Game and Lunch!

Here's a game I got tagged to do. Since there're plenty of lunch leftovers for dinner (we had a little farewell lunch at home for my friend and her son since she's going back to Malaysia for awhile and we won't be around when she gets back = sad) I had plenty of spare time to do this and it's fun - so try it!

Here's what you do:
1) Write your name and your bloggy.
2) Right handed or left handed?
3) Which are your favorite letters to write?
4) Which are your least favorite letters to write?
5) Write: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
6) Write in caps: crab, humor, kaleidoscope, pajamas, gazillion
7) What are your favorite song lyrics?
8) Tag seven people.
9) Add a special note or drawing.
10) Snap a photo or scan the document and post it.

Here's mine!

The boys at the apartment's pool with Adam, my friend's son. Their skin have became so tan these days from being out in the sun so often.

Even at their age now, it's still difficult to ask them to stand still for pictures.

Lunch time with a cartoon channel on = rare (specifically cartoons with this high pitch irritating voice, know what I mean?)

And an old pic...

This is a picture I found in one of my friend's Facebook. I've never seen this picture before so I am pretty excited. In fact, I hardly have any pictures from school days. This was taken after a we won this music competition, probably in 1988 or 1989, not so sure. I remember taking part in the competition for 3 consecutive years since 1987. Definitely one of the best time in school. Love it! Thanks Hanani =)

Aci bids farewell...

Sorry for such a long gap after the last post. Have been busy lately. Work is still the same though, but after office hour, I am mostly occupied with few new things. First, I enrolled in an exercise class which runs everyday except on Saturday. Not that I go there every day, but I am ttrryiinngg. Especially when I have not been exercising eversince say....school days? That's like 15 years ago. Then new school year and another boy is in. Farhan is doing ok so far, except that he lost probably 10 pencils, a few erasers and a ruler and a few text books, and a lunch box. And they have their tuition classes - 4 subjects, 4 times a week courtesy of their Tok since she's paying. 2 nights of Quran classes too, plus homework time which sometimes involves late bed time especially if mama is occupied with something else and doesn't check their begs until later and the boys told her that they don't have any when in fact they do! Plus I am working on turning the 2 small plots of land at each side of the porch into a mini garden.

Anyway...my mom's helper for so many years is no longer working for us. She's a single mom with a grown up son and her husband has passed away so many years ago. She has been working with us for 20 years, and she decided it's time to say good bye when her son got a job as a teacher. I feel sad a bit since she's been around since I was a kid and she has seen us in so many forms, good and bad. She might move to Penang to be closer with her other relatives. All the best Aci with your new life! We love you!
