just a plain chemist. hehehehehe.

Assalamualaikum.

during my recent visit to SASA, I've learn some useful tips regarding skin care. as if penjagaan muka. bukan rangkaian penjagaan muka. itu bukan my field. kehkehkeh. ceritanya aku mengeluh *sedikit* dan mengadu domba terhadap SA itu kerana kulit muka ku yang berjerawat. i know its a seasonal breakouts. i believe so lah konon. dengan outstations nya. balik rumah malam, penat, tidur lambat. tiada sudah nafsu aku mau pamper pamper kulit muka ni. apa lagi during the outstations. aku outstation sampai masuk pulau tau. so i believe lah my work activities yang contribute all the breakouts. cumanya aku tatahan bila ada orang yang tegur the jerawats. HAHAHAHA. terus lah aku pergi SASA carik solution.

tapi aku bukan mau cerita pasal the skin care lah ya. its the tip for applying one. especially in the case of kulit muka bermasalah jerawat. we all knew that the cause of breakouts is because of lack of sleep, stress,  what we ate bla bla bla. in term of science it is cause by the activity of bacteria or germs. i dont want to elaborate more on this. boring. HAHAHA. so bila kita apply our moisturizer (especially) we always used our bare hands kan. our fingertip. macam calit sedikit, apply dekat muka. opp tacukup. calit lagi, apply lagi dekat muka. calit, apply, calit, apply sampai habis apply satu muka. tutup bekas moisturizer dan WALAAA besok cantiklah kulit muka aku neh. HAHAHAHAHA. aku lah ni macam begini. however, that is not the correct procedure.

moisturizers usually comes with this packaging kan. the problem with this packaging is how to maintain the hygiene of the cream inside. remember aktiviti calit, apply, calit, apply tadi. once you touch your face for the first time, you have already make a contact with your skin. and once you put your finger back into the cream inside, you are actually transferring any kind of contamination from your skin and between. are you following? imagine if you are applying it on your zits. you’ll be carrying the germs into your moisturizer and could be contaminating the whole thing. there's a possibilities la ah. jangan lah pula terus di buang semuanya. why so serious? hehehehehe.

but for me, i do take this thing  seriously. because that is how we do it in our lab. okay this is going to be all chemistry and boring but just bear with me. I'm trying to make a comparison. when transferring an amount of chemical from its origin bottle, we practise Good Hygiene Practices (GHP) to avoid contamination of the  chemicals. instead of using Pipet (please google or click the link for better understanding) into the bottle, we transfer an amount of chemical into a beaker and Pipet the required amount from it. we avoid any direct contact inside/into the chemical’s bottle to reserved the hygiene of the chemical. jadi bila the SA terangkan these tips aku rasa it was some what true and VALID to be practise. so it is advisable for you to use a spoon (small spoon lah bukan sudu makan) time mau calit the cream. if you are familiar with the brand Dr. Young, the brand provide a spatula (a small spoon) for the above type of packaging.

atau lebih senang lagi especially orang yang pemalas macam aku. beli moisturizer yang packaging dia begini. i dont know what to call it.

selesai masalah. hehehehehehe.

that is all from me. tips in beauty care from the very plain chemist. not a beautician nor an expert. ngehehehe. i love how it sounds walaupun it does sounds annoying kalaudi cakap banyak banyak kali.

 

p/s: get married and then try to maintain your makeup table accordingly. pfffttt.

HAPPY 27TH BIRTHDAY, HUSBAND!

i saved all my cheesy wishes only for you *winks*

maybe..

Assalamualaikum.

recently, husband and i starts talking about having another baby in the near future. screw my fear, screw our financial stability, screw our own love nest yang belom siap siap, screw my unstoppable out stations. we want to have a baby. now.

sebenarnya, kami sudah start TTC-ing since early Feb. trying luck saja since I've been consuming Folic Acid for a month already. also sudah khatam Al-Quran. MasyaAllah I'm super overwhelmed. you must try it to believe it. despite my worries that i might be pregnant while I'm in the middle of my most busiest month with outstations, i just leave everything else in Allah’s hand. and when i’m on mid air, sambil tengok langit dan awan ciptaan Allah, i shall speak in my heart how i trust my Allah, therefore i shall trust his timing. He knows what's best for me.

and for the last few days, i started to create some hope in my heart. and so is husband. balikbalik lah mau tanya “umy sudah period belum?”. please not for that intention. we are really doing some calculation here. ngehehhehe. until i thought that I'm a bit late for my cycle this month and started to tell husband that there's chance that i might be pregnant. husband insisted to buy maternal milk during our groceries and I'm like freaking out for god sake cause nothing is confirm yet. yup. he’s like that. adorable as ever.

yesterday, my aunt flow came. I'm not pregnant. i was miscalculated my own cycle. it was right on track. I'm not late or what so ever. I'm just confused. too much calculations makes you confuse you knowww. hehehehe. of course it hurt a little. i’ve started to create hope din i? =))

but i notice that this urge to have babies always like membuak-buak whenever I'm around babies or pregnant mothers. siapa bah yang berkahwin with no intention of having ‘the’ combination of little you and little him? but it is really peer-pressure. seeing she’s having one, makes you wants one as well. human being it is. and when I'm alone with my husband, i feel content enough with what we have. no babies, its okay. its for now, its okay. you knew your Allah, it is really going to be okay.

there is also time that i did not asked Allah for a baby in my prayer anymore, just Hiss blessing and kindness is enough. am i really at peace now? some what funny but i hope i am. i wont be counting my hardship anymore cause my blessing is more than i can ever imagined.

sooo, since we are officially TTC-ing. pray a little for us will ya?

