movie time | The good dinasour - memang sgt besh and touching!

ari sabtu..mr hubby keje half day..so tunggu mr hubby balik dari keje...so lps solat asar, our lil family pegi TGV AU2..sampai kat situ dh pukul 5, so next show of the movie Good Dinosaur ialah pukul 6.15 pm...tix utk 2 adult and 2 kids ialah RM56..tix mahal sikit sbb show after 6 pm..kalau show before 6 pm dpt tix RM10 jer per pax (kata staff tgv kat kaunter tu lah, sbb me komplen eh naper mcm mahal plak tix ni :p)

sblm tu weolls pegi mkn (early dinner ) kat Nandos..abih dekat RM80 gaklah for our lil family..

citer ni under disney, so sgt cantik animasinya..mcm real
and bila dh tgk movie ni..rasa terbuai2 gitu..rasa mcm masuk dlm dunia tu gak

ni me tepek sinopsis from imdb dan tgv website

An epic journey into the world of dinosaurs where an Apatosaurus named Arlo makes an unlikely human friend.

"What if the cataclysmic asteroid that forever changed life on Earth actually missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct?", that is the big question asked in this movie. This movie tells the humourous tale of Arlo, a lively 70-foot-tall teenage Apatosaurus with a big heart. The dinosaur befriends an unlikely friend when it was out on a quest to restore peace - a young human that goes by the name Spot.

..yg pasti, citer ni sgt menghiburkan, sarat dgn message kekeluargaan, persahabatan, emosi..dan ada part touching
mula2 masa papa dinosaur tu mati lemas sbb nak selamatkan Arlo--Arlo tu watak utama ie hero lah..papa Arlo nama henry...henry nak sgt tgk Arlo jd berani and independent mcm dua abg2 Arlo yg lain...bila Henry mati tu....sedey laaa sbb tiba2 teringat arwah ayah MZ :'(
and ada watak Henry dtg nasihatkan Arlo tapi dlm bentuk roh lah..time Arlo pengsan sbb nak selamatkan Spot

and then endingnya sedey giller--alahai me siap ternangis part ending tu...time Arlo and Spot nak say bye2 :'( -- Spot tu watak budak lelaki kecik tu (tarzan junior kot)..

siyes sgt besh lah citernya...menyentuh emosi juga memberi inspirasi ..about being courage, survival...

me bagi 4.5 dari 5 bintang!!

Healthier alternatives perhaps?

faktor usia yg semakin meningkat...so stamina dan metabolisme memang decreasing as the age increasing..

dua elemen utama utk gaya hidup sihat--kena exercise/kuarkan peluh
and jaga mkn (a.k.a tak leh bedal ikut suka hati mcm time umur 20s)

bab2 exercise...memang pyh lah nak pegi gym selagi razeen tak besar ..at least mcm ariff now sbb dh independent--boleh mandi sendiri pegi toilet dan tidur sendiri

bab2 jaga mkn..memang dh start last few months...mkn dlm keadaan conscious gitu..wpun tak dpt nak folo atkins style 100%, tapi boleh lah folo setakat 80% tu..in terms of pengurangan carbo and healthy diet...

deep in my heart...memang nak lah dptkan berat bdn yg ideal (wpun tak seselim mcm zmn bujang)..
working hard towards it wpun tak consistent sgt..

sup sayur...wpun mkn gak fish ball(failed utk menu atkins sbb ada elemen tepung gandum/carbo) ..tp rasanya this menu is a lot healthier compared to apa2 menu nasi or mee or bihun

sbb join group atkins so now kenallah benda ni..ie flax seed--pengganti kpd flour/tepung gandum..wpun rasa tak sesedap gandum, tp bila flaxseed ni dikisar/blend and dijadikan cekodok, boleh lah ditelan and memang mengenyangkan...

tak de short cut lah kalau nak maintain healthy menu..ikut pada keazaman masing2 gitu
salam jumaat al-mubarak
seoul dh start snow semlm ;) -- wait for us yer seoul ;)

MPH Readers' Circle

sebenarnya tak delah shop regularly kat MPH, tp now sbb zharfan addicted with books diary of wimpy kids..so every month lah beli buku ni nampak gayanya...so alang2 kan..terus sign up jd member...RM20 for 2 yrs...affordable lah..boleh collect points and boleh dpt discount 10% for children's books

buku diary of wimpy kid yg dibeli semlm berharga RM35+-, so dptlah diskaun RM3.50. kira oklah tu :)

nanti boleh beli story books utk ariff dan razeen jugak

have a nice day everyone!!

