12. FYP presentation 26th-27th Apr

and all those related to my studies cannot be done during office hour coz i’m supposed to do my office work during office hour, right??

and then besides all the things in my to-do list, i still hv to be a mom when i get back home. spend time with my kids and put them to bed, hopefully as early as possible so that i can start resuming my to-do list. and normally, my kids will only be asleep by 10:00 o’clock. i’d be lucky if they sleep early than that. and normally (again)… i’ll be tired by 11:00, but if i really force myself, i can stay up at least until 12:30.

i don’t know how am i gonna finish all those assignments and projects in time… berserah kepada takdir saja la.

hubby also will be going outstation to Sandakan starting tomorrow until Friday. how great is that? just when i hv tonnes of datelines to meet.

and there are actually a few other things i’d very much love to do but looks like i won’t hv the luxury to do so in the next few weeks – or maybe even months!

1. Continue with my sewing project. i have like 4 projects terbengkalai including two dresses for Ellone.

2. learn to sew my own Baju Kurung. i already cut the pattern, but no time to start on it yet.

3. play Final Fantasy VIII again. this would be my umpteenth attempt in trying to finish playing the game – since about 10 years ago

4. read my 5 fiction books bought quite some time ago.

5. do some proper excercise – coz there are already 3 ppl who thought i’m pregnant

hmm… think that’s about it for now.

and u must be wondering why am i still typing this long entry when i have so many things to do?

sorry, i didnt update yesterday. i was busy cd-hunting.

besides, i’m not that sure on the result. the next morning, at about 6:30 a.m, xavier woke up. i quickly checked on him, afraid that the CD has leaked but to my relief, it hasn’t. took it of, touch the fleece surface and it’s dry. i was like "Eiii??? betul ka tidak ooo…" and then i removed the inserts.

btw, Happy Heiny’s One Size comes with 2 microfiber inserts, one large and one small – and i inserted both the other nite . dunno if that’s advisable or not but i put the small one on top of the large. now, even with the two inserts, the HH wasn’t bulky at all. in fact, xavier looks very comfortable in them. the fleece i tell you… so so so very soft i dont mind rubbing them against my face all day long – of course NOT when they’ve already been used, u idiot!

ok, back to the experiment.

the outer fleece and the large insert were dry. the small insert was A BIT wet, with only 2 yellowish spots the size of a 50cents coin. i gave another "Betul ka tidak oooooo…."

i think i need to conduct another test on Happy Heiny’s One Size Cloth Diaper. who knows, maybe my son pee only once that nite. but i gave 5/5 on the design, fabrics (especially the fleece) and comfortability.

if u hv been following my blog, u should know that i hv also bought Drybees Hybrid AIO from ezmotherhood. last nite, i tested that one. i put it on xavier at about 7:00 p.m and it only leaked at about 6:00 a.m this morning.

to those of you who are still blur on CD, AIO means All-in-One and as the name suggested, it is an all in one diaper, you do not need any additional inserts or cover or whatsoever. BUT, the CD-makers realized that the AIO is not that practical for heavy-wetter so, these brilliant ppl invented Hybrids AIO. Hybrid Diapers provide a pocket opening where you can place inserts for heavy-wetter babies.

for my test last night, i didnt put any insert and still it lasted for about 11 hrs. i dare not rate it yet, still need further testing. like i said before, maybe xavier has switched into light-wetter mode heheh… 4.5/5 for the design, 3.5/5 on the fabrics and 4.5/5 on comfortability tho.

gosh! couldn’t believe i can blog forever on CD alone. how nice it would be if this is a payperpost sponsored entry…

Xavier is getting much better so tonight, i’m continuing my experiment. put it on xavier at 9:30 p.m.

will let u know the result tomorrow.

Who? Me? My Blog???

YES!!! That’s right… ME!

My blog has been approved by PPP on my 1st attempt! How cool is that? The non-english-speaking’s blog was approved on 1st attempt! i couldn’t believe this *rub eyes*.

Your Blog Has Been Approved

This is a notification letting you know that your PayPerPost blog, The Voice Within, has been approved and is now available.
You can now take opportunities and write about them on your blog.

