mamai punya cerita

i was diagnosed with Tendonsomethingsomethinglitis. which in ordinary term simply means tendon tear on my right shoulder caused by repetitive shoulder motion blahblahblah... the doctor explained.

oklah senang cerita... coz i play golf five days a week, that's why. -.-

 it's been almost 3 months now since the start of Ramadhan.

last week i went to the specialist and they gave a jab on my shoulder. i hate needles but the jab is suppose to make me pain free...so i agreed to it.

actually that's not what the post all about, it's what happened slightly before and after the jab.

so a few days before my appointment with the specialist, my Event Manager(EM) WhatsApp me if i was interested to take a job.
my first impression of the date was it's on that weekend Sunday.

the Jab was scheduled on the 20/8/2015, apart from i was feeling numb on my  right arm, i also felt drowsy and sleepy... so i slept through...

when i woke up the next day (Friday) sometime after noon i checked my phone and thought, arghhh!!!! i forgot to confirm with my EM about the job and that it's not on Sunday as i initially thought but on that very Friday itself!

notice that i type 21/9 instead of 21/8, a minute later
when i scrolled through again and saw she mentioned 21/11
now, that even got me confused

then for some reason later that evening i just realized that i didn't even get the current month right to begin with!

i still feel pain in my shoulder but not as bad but it has probably migrated to my elbow now... sadly, hopefully temporarily, the doctor said i can't  play golf for the next 6 weeks. Haishhhhh...... :'(

partially handicapped,

Padded pop: from xs to XL and back.

i inherited Baba's body frame whom in turn inherited my Nene's body frame whom i have no clue who'd she inherited her petite body frame from for obvious reason i've never met my great grandparents so i wouldn't know, ie... i don't get fat or rather would and should never get fat... but...see the shadow in the pix?  even the shadow about a year ago says that i've gone nicely padded all around!

the shadow says it all >.<

if anyone should take the responsibility of blame, it's kak Mimi, she fattens me up with her Lauk Jawa everyday! yeah i love her to bits but yeah totally blame her for my padded frame. d(^0^)b

have u ever realize that the last people to notice that u've gain some kilos are the closest to u and the people whom you seldom see are the ones to notice?

in my case obviously, i noticed (since early 2014) when  i can hardly fit into my jeans, the buttons on my work shirts were popping, i've always need to suck in my tummy when i wear my tight fitted tops, my XS size golf skirt slowly turned Small, after which i had to make do with Medium then L and to my horror quickly after that i had to feel comfortable in XL!! one good thing came out of it was that i didn't have to wear padded bras or even push up bras...they just ballooning blossom naturally @-@

going shopping with myubby becomes very uncomfortable when he insisted that he'd helped me look for the sizes. so i'll take the L/XL and let him look for the S/ M sizes for me to try on...hahahah...

u can run u can hide but the shadow will always find u

myubby whom i see everyday of course has been hinting for awhile but i just brush it off with."am i  not more 'cuddleble' now?  i was of course  in denial and he was just too smart to counter that.

then one day, myFIL whom i see everyday casually said in front of myubby "DIL, u've put on kilos!" i was stunned that he noticed and myubby was like" see Bah also notices". i was horriFAT!

a couple weeks later myMIL, whom i  also see everyday pointed out loud "U've gained quite some kilos haven't u DIL!" i almost bolted out the window at that very moment if i wasn't too padded up to squeeze through it.b(>.<)b

late November 2014, we were invited to a wedding. an excellent excuse for me to find a new dress, i said.   browsing through the sizes of one particular design, cutting and the material i  was confident i would at least fit into the L size but, no matter how much i sucked in and hold me breath in, L size was just a mission impossible. so i walked out the shop with head bow low, cheeks so red that i don't even remember putting any  blusher on when i left home that day,  eyes fixed on the floor  with the XL size dress in my hand -__________-

browsing through the photos of the wedding later, almost gave me one heart attack to another was the turning point.. 

realizing that my thighs say hello to each other and start a conversation every steps that i take, that i was huffing and puffing taking one flight of staircase up to and from my bedroom, myubby cheekily reminds me to tilt my head up so not to show my double chin was just way too much.

so i told myself enough is enough

after hours of online  research for the best diet programs; almost bought myself those online 'Best Diet Program" that is on offer for just one day only. after consulting with  New Atkins New You book that i bought for charity from my SIL's office.

I made a new years resolution that i would go on Atkin's diet starting on the first of Jan 2015 at 62kg. 

