Salam people.

Life's getting a bit bored after the holidays. Well, it's up to me to live life. Today there's the s.e.a retreat but due to a foreseen circumstance, can't make it. Really sorry to fellow sea-ians. To someone, jangan merajuk k, kte tak ada nanti nak pujuk =p.

Well, most of the time i'm at home doing nothing much, but just now, in the morning, went to my brother's school to buy his books and uniform. Then, went to the library, and I realized how long i've not borrowed any books, I think, the last time was when I had the American Politics assignment, which was end of last year till early this year. Fuh, cant' forget the ordeal, right rhy? Found a few interesting books, and borrowed books about gardening, muslim heritage, going green (macam paham) and a novel. heh.

Went to Kfc to have our brunch and ate the black pepper chicken. dah kepingin sangat nak rasa. Then had this funny conversation with my brother.

Me: Tengok tu pat luar, tu kan pelakon india yang act cerita erlim montel.
Him: Ish, mana ada, Tak kan jadi security guard pulak.
Me: Eh, mana tahu, bukannya semua pelakon kaya.

Then a few seconds later,

Me: Eh, tengok tuh, kelakar ke pe, security guard yang lagi satu tu tgh pakai make up!
Me: hahaha, pat tgh2 jalan pulak tuh.
Him: eh? yelar
Me: Eh, tu Alias Kadir laa!
Me: Ada shooting rupanya. -__- (dalam hati: paisehnyaa aku!)

Should I get a part time Job? if yes, what will it be???

hmmm....................................................................................

That's all from me for now.

what a wonderful time 2

salaam people!

So here goes the second part of my holidays~~

8th December, Tuesday.

Woke up at 530 in the morning. That's early, I'm just too excited to get ready. Heh. We depart at 7am with 2 cars in row, 14 people. Our destination is...... LANGKAWI! It was unimaginable, but Alhamdullilah I got the chance. =D I was in the car with all my girl cousins, macha, and my second cousin, as the driver. Although it was squeezy with 4 people in the rear, didn't mind much. At the Gas station, I hurriedly went inside the kiosk to stock up, guess what? Strepsils and vicks. My cough was getting worse and I don't want to infect others in the car. Heh. So the journey was quite long, longer than Johor to KL, and my 2nd cousin turn on hindi and tamil songs. What can I expect? haha, 4 Indians against 1 Malay and 1 Chinese. But in the end, me and my cousin have Indian blood too. But I didn't mind at all, because I like Hindi songs too! We talked, and Macha kept cracking up jokes and all the girls kept laughing. It was a joyful ride, I could say. Then Macha turn on tamil nasyid. Quite cool since it's the first time I heard such a song. But the tune and melody seems very oldies. Heh. On the way, kept smsing with murni as she was in malaysia too and we were using digi so our smses only cost us 1 sen for each sms. Cool right?
It took us 5 hours to reach Kuala Perlis Jetty. As the ferry doesn't accomodate cars (unlike going to pulau pinang) we need to unload our bags and park the cars at designated spots. The sun was scorching hot as we unload the many many bags. One of my cousin was assigned to count the number of bags, and every time he recount, he got a different number. haha. That explains the amount of bags we got. We didn't wait for long to get on board the ferry. The last time I was board on a ferry was last year, I think, on my way to pulau pinang. The procedure to board the ferry was unsystematic and it was quite stuffy inside the ferry. But I guess, It was worth it.
The journey on board the ferry was about an hour. The ride was smooth and I don't feel as if I'm at sea. Some of my family members dozed off for a while. Travelling is tiring, Believe me, although there is not much movement. I wonder why...
At last! we reached the shores of Langkawi. I was marvelled by the clear blue waters. There is so much difference between the sea at Kuala Perlis and the sea at Langkawi. The shopping centre near the jetty was quite modern. We were divided into two taxis, one with ten persons, the other 4. I was with the 4 person taxi, we settled quite fast and the driver just sped off without waiting for the other taxi. they were still loading bags and whatsoever not. When we reached the villa, we got to know that the other ten were having their lunch. -__- and we have to wait at the lobby for them for about 30 mins. Thank God they bought us lunch. Haha. After everything's settled and we went to our own rooms and had lunch, we quickly changed our attire to go the beach!! It was a nice villa with open space to play ball games. we played football first, then volleyball then submerged ourselves inside the sea. The sand is very very soft and every step I take my feet sank inside the sand. The seawater was so clear that even after i'm submerged halfway, I can still see my feet clearly. I feel really contented and happy. Then went to the pool. Although I'm not dressed properly, I quietly went inside the pool. Heh. There's a lot of foreigners at this villa, and lots of Arabs too and there's signs in arabic. It didn't felt like I was in Malaysia at all with that kind of surrounding and environment. It just feels great!

