SYMPTOMS OF PREGNANCY

First of all I like to congratulating myself for being PREGNANT AGAIN(huh....perasan tul tapi takpelah....everey bodee saaayyyy...CONGRATULATIONS TO ME!! as I'm expecting for my 3rd baby (hopefully it's a gurl) - really hope! ALHAMDULILLAH....

early signs and symptoms of pregnancy




The first indication most women have that they might be pregnant is missing a period. However there are many signs of pregnancy. Not all women experience all of these signs. But if you have been trying for a baby and you experience any of these symptoms, buy a home pregnancy test to see if your suspicions are correct. Then it's a good idea to go and see your doctor or midwife to have the pregnancy confirmed.

monthly periods stop

The first hint that most women have that they might be pregnant is that they miss their monthly period. However, many women do not have regular menstrual cycles, and even those women whose cycles are generally regular can have late or missed periods, without being pregnant. Stress, tiredness and stopping the oral contraceptive pill can disrupt the menstrual cycle. Trying for a baby can be very stressful indeed - and also tiring - so even if your period is a couple of weeks overdue it isn't a guarantee of pregnancy.



morning sickness

After a missed period, morning sickness is the next most obvious sign most women have that they are pregnant. Not all women experience morning sickness during pregnancy, but between half and two-thirds do. Those that do experience it usually begin feeling nauseous within 2 weeks to 2 months of conception. Luckily, morning sickness rarely lasts the entire length of the pregnancy, and usually goes away once the pregnancy reaches three or four months.

Although called morning sickness, symptoms of nausea related to pregnancy can occur at any time of the day. While some women just feel sick, others actually vomit.

There are many theories about what actually causes morning sickness. Some doctors think that morning sickness is prompted by the changes that occur in the body during pregnancy, which affect hormone levels, blood pressure and the digestive system. But whatever the cause of morning sickness, be assured that while it may make you feel quite rough, it will not harm your developing baby.


tender or swollen breasts

When you are pregnant, your breasts will become larger and may feel tender. You may also notice darkening of the nipples. These changes are your body preparing for breastfeeding once the baby is born. You may notice these changes in your breasts as early as the first month of pregnancy.



tiredness

During the first few months of pregnancy you may feel tired and extremely sleepy. You feel tired because the baby is growing rapidly inside you and your body has to adjust to this.


weight gain

As the baby grows, so will you. Obviously you will notice that your belly swells as the baby develops in the womb, but weight gain is not just limited here. You are storing fat to prepare for after the birth when you will be breastfeeding.


backache

An aching back is common during pregnancy and can begin at any time. The pain is a response to the redistribution of weight in your body. The weight of the developing baby in the womb puts stress on your back.

food cravings

Many women have cravings for odd foods when they are pregnant. You may find yourself craving something that you do not normally like, such as pickles. Alternatively you may find yourself wanting to eat odd combinations of food, for example, banana and bacon sandwiches. If you become pregnant again, you are likely to find that your food cravings are different each time. Some women also find that they have a slightly metallic taste in their mouth during early pregnancy.


frequent urination

Within 2 to 3 months of becoming pregnant you will probably find that you need to go to the toilet far more often than usual. This is because your growing baby is squashing your bladder, and because the size of the bladder does not increase during pregnancy, you may sometimes find that you need to urinate urgently. It is therefore a good idea to plan ahead when travelling or going on outings to make sure you know where the toilets are if you need them.



blocked nose and sinuses

Some women find that they have a 'stuffy' nose during early pregnancy, sometimes even before they have missed a period. This is because the hormone changes in your body brought about by pregnancy affect mucus production in your nose and sinuses.

Although not all women experience all these signs, they are a good indicator that changes are taking place in your body. So think about getting a test and hope for good news!

Synopsis: Adam & Hawa


AIN HAWANI, zaman solonya ternoktah pada usia remaja. Hanya kerana silap perhitungan, timbul prasangka buruk, menyebabkan dia dan Adam Mukhriz terjerat. Rayuannya tidak dipedulikan. Lelaki itu pula diam membisu, seolah-olah benar apa yang berlaku. Akhirnya, ijab kabul antara mereka terlafaz dalam paksa dan tanpa rela.

Sayangnya, hubungan suami isteri ini hanya tertulis di atas kertas sahaja. Ain yang kecewa, pergi jauh mencari harga diri. Adam yang ditinggalkan, menghitung hari-hari nan sepi. Setiap saat rindunya terus melimpah. Namun Ain tidak pernah berpaling melihat cinta yang mekar di hatinya. Ah... Adam pasrah! Semua itu salahnya kerana tidak berani memaknakan kata-kata.

Setelah lapan tahun pergi dan menanti, Ain dan Adam dipertemukan di depan pintu Majidilharam. Bagi Adam, kebetulan ini memang didoakan sekian lama. Ain pula terus membenci dan menganggap ikatan mereka sudah terputus. Hanya lafaz Adam yang ditunggu.

Tapi tegarkah Ain? Sejak pertemuan itu, hati Ain berbolak-balik. Nafasnya bagai berombak, perasaannya jadi gementar dan hidupnya sudah tidak keruan hanya kerana Adam. Benarkah dalam hati ada cinta? Tapi keegoannya cuba menidakkan. Ingin diluah, mulut tak terkata. Ingin disimpan hati tak tertanggung.

Bagi Adam, dia tetap menanti Hawanya biarpun lapan tahun lagi...

Waris Jari Hantu : Keeper of Mystical Tiger

Shuhaimi Baba told actress Azean Irdawaty the story of Waris Jari Hantu when she was directing the latter in the film, Layar Lara, back in 1997. Shuhaimi has been biding time since then – when all parties are able to accept storylines bordering on mysticism and spirituality – before she started on the script.

Not too long ago, the censorship board relaxed its ruling and allowed horror films such as Pontianak Harum Sundal Malam, Mistik and Gong to be made.

Waris Jari Hantu revolves around an ageing Tok Wan (Azean Irdawaty) living in the small village of Mendekar. She also happens to be the custodian of a mystical tiger, which she keeps to protect her family members. She is trying to find an heir to be the next generation’s keeper of the spirit. However, nobody in Tok Wan’s immediate clan is willing to shoulder the heavy responsibility.

Jari Hantu also looks at the relationship between two very different individuals, Tina (Maya Karin) and Ari (Rusdi Ramli).




Tok Wan (Azean Irdawaty) watches over the members of her clan in Waris Jari Hantu.
The title of the film refers to the middle finger that Tok Wan wears her ring, which holds the key to the spirit.

