The Hospital Shall NOT Be Our 2nd Home...

My daughter has been in and out of hospitals ever since the tender age of two. Her first admission was only due to high fever. But doctor was more concerned on the pneumonia and tonsillitis that came with it, as well as her asthma. That was four years ago at Sime Darby Medical Centre (formerly known as Subang Jaya Medical Centre). 

Recently, she was admitted for dengue fever also known as breakbone fever! It was indeed a shocker knowing she couldn't have got it from home as my mom especially (as well as the rest of the family), is very particular on the cleanliness of her surroundings. It couldn't be the baby-sitter's too since my daughter stop going there few months back. So most probably, it was at my grandpa's that Putri got bitten by the killer mosquito. Yes, I'm sure it was. She was there for a few days with her cousins during the school holidays. The fact that there are no vaccine or drugs available for preventing the infection, scares us the most. So doctors will firstly see the current level of the patient's blood platelet. From there, doctors will determine the next step of treatment. In my daughter's case, she was given fluids intravenously and the fluids carefully monitored to ensure that she does not get excess fluids. Next, they'll just monitor the platelet count on daily basis.

During my daughter's stay at the hospital, I was also told by some relatives and friends to feed her crab soup!! Believe it or not, it's a MUST-READ and worth trying!! Oh btw, Alhamdulillah that Azalea Putri recovered from her dengue fever and left for home after 5 days!! ~XOXOX~

Life Begins At 40?...

Happy 40th Birthday to my fiancé!! If it's true what people brag...that life starts at 40, I seriously hope that it's for real. That he'll get his new 'beginning'. A new beginning to be shared with me. A new marriage (soon), new adventures, and hopefully a new happily-ever-after fairytale.

The birthday dinner was at The Hill, Damansara Heights. We didn't really had a plan on where to dine, so yes, it was a last minute pick. And thank God it they had a table for us being  on a Saturday night. 

From blogs around (which you can Google), I've been hearing bout the to-die-for ribs and their various unique cocktails! We had a go on their Caesar Salad, THE Brontosaurus Beef Ribs, and Watermelon Slush (alcoholic)! Oh, if you're dining alone, don't even think about coming here. Coz the foods were made to share! And do call and make bookings just so you wont be disappointed on not getting a table! 

And yes, the above is my gift for the birthday boy this year...a shiny purple (being his favourite colour) Zippo lighter! Now please don't preach to me if you think it's an unhealthy gift. At the back of it, was...

We too, might finally meet on Twitterville or at any of the Twtup events. ~XOXOX~

Trip To The Zoo...

It's that time of the year again. One of my daughter's compulsory yearly event, is a trip to Malaysia's National Zoo. She's a fan of animals. Well, sorta since I honestly think that there are not many hot spot (with the 'presence' of animals) for kids in Kuala Lumpur.

Though we're here every year, it still amazes me on how my daughter acts and responds to the animals & its surroundings at different ages. How she sees things differently which clearly shows the development of a child's brain and maturity. It's just that now that she's older, I've to bare the irritating complaints from her; sun's too hot, she sweats too much, her legs are wobbly cause she had to walk for so long, bla bla bla. *sigh* The best question this year was "Mommy, why don't they have a walkalator here just like in airports?"...LOL!! ~XOXOX~

Whose Wedding Is This?!...

How big would a bride (or a groom) really want their wedding to be? What would they want at the wedding? In this matter, WHAT WOULD I WANT for MY wedding?

I hear sinister remarks on planning and/or sometimes during the prep of weddings especially if it ain't the first for either bride or groom. Sadly, those hurtful words are always from your own relatives! All I can say is, to hell with them! I mean, they say weddings shouldn't be a huge of a celebration. They say why waste money when you already once had a fairy tale wedding. They too say why trouble yourself doing hundreds if not thousands of crazy tiny detailing (from the walkway and aisle, to the place cards and the favours for your guests)! While I say, every new beginning is a celebration. I say, that previous so-called fairy tale wedding I had years ago wasn't with the man I'm in love with now. I say, it's my bloody penny. Plus I say, those head-cracking detailed prep will definitely be our smile of joy as bride and groom on OUR wedding day.

So I made a conclusion that your wedding is YOUR wedding! Follow YOUR heart (if not your budget). Follow/do what YOU want (let it be splurge on the dress or the ring, or even better, splurge on BOTH). Make us and our significant other-half, THE happiest and most satisfied soon-to-be bride or groom around! ~XOXOX~
