Double celebration \o/

Insyaallah... :)

~~~~~

actually,
the same day we went out to celebrate Sarah's birthday... was the same day of my appointment with the doctor :)

alhamdulillah... all is well. After detailed scanning, he commented "Grossly structurally normal fetus at this gestation". sungguh pun aku tak bape nak paham, i know it meant 'OK' ^___^ which is very good indeed!

and while we were in the middle of the ultrasound, he asked

"want to the gender?"

agak berdebar juge, sungguh pun pernah mengalaminye sebelum ini. still, i replied 'yes.'

berbeza dengan Sarah, si adik sungguh yakin dengan posisi nye lantas doktor dengan yakin membuat konklusi:

"i can 99% say that it's a GIRL cos got no burung coming out"

haaa... 'medical terms' yang gini memang aku paham! hahahahahahahahaha

~~~~~

right after we left his clinic, i immediately called husband:

me: nak tau tak jantina baby?
husband: haa? dah boleh nampak ke? ape dia?
me: dokte kate kan... he 99% sure that its a...
husband: *diam pasal saspen*
me: ... its a girl :)
husband: *terdiam lagi, terkejut kot* hehehehe

~~~~~

at home.

husband: tak boleh jadi ni. kena teruskan usaha. sampai dapat yang lelaki baru rehat lame.
me: #&_)(*&^#$%^&*()(*&^%$#$%^&*(*&^%$ *dush dush*

Kakak Sarah, tahniah! Semoga kakak Sarah dapat tolong ibu jaga adik dengan baik nanti :)

Adik kakak, we'll see you in June! ^___^

pertamanya, ibu mintak maaf pasal takde buat majlis parti bagai untuk kamu, macam kezen2 kamu yang lain. pasal ibu percaye, bukan kamu akan ingat pon ape yang jadi. alih2 ibu jugakk yang kena cita tunjuk gambar semua hehehehe...

pulak, Sarah bukan boleh makan kek sehabis banyak lagi. nanti ibu jugakk yang habeskan kek Sarah tu, sape susah? hehehehe...

sungguhpun demikian, itu bukan bermakna ibu tak sayang Sarah... sebab ibu saaaaaaayang Sarah sangat-sangat :)

so, how do we celebrate ur birthday you asked?
simple. we go SHOPPING!!!! \o/

stress je abah tak dapat ikut kite. abah kena work. to pay for our shopping expenses tu jugak kan? ^___~ *hehehehe*

i am not much of a shopper myself, but it is kinda fun spending time goofing around together, with you having fun sitting/standing in the trolley as we marched into the shopping complex.

Abah belanja baby bike untuk Sarah. bukan main syiok lagi kamu! u've been sitting on it all the time, since i've put in the trolley. and you sit on it with pride, siap tekan hon suma wooo. jeles je budak2 len. and passerby suma senyum je tengok kamu sukee je hari tu. it's your birthday honey! you deserve it! :)

sampai rumah, u did not take your hands (and ur cute butt) off the bike! sampai kamu ended up kena lap je instant of the usual, punya laa takmo turun dari bike. aduh! jenuh!

naseb tido mau lagi atas toto... buatnye kamu nak tido atas bike tu jugak, tak ke naya ibu! ;p

all in all, it was a fun date! so much fun, that you slept soundly throughout the night. :)

thank you again Allah for this lovely gift!

terima kaseh Sarah for being such a lovely kid!

and thank you husband, for being with me all the way through. ily :)

They say the darnest thing!

while searching online articles for my classes, i came upon these:

Real Man says...

I don't understand why we are even discussing this. Women have no place in the workplace. Where they've been, they've caused strife and suffering. The worst bosses are women because they're too emotional and insecure. And for good reason! They don't have the physical or the mental capacity to function in a professional environment. The worst staff members are women too; they talk the most and always give you lip when you tell them to do something. Anything! What's all this rubbish about helping them achieve "work-life balance"? Women are meant to balance home and hearth and home budgets. Their duties, first and foremost, have always been about carrying babies on their backs, and standing next to a hot stove with a spatula or some other cooking implement in one hand, and a broom on the other. Those are things women should be balancing, as they stand barefooted, always in the house. Not the real challenges of the real hard working world of professionals. Men are made for that. For toiling through long periods for 'the Man'. (There's a reason that expression refers to a male character, think about it.) The least a good woman should do come evening time is make sure the children are taken care of, the dinner is made and served on time, the clothes are neatly pressed and