My old homey..

We live at Silam camp, Lahad Datu for years.. It was a very nice place. We had our own entertainment that we organised on our own. Back then I realised that only few teens are involved in any social activities. We definetely had a very good old days. Even fall in love with the place and the people around there. I even have my crush there! How I wish Silam is the Silam that I used to live. Now, it's no longer Silam that we use to know. It's dirty and not even beautiful. Besides, there are different people who live there now. Not the old people. This is a pic taken of the old jetty where we used to lepak after jogging at the beach very early in the morning... It remains a memory for us.

Vroom... vroom...

Dawne wira is at beauty parlour... Need to do some beautification to the engine. Has been a trouble lately. So, I go to school with another vroom vroom that sounds very sporty and loud. Due to that I have to go early to school and be back late because of that embarrassing sound. For me at least. One thing I discover while driving this car is that men tend to look at driver who have sporty car. Hubby, it's not my fault ah...

Ramadhan Mood

Hari Raya is always great for us the whole family. Yet this year it's a lil bit different. My grandma was sick so we went back kampung to visit her. My aunt is still sick. So, her whole family whom we use to go together-gether every raya can't go anywhere. We do visit my muslim uncle but it's a lil bit boring. Besides, I have to go through marking students' paper which is totally outrageous and awful especially during raya mood.. so much thinking of raya. Hope to have great raya next year! Lucky, I can eat kuih raya and ketupat palas froms friends.. Thanks pal!

Pain in the stomach

I develop a very painful stomach. It's not exactly in my stomach but it's located on the left hand side under my stomach. Don't know what's went wrong. Everything seems rite. Rite food at the rite time. Still I haven't gone to the clinic because I myself cannot locate where the pain is. Walking does not cause any pain but only when I stoop a bit. I googled myself for the answer. Only then I'll go to the clinic.I got a very comprehensive outlook of it. I short it's all related to my bowel.. errrmm gonna have papayas then hehehhehe

RON 95 & RON 97

Hubby's job is dealing with automobile. Yesterday, after reading my blog he suggested why not writing something informative. Reluctant at first since he gave me a hard topic. After a moment decision I took at as I don't have any topic to say yet otherwise I'll go mumbling. Looking at the issue as BIG as I decided to google for it. Sounds boring but useful and informative. I got some for the reference. Check from this Ron 95 and Ron 97 for Malaysian drivers

This RON 97 is common use for majority of our cars.At the same time, another new petrol grade will be introduced which is RON 95 (with cheaper price, RM1.75/liter).

RON–> Research Octane Number

Wiki notes:

Octane rating of a spark ignition engine fuel is the detonation resistance (anti-knock rating) compared to a mixture of iso-octane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane, an isomer of octane) and n-heptane. By definition, iso-octane is assigned an octane rating of 100, and heptane is assigned an octane rating of zero. An 87-octane gasoline, for example, possesses the same anti-knock rating of a mixture of 87% (by volume) iso-octane, and 13% (by volume) n-heptane. This does not mean, however, that the gasoline actually contains these hydrocarbons in these actual proportions. It simply means that it has the same detonation resistance properties as the described ’standard’ defined mixture.
Octane number refers to the gasoline ability to withstand auto ignition inside the engine. Simply said, RON97 is harder to ignite compared to RON95.

I believe some of us might switch from RON97 to RON95 due to the cheaper price.BUT, you are advised to check out your vehicle fuel requirement, to ensure compatibility and usability.

The effect of using lower RON then the requirement: KNOCKING ( poor performance of your vehicle)


There are 3 ways to check:-
1. From your vehicle guide book.

2. Min Octane Number Rating at the back of the fuel lid cover

3. Ask the car manufacturer.

Going groove with a new look (soon)

I've been looking at my wish list... It's a llllllllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggggggg list. Some are a long way to achieve. So, have to go for a short term list then. I want a pair of jeans.. it's been a while I haven't updated my wardrobe. End of this year hubby and I decided to spoil ourselves a bit. Updating look and wardrobe. We had enough of spending money on the wedding so time to swift it a bit for our own fun.

Christmas 2009

Photo taken during Christmas 2008 at Executive Hotel.

These are some of mummy family members at Lahad Datu.

Few months to go but I’m going blue for this year’s Christmas. Hubby said that we are going to have the first Christmas together at Keningau, his hometown. We discussed this earlier so that we won’t argue of a last minute decision. It’s a double happiness to be together as husband and wife for Christmas but it’s a grief to be apart from parents. I spend most of my Christmas with my family (except when I was years back studying and can’t afford to go back on Christmas). Though it is just a small family gathering yet it means a lot to us and year by year memories will linger in our minds and share by us all. So, whenever each month passes by and December is coming it hurts me little by little. My family will be spending Christmas at Tambunan this year and it’s only 45 minutes away from Keningau, but still we will not be able to have Christmas mass together… sob sob… sob…

Hospitalised

My aunt has just been admitted. It’s a bit odd seeing her laying on the bed at the hospital since we never seen her being admitted that terrible except on one incident where she was caught with malaria. Now, she’s diagnosed with mild stroke. I pity her. Once she was not able to utter a speech. Last Sunday she’s getting better but still sleeping all the time and easily exhausted. We knew that she has diabetes and high blood pressure but I guess none will thought that she will be like this. It all started with just having diarrhea followed by fainted. Thus, leads to hospitalization. Well, everyone needs to take care of our own health. None will benefit the most except our own selves. I’m not saying that my aunt didn’t take care of herself but, she likes to eat outside the most, means lots of MSG. It’s safer to cook at home. Clean and not a hole in the pocket. The Malaysians women’s weekly for September issue has a very good issue on the debut of health conscious. Grab one and read on the health problem that we naively never think of such as a gastric pain that was actually a heart attack!

Searching for new template

For ages I've been here and there looking for a new template. Hope this one works. Don't want to feel bored with the same old hideous template of mine

HALAL

I've been missing blogging... Too much things to do, too much troubles with broadband and school line connection. Lucky for me today to have a good line at school.... It's fasting month, and as usual we the non-muslim will be able to eat outside of school compound which is an honour and a time worth waiting for. Okay, today Arnie and I went to a chinese restaurant at the new Hot spring area at Tawau. I go for mee hoon soup (camca ;-) )while Arnie goes for tom yam mee hoon soup . I also ordered tapau mee hoon goreng kering seafood for Christy... The moment we mentioned seafood the Filipino waiter would keep on saying halalkah? Arnie and I exchange a weird look with each other then we started to mention all over again no...... seafood. Then the waiter keep on insisting saying halalkah? Errrrmmm what actually does he mean by halal? Anyway this restaurant isn't even a halal restaurant... hahhahahaha.. Ok then, after exchanging another funny look with Arnie then only we realised it's Friday and we are wearing baju kurung plus eating delicious food in the month of Ramadhan... Well.. I supposed that's why he keep on saying halal... maybe he tries to convey that we shouldn't eat during fasting month... hehehehehhe.. I guess so.. OR? He has another interpretation of HALAL.. which would mean to him of not adding pork to our meal... well, people as SATU MALAYSIA we should ask our Muslim friends the real meaning of HALAL then...
