Happy Birthday Ain. si ain ni tadi mira bagi la die sms Selamat Hari Raya, lepas tu die reply, "Selamat Hari Raya, ingat tak hari ni hari ape!!!" and i know it.. Mira terlupe.. So kepada semua housemate-housemate ku yang terlupe hari ni Birthday Ain, baik cepat, nanti minah ni merajuk lak.

Ok, Ain ni mira punye roomate mase mule-mule masuk utp dulu. dulu kiterang satu bilik ade empat orang, mira, ifa, najah and ain. Kalau compare dengan kiterang bertige, ain ni la yang paling senyap sekali. Dulu,kalau nak tau, cakap pun slow habis, pulak tu pemalu die, mak aii.. sampai kan kalau pi kopetro tu, nak tanye barang pun mintak tolong kiterang tanyakan. tulah nak tunjuk betape pemalu nyer makcik ni.

Tapi lame kelamaan, dah hilang dah die nyer pemalu. first time bile kiterang semua dengar die cakap "aku sepak kang" semua orang macam tak percaye, betul ke dari mulut makcik ni.. sikit demi sikit, baru laa die dah tak macam ain kiterang kenal mase januari 2000 tu dah, dah makin advance minah ni.

Anyway, im glad to have u as my friend. Still remember mase mira sakit kaki yang teruk tu, ain la tolong teman kan pi hospital ipoh. Tapi sakit2 mira tu, ingat tak kite due sempat lagi pi tengok wayang dulu sebelum balik utp. hehe.

Actually, kalau nak tau, ain ni adik angkat em, die jadik adik angkat dulu, before mira jumpe em :).. oklaa ain, all the best, any update about u and Cicak or ape2 :D jangan lupe habaq mai noo..

Ni je hadiah leh kasik :p

Start dari semalam, setiap hari mira nak posting mira sekali dengan kad raya. Rasa bersalah lak tahun ni, tak bagi-bagi lagi kad raya, i will i will, insyaAllah on the way. I try my best.

Hari ni pi ofis, mm bosring habis, betul la kate hana, jasad je kat ofis, tapi fikiran dah ke tempat lain, dah la hari ni ramai yang cuti + curi tulang. i tak join laa sebab pagi tadi pun i lambat datang office, tau-tau je jam dah tunjuk pukul 8.55am. Apalagi kelam kabut la siap datang ofis, nasib baik hari ni jalan clear-seclearnyer. Vivian pulakkate first time, jalan tun razak and jalan ampang tak jam langsung. Datang dari rumah mak die dari jalan loke yew cume 10 minutes je dah sampai ampang. Amazing!!

Hari ni, duduk ofis pun tak de mood nak buat keje, banyak mase borak-borak and on the net. sorry meen, separuh jalan je aku cakap ngan ko sebab ade orang gune komputer tu berjam-jam.

Mira amik cuti sampai next kamis, rasenye tahun ni balik kampung dekat perak, ade aqiqah cousin yang kecik. Tapi still tak sure raye ke berape, tapi i think for sure raye pertama im home,so sesape yang nak datang rumah, silakan untuk hari raya pertama. Tapi as usual, sape yang kenal mira, derang dah tau dah, rumah mira mane ade open house sebab tetiap hari memang dah open house.

Tetamu memang tak putus-putus datang, alhamdulillah orang kate kalau banyak tetamu datang berkat tuan rumah. Amin.. Rumah mira ade moyang tinggal sekali, banyak la saudara mara jauh dekat, sepupu, tiga empat pupu datang nak tengok moyang. Mira panggil moyang, nenek.

Mama pulak jenis yang tak kisah tetamu datang, lagi die suke adalah. Kadang-kadang orang balik pukul 2 pagi, esok keje, tapi mama relaks je. Kalau mira, perghh penat woo esok nye. Satu lagi salute dengan mama, setiap kali orang datang, die takkan jamu kuih raye je, mesti ade heavy food. Kiterang tak penah biarkan orang balik dari rumah kiterang dengan perut kosong unless anak die kene entertain :D.

Mira banyak belajar dari situla, kalau kite suke layan tetamu, tetamu pun suke datang rumah kite. Penat tapi berkat, penat tapi pahala dapat. Kadang-kadang tu bukan kate ape la, kite datang rumah orang, derang macam nak tak nak layan je, ishh kite pun jadik uncomfortable.

