HOT HOT HOT.. till WHAT?!

It is a habit for me to browse through the Star online newspaper every day. I'm usually attracted by news that has interesting headlines (headlines about politics don't attract me).

I bumped into one today that says "HOT, hot, hot till September". My jaw just dropped. :O

I'm not a fan of heat unless I'm at the beach/on a holiday. I don't like heat mainly because I sweat easily. Everyone who knows me well knows that I would sweat by standing under the sun for just a minute. I don't like how the heat can make me very tired/moody.

I don't avoid it because it gives me a tan. (As much as I love to have a healthier colour skin, I can't.) I avoid it because it's not healthy for the skin.

During the days that my dad could not afford an air conditioner in the room, he would usually put a towel behind my back, underneath my shirt to "absorb" my sweat so that I could sleep better. :) (Ahhh.. those were the days. Very pampered.)

Now with air conditioner in every room, I would resist switching it on until I can't stand the heat any longer or when my husband is in the room with me. (He has very low tolerance towards heat.) I do this mainly to save electricity and the earth. (My tolerance for heat can be quite high even though I hate it. I can sleep when there isn't any power supply.I guess my love for sleep is much stronger than my hatred towards heat.)


Clear blue sky.
My grandma would say "This is the perfect weather to dry your clothes!"
I guess all housewives would be thankful for such a weather.

The heat would go on until September! That's 4 more months! As much as I admit, time flies, 4 months of heat can be very unpleasant.


Poor boy.
Dogs or any animals would feel the heat even more. To save them from being dehydrated, keep pails of water outside for them to drink. Nougy tend to sleep beside the pails or against the wall. It helps cool him down.

I must pray every day for God to bring some rain at least 2-3days a week. Mainly to cool down the earth and to avoid any shortage of water supply.

And also for the air conditioning in the KTM Komuter coaches to be in working order. (Imagine getting sandwiched every morning/evening in a train that does not have air conditioning in this weather? You would prefer to walk home!)

The weather...

.. makes me feel oh-so-lazy! :P

Was suppose to clean the house but I can't seem to get started!

I went for breakfast at Tanjung, SS14. Wanted to try the nasi lemak stall opposite Tanjung (was attracted by the crowd that queues up for it every day), unfortunately, it wasn't opened! Then I realised.. oh yes, today is Haji! :)

To my friends celebrating Haji, may your prayers be answered. :)

I'm always wondering when exactly is the rainy season? I guess there's a lot of things that we can't tell these days especially the weather due to global warming. :(
I pray that it will be a cool not rainy day on our wedding day. A cooling day will do. :))

Speaking of our wedding, it's 3 weeks & 5 days more to go. We went for food tasting at the hotel last night. Fok & Eric were our "special guests". The food was really good. We especially love the chicken & fish. :)

Han & I also met our cupcake/wedding cake maker. She gave us samples of the cupcake & minced pies that we are going to have. It was very pretty! I have to say, she really shows that she loves what she does. :)
And of course, the cupcakes were very tasty! Even my mum was impressed (gave her one during dinner). My dad was impressed by the minced pies which we will be giving out as church favours. :)
I can't wait to see the whole setup of the cupcake & cake on our wedding day! hehehehee.. I'm so excited.

I also can't wait to see our flower decorations! hehehe.. I'm especially looking forward to our car decor as we chose a different type of design. The usual design is with organza/netting. We are not going to use any of those. :) Won't reveal the decor now also. hahaha..
Really hope that the flowers & leaves that we want will be available on our wedding day. The florist did warn us that there might be a chance that the flowers that we chose may not be available. So we have to be prepared to see the back-up flowers/leaves. :)

Haaa.. there's so many happy things to look forward to on that day. Of course there are things that we are afraid of. There might be things that won't turn out as how we want it to be.. but we'll accept it as our fate and hope to find the fastest solution to every obstacle that arises on that day! :))
