Exciting vs not-so exciting

A lot of exciting things happening :

- A close friend is getting married to another friend. And glad to say I was the culprit who 'advertised' his a*rse to her....hehehe. Alhamdulillah .

-Another close friend is in love with another friend who is also a friend to the friend above. (paham?) Well, again, I was the one who brought him to her house and warned her not to go after him coz he had a gf earlier. (knowing how 'gatal' my friends can sometimes be and their taste in men....hehehe...just joking)

-My family is going to hold a wedding reception for my cousin this month too. All my relatives from Terengganu will be coming to KL. Can't wait to see everybody , and the food too.(my aunties are excellent cooks )



The 'not-so' exciting parts are:

- There is an 80% chance I will not be able to go and watch the girls play in the National and even the trainings on the coming weekends. I'm scheduled to work on Saturdays and we are also moving to phase 2 of the Academy.

-I got to pack my stuff alone and clean up the current apartment (managed to get a bibik to help). Target date is by the 2nd week of May to be completed (pack, clean and move out). I'm starting this Sunday.


Yes!!! Overall, I'm so excited to start moving in. The vendor called me and she said I could get the keys to the new crib and move in from 1st May onwards. Alhamdulillah.

Now......what shall I bring first since I'm only moving my things by car? Hmm....

1st round of kaki kambeng

Yes!! Today we had our 1st round of leg of lamb. It was a last minute planning.

See? Lamb wears net stockings too!

Can't wait. Air lioq dah start meleleh at this time. The smell filled up the whole of Hana's house.

With lots of vege underneath. We had swiss brown mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, leeks and potatos.

The empty table before food being served.

Looks different now with all the great dishes.

Aah!.This is my favourite. Requested Mimin to make it - she's the expert.

And dessert is a must. We had ice cream and konyaku jelly (the official dessert)

p/s: Ardy! This was what you missed.....hehehe....

The next round hopefully will be at my new crib, Insya Allah

Nice view, smooth drive

Friday night, I went for dinner with my bro. The view from outside the building where we had dinner was excellent.
I have always love the view of this building at night.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Look at this picture carefully.

And this one too.
And another one. I love this road.

This is the road that I will be taking once I move to my new crib. Yes! Alhamdulillah the journey to office will be shorter.

Same 'old' me

In between of not having enough rest (actually 7 1/2hrs is more than enough, its just that I'm not used to it), I have started to pack my things. (Yes habibi, I have!)

Well, I have not gotten the keys, not even any news about my new crib yet, but I target that I should be able to move in about 1 month from now. And now, since everyday at home I don't do anything else other than sleeping, I figure that I better start packing the things that I want to bring over but not using it for the for the moment.

Things like my pots and pans, the crockeries, my books, small electrical items are going in first. I just need to leave minimum items which mainly are my clothes. And this will help me to get rid of the things that WILL NOT be packed into the boxes. (loads of them)

Anyways, I think I'm a lucky person, alhamdulillah. One of the consultant that I'm working with now, previously was working with IKEA as their Interior Designer. Yup! That's right. I have hinted her that I might need her help to decide how to design/place the things/cabinets in my new crib.Nothing fancy; simple and smart, that's all. hehehe......

When Habibi was here, with his help, I also managed to get some big electrical items like the washer, dryer ,fridge and bed settled. They just have to deliver those items when I get the keys later.

I need to get some other things too- not that the current things can't be used. Some are starting to give problems like my iron, blender and kettle. Some are still ok like the rice cooker (since I seldom use them...hehehe) .This is also the part where I totally MOVE ON into a new life. This is it. I prefer not to bring anything that reminds me of the past. Oh yeah, I need to get an oven too. (to make my famous roast lamb leg....perasan sat)

New job.New crib. New things. New life. New future.
Same 'ol me.

I am so excited. Can't wait for THE DAY to arrive.

It has been a week....

Latest updates on what is happening in my life and the things that I do:

- It's been a week since I started to drive 120km to work and return. This will go on until I get my new crib (hopefully another 1 more month only). I am not complaining at all as this is my dream job - to do training ;-)

-I have a big tin of Danone's cream crackers in my car - just incase I get hungry during traveling to and return from work

-I also have a box of dates in my car (thanks to my love) all the way from Saudi to make sure I have 'dates' everyday when he's not here. (the truth is; the biscuits are not enough)

- I have yet to be located/trained at the LCCT even though I'm working with an airline (I'm soooo looking forward to this). Well, I work in the academy.

