moments of terror

yesterday marked the foolishness in me..knw what... i subconsciously gave umar the car key, while he wz playin wt the steering, while i went out to unlock the gate..and suddenly i heard.."tiung,tiung..!" Ya Allah, anakku terkunci dlm kereta sorang2..

dahle another set of key left in my handbag, which happened to be at the back seat! masa tu, klu toreh daging pipiku yg montel ini, confirm x kuar red blood ( blue blood adalah!) 4 few seconds, i x think of anything, i could x even squeeze my own hands! that wz the first time & ever i confronted that kind of situation..

nasib baik air cond baru turned off, so it wz quite ok in the car + cuaca pon not that hot & humid ( ptg..almost maghrib dah masa tu..!)

i felt like sreaming, tp kena control sbb kot2 org nampak, sure pak polisi dtg..so, i slowly pointed to umar the alarm, and slowly taught him to push the blue button..Ya Allah..anakku ini mmg super-cheecky (cam mama awie ckp) kid, dia bleh senyum simpul sambil gelak2..sabar je...i did that for 3, 4 times & he wz almost pushed the button, but whenever his index finger wz abt the reach that button, he smiled at me ( sure dia fening kepala sbb mommy dia cam org hilang akal demonstrating to him on how & which button to push..!) i think i finally fully utilized the TPR ( Total Physical Response) theory on how to teach toodlers to follow ur orders.. huh, x sia2 blajo 5 + 3 yrs..

walid plak ODW frm segamat, baru antar his vulcan to the mechanics sbb ade part yg x satisfy his eyes..huhu..camne nak call ni, HP pon dlm tas tgn..as I wz abt to leave him alone, and ran back to the house to make an emergency call to walid, i suddenly heard "tiung, tiung"..as fast as the lightning strikes, i ran back to the car, open all four doors and grinned (nanny dah pesan, klu anak buat salah jgn marah trus, senyum dulu) and he quickly gave me back the car key..AlhamdulliLAH..

when he reached home, i told him this..so this is his advice (to all mommies out ter..)

1. if u need to leave ur kids n the car ( while u unlock the gate) make sure that u ROLL DOWN the driver's window

2. plz make sure that u switch the gear to P ( for auto) & pull up the handbrake

BUT ABOVE ALL, never, ever leave ur kids unattended in the car..

so mlm td, after magrhib prayer, walid suruh buat sujud syukur..syukur, syukur...sigh..uhhhhhh

Presentation/s - B3P1

NOTE : THIS ENTRY IS WRITTEN FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF BEL LECTURER @ PN DERWINA (not as a LATE BLOOMER!)

we only have few more days b4 the classes r over (officially!), thus, everyone is running here & there, trying to accomplish mission/s within the stipulated time and the same goes to me & my students last thursday, B3P1 had theirs @ presentation skills it was well-delivered (wink!wink!), with each one of them prepared visible & tangible & understandable slides! i must congratulate them for being able to overcome their biggest fear in life ; speaking in PUBLIC! i have witnessed tremendous effort by everyone (including the class rep!) in preparing the speeches, outlines & slides they even hunted me after office hour! we have 31 students, with 4 smaller groups (so that we can monitor and work closely wt each other) & i must say that, i really enjoy working with young blood ( la..mcm mrs dracula plak!) since they're very creative in finding interesting & researchable topics some said that the time given is x enough! well, one advice for these people : time will NEVER wait for you, you gotta hunt them down! the task was assigned to them before the hari raya break, and the class rep took the effort in assigning them their turn by drawing lot (still some say.."tak adil" duh!) enjoy the pix!

being the 1st name in the class, he volunteered himself as the 1st presentor! this guy really improved; from holdin' onto the script to a scriptless presentation good work! any1 curious abt LUPUS? well , this girl knows everything abt it, seems everything is at her fingertips!

one of the presentations that wz well-delivered..sempat posing maut lg!

since the most-talked abt fever has hit the town few months ago, this girl has decided to focus on 'chinkungnya' fever ! well people, let's welcome the chikungnya expertise !

what do you get if you mix a spoonful (i guess so!) of sodium bicarbonate with few drops of vinegar? you'll get this..!

a volcano!

anyhow, congratulations for your performance..

