NO IDEA

oh dear lil prof, thank u so much for reminding dis sister of urs that children's day os just few days away. OMG, it totally slipped off my mind ... I think it due to de busy-ness of Raya visitings and OF COURSE, F1 RACE.
anyway, thanks to Baba, I managed to watch it live from de track for 2nd consecutive yr :) best nyer, seating pon selesa .. Emad told me that Baba got it for almost a thousand dollars. it was a gr8 race overall & a gr8 experience for me too ... yeah my fav driver won! :p HE IS HOTTT okay!

ok2 enough of that, my problem is I DONT HAVE ANY IDEA on what to buy for my students (current and former). I received lots of gifts during teacher's day from dis lovely kiddos/teens so sincerely, I feel de need to give them back on their special day.
it has been my style that I never give out any gift during youth day so my students who are celebrating it will always receive their 'share' on children's day as well.
I wanna give them a thing which can be eaten and another which can be kept as memoirs. maybe I need to call dis company to enquiry bout making personalised keychain (that is what suddenly came to my mind) ....
I think I better start doing de preparations or go for a hunting mission! LH will be needed coz he is a man full of ideas ... haha he laughed at me upon knowing I forget bout dis day ... ape punye member, dahla carik barang tak ajak2 ...! :p

till de next post, readers!

BACK 2 BOOK

well, I'm still in Raya mood :) of course la kan, not even a week. BUT (here come de big but), I need to put aside my Raya 1st and can only 'resume' de mood when weekend is here ... its back to school time ok!
school works has been 'coming in' non stop but alhamdulillah, even with my busy schedule as well as getting ready for raya in de past weeks, I managed to submit all works before de deadline. lega! seriously, time is flying too fast and now I realised, time waits for no man :)
my 3rd yr degree programme (semester 1) lessons' period will come to an end soon so thats mean exam is coming! duuhhh! feel its just like yesterday I started dis sem...
I'm nt bragging here but I feel so lucky that since I was a kid, i never have much difficulties in accepting any lessons taught. many said I'm a fast learner, thanks God for de gift. even I take a kind of complicated module/course, I still manage to cope & overcome all de tough times and exams as well.
I dont deny there were times when I almost give up, but de non-stop supports frm mama & baba as well as their reminders that this is where my future lies and I was de 1 who chose my own course, it really helped me lots & provide me with more strength frm times to times till today. thank u mama n baba!

I saw many youngsters jalan raye, manis dgn baju kurung/kebaya/jubah & tampan berbaju melayu, bersamping & songkok ... I'm proud of them, walau mcm mana modern they are, they still know their root and budaya! :)
I also want to go jalan2 raye .,........

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI
'EID MUBARAK, MINAL 'IDIL WAL FAIZIN

maaf zahair batin andai ade keterlanjuran saya dalam bicara/tingkah laku & kekasaran yg menyinggung di blog saya yg tak seberapa ni.
moga bergembira bersama orang2 yg tersayang :)

1st day of raya was spent at Mak Long house (mama's eldest sis), was there for few hours, it was such a great times when u get to meet all ur family members whom u seldom see in normal days due to busy schedule of working/schooling.
didnt eat much though all de foods were so sedap coz my stomach was already bloated due to 'overdose' on gassy drinks intake ;) and I waas spoilt for choice on de kuih2 my aunt baked/ordered.
and yeah, masih dpt duit raye! sukerrrrr! :p

tomorrow I'll be heading out to visit all those older relatives, yeah it is when de REAL visitings start! de turun-naik bus/mrt/taxi, haha I can imagine de kecoh-ness :)

I need a rest,
wait for my next post ya!