During a press conference to launch the official website of Waris Jari Hantu (www.warisjarihantu.com), Shuhaimi said: “I know some folks who are custodians of these spiritual tigers (saka harimau) and I myself a Minang descent have heard of such stories from family members. I wrote this particular story on behalf of a friend who asked me to make a movie based on it.”

According to her, Waris is a mix of various genre – besides the supernatural element, the film touches on family and love.

“The film shows that love can make a person strong and face all kinds of obstacles. It also looks at the youth of today who have a very different way of life from their elders. They may not necessarily want to follow in the footsteps of their elders.”

Researching for the material proved to be difficult as the stories of these animals’ spirits are told by word of mouth. Her research, however, led her to talk to the older generation and younger custodians. Admittedly, Shuhaimi exercised her creative licence to fill in the blanks.

For the role, Azean learned to speak like a Minang from the locals and watched documentaries on tigers to observe their movements and behaviour.

She would then try to imitate the tigers at home when everyone is asleep. By the time cameras rolled, she was ready for action. Nonetheless, near the end of the shoot, Azean was taken ill and had to be hospitalised.

Azean also found out from custodians of various animal spirits on what to feed these spirits, the proper way to feed them the verses needed to call them.



Tina (Maya Karin) slowly falls in love with her best friend, Ari (Rusdi Ramli), in Waris Jari Hantu.
Azean said: “A long time ago, people were responsible for their own safety. Many family members had to find a way to protect their family and their property from all sorts of danger. Tiger is just one of the spirits called to protect the family.

“My character in the film is dying so it is crucial she finds an heir to be the keeper of the spirit. Since my character keeps a female spirit, the heir must also be a female and she must also agree to be the new custodian for the transfer to happen.”

Azean was not the only one who was challenged in this film. The hardest thing for actor Rusdi was playing an effeminate man. Although he has tackled such a role in a drama series, the thought of being in character during rehearsal and shooting of the film proved to be quite daunting. So much so, he jokingly told the crew to punch him if he behaved the same way after the film had wrapped.

“I hesitated only because I was worried that my little son would be confused when he sees me in this film. But I have known feminine men all my life as a lot of my mother’s friends and my friends are such,” said Rusdi who had Fatimah Abu Bakar as his acting coach.

Shuhaimi added: “We didn’t allow him to watch other films with effeminate characters as we didn’t want him to merely copy their mannerisms. We wanted him to find Ari on his own as the film takes a lot of the actor’s emotions.”

Various locations served as backdrops to the film, including Bahau in Negri Sembilan, Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Perak.

Although the film features a well-known cast that worked well together, the “actors” that were difficult to work with were the four tigers from Perak’s wildlife sanctuary.

“We had to wait around for them to ‘act’,” quipped Shuhaimi.

These tigers were filmed for the purpose of special effects whereby their faces will be superimposed on the actors’ faces. Waris is budgeted at a modest RM1.6mil and is set for release in April next year

TIPS HOW TO STAY YOUNG



HAVE U ALL LAUGHED TODAY?

I wish I cud have more time wit all of u ;-)

The info below is priceless. Enjoy.



HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height.
Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.

2. Keep only cheerful friends.
The grouches pull you down. (keep this In mind if you are one of those grouches;)


3. Keep learning:
Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening,
whatever. Never let the brain get idle.
"An idle mind is the devil's workshop."
And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!


4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and Lots of time with HIM/HER.


6. The tears happen:
Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself. LIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love:
Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever.
Your home is your refuge.


8. Cherish your health:
If it is good, preserve it.
If it is unstable, improve it.
If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don't take guilt trips.
Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.


10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

And if you don't send this to at least four people - who cares?
But do share this with someone.

Chermin



Chermin is a horror/suspense thriller about a woman who is haunted by a vengeful spirit trapped in an antique mirror.



The plot centers on Nasrin, whose face has been disfigured from a ‘mysterious’ car accident. When her mother discovers an antique mirror hidden amongst old family heirlooms, Nasrin finds herself strangely drawn to it.

Nasrin’s fascination with the mirror turns into obsession and she starts taking on the persona of the mirror spirit, Mastura. On her quest to regain her past beauty, Nasrin submits herself to the mirror spirit by satisfying the mirror’s need for blood and revenge.



Will she be able to sacrifice love for vanity? Is she able to look inside herself and see the beauty within?

Or is what is reflected in her heart a shadow of the mirror?

Chermin is a first feature film of writer/director Zarina Abdullah. The film is financed by the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage fund.

The Red Kebaya and Possessed



In case you're wondering, a "kebaya" is a traditional Malay dress. The Red Kebaya, a polished-looking production, which opens in Malaysia on Nov 23, has a peculiar storyline that involves some kind of "time-travelling".

The synopsis from the official website reads: "Latiff, a famous but lonely photographer who was orphaned as a small child, sets out on an expedition to photograph abandoned houses around Malaysia. On his journey, he is haunted by images and sounds that remind him of his traumatic childhood. At one particular house on the island of Penang, he is transported back through time to witness the shocking events that took place in the house over 50 years ago. Through his experience, Latiff understands the tragic circumstances that led to him being orphaned, and also finds an old friend."

From the trailer, it looks like the story involves an English couple an a joget dancehall girl. Interesting.

Directed by British filmmaker Oliver Knott, the film stars the very fetching Vanida Imran (the one in the poster), Ramli Hassan, Samantha Schubert (Knott's wife) and Bob Mercer.

Meanwhile, Possessed, the second feature film by Bjarne Wong, will be released in Malaysia and China on Nov 30. The horor film, which stars Malaysian supermodel Amber Chia and Korean transexual star Harisu, will also be released in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand and Singapore.

Chia plays a supermodel who loses her memory in China, and returns to Malaysia with her boyfriends to look for her missing sister. Once back home, she begins to experience nightmares and has visions of her sister's spirit.

There is no official trailer yet, except for one on YouTube that is linked to a blog and has Harisu's name mispelled as "Hirasu" which, to me, means "Let's wait for an official trailer!"

The Red Kebaya in English and Malay while Possessed is in Mandarin.

SALAM LEBARAN



Sila click laman ini : http://202.71.107.161/petronas/bm/tvc2.asp

SALAM Lebaran buat Semua Umat Islam yang merayakannya di seluruh dunia tak kira dimana jua anda berada. Dikesempatan ini saya ingin menyusun sepuluh jari memohon kemaafan dan keampunan sekiranya terdapat segala tingkah laku, silap kata / tertulis selama ini.

