We love you, we cherish you, we pray for you well-being in the hereafter. Amin.

I was browsing through the net, to find the exact titles to some guests for the wedding.

I came across a blog which belongs to PBB Cawangan Senadin and I got my info.

I was quite amazed by the blog because you seldom see any of the PBB branches writing out blogs or even have an account.

And so, I scrolled down and I found an article, which in the end made my eyes teary.

Nothing touchy, just the memories left me in awe.

I never knew his total contribution to the family and to the country.

I would want to share the information with you and here goes..

(I copied from the page that I found earlier on)

Sleeping disorder.

I can't sleep hence why I'm here, writing and trying to make myself sleepy even though, logically, it won't help one bit.

I have trouble sleeping for almost a week now and I woke up when the sun is already high up.

Not good for a lady to do so, but then again, it's the holidays and menses would also be a good reason for being lazy - tossing and turning around on my bed just to gather up the strength to walk downstairs and start my chores.

Well, lately, I'm really occupied with tasks regarding my brother's wedding.

I'm quite upset with how he's acting these days but I guess, it's just the pressure that THE day is just around the corner.

Fuh! At last, one of the siblings is settling down.

It's kind of hard to believe that my big brother has chosen to end his single life but hey, he's been waiting for this day since..forever. I'm really happy for him.

I'm leaving to KL on the 21st and I'm really trying to finish up the cards.

Typing out the guests' lists, filtering, printing, sticking it onto the card and envelopes.

Honestly, I had no idea it would be hard work.

It seems pretty easy when mom told me that she needs my help with the invitation.

As the only child who is really available, I lent her my hand.

What I really hope is, that one day, for my big day, I would not want to burden anyone with the guests' lists.

I'd probably should start doing it now but that would be exaggerating.

I have no idea when will the day be but it's fine, I can be rest assured that things are going to be just fine.

My babes are there, right? (right babes? I hope you'd say yes =P)

Oh wedding wedding! Babe Jude's wedding is coming soon, too! In November!

Can't wait to meet her next week so, I can hear her rant and vent about her work and her life.

Heeeee. And speaking of weddings, June..

When June came around, oh dear, there were lots and lots of wedding invitations and counting.

Tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday, the week after and I think it's going to be lesser since school starts next Monday.

Wedding bells are ringing here and there. Much love to share =)

Oh dear, I hear Adzan now. Maybe I should try to lay down on the bed and close my eyes.

I really need my forty winks or I'm not going to get enough rest.

I know I won't the next week.

Lots of plans.

Lots of shoppings to do.

Lots of FUN things to enjoy!

*winks*

Will write more and want to read more from the babes.

xoxoxoxoxo. Nighty night!

Dare!

I feel like doing something crazy..

Like a boob job?

Nose job?

Lips job?

I might sound nutsy but I am not THAT crazy..

Eyelashes extension, can?

Ngeeee..

Tension..please..

Or buy a ticket to fly off to States ka..

Fidgety.

It's already a week after the holidays started.

I'm sitting at home, trying to recover from the wouldn't-want-to-recover headache.

I've missed a lot for the past few days.

I'm supposed to go out with my friends who apparently won't be coming back to the uni for it was the last semester for them. And I congratulate them! (for being able to finish on time).

I was also supposed to go to Azian's place with Nuwul but I just couldn't get up much.

I tried taking pain killers but they didn't even have the slightest effect.

Or is it just because this brain is lagging. o_o If there's such thing, probably it is.

Texted Diana for advice and she said it might be sinusitis or rhinitis and Nuwul said kenak ujan rintis-rintis. Haha.

Until now, I have no slight idea what it was. But but but, its better now!

Yesterday, I pulled myself out of the bed and figured that attending Aikido might help me bits - to recover.

Addruse said I need to sweat a bit.

Just been through a lot for finals and the faculty.

Heck, things got really hectic when it comes towards the end of the semester (and not done yet). And so, I went off for Aikido and there were only about 7 persons came. I had to play with Sensei Sula (scary but there were no girls at all) but it was all good. Addruse picked me up at 510pm and we went directly home.

When I reached home, I remembered that Nuwul once said, Ab came to her house to make her honey lemon and I said to myself, why not just try it.

But before I did that, I boiled the water to the max and steamed myself up with droplets of axe oil. Urgh, it wasn't pretty but I was kind of lucky that dad was there.

He told me to inhale through the nostrils 3 times and the mouth 3 times and done. I was like 'eh? ya ajak?' because I filled up half of the basin with hot boiling water and that's it?

