BEKAL KE SEKOLAH

Dari the girls sekolah rendah lagi, memang diorang bawak bekal ke sekolah. Mula mula tu bawakkan bekal sebab takut diorang tak pandai nak membeli kat kantin. But later, they want bekal sebab malas nak beratur or berebut membeli kat kantin sekolah.

I remembered when they were in standard 5 or 6, they were among a few kids yang masih bawak bekal but they like it that way.

Their bekal ranges from nuggets, mee goreng or just simple roti bakar sapu butter and kaya and air masak.

Now, Ms M school hours are from 7.40 to at least 3.00pm. Kalau ada CCA or ECA, it will stretch to 4 or 5pm. And she still nak bawak bekal.

Mula mula tu I just bekalkan snacks like biscuits untuk the 10 am break. Lunch dia beli kat kantin. Tapi now she prefers to bring bekal for lunch too. Especially now tengah injured kaki ni, dengan crutches and all, lagi lah malas dia nak ke kantin. Memang dia mintak bawak bekal.

These are some of Ms M's lunch and snack boxes.






 
 
Kadang kadang kalau mummy nya rajin, meriah la bekalnya. Kalau mummy nya ala ala nak bukak mata pagi pagi pun payah, simple one saja la.....

Cerita December 2015. Welcome 2016.

Sekejap saja rasa and school holiday is over. Here comes 2016.

December had been a busy month for me at work. My regional head came from Hong Kong for a visit cum audit in early December. A really stressssssssssful 3 days. On the first day of his visit, tengah tengah sibuk tu, Ms M called from school. She boarded a wrong school bus and dalam kelam kabut nak turun tu, bag dia tersangkut and she fell.... on top of another student!!! She called and said her ankle hurt so much and she cannot walk. I was on my way back from a distributor warehouse in Shah Alam with my boss and I supposed to send him back to One World Hotel in Bandar Utama. Maka nya.... detour pergi sekolah Ms M dulu ambik dia, then baru hantar my boss to the hotel.
 
Lepas tu pergi klinik, x ray and no fracture. Alhamdulilah... just balut kaki tu dengan bandage and doctor suruh rehat saja.
 
But after a week, a blue back bruises started to appear. Pergi klinik balik and the doctor said it takes time to heal. En. ID cakap masuk angin tu sebab tak urut.
 
After 2 weeks, the bruises subsided but the ankle still bengkak. Eh... tak boleh jadi ni. Pergi lagi sekali klinik and this time the doctor referred her to the orthopaedic.
 
Jumpa orthopaedic, he suspected 2nd grade ligament tear. Mungkin 50% tear but to be sure, kena buat MRI.
 
MRI result showed 2 ligaments completely torn. 3 partially torn. Its quite bad actually and I felt guilty as we took it lightly and only went to see the orthopaedic after 2 weeks it happened.
 
But since we're going to Bangkok that weekend, the doctor prescribed an ankle brace and she has to use crutches to support her movement. No splint sebab berat and susah nak move about nanti. He will review the healing progress and hopefully no surgical intervention required.
 
But that's my Fluff. Happy as usual. Asik kena remind her not run, to walk slowly, jangan lompat lompat. Memang tak boleh duduk diam budak sorang tu.
 
So since all has been arranged, we went ahead with the Bangkok trip, crutches and all. But we had a good support from the airlines in arranging wheelchair at the airport here and Bangkok. Dapat lalu special lane all the way and ahamdulillah, all went well during the journey.
 
Now, its been 3 weeks since the physiotherapy started. Last week we went for follow up and the doctor said not much progress but will review again in 2 weeks time.
 
So, itu kisah Ms M.
 
Travel wise, I did not travel anywhere for work this month. We went to Cameron Highland for a short vacation in late November and it was superb!!!! We really enjoyed CH. The last time we went to CH was like 10 years ago!!!
 
Then we went back to Batu Pahat in mid December. Jalan jalan cari makan as usual.
 
And we went to Bangkok a week after that.
 
Ms A enjoyed her holiday to the max. Makan tido, makan tido saja. Baru last weekend nak tengok homework and prep for back to school.
 
Life is still good without bibik. We got the hang of it already I guess.

We welcome 2016 with old resolutions... ahaks...!!!! Nak kurus... nak kurus... nak kurus....

2016 - Ms A will take her SPM.
2016 - Ms M will have her checkpoint exam

We hope 2016 will be as good if not better as 2015. Insya Allah.

Here some pictures from our holiday.
