FRISO GUT DAYS at ONE UTAMA – by Oman

.

Hello everyone! This is Oman. Ahem!

Momma doesn’t always THIS sporting to allow me to write here, but since there is a super important thing I would like to share with all of you, then she said yes. :D

Last weekend, I followed my dadda and momma to One Utama Shopping Center. Momma told me that we went there not for shopping but we gonna do something very unique.

It’s FRISO Growing up Together (GUT) Days Event!

View from the above.

Now, let’s follow our journey, friends! :)

First, we had to register ourselves at the registration counter. It was very fast and easy. Upon completion, we were handed with a packet of FRISO Gold 3 sample and also 10 ringgit voucher for FRISO Gold product purchasing.

Cool right? =D


Here the sample sachet of Friso Gold 3 for me!

As you can see from the first photo above, there’s a huge tunnel set up, where my momma and I had played very nice interactive games inside it.

I was in the queue and so ready to play!

What is interesting about these games is the technology behind it. It looks simple but it has encouraged my momma and me to interact, help each other to form a very good team. You and your parents should really experience this. Like me, I am sure you gonna love the games because they are full of colors with cute animations too.

The Lilypad Hop.

It really felt like I was going on a pond adventure with my momma. I hopped on the Lilypad and I could see colorful fishes swimming happily surrounded us. I even tried to catch them with my hands. They looked real! :)

The next game I played with my momma was 'Fly, Butterfly, and Fly’. There were really a lot of flying butterflies for us to touch them as fast as we could. I scored 52! I am sure you guys can do better!!

You should know that there is also virtual painting booth which is super interesting. For your information, this had been my favorite activity among all.

Why is that?

There’s a camera to snap the photo of our family.

My Dadda supposed to be in the photo but he’s too busy with the click click and click click. That’s completely normal :P.

We were then been given with some selections of virtual background and colors so that we could paint whatever we want via the touch screen.

Emmmm.. what do i paint ya??

OK. I know!

R and..

...O M A N.

R O M A N.
Hey that’s my name!!
Yes i could write my own name. :)

To add the amusingness of this virtual photo booth, it really creates our very individual photo. It would be printed out for us to take it home along.

Tadaa!!
We plan to frame it afterwards.

Awsome!!

But that’s not just about it.

During this event, we can also enjoy the activities at the craft stations where we could customize and design our very own T-Shirt, badges, toys and hanging mobiles with our parents, like our friend and his mother below,

All this for FREE!!

To the parents who need to know more about FRISO products, or would like to purchase them, attending this event will be a good platform to know more, and perhaps to have a face to face Q&A session with the FRISO team.

To all friends, aunties and uncles out there, the next sessions of FRISO Growing Up Together (GUT) Days event will be at;

Sunway Pyramid - 9 to 11 March 2012
AEON Bukit Indah – 13 to 18 March 2012
Queensbay Mall – 5 to 8 April 2012

DON'T MISS IT!!

Before I end this, I would like all of you to know that I truly enjoyed the bonding experience between myself, my momma and Dadda during this whole activities conducted at FRISO GUT Days event. It has been a week since I attended it at One Utama, we are still talking about it every day!

So, you are coming, right?
=D


Xoxo,
Oman

TO A FASHION SHOW

.
I am invited to a fashion show by BDA/ MIFW 2011!!

Yes, I'm super excited!! :)
Selama ni, i only heard their names, adore their designs in the magazine, but tonight, is difference!! (mana tau dapat bertentang mata kan..paling best dapat lihat sendiri their latest collections..awww..)

The main reason of this excitation is, one of my friend, Nelissa Hilman is going to debut her first runway collaboration / collection. I am so proud of her!! Her passion and storyline in shoe-making is really really inspiring. I believe Nelissa Hilman Fine Shoes will have a bright future locally and internationally. Amin! :)

But..

At the same time, I feel bit worried on what i'm gonna wear for this show. So far, i only attended something like this once. It was last year for MBMJ 1oth years anniversary party.

Simply me

Full house!

Liyana Jasmay and Juliana evans were there.
They're superbly gorgeous! :)

Terasa comot sungguh i berdiri di sebelahnya.

Suami Nicole Richie

I met with CuteCarry.
Sangat friendly!! :)

This is Ika. Kalau pergi MBMJ cari dia. She's good! :)


The show's about to start.

Presenting the models..

After the show finished

Bolehla kan??. :P

Well, i found 10 top useful tips for what to wear to a fashion show. You need to read them all sebab memang best. Lawak pun yer!! :) I adopt it from here.

The writer says;

Keep it casual. You’re not trying to compete with the ladies up on the runway, so don’t feel you have to wear an outfit worthy of a thousand camera flashes.

Get thee a tailor. Your best kept secret for looking like a million bucks should be a tailor who knows your figure and your wardrobe. Don’t just grab something off the rack and assume it will look amazing. Make sure there aren’t weird pocket bulges or sleeves that are too long before you get to the show.

