Hazman & Hazim 2nd Birthday Party || Kajang

Dapat the invitation dah sebulan dah.. memang dah cakap dengan Adam that we'll be going to a birthday party.. Rozi pon dah bagitau that  ada macam-macam activity.. rugi nih kalau tak pegi..

Pergi party tu with Tini since balik nanti Dude akan fetch.. Sampai kat rumah Rozi the party already starter and Clown tengah seronok-seronok buat show.. tapi Adam being him memang tak heran lah.. Even Tini's DN and Raes pon tak join.. the twins pon relax je tak join the show.. lagi seronok layan tetamu-tetamu yang baru sampai..

Towards the end of the show, the clown ajak everybody to gather.. nak nyanyi the birthday song! Actually the birthday party for Rozi's twins, Hazman and Hazim and her niece.. so ada 2 kek.. tapi Adam sikit pon tak nak.. he said "its not chocolate cake!" memilih la pulak.. The twins enjoying themselves all through the cake cutting and candle blowing moment.. even flashing their cheeky smile.. sangat cumels ok? only after 2 years baru boleh tell them apart.. Hazman muka more like Rozi while Hazim pulak more like the father.. and masa tu baru lah nak kenal..

After that kitorang pon melantak..while borak-borak and catching up DN and Adam buat sand art.. Gyah volunteer nak babysit.. ehehehe.. end up gyah yang kene buat all the artsy stuff.. kids dah berlari-lari at the bouncing castle.. ada yang suggest to share and open up a nursery.. tapi semua nak jadi ahli kongsi tidur je.. sapa yang nak buat keje pon taktau.. heh..

Tapi seriously seronok dapat meet up macam ni.. anak-anak pon tak buat perangai nak balik sebab they are enjoying themselves.. itupon baru half of us yang ada..

Thank you Rozi for the invite! Happy 2nd Birthday Hazman & Hazim!

p/s : they are my bestfriends from our ASASI days in MARA College Banting.. there were ELEVEN of us.. hope to gather everyone one fine day..

Together We Can Change The World

This is the song that the kids of BBIM sang at the end of their annual concert..

(by : Mark Shepard)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

I believe it’s not too late

Together we can change the world

Lay the puzzle pieces out

Find out what it’s all about

Together we can change the world

Can’t do it by myself

So I’m asking for your help

Together we can change the world

Sail past where it’s been charted

Roll your sleeves up, let’s get started

Together we can change the world

Together we can change the world

With our hands and with our hearts

We can dare to make a start

Together we can change the world

What if we spoke with one voice,

Knowing that we have a choice?

Together we can change the world

Change your mind and change your life

Set aside the fear and strife

Together we can change the world

When we open up our eyes

Then we start to realize

Together we can change the world

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

I believe it’s not too late

Together we can change the world

Brainy Bunch Islamic Montessori Graduation and Year End Concert 2013

Setelah setahun Adam attend Brainy Bunch maka sampailah hari final year concert.. we were given heads up 2 months or so before the real date.. so every other engagement would be put to 2nd priority.. this must be the first.. dan wedding of the year in my family pon have to be put the least priority.. walaupon dah plan baju apa nak pakai since after the engagement.. huhuhuhu.. and another reception in Perak of a goof friend of Dude..

Before the day, we had to prepare Adam with a black shoe and a white kopiah.. and we paid the school for a white jubah.. easy.. rather than searching high and low for a kid's jubah.. 

I was so excited sebab months before the concert, Adam dah start memorizing poems to be performed as a choral speaking.. he even practice at home with actions.. and I realised that he memorises well..

Since Adam's branch was put on the final slot in the evening, we decided to stay in on that day.. and at 5 o'clock we made our way to PICC.. Adam was already with his red costume.. 

by the time we reached PICC it was already 6 o'clock and the concert was supposed to start at 6 o'clock.. and Adam tak sabar-sabar to wear his white jubah on top of his red costume because he saw some of the kids with their jubah and kopiah walking passed him..risau sebab he's the odd one there..

Sampai-sampai teros register and he was brought in by the teacher.. ouhh.. by the way.. Sara is also there.. and she's cranky because she was asleep on the way there.. so we just left my sister and BIL to pujuk Sara to join in sebab dah pakai cantik-cantik.. rugi kalau tak join..

Masuk-masuk, the concert was almost starting.. and the sight of hundred of small children in white jubah and white kopiah and tudung was truly fascinating.. I almost cried.. such calm and soothing..

And the concert starts with Negaraku, Wilayah song and then Asmaul Husna.. followed by Al-Fatihah and translation.. and then they recite couple of Surah and translation..

The first performance was by playhouse children.. performing fashion show.. this is were Sara is supposed to perform.. She is such a performer! Tak nampak langsong tanda-tanda cranky tadi.. and she is the only one who is dancing to the beat.. 

After a couple of other performance by other branches, we break for Maghrib prayer.. around 30 minutes break.. then continue with a couple of performance more.. then came Adam's branch performance..

I move to the front for a better view.. too bad Adam was put behind a line of girls.. quite tall girls I must say.. so I couldn't see him much.. but I was very proud of the kids.. they were reciting the poem complete with actions with not even a hiccup.. and after they finish their 11 verses of poems, the hall clapped so loud.. that I for a little while am proud of my son..

We though of going home after that.. only to be informed that they have another performance.. so we wait.. and the final performance are of the whole brainy bunch branch and their board of directors singing Together, We Can Change The World.. I truly am moved by the song..

After the last song, they break for preparation for the graduation ceremony.. and that was our cue to go home.. I fetched Adam from his teacher since he is not graduating yet.. only the 6 year olds will graduate.. and that was it.. Adam final concert.. ouhh. we had to leave early because tomorrow is a working day.. and it's almost 9 o'clock at night..

Adam was really happy and kept on repeating stories of him performing.. he even watch the video of the performace all over again.. repeating in on and on and on and on..
