kangaroos and wallabies

Hehe. Ni entri yang dalam draft laaaaaame dah ni sebenarnya. Baru nk update and tengok balik and baru nk publish. Ni pon buat auto-publish. Hehe. Anyway, previous entry gambar bersama koala. Now gambar bersama kangaroo plak. Yer lah kan, x sah laaa x jumpa kangaroo atau wallabies kalau pegi Australia. Hehe.

So, antara aktiviti yg anda boleh buat apabila berjumpa kangaroo & wallabies ialah bersalam-salaman dengannya, mengambil gambar, memberi makan (biskut atau kacang, tapi kangaroo lg suka kacang yer harap maklum), melakukan aktiviti kick-boxing bersama kangaroo, aktiviti melompat pon bleh juga dan yang paling senang ialah, meniru aksi kangaroo itu sendiri (my favourite of all activities).

Sekian, mari tatap gambar bersama kangaroo & wallabies meh !

P/S. Purposely posted this up on my birthday. Just in case people asking. At least I'm 24 :) Happy Birthday to me !

(auto-published)

of being shared

I just realized that most of the previous entries are all picture showing unfortunate people. It's just that I really wanted to share all those to everyone and everyone else. Hehe takpe laa kan ? :D

I think I have to mention a few random updates of people and happenings recently. Hehe. Dah lama dah tak update pasal my monsters and blossoms lah terutamanya. Probably because life has been so easy and less stressful lately.

Kalau dolu2, time belajar kat Adelaide, just because of the relative distance between me and my family, i was so excited when being told and shared updates from home, such as;

"Muaz dah tumbuh gigi dah"

"Umah ada pasang kipas baru. Commeiii"

"Kakchik (my cousin) branok doh. Baby girl ! yeayyyy"

"Bilik air umoh ado water heater doh. So mandi pagi-pagi x sejuk doh. Woohoo"

Those littlest things, when being told and shared with me, could really make my day. Especially, when I was in the middle of study week nak dekat-dekat exam tuh. Hehe. That was just normal to me.

I have learned that whatever stories, when it is shared between your loved ones, it will be such a meaningful highlight of your day, simply saying. Or highlight of your life, importantly saying :)

Okay, mari upload gambar my monsters sket.

Ahnaf and Aniq menang tempat kedua main bola sepak, peringkat kampung. hehe

Yang ni kanak-kanak berumur 3 tahun ke bawah. Yang pakai tudung kat blakang tuh 'bibik' aje. sibuk masuk gamba jugak. hahaha

not just water

Thank you ALLAH for the blessing of, simply opening a tap and having running water whenever you want it. I came across with this picture, knowing that there are still many people out there asking at least a small portion of what we have now. So, be thankful, be grateful ! But thankfulness and gratitude do not just stop here, by looking at this photo. It should be inspiring. This is inspiration for us to do better in life. Inspiration does exist, but it needs to find us working :)

- just my cheap two cents of words-

bubye,

empty bottles

Yes. Those babies are lying on concrete.

Yes. That bottle is empty.

Yes. Those are mosquitos swarming their little bodies.

Yes. This is the condition of Pakistan, at the moment

Another picture that breaks my heart :(

Yosh !

Favourite quote by far.

Brilliant ! Thank you kid. We all need this. Hehe

Respectful

talk about being respectful.

A-little-reminder-to-myself,

marilah kita sama-sama hormati orang kerana ilmu nya, kerana akhlak nya, kerana budi pekerti dan adab nya, bukan lah semata-mata kerana pangkat nya, darjat nya, rupa nya atau BMW nya sahaja. itu mungkin sampingan atau meaningless sahaja di sisi Allah SWT. wallahualam. Allah knows BEST!

pemanasan global

Hehe

Lupe nak bgtau tadi, lately ni kan, Kelantan ni sangat sangat laa panas. kalau dari pagi sampai laaa petang tuh panas. pastu bleh plak tiba-tiba kan hujan guruh kilat berdentum berdentam (ade ke perkataan ni hehe). and malam plak bleh jadi panas jugak. so cuaca mmg xboleh nak predict.

Okay, terase mcm makcik-makcik plak dok ckp mcm nih. hihi x baik laaa mengeluh !