Aidilfitri pada tahun ini agak berbeza sedikit kerana kami sekeluarga lebih banyak memenuhi permintaan untuk mengunjugi / menziarahi sanak saudara di kampung. Walaupun dah lama tak mengunjungi dan tidak bersua muka tetapi kemesraan jelas terpancar pada wajah masing-masing.

Serasa Hari Raya tahun ini tidak seperti tahun-tahun yang lepas, kerana kebayakan rumah-rumah yang kami ziarahi/lawati tidak ramai sanak saudara dan sahabat handai yang datang berkunjung, cuma yang nampak ketara hanya pada hari raya pertama, raya kedua, ketiga dan seterusnya semua seolah-olah lebih banyak meluangkan masa duduk di rumah masing-masing dengan tidur dan sebagainya. Ada pula yang telah pulang bekerja pada hari raya ketiga menjadikan suasana kurang meriah.

Dahulu, Seingatku sewaktu aku kecil memang kehadiran SYAWAL / Hari Raya amat dinantikan oleh kami terutama kanak-kanak(sewaktu kecil). Hari raya kami isikan dengan mengumpul duit raya (mengelilingi kampung ziarah-menziarahi selama seminggu sanak saudara) membuat rumah terbuka dan sebagainya tetapi keadaan amat berbeza apabila tahun berganjak ke tahun 2000 ini...anak-anak kecil atau muda lebih suka menghabiskan waktu cuti mereka duduk dirumah dan menonton TV serta bermain game daripada melawat nenek serta datuk , makcik & pakcik di kampung. Begitu cepat waktu berlalu.

Keadaan Hari Raya pada tahun ini kebanyakan orang membuat aktiviti rumah terbuka ketika ada kelapangan iaitu pada cuti hujung miggu dan sebagainya. Mereka tidak lagi mempraktikkan aktiviti berikut pada hari raya pertama, kedua & ketiga...

Tapi apa pun aku bersyukur kepada ALLAH S.W.T kerana masih lagi memberikan aku peluang untuk menikmati keindahan dan keseronokan berhari raya bersama-sama insan-insan yang aku cintai.

Semoga di tahun hadapan aku masih lagi dapat merasai nikmat serta melihat cahaya ramadhan serta syawal dengan penuh kesyukuran dan ketakwaan.

Sekali lagi ku ucapkan SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN.

The day when I was really "BENGANG" with a makcik called TEALADY

LOATHE = MENYAMPAH

I do not know how am I supposed to express my feelings rite now. Cuma tahap kemeluatan, kenyampahan aku ni dah sampai ke tahap maximum dengan manusia yang bernama TEALADY (kat opis aku jelah)

Marah + Bengang + Angin = rasa cam nak terajang / flying kick muka dia

Citernya bermula macam ni....dekat kompeni kita orang ni adalah sorang Hamba Allah ni (pangkat makcik) yang bekerja sebagai TEALADY which is Malay. Previously kita orang ada tealady gak tapi India tapi disebabkan kontrak dia dah abiss..so tamatlah kontrak dia dengan kitaorang (so employlah tealady baru. Ingatkan "Panas hingga ke petang tapi hujan di tengahari". Memula tu (baru-baru) masuk keje servis dia mak oii...memang TIP TOP (tak bley blah) punya....bak kata semua kejelah dia boleh buat ...sampai takat air minum aku dlm tupperware panjang ni pun dia ambil nak kasik basuh (mengagumkan) laa tu bukan takat tu aje siap buatkan makanan (jual) untuk kitaorang tiap2 hari (tak penah miss ..kecuali kalau dia sakit aa..)kebetulan time tu mmg kat opis kitaorang ni menghadapi krisis nak carik makanan (kantin tutup)tahap keramahan dia tak payah cakaplah...dah tu dia glamer dengan LATAH dia. (Aku tak taulah kenapa orang Melayu kita je yang selalu sangat kena penyakit LATAH ni kekadang tu sampai naik MELUAT pun ada) Takpe-takpe balik pada citer tadi...Lama kelamaan semua tu dah jadi semakin kurang,kurang dan kurang. Tak tau mana silapnya. dia macam dah takde 'self motivated' pegi keje pun asyik MC, CUTI, kekadang tu naik geram...kesian mmglah kesian sebab tengok condition dia (yelah keje kenalah takat kemampuan & kesihatan dia kan) kang sakit payah lak...tapi dia dah jadi mcm...(sorry kalau aku keterlaluan kata) dia dah NAIK LEMAK. Sume keje kena bersuruh. Kalau tak cakap tak remind tak nak buat. SAKIT HATI tau..kalau tealady dulu at least malas2 dia ada gak nampak bersih opis ni..La ni bila tang dia..erm...PAYAH..dahle opis ni staff makin bertambah (orang ramai) dia lak malas/selalu tak datang (pinggan mangkuk tak basuh tak vacuum) kekadang tu kitaorang plak kena tolong cuci dan kemas, buang sampah sekali dah dia tak datang. PAYAH lah. Itu kira ok lagi.

