+*+*~Diabetic Living & Wimpy Kid~*+*+

Memandangkan hari ini saya tidak ke rumah nutrisi kerana menyelesaikan beberapa perkara di luar dapatlah chance untuk balik awal ke rumah. Sampai saja di rumah, my mother remind me that she asked me to go to construction shop to find out how much is the green fence. Aiyarkk!! Lupa sudah, so had my lunch and keluar balik lah. Cadangannya nak pergi tanya harga pagar tu jelah, tapi bila dah bawak si kecik Aimar tu, my husband ajak melencong instead. Konon2 nak bawak anak jalan2 la. So kami pun melencongla ke Jusco Cheras Selatan.



1st sekali pegi tengok kat toys area. Nak belikan si kecik tu puzzle toys. Tapi bukan sekarang, tunggu dia besar sikit, 8 months maybe. Sebab kalu belikan sekarang nampak gaya memang semua mainan tu akan masuk dalam mulut dia. Lepas tu saya pergilah kat Popular kejap. Yes, I'm really a book & magazine freak. Kalau pegi kat Aeon Cheras Selatan ni, Popular book store tu memang tempat persinggahan wajiblah. Mula2 check out the magazine and found out 1 magazine from US - Diabetic Living. Hoih, menjadi sangat pelik sebab diabetic pun dah start ada magazine, nampak gaya kalau tak dibendung Dibetic ni PASTI akan jadi gaya hidup. Sungguh serammm.


Lepas tu, saja check out kat promotion area. Ternampak collection Harry Potter, complete collection. Harga dia almost RM300, dah propose kat husband to buy this collection for his niece Ati. Then ternampak buku ni...

Sungguh tertarik so I took a look and found out that this book is really amazing! Author of this book Jeff Kinney is really, really, really creative should I say. I learn from Jim Rohn, we should write our journal so that we can pass our experience to our next generation. And bila saya tengok buku ni, wah...memang sangat creative way lah untuk mengajar kanak2 on journal writing. You can check more about wimpy kid at here. And tell you what, I really WANT this book! Nak beli collection dia lah nanti. Or ada orang ke nak hadiahkan saya collection of this book? **wink**

Satu phrase yang saya suka sangat tentang buku ni
"The real reason why I aggreed to do this at all is because I figure later on when I'm rich and famous I'll have better things to do than answer people's stupid questions all day long". - wimpy kid diary.

Believe me, if you're not yet becoming somebody today, start writing a journal. When you're rich and famous, it will be the most valuable fortune for you! I have 1 my self - gila terus terang admit. But its a journal, not a diary. Ingat lagi zaman sekolah dulu masa cikgu2 English susah payah latih kami menulis journal, tapi kami bantai buat journal tu macam diary. As for me, mula2 jadi diary, lama2 jadi bosan sebab budak lelaki suka pecahkan meja curi journal sebab nak baca diary. Matila kalu ada ex-schoolmate lelaki yang baca blog ni :P

Hoih, beberapa jam saja lagi nak masuk tahun baru. I will write down my resolution once new year has touched down. By the way, Happy New Year!

+*+*~Countdown: 2 Days To Go~*+*+

Hoih, semakin hampir ke penghujung tahun membuatkan jantungku berdebar, dag-dig-dug, dag-dig-dug. Saje seronok nak buat countdown sebab sebelum ni tak pernah appreciate pun kedatangan tahun baru.


Sempena tahun baru ini saya perlu admit, saya adalah seorang yang sangat blur tentang vision. Senang cerita previously saya sangat blur purpose saya di muka bumi Tuhan ini. Saya tidak diajar untuk bermimpi dan hidup saya sangat hambar dan saya hanya biarkan masa saja menentukan jalan hidup saya. Tapi saya sedar bukan itu yang saya mahu, saya mahukan yang lebih dari itu. Saya tak mahu hidup yang biasa2, tapi saya mahukan hidup yang luar biasa. Dengan kemahuan yang kuat terhadap hidup yang luar biasa itu saya mula berimaginasi dan mula belajar apa itu hidup dan mula sedar yang hanya saya yang berhak melakar perjalanan hidup saya.

Lakar punya lakar terkeluar muka Angelina Jollie pulak :P

Dan saya mula belajar,belajar dan belajar. Tapi bukannya belajar secara formal di sekolah (yes, I should be proud with my formal education history, I'm a degree in mechanical engineering you see, but the rest is history), sebaliknya belajar sendiri (self-education) melalui trial and error, observation dan sebagainya. Dan hari inilah kemuncaknya, trial and error saya hampir selesai dan saya akan memulakan langkah yang lebih bertenaga!

Dan hari ini, saya berjaya memulakan hari saya pada jam 9 pagi. Esok hari saya mesti bermula lebih awal lagi.

Another day to go :)

+*+*~Countdown: 3 Days To Go~*+*+

Hoih, cepatnya masa berlalu. Lagi 3 hari nak masuk 2010 ni. Just like my friend Filya, resolution for 2010 tak abis compile lagi ni..hihi. Most probably I will come out my quarterly goals just like I did last year. So far, goals last year for 2nd quarter and 3rd quarter accomplished. Cuma 1st quarter, 4th quarter and holiday wish yang tersangkut. 2010 must be more merrier, at least for me :)

Today started my day at 10 am. Aiyark...really need to improve this. Then straight away to Herbalife HQ, did the stock repurchase and oso I've bought my 2010 Spectacular & 4th Anniversary ticket! Akan menghadiri event itu bersama Kak Zhura, cannot wait! After that, straight away to our house of nutrition. Rumput kat laman dah menampakkan improvement. Dah banyak kaler hijau berbanding kuning, setelah puas saya membaja dan menyikat rumput tu. Dan rumput-rampai yang saya tebas kat belakang rumah tu pun dah nampak kering, esok boleh bakar. Yippie...nampak gaya by new year projek tanaman makanan saya akan dapat di-execute-kan. Sungguh gumbira, menari2 di dalam hati :)

Started from today onwards I've decided that I will spent half day at that house. Doing the gardening and taking care of the house cleanliness. Kata Pak Sheikh, kalau ekosistem kawasan itu bagus, banyak burung2 yang akan datang. Saya mahu burung2 datang ke rumah nutrisi kami, dan saya juga mahu RAMAI orang datang ke rumah kami. Jadi first step is to give life to the house :)

Saya nak cerita lagi pasal Aimar. Baby itu telah duduk tegak dengan jayanya hari ini. According to my mom actually dah 2-3 hari dia dah boleh duduk without support. And oso sudah pandai memanjat ke sana ke mari. Yang bestnya, last week dia memanjat sampai takat melutut saja, this week dah panjat sampai boleh berdiri. Guess that another couple of week dia akan start berdiri lepas tangan, lepas tu...hoih, lu pikir la sendiri. And that baby will only turn to 7th months next week! And I read about bouncing baby dan memang baby Aimar sangat bouncy, setiap hari. Thats why bila orang pegang kaki dia people keep saying that his leg is so strong. Come on man, he's a bouncing baby. Mahu try kah?

