My poor dormant blog

Today Nikky commented abt my dormant blog. I tried, but blogger kept giving this "error on page" and "could not contact blogger.com..." crap which makes me lose patience. I tried uploading videos...but didn't succeed...so I give up. There's a draft in Jun, another in Jul...I eventually deleted it just now.

Giving myself another try this month - My 1st post using my 1st and 2 mth's old DELL Inspiron. My 5yr old HP Pavilion desktop is now officially Amsyar's game station for his JumpStart Early Development PC-CD Roms, which I got for him earlier this yr. Which he has "Teddy A-Boo", an imaginary girlfriend, "DD Duck", and many other virtual friends in there. With which he's just 1 yr plus and he can count 1-10 (depending on his mood of the day, 2 or 8 may be silent!)...and can recite ABC with me when I sing ABC..he can say Ammeenn (he doesn't recite the doa makan, he just waits for the end & quickly wipes his face & say Ameen & in goes his milk!) and Assalamualaikum. There r cute histories as to how he learnt all these...which I shall spare you the boredom. What's next? I've to refresh his Alif Ba Ta now...hI last stopped at Tsa.

He's quite a genius (like his Maasi) Alhamdulillah...he's even memorised his mom's hp no. just after abt 5x of constant singing the nos. to him. Come to think of it, the credit shld go to the teacher (yours truly). He's not even 2, not been to school and he's talking...I mean really talking oi...like adults. He has a wide collection of vocab and he's forming clear & proper sentences like a 4 yr old! He nvr fails to turn people's head or attract their attn with his constant blabbering - they thought he's a big boy and get shocked when they learn he's not even 2! Alamak...apa dah jadi ni...lawan tauke nampak!! Failed to beat his Maasi at walking (I walked at age 10 mths, he only started walking @ 16mths) but at 20mths, he's started talking like a 4-yr old! That's it, he's not attending any early schooling (unless he becomes a handful & Nanima decides to keep him away for couple of hrs everyday). He'll go to school at the compulsory minimum (K2 I suppose?). Afterall, with Maasi, he don't need all these...all 3 of us grew up from kindergartern (K2), pandai jugak. So he shall carry on the family tradition.

What else eh? Oh, if once upon a time he was into "Mayya Mayya" till as my mom puts it "aku dah tak berMAYA lagi!"...he's now into "O Pana" ("Do u wanna partner...oh partner"). He has a weird fascination for vehicles (I've changed his ambition from plumber to automobile engineer!) - I've no idea how many buses, trains & cars he has as toys. It's like he nvr has enough of them (only to break them within 1-5 days, for sure!)! Which also explains his unexplainable hobby of taking bus/train rides! Loves the plane, the ship too. Have brought him on the Ferry thrice...now he's been bugging since many months to be brought on a plane "Am nak naik aeroplane!"


Loves Barney (but of coz, since forever), Mickey & Tweety (his Maasi's fave what...so it's like another family member!). Responds to Pooh Bear & Garfield...these days he's hooked to Ben 10 (just because he has lotsa Ben 10 T-shirts and the watch...I didn't even know who Ben 10 was!) and Kungfu Panda! He loves cats & babies! With cats & babies, he really show the sensitive/caring side of him! Such a pity none of us are into pets, so he'll nvr get to have cats as pets. Best of all...he loves Vidya/Divya (Zee TV's Banoo Main Teri Dulhann)...doesn't matter that she's been married for dunno how many times! *toink*


(Note: See! Before Kungfu Panda came about, he already did the famous poster pose!)

Me? Hmm...nothing new. Really. Been eating a lot coz had a new colleague joining on 12 May and I'm her "buddy" so I ended up becoming her permanent lunch buddy as well after 1st 3x of showing her arnd during lunch. Once fasting starts, I hope to quit the habit after Eid.
As sick with work as ever. Gd news...on 1 Aug, I changed boss for the 8th time in 5 yrs (3 over the last 12 mths!)! I was only told at 6pm on 31 Jul...such well-mannered boss(es) I've got. So sick of it. I've been sending resumes for the last 1 yr? No luck. Think it's the expected salary. But no choice, can't compromise on the luxury/financial stability I'm already enjoying here. So pay me $500 more, I'll leave my comfort zone! Haha. Other than that, as in love with the Masala Chicken Briyani from Apollo Banana Leaf as ever. I crave for it everyday. If only eating briyani has no adverse effect on health, I'd be glad to eat there everyday (till I get jelak of it)! I'm hooked to this new dance competition on Sony Kabhi Kabhi Pyaar, Kabhi Kabhi Yaar (airing on Wed & Thurs nights)...only because I thought the male host is so damn cute (innocent & cartoon-faced) with his so called fascination for the female judge - the gorgeous Sameera Reddy! And there's also my fave boy Karnvir Bohra. He's so damn cute as a wacko villain in Kasauti Zindagi Kay on Star Plus...but he's got a new avaatar now...new look...and I realised it's coz he's got a role in film...Kismat Konnection. Grey role...but he looks & sounds cute, so who cares! Lucky wife (hate u Teejay!)! Following Banoo Mein Teri Dulhann on Zee TV & Baabul Ka Aangan Chotey Na on Sony (oh and Sujata too...no idea why though, nobody that excites me!) ... still waiting for Indian Idol...why is it not starting!? When is it starting?!

I've watched quite a no. of hindi movies recently...Thoda Pyar Thodi Magic at the theatre, which was a disappointment (except for Saif). I'd rather watch Kismat Konnection or Jaane Tu...Ya Jaane Na, but no time & money...so just settled for the DVDs my Dad brought back...as well as You Tube. I went against my oath & watched Guru (I swear it was only for Vidya Balan!). Other than that, life's almost the same (perhaps slightly better & calmer) since I last lost zest in life in Mar 08.

Let's see if I can back into blogging mode...come to think of it...my post looks q. good w/o Amsyar's pics eh?! Finally some other man is appearing...tks Karnvir...u look damn good up there! Hehe. Realised Amsyar's pics are splashed all over my blog!! What to do...he's the only MAN in my life!
