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!

Randolph wise words

"I was trying to put myself in a bottle that would one day wash up on the beach for my children. If I were a painter, I would have painted for them. But I am a lecturer so I lectured. - Randy Pausch" These days, I used to spent a lot of time in the Book Xcess bookstore alone during the weekends. There, a lot of books are old and 'ancient' but still are practically useful for the current time. I coincidentally found this non-fiction book by Randy Pausch. It was displayed at the most top shelf with the words best selling books written on the shelf. 5 million copies of this book has been sold out. So, I thought there must be something interesting about this book. I just grab it, took the stool and sat at one of the corner to read it. Once I read the book page by page, it was so addictive that I couldn't stop. Each sentences struck me right in the heart. By the time I realized I should stop and just buy that book, I have already read half of the book. It was t...

Have you been there?

Assalamualaikum again! I like to observe people. Their life. Comparing it with my life. I learn to be grateful by doing those things. Really. When I was in the hospital during my clinical days, it's one of those days that all of the students need to go to the hospital and learn something from a very busy and occupied doctor( Sometimes, I felt like I'm a burden to the doctor, lol, but yes.), I always like to observe the enviroment. It's because the enviroment in the hospital is totally different from elsewhere that I had went to. Only people with problems come to the hospital. If you have that kind of opportunity to go to the hospital,have a look at those people in the eyes. Trust me, you' ll be able to feel the empathy. Sometimes, I saw parents who bring their child to the hospital with the intention to cure them. People who bring their mom or dad to the hospital just to see their parents as healthy as before. But sometimes, no. They can't get what they want. ...

The littlest things in life.

Trust are not meant to be taken for granted.   It is from an event of life that a person limit their trust to his/her circle of human of choice. As for me, I may be nice to everyone but my trust is not easy to be gained. Please appreciate people when they trusted you. The most important trust that you can never take for granted is from your parents.  For me, I appreciate when my parents trusted me more than anyone else. Whatever stories that they heard from other people, they choose to listen to me first and I can never exchange that with anything. Feel blessed and grateful for not all of us are given that specialty. Respect your parents as they are the person that should earn that without attempt. When they give you the freedom, do not misused it. It was not easy for them. I guess you will one day understand when you are in their shoes. As a daughter, I know I am not that good but whenever I am deciding things or doing something, the  people that will appear firs...