Ni hah bab- melatah ni ..nak melatah kira oklah suka ati dialah tapi kenapa mesti nak kuar ayat2 yang tak bagus contohnya S*T*N, B*B*, P*N*A*, BAPUK, Emak, Atuk Nenek, Bapak sume masuk, (Tak taulah dia sedar ke tidak) tapi bagi aku tak eloklah tak manis ayat tu. Aku sendiri ntah baper kali dah kena hamun (latah) dengan dia kekadang tu terasa tapi dah orang tua..memula tu mmg rasa kelakar tapi dah lama2 tu mcm sengaja la pulak. DAN...perkara yang buat aku betul2 marah/bengang kat dia ni ialah on Friday ari tu which dia terserempak dengan aku kat pintu depan (rasa dia mmg dah nampak aku) tapi...dia punya terkejut (haa..sure korang tau apa dia ckp) "OOOO MAK KAU BAPUK" aku terkejut lah... dia ni apa ni sebut MAK aku lak (mabbe I'm a bit emotional on this but kalau dah MAK aku pun boleh masuk aku tak boleh terima kalau mcm yang dulu2 berbakul aku kena tak apa lagi) so dengan spontannya aku bersuara "KAKAK NI.....MULUT". Ingatkan dah habis kat situ aje (sebab aku dah kewl down pun) tak amik hati punya....ghupanya melarat2 dia tak nak tegur aku, menjeling2, cawan aku pun dibiarnya tak berangkat sampai naik cendawan (air milo semalam (aku buat sendiri)) kat dlm cawan. Aku HERANlah kenapa pulak dengan orang tua ni..selalu ok...ingatkan benda tu dah settle..tak sangka lak aku yang dia terasa hati sebab aku ckp MULUT aje ari tu. Ingatkan the following week tu dah ok ghupanya dia menjeling2 aku ...itu dah satu hal...dia dtg awal apalah salahnya tengok bilik2 meeting tu (bersihkan) ini tidak..sanggup dia berborak kat dalam pantry tu macam takde keje lain..padahal tong sampah dah penuh, kerusi bilik meeting tunggang langgang, aku lak yang nak kena buat..(tu takde hal) tapi sendiri mau ingatlah..kalau dah selalu orang buatkan..LEMAK aa...apa pulak keje dia kat sini takkan cuci pinggan mangkuk dan cawan je. Kena ada hari2 ke nak vacuum, nak sapu nak lap cermin dan kemas bilik meeting? Tealady dulu pun semalas2 dia takdelah macam tu sekali...ini tidak..nak ikut "PROCEDURE" dia lah pulak...dah tu..tengahari boleh lak dia tido ..orang time staff takde kuar makanlah dia kena cuci/kemas itu ini.

Bila dah macam tu aku pun tegurlah suruh dia buat(kemas) bilik meeting tu..dia punya muka bagi kat aku YA ALLAH (macam SEMPUDAL)dah tu siap hempas laci drawer dia kuat2 dengan susun kerusi hentak2... aku kira nasib baik dia tua aje kalau tidak memang dah kena tapak kaki aje...cukup KEPANTANGAN aku manusia macam tu. Kalau bukan aku tegur siapa lagi yang nak tegur. Dah tu siap membebel-bebel kat dalam pantry tu ntah apalah yang dia dok mengata aku..kalau kira logik TAKKAN suruh pun tak boleh. INSULTINGlah Makcik tua ni. SAKIT HATI aku. Kisah tak tegur menegur ni meleret-leretlah sampai sekarang (HERAN) dia tarik muka 10 aku tarik muka 1000 kat dia...jangan ingat aku gelak2 dgn dia sebelum ni dia boleh suka-suka aje buat apa dia suka. I mean kerja is still kerja takkan kena ketuk baru kau nak buat..Kalau tak engkau yang buat sapa lagi yang nak buat. Bukan ada orang lain melainkan engkau yang nak buat benda2 ni. Bila orang cakap terasa cepat sangat. Bila orang dok bercerita kat pantry tu dia pun sibuk menyampuk..ntah hapa2 ntah. BOSAN...

Kekadang tu diaorang ni memang tak sedar diuntung . TAK SEDAR DIRI punya manusia. Dah bagi gaji tak bersyukur..nak duduk relaks duduk ajelah kat rumah(jaga cucu)tak payah datang kerja..banyak lagi orang yang nak bekerja kat luar tu. Kalau itu pun rasa bebanan...apa tugas harian yang dia buat tu sama macam dia buat kat rumah le...cume tak payah masak dengan basuh baju je itu pun payah. Dasar PEMALAS ..agaknya macam manalah rumah dia sure..tunggang langgang kain baju sana sini...hish...tak gemar aku. Memang aku ANGIN tahap MAXIMUM dengan orang tua yang bergelar MAKCIK a.k.a. TEALADYku (SABAR ajelah)

BODOH punya Manusia. Tuhan bagi rezeki taknak menggunakan sebetul-betulnya bila takde tercari-cari. SALAHkah aku sebagai rakan sekerja dan budak yang lebih muda daripada dia memberi arahan?

SELAMAT MENYAMBUT RAMADHAN AL-MUBARAK



Oleh NAZMI AIDARUS

RAMADAN menjelang lagi. Setiap mereka yang beriman pasti menanti bulan Ramadan dengan penuh rasa keikhlasan, kegembiraan dan keimanan. Bulan Ramadan ialah bulan pendidikan diri, kecergasan mental dan fizikal, bulan merapatkan silaturahim dan berbaik sangka sesama insan.

Ia bulan kemenangan setiap muslim yang berjaya dalam menentang keinginan nafsu syahwat, kejayaannya dalam menewaskan bisikan syaitan yang telah lama menapak dalam sanubarinya, kemenangannya dalam mengatasi keinginan hatinya berbuat dosa dan maksiat.

Ramadan adalah peluang keemasan meningkatkan nilai peribadi ke peringkat yang lebih tinggi, mengubahnya kepada jiwa yang lebih baik dan dedikasi, kemasyarakatan, lebih nilai keagamaan, cepat mesra dan lebih bertanggungjawab dalam mengeratkan hubungan kekeluargaan dan umat Islam.

Ia adalah bulan kemurahan, berpendirian baik, ia bukannya bulan kemalasan, tidak berdaya, lemah, memberontak, penuh dengan perasaan marah dan jemu terhadap pengabdian diri kepada Allah s.w.t..

Justeru, jadikanlah Ramadan tahun ini bulan yang dirancang pembangunan dan pengabdian diri kepada Allah agar dengan terdapatnya perubahan cara daripada rutin tahunan yang tidak strategik kepada rencana yang berdaya maju, Ramadan tahun ini mencatatkan sejarah tersendiri bagi melayakkan diri kita menempah rahmat dan inayah Ilahi di dunia dan akhirat.

Di sini diperturunkan beberapa saranan dan panduan dalam mengubah gaya sambutan Ramadan sedia ada kepada pembangunan rohani dan jasmani yang diharapkan dapat mencalonkan setiap peribadi muslim menjadi mereka yang bertaqwa kepada Allah s.w.t..

* Perjumpaan kekeluargaan dalam semangat kemesraan dan silaturahim untuk menerangkan tentang bulan Ramadan serta kelebihan yang dinyatakan dalam al-Quran dan hadis.

* Menghantar kad ucapan kepada keluarga terdekat dan sahabat handai sempena kedatangan bulan yang mulia ini sama ada menerusi pos, e-mel dan seumpamanya.

* Menghadiahkan buku atau karangan berkenaan Ramadan kepada rakan taulan dan adik-beradik bagi merebut kelebihan yang disediakan pada bulan mulia ini.

