Back to Work

Salam all,

Argh ..... hmmm ..... that was an enjoying weekend that I had... What? Talking about about weekend when it is already Thursday??? Well, I had a long weekend ... a holiday actually. Beginning Friday. Friday-Sunday was the Central Spectrum's family day (it is where my husband earn our living, Alhamdulillah) in Malacca. A Famosa, Alor Gajah, to be exact. Co-incidentally I have a conference in Malacca too from Monday-Tuesday. Therefore, from Alor Gajah we moved to the Malacca town, Mahkota Hotel. It was our first time at the Mahkota Hotel (though many times in Malacca before). The place is nice. It has two large pools. The kids were up to the heel, enjoying their time there while ibu at the conference. Ayah? Bored to death watching the kids enjoying their time at the pool. They did not even bothered to visit the Malacca town as we had visited it quite recently.

The family day was enjoying too. Upon arrrival, we join the 'Walk Hunt'. Phew!!!! What a walk! To someone who seldom walk that far, it was a perspiring evening for me. And Gosh!!! then I realised that I need to do some exercise .....huhuhu ...got time for that???? don't think so .... but it's important especially when i have been putting extra weight lately. So how??????? Anyway, we won the second place - a RM200 Jaya Jusco's voucher. Ok ape??? After checking-in to the apartment unit we were assigned to, we agreed on a 'Saidina' game. It was one of the best game ever as all five of us were playing together - something that we rarely had the opportunity to do together. Well, this is really a FAMILY DAY. Other activities were water activities at the A Famosa Waterpark, visited the Carnival at the cowboy town and to the Safari park. And of course the highlight of this family day is the DINNER and lucky draw --- huhuhu we were not lucky this time.

After Malacca, we stop by at our most visited town (South-bound), Port Dickson. We conclude our 2010 vacation at another hotel in Port Dickson. We found another fun-to-stay hotel. The kids EXTREMELY enjoy this stay. Large and comfortable room. We enjoyed the swimming pool together. We hope to come back here.

Sabrina & Hakim with their Kumon bags. Tu yang mahal tu!!! Cuti2 pun kena buat kerja. Kesiannnn.


After more than five days travelling, the heap of clothes to be washed - need not mention. Alhamdulillah it was sunny a day after we got back.

Back at the office, I took almost 1/2 a day just to responds to emails. Huhuhu..... Read it carefully, RESPOND not just reading it.

Well, life is a circle. Coming January, the semester begins and I will be again, inundated with heaps of things to do. And still, i LOVE my job. Thank you Allah for blessing me with a happy and wonderful life. Forgive me Ya Allah for I sometimes forget to show my gratitude to you. Forgive me Ya Allah.

"Then which of the favours of your Lord will you deny?"
Surah al-Rahman.

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
