Lunch date with someone..

...someone : carneyz!

alkisahnya carneyz ada buat entry kat her blog...

MZ terpilih as one of top commentators yayyy (tak sangka pun!) tp MZ memang suka baca her blog entries..so MZ memang suka leave komen kat her blog!

so carneyz ajak MZ lunch date!! ni kali ke3 lah kami berjumpa....kali pertama was masa carneyz buat open house raya kat rumah dia (last 2 or 3 yrs), then last year, kami jumpa beramai2 kat KLCC masa fanny dtg msia...then semlm, kali ke3 tapi kali pertama jumpa berdua!

kami mkn2 kat chef wan cafe dlm KL East Mall...ni my drink...pineapple asam boi

yg biru ni carneyz punya (lupa nama minuman ni)

mee rebus cik ani ni carneyz punya...antar signature dish kat sini

ni posing2 lps dh setel bayar --carneyz belanja our lunch date ni!

ni signature dish jugak ie appetizer cucur udang..tak abih ni wpun kami share mkn berdua, so MZ tapau bwk balik (kena byr RM2 utk take away packaging--dulu2 tak de caj tau...MZ rasa now new management laaa)

carneyz bg hadiahhhh..ni kad ucapan

telekung tea dan ada pinky bag tu jugak setnya..dan ada keychain personalized jugak tu...MZ suka sgt semua hadiah niiii

tq carneyz sbb bagi hadiah dan belanja lunch. moga u terus murah rezeki..aamiin

thanks for the frenship jugak...from virtual to real one! personally, MZ rasa sgt serasi dan ngam berkawan dgn carneyz ni wpun she is a lot younger than me...sbb mcm byk berkongsi minat yg sama especially travel dan benda2 lain jugak! so byk benda yg kami bualkan sepanjang2 lunch date ni :)..kena cari masa utk date lain next time sbb byk lagi nak borak2.

good frens are like flowers..they cheer us up and brighten our days!!

salam hari khamis uolls!

The theme was gold and white..

..but I don't have any clothing in that colour combination!!

alkisahnya, semalam 28/7/26, telah berlangsung AIKOL's appreciation day ..utk staff yg retired (ada 7 org semuanya)...then ada jugak anugerah pekerja cemerlang dlm few categories cthnya teaching, research, admin staff etc. 

tema baju nya gold and white...MZ plak memang tak de langsung baju putih dan gold ni..

see...MZ pakai jer mana2 baju yg ada..kain tu memang ada kaler gold...baju putih tak de so MZ pakai baju hitam ajer lah..ni MZ posing dgn my colleague (Mdm Fatimawati)--baju dia sgt2 menepati tema laaa..jubah putih dan gold yg sgt cun tu!

another random pose with my AIKOL colleagues...dari kanan, Dr Edlyn (sgt muda ni..early 30s), then Dr Khariyah (my ex-coursemate), then Prof Majdah (deputy dean academic affairs), then Mdm Fatimawati, then MZ, then Dr Sahida (late 30s)...kat AIKOL dh semakin ramai lecturers muda yg join sbb nak ganti yg dh retired..(teringat zmn2 muda masa MZ mula2 join AIKOL, i was 28 y.o dan tak de phd lagi time join tu)

majlis berlangsung di dewan wadi budi (dlm UIA jugak, ie opposite AIKOL jer)

semua staff dpt goodies bag..dlm tu ada perfume, lotion dan mini sejadah.

ada mkn2 (wajib lah!) then ada photography session jugak for all staff.

ok ni semua gmbr dari official photoG (dslr)

ni sesi doa sblm event starts

MZ as award presenter (MZ head of research)..tu my boss lah dpt award

group pic...ni combined all academic staff dan admin staff AIKOL..rasanya ni dlm 2/3 jer yg dpt attend...one third tak attend (absent with apologies)

cuba cari MZ kat mana...row 2 kat tgh2 tu..dpn MZ is prof ghafur (1st row, duduk atas kerusi)

salam hari rabu uolls!

hari ni MZ nak kena masuk opis jap, then MZ ada lunch date laaa (dgn saper tuuuu)

Kali pertama ke luar negara

lambat bersiaran hari ni sbb tak buat scheduled post...kekurangan idea jugaklah hahah

so tepek screenshot (ss) ajerlah..ni MZ amik kat FB...kat group rarecation..

