A new baby.....

Dearest Blog.. i know i have abandoned you for quite sometime now.... i'm so sorry, if u know me well.. then you should have known how busy i have been , not forgetting how lazy too.

Well, now that i have got some time in hand, i may update you. A little angel was sent to me on the 2nd Dec 2009. An addition to the pwincess i already have. Here is a short birth story of the new arrival.

He was due on the 14th Dec, but we were expecting him on the 6th Dec.... but he had decided that he is coming on the 2nd instead.... I went to the hospital on the 2nd for an appointment, and took the li'l pwincess along... then Dr. Paul had news for me..... he asked if i had contractions... hahaha.. and what i did??? i looked at him like " what contraction???" Finally i said.. no.. then he said.. ok u have dilated 3-4 cm already..and u will deliver this afternoon.... And my husband has to interfere and tell him that i have a very high threshold of pain.... wakakaka... maybe thats why the doc decided i didnt need any pain killers.....

I was not prepared for this ok.. i wanted the 6th!!!!! Not the 2nd!!!! Anyway, we proceeded with the admission.. and i twent to check out my room... lovely.. the room faced KLCC... ( i actually asked the nurse whether i have a good view or not) Then they wanted me to go to the labour room.... which i did happily.. i know , most of them in the labour room were told i am already dilated like 4-5 cm by then.. and i am walking around the hospital like a person who came for a visit.. i even went down for breakfast while they prepared the room.. hubby was half running around, coz even his plan for the day was halted for the day!1 (ok his plan was to go to work.. as usual) And while having my breakfast my dear mother in law came in with a stressed face... wakakaka.... and she said.. aree you sure u are in labour?? Ok she asked me the same question for my first child.... maybe i m one of those ppl who are gifted to have a really high threshold of pain.. ( i really can stand pain.. i mean real pain... hubby says probably its because ive got more Thai blood in me than Indian) oh.. he has his own ideas...!!

Then i was called to go to the labour room.. even the labour rooom looked lovely... the bathroom was super nice.... it had bathrobes.. towels.. (but of course they didnt let me take my shower) sets of toiletteries.. hihihi.. for a while i forgot i was in the hospital.....

Then i changed my attire and was asked to lie down on the labour bed..... and i watched Zee tv.. untill my hubby came back with his nite pack.... and his mom left.... so while waiting for the child to be born , he started to surf the net.. ( an activity which i forbid him to do when i'm in labour..)
then, the pain horrible pain started.... by then the two nurses who were assign to me was coming in and out comforting me... giving me cold towels.. as i was complaining that the room is not cold enough!!! Then my mom came... so there was my hubby, my mom, and two nurses in the room..

Ok now... the pain was excruciating ..... i was hoping that this whole episode would be over soon... then it was time.... yippee... they got the place ready.. n Dr. Paul came in... and then.. taaaddaaa.... my little boy was born....... what a relieve it was... ( ok it was not as easy as i described... but i had only one thing in mind.... this would be over soon) oh ya.. i need to state here the "very" helpful comment that my husband had given during the excruciating contractions... he said: "just think abt how thin you can be again after this.... " all i could do was just given him one stare!!!!! duh!! how was that supposed to be motivating?

Ok.. then the li'l boy was handed over to e before being taken away.... and the lovely nurses got me cleaned before they took me to my lovely room..... yippee.... and my husband sat there sending out smses to all ppl.............

ok i guess this is enough for now.. i will update later on other matters.. maybe some pics of the hospital and the room..... till then take care.......

Since cheryl said" All blog readers who blog, please feel free to do it as well. " I am doing this... and plus i dont have any idea what to blog abt..... and shuba will kill me if i dont update..... kikiki so here goes....

But the actual reason to go there was their food.. they have very nice buffets.. very tasty too... compared to the other hotels in Genting....

The rooms were good too...

Here are some of the li'l ones antics in the room..

Near the fish pond....

Swimming pool....

Handy Manny

... hello manny...

... hola yaashinee.. what's the matter?

... hi manny... i need a favour from you... my crown is broken.

.... we will be there rite away....

..... hi manny .. hi tools...

.... hi yaashinee ... let me see.. yes your crown is broken...

.... i am so sad manny...

.... dont worry yaashinee... i'll fix it for you...

.... yay.. you have fixed it manny.. thank you so much...

.... you're welcome yaashinee... you break it, we fix it.

... adious...

This was the conversation my li'l one was having with herself... and her imaginary "Handy Manny". I was having a short nap when i reached home yesterday, and she was playing with her things not very far from me. I heard this conversation between her and Manny(both voiced by her).... it was so funny... and yet i was surprised with the way she strung her words.. exactly like how it was in Handy Manny... hmm.. now i am really convinced that Playhouse Disney is good for her.... Hooray to Handy Manny and friends...