*rub eyes again*

i signed-up at 3:11 p.m and the approval email arrived in my mailbox at 6:51 p.m. that means, the approval process has only taken 3hrs & 40 mins. if i had known it would be that easy, i would have signed up long ago.

i always thought my blog would never qualify so to save myself the disappointment, i never tried.

but i don’t know what came into me today. maybe because i was bored, i decided to give it a go. after all, it’s not like i’ll lose anything if i get rejected. then again, i guess lady luck was at my side.

thanks PPP and also thanks to you guys for visiting!

now… let the k’ching sound begins

k’ching k’ching k’ching

i had just checked my friend’s blog and she has posted her CD experience.

so, all you mommas out there who still have doubts on CD, you may want to pay a visit to her blog

 

yesterday, spent all day browsing all the CD website and couldn’t resist to buy 2 more CDs oh no, i can feel someone’s temperature rising… *sorry honey* and i can already picture him saying "u tidak juga kasi pakai xavier pun". i did bah, a few times, just to test the different types of CD i bought recently. and i’m still in testing phase but xavier is always ill lately, maybe because he’s teething. keep getting fever and flu every week i’m just afraid it will develop into asthma. he had already been on nebulizer once so, i’m a bit worried. because of his unstable health condition right now, i don’t think it’s a good idea for me to experiment new things on him just yet.

anyway, i did manage to test the MPB fitted + Bummis Cover, Kissaluvs + Bummis Supersnaps Cover & Drybees Pocket. so far, i like kissaluvs best. it fits xavier snugly and the combination is less bulky. the Drybees Pocket leaked after about 4 hours. or maybe i didnt place the inserts properly coz i noticed the inserts are not fully soaked yet, but the fabrics around the legs made xaviers pants wet.

i have a few more to test, including those i ordered yesterday. after i test all the different types of CDs, i might consider fully CD-ing my son.

and i think because of my intensive CD browsing yesterday, i even dreamt of online CD shopping last night.

errrkkk… an addict symptom?

have you ever been to a place where you hv to leave any personal identification documents to the security guards in exchange to a temporary visitors pass?

i have.

not once, not twice but many many times i’ve lost count already. there was this one time when i was working in west msia and my working pass was not ready yet, i had to leave my driving license to the guards in order to get the temporary pass for almost a MONTH. well, i could’ve gotten my staff pass sooner but they said the passport photo i submitted was ‘improper’. i was wearing a sleeveless union jack top in that photo. i didn’t quite get what is considered improper in that photo because it can easily be cropped like this

my driving license photo scanned with poor resolution scanner

so the sleeveless-ness of the shirt should not be an issue

maybe it is improper because i’m wearing union jack shirt?

maybe it is improper because my i rebonded my hair?

and speaking of rebonding, i’ve seen a few saloons spelling rebonding as REBOUNDING and REBORNDING. wahh… i would really love to re-born my hair ooo… heheh…

maybe it is improper because i didn’t smile?

or maybe because i have half eyebrows?

or because my hair was parted in the middle?

woopsy… heheh… i’m off-topic already…

nested off-topic

you know, like nested if-then-else

if … then{

if… then{

}

else{

o’oh… off-topic – again…

back to my main topic

so, ya… i had recently found out that you can actually say NO to those rules – the asking for personal identification document thingy. here is a letter supposedly signed by KSU KKDN.

Disclaimer : the source of this letter is unverified so, if it happens to be a hoax, DO NOT SUE OR ARREST ME, just let me know nicely and i will kindly delete this entry.

why? why create another blog with the same entries?

SAYA PUNYA SUKA LAH!

heheh… it’s not like you have to pay extra streamyx charges if i create duplicate entries.

a waste of space?

pardon me, the space is yours?

no, isn’t it?

then, ok la… no need to question my intention.

besides, if either one is down – which is unlikely – there will always be an alternative, am i right?

hmm… maybe i should continue posting (the same thing) in multiply as well. i cross-published before, but i stopped in 2006. see lah how…

did anyone notice anything peculiar this afternoon? around Donggongon to be exact. i didn’t of course coz i was working, in Likas.

anything extraordinary?

heard this from hubby who heard it from FIL.

FIL is a commissioner of oaths and his office is in Donggongon. so, anybody who has anything that needs to be certified, his office is just opposite the Jabatan Pendaftaran Penampang – near ching fah restaurant – heheh… sempat promote lagi.

he said this afternoon, it was raining and the sound was a bit different than usual. he went outside and guess what? it’s not rain water, it’s raining ICE! HAILSTORM???!!! in Donggongon??? hubby’s aunt also called the house and said about the same thing… so? anyone heard about anything???

hubby said i must me more loving (towards him) because… THE END IS NEAR!!!

well, it could be someone throwing icecubes from above…

i don’t know…