* Letakkan atau gantungkan potongan ayat al-Quran dan hadis mengenai fadilat Ramadan seperti, “Sesiapa yang berpuasa Ramadan dengan penuh keimanan dan mengharap keredaan Allah akan diampuni dosa-dosanya yang lalu.”

Ia juga dapat dibuat sendiri melalui lakaran komputer yang menyerlahkan bakat terpendam dan kreativiti.

* Meminta khidmat ulama, ustaz atau imam memberi ceramah ringkas berkenaan ibadah puasa kepada keluarga, adik-beradik dan jiran tetangga di rumah kita sendiri. Kegiatan sebegini dapat mendidik generasi muda dalam memuliakan ilmu dan pendokongnya serta mempertingkatkan konsep zikrullah dalam rumah tangga.

* Pembacaan al-Quran secara tadarus (seorang membaca didengari oleh yang lain mengikut pusingan) beberapa minit sama ada di rumah, masjid atau tempat kerja (semasa rehat).

* Membelikan hadiah seperti sejadah, mushaf, baju sembahyang, telekung dan seumpamanya untuk keluarga terdekat dan kenalan.

"MOTIVATIONAL & POSITIVE QUOTES"



Release Your Resistance to Success

What do I mean by "release your resistance?" It's simple. I think that many people try to hard to succeed. The harder you try...the harder you struggle...the more stress you create in your life. You actually create resistance to the very object or outcome that you desire. Instead, let go of your resistance. Allow your mind to be quiet.

Take a small object in your hand such as a small coin. With your hand facing straight down over a table, just open your hand and release the object. Without any effort, the coin will fall to the table. You can let go of any negative emotion, thought, or resistance just as easily. The more often you release, the more your mind will be at peace...and ready for positive action.

I'M A PROUD MOTHER OF MY TWO BOYS

Lilypie 5th Birthday Ticker


MAMA WILL ALWAYS LOVE U!

Siti Nurhaliza


Siti Nurhaliza binti Tarudin (born 11 January 1979) is a Malaysian pop singer. She is one of the most successful Malaysian singers in recent times.

Early childhood
Siti Nurhaliza was born in Berek Polis Kg. Awah, Temerloh, involved in various school activities, such as sports and speech class


Early commercial success
Siti Nurhaliza's family performed at many local ceremonies at their hometown, such as weddings. At the age of twelve, Siti began to learn traditional songs from her mother, and thus went on nickesh singing at special occasions.

Later, as she continued to work on her singing, she participated in numerous local singing competitions. At 16, she competed in the 1995 RTM Juara Bintang competition. While there, she met Adnan Abu Hassan, a locally-famous composer. He tutored her and helped her with her vocal performance, thereby helping her to win the contest. After that, she was granted a contract with Suria Records, where Adnan worked, and in 1996 released her first album, Siti Nurhaliza. Making her first album was a challenge because she had to balance working on her album while preparing for and taking the SPM examination. Despite this, her first album was a great success, and this would pave the way for her extremely successful future albums. [1]


Career development
After her first album, Siti Nurhaliza became a well-known figure in Malay pop culture and soon to be a Malaysian Pop Idol. She continued to have numerous hits, her songs spanning a broad range of genres, such as pop, R & B, and traditional Malay. Her voice and lyrics proved popular with teenagers throughout Malaysia. Because of this appeal, she has garnered numerous awards during her career.

Recently, even though competing artists, such as Ning Baizura, Mawi, Dayang Nurfaizah and Misha Omar, have been challenging Siti's position at the top of the Malay pop industry, she remains extremely popular in Malaysia.

Siti held a successful solo concert at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London in April 2005, although the majority of the audience were Malaysians living in the United Kingdom and Malaysians traveling to see the concert. From the concert also, she's famously acclaimed as " Asia's Celine Dion "


Romance
She was rumoured to be in a relationship with a prominent Malaysian businessman, known as Dato' K. The rumour goes that she will be getting married in 2006 which she neither denied nor confirmed the rumors, which deviates from her usual response to rumors regarding her. The rumors were further fueled during her acceptance speech at the "Anugerah Bintang Popular 2006". In her speech she thanked "her special one", whom she has never mentioned before. Recently reporters saw the family of Siti's supposed lover visiting her house in Kuala Lipis. Many surmise that the family visited in order to arrange for the wedding.

Previously she was also rumored to be involved with singers Zamani, Anuar Zain and Fazley.


On the 17th July 2006, Siti and Datuk Khalid made a press conference announcing their wedding plans which did not go down well with at least 49% of respondents to a local TV SMS poll conducted on the same day of the announcement. She will wed businessman Datuk Khalid Mohamed Jiwa on Aug 21. The engagement and akad nikah ceremony will be held at Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan, while wedding receptions are scheduled for Aug 28 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) and Sep 3 in Kuala Lipis, Pahang. Siti's parents' 38th wedding anniversary also falls on Aug 21. The couple have commissioned Datuk Raja Shah Reza from Nusantara Gems as wedding planner, with the reception at the KLCC to feature a "garden wedding" concept. Fashion designers Radzwan Radzwill, Michael Ong, Embun and Ana Avanti have been engaged to design the wedding costumes, which will feature traditional songket and tekat. Makeup artistes Nurul Shukur and Mia have also been engaged for the events.

While her fans feel happy for her, however some of them feel it was the wrong time to announce the wedding since Datuk Khalid was recently divorce from his wife several weeks before the engagement. To make matters worse, his ex-wife is now asking for compensation. This led the media to speculate that Siti was responsible for Datuk Khalid's marraige since he wanted divorce his wife to marry Siti. Some fans feel it isn't right for her to marry him since he is 20 years older than her and the recent scandal might tarnish her once good girl image.



Promotional work
Siti's great popularity meant that the demand for her endorsements is high. She has sung themes for movies (Puteri Gunung Ledang, for example... )and the corporate jingle for the Malay wireless communications firm Maxis. She has also been featured in various advertisements and has been spokewoman to many well-established brands such as Maybelline,Pepsi, Jusco, TMnet, Konica Minolta, Nippon Wiper Blade, Olay, and Samsung.

ABOUT THIS BOOK - SECOND CHANCE


Written by Danielle Steel

Eccentric high fashion meets buttoned-up Madison Avenue in Danielle Steel’s captivating tale of two perfect-for-each-other people from two wildly different worlds. In a fresh, funny look at what happens when a woman who has everything finally meets her match, Danielle Steel proves that, in life and love, it’s never too late for a second chance.