Save your money. Unless you are a super celebrity with an eight figure salary, there is no reason you should drop an entire month’s rent on a new outfit for the show. Sure – buy a beautiful investment piece that stands out and is re-wearable. But don’t go overboard on designer wear just for this one show.

“I wear my sunglasses…” Put on your best diva pout and wear your big ol’ sunglasses while you’re cabbing it to the show. But…you are not of such elite status that those shades should stay on your face during the duration of the event. Pull them off, let those peepers see everything and remember that those who are trying to stay incognito are just cheating themselves anyway…those fashion shows are always dim as it is!

These shoes were made for sitting. Most of the time, I’m all for functional over fabulous. But honey this is no time for ballet flats. Put those comfy shoes away and realize this is one of the only times your most decadent, beautiful shoes will have a reason to exist besides being beautiful in your closet.

Your best accessory. If you’re new to the fashion scene, then you probably won’t have gobs of people to commiserate with and chat up during the dull points of the show. Bring an equally fabulous and fashionable friend who you can whisper to when a model almost falls down or a particularly heinous creation passes your eye. I bring my Kidd tonight. Hehe.

It’s in the bag. Remember when I said don’t go designer? I didn’t mean your handbag. This is one area where you shouldn’t skimp out with a pleather replica of a popular design. Buy (or borrow) the real thing and wear it with pride.
Basic black is oh so boring. Don’t cheat yourself and fall back on a basic black cocktail dress. All the uber fashionistas around you will see right through this coy “conservative” play. A pop of color never hurt anyone – and you will certainly appreciate the extra boost in confidence once you’re surrounded by the chic elite.

I said sophisticated, not slutty. Put the girls away, pull down that skirt and have some decency. This is not the time to leave all the goods oLinkn the table…you want to exude elegance, not ‘easy’. Anything that might be appropriate for a frat party is not okay for a fashion show.

and the most best part is.... Who are you again? Remember…you’re you. Most people are going to be so focused on snagging a celebrity sighting or their own outfit that they aren’t going to even notice what you’re wearing. Stay calm, have confidence and enjoy yourself instead of worrying so much about stray threads and whether or not your shoes are from last year’s collection.

When i read this, i smiled. It's so true, so why i need to worry much?? ( padahal .. Mel je yang tahu).. hahahaha..

And finally for tonight, i come out with these combination;

Can't wait to put on that shoes. *wink*

Hope they're gonna be ok.
My opinion, It is always better far to be under-dressed than over-dressed. Kan?

OK. I got to go now. Those who're going to the same show tonight, I'll see you there ya! :)

p/s: Dah la tengah Cerry Berry ni. Cepatla baik! Amin.

OMAN AND NATURE

On the first weekend of Ramadhan month this year, three of us went back to my parents' crib in Sitiawan. Berpuasa dan berbuka bersama-sama abah, mama and adik-adikku. Happy!!

The day before, which was Friday, we had our Iftar with Armi's family. Nenek prepared nasi lemak for us. Tell you sambal ikan bilis nenek memang total!! :)

We made the moved from Sungai Long on Saturday not early morning. :P

My anak bujang was getting ready to meet his Tukbah, Opah, mamaLang, mamaChu, & AbahChik

and then playing with the mini football while waiting for his parents to get ready

Little man was so sleepy right after Dadda started the engine of the car. He was cranky with his eyes half-closed. Owh he's really a big boy now that he refused to sleep on my lap anymore. Kalau tidur, Oman x suka sempit-sempit. Dahla badan dia panjangkan, lasak pulak tu, suka pusing sana pusing sini, so, sleeping on me is not really comfortable to him. Sigh... should i get him a baby seat? I saw many kids look very comfortable sleeping in baby seat especially when traveling at long distance.

Nice! He managed to get his soundly sleep after i placed his comforter and pillow at Nabira's 2nd row seat. Maka bermaharajalelalah Oman tido di situ :P
(but of course, we prayed a lot for his safety during his sleep. Everytime Dadda pressed the break, i'd hold his leg. Takut jugakkan kalau teremergency break. Nauzubillah)

Kui Kui Kui.. siap ade air liur basi lagi, you. Oman jangan marah momma ok. Kenangan nih! hihi.

The next hour, Oman woke up from his sleep and sat silently at the back. It took seconds for him to realize that he was actually sitting alone there. Apelagi, terus melompat nak duduk depan with momma.

Gambar besar itu adalah muka suci Oman selepas bangun dari tidur. Sumpah muka stone. :p

Along the way, Oman kept singing and counting 1,2 3 with us. Owh he's now very very talkative. Alhamdulillah, Oman easily captured new vocab we thought him especially from songs. Ulang banyak kali, and ask him to fill in the blank (last sukukata in every row), Insya Allah, he could remember the sukukata walaupun pelat. Cute!

Tara!!!! Oman pokok kelapak's now back!! :)


You could enjoy to watch this too. "When Oman Count".

We reached our destination at 3.00pm like that. As expected, Tukbah and Opah dah panjang leher waited for their beloved mushuk mushuk grandson. Oman was excited too. Mulut munggil dia tu x abih-abih panggil "Tukbaaak".

