today i have no intention whatsoever to think what had happened yesterday.
dah memang tak de rejeki di harvey norman.
tak pe, nanti2.kena kumpul duit sendiri sob sob.
agak payah disitu.

so pagi ni i asked mum to tag along with my angels to carrefour bandar puchong.
she agreed, she looked boring though duduk rumah takde aktiviti.
lagipun nak tengok barang apa di carrefour since masa duduk johor dulu slalu pi sana,
this time,island mana ada carrefour.
some people said better value for money there.
so we go outing to carrefour la,sebab belon kan dah naik,belon naik means carrefour dah bukak arr.
sekali TAK!
sabo jela,belon tu tulis akan dibuka.
siut je.
bukan ke kalu naik belon ats bumbung dia tinggi2 means dah bukak ke
kita orang kena tipu.buang masa!
sebab dah keluarkan,harus cari tempat lain nak pergi,
KLCC dh terlambat dh tengahri nih,
ioi mcm boring je slalu pegi,
empire subanglagi la maha bored!
mahal pun satu air segelas belum tentu.
ok la carrefour subang will do she said.
zus zass we go, sampai.
we round2 nagoya,tengok kain fuiiyo lawo2 tapi sales kata harga naik dah semua,
esspecially cotton.kesian cotton!sapa suruh jadi trend baju kurung tahun ini?kan dah up harga!
then masuk carrefour,(saja carik pasal nakkk gak tengok apa brand ada).
brother man, brother semlm yang tak jadik angkat sama laptop hotpink!
ok kite keluar carrefour ahhh,
terluka rasanya (uuuweeekkk kat diri sendiri)

pusing2,ma cakap jom pi tengok singer kt bawah,aritu tak tengok betul2 kan.
i like what....whaT..whAT...wHAT...WHAT!!!!

*picture googled,i will update mine later.

saya dapat ni kertas putih!
saya dapat mesin jahit singer 70's retro flowers! (genie 1974)
ma saya belikan ni...
i like it so much,saya rasa nak peluk cium dia time tu dalam kedai,
tapi malu ibu-anak-dua terkinja2peluk ma dia kang,
saya amat, amat happy, amat2 sayang dengan mesin ni.
saya dah jatuh cinta,
turun escalator pun dah nampak,color very cun,
harga very2 nice,
saya suka! (dah,lepas ni takyah mimpi mesin jahit jatuh dari langit,berat tau 20kilo mesin nih)


p/s : ma...tq for buying me this precious gift. i really appreciate and will make good use of this machine.no words can make me thank you, but thank you ma.i love u (not because you bought this,but because i really love u and i never say it loud enough thru out my 31 years of me living out from you).hanya Allah mampu membalas kasih sayangmu padaku.

p/p/s : entry ini bukan untuk menunjuk,saya cuma buat sebagai tanda ingatan hadiah dari ma,dan betapa rasa gembiranya saya dapat apa yang saya mahu.

p/p/p/s : please make an entry about special genie,
and update how she is going to be used.since i am her new owner ;-)

my not so new hobby ** cross stiching **

as far as i can remember, flea market is one good family outing that my family enjoyed.
be it car boot sale ceruk hulu mana, or a flea market that have a stadium size (shah alam)..we will go.
a sucker for vintage, pre-used merchandise.

yesterday trip was nonetheless an exciting outing, but quite hectic and tiring when angel 1 kept bugging for a new toy and angel 2 want to sleep badly...ekkk! wrong timing baby!
my mum purchased a very lovely rose printed home made new dress for angel 2 and a vintage (new made) Volkswagen 1967 model car for angel 1.
both happy, but im not that happy since mum loves to splurge on cucus, and that makes them manja!

but of course they behaved and made our outing much breather.
mum bought her pantang tengok barang antik vintage teapot and few of hers.
to my surprise, there is one booth selling cross stich patterns/charts.
uuuuuwwww...
i never realized about her booth before.duuh!!eyes rolling!

i never bragged about my passion for cross stich, 
well..i dont think people wanted to know what i did to pass my time eh kertas putih?
or people would not believe that i like to that actually
i did some cross stitch back then,well...maybe before angel 1 came.
i cross stiched :

1. my own name on the carry bag (ETR class project and hubby used it as recycle bag)
2. a vintage car model forgotten for my mum
3. word of BISMILLAHHIRRAHMA NIRRAHIM for my parent in law's house
4. unfinished flower in the vase pattern,(i stopped when i conceive angel 1,i was nausea ALL THE TIME)

back to the booth,hehe,
there were so many many many charts using DMC, the owner is selling quite reasonable price for the photocopied charts (but didn't she worries about copyright issue? humm..)
since myself has a few collections, i could not resist myself to have a peek and i landed on one cute alphabets with cute birdie images chart. 
i took!
well, mum has LOTS of DMC thread, maybe i can kecek hers (come, evil laugh with me!hehe!)
i bought for RM5/chart.ok la tu.

i think i am going to continue my long forgotten hobby, which is cross stiching and sewing.
i might be striving mad since my mum said keras tangan.
it is a challenge for me (the sewing part not cross stitch)

my new hobby :: sewing/stiching ::

i made it, i made it!
i have taken up a new hobby,since angel 2 is a girl and there is tonnes of sewing project to be achieved by me!
the first dress finished on 26 nov 2010, one hundred percent completed by 27 nov 2010.
it took me almost 1 week for a simple sleeveless dress pattern(which the pattern ...of course copied from rae).

material bought in kamdar ioi.
i  bought 2m of different design, a very el cheapo material about rm 3++ each.
cannot wait to do dress no 2.
hopefully it will turn out to be a nice no senget benget what so ever.
well, i felt proud, am giving myself 45% grade.
i need more improvement on sewing technique, stitching, finishing.

ooohh, and i saw one fabric with celoreng pattern (might take 2m for angel 1 pant & angel 2 dress, see how hehe)

note to myself : i have little experience, the last stitching/sewing project was a quilt cover for my sweetheart.well, things we do when we are madly in love LOL!
not forgetting a simple carry bag for ETR class project,still intact and sweetheart use it as his recycle bag.