So, betul laaa global warming kan. Proven by this,

Anyway

Eh lama nya saya tak update blog. Hisashiburi desu ne. hehe

It's been a while. again. hehe, i swear that i always wanted to write something, was so semangat utk update blog, but then i forgot. hahaha. probably, too many things have been occupying my mind lately. So, as abah always say, do the important thing first. Hehe. Hmm xtahu nak update ape sbenarnya. Hehe x ingat dah nak cerita ape. Tu laaa. tangguh-tangguh sangat kan, sepatutnya, if something happens, cepat-cepat laaa update blog kan. Hihi.

Anyway, sekarang tak guna dah maxis brokbeng tuh. Dear readers, please bear in mind that maxis broadband tu akan bertahan laju for just 3 months jer kot. Pastu centre of attraction broadband tu dah hilang, unless you use at different places regularly.

Anyway, Muaz has turned 2. Alya plak dah 12 years old. Tomorrow is teacher's day and this year, is my first year celebrating teacher's day as 'teacher/lecturer'. Hehe. What a bliss :) Alhamdulillah. Tomorrow also is my kakak's 44th birthday.

Anyway, this entry is getting tedious ! haha saye yg menaip ni pon mngantuk baca. Anyway, Muaz dah datang ngukah belakang mak ude nih. Adoi.

Hoho I don't fancy orange colour actually. but ANYWAY, this dress, captures my eyes ! Comeii nyooo. nok sorrr :P

Masks

Boy loses eyes, a result of the Isreali assault on Gaza.

The documentary of this child, showed that he sat there, and told the camera man, how 'he wishes to die straight away. he wants to die now'.

These shouldn't be the thoughts of any children in the world :(

Things like this just make me realize we are actually living in the world where syaitan/bad people that wearing masks, trying to make our life miserable. So friends, please be careful. Please have faith, have faith.

kecil tapi bermakna

Hi there. knock knock !

Dah semayang dah ? Hehe.

Tiba-tiba tanya macam tu kan. Yang belum solat lagi tuh, sila lah solat dulu yer. Hahaha macam cikgu-cikgu plak rase. Eh memang saye cikgu pon !

Kat UMK campus, saye sebagai tutor. Kat umah, hari friday and saturday sebagai cikgu tuisyen plak. Hehe. Nak cari makan sesuap nasik punye pasal. Boleh laaa kan. Wat bayar bil maxis beruk-bengg and beli air teh-o-beng jgak. Hihi.

Oh yes, nak crita pasal anak murid tuisyen saye nih. ade 3 orang semua nya,

Auni, 11 years old

Amira, 9 years old

Afnan, 13 years old.

See the age difference there ? Okay ! Age difference x kesah pon. But the syllabus difference is giving me quite a mess. Eh takde la mess, tapi fenin fenin lalat. Mula-mula tak biasa lagi. But then, when time passes by, rase mcm dah boleh handle them comfortably :) Yang penting, input yg disampaikan masukk meresap ke dalam brain and hati diorang okay ! hehe

Oh yer, nak cerita, So, last month i did make a promise to these kiddos that i wanted to bring them to KBmall. Pastu sampai laaa berlalu sebulan, tak sempat2 nak tunaikan the promise tuh. So, last week, paksakan diri brought them to kbmall. So I sort of belanja them at KFC aje. And bawak masuk bookstore. and suddenly they asked to go to Pacific to buy something. and they asked me not to go with them, together, just wait kt luar-luar tu jer. Pelik dah. Tunggu laaa kan kejap. Rupa rupanya, they bought me chocolates ! Hahaha. Aduhaiii melt-down jap rase. Terharuuuuu ! Hehe. 'Ni hadiah utk Kak Ami sebab ngajar kami'. Takpe Auni, Mira and Afnan, Kak Ami doakan semoga sentiasa berjaya dalam pelajaran, and jaga akhlak sokmo ! :)) Manners too okay !

Okay itu laa cerita terharu nya. Kecil jer cokelat tuh, tapi bermakna bagi saye ! :)

kecil tapi bermakna.

Now this is such a blessing ! Really made my day :)

No reason

If we fall in love because someone makes us laugh, what happens when we no longer find them funny? If we fall in love because someone is beautiful, what happens when that beauty fades? Hence love defies all reasons. When you truly love someone, you just can't find a reason.

You just do, don't you? Because I do.

Post-graduation

Love is a giving away of power. When we love we give the other person the power in the relationship. They can do what they choose. They can do what they like with our love. They can reject it, they can accept it, they can step toward us in gratitude and appreciation.

