keeping up with the Joneses

Haha..title xde kaitan ngan entry actually :p


Dear readers,

Yeah, mothers' day is just around the corner. But i never thought of that when i initially planned to write this entry. I memang intended to write about my dearest mama.

Okay, let me give you a little introduction about mama. Well, first and foremost, mama is a lady with a strong character. Mama is an English Language teacher too, dearly loved by her students *i hope i'll be a great teacher like mama one day*. She is 49 at age and will turn 50 this July.


Yet, at her age, mama is a techno savvy mum. Mama knows quite a lot about IT. This is proven when at times, i do things my way, mama would correct me and say "Buat macam nh lagi senang la". hehe :p But me, being a stubborn daughter would say "ala, sama je Ma" :p In addition, whenever her tasks involve typing or producing things using the computer, as far as i know, mama xpernah ask fresh and younger teachers at her school to do it for her coz she knows she can do it herself.


Mama, me and my sisters on their big day


Apart from that, Mama has her own facebook account and she always monitors her children through facebook. That's good actually coz we, the siblings, are like all over the world and all over Malaysia. So through facebook, mama can still get to know what we're up to and from afar, monitoring us. Through facebook jugak Mama gets to know our circle of friends and even our crushes or those who have a crush on us (my siblings)..haha. So guys and girls, beware, jangan merepek tak tentu pasal kalo xnak awal-awal being rejected by mama ^^,

There was once, I called Mama, and she was at a hotel in Sungai Petani, following Ayah for a seminar. As usual, I asked

"Ma dok watpa?"

"Mama dok facebook nh" Mama replied.

Though i giggled at her answer, i was actually proud! hehe..i mean hello~ my mum has a facebook account and she is acceptably IT savvy, ok! :)


So, that's all for now about my dearest mama. Luv u Maaaa~ hehe :)

Caramel Paddle pop rainbow~

I am truly very fond of this particular ice cream. Sejak kecik sampailah dah besar panjang nh, i am still loving it regardless of the emergence of a vast variety of cool ice creams.





Not only because of the taste, i like the colours too! Soft colours..just like the colours of a rainbow. Very pretty :)

Getting connected

When i was small, we moved quite a lot. I grew up in many different places; Jitra, Alor Setar, Huddersfield and johor. So, when i was younger, i don't really have real close friends like BFFs. Most of them, we lost contact, just like that.

But now, thanks to the magic of social networking, which they don't have years and years back, i am finally reconnected with all these long lost friends of mine..especially friends from my primary years at SK Sg Korok Baru, Alor Setar. So, i am truly happy now that we're connected once again :)

p/s: a classmate of mine back in 1997 ckp i was the ketot (kecik) shy and quiet girl back then. hahaha~ funny! ^^

Fresh Spring Breeze~

It's spring now and all these images of colourful fresh flowers blooming, green buds appearing on twigs and branches, red squirrels running around and little birds chirping merrily..wonderful! How I miss all these wonders!

It's like a joyful festive season celebrated by earthlings after a long cold wet winter. Creatures big and small come out to celebrate and play in the sunny spring weather as the lazy and timid sun wakes up from its sleep. I love Spring! And when asked by Malaysian friends, who never get the opportunity to visit a four season country, of the season i love out of the four, definitely Spring will 'spring out' from my mouth ^_^

bad bad Muna~

I've been a bad, bad blogger. I think i should set up a target, to at least post an entry once a week to start off with. This is to ensure that i keep on writing and not only facebooking twenty four seven. And it is ironic that i do actually at times get bored going through facebook all day long!!

Yes, i should make blogging as a routine due to many solid reasons.

1) i have to keep on writing, or else..there goes my English. Tak nakkk!!! huhu

2) i have to use my spare time doing something beneficial rather than browsing through other people's photo albums or downloading songs from 4shared etc...

3) it is definitely a good way to express and share personal thoughts with other readers, though some of my posts might sound lame and duhh, boring!..but please, do excuse me for that. hehe :p

4) Owh yes! fluency in writing. I think blogging is actually a good way to plan and write down your thoughts in a coherent manner though at times i do jump from one issue or point to another. ngee~


Okay. Enough with the reasons. Hmm..what if...i introduce blogging to my students during their ICTL classes? In English of course. Is that allowed?... I mean they'll definitely benefit from it...kan? Ask them to post an entry on a weekly basis, write about something or on anything that they like for example what they did during the weekend and stuff. It'll be like their own journal la. I should try la, kan?..

p/s: Teringat masa sekolah kat Crossland Moor Junior School,UK dulu-dulu... Every weekend we were asked to write about anything that crossed our young minds in this little journal that we each had. Then we also get to draw to illustrate what we wrote :)