62!!!!?? haihh...

starting diligently with the 2 weeks Intro program  followed by phase two soon after that. i am well into my 8th month on Atkins now and am comfortably maintaining my 50kg and back at wearing my size S Shirts, Skirts, Shorts and dresseS.

SkinnySunny signing off. :D

happy digit collecting day to me

YeeHa another year pass by to my journey around the sun.! Looks like there won't be enough space for candles on my birthday cake this year!!! happy birthday me!

my 5 seconds fame

while watching some recorded program via astro beyond, in between fast forwarding thru the commercials break, Laith thought he saw me on TV! so we rewound and paused...

it was about this carnival  astrolife was having in penang...

so here are my still 5 seconds fame on astrolife commercial shots...;P

sorry,,, just can't help it...xD

that was the picture they took of me when SunnyStar was invited to do face painting  for their (Astrolife) Open Day at the Borders the Curve sometime last year...err..like a day after i came back from my second honeymoon in bali that was, looking at my braided hair obviously...:D

so there... my 5 seconds post  people! ;P

the Super Post with no title...

SunnyisAida~ the not so super woman is currently a super busy bee with an incredibly super slow internet connection that keeps her from writing her super blog posts. :P so instead of zooming around like the super Road Runner she is moving about like sponge bob's pet, the not so super Gary.

Arghhh..... & now she's super freaking out cos the Super July month is just around the corner!!!!

tree trump!

i hate politics.
i hate any form of politics.
don't really care much about it...
simply not interested...
hence...
i'm a tree trump...
a very-very sad tree trump!

Jazz Dancing, No More..

i think my days at learning how to jazz dance is over...:(
after the 2 weeks Chinese New Year's break early February, class was suppose to resume the following week.  however on my class day, meyubby had a late meeting hence i had no car to get to the class. i called the dance center & told them that i won't be able to make it that week but will be going back in the week after. they said it's ok since the light's were out at the center anyway! hmmm...strike One. they didn't even bother to let me know if i hadn't called! anyway since there was only one week left till March i said i'll join back in in March instead...so i was Wednesday free the whole of February to be able to watch Glee! :P

then last week while watching the telly, the center manager called telling me that since they're heavy at preparing for their annual concert this Month, she informed me that class will not be resumed until later date of which i will be informed ( i assumed). oh and btw she said..would i like to join their Aerobic class on Friday instead since my dance intructor thought i would be more suitable at it... what a cheek! so that's my Strike TWO!

i'm kinda sulking at the moment... we'll see what other alternative they have for me cos Friday is our sleep over at my parents day or i want my deposit back!


have a great day peeps!

Blueberry Cheese tartlets minus the filling..

last sunday, my son laith n i planned to bake some blueberry cheese tartlets together but we ran out of  the cream cheese so off we went to grab some  at the bakery shop. since i was quite in a hurry to get the spring cleaning done before we could proceed with our  baking plan, i grabbed the first 'C' cheese that i saw in the chiller

Laith was all excited about it that he planed  to bring some to school for his teachers and friends to share.

once the pastry was finally in the oven, it's time to make the cheese filling...so out came all the ingredients plus the main ingredients the Cream cheese! while measuring the icing sugar i took a glance at the cheese packaging cos somehow i just realized that it didn't look like the usual Phili cream cheese that we normally use and my heart suddenly stopped beating for a second....yep, instead of 'Cream' cheese, i bought a 'Cheddar'cheese instead!!! oops maBaaad!! :P

 

it was too late to go out and get the cream chese from the store, so i kept the tartlet shells in a container n stored in the fridge for out next day complete blueberry cheese tartlets attempt....oh btway at this point, laith had refuse to talk to me for the failed mission....

but the sulking only lasted for just a bit cos the next day he was all smile again when we finally managed to finished the job and even baked a second batch.

he brought some to school the next day and proudly told me later that some of his friends want to order some those tartlets from him.  

new feature

a new feature in my blog post (i now have a signature!!), cool hey!! :D
well i know there is other ways where i can actually have it inserted to all my previous posts but that is way too complicated to my liking & that takes time which i don't have right this moment...so until then...i'll be happy with this one.

 with love...

wake up in the morning...

Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy
(Hey, what up girl?)
Put my glasses on, Im out the door - I’m gonna hit this city (Lets go)


oopss!!! hehehe sorry...ok from the top...


woke up this morning, i stood in front of the mirror...
there staring back at me was someone who has a prominent..hhmmm... crows feet!?
hello missy, what are u staring at me for?
=>what do u mean...i'm staring at u?
yeah, what are staring at me for?
=>the question is WHY Are U Staring at ME?
u mean to say i'm staring at myself and u're staring at urself?
now u got the idea..

oh well whatever...

wait...how long have those feet been there?
was that me in the mirror?
=>well yeah...who else but u?
hmmm...i guess that person on the other side did look like me...
only a lot  prettier...:P

what's not to be happy about having crows feet?
to have them means u laugh a lot, that u have smiling eyes...
that u're a happy cheeful person... that u live a healthy life...that, that...
that u're young at heart...that, that..
that who cares what u look like..
as long as u're happy inside...

