The short Getaway

My stay in Malacca for 3 days & 2 nights was definitely not enuff for me! Thou most of the time we spent driving on the 1-way roads in circles, we never lose our way.Unfortunately,my cravings for Peranakan food was not met.Traffic was horrible but the drivers there were willing to give way.All you need to do is to wave & smile.Besides making our rounds to the places of Interests, this I've to admit was not to my liking.I didn't take History during my sec school days therefore historical dates, landmarks, pple seems to be aliens to me.Ironically, we didn't pay much attention to hotspots such as the Mahkota Parade, Jonkers Walk but we merely set our targets on places where we can park conveniently.And have i told you that one of our cars was fined?Of course I admitted that we didn't park where it should be, but im furious that the parking attendant nvr pay much attention to a Malaysian-registered car which had even broke the law before us & was parked right in front of us.Whether its prejudice or a case of overlook,that, i wont comment! Well, i don't know for sure how fines are dealt there but i heaved a relief when we were given a 50% discount on the amount.Great isnt't it? Dah mcm shopping voucher.

As for now, lets just enjoy the slideshow?

SaLam AidiLadHa

Early in the morning Sumi & I set off to Kampung Senang for our volunteer work. We were there for a Christmas Party with e residents there.Besides interacting with the elderly, the children there also nvr failed to cheer us up.And today too, i learnt fishing.Dun believe me?

Last Mon, Syafiqah accompanied me to the service ctr to collect NUNU.While we were in the car....

Iqah : (Glancing at the auto gear box) Kak Jijah, what does L stands for?

Me : Guess lah..

Iqah : hmmpphh...i noe! I noe! L stands for Landing!

Me : ??!!! Of course not! Ape ingat aeroplane ke? L stands for Low speed.So, what do u think N stands for?

Iqah : Nothing.

Me : ??!!!! (I give up!)

Till then, to all my fellow Muslims, Salam Aidiladha!

Unbearable

Today I'm on leave again...and while waiting for NUNU to be serviced, here i am, at the library doing some research & browsing some books.Relax babe! When i thot im enjoying the serenity & peace, my Mom called.Hissh...ada je.

By the way,I can't wait for 22 Dec...really! Me & bro in law have sat down & planned our trip well.Yeah, for some this Melaka trip is no big deal but for me & family its something worth it since its been quite some time since we last travelled..till then..TUngguuuu...=D

Slumberland

Sleeping late is a norm to me.Sometimes i do find difficulties to put my eyelids together.But when im struck with sleepiness, i will even lie anywhere, just name it..even if its on my sejadah, just to get a 5 mins quick nap.

And now, i think, im like a zombie.Well, i was still at the airport after midnite! I was there to send off my aunt & uncle who will be performing their Haj dis yr.

Looking at them bring me back to the days when me & sisters sent off our parents to Haj.At that point of time i then realised that i'll miss them & had nvr spend enuff time wif them.I was always waiting for their phonecalls & just hearing to their voices will sadden me.

2 of my lady bosses are on leave today..how? hee hee...

Feeling Wonderful is indeed a Wonder

I couldn't help feeling uneasy since morning & i dunch noe why till dat alarm @ 0900 finally ticked off.I've forgotten to set the alarm off to mark one yr of dat date.Ouch!Why am i still feeling the pinch?

Spent my weekend at my cuzin's wedding.She looked wonderful & pretty even in her late thirties.Thou it was rainiing non-stop yesterday, dat nvr lessen the crowd at the reception.Even the Saturday crowd was superb!

Finally, the relatives' weddings were over but still i've not been stripped from my weekend driver title.This cuming weekend, i'll be gg over to my uncle's house for kenduri arwah and Sun will be filled will 3 wedding receptions.....Belum kahwin dah bnyk jemputan!

And finally, some pics to add color to ur bluey mon..(c'mmon guys..another few more hrs & it will be end of the day!)

