I'm back in KL...

Yesterday, I came back from Trengganu, a day earlier than planned...alhamdulillah... We started our journey from Kemaman around 2.30 pm and arrived in Taman Tun around 6 pm. That would include our brief stopover at Kuala Kemaman tu buy satar and other 'fishy' stuff... hehehe...

I'll write about our trip to the East Coast in subsequent posts because I couldn't find my camera to upload pictures. I'm also on my way to KLCC to check out Kinokuniya and other shops...hehehe...So, au revoir!!!

Countdown update : 3 more days!

3 more days to go back to Malaysia!!! yeay! This would be the first time for the kids and me to go back to Malaysia since we came to Khartoum in April. Believe it or not we've been here for 8 months...wow, we have survived living in a foreign country! And the kids are still alive even after eating my cooking for 8 months...hehehe

I think our family and friends back home would be amazed at how big the kids have grown. I truly need to do some shopping for their clothes in Malaysia...such a good excuse to go shopping...hehehe... but truly, they have outgrown most of their clothes, especially Aliah and Amir, they are literally bursting at the seams!

The kids are so excited to go back and see their tok and tok ki'. And they're looking forward to so many things in Malaysia. But, Hadi's looking forward to one particular thing... he's looking forward to buy toys... hehehe... I'm the worst of the lot...enough said.

Actually, I haven't started packing our clothes, yet. Maybe, tonight. I only packed the 'souveniers' for family and friends. We got the tickets about two weeks ago... yeay! And we'll be in Dubai for only a couple of hours... the shorter the better...hehehe...oh, another thing... for our neighbours in Tasik Puteri, the 10 kg of khoruf's nicely freezing in the freezer...hehehe

The e-tickets...

'souveniers' for family and friends...

I don't know whether I'll be able to blog or not in Malaysia, but I'll try my best ... I have so many things to do around the house like catching up with my 'hill' of unfolded clothes before flying home...sigh...So, what can I say... see you guys there!!!

Countdown update!

We've booked our flights back via Dubai with Emirates. Hopefully we'll get the tickets within the upcoming week, insyaallah... Due to unforeseen circumstances, we're going to come back to Khartoum a bit later than planned (on the 4th of January 2009...yea!). Actually, it's great news, my sister-in-law's getting engaged on the 1st of January, insyaallah.

Even Aliah's excited with the prospect of being the flower girl...hehehe... my daughter is so girlish...sigh... definitely nothing like me... sigh... Anyway, my 'vacation' will be filled with a lot of activities... one of them would definitely be to my tailor's in Selayang... hmmm... I think I really need to go to Souk Libya again before I go back... hehehe (with glee!!!)

20 more days before we're back on Malaysian soil...yippee!

To adik, this little video is for you...hehehe

The countdown begins...

We are going home...in a month's time... yahoo...

Can't wait to be in Malaysia again! Even though I've lost someone very dear to me forever, I'll get to see his grave... I'll remember you always, brother... The sadness of losing you is still acute, but I'll also get to see friends and family...

I've started the countdown, but I think I'm the most excited of all... hehehe... Aliah's looking forward to see her tok and che' su again, Hadi's looking forward to get Ben 1o toys and Amir is blissfully unaware. Well, in less than a month, we'll be among our loved ones, insyaallah. We'll be travelling on the 28th of November and will be arriving on the 29th. We'll be going back straight to Sabak Bernam and have a tahlil for Ayang on the 30th, insyaallah.

We might be travelling to Kelantan and Trengganu for the Eid ul Adha with my in-laws. Really looking forward to see Mak Anjang, Mak Su, Che Wa, Che Da and numerous others. Hopefully there'll be time for me to go and check out Wakaf Che Yeh... hehehe

There's a plan for a reunion with my Seri Puteri classmates in Johor Bharu during Christmas. Hope to see you guys there. Since it's so close to Singapore, might be able to squeeze a trip to Singapore to see Mak Ngah and family. Probably able to look at the Christmas decorations at Orchard Street...hehehe

In the meantime, we have lots of other things to do before going back to Khartoum. It looks like it's going to be a rush of activities throughout our 'vacation'... well, at least we'll be able to put an end to a lot of cravings... hehehe. Anyway, we'll be heading back to Khartoum on the 1st of January 2009 (what an apt date, huh?!!)... new year, new resolution kind of thing... Can hardly wait for the 28th of November to be here...

29 more days and counting...