Nothing Matters When Only One Thing Does

Have u ever looked backed and wondered why some things that were so significant once in our lives, now seems so trivial at date, how people, events are just like passing clouds, or more accurately clouds that have passed, condensed and pelted out rain....Relationships, fights, grudges all seem so childish and certain things leave us wondering, why on earth did we do/say that??!!! The people I've loved were amazing people, nice guys that I can't really find fault with, but now I can't even remember what is it that I loved in the first place. U can't say that to someone, it's just plain mean, silence speaks louder, but does it speak too loud, I wonder??

Sometimes it is so easy to point fingers and say ,oh my god, look at him/she, he/she is so useless, he/she is a flirt and rarely we see our reflection sniggering and calling us a big fat hypocrite...I always thought that it's ridiculous, how can one expect not be judged and why we are preached to not judge the other, but I guess they say so ,so one day all those abuse we hurl at others don't come back and hit us flat at the face like a saucer that defied the(1st law of thermodynamics)i.e. the law of conservation of energy with a higher momentum!

How it hurts to realise the words uttered by one was actually a far cry from the greatness of the person itself. We all get agitated when people argue with us that we tend to argue back (with basis or without basis) for no reason instinctively rather than sit back and just hear them out....How many of us reply 'whatever', 'go to hell', 'fine’, ‘shut up' when friends suddenly lash out rather than asking 'why do u say that' as a first response....?

It's also weird that we can get angry for no particular reason and are not willing to talk things out with our parents/husband when they say something we find offensive but we are more than willing to do so in a same scenario with a prospective partner….Is it because we value the latter more, or because we take the former for granted, since they will always be there for us and we fear the latter might leave us.? Fear of loss is such a compelling force....or is it love in a different degree? I still haven't worked that out yet myself.

Sometimes we are so engrossed in covering up our faults, fearing how others would judge us that we fail to realise that we might manage to muffle the sound of our mistakes, but never the trail of footsteps that leads towards it. Humans have this exceptional capabilities of sniffing out other people’s mistakes, that we don’t smell our own poop...I belong in this canine unit too.

I still haven't figured out whether it's just better to keep things that are personal or share it with friends and people we love. But u know what's the problem with sharing, it's like seeding too many downloaders and less uploaders ...Too many people who would just spread the gossip around, than those who would actually give helpful input.

I just hope that when I fall, I can bounce back higher, as long there aren't people who rather weigh me down with comments like 'I can't believe u did that’, ‘Hah! serves u right' or ' What goes around comes around' or ‘I told you so’ kind of talk. Do I know what I am doing, hmm maybe not, but I plan to find out on my way ,If I stumble, I'll pick myself up, brush of the hurt and retrace my steps. If I need hoisting, I'll send an SOS, and I know who will be there for me......

Thali - Mangal Sutra...

The word mangalsutra means an auspicious thread or cord. It is also called thaali or maangalyam in Malayalam, Telugu and Tamil in Southern India.

Mangalya Dharanam (literally "wearing the mangalya") is the most important part of a Hindu marriage ceremony. The mangalya is strung on a yellow thread prepared by using Turmeric paste. It is tied around the bride's neck with three knots. Later the mangalya may be restrung to a gold chain on some auspicious day.

Ok the reason for me to go and on about this thali is that.... after 5 years of marriage i took it out.... i also need to explain that its not a custom for the indians to remove the thali unless one is divorced or widowed. But unfortunately i had to remove it because everyone around me is worried that i might be the next victim of snatch theives.

There have been many women who i have seen lately who do not wear their thaali for the same reason. Once it was a taboo to remove ones thali... now it seems that it has become a norm for everyone to remove it. See how the world has changed.. no I am not faulting the ladies/men for these changes... it is the crime rate which forces everyone to do it.

I for one, had never thought of removing it.. was stubbornly wearing it holding it close to my heart. That was the first thing anyone would see and their comment will be.. "why are you still wearing your thali", "aren't you afraid", " you are clearly going to be the next victim if you dont remove it" and so on so forth. These remarks has always been passed to me by everyone.. even by people whom i've just met.

Finally i removed my Thali.. the one which i stubbornly held on to... on the 5th of March.. one mth after my 5th Wedding anniversary. I had enough... everyone.. including my mother-in-law who took the trouble to call me the previous nite to tell me about the snatch theft which occured around the corner to a dear friend (mind you, he is a well built guy) and he got snacthed while he was driving his car. So now everyone has already already confirmed that it is not safe for me to be wearing a thick gold chain around my neck (however sacred it may be).