So, kesimpulannya, sape-sape yang nak datang rumah mira, silakan, tak payah tunggu open house baru nak datang sebab mira memang tak buat open house pun. Tapi kene inform dulu laa, takut mira tak de ke ape. Kepada kawan-kawan yang dekat oversea tu, especially dedicated to Shaf, Yan, Hanis, Emmachan, Teh Zawani, nadimah (Maaf kalau ade name yang tertinggal) Derang ni semua, mira nyer regular reader :) thanks girls.. take care and have a nice hari raya. Sorry tak leh nak bungkuskan lemang, rendang, ketupat, sate, kuih raya (ehehe-terliur tak??)

Selamat Hari Raya

Hari ni bangun pagi, sekali lagi terima message dari cik abang sorang, pagi2 lagi die dah message kate nak datang rumah, nak hantar lauk. Adat orang Melaka, kalau nak raye, orang laki kene hantar lauk dekat rumah orang perempuan, mira lak amik kesempatan nak hantar kuih raye kat Melaka. Nasib baik mase die message tu mira dah bangun tapi tak mandi lagi laa.

Sekejap je die datang, nak kene cepat, die takut jam sebab kerete not in a good condition. So sebelum balik tu sempat laa, mintak maaf :D.. Rasa kelakar kan bang mase tu :p Last raye jadik tunang orang ni... InsyaAllah..

Then, lepas Dearie balik, ape lagi mira bangun tido, so bile bangun je, makcik kat rumah dah sepuluh kali dah mintak beli kasut raye die, terpakselah bawak die pi Giant cari kasut raye. Ramai sangat orang kat Giant, nak jalan pun tak leh, nasib baik dapat parking best, betul-betul depan entrance Giant. Mira sempatlaa capai beli seluar, then pergi beli barang-barang nak buat kuih raya.

Cuti macam ni je laa sempat buat kuih raya, bile balik je dari Giant, terus mira buat kuih raye. Dapat la dalam due bekas. Kira ok laa, tak tau lagi bile nak buat kuih raye no 2. Tak sabar laa nak raye. So sebab mood raye ni, rase tiap-tiap hari sampai raye first mira nak buat post raye je.. Ok..Nanti sambung kemudian..

Skim Tenaga Pengajar Muda, UITM

It seems so quite today, not only the students dont attend the class, but the staffs also are already on leave. The good news is, my boss is not around. Coming to the office quite late today.

Early in the morning, em called me to remind me about uitm form which is due today. Since it was 7am in the morning, i pulled my comforter and continue sleeping. huhu, although he told me he would come over to my office to collect the form.

When i woke up, i realized that, it was already 8.15 am, i was quite panicked, yelaa i dint fill up the form yet.. So, secepat mungkin i mandi n mengadap borang. Of course em called me, and when he knows that im still at my house, so he changed his planned. Datang umah.. mak aii

When he arrived at my house, i was bz completing the form, so no time to entertain him. Actually, i wanted to avoid seeing him without the "uncomplete" work, but huhu terpakse.. because i was confused to choose my course. i guess you can assume how he reacts :D..

ok, em hantar i pi office, and then he submitted the form by hand. Arrived in the office around 9.40am. actually i have two classes today, but no students come. So sitting around, marking papers, doing some admin works.

Only stopped when receiving the special guests, my colleague's niece. had to babysit her while her grandma went for a hari Raya shopping. heheh, at least ade bende laa nak buat..

ok, now its already 3.45pm, nak packing, baba amik hari ni, oh, one of our staff resign today, so berkurang laa sorang staff kat sini.. hmmm when is my turn?????????

p/s thanks bang, heheh ampun!!! last minute work :p

Satu cerita

Semalam punyer cerite, banyak betul nak cerite.. Semalam mira ade kelas malam, pukul 6- 9, so sementara nak tunggu kelas tu start, sempat la blog dulu, panjang gile blog mira, sekali tetibe je, komputer windows 98 kat ofis tu (haha: saje je nak highlight windows 98 :p), menghilangkan page yang mira tengah pulun tulis, hai, dah tu bile refresh, tak de pun bende mira tulis.. bengang gile..

