Langkawi 12/2014


Right after i got back from Dhaka, Hn decided to take MIL and SIL to Langkawi. Yeah, we should because we left the kids with them for quite a while during our trip abroad.... So on the 26-27 or was it 27-28/12 all 8 of us went to Langkawi eventhough there are rumors saying that its not really safe to go to Langkawi at that time. But Alhamdulillah...



This was Aisyah first boat ride... Alhamdulillah everything went well... I was worried that she's gonna be afraid of it just like when we went to Sabah but naaa.... She's a big girl now...

Hn promised that he will take them to the beach so yeah... The kids and SIL had fun at the beach. Not me and MIL... I had headache the first day and dont feel like going anywhere. I didnt go to beach on the first day... Slept in the room and only went out at night...



Went shopping at HIG mall and then had our dinner... Then off to bed.

The next day, the kids and SIL went to Underwater World while me n Hn went to buy our tickets back to Perlis. MIL was not feeling well so she decided to rest .. Then we went shopping at Langkasuka... 



(Hahaha mcm xdak tempat nak shopping kan) but we did shopped alot.. I got myself 3 pairs of shoes.... Bought some clothes for the kids too...

On the second i went to the beach... I love watching the sunset....

Haf our dinner at the Baron... Good food. Back to our motel and rest. The next day we went back to Perlis... Huhu such a tiring week for me...

Owh btw i haven't completed my travelogue on Dhaka... 1 more episode.... Hahahaha

Roman cinta


 - Mojo ft Caliph Busker
antara lagu best yang sejak AJL29 asiklaaaa dok humming..






Sejak kamu pergi menjauh
Sudah tiada udara untuk diriku hembus
Denyutan nadi pun terbentur melumpuh
Dalam hening jiwa



Jika kamu tak percayakanku
Belahkanlah dada dan kau intiplah di situ
Pasti akan jumpa kasih yang menyala meratap dirimu


Kerana kau satu-satunya 
Cinta agung yang paling kudamba
Tanpamu hilanglah makna
Untuk menikmati romancinta


Aku akan setia selamanya
Selagi masih bernyawa
Pulangkan kembali romancinta
Yang kau bawa pergi


Tanpa kamu menyiram kalbu
Punah semua harapan larut dalam mimpi
Batinku meronta
kau ulang semula
Menyayangi aku


Kerana kau satu-satunya 
Cinta agung yang paling kudamba
Tanpamu hilanglah makna
Untuk menikmati romancinta


Aku akan setia selamanya
Selagi masih bernyawa
Pulangkan kembali romancinta
Yang kau bawa pergi


Beri semula
Hatiku rasa
Romancinta

Amin...


Ya Allah, be kind to me through the survival of my children,
setting them right for me, and allowing me to enjoy them.

Ya Allah, make long their lives for me, increase their terms, bring up the smallest for me,
strengthen the weakest for me,
rectify for me their bodies, their religious dedication, and their moral traits, make them well in their souls, their limbs, and everything that concerns me of their affair, and pour out for me and upon my hand their provisions!

Make them pious, fearing, insightful, hearing, and obedient toward Thee, loving and well-disposed toward Thy friends,
and stubbornly resistant and full of hate toward all Thy enemies! Amen!

Ya Allah, through them strengthen my arm, straighten my burdened back, multiply my number, adorn my presence, keep alive my mention, suffice me when I am away, help me in my needs, and make them loving toward me, affectionate, approaching, upright, obedient,
Never disobedient, disrespectful, opposed, or offenders!

Help me in their upbringing, their education, and my devotion toward them, give me among them from Thyself male children,
make that a good for me, and make them a help for me in that which I ask from Thee!

Give me and my progeny refuge from the accursed Satan,
for Thou hast created us, commanded us, and prohibited us, and made us desire the reward of what Thou hast commanded, and fear its punishment!

Ameen.

Dhaka 5


Starts our day with a healthy western breakfast... Hahah, yeah bread and jam, 
coffee plus fruits. The grapes we bought from a stall when we're in Old Dhaka the day before..


Happy faces because we're going to continue some shopping before the 
reception that night..


Baby Ean is such a good baby.. 
We're not planning to go far because we know that the traffic will be our major problem so Nawra
told us to only shops nearby.. 

Chandni Chowk Market


our destination....
A shopping center is a combination of different types of shops at a single place. It’s also called as shopping mall, shopping precinct, shopping arcade, etc. There are different types of shopping centers are available and many of them are specialized for different category. Basically Chandni Chowk MARKET is best place for local fabrics and Jewellery Shops. Chandni Chowk Market, east across the street from New Market.

its like a shopping heaven.. well for some it is.. because everything is affordable and the choices.....
so we went to the top level (if i'm not mistaken because some of us need to use the restroom)
and later we went for our window shopping and looking for stuffs..

the level we're on were the whole sale level.. so we cant really negotiate the price.. because we're
not buying in bulk.. so we went to the third level.. i think it was the shoe, bags and saree sections.. 



this was the only shop that we entered and we spent alotsssssss here..
hehe.. yeah we only bought saree.. 
i wanted to buy some salwar khamiz and etc but we didn't find the shops.
opppssss wait, we did foundsome shops but we're surveying for prices and later forgot about it..
bla bla... so yeah we only spent our money here.. mom bought alot of saree, i bought some too... 

