Zoo here we come

I have been disappeared again for almost a mth after seeing my last post! Hehehe.. Some of you might even having a long neck oledi since I promised to post our zoo trip but did not make it happen! Sorie.

**Post dated 01 Oct' 08**

A week before goin to Zoo, we have been educating Adriel by letting him to watch Barney (Let's we go to the Zooo...). I think is good in a way, at least he has a rough idea of the animals before seeing the 'Real' ones.

As what we have planned on First day of Raya, we decided Not to postpone this trip any longer. It has been postponed since 1st May aka Labour Day. I also invited Ley Mei's Fmly & My Kolik's Fmly to join our Adventure since all of us have no plans for this Raya Holidays.

Adriel woke up about 8itsh and I was half way packing his stuff and mine. While Hubby helped me to changed Adriel and get ready for our journey. We took the Middle Ring Road (MRR) since it's nearer to our home and the whole journey was very smooth since it was a public hols. We managed to get a nice parking spot since we are early.

Paid the entrance fees at RM15/adult & Adriel went in for free (3yrs and below).

I made some some fingers food a day before such as bread with sausages and cheese & some Pork balls so this will goes very handy if Adriel wants to have a bite of this instead of his milk. Well, In actually fact all this ended up to our tummy. He insisted to eat (well he took a bite or two) and since we were rushing to be at the Zoo at 9am we didn't have any chance to have breaky this eventually goes handy for us :)

Our 'Packing List' includes:

• Stroller
• Mini Fan
• Themos
  
• Water tumbler
• One container of 20 chicken wings
• One container of bread and sausages
• One container of pork balls
  

*The stroller was full of container because I was so scared the security guard will confiscate our food! Well thank goodness, nothing had happened. Phew... Well, Is not that I kiasu of bringing so much food. I just wanna make sure we will not get famish end of the day as I heard the food court no longer has KFC and I am definitely sure, there won't be much choice of food for us to have. So by packing some food, It will at least fill up our tummy. Anyway, we and my kolik did have our lunch at one of the fast food place. Couldn't remember the name of the place but the concept like KFC. The Q was long as this is the only fast food place. There are some restaurant around the corner which provides some local food which wasn't that cheap.

We didn't have the time to take the tram.. Which we should at the first place!!. By the time we wanted to ride, it was really really long Q. Well, maybe another trip to the Zoo again before Adriel turns 3 :)

BTW, we left the zoo about 5pm which means we hv been at the zoo almost 8 hrs! Well, Adriel started to get cranky at 3itsh as we have no chance to take his morning nap. Poor Boy, he was so Exhasutedand slept all the way home.

Our overall experience, I really considered this was a WORTH paying a visit. A good experience for myself and Hubby since we haven't been to this place for nearly 10-15 yrs! So is like returning to Memory Lane To Us and an eye opener to Adriel. Well, I guess my expectation was lower this time (not comparing with Singapore Zoo!) kekeke

Hi GANG,

I'm BACK... after 3mths break! Wow... time flies so fast and I haven't start doin anything!

Well, nothing much to update for the past Three Mths, been having my own sweet time doin Nothing. So you are not loosing any interesting stuff.

To All, that read and comment on my blog, would like to say "A Millions of Thank You" for the encouragements and support that you have given me. I really feels very appreciated on what I wrote. Your comments has opened up my eyes (*blink *blink) that I shouldn't Give up no matter how Busy or Lazy I'm co'z U haven't give up in me (thank you again). Well, Is really hard at times juggling between a worker, a mom, a wife & being myself. But I guess, this is what it's called 'Life Cycle'.

Of coz, I DID tried very hard to start posting BUT everything definitely something stopped me from doin it. In fact, after I came back from my trip to Cambodia, my Internet went Bonkers! So no internet for almost a mth and since I haven't been blogging, that even WORST, never take any effort and initiative to troubleshoot the internet. Till hubby bugging me to start repairing the internet or else he will be wasting his money at the internet cafe just to surf the net. Well, I still yet to resolve some of the problems BUT at least I managed to get the internet working. I gave myself a Credit as I am not an IT Savvy but managed to get it works! Dun ask me what I have done co'z I really dunno the answer.

Now, not only tis Blog has been attacked by spider web even My brain also became Rusty. Need to do a bit of knocking in order to get it work.

Will try to update you more of some Post pics of my Monster. BTW, Monster has Officially turned TWO y'day :)

Last but not least, HAPPY BLESS NEW YEAR.