-I'm still struggling to adjust myself to the 9pm-6pm work schedule. (I love the 3pm shift earlier)

-Habibi now has to adjust his time coming online due to my new sleeping hours.

-I also need to drink a box of either milk or soya bean every morning ; to prevent from getting 'gastric attack' (I had a worst one last weekend)

-By the time I reach home everyday, it is just nice for solat, dinner , check emails and sleep. I wish there are more than 24 hours in a day and more energy to do more things.I have friends complaining I'm busy ( sorry....)

-I soooo love my new job as it allows me to meet A LOT of new people and teach and share my knowledge. ( a job dream by people like Ardy, kan? a classroom full of girls...)



And I only have 4 more weekends to be with the girls before the Nationals. I know I can't be there during that time but the least I could do is to prepare them.

Yes!! We did it again!

After screaming and shouting and cheering in the hot sun for the past 2 days, I am too exhausted to write ( I guess age is catching up..hehehe..). So I guess, some pictures of the event will be the best replacement temporarily - until I have the energy and time to write.

The annual PPM Southern Zone tourney was held in SMAP Labu, NS.

The girls - lining up before each game.

The game.

The free throws.

The coaches discussing.

Time out.

A short session by a special guy to help motivate the gals.

A special briefing y the head coachbefore the final game....against our 'musuh tradisi'.

During warm-up. "Gemuruh jiwa, semangat membara, dari puncak ingin ke angkasa...." was sang
THE GAME!


Trash them gals!!!

A satisfied face ......YES!

The teachers, players and R2V members.

Every body who came....including the SRIKANDIs.
CONGRATS DYNAMITES!!!!

I'll prepare you guys for the Nationals.....

p/s: I wish there is a miracle that would allow me to go for the National Level in Jitra in May. But I know...its impossible

Dreaming the whole day

I don't easily have dream or nightmares. Hmm....maybe once a year, yes.
But my life now today was like a dream.
Thanks to God.
I am hoping and praying hard that this dream is for real and is here to stay.

My 1st day at job - was like a dream which I never dare to dream.
Will update more soon.
Once everything is settled and calm.
Promise.

The scariest teacher among all...

On Friday, before the game, I met somebody. All of us had to wait for the bus at Block B, as usual. As I was walking towards the block, I saw a lady in baju kurung and tudung, turned to me a few times. She looked as if she was not sure whether to smile to me or not.

I knew who she was from the 1st look. I looked at her and I wasn't sure whether she still recognised me after all this years. But she gave me this "I know who you are - you look sooo familiar" look.

I went to her, and said "Assalamualaikum cikgu" and salam her hand. Whilst she in return said, awak ni....memang tak salah lagi. Cikgu ingat lagi. (mestilah dia ingat....I was always the one yang tak siap homework and tak paham apa dia ajar but too scared to ask questions).
She was joking and laughing through out our conversation. Siap guna ' aku n kau' lagi. Which really shocked me as the last I remembered her was cikgu yang paling aku gerun and takut ....

She also said that she remembered making one of my junior 'angry'. She said it was Tun*ku T*eh M*zni. She still remember the name. She said, "Aku tau dia marah kat aku. Tapi aku tak kisah. Panggil jugak nama dia". And she just laughed talking about it. She wonders if the girl still upset at her.

Hmm... I don't know about that. But what I know is, she is different now. How she treated me and talked to me 2 days ago was so much different than 17 years ago when she was my teacher.It really shocked me actually. Boleh siap gurau dengan dia. I guess at that time, she was still young, we were rebellious as students, and that definitely makes a 'great' combination. I'm happy that she still remembers me as the tallest student and not the one 'yg tak siap homework and tak paham2 lansung pasal Fizik'.Hehehee....

Well, she has a daughter in the school now. She should understand more and better.
Pn.Hazi*zah Haron, I'm glad that I met you and you accepted me as the rest of your student .

P/S: That's the final one. No more teachers in my ' hate or I wonder whether they hate me until now' list. Alhamdulillah.

A job ...somewhere up there.

Listen here girls. I came all the way from KL for this game. This might be the last game I 'coach' for this year as I've just got a job. A job that requires me to start this Tuesday 15th.

I cannot say no to this job as it is my dream job. Alhamdulillah. Memang betul ada hikmahnya on things that happened.

