December 2010

How time flies, I have been coughing almost one month since last month. When you are not in good shape (coughing and coughing) and feeling like being choked- something wrong somewhere- it also as a reminder health, time, young, rich..all is temporary, what remains is hereafter- akhirat!
Today, I was admitted to day care in KPJ Hospital Kajang, alhamdulillah, endoscopy was done and nothing serious was found. Approaching the age of 40-reminds of the importance of health.
Attached is the pic of my youngest son!

Happy birthday, my sis Syadiyah

Today, 14 December 2010- it's my sis birthday- my sons call her Che Da. Miss her a lot. She has been away to complete her PhD thesis. Insya Allah, by next year, we hope to have a family gathering

Eidul Adha 1431 H

How time flies? Alhamdulillah, Eidul Adha comes again. It reminds of me of sacrifice not only to our beloved family only but also to our dinn- religion. Islam. Sacrifice is simply said but to apply what you have said sometimes is more difficult. My son, Fatih enjoyed watching the slaughtering of cows. However, he says NO to meat. Only chicken. For him, nasi ayam is the best!
I pray to join the hujjaj in the next hajj. Insya Allah.

Syawal 1431 H

This is my second year celebrating Eid Mubarak after pursuing my study in England. Alhamdulillah! this time celebrating with my sister, Angah, my bro in law - the only so far, and their son, Thaqif. They were abroad for almost four years. A meaningful Eid Mubarak, gonna miss Ramadan a lot!

Ramadan kembali lagi 1431 H

Alhamdulillah, for giving me the chance to celebrate Ramadan kareem - fasting month. Again it is not easy to add our amal. being a mother to a small boy, I think you can guess what would be the scenario. I always remind myself not to create excuses but try our best to add our amal during this blessing month. Yet, I have the intention and I hope it would materialise soon, I pray that I have the opportunity ziarah Makatul Mukaramah and Madinahtul Munawarah soon. Insya Allah. How do I really miss that places.

The Belated Graduation Day 2010

Alhamdulillah, I managed to attend my graduation day at last. I was supposed to attend the graduation last summer 2009. However, due to my condition, I postponed it twice. Delivering Fakhri by operation was my first experience. Furthermore, I was worried about Fakhri as he was too small and H1N1 was badly reported in UK and Malaysia.

Mid year examination!!

Next week, my second son, Fatih is going to sit for his mid year exam. Then, Thursday off we go to Fatih's kampung- United Kingdom!!

Happy Fathers Day

19 June 2010- happy fathers day! As usual, we had our breakfast in Davies 30 minutes driving from our home sweet home in Bangi. After a heavy breakfast, just name it, roti canai, nasi lemak teh tarik, all kinds of tarik,off we go for window shopping- Mid Valley. My kids get stuck in Toys Story 3 stalls- at the end, they got stuck with colour sand!

When my son complained..

Complaints should be taken seriously if it comes from a small kid, like my second son, he complained that he had headache and while complaining he also cried which showed his intolerance with the ache! Ya Allah! What should I do as a mama?
I gave him panadol for kids ( 2 tablets as his age is now almost 6 years)..and also his usual medicine for his running nose!

Don't look back..:)

Jangan pandang belakang that's the translation in Malay language. What happened in the past few years was eye opening and jaw dropping..just kidding. Perhaps I am amazed with my study leave- yups just focus to study. Don't get me wrong. Seeing my three sons growing up is a wonderful experience and sometimes thought provoking. Why? As a mama, I have to think not only from an angle but of course, different aspects in making decision about them. Which school perhaps is better for them? Yet, we never know whether it is in the best interest of them or not. Hopefully, at the end of the day, it would be fruitful experience not only for them but also for me as a mother.

Chicken pox

All of sudden, (of course nobody plans to fall sick) Fathullah a.k.a as Fatih got his chicken pox! Luckily he managed to participate in his concert dedicated to parents. He prepared a mug of his own decoration and lovely card telling us his baba and mama that he really loves us! It is so cute of him..:) He has been on medical leave for one week and guess what? He is reluctant to do all his hand works like scribbling A B C ..hmm I need to be patient and creative with him I guess..May almost ends and we are looking forward to visit my grandma, nenek in Brunei. Here we come..:)

Jangan jadikan guru, pensyarah karier pilihan..hanya..

Kerana mendengar kerja pensyarah fleksibel, guru banyak cuti sekolah. maka, kerja ini jadi pilihan. Sedangkan kerjanya ibarat lilin yang membakar diri, yang menerangi orang lain. Banyak pengorbanan yang diperlukan. Bukan setakat mengajar, malahan menuntut kesabaran yang tinggi menangagi kerenah anak2 murid, malahan rakan2 sekerja yang macam-macam fiil. Dapat rakan sekerja yang supporting, understanding, alhamdulillah. andai kata dapat rakan sekerja yang jenis tikam dari belakang. rezeki lah tu. Apa jua kerja yang dilakukan, ingin ku pesan aduhai diri ku, ikhlaskan hati dan pohon keberkatan daripadanya. Hidup ini hanya sementara. Pokoknya, enjoy kerja!

Birthdays..

Alhamdulillah, celebrating birthdays with my beloved members of family.

It is not sex education, it is how to control your desire??

Well, for me, it is unfair if we ask the new generation to learn or to be exposed to sex education as there are some students who are really naive. What I would like to stress here is, why don't we introduce a subject of how to control our desire (nafs)? We need desire but how to manage it. Adults also would say, it is simply said but to put into reality, it needs a strong determination! Why subject on to control desire? Knowledgeable but without practicing it, it is useless. You keep on asking people to be good to others, but are you really "good" to others?

Am I listening?

hi, this me, Fakhri Irsyadi. Loves TV ads and listening to azan. Well, it can be therapy for those who really appreciate it. Me, I have a long way to go. Do pray I will be a good boy not only for my parents but of course, the Ummah!

March-April 2010

Al-Fatihah. My uncle Pak Abas passed away, he is the only brother from my Baba's side. Approaching April, it reminds me of my arwah atuk, arwah uncles (Pak Abas and Pak Long), Nenek Sohair, who had left us, May Allah bless them always. Miss them. (:

31 March Fakhri turns 1 year. He has started to walk. Quite early compared to his two brothers. I guess with Thaqif around, Fakhri has the motivation to walk and run earlier. In addition, his two brothers like to play with him.
May Allah protect them always in this challenging time.

Approaching one year

My little boy is approaching one year..:) I think I really admired the Japanese girl, Momo, Fatih's classmate in Playgroup in Keele University..and I guess that's why Fakhri, my little boy got Japanese look..:)

Awal Muharam and New Year

How time flies! It marked the 1431 hijriyah and a new year 2010. Alhamdulillah, we are given the chance to live and hopefully, we will be a better person as time goes by. It is a sad thing as we are getting older but it does not reflect in our actions.
Someone told me one of the characteristics of English people is hypocrite..and I have been observing too whether Malaysian society is also hypocrite after all, we were under British for quite sometimes. Just look your around you, people or friends that you meet, some of them might be so good in front of you but don't expect them to be also good at your back! Hmm enough of mumbling. New year new resolution? I think I have stopped making resolutions but I will make sure that I try my best to refresh my aims everyday! I guess that's better, let's pray everyday will be a better day for us as His servant in this world. It is the end that we are aiming! cheers for now
