May 29 Datu Faizal's wedding reception in Malacca. Archie was his bestman

Thoughts without heads or tails
I am back the soonest I finished my lecture!
It's actually nice to talk to 'nobody' really. Strange yet fulfilling. Silly and crazy to talk to the pc and read back what you wrote eh? Bloggers share their thoughts and read comments that come by. Hmmm not really talking but communicating. No voice but there are words. I guess we can call them blogheads..is it too much?? Assuming you read this, what do you think? Blogheads is ok with you? or anyone prefer Blogbrain (sound like blockedbrain) Hahaha...I am sure you (lia) will find my writing a bit weird now..simply because I was driven crazy in class by my students and this is the effect...
My idea is to create a name for bloggers and relook at why they blog. Why some are so much into blogging that they are practically glued to their pc/laptop etc...unlike sms-ing cos one simply had to reply or the other side would think you purposely avoid contacts. Hmmm.... I need time to think and investigate the level of satisfaction achieved when people blog. Is the marginal benefit greater than its marginal cost? Is it similar with spending almost half of your lifetime working and missed out things that we take for granted...like spending more daytime with family..visiting aged relatives etc....hmmm I need time to come up with ideas on this...but one thing for sure. I will be back!
LOL

Hectic
If you have a child who had just finished SPM, wouldn't you worry about where he or she would go next? Of course as parents we all would plan for next level of study..I was much more anxious that my own daughter, Nina when it comes to her college applications. The not-so-good news was ... when the results from local varsities were out, she was unsuccessful.
With lots of patience and some pulling of strong strings...we got news that she has been accepted to UiTM Kedah. Sounded so remote and I began to worry. But study at UiTM means we don't have to fork up much for a local uni. So that weekend (8th May) we flew to KL and big bro Archie and dad drove all the way up north to survey the uni. Hey! Its a good campus! way better than the one in KK.
But the problem was the news wasn't formal..only through sms. (Risky eh?) Being me, I called the uni, UiTM Kedah and checked on the registrations dates. ( more than 15 times!!) You wouldn't believe this..the dates given on the sms didn't tally with the dates given by the uni. The sms stated 28th May(Hmm) It was about two weeks of yo-yoing and yet nothing was final. I must thank my sis-in-law in KL (thanks dear) for the advice and comfort.
One fine day (22nd May) while I was lying down flat as I was taken ill, I overheard Nina's shaky converstion on her hp about having to travel next day (23 May) to Kedah. (I was evesdropping). I recovered in split seconds and my brain functioned like the worldwideweb....ticket bookings, daily clothes, shoes, bajukurung, car rental to Kedah, hotel booking, personal stuff, food to much and oh no...have to buy luggage bag the very same day! It was HECTIC!!
Yes we did it! All done in 1 day and we (hubby, adik, Nina and me)were at the KK airport 6am heading for Penang...and big bro Dzwan was waiting at Penang airport to drive us to UiTM Kedah. Yes .. smooth registration and back in KK the very next day. It was like a dream... and now everyday I plan of how to escape to Kedah......
LOL all readers..

Time Flies
It's been 'ages'....and was not easy to recall my password for this blog after awhile...College and school holidays just ended and home is all for the maid from 7am till Reena, my youngest gets home from school around 2.00pm. Not that the maid would jump up and down when she's home alone at last..but rather she would be able to sleep a bit longer after we left for work...hmm oops it's time for class so I will be back.....(m stealing time at work...hahaha..who doesn't)
