oh ... i forgot to mention. i'm going alone :(
hubby's in a new job so, he can't take any extra leave. am gonna miss him so much!
it'll be my 1st time flying alone & leaving him for 8 days. usually i am the one being left behind.

this monday i'll be flying to karachi on a business trip.
nak pi cari kain ;)
i've been told that during ramzan, traders do not lie. so i am banking on that to get good honest trade from them. other than that, fabrics in summer are in beautiful colours.
on a social angle, i'm visiting my mom inlaw, sis inlaw & her family there.
bawak skit brg2 utk masak (serai, lengkuas, santan paket, daun kesum etc and of course, kuih raya!
i bought johorean pineapple tarts & suji. hmmm 6 bottles... should i buy something else?
2 more days to pack & get ready.

Dear DrNotts
i miss you!
sya cuba call office a few times (takde la banyak kali sangat) tapi takde rezeki utk dapat akak. sekali tu je dapat, itu pun masa sya on the way to jb or somewhere and the line was bad.
how are you? i've been reading yr blog. i love yr pictures. nak tinggal comment, takleh hehehe ... sya duk baca yr entries sambil tersenyum sorang2. i love the way you write. it's like you're right in front of me.
i've been meaning to go and visit you but time is abit hectic lately. i plan to visit u soon after i come back from my trip.
i know you are ok and i hope to see you soon.
selamat berpuasa ye kak dan maaf zahir & batin kalau sya ada tersalah kata/buat.
* jangan marah ye sya tulis disini. i think it's cute though hehehe (angkat bakul sendiri hehehe)
pssst ... i dont mean to sound needy or whiney. just missing friends ...

apa menu berbuka hari ni?
mama buat kuih sri kaya ubi. it's a family fav & recipe. i also heard she made kari kepala ikan. abah's fav. i'd have roti canai with it.
sya mintak mama buatkan kerabu. anything that can be made into a kerabu. i want lots of veggies. the other things on my list would be sambal belacan & terlur goreng cilipadi. this is my recipe. cilipadi hijau cut into tiny pieces, add to the whisked eggs + salt & pepper. fried just like scrambled eggs. really spicy!
kuih manis dah ada. kuih tak manis, it's either cucur udang, pulut panggang or vadee masala. all my fav!
tak sabaarrrr hehehe

my days ahead
we're back from jb, about 45mins ago.
what a day! on the way back, like i said, wasn't a direct journey home. we left the hotel's parking at 5.20pm and actually started our journey back at 6.35pm. yup, we were at the tol at that time. we managed to break fast at machap's r&r because he drove at a speed of 160kmph. gerunnyaaaa
tomorrow's another day.
since we're sleeping over at my parents', my car's at home. so i need his help to send me back while on his was to work.
b4 9am i have to be at my 'office' to hand in the cheque (done). then i have to go to the other office (my actual office) to print out the visa form, pay the visa fees, check my stock etc (done, done but didn't check stock. aircond not working, office really stuffy).
around 11am, i plan to do some shopping (inners, new pants & grocery shopping for my sil ~ the one in karachi) at either 1 utama or subang parade b4 hubby calls to pick him up at the service station (his car) in subang. (none in this paragraph was done. instead i went to see the doctor. did a urine test, negative. now to wait for the blood test. went straight home to nap.)
from there, either he goes back to work in kl by commuter/lrt or we both go to kl and i'll wait till his office hour ends then, drive home with him.
(the rest of my plans are still on. pergi @ tak ke karachi, kena buat visa dulu)
thursday morning i have to be at the embassay b4 9am. stay the whole day in kl. collect visa at 4.30pm and drive back to shah alam to break fast. i hope hubby agrees to ride with me to kl ( dpt sya tido dlm kereta jap)
friday, parents going back to kb. sya hantar ke subang airport. from airport i have to go to ttdi to get the raya cookies for sil. breaking fast separately from hubby; him with his mates, me with my cousin.
saturday is a lazy day until later in the evening where we have to pick up his cousins from saudi for breaking fast. they're here on a holiday/work, hence we'd like to take them out for food. reminder to self: call the airport limo for monday's flight.
sunday would be last minute shopping for karachi. picking parents up from airport at noon (i think). then need to pack my bags and get hubby's things in order since i'll be away for a week.
monday 8th, i have to be at the airport by 10.45 for my 12.25 (6hrs) flight.
writing this down already tires me! i'm going to bed ... aslmkm :o)

1st day of ramadhan & he has to travel to south. tak sampai hati tgk dia pi sorang2. altho i slept most of the way, i did kept him company when i was awake.
different company but same job scope. most would take 3.5-4hrs to get to jb, we took 7hrs! he drove fast but he had to stop at many places for site visits, hence why i slept most of the way.
tmrw i'll stay back at the hotel. he'll go out for meetings & we'll check out later at 2 on our way back to kl. mind u, it won't be a direct journey too.
the rest of the week, my days are numbered b4 my trip to karachi on the 8th. hectic ...!

an update?
wow ...
i haven't blogged for quite some time , haven't i?
no special reason ... just didn't feel like it. altho, i do blog-hopped.
latest update:
22nd-25th July, my mom & i went to Guangzhou, China. will blog abt it soon.
on my mind:
should i go to karachi? leaving hubby & family for a week ... just to buy cotton materials for my business? of course, i should but i have a few probs about it.
1. am afraid to fly alone;
2. karachi is forever in a turmoil, i wonder if i am safe;
3. will i be imposing on my sil & her family with my 'business trip'?
the thought of flying alone is enough to cancel everything but the idea of shopping is strong too ... hehehe
such a dilemma!
