Cat Dog

Have u ever watch that series? Well, my younger kids LOVE it .... it's a stupid and did not make sense at all. How can a cat and a dog be attached together? What an imagination ..... i wonder how the creator of this cartoon series got the idea. Stupid? Shhhh..... But I enjoyed watching it tooo ... well, maybe sometimes .... It's secret ok? Don't tell anybody that I like to watch it ....

Hello! Hello! What are you mumbling about? ................ Yes, I can hear you. You are asking, what the heck am I doing talking about the CatDog? I wanted to actually highlight a different 'catdog', it's about the pepatah Melayu ... Bagai anjing dengan kucing.

What does it mean?? Nak jadi Karam Singh Walia sikit hari ni.

Bagai anjing dengan kucing (It's like a dog and a cat) means two person that cannot meet each other as they will always fight when they are near to each other.

That is what happen to two of my kids: the eldest and the youngest. The second child is the cool type and tries to give in when in a fight (tapi kadang-kadang tu, dia belasah juga adiknya .... aku biarkan je ...., they'll survive).

When I came home from office for lunch today, I can hear Hakim's voice crying even from the gate. I wonder ... What now????? Opening the door was Sabrina, "Ibu! Hakim nangis. Kakak tendang dia". The reporter reporting live from the scene.

My hunger strikes, my blood pressure rose, "Atikah! Kan ibu dah cakap banyak kali jangan melampau sangat dengan adik", I burst out.

"Hakim tu yang menyakitkan hati. Ejek-ejek orang. Atikah tak sengaja. Bukan nak buat kuat, tapi dia hadang, tu yang kena", defended Atikah, while Hakim is crying out loud.

"Dah! Hakim, berhenti nangis. Lain kali jangan sakitkan hati orang", I blurted again.

Wahhh .... Not easy maa.... to become a referee. I must be fair. I don't want them to think that I am biased, especially Atikah who always thought that i favor the younger ones compared to her. That's not true my dear ... I love all of you equally.


Witnessing their LOVE!

Atikah, just look at the eyes of your brother and sister .... they are still little girl and boy ... be patient with them. I know you can tolerate with them. Hakim is a boy ... born to be naughty.

Asrama K.Ngah at MITST Alam Impian

Assalamualaikum. Asrama? Biasalah. Ramai yang pergi asrama. Nothing exciting about asrama. When I was a child, I used to read the story books. Series of them. We have the Famous Five, Secret Seven, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and one of my favorite is the Malory Towers. Malory Towers tells a story about life in a boarding school. It is also a reason for me wanted to go to a hostel. It motivates me. I always thought that all hostels are as envisioned by the writer. Luxury place to stay with lots of friends around. Full of activities and adventure. But...well.... story books are mostly fictitious. It was written to draw readers into purchasing it. My hostel was far worst that what I imagined. But there is where I grew up - my teenage life. Sending K.Ngah aka. Sabrina to her hostel last Sunday, brought back the Malory Towers into me. The dorm was luxurios. Single bedded. Six in a room. Large closet. Plenty of storage space (drawers attached to the bottom of the bed). And a study

Antara Anyer dan Jakarta

"Antara Anyer dan Jakarta" was a title of a song sang by Sheila Majid back in 80s. I tried to find the meaning of "Anyer" using the Google translate but to no avail. What about the song? Nothing. It's just because I just came back from Jakarta for a conference trip cum SHOPPING trip. I was accompanied by Suzana Ahmad and Norizan. Day 1: ====== Our journey began on 12th December. At approximately 5am, the driver reached my house. Izan is already there, in a short while Suzana arrived. We headed to KLIA. The check-in was a winding queue. After checking-in it leaves us with barely enough time for fajr prayer. At 9am, the tree stooges sat foot on the Indonesia land. We make a quick visit to the money changer and proceed for a cab. We have planned for the trip carefully and agreed to travel light as we will not be checking-in to the hotel upon arrival as the checking in time is only at 3pm. Instead, we headed towards our first destination, TANAH ABANG. It is r

Doa ketika ternampak orang sakit dan mohon terhindar darinya.

Assalamualaikum, Ahad malam Isnin. Malam yang sedih sayu. Biasanya hari Ahad, adalah hari ziarah anak-anak atau hari menghantar anak-anak balik ke asrama. Upon doing that, when entering the home, I can feel the emptiness. The quiet house, no greetings, no laughters. And due to that, I will make my way to the surau, to gather bits of pearl of knowledge. "O Allah, forgive me if the reason for my being in Your masjid is wrong Forgive me, Ya Allah. But truthfully, its too quiet at home, and to me, being in the masjid is more meaningful rather than locked in the empty house alone. Forgive me Ya Allah." And tonight, it was Ustaz Firdaus. Sharing on Feqah. And one thing that I really think fruitful to share is this piece of doa.  ‘Alhamdulillah hillazi aafani mim mabtalaka bihi wa fadhalaani ala kaseerim mimman khalaqa tafdheela.” The Prophet said: “If somebody recites this dua while he saw someone else in some fatigue or tensions, he would not be involved in t