The water was still hot so, I just pampered myself by steaming my face and part of my body with it.

Uh, I can tell you that it felt so much better, with the minty feeling.

You guys should try that. But do not pour too much axe oil in the basin.

I wasted quite a lot. More that 5 drops. Uff.

Right after that, I made myself hot honey lemon.

Wait..It wasn't hot honey lemon.

Dad told me I should not take honey and lemon together because of our temperature.

Somehow it makes sense.

People in the Western countries take honey and lemon together because they have lower humidity and the weather is cold most of the time.

He told me to mix the lemon with salt, and not sugar.

Never mix with sugar if you're coughing.

Honey is suppose to make you warmer, just like wine and it suits for mother in labour but not fever. *shrugs*.

Refreshing, though. I still cough and I told mom that the axe oil thingy doesn't work for me and she said "ah, you did it the wrong way. You should cover yourself with the blanket and sweat like a pig (literally)". Orang tua lamak marek pun method lain kali nak oh..

From my research (well from reading actually), when you have a fever, you should not sweat yourself to death. Take a good relaxing shower and get into a cold air-conditioned room.

That will help to lower the temperature down. Sounds logic to me, really.

Because if your temperature gets really high, you might be soaked in iced water. (that's what they showed in tv).

Ngahaaaa. Well, what I did was, I took my shower, I washed my hair and I feel like a brand new me. (cam best jak ayat ya..)

I didn't feel like staying at home because I know what might happen last night with Manjul and his..problems. He gets really sullen when the wedding gets nearer.

I'll rant about that later..once I feel like I should.

So, I went to watch Robin Hood. OH! I tell youuuuu, it's one great movie.

I can tell you this much.. You need to watch it! =D

Phew.

Yesterday I had my 2nd paper and my last reading subject. I'm quite glad that it's over for the reading subject even though I still have 3 more papers to go. Taxation, Costing and Financial Accounting. Tax is going to be quite fine because I understand the sections and whatnot for calculating taxes. As for Costing, God please help me because I'm really bad at apportioning overheads. Hope I can do well for the paper because I will need few As to cover up for my badly done Law paper.

I didn't get much sleep last two nights, struggling to finish reading all the marketing chapters and Alhamdulillah, I managed to do so. We're so lucky that most of the questions are based on past years' and somehow, I finished them in 1.75 hrs.

On Monday, I went off to bed at 930pm and woke up again at 1230am. Freshened up with cold shower, I focused on the reading and I stayed up until 630am. It was raining cats and dogs and my eyes were tired so, I've decided to call it quit. Addruse called me up at 715am, prayed and got dressed to send him off to the office. I could barely remembered anything else I've done but I had my breakfast with mom at home and took a nap at 930am. Woke up again at 1030am, flipped and read the past year papers and answers until 1pm. It was already quite late because the paper starts at 215pm. Showered, prayed and vroom vroom down to Uni.

I got there around 7 minutes before the paper started and Alhamdulillah, everything went on smoothly. The only thing that frightened me during the exam was David, my course mate, I think he was not quite prepared for the paper, he called out my name during the exam. He was sitting right next to me and when I turned to him, he pointed at one question, asking for answers! God gracious. I was sitting at the front row, with 3 invigilators walking around and he had the guts to ask me questions. That's suicidal! Haha. But then again, I just ignored him and kept writing down my answers.

I left the hall at 4pm, went to my hostel room to get some of my stuff and drove home around 5ish. The drive home wasn't really exciting due to the bottle necks here and there - road-works here and there. Drove to Addruse's office, picked him up and went straight to his place. I had the invitation to have dinner with the family, the dad was away until today.

At 910pm, Azian came and picked me at Addruse's place and we went to Nurul's place to take her out. Wait, we had planned for the night-out together. Been a while and I really needed a break. I was quite exhausted but then again, if I don't do it, when will it be? We could barely go out anymore because..this and that. Haha. (excuses =P)

We went out to Bing!. Our former chill-out place. Hope it will still be. Hee. The funny thing was, we searched out for "malay horror movies' trailers!!" Could be the last thing we'll ever do but we did it! It was weird but fun, really. Lucky us Azian brought her laptop along. Fifi came in between the hours and spent some time with us even though we were busy with Ms Swan and the trailers. Speaking of Ms Swan, its quite a surprise to know that Azian never knew about Ms Swan. Ain't that weird. Where have u been, babe? Nurul and I have been talking a lot..I mean a lot a lot about her, her "scripts" etc. And she just found out about her last night?! But no worries, at least u know..now. Haha. Met wa N-n and Uncle Abeb with their ortho friends, but that's about it.

