9.1kg overweight.

The belly rules the mind :D

asniloveschocolate:


I've gained approximately 9.1 kg since the last seven months.That means, I'm currently 9.1kg overweight from my ideal weight. Huhu.But that, of course, didn't stop me from enjoying:

(i) yummylicious food at Mar's crib on Saturday (birthday celebration for Maira & Ayyash), thanks Mar & Munawar, loved the roti jala bersama kari ayam,hehe!;

(ii) Akok-like kuih Indonesia at Muna's crib- went there on Saturday evening to visit adorable Little Zahra :)






















(iii) Baskin-Robbins' Mint Chocolate Chip & Cookies 'n Cream Ice Cream at The Curve with two lovely ladies this afternoon, K.Arpah & Adrina (ok, ok...it was only me who ordered and finished the ice-cream - well, since two months ago, I would have that particular BR ice cream 2-3 times in a week, without fail, hehe, blame it on the pregnancy! :D) sebelum bergerak ke Warong Ayam Penyet dan menyumbat perut dengan Ayam Penyet yang sedap!

See, I told you...Asni tiada masalah selera makan.Alhamdulillah. :D Selamat memulakan minggu baru & selamat bekerja rakan-rakan! :) Apa kata kita mulakan hari esok dengan berkata "Yay, hari ini adalah hari Isnin!" :P

Sampai bila...

Tika suami enak diulit mimpi...

Hati bergetar di malam hari...

Terfikir sejenak tentang mati...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Balik lambat hari-hari...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Solat jemaah hanya sesekali...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Al-Quran dibaca laju sekali...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Amalan ibadat sunat jarang dituruti...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Terkejar-kejar dengan kerja duniawi...

Sampai bila mahu begini..

Masa bersama keluarga hanya masa saki baki...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Pakaian masih tidak melambangkan Muslimah sejati...

Sampai bila mahu begini...

Ya Allah, berikanlah Hidayah dan bukakanlah pintu hati...

Sebelum maut datang menjemput Hambamu yang hina ini...

Sesungguhnya, tidak mahu selamanya begini...

Two Strangers.

asniloveschocolate:

Was in one of the elevators at my office building, on my way down to meet the Husband, when this one stranger, a young, specky Chinese woman smiled at me and asked about my pregnancy. When she found out that this is my first pregnancy, she went on giving me helpful tips on maternity and delivery. Exercise, ginseng, etc. Sampai di lobi, she waited until the Husband arrived to fetch me.Thank you Yin Mei.

After having our dinner, the Husband and I went to watch Transformers :Revenge of the Fallen, with Kanot. I walked out from the movie theater 10 minutes after the show started though, as the audio was too loud. Lil Miracle and I couldn't stand it at all. Hence, decided to grab a tall-sized caramel frappuccino light blended coffee with whipped cream from Starbucks and sat there for two hours and a-half, waiting patiently for the Husband and Kanot, while reading a magazine bought from MyNews. Huhu.

Was absorbed in my reading, when a stranger, a young, specky Chinese girl, introduced herself to me. Her name is Elin, from France. She said she's currently doing an attachment with a private company and is required by her school to write an assignment on the differences between the work culture in Malaysia and France. "Can I bother you with some questions?", she asked. I immediately agreed as I was bored myself. Heh. "Are you actually allowed to have your breakfast during working hours? I've seen my colleagues do that all the time, sometimes they would take one to two hours everyday" O-oh. Tak tau nak jawab sebab in reality, memang it's like a norm kan?Huhu. If the question is posed to you, what would your answer be, eh?

The Husband finally came out from the movie theatre after two hours and a half. I introduced Elin to the Husband, and Elin said: "Hi, I was her bodyguard for the past two hours." Haha. Comel betul.

Kadang-kadang hairan, macamana a cold person like me boleh beramah mesra dengan two strangers in one day. Huhu.Serious.Pelik.

Work, work, work...

Hard work never killed anybody, but why take a chance? :D

asniloveschocolate:

Was home only 30-45 minutes past midnight for two nights in a row this week i.e. on Monday night and Tuesday night as my boss, a colleague of mine and I got to work on some corporate agreements in respect of a particular project, for an important client. Alhamdulillah, taking into consideration the amount of hours that I've spent for the past two nights at the office, my boss was kind enough to let me leave the office few hours early this evening. On top of that, he has also asked me to take an unrecorded day-off next week. Yay! Beliau juga telah belanja kami makan tengahari di The Royale Chulan Hotel dan makan malam di Prego, di The Westin. Thank you Big Boss! :) A big thank you goes to Abdul as well for being so understanding and supportive! *Hugs, Hugs* Till then, marilah kita semua (termasuk saya sendiri) cuba bekerja dengan seikhlas mungkin (it's hard, but let's try our hardest, heh). Having said that, occasional (and harmless) complaints about work are allowed, of course. ;P Daa!

