Post-carnival day

Guess who? hehe.. it's yours truly at 2months old. Wearing a tube top. Sexy right? tee hee..
I was browsing thru the pics in my pc, and saw this adorable pic of mine. Thought it would be cute to post it. *grins*

Anyways, it has been a super-duper-busy-giler week for me last week.After months & weeks of intensive planning, my Carnival went well and is FINALLY over! Fyuuh.. Alhamdulillah.. All the food stalls had SOLD OUT sales..The game stalls were going on continuosly.. Of course there were some cons, that is to be discussed during the post mortem meeting. Now what's left to do is to calculate the tokens collected from each stall & of course to finalized the finance part of the Carnival. Based from a rough calculation, I think we are able to donate RM 20K to Tasputra Perkim! Yahoo~ After this project, I can "resume" my life back to normal.

Based on the rotation of the Head of Schools, my next big project will be wayyyyy much later. Last year I organized the School Concert.. this year was the Carnival.. so next big project for me would be most likely next year. Till then, I am FREE!! :D

****************************



That's me & romeo during the good ol' days. Currently romeo is at the car workshop, getting repaired.
Last week, I had to go to Dataran Maybank to withdraw some cash for my carnival. It all happened at the carpark basement, which was narrow & dark. I was worried about romeo hitting the right side of the wall, then BAAANNNGGGG, I hit Romeo's left side instead! The 2 left side doors glided with the wall...it ain't pretty! :(

Therefore we sent Romeo to the workshop on Sunday morning. For the next few days, I will drive Mr Bert's Honda. Honda's easy to drive.. just a little bit bulky. After sending Romeo, we headed to buy some groceries.

As I was getting my chicken drumsticks to be weighed, I got a phonecall from the Canteen fella, screaming on top of his voice saying how dirty his canteen was after the carnival..everything is dirty..blah blah blah (shall not elaborate here).. He also mentioned about my incapability as an organizer who did not fulfill the agreement about the cleanliness issue. I was so taken by his words.. really affected my mood. Moreover, it was Mother's day. Great.

Knowing I needed to do something, I called my school cleaners, telling them I needed them to clean the Canteen area that afternoon. Lucky thing they were understanding & agreed to my request.

So, I spent my Mother's day afternoon cleaning the Canteen area. I guess the canteen guy has all the right to be angry, but he didn't need to throw his temper at me that way. I guess the assigned cleaners who were supposed to do the cleaning did NOT do their job after all. So in the end, my cleaners, myself & some other HOS had to clean the mess up. Need better "cleaning" planning for the next carnival. I've sure learnt my lesson.

******************************

As I mentioned earlier, I did not get to celebrate "Mother's day". First of all, I am not officially a mom yet. Munckin is still inside of me, so I do not qualify to celebrate this special day. And 2nd of all, the whole canteen incident really got into me. Lucky thing Mr Bert was kind enough to clean the house while I was at the canteen. He did give me a nice treat later that day.. so that would do for now.

Next year, I can celebrate my first Mother's day with little Munckin Insyallah.. Can't wait for that.. :)

*****************************

This morning as I was sending Mr Bert to work (I had an off day due to the Carnival day last Satuday), I was about to salam him when..
" When you kiss me (on the cheeks), don't kiss (directly) with your lips.."
" Huh? what do you mean?"
" Akbar (officemate) caught me 2 times with a lipstick mark on my cheek. So, it's either you don't kiss me (directly) with your lips or maybe you can wear your lipstick after we salam.."

Haha.. when he said that, I feel that I should leave more lipstick marks all over his face..tee hee hee... *muaxx*

Smile =)


"Smile..tho' your heart is aching,
Smile..even though it's breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky- You'll get by,
If you Smile through your fear and sorrow,
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through- For you.

Light up your face with gladness,
Hide ev'ry trace of sadness,
Altho' a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile- What's the use of crying,
You'll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile... "


-Charlie Chaplin, Smile

The storm has past.. I can now smile.. =)
