Different kinda eid

When I mention about family it does mean the whole family. From my grandpa, grandma, aunty, uncle, cousin, mom, dad, siblings and all that.

Each year, our eid will be like cooking the whole night and go to each other home to check each other cookings and also do some chit chat till dawn arrived. We never slept at the night of eid. We enjoyed ourselves so much together and this continue till noon of first day of eid in which our energy started to deteroriate and we all would eventually go to sleep. And this goes on till end of a month of hari raya. Haha. That's my family. We are never too tired to spend time together all the time. 

This year eid will be so much different from the year before. Why? It's because we wouldn't have our youngest aunty whom we call "mak su" together with us this year. She is a very noisy person, havoc kinda person and she will be the one who makes our eid the most happening each year. She likes to tease everyone which will make our eid even merrier. 

Well, this year she will have to work overseas which started before eid. She must be very sad. Working at a place that will take 23 hours flight and thousand of kilometres separating us and I hope she is going to be just fine. I know she's going to be fine as she's the best anyway. Surely, everyone will miss her. 

Secondly, my cousin who is studying abroad will also have to be away from us during this eid. This is his first eid away from us. Be strong dude. I know you can do this. Haha. Well, he's a man so not quite worried actually. He'll manage to find his friends and go have fun with them. I know still it wouldn't feel the same but to get the best you have to sacrifice first right?

So to both of them, be strong. Cheers! We still have skype. Well, seriously I will have to learn how to use that first. Teeheee.. 

But whatever it is, the experience is what worth the most. That's the thing money can't buy. So just keep going. Though you guys are far from us but you will always be in our heart. Don't you ever doubt that. Sob sob sob.

Btw, even I myself will be back on the night before raya itself. This year we all need to struggle. 

                                         Ohana!



2014 hari raya with mak su. 

My love my tarzans. Add another one this year!

Life is trying to teach you something

Hello there! Sorry for the long wait. So, here you go.  Here come an urgent story after a reflection made few weeks ago. I just felt the urge and the need for me to write and share this. As you know, I have been working in a pharmacy for quite sometimes now. It has been around 4 months I guess. Though definitely, I am extremely tired and I got no time to pamper myself, it gave me priceless experience. It’s a place that taught me to appreciate people, trust (this one I’ve got some issue with it too. Trust is basically not easy. It’s build over time so work hard to gain it) and respect people no matter who they are and their social status or educational background.  Initially, it feels like there’s nothing I can gain from working there. Not that I believe in all those supplements can help with diseases. These days, when I felt like I was doing a thing without having a benefit, I would start to do my own reflection. It was like a homework to me. Thank you to that one...

What's new?

How ’s me? Life has been great so far Alhamdulillah. Indeed, when you let go of the painful things that you ’ve been holding on for so long, you’ll be at peace and you’ll be happy. Being dependent on a person is not good, you’ll feel lost once they are away. “What’s meant for you will reach you even if it’s beneath two mountains. What isn’t won’t reach you even if it’s between your two lips.” And so these words heal. Always. Anyway, Let’s start. I have been occupying my holidays doing a few things at once right now. It all started as a volunteer with the Sarawak Children Cancer Society (SCCS) at the hospital. There, I knew a few doctors and pharmacists. These doctors enjoyed dragging me around in their rounds and clinics but I don’t really haha. So, these doctors has got a lot of on hold project for the community that they wanted to arrange but they ain’t got no time for that. Thus, they asked me to arrange it for them. This year, it was about the health fair project 2...

A book in the mind and heart.

The people you met in life. You have got so many reasons to welcome them into your life and at the same time be willingly to open the door for them to walk out once the time has come to an end.  I always wanted permanent people in life. I used to have this phobia towards people leaving me after I became so dependent on them. (So close friends, please, stick around) It took me years to learn and accept that people comes and goes. I will always need to have those people who I can turn to even though we don ’t cling so tightly as I believe we always have dreams and achievements to go after in life so that whenever life is hard or when I stumble and fall,whenever I need a helping hand or an ear to listen, I know who to look for and to turn to. Despite that, knowing different people at different stage of your life is different. After all, I always believe in temporary people that came in our life to teach us something, once their purposes are done, they need to move on and so does ...
