2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta

We missed the first one last year, so this year mase first2 iklan die kuar in January, aku dah soh husband letak reminder dalam handphone so that kitorg tak lupe. Actually, terlupe jugak sampai la ternampak iklan die again earlier this week.

The 2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta is from 18 March – 21 March 2010 at Precint 2, Putrajaya. Kalau nak tau kat mane, nie kat area government offices tu, and as of petang tadi mmg la sgt teruk traffic nye and tersangat ramailah orang disitu.

DSC00819-horz Ramai ke tak orang?

Kitorang (husband, myself and nur) bertolak dari Kajang around 5.10 pm camtu la, sampai kt precint tu siap ngn parking keta skali pkol 6.00 pm tau! Sgt la tak tau nak parking kat mane, at least they allow to park at road side to takde la susah sgt nak park.

Mase otw, a friend of mine, si Jie tu, message and bgtau die baru je blah dari tgk belon nie and ckp sgt lah ramai orang and mase die nak blah tu baru ader satu je belon tu pon baru je nak naek. Luckily, when we were there all the balloons dah start berterbangan. I was like soo excited, x tau cane nak kate. So, dapatlah amek gambar2 hot air balloon yg tgh terbang and baru nak naik.

So, to those yg plan nak pegi esok, either pegi early in the morning around 8.00 am or in the afternoon around 5.30pm. Kalau lambat sgt nnti takde balloon nak tgk plak, kalau pegi tgh hari balloon tu dok kt darat je plak. Anyway, ape2 pon check their official website first. Tp kalau datang xde balloon, ader banyak activity laen and ader booth utk dilawati (but then, org pegi nak tgk hot air balloon la kot, kalau stakat nak pg booth2 je, kat aku nye convo dulu pon ader byk booth).

To mereka yg ske amek gambar plak, mmg sgt bess nak amek pics kot. Siler lah bwk kamera2 besar anda itu :). My pics above amek pakai camera hp Sony Ericsson C903 5 megapixel aku je. Ehe~

Insyaallah, esok pegi Pesta Buku kat PWTC plak.

p/s: kt dalam newspaper tunjuk ader hot air balloon bentuk Darth Vader, tp td kitorg pegi xde pon :(

Latest Addition To My Collection

Disclaimer sket. Mmg my collection buku2 fiction sgt besar and always bertambah-tambah, tp I buy because I enjoy reading bukannye sbb saje2 nak buat collection. Hahaha~

So, last month mase cuti CNY, husband and me telah decide utk balek ke alor star. So, as most of you already know, Alor Star nie mcm agak jauh jugak la dari KL. At least 5 hours. So, sbb aku nie mmg x ske kalau x tau ape nak buat, so I paid a visit to Kinokuniya the afternoon before kami berangkat so that dlm perjalanan ke Kedah nnti ader la buku nak bace. Turns out that sampai hari nie pon x abess2 lagi baca.  Ehe~ Btw, kalau korg keje kat tmpt aku keje, Kinokuniya KLCC nie la tmpt yg paling convenient nak beli buku :)

So hasil nye ialah…

Nanny Returns!! Sambungan kepada The Nanny Diaries yg telah dipublish quite a few years back. The Nanny Diaries jugak telah diturn into a movie of the same name starring the beautiful Scarlett Johanssen. But as always is the case, buku is definitely better than the movie.

But in the book buying madness, I’ve overlooked and it turned out that…

Ngeh!! buku tu rosak la plak. Drama queen sket. Actually, aku x kesah pon. Buku kalau lagi buruk ngn lunyai lagi I appreciate. Seriously, tak taulah knape perasaan aku camtu.