Semalam mira buat laa update dari hari jumaat sampai laa semalam, so hari ni summary je laa, malas nak tulis pepanjang, jumaat pi utp, jumpe dr. abas, bincang and discuss dengan die, actually nak mintak die jadik referee, lame gile borak dengan dr abas. seronok sebab die share some of his experience and give some suggestion to enhance my career perspective. totally agreed with him, abang.. i may ammend my career plan :)

then ade borak dengan pn hasiah, my supervisor, lamejugak, so sehari pi utp, lebih banyak duduk dalam lecturer punyer ofis dari lepak ngan naja and aiza.. mmm miss them.. sorry gals, i had to go back, sebab esok keje, nak sangat bukak puase kat utp tu..

ok, semalam punyer cerite lagi best.. semalam mira masuk ofis lambat, dalam kul 1, so sebab dah sampai awal, mira pun pi laa ampang point, note:tak kuasa aah nak duk ofis lelame :) so, tetibe teringat pulak nak renew license, actually license dah 4 days expired :D tapi bile tengok duit dalam purse, hehe tinggal bape je, so pi laa draw duit kat bcb which is situated outside the ampang point. so, it means i had to walk there..

so, bile keluar je dari ampang point, mira dengar ade perempuan menjerit and marah-marah, so mira ingat it could be accident, snatch thief. tapi bile datang je dekat situ, the cars were still in good conditions, pelik jugak, mane tak nyer, crowd gile aaa.. tapi tengok orang keliling, ade yang senyum-senyum, ade yang tengah bergosip.. so mase tu mira tak draw duit, so pergilaa draw duit dulu.. tapi sambil lalu kat situ, terdengar la one lady said "mak ko, kakak ko, adik ko semua nak rampas harte aku".. i know it sounds interesting to listen, but i need to settle my things first..

boleh tahan laa nak beratur kat atm machine tu, nimesti semua orang nak keluar duit untuk raye, so mira keluar laa dalam rm400, alang2 dah beratur panjang, baik kuar banyak2 sikit, lagi pun duit tu pun nak gune especially for the car, tu pun tak cukup kot.. :( so keluar je dari bcb tu, tengok2 derang gaduh tak habis2 lagi, dah laa blok jalan. note: derang gaduh kat main road bukan dekat parking space

hahaha, so mira jadik laa bz body, join the crowd, sesambil tu, pasang telinge gak dengar orang cerite.. rupenyer, these two ladies ni madu.. cerite die, first wife terserempak laki die dengan perempuan lain, and this lady is the second wife.. tak tau laa terserempak ke, die dah spy ke, dah tau die tu second wife ke tak, wallahualam. so first wife ni die dah jadik hilang pedoman, menjerit-menjerit and tak hirau langsung orang keliling die, paling tak gune, laki depa tu tengok derang ni bertekak, lagi die lari!! tak gune nyer laki, cam tu ke derang nak buat laki, bukannyer nak tolong ke ape, die biar je depa ni bergaduh

from the expression, i might say that the second wife nampak malu gile dengan ape yang dah jadi, die tak banyak cakap pun, menangis je, cume yang mira dengar "saya tak salah, saya tak tau ape2" and menangis2. yang first wife ni pulak, ee menakutkan, siap tendang-tendang kete, and tangan die tunjuk2 kat pompuan tu, tak tau lak pompuan tu dah kene penangan die ke belum, tu mira tak sure..

so, lepas tu pulak ade laa 5 polis mpaj sampai, nak leraikan keadaan, ade jugak orang tolong tapi si first wife ni mengamuk cam orang kene histeria..so polis ni datang nak saman derang due, sebab stop kete tengah jalan, and secondly, menganggu lalulintas la, sebab buat jam.. so polis2 ni suruh la derang beredar, tapi si first wife ni taknak, so one of the police, bawak second wife jauh sikit, tapi kan si first wife ni kejar, dah la depa lari towards me, mase tu perghhh takut laa jugak..

tapi of course orang pegang first wife and second wife ni, tapi sempat lak si first wife ni menjerit "tunggulaa kau lepas ni, aku bunuh kau, aku bunuh kau" banyak gile perempuan ni jerit2. so bile situation dah reda sikit, si first wife ni masuk dalam kerete, die pun nak pi, so kiterang ingat die nak blah laa, tapi tak, die masuk dalam kete, reverse and park behind the second wife car, so lagi laa jam, sebab tinggal satu lane je.. memang gile laa..

pompuan ni dah takut dah, so one of the police volunteered to drive the car, but, the first wife followed dari belakang.. hmm tak tau laa ape kesudahan die.. tapi tu laa memalukan, kalau yer pun nak gaduh, jangan aa depan orang, gaduh pulak pasal hal rumah tangge, habis semua cerite keluar, mira dari tak tau ape2 pun boleh tau, sebab first wife habis die cerite semua pasal rumah tangge die..

