Bila nak habis study ni????

2011-04-01T20:31:00.004+08:00

This is not the question everybody should ask to any Ph.D candidate...But I keep questioning this to myself again and again. This is my 5th semester and I desperately want this to be over huhuhu:((

A friend of mine said:

"It's between you and god, this is what I learn through out my study. If you (referring to me) think that you've had it hard enough, think of others that were thousand times harder than you..."

Thanks to her wisdom words, that I keep reminded myself to be more patient. May through this hardship we find the way....Insyallah

Catch Up

2010-10-19T19:42:00.011+08:00

It's been a while, me, malas nak blog...It's not like I don't have anything to write on, but so malas nak upload...So, alang2 dah rajin ni I'm gonna summarize the whole things huhuhuhu....

Let me start with our raya celebration which was in my hometown first, with our theme color...orange! The rest of the family members look good in orange, but I think I was lost in the color hehehehe...whatever!!!, won't let the color made me small...apa2 asal I suka:))). We took the opportunity to bring their nephew and niece for makan2 as it's hard to find a good time for big family gathering.So, we went to Marry Brown and had our dinner there...

On our back to kampung...


Adam with his cute face...

Their only nephew and niece...

My mak & abah:)

families...

Makan time:))

We went back to KT on fourth raya. Unfortunately, we didn't even had time to visit our relatives as Adam was admitted due to fever!!! It wasn't serious actually, as Adam only having a high fever due to exhaustion, but we were frustrated with the diagnosed by the Doctor. We went to the specialist hospital in KT. It is the only one specialist here. They classified this as a unique case as Adam had a high fever with no swollen at his tonsil (Actually, the med rep didn't even had a thorough look at the tonsil!!!). He refused to give an antibiotic and forcing Adam to be admitted to the hospital. Even the so-called specialist was not special either and the nurses there were not well trained as well as the poor services with the super expensive charges!!

Posing at Hospital....suka buat muka cute!!!

Ala2 model gitu:)))

Next is our college convocation. Hmmmm... we were assigned in "pertandingan Mewarna" a very tiring yet enjoyable experience for us...But, next time,PLEASE assign others to accomplish the task, as this really needs a rotation (letih gilaaaa!!!). Aiman & Alisa took part in the competition for fun only, as winning was far beyond reach huhuhuhu.

Alisa...mewarna

Lambatnya nak habis warna!!!

All kids are busy coloring

There was another great event during the pesta Konvo which was "Tayangan Amal GAZA". I brought Aiman and Alisa along so that we together boleh muhasabah diri.... Hate the fact that we the ENTIRE muslim in the world are hopeless in helping the palestinian fought over only few thousands ISRAELS. So, for us, the least contribution is BOYCOTTING israel and its ally products...

Alisa's fav aunty... Aunty Ng:))) They're like sister!!!!

Aiman sempat posing:) Aunty azna hid her face huhuhuhu....

My study...ok la, slowly progressing (asal kan gerak, betul tak:)) with full loads in hands, I'm really pushing myself harder in achieving the target! May Allah be with me...Ameen..

Back to work, I've been framed again:((( It's the same person with rotten heart!! Well, I took it as part of the challenges in completing my PhD. There is a say "A journey to success is not easy". Well, I supposed it's true....

Haaa!!! Here comes my (actually our) new addiction; self treatment!!! We ( me and the gang) found a new port to accomplish the mission:) Best gilerrr!!! A one stop centre: mandi wap, berurut, bekam, acupuncture and so many mores!!! With most of the treatment I've undergone, I could be their products ambassador hahahahaha!!! It's really a best self indulgence place at a very affordable price...So, call me if you wanna know the address;)

Well, that's all for now:) I'll keep up blogging when I'm free huhuhhu....

This week is the third week of the new semester. So,class running as usual. I'm teaching a new batches students from other faculties. It's been a while I've been stuck teaching students from our faculty. It's not that I don't like it, but with so many things happened around me, I'm actually prefer to go outside the faculty:( As I mentioned on my last entry, I need time to heal...)

I was assigned to teach four subjects that are 2 diplomas and 2 bachelor subjects, which is ok la as long as not that 'subject'. One of my class is packed with over than hundred students. Alhamdulillah I'm actually enjoyed being in the class with them. I guess this is it...don't send me back to the faculty huhuhuhu....

Meanwhile, Ramadhan is just around the corner and I'm busy baking for hari raya orders.Alhamdulillah, thanks Allah for the rezki...As usual, I only receive order for Kek Lapis during Hari Raya seasons due to small storage...So, for those who wants to place their order, please go to my cake's blog and do so:)))

Forgiving not forgetting

2010-07-08T07:56:00.013+08:00

Forgiving...this word has never come across my mind at this moment (I'm talking about these particular 'personssss'). For every pain they've put me through had scarred me deeply:((( Letting them messed up with my emotion was the stupid thing that I've shouldn't let happened, but can't help it:( I feel that I'm slowly losing my burning passion towards my career....sad to admit that:( Everyday, is the same unmotivated day to me....

For some people forgiving is the best thing to do which I think is true....but I'll need times to heal and forgive but surely NOT forget.Despite everything that had happened I believe there is something Allah had for me Insyallah...

Adam...adam...adam...

I'm facing the toughest period in my career:((( This is not the first time though, but this is the hardest...

H1N1

2010-05-05T19:27:00.040+08:00

Alisa had high fever starting on last Friday, so I brought her to the clinic. Doctor gave antibiotic which last for 3 days and according to him, the fever should be ok after that. During the 3 days period, her fever was so high (38.5-39 deg) with no sign of decreasing. Hubby didn't sleep for 3 nights taking care of her:((( Really appreciated him and grateful for having him as my hubby!! We were so worried because Alisa also had asthma and she's so fragile...just look at her skinny and small size, you'll knew it!!!