Let's JAZZ dancing!

went to a trial Jazz dance class last nite. finally.... after contemplating (for so long...) on what kind of fun exercises that would be good for someone who has a low blood pressure like me.....the (online) experts say..activities like breathing exercises (hmm..think that's kinda natural isn't it?), walking ( i do that during my round of golf..apart from i've been blessed to be able to walk of course) , swimming (i don't enjoy swimming when that means i have to share the pool with other people)  & cycling (not on this part of the area where i live...unless if i wanted to die young & pretty or disfigured for the rest of my life) are most recommended....somehow....they just spelled B.O.R.I.N.G!

so when i received a leaflet from  a local Dance Center stating that they are offering a Jazz dancing trial class...i thought to give it a try...mind u this might sound like one of my this year non- existence new year's resolutions...it's NOT.  it's not even my 2010's new year's resolution, it's probably more like my 2009's!
still...better late then never hey :P

frankly, i suck at dancing....well of course i did shake my booty during my clubbing years...like ages ago come to think of it...but that was like freestyle dancing...who cares how many counts per steps u do as long as u enjoy doing it even if it means repetitively from the very start to the end of the song and for every single songs to follow...!:P

taking up my own challenge, i went  & actually had a good time...the dance instructor Esther was very understanding, helpful & friendly, she didn't make me feel bad every time i missed a step or two or  three and sometimes the whole 8 counts!!! yeah that bad! xD

we did a warm up session before we started  the lesson which at the time i thought i was ready to give up but as i discovered later (as in the next day) i did not suffer from any post muscle pain which is awesome!

& during the lesson, of course i wish i could look like this....

pic found here

or this?

 

pic found here

yeah righ, fat chance!!! :P

damn, come to think of it i must have actually looked more like this last nite...

 doing the chicken dance!

....even the chicken looks (finger lickin') good....*___*

anyhow, i found out later that to be good at jazz dancing, a basic background in ballet would help...double *sigh* *sigh*

but still.... too late..

i've signed up for the class and see what jazz dancing could bring out of the 'chicken dance' in me!

ok off shopping for my jazz dance pants for my next class...

Happy today people!

Just A thought...when shit happens!

this was inspired during reminiscing what last year (2010) meant to me & suddenly it smack me hard on the face...
so here is just a thought to share...

when we made mistakes

we say: Oh well i'm only human, shit happens,  i'm not perfect..

when others made mistakes

we say n we ask: u're such a clutz, what were u thinking? 

when we did something right

we say: it's brilliant isn't it, it's totally my idea..

when others did something good

we say: it's pretty good but i could have done better...

&

sometimes when bad things befallen us

we ask God why

when bad things befallen others

we say: thank God, it's not me

when good things happened to us

we clap, we cheer, we cry, we hug , we jump for joy

but where are the praises for the Lord?

absent- mindedly we forgot to say: thank u God

when something good happened to others

we start asking again: oh Lord, why them, why not me?

the moral of the story is: be grateful and always count on ur blessings...

MPO Celebrates 25 Years of Sheila Majid...(11010)

1) despite the fact that u expected us to loosen up & misbehave as in be ourselves ~despite the fact that we were at Dewan Filharmonic Petronas that when u have a dress code (formal- Lounge Suits/ Batik) u are expected to behave a certain way....or at least that's how i was led to believe...


2) despite the fact that i am going totally deaf from my usual partially deaf ears no thanks to a row of Annoying Inconsiderate Selfish Cackling Hyena BITCHES that sat behind of our row at the circle  whom i expected to behave much better then those seated at the cheap shits seats at the stall...

3) despite the fact that i had to listen to their (refer to despite no. 2 above)  comments sharing & appreciation out loud as though they were some radio football commentators (thinking that they're the only one who could see what's going on while telling the listeners in details), laughing  & screaming away like a gang of banshees..behaving as though they're the only ones sitting in their bloody living room irrespective of other paying fans trying to enjoy the same performance as much as they ....

4) despite that we had to pay more but were seated (good view for people with good eye sight though. despite the fact that i opted for my lenses rather then my glasses...) compared to those paying cheap shits seats but got to sit closest to the stage (even though they had to strain their neck to see sheila's & the rest of the MPO's crew instead of  seeing just their feet...(who are they to complain anyway)....