Me, Aaliyah, Adilah (Aishah's adorable gerlz)

Just Relax

the theme for dis yr yr end party was 'Just Relax'. I must say dat the org comm were very creative to have such decos.Soothing to the eyes yah? Our group, the Happy Family, really enjoyed ourselves.We din care if we win or lose, the more impt thing, we enjoyed ourselves, rite gerls? Our grp won the 1st prize.Not much photos taken but let's make do of what we have okie?

At a campsite?!!

Tak cycling kat east coast, kat sini pun jadilah!

Yeah, lets get drunk!

Sumi, pulling e cork out of the bottle

Ain, feeling high oredi

Too much sorrow since i didn't win any of the lucky draw gifts

Disclaimer: Of course the drink was what u call...Sparkling Grape Juice. =))

In case anyone got panic to see us drunk..here's a cute pic with a cute boy & girl in it.

Melukut di tepi gantang~Aisyah

Di malam nan sunyi
Duduk ku termenung seorang diri
Di jendela sepi
Hingga dini hari
Ku menantikan kepulanganmu
Namun kata hanya sekadar
Tinggal kata-kata

Bagaikan melukut di tepi gantang
Begitulah aku di dalam hidupmu
Ada tiada tak memberi kesan
Hanya aku menanggung
Kerinduan

Dulu pernah kau katakan sayang
Ingin mendengar ku berlagu riang
Menawar duka laraku
Lupakan saja
Derita yang berlalu
Tapi mengapa dirimu kasih
Ibarat lalang ditiup angin
Kasihmu diracun oleh kata fitnah
Penuh hina hingga kini

Kau biarkan saja
Diriku menanggung sepi
Dengan irama dukaku yang tak
Bermakna bagimu

And I'm finally Back??!

Assalamualaikum wr wb...

Ni hao?

Vanakem!

hey,hey, i'm back! believe it or not?

Pple have been complaining dat i've not been updating my 3 blogs.com.C'mmon, dun blame it on me.Its either my workplace has blocked my blogger.com access or its just me, plain lazy to update it at home.

What has been happening to me lately? Fasting has been good.Gawd, i miss Ramadhan soo much.Will i walk through it again?Yeah, hopefully, with Allah's permission & grants, i'll meet Ramadhan again nxy yr.

My Grandma passed away too last Ramadhan.It was unpredictable.She was not diagnosed with any chronic illness yet she slipped into a coma before she passed away peacefully on 21 Sep 2007.Semoga Allah swt mencucuri rohnya ..ameen.Too much emotions swirled the atmosphere that day.Even she who deemed has extinct turned up dat day..and got the cheek to pull some stunt & created a scene?! I dun think she even deserved to be there.

Syawal dis yr has been different in one way or another.Besides not having my sis & bro in law in the same house anymore, the absence of my late Grandma did make a difference.

too much things to summarize eh?

Come december, too many wedding bells are ringing.Har har, not mine definitely.Its either i bcome the chaffeur or its my wedding invitation afterall.At least 2 wedding receptions per wkend.Its fun to oggle on those luxuriuos wedding decos & food.erhem.I nvr dream to have such gloried, burn-a-hole kind of wedding reception.Very subjective so lets not dwell on this.When my time comes, u'll see for myself.

I've been happy with my life.Alhamdulillah.Family has been great.Friends have been crazy & colleagues have been good.What more can i ask for?I've been getting the hugs & assurance of the odds that i've faced. Thanks to all.I couldn't have been better.

Relationships with the opposites have all always been a question mark.I dare not even smell the ground.Its too sudden for me.If i ever offended anyone & if u happen to stumble upon my blog, pls forgive me.Its not the matter of not forgetting the past but its the present & reality dat i cld not face.Trust me.Its still swelling inside, onli dat the emotions din show & the reality is hidden.

Ok, ok, im getting a bit draggy here.If u r still reading..then good.hee hee.Caught a movie last Sat wif my bestie & lil sis.Adik, whats dat show called.All i knew its like cannibalism.30 days...sumeting like datlah.Gruesome show but i like! Its been soo long since i last met her & gawd i miss her soo much.But i knew things have changed & we wont be like before.But trust me bestine, im always the same.Thats for sure..

ok, ok, its 0824..i better get gg.i'll update for more later!

