Last Saturday was Report Card Day at Nayli's school. The exam was actually held during the last week of term before the mid-term school holidays. Nayli did well thank goodness. Though we were not that happy with her Maths results because she made some careless mistakes that could have been avoided. I must give all the credit to her, because I basically provided her with materials, as in workbooks only, and the "occasional", "Nayli, do your homework! or "Nayli, do some exercises!!!". The rest were all her doing, really. Especially for Arabic! With Zaim, I really do not have the time nor energy to sit down next to her and coach her. Zaim's bed time is around 8 ish onwards, by the time he falls asleep, I would be in La La Land with him too. By the time I'm awake again to perform my Isya' prayers it would have already been Nayli's bed time. Hubby also helps to check her work and if she has any problems with her exercises. Poor girl, her mother would be able to spend more time with her, as Zaim grows older. How do others do it, I wonder?
Checking for her name, results and the rest of the class's results. Nayli is way down at the bottom of the list because of the "W" factor. Glad that is the exact opposite with her results.

Her seat in class. Hmm wonder why she is in between 2 boys, are we looking at Miss Chatterbox here?

Happy Kid... cause she is already dreaming of her new bike!*******************************
Sunday, after swimming lessons and Dim Sum breakfast we headed to Bangsar for a wedding. I was looking forward to this wedding because of the venue. It was held at a Showroom at BRDB in Bangsar. The wedding of a sculpture, whom hubby works with for one of his biz projects. His name is Abdul Multhalib Musa, his work is even featured outside the Prince Court Medical Centre, KL. This may be nothing compared to the fact that he finished at the top 100 in the sculpture competition in Beijing, held concurrently with the last year's Olympics.
Abdul Multhalib Musa, 32, one of Malaysia’s contemporary sculptors received recognition to be the first Malaysian to be chosen to contribute for his artwork, which is now displayed at the Beijing Olympic Park City.[KLIA Times magazine: interview 2008 by T. Vignesh. Published in KLIA Times, September 2008 issue, pp 3.]
The path leading to the main hall.
The reception area, notice the white rose petals strewn on the counter top. I was to shy to take a photo in front of the reception desk. I also had the Auto Flash light turned off, to avoid the flash burst.
Those 3 men, behind the counter, are preparing drinks. The desserts are also served there, more about this in a bit. Notice how I keep having these stacks of plate in my pictures. Some composition huh! No, these are not intentional, sorry.
Tucking in, letting hubby and kids eat first, while I let Zaim play around the lobby area. Zaim who has just started walking just loves to be let loose, and I love taking pictures of him and his antics!
How can I not, talk about a wedding without featuring the food served right? For a Malay wedding, the food served was rather unconventional yet surprisingly welcoming. It was Northern Indian dishes, right to the desserts.
On my plate was The Pilaf Rice, Dhal Curry, Spinach and Cheese and the Chicken in Tomato Gravy. Nice, if only they had Naan Bread too. Yumm!
There was also Sheesh Kebab, which I missed, so we had that only much later... while killing time waiting for the Bride and Groom to arrive.
Northern Indian Desserts, names I cannot remember.
Sculptures by the restroom area, wonder whether it's his work too? I dunno.
This is definitely his, since we saw relatives and friends taking pictures by this sculpture.
There were plenty of artwork on display around the hall.
Another sweet dessert, Gulab Jamun if I'm not mistaken. Really dead sweet. Tasted like a sweeter version of a Bread 'n Butter Pudding. Too sweet for me though.
Zaim back in his mobile throne.
Another sweet dessert called Jelabi, not to be mistaken as Jellabies!!!
They arrived. Check out what the bride is wearing. Very cool head gear, that I will never ever be able to pull off, and such nice kaftanish dress. The material and pattern is so lovely, don't you think?
Sorry the picture is not so clear. I forgot that the Auto Flash was still off!!! Too late to change it then.
This is the place, Bandaraya Development Berhad Showroom, just across BSC.