I also bought the book by Daniyal Mueenuddin entitled “In Other Rooms, Other Wonders” Yang nie blom bace lagi sbb skrang still tgh baca Nanny Returns.

p/a: Sejak-dua menjak dah in the mid twenties nie, speed membaca pon dah semakin slow. When I was a teenager, it’s typical for me to read a book overnight. And I dont speed read. Like ever! Biler I read a book overnight it means slalunye mmg x tido pon malam tu…

2.05 in 2015

DSC00787

Aku nie jarang baca paper or tgk news. Tp of all days, hari2 yg aku terdengar berita kt radio or terbaca newspaper la ader news that caught my attention.

I first heard about this kt radio pagi tadi. Derang soh caller call bagi pendapat on this issue. And I read it biler petang tadi, kt tmpt aku tapau tom yam, aku baca newspaper umum yg kedai tu letak je utk bacaan customer.

The news is “Kadar Kesuburan Wanita Malaysia Dijangka Turun 2015” Ehh…what. Bukannye malaysian woman nie makin tak sihat and cannot have babies or something like that. Apparently, Malaysian woman chose not to have kids. Yang kawen muda, anak x ramai sbb keje. Yang dok layan keje x ingat, kawen lambat and then umur x sesuai to have babies. And those women yang decide langsung tannak kawen for like EVER lagi. And ader lagi la macam2 sebab ini berlaku.

So kalau ikut this news, in 2015 kadar kesuburan wanita malaysia ialah 2.05. Meaning a malaysian lady, most probably akan ader 2 orang anak je. And technically, ini x menambahkan jumlah rakyat Malaysia sbb if a woman ada 2 org anak je, that means anak2 die hanya akan replace die and husband je bukannye tambah the number of Malaysian.

If you ask me, ye la, skrang sme org dapat blaja tinggi2. Pastu kalau dah blaja tinggi2, x kan nak dok umah je jd housewife. So mesti la nak keja. Biler dah keje, dapat gaji bess2, payah la jugak nak berhenti kot. Ehe~ bess woo dapat duet sendiri, kalau nak beli handbag Gucci pon xde sape nak marah kot. Ehe~

And if you ask me again, blaja tinggi2 mane pon and gaji menggunung mane pon takkan weekend nak dok opis. So, I think most people believe that having two kids is manageable, dgn the lifestyle and not having to miss out on having a family. Tp kalau aku, ader rezeki, I want more than 2 kids. Ye la, aku ader 4 adik and since kecik2 kitorg like satu geng. Tak yah pk2 jiran nak kawan ke x, nak maen ape2 pon cukup korum. Dah tua bangka skrang pon we still do lotsa things together (like shopping, tgk movie and mengarut. Kelas2 tuition free and session2 membuat project skolah utk adik2 jangan lah citer, lg banyak). And I dont want my kids to miss out on that. Because that is priceless, regardless of how much your earn per month.

Promote Blog Lagi Satu…

Ramai orang pon dah tau (sbb aku minah kecoh kot) that we’ve (we = husband + me) bought a house. Kami sangatlah excited about everything about the house especially bab2 menghias.

Sememangnye, for as long as i can remember, i love decorating. Kecik2 mase still share bilik ngn adik2 and mase tu still dok kt cheras, i start with decorating my desk. Pastu biler dah dapat bilik sendiri, lagi la menjadi2. Kt UTP pon same, mase tu tgh giler pink, so all pink la! Skrang dah ader permanent roommate (for life!), terpaksa tone down sket my taste because my permanent roommate is a “simplistic” person rupenye.

Encik permanent roommate plak, I seriously tak tau yg die into decorating at all. Ever since the first day I met him sampailer before kitorg beli rumah, there is no impression at all that he cared about decor. Skali tup tup aje, setelah confirm beli rumah and I started talking about decorating, byk betul idea die (yg bertentangan with my ideas). Haha~

Tapi, we have the same view on one thing. We’d like to SHARE! and document our ideas, journey, pokok2, kedai-kedai and barang-barang yg interesting that we stumbled upon in the course of making a once-random-just-a-house, our home.

Just click here to go to KAMI NAK PINDAH!! Baru ader satu entry je pon, but more will come!!

Enjoy!
