Feeling enough of everything!

Salam all!

Sambil layan Google News, sambil cuba menulis blog yang makin tebal habuk dan sawang. Lunch hour hari ini memang Nad nak cuba update blog kesayangan. Few days, gastrik melanda, even now pun perut sebu jek.

Apa yang menarik this year? This month?
This year, Alyaa' dah nak UPSR. So, starting this month until September 2017, schedule dia akan penuh dengan kelas tambahan in school dan more revisions at home (hopefully!)

Kesihatan Nad masih dengan ups and downs. Degil taknak pergi fully checkup. Maybe soon lah. Sekarang nak kena fokus dengan current life. Cari duit dulu, and survive every day of my life. Impian macam mana?
Nama pun impian, kena simpan kemas dalam hati ini, sebelum direalisasikan suatu masa nanti, in sha Allah.

Checklist tahun ini:

  1. Settle study-loan.
  2. Travel
  3. Terus improve myself
Dan pastinya nak jaga kesihatan diri sendiri dan keluarga tersayang.

Goodbye IMU!

Assalam...

It was not easy to bid farewell to a place where I had so much memories. Everything that allowed me to grow and become who I am today. Of course it was not easy to go through some experiences I had in IMU but I guess it worth the journey.

Don't expect a long post to summarize my experience in IMU, but even the full story should remain undisclosed as it is needed to remind me that to become a better person is not an overnight work. 3 years in IMU taught a whole life worth of experiences.

I would love to thank the Almighty for giving me this chance to realize what I can do for me despite what people planned for me and today I can turn back and smile.

I would also want to thank my family, especially my beloved husband to blindly believes in me no matter how life was until today. I wish all the happiness possible in this world and hereafter for him. I love you sayang!

I want to thank all friends since primary school, secondary school, pre-diploma, diploma and colleagues who always there for me when I almost gave up at times. I wish the best for everyone.

Last but not the least, a million thanks to all lecturers in IMU: Mr. Alex, Dr. Nicole, Ms.Zuhrah, Dr. Abdoul, Mr Sara, Prof Menke, Ms Sam, Dr Ke, Ms Nurul, Dr Jana and few more lecturers from another faculty who taught me in IMU.

Learning is to me not only to get certificates or to get good jobs, but to remind me how important every single person that landed their roles in my life and how much they contributed along my journey to the finishing line. I truthfully know that with just thanking them is not enough but I pray that God will bless them in anything they do throughout their journey in life.


p/s: I am so grateful to graduate on time LOL... till then
xoxo... luv ya all!!!!!!

Hello Semester 9!!!

Pejam celik pejam celik dah hampir ke penghujung perjalanan degree Nad. Pelbagai cabaran dan dugaan sepanjang pengajian Nad di IMU dan most of the time Nad pancit dan bangkit semula sebab Nad sedar, nasib Nad dan masa depan Nad hanya Nad yang boleh corak dan bentuk selain doa dan serahkan pada Dia.

Hari ni, Nad berjaya menyudahkan Semester 8 Nad dengan presentation about Nad punye experience throughout Industrial Attachment a.k.a Internship. Hopefully semuanya dipermudahkan dan Nad dapat buat terbaik untuk semester akhir Nad nanti.

So, untuk semester akhir ni Nad ada 3 modules dan satu thesis untuk disiapkan dan barulah Nad bergelar siswazah.. cewahhhh In Sha Allah... Well, banyak yang Nad akan rindu dan geram dengan IMU tapi di sinilah Nad menimba ilmu baru dan amat bermakna pada diri Nad.

Sepanjang pengajian Nad, banyak Nad belajar dan banyak peristiwa yang mengubah perception Nad dengan life dan diri sendiri. Nad belajar sayangkan diri sendiri dan belajar tentang priority sebagai manusia dan yang penting Nad sedar Nad bukanlah Superwoman yang ada super power yang mampu dalam segala perkara. Human was born with limitations.

Please pray for Nad dapat kekalkan pencapaian cemerlang untuk semester akhir ni. Nad tak sabar nak plan life after dah graduate. Nad nak fokus dengan keluarga, especially membantu Mr A dengan online business dia and also Alyaa untuk menempuhi UPSR tak lama lagi tu...


Till then...

"We might hurt ourselves and others throughout life, but no one will live this life as you!"

Last week of Internship in Living Hope!

Aloha!

