today i'm feeling hurt.. really hurt.. the words keep playing again and again in my mind.. wonder if they thought i did it on purpose.. all i ever need is just to give me some time.. they were the only ones i thought who would understand the situation i'm in right now but obviously i'm wrong.. tried very very hard to fight back the tears.. try not to break down.. but i did settle it anyway.. its hard but i know i have to.. just have to take one day at a time now.. personally i feel there are things which are less important, which we can do without for a while.. than to put food on the table..
however there are other things that make me feel depressed today but i will not go into details.. its time to move on..

alhamdulillah.. everything went as planned today... guests started coming at 2.30pm.. luckily all of them came one at a time so me and hubby could entertain them.. the food arrived at 11.40am.. by then everything was ready and arranged as planned.. the two boys put on their baju kurung and i had to tell them repeatedly not to run about.. they were super excited as their cuzzies, the 3F had stayed over for the night.. all of them had slept in the living room.. as usual mom was the first one to come.. she had brought pulut kuning and rendang which she ordered at Aiman's Cafe.. the food that i ordered was ok except for the rice which i find a bit hard.. not sure if everyone was aware of it... anyway everyone enjoyed themselves..
most of mine and hubby's relatives came.. even Obek Dek2 who had difficulty walking, came and stayed for a while.. i was touched that she made the effort to come.. Big Bro, Lil Sis and Big Sis came too... Bro couldn't stay long as he had to go back to the office.. The kids was super kecoh but they spent most of the time in the boys' room.. playing scrabble, uno and whatever they can find to play with.. hehehe.. amidst my hectic day and my mind full of lots of stuff, i had totally forgotten to take photos! shuckssssss.. but its ok.. whatever it is, i will never ever forget this day..
To everyone who took their time to come and to those who helped out, contributed kuih2 and made the day an enjoyable one and not forgetting to Jen who had willingly swapped her off day with me today (& at the last minute, mind you)... sincerely from me.. THANK YOU!

as of now, i'm feeling extremely tired.. aimin has not recovered yet.. yesterday he was crying in pain the whole night.. i woke up at 4 am and he wasn't sleeping and hubby was taking care of him.. so we decided to bring him to the clinic again but the doc who did the circum will only be available in the evening.. the doc gave a stronger medicine for him.. and after taking the medicine and applying minyak gamat, he felt slightly better.. but not before we have to endure both of them screaming while hubby applied it for them.. hehehe
right now, i'm anxiously waiting for tomorrow.. hoping everything will go smoothly.. i must admit i've been feeling a bit stressed out esp when mom kept pushing me for every details regarding tomorrow... tried to take it easy but it was hard.. it's equally hard for hubby too.. but i guess she meant well after all.. i've been going through a series of roller coaster moods for the past few days.. not sure why.. sigh.. ok enough of sighing.. it's time to move on and will update again later with all the details.. ciao

It's time for Aimin & Tin2 to go to the clinic today.. been feeling nervous.. not sure if every mom who's going thru this feel the same way.. the staff from Eden Clinic called @ 10.30 am to say that we can go over immediately as there are cancellations on their list.. told them that we'll be there as soon as the kids are ready.. reached the clinic at 12.30 pm.. when we arrived another boy was inside.. mom and dad also came to wait for the whole procedure to finish.. after taking their weight, applying cream and taking oral medication, aimin went in first at 1.05pm.. hubby accompanied him inside the whole time.. heard him crying at first but after that it was quiet.. he came out at ard 1.35.. slightly smiling and drowsy.. according to him its becos he was playing games throughout the whole procedure.. hehehe.. it's tin2's turn to go in and he was smiling when he was going in and smiling again when he came out.. for tin2 it took only 20 mins.. while he was inside aimin started to cry as it was painful.. me, mom and dad tried our best to console him.. tin2 started crying while in the cab.. upon reaching home we let them rest in our room after taking their medications..
lil sis came (despite not feeling well) and she cried when she looked at the boys.. guess her love for them is very strong that she can't bear to see them in pain.. made me wanna cry too but i hold back my tears.. she also bought presents for them.. guess what it is? a scooter for each of them.. something they'd been wanting.. but they have to get well first before they can play with their scooters.. Big Sis and family also came at night.. the cuzzies are all super excited abt the whole thing.. and Jaja & Zanah bathed Tisya for the first time.. so cute.. Zanah came out of the bathroom with her clothes slightly wet.. hahahahah
That's it for now.. I pray that my two heroes get well soon and can be up and about in a few days time... thanks everyone for your moral support and well wishes.. Tata..
ps i've added some photos taken by me and my niece Jaja today on the right.. enjoy!