Syawal 2008

The Beautiful Things Are Love..& You

it's been a long time

since i forgot how to be loved

how does it feel to have somebody who cares for me

lovin' a special person never been easy

it's just a 4-letters' word, yet it takes years to say it

but it takes just a second to feel it

simple yet deep thought

some people are so afraid to speak it out

but some are too excited

love could take you nowhere

but it also shapes you into what you are today

and it just so hard to break the rule

to be in love is to be able to undergo extreme circumstances

it will show who you really are

red roses is the symbol of love

is it because red flashes fire?

that one has when they are in luv?

what about blue?

blue as ocean, calm, serenity, isolation

are what it takes to be in love

my dear love,

i am so in luve with you

for how long, until when...i don't knw

all i know is that i want ot be in love forever with you

a man who has taken away my dull heart

and drew rainbow into my life

no matter what it takes

the rainbow will always be there

and no one will ever replace that rainbow

'coz it's so special to me

i will always love you...forever!

i read this to him during our dating moments, & he wz so surprised to hear this & he said that he never tot that i could write such a wonderful poem & he felt really appreciated , so in luv wt me & why am i publishin this on my blog? sbb...sob!sob! he x gettin better today :( i called home, & asked & he said that his joints are gettin aching, the red spots are visible on his face & back...& his voice...wa!wa!makin teruk! i got class till 4pm, wt my bel 422 (report writing) & really x leave early sbb they've to send the reports 2gther wt the articles + last consultation b4 their presentation next wk! patheticnye! + my tesl class tis wk nak tgk a short televonella on virgina woolf..lil' monster ? mlm td he vomiited on the x-so-newly-changed bedsheet! nasib baik x kena, only the quills, but still i had to do laundry last nite!

i think tis is one of "those" moments that test my ability + endurance + patience as a wife, mommy and working lady..so far, doin ok, eventhough our "nest" is up side down

& how i wish for miracles to really strike me..:)

our beautiful moment kat chukai, t'ganu last aug 08..

moments of patience

it's a turbulence period o'er here..
lil' monster still down wt coughin, x get any better..getting worse adalah wt last nite he woke up at around 4am (he tot that it is still ramadhan time! nak bgn sahur le tu!) it turned out that he x sleep, disturbed by his coughin, & nw he got phlegm kesian sgt sbb he wz tryin his best to spit it out, but he x yet he tried...i waited patiently by his side, wt his white towel ( since i just changed the bedsheet 2 days b4 raya) & all he could do wz grinnin..alamak ini budak..i felt like cryin..dia bleh tersengih plak! gave him his milk, he laid down on my tummy, and soon he dozed off..
the above part x the best part...
yesterday when i left home 4 work, walid wz complainin that his joints were achin, + his face has turned red + vomittin...& when i got home around 6.30pm, makin teruk..i just had the feeling that he wz havin this chikungnyea fever @ viral fever..drove him (first time i drove wt him at the backseat! hehe!) when we arrived at the clinic, nasib baik x that many people, so we waited around 10 mins, then he wz called..1st glanced pon doc already knew that it is THAT fever!
lil' monster wz kinda alert and only observed when walid was tiptoe-ing..& tiba2 je he took walid's hand & walked hand-in-hand wt him..alahai swueet!
so nw..i got to look after two sick heroes at home..alice? diakan buah hati walid..so, she's at home, watchin o'er walid 4 me
tu x best sgt..tis mornin..my class at 10am..i wz supposed to have a mass lecture for Reading..to my surprise..only ONE class turned up! lg satu tu..the class rep actually told his fellow classmates that this morning class is cancelled! OMG! kids nwadays!
so i guess my monday blues would probably be "the whole wk" blues
:( :((
toink!toink!