9th December, Wednesday.

It's a pity that we've only got to stay a night in Langkawi due to last minute booking. But well, had enough fun. Alhamdulillah. In the morning had fun for one last time before packing up. I had too much fun till I forgot to take lots of pictures in Langkawi. hampeh. But well, it's enough that i've captured inside my mind as a memory. =) Check out at 12 plus and we headed to the cable car place. I was excited but in the end didn't get the chance to ride due to lack of time. The scenery's enough for me. Upon reaching the jetty, I did some window shopping alone while the others waited for my uncle to buy the ticket. I was not far away from them and I kept glancing to make sure that I didn't miss them. While I was paying for some stuff that I bought, I turned around and the whole bunch of people was gone. I kept my cool as i had my msia prepaid with me. I called my uncle but there's no reply. They had gotten the 3pm ride and it was already 2.56pm. I was feeling a bit nervous and tried to navigate my way through the jetty. Alas! they were already queuing to enter the jetty and i managed to catch up on time! kalau tak, tinggallah daku keseorangan di Langkawi. hehe. Felt very relieved. Inilah akibatnya kalau tak stay with the group. Pengajaran yang penting buat diriku. Inside the ferry, there's a hindi movie playing and I watched until I felt asleep. What a tiring but wonderful journey. Reached Kuala Perlis and got inside the car and made our way to penang. What a road trip! Reached Vistana hotel at Pulau Pinang around 8pm, freshen up, and had our dinner at a popular restaurant nearby called something like kayu nasi kandar and had our rest for the next day activities.

10th December, Thursday.

Woke up late as everyone was tired from the drive form Langkawi to Penang. Somebody brought breakfast and we ate at the hotel. Nothing much to do, just walk around the hotel and watch the others play at the swimming pool. Then we packed and went to Flamingo hotel by the beach. It's the first time I'm going there and don't know what to expect. After eating our lunch at a restaurant with a cheeky name called line clear we headed to the hotel, and wow, it is really a nice place. All of us stayed in one apartment. Although it is hard for me to comprehend, all of us fitted nicely in that comfortable apartment. And again, we changed our suits and headed to the beach! Took some pictures and my uncle was surveying the watersports available. And in the end, some of us went parasailing and jet skiing!! It was unbelievable for me to ride the jet ski. I had this fear of drowning but I tried to push that feeling away. I decided to ride with my brother as he wanted to operate the jet ski. It was great. the feeling of being away from the coast on this small jet ski was exhilarating. My brother was a bit nervous to drive too fast and he kept accelerating and breaking. It was hilarious. nak kanchong ada, nak ketawa melihat telatah kita berdua pon ada. I feel the freedom of life. The freedom of making choices and the risk involved. k.. berbual world pula. After that played volleyball, and I don't know why I was so lousy. I think I played football a tad better after that. Heh. I defend the ball without me moving. The ball just reflected! haha. It was a friendly match between us. With 14 people, it's great to play sport games together. That's what I realized during this trip. =)

11th December, Friday.

The day had come for us to went back home to KL. In the morning, me and my cousin decided to walk at the beach to see the sun rise, but it was a bit too late as we waited for the others to get ready. In the end, I was all by myself walking at the beach having some quality time by myself. It's been really long since I've been with nature. Was planning since I don't know when to destress by visiting nature but in the end, I get more that what I've wanted. The view was gorgeous. Just standing at the shore, looking towards the endless sea, with waves splashing at my feet, I feel the peace, the tranquility that surrounds me. It was calming. I was really thankful to Him to let me feel all these wonderful emotions.
Had a delicious buffet breakfast and a heart to heart talk with my second cousin. Went back to the hotel to pack up and relax while the the others went to the swimming pool for the last time. I even had time to watch a movie at tv1. -_- Had maggi for lunch while the others were othering nice foods. why? My throat still hurts like ****. Ouh, and tired of eating Indian food. Seriously. On the way back home, drop by a relative's house at Kuala Kangsar. Over there, some were flat on the sofa and even on the floor. Even the tuan rumah offered me pillows for me to lie down. yelar~~ da puas da main. There's this cute little adorable girl that me and my cousins played with. Made me forget about my sickness and tiredness.
At last! Reached KL at around 11pm. After reaching home, straight went to bed, and I really mean straightaway, with my tudung on. hehe. Was so tired, as during the journey in the car can't get proper sleep due to space constraint.
It was really a wonderful trip and it's all thanks to my beloved uncle and aunt. May Allah bless them. =)

That's all from me for now! =D

what a wonderful time

Salaam people!!