RAYA EVE

all muslim family who celebrate HariRaya will gather 2gether on de eve of it to spend time together, eat and also bermaaf-maafan for those who practise it ryte after de 1st takbir. but for me, ever since 6-yrs ago, it has never been de same again and it will nvr be.
since my parents divorced, I forced myself to rush here n there in order to be fair to both mama n baba. it has been de imprefect raya eve for me every yr where after breaking fast on de last day of Ramadhan with mama & lil prof, pray with them and listen to de takbir while seeking forgiveness, I'll rush to meet baba at his place. I'll spend a couple of hours chattin with him, eating de raya dishes and kuih as well which mama nvr fail to give him annually. then will seek forgiveness frm him (that always de most touching part) and I'l get back home 2 do all de final touch-up with de preparations.... its nt easy to please them both :(

I miss de old times ... where baba with his nvr ending jokes which irritate mama, de kecoh-ness among us while doing de preparation and so on!
I'm glad that I still have them both (along with lil prof) but when u can be with either 1 of them ONLY at a time, it'll nt b pleasant, people.

INDONESIA

oh well, dis past few days, local sports' news was filled with de stories of de national team football player leaving de local in league to seek a better playing experience in Indonesia Super League (ISL). I cudnt deny de fact that de latter attracts more fans/crowds if compared to de local league where attendance could be as low as less than 500 spectators whereas in ISL, u'll get more than 10000 people watching u live at de stadium :) its a dream for every soccer player to play in front of big crowd. on top of that, u get a better salary and those extra needs like house and car equipped with a driver.
so our local players who are confirmed going there real soon are de trio from Tampines (obviously I'm sad with their departure); Mustafic, NAS, Ridhuan along with Baihakki frm Geylang while Precious (Woodlands) will leave after de 2009 season end.
Mustafic & Bai are joining de orange of Persija Jakarta while NAS & Ridhuan are joining Arema Malang. Precious' new club will be Sriwijaya.

Tampines stags are still in de race to win de league title but de departure of its' 3 important players to ISL along with Sutee who is joining an Australian based club, their title challenge will receive a huge blow.
I'm fully aware de team has more than enuf player but to REALLY fill in de boots of those who already left/leaving, that is de real challenge. it'll be no easy task for de team. pity them.

no personal related feelings issue on why I'm so sad on Mustafic's departure, its all about losing an idol from a team u deeply support for years. ever since I started to support de stags in 2004, de year coach Vorawan took over de team (who later on proved many critics wrong and goes on till now to be de longest ever coach to remain in stags' hot seat), he has been there. he has always been de rock of stags' midfield and also de solid rock in defence when he shifted posiition. and just imagine, after 5-yrs, he is leaving. I'll be cheating myself if I say there are no sweet memoirs and that made my tears keep flowing down my cheek.
but for de better sake of his career, I wish him all de best in ISL.
u'll be missed, captain! and I'll miss ur lil Ajna as well ;)

till de nx post, readers,
take care!

ON DE BUS

dis yr's Ramadhan has been a real challenge for me so far, dis fasting month I need to bear with lots of stuffs. seriously, I always pray to God to provide for me strength in order to survive all dis :) alhamdulillah, I still manage to stand and still in healthy condition.

lessons are not so kind to me, tight scheduling, loads of assingments/projects and so on, though I have an off day on friday. all de 4 schooling days end at 6pm, dats nt include de days where I have teachings to be done.
dis yr marked de yr where I seldom get to break-fast at home, seriously. where I break my fast? on de bus :) kesian kan .. dah mcm pelarian! but I'm so glad that I have my dearest bestie; Wak Achan, who is always by my side. he is a bestie, a brother, a course/class mate! having him as a companion is really a bless, at least I'm nt alone in breaking fast on de bus.
biasela, on de bus we usually drink and have some quick bites/light snacks then when reached home, makan pon ala kadar je due to de tired-ness.
didnt get 2 do terawih as much as last yr too! seriously I reached home at 7+, mana nak mandi, makan, maghrib and bla bla bla, time is insufficient.
setakat buat ape yg termampu jela, yg penting nait di hati kan.

ok I think I should end here, have been complaining non-stop,
