Tonsil and March 2010 - wrap up!

Sorryy......very late updates!!!..guess this is my first ever story telling session....

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@Scenario 1@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

And in she went into the OT..accompanied by Ayah...before she got the G.A. jap...(she was holding ayah's hand until she's put into sleep..and mama kind of miss that moment...as that time mama was still at home, waiting for CH' Mok's to bring us ~mama, m4 & m5 to the hospital..)

(Ooo...hopefully we cd reach the hospital right after m3 was done with the tonsil removal...mama keep praying...p/s:..And CH' Mok belanja we all breakfast that morning...bliss!!)

About 10.30 we reached Al-Is*am hospital in KG B*ru.....

There she was..out from OT...half awake..but already moaning in pain...

"Mama, haus...haus..nak air..nak air."

OO.. no..no..Mama was in tears trying to comfort her... Ayah was very calm...even m4 and m5 cd sense the pain of their sister....

Mama just wet m3's lips with few drops of water..enough to make M3 to sleep again...but not for long...half an hour later..she was crying......( Ya Allah!..kasihanilah anaku...kuatkanlah semangatnya....permudahkanlah segalanya.....)

She had difficulty swallowing and speaking..Ayah was lot patient than mama when it comes to medicine!!..Bad mummy!!





And we were home, 2 days later..Alhamdulillah...

@@@@@@@@@@Scenario2@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

M1 and M2 were at home too last school holidays...we were glued at home....borak, makan dan lepak..ha..ha...

And we managed to do housekkeping..plus, all the girls now enjoyed the spacious room of once mama&daddy enjoyed!..(I miss the air cond tho')..

Ayah and mama has decided to forgo the room to the girls...as we were thinking to shift one the smaller room for my only boy...akhirnya..telah diputuskan all 4 girls in one big room, 1 boy in another room (tapi dia ni mungkin lagi 3-4 tahun kot tidoq sendiri...)..and mama and ayah ambik je lah next room...


Oiissh..penat gak kemas dan pindah barang!!!..settled!

@@@@@scenario 3@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

M1 was awarded few gifts for her school's 2009 anugerah kecemerlangan...Alhamdulillah..

She was so eager to go to BSN to get her cert (sijil simpanan) been cash...

Few days before school end..all of us...went to R*wang....early morning and hope to do some shopping ...things they normally bring back to school..toiletteries lah, food lah..

But..and but...when we arrive at the Bsn counter, the person incharged said:
1."Maaf dik, sijil ni kena tunggu 45 hari dari tarikh keluar..baru boleh tunaikan"
2.:"Adik kena bayar rm12, untuk ganti kad atm hilang:..

Waakaka..kaa...ingat nak dpt extra rm100..kena lak bayar rm12...

SO ape nak shopping????..errggh.hhh

And dgn muka seposen si kakak pun kenen pada si adek...

"Dek, ko ade bape kat bank?..Akak pinjam dulu eh?"

And Kngah as usual..never lokek one.....off we went to Parkson...Kakak was happy...everybody else...too..sebab Kngah belanja lunch!!...


(Mama..dah kering poket!!!!!Even ayah's pocket was badly injured too...and waiting impatiently for EPF refund!!!)

@@@@@scenario4@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Ding-ding-dong
"Perhatian kepada penumpang, tren Express Senandung Malam Ke SIngapura.Sila beratur di depan platform B ..etc..."

KLOng is now love travelling back to and fro her school via train...ketapi tido....and with diskaun pelajar..50%...naik ketapi lagi murah dari naik bas, eg Tr*nsnasional Rm32 itewww....but mama was a little bit worry about safety...but alhamdulillah she was ok when she called us the next morning....all the way to Jb from Kl....time really flies.....she is independent now!

@@@@@@@@@@@@scenario5@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

M2: "Mama, nampak tak jubah adek?"

Mama:.."Aik......mana lah mama tau..kelmarin kan mama dah lipat masuk dlm lemari adek?

M2: "Tak de Ma..kot-kot kakak bawak balik skolah dia!!!"

Mama:..ADe ka...