folded, and that a man should be waited on, hand and foot, from the moment he enters the door after work (where she takes his shoes and socks off) through the moment he steps out of the shower into his pyjamas before going to bed. Is that too much to ask? So I say, we as men, must make our stand today. Sound the trumpets to rally round a common purpose: the re-subjugation of women. We must put women in their place. They have caused too many problems. We must discontinue education for women, because it empowers them to talk back. They must learn to speak only when spoken to and such. I urge you to desist. Stop all this nonsense about "women in IT" and other workplaces. Stop the insanity and bring some order into our world. Thank you for your time and consideration. (21 Aug 2008 6:02pm)

Real woman says...

In the first place if men can provide well for the family then the women don't need to join the workforce. If men wishes women to wait on them hand and foot like what 'real man' describes please migrate to Japan. There, women do wait hand and foot on their men. In return their men give their ENTIRE salary to their wives. In fact their companies will automatically deposit the money into the wives account. This also brings to the second point that, because Japanese men have no savings apart from the allowances their wives gives them for their meals (btw men are not allowed to return home until way past dinner or the family loses face as it could mean their bosses don't like them and that these men are not valued at work) the women are not afraid of being abandoned by their husbands. So since most of us are not Japanese, women will have to enter the workforce to ensure they can support themselves should the marriage falls apart plus in trying times like these, most men can't afford not to have their women work as their pay alone is not enough to support the whole family. In many developing countries, many so-called real men are those who drink, womaniser and stay unemployed while women are expected to take care of the entire family, clean the house and be the sole bread winner. Go tell the women not to work and expect the men to bring back the bread! I could go on but I would leave it to others to comment. (22 Aug 2008 7:19pm)

Real equality says...

I don’t understand why we are even discussing this. Men have no place in the workplace. Where they’ve been, they’ve caused strife and suffering. The worst bosses are men because they’re too aggressive and competitive. And for good reason! They don’t have the physical or the mental capacity to function in a professional environment. The worst staff members are men too; they have no emotional intelligence and resort to physical intimidation when asked to do something inconsistent with their proud self-perception. Anything! What’s all this rubbish about allowing them to dominate the most powerful organizations in our society? Men are meant to defend home and hearth, and log fallen trees. Their duties, first and foremost, have always been about carrying home a fat boar for the roast, and standing guard around the settlement with spears or some other deadly implement in one hand, perhaps a knife in the other. Those are things men should be balancing, as they stand barefooted, always on the alert. Not the real challenges of the real hard working world of professionals. Women are made for that; for building relationships, genuine teamwork, respect, collaboration, and negotiation. The least a good man should do come evening time is make sure there is a fresh meat for the family, that the furniture is sturdy, the roof doesn’t leak and that a woman should feel safe and understood, from the moment she enters the door after work (where he listens diligently to the trials of her day) through the moment she steps out of the shower into her pyjamas before going to bed. Is that too much to ask? So I say, we as women, must make our stand today. Sound the trumpets to rally round a common purpose: the subjugation of men. We must put men in their place. They have caused too many problems. We must discontinue education for men, because it empowers them to find more and more sophisticated ways of waging war and killing us all. They must learn to speak only when spoken to and such. I urge you to desist. Stop all this nonsense about “men in IT” and other workplaces. Stop the insanity and bring some order into our world. Thank you for your time and consideration. (24 Sep 2008 8:24pm)
