbor ya!!very rock n roll type of family..wonder how his 2 year old son canbear with the loud song of bass...but still they are very respectful to others...

First exam after 4 years left school


It was a hectic preparation for exam.Why did I say hectic?With my current condition as a student cum wife cum mother, it was really hectic.Furthermore, my son is still wake up at night for feeding and last night he woke up for more than one hours nibble on my nip***! I was very upset because for exam, i really need good sleep.Actually I've almost forgot what a good sleep would be as I never had one since my 8 months pregnancy.Imagine the suffering i endure for almost 3 years, and i guess it will keep continuing if i have further kids.I don;'t really mind as long as I am always in the pink of health despite of less sleep that i experienced.

That is the most sacrifice mothers had for the beloved kids.It is really grateful for mother whose kids don't wake up at night after 1 year old or lesser than that.For me, my time to enjoy my sleep has gone and I can't tell when I am going to get those back.

My paper this morning was RESERVOIR ENGINEERING-G11RE.All the questions were answerable BUT unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances plus distraction that I had before the exam, I can't really memorize all the exercises, theories that I've remembered.If and only if I am still single, I know I can at least score 80% of the paper. The questions were really straightforward and have been done in class and exercises included in the coursenotes. If and only if, I had more quality time for study, I know I can score the paper easily.

I felt bit jealous to those who finishes as early as 1 hour before exam ends.They live at the hall and got plenty of time for study.I bet they are going to score all the exam by the way.I don't have anything else to say if any of the single student score lower than mine, i guess they just come for study for fun.

I really hope I will passed the paper and indeed all the 4 subjects. There are 3 remaining subjects, the nearest would be this Wednesday.I hope I can do better for the next 3 subject despite of my difficulties in having quality time for study. I guess, of total 24 hours day x 7 day per week, i only had 10-12 hours of study. And the subject has at least 7 chapters and maximum 18 chapters to cover.

I hope God will give His love to me and granted my wish to pass this MSc with flying colors and return to my beloved home country next year September 2009 and begin a new life as PETROLEUM ENGINEER (for now, I prefer to become petrophysicist as I can not do reservoir this morning but next term, I am going to meet reservoir 2 and simulation...oh dear...)

Wishlists After Exam....

In the midst of preparing exams, I'm always have thought of the after exam wish lists.It's not things that I wish I'll receiving (eventhough it's Christmas!) but things that I've always wanted to do since I get here but didn't have courage to do.They are hmm..I should have list in order but I guess for this post, I just put all that came into thoughts:

1. On the 17 Dec, last paper, going out to Planet Asia for shopping asian food igt nk cari maggi kari laa dgn kicap kipas udang dgn sos cili maggi..)

3. Outing???..hmmm...OMNI carboot sale...

Exam....again??

It has been 4 years I left the study desk and now I am fully at desk munching materials that I supposed to munch 4 years ago (how fool I was at that time...sigh**). I just had my drilling too much and I think I would go for another subject tomorrow. This morning we had session with SHELL on FDP project...very interesting, I like it as it gave me the actual picture of subsurface team on a project, However, I still don't get the true life of PETROLEUM ENGINEER onhand.

There will be 4 subjects for the exams. I'll be sitting separately from mr hubby as i think it's good, pressure for me to see him because he is very struggling with the subjects (asyik study ajer pehtu dengki2 kt org pulak...grrr)..I just going to recover from my bad 2 days flu, fever and cough...which I haven't had time to study as i feel very sore these three days..hopefully I am still can remember what've studied or heard in the class before because I don't to push so hard or else I'll become tyrant at home...hahha..

Being a wife cum mom cum student is very big challenge for me.Frankly, I do not have sufficient time to study at full fuel.I only make use the time at school, and after class as I send my son to nursery from 8.30 to 5.30. Weekend is very hard and at home, due to cold weather, I can't concentrate very well on the material.But I did try to ensure that i cover everything in the course notes or i'll regret it later (this is my practice eversince!). I really hope i can study hard like mr hubby but I can't because everytime i push so hard, I became headache like a big bump on my head.

My expectation is above average, as usual, I expect more but realistic to what I have struggle for and what i believe.I believe in faith in everyday prayer.I believe in God that He will help me in anyway whenever I find difficulties.That is my strongest belief ever.I don't compete with mr hubby or friends, i do it for my personal achievement and happy if everyone score with flying colors..I really hope I'll be among them...AMeen...

