Help Me !!

Oh no, HELP ME !!!!!

Tolonglah bagi advise utk manusia yg tak tau bersyukur ni heheheh !!

Ok, I currently owned this Yamaha P95 Digital Piano..

It's great, satisfying, modern looking, except....

It has no cover (saje buat alasan) and...

I have this problem...

Last Saturday, I've tried Florian's piano and...

It's just.... indescribably beautiful...

I mean, not only the look, but also the feel...

Oh i'm damn serious, his piano brand is Kawai, with price twice as much as the one I've owned and a better speaker, it delivers a wonderful melody.....

So, I kinda feel like getting a new piano, and sell the one I have now on e-bay..

and Lily was so supportive haha..

And thru observation, I'm quite certain that my piano worth more than half of it's original price, but still... I need to add a few hundred euros extra to have the one like Florian's huhu..

***sigh***

Oh help me !!

Please give me some advice so I won't waste my money on unnecessary thing..

And now, suddenly, I dream of this Casio Privia pulak, same features like Florian's piano...

So perfect...

I know I made a mistake, last time I didn't wanna spend too much on piano, but now after playing piano for a while, I've come to realize the importance of satisfaction in playing...

mmmmmm.... is it too much if I spend a lil bit more on a new piano and yet really is satisfying???

I know, it sounds a bit like 'membazir', but I've never dreamt for anything else before in my life, no dream car, no dream house, (oh ok, I have a dream house, but I don't mind if it's only a dream haha ), so, should I get a new piano ??

Meanwhile, I'm trying my best to be thankful with the existing piano, but, I can't forget the wonderful feeling I've felt while playing Florian's piano...

***sigh***

And listen to this, my piano is special, it has a function for duet, piano + choir..

So, this is me playing My Heart Will Go On with function piano + choir..

Sorry for the unfinished video, dun know what went wrong with my camera..

So, my piano is already lovely rite ??

Oh, help me !!

Another Great Saturday :)

Again, another date with Victor, Lily and Florian last Saturday :)

This time, they took us to lunch in a huge Restaurant here in Kaiserslautern..

mmmm, once before they took us to the Zoo, they've invited us to a bbq at their place, and also invited us to celebrate Florian's birthday party which we couldn't make it, almost every Friday after karate's finished, they would invite hubby and Afeef over to their place where they served dinner etc etc.., they adored everything we've shown or given them, and they showed interest and appreciation in every invitation and also food that we've served them...

Overall, I would say that, they've been so infinitely kind to us, they've done and helped us a lot, in many things and events..

I don't think we could ever repay them, but the most amazing thing is, I knew it by heart that they don't expect anything in return, not even the least...

Their kindness were utterly beyond words for me to express...

I mean, take this as an example, they took the trouble to drive two cars just to pick us all up, whereas they could just told us to meet them at the Restaurant straight away because the Restaurant was just nearby, we could even walk there, but the've just wanted too, wanted to do and give the best.. isn't that sweet??

And not just that, they've paid for everything and even planned for more activities together, like skiing, go to Factory outlet together, etc etc...

The most wonderful thing is to realize that they didn't do all these in return of a good favor from us, but simply because they'd loved to do it... I don't know how to say it, like I said, it's beyond words !!!!

They are just kind people, kind at heart, kind in act and in everything !!

They are just great, and I love being with them !!

So, this is inside the Restaurant.

Look at all the foods :)

This is one of the most spacious restaurant we've ever been to in Deutschland :)

And the variety of foods were massive, however, we had to be very careful for we're afraid of anything non halal..

So, to be safe, all fried food were our choices, like fries, fried squid, fried prawn etc etc heheh..

A candid :)

These two, as always, can't get their hands off each other :)

Nowadays, whenever they meet up, all they do is...

Karate, karate, karate...

I hope they'll make it together for the change of belt :)

Nice :)

There's a small pond in the Restaurant too, with 'Koi fish' in it.

Oh my, Aleena loved it sooooo much :)

Afterwards, they took us to their home, where Lily served her special Cheesecake which she'd baked herself, and it tasted super yummy !!

I've even got a neatly written recipe from her !! Hahaha.. so nice of her :)

Seriously, if you ask me where to get a nice cheesecake in Deutschland, I would suggest Lily's cheesecake hehehe, I really loved it, and I have the recipe too !! yahoooo !!

The kids were busy playing :)

And Fatini with her drawing..

I bet you all know what she'd drawn there on the board :)

Eh ???

And lastly.......

A gift from Lily... hehe..

What's inside ??

Biarlah rahsia hehehe...

Ok ok, how bout a little peep inside..

Anyway, it was by far one of the best Saturday ever, had a great time together, we've chatted one issue after another until it's almost dark that Victor took us all home, we had a great laugh, Lily showed me her wedding album, we showed them our photos in Malaysia through FB, and Lily has recently enrolled herself in English course.