Dan dia sangat suka makan! Tiap kali nampak orang bawa mangkuk/pinggan berisi makanan dia akan kejar sambil buat muka excited. Luckily I have Herbalife and I gave him the shake every single day, so of course this amazing product helping me a lot in managing my son's weight. Dan sekarang dia sudah addicted to the shake, kalau susunya tak dicampur dengan Herbalife shake he will refuse to drink his milk and protesting some more. Kalau dah itu makanan yang baik and full of nutrients for him, why must I stop him from taking it, no?

Wait for another countdown tomorrow :)

+*+*~Kaki Terseliuh & Hawaii~*+*+

Picture source from GOOGLE

Aduh...kaki saya terseliuh pulak. Ni semua gara2 terlebih excited main badminton semalam. Tak sedar diri, badan belum cukup ringan ada hati nak buat jumping smash. Sudah rupa seperti beruang panda melompat tau!

Picture source from GOOGLE

Akibatnya, hari ni jalan terhencot-hencot tapi masih bajet ayu semasa ikut hasben pegi kenduri kawin. Dahla masa sampai tu hujan turun lebat, dengan nak letak Aimar dalam stroller lagi, nak lindung dia daripada kena hujan lagi, consequently, saya yang basah kena hujan. Tapi masih kontrol ayu walaupun basah ;P

Dan tiba2 teringat satu post daripada my fren, San San regarding 2010 Holiday to Hawaii. Saya mahu pergi!! Dahla wish holiday untuk tahun 2009 terbantut, tak boleh jadi 2010 saya mesti pergi holiday dan mahu bawa seluruh family bersama. Mungkin boleh buat family gathering sekali, tapi mahukah mereka ikut saya pergi Hawaii. Takpe, yang penting saya mesti mahu pergi!

4 hari lagi sebelum berakhirnya 2009. Mesti mahu set clear picture for 2010!

+*+*~Merry Christmas, hohoho!~*+*+

Picture source from here

Which happened yesterday. Oleh itu semua umat beragama Kristian (juga seluruh rakyat jelata di muka bumi) dapatlah bercuti, termasuklah saya. Dan semalam melayan cerita pasal christmas daripada pagi sampai ke malam. Tapi saya tak ke mana pun, hanya keluar kejap waktu pagi teman sang suami ke tapak projek sambil bawa anak jalan2 makan aircond angin dalam kereta.

Last Tuesday Aimar went for his 6th months check up. Kali ni semua measurement diambil secara menyeluruh sebab next check up bila dia 9 bulan nanti. Tinggi dia dah 66cm dan berat 7.1kg. Patutla separuh pengsan tiap kali saya dukung dia especially time dia tidur. Dan sangat mobile, instead of dah merangkak serumah dan duduk, dia juga sudah pandai memanjat. Kalau tinggalkan dia dalam play pen dia memang dia akan berguling2 seperti beruang panda. Panjat-jatuh-panjat-jatuh tu memang permainan wajib dalam play pen.

And as for me, sekarang masih bekerja keras menumbuh (growing) diri sendiri, especially bab time management yang sangat fail. Kalau ikutkan kegelabahan saya, confirm 24 jam sehari itu adalah tidak cukup. Mana nak handle anak, mana nak handle suami, mana nak handle FB. Mungkin saya akan meminta masa lebih, atau tangan tambahan ataupun klon. Huh..saya dah start merepek. Tapi, saya perlu belajar lebih keras bab time management. Dan weight management saya telah menampakkan hasil yang memberansangkan. Kebanyakan baju zaman anak dara saya dah boleh pakai semula. Sangat happy sampai hari2 senyum sampai ke telinga. Ada sesiapa yang nak join saya?

+*+*~Tentang "dia"~*+*+

Malam2 ni tiba2 rasa macam nak membelog tentang anak saya - Mukhlis Aimar yang sudah berusia 6 bulan. Sungguh cepat masa berlalu, rasa macam baru semalam saya melahirkan dia. -Tipu, sebenarnya dah lupa pun macam mana rasa sakit nak bersalin ari tu. Agaknya sebab semuanya sepantas kilat tu yang tak ingat apa pun tu :P

Di usia 6 bulan, Aimar dah boleh merangkak dan duduk. Skill2 ini telah digenerate sekaligus. Dan dalam masa yang sama sekarang ni dia telah belajar memanjat pula. Kalau pasal melompat, tak payah ceritalah. Memang boleh pengsan dibuatnya, especially kepada sesiapa yang volunteer untuk pegang dia.

Masa mandi adalah paling mencabar sekali. Sekarang ni pantang dia nampak bath tub dia, dia sendiri merangkak pegi kat bath tub dan jengah2 kat dalam bath tub tu. Bila dah duduk dalam bath tub, dengan kita sekali "mandi" dengan dia. Mana taknya, selagi boleh ditendangnya air dalam bath tub tu bagi keluar, macam cuba nak keringkan air dalam bath tub tu. And the latest one, dah pandai tepuk2 air bagi terpercik kat muka pulak.

Lepas mandi, nak pakaikan baju, lagilah mencabar. Memang tiap kali nak pakaikan baju dia, sampai berpeluh la saya dibuatnya. Salah satu cara nak lose weight tanpa pergi ke gym atau jogging track :) Dan sekarang ni sangat2 manja (adakah mengada). Tadi nak tidurkan dia kena nyanyi2kan dia, ajar mengira, peluk2 dia, barulah tido. Oh ya,saya memang train dia daripada sekarang untuk tido jam 10pm, not later than that unless saya terpaksa keluar dan bawa dia bersama.

Makan wise, sekarang ni memang dah start on solid foods. Baby bites, farley's rusks, nestum - you name it. Susu dia - saya bagi dia minum Dupro sahaja sebab susu tu dah lama so tak mungkin ada skandal melamin kan. Tapi susu Dupro tu saya mixkan dengan Herbalife Formula 1 in order nak completekan nutrition nya. Daripada segi pemakanan pun saya dah start train dia untuk eat healthily dan ikut time. Makan 3 kali sehari, dan minum air mesti up to 240ml per day (according to last check up his weight was 6kg, so 6kg x 40ml = 240ml). Esok check up 6 bulan dia so kita tengok berapa naik weight dia.

And 1 more thing, kalau ada kelapangan saya dah start bawa dia pergi ke taman permainan petang2. Nak train dia on socializing dan mesti bersenam. I'm really looking forward to leading him to healthy life style, and he shall start it now. Sekarang dia sudah boleh main jongkang-jongket, buaian dan gelungsur - tapi dengan 100% pengawasan daripada sayalah.

At least, I'm really enjoying my motherhood and my full time house wife's-hood sebab task untuk develop my son in the correct way adalah sangat mencabar dan memerlukan kesabaran yang tinggi. Takpe, yang pentingnya result and I believe it would be the best sacrifrice and investment I've ever made.

+*+*~Projek Tanaman Makanan~*+*+

Sementara menunggu si kecik itu bangun. Actually hari ni saya plan nak settelkan separuh lagi kerja menebas kat rumah nutrition kami. Tadi nampak macam langit cerah je, tapi skarang ni nampak macam redup pulak. Janganlah hujan dulu. Kalau stay redup je macam ni kira oklah, taklah letih sangat waktu buat kerja nanti.

