Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is tomorrow and guess what? we have nothing planned. According to my belove hubby, everyday is valentine's day for us. Is this an excuse for not planning anything?

My hubby is a very practical man. He does not like to spend money on unnecessary gifts just for example, flowers, teddy bears....lucky he has me, as I wont like him spending money on those either. I prefer him to save up the money to get me more pratical gifts like, LV, Gucci and diamonds...haha...hope he reads this...hint for him...

Anyhow, we are not going anywhere for dinner tonite. But am thinking of going out with our little boy tomorrow. Valentine's day is not just between spouses or people in a relationship...its about people we love. You can take your mum out on Valentine's day to show her you appreciate her, to show her you love her. I would love for Brandon to take me out on Valentine's Day when he grows up. Just dating my son. That would be great.

So I will be celebrating this day with 2 of my greatest heros, my husband and my son.


Happy Valentine's Day.....

Late for work

Last nite was a hectic nite. Actually not so but because things go on non-stop. When i reach home from work, after like 1 hour jam, I hate the Klang jam. So terrible, why cant ppl be more considerate so that everyone can get home early. Anyway, so reach home safely, talk to the kids abit, kids as in Brandon, my boy and Jessene my niece. Talk to them abit and went up for shower. Brandon now knows how to say " I want to follow mummy" and so ok, he now will follow me up to the room, he will be busy with his DVD player and TV, he will switch on the TV and dance to the songs and I will be in the shower. On and off i will be calling his name and told him that he must answer. So he will "ooi, here" and let me know that he is alert. mummy calls means have to answer.

after shower, time for his dinner, the maid came up to take him down, so i proceed to log into MSN and check my facebook. Got alot of parking tickets for my parking wars game.hemm...have not been logging in since i started this new job. been sleeping early. I need my 8 hours sleep. at least 6 hours. else, i'll be a cranky mummy. and so, was chatting with a friend and knock knock, maid told me we all need to bring Jessene to Dr.Ooi. She has been having fever for 2 days now. So ok, drove everyone out as in Mil, the 2 kids and the maid, the others are all out. Took her to Dr.Ooi, came back, was really hungry, had my dinner then watch some Tv with the kids, get Brandon ready for bed. He has been asking to drink his milk in the room nowadys. So took everything up and drink his milk upstairs, changed him into his PJs and switch off all the light. then he told me he needs to do his poo poo. got a little scolding from me because i have asked him before changing him into his PJs. anyway, well, details will be at his blog. so he ended up sleeping at only 11.15pm. So i get up to surf the net a little and before i go back to bed, hubby wants to talk. So we chat a little- little as in until about 1pm. But last nite was a good sleep. I forgot to set the alarm on so this morning, brandon woke up and calls mummy, climbs up to my bed and when i check the time, S**T! Late !! Woke hubby up to entertain his son, then dash off for shower, put on my clothes and wave bye bye. brought my make up to put on in car.

Brandon was a good boy today, i guess seeing me rushing he understands that mummy is late for work, so daddy took him downstairs to say bye bye and waved, gave him a kiss and promise him i will be back tonite to play with him.

Thank God the traffic was smooth, reach office exactly at 8.30am. Imagine this, woke up at 8 and within half hour, i get to shower and reach office but of course without make up. but at least manage to reach office on time. so not exactly late. but was rushing like mad lady.

Wroking life starts again

Working life starts again after a 2 months break. I have been blessed with interviews after interviews and well, some was positive and some...not so good. Either the offer was not good or the manager has management problem. We also do market check before we join the company. Luckily i have friends all over the banking industry. Checking on the manager also quite easy. I have offer that came so much later that I have to let it go although I think I should take up the offer as a sales manager. But maybe not this year when the economy is bad. When we knows sales is going down and everywhere is chasing for figures. This is a bad year to become a Sales Manager. So will have to wait for next year and see.

Started with Islamic banking. Kuwait Finance House. Some says im working for terrorist company. Some ask if I have to wear a tudung. Well, i have to wear headscarf, and only pants. So my working skirts...have to put aside.

The main reason for me to take up this job in an Islamic Bank is that I will be the pioneer in this Islamic Banking in future. All banks are going into this line, and me working in an Islamic Bank is an added advantage. Middle east company is one of the wealthier company that we can work in right now because of the economy. How does ppl take it, im still exploring. Its going to be tough cause the branch im in is a really new branhc. Up to date, 3 months old. So everything is not in place and everything have to do from scratch.

Im really counting the days when Im already familiarise with all the Islamic concepts and well, boast around...haha....