5 happy things.

Man must search for what is right, and let happiness come on its own.

asniloveschocolate:

There are five things that make me smile since the past couple of days till now, they're all basically mundane stuff, but here goes the list, heh:


1. L.LM Exam Result

Yup, it's out! Got to know about it on Friday from Adrina. Thanks Makcik! Although this semester's result is far better than the last one, but I personally think that it's not good enough as I was praying for a higher CGPA. ;P But still, am grateful to Him. Without His help and mercy, my result could be worse. Thank you Allah. Perhaps, He's saving me the best for another time or for something else. Who knows! :) On this point, I do agree with Lisa Nichols (The Secret), when she said: "Most of the time, when we don't see the things that we've requested, we get frustrated. We get dissapointed. And we begin to become doubtful. The doubt brings about a feeling of dissapointment. Take that doubt and shift it. Recognize that feeling and replace it with a feeling of unwavering faith. "I know that it's on its way." Yay, it's on its way, Asni!

2. Family Dinner
I was able to be out of the office by 6p.m. sharp on Thursday and Friday. And for that reason, I managed to spend some time with my parents two nights ago before they went back to KB .Was feeling guilty few days before as I could not join them in Port Dickson for a short family vacation, due to work commitment (what else, heh). Minta maaf Ummi & Abah. Alhamdulillah, Ummi and Abah had arrived safely in KB yesterday evening.

3. Abdul's Big Decision
Am so happy with Abdul's big decision in respect of this one particular matter. Been trying to convince him for the past two years to take such big step, but knowing Abdul, he would take his own sweet time, to analyse things prior to making any final choice. Alhamdulillah, he finally made up his mind few weeks ago. *A big pat on Abdul's back* :) Abdul Hasib, remember this: "An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest."- Benjamin Franklin

4. Night out with Abdul & Asna
We only decided to catch "Night at the Museum: The Battle of Smithsonian" around 7.20p.m. yesterday. After performing our Maghrib prayer, Abdul drove us to CapSquare and we bought three tickets for an 8 o'clock show. Pheww. Nasib baik takde orang queue. Parking pon banyaaaaak kosong. Tapi most of the shops dah tutup.About the movie? Ermm, not that bad but I personally think that the little kids would find it more enjoyable to watch kot. :D

5. Spring Cleaning
Am currently taking some time off from the spring cleaning session organized by Abdul. ;P Berkotak-kotak majalah, papers and old clothes dah dibuang. Now, nak kena rearrange all the books and files so as to avoid any waste of space in our computer room. It'll be a looong day! Huhu. If you are an avid fan of the Oprah show, you would know that this also known as 'de-cluttering process'. The organizational guru, Peter Walsh once said: "[Stuff] robs people of so much. If your house is full of stuff, all the blessings that could fill your house can't get in. The stuff takes over. It robs you psychologically. You can't be at peace." Hopefully, our life and our mind would be more peaceful after the spring cleaning. :)

Till then, toodles! Gotta continue cleaning! ;) Happy weekend, everyone and be happy!

17 Again.

Who says you're only young once?

asniloveschocolate:


Managed to be out of the office by 6 p.m. on the dot yesterday, hence planned to catch a movie with Abdul later at night. To ease our concerns regarding me watching movies during pregnancy, I personally consulted a doctor friend , while Abdul did some googling over the Net. Setelah selesai solat Maghrib dan bacaan Yaasin bersama, we decided to proceed with our plan (dengan harapan it would be harmless to our Lil Miracle).

Thus, off we went to One Utama to watch 'Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian'. Little did we know that the tickets were all sold out , so we opted to settle for '17 Again', and it's not disappointing at all - a pleasantly entertaining and funny movie, with a dose of sweet anecdotes of love - baguslah untuk release stress. :D

Mike O' Donnell: "Scarlet, before you go through this, I want to remind you of September 7th, 1988. It was the first time that I saw you. You were reading Less Than Zero, and you were wearing a Guns 'n' Roses t-shirt. I'd never seen anything so perfect. I remember thinking that I had to have you or I'd die... then you whispered that you loved me at the homecoming dance, and I felt so peaceful... and safe... because I knew that no matter what happened, from that day on, nothing can ever be that bad... because I had you. And then I, uh... I grew up and I lost my way. And I blamed you for my failures. And I know that you think you have to do this today... but I don't want you to. But I guess... if I love you, I should let you move on." ~Awwh!!!~