And mama was sewing an instant jubah frantically just before m2 was scheduled to go back to her asrama...

Isshh..anak..anakk..habis jubah biru kesayangan mama terpaksa di 'trim'....

And we went to send kngah last 2 Sunday...

Funny, when we came back, I just remembered to peep under M2's cupboard....

Laa....bawah almari..jubah kamu Masturah!!!!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@scenario6@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

m4: (came back from skola agama crying..)..Mama!..Mama!!

Mama: Nape yam???(terkejut lah jugak..apasal lak si anak patung ayah ni!!!)

M4: Mama, Iyam dpt nombor 1 pereksa bulanan skolah agama..rase nak pecah jantung!...

Mama & Iyam hugged each other...Alhamdulillah...she simply brilliant
(Yam...mama lagi nak pecah jantung every time tunggu keputusan periksa..semua anak-anak mama..dan Mama masih dan selalu berdoa agar anak2 mama cemerlang akhlak juger)

And M3 has no more tonsil now...( 2 weeks ago ) and she now enjoying the big hole...kemaruk makan lah jugak... a little pain some times near to her throat, some times next to her ear....(DOktor kate...urat2 saraf lah tu...!)..and we shall come back to another doctor at Audio Lab somewhere..nak buat test untuk her hearing...Pasrah aku kepadaMu, Ya Allah!

Thx all for doa...

Kenang Daku Dalam DOa mu...

Hari 'report card'..dan kecewa..

Perkara ini telah berlaku beberapa kali semenjak saya berpindah ke sini..dan sementelaah..anak2 saya yang dahulunya bersekolah disini..

Pagi itu saya merasa sangat teruja untuk berjumpa dengan guru kelas anak saya..bagi membincangkan prestasi, keadaan dsbnya...namapun hari terbuka....surat juga telah diedarkan kepada anak saya seawal 2 minggu....antara lain kandungan...

"bagi tuan puan berbincang mengenai prestasi pelajar...."..

Tetapi bila sampai di kelas...guru kelas tidak dapat hadir..jadi yang saya dapat jumpa hanya cikgu ganti...

("Nak tanya ape dengan cikgu ganti?..."kata hati)

Jesturu saya beranikan diri untuk bertanya...tentang anak saya..

Cikgu ganti :"Maaf Puan, saya guru ganti...bidan terjun..saya tak boleh beri komen tentang anak puan..yang saya boleh komen tentang satu pelajaran saje...yang saya ajar"

Saya:...Laa....habis tu..dtg tandatangan, serah buku 'adab belajar' dan bayaran yuran...tu je lah...
( dan saya sampaikan perasaan kecewa saya kepada guru tersebut..guru hanya tersenyum sinis!)...bagaimana tentang matapelajaran anak saya yang agak lemah???

Ape la....( saya tidak puas hati!)....#@33335%%6&!~~~"''***&&&@###:(

Atau saya sahaja yang teruja..guru kelas anak saya ade hal lain yang lebih penting!!!grrr....

PPSMI

..Yeay..Hip- Hip ..Hooray.....

As a mum to a bunch of kids...the above topic has been close to my heart..ever since being a stay-at-home mum......There were times..when my spirit was high..I wd come up with few ideas, strategies..etc..but again..implementation???(yeap.I am questioning myself...again..)..Allah knows best!

To my kids..( 2009- std one, std three, form two and form three..).come 2012..whomever concern...year one..year four..form one..form four..all the best....study hard..study smart...

To Baby Mikhael...kita ade beberapa koleksi buku matapelajaran Sains dan Matematik dalam Bahasa Melayu (mungkin ade banyak lagi tapi baru bulan lepas mama kumpul dan jual kepada surat khabar lama...emm..ingatkan takkan perlu lagi buku versi bahasa melayu..)dan Inggeris..pilih..pilih....( Oooiii..ayah..tapi silabus mungkin berubah....makanya...kita perlukan kecairan modal di sini...)

Nice weekend you all..USAHA*DOA*TAWAKKAL....

p/s:..Writer just celebrated her recent 41th Bday..Alhamdulillah...