who we should blame?? ALL especially the HUSBAND.. allah tak marah pun nak poligami, tapi be fair laa, ni tak pasal2 pompuan gak jadik mangse.. ade ke patut tinggalkan bini-bini die bergaduh pasal die, die ntah ke mana.. yang first wife tu pun, hilang pedoman ke ape, ade ke patut cerite hal laki jerit2 bagi semua orang tau. tambah lak tak hormat bulan puase..

fuhh, terkejut gak, rase macam tengok dalam drama.. tapi tu laa, KL life.. macam-macam bende ade, ade yang baik, ade yang jahat, ade yang positif and ade yang negatif.. cume atas diri kite, mane satu kite nak ikut and mane satu kite nak jadikan pengajaran. hmm what a topful experience..

Ceramah

Just came back from surau, totally and extremely tired today, having classes directly from 1.40pm till 9.15pm. Break only to perform pray, even i broke the fast with the students inside the class. I dint allow them to go to the nearest restaurant because they were having test, if i allow, i dont think they can finish the test on time. And i not that patient to drag the time. :) Crazy right??

Just now i had taken one action, called the authorized party to change someone's attitudes. But aarghh!! the bureaucracy was terrible, from one person to another and from place to another, but i finally i managed to lodge a report. Do take note, from bottom of my heart, i dont want to embarass them, but i just want to teach them to respect our fasting month.

Just now, the ceramah given by Ustaz Khazim and i had opportunity to listen for 30 minutes, (i arrived home quite late today). Ok, heres some of the highlights that we can share together.

1. Before we make any decision, we should berzikir and read surah Al-Iqra'
2. Dreaming is divided into 3 categories
i. From Allah (usually its from 3.30 am to 5+ am)
ii. From iblis
iii.Mengigau (dont know what we call in English)

Lets say if we dream someone who had already passed away, wearing a white jubah and bertelekung, InsyaAllah, they are save and happy in Alam Bazarkh, and let say if we see them, wearing all blacks and having the negative expression, bear in mind, maybe, they want us to help them or we owe something from them

3. We cant force a patient to eat medicine, or bring them to the doctor. Medicine is not the remedy to all the sufferings, is all on Allah's willing. In Islam, there is a way to "force" our children to eat ubat, Feed them with the medicine starting from either side of the face, regardless left or right.

Only 3 points there, but at least better than nothing. One sentence from Ustaz Khazim before he ends his ceramah "Jadikan bulan Ramadhan ini, Ramadhan yang terbaik dari sebelumnya".

You should learn about life from this girl. Although I do not know who she is and where she is, but I inspired her courage in fighting for her disease. From a happy-go-lucky young lady, she has been diagnosed leukemia and now she has been warded for more than a month.

Just put ourselves in her shoes, im sure it will turn out to be pretty heavy going and frightening. Emotional pain is far more injurious. We may lose our objectivity, but this adorable young lady, has it powerful spirit to stand out and strive for the best in facing the test from Allah.

Reading her blog, you will swim into her heart and you will understand "berat mata memandang, berat lagi bahu yang memikul". To Nadia, remember, there is always sunshine after the rain. Positive attitudes leads to positive thinking, I certainly sure you are a strong person. Take this opportunity to bring you closer to Allah and your family, Allah is always beside us, when we need His help. InsyaAllah.

Marilah kite sama-sama mendoakan kesihatan Nadia, tiada apa yang dapat kita bantu melainkan berdoa.

Money and us

Fuhh!! Today my money flows like water, but still haven't settled the necessary part yet. Had a Hari Raya shopping with Azyan and Mimi, but I just spent the money for Azyan. Promised her that I will buy her Hari Raya stuffs, kalau tak beli hari ni, alamat tetiap hari die tuntut, tak larat den nak dengar.

Of course, I would not let myself came back with empty hands, so I bought a pants and toiletries. Before we went back, stopped at Bazar ramadhan to buy otak-otak, peparu and onde-onde although it was heavily rain.

Calculated how much I spent today, and realized that there is only a portion of this months' budget. Here is some of the list..

Renew my license
Ketuk kerete (I bang the car last month :)
Pay my IELTS
Raya preparation
Pay my phone bills
Season parking
Etc.. etc.. etc..