Actually, di rumah nutrisi kami itu adalah tanah sekangkang kera. Ni betul punya sekangkang kera, sebab bila kera tu kangkang confirm tulah ukurannya. Sekangkang kera bahagian depan rumah, sekangkang kera belakang rumah. Kat depan tu saya plan nak tanam pokok2 herba yang boleh dimakanlah (contohnya, daun kesum, daun pandan, kucai). Yang penting pokok2 herba tu boleh acting as pokok hiasan sekali.

Sekangkang kera kat belakang rumah tu saya plan nak tanam pokok yang tak hiasan sangat macam pokok halia, atau pokok sayur-sayuran macam timun, kacang panjang, labu dan yang sewaktu dengannya. And oso, adalah ruang kecil in between bilik belakang and laman belakang, bolehlah buat projek hidroponic kat situ. Saya janjikan dengan husband saya, zaman2 recession ni, tak perlu risau lagi pasal makanan. Sebab saya akan start menanam tanaman makanan, so kalau nak beli bahan makanan pun at least kami boleh control perbelanjaan. Insya Allah, saya akan update tentang projek ini time to time dan saya akan explain what is my main objective by doing this instead of a little bit saving during this recession.

Yang pentingnya, saya perlu high light kat sini. Most of us opt to buy everything from the market and what not sebab

1. malas nak menanam sendiri
2. kawasan rumah terhad atau rumah tiada tanah
3. tiada tenaga untuk bekerja-tani seperti ini
4. dan lain-lain

Actually saya perlu bagitau kat sini, banyak kebaikan yang kita dapat kecapi bila kita buat sedikit perubahan dan buat aktiviti seperti ini

1. Kita dapat make sure quality of our vegetables (currently banyak petani yang menggunakan baja kimia dan pesticide in order to increase their vegetables production). So kita dapat pastikan makanan kita mempunyai nilai nutrisi yang tinggi, and fresh some more.
2. Kita dapat mengeluarkan peluh, dalam kata lain bersenam di rumah sendiri tanpa perlu pergi ke gym ataupun jogging track
3. Kita boleh create new hobby yang boleh melibatkan orang lain (in my case they will be my husband and my son) so dalam masa yang sama dapat mengukuhkan institusi kekeluargaan.

Semalam dah pergi melawat Tok Ngah di Puchong. Kecek dia benih pokok macam serai, daun pandan, halia...dan yang sewaktu dengannya. In terms of baja, I use natural organic fertilizer ber-brandkan TONMAI untuk tanah and GANDA untuk pokok, teknologi daripada Thailand. Will blog about it later.

Actually husband saya tiada sampai Sabtu ini, kena out station. I'll make sure that all my task will be completed by the time he came back here as a present for him. :) And later on saya boleh launch kempen kat neighbourhood tu pula tentang tanaman makanan kat rumah.

Oh ya, masa visit Tok Ngah, jumpa anak kak Syakira, Amir. Baru 11 tahun tapi berat badan dia dah mencecah 90kg. High risk of diabetec and semua penyakit kronik sebab inactive and obesity. Need to discuss with Kak Syakira and offer some food therapy for his son, otherwise memang dia tak sempat tua lah jawabnya. This is my responsibilty, need to settel it!

+*+*~6 Months, Hair Falls, Crawling, Sitting & Solid Foods~*+*+

Ini namanya update sekali harung selepas 2 minggu..hehe :P Kebizian sikit lately thats why bersawang bagai blog ni. Takpe, kita bawa penyapu kasi buang itu cob-web2 semua..hiii :D

Basically, my Aimar had turned 6 months officially. Skarang ni dia dah boleh merangkak, dan duduk dalam masa yang sama. 2 skills develop at the same time...menarik bukan? Tapi yang pengsan for sure lah mamanya..oso ada chancelah lose weight secara natural juga. Just that kena berhati-hati sikit dengan mamat ni sebab exploration dia memang sangat hebat skarang ni. Macam malam tadi, dia bangun pukul 4.30am and refused to sleep. Saya memang tengah mamai bagai masa tu so babah dialah yang take turn melayan dia. Ntah macam mana husband saya boleh terlelap and bila dia tersedar mamat tu dah hilang daripada pandangan. Rupanya dia telah explore area makan dan dah samapi depan pintu bilik parents saya. (Notes: disebabkan dia sangat lasak sekarang ni kami opt untuk tido di ruang tamu sahaja).

Dan memandangkan Aimar sudah 6 bulan sekarang ni, I need to introduce solid foods to him. I mean bukan I need, I MUST sebab banyak petanda yang dia tunjukkan to show he is ready for solid foods. Instead of signs yang saya dapati daripada baby center, Aimar telah memberi petanda dia sendiri iaitu merampas makanan daripada tangan saya. Aiyaaa...baby 6 bulan boleh rampas makanan kah? Tapi itulah anak saya :) And that is what good and complete nutrition can do to a baby.

Finally, cerita pasal hair falls. Before this saya pernah dengar myths yang mengatakan kalau baby dah mula menyembur2 air liur rambut mak dia mesti gugur. At first susah saya nak percaya sebab no scientific explanation on that. Apa yang saya faham, rambut gugur sebab kekurangan iron dalam badan. TAPI, that's what happened to me now. Rambut-gugur-gila-babeng punya. And am still wonder, adakah kejadian ini disebabkan air liur the baby or what? Hari tu Aimar main gigit2 kepala husband saya (see, betapa ganasnya baby ini), tiba2 seketul air liur dia jatuh atas kepala husband saya tapi takde pulak gugur rambut dia kat area situ. Ada sesiapa boleh merungkaikan kemusykilan saya ini?

+*+*~Aidil Adha Yang Mandom~*+*+

Sebelum terlambat, Salam Aidil Adha kepada seluruh umat Islam di seluruh dunia.

Sambutan Aidil Adha tahun ni seperti biasa sahaja. Rasanya rata2 umat Islam pun menyambut Aidil Adha ni pun biasa2 saja kan, taklah berhabis bagai macam Aidil Fitri. Cuma siapa yang terlibat dengan ibadah Haji mungkin merasa ke-excited-annya. Ala, apa la nak kecoh dengan raya Haji, dulu masa zaman sekolah saya biasa je tak balik beraya dengan keluarga. Takde pun siri drama lagu dendang perantau masa raya haji pun.

Tapi tahun ni lagi tak best sebab family kecil saya semuanya down with fever. Dimulakan dengan empunya diri yang jatuh demam sakit kuat hanya disebabkan terlebih hidu asap ubat nyamuk cap ikan zaman berzaman. Lepas tu berjangkit pada suaminya pula dan lebih parah bila berpindah pada si kecil pula. Yang tak bestnya, saya demam sorang2, tapi hubby and Aimar demam beregu (dua2 demam dalam satu masa). Jadi yang tak tido malamnya tentulah saya. Masa saya demam, 2-2 orang tu bukan main lena lagi tidonya.

