Selamat Hari Raya

To all my Muslim friends...

Selamat Menyambut Hari Raya Aidilfitri.

ACRS 2009

30th Asian Conference on Remote Sensing

Will be held at Beijing this year. On our paper got selected for the oral presentation.
So I will be going to Beijing next month.

A bit tight on the schedule. 18 - 23 Oct in Beijing, 24 Oct - 1 Nov in US. I think I won't be staying long at Beijing this time. Will probably fly back to Malaysia after my presentation. Kesian Daniel kena kasi tinggal lama-lama oh.

US VISA

I will be leaving for US next month, so I went and did my Visa the day before yesterday.

Not easy as I first need to pay RM500 at Alliance Bank to obtain the Visa application number. Next, I need to book my appointment online and finally, be there at the embassy for the interview.

The interview wasnt long - about 5 mins. It was the waiting that was long. I wonder why do many people wanna go to US ?I kinda expect that with the H1N1 pandemic, not many people applying, but boy, I was wrong.

Anyway, the officer who interviewed me is very friendly. No problem whatsoever. He is approving a 10-year Visa for me. But I have yet to receive my passport back, so I'll just cross my fingers for now and hope that it is really 10 years. RM500 is alot (though I can claim back from government in the end... )

Can't wait to go US. Heard that branded stuff overthere are cheaper than here in Malaysia. ANyone wanna kirim anything ? Duit dulu yeah... Gua tada duit lor.. Hehehehe....

1 Month

Yup, syg has been in japan for a month already.

Missing him lots.... :(

And these few days wasn't able to "Skype" with him coz he did not bring his laptop along to Kobe. Will have to wait until tonight, when he returns to Yokohama.

Syg, if you are reading this - to take care over there yeah. Lots of hugs and kisses from Daniel and me...
Muaaahhhh

Happy Birthday To Nana

It's Nana's birthday on the 8th September. In fact, I was so afraid that I forgotten her birthday, I ended up wishing a Happy Belated Birthday. Well, you may think that I have indeed forgotten about it, except that I wished her on the 3rd September - which is still early.

Hehehehe... Ni la ni kerja shift. Hari apa pun da konpius.

Finally, I think wished her on the day.

Emmm, here is to Nana - may you always be filled with joy and much blessings from The Almighty.
God bless you. Muuuahhhh...

What's Up With Little Daniel ?

Daniel is getting bigger and heavier now, though doc did say he is still underweight. Hehehehe, must be from the mother's gene. But daddy was skinny when he was small also.

Anyway, Daniel was fast in moving his hands and legs. He can turn over when he was only 3 months, sit up when he was only 5 months, stands up when he was 6 - 7 months and now he crawls like a bullet train. And he has this cute way of crawling. Just imagine him on 4 legs (no knees yeah), open wide a.k.a terkangkang and butt sticking up. Hehehe, sure funny ...

And he crawls all the way to the kitchen whenever he knows I will be there to cook for him porridge, or to make milk-milk for him. And the appliances he like most is the washing mashine, which I don't know why. And now, he knows that by putting his hand on the drawer handle and pulls it, voila, the drawer is open. I always have to stand in front of the drawer to prevent him from opening.

And boy, he so love porridge. I always cooked porridge for him now after he has this skin allergy called hives. Hives is harmless by the way, but it saddened me to see red patches on his body. So, I will have to avoid food, in fact most of the food I can't eat except vege and chicken or pork meat. No eggs, fish, seafood, legumes, berries, nuts, etc.... I think I am going nut but hey, for the sake of my baby, I will sacrifice... Ceh wah.... So, whenever I cooked porridge for him, I'll cook for myself as well. Satu kali kerja ma.. My mum taught me what to put in, and its damn nutritious you know - potato, carrot, meat, brocolli, sometimes spinach. So, Daniel is in fact eating a huge plate of porridge nowadays.

And he goes to sleep early too. Well, I guess its because he don't sleep much during the day, 1 hour here and there. So, at night, he will be breast-fed and he normally doze off in the middle of it, still suckling but eyes closed. And he sleeps till next morn. Seldom wakes up in the middle of the night, only occasionally.

Each moment with him is sure a joy. Little angel who knows how to kiss you on the lips if you puckered up to him, hehehehe, and raises his hand to say bye bye. I wanna teach him how to salam next time.

That's all on Daniel at the moment. Hehehehe, syg, dun be sad yeah.. We will see you soon. Muuaahhhh....
