My trip in Kuching...
As promised, here are my updates on our trip in Kuching... It's quite looongggg..hope u will not get bored..

Day 1 (04/05) Thurs
Our first journey to Kuching was quite tiring...just imagine..we had to transit twice (labuan & miri) + 2 kids. Andrea enjoyed her airplane ride at first but she got bored after the 2nd transit. She said.."mommy..i want to go home already". She tot that we only like jln2x pi KK...* rolling eyes*. Charlie & I comforted her but she keep on saying the same thing....last2x i think she's too sleepy already & fell asleep. As for Andrew, he's doing fine..slept most of the time. Landed safely at KIA (Kuching International Airport) at 7.55 p.m. My inlaw was a bit late, cuz of the jam. Bah, my inlaw sampai saja..nah apalagi Andrea...she cried so very loud & keep on saying "I want to go home...I want to go home.." My mother in law can't even carry andrew..she'll even cried louder......As for andrew, he really knows the difference...of the new environment...he's sleepy but he can't sleep..nangis la apalagi.Trying to adapt i guess...managed to put him to sleep around 1 am, tu pun my father in law siap kasi bless pakai holy water lagi...felt really tired to handle both kids...well, that was our 1st day.

2nd day (05/05) Thurs
Andrea still crying everytime when she saw new faces...bukan saja nangis..shouting pun ada....*geleng kepala*. & one of charlie's aunty like to tease her by calling her "congek"...everytime when she saw andrea, she must say.."congeeeeeeeek...congeeeeek..."..And andrea will cry.."muaaaaa.....muaaaaaa.........aaaaa"..adui sakit oo telinga & sempat lagi cakap.."I'm girl bah mommy not congek.."..hehehe..clever oo my little girl..
Went to see our uni friend Mike at King's Centre around 8 pm. He blanja us makan in one of the stall. He brought his wife & his daughter (forgot the name already but it start with "A"). Her wife also just gave birth to a baby boy somewhere in Feb or March, can't remember. Forgot the name already..what i could remember is that it's start with "M". After dinner with mike, then staright to Charlie's aunt house (mama penie) for her eldest daughter (Stephanie) farewell party, she'll be doing her matriculation in Labuan. Makan lagi...very full oledi here. O forgot to mention, Andrea cried from the time we entered her aunt house till the time we wanted to go back. She keep on saying " I don't want people carry andrew" but they just don't care, they took Andrew & passed it to one & another..wah..my andrew become the center of attraction here...hehehe....I told them.."biar la si andrea tu..biar dia nangis..". Chit-chat with them & went back around 10 p.m.

Day 3 (06/05) Fri
Spend the whole day at home...we need to relax.

Day 4 (07/05) Sat
Suppose to attend Ben's wedding today but wanna know what..he postpone it last minute..grrrh!!! The new wedding receiption date is on the 11/06. Sorry mimi, tiada pics...si Ben last minute tukar. Wanna know what again, Ben will become a father this coming September..surprise surprise & some more surprise..he gonna have a baby boy..:D <---got this info from Bibi & Aldrin. Actually our intention going back before Gawai is to attend the wedding but instead of that, we attended Charlie's cousin, Tom engagement with Angela..nasib baik ada something juga...ndak sia2x juga balik..hehehe..The engament ceremony is at nite. By the time we reached there, the makan2x session has already started..good timing also la..hehe...No pics taken..sayang..forgot the camera at home.

