Assalamualaikum semua...hari ni semuanya ok ke? Banyak keje? Biasa la tuh....jangan tension-tension, senyum sokmo ye...

Nak story ape lak hari ni ye...ooo ye kat ofis ni memang perasan habis la staf-staf lelaki yang asyik terbabas masuk lewat ke ofis...Tapi saya faham. Sebabnya demam EURO 2012 tuh..

Saya memang tidak la minat sangat bola sepak ni, tapi boleh la teman-teman husband tengok...Tapi kalau tengok dengan dia, nanti dia tension.

Sebab? Sebabnya saya tengok tapi tak penah paham-paham...jadi mata tengok, mulut asyik tanya husband. Bila asyik tanya POT PET POT PET, husband pun jap tengok saya, jap tengok TV, jap tengok saya ...tiba-tiba GOLLLLL!!! tak frust ke kawan huhuhu...
