3 years to 2020

fancy ways of saying its 2017! happy new year. not too late although its already february. i have to blog about how crazy busy we were in the early month of the year. so that when its all end, i get to read it and smile at our silliness of saying the word crazy busy. my husband went out so early and came home quite late. he is definitely pushing himself to get it all done by end year. that left me to handle the kids. sent irfan to school is my additional job and phew some days he really get on my nerve, that boy. but at least i dont get to think about why the graph came out weird. so i pity my husband :p

also, because of the super critical phase that we are in now, we cant afford to plan any vacations. we didnt go anywhere this winter. luckily my brother in law and family will come this spring so i get to persuade my husband to go on a short trip in cornwall ( all is booked so yay!). i got plan for summer but that also had to KIV (cry!). i didnt plan for autumm and the next winter because i dont want to feel bad about myself lol. so, i dont want to make my life so dull with no-vacation -- because, lets face it, we are in london. how dull can it be? i told myself, okay, if i cant go on a vacation every season, lets make the full use of london. i listed out some places (free) and make plans on certain weekends & school holiday / half term break. i hope i still find some hidden gems spots around london that can last through the year. 

after our vacation to aviemore last winter, bracing ourself in 13 hour train journey and cold - just to have that 1 day playing with snow on top of ski mountain, i almost said - i ticked off the winter list. as a someone who comes from hot and humid country i thought winter is all about snow. if it aint snowing, it is not winter! betul kan? too bad i live in the part of the country where winter means frosty and foggy morning. and even when its snowing, it just a sleet. booo london. but idont want to just play with snows, i want to ice skate on frozen lake, see frozen waterfall, build a snowman as tall as me and make an igloo (or maybe that's too much), ride a reindeer or husky dogs or snowmobile! and so my winterlist gets on and on. although i dont know if we will get another winter anymore.

izyan's going to school this september. although it is 7-8 months away but i cnt help feeling overwhelmed - sad and happy. she is quite attached to me (or i am quite attached to her) so having to stay at home without her would definitely make a differrent. but on the hand, i get to relax and not thinking of how to entertain her all day or maybe i can go out for lunch with husband. we never been out for a date let alone lunch/dinner date since we got irfan. well, its 7-8 months away..... let see.