Dah hampir 3 bulan Nad intern di Living Hope. So many things happened and learned from this internship. Hopefully Nad dah beri yang terbaik buat semua. Sepanjang menjalani internship, Nad banyak buat reflections. Either about the internship itself or many things such as life, relationships and even death. Banyak perkara yang Nad kenal dan belajar sepanjang 3 bulan ni. With no classes, no IMU, no classmates and nothing, Nad rasa perbezaan yang amat ketara dengan hidup. Many questions popped out eventually dan Nad seolah-olah nampak what I want to be sooner. I DON'T WANT TO WORK again, anymore. Maybe nak tolong Mr A berniaga online or if possible I really need to work pun, Nad akan pilih the place yang better than what I normally had before.
Meaning, Nad nak cari tempat kerja yang ada colleagues yang lebih daripada 3 orang. No ad-hoc tasks all the time. No one will take advantage of me yang SANGAT SUSAH says NO to anyone. I always end-up doing others' tasks and not relevant tasks.

However, I know bukan senang nak dapat apa yang kita minta. So many people yang berjaya bertahan lama sebab they are so strong mentally and Nad sangat salute those people and really hope Nad akan jadi macam mereka kelak. One sweet day! So, 23rd September nanti last day Nad at Living Hope. 8th November pula Nad akan jadi volunteer for their Charity Bazaar di The School, Jaya One. Well, paling tak sabar nak masuk IMU dan habiskan semester akhir Nad, In Sha Allah.
Sedih pun ya sebab tak pasti apa yang Nad akan buat after this. Nak sambung belajarlagi pon ya tapi nak kena kumpul dana sebab niat nak guna own money for Master and PhD. Wah sangatlah over cita-cita Nad but god willing, who knows?!

So, stay tuned!

Day 4 of September 2016

Dear people,

So today is the 4th day of September and I supposed to be working and guess what?! I did not! I have a day out after having late breakfast or should I say brunch with my elder sister, Kak Ngah and her children and my Along's eldest son, Kimie at Kedai Bubur (actually the stall's name is Pucuk Ulam Raja , ehehehhehehe).
After my sister went back to hometown, I went out with the Fatin (my sis' eldest daughter), Kimie and of course the silly Alyaa'. First, we went to CIMB since I had to deposit my so-called internship allowance. Here is where I started my clumsiness when the cheque went into one stranger account since this bugger didn't cancel her transaction and I with machine-blindness inserted my cheque into the slot. Blah! :(
Then it will take me 3-4 days before the cheque being sent back to my home address.

After that no-so-cool event, we continued our outing plan to IOI City Mall, just to have drinks and then I suddenly came out that we should go to KLCC, for the sake of going to Kinokuniya (silly me, I know!). And after terrible jams away, we made it to KLCC with of course a war to find parking, lols.

Spending 1-2 hours in KLCC before we decided to go home finally coz Fatin was feeling damn sleepy after no break for her continuous shift at work. Well, being a considerate aunt I am (always am) we went home and the one who actually passed out was me, for hours till 8-9pm.Ahaks! At least I managed to get me a notebook and a set of post-it notes at Kinokuniya.

I spent hours till 3am reading my "I Heart Hollywood" before hitting the sack. Owh, I hope tomorrow is another good day please!!!!!

The last month of Internship

Bismillah....

Time flies really fast nowadays. Or maybe because I don't really bother much about the time or maybe because I'm too busy with everything at work?! I'm not so sure bout that. Most important thing now is that I wish and pray this will end nicely and everyone is happy.

In 3 weeks time, I will end the internship weeks in IMU with others and I really miss IMU and the hectic days there. I love being student and I can't imagine just yet to be working again for the time being. Am I too selfish? Am I still immature turd to be thinking that or not to be thinking of working now?

Oh crap! I just want to enjoy life as it is not like I'm having forever to be regret of living like a programmed doll. Oh please, not again.
As for now, I want to restructure my life back and be happy with my present before I ever worrying about my unknown future. Sounds like a plan - yay or nay?!

For my first step on being positive human being, I will surround myself with good and kind-hearted people who won't have time to be pretentious human being just to be seen better than anyone else.

Been reading good books recently and I tried my best to apply good tips for my current way of life and not to compare my life with others especially those who seems to be so dramatically pretentious.

Hope to write more soon. But for now, just a quick sharing about my internship experience in Living Hope:
 Working was never ever will be my forte and even though I know how hard I work to accomplish every task given, nothing could compare to acknowledgment from those who you helped a lot in the process. But to struggle with daily task and the need to satisfy everyone, working is far from easy. Maybe I made it seems like I was too easy to be told to do everything and took all the blamed and left the credits to those who just good in giving orders; then I'm guilty at charge. Even in my personal report, I lost every important details to tell but I guess, this is the price for me to pay for being easy.

See ya soon!

Ilalliqa'

Goodbye Semester 7!!!