The holidays that I had was really great. Although I was sick since the beginning of the trip, I had fun. And although there were some things that I didn't get to do, I feel blessed. Blessed that God has given me the gift to see, to see the wonders of his creation.

Okay, let's start with the day I finished my last paper. 2nd December, Wednesday.

I was feeling really upset after doing my last paper without any real reason for being that upset. My initial plan was to just follow what the girls had plan to do after the last paper, just eat and chilled. I didn't had a proper breakfast and lunch, since the paper was at 2pm. But after doing that last paper, suddenly, I had no mood at all to do anything, and there was this negative vibe inside me. I just decided to go home at the spur of the moment. Then, in the bus, after I called nenek, was feeling a bit okay, and I don't know why, but I'm really glad I didn't follow the girls. Bought some food and went home. Maybe the emptiness had crept inside me. Well, before, I was so full with my studies, school life and friends, but I feel after that last paper, everything had come to an end.

3rd December, Thursday.

I was suppose to go to KL today with nenek but was not that ready yet, haven't pack a single stuff and two of my cousins are coming over to go to KL with us. Then bapa called and asked me to buy the ticket today so that I will not be in hurry tomorrow to buy the ticket. I was wondering how am I suppose to go to Larkin alone to buy the bus tickets, my brother is in school and it was a last minute thing to ask any of my friends to accompany me. In the end, nenek was the one. Kesian nenek, susah dapat cucu yang pengecut. heh. At Larkin, I was contemplating which time should I choose because there is a MSP meet up tomorrow. In the end, after much thought, I took the 2pm bus as I think that even if I took the night bus, maybe I will not have enough time to make it.
After that, in the afternoon, ask Farahin out as it was quite long since we last met up, it's a pity that Fathin and Jam couldn't make it. I need to buy a pair of casual shoes as my school shoes just gave way. I usually buy lady like shoes at Joo Chiat Complex due to my big foot, but one of my friends suggest CottonOn. Was quite lazy to go all the way to Geylang. Thank God there's a CottonOn outlet at Causeway Point. So meet Farahin around 3pm and we hugged like it's been ages. haha. Farahin was such a camwhore and I was a bit embarassed to take pictures publicly, like depan semua orang boleh nampak.. haha. but it's for a good friend of mine, so just tahan ajelah.. hehe. Ouh, and I had my first meal at Pastamania with her. The food's quite nice, but just not my kind. terlalu muak. but it's nice. heh. Pictures are available at facebook. =) Ouh and we shared a bunch of stories and secrets. hehe. soo sweet of you to tell me. She told me a lot of things about UIA, and it's tempting me to enter there, but I still have another choice, so I'm still considering.
It was really hectic during the night bacause packing up was never easy. It's harder when you are unsure how long you will be away. i just packed till my luggage got full. hah.

4th december, Friday.

At last!! My holiday trip!! I was really glad that I could get away from Singapore asap. I just feel relieved. Felt that I left all my sadness, negative feelings, burden, at home. The journey was smooth, Alhamdulillah, except for the peak hour jam in KL as we reached there around 6 pm when people are rushing to go home. Thank God there's this cute little girl sitting in front of me playing wiht me and my cousin. Baby's game, peak a boo, and whatever not.. hehe. Quite entertaining, if not the bus ride will be dull.
Upon reaching Puduraya, called my father using the money eating public phone so that someone would fetch us. While waiting, ate at KFC as we were quite famished. Quite surprised that at KFC over there there's nasi ayam. Well, It's a malay dominated country. Saw a familar face entering KFC. It was Macha (brother in law), my 2nd cousin's husband. He came just as we finished our meal. He brought his wife and 2 adorable daughters. The elder one kept asking for kooli. Then I asked my 2nd cousin, kooli tu ayam eh? and my guess it's correct. hehe, biasalah budak-budak.. soo cute. In the car, that little girl sang tamil songs. soo cute. When i asked her something in Malay, She answered in Tamil. -__- Nevermind, she hasn't go to school yet. heh.
Upon reaching my aunt's house, my mom greeted me at the door. So sweet. padahal baru 5 hari tak jumpa. tsktsk.. she hugged me so tight. hehe. macam mana lah nanti kalau nak sambung belajar? hmm. Then, quickly freshen up because my 2nd aunt's had a small gathering because we haven't visit her house yet although it has been several years she had asked to come to her house. -_- During my stay here, there's never a shortage of food. Oh my weight! huhu.

5th december, Saturday.