Mummy Monster

FOS - Kids & Teens

Hi All,

Juz a quick post (have no time to blog on Zoo & Port Dickson yet!).

Thought of sharing this shop if you not aware of it existing. Found this shop while my intention is to redeem my prize (will blog bout tis later) . Is a Factory Outlet Shop aka FOS which sells lots of kids clothing. This is a bit extraordinary to me as I always came across FOS for Adult and with very little of kids clothings.

Sometimes they do have some nice clothes and you might get one for yourself too. As for the price, I won't say very cheap ~ so so lar...

If you are not particular about old season clothing or some rejected bits and pieces, this shop you should worth paying a visit. Another shop that I also recommend is Brands Outlet (the one that I known was situated at Ikano) a big shop where you can get varieties of clothing or house furnishing.

Here is the pic of the shop

FOS @ 1 Utama New Wing
I think is located at 2nd Floor - IF NOT, it's at Kid Floor

Picnic with my Teddies Bears

Adriel has a DATE with his My Papa Bear, Mama Bear, Koh Koh Bear & Baby Bear at the Front View from the Balcony!

He dragged all his Bears for a Morning Yum Cha

Concentrated Boy

We finally managed to get Adriel to sit quietly for an hour by focusing/glued to the TV! At least he wasn't running around or digging out his toys and make a tornado out of it!

Hehehe... hahahaha... Yes I am very very hapi :e

Who make him so Focus?
Welcome to Elmo's World

Yes, I am goin to buy more Elmo Cd's or burn more :)
(You have any Elmo's Cd? Pls help me to burn)

While I was sitting beside him, *scratching head* 'Wat so great about Elmo?'
I'm yet to find out the answer!!

*I never like Sesame St when I was a toddler. Never ever... till now. Dunno why? Maybe their English very Bombastic to me. Couldn't understands wat they trying to say! That's why I started him on Barney instead of Sesame St.

Elmo: Do u know How does Cookie Monster eat his cookies?
My jaw nearly dropped when I saw how Cookie Monster eat his cookie.
He was so grubby & greedy.

*shaking head* Wondering 'will Adriel eat like tis?' If Yes, I'm goin to have a heart attack soon!

And another word I learned fr Sesame St "Get Lost" :)

Ok, peeps is time to say 'Get Lost'!

We are off to Port Dickson AGAIN

Hi, we are goin to Port Dickson for a short trip today. Only 3D2N as Mummy & Adriel are tagging Daddy for a conference.

Mummy will be crazy over the weekend in PD as Mummy will expect tis lil Monster will not be having any his naps all day! Can u feel how exhausted I will be??

See you soon. Have a Good weekend ahead.

Will blog about our Zoo trip later...

I'm Wordless & He is Speechless

Was doing some window shopping, when I saw tis cute Pink Dress. It was really an irresistible of not buying as I really like girly stuff.

I got home and showed tis to Hubby, "Don't u think tis Dress is cute'? Hubby nodded. On the other hand, Tan Sri was patting his chest and indicating 'I want to wear'. So, I can't say No right to his command since he asked for it and he can be my model.

Ok, is totally not my fault. I have my Hubby as a Witness. (Yes, I'm responsible to his earlier post, (about 6mths ago) that I make him to wear.

Tis round I'm not liable to his act.

*Sasha, U think Adriel gonna KILL me too when he gets to read tis??

I have been thinking about spending AGAIN. Still considering of getting a good and reasonable price of a camera.

My current Pentax Optio A10 which has served me about 2 1/2yrs has showing signs of 'Bye Bye' to me. It still functional, just that the batt can't fully recharge either using the direct or indirect charger and the batt clip has been broken.

It was quite frusfrating as I need to charge the batt quite frequent in order to have a full bar of batt. Even though I have a full bar, that doesn't mean my batt last very long.

My next aim is to get a DLSR1 camera - those bulky & mostly black in colour. Been searching for awhile for any good brands. But it does not come cheap. A minimum of RM2K which I need to pay. I have one in my mind now, Canon E450 at minimum price of RM3K. Sigh!!

Do I really need a 'hi-tech' camera or just a normal Digital cam? Sigh... this are the Q that always stop me from buying.

These pics was my current camera. Still can take good pics - sometimes!

If you have any frens (or pig & dog frens) working/selling on camera Pls let me know. I'm really on a tight budget. Maybe I can consider second-hand camera too!
