Moing Augusta's Birthday
Friday, 31 August 2007

Moing Augusta Mojinggol’s birthday was on the 25th August but since our beloved Moing was busy with her magagung troupe on her birthday, we decided to celebrate on Monday (27 August). We did steamboat and BBQ party for her. Bobby gave her Banana Chocolate cake from Secret Recipe. Punya main sedap the cake! Anyways, eventhough it was a small party, everyone had a good time.

Cake from Secret Recipe sponsored by Bobby.

What a weekend!
Monday, 27 August 2007

Weekend can be both exciting and tiring! Saturdays and Sundays are dedicated to my kids and hubby. Last Saturday, all of us woke up very early. So, I prepared my kids. Gave them a bath. Hubby drove to the usual restaurant. Sean and Selina had their usual dim sum (somai to be exact) and sent hubby to his workplace. In the afternoon, we were invited to Baby Eliza's full moon party at Mr. & Mrs. Victor Biusing's residence in Kg. Ramayah. We spent the whole afternoon and when we arrived home it was already 8.45pm. Likewise, Sean and Selina slept at the back of the car while Shayna slept in my arms. I was very tired so I went to bed early. Then the next morning, our kids woke up very early. I recall it was only 7am! Oh, Mama Tina arrived from KL. That's why. Sunday is another busy day for mummy as she prepares the kids and go for breakfast then go to see plane at Tg. Aru. Afterwards, to KK to do some shopping or rather window shopping. Preferred Wisma Merdeka, less crowd, more parking space. Ding dong ding dong, we arrived home at about 4pm. Hubby and I were really exhausted. Luckily the kids were sleeping in their individual buaians (what's the translation in English...lazy to think). I went to bed to have a nap while hubby busy browsing on the internet. Then at 6pm, my hubby brought us to my parents place for a visit. Chit chat...momom....bye bye...it was already 9.15pm. We arrived home at 9.35pm. Then I realized that the next day is WORKING DAY!!! Huh!!!! Did I manage to take rest? Hah! So much for my weekend. Like I said before...exciting but tiring!

Sextuplet Story
Thursday, 23 August 2007

If you are an avid fan of "Sextuplets" at channel 77 (Astro), you can click this link or in my "Website Worth Visiting". The Gosselin of Ten is about a couple, Jon & Kate Gosselin, having 8 eight children (one set of Twins and a set of Sextuplets). A very interesting story to follow as the program unravel the story of how the couple struggle to handle 8 small children. From the time they wake up until the time they are tuck in bed. I hope you will enjoy the program and the website as much as I do. Even my hubby enjoys the program.

What's wrong with me?
Tuesday, 21 August 2007

I don't know what is wrong with me today. I feel gloomy, no energy (though consumption of food is still the same), no mood (my period came and gone). Could it be my hormones? I can't give an absolute answer. What's wrong with me? Help..

Mama Valie Lojuti - Jaua 42nd Birthday
Friday, 17 August 2007

We just got back from a birthday party at Atlantis Seafood Restaurant in Bundusan. Yesterday, I received a call from Uncle Pius Jaua to invite us to his beloved wife birthday party. He said it is a surprise for her. Aww...how sweet of him. Anyways, we arrived late due to massive traffic jam. When we arrive, everybody was digging into their food already. The birthday girl greeted us. We gave her a cheese cake as a gift (I asked my pastry chef to bake it for me at Perkasa Hotel Kundasang). I have a few pictures to show.

Happy Birthday to you....

Selina...lapar...

Shayna craves for attention

Our raw food...

St Francis Convent Class of 93 REUNION
Monday, 6 August 2007

Yesterday, I attended the reunion held at the Mediterranean Bar & Restaurant, Tg. Aru. Although I am not a full pledged SFC (I did my upper forms in SBPS), I attended the reunion anyway just to see my old friends from my former school. I arrived a bit late (the event starts at 1pm). At the registration, I met Aloysia Sang (still the same Aloy!), Imelda Latiff, Ratnawati (the soon to be Missus and still gorgeous), Dr. Flora Chong (she works as a doctor in Sarawak), Dr. Pamela Yong (a dentist and just opened SMILE Orthodontics located along Jalan Lido - Kepayan) and Melody Goh (the same ol’ gal).



Items on display. Can't believe that our fellow schoolmate still keep them in good condition. Kudos to Melody Goh! Doiii tu nametag bah...tapi paling teruk lower secondary lah...KUNING!




BOEING! BOEING! BOEING! BOEING! BOEING! BOEING!

The Meditarranean Bar & Restaurant, First Beach, Tanjung Aru

As I entered the Meditarranean Restaurant, I saw may familiar faces (all actually). Everyone was busy updating each other. While looking for Mildred Sikayun and Fiona Chuan, I bumped into Chesity Boon Mei Mei (whom by the way still the same Chesity). She supplied the sound system.

Chesity Boon Mei Mei & Jocelyn Lee

I sat with Mildred (married with one kid), Fiona (married with one kid) and Jocelyn Lee (whom by the way kurus even though she has 2 sons).

Mildred Sikayun & Fiona Chuan

The event started with Deborah Suzanne Disimon (married with one kid) and Chesity Boon made the introduction. Then, speeches by Christine Fletcher (still kurus) and Michelle Ann Iking (gorgeous as usual).

Aloy did a multimedia presentation on LCD. It was really nice to see old pictures (muka-muka woros). We had a good laugh to see our dulu-dulu punya gambar. Oh ya, throughout the event background music mostly from the 90’s (thanks to Chesity!). Keluar lagu2 like “A Shoulder to Cry On by Tommy Page”, “I Wanna Sex You Up”, “Pump Up the Jam” and loads more. After the multimedia presentation, then of course makan time.

Then after makan, we played some games namely Guess Who? (write the full name of each picture) and our team won (Liza is a fast writer). We got the SFC T-Shirt each.


The frontal of the T-shirt

Then a game on our knowledge on movies during the 90’s, name that tune (the DJ will play songs of the 90’s and we have to jot down) and also each person were given the opportunity to nominate “Who changed the least” (won by Aloysia) and “Who you expect turned out to be what you have expected” (won by Chesity).

After that, we sang the school song. Both in English and Malay! And surprisingly, I could still remember most of the lyrics and so could many of us. The 6kg cake (in the shape of SFC badge) was cut by Aloysia.

All sang the school song

6kg cake in the shape of SFC badge..yummy..


Aloy has the honour of cutting the cake

After that, Melinda J. Bagiu sang a song (sorry can’t remember the title) and she still has her Bakat Interact winning voice! I also met Dr. Judy Siambun (who works at Kota Marudu hospital), Adeline Hendry (residing in Canada and she is due anytime – 2nd baby), Emily Amandus (works in Hyatt), Esther Majawat, Diana Mogindol, Lesley Shawna, Tayana Murugasu (residing in UK), Christine Anthony (just became a mummy in June), Jocelyn Basilius (ever kurus), Josephine Chai (works in STPC as Marketing Manager), Velerie Siambun (masih cute maciam dulu), Hana a.k.a Hubbs (begitu juga ndak pandai besar2), Shanty Toisam (you rock girl!), Faridah Jabul (iri om iri), Kitty Ku (who owns a saloon in Tg. Aru Plaza) and Kareen Lim. I left about 5.45pm. It was a great event.