As editor-in-chief of New York’s leading fashion magazine, Fiona Monaghan lived a life as hectic and high-toned as the fashion world itself, jetting back and forth between her stylish Manhattan brownstone and the couture shows of Europe. With closets stuffed with Fendi, a snoring bulldog named Sir Winston sharing her bed, and a houseman who favors gold lamé and borrows her shoes, Fiona was utterly content with her life. Until the sweltering June day John Anderson strolled into her office.

After a dinner date left them both wanting more, Fiona impulsively invited John to the Paris couture shows. And in the most romantic city in the world, somewhere between the magic of the runway and the stroll along the Seine, Fiona let this man into her heart. A widower with two daughters, John Anderson was nearly Fiona’s opposite in every way. As conservative as she was freewheeling, John was both amused and appalled by Fiona’s world of high-strung designers, anorexic models, and high-heeled housemen. But within weeks of their return to New York, John was making friends with Sir Winston—and Fiona was making room in her closets.

It didn’t take long for the dominoes to start falling. First, John introduced Fiona to his daughters, their bloodthirsty Pekingese, and a snarling housekeeper straight out of Hitchcock’s Rebecca. It was hate at first sight. Then, after a dinner party with John’s biggest client goes disastrously awry, Fiona and John’s relationship began to unravel with alarming speed. What happens next will set Fiona on a journey filled with pain and revelation, awakening and change.…For when she returns to Paris alone and takes an amazing risk, an extraordinary series of events begins to unfold. And as the snow falls on the city of light, Fiona is about to get the surprise of her life: a second act she never saw coming.

In a dazzling tale of modern misadventures and career-crossed relationships, Danielle Steel brings us into the lives of two unforgettable people as they love and laugh, struggle and survive. With unerring insight, she captures the heady magic of instant attraction, the challenges of change—and the hope that comes when we dare to do it all over again.

QUOTE FOR THE DAY


: HAPPINESS :

The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,

but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect.

Have a nice day!

If Tommorow Never Comes


If I knew it would be the last time
that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute or two
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming, you would know I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything right.

There will always be another day
to say our "I love you's",
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do's?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget,

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance you get
to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear,

Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me,"
"thank you" or "it's okay".
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

WHY NOT DO IT TODAY!

We've reached PD on Friday, 7th July @ 4.00p.m. but at first only myself, hubby, anak-anak, mom and sister yang sampai(chek-in at Glory Beach Resort Hotel) including my sister-in-law and her hubby (check-in at Rumah Persekutuan). So we lepak-lepak in Glory Beach Resort Hotel (we check-in separately ...tak sama with the rest of the family member due to I'm bringing my mom and sister) takut 'depa' tak berapa comfortable..jadi kita sume berulang-aliklah selama 3 hari 2 malam daripada Glory ke Rumah Peranginan (penat tapi enjoy).

Selain daripada tarik rantai besi (hehehe) kami juga disajikan dengan acara2 sukaneka yang menduga minda dan kredibility kami antaranya Baling Belon, Lari bawak Sponge (Sponge Bob Square Pants), Bola Sepak Pantai dan Radio Buruk.



Tak sangka pulak 'time flies so fast' waktu pun dah sampai ke pukul 1.30 tgh so all of us break untuk lunch time. Menu kami untuk tengahari ini telah disediakan oleh caterer yang bertauliah yang telah di 'appoint' oleh AJK Makanan iaitu 'Nasi Ayam'...sedap..yum...yum..than acara seterusnya di teruskan dengan semua ahli keluarga bersolat / rileks2 dan aktiviti berikut akan berlangsung pada pukul 5.00p.m. iaitu preparation / persediaan untuk Majlis Tahlil Arwah Atuk & Nenek serta menyambut kepulangan Ibunda Mertua tercinta ke tanahair setelah mengerjakan Umrah selama 10 hari. Menu malam tu pulak ialah Barbeque dan Nasi Lemak 'Muara' yang telah disediakan specially from Mak Teh and the gang. Barbeque pulak terdiri daripada ayam, daging 'perap' dan ikan (ok gak tu).

The 8C's by Dato' Dr. Fadzillah Kamsah


8C SEBAB SUAMI BENCI ISTERI
dari Dr Fadillah Kamsah



C1. CABAR
Lelaki mempunyai ego mereka tersendiri. Jadi mereka tidak suka dicabar terutama sekali oleh wanita. Wanita perlu tahu batas tindakan mereka agar lelaki tidak rasa tercabar.Isteri kalau bergaduh dengan suami mulalah kata "Kalau awak berani cubalah cari perempuan lain! Dr Fadillah kata JGN CABAR SUAMI... nanti suami buat betul-betul isteri juga yg putih mata...



C2. CABUL
Cabul ni bermaksud keji dari segi perangai sehingga seseorang wanita itu langsung tidak malu. Misalnya bergaul bebas dgn lelaki yang bukan muhrim tanpa menghirau batas pergaulan.Juga perbuatan & kata2 isteri yang tak sopan (isteri hilang sifat malu)seperti keluarkan kata2 yg tidak baik pada mertua...



C3. CELUPAR
Wanita yg cantik akan kelihatan hodoh jika mulutnya celupar.Celupar lebih kurang cabul juga. Isteri selalu cakap yang tidak manis, selalu terlepas cakap pada suami sehingga membuat suami jauh hati.



C4. COMOT
Terdapat wanita yg cantik tetapi comot. Comot ini samada melibatkan wajah wanita itu, penampilannya yg selekeh,kerja yg dilakukan serta tindak-tanduknya. Contohnya, isteri bila nak keluar rumah baru nak bersolek dan comel tapi kat rumah comot. Suami pula di tempat kerja asyik pulak nampak yg comel2 aje... Ada isteri kata - mekap untuk suami,tapi kat rumah tak praktik pun.



C5. CEMBURU
Cemburu perlu dalam sesuatu hubungan.Tetapi wanita yg terlampau cemburu hingga pasangannya merasa terkongkong akan membawa padah kepada perhubungan mereka.. Ini membuatkan lelaki akan rasa diri mereka tidak dipercayai. Suami lemas kalau isteri cemburu berlebih-lebihan... sikit2 dok telefon suami kat tempat kerja. Suami baru balik kerja dah kita tanya macam-macam. Suami balik lewat overtime dah syak yg bukan2...



C6. CEREWET
Kata ulama hati wanita terletak pada mulutnya.Oleh itu wanita perlu mengawal percakapannya. Suami tak suka bila isteri cerewet tak bertempat. Contohnya kalau suami bawa makan luar, isteri nak tempat yang class2 aje. Restoran nak ada air-cond aje.