One in a Million

One day, insyaAllah, we'll be like them too.I'm looking forward to another outing with them.=)

A Place where I call my HOME

Waahh, i guess some of u out there are either wearing white or red rite now.Or even if its not, it shld be in lighter shade of red, pink...the s'pore flag color! But not for me.I'm in PURPLE! but,dat does not mean i dun love my country hor!

I was @ Kampung Senang Day Care Centre earlier part of the day to spend some time with the old folks there.Thou i cldn't communicate much (since most of them were non-English speaking) but i did enjoy myself just now! We had orchid painting contest & to see that some of them were actually puting heart & soul on their artwork touched my heart.Most of the time i was taking pictures of everyone & everything.I promised to put up the pixs here once i got them from my colleague.

I'm proud to be a CEO (Community & Environment Outreacher)

To all- Happy National Day okie?

My Rights?!

Now, now, now, for those who have visited my grapevine webbie,some of u may have liked it but some of u may just have thrashed it aside.Please,please,please..for those who terribbly hate gossips or latest updates of whats in town,please (again!) I beg u to leave now.Especially to my frenz & contacts in multiply.com- i do welcome your comments but pls dun condemn me without further checking.This is my space so its up to me to post whatever i desire.By the way, all these pics & news were received by me either from my frenz or easier say-junk mail.Besides posting them in here, hopefully they are well kept & archived.

And you, who kept leaving me comment-i won't waste my time replying to u.In the first place, i dun intend to add spice to the hot soup so stop wasting your time leaving me demoralizing comments..and by the way, if you dislike my postings so much, why do u even care to look @ them?Yeah, i have no MAIN objective when i create this grapevine thingy; as I've mentioned earlier,its MY SPACE so please respect this fact.Thanks.

And for those who are scratching their heads, wondering whats going on-dun bother.Some pple are merely attention seeker.

Till then~

The Grapevine

PerMaisuRi

Aku rela hidup dengan mu
Demi bahagia...
Hanya Tuhan bisa memisahkan kita
( korus )
Di jaga dan lena kukuntum kerinduanku
Untuk mempersembah sayang padamu
Keharuman bunga tak seharumnya cintaku
Istimewa untuk sunting jiwamu
Bermula pandang pertama
Kau utuskan senyum mesra
Aku ingin seribu tahun lagi
Bersamamu...
( 1 )
Kubinakan mu istana
Aku rendakan bahagia
Dengan niat suci
Kaulah permaisuri
( ulang korus )
( 2 )
Sambutlah cinta abadi
Genggam dan semat di hati
Manisnya asmara
Kekal selamanya

Jiwang lagi si Jijah ni.I still remember this song-very well.Well, lets not dwell abt the past, the best thing~ do enjoy the song.

Till death do US apart

Panca Sitara?

Just this ONCE

And finally jijah is updating!

I've always wanted to post my entries with some pictures on it but i will ended up with plain, boring posts since i've kept forgetting to transfer the pics from my hp to my thumbdrive.Naahh..call it a lame excuse, i'll accept it.But trust me, its not bcoz of any memory failure but its the HIKMAH vcds which stole my already insufficient sleeping hours.Now, i'm at my final leg; another 1 more box of VCDs to go.The best thing is i will get both my parents to watch the sinetron with me but too bad yours truly will ended up lying down on one corner while the the happy duo (my parents lah!) lied comfortably on my bed.Hopefully my bed won't squeak itself to death lah. hee hee.

I'm told that i'm a person who likes to listen to one's problems.Sad enough, how i wish, when i lend my shoulder to others, i cld go a step further to wipe away the tears in your eyes too but at times some people prefer to build up a wall around them & cringe in pain-all alone.This is when i felt frustrated.Call myself a friend when I know some of my friends out there are stuck with some sticky stuffs etc & I'm not doing anything to help them??But hey, who am I for you to trust me with your problems & situations rite? To my friends out there, no matter how distant we are, i'm always the old azizah that you've all always known.Trust me.=)

To someone out there, i thank you for the effort made in trying to matchmake me with him yet my heart is still not prepared to accept anyone at the moment.Even if he has the qualities that i’ve desired all these while..i’m prepared to give it a pass.The heart is still aching & i doubt it will heal soon.



