skrg ni musim budak2 masuk asrama
everytime aku dgr one of my cousins masuk asrama, aku sure tringat time2 aku dulu
1st night i cried. aku ni tak manja ngan parents and bole di-catogerykan as independent la jugak tapi still rasa sedih bila duk jauh dari parents. so, i cannot imagine mcmana la yg manja2 tu.
my sister in law duk asrama 2 minggu, then balik ke rumah balik
before ada anak, aku rasa benda tu ridiculous giler.
tapi bila dah ada ni... make sense jugak napa the parents willing to let her home again. even though she was in Johor. in that two weeks, god knows how many times my in-laws went there.
it is sooo crazy....
i am reading this book about parenting by John D Gray. "Children are from heaven"
basically kid has 4 major temperemants, active, responsive, sensitive and one more i always forgot. anyways, he explains how to deal with each temperaments. really an eye-opening.
and very usefuls too. there are different techniques to deal with kids tantrums, how to lessen their resistance. he likes to use the word resistance a lot. how to balance between hard-love and soft-love parenting. what to say and all. i cannot really remember how my parents treated me as a child. my mom too busy with my younger siblings and my dad so busy getting enough money to survive. i cannot blame either one of them. i think i turned out great anyways. even though i am not a genius, i'm able to think. and i always have enough even though i am the bread-winner and my husband is still studying. all in all, everything is great and i am gratefull to Allah for all that he has given me all this while...... :) this is one of the days when i am feeling serreeennnee... not sure why. maybe my PMS days have passed and my hormone will rage again in the next few days...

i just came back from a finance course
initially i always thought that finance is such a boring thing... actually i still think it is
but now i see it in a very different view. it teach me a little on how to be a business woman
i know i would never start my own business
too stressful. my life is stressfull as it is and i dont need to make it worst
that course has taught me how to manage my money more efficiently.
it is not wise to save all your money. u should keep some for security and the extra we should combine it with some loan and do a little investment like in property. i am yet to have extra... all my money as of now is just enough for security... god willing, my managers are kind enough not to give me penalty for this year performance, i should get a bonus. provided that i am not expecting again (the 1st one is accidental) and not buying any property and my husband did not coax me to buy something expensive... the bonus should cover for any emergency and i will have extra.... so... maybe i can cook something up.
since my social life is diminishing right now... i think i have lots of time to do things for myself.
i am trying my best not to feel obligated to help out my MIL.
since aku menumpang, and since little i was taught that when people give something to u it is definitely not free, we must return something back... even with family, i always fell obligated to do something like clean up the kitchen, washing the dishes, lipat kain etc etc
sounds simple, but it does require my time and i can use the time to sleeppppp
i am sleep deprived. i tried giving my son formula milk at night coz i thought feeding through bottle is much faster. but it is actually easier to just give my breast coz he can fall to sleep faster.
i am trying to be a good mom. i try to handle my son gently but gentle is not in my vocabulary. i am reckless and there were times when i am endangering my son.... i really hope i can change this before something really bad happens... i wish god nothing bad will happen.

aku cuti hari ni.... yeayyyyyy
chinese new year, aku lak yg beriya iya cuti
1 feb federal day... and amik 3 hari cuti... dapat 10 hari kat rumah.... so... rasa berbaloi giler
dapat spend lebih masa skit ngan anak
sayang anak ni sgt berbeza ngan sayang benda2 lain
mcm org kata sanggup buat apa2 jerla
kalau aku tgk kakak2 aku yg garang giler ngan anak diorg pun, kalau dia benda2 tak elok jadi kat anak diorg sure risau giler... tak kirala emak tu camner.. aku rasa kalau dah namanyer anak tu, sure syg giler

alhamdullilah, aku masih berjaya bagi anak aku susu badan
walaupun letih nak pam 3 kali kat office... rasanyer bebaloi bila tgk anak sihat
and tau yg kita dpt beri yg terbaik utk anak
susu dari badan kita yg khas utk dia mmg tak dpt nak dibeli di mana2
insyallah akan aku gagahkan diri bagi dia susu badan sampai at least 6 bulan.
