Congratulations & Jubilation!

Heartiest congratulations to my daughter Dilla for passing the final MICPA exam successfully!

As a mother, I personally saw how difficult and winding the road was for her to achieve such stature, to become a Certified Public Accountant.
It's a mother's dream comes true. Thank you, Dilla!

I moan her social sacrifices in life, and pray for better opportunities for her in the future.

Way to go, girl! I am so proud of you!!!!!

Talqin for my lemak

Changing my wardobe to Ms Read from Miss selfridges (chewah, chewah!!!) was not exactly a good idea.

Ms Read collections made me feel very comfortable, due to the type of material used and the ample spaces provided for by the designs. At the rate of my frequent visits to the boutique, by now, my cupboard already looks like part of its showroom.

The disadvantage is, I tend to take it easy on what has been hidden inside, until this friday morning when I decided to put on my baju kurung.
Karung indeed!!
I was shocked by the creepy results of what slouching on the couch, eating kacang and maruku daily, has done to my being.

It was so unbelievable that I cooked up this grim reminder for myself:

Wahai MamaIrma,
Sesungguhnya, lemak itu benar,
Tak boleh tarik zip dikain itu adalah benar,
Lipatan berlapis atas perut bila duduk itu juga adalah benar,

Janganlah kamu berdukacita dan risau,
serta janganlah kamu bersusah hati dan terkejut,

Berusahalah kamu demi kebaikan.
Ketahuilah, exercise atas treadmill itu sesungguhnya lebih banyak membawa kebaikan daripada menonton TV,
Percepatkanlah pergi membeli kasut sukan kerana itu satu-satunya excuse yang kamu beri supaya berlengah-lengah untuk memulakan senaman.

Semoga kamu insaf!

New Career.

The verdict of last year's sales performance was far from encouraging.
My staff managed to secure only 50% of the previous year's profit.
2008 was indeed a gloomy period for us in the business. What's bad is that 2009 have not shown any promises either, it could be worse!.

I am supposed to manage and direct businesses since, the last I checked, my job title is as a Managing Director.
However it seems that lately I've made sleeping and watching Korean Drama as a career.
My part-time job is sending and picking up my son from school and tuition classes. Networking consists of jamming with my kids on the Rockband2.

Why am I complaining?

A lazy New Year.

I have not been looking at my blog for a while now.
I think it's a new year syndrome, at the same time every year I feel like abandoning this place.
Perhaps it's due to the long holiday season.

However, yesterday I got a new motivation through an sms from my daughter.

Dilla forwarded a note from a friend:

stumbled upon your mom's blog, love her writing, suruh dia update selalu.

mama: sapa tu?

dilla: S, my friend.

mama: Oh, mama ingatkan Piah Zadora!! Ha,ha,ha.....

dilla: Ha,ha,ha...Tak kan si Piah tu nak sms kat dilla!!!

mama: well, maybe she knows you since she has been bashing your friend, si shila shower!!

Habis lah dah pecah rahsia, rupa-rupanya mama pun sama subahat membaca hal orang menganyam ketupat!!!!