A job that gives me the priviledge to fly ......and travel more often after this. I hope....

Dynamites - Thank you for your prayers. I will make sure I'll find time to see you guys after this.

Slow done, LION?

This was what written for my horoscope for today in FB:

Take as much time as you need to get your presentation in order. If you've been meaning to do something to improve your life, now's the time to do it. There is no use keeping yourself in a rut; get out and experience all that is around you. It is time to slow down an intimate relationship.





Time to slow down an intimate relationship?? It is damn right. Not only slow down, I need to freeze it for a while!


p/s: How can I do that when LEO lives to love and be loved all the time?

The LIFE I've chosen

Is this the life that I want?
That was the question posted to me before he left.
As tears rolled down and not able to say a word; I just kept quiet.
In my heart I was trying to shut down and trying not to miss him.
Trying not to feel anything.
So that the tears would stop.

I don't know, to be exact.
I don't know what I want.
As a normal human being, I know I want everything.
Which is impossible.

Having him in my life for the past 1 1/2 years made a BIG difference.
Picking up the bits and pieces.
Made me forget of the bad things which had happened.
Teaches and motivates me to be strong.
Alhamdulillah.
But everytime he comes, and everytime he leaves;
I failed to stay cool about it.

What makes me sad?
I don't know.
Maybe what worries me is what if we won't meet again?
What if things happen ?
His advice was as long as 'panjang umur' we will meet.
But what ever is written by Allah in his books, there's nothing we could do.
Honestly, it scares every single bit of me.

I know he loves me a lot.
And I know he is a very responsible man.
And I also know he will be there for me.

Its just that he can't be physically with me all the time.
His promise was to visit me twice a year.
More than that? He said he'll try.

Until then, I need to stay strong.
I have to be strong.
I must be strong.
And now, I'm still lying flat on the ground.


I know, this is the LIFE I've chosen.
My daily prayers are to make me stay strong.
Everyday. Insya Allah.

I love you Habibi.

Why ? ;-(

I'm feeling purple today (blue is underrated)
My heart hurts; really bad.

Why do I still feel sad when I know its coming ?
Why am I still unable to control my emotions when I know this is a routine ?
When you asked me " Are you going to be ok?" I didn't reply.
Because I know, my heart is not going to be ok even though physically I still look tough.

Now, after flying high for a while, my feet is back on the ground.
Not only that, I fell flat on to the ground.
And for now, I just don't have the energy to stand up.
I just want to lie still.
Give me a few days.
Let me just hibernate for a while and mend this feeling.
I need it; as this is my routine everytime after you leave.

I'll come back with a better update. I promise.

p/s: 6 months for your next work visit is too long. I'm going to miss you...as always.

Peaceful for a while and happy later? Hopefully

I've been to a few interviews.


Good interviews.


Why good? I feel good after the interviews and enjoyed myself talking to the interviewers.


At some point, I've met 2 of the Directors of a company.


Until a friend asked - is it normal for people to be interviewed by the Directors?


I don't know.


Maybe its just the post that I'm applying for.


Maybe its that company's requirement.


Whatever it is, I had a good time meeting all these new people.





But for now, I'm tired.


I'm very, very tired.


Especially this morning I had to sit for a 2 hrs 'test' (which I did in 1hr 15mnts)


I really need a break from all these.


For next week, I just want to sit back for a while, breath in, and pray.


Pray hard to get one of these good jobs. (I owe some people leg of lamb if I do get a good offer)


Insya Allah.

p/s: Found out that Sa*m is still relaxing and will only start applying jobs next month onwards. I'm so jealous. I wish I could do that too.

I just wanna be here for a while. Aaahhhh......so peaceful.

Just a short update......

Last post ....24th March. Wow! That was about 10 days ago.

Well, some of you know that I'm jobless now but that doesn't meant that I'm free.

I've been busy.

Really busy.

What did I do?

Well for the past 12 days, I've been to JB, Damai Laut, back to KL, JB again, KL and now somewhere in the east coast.

And my schedule is full of interviews and coaching. The ones in JB are definitely coaching days.

Others - at times there were 2 interviews in one day!

And now, I'm starting to have sore throat and running nose.

I've got some photos which needs to be uploaded but too busy and tired to do that.

And this is the 1st time ever, I'm complaining that I don't have time to upload pics?

I'm amazed myself.

Just a 'teaser' of where I've been to in between the interviews.....more pics will come sooooon...
