Someone I love dearly

Today is my dad 50th birthday.

I'm a daddy's girl in a not-so-obvious way. Well, I guess I get everything from him from the physical look till the personality. My dad is a very thin man. No matter how much he eat, he will always end up in that size. Me? More or less the same. I usually eat twice of what my friends eat but I hardly gain any weight. He's also a very tall man. And so do I. A very tall, pretty woman. Please do agree with the pretty part. Hehe.

My dad is a very quiet man. He didn't talk much. He likes to listen more rather than be the one who talks. When doing work, you'll not hear anything from him. And so when there's any "issues" that happen in the house, mom would be the noisy one. My dad would just keep calm and wait until everything settled down. He would then approach us, talk to us personally and ask first what' s the problem. He'll come with a solution and a bit of advice so that we will not repeat the same mistake again in the future. Never did he screamed at us even once in my 21 years of life. Mom did though. Haha.

Dad is a very shy man. Hehe. That' s where I get that "malu - malu kucing" part of me from. So that's why on the day of graduation in MRSM, when I was asked to bring along one of my parent on the stage to receive a special award called anugerah sahsiah pelajar terpuji (funny. Yea I know I shouldn't get that. Haha. ) , I bring my dad along. Just you imagine how surprised he is.

Why daddy's girl?

My dad used to work in Singapore once. At that time, I was in my primary school. So every night, after calling him I would cry. I only stop when I sleep. So after that mom only decided to call him once a week. Haha.

If it' s my dad, ask everything that you want as long as he can buy it, he'll give you. You name it, everything he'll give us. From a barbie school bag till the handphone. Ermmmm, exclude car or house. He said that I have to work and buy myself the car and house so that I'll appreciate my own properties more. But rarely he'll decline our request.

That's my dad. To me, he is special in his own way. And I love him with all my heart.

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 ...