Saya gembira kalau anak saya faham dengan mata pelajaran Sains dan Matematik..itu yang penting!...anak2 seperti menjadi bahan ujian..(itu pandangan saya..)..seperti juga anak saya yang belajar di sekolah seni....

Peperiksaan dan sesuatu yang gusar..

Oooo...ambik masa sket dari kerja2 rumah....

Malam ini..(setelah berbincang serba sedikit tentang ape yang nak dilukis untuk periksa subjek seni esok)..anak2 saya tidor lena...letih sepanjang musim peperiksaan..agaknya.....

Dan terus terang saya juga keletihan...ingin saja menjerit ke sekian alam....ooo..Tuhan...usahaku tidak setinggi mana...harapan dan perancangan tidak dapat direalisasi sepenunnya...(sedikit kecewa kerana ayah tidak berada di paras yang sama dalam memerhati anak2 membuat latih tubi...barangkali ayah punyai sebabnya yang lebih 'prioriti'...saya akur...)

Berbicara tentang 'prioriti'..saya suka merujuk kepada bait-bait penulisan, huraian dan penerangan Prof Yusuf AlQardawi..melalui bukunya 'Memahami Keutamaan'...

Gusar dari sudut mana?..Entah ?...tapi yang saya pasti..anak2 seperti tidak tahu ape yang hendak di ulangkaji jika tidak dipimpin..sampai bila?..pasti saje saya teringat zaman sekolah..tidak ade sesiapa yang memimpin..habis buku tulis..buku teks saya baca..mungkin arwah ayah ade sesekali menjenguk..dan arwah emak meninjau-ninjau..tapi nyata untuk keputusan2 yang saya perolehi sepanjang zaman persekolahan..saya pasti tiada siapa yg akan menolong ..kecuali diri sendiri..kenapa agaknya?..atau saya yang memanjakan mereka...?..

Paling klimak kegusaran ini apabila menunggu anak saya M3 menyelesaikan masaalah kira-kira..iya untuk anak saya M4..dia ade tahap keyakinan yang tinggi..mungkin juga dia fokus di kelas..(alhamdulillah..) lalu dia saya biarkan tidor awal...manakala M3..masih lagi terkial-kial..saya buntu...saya belek buku teks..buku aktibiti..buku tulis...seperti ade jawapan ..Terus terang saya seperti tidak menyukai cara penyampaian...silabus..mungkin...saya tidak tahu apakah saya sorang merasa demikian..saya mula menjiwai ...menyusuri mereka2 yang mungkin ada anak seperti anak saya..yang tidak berapa laju...dalam menguasai bahasa inggeris..lalu menyelesaikan masalah matematik..menjadi beban...saya kira malam tadi saya banyak bersabar...saya pasrah!..

Kekadang saya reingat pada peristiwa M3 jatuh tangga hingga terpaksa berjahit dahi..ade kesankah di situ pada tahap konsentrasinya...(kerana saya juga pernah jatuh ..berjahit juga dahi.)..

Ssaya juga teringat tatkala M3 sakit telinga dan kami terpaksa membawanya bertemu pakar telinga..dan apabila ujian sound dibuat pada telinga kanan..dia hanya boleh menangkap bunyi 95-98%..adakah ini mengganggu juga...Saya bersangka baik dengan Allah..pada banyak tragedi hidup...

.

Saya tidak ade ilmu khas di dalam bidang perguruan...(saya mungkin pernah bercita-cita menjadi guru...tapi banyak kali permohonan untuk KPLI atau DipEd...ditolak.maka saya rase..saya tidak ditakdirkan menjadi pendidik secara formal!..lalu saya cuba bidang audit dan akaun..dan saya jalan terus ..sehingga saya keletihan dengan pelbagai cabaran..saya lemah dengan 'multi tasking'!)

Ssaya ajar anak saya seperti mana saya belajar dulu..mungkinkah perlu pada teknik baru...zaman sudah berubah?...saya lihat anak saya juga lemah dalam membuat ayat yang mudah..baik bahasa ibunda..apetah lagi B.INggeris...tidak cukup latihan..tidak cukup latihan....(di sekolah..di rumah...) akhirnya itu yang saya temui sebagai jawapan...dan saya akan pastikan berlaku pada hari-hari mendatang...insya'Allah...