Bismillah...

Alhamdulillah, after almost 3 years of sacrificing period, I could finally pass my second year and there are only 2 more semesters left before graduating. I should thank my husband for his unconditional supports; financially & morally. Also to the family, lecturers and friends.

I realize that doing something that I chose from the beginning really worth everything in my life. I won't say I am best at doing this, but at least I'm doing this whole-heartedly. No worries about getting scolded by anyone, no worries of being judged and no worries about failing!

IMU taught me many new things. I would not appreciate anything more than the things I had now if I don't do this. I started to miss IMU and the people attached to it. Soon enough, I will be leaving this University and start new life without assignments, datelines and traffics (I wish!).

The same feeling I had long time ago when I was about to finished my Diploma in UiTM Shah Alam. Every day I kept thinking on what to do after this, and how to survive without going to university, to classes, not meeting my classmates and the list was endless. Now, what should I do after finishing my degree (In Sha Allah!)? Should I accept the offer* or not? Should I just be a stay-at-home mom/wife? Should I apply for new jobs?

3 years ago, I never planned for this moment at all. I might be known as someone who basically well-planned but seriously, I never even think of finishing my degree and moving on with normal boring life! Well, it's not totally boring but still, you might agree if I say life without anything to accomplish is darn boring!!!!! At least for me!

I will start semester 8 tomorrow. I hope for the best and everything will be just fine for me. I really want to have good experience during my internship period and expand my network of friends and colleagues. May Allah ease everything, In Sha Allah!

p/s: It's still Ramadhan, and time is running so fast. 10 more days for Ramadhan to leave us! Please pray for my journey in this! xoxo
*indicates secret offer...lol

It's Ramadhan

And I totally forgot to write about it..... :(

It has been a week of fasting and I was too busy doing some planning stuff for my Industrial Attachment and also preparing meal for breaking fast! Well, I just happened to read some blogs and suddenly I realized I did not post anything yet since finishing my exam last week. So here we go!

Today is the 8th day of Ramadhan. Nothing much is happening in my life except the fact that I am too busy building up some networks for my online business and also getting ideas for the meal plans throughout Ramadhan.
I will be busier starting on next month due to the Industrial Attachment and also other life plans. I just hope everything will go smoothly and nothing major happens to the plans. I always make mind promises that I will be more active after exam in blogging or maybe starting my own business or personal vlog. I don't know how to juggle with all homework and businesses, but I never underestimate my will power to try everything first before giving them up!

So, I hope Ramadhan will go on smoothly this year and Selamat Berpuasa [HAPPY FASTING!!] to everybody. Please leave a comment [or more] if you guys want me to blog about anything :)

p/s: My laptop was reformated yesterday and many files lost! So sad.... including my The Sims.... There goes my gaming routine! :(

Kedai Makan Renggo Arrow

"Dah lama tak berjumpa, rindu rasa hati, inginku bertemu denganmu........." These are some of the lyrics of the popular song in 90's sung by the owner of the shop, Renggo with his band called Arrow. They were quite famous during that time with various hit songs and had many followers till now. After being 1st runner-up in Kilauan Emas [Astro's reality show], he involved in food business, and this shop was his new venture! I seldomly eat here before this and normally I love to eat the "char kuey tiaw" but sadly, that day the cook was on vacation and I had to choose another dish. This was my first try of Nasi Arab in normal shop [normally I eat Nasi Arab in Arabic Restaurant]. I would say the taste is quite okay even though the rice was not really smooth taste like original Nasi Arab but overall the taste of the dish was good and not that oily. SO those who would like to come here, the shop is just opposite the Puchong Permai's uptown! Near the T-junction with traffic light in Puchong Permai.

Review: Mbuji [boo:ji] Cafe


Hi everyone! Today I will share about my experience trying coffee in this cafe called Mbuji [pronounced as boo-ji]. This cafe has few other branches and the one I went to is in IOI Mall, Puchong. This cafe is situated on the first floor, just the opposite of Vincci, new wing of IOI Mall. With the theme of Africa with animals and the cosy seats, despite the small size shop, everything here is amazing especially the taste of the drink/coffee. You can try different types of coffee [beans] from various place, however, they will blend it with their house blend beans but the taste won't disappoint you at all. Again, if you are a coffee lover that has lower acidity taste, the coffee here is a must try one!





This is just caramel latte! The bitter taste is just awesome...... :)

And this is us! Me and Alyaa!

We were here initially not just for the coffee, but actually Alyaa had requested to watch Home movie after few days having fever and just staying at home... So, while waiting for the movie to start, we decided to hang out here first and we never regret that!!!! Or maybe just my pocket lor.....ahahahhahhahaha

Benci atau Cinta?

