Setahun Lagi

Alhamdulillah, tarikh ini tiba lagi dalam kehidupan ku. Semenjak semalam sudah ada beberapa orang yang 'mengingatkan' aku tarikh ini, maklumlah selalu buat-buat lupa sekarang ni :-D. Aliyah sudah ulang-ulang hampir seminggu. Rabea, supervisor 'moonlighting' aku pun dah tanya semalam. Sarah Kim dan Makcik Dussanee kat office pun dah bagi kad dan hadiah pun semalam. Thank you...thank you.. :-)

Pukul 5.30 pagi pulak Luqman dah bangun sambil babble2. Tah hapa2 jer bebelnya. So aku pun bangun. Aku bila bangun pagi, mesti cek telefon dulu. (Bad Habit?!) Alih2...tgk ada email drpd VC. Terkejut seh, ingatkan kena marah sebab mintak advance scholar ;-) Rupa-rupanya Dato' bagi kad ulangtahun kelahiran hu..hu..hu..Terima kasih lah Dato'. Tak kasi can kat saya nak perasan muda he..he..he..  

There are several events planned for today - but for starters, before school both Aliyah and Uwais sang happy birthday to me :-) Thank you for those early well wishes.


At lunch time I had a lunch date with a couple of friends from the thesis writing circle. Immediately after the discussion session, I went straight home to pick up DH and Luqman for my birthday treat trip. 


First stop was Aliyah's school at 3.30 pm. She eagerly showed me a card she had spent the day making at school. Thanks My Dear :-D

Next stop, Uwais' kinder. Then off we drove to Roza Restaurant @ 131 Sydney Road for our early dinner rendezvous. DH belanja. YeaY!!

The Restaurant served a mixture of African & Arabian food. There's two section to the restaurant. The front one biasa-biasa saja macam restaurant lain. Tp section belakangnya lah yang sangat menarik. Makan bersila, dalam kabin yang telah diubahsuai mcm ala-ala 'khemah' Bedouin lah. Sangat cantik dan menarik! 

Food wise, not bad. Although, we both prefer nasi daging/bukhori (especially the one cooked by Kak Gee - Ustaz Razak), but for AUD 12 sehidang quarter chicken/lamb dan nasi minyak basmati dua kaler yang sgt banyak, mmg sgt berbaloi lah. In fact, satu hidang boleh makan 2 orang dewasa. Kalau nak makan dlm dulang pun boleh jugak. But we figured nak tapau balance, so we all mintak hidangan berasingan. The children really like the nasi - especially the orange ones :-D

I think next time boleh dtg lagi and try a different menu, minus the children, especially LUQMAN! Dia tak boleh duduk diam sekali. Geram jer dia tgk semua makanan2 dok kat depan mata dia. Semua dia nak capai. Adus makan pun terkepit-kepit -> kepit dia... ha..ha..ha.. spoil betul ;-)

Look at him trying to go everywhere!

Anyway, it was a good birthday. Alhamdulillah, kerana masih diberikan masa oleh Allah untuk menghargai kehidupan dan Insya Allah berusaha berbuat lebih banyak kebaikan. Amin.

A/T: This morning, I had another round at the food we took home from the restaurant. And I actually think, the food was very good, especially with the price tag of AUD12. Even Aliyah requested 'Nasi Oren' to be her lunch today. I think perhaps Luqman got to me (from enjoying the food) last night ;-) Alright....who wants to babysit him next time around?? :-D
