hello sweet tooth.

I need a distraction. 
I need to avoid thinking about what’s in store for me (and everyone else) at work next month, in other words, next Wednesday.

Mr Sunshine bought a pack of pineapple tarts a few days ago. It’s gone now, thanks to my insatiable sugar cravings.
You know how normally people look for rendang, ketupat, lemang etc during Aidilfitri ? 
I, on the other hand, actually look forward to all the yummy sweet Raya cookies ! 
So friends, you don’t have to work up a sweat in the kitchen if I tell you I am dropping by, just get your cookie jars ready for me. Hehe. 🙂
I received the cookies I ordered from one of the hospital staffs yesterday, and I’m gonna be needing loads of willpower to resist gobbling up all of ’em before Aidilfitri. 
But it seems sooooo impossible ! Help !

My tummy’s still burning from the extra spicy sambal tumis I had last night. 
But it was delicious, and I am happily gonna take all the credit for preparing it. Hehe.

Here’s to a good week ahead, everyone ! 🙂
And HAPPY MERDEKA DAY !

transition.

What a day.

I went to work feeling quite happy because I just found out last night that I am already confirmed. Sah dalam perkhidmatan. Alhamdulillah.
But then, just as I stepped into my office, I found out that my head of department is leaving ! :'(
She will be transferred to Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah (HSNZ), Kuala Terengganu. Her place will be taken over by someone new. Not new new, she’s a U54 pharmacist.
But she’s definitely new to me. 🙁
All this will be happening effective September 1st. 🙁
My head of department is awesome, just in case you people did not know.
The best boss anyone could ever ask for. She’s kind, helpful, considerate, smart and just downright nice. 
You can talk to her about almost anything, work or non-work related.
She won’t get mad at you in public, any criticisms will be given out one-on-one. Everything done so professionally.
I have so much respect for her.
SIGH.

And only Allah knows how our new head of department will be like.
Hope and pray.
Hope and pray.
SIGH.

It’s pay day today. Alhamdulillah.
And we’re getting an extra RM500 this year. Alhamdulillah.
But I am still broke.

Oh sigh.

btn for the forth time.

Good morning Tuesday !
How was your sahur ?
I reheated last night’s berbuka food, I am so fortunate that Mr Sunshine’s not fussy when it comes to food.

He’s currently watching Leverage on his computer while waiting for Subuh prayers.
We have a 1-day Biro Tatanegara (BTN) course happening in Seremban tomorrow, so we’re hoping he gets permission to leave work early as the journey would take almost 8 hours from here.
I, on the other hand, have been given the privilege of a ‘traveling day’ by my boss. Mr Sunshine is entitled to a traveling day too, but according to the authorities at his workplace, he’d have to choose either the day before OR the day after, so he’s going for the day after (the course finishes at 1700 hours tomorrow, so it’s a bit ridiculous to be driving 8 hours back here right after that and to be at work the next day).
My boss told me it was the day before AND the day after. Who am I to argue with that eh ? Haha.

While we’re still on the topic of BTN, I just have to tell you that mum in-law pulled some strings and got my baju kurung for the course sewn in one night !
We’re required to wear a white top/baju kurung top and black or dark coloured kain. At first I wanted to buy myself a new Canggih school uniform top (ah, the memories !) and go on a hunt for a black coloured kain, but mum in-law told me she had a friend who could sew it for me.
Of course I thought it was impossible because as with all tailors, they should be super busy with baju Raya tailoring at this time of the year.
But (super)mum in-law made a call, and before I knew it I was buying black and white material on Saturday afternoon and had my baju kurung ready on Sunday morning !
Awesome tak ? 😀
Now if only I had a pair black shoes…

I am wondering why my last month’s claim is not credited into my account yet. It has been almost 2 weeks now. Hmm.
Note to self: Call the accounts unit TODAY.

If all goes well, I should be able to fast tomorrow. I hope.

I’m gonna try to go back to bed after Mr Sunshine leaves for work.
Although I doubt I would be able to because I have this worry about my claim thingy in my head.
Anyway, here’s to a wonderful week for all of us ! ;D