C7. CINCAI
Buat kerja rumah cincai, masak cincai, kemas rumah cincai, jaga anak cincai.Dr Fadillah kata suami paling benci bila isteri cincai jaga anak...anak dah masuk longkang tapi mak dok lepak depan tv lagi....



C8 CUAI
Kebiasaan lelaki tidak suka jika pasangannya cuai terutama apabila ia melibatkan masa.. Misalnya apabila suami menetapkan keluar jam 3 tetapi pada masa yg ditetapkan isteri masih sibuk bersiap,bersolek, mengemas.Ini akan membuatkan mereka benci kerana situasi sebegini.



8C ini lambang keperibadian muslimah yang lemah akhlaknya.Berpelajaran tinggi belum tentu tinggi akhlaknya. Tapi kita insan yg mudah lupa & lalai... ada masa2 tertentu, mungkin juga kerana sifat suami & keadaan sekeliling yang buat kita mempunyai salah satu ciri2 8C tu.Renungkanlah.....

The Day When I Received An E-mail on A Needle that can save the LIFE of a STROKE PATIENT

INTERESTING!!

"Keep a syringe or needle in your home to do this... It's amazing
and
an unconventional way of recovering from stroke, read it through it
can help somebody 1 day.
This is amazing, if it works. Please keep this very handy...
Excellent
tips. Do take a minute to read this. You'll never know. One's life
may
depend on you.

My father was paralyzed and later died from the result of a stroke.
I
wish I knew about this first aid before.
When stroke strikes, the capillaries in the brain will gradually
burst. When a stroke occurs, stay calm. No matter where the victim
is,
do not move him/her. Because, if moved, the capillaries will burst.
Help the victim to sit up where h e is to prevent him from falling
over again, and then the bloodletting can begin. If you have in your
home an injection syringe that would be the best, otherwise, a
sewing
needle or a straight pin will do. Place the needle/pin over fire to
sterilize it, and then use it to prick the tip of all 10 fingers.
There are no specific acupuncture points, just prick about an mm
from
the fingernail. Prick till blood comes out. If blood does not start
to
drip, then squeeze with your fingers. When all 10 digits is
bleeding,
wait a few minutes then the victim will regain consciousness.

If the victim's mouth is crooked, then pull on his ears until they
are
red. Then prick each ear lobe twice until two drops of blood comes
from each ear lobe. After a few minutes the victim should regain
consciousness.
Wait till the victim regain his normal state without any abnormal
symptoms then take him to the hospital, otherwise, if he was taken
in the ambulance in a hurry to the hospital, the bumpy trip will
cause
all the capillaries in his brain to burst. If he could save his
life,
barely managing to walk, then it is by the grace of his ancestors.

I learned about letting blood to save life from Chinese traditional
doctor Ha Bu-Ting who lives in Sun-Juke. Furthermore, I had
practical
experience with it. Therefore I can say this method is 100%
effective.
In 1979, I was teaching in Fung-Gaap College in Tai-Chung. One
afternoon I was teaching class when another teacher came running to
my
class room and said in panting, "Mr. Liu, come quick, our supervisor
has had a stroke!"

I immediately went to the 3rd floor. When I saw our supervisor,
Mr.Chen Fu-Tien, his color was off, his speech was slurred, his
mouth
was crooked-all the symptoms of a stroke.

I immediately asked one of the practicum students to go to the
pharmacy outside the school to buy a syringe, which I used to prick
Mr. Chen's 10 fingers tips. When all 10 fingers were bleeding (each
with a pea-sized
drop of blood), after a few minutes, Mr. Chen's face regained its
color and his eyes' spirit returned, too. But his mouth was still
crooked. So I pulled on his ears to fill them with blood. When his
ears became red, I pricked his right earlobe twice to let out 2
drops
of blood. When both earlobes had two drops of blood each, a miracle
happened. Within 3-5 minutes the shape of his mouth returned to
normal
and his speech became clear. We let him rest for a while and have a
cup of hot tea, then we helped him go down the stairs, drove him to
Wei-Wah Hospital . He rested one night and was released the next day
to return to school to teach.
Everything worked normally. There were no ill after-effects. On the
other hand, the usual stroke victim usually suffers irreparable
bursting of the brain capillaries on the way to the hospital. As a
result, these victims never recover.

Therefore stroke is the second cause of death. The lucky ones will
stay alive but can remain paralyzed for life.
It is such a horrible thing to happen in one's life. If we can all
remember this bloodletting method and start the life-saving process
immediately, in a short time, the victim will be revived and regain
100%
normality. We hope you can tell others about this first aid method.
By
doing so, stroke may be removed from the list of major causes of
death.

Forward this after reading. It will be a good deed indeed. The
greatest risk is not taking one... Make a difference!!!

The Day When I Was Really Upset and Missed My Dad

What a boring day today........fuhh....How I wish I could be together with my beloved hubby and my most beloved children "Broccolli" and "Pumpkin" right now...at home or elsewhere...watch movies, hang around at the shopping mall, makan aiskrim Haagen Daaz, or duduk-duduk dekat Coffee Bean or McDonalds...waaahhhh ALANGKAH seronoknya..... :))

Today not a very good day for me after what we (I and my hubby) had an arguements with my mom last night...but kalau dah namanya "EMAK" nak buat macam mana kan...kalau kata salah pun she still right no matter what and kesilapannya pun datangnya from both of us, so nak tak nak kenalah terima.....ermmm....sedih pun ada, letih dan sesak dada pun ada bila kena marah....thought of bila dah besar panjang dan dah kahwin tak payah nak kena "scold" lagi esp with parents....alih-alih kena jugak....what an upset situation....but life has to go on no matter what she still my mom. Emak yang telah membesar dan mendidikku sampailah aku besar panjang dan dah beranak pinak. UPSET :((

How I wish right now that "ABAH" is here to calm and comfort me while I was so down coz mom never want know how I feel. Hubby lain 'penangannya' pujukan tak sama....YA ALLAH I really-really miss my dad...Eight years tu terlalu lama dan selama itulah perasaan rindu aku terhadap "abah" terlalu mendalam. "If" he is here.. in the situation I'm sure he will try to protect and back me up no matter I'm right or wrong. I MISS HIM SOW MUCH :((

To be a good parent means that you have to carry a big responsibilities with all household multitasking job which I did sometime feel that I can't cope with what I'm currently doing now....SUSAH...compare to previous (time anak dara dululah). You have to jaga semua 'heart', huhuhuhuhuhu.....Tapi I have to proof it to myself, Hubby, mother, sister, family and in-laws that I can be a better and bestest mother, wife, daughter, daughter in-law in the UNIVERSE....hahahahhahaha (MEREPEKLAH) :))

Tapi overall memang aku tengah sad, unhappy and "soulless" today. Maybe because of last night incident. Tapi apa2 pun aku tetap sayangkan FAMILYku (Ayah, Brocolli, Pumpkin, arwah Abah, Emak & Along) kalianlah Raja dan Ratu dalam hatiku.....tiada yang lain.