To spend quality times with my precious family, i was totally looking for it. Kalau dah sebulan x jumpa them, mulala Armi perli; "Homesick la tu". :P because my level of sensitivity akan naik satu anak tangga lagi. Hehe.

Even two days were actually not enough, but i really appreciate every single second being with them. Of course paling best dapat makan masakan mama. We had special Iftar dish such as ayam masak lemak cili api, sambal udang petai, deep fried Senangin and kuih cuk keria (kueh gelang) on Saturday, and on Sunday, mama prepared cempedak goreng, Sup ikan tanda, sambal sotong (Mama Lang Oman yang masak.. hebat kamu lang:)) and masak tempoyak cuk ubi. Not to be left, my hubby's favorite, Ikan masin bulu ayam. (Ntah betul ntah tidak nama ni).

Jangan x tau, Armi sangat suka this ikan masin and sambal belacan tau. Punyala dulu masa zaman mula-mula couple, i thought he like the very city boy who eat only western food, mengong betul i.. haha. To my surprise, he passed the test that my mom set to him on the first time he visited my family back in Aidilfitri 8 years ago. My mama saje jer letak ulam pegaga as one of the dish on that day. Saje nak tengok he would touch it or not. Armi ate them like "sungguh enak dimakan begitu saja".. hahahaha.. then after that my mom terus fall in love with him. Boley x? saspek sungguh! :)

Ok Ok.. back to Oman. Encik kecik tu punyala seronok cause ramai yang layan kan. Kejap kang mamalang layan, kejap kang abah chik, pastu mama chu.. Opah and Tukbah mmg toksah cakapla.. hihi. there were 4 things we noticed Oman really obsessed at;

i. Bicycle (dia belai-belai beskal ni tau)
ii. Mini air pancut Opah (Uish ikut hati dia, dia nak mandi dalam tu)
iii. Vom VOm tuk Bah (berani tengok je, naik takut. Haha)
iii. Aabat. (Pantang tengok sapa-sapa Aabat, dia pun nak join sekali. Hambek!)

Sekali sekala balik kampung halaman, i absolutely love to intro Oman to kampung nature, which is very hard to do it in the city. What he seen on TV is not going to be the same with what he sees with his own eyes. Kan?

So, on the Sunday morning, i brought Oman to visit his TukBah who was gardening at the back of the house. See that tree in front of my abah?.. taux tu pokok ape? pokok APPLE you!! i was like asking my dad 3 times sebab x caya. Boleh ke hidup epal kat panas terik.. so my abah explained that the chances are there and what he was working on was to build a sort of shelter to reduce sun exposure. Kalaulah menjadi, wah bangga anakmu, bah. Insya Allah :)

OK, where was Dadda? hihi.. Dadda had to excuse all the activities because he was concentrating on editing photos that we took during MMU convo weeks before. Go dadda go!

Since my siblings and i were kids, it has been a routine that everytime we goes back to our hometown, we must also visit our uncle's house which is located only 500m away. Our families are so attached together. Tok Ude and Opah de Oman ni mempunyai anak-anak lelaki gagah yang sangat hebat dalam arena penternakan binatang. Ternak kat belakang rumah pulak tu.

Seronok kalau intro kat Oman nih.

MUka Oman tengah kagum and patiently waiting to meet..

....this little kambing. Oman called her, "jot" (goat).

Tell you, Jot is a very active baby goat tau! Dia siap performed stunt lagi depan Oman. Encik Oman tu pulak berani-berani takut. When Jot got closer to him, he immediately ran away. So funny!

Oh by the way, Jot is not alone there. Since she was just born few weeks before, he's being separated with her mother in that little barn from other goats which living in another barn that bigger in size. Bukan apa, nanti Jot kene buli ke ngoratke dengan abang-abang dewasa ke kan, so, kene bagi dia akil baligh dulu. Lagipun her mother still breastfeed her. :)

Here where the other goats are living. There are 6 of them if i calculated correctly.

Other than Jot and her family members, there are birds and chicken too. Oman was so excited that he could see the 'bik' and 'titen' very very close. There's one time he ambushed anak-anak ayam yang tengah kusyuk makan dedak. Eeee seriau ok.. sebab ibu ayam ni kan macam garang sikit, very protective to her kids.. buatnya di kejarnyer and patuk Oman. Adoi.. mentang-mentangla kamu x puase ye Oman, semput momma taww.

This visit was one of our happiest moment di kampung. This time we're sweating so much and sun burnt a little :P

Xperla kene gigit nyamuk sikit kan Oman.. (dalam hati: siap kau nyamuk!!! kau gigit anak aku yer!! Nanti aku sembur sedara mara kau kat KL dengan Ridsect tau. Biase dia!!)

We're moving back to KL after Iftar on Sunday. Puas hati sungguh dapat balik berbuka my family tawwwww... :)

Captured on Sunday morning kat umah Tukbah. See! See!.. lasak sungguh! :)

Nila Mamalang, Opah and Tukbah Oman. Si comel sorang lagi tu is Syu's son. Photo was taken during our balik kampung time in last February.