Day 5 (08/05) Sun
Didn't go to church. Woke up late - around 8 am, the mass started at 8 am...mana sempat. Mama' also didn't go to church, she helped us to do the house chores, she cooked porridge for Andrew, she washed our clothes, hang our clothes...waaah..thanks ma'. She treat us really nice ooo...maybe because I can't do anything cuz andrew doesn't want anyone else except me, even Charlie pun dia ndak mau tu!!. Heran sia ni budak, too early to recognise ppl. If he cries, orang pun takut mo dukung...mcm kena histeria ja menangis...susa susa...he really knows my presence u know..even when i covered my face with towel, he knows I'm there...start crying already....siok juga sia rasa..mcm ada magic..hehehe..
Today is mother's day. Went to Mobin (Mervyn) house (charlie's brother) in Batu Kawa. They invited us for dinner. He lives in a police's quarters, he's a police..o ya..father in law pun police juga..:D. He got 3 daughters (Crystal 8 yrs, Yana 6 yrs & Cornelia 4 yrs)...overtake abang suda...
Since it's mother's day, Charlie bought a cake & celebrate it in mobin's house. Wah her wife Suzie pandai masak ooo. sadap sadap semua...i really like the fish soup masak with tempoyak...yummy...*drooling*. I don't care this time, I ate as much as i can...mana mo dpt rasa lagi masakan mcm ni di sabah ooo.
Here, Andrea really enjoying herself playing with her cousins. Charlie overheard their conversation & it really makes me laugh..it goes like this:

Andrea: ih..jatu' suda...(style sabah)
Yana: salah...kamu cakap salah...bukan jatu'...jatoh' (s'wak sleng)
Andrea: no...no....jatu' bah jatu'
Yana: tak...jatoh..jatoh....

Cute kan....hehehe...

Day 6 (09/05) Mon
Went to Kuching town in the afternoon. Left home around 12 noon & reached Kuching town around 1.15 p.m...punya jauh sia rasa...my dad say buli sampai papar suda tu..hehehe..Even andrew managed to sleep for at least 1 hr. Went to Riverside shopping complex & had our lunch in KFC. While eating our food, received mms from MrBadak. Chewah....beli fon baru si kawan. He sent a photo of his wife, Jo cutting their son's (Jordan) hair. Then Charlie balas balik his mms, send him our pic in KFC...hehehe...
Leyna invited us for dinner at her place in Petrajaya tmr nite. Leyna is a good friend of mine, she's my roomate during our 1st yr in UTM (She's a sabahan from labuan married to a sarawakian - same case la mcm sia), we're in the same faculty (FKKKSA) but doing different course. She's a nice person, she helped me so much in so many ways. Told Charlie I wanted to buy something for her daughter Yasmin (same age with Andrea, just 1.5 mths younger than her). Searched for a gift but don't know which one to choose...by the time we finally found the gift, Andrew started to cry already, he's sleepy. At the same time, Andrea also cried..she said she do not want to give it to yasmin....adui...both kids are crying at this moment...& i can feel that everyone is staring at us. Our mood pun hilang suda, bah apalagi..we all trus balik la. Charlie says "Bah bisuk ja la beli b4 pigi rumah leyna, kami tunggu ja kau di kreta bisuk", I really agreed with that. Then it took us another hour to reach home..*sigh*.

Day 7 (10/05) Tue
Leyna invited us for dinner around 7 pm but we leave as early as 5 pm cuz wanted to avoid the jam & also want to drop by at Riverside Shopping Complex to buy the gift. Everything went smooth, managed to buy the gift & cun2x reached her house at 7 pm.
Leyna cooked for us speghetti, french fries & baked chicken. Wah sedap ooo...wanted to eat more but Andrew started cranky suda, he's sleepy....again.
O ya, Andrea & Andrew also got a gift from Yasmin. Andrea got herself a Barbie watch & Andrew got himself a Kiko long sleeve shirt. Thanks Leyna. Suda la invite makan, kasi gift lagi tu, anyway really appreciate it a lot. So, if you're reading this, make sure u come down to KK so that we can blanja u makan ;).
I like the way they decorated their house. Look very nice, it's simple but look elegant. We went back around 9.15 am, reached home around 10 p.m.

Day 8 (11/05) Wed
At nite, visited few relatives house (father's side). We're were..i mean me + the kids were introduced to Charlie's uncles & aunties which I haven't met before. They are very friendly & nice. Eventhough they didn't know we are coming, they still prepare us food for dinner.

Day 9 (11/05) Thurs
Tonite, another dinner invitation from Aunty Len (Charlie's aunty - mother's side) at Kg. Abad. Wah lotsa food...kenyang oooo.