Randomly found that quote :)

Alhamdulillah. We are now back to Kelate terchenta. Singapore had been giving such beautiful moments and great experience to us. Eh macam x pernah pegi Singapore plak. Hihi. Such a big big big thankfully appreciation to my Sister, Aida, or we call her Kakak since she is the sulong of the siblings. Hehe. Kakak and family have always been helpful. And Also my bff, Ina sudi dtg Singapore amik gamba Ami grad and g jalan-jalan lagi. Hehe. Also Huda sanggup meneman jugak. Eh tetiba rase mcm buat ucapan dapat Oscar award pulok doh. Orait orait, sekian terima kasih ! Hihi

Anyway, my second graduation/convocation day. This time around tak rase sedih or sebak sangat kot. My first graduation day agak rase sebak time nak naik stage tuh sebab bile tgk audiences, takdop Ma Abah. Huhu emo plak. Tapi this time, rase cheerful and excited and bersemangat jgk. Cuma, there was one thing, did cross my mind while i was standing on the stage, waiting for my name to be called. It was the experience during my honors research. Agak terase laaaa kesusahan time buat honors. And now, it's all over, and to me, it's not just in one piece of that scroll or certificate, but those experiences are also shaped in my hands. buried in my minds. Perghhhhhh ayat ! mcm mane boleh keluar ala-ala falsafah nih. Hihi. Orait orait, stop here ! :)

hahahhaha upload gambar sampai lebam !

Heart-breaking

This picture really broke my heart. In just a blink of eye, everything has changed. We may not know how it feels to be in this kind of situation. My prayers are with you Japan. Oh Allah, make it easy for them. Make it easy for us. Enlighten our path. Show us the right way Allah.

Sometimes what i felt is, it is so easy to get caught up in our own little world that we forget that we are all apart of a bigger picture, it may not be you today, but it could be you tomorrow. Let’s not take life for granted or turn a blind eye to those in trouble. So I guess we should keep on praying. Never give up. Allah is always there. ALWAYS !

Happy Ending

Banyak benda benda menarik dan tak menarik jugak happening these past few days. And I have always been reminded myself that whatever happens, never lose your gravity. keeping your feet on the ground ! :)

And there are also many littlest things so called series of stories happening in our life.

Hehe. Seronok la plak rase. Enchanted sangat sangat !

Continuing the story yeay !

Never give up

Allah does not love sins, but Allah loves to forgive.

Allah does not love the sinner, but Allah loves the repenter.

One of the biggest sins that we can do is to give up hope of Allah's forgiveness.

something to ponder upon.

The Mercy of Allah that we often take for granted.

March is here. Feels like January and February were just a few of eye blinks. but memorable enough for me. Alhamdulillah. Hello March ! Please be good to me and people i love too :)

Rindu Adelaide lah !

Comparison

Lately, we've been creating crazy and interesting formulas about life. It is just a part of bittersweet when you're having conversation with someone. And I just love the fact that, one single word can open you up to a whole new stories and ideas being shared :) I just love that. It's just like a polaroid. Instant and just once. You don't need big effort on that. Because if it's meant to be, then it will be. sooner or later God knows the best !

Phew. enough with my opinion !

Hehe, found this formula (quote/saying),

In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals to EVERYTHING, and two minus one equals to NOTHING. - Mignon Mclaughlin -

So my dearest sister, Budik, as a mathematician, try prove this formula ? HAHAHA

And I think the best comparison that we should always carry in our heart is,

yang harum

kat rumah saye ade sejenis bunga ni. sampai sekarang saye pon xtahu nama ape bunga nih. tapi bunga ni wangi time lewat petang nk masuk maghrib tuh. say, just before the sun sets out of the earth (oloh. sebut jah la sunset. sajo nok panje ayat. hahaha).

ermm. selalu nya abah yang kutip bunga nih. eh kadang2 my mum jgak. and abah biasenye akn letak atas katil. so, selalu nya masuk je bilik tengok2 ade la bunga ni tersergam (erkk false alarm. penyalahgunaan kata adjektif) di atas katil.

ini bunga nya :)

memang lumrah la kan kita akan suka yang wangi-wangi. harum-harum.

bau baby pon best jugak. kan kan ? (kecuali time dia poo-poo! hahaha)

Wazif (4 months) and the bunga = Mat Bungo ! :P

Ermm talking about harum and wangi nih. adakah anda smua sudah mandi ni ? bau semacam jer. muahahaha random question !