 MZ kali pertama travel ke luar negara naik flight ialah masa umur 29 or 30 tahun(tak ingat exact date)...masa tu dh ada zharfan (masih baby lagi dia)...MZ pergi attend one week course kat NUS, Singapore (MZ memang dh join/keje UIA masa ni)...course dan trip tu was sponsored by JIPO (Japan Intellectual Property Office)...so flightnya (Singapore Airlines), hotel & food memang covered, siap dpt elain harian lagi...cuma zmn tu MZ lom start berblog so tak boleh nak recall betul2..dan MZ tak de smartphone jugak..zmn tu dh ada handphone tp bkn smartphone mcm zmn sekarang laaa...gmbr pun tak de..rasa2nya MZ ada bwk digicam kot tp memang tak delah gmbr2 nya sbb PC MZ dh byk kali bertukar2 sejak zmn bujang sampailah sekrg umur 50 dahhh

so uolls, bila kali pertama travel ke luar negara?

salam hari selasa everyone!

Somebody had his first outing with his friends!

Somebody = my lil razeen! he will turn 12 this coming 3rd august.

MZ tak tahu nama kwn2 razeen yg dua org lagi, yg MZ kenal cuma BFF razeen ie fahimi ie yg paling kanan tu (chinese look sgt fahimi ni!)...MZ pernah hantar fahimi balik rumah dia jugak sbb dia nak rasa naik baby T.

outing gi main bowling kat wangsa walk mall, zharfan yg hantar razeen gi sini then zharfan stand by tunggu area situ jugak hahaah ie abg sulung jaga adik bongsu gitu

1st time razeen main bowling...actually our lil family tak pernah main bowling as family activities..so razeen dh request nak gi main bowling dgn our lil family plak later2 sbb dia kata best sgt main bowling tu🤣🤣🤣

papa razeen tanya dia, dpt no berapa main bowling tu..razeen kata dia dpt no3 dari 4 org tu hehehe...oklah tuuuu sbb 1st time main kan

time flies..tgk2 dh besar dah my anak bongsu ni...lps bday next week, nak kena cari masa gi buat mykad plak.

salam hari isnin uolls

Hello Turkish Airlines | Miles & Smiles

tagline Turkish Airlines membership (frequent flyer) ialah Miles & Smiles == hampir 100% nak sama dgn nama blog kecik MZ ni...sumpah tak tiru! I started my blog in 2007...zmn tu MZ tak amik tahu pun psl syarikat penerbangan(fly gi UK pun naik MAS ajer, tahu MAS jer..dan naik jugak AirAsia masa fly to UK thn 2009 tu)..

anyway, MZ random jer pilih nama blog as Miles of Smiles sbb suka rhyming words dan memang nak describe blog kecik MZ ni as my personal journal utk happy2 stories jer (jrg2 jer MZ post kisah2 sedey)

so far MZ dh 2x terbang dgn Turkish Airlines (TA)..first time 2024 masa gi UK dan 2nd time, may thn ni ie pergi amsterdam..tp tak terbukak hati nak register sbg member (dh rugi terlps utk collect beribu2 loyalty points tu)

better be late than never..so semlm ptg MZ dh register (bknnya susah mana pun nak register, simple dan cepat ajer)...niat di hati, nak travel awal tahun dpn kalau tiada aral.

alang2 entry related to travel, MZ tepek quotes psl travel..tak kisahlah travel abroad naik flight or even road trip dlm msia pun...travel and make sweet memories! anyway, next weekend MZ and lil family plan nak gi staycation kat melaka for our razeen's bday. moga2 smooth semuanya

happy sunday uolls!