Day 10 (12/05) Fri
Aldrin treated us lunch today at one of the restaurant in King's Centre. Ada aunty2x dia, brother dia, of course the wife, Bibi as well. Ashley didn't come cuz still in playschool. At first, I can't enjoy the food cuz andrew keep on disturbing me...mau ambil tu piring la...garpu la...Then one of the lady there very nice..she offer her self to take care of Andrew...me apalagi....senyum lebar la....The only thing I scared is that Andrew will start crying...BUT...NO...he didn't cry at all...heran heran....maybe he want to bagi chance mommy dia makan...hehehe...Good customer service oooo org2x sana....:D..
After lunch, went to Riverside shopping complex again just to jalan2x, inside the Parkson now & jln2x around the kids dept store, the baju for the kids here are really nice, I don't think we have this kind of brand for kids in KK (Barbie/soda kids/guess/etc) - kalau ada pls inform me where....byk betul...satu level tu penuh sama baju budak...tempted juga mo beli but hmmm...budget man budget!!! Then charlie took 1 shirt..sana area "Guess" punya brand...he said..."wah cantik o yg ni"..then andrea says..."where..where..?"..Then me yg gatal mulut.."wah nice ooo andrea..like baju Hi-5"..Then i just hanged back the baju..cuz of the price..hehehe. While I walked to the other side..andrea ask me.."mommy..where's my baju?"...me, "which baju"...Andrea, "Hi-5 baju..!!!!". Charlie & me.."!@#$^&*"...I told her that the baju is not nice..next time la buy...no money I said....Adui..she cried & cried & cried...non stop..& shouted.."I WANTED MY HI-5 BAJU". One pregnant lagi stared at us like one kind, the lady at the counter also did the same thing.....then charlie asks me.."brapa la harga tu baju?"...me " errrr...rm59.00"....adui..no choice...bought her the Guess shirt & she started to smile again..Bikin girigitan kan!!!
On our way back, received call from papa', he ask us to go back home early cuz there's another invitation from Charlie's cousin, Kakak Betty. Reached home around 5.30 p.m. Sempat lagi I watched my "Dia". Leave home around 7.30 p.m & reached Kakak Betty's house around 8.10 p.m. Dinner is served and wow....the food is good man!!! sadap ooo...mama' says she's a good cook. We had nasi minyak, acar, curry, fried mee, fried fish, mix vege & sandwich. Sia makan 2 round oo...ndak peduli....:D. & Andrew, kakak Betty helped me to jaga...Andrew cried but she manage to pujuk2x him...:D.

Day 11 (Sat)
Charlie woke up early to prepare the speghetti for Aldrin + family. They are coming to visit us at Charlie's place around 11 p.m. They reached around 11.15 p.m. At first Ashley & Andrea masi malu2x...then when Andrea shows her toys...nah bekawan suda..:D. Chit-chat with each other & they left around 1 p.m.
Mama & Molly started to cook since afternoon till night, they wanted to prepare a farewell party for us..oo how sweet. All relatives are invited. Punya la penuh tu rumah but it was quite fun. I'm getting more closer to them. Andrea also enjoying herself playing with her cousins & aunties. At this stage, Andrea ndak takut org suda..she even become the leader to all the cousins & aunties, when she says "come on..", everyone will shout back "come on..." hehehe...Since she likes singing..bah she tunjuk her skill la. She sang one song..i think twinkle2x little star..then all the crowd clap at her...apalagi si andrea..sukenye dier..hehehe....
Everyone left around 12.30 a.m & we slept around 1.30 p.m.

Day 12 (Sun)
Time to go back. Can see the sadness in Mama' & papa' face. they said they gonna miss us. Andrea & Andrew haven't woke up yet. Our flight is at 9 am but have to leave around 7 am. Andrea belum bangun sbb lambat tidur kan last nite. We just carried both of them with their nighty & bawa masuk kreta. Si andrea siap ada bekas susu putih2x dekat lips dia..:D. We changed Andrea clothes in Airport while Andrew inside the plane..doi penuh betul suda pampers dia tu...hehehe. Nasib baik this time is a direct flight. Reached safely in airport KK at 10.25 am. My dad came a bit late, jam dia bilang. Then at nite, pigi attend lagi my cousin punya 21st birthday sana Kg. Maang. Makan lagi!!!