Short Update

Have been very occupied with classes and studies lately. Exam is coming in 3 weeks time. Hopefully i can do it very well with the hurdles i am facing here right now.

Aqil was caught with fever+cough+flu last two weeks which made him very uneasy and stressed. He cried whenever we left him at the nursery. Even after he was already cured, he was still grumpy and it took a week for him to restart his mood for school. Now, he is ok with that and very cheerful in which he received lots of stickers from his teachers for good behavior at nursery.

My study is coming to the finale where exam is around the corner. My body is always aching since i carry Aqil morning and evening back and forth to and from his nursery 5 days a week. Imagine that, I've to carry him and run to get on the bus or else have to wait for another one. There was sometimes I feel like my joint is separating and I could not hold the weight anymore which I feel like crying. Aqil just doesn't have strong chemistry with his dad and he doesn't want him to carry him If i'm there. Dad refused to send or pick up Aqil alone and I HAVE to follow and the ache is always there everyday non-stop. I only can wish for good health from GOD.

We planned to buy a car for bringing back home. We did test drive a car but, at the end we have to cancel the deal as Mr Hubby did not like the old engine the car is having. For myself, I'm more esctatic, there were dents and chips at the exterior. So, in conclusion, we are still looking for a nice car with an attractive price of course. I wish we will find one.

Scared Aqil...
We went to Deep Sea World this morning and happy to linger around with other Malaysian.BEST! Eventhough the Deep Sea World is not that exciting. I think, AQUARIA is much better and CHEAPER of course. I'll definitely will go and visit AQUARIA straight away after returning home. At Deep Sea World which is located just 20 minutes from my place, we watch shark feeding.That is my first time seeing live shark live in an aquarium.I get to see the seal which I believed the same as I saw at the North sea beaches during my field trip visit, the COMMON SEAL. I did not see the frog because I don't like them though..GELI!!!

Aqil With his doughnut...
Now, I'm begging for a nice swatch watch from Mr Hubby for exam purposes. I hope we will granted that.I don't care whether it is a used one or where he bought but i really need one and i want SWATCH made. I kept saying this to him from Malaysia and currently I am actually quite dissapointed since he did not take seriously on my request....

Registration Day

We went to Heriot Watt early in the morning together with our beloved son. We have to bring him as we couldn't get anyone to take care of him for that time being. We preferred offer instead of asking for help. Therefore, we just bring him over to our registration day and wished he behaved well that day.

We went to our uni by bus. From Kak Yani's, it just took us 7-8 minutes to arrive. All the briefing was attended by Mr Hubby as it seems unappropriate to bring kid in.I just waited at the entrance with Aqil. The staffs also recognise me as they passed through me to get to the briefing room. We were given a key to enter the classroom building and a set of stationery like calculator, writing pad and guidance book.

Since Aqil didn't want his dad to carry him, I had to carry him from 9 to 4pm.It was really tiring and all I can do was wishing that I got full strength in the ramadhan to get through the day and Alhamdulillah, with the inner courage that I have, I managed to get through that day.

The messy thing happened during the matriculation card processing. We had problem with the medical registration (they just didn't see me carrying a cranky boy because it was late afternoon, most kids are getting restless...the staff consumed my time and i just passed the dental registration as being pushed by Mr Hubby (he is very pushy here).We went back home straight after that.

The next day, I stayed at home and missed the class. Anyway, Mr Hubby brought back 2 bagfull of lecture notes. Seeing the bulky notes, I wonder how I am going to get through all of that with the limitations and difficulties that I am facing here...

Continuation....

We rested to release our bodyache throughout the night. Luckily my son easily adapted with the situation. The next day, we started our house hunting. We waited at the said location but the agent did not appear (this was flat leased under university student welfare, quiet frustrating!!!). However, we did not feel to much frustrated because i don't really like the surrounding eventhough the house is really close to the bus stop and just take 5-7 minutes on the bus to the campus. After waiting for an hour (nearly!), we went back home and rested. We searched through the internet for new ones. Other friends also helping us whenever they heard or found new advert on house for rent.

In summary, we did went to some houses but couldn't make when we couldn't find the said address, the agent did not bring the house keys (apedaa!), the landlord was too picky, and also we've been cheated by agency as we were foreigner (whey got kidse've been told the house was taken while we just about to fill in the form!!!). I felt that were valuable experience to share with my friends who wanted to go abroad, just be strong and careful with the locals! One must be easily adapted with the environment or else you will feel lost all the time.