My first morning in KL. Woke up quite late, Being a traveler is quite tiring. Had my brunch and whatsoever. In the evening played badminton with them. It's been long since I played any sports but I had a great time playing, although my arm was feeling quite sore after that. Had my bath but was feeling tired and sick so decided to lie down while the others were preparing to go to the restaurant. (Fyi, the resturant refers to my aunt's family restaurant.) Woke up in the night and felt feverish. I prayed that I would not get sick because i'm having my holidays. huhu. But it's up to fate. Ate a bit, and took medicine and went to bed, hoping to feel better the next day.

6th december, Sunday.

Alhamdulillah, the fever's gone but was having a sore throat and terrible cough. I didn't let my sickness get over me and still played badminton that evening. hehe. Initially, my parents planned to go back home with two of my brothers at night but since my mother was feeling unwell, it was postponed to the next day. I got the chance to go to the restaurant since I was feeling better. All of us went to the restaurant except for my mom and grandma. It has been a year since the last time I was there, and the food's getting better. It was delicious. Yummy yum! I ate garlic and cheese naan and slurp some tomyum soup that my father ordered. Just drank tea as my throat hurts. huhu. The juices are nice too! If any of you guys are coming down to KL, do drop by Shabistan restaurant at wangsa maju KL, near carefour wangsa maju. Sempat pula promote. hehe. Although some of the orders came quite late, the food was superb. burp, alhamdulillah.

7th december, Monday.

The day my parents went home. They had to go home as my brother is home alone, and he is 17 years old. -_- It was a pity because my aunt's family was planning to go on a holiday somewhere in Malaysia. They headed home in the afternoon and it's left with me and my brother who had just finished his o levels. It's time for us to enjoy! woohoo~~~
Although it's still uncertain that we'll be going there but I just hope for the best. It's the place I've never imagined that I'll be going that soon. It's like a dream.
At night, it's confirmed that we'll be going there, and we'll depart early in the morning. The girl's room was like tokang pecah! It's like the place had been ransacked to the core. Me and my cousin shared a luggage. I was really excited. I really miss nature. Can't wait to be there! =D

To be continued...

It's quite hard recalling much and i'm tired typing.. hehe. So wait for my next entry post aites!! =D

That's all from me for now.

and i'm lovin' life!

salaam everyone!!

I just can't believe that I'm already having my holidays. It's great to be away from home for some time as I know that my chores and work in Singapore is waiting for me already. Love staying here but misses home quite as much. It has been 9 days since I'm away from home and I can't believe how time flies when it's the holidays. -_-

There's a lot to talk about but not now. hehe. I'm still not sure when I'll be back, so if there's any urgency get my malaysia number from murni aites!

Hmm.. been thinking if I should visit UIA these few days, but I'm not sure if I've the time. I'm already in KL, so it's better if I drop by.

There are a few things that I haven't done yet, including shopping!! hehe.. Although I've been coughing like hell until I lose my voice, I'm glad that I'm happy and living life to the fullest. Have a great time everybody!

That's all from me for now. =)

moving on

salam

Everything seems so sudden. My life in mwti has really come to an end. When I entered mwti last week, there was a surge of feeling. The building may be quite empty, but, it was a place where a lot.. and I really mean a lot of things had happen. This is the place where I've known a lot of interesting people and where i've mature to become a wiser person ( although sometimes I get really confused with life). Although it is hard to admit, I do miss mwti, especially the students and teachers. The time has come to move on to the next phase of life. It is even more harder than before. Well, Insya Allah, He will guide me to the right path that I should be.

I miss studying in the school environment. I just can't believe it is almost over. Planning to do a lot of things already, but will it be fulfilled. I really hope part of it will be fulfilled. We can only plan what's best, but it is up to Him to decide. i should not give up without trying.

Now, I really miss the bond that I had with fellow mspians. It is true that the bond will get stronger if we stayed together, even for a short while. Medan was the most memorable trip, and although not all can make it, we are still close as ever. All the best in life my dear mspians.

I don't know what's wrong with me today. Was feeling damn nervous until I was shivering. Soo unlike me. Last paper was okay, like the rest. Not too easy, not very hard. This is what you called the A levels, no easy way out. haha.

Will be going for holidays pretty soon. Not sure for how long. Depends on my mood, I guess. Want to destress not only from studies, but from other factors that make me stress. Ouh and I need to try my very best not to gain weight during the holidays.. huhu. If there's anything, just email me. I will still be online some of the time. =)

I need to accept the reality of things, the reality that I'm nobody to some, and be grateful for the things that I already have. I should not expect too much and not be selfish. The reality is I can't have all the happiness, I need only some of it and forgo some of it. It was never mine in the first place.

Ya Allah, Engkau tenteramkan jiwaku ini, dan hilangkan segala keresahan di dalam diri ku ini. Ku harus Redha dengan ketentuanMu.

That's all from me for now.
