The absense

Apologies to all for being away for some time. The main reason, my laptop is shutting down: it shuts off every 30 minutes or so, hence writing is out of the question now. Even now, I am typing out whatever comes to my head so to record whatever I could and hopefully, able to post up soon.

Anyway, to update, Fluffy is doing better now. So much better that she's back to her previous self and stays in her very heat phase. Sharul and I decided not to let her mate either Prince Whiny or Tiger til at least next month in December. But yesterday, when visiting the cats, I found what I fear most: Sharul's sister let Fluffy and Prince Whiny together! She even recorded their first attempts: 21st November. I couldn't find my own words *SIGHH!!*

Still about the cats, Luna gave birth to 3 kittens, but 1 died. We decided to name both after Luna's initial name "L" so we named the male Logan, and the female Lolita. They were borned a few minutes after my very first nephew was borned. Muhammad Aqeel Faeeq was borned on 25th November 2010 at 11pm, the kitties at just after midnight of 26th.

Our first nephew: Muhammad Aqeel Faeeq :) He is such a darling!!

Lolita: blue, and Logan: cream/white

Okay, other reasons why I was quiet, was because I was commanding a three-day leadership camp at school. On the same day it started, DF's college friend from Thailand came visiting us so after the camp was over, we became her official tour guides. Now we know why tour companies give expensive packages. Becoming one is very VERY exhausting!! We must have been very hospitable that Ammy decided to stay longer in Brunei than her initial plan to just stay for 5 days. She left last Sunday, after being here for 10 days. Glad that she had fun here. We would see her again this January in Bangkok :)

And so, speaking of January, it's 38 days left for our solemnization. Now our invitation cards are stuck there in Bandung. We've got problem with the postage system there. It's just ridiculously expensive. For every 10kg, it would cost us B$130 and both our invitation cards and souvenirs are 60kg. You do the calculations. The figures give us a sudden head scratch! We would try finding a postage company from here and hope that they will charge it cheaper when bringing the stuff from there to here. Fingers cross!

And the honeymoon drama gave me a heavy migraine yesterday. DF and I decided to spend 3 nights in Korea and the next 7 days in Ko Samui Thailand, after spending 2 nights at Ammy's resort in Bangkok. Yesterday's news on North Korea's attack on the southern part of Korea have made DF and I to think twice to have our honeymoon there. Now in plan is either Japan, or simply spending our honeymoon in Thailand. Ammy suggested that we go to Chiangmai then Bangkok. We'll see to that. Apart from the cheap five star hotels, the resorts are pretty charming that even Ammy herself wanted to join us! LoL~! I miss that crazy girl! LoL!!

We shall begin our Nikah courses in December. They accepted my request and agreed to let us attend the course before the solemnization ceremony now. However, we would have to travel a long journey to Serasa than attending the mosques near where we live. That is fine with us, as long as we don't have to leave work again after our two-weeks honeymoon leave.

I shall start decorating my hantarans after 7th December next month. I will have to be involved in yet another camp. This one is rather bigger than the one I was just commanding. Danny and I were the Camp Commandants in its 2008's. This time, we requested to be just the committee members. And I have excused my self from staying overnight at a jungle in Labi; one of the activities scheduled.

By the way, I have just started going to the gym. Yesterday's first time was rather relaxing and Adrian, a colleague, was such a patient trainer. I floated in the pool with his help yeayy~~ :D And without Zir, who keeps on pushing me to go to the gym, I would be weighing more and more each day now. Yesterday's 2 hours in the pool, and another session in the sauna, steam bath and jacuzzi, I am proud to say that I have lost a kg! :D I wanna lose at least 10kg before January. Yea funny, I find it impossible! LoL! But I enjoyed the time at the gym. It was tiring but relaxing at the same time :) I shall try do it every day now..