Si kecik tu pulak, lagi best citernya. Dah baik demam macam2 lagi skill baru dia generate. Lagi best dah pandai nangis memberontak tanak tido malam. Bila jam dah menunjukkan pukul 12 tengah malam, masa tulah mata dia lagi bulat nak main play gym dia. Wah..wah..wah...ada hati nak jadi batman ke anak saya ni?

Sampai di sini sahaja cerita tentang raya. Si kecik sudah bangun dari tidur pula. Saya pun tak mandi pagi lagi ni asyik kena layan kerenah dia saja. Nak settlekan laundry lagi ni. Haihh...rasa macam nak ronda2 cuci mata kat Alamanda pun ada....

+*+*~Eating Healthily, Calories Counting & Lose Weight~*+*+

adalah 3 perkara yang berkait rapat bukan? Sejak saya join Weight Lose Challenge (read:WLC) classes, semakin seram dan alertnya saya dengan pemakanan seharian.

Contohnya, mahu berdiet and opt for vegies, suddenly letak dressing macam salad dressing, coleslaw dressing or mayonnaise adalah big NO-NO. Kalau mahu juga silalah rujuk kepada nutritional facts dan lihat dengan teliti especially bahagian "kalori" and serving size. Kalau malas, silalah elakkan.

Actually theres a pros and cons la bila kita dah start aware dengan 3 perkara ini. The pros side, you can have more colours in your foods (recommended minimum 6 colours in your daily foods intake) and of course you'll be able to taste many type of ingredients. Cons nya, silalah penuhkan fridge in order nak satisfy various colours of ingredients dan groceries shopping akan mengambil masa yang lebih lama sebab sibuk nak menelek nutritional facts kat belakang setiap packaging. But the choice is ours...depend on how we evaluate it and how we appreciate our health.

For me, I opt for the easiest way. Actually saya ada scale Tanita which can tell me about my Basal Metabolic Rate (read: BMR). What is BMR? It shows how much my body can burn the calories in 1 day with minimal activities. Currently my reading is around 1450kcal (which is still considered low for my size). So the secret is to ensure my calory intake is lower than this reading and cumulative of 4000kcal less (maybe in 1 week) will help me to lose 1 kg. Extra of 4000kcal will contribute to extra 1 kg. So what is the easiest way? I will lock my breakfast calory intake by taking Herbalife yummy-licious breakfast which is up to 280kcal, and take control of my lunch intake, especially on rice intake and repeat with Herbalife yummy-licious dinner which is around 280kcal again. And now I'm seriously avoiding snacks and beverages. And I will make sure i drink minimum of 3l of water per day.

And the result is, I shape up a lot and manage to lose another kg! Seriously, now I can wear back all my clothes that I have dump in my closet for 2 years! I'll upload my latest picture soon, when I've bought my card reader.

Yes...another 15 kg to go before I reach my ideal weight. My target it will be before end of this year...bolehkah?

+*+*~He Turns 5!!~*+*+

Hihi...bukan 5 years ye...but 5 months. Alhamdulillah...tak sangka Mukhlis Aimar telah menyempurnakan 5 bulannya bersama kami. You're really our bundle of joy. Eventho at one time (most of the time actually) I feel like I'm giving up but I really thanked God that He sent you to us.

Mukhlis Aimar, u have turned 5 months today. Mama is so proud of u. I can turn your body so well now, u love to stand (of course by asking other peoples hand) and your cheeky smile really melt my heart away. And the best thing now u can realize who is your mama, your babah and other people as well. And i'm also proud as you grow as a healthy and happy baby. You allow me to stay focus on my work without having to worry about u so much as u never had fever and other diseases as well. I'm really proud of u my baby.

And what ever it takes, u will always be my baby. We love u so much!

+*+*~November Goals~*+*+

Sometimes when my life is so damn hectic, I try to figure out whats wrong with it. I know that life is not suppose to be that hectic and I found out I have a big problem...really BIG problem. I never put any target or goal upon the works that I need to finish out. Maybe I used to be a good slave before, putting my life in others people hand, but the best thing is I dont have to set any goal for myself. Other people is deciding how my life should be and what is my goal every month and every year. But, when I felt like such life is so boring, I decided to drive my own life, that is my BIG problem --> I never set a goal for myself!

But, no problem! Leaders are always improving a little bit from day to day. Dont wish it were easier, wish you were better. So here I am, setting my GOAL for this month of NOVEMBER (still early kan for me to set this? wink :P)

My NOVEMBER GOAL

Herbalife

1. Invite 40 people to HOM this month
2. Help 5 downlines to get 10 healthy breakfast customers each.
3. Help 10 people to improve their health by improving their breakfast.
4. Help 3 people to lose weight.

Personal.

1. Finish Leadership Development Program notes by end of this month.
2. Finish 2 sections of 360 degree leader by John Maxwell.
3. Update my blog at least once in 2 days time.
4. Buy liquid foundation which is almost finish by the middle of the month (out topic ;P)

So, need to set my sail towards my goal!

+*+*~My Weekend~*+*+

Isy...terasa bo*ngok menulis tajuk entry seperti ini. Tapi sebab ini adalah belog saya so ada sesiapa kesah? ;P

Haih...sejak dua menjak ni saya terperasan yang hujung minggu saya memanglah sangat hectic. Kalau orang lain, hujung minggula masa untuk bersama teman2 ke, keluar dengan family ke atau paling best tido tak bangun2 ke, tapi saya takde chancelah untuk semua itu. Damn...am start comparing :(.

But its ok la, saya berjanji dengan diri saya hidup macam ni adalah untuk jangka masa 2 tahun saja. Lepas tu, saya akan start kerja selama 90 hari saja untuk setiap quarter and as a reward for my hard work is 1 week vacations! Thats mean 4 vacations in a year...yeay!!

Saja nak jot down the activities

Saturday

Pagi2 dah keluar sebab ada 90 days plan meeting. This time Farhani propose to change our meeting agenda (damn, I didnt email to them yet). Then continue with WLC until 1 pm. As soon as WLC finish, rush back to Kajang because I need to send my mother and Aimar back home then rush back to HBL office in Raja Chulan. Jangan tak percaya, saya telah mula merempit semula sebab that is the best and the most practical transportation to travel in middle KL. Jumpa Dev for his monthly evaluation and found out that he has lost another 3 kg which means in total he lost total of 27 kg in 6 months! Then sat down with him and Abdolreza for awhile. Sent Abdolreza for Basic training and continue discussion with Dev. I really want to help him to build up this business and help him to develop his self-esteem as well. Then at 5pm Dev went back and continue discussion with Abdolreza. Went back home at 7pm. Dalam perjalanan suddenly hujan lebat then terpaksalah basah lencun sampai kat rumah. Tukar baju then siap2 pegi Mines together with hubby and Aimar. Actually the intention nak pegi bayar bil Maxis, then tersesat pula pegi shoppingkan baju untuk Aimar and make up for me. Pas tu balik at 11pm terus pengsan tido sebab dah tak larat sangat.

