What do my kids really feel..

Last week, I had a hectic working schedule where I spent first 3 days with trainings and the last 2 days on site work. I brought along my kids because the site is very close to my parents' home at Bukit Gambir. Coincidence, wasn't it? I drove at night with 2 kids alone during heavy rain, and finished up the work on the next day as soon as I can. We stayed in at my parents' for the whole Friday morning before driving back to Nilai in the evening. My younger daughter complained on how I always work and she did not like that although I spent most evenings with them at home while their daddy went to night classes. So, we spent the whole weekend at home. Partly because the H1N1 outbreak and I was trying as much as I can to prevent the kids from being infected with the disease. Vitamin, Scotts Emulsion and fresh fruits are always in stock. I went to office on Saturday noon to check on few errands on the network and later returned home to 2 kids fully stuffed with Maggi Mee Goreng that they symbolically called "Mee Ayah" because daddy cooked it for them.

Sunday was our rest day. Now that DH also into FarmVille, I got a challenge of farming the best (and beautiful) farm and moving up to another level faster than him. The kids were not too tacky this weekend (they missed 3 days of Astro Ceria shows while at their grandparents' so most of the time they catching up with their fav shows). But last night conversation with both of them, left me thinking on how react next time they made up funny thing just to cover up their mistakes.

Here goes 3 questiones that I asked each of them separately while reading Princess magazine to them after dinner. Their answers were in mixed English and Malay:

1) What do you want to be when you grow up?
Nabilah: Veterinarian (doktor haiwan)
Najihah: Princess

2) What big thing that you really want?
Nabilah: Pink whitish flowery princess gown (baju princess bunga-bunga putih pink)
Najihah: Books

3) What make you happy?
Nabilah: Loved (disayangi...)
Najihah: Mummy (mak)

Honest and truthful answers from each of them. Kids never lied especially from those whom you let them experiences everything at their own pace and ability. I broke into tears each time for third questions.. they really understand the questions and knew what they want exactly at their age of 5 and 4 yrs old.. significant answers that made me ponder for the rest of the night whether I am doing the right thing in nurturing them to be the best that they can in whatever they do when sometimes I procrastinated a lot and complained about the job that I have now.

It is ironic that sometimes you take things for granted very much and very satisfied with what you have. I hope for a better coming week and hopefully I will find peace in my tasks in hand and never complain anymore.

Thank you my lovely fledgings..

The photo..

We were called this morning for the ‘so-called’ R&D project photo session. Big deal, I wanted to go out as fast as I could but stopped when I saw the Section Head put up his hand to stop us and the project director already taking place for the photo. They were so excited. I was not but nevertheless, I sat down and the camera clicked away. Sometimes, the team that makes you get going, not someone that I thought would help me gets thru the tough time. So, I did not miss the group photo this time and at least, my project has a photo of me in it. It is sad to have your hope broken so many times, but somehow you can only depend on your self and those people who truly love you i.e. the immediate family – my mom, my dad, my husband, and my kids.

 

 

Not belong?

Today the admin posted final montage that they've used for the evaluation.. and guess what? I am truly disappointed that my picture was not in the montage.. none.. nada.. not even a very small circle encapsulating the others that truly enjoyed the video session and photography session after the weekly morning meeting. Truly sad, for me lah, as if I don't belong here :(

I wrote a comment of my 'missing' pic and I missed the group photo most of all.. I think it was taken on the day I had an emergency meeting called by one of our prospective client.. I spent half an hour thinking what went wrong with my existence in this company.. I missed almost every group photo session, I missed photo session with ex-VP and overseas delegates during the international seminar organized by me and my team.. I missed the recently organized national seminar of which I was one of the speakers. I missed most of important photography sessions, and the latest one is this - the final montage for 2009 AKP evaluation! And what I got back was a mere remark from Admin saying that they wanted to take R&D projects group photo and this time each project need to make sure that PD, PL and team members are available. I will purposely miss this one, because I am beginning to realize that even if I resign in 24 hours, no one will notice me.. not even my ex-email pal or my bosses.. let them say what they want to say, but my project will not be in the list that the project team photo was taken on so and so..

But they crafted a beautiful montage of which I was not part of it.. I just hope the best for the company in the evaluation. I don't plan to write anymore comment in the knowledge repository and will remains silence from now on.. but I will continue share the motivational article with them, but no more comment whatsoever.. I am broken-hearted with what they did to me.. and I know no one will notice that I don't write anymore for the repository.

p/s: I was late this morning.. I said Hi, and all I got was a cynical remark 'Lambat!'.. why can't he said another 'Hi'.. definitely will stop giving input for the progress or whatever motivation that I got.. he is annoying again :( :(

English Cotton pulak..

Okay, maybe this is your truly madness for cottons.. but what can I do? Raya nk dekat and I need to buy cotton anyway for the baju kurung.. and I am thinking of changing from Chinese Silk to Cottons (Japanese, English and Korean) for my wardrobe. Silk is still my favorite but too lazy nak iron the clothes every morning and I only wear silk for special event.

I am adding more cotton designs in my Facebook photo albums. Feel free to visit my FB albums, and bear in mind that the cotton designs are not in NabilaHouse.com which is my website specially created to Perfume Essence. Maybe if I have ample free time, I will transfer the designs to NabilaHouse.com and everyone can buy it online through the existing shopping cart. For the time being, order for cotton designs is via manual process (email me for order, confirmation and payment). Postage is free within Malaysia via registered post (3-5 working days).

Enjoy viewing!