Finally..after one year and 5 months

...siap jugak my photobook cuti2 swiss ni..semlm MZ selamat terima...MZ buat dan submit order weekend lps ie hari ahad rasa2nya...so waiting time 5 days which is ok sgt!

this time, MZ buat hardcover image wrap, saiz memang amik saiz biasa ajer ie 11.5x8...this time layout potrait..MZ buat 80 pages ni... harga sgt ok sbb beli voucher pixajoy time promo kat shopee so MZ byr RM93.65 (dan dh termasuk postage laaa)...last year MZ ada jugak buat versi gini (utk photobook cuti2 UK) tp time tu rege above RM100 dan kena top up byr postage RM10

gigih nak record...pegang hp tgn kanan, belek2 tgn kiri, so pyh nak belek betul2 :p

kenangan terindah sgt sbb swiss ni my bucketlist, syukur sgt sbb dpt capai impian (travel wishlist)..dan sampai sekrg masih teringat2 cantiknya semua tmpt yg MZ visit...

happy weekend uolls!

Congrats my dear Zharfan

alhamdulillah, ptg semalam, dh keluar result utk final exam kat UIA..zharfan sekrg sem 2 tahun 2, so oct nanti sem baru, akan masuk 3rd year dah dia :)

syukur my zharfan masih maintain dean's list :)

dan nak tepek jugak psl my adik, she's a lecturer in USM...hari tu dia present paper kat conference held kat Uni of Nottingham Msia campus ie kat semenyih. My adik dapat best oral presenter dari 400 participants, 24 countries. kami semua happy dan bangga with her achievement!

memang job scope (KPI) lecturer, selain mengajar, kena present paper kat conference dan kena publish artikel dlm journal jugak. MZ pun akan present paper jugak kat conference (bln Sept nanti)..

alhamdulillah utk yg manis2 sempena jumaat almubarak

have a blessed friday uolls

hari ni MZ kena attend event (workshop) kat KL Convention Centre (sebelah KLCC tu)

Dating pagi2 @CBTL

lambat bersiaran hari ni sbb keluar breakfast dulu dgn my zharfan...MZ ada meeting/discussion kat UIA pukul 9.30 am jap lg...

1st time ambil air mixer berries ni (beria nak try sbb dpt discount voucher RM5) ni antara latest drink la, taste-wise so-so jer kat tekak MZ...MZ lagi suka mixer pineapple dan ada jeli2 gitu.

MZ mkn scramble egg dan setnya butter kaya toast..td staff tu tersilap buat telur bkn scramble egg so kena tunggu dia buat yg lain, so MZ mkn dulu rotinya..so gmbr ni ada 1 jer roti sbb 1 lagi MZ dh mkn dan 1 lagi MZ bagi zharfan. anyway, zharfan order chicken lasagna.

total cost kami breakfast kat CBTL pagi ni ialah RM60.60 --sekali sekala boleh laaa...

salam hari khamis merangkap hari gaji utk gomen staff :)

moga yg baik2 ajer utk kita semua insya Allah

Some bling2 stories

bling2 = jewellery

mcm dh lama tak buat entry psl bling2...MZ ada jer beli cuma tak de bajet nak beli yg besar2/berat2..lumrahnya, harga emas memang naik turun...lately trend tgh menurun...bila emas turun harga, duit pulak mcm tak de nak beli apa yg berkenan di hati...bertabahlah MZ.

ni latest yg MZ beli...5gm jer ni...

bila hati dh sukaaa...MZ dh pernah beli design yg sama sebelum ni...so kiranya dh ada 2!!

asalkan cantik di mata MZ :)

 bracelet ni brand Poh Kong, koleksi Anggun design melur nama dia...MZ beli kat Poh Kong official store (shopee)..rege ok utk bajet MZ (tak sampai RM3k sbb ada voucher shopee etc) --dan boleh byr guna spay later tapi max 3 kali byr jer utk 0% interest instalment

actually, ada jer kaum hawa yg tak suka jewelleries..cthnya my SIL (wife my adik)...dia tak suka bling2 esp yellow gold...ada koleksi white gold dan semua nya mak dia bg hadiah (mak dia jual emas laaaa)..my SIL ni rare sbb dia tak suka shopping jugak..kalau time raya, dia siap rasa nak nangis sbb stress kena shopping lama2/byk2 hahahah cute sungguh.

uolls ada ker species rare ie tak suka gold...untung laa sbb tak pyh pikir or tak pyh allocate bajet nak beli bling2 ;)

salam hari rabu uolls! hari ni MZ ada meeting board of examiners, so kena masuk opis jugakkk