Bismillah....

It's Valentine's Day! Sambil mengunyah cekelat Hershey's [Milk Chocolate with Almonds' flavored], aku gigihkan diri nak posting something dengan theme of love and hate.

I don't celebrate Valentine's day, sabar yek, jangan sentap nak pangkah jek. Sebab post ini bukan kerana hari ini jek. Tapi sebab aku realized something about love, something bout hate/hatred. And I really have the urge nak share this. Harap jangan cepat melatah, aku bukan nak posting bersempena apa2 events pon. Just because....

What is LOVE? the definition? maknanya? is it a noun? is it a verb? is it an adjective? or is it all?
My definition of LOVE is simple. Love is something that give me the strength to fight for and never let it go away ! dalam bahasa kasarnya, cinta/sayang/kasih tu something yang kita tak senang2 nak give up. Biasa kita dengar, cinta itu is to let it go and if it is really for you then it will come back to u; itu BULLSHIT!!!!

What is HATE?
My definition of hate is that you won't regret if you let go of someone and never had the                 dream to get him/her back.

Mengarut kan? Yes, life is mengarut. To live is nonsense, to die is even worse! SHould I care what people think of me doing things I wanna do to make me happy? Should you care about people who don't worth to be in your life and to die for?

So, what is the most important thing then to care about?
It's your happiness! Because, even you listened to everyone's opinions and comments or even worse insults about you running your life the way you did; It's you who will live your life in the end of the day. It's you who will take the burden! No one I bet will stay and help you to get throught all the bullshit things, your life's waves and your life's tragedies!

Before you love others, try your best to love yourself first; because once no one is there to love you, you at least have you to love you!

So, I guess, being independent is not an easy task. Loving yourself is part of the rules of being independent. Yes, if you ask people who are happily in love or in a good relationship, they won't have the ability to tell the worst scenarios in relationship; but asking people who are deeply injured in relationships, you might get the right and real answers.

Judging people from what you feel, what you see is not  a good way to do. You might see only the surface of their lives, but do you know how they survived those kind of lives?

You might think marrying or engaging to the person with the same age or slightly older or younger from you is the greatest thing to do in YOUR life!
For some people [like ME!], marrying people with so much gaps of age is better for them; since I love to boss around and I can't survive a day with a spouse who is under my thumb! I need a MAN to tame my inner beast!

You might have deluded that people who got married with older guys were doing so because they are gold-diggers, searching for substitute love [no father since childhood!] or maybe they just simply have NO CHOICE!

Just because you came from an incomplete family, with no father who took care fully of you and your siblings, and some women took your father away from your MOM, it doesn't mean that the woman with much OLDER guy is a BAD WOMAN/ husband-thief!

Get a life! Because the world is not ONLY revolved around YOU. Millions of people are living on this very old earth too.

So, that's all! XOXO


 p/s: Spread love not hatred!

The most scary part must be the THESIS part. lol...
Then 4 more subjects:

  1. Social Psychology
  2. Intelligence
  3. Drugs & Behaviour

So, it actually 5 things to beat next semester. Please, pray for me too!!!! I'm excited and scared at the same time but I think, nothing is impossible for those who try their best, In Sha Allah....

Well, that's all for now!

Wish me luck for my Final Year.....


Thursday, February 5, 2015

It's tomorrow and I am so scared!

Bismillah...

Well, after tonnes of panic attacks last 3 weeks, and tomorrow, EOS 6's result will come out!!!
I am so scared and never ready to see the email and then to retrieve the slip at Academic service. OMG!

Well, I just hope for the best and the strength to get the best or the worst! Amin........

Every semester, I just start with so many hopes and resolutions in mind but in the middle of the semester I will start shaking a bit. I will then lose control of everything and mentally down.

I really hope to finish this journey and face the future as I planned before.
I really need to finish this journey and be proud about it, not for anyone else, BUT ME!
But, I admit that sometimes it is hard to pretend I am good enough and be able to get through each semester ALIVE.
I hope I could say goodbye to SEMESTER 6 and start my SEMESTER 7 with extra courage and spirit!

You know when to stop the bullshit !!!

Hi...

You know by your sacred instinct if someone is using you for their own benefits or they are really in need.
You know by your own cracked heart if someone is disposing you after they get what they want from you.

Yes, for almost 20 years I live knowing that no matter how hard I try to help people without hoping to get anything in return; people just go on using me.

Yes, sometimes I feel a bit useless but most of the time, I am blessed to know these kind of people in life; they teach me how to love myself more and beyond my love towards anything or anyone else.

