busy weekend...

very very busy weekend indeed for both of us...

actually, we have been busy since the past week with packing all our stuffs into boxes for shipping to Malaysia this coming weekend. 8 boxes, with a lot of things to be packed. unfortunately, hubby like to do all the packing on his own. i just need to show him what things to be packed, and he will do it on his own. he feels like doing tetris puzzle while arranging all the stuffs inside those boxes. he always dissatisfied with me doing the packing, for the main reason because i always forget what thing and which box i put in certain thing.blame the hormones, i have becoming very forgetful and clumsier during this pregnancy. ;p

anyway, we managed to packed stuff into 3 boxes on Saturday morning, 2 were done the day before, and 1 box were sealed just before our guests arrived on saturday. 5 more boxes to go. huhu...and we have to get those boxes ready before this coming saturday morning for the boxes to be collected. poor hubby, he has to do the packing, and he also has to bring those boxes down the stairs on his own this weekend. 3 flight of stairs, as our apartment is on the third floor. imagine, with my 'sekepeng' hubby, has to do all those labour work..sian suamiku...aku tidak dpt membantu.skdr menolong hubby packing. nak mengangkat brg berat2, x mampu..takut terberanak..hehe...

oh,did i mention that we received guests over the weekend. K.azy and his husband, taki, and his cute 4-yr-old son, Muslih came over to cork from Galway for house hunting in Cork. since the distance from Galway to Cork is not near, they informed us that they will 'tumpang' stay overnight at our house, in which we welcomed with open heart. kami sukela kalau ade tetamu dtg rumah. they managed to find the house in Douglas which fit the criteria they were looking for. luckily for them, the rent for the houses has been plummeting over the past few months. they got a big house with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms for only 900 euros monthly rent. if the same house were to be rented a few months back, it would cost them 1200 euros monthly rent. i guess the recession somehow affected the house's rent, which benefited the tenants, but causing those landlord huge lost.

they arrived in our house on Saturday afternoon. on that evening, after they paid the deposit on the house they booked, we all headed to our favourite restaurant, Banna Thai in Cork City. felt like eating Thai food after a few days eating my own cooking. we had a joyous evening together, chit chatting about our lives and many other things which include the prospect of future investment. by the way, taki is very good in this area, as he has been doing researches on this matter.
and, not to forget, we had good feast too. i ordered stir fried mee, with hubby enjoyed his usual meal, nasik goreng. hehe..

we finished eating around 11 pm. headed home from the restaurant , we watched Battle Royale 2 before everyone were too tired and sleepy to continue finishing the whole movie.anyway, i slept early that night. too exhausted, i guess.

the following morning,I woke up early and cooked nasik goreng and keropok for our breakfast meal. after few hours spent on playing games (hubby, Taki, and Muslih played together,with me and K.azy became the observers), we all went to Limerick to attend Syikin's kenduri. i dropped by to pick Shikin, Oni, and Roque before heading there as they did not have transportation to go to Limerick, plus Shikin were post call. poor her.nampak penat....

we arrived Limerick around 3 pm. the house were almost full by the time we reached there. syikin buat makan sungguh2 ha...hehe...she invited almost all families in Limerick.hehe...dahla she did that all alone, plus the big help from Syasya and Fida on that day. ganas la syikin. ingatkan nak contribute trifle for her kenduri, tapi x sempat nak cari barang2 and nak buat. sorry syikin.

makan2 lagi kat umah syikin. she cooked nasi ayam, BBQ chicken, sossages, burgers, nuggets, desserts and plus mcm2 lagi.sungguh kekenyangan...thank u syikin. hehe..siap tapau lagi tu sblm balik rumah.hehe...met a lot of people...k.azah,along,asyikLin, dora,rad,darlene, k.jazz bell, k.yuli and many more. heppi,and heppi... byk betul borak...

i met k.atie & juki there as well.we did hilarious thing by comparing between us which bump is bigger.haha...k.atie's EDD is at the end of august. it's her third baby anyway. also met k.azah which due around at the same time as k.atie. huhu..all with big bumps..hehe...obviously, i think i'm the winner. been 'complimented' by many others about how huge my tummy is.hehe...

eheh...tak kisahla...besar mana pon my perut,as long as my baby is healthy.haha...yg pasti, kene ber diet la lepas ni.dats for sure. skrg, makan, and makan lagi...sblm pantabf,hehe.before balik Cork dr rumah syikin,we had fun just watching and playing with Iman, asyik-lin's son.sgtla loyar buruk, and active. hehe...lawak betul Iman tu. semua tergelak tgk kata2 spontan Iman.

anyway, here are some pictures taken today at syikin's house...perut ku doubling its size after all the meal.siap oni cakap, 'bestla nampak fizah..' i asked, 'kenapa?' and she said 'boleh makan x renti2'. haha..i laughed out loud. true, my appetite has been skyrocketing this past few months, i think that explains why my tummy is huge. haha...
