a very productive weekend

i have never felt so irritated with Facebook before. and all the while i've never found any faults with it. i get to upload a bunch of photos without hassle, i get to keep track of all my friends, and i get to entertain myself when i'm bored stiff with nothing to do. it's a way i get to connect with the outside world =).

until now.

i keep getting messages that my profile is temporarily under maintenance, will be available in few minutes, or something like that. bahhh. it's been temporarily under maintenance like FOREVER. after that i got blocked from sending messages via FB just because i got irritated with the stupid application for not being able to send a message so i impatiently clicked on the Send button one time too many. now i'm not sure when i'll be able to reply messages via FB, sigh (to Sya, yes, i can wait until then, no worries =) at least i know it'll go to a good home!). my friend list is now officially screwed up (and i spent almost an hour just trying to organize them into groups too =( huargh). sometimes the reply box seem to have just disappear even though i've refreshed the page a million times. there are also times when i get the message that you're not allowed to post a comment, or some other sort of pigeon shyte (i've been trying to reply to ito's Question on where the RS went but until now to no avail. marahhhh ok). and the list just goes on and on...

has anyone been experiencing this the past weekend? or am i being discriminated? i am already pissed to the max. like they say, why tinker with an already-good running application? grrrrrr.

actually this wasn't my main post. i guess i got carried away with my raves =P since i'm pissed off and in no mood and might be suffering from pre-PMS, i feel so demotivated and miserable and feel like jumping out the 72nd floor window (which we fortunately don't have).

i'll expand this later on, but here are the gists of what i've been up to last weekend:

-- Nicholas & Diana's wedding


this was my first Christian wedding i've ever attended. Diana bugged me all year to come, and told me to bring LO along. lol. i remember those days when Diana was still new to my co and a total stranger to me, haha. Diana's a really fun person. and she loves to bully me T_T. i'm guessing she'll be bullying Nicholas after this, haha. Nicholas is just as sweet. i remember offering to tapau food for me and shishi when we didn't go down for lunch. that was ages ago. a whole bunch of Intecians were present as well, even shishi, who still looks like a kid as ever =D (ok shishi don't be angry ok? =P).

Di was so pretty! we shared a pew with Edwin and the wifey, he brought Gwen along too. so the little ones entertained themselves with exchanging gift baskets of candy with each other while the ceremony was going on, haha (oh yeah, thanks wah jei for the burger! =P). Dayana was so happy to roam about the isle during the photo session. she even allowed Jeannie to hold her hand while walking about, totally oblivious to everyone around her. haha. that's new. i'm just afraid she might just get up and go off with a stranger one of these days T_T. i'm just happy she's more open to people now.

congratulations Nico and Di *hugs* thanks for inviting me!

ooh i love these two people =)

-- wrap meet up in MV


i was actually only supposed to meet up with Leen and pass her my mille to try. in the end it ended up being a wrap stash partay. hahahaha. Sya wanted to see my mandarin, so i brought that along. Lixa wanted to try my OMT, and i brought Claudia for fun. we met up at this cafe where we had ample space to try out wrapping without having to worry about mucky floors.

i had fun actually. lixa paling semangat try all the wraps. Dayana was having fun running around the cafe and dragging Aunty Sya's handbag along (sorry ye Sya -.-). the husband's were not bad company either. hahaha. even ito, the oldie so-called otai in wraps dropped by to give a few pointers =). and Dayana had someone to play with for a while, until she decided that wandering aimlessly pleased her more.

after the meet up i wandered around MV with Sya until her husband came to pick her up =D. Dayana fell asleep in Syaz's Tibet RS but it kept slipping after a while so Sya suggested wrapping her up. it worked for a while... but she woke up not long after that. i guess Dayana's not a wrap baby =(. and that was my first time wrapping in public, lol.

not too long after that, wrap-mania broke out in MBW, hahaha.

-- visited Pak Long & Mak Long in Melawati

i haven't been to my uncle's place in a long time, so decided to go for a quick visit to see how they're doing. she was pretty excited, actually. i think the last time Dayana ever saw them was during last year's raya, when she was only about a month old. she immediately made a beeline for the lego. and she did her usual, make a mess, move on to next location, continue making more mess, and so on, lol. she now knows how to drink from a straw (i dunno who taught her that) so when Pak Long gave me a box of ribena, she was so excited to drink from it. can't give her the box though, she'll end up squeezing everything out.

there was pretty much alot of space for her to move about in Pak Long's house, so i guess that's partly why she's excited - she got to roam free! haha. Pak Long ordered Dominoes for lunch. Dayana was pretty excited to have pizza, she impatiently took my hand and pushed it towards the pizza =P. we couldn't stay long though, had another function to attend, so we left as soon as the afternoon rain let up.

we'll visit again =D

- Zack's early First Birthday in KJ

it didn't cross my mind that this mini gathering Aunt Ruby was talking about was actually an early birthday party for Zack, and also because Kak Tasha was back visiting. so when i arrived the jelly cake had already been cut, and everyone was already moving on to dessert. i had wanted to melantak more (there was roti jala! and bihun soup! yummyyyyyyyyyy) but i had just swallowed 5 pieces of pizza earlier so i was full :S. zack is BIG. total mat salleh look. guess the British gene outshines the Malay gene, huh? =P

most of my younger cousins were around so i let Dayana run around the house as she pleased. Nedd wanted to check out my stash. she loves the OMT. it's no wonder. everyone does. which is why it's sooo pricey in the first place, haha. i stayed until 9-ish, after another round of bihun soup (haiz, i wished i had tapaued back =P). Dayana got a party favor bag!

chillin out on her cousin's rocker

i was supposed to meet up with a friend at Pavillion after that, but i was running late because of Dayana's nap schedule (which was why she was soo full of energy earlier at Pak Long's house, which continued all the way to Nedd's house, haha). she immediately fell asleep in the car and didn't wake up until the next day. come to think about it, she'll doze off to sleep around 10pm-ish the whole time i was staying over at my parent's place. it's when her Daddy is around that her sleeping times will go out of whack. sheesh.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
well, that's my weekend for you! (more photos later, mata dah rosak for staring at the screen for too long).

now that there are more babies in the family, Nedd's place has transformed into Babyland. i found one of the toys at the house really fascinating. i think it was one of Zack's birthday gifts. Dayana seems to love playing with the blocks. i wonder if i can find this in Malaysia.

I'm slowly turning into a Facebook hater myself too now. Everything about it annoys me. Trying to use it less. In the meantime, I found joy in Tumblr lol.

Looks like a beautiful wedding. Nice photos too.

Your wraps collection is growing!

ray: i'll try and see if the elc branches in Malaysia has it or not. i'm on the lookout for safety gates as well.

munira: yes, i know. so i'm in the midst of destashing! oh, FB seems to be back to normal - i think. but i'd rather not say anything, i might jinx it =P.
btw, what the heck is Tumblr?