Untuk anak2 saya yang telah bersekolah menengah yang tinggal di asrama...hanya doa yang saya dapat sisipkan...cubalah berusaha bersungguh-sungguh..walupun tanpa pemantauan..mama berharap kalian tahu tugas sebagai seorang pelajar...sebagai seorang anak bangsa..sebagai seorang muslim sejati...

Dan anak-anakku..perjalanananmu masih panjang....pandai-pandailah membawa diri..jika diditakdirkan hayat kita berpisah awal...kerana..mama tidak akan selalu dapat membantu..usahalah...ikhtiarlah..berdoalah..sesungguhnya..Allah pasti mengangkat derjat orang2 berilmu ketempat yang lebih tinggi...

Hair Saloon with Kids..

I stopped going to the hair saloon looonggg.ago....I think last one was when I was in form four kot..sesaje mengada nak kerintin rambut...and it took ages..sampai tertido2..that time..harganya..mungkin less than RM50..kot..dah tak ingat bape..tapi terbang jugaklah duit my late dad....

And it was not the first either...seingatnya..mase kecik2 selalu temankan my late mum gi kedai cina kat Sembawang, woodlands...kerintin, buat rambut dsbnya..especially kalu mlm tu ada party..at Navy Mess...( Jgn tak caya..my mum had once won 'the most glam woman'..and of coz my dad..hidung kembang setaman..)..Kekadang oleh kirana lama sgt my mum wd ask the lady to perm my hair also....rela dalam paksa!..hehe!..kenangan lama..

After that..its either I let my hair long atau guntin sendiri..(percaya atau dak?....)...Why susah?..You only need two mirrors, a sharp scissors, few sepit rambut....snip..snip....never mind..the tinggi rendah..after all..if I wanna go out..nobody knows what....only my hubby and kids..(and siblings...mak su was always the one to notice pun!..)..selalunye deap kata..wokey je!!(..emmm mengampu la tuh!).

But I wanted to tell this incident..it happened last school holidays...eh!..why sikalang mau cerita...eemm..mungkin sebab...perasaan hancus itu dah hilang kot...plus today..my feelings inside is a bit grumpy....so to heal..I feel like writing la pulak...nak keluar shop tak dak bajet!

Why grumpy? I cook but ayah said dah makan..habis tu sape nak makan lauk lebih tu..welll..dileema for me..a stay-home-mum..at least have the courtesy to inform lah kan...normally bf 6 I wd make sure..dinner is ready..kekadang beli je kat pasar mlm...yang penting ade food on the table..becoz I prefer to bathe and get clean before Maghrib...lepas Maghrib..kids must makan...and baca buku..or homework..ape-ape....jelah...I set my own timetable..becoz by nine..I wd prefer just lazy around...bf my boy..and doz offf....or perhaps...internet time...(..pagi tadi tergolek lauk kari dan sayur...teringat mlm semalam..Sarah mengecek nak tambah lauk..tapi aku kata..isshh..simpan sket untuk ayah..tapi rupenya si ayah tak heran pun ngan lauk kari tu..sapa tak grrrrr....isssh!!..jahat!..tak mau kawan!.( and Yang..if you read this..it was not the first time...you know it...and you know I seribu kali memang tak suka..tak suka...selalu buat kita.........hari ini cam nak balas dendam!!!.nanti kau!..haha!..me so evil?...do you I think I dare?..takut tak mencium bau syurga...)

Di telan mati emak

Di luah mati bapak!!!!

I might as well write..lagi pulak si teruna itu tidor....syukur alhamdulillah...heaven!!

O yes..pasal hair saloon tu..

Yeah...that morning...after I got my monthly allowance fr my banker..(who else?.)..I thot..lets bring kids to a hair do today... sch hols treat la kunun..

