A boo~tiful moment...

Taken from my scribblings that was meant for a baby journal we were planning for 'Lil Dott'

April 17, 2005 - Damansara, Kuala Lumpur

One line - not pregnant, 2 lines - pregnant .... what would it be?

It was a long day. Had a brief breakfast at Mahboob's Bangsar. Stopped over at Bangsar Village's Toy's R Us to get some toys for Danish and Naufal. Then off we were to spend the whole afternoon in Shah Alam with Mak Chak, Pak Chak, Kak Nani and family and Kak Nana.


4pm - had a nolstagic stopover at VI to catch the on goings of Day 2 of the 3rd Mokhtar Dahari Cup. Kelab Ceria, ever present, though lost in the earlier rounds, enjoying a mini BBQ on the edges of the VI field. I went upstairs with Pejal to 'time-in' in the Prefects' Room. Not much had changed - the library staircase still has the same scent - the red prefects' chairs, still as comfortable as it were 10 years ago, and the blazer crests I designed were still in use after all these years...just like the VI traditionthat passes down from batches to batches.



Lissa has not been feeling well - nauseaus, diarrhea...stopped by in Bangsar's Pasar Malam for a quick dinner of road side Laksa and then to the pharmacy in Bangsar Village for the 'kit' - 'just in case' - out of curiousity on to why the ill-feeling felt by Lissa.

One line - not pregnant, 2 lines - pregnant.. - "Honey, come here look!!!...2 Lines!!!" Alhamdulillah!!!! Don't know what to say, feel or act!! Could it be really true??!!

Boo~tiful Life...so far...

Well-well-well....

lemme see...my last posting was in August 2004!! Oh my!! and its almost towards the end of the year 2005!! I'm not getting much done here, am I? I don't think so....

A LOT has been happening since August till today...firstly, although I am still where I am for the past 3 1/2 years, working as a Concierge in a 5-star hotel downtown Kuala Lumpur, I have finally begun to feel settled-in...no longer the stranger...where my opinions matter...I think you know what I mean....people are beginning to see me, and listen to me, which gives a good feeling...I know, to some it may seem a bit of a slow progress..but I guess that's the way I am...but it does feel good!!

Secondly...very VERY soon...my life will go through a very DRASTIC change...a transformation from a boy to a real MAN...my wife and I...we are expecting a BABY!! 'Lil'Dot' as we have been so fond of calling our soon to be child in mummy's bump, will be coming soon sometime in December...WOW!!! Only sensible fathers-to-be will know EXACTLY how I feel....Everything now seemes so surreal...with the kicking and nudging ...the lamaz classes....the "oh wow!!" reaction from strangers and friends when we both walk around town...at times I just don't know how to react. Should I just smile sheepishly, ignore, or be proud...(hey..in a way, its proven that I am a MAN!!)

Well..its almost 3pm now...got a 5 pm shift today, so I think I'd better get off line and get ready to work...got an extra mouth to feed!! till the next time I have the chance to blah~blah~blah on line again....Ta for now~!