So, to those who hurt me, this pain is my remedy for all the cracks and breaks in my soul.
This pain is the only way to teach me to appreciate others who truly love me for who I am and accept me just as grumpy I am.

To those who I feel disconnected, You might be no longer my loved ones or maybe my past friends, but without you, I gain many good things in life; thanks to you!


p/s: Those people who read this, please return back my belongings or if You can't at least do that; Just stay away from my sight and life! You have no space in my heart anymore!!!!

It's 5th Year !!!!





Bismillah....

Today is our 5th Anniversary. Untuk 5 tahun ini, I just want to thank you for always being the best pillar and supporter ever!

Untuk 5 tahun ini, I just want to say how blessed I am to be your wife and bestfriend.

Untuk 5 tahun ini, I pray for your health and kind heart to be able SABAR dengan my bads and goods.

Untuk 5 tahun ini, I just want to tell the world, how lucky I am to be your wife. I don't know what I did in the past to get you as MY MAN!

Untuk 5 tahun ini, I pray that we will be forever till JANNAH!

I LOVE YOU!

EOS 6 starts Tomorrow !!!

Bismillah....

Tomorrow is the day... I really hope that I can do my best after few weeks of preparing for the EOS week. Since I will be having back2back exam papers, 19 till 22 Jan 2015... 4 modules [2 morning papers + 2 afternoon papers] and listening to Taylor's Blank Space right now while writing this post - I'm so sure I don't want any blank space in my answer sheets for my EOS 6... LoL *ok lame joke* But please dear God, give me the best of the best-est memories for tomorrow and after..amin...

What to do after exam ends? I have no idea. Maybe I can go travelling. But still depending on my monthly budget. As long as I have good feelings after exam ends, than I should at least reward myself right? Maybe I will just follow my friends on their vacation or trips to anywhere.... MAYBE!!!

Anyhow, let's just pray for the smooth and successful EOS 6 everyone!!!!! Amin


p/s: I can't wait to say goodbye to SEMESTER 6!!!!!

New year resolution! It's 2015 !!!!

Azam Tahun Baru 2015


Bismillah.... 

Esok dah masuk new year 2015, so biasalah most people [tak semua] akan buat new resolution *some people renew jek lebih* for the new year. What is YOUR resolution then Nad?

Well, In Sha Allah *kalau Allah izin* these are my resolutions for 2015:

  1. Start travelling as a Backpacker *jimat sikit sebab student plus takder duit banyak*
  2. Beli laptop baru *yang lama masih mantap tapi physically in poor condition sangat*
  3. Surround myself with people yang akan mantapkan diri aku *better me*
Lebih realistik berbanding this year 2014, I know right??!!

So, hopefully I can achieve all of these things...


p/s: sorry la posting pendek2 sebab saya ni kurang idea..lol...tapi better short than never.Sekian..

How to make a Nice Latte!!!


I use this !!!

Ok... what do we need to make a home-made cafe latte:-

The ground coffee [if you don't have coffee grinder at home!] - Just choose which brand you love the most.

Paper coffee filter [depend on how many cups you want to make]

paper filters [I bought mine at Daiso! :) ]

Filter holder

filter holder [I bought mine at Daiso :) ]

Cup and spoon

Fresh milk [or any kind of milk that you love!]

Sugar / caramel syrup/ vanilla syrup [optional]

Hot/ boiling water !



Now, how to prepare the espresso shot? [the black coffee portion]

espresso shot! -sample-

Put 2-3 table spoon of coffee into the coffee filter and then insert the filter onto the holder.

Then put the holder on the cup / mug. Slowly pour the boiling water into the filter till 1/4 of the cup / mug. Stir the coffee powder slowly. Take out the filter and put aside. Now you have your espresso shot.

For hot latte: Before making espresso shot, boil your fresh milk [3/4 of the mug/ cup]. Makesure to stir it and do not over boil the milk. [Note: If you want your milk frothy, please use the milk frother - well I don't have that at home]. Then quickly pour you hot milk into the espresso cup. [Note: You can add any type of syrups you like or sugar, or just drink it just like that!]

Milk Frother [ Just buy at Daiso]

For iced/cold latte: Pour 3/4 cup milk into the espresso cup.... In the separate glass or tumbler, put ice cubes [as many as you want] then pour the mixture into the glass. [Note: You can add your favorite syrups or sugar first in the mixture before you pour into the ice cubes' glass.]

Taraaa!!! super easy, you can forget about other coffee shops' drinks. Just make by your own at home in your comfort space.

p/s: You can shop your favourite ground coffee at any convenient stores! I bought mine at Jaya Grocer!
