my iphone turns green

Been 2 weeks since i came back to my hometown and my iphone turns vegetarian, huhu eating up my credit and very fast so much so sampai takuttt nak topup. Leaving a balance of 5sen, I enjoyed using the app. store and net2 with no worry with my iphone. But sampai bila!! i became a nuisance coz using my honeyLuv credit so before he turns green went to MaxisCentre -- my software old version and they gave me the latest update, iPhone iOS4 software Update. Me being lembab IT manage to update my iPhone with the latest software, with the help of the children jugak lah, huhu, my iPhone is back to its senses, normal, hehe if not either i go bonkers or my iphone kena masuk factory,hehe. Yang hairan, no prob in AbuDhabi !! and the additional in the latest saftware is "Cellular Data - On/Off" ...

Age is just a Numberrr

oo000pps it is already 10 am malaysian time when we woke up this morning of all mornin. Sume angkara KarateKid at midnyte. Actually was up at 6am for solat and wakeup the kids for solat. Remembering salam Aim who is off for class with closed eye, hehe. So oleh kerana lost half mornin had as quick gurgle and went for breakfast nd market. Today honeyLuv has to cook as I had a wedding to attend. While waiting for honeyLuv beli barang I was double parked nd saw arwah mum's friend. I was blocking her car. she opens the car door and I was just about to put the gear into R she walked away and mouthing "tak kunci". I did not get the drift until I saw her getting into a kancil which is similar to the one I blocked. MasyaAllah, silap keta rupa nyee.. So moral of the day.. will I Aged to Perfection ?? ... YaAllah berilah kesejahteraan kepada ku dunia dan Akhirat elak lah hambamu ini dari nyayok, Ameen...Ameen ...Ameen.

"Mang kabayan sesuai dengan namanya yang khas dan kental dengan cerita rakyat dari jawabarat dari namanya orang sudah mengetahui bahwa mang kabayan adalah jenis rumah makan khas sunda. Rumah makan mangkabayan sesuai dengan kekhasannya maka atmosphernya pun sedemikian rupa harus menampilkan suasana yang khas sunda dimana bangunannya menggunakan bambu dan bilik, karenanya motto nya : ” Khas Makanannya Khas Suasanannya” Sehingga kalau makan dikabayan tetap dapat merasakan suasana yang pedesan"  

we had our fill of this famous masakan sunda their specialty the fried fish MangKabayan @Balibu Restaurant Bandung, memang best dengan sambal belacan dlm piring batu, kangkong goreng, fish soup and tempe. It is simple but yummyylicious ...

LuvStoryOf Sangkuriang

 

 

 

 

TangkubanPerahu -- "upturning of (a) boat" or "upturned boat" in Sundanese, referring to the local legend of its creation. The story tells of "Dayang Sumbi", a beauty who lived in West Java. She cast away her son "Sangkuriang" for disobedience, and in her sadness was granted the power of eternal youth by the gods. After many years in exile, Sangkuriang decided to return to his home, long after the two had forgotten and failed to recognize each other. Sangkuriang fell in love with Dayang Sumbi and planned to marry her, only for Dayang Sumbi to recognize his birthmark just as he was about to go hunting. In order to prevent the marriage from taking place, Dayang Sumbi asked Sangkuriang to build a dam on the river Citarum and to build a large boat to cross the river, both before the sunrise. Sangkuriang meditated and summoned mythical ogre-like creatures -buta hejo or green giant(s)- to do his bidding. Dayang Sumbi saw that the tasks were almost completed and called on her workers to spread red silk cloths east of the city, to give the impression of impending sunrise. Sangkuriang was fooled, and upon believing that he had failed, kicked the dam and the unfinished boat, resulting in severe flooding and the creation of Tangkuban perahu from the hull of the boat ....

ImaginationNoLimit

Can u imagine the look on your friends faces when you tell them you are building a castle -- yES, building cASTLE IN THE aIR, its free with no boundaries, no borders and no zoning laws, huhu imagine the raise eyebrows ..

Actually someone said attemptng to build castles in the air is hard work and its going to keep your mind occupied for a long time -- a reason to tell people not to disturb you while busy planning your dream castle, hehe. Renovating your castle won't cost you a thing, huhu

dON'T LIKE your neighbor or your scene .. move to another cloud.. huhu its your imagination so you decide the location of your castle.

In AbuDhabi getting a parking space after 8pm is a hastle, so..have to spend hours looking for parking. jUST LOOK UP: can't u see just miles and miles of empty space. huhu wishful thinking..

eVER WONDER WHY air traffic controllers are so much nicer than some road traffic wardens??? Haven't you noticed how cheerful pilots and crew are compared with some stressed out drivers on the road?? Its obvious.. no TRAFFIC JAMs!!!

eARTH CALLING: All modern scientific discoveries were made by people who dared to dream. It is a prerequisite to becoming an inventor.. Learn to ignore those who laugh at your dreams. Who knows, you might have the last laugh!!

theMagrudy'sFever

Another friday nd this week we were off to Dubai to be with one of my sis nd family. At DubaiMall children are busy with games and skating, a big screen terpampang with football fever countdown. Not to leave out the summer sale fever for some. Whilst the kids skates papa2 nd mamas had drinks and light lunch at MBCO. Then off to Magrudy's Mall. Luv its concept they have separate lots for junior books, crafts, back to school and even a cafe sort of like delifrance, marvelous.
Craft lovers nd readers u can spend hours nd probably not enuf time if u're in Magrudy's nd probably you lost time browsing nd coming out of the shop with bags of thread for craft and books for easy reading nd a flat wallet. Its heaven for craft and book lovers. Had a most pleasurable, wonderful and fruitful day ... Magrudy's u made my day
Sis2 di mesia a must visit. Wish u all can come here nd indulge yourself ...

BoostUrBrain

Going home soon and stockup my books as i’m running out and books are expensive in AbuDhabi. Came across an article on how to boost our brain which i like as studies show that our brain loses some of its functionality as we age, which causes memory loss, brain fog, and even Alzheimers. READING and WRITING helps to keep our mind active. Writing improves memory and thought expression. Writing articles, blogs, or journal entries stimulates thought processes, which also enhances brain function. And Reading stimulates the brain as it activates our imagination. Reading also helps with memory retention and problem solving, especially if reading a mystery. Also, self-help books stimulate our brain by helping you to think for yourself, as well as find solutions in our mind.. And I believe that reading AlQuran is also the Best... And i miss doin my translation. InsyaAllah more on activities to boost our brain ...

"abANANAadAYkEEPStHEdOCTORaWAY!"
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet such as:

pMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

aNEMIA : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

bLOODpRESSURE: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure.

mOSQUITOBITES: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

nERVES: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

And not to forget petua orang tua2, cONSTIPATION: High in fiber, bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

A banana really is a natural remedy for many ills and compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around.

When it comes to weight, lack of sleep can increase levels of the hormone leptin in your blood, leaving you hungrier and likely for more yumyum. In other words, not getting good zzZZZzzzz.. is hazardous to your weight. Research has shown that people who get five or fewer hours of quality sleep each night have a significantly higher risk of obesity than people who get seven to eight hours a night.