On a happier note… i wld like to wish a Happy 31st Birthday to my cekik darah, degil gila & helpful buddy, Sumi ManisMentel.Sorry lah, me & frenz can’t fulfil your wish i.e to masuk meminang for u.Well, well,well,hopefully you’ve found your MAN ok?Make sure u scan betul2 si Maidin tu.

OOohh..remember abt the MTV thingy dat i've told u earlier? I was part of the production & hopefully i'll be able to see myself when they blitz the mtv in our upcoming D&D.Urrgghh, i'm still unsure whether to go or not coz the following day is a working day for me.My frenz have been tugging & forcing me to go....what say u?

can spot me?

Rahim, the person behind all these.Indeed, he's a funny man!

Till then..Happy National Day…in advanced! Anyone want any Satay for lunch? (thks Bestie for the pics you've sent me early this morning! Yucccckkss!!!)

MTv

I had fun today & it won't end now coz later i'm meeting the sweetie of my heart!!!

Gone were the days......

Yeah!! No more staying back & late nites.Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah...our sqc renewal exercise was finally over!I was glad i was part of the team for this renewal coz i'm not sure if i'll still be ard in 3yrs time when we need to go thru another renewal exercise.Thou everyone was racing againts time, we tried not to be a pain in anybody's $%#$. Now, i've my Excel Award to look forward too!Oohh,and to Marina, Ain & Sumi..hey, u guyz shld be priviledged for getting the chance to be part of this too..unlike some pple who kept on thrashing & complaining.*sigh*

Before I forget, my deepest symphaty goes to my bestie who had lost her dear grandma on 10 Jul 07.Semoga rohnya dicucuri rahmat.I knew u r strong enuff to face all these & I'm glad u did.I won't complain if i can't meet u these days..but hope it won't be too long till we meet again eh.

Met Marliana (si kecik) a few days back when i was going shopping for my quiz prizes.Thks so much for being my model that day.This gerl..still the same.Cute & playful.Don't believe me??See below

And Saturday, a date wif my girlfren- Dhiya Umairah...hee hee..salah2, with the Ramli's family.We went shopping @ IKEA & finally dinner @ where else...West Coast food ctr lah!! =)

Maira, tengok mana tuuu??

I love her eyes!!


till then..

ta ta

Finally?

Hey, its me!! Yes!! Finally Jijah is updating.

Was super busy the whole of last week.I even skipped tuition to stay back in office that 1 night.Usually he wld be the one waiting for me & fetching me home but its different now.But no worries, my boss aldy promised me a half day off & i'm thinking of using it for my parents' medical appointments.I'm grateful that i got to work with wonderful & fun people...esp Sumi.Yeah...YOU lah, sape lagi! When it comes to work, i can tolerate her nonsense.heh2.Amacam, nxt yr nak jadi presenter lagi??

Despite the busi-ness @ work, i'm quite disturbed.How cld someone nice like my Dad be hurt?I can tolerate everything else in the world but i despise those who hurt my Dad.He was so calm when that thing happened & I salute him for that, Dad.Not even a bad word came out from his mouth.He even told us; the whole family, to set aside our sentiments & just accept things as what they are.You can Dad, but i cldn't & i supposed all your 3 angels couldn't.I feel like crying.

oppss, i'm getting emotional here but i'm just a plain human being.i wanted a simple life yet at times life is full of briddles & obstacles.But i truly believe i can overcome them-its just a matter of time.


Now i just need a rest.

till then, lets get busy again.=)

The Pink Ladies' Outing

As promised, finally, we made our way to the Singapore Zoo.While i'm looking forward to meet my old mates; the penguins,my 2 students wanted very much to see the seals & orang utans.Besides having to enjoy ourselves, it was also a chance to meet both of them who very much wanted to see each others.I thot i wld be tired after the trip but i guess the gerls lose out to me.They ended up sleeping in the bus!! If only they were my kids...they were so adorable!

well, let the pictures do the talking yah?Click here if you can't access the slides.