Sunday

Woke up at 9 am, tu pun sebab si kecik tu asyik pukul2 muka suruh bangun. Straight pegi mandi then mandikan Aimar pulak. 11 am ada appoinment dengan Juliana for her monthly evaluation then straight to Taman Melati ada kenduri kawin kat sana and found out daging kurma kat situ adalah sangat marvellous. Today I tried my new makeup (consist of new lipstick - bronze colour, eye shadow - almost the same shade and blusher also bronze) and found out adalah sangat yummy and menepati citarasa saya. Then rush balik rumah sebab suppose ada appoinment dengan Wellheirnie at 4pm. Tapi sebab hujan lebat sangat she cannot make it so postphone to next Sunday. 5 pm heading to my eldest brother house in Semenyih, 1st time pun pegi visit rumah dia since dia moved there. About 7:15pm balik semula to my mother's and lepas tu terus pegi Tesco. I need to buy a new clear holder to bring along for tomorrow roadshow. Then balik rumah and buat preparation for tomorrow's roadshow and buat facial with Herbalife's skin care and love it so much!

And here I am, still facing the PC. Banyak benda nak settle lagi ni and received call from Richard this evening saying that his seasoning is ready for market and will receive Halal certification in December. Once he got it that seasoning is ready to go into market and he still appoint me to market his product. See, thats why I need to qualify as GET team by this January, after that I can start looking at another business opportunity but still Herbalife will be my number 1 business! And need to help my husband to prepare some bahan for his leadership program that will be launched soon. Haih...I need to arrange my schedule properly otherwise semua benda berterabur and tak siap nanti.

+*+*~This Really Make Me Burst Into Tears~*+*+

Its not because I'm sad or I'm mad...but it is because I'm so happy and excited!

Straf Design Boutique Hotel, Milan. Picture source from Google.

Bulgari Boutique Hotel, Milan. Picture source from Google.

The Gray Boutique Hotel, Milan. Picture source from Google.

Its luxury boutique hotel in Milan by the way. Let us blame the AFC, ada ka patut diaorang bawa saya ke Milan hari ni, siap tunjuk how their fashion and boutique hotels look like. Arghh...after 2011 definitely I want to go there so in this 2 years silalah bekerja keras dan kumpul duit banyak2...baru syok nak pegi shopping-mopping. :)

Ye...otak saya telah mula berangan-angan membawa saya ke sana, eventho I never been to any Europe country but I always dream to go there, especially to Italy. And I also read that Berlin also is the best place for boutique hotel like this and Paris and London. Wahh...ni macam tengok iklan designer je....Paris, London, Milan, yada...yada. Yes, after this I should go and try those boutique hotel. And also I really want to go to Vegas. Last STS, Shai Nafte the millionaire team show us the view from the suite from one of the famous hotel in Vegas. He showed us how the dancing fountain looks like and I really want to see it for real one day!

I believe I can get it all, definitely will!

+*+~Time Management: If U Find Something U're Doing That Cannot Bring U Closer To Your Goal, Stop And Leave It!~*+*+

Yeah right! I got this from Hemang Pandit, Senior Executive President's Team Member from India. Its simple isnt it and make sense too.

Well, right now I got a little bit back pain and sore throat. Actually my throat is not that soar but to be exact I lost my voice. Shoot! My voice is the most precious thing for me right now (besides my phone and Tanita Scale) and without it I really cannot focus well on my business. Arghh...please return my voice back! And this back pain, I got it since I gave birth to my son, I hate it so much! Maybe a good massage will relief it. So, Mr.Hubby dearie, can u please find place for me to get that treat..please...please..*wink*

Sometimes a little voice inside me start to ask me to go to vacation. Wait my dear...I have to avoid this for a while because it will not bring me closer to my goal. U see, I really want to be a President's Team in 2011, so please. I need to focus on my goal and after I reach to my President's Team level I have more time to do that :). So, first forget about vacation!

And sometimes that little voice of me will ask me to go back to work. Just because I miss that working environment. Hold on...that definitely won't bring me closer to my goal! It will take me far from it because I know that I can be the best slave you can ever imagine. So, just forget about it, my goal now is to be President's Team and be the boss to myself for the rest of my life!

Aiyaaa...this is just a rambling of me. I want my voice back, that's it!

+*+*~Bukan Mudah Menuju Puncak~*+*+

They said "Its like climbing the mountain. The view is always the most beautiful when u're at the top not at the bottom".

Haih...memang saya akui, bukan mudah nak menuju ke puncak. Kalau sesiapa yang kenal saya mesti tertanya-tanya, kenapa jalan ini yang saya pilih. Well, frankly, saya berasal dari ordinary traditional family - harus pergi ke sekolah, get university degree, find a job, get retired and waiting the time to die. However, bila saya dah dapat university degree and got a job, saya mula merasa BOSAN. Bekerja untuk orang lain dan melakukan kerja yang sama setiap hari benar-benar membosankan saya.

So, saya mengambil langkah drastik dengan meninggalkan segala kerjaya saya dan memulakan hidup baru. Cuma saya tak tau dari mana harus saya mulakan. Apa yang ada pada saya masa tu hanyalah impian dan harapan. Saya bercita-cita untuk bekerja di tengah2 kota metropolitan Kuala Lumpur, bekerja dengan international company dan bekerja dengan foreigners. Itulah cita2 saya.

Puaslah saya mencari pekerjaan yang memenuhi kriteria saya itu. Harapan saya dengan pengalaman bekerja selama 3 tahun itu cukuplah untuk saya "menjual" diri saya. Tapi kenyataan tak semudah apa yang saya fikirkan. Cubaan2 saya untuk mendapat pekerjaan yang saya impikan itu hanyalah impian semata2, persaingan sangatlah hebat, hanya yang terbaik saja layak untuk mengabdikan diri di tengah2 kota metropolitan Kuala Lumpur.

Sehinggalah saya berjumpa dengan fantastic company bernama Herbalife. Actually setelah hampir fed up mencari kerja ke sana dan ke mari, akhirnya saya membuat keputusan untuk bekerja daripada rumah saja. A magic click on the "Work From Home" advertisement yang menemukan saya dengan fantastic company ini and with my fantastic partner too.

Its really a dream come true company. See my criteria:-

1. Saya nak bekerja di tengah2 kota metropolitan KL - Herbalife HQ terletak di Jalan Raja Chulan, KL. Tak ke tengah2 KL namanya tu? And also, our distributor office situated at Jalan Changkat Raja Chulan, just behind the HQ, so memang saya dapat peluang utk bekerja di tengah2 KL lah :).

2. I want to work with international company - Herbalife originally from USA, listed in NYSE (top 10 US company some more), 29 years in business, already in 70 countries (going to be 71 in November).

3. I want to work with foreigners - my partner & coach is from US and Taiwan, so tak ke namanya saya bekerja dengan foreigner tu.

4. As a bonus - I can work with my own time, no stress and I'm the one who responsible to design my work and my future with this company.