LURVE YOU ALL SOW MUCH

I REALLY MISS YOU ABAH.....

Friendship Quote

To tell or not to tell!

If you have found out that your best friend's partner is cheating on your friend, here are a few things to consider before you decide to spill the beans

To be a true friend to someone means you need to share a relationship with him or her whereby there is unbreakable trust and understanding. The friends you have in your life stand as a rock solid support system when things go wrong and when you need a shoulder to lean on. So, what do you do if you find out that one of best friend's partners is cheating on him or her? Regardless of how close you are to your friend, it is not an easy task to tell him or her that the person who he or she loves is being unfaithful. What makes it even worse, is that you will be regarded as the bearer of the news that is probably going to break their heart. So, before you get impulsive and run to your friend to spill the beans on his or her partner's infidelity, you need to consider the following:

IDENTIFY WITH THEM

The first thing you need to consider before telling your friend about his or her partner's cheating spree, is to understand how you would feel had you been in your friend's place. For example, if your friend was the one telling you that your partner was unfaithful to you, would you be angry, would you hate your friend for telling you or would you thank him or her. Yes, people react differently to different situations and maybe the way you would have reacted and the way your friend reacts will be different. But if you can identify with the situation by placing yourself in it, it might make it easier for you to handle your friend's reaction when you tell him or her. But at all costs make sure you tell them, because if they do find out eventually and know that you knew all along, they will resent you for keeping it from them for so long.

QUESTION YOUR MOTIVES

Another important thing to do before informing your friend about the fact that the love of their life is also the love of another person or person's lives, is to figure out your motives behind the telling. Are you telling your friend because you genuinely care for his or her well-being or it is because you just thought it is a juicy piece of gossip and are more excited about the consequences of telling him or her, rather than worrying about the fact that they are dating some infidel sleazy person. If it is the latter, then you are not really a great friend to begin with, but if it is out of genuine concern then make sure the news is broken to them with complete compassion and try to be subtle about it.

DRAW THE LINE

Before telling your friend something so serious you need to know where you stand with him or her. Are you just very good acquaintances or actually the best of friends? Do you usually tell each other everything? If yes, then go ahead, if no, maybe you need to find a better way to let them know besides just saying it outright. If you are not so close to your friend, then he or she might just not believe you and will probably doubt your intentions.

BE PREPARED

As mentioned earlier your friend might just turn the tables and call you a liar or believe their boyfriend or girlfriend instead of believing you. So, always be aware of the consequences before you open your mouth. If your friend's partner convinces him or her that they are truly faithful and that you are just trying to cause trouble, you might lose your friend to this person. Or, your friend might believe you but resent the fact hat they had to hear this terrible news from you, it seems like a no win situation, but for the sake of your friend you need to take the risk. Just be prepared for the consequences so that you don't end up hurting yourself.

GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT

One thing you need to get right before telling your friend, is to actually know for a fact that the cheating is happening. Unless you have solid proof that the partner is cheating on your friend, don't say anything. Make sure you are right and double check the details, if you are wrong and he or she is actually faithful, then you will look like a liar and well — no one wants to be friends with a liar. So always verify the facts.

It is a delicate situation so handle it with understanding.

Birthday Party Celebration

Lilypie 5th Birthday Ticker


Sunday, 21st May 2006


My beloved son Muhamamad Amirul Haikal 5th birthday (dah besar dah dia) we (me & hubby) bring him & adik to watch his adored movies 'Over The Hedge' yang selama hari ni dia sibuk dok begging us (nak tengok) nearly everyday...akhirnya tercapai jugak hasrat dia......actually the mak long & pak long yang pay for the tickets as a token for his birthday. We reached MBO, Galaxy Ampang around 6.00p.m. due to the showtime which is at 6.15p.m. so me, hubby, afiq, ajip, kak su, abg padil, naguib, saba and ayid went to watch that movie which was ended around 8.05p.m. it was fun especially when you have all the people that you love around and when you looked at your loved one face (muka satisfied)...nampak abang, adik & ayid enjoying the show. "We" the parents pun tumpang sekakilah..right after the showtime we went for makan-makan at mamak's stall in Shamelin Area. Thought that my mom-in-law will join us but unfortunately dia ada "Kelas Zhulian". By the time sampai pun sure kitaorang dah habis makan....so takdelah tunggu dia. Nabilah pulak pergi tuition nak dekat exam so she need to struggle for success during her S.P.M. anyway we already had our gud time last nite during the barbeque time @ my house so tak regretlah, mana taknya barbeque sampai ke pukul 1.00a.m. fuhhh...TIRING..tapi takpe..janji enjoy...



Synopsis

Spring has arrived and an array of creatures sleeping in a large tree trunk has awakened from their winter hibernation. This group of unusual creatures, porcupines, possums, a squirrel, a skunk, has formed a family with Verne, a tortoise (voice of Bruce Willis), as the head. They discover that a tall hedge has cut their forest in half and their nut and berry trees are gone. Where are they going to get their food for next winter? Then RJ, an opportunistic raccoon (voice of Garry Shandling), enters the picture. RJ explains to the group that there is a new world called suburbia on the other side of the hedge where humans live. RJ says, "that humans live to eat, rather than eat to live". Humans throw away more food then they would ever need and put the food in garbage cans. RJ convinces them to go over the hedge to gather food for the winter.



(My Comment) This is a good movie for the whole family. The animation and storyline is excellent. I know children will like the characters and adults will be entertained by several gags made for them. You will love what happens to the evil Home Owner's Association Lady. The movie hits America's consumer economy with a commentary on our gluttonous connection to the food sector. The storyline shows that even though Verne is suspicious and jealous of RJ, that he can still form a friendship with him. The movie has a happy ending with the animals uniting as a family. With a storyline of friends, family and doing the right thing, the movie will have a great success.