5) despite the fact that the rules & regulations stated that the dress code for the nite is formal that there were still some morons who came in their most casuals 'go KLCC type' of attire whom were  still allowed in...

6) despite the fact that the r&r says camera is not allowed in the hall ( that i dutifully & took the risk & left mine in the car~ despite the fact that i seldom left the car/ home without it) that those whom their otak letak kat kepla lutut still un embarrassingly disobeyed the r & r; happily snapping away...(jealous sebenarnye tu!) that i don't have even one picture at the event...

7) despite that i don't have  even one  single picture at the concert due to the above point (refer to despite no. 6) with my newly bought dress (refer to despite nos 1 & 5) specially for the concert that cost me RM87... hehehe..not much but still...(which probably a blessing that i get to wear it again for the next upcoming wedding in 2 weeks time...if we were to go that is... ;) )

8) despite the fact that we had to listen to the unofficial back up singers that we certainly didn't pay to come listen to...

9) despite that  i settled for just miming to all the songs in respect to the other people whom  i'm pretty sure did not pay to come to listen to me singing instead.... that would either cause hail storm in KL that nite or people just simply cringe to death at the sound of my singing...

10) despite the fact that mehubby was totally besotted & lost in his own world the moment Sheila came out on stage ( &probably didn't even remember that i was there too) ...but then again who wouldn't...(.be mesmerized that is).... duhhhhhhh...;P

despite all of the above.....

***drum rolls***

*I don't have enough superlatives to describe your awesome performance with the MPO tonite Sheila!!! :)  

~quoted from mehubby's comment on sheila's page....pinjam ye sayang...;)

so here's my unladylike banshee scream for u....

SHEILA!!!!! U JAZZ!!!! 

it's a wonder how a voice like that came out from a person as petite as u...~ so i guess what the saying says about 'great things come in small packages" is so true...

if u dedicate the song Lagenda to the one & only Tan Sri P. Ramlee, we dedicate that same particular song to u & I'm pretty sure no one can deny it.

& Kudos too to Kevin Field & the MPOs for a fantastic accompaniment to Sheila's performance that nite. U guys were Excellent!!!

since i didn't have any pics taken for this particular concert (refer to despite no.6), here's the one from when she performed  & launched her Ratu album in London in 1996 where i was one of the work committee members then.

standing next to her made me feel like an ogre...seriously...

  

the ticket that i still kept in my album

to mehubby, despite all my despite(s) above...thank u for the nite bue..((((mMWah))))

our anniversary treat @ Sushi King

 laith' s fb anniversary wish...;D

it was kinda funny when Laith told us that he wanted to treat us to a meal for our wedding anniversary using his duit raya...since we've already made an arrangement to have dinner for two that Sunday we tried telling him not to bother & should save his duit raya instead but he insisted until at one point he merajuk'ed' & refused to talk to us...hehhee..
i guess now he is at the age when he understood what anniversary is (thanks to the amount of programs on disney channel that he watches on TV) & thinks that a child should treat his parents on that special day...ahhhh... so sweet...:D

finally, we all agreed  to have family lunch at Sushi King ( simply because he loves sushi ;P) Metro Point , Kajang.
~oh but on a constant reminder not to eat over his budget! hahaha... ~he kept tabs at how much we've eaten & at one point asked for a pen & paper to calculate!!! xD

 

 

even though we were on ration, thank u baby!!! *Mwahs* u've made our day....
* oh he has already started planning on where to treat us for our next anniversary!* bless ur good heart my child...

a new begining to the 2nd decade.

how time flies... it's been a lil  over a decade now... this year, marks our first year to our 2nd  decade together... as u nicely put it..." bukan dah 11 tahun BUT baru 11 tahun..." insya'4JJI....

so here are my thank yous...

Thank u for accepting & tolerating my imperfections, my 'samdot'ness. thank u for being proud of me when expected, for ur honest critics when needed & sometimes unexpected, for correcting me when i made mistakes, for entrusting me with certain things that i never thought i'd be capable of, for believing in me,  for making me laugh when i'm down, for being there for me when i'm sad, for making a fool of urself to make me smile, for making fun of me when i acted silly...or just let it be & keep mum when u know i'll learn some of the embarassing moments in due time without  u telling, for laughing with me rather than at me (as u always claim),  for sharing ur dreams & fantasies with me, for being what i'm not .....

thank u, thank u, thank u..for being with me & for me anytime all the time.....

Happy 11th Anniversary Sayang,

Love U Always & Forever...amiin....