I guess, I'm her motivation to learn English and she is my motivation to learn Deutsch and we helped each other, and when we talked, we tried our best to explain everything, she'd open her dictionary and I would open mine, funny huh ?? hahaha,

Nevertheless, even though we speak different languages, and even though it's hard to sometimes understand what she was saying, and to explain whatever I wanna explain took so much efforts, we could still sit together, had a laugh together, hugged each other, cared for each other, appreciating, giving and accepting, it's a great feeling...

I feel like... we are soooo close at heart :)

There were times, whenever I think of their kindness, that I silently make a prayer for them, may God grant them all the wonderful things in life :)

mmmmm.. like I said once before, in a place where we have no family and friends, they make us feel like, We belong...

:)

My first project :)

My first real project hehe..

It took me two days to complete the whole thing.. not bad for a beginner like me :)

This one goes in the dining area...

mmmm... next project, is pink and purple tulips...

My very own painting is on the wall !!

It's not anything special or unique, but... it's my very own, and it feels great !!!

And thanx to Mr. Hubby again for his full support (as always :) ), he bought two huge drawing boards for me hehe, so sweet :)

Ok, till later, Salam...

:)

Full House :)

I love this song so much....

Hope you like it too...

Housewife's heaven...

A few years ago, I would strived to make sure that I'd have my own career, I couldn't imagined myself staying at home for the rest of my life...

For me, life at home was not a life at all...

I've gone through almost 2/3 of this marriage with me busy completing a bachelor degree in IIUM, a year ++ as a full time housewife in Malaysia and 2 years as a full time housewife here in Deutschland..

In that 1 year in Malaysia as a housewife, I had many plans for myself, to further studies, to get a job, to start my own business etc etc..

I just couldn't stand it, couldn't bear life as a housewife.. I found it utterly... boring...

But in these 2 years of life as housewife in Deutschland, I have not even felt the slightest boredom, I have no longer wished a life as a career woman, In fact, I don't want any other kind of life but, the one that I have now !!!

I don't know if this feeling is only temporary or not, because being a housewife in Deutschland is very highly acknowledged, and appreciated..

I got scolded once by my Deutsch teacher for saying,

"I have no profession, I'm a housewife.."

And she got all emotional and said,

"Housewife is a profession!! you cook, clean, take care of your kids, bla bla bla... maybe in M'sia it's not a profession, but here in Deutschland it is, bla bla... "

hehehe

So I guess, I've already have a profession and it's the best !!

Count my word on that, and recently, I've discovered something from one of the stores here, a painting boards... lots and lots of them, with different sizes...

Oh my, suddenly, the desire to paint again overwhelmed me heheh..

So I started last week, my 1st trial, I bought a small board 1st, in case in turned out disastrous :D

But it didn't end up disastrously, fortunately enough for me hehe..

I tried a simple and kiddy kind of drawing 1st with Fatini nearby, watching me closely, scrutinizing details of my drawing, and repeated the same compliment over and over again,

"Wow... cantik nya mama lukis !!"

For a 4 year old, cantik sgt la painting ni, but.... hubby was also impressed???!!!!

Aiyo, wait till he sees my real paintings... haha !! :D

Just kidding, i'm not that good actually, but hubby said there's part of me that has never been exposed, or that part of me that he never knew about?? hehe

Maybe he's right, there's so much desires in me, to paint, to play music, to decorate, to come up with something different, but none of it was possible in Malaysia, the exposure was just not there..

But here, everything seems possible and is made possible by existing opportunity..

I'm not so good at any of it, but I can certainly make something simple looks attractive.. but again, it lies in the eyes of the beholder..

Some people might find it not even the least attractive hehe..

For example, I found this from a different stores, and combining it...

Tadaaaaa....

Not bad huh ??

Or, this...

And this...

Just a lil bit of imagination, and there you go...

By the way, the whole house is like 'kedai bunga' already hehe..

So, what a great life a housewife can have, you have lots of time to start your hobby, to do whatever you desire, as for me, I have so many things to do in one day that time never seems enough for me...

I have lots of time to read, currently, i'm on this interesting Mary Higgins novel...

And, I have lots of time to cook too..

Not just any cook, I can try any new recipes any time I want !!

This one is called Irischer Auflauf, obtained from Nuraliza's blog, sedap tau, I suka !!

Later I'll post an entry bout this recipe :)

And also, I have lots of time to play piano, to learn Deutsch, to start painting, to spend times with the kids which is priceless, to help Afeef with his homework, to go out and have fun anytime I want, and most importantly, I have lots of time for ibadah, isn't that cool ??

Isn't housewife the best profession ??

The answer is YES to me, and it's heaven on earth, and I know, later in Malaysia, things might be different, everything might not be as sweet as it is now, but...

Life can be interesting anywhere, everywhere right??

With God's will, everything is possible..

And, the truth is always there, God has plans for all of us, it might not be something we like or what we wanted in the beginning, but turned out to be a bed of roses, and with a lil bit of realization and a positive thinking, the truth will hit you.....

That life, wherever you live it, is full of blessings, in it's very own way..

:)
