The day finally arrives! I am officially 30 years old today. How do I feel? Hmmm...I may not have all the things n money that i wanted yet, nor do I own my dream car n home, but I am enjoying every bit of my life as it is n grateful for the all the wonderful things n also not so wonderful things that have happened in my life. I thank God for the wonderful people in my life esp my 3 precious bundles of joy, hubby n parents.
Lots have been said by others about the meaning of life. For me, life isn't a life unless u treasure it and make the most that u can for it with the people who r dear to you.
Happy birthday Azura!

10 Things I Missed About Jakarta
Today (10 Dec'07) marks the sixth month we r back from Jakarta and i can't quite get over it yet. Here r the top 10 things i missed about Jakarta:
10) Smiling faces-mostly everywhere! Honestly, i really think the people in Jakarta r more humane. They were so polite n humble.
9) My supirs-well, the school's supirs@drivers actually. There r really a bunch of good men, helpful n humble.
8) Browsing the utusan.com.my. Now that i'm here in kl, i dont really do it that much since i can read other papers.
7) Cheap fast food & fine dining. We spent only RM 10 at pizza hut for 2 adults n 2 kids. In kl we had to spent RM 40 for the same set. Not to mention my fav Japanese food, Gokana. On another acc, i'm tremendously elated when J.Co has finally arrives in KL. Hip hip J.Co! Hip hip J.Co!
6) Latest DVD -pirated of course!! At only RM2.50 per disc, i can collect my all time fav tv series-friends, heroes, ugly betty, desperate housewifes, etc n movies-u name it, they got it!
5) The Gerobak-push cart sellers in my housing areas n around Jakarta. They've got some really nice local delicacies to offer.
4) Events! Events!-The Indonesians r really all out when it come to events, be it the launch of a new product or launching the sales of apartments. They r superb n most of the time equipped with their hot local artiste.
3) The Safari at Punchak, Bogor- my kids n i really love it n enjoyed our time there.
2) Local gossip programmes-well, actually i think my hubby missed it more than i do. They have got like our local Melodi everyday -different entertainment slots for every channel. Imagine having 10 different E! channel alike at 10 different local free-to-air tv channels!
1) This is actually the one thing that i missed the most-Shopping!!! What else should i say, Jakarta really is the shoppers' heaven on earth! My ever so favourite shopping mall, the great Mall Ambassador in Kuningan. Filled with everything that i wanted to get hold on but never really quite did..things there r extremely fabulous n elaborate n quite cheap too.
Well...life goes on. Till we meet again Jakarta :)
