Final Concert ....:)

So much to tell ...don't know where to start ...

so.... we shall start by posting pictures first ..:)

Seats were reserved for Mommy, Dadi and Tok

because .............

I was one of the emcees!!!! The concert was held at MAS Academy.

More updates later ...Mommy is supposed to pick me up ..NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cucumber juice anyone?? ....

Aunty Elisa introduced this drink to us when we visited her in Medan ..It was really really hot outside ... and this drink was very cool and refreshing ... Who would have thought that I would actually DRINK CUCUMBER!!!!

It is made by adding fine strips of cucumber and the juice of the remaining cucumber into a glass. Sometimes Mommy adds cold water and ice to fill the glass.

The secret to the most refreshing taste is this .....

which Aunty Elisa brings every time she comes to KL .... I just wish it was sold in Malaysia so we don't have to trouble her ...... Anybody know where we can find melon/honey dew syrup anywhere? Mommy tried making using fresh honeydew .... nice but not quite there ..:)

Tok's five grandchildren ....

Kakak Iman, Aaqil, Haykal, Nia and me .... on a Friday evening at Mendut ...

I will turn 6 in a few weeks time and next year I will join the ranks of Kakak Iman and Haykal in primary school and I can't wait.

I love school .. I love my teachers ..I love my friends ... and of course ... I love my homework ...

I get very excited when Mrs Goh gives me many many pages of homework and get quite upset when she doesn't. I usually finish my homework within the first hour of reaching home or wherever Dadi decides to park us ...:)

Every Tuesday, I go to Piano class at Pianissimmo at Sunway Damansara. My teacher's name is Ms Ariel. She is a very sweet and cute lady. I sometimes find the pieces quite difficult to play but Mami helps me out. I also love doing my piano theory work ...

Dubai

Dubai was a short two day trip en route to Doha. We left KLIA on the 24th October at about 8.30pm, after a one hour flight delay. We flew Emirates.

Adik didn't fare very well on this flight because he had a bad cold that didn't go away. Poor thing, he suffered throughtout the whole journey. Dadi had to carry him almost throughout the whole flight. Luckily the crew were very friendly and accommodating. During the flight, they actually laid out a blanket for Adik to play in the galley. Adik was not comfortable in the cramped seats eventhough he had a seat all for himself. The takeoff and landing was the worst for Adik due to the cabin air pressure. BTW, the flights were extremely cheap ...RM1060 for a return flight to Doha as opposed to Rm3000+.

After almost 7 hours of flying, we finally landed at Dubai Airport. The bus transfer from the aircraft to the passenger terminal took a good 10 minutes or so. Uncle Hazem, Tok Dadak's friend waited for us at the airport. It was very nice of him to do so. We stayed at the Ibis Hotel, Dubai.

As we had only one and a half days to see Dubai, Dadi decided to hire a cab for 2 hours to drive us around. We visited the must sees ...

The then Burj Dubai which is now known as Burj Khalifah

Burj Al Arab

My parents did not do any shopping here because there was Doha to come. They were also trying to reduce the amount of baggage they were lugging around.

Uncle Redza and Auntie Kolin showed us the old Dubai by night after taking us out for a fantastic dinner.

Aaqil Aariz is one .....

Happy Birthday my dearest brother

You make me laugh
You make me cry (when you pull my hair)
You make me happy
You make me angry (when Mommy attends to you and says "Wait Miya")

I love it when you smile
I love it when you laugh
I love it when you make your muka busuk
I love it when you play with me ..

I love you, Ahmad Aaqil Aariz ...