See, thats why I really appreciate this company so much. Its really a dream come true company. And on Saturday I met Abdolreza from Iran. Seems like he is interested so much with this company business, so most probably I will get another foreigner business partner. And amazingly, he can listen to me and listen to my recommendation. Huaaa...tak taula macam mana nak describe my feeling now. Most probably next year (2010), Herbalife will spread their wing to Dubai, so by that time I shall be ready to spread my wings as well together. Wahh...I cannot imagine when I am 30 years old I already have a chance to do international business. I'm so excited and can't wait for that moment to come!

So now, pedulilah apa orang nak kata pun. Kalau ada orang kata saya gila dan mereng sebab memilih jalan seperti ini saya hanya akan anggukkan kepala dan berkata "I can be more crazy than u can ever imagine". What I know now is this company really change me and I manage to be a better person from day to day just by doing business in the right way with this company. I love Herbalife so much!

And I tell u what, its really hard to climb to the top, but the view will be the most beautiful from the top. It doesnt matter whether u can climb faster and slowly, the most important thing is u keep climbing and make sure that u will reach the top!

+*+*~I Can't Believe It, Can U??~*+*+

Am so excited to blog about this, as I never believe and never think that I will get this chance in my life!

Well, today is Saturday, which means its interview day. Normally, I will give a call, let say starting from Wednesday for those who really seriously looking for extra income, and I will invite them for the interview session on Saturday. My job is easy, just ring out the phone, introduce a little bit about who we are and we're doing and invite them for the interview, that's it! And the amazing thing is I never know who they are and what is their background (so they are :P).

So today, as usual, after the company presentation and what not, I start to attend those who came for the interview session today. And guess what? Today, all my guest are foreigners! 1 from Pakistan, 2 from Iran. So after had some chat with them, and roughly asked what they are looking for in this company, I got this man, his name is Abdolreza. Happen to be now he's studying English in KBU. And he asked me a lot of killer question about the business. And after I explain to him briefly about the business, about the system and what not, then only I found out that he was a businessman (multi-million company) from Iran and just came here to study English! Can you believe that? I'm interviewing an experienced businessman (of course more experience than me), foreigner and amazing thing is I manage to interview him in English!

Knowing me, how bad my English is...I still remember my first interview with 1 of the public listed company in Malaysia (which happened that my uncle is the CEO of this company), I got a feedback from the interviewer (which I got this from my aunt), they said that my English is like "Kelantanese English" (no offense to Kelantanese, but this is how bad they try to picture my English was). But today, I"M INTERVIEWING THE FOREIGNER IN ENGLISH AND HE CAN UNDERSTAND ME AND THE BUSINESS AS WELL! And tomorrow he is coming to the biggest training ever on the earth by HERBALIFE! I cannot believe this! I'm slapping my self just to make sure that I'm not dreaming! Its really a dream come true! :D HERBALIFE really change my life!

And also now I'm actively doing the weight loss challenge for the public in order to help those who really serious to lose some weight and giving back to the community and sharpening my skill in coaching people to lose weight as well. So after this, don't be afraid, for those who really need my coaching about healthy eating habits, healthy life style and to stay healthy forever, I would love to help you a lot and share my experiences with you!

Now I want to go to bed. Actually I would love to blog something about my son, Aimar, but I need to go to bed now because I have a big day tomorrow. Guess what, I'm having a training from Hemang Pandit, Executive Senior President's Team (with 2 diamonds) from India! So I need to save my energy so much, otherwise I cannot focus in my training. I'll blog about Aimar later :)

+*+*~When Blogging Seems So Boring...~*+*+

Lately saya sangat malas membelog. Bukanlah hidup saya terlalu hambar, tapi saya rasa bosan sangat membelog sekarang ni. Ni semua akibat semua entry saya adalah bosan sebab tiada gambar-gambir (haih...dah bertahun blogging macam ni baru nak perasan?). Hmmm...I have to admit that people change...so, selera saya pun akan berubah mengikut peredaran zaman...ye tak?

Minggu lepas kehidupan saya adalah sangat hectic sebab saya telah membuat pertunjukkan jalan (read: roadshow) di Persidangan Agung UMNO 2009 bertempat di PWTC, KL. Haih...bila attend exhibition macam ni mulalah buat saya berfikir...banyak gila rupanya kerja saya sebab kesedaran tentang kesihatan di kalangan orang Melayu adalah sangat rendah. Mentaliti orang Melayu ni...asalkan boleh ngap apa saja masuk dalam mulut tu lebih penting daripada ambil tahu apa yang sepatutnya disuapkan dalam mulut mereka. I have to tell them that the foods that they eat daily can kill them...if they don't start taking care of what they eat! Sorry tiada gambar sepanjang roadshow kami di sana walaupun saya ada bawa kamera sebab problem saya sekarang PC saya tiada card reader. So, kalau amik gambar bagai nak rak pun, takde makna kalau saya tak boleh transfer. (alasan)

Sudah!! Balik2 cerita takde card reader so takleh transfer gambar. Lepas ni pegi The Mines pegi borong semua makbapakdatuknenekcucucicit card reader kat situ.

Today onwards, hidup saya akan jadi lebih hectic lagi. Group effort - kitorang tengah orgnize Community Weight Loss Challenge in order to help people to lose weight. Our own effort - going to hold Family Nutrition Center so ada 2 minggu saja untuk settelkan invitation, advertising and what not. Hectic memang la hectic, tapi I'm really excited sebab dah tak sabar nak share and bantu orang lain jadi sihat juga :).

Haih...okla. Back to work. Nanti bila saya dah beli card reader I will excitedly update this blog again.

+*+*~Sibuk...Sibuk...~*+*+

Saya cuba untuk meluangkan masa untuk update blog ini supaya semak samun tidak tumbuh dan labah-labah pun takut mahu buat sarang (apa kau merepek ni labuuu??). Tapi suddenly kerja saya menjadi saaaangat banyak dan tidak cukup tangan untuk dihandle.

Memandangkan sekarang statistic obesiti di Malaysia telah meningkat ke 60%, saya sebagai wellness coach perlu bekerja keras lagi untuk:-
1. Turunkan berat badan saya ke berat badan ideal dengan kadar yang sangat segera - saya perlu ringankan lagi badan saya supaya saya boleh bergerak lebih pantas dan membantu menyelesaikan masalah obesiti dengan kadar yang sangat segera.
2. Turunkan berat badan suami saya lagi 20kg dengan kadar yang sangat segera juga - otherwise dia dah start letih2 dan malas2 nak buat kerja. Susahlah ini macam...
3. Cari 25 orang yang serius nak turunkan berat badan - i need to help more people and new testimonies too!!
4. Cari lagi ramai wellness coach - aaaaa kerja saya dah banyak sangat sampai saya nak update blog pun tak sempat.

Kalau previously saya tak strict sangat dengan diet saya - still bantai makan whenever I feel like eating - tapi sekarang ni saya dah start cut off nasi - I opt for tofu and high protein diet - dan saya perlu mulakan exercise activity saya - actually pegi jogging sambil cari orang yang saya boleh tolong untuk turun berat badan dan buat promosi weight loss challenge -. Petang ni should go to Tasik Permaisuri, 1 round dulu kira ok kot. Kena test juga stamina level macam mana lepas dah dekat 2 tahun stop my sports activity ni.

