Life's little ramblings

Oh my, oh my.... I seemed to lost the passion and will to write. The excuses??? The normal reasons one could muster... Work, family, etc.

But for a simple life update:-
1. My biggest worry for this year has been settled, alhamdulillah. What is it, you may ask? My bother's wedding. It may not be a big feat or problem to you out there, but if you are without any mother or sisters to assist you, it troubles you day and nite. Sigh.... Alhamdulillah, everything went rather smoothly, with a little family drama here and there. Hahaha... what is a celebration without a little conflict to spice things up, ey?

Many of my relatives think that my family (my own) has turned snobbish for we had opted to stay at Legend Hotel a.k.a. Sunway Putra Hotel during the ceremony. Haha... None of what they think is true. My husband had earlier booked for four days 3 nites stay at the hotel using his membership. There were many days unutilised, hence he thought that it would be beneficial to any relatives who had come from far to attend the wedding. Unfortunately, there were no takers. Therefore, I decided to chuck my children and bibik there, and created little chaos over at my father's house. Second reason... the house is now more of my brother's rather than my father's after he had spend a fortune renovating the house. Thus, I may say, I feel a slight uncomfortable hanging out there too long, especially if my father is not around. Especially with kids tagging along. I believe the whole world knows how my relationship is with my brother. Sordid... I guess I'm better off staying somewhere else than in his house. I don't know how this year's Raya celebration is gonna be. We'll cross the bridge when we get there, I guess....

2. Farah and Fatin are both in Taska Permata. And I could see how Fatin easily adapts herself to a new situation. Farah, on the other hands, is still highly influenced by her moods. Never mind, I'm not gonna dwell much on this as I believe time will play its role in overcoming this situation.

I'll update pictures and more stories in other postings as I suddenly realised that everyone has packed their bags and left! Yucks!!!

2012 : New Year, New Resolutions...

Aint that the norm? I make resolutions by the minute, as I never had the discipline to follow and achieve any. Haha... Teruk aye? So, shall I add that to be part of the new resolution year 2012? To improve myself discipline in all areas of life, AMIN!

To start ...

1. Save more, spend less. How? I have to build the courage to write down my expenditures so that I can cringed over what i spend and be more frugal in my spending. Which leads me to my resolution number

2. Achieved my target in savings. Still cant reached the six-figure savings... but I want to get closer to it, not be further from it.

3. Be more patient and tolerant towards everybody and everything in life.

4. Embrace life positively!

5. Achieved my past resolutions... Haha!