but still i wish for the cotton materials...


 this is not from me. i Google it.. yeah thats the things i'm talking about.. 
(when my sister is going back to Dhaka i'll ask her to buy me these)


owh yeah, i will remember this one moment 
when the owner of this saree shop talked to me during our negotiation
he called me her daughter.. hahaha.. dont know why but he's being so kind and even prayed for
my health and safety.. due to that reason he even gave us some good prices for the saree.. i'm not sure
whether or not the price is cheap but hey he's nice, and treat us good, willing to take all the
fabrics from the shelves just so that we choose which one is good or not.. 


me on the busiest road at Chandni Chowk, Dhaka...
once done shopping here, i think we went to a restaurant for our lunch..


another good restaurant.. and yes our waiter knows how to speak Malay..
horrayyyy..


the menu.. and the dessert...
i like this one.. its called firni...
i had to look into the menu to find the picture because i didnt capture any..




some good information from a bottle..
hehe.. 

i think thats it for the day.. and later we went back to our house and get some rest
before getting ready for the night... we (girls) even went to a parlour to get ready..
haha.. well i would like to know what's it like to be in the parlour (saloon)

my sister were there since 3pm and we arrived at about 5pm,
she still has not finished her make up
huhu.. that long hah...
only mom n me had our make up done that day.. hehe... so sorry to my sis in law and aunt
(for being there and not having any thing to do)
feel so bad.. just because i wanted to feel what its like to be in a parlour and i drag them with me..


only had the eye make up done at the parlour...
a nice experience

Back to school



2015.. First day at school.. 

Alhamdulillah everything went well.. was worried the night before and i couldn't sleep thinking of what will happen the next day.. yeah being a mom made me worried about unnecessary things.. i'm worried that the kids will be having difficulties waking up on time, getting ready on time and we'll be late to school.. but nada.


Dhaka 4


So after we had our lunch, everybody was ready for our shopping.. we went to the New Market because i did some research and turned out that New Market is one of the best place to shop.. and yeah we had fun.. there's a lot of shops (means a lot of options and lots of bargaining) everybody shop for something.. 

when we entered the market we realized that there is this one guy (teenager) been following us.. we wondered why but ignored him because we were told not to really pay attention to these people.. but turn out he's such a helper for us... Good for him eventhough he's not really good in English but he did well.. 👍👍👍


Our first stop was a textile shop. They have nice and cheap curtains to choose. my aunt and SIL bought some curtains for their house. Its was so cheap that i myself wanted to buy a few piece but due to the max weight for our luggage plus i need to shop for all my family members so yeah maybe later. Walking down the alley there's a lot of clothes and fabrics to choose.. 

we walked to the center area and dad was buying some kopiah.. so i thought yeah why not i buy this for my friends at school (the guys).. once done, we move on to shops selling clothes like jubah, salwar khamiz... Affordable. Nice quality and full with colors. Words, to describe the clothing section. i managed to buy some jubahs/dresses, some traditional Bengali outfit for my girls and suddenly our time is out.. not enough time to shop here... huwaaaa....


that guy is our guide.. we call him Mr Manager.. he will helped us carry all the things that we bought. Special thanks to him for being such a nice and helpful person...

Next, we went to the Glass Tower.. its like the KLCC but theirs have only a single tower made of steel and glass. I guess most of the people in Dhaka didn't straight away go back to their house because of the traffic, so they went for a walk at the park, have drinks with friends, chit chatting and etc.. 




picture time.. hehe.. 


Just my assumption because there's a lot of people there too.. its like they're having picnic under the open sky.. hahaha... cool.. after working the whole day... 


i think we spent a lot of our time on the road compared to others...  Next was the Food Street area.. they have stalls selling food and drinks.. its good too.. Das was the one who chose to eat here and while waiting for our food we went shopping at a store nearby. it belong to my brother in law's friend. cant remember what they called him.. hehe.. It was actually closed already but he's been so kind and let us shop there. They have everything from kids wear to us adults. Since now it's winter (no snow by the way) in Dhaka so the collections are more towards the season... no pics of us there because everybody were busy shopping.. hahaha... bought more clothes for my kids..

then we went down and ate our dinner/supper... We had like 5-6 different food streets' items o eat... There's chicken, kebab, fish, dimsum (more or less) etc... 


Thanks Nawra for this delicious cake... Again we couldn't finish the cake because we just had our dinner/supper so i gave some of the cake to the kids whose been there since the moment we sat down for our dinner.. there's this girl, we hand her a slice of cake and then she feed her lil sister which was still a baby..  Feel a bit worried because its an icing and cheese cake.. Then, another girl came next to me and ask for more.. They even told me that they are hungry.. By the time they're asking for cake, its already gone.. its true what they told us that we shouldn't start giving them something or else they'll be coming for more..



I actually shared my birthdate with the guy serving us dinner that nite, he was happy because we sang the birthday song to him too. I even gave him some of the cake.. Well, i'm even happier making others happy.. 


a year older.. a special birthday from abroad...