Even after a few days, it still worries me.. i just feel that a part of me seems to be missing. Call me naive, call me superstitious, call me traditional or old fashioned... call me anything.. i am who i am... it will probably take me some time to get used to not wearing it.

Postgraduate Studies

Finally after 2 years of thinking.. and thinking.. and more thinking.. i am starting my MBA this year... many have started theirs long time ago.. and the main reason i wanted to do it this year is so that I can b happy with myself that i have done it before I turn 30. So today was the day that i have to register at MMU.. i got up so early.. maybe I didnt sleep at all..It was like first day of school.. Stayed at my in laws place... so that my daughter could be left with them while i am away..

Talk about excitement.. they were more excited than i was.. and my father-in-law kept on saying.. its like sending Yaashinee to pre-school... they were all excited and happy for me... i dont know why.. they are nice like that ( that's another whole post on them later)... and i am not graduating.. i'm just starting.... kikiki

So.. there goes my sundays for the next 2 and a half years.. (soonest) I really hope i can come out of it sane... everyone around me thinks i'll be fine.. i m starting to doubt it... Being so kiasu... i want to get good grades ok.. not just pass the MBA.. and get the cert... no point in just passing it for the sake of the paper rite?? hope there are ppl who will agree with me....

The first day was bad.. went to the MBA centre and the guard tells me to go to the Management faculty.. i walk all the way there.. just to find it empty... then after going up n down the management faculty.. i went back to the mBA centre.. where there was a clerk there.. i asked her where is the registration n orientation going to be held?? And she tells me.. oh.. you have to wait here.. its here... Urrgghh.. i felt like strangelling that guard.. but unfortunately he has left.... he made me walk around half the campus....

So i waited and waited.. no one turned up.. and it was 9.30.. i was told it will start at 9.. so i waited.. thinking whether i am at the rite place... then one by one.. they came.. and we started... huh.. what a relieve... oh ya.. they also gave us tea.. and sandwitches... kikiki... part of the orientation i guess...

It all finished by 11.30.. and i was home by 12.15.. MEX makes it such a breeze to travel to cyberjaya these days... And my classes will start on 15th March..... and I will definitely blog about it.... till then.. wish me luck...

Audit.. Audit.. Audit...

I know this blog has been filled with celebrations.. occasions.. greetings.. and everything nice... now.. its that time of the year again... My office audit period... I will be so busy for next couple of weeks... so plaese do not expect me to post anything nice.. i will try not to post anything nasty... coz i am in the worse mood during my audits.. so people out there... please bear with me.... thank you.

Valentines Day...

Ok the next post is definitely going to be a lovey-dovey post.... Ya.. its valentines season.. Love is in the Air.... and yes, this year.. we went to a valentine's day dinner... at Palm Garden IOI Resort Putrajaya.... it was a nice place .. far from the hustle and bustle of the city... and yet near to home... We had a nice 6 course meal.. in the garden terrace.. the dinner was themed " Under the Moonlight" though there was no moon that day...

Me... me.. me...he.. he... he....
The starter


The dessert.. i forgot to snap the ones in between....

When we reached there... we were seated at our place and the candle was lit. It was such a romantic nite... both of us facing aech other and a candle light between us (which was lit like 3 times coz it got blown off by the wind)and live music playing our favorite songs...Then the food came, yeah i got a snap of the starter only... then maybe i was too engrossed with my food or my lover.... i forgot to snap pics of the others...Overall it was a very nice romantic nite... and that's after 5 years of being married to each other.. and knowing for 13 donkey years... hahaha... i love you sweetheart...

At the end of the dinner we got a complimentary snapshot of both of us... I'll put up the other pictures soon...

Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary...

There are two occasions to be celebrated today...

1. My Parents Wedding Anniversary..... happy anniversary to both of you ...

Oh ya.. another occasion.. this is also the day me and my husband were officially married by law(registered our marriage) hahaha... two days after the traditional wedding....

Happy birthday, Atcha....

Today is my dad's birthday..... he is away in Thailand... but anyway, Many more happy returns and may the lord bless you in abundance with good health , wealth and happiness.

Anniversary Getaway

Ok.. we went to Holiday Villa - Eastern Pavillion Cherating for the anniversary. We left home at about 9 to Subang parade. My hubby wanted to get some accesories for the Nokia Express Music 5800 (i got him the day before), so we were there before the shops were even open. Then to past time, we had breakfast.