More wellness coach needed!! And do you know that obesity contribute to global warming? I will publish it here later. Ini sudah kes serious, patutla Malaysia makin panas dan kurang hujan :( Rupanya statistik obesiti dah meningkat!

+*+*~Berhenti Membelog Itu Hanyalah Rekaan Semata-Mata~*+*+

Haih...macam mana lah saya nak meninggalkan blog kesayangan saya ni sepi tanpa berita begitu sahaja. Puas saya menahan diri daripada mengingati blog ini, tapi bila nak makan teringat blog ni (remember my weight lose ticker?), bila nak tido teringat blog ni (as my son sleeping beside me, so remember his age ticker) and bila pegi office atau sedang menjalankan kerja saya pun saya akan teringat kat blog ni (remember my marriage ticker?). Pendek kata, ticker itu memainkan peranan penting dalam perjalanan blog ini..haih...

Oleh itu, saya announcekan di sini, saya tak berniat mahu memprivatekan blog ini mahupun berhenti membelog..(sebenarnya ni semua sebab my old friend, Komeng. -if u read this entry-. U're rawk..!! and u know my reason why kan..hehe :P)

And also, dengan rasminya saya mengannouncekan di sini SAYA ADALAH PERSONAL WELNESS COACH, jadi sesiapa yang berminat untuk menurunkan berat badan, menambah berat badan, improvekan kesihatan atau mempelajari healthy eating habit, silalah contact saya di alamat email di sebelah :)

Ok, saya nak cerita juga tentang profile saya sebagai wellness coach. Actually, dah ada 5 orang yang serious yang saya telah bantu untuk mengurangkan berat badan (for the time being am focusing on losing weight). Saya loadkan gambar 3 customer saya dulu :)

This is me. During end of my pregnancy, my weight shhot up to 89kg! Bayangkan betapa besar rumahnya saya :( However, throughout my pregnancy saya dah mula belajar tentang healthy eating habit which is good for me and my baby as well, right? So, actually, my additional is not that much...only 6kg extra is not that bad kan? So now u know what's my actual problem right? I was overweight since my reception day...uwaa!!To prove it let me show u...

During my solemnization day

During my reception day

Apa motif ntah amik gambar macam ni? Macam nak buat comparison, sape lagi besar bunga atau saya??Chist!!

See...I've told u. Saya adalah BESAR since I got married lagi. Before that I only weighted 58 kg tapi masa my reception ni I was 80 kg!! And can u see me when I was 76 kg...much more beautiful kan? And believe me, when I've shed another 13kg I will be more beautiful and younger than this!

This is my beloved husband. When he started on Herbalife weight lose program he was 153 kg! What an eating monster kan?

During solemnization day

Hang buah...hahah :D (Sori Yang kalu u baca entry ni)

Ni gambar masa our wedding day. Masa tu dia pun adalah BESAR - the reason why saya pun memBESARkan diri, supaya balance di atas pelamin..ngahaha :D And yang lebih menyedihkan....

1st attempt

2nd attempt

Tengok...muka kitorang tak muat dalam LOVE shape tu sebab 2-2 adalah BULAT dan BESAR...hahaha... (now u know the reason why I never upload any of our wedding picture in anywhere). Agaknya puaslah photographer tu nak adjust lense kamera dia supaya muka kitorang masuk kat dalam shape tu...hihi :P

And finally, this is our friend whom recently we help to lose weight. His name is Devaraj from Klana Jaya. When we first met him, his weight was 122 kg and he kept complaining that he got a gout (which I believe its not gout actually but his leg was in pain because of his weight). See his shrinking progress. I believe he will shrinking more in another 3 months time :).

I'll upload another 2, tapi basically I've helped them to lose more than 3 kgs and shape up their waist line up to 5 inches!!

So, kalu ada sesiapa yang seriously nak lose weight and learn how to start healthy eating habit sila email kepada saya ye sebab saya sangat2 willing untuk membantu...as long as u open your heart and open your mind :).

+*+*~Mahu Berhenti Membelog?~*+*+

First of all, selamat menyambut aidilfitri...belum terlambat rasanya saya mengucapkan salam perayaan kepada seluruh umat Islam di dunia walaupun seperti biasa saya masih keliru dengan perayaan ini :)

Saya baru saja pulang daripada kampung halaman suami saya di Gemas. Sepanjang pemerhatian saya sepanjang percutian ini membuatkan hati saya menjerit...banyak sungguh tanggungjawab saya yang belum selesai. Tambahan pula, semalam sewaktu bersiap2 mahu pergi menziarahi jiran tetangga, suami saya sambil memegang anak kecil kami di atas buaian dikelilingi anak2 buahnya telah berkongsi impiannya bersama mereka "2011 nanti jemputlah ke rumah Achu di Ampang". Dan sambutan positif daripada anak buahnya "Mak su, nanti kalau kitorang je yang datang tapi kalau ibu taknak ikut boleh ke?" membuatkan hati saya lebih menjerit lagi. Saya perlu bekerja keras untuk merealisasikan impian suami saya dan anak2 buahnya (kadangkala kita terlupa pada impian kita, tapi kita boleh jadikan impian orang lain untuk menjadi titik tolak kejayaan kita :))

Dengan itu, mungkin saya akan berhenti blogging buat sementara waktu. Saya perlu fokus kepada impian2 yang perlu saya tunaikan. Wish me luck!

+*+*~I Tell You What...~*+*+

The training was over and its time to create the momentum!!

The best event of the year on the planet earth should I say :)! Will post some of the photos later. Now going back to bed first :)

~Aimi.Mukhlis, live from Taipei,Taiwan~

+*+*~We're Leaving Tomorrow :)~*+*+

Haihh...pejam-celik-pejam-celik, tau2 dah sampai 10th September, which means our flight to Taiwan will be tomorrow! My coach a.k.a business partner will leave today. I will be leaving with another group tomorrow.

Aiyayaiyayai....tak packing apa pun lagi ni. Because Aimar will go together with us I believe barang2 dia pun dah 1 gerabak. Kalau barang mak-pak dia takde hal punya. Pandai2la lu nak survive. Since we're going there for quite a while (Khamis-Selasa) so kena particular sikitla dengan barang2 dia ni. Otherwise we will ended kena shopping kat Taiwan la nampak gayanya. Hoih...orang suruh pegi sana attend training, bukan shopping sakan cik adik (??) manis woii.

And because of this H1N1 epidermic, actually currently Aimar and I are fighting with the fever (babahnya juga ye). Hari tu Aimar macam kena selsema sikit pastu berjangkit pada mamanya and later babahnya. Then semalam his 3rd month check up, so kena 2nd dose jab - slight fever lagilah. Nak tanak memang kena fight with the feverlah, otherwise babah and mak tok sajalah yang ke Taiwan, mama and Aimar will be stranded at the airport..tsk..tsk.

So hari ni memandangkan no interview activities and what not, I should focus on packing job. Flight kul 10 am lak esok pagi, which means pukul 8 am dah kena ada kat LCCT. So around 7 am dah kena kluar dari rumah and pukul 6 am macam tu dah kena start bersiap. Haiyaa...apa benda pun tak masuk beg lagi nih.