Finally, on the third day, her temperature has decreased and the fever was gone. However, I continually monitoring her temperature just to be cautious.She was ok for 2 days (I'm recording her temperature 3 times a day!).However during the second night, she got a fever again with 38 deg!!! I was shocked!!! I called hubby and asked him to come back home immediately, I was so trembling thinking of the possibility of H1N1, and Alisa is categorized as high risk if she's having H1N1 due to her asthma...

The next morning, we hurried to the specialist. Doctor ran a blood test and x-ray. From the result, he suspected that Alisa might has an influenza like symptom H1N1. My face turned white and I was speechless and surely Doctor noticed that. He told us to undergo the swab test for H1N1. I was praying the result would be negative, can't imagine what'll happen next...I was about to cry...!!

Finally,the result was out and it's negative!!! Alhamdulillah, we were so relieved.Felt half of the burden was lifted up from me...It was bacteria and virus infection at her lung.So, Doc prescribed an antibiotic + antiviral along with other medicines.According to him kids with asthma are prone to get lung infection with prolong fever or cough.

A Sad story...

2010-04-30T13:39:00.005+08:00

I took this from my friend's fb and it touched me deeply as I read it...surely it'll touch you too...

To those who are married, .. Not married .. and soon to be married, I hope you will be touched with this story... MARRIAGE When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes. Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce.. I raised the topic calmly. She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why? I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Dew. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now. The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again. In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage. This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that everyday for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning.. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request. I told Dew about my wife's divorce conditions.. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.. My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office. On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time.. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her. On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger. She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily. Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head. Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mum out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day. But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce anymore. She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead.. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart. That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead. The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage! If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you. If you do, you just might save a marriage. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

Campaign...

2010-04-14T15:20:00.009+08:00

We were invited to support in "Jangan buang bayi" campaign. So, we came out with this idea, which I think the root of the problem...It may seems funny and we were tergelak2 while doing this, but personally I think this is one of the way to tell the teenagers where they ended up (di akhirat) by doing all those uncivilized act..So, think of it ok:))

Clear message...the drawing was accomplished by our talented artist...azna:)))

azna is drawing 'hell'

me...is writing 'jauhi maksiat'

I chose a traditional massage, which covered the whole body massage within 1 hour. My body enjoyed being pampered. However, I do felt an unbearable pain which is good-to-feel pain...hahahaha!!! After end of the session all my waist and back pain gone!!! best giler!!! And today, I felt bengkak2 all over my body (this is my first massage after 2 years!, mana tak sakit). Would like to come again next time...yuhuuuu....

A nice and relaxing room...tak sempat nak snap other corner of the room:))

Workshop

2010-04-09T20:45:00.009+08:00

Finally a 2 days workshop on final year project preparation is over. The workshop which was held from 7th-8th April in our faculty hall. It was actually an initiative done to help final year students with their final project especially in report writing and presentation. It was a big relief for me as everything turned out as planned even if I'm exhausted and drained out after the workshop:((

I'm quite satisfied with the response from the students. However, there were numbers of them whom still daydreaming and ignorance!! For me it's simple, it's your project and it's up to you guys...I'm doing this out of my concern for them and so that they'll learn something and didn't repeat the same mistakes again...

Ok, enough on that, it's now my study time>> modeling tak siap lagi, control still stuck!!!! chaiyok me! Shoohs all the difficulties and so that I can finish on time:)) Amin...

Spot the difference...

Last week me and kids had lunch together after fetching Aiman and Alisa from school. After finished our meal, we were heading back to our car. Alisa was running cluelessly to the other car that she mistaken as mine (biasa la budak tu cam mama dia, main taram jek!). The car was the same brand and color like mine.I called her and told her that next time she should has recognized our car number. To my surprise Aiman with his sharp statement:

Aiman : Apa la.. adik ni kereta mama pun tak kenal...
Mama : A..ah la adik ni, lain kali tengok la nombor kereta mama...
Aiman : Entah adik ni, kereta mama kan pemegang pintu dia warna hitam, kereta tu warna putih
Mama : Ye ke bang? (while looking at my door handle and comparing with the other car)
Aiman : Ye la ma...mama tak tahu ke?

Hmm...actually even I didn't notice the difference...Aiman is soooo... like abah, detail gillerrr.Alisa as usual la definitely took after me...hahaha nak marah pun segan!!!!

Aiman : Mama, dekat pintu KFC tu dia tulis tak boleh bawak masuk binatang.Tapi...kenapa semut boleh masuk?
Mama :Sapa yg bawak semut tu masuk? dia masuk sendiri kan wakakakakak....
Abah : Semut tu bukannya binatang...

As stupid as donkey

Mind your words:) or else you are no difference from donkey:))))
I'm quite bengang with this someone, who never learnt his lesson...If you don't know about something,the best thing you can do is shut up!!! Malas nak story what happen, enough if I told you he don't deserve the respect....

Promotion

2010-03-28T15:23:00.010+08:00

Alisa doing promotion for my cakes at school...she's really good in marketing:)) From all the cakes and buns she brought to school, she managed to do a word of mouth marketing to all her teachers...One day she came back home from school with the message from her classroom teacher + other teachers as well...

"Mama, cikgu Z pesan suruh mama bagi senarai kek yg mama jual dengan harga.Cikgu suruh bawa esok jugak"

and today she told me:

Cikgu Z: Kek Tiramisu tu apa?
Alisa : Kek tu ada rasa biskut, susu dgn coklat. Best kek tu...

Proud of her marketing skill:))