Then after getting his accesories, we left to Cherating.... it has been exactly 4 years since we left Kuantan, we moved from Kuantan to KL on the 9th Feb 2005. And we are going back there on the 7th Feb 2009. Thats for me.. hubby has been going to Kuantan quite a number of times between that period.

So we drove all the way to Cherating .. reached there abt 1.30.. checked in our chalet.. it was a nice one...

I loved the place... not only the villa.... the ambience... oh so lovely.. it was windy and sunny... and KL was raining.... and they have this nice beach restaurant.. where it is so windy and nice...
The pool was so nice.. that we started missing Yaashinee in a few hours.... It was always.. "how nice if we brought her".. "she would have been in the pool".. or "she would have loved the beach".. or "she could have been playing in the sand" or "she'd love running around".. and it became worse in the evening.. when we saw soooooo many children running around....

Hmm.. that was the first time we went somewhere leaving her behind... i know we were supposed to have "our" time alone.. but we really missed her so much..and she on the other hand.. was enjoying herself with her grandma.. goingt to jusco everyday... but i felt bad when she called me and she said.." amma.. are u near the beach? nice or not?? wah.. so windy... i can hear the sound" that felt really bad... like i am enjoying such a nice place without her..... so we decided... no more long weekends without Yaashinee.. she goes wherever we go... but 1 day or 2 days ok la... still can manage...

Wedding Anniversary

Its my 5th wedding anniversary on the 9th February 2009. We'll be going away for a short break over the weekend. So many places come up in mind, but due to short of time, we are going to a place not very far from home. Another reason is we feel bad about leaving Yaashinee behind if its a place she's not been to before. Will update when i get back... here a hint on the place.....

Saptaphathi

There are many times that i have wondered about doing something without knowing the truth/meaning/wisdom behind it. Here i want to share the meaning of Saptapathi, the 7 sacred steps in a marriage , which according to Hindu Law codes [Yalgnavakya Smrithi], completion of the seventh step is the moment of completion of marriage.

Step 1. Groom: "My beloved, our love became firm by walking one step with me. You will offer me the food and be helpful in every way. I will cherish you and provide for the welfare and happiness of you and our children.

Step 1. Bride: " This is my humble submission to you, my love . You kindly gave me responsibility of the home, food and taking charge of the finance. I promise you that I shall discharge all responsibilities for the welfare of the family and children.

Step 2. Groom : My beloved, you have now walked the second step with me. Fill my heart with strength and courage and together we shall protect the household and children.

Step 2. Bride: My love, in your grief, I shall fill your heart with strength, In your happiness, I shall rejoice. I promise you that I will please you always with sweet words and take care of the family and children and you shall love me alone as your wife.

Step 3. Groom: My beloved, now you have walked three steps with me. By virtue of this, our wealth and prosperity are bound to grow. I shall look upon all other women as my sisters. Together, we will educate our children and may they live long.

Step 3. Bride: My love, I will love you with single minded devotion as my husband. I will treat all other men as my brothers. My devotion to you is of a chaste wife and you are my joy. This is my commitment and pledge to you.

Step 4. Groom: My beloved, it is a great blessing that you have walked four steps with me. You have brought auspeciousness and sacredness into my life. May we be blessed with obedient and noble children. May they be blessed with long life.

Step 4. Bride: My love, I will decorate you from your feet up with flowers, garlands and anoint you with sandal wood paste and fragrance. I will serve you and please you in every way.

Step 5. Groom: My beloved, now that you have walked the five steps with me, you have enriched my life. May God bless you. May our loved ones live long and share in our prosperity.

Step 5. Bride: My love, I share both in your joys and sorrows. Your love will make me trust and honor you. I will carry out your wishes.

Step 6. Groom: My beloved, you have filled my heart with happiness by walking six steps with me. May you fill my heart with great joy and peace from time to time.

Step 6. Bride: My love, in all acts of righteousness, in material prosperity and in every form of enjoyment and divine acts, I promise you that I shall participate and shall always be with you.

Step 7. Groom: My beloved, as you walked the seven steps with me, our Love and friendship became eternal. We experienced spiritual union in God. Now you have become completely mine and I offer my life to you. Our marriage will be for ever.

Step 7. Bride: My love, as per the law of God and the Holy scriptures [Vedas] I have become your spouse. Whatever promises we gave, we have spoken with pure mind. We will be truthful to each other in all things. We will love each other for ever.