Dah..dah..move your lazy but*t and start doing the laundry before u can start packing this evening.

+*+*~Berangan Di Bulan Ramadhan~*+*+

Haih...keje adalah sangat banyak. Nak siapkan tools untuk part-timer, tools for new supervisor, outline for leadership course, preparation for my daily job routine tomorrow....tapi masih sempat berangan. Apakah?

Berangan No.1 - Saya mahu iPod Nano Chrome.

Picture courtesy from Apple

Hari tu ikut hubby pegi ke Apple Center (lupa lak nama kedai tu) kat Pavillion sebab dia nak usha iPhone 3Gs dia and the accessories. Masa dok tunggu2 dia tu tertengok la ini benda. Sungguh mencairkan jiwa! Dan bila saya dapat tau yang saya boleh load video juga menggunakan iPod ini terus saya jatuh chenta. Nampak gaya kena masuk dalam wish list lah kalu macam ni. I opt for green colour or red colour one. Mesti beli by end of this year!

Berangan No.2 - Saya mahu office suite.

Rasanya saya tak mau kerja dari rumah selamanya. Cuma buat sementara waktu ini saya perlu beroperasi daripada rumah untuk mengurangkan overhead cost. Nanti bila bisnes saya dah berkembang maju, saya mahukan office saya sendiri. Actually saya adalah seorang yang sangat workaholic so saya mahukan office saya selesa seperti di rumah dan saya mahu bawa anak (-anak) saya ke ofis semasa saya bekerja. Tak kiralah masa tu saya dah menggunakan perkhidmatan maid atau belum yang penting anak (-anak) saya mesti berada di depan mata saya walaupun sewaktu saya bekerja. Dengan itu saya akan membuat sebuah nursery khas untuk colleague2 saya yang lain. (Saya tak suka memanggil mereka sebagai employee...saya tak layak untuk jadi boss, tapi saya hanya layak untuk lead mereka sahaja). So, I opt for office suite and in my head this is how my office will look like.

Overall layout and reception area.

Picture from Google

Actually highlight dia adalah dinding2 cermin and wood floor tu. Setiap Mill team ke atas akan dapat bilik ini seorang 1 and setiap dinding akan diperbuat daripada cermin. Kalau nak privacy sikit kita letakkan plastic curtain. And setiap bilik should have their own sofa for their guest.

Picture from Google

Yang ni pulak highlight dia adalah tempat rehat yang ada sofa kaler hitam tu. Actually I plan to do this as discussion area or waiting area or tempat untuk customers duduk2 sambil kita bagi khidmat nasihat pemakanan mereka. Sambil duduk2 tu they will be served with our yummy shakes and tea mix.

Supervisor Work Station

Picture from Google

Highlight dalam gambar ni is layout of the work station. This will be my supervisors work station. Green in colour of course sempena theme colour of Herbalife. And computer tu would be from Apple as well. Abaikan balcony itu as I dont think this office should have the balcony at work station area - sebab saya tak mahu staff yang merokok. But that area should be dinding kaca yang mengadap pemandangan yang indah (i.e-KLCC atau apa2 bangunan pencakar langit yang sayup mata memandang).

GET Team Work Station

Picture from Google

This will be my GET Team work station. As their organisation would become bigger they will need more space to keep their team track records. And also this will be a motivation for the Supervisor to keep up their works.

My Work Station.

Picture from Google

This is how my work station will look like. In this picture the highlight is the table in front of the chair. Saya mahu meja yang ada cermin and saya boleh letak PC di bawah itu. Cara meletakkan PC seperti itu lebih ergonomik. And also mesti ada table kat sebelah tu untuk saya letakkan Mac Book Pro saya.

Picture from Google

Or it should look like this. Di belakang saya mesti ada tingkap besar seperti itu yang mengadap kepada pemandangan yang indah, so senang saya nak mencari idea bila terasa macam stuck.

Picture from Google

And kena ada satu area yang saya boleh jadikan as mini library macam ni dalam bilik saya. Kata dah President's Team masa tu, so I should have the biggest room kan? And I have a lot of books so I need a proper place to store them all. :)

Oh ya, lupa pula saya nak cerita tentang location. Saya bagi 2 choice lah, kalau tak kat Center KL (macam Ampang or Bukit Bintang) it should be area macam Damansara or Hartamas. Haih...kena kerja keras ni, by 2011 angan2 saya ni mesti jadi kenyataan!

Okla, now its time to sleep. My baby has fallen asleep already so need to accompany him. :)

+*+*~Merdeka!!~*+*+

Sudah tahun ke 52 Malaysia menyambut ulangtahun kemerdekaan negara. Hari2 cuti begini saya manfaatkan untuk keluar bersama keluarga kecil saya menuju ke KLCC. Tujuan utama -mahu ke Menara Maxis untuk selesaikan overdue bill, kalau tak saya tak dapat buat kerjalah jawabnya. Singgah sekejap di Toys 'R Us, melayan si kecil kalau2 dia nak toys baru dan akhirnya terjebak. Nasib baik perbelanjaan ditanggung sepenuhnya oleh suami saya :P.

Sambil memilih mainan baru yang dikehendaki oleh si kecil ( melampau bukan, bayi yang baru nak masuk 3 bulan sudah pandai memilih mainan), suami saya bersembang dengan sales assistant yang tiba2 datang meng-offer membership card kepada saya. SA itu bercerita yang malam tadi siapa yang datang ke KLCC semuanya dihalau oleh FRU kerana tiada apa2 sambutan yang dibenarkan di sekitar KL. Lebih menyedihkan, SA tersebut sampai ke rumah jam 5 pagi disebabkan dia tersekat dalam road block di sekitar KL. Ohh..tidak kutahu banyak road block di sekitar KL malam tadi sebab saya hanya menghabiskan masa di rumah dan melayan cerita Iron Man dan 1957- Hati Malaya.

Dalam kita galak menyambut kemerdekaan ini, terlintas di fikiran saya, merdekakah kita? Adakah selepas 52 tahun negara kita merdeka kita benar2 dapat mengecapi erti kemerdekaan itu? Adakah kita hanya merdeka dari segi zahirnya sedangkan mental dan rohani kita tidak merdeka? Adakah kita benar2 faham erti kemerdekaan. Yang penting, the damage is already done, kitalah yang perlu mengembalikan kegemilangan kemerdekaan itu kepada generasi akan datang.

Haih...lagi 10 hari kami akan bertolak ke Taiwan. Hopefully kami dapat bersedia mental dan fizikal untuk pergi ke sana. Dengan keadaan H1N1 yang semakin tidak terkawal dan saya perlu membawa baby Aimar bersama, saya hanya mampu berdoa kepada Tuhan agar kami semua selamat peri dan selamat kembali. Seminggu selepas pulang ke tanah air, hari raya akan menjelang. Nampak gaya last minute preparation lah tahun ni. Lagi satu persoalan...rayakah? Sudah bersediakah untuk beraya?

Huish...lamanya puasa. Dah tak sabar nak berbuka. Tapi nak berbuka dengan apa ya?