The 6 of us melilau carik kedai gunting..dari Rawang..sejauh ke SUngai Buloh...( pi Sg buuloh shopping compleks sebab my eldest nak carik tudung and si KNgah nak cari uniform..kawat kaki..etc...)..penant jugak..dah le dukung siteruna itu..then drove back to Rawang..singgah le kat Country HOme...saw a hair saloon...ok..

In we went...greated by a fine lady.."..oo..mau gunting ka kakak?.."

Berapa gunting?

Rm11...so I sangka ok lah..untuk 4 orang..

I sat in one corner...lullaby my boy...time and again tengok all my angles duduk kat kerusi..stand by

Then nyonya tu tanya:.."kak..mau cuci?"

Berapa cuci?

RM13...(oo.oo..ok...skali gunting and cuci..murah gak tu...so I agreed)..

The girls enjoyed being massaged, shampooed...etc..

Nyonya tanye lagi..."kak, rambut kering..kasi minyak dan blow juger?

Berapa tu?

RM4...( o..ok jugak..so I agreed..)

Nyonya lagi...:"Kak, in shampoo utuk kelimumur, bagus untuk anak akak, guna shampoo ni?

Ok...

Then nyonya lagi..:"Kak, ini ade kutu sket..kasi steam, special shampoo...?"

Berapa?

RM 38 untk steam....( I thought the price include sekali gunting and shampoo....so Iagreed..?

And everybody was happy..half and hour jugak kat situ...

Masa nak bayar....cube teka berapa....

No negotiation...shampoo special kena beli (rm35)..sebab dah guna...gunting, cuci, blow, steam, tratment..semua lain-lain harga...Not 2 in one ..etc...

Alamak!!!

Almost RM200.....Is my maths that terrible?...So idiot me? kena tipu kah?..atau aku tak faham nyonya tuh!...sumpah lepas ni...no more visit to kedai rambut nyonya!

Nak marah kat siapa?....bayar je lah terkulat2....( dalam hati rase sannggggggaaattt marah dan terkilan....)..

All girls looked at me....

Mama: "Tak pe lah Yang....best tak..satu hari di kedai gunting rambut?

All replied....Beeesssssstt!!

Do I need to complain then?...Dear Yang...Ampun maaf..A big Mistake..

Malam tu tak tido lena..I lost my allowance cam tu jer..baru bulan lepas ingat nak beli selipar baru..and ingat nak savings sket..kot-kot buleh treat my kids to a special dinner some where..eeemmm...hampeh!!

Lepas tu ikat perut 2 minggu..sardin and telor terkulat-kulat....Law of Economics....Opportunity of Cost...( Kos melepas...in Malay!!)

I abhor the nyonya kedai this mucchhh!!! later when I relay the story to my sister..( who loves to go to hair do...)..Mak su kate..." Kak...dia kelentong akak..."...

p/s:...tapi ade rase cam nak kerintin rambut lately...and kasi 'kaler' sket..kunun nak tutup grey hair....eemmmm...sape nak tulung?...Mana bule buat sendiri kan!

Nice Day you all!..Hope you hae a productie week ahead..and jgn sekali2 blur cam I...pi kedai kena kelentong!

Yang nak diceritakan...

Nak tulis musti ade mood...ade perasaan...( quoting kata2 penulis buku biodata Jeanne - Isteri PM..I saw this in a slot of Wanita Hari ini...)

Tapi ini bukan biodata....

Ini kesah hidup seharian, harapan, impian dan curahan perasaan...berkongsi rasa..dan cerita buat yg sudi mendengar dan berkomunikasi

ape..ape lah...

Friday, 27 Mac 2009, 710pm ( hopefully this one get posted...)

and before I forget....Alfatihah to Allahyarham Zubir Ali...( used to be my fav singer esp when he was with...Harmoni, then He joined R.A.P and Ikhlas Tapi Jauh was once music to my ears too...)..Penantian is my evergreen..enjoy listening...

############################

So the school break has ended....( tipu lah kalu aku tak miss anak-anak yg 2 orang tu....really..when they go away..they took away a piece of me too....Salam KMun And KMas..Kenang Mama dalam doa kalian...)left me ..alone again inthe house..during weekdays..with my baby boy...