did a small kenduri doa selamat at my hse today.. for aimin & tin2's 'big' day tomorrow.. heheheh.. mom arrived in the morning to help out with the cooking.. lil sis also came.. big sis couldn't come as she's working and had to go to another function... i've been feeling anxious, nervous and no appetite to eat for the last few days.. guess it has something to do with tomorrow's stuff.. but it's not such a bad thing cos i just realised i lost weight!! may not be very much but still it's enough to motivate me to continue my 'diet' heheheh.. anyway, i pray that everything will go smoothly tomorrow.. Insya Allah

Went to Shuqun Pri for aimin's award giving ceremony.. on half day today and after work went to Jurong Point for a while and then to JE library as i feel like borrowing some malay novels.. then went home to rest for a while before getting ready to go to son's school.. had to reach there by 6.15 pm.. khairin had came home early today as the other students were released @ 5pm.. reached the school at 6 pm and waited in the hall .. as i sat there waiting i saw some parents came with their respective spouses and even bring their other kids.. in the letter given the other day, they had mentioned only 1 guest was allowed.. so i quickly called hubby and he was at Chinese Garden MRT.. i told him to come over as there are still empty seats available.. he reached at 6.30 pm, just in time for the ceremony to start.. after the principal's and guest of honour's speech and some presentations, the award giving ceremony finally started.. i sat there anxiously waiting for aimin to get on stage.. i can't deny that i felt so proud of him and nothing can describe how i feel when i saw him receiving the award.. he had received best performance for his class together with another student.. Congratulations Aimin! Keep up the good work and mak and abah hope you will always have the drive to excel in your studies! And not forgetting to Khairin, study harder next year ok? i know you can do it!.. And last but not least to Tisya, I love you and can't wait for you to start school next year!... hehehhe

already recvd both sons' report books.. Aimin's got Band 1 for his Maths and Malay, Band 2 for English.. pretty good results i think.. as for Khairin he's got Band 2 for Malay and English, Band 3 for Maths.. i'm happy for him too cos there's improvements in his results from the 1st semester.. but the form teacher had commented that he tends to be playful at times and he also needs to pay attention and be focused in class.. hmmm i don't doubt that at all.. but being playful as he is, i know he has the potential to excel in his studies.. so he needs to work harder next year..
today i claim my 1/2 day in lieu of Hari Raya Puasa which falls on Saturday for Aimin's prize giving ceremony tomorrow.. had promised them that i will reward them if they do well or improved in their exams.. hmmm will think abt that after their 'big day' this sunday.. heehee

the first performance by Sendeng Pukulan
today we set off to a wedding early.. reached there at 1 pm.. lil sis said we broke our record.. hahahha... we had rushed to the wedding so that we could go to TWM at kampong glam to watch performances by the silat members.. there is a royal circumcision function and we would not want to miss it.. moreover we always wanted to give our support to the pesilat .. even though my sons did not perform.. this is their chance to showcase their skills to the public.. reached there at 2+ .. saw the silat boys and girls already waiting outside for the VIPs.. not long after, the much awaited boys arrived.. there are altogether 4 siblings who are going to be circumcised.. and the whole event was very royally done.. from the yellow tablecloth and decorations to the attire.. i must say the whole thing was awesome.. what's more the whole event was even open to anyone.. even tourists who happen to come by.. so we can also enjoy the food.. but as usual i was very shy so only hubby ate to his heart's content.. hehehhe.. however, i must say all this is nothing compared to the silat performances.. some of them are really good.. I really liked the solo performances by one of the boys (whose name i do not know) and by Zul, who is one of the instructors and senior.. we stayed around after that while they are still waiting for the Sultan to come and the silat team are supposed to perform one more time.. luckily mom came along and there is also another mom whose son performed earlier so i did not feel bored.. waited till 5 pm but still no sign of them.. finally they gave up waiting and the silat team went home by bus.. we waited for dad to fetch us and we headed to Zam Zam.. had murtabak and teh tarik before finally going home.. even though we left home early but i didn't feel very tired.. in fact i really had a great time today :-)