When we just about to reach one week staying over abg jamal's, we feel it is not proper for us to stay on more than that since they got kids and only two beds in their house. We hope for another home to stay over until we find our home. We've been parasit for almost 3 weeks in edinburgh but that's fate we have to accept. Luckily, there a sis wanting to return to Malaysia for Eid and she allow us to stay in her house Thank you very much Kak Yani, you are really our saviour at the time we really need help. Her house is fully equipped since it has been rented by 3 or 4 Malaysian continuously. We celebrated our Eid there with small Malaysian dishes that I know how to cook eventhough there was missing ingredients!!!

At Kak Yani's, we thouroughly hunt for house and nursery. We got some houses but, as my husband went, there was one nearby but small and only 1 room. And it is very far from the bus stop. As for nursery, my husband went to one in Juniper Green and already filled in the form, then, late evening, we received a phonecall from Pinocchio, a nursery in our campus saying there is place for my son. We decided to send him there instead of Juniper Green. When we looked at the price, we were shocked but my husband preferred there since we plan not to buy a car.

We found our home now a week after we stayed in edinburgh.We met the landlord at night after we break fast and I just said we take the house and nego on the rental. We glad to have a very nice landlord so far and not picky. That is why we picked this house although it is smaller than kak yani's and more expensive than kak yani's.When about to move on, my husband refused to ask for help from our friends here, he did but the help did not turn up maybe due to buziness. So we migrated by taxi and carried ourselves the stuffs we can carry. It was very tiring night that I will remember for the rest of my life.

Finally..

It has been a long time idling in writing this blog. I've been very busy throughout september 2008 arranging my studies stuff. What a hassle i've went through which i feel i'll never want to mess up my life with it again. Lots of grieves and stresses on me.At one point i feel like my head is like a overpressurized vessel and waiting to blow up.And it releases as I looked into my son cute face (i'll never can be more stress than that, and it means, my son is my cure!!). I guess it happens to all mothers, the children are their cure.

Back to what happen in the past few months, my VISA readied on the 10th Sept, we straight went to the MAS office and bought tickets for 3 with our OWN money since MARA said they could not attend last minute ticketing for 2 of us. (i don;t know what will make them CAN'T do that now since everything is done online and ticketless) And we struggling to find the correct form to refund our money, have contacted them in MARA London, haven't reply (well, this is typical, hassle!)...We afraid they refused to refund as they have promised us to refund our money 100%.

So , we flew on the 10th, at 11.45 pm, we checked in early as i want to have meals in the MAS golden lounge (this was my wish ever to my hubby, as i can't enjoy the time in that lounge during my trip to paris last time). We went in and eat a lot...haha...but i guess last time was better since they served nasi goreng...

In the flight, at first we've been given front seat with the baby bassinet attached point.But, there was other family who in need of the baby bassinet so we moved to the back and have the four middle seat for us..MAS staffs were very kind to us..Thanks guys..we really appreciate that..and lucky, on that day, the flight wasn't that full. My son slept through the journey to london and it took almost 12 hours. I couldn't sleep though (very usual). We also had our sahur in the flight.

We arrived Heathrow in the early morning and my son was very fresh (u can expect how he behaved then,).lucky,we didn't go so much hassle at the immigration.There we waited for transfer flight to edinburgh at 11 am. Well, the process for immigration took longer than expected as our flight from kl had a slight delayed.From thre, we really appreciate that kl airport is much better (proud of Malaysia).

We arrived Edinburgh around 12.30 pm, we were brought to penghulu house before abg jamal's (our petronas senior). We rested a few hours than went to abg jamal's.we met his wife, kak g and kids (3 of them). They are really kind to us and we can't have the right word to express how much we thanked them..thanx abg jamal & kak g!

To be continued.....

My Beloved Son

Aqil is now aged 22 months and 2 months more he will be receiving his degree of fully breastfed baby (Oh, i hope i can do it, InshaAllah). He is now can talk a few words and he's started to have bad tantrums (i think he learned it from the other boy). He is well-picked up but sometimes for complicated words, he just keep shut.He likes to follow waht others are doing and mimicks some of funny faces.For me, I feel very lucky to be with him, never missed for one nite (Alhamdulillah).When i heard of other friends who leave their 2months baby with their mom because of working or not trust to other to take care of their baby, i think they are too strong to be away from their baby.I simply cannot be away from my son except going to work which I need to, I have to...