Or in a summary:

First step: to provide sustenance to each other

Second Step: to gain strenght by togetherness

Third step: to share prosperity and possess energy to fulfill duties

Fourth step: to acquire knowledge and harmony through love and trust

Fifth Step: to keep the family happy and healthy

Sixth Step: to share equally in others joy and sorrow

Seventh Step: to share eternal love and friendship

By these seven steps you have taken with me, you have become my best friend. I will never move out of this relationship. God has united us in this bondage. We shall perform all activities together with love and affection and with good feelings. Let us be friendly in our thoughts. Let us observe our duties and rituals together. If you are the lyrics, I am the music. If you are the music I am the lyrics. If I am the heavenly body You are the earthly world. While I am the life source and you are the carrier of the same. I am the thoughts and you are the speech. When you are like the words, you work with me who is like the meaning of it. With your sweet words, come with me to lead a prosperous life begetting our progeny with children.

Now, if someone could tell me, why isnt this told to the couple who are getting married? For this could at least give a meaning to what they do and not just blindly do whatever they are asked to.

Next, for those who didnt know why you did it... here's the meaning and more reasons on why you should remember the pledge you made when you got married.

My (late) birthday present

My honey decided to buy me a birthday present nearly a month after my birthday. Its so typical of him.. either to get it before or after.. but never on.

We went to Time Gallery to send his watch for repair, and he asked me if i liked this FOSSIL watch. It was not those usual bracelet silver types. This one had leather straps and the display had two colours. You can either have it as silver, or blue.. and you can also have it alternate between blue and silver where it changes every second. Of course i liked it.. and there was the same type for men also.. so we decided to give each other the same type of watch.... kikiki... so here is my birthday/anniversary gift and his anniversary gift.

I took the blue and silver dial.. and he took the blue and green dial. Now we both havbe got the same watches... i know.. it may sound very kiddo-ish... but we had the habit of owning the same type of stuff... like the same phone, same number cannot la.. but identical number with one different digit, same type of wedding ring.. but of course me being ME.. we never wear the same colour.. or the same t-shirt/outfit.. i think its wierd.. i never wear the same anything (attire)as anyone..... !!

You're still the one

I love this song, and it keeps on coming to me.. so i must post it up here.. those who know me long enough will probably know why i love this song....

You're still the one - Shania Twain

(When I first saw you, I saw love.

And the first time you touched me, I felt love.

And afterall this time, you're still the one I love.)

Looks like we made it

Look how far we've come my baby

We mighta took the long way

We knew we'd get there someday

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"

But just look at us holding on

We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)

You're still the one I run to

The one that I belong to

You're still the one I want for life

(You're still the one)

You're still the one that I love

The only one I dream of

You're still the one I kiss good night

Ain't nothin' better

We beat the odds together

I'm glad we didn't listen

Look at what we would be missin'

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"

But just look at us holding on

We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)

You're still the one I run to

The one that I belong to

You're still the one I want for life

(You're still the one)

You're still the one that I love

The only one I dream of

You're still the one I kiss good night

(You're still the one)

Birthday baby - ME

This year in particular had been great... coz we had a double celebration. My grandma's bday was also celebrated on the same day as mine. We had a a really nice gathering in Ipoh. Grandma was thrilled to have a grand celebration with most of her children and grandchildren around her, oh yeah also the great grand children. And she did get many pressies....

We had fun, singing, eating, dancing, eating, talking, eating, walking, eating,... ok you get the drift.... so dont blame me if i put on more weight this year.... oh ya talking abt presents... Sharm gave me a nightie.. a nice read one, and insisted that i put it on that minute.hehehe.... oh well... i did ok.... i did put on the nightie that she gave me... and blew the candles on my cake with it on.

Dont we look sooooo happy... well, my darling husband actually forgot to be the first one to wish me this year.... he rushes to do it every year.. and somehow this year he forgot as he was carried off with "something else". Dont worry.. i forgive you...

The first birthday greeting was from a lovely person... who was sooooo far away but yet she remembered... and sms-ed me its none other than my beloved shuba.. thanks darling...

Anyway, this post is to thank all of you who made this year a great begining for me.. Thank you.. and Happy New Year again....

A New Year... A new Beginning

Happy New Year... A new beginning, this is where my blog: Sugar, Spice and Everything Nice will start. Just because of the title , please do not think its gonna be filled with sugary, flowery, nice, fairy tales of my life..... i wish it would be, but sometimes, there are times where life is filled with drama, drama and more drama... so at those times please pardon me for all the emo posts that i may ocassionally put up. Anyway the blog is to be known as Nisha's yackety-yack... so i may be tempted to blabber abt everything..... and yes, this blog is purely mine... not sharing with my previous blog; Princess Diaries which is dedicated to my li'l princess ; which by the way is dormant... hahaha... i will update it soon)

So to all... WELCOME to Sugar, Spice and Everything Nice....