Countdown

plus minus..ada lebih kurang 2 minggu lg sblm kami fly for cuti2 seoul..my annual leave pun dh approved..hoorayyy

byk benda yg mendebarkan dan mengujakan..
antaranya...

#sbb ni 1st time nak jejak kaki kat bumi korea...
#sbb this holiday, my mom pun ikut sekali, jugak my niece...so memang meriah gitu!!
#sbb pegi time winter..so tak leh imagine how cold it is...sbb based on citer2 org..katanya winter kat seoul ni sgt extreme..a lot colder compared to Notts...risau jugak takut my mom tak tahan sejuk wpun dh get ready dgn winter jacket gloves socks etc

Big Fat Orange lover

big fat orange = garfield!

oh yeah...mz ni peminat garfield since zmn sek men...zmn uni memang semua brg2 kat bilik themed garfield..like cadar, bantal, curtain, deco2 etc

tp dh lama tinggalkan koleksi gitu sbb sibuk dgn anak2 :p

and now garfield is back!!

oh yeah, nak beli nak beli!!! berkenan sgt dgn trolley bag tu!! tp kena kumpul 20 stamps dulu..semlm dh dpt 1 stamp ;)..promonya baru start semlm..spend RM20, dpt 1 stamp..so more reasons to shop at guardian laaa nmpk gayanya!!

Nervousness is over

dh few days nervous sbb kena buat one task yg agak mencabar for me as lecturer yg mana not so senior compared to my other colleagues yg rata2 memegang title prof madya dan prof

alkisahnya our faculty has MOU with MACA ie akademi SPRM..so nak kena bg lecture utk officers from SPRM
there are 5 lecturers involved including myself..so we are given different session to deliver our lectures

why nervous??
nervous lah sbb jrg2 kot bg lecture kat officers yg mana ada senior officers gak ni
kalau present paper kat conference, the nervousness tu lain sikit
me pernah bg lecture kat DBKL, kat SME participants..pun nervous gak lah--tp that is citer last year and last few years

so my session was done yesterday...alhamdulillah!! it went ok, wpun not so smooth--sbbnya i had tough times lecturing in BM--memang all the time lecturing in English kat UIA and UKM..certain legal terms memang pyh nak translate to BM!! references pun majority in English kan..my slides memang in English cuma explanation mixed in BM and English

so my task is over!! challenging indeed ..tp once it's done, rasa satisfied, lega, puas ati gitu ;)
have a nice day everyone

ni bilik tempat me present semlm..1st time jejak kaki kat MACA tu..

UPSR dulu vs UPSR sekarang

emmm semlm tak buat entry...sbb tak sempat..byk kelas etc..
anyway semlm adalah hari result UPSR..penuh newsfeed dgn updates UPSR kwn2 FB yg ada anak yg dh amik UPSR..majority dpt straight A's..kebanggaan utk setiap ibu bapa esp parents zmn moden yg mana serba serbinya mencabar and competitive....persaingan yg sgt sengit dlm bidang akademik..those yg tak dpt bersaing memang akan left behind lah...persepsi most people..tak dpt straight A's tu mcm dh gagal gitu...anyway, persepsi masing2 kan...esp di zaman FB ni

I took UPSR tahun 1988..
those days..no stress no pressure..i did not remember doing revision or pulun2 study mcm time study kat uni or study for SPM..
yg pasti...memang happy2 jer time zmn sek rendah..even time sit for UPSR pun...blurry memory...

alhamdulillah...I got 5As--i'm the only one..SKPK..sek kampung kan..
tak denya cikgu2 nak pressure or aim nak berapa org yg dpt straight A's etc
and result slip pun..cikgu yg taip kat atas kertas ie guna mesin taip--dh obselete kot mesin taip yg manual tu nowadays (of course bukan print out guna komputer)...

i masih simpan lagi lg slip result tu..lupa nak snap pic and upload here..kertasnya dh jd warna kekuningan...
and i think thn 1988, tak denya sampai 38k calon yg dpt straight A's seluruh msia..
so memang jauh berbeza zmn 1980s and zmn sekarang (tahun 2015)

my zharfan will sit for UPSR in 2017 (rasanya dh tukar nama pun kan UPSR ni starting next year)..
of course seboleh mungkin nak tgk he got straight A's jugak..my legacy..in fact my siblings' legacy gitu...apa2 pun cuba yg terbaik dan berdoa ke hadratnya

congrats to my BFF ayu rafikah sbb her daughter dpt straight A's..well done!!

gmbr hiasan semata2...dare to dream and strive to catch it!!

have a nice day everyone
