Nur Kasih Ep 14
Ok this series does not need an introduction,everybody loves Nur Amina except me.Please lah let Kat and Adam get back together.Katrina sacrifies everything while Nur just sit and do nothing except nangis and nangis(habis la kene marah dgn peminat Nur=p). But in order to win hati rakyat Malaysia,a typical Malay drama should end with Adam lives happily ever after with Nur,tolong la jgn begitu,bosan =p.Who's with me?

off traveling back to Augsburg,trip to Rothenburg ob der Tauber,Anniversary dinner and Ramadhan Mubarak

Huhu panjangnye tajuk :p
Just bare with me,i'm in the mood to blog.Anniversary is the time of the year.It holds more significance than my own birthday,so i better write this down.

Tuesday: Took a cab @ 330am to Victoria and then a coach to Stansted.Yerp,hear me right,it's 330AM.Sgt letih+mengantuk,so i turned into one cranky bunny,bukan baby jer moody kalau x cukup tido tau :p kesian hubby,but he's lucky enough i didnot ask to be carried.We were on different flights though.His departed an hour earlier,but when i got to see him again few hrs later at Munich Airport,rase macam lamenye tak jumpe:p.Mengade kan?biasalah, kededek my middle name.We safely arrived rumah Augsburg by noon.

Wednesday: Anniversary-Day!Since we're still exhausted,malas nak jln jauh.Initial plan was Lindau(BodenSee kot),tapi we changed it to Rothenburg ob der Tauber,a very very nice medieval city,and it's just 2.5hrs from Augsburg.I just love this old town!Beautifully ornamented Patrican houses are every where and very well preserved.Just look at these photos,the buildings are just lovely kan?The not-so-nice thing about this trip was our connection train was verspaetung(delayed) for more than an hour and we were stranded at this God-knows-where pekan cowboy,seriously rase macam Texas. Thanks to DB,by the time sampai rumah, semua kedai dah tutup(all shops closed @8pm).So no special dinner on this super special day,share sekotak instant pasta je kami huhu,kesian kan?

Rothenburg's Schneeball(snowballs)

Thursday: In this scorching summer heat,i would detest any cooking that required more than half an hour to prepare.Mandi kat dapor nanti.So,we just go for something simple but delectable like these.......

Starter: Hot honey wings(tak pedas pon;p)

Main: Grilled Lemon Chicken with Radish salad,Sweet Corn and Ciabatta
(ciabbata nie beli siap,buat sendiri mau 3 jam baru siap:p)

Dessert: Apple Crumble with Custard

Ramadhan Mubarak

Kami dah start berpuasa hari nie(jumaat),awal lah sehari dari London and Msia. Semoga Ramadhan ini dirahmati Allah dan lebih baik dari sebelum2 nya.After 2 tahun puasa kat Msia semula(2006/2007),this time berpuasa jauh lagi.Of course saya rindu berpuasa di Msia,but somehow puasa di perantauan nie,byk pembaziran dpt dielakkan.No expensive ramadhan buffet or pembaziran di pasar ramadhan berlaku.So let spend and eat wisely,hayati nikmat berpuasa.Allah wishes us to make use of the blessing He creates,but forbids us to waste them.

Give your relatives their due, and the very poor and travelers but do not squander what you have. Squanderers are brothers to the satans, and satan was ungrateful to his Lord. (Surat al-Isra’, 26-27)

Selamat Berpuasa:)

Rothenburg ob der Tauber

a very nice medieval old city.
eh got to go.masak lunch dulu.sambung lepas nie.

3rd wedding anniversary

Dear hubby,
I don't know how are we going to be in the next 20 or 50 years,but i will definitely love you each and every single day for the rest of my life.Happy 3 rd anniversary dek!

Does your hubby let you cut his hair?

Mine does!Ever since err kami kawen kot :p
All i need is a hair clipper.
Make sure you got a good one,karang rosak tgh potong rambut,botak sebelah lah hubby kamu:p
Which style is not a problem since hubby always goes for Wentworth Miller's cut,so i just need to shave his whole head huhu.
Easy for both parties is not it?Hubby does not have to worry about molding his hair pagi2.
Nak potong once a week pon takde masalah,jimat lalala.

Big M virus!

Salam All,
Semua org kenal this virus,brings no detrimental effects to your health(except some weight gain:p) but obviously you need to prevent it as your productivity will be seriously affected!Symptoms of this recently found virus in my abode;
1.MALAS nak gi sekolah/lab
2.MALAS nak tulis report
3.Suke bangun lambat~10-11am huhu
4.MALAS nak keluar rumah,and kalau keluar pon x bawak camera again sebab MALAS.
5.MALAS nak update blog,which explains my silence.
6.yg tak malas aka RAJIN pulaknya MAKAN,TIDO and main WII huhu boleh?:p
Sekarang berebut harvest moon dgn hubby or kitorang main same2,sorang pegang Nunchuck,sorang pegang remote hahaha.Dah bosan main call of duty kotnye,main game isteri plak eh dek?

And when exactly did i get this virus?
Jeng jeng,as soon as my supervisor left for his 1 mth-vacation. Haishh seriously i wake up every morning (if you consider 10am masih pagi :p)in high-spirited mood nak buat thesis write up,finish up my layout blabla.After shower and a bowl of cereal and cuppa coffee,bukak journal,abih satu ayat zzzzz,or berbarn buddy sampai habis bende nak dicuri(Add my fb then habis your tanaman i curi k!Not good!I need to fight this kemalasan,another month to thesis submission haiyoh,wakeeeyy ami!

On another note,hubby has extended his stay yeay!Mid of August nie same2 balik kg Augsburg plak. sekejap sane,sekejap sini huhu.my ma ckp "kelik(balik) german/london mace(macam) gi kota bharu" =p So those of you who are not in LDM should be more than grateful,because really Augsburg-London is no way like Dewan Beta(my place hehh) to Kota Bharu(10 mins away)

Update without gambar adalah bosan and since sgt malas bawak camera,these are the latest(and most decent!) photos dlm camera.Here goes,an afternoon at the Regents Park's Rose Garden.London has a number of parks and Regents Park is one of the finest.We are trying to avoid crowded places macam high street(ok i mean oxford st:p) and flea markets,jadi weekend kami berguling di park;)