Sigh..I went to the clinic today..got few medicines for baby...poor him..has been coughing for the past 3 days...his voice now is quite husky....






(Baby..baru lepas mandi daa..)




as I am writing this..I just put him to bed....lullaby love....be a good boy..becz mama is certainly in the mood of writing..




(Baby yawning away....)


Well...reminiscing back few things ...

1. M1 is busy at my old school's field....training 'lontar peluru' for her coming mssj...and she did call mentioning..she actually saw the green block..he..he...( but so busy with sports....how's preparation for pmr?)







(On the right : Kakak Mun with boy...bedak sejuk time....during last school hols..p/s:...baby cam tak suka je..dicomot-comotkan..hihi...rashes la sayang oii..))





2. M2 is adjusting her new life with her new specs....poor her....she had complaint time and again of her eyesight..and her teacher (during last parent/teache meeting)..that she was always seen sleeping in the class....o..o.. was is becoz of her eyesight....bila rabun....tak leh fokus..tidoq je...



(At the right KMas trying out a cartoon cermin mata - entah mana dia korek dari bakul mainan Maryam....just to get a feeling camana rupa kalu pakai kacamata...hihi!)



But now, no excuse (At the left : KMas enjoying her layang2 session with ayah at pantai Jeram before curfue time of her asrama...)



ok..K.mas....hopefully u cd adjust well....and is it true that..rabun boleh dikaitkan dengan keturunan....oopss..sorry ayah...jgn kecik hati eh!!!...but I told Mas, it's not easy wearing specs around....among others..some people tend to forget the whereabout of their specs....eg: Ayah: "..Eh!..ade nampak cermin mata kita?".....( manalah kita nak tau...where u people put ur glasses..)..all the best dear...muga2 ade improvement to ur well being..

3.
M3 came back just now : " Mama, Sarah kena berdiri luar kelas tadi..."..
mama:" huh?..kenapa?"
m3: "Sarah terlupa bawak kertas jawapan periksa Bm Penulisan...tapi Sarah rasa dah letak dlm beg mlm tadi..."
And mama just remembered few minutes before her school bus came this afternoon..I had taken the paper out fr her bag...without telling her...becoz last night I was too tired and sleepy to go thru the answer with her..so I thought I wd do that this afternoon..alamak....mama too efficient???
Mama: "..REal sorry Sarah...mama bawak keluar tadi..lupa nak ckp ngan Sarah..."
m3:.."Alaaaa..mama..ni...."...
And we hugged each other..I saw tears in her eyes..( she probably ashamed just now at her school..)..and I promised to her that I wd never do that again....even kalu habuk korek pensel pun..mama akan beritau Sarah ok...

4. m4 was sick last week.....coughed...sore throat..(agaknya ...sebab tu ..baby terkena batuk this week lak...)...but she came back this week..scored A for all her test..Alhamdulillah...and she came back just now also..feeling angry and confused of her school time table..
m4: :Mama, Iyam pelik la....kenapa Harini pun ade tasmiq...balik 630ptg....?"
SO mama said..." Kan Iyam yg bagi mama surat dr cikgu semalam...starting yesterday...djh1 balik kol 630..."
I guess..she was just tired......selalu benar tertidor dlm bas sekolah...mujur pakcik bas..sabar nak tunggu dia terkedek-kedek turun dr bas...

Those were few things happening to my kids...


(latest pic of baby and moi..on the way to G**bak Medical Centre...follow up appt with My gynae and baby doc...injection for 3 mth's old laa....)



AS for me...managed to get a few pills+pain killer+ calcium for my sakit lutut/radang sendi.....well..doctor kata..it cd be arthritis .......Also...I am yet to learn all about pelvic floor mucsle...cause of its injury and weakening....( mind u..after this 5th childbirth....something is just not right there..I regret a bit for not going to my fav gynae this time around...at Amp*** Pu****)......any specific remedy my friend.??..the kegel exercise took me ages laaaaa....ape tu...kayu serapt la..majakani la...binari la...what do u think?