Actually the salary that we earn, it's more to fulfill our necessity rather than our savings, and the older we are, the more money is required. Luckily, at the beginning of my career, I don't have to worry about the car, house and food.

The definition of money is subjective from one individual to another depending on their lifestyle. People in town has high cost of living compared to those who live in kampong. Besides family matter, they may need the money to buy a new car, new house, new plan vacation, new jewelries and perhaps new land. And that is why; orang kampong can perform hajj earlier than us, because they don't have to be anxious about it, contrast to us. Mm.. why cant we follow their steps? Save our money to fulfill our main obligation. Dearie once told me, at least from now, he asked me to save rm100 per month, so that another 10 years, i can perform my hajj. Doesnt mean to hurt anyone but just giving an opinion..

p/s Met farizahani for the first time after 5 years today. She told me, im SIHAT!! waa tak sonok nya... Hana, dia kirim salam.. she mentioned ur name because she thought i was u :)...

Our school system

Aha, tomorrow it's a public holiday for Selangor in conjunction of Nuzul Quran and of course I will really appreciate this coming public holiday after the tiring weekend. Started the weekend by making a phone called on Saturday to inform my Miss Manager that I took the Emergency Leave. Why? I cant mention here, bahaye!! :) Have to think about any possibility before construct any sentences.

Anyway, my Saturday packed with that matter, promised Ani to meet her at KLCC at 2.45pm but I arrived quite late. Sorry Ani, ampun ya, and we went straight to the destination and after everything had been settled down, my family and I together with Ani directly went to PJ and bukak pause together.

And today, nothing interesting happened; canceled the plan to buy baju raya for Ika, and cleaning up my messy room :). Now, its 12.51 am and all my siblings had gone to sleep even though tomorrow it's the public holiday. They had been taught by my parents to sleep earlier except for me and Saffuan.

For the time being they are on and off going to school, and my mum allowed that since they have nothing to do there. Exam is over and the teacher does not conduct any activities. So, instead of they are wasting their time sitting around and doing nothing, might as well they stay at home. My sister said her teacher also did not warn or scold them if the students going back earlier and another sister of mine told me that her teacher even advised them not to attend the school.

In this case, I did not blame any of the parents, students or teachers but the system. The exam is done at least one month earlier before the school holiday. As the student before, I understand why the ponteng sekolah becomes widely practice by the students. My mum and my aunty once said our school system is different from their time. Last time, students enjoyed going to school, and this because of several reasons. First, they are no entertainment at their house and second, the teachers carried out extra activities for the students.

Last time, the teacher will teach them how to sew; cook, gardening, grooming and etc and even they were willing to pay for watching any videos. They can used any of the school facilities without any limitation. But since we are getting too modern, those things had been ignored. This is what happened today,

"Tak tau jahit, hantar kedai je"
"Tak tau masak, beli je"

School only focuses on theoretical elements and more concentrating in producing an intelligent student rather than shaping the attitudes and maturity of the students. When the exam is over, it means that the system has successfully finished at one stage. The students mind has been set that study is to pass the exam but not to gain more knowledge. School has become the place for conducting the structured plan rather than the place to incorporate strategic planning and the tactical planning.

p/s im talking about myself also. Announcement: who knows Nadia new blog address? Ani, kenape bile mira masuk je blog ani, mesti kene jangkit virus?

New environment

Have to do cross teaching today at another branch of my college somewhere in PuduRaya. Luckily i need to teach the subject which im more expert. Anyway, receiving the new working atmosphere here, back in Ampang, we are more kepochi but here they are more serious. No jokes around, no burst of laughter. But, the staffs are very cooperative and supportive. On and on, they will ask me whether im facing any difficulties.

Have been assigned to teach part time student and one of it is a foreigner. The first foreigner in my class ever. The class is more presentable and in a very conducive environment, i might say. But no Muslims around :(. For the first time ever, i broke the fast alone, bought a curly fries from A&W and ate in the surau, what a tragic story!. I dont mind to eat alone, but dont have the desire to eat. Mm.. this is what im going to face for another one month. Luckily, i have one student who accompany me to star, im not that brave to walk alone at night in PuduRaya area although there are many passerby.

Actually, im quite exhausted, but to think this is a halal rezeki, i am happy. Some more, the students tak putus-putus puji i. Sejuk hati :) and i am seriously enjoyed teaching there except for i dont like the idea that i have to go to Pudu area and comes late at night.

p/s glad that Dearie tak putus-putus hantar msg and called jsut to make sure im OK :)