=))

word-less wednesday : off we go

during my site visit to Pulau Sebatik last week. we are smiling outside the boat. during the ride, i swear i almost cry.

my february

Assalamualaikum.

phewww its been a hectic week and weeks ahead. been playing busy with outstations. come back home so tired, skip cooking, dine out like a lot, sleep a lot especially on weekends. now suffer a slight fever and cough and flue and become passive through out the day. I'm always under drugs influence. ngehehehe. so this is how my february looks like.

 can count ah how many days only i sit in the office playing on and off the aircond >.<

planning to have an island vacation (nampak kah itu pokok kelapak) at the fourth week of february. redeem some quality time with the husband. itu pun kalau semua kerja siap as planned which i really hope it will! insyaAllah.

bai.

the helmet story

cerita hari ini. hari jumaat. husband aku beli helmet baru.

“fuiyooo aby beli helmet baruuuu. bila beli neh umy ndak tau pun. wehhh bila beli ni wehhhhh ndak kestau pun wehhh bila nehhhh” *kecoh betul aku time neh*

“kelmarin lah. aby pegi likas jap beli bukan lama bah kejap ja pun”

“ooooo ndak kestau punnnnn”

“nanti umy bising aby”

eh?

“aby sudah tengokkan helmet umy juga, nanti gaji aby beli. semat punyaaaa”

eh?

kenapa macam sama macam aku tuh? situasi. kalaulah aku ada melakukan sebarang pembelian di luar pengetahuan suami (biasanya time jalan dengan kawan kawan la neh) selalu aku sembunyikan bakul pembelian tu untuk sehari macam tu sebelum kasi nampak dia. lagi besar bakul itu, lagi lama aku sembunyi dia T_____T. eh aku pun tatau kenapa aku macam neh. walaupun aku beli tudung lima belas ringgit seja tuh, aku simpan dalam beg, aku takut betul mau keluarkan. simpan situ satu malam, besok baru keluarkan. entah apa apa pikiran aku. lepas tuh kalau kedapatan dan situasi tidak berjalan lancar, aku mesti cakap yang aku mau beli bla bla bla untuk dia tapi bla bla bla. ah aku teror betul kalau part neh tauu.

kita neh (esp working wifeys) cukup tahu dan kenal ayat “aku beli pakai duit sendiri”. yalah selalu kan mau defend diri bila orang cakap kita neh kuat shopping and spending tu kan, we end up cakap “alaaaa aku beli pakai duit sendiri tauu. bukan pakai duit laki aku. aku carik duit sendiri bla bla bla”. kan? kan? lepastuh flips hijab lagi konon konon sangat urban lah tu. HAHAHA. well the reality is walaupun aku boleh ja cakap macam tu, tapi sebenarnya rasa dalam hati tuh ndak best tau.

sebelum kahwin ya memang best begitu belanja gaji bulanan like a boss. penat penat kerja haruslah reward diri kan. motivational handbag. motivational shoes. semuanya berunsur motivational tuh. lagipun kau takut apa, habis duit or in case of emergency boleh minta parents. ah jangan tipu. memang beginilah kan. sebab aku dulu begitu. tapi lepas kahwin, aku nda berani sudah mau spending macam sebelum kahwin. eventho it is my money. tapi aku ada perasaan segan to do reckless spending thinking about the husband. dan rupanya dia pun sama macam akuu hehehehe

dan sebenarnya aku nda rasa apa pun bila dia beli helmet harga blablabla macam tuh yang dia takut aku bising or worst marah dia sebab amboi ewah lama pula lagi kita gaji ni kan. aku rasa macam “eh? kau tamau kestau sebab kau takut aku bising?” “eh? perlu kah bising dan marah? aku pun baru beli tudung nehh”. walaupun harga ndak match harga helmet tuh tapi aku pun taboleh takbur sangat sebab anytime aku boleh melakukan impulse buying neh. let just say that i knew myself enough HAHAHAHA

QOTD

betul sangat-sangat..

*versi akid*

the house that denies gravity

Assalamualaikum.

1st Feb 2012. assigned for a site/plant visit to Ranau. before the journey naik bukit dan jalan mabuk started, kami singgah R u m a h T e r b a l i k yang happen to be first day opening. it is located at Tamparuli betul betul di tepi jalan menuju ke Ranau, just before SHELL station.

admission is RM18 (non mykad) or RM10 (mykad) for adult. RM5 for children (aged 12 and below). free for infant (aged 3 and below). business hours 8am to 8pm.

 

camera hanya di benarkan untuk kawasan luar rumah. so the closest that i can get to bergambar dengan isi rumah is picture number 3. itu gambar di luar rumah with the upside down ampaian. isi dalam rumah is all terbalik. imagine. ruang tamu, ruang makan, bilik tidur, tandas, dapur are all terbalik. melekat di atas. and we are walking on the ceiling next to lampu dan kipas. it is quite impressive actually. seeing all the normal things berada di atas. so we keep on mendongak ke atas untuk melihat semua benda. and the details are also worth to be compliment. even small small details also ada such as duit syiling yang jatuh atas lantai (atas siling in this case), makanan-makanan dalam peti ais, katil, sofa eh enough lah. mesti pergi tengok sendiri.

however, after five seconds being completely like in a dream, i suffer dizziness. lepas tuh sambung perjalan pergi Ranau. i cannot take it. first time kami orang pergi outstation Ranau berhenti henti di tepi jalan sebab taboleh tahan pening.  it is really weird seeing abnormal things like that. cubalah nanti kamu yang pergi then tell me if kamu pun pening juga.

ok. bai. hari neh pergi Pitas pulak.