Aqil now, can understand instruction by still need to be guided for new instruction when i instruct in english, He is so MELAYU.He understand and speaks malay very well.But his english sounds like sarawakian english.Hehehe.

His tantrum lately is he does not want to wear shoes, instead he prefers to walk barefooted or else "dukung". It is very hard to put the shoes on him. Evry time he woke up in the morning, first thing is, he must see me or else he will cry out loud, very loud and also when i warned him on something that he must not do, he will run away, standing againts the wall and make ke down face (merajuk ler tu). Then if i grab something from his hand, he will cry out loud and rythmatic. I never know how and when he learned all those things as I usually speak softly to him.

Regardless of the pain that i endured during birthing, I still think that he is so much worth it. He is cute, funny and loving.It is really worth it.Evrytime I look deep into his eyes, I feel all my problems are gone and the world is only me and him. If to describe how much I love him, I can't tell, it is priceless and he is my precious. I think, that's feeling is felt by all mothers and I hope i still have the same feeling for my future children (Aminn). Then, I understand why mothers are so protective.....

The saddest thing I've to go

As an obligatory to the governtment rule, I have to attend a 5 days 4 nites national program at a jungle in Rembau. Initially, I plan to bring along Aqil as he is still breastfeed during the nites. However, there is no use since I still jailed in the camp at nite. Then I planned to escape, I planned to create sickness when near to the date.However, I don't feel this right.I'm not used of cheating since I know, I'll get the punishment later.

Here is the thing came, I have to sacrifice my personal goals for me to abide the governtment rules.Oh dear, this is horrible and I hate it really much.I'm starting to feel so small in this government since the officer works just to follow the law and forget the sensitivity of human beings. I'm started to feel like a prisoner in my own country where the human rights are not justified.I wish oh how i wish dear, the rules are gone, the people who made the rules are all gone but the follower who is s****d and d**b still believe there is a lot of goodness comes out of the s****d rules.

I only ask to sleep with my son during the nite or else be baby and mother friendly camp. I feel really terrible with this. My hubbby is not supporting my thinking, he just say that this is the time for me to stop bf. IT IS NOT 2 YEARs' yet! I hate not doing something that I know I can achieve it. I hate to stop bf for 4 consecutive nites! I HATE this! And remember, those who are behind this, will share the sin you've made to me, and I will not forgive for what ever reason as YOU GUYS are stopping me to do good deeds to my OWN blood!

Preparation

It is one month left for us (hubby & me) to prepare for our long vacation to UK. I just got to contact a few people who live at the place we are going to. Hopefully i will get loads of help from these people.

There is one blog that i visited which is belonged to a housewife. She mentioned to bring along some of malaysian tradition spices or ingredients to make kueh since it is very hard to find over there. Then, it triggered me. Oh, there must be loads of thing that I need to list out to bring along.OMG!

First and foremost, I need to secure a home to live over there. I really hope I got a place that is near to Malaysian community so I still feel at home at least seeing Malaysian people over there. This is the first time I'm going to live outside of Malaysia for quite a long time and can't imagine how would it be. Hopefully evrything goes smoothly.

Second, I need to list out spices to bring along that can cater for a year. OMG! i don't have experience buying things for stocks!I'll try to find free time and think of the brg dapur that I need to bring over. I might have to cook everyday since I don't used to eat bread and cheese everyday and drink coffee and tea everyday.Oh...I must bring my MILO!..Heheh..but 1 kg MILO retains only for 1 months..OH..OH..OH...I need to be very jimat cermat!

Thirdly, preparation for raya...OH, BAJU RAYA! I think we have to buy ready mades' as if we want to tailor, i don't think we have sufficient time.I'll talk over to my hubby about this.What theme for this year and the coming year, i guess, we just recycle it.Hehehe..

Fourth, books to bring over.Do i need to bring my old books for reference? Hmm..Those books are very heavyweight. But I'm used to have all my books with me while studying.Xsuka pinjam2 nih!

Fifth, my closets. Oh, this, I will limit to the end of limit. I dont plan to bring all my closet there. Only important ones! Same goes to my hubby's and son's. Mom's rule OK!