And so, we left Bing! at 12am, if Azian car's clock is correct =P. They sent me off to Addruse's place so I could get Jennifer's Body into Nodame. He sent me home, cleaned up and laid onto the bed watching Jennifer's Body. It was quite creepy in the beginning, I was scared. Yes, I was. I even texted Nurul asking if its a creepy / horror movie. Haha, just in case. x_x I was watching it with an iPod with earphones! You can't expect me to be all brave. Haha.

Well, that was my Tuesday journey in another week in April. =)

Hope you had a great day yourself.

An full-packed Saturday.

Last night, I couldn't get much sleep. I think I dozed off at 4ish in the morning. I had quite a tummy flu but it went fine after I went to the loo. And so, I woke up at 830 in the morning. I had a morning call from Addruse just like I usually do, for my prayer. But today, I went back to sleep after I put down the call.

At 930am, I went to the travel agency to discuss on the proposed trip to London. Collin, the guy who will be my agent, gave me a tentative programme that seemed quite interesting. I was thinking of staying in London for the whole trip but then again, since Collin could provide us with a coach and tourist leader, who would want to stay in one place when you can travel all the way to Manchester. I need to keep updating him on the plans and proposal and I really hope I could settle it before semester break starts.

While in the afternoon, after Zohor, I went to Aina's place with Addruse and met Azian there. It was sad that her little brother was involved in a car accident. The last time I met her was during Hari Raya, MIS Spm 2000 reunion. She just had her baby and she still look really good. Anyways, the accident was tragic and the only thing I wish for is he will be placed among the good people down there, InsyaAllah. Al-fatihah.

Around 230pm, from Aina house, I headed off for Aikido which should start at 3pm but now it starts at 330pm (I just knew after I read the notice outside the dojo). Overall, I had a great time and I really enjoyed today's lesson. One news I would like to share is, all the students from Sekishin Dojo are invited to join Aikikai Aikido's seminar in Hanoi in November. The rule is easy. Make sure you have USD250 in hand. I just checked the currency exchanger and it says..

1.00 USD

=

3.18900 MYR

Ain't that great! One problem though, if the proposal is approved, i'll be leaving to London in December. Could I afford both trips? Hanoi in November and London in December. Uff. I'll just need to keep my scholarship tight. I sure hope I could.

Eeek, look at the time. Addruse is going to pick me up in few minutes. We're going off to GH to visit his friend, Shah. He just had a surgery. I really hope things will get better for him. Amin.

And guys, this is the end for today's post.

Another post for today.

Oh oh, I have a new rabbit. Well, not really mine but mom bought it for dad's birthday.

They call it A-chin. I have no idea why but that name is the former owner's name.

She even got 3 goats for dad. Haha, super ordinary presents for super ordinary dad, huh.

I would upload her photo (A-chin) but apparently I don't have any.

Regarding the goats, mom and dad has officially opened their goat farm in Samarahan. I have yet to visit but I will during the holidays. As soon as the rabbit's area is done, Chibi and his new gf (haha) will move there as well.

And so, that will end my entry. =P

Good night and sleep tight.

My first after so long.

Well, it has been a long time since I stopped blogging. Not that I blogged a lot but I stopped and deleted my account because I don't write as much about my life. So many things to share about my life, well, stuff that people can know. Just to share news with my bestbabes and my other half and if to those who are reading this, trust me, you guys are special, too.

To start, I'm just going to emphasize on my status. =)

I am engaged to my wonderful loving boyfriend..oh *coughs* fiancé, I mean. Addruse Bin Hassan is the name given when he was brought to the world. To be honest, I was not even ready for the commitment. I don't think I have told anyone about it but I guess, if you keep saying you're not ready for one, when do you think you will be prepared for all this? Some people says that once you're in that level, some things will get worse. It all depends on the couples. People tend to argue a lot, trust issues will start to shroom out off no where. The most important thing to remember is, stay together, trust each other and you can always add in "give and take".

Personally, I think that would be the most important aspect in a couple's life. If one likes to frown, cheer him up, make him laugh. That's why God created us..in couples. =) And for those who has not meet the love of the life, not to worry. Pray, pray a lot but never leave out the big E. Effort. In everything you do, you will always need that. You can't rely on luck alone.

And so, here are some photos to be shared.

It was held on the 13.02.2010.

Thanks to my babes for being there.

Love love!
