3 More days to GO!

Women have strengths that amaze men.
They bear hardships and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up to injustice.
They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.
They go without so their family can have.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally.
They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards.
They are happy when they hear about a birth or a wedding.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.
They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you.
The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning.
They bring joy, hope and love.
They have compassion and ideals.
They give moral support to their family and friends.
Women have vital things to say and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,
IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

4 More Days to Go Home!

4 more days and we are getting very busy and excited. There are so many things to do.

My last internet access will be on Thursday morning. I know you are going to miss me. Don't be sad. I will go online as soon as I have settled down. Please keep those messages coming.

The boys last day of school is on Friday. But as the packers will be coming on that day, I will be going to the boys' school on Thursday to meet their teachers and to collect their school work.

My tenant in Singapore will be moving out on Friday and my sister is helping me out with the handover.

The boys will be going to Tampines North Primary School (thanks to MOE for their help). I have sent email to the Principal asking them for used text-books for my kids and to advise me on other matters pertaining to the boys’ admission to the school. It’s not that I do not want to buy new textbooks but it is already July and we are on Term 3 now. So buying new books especially for Pri 1 would be a waste. I do not mind getting new books for Pri 3 (if the school does not have any used textbooks in their keeping) as Azirul will be able to use them in 2 years time.

Well, Bro Yaslam was kind enough to help and advise me matters on school, tuition and religious class for the boys. He is also checking if he has extra used textbooks for Pri 3 for my son to use. Thanks a lot, Bro. Really appreciate your help.

In the meantime, I would just have to wait for the school to reply me.

Saturday and Sunday were our last weekend in Penang.

On Saturday, St. Christopher’s International Primary School had an International Food and Fun Fair. We went to the school at 5.00pm, despite the heavy rain. Amirul and his classmates performed an Indian Dance. After which, the boys played games and did some sand crafts.

Later in the evening, we went to Ferringhi for dinner at the Kampung Restaurant. We went to Eden Seafood Restaurant to have dessert and to watch the Culture Show but by the time we got there, we only managed to watch the last 2 performances. But the boys were more excited to have the dessert than watching the show.

On Sunday, dropped by my Ustazah's house to pass her the cheesecake that I’ve made for her before going for our usual brunch. She had also passed me a book on Tajwid. So nice of her.
After brunch we went to KOMTAR to buy some jerseys for my brother-in-law. Most of the jerseys that he wanted were sold out. Original Jerseys or not, all are gone.
After dinner, hubby and I went out to buy durians. This will be our last durian treat.

(will post the photos that we took on Saturday when I have the time)...

7 More days to Go!

More items need to be packed but we are running out of boxes. I’ve called the mover but they do not have enough boxes in their stock at the moment. Again, they insisted that we let them do the packing. Arrghhh.. I have to keep telling them that we will let them do the packing on the big items and the small ones, we will do it. We know how to do it and we will do it according to our preference.


From our experience, the movers would simply throw everything in the boxes and don’t bother to arrange it properly. I mean, they do not have the time to do it nicely for you. We have a whole shelf of encyclopedias and they go by their indexes and we do not want to mess them up! And just because we are so adamant about doing our on packing, they simply refused to help us get more boxes. Have to wait till the packing day itself! I cannot simply wait for 7 more days! Damn!


Ok… relax Lyndy, relax… don’t get so uptight. Hehe… I am so stress right now.

Taking A Break From BOXINGs

Got this email from a friend... let me share it with you....

Johnny wanted to have sex with a girl in his office..... but she had a boyfriend...
One day Johnny got so frustrated that he went up to her and said
" I'll give you a $1000 dollars if you let me screw you".... but the girl said "NO".
Johnny said "I'll be fast, I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend down,
I'll be finished by the time you pick it up."
She thought for a moment and said that she would have to consult her boyfriend.

So she called her boyfriend and told him the story.
Her boyfriend says "Ask him for $2000 dollars, pick up the money very fast,he won't even be able to get his pants down.
So she agrees and accepts the proposal. Half an hour goes by and theboyfriend is waiting for his girlfriend to call.

Finally after 45mins,the boyfriend calls and asks what happened.
She said "The bastard used coins!!"

NINE! NINE more days to go!

When you change the way you look at things
The things you look at change
I can see the world so differently
Seeing things your way
There's a path that's right in front of me
That's been calling me for days
And I know that when you walk with me
It will be for always

You give me ev
erything I have
Ev
ery
thing I need
You are the reason why I believe
All my love
I w
anna
give to you all my life
I w
anna
see you in my dreams
You opened up my eyes to a world I have never seen
I'm coming home

When I see the way the early dawn drives the night away
To reveal a world that's holding on to see a brighter day
I can only hope for ev
ery
one to feel the way I do
Live their life to love someone the way I love you

You give me ev
ery
thing I have
Ev
ery
thing I need
You are the reason why I believe
All my love
I w
anna
give to you all my life
I w
anna
see you in my dreams
You opened up my eyes to a world I have never seen
For always I will remain faithful to the faith you have in me
Can't believe how much I have grown with you
I'm finally coming home

Through you I see the light that will take me home
All the days of my life

For always I will remain faithful to the faith you have in me
Can't believe how much I have grown with you
I'm finally coming home

I'm coming home