Wahh....5 things already..not to include other small things which is same important...my house..i better make an advert for rental here (if there is anybody interested!..hahaha)

Most important is MONEY! How much money do we have to bring?

Cold and Flu

Last friday, my dear son was caught with a very bad flu. Pity him, the mucus always running out of his nose. The next day, his mucus had become thicker and greenish...oh..oh..and luckily, it keeps running out of his nose. He had cough too but he did not know how to spit. I tried to teach him but he just couldn't get it. Poor boy. Despite of that, he was actively cheerful, he danced and tickled us until he went to sleep.

Then, on Sunday, my husband was infected too. Poor him as he just could not suffer from sickness. Then I told him to take medicine, the he answered how my son didn't have to. I replied, he is on breastmilk, I strongly believe my son's flu will cure by itself within few days. All the mucus has come out and he ate fresh oranges everyday for the Vitamin C supply. Then, I offered him my breastmilk if he too wants to be as good as my son....hehehe...

And today, I got flu myself. Actually I usually caught with flu in the morning. I'm allergic to dust and fur. Those thing will automatically trigger my senses and blocked my nose. I daresay that, I'm quite used to flu and amazingly during my breastfeeding tenure, very seldom that I got sick, Alhamdulillah...I believe my courage and determination to breastfeed my son has strengthen my immune system undoubtedly.

So, my friend whoever read my post, the wives and moms, please breastfeed your children (below 2 years old) as it benefits both. Put away all the misconceptions and old thinking as we are nurturing a new way of breeding our generation.

Alhamdulillah Syukur

Last 22nd July, I received a phone call from Scotland for university entry interview. How suprised I was when the course director who interviewed me said that I got the offer. I was really excited but at the same time I'm worried since I did not prepare on anything yet as I thought that chances to get a place in that university was very little. I straight told my hubby and I was so very happy as I never had a dream comes true. But, I always bear in mind, this will not become a reality until i reached the place.

My hubby also got the offer and we both so stunned and started planning of things to get done before we reached there. I 've already asked permission from my bosses to release for this further studies but however, my position will not be retained as I will be changing my skill groups. And this, I need to ask the HR personnel which is very hard to catch on where i'll be posted after returning.

Last Saturday, we did our medical check up and we have to gove our precious blood for blood test. Asking about the cost, wahh...so expensive but we agree since we still can get the result very soon as compare if we did at the medical centre near to our office. We both were really tired on that day, and my son was caught with bad cold (pity him). So all my plan for that day was blown up! Only went for a quick shopping and returned home and we slept altogether that afternoon.

And on Sunday, my hubby wasn't feeling very well and my son's bad cold was'nt relieved yet. We just stay at home and unfortunately, the power was out for a while and during that time my hubby was in the lift going up to our dear home. Luckily, he can think fast and jump out of the lift after waiting a while for the response team to arrive. This is quite frustrating as we paid quite an amount for the security deposit but still unsecured. I blamed the management of course as for me they don't know how to well managed the condo and the facilities and not disturbing the owners. They are really phathetic!Imagine the swimming pool was very dirty and they don't even service it for owner's usage. The carpark was full of cement dust which make my son having flu and cold quite often. Me myself always had an irritation around my nose and eyes because everyday I passed through the lift at the carpack and the cements was dump there unattended! What kind of management?? We pay quite an amount for it to live in a clean and healthy environment! I wish, the management will be changed soon or improved at least as evrybody including the security, home owners, main contractors personnel and panel contractors were tired dealing with the management office.

Make it ALIVE

Life has been so bored for the past years and today I've decided to make it ALIVE adn CHEERFUL! I envied my friends who could spent their times writing blogs and do crafts as their hobbies. Me? No hobby at all. Let me find ways to color my life so I 'll never feel bored again after this.

First thing first, I just moved in to my new condo and there, I wanted to polish my creativity skills that are buried so long ago. My first project is to clear up the boxes (so many of them...huh!). I guess this would take sometimes to complete. I would divide it into 3 phases of implementation (sound like project engineer huh??)

1st Phase:

Kitchen stuff - 2 weeks

2nd Phase:

Garments - 2 weeks

3rd Phase:

Other stuff - 2 weeks

All 3 phases works in parallel (multitasking is applied here)

Then, within these 2 weeks, I'll launch another project - HOME DECOR!
