I dream what I want to dream; I go where I want to go; I be what I want to be, because I believe that I have only one life and one chance to do all the things I want to do.
Salam semua,Lamanya tak berceloteh kat sini, sibuk sangat dengan kerja dan kehidupan harian. Walaupun ada bermacam-macam cerita nak dikongsi tapi terpaksalah ditunda sehinggalah sekarang, baru dapat cuti masa sikit (itupun sebab bos fly pegi Vietnam..hehehe). Eh, jgn salah anggap,semua kerja beres, semua dah settle, kita tak makan gaji buta tau!
Tadi masa curi-curi surfing blog kawan2, terbaca lak yang bulan ni bulan bapa..betul ke (tolong betulkan kalau salah, saya budak baru belajar..hehe). Takpe, kalau salah takde kena hukuman gantungnya.Ni nak cerita sikit pasal satu produk yg mesti korang tahu punya: TIMBERLAND
Ish, jgn cuak, takde apa-apa issue yang sensitif dgn brand ni, so far HALAL digunakan. Cuma nak berkongsi sikit pasal kualiti dan harganya. Macam ni, last time aku dengan hubby dok merayau-rayau, berdua-duaan kat Mid Valley, tetiba dia heret je aku kat satu butik ni, apa lagi, TIMBERLAND lah tu.
Hubby aku, sejak 2-menjak ni mmg tetiba lak minat sgt dgn brand ni. so aku ikut jelah. Lamanya tunggu dia memilih, nak cari sandal je. Aku lak yg jenis jahil barangan branded ni duduklah dgn bosan nya, mana tahu itu branded brand, takdela nak membelek.
Tah mcmmana, terlintas lak nak tgk sandal pompuan yg ada kt situ, pas tu saja lah try-try sarung satu sandal ni, eh, syoklah lak, leathernya lembut je walaupun rupanya takdelah secantik mana. Wah..syok ni. Aku pun apa lagi, cuitlah cik abg yg tgh syok mengetest sandal situ, aku tunjuk sandal yg aku suka tu..pas tu dia angguk je..hehehe...setuju lah tu.
Masa byr, terbeliak mata aku..2 sandal tu..harganya rm700++. Wah..biar benar ni, aku terus capai sandal aku and tgk harga. Gulp! RM369.90. Terduduk jap aku. Terkedu jap selama 10min. Huhuhu..nasib baik bukan aku yg bayar. So dapatlah aku sandal yg sepanjang hidup aku, inilah yg paling mahal pernah aku sarungkan kt kaki aku..
Hari ni kelam-kabut sikit...pagi-pagi lagi dah terlewat bangun, pas tu baju kerja aku dengan hubby tak gosok lagi, beg nursery anak-anak pun belum kemas lagi. Adoii...biasanya si zara damia jadi tukang kejut, sebab dia everyday mesti bangun kul 5.30am, tapi hari ni, dia pun terlajak gak.
Bila dah bangun lambat tu, sampai office pun lambatlah. Biasa kul 8 dah ada kt opis, tapi hari ni, cecah 8.30am gaklah baru sampai. Pas tu check email gak, breakfast then pegi buat distribution document- tingkat 12, 11, 10, 9 dan 8, semua guna tangga. Exercise…hehehehehe
Time lunch sempat gaklah aku surfing internet, baca papar online, reply email customer then check blog-blog yang menjual pelbagai produk dan services. Ada satu ni yang aku amat tertarik, satu blog dia jual cupcakes dan cake, yang deco dia memang cantik-cantik: http://guladanmentega.blogspot.com
Perghh…memang cantik-cantik decoration dia, and cake and cupcakesnnye pun Nampak sedap je. Aku ingat nanti nak tempah kat kakak ni, birthday cake dan cupcakes anak aku, zara damia, sebelum puasa, untuk anak saudara aku, farish hezriey,, lepas raya dan birthday cake utk hero aku, Muqri. Syoknya…mesti diorang suka.
Bila tengok cupcakes dan cake yang dah didecorate, syok je, sampai terpikir, nak belajar lak. Tapi persoalannya, ada ke masa? Dengan kerja, family, online business lagi. Tapi memang cantik dia buat. Fondant kek pun ada..Memang professional cara dia decorate kek ni, sampai aku pun tumpang bangga sebab ada gak anak melayu yang boleh create makanan yang selazat dan secantik ni.
Aku memang salute lah dengan kakak ni. Walaupun aku tak kenal kakak ni and tak pernah order dengan dia, tapi base on hasil kerja dia, aku rasa for sure dia ni ada repeated customer. Cantik ooo..kalau tak percaya, cubalah surf blog dia dan korang nilailah sendiri.
Aku ada gak surfing blog lain yang jual cupcakes dan cake macam ni, tapi bagi aku hasil kerja kakak ni still the best lah di mata aku. Eh? Apsal aku beria sangat puji kakak ni, aku tak kenal dia pun, cuma terlalu teruja dengan cupcake dan fondant kek yang dia hasilkan. Perghh…memang class!!
Aku terfikir gak nak tempah cupcakes dan cake utk adik aku bulan 10 ni, sebab aku dah janji dengan dia nak sponsor cake dan manisan untuk hantaran. So, since aku dah terjumpa blog kakak ni, after confirm tarikh kenduri, akan ku pastikan segala cake dan cupcakes harijadi, anniversary dan hantaran akan ditempah oleh kakak ni. Kak ita, tunggu sahaja order dariku…hehehehe
Tapi sebab tak sabar, rasa macam nak order sikit dulu, untuk birthday aku, 29 June ni. Apa-apapun, kena call kakak ni dulu kan. Cuma satu je kelemahan nya, dia tak buat delivery, self-pick up only. So rasanya kalau nak order setakat sebiji kek atau 25 ketul cupcakes tak berbaloi lak nak pegi seri kembangan.
Tengoklah..apa-apa, aku nak korang tengok hasil kerja dia, and for sure korang setuju dengan aku
Sepanjang perjalanan ke office pagi ini, aku asyik berfikir. Betul ke, ada orang kata dunia ni tak adil buat mereka? Kalau betul, mesti ada sebabkan. Allah tak akan buat sesuatu itu melainkan ada hikmahnya. Kalau hidup kita penuh dengan kegembiraan, Allah nak tengok sebenarnya kita ni tahu bersyukur atau tak. Kalau hidup kita penuh dengan kedukaan, itu tandanya Allah sedang menduga kite. See..there always a reason.
Tapi persoalan nya setakat mana kesabaran kita nak menghadapi semua dugaan dan ujian-Nya. Adakah keimanan kita sekuat Sumaiyah? Adakah kepercayaan kita kepada Allah seteguh Rasulullah SAW? Adakah ketakwaan kita menyamai ketakwaan sahabat-sahabat Rasul? Tepuk dada tanya hati. Sucikah hati kita? Murnikan jiwa kita? Teguhkan semangat kita. Wallah hualam, sesungguhnya hanya kita dan Allah yang tahu sedalam mana kasih kita kepada-Nya, kan?
Duhai hati, sabarlah, tabahlah. Wahai semangat, kuatlah. Wahai jiwa, tenanglah. Sekuat mana dugaan yang aku hadapi ini, biarlah kepada-Nya sahaja aku berserah. Dia Maha Mengetahui. Dia Maha Berkuasa. Tak guna berdendam, tak guna membenci, tak guna menyimpan perasaan. Aku bersyukur dilahirkan dan dibesarkan di dalam agama suci ini kerana aku tahu, di saat aku memerlukan kesempurnaan, hanya DIA yang mampu memenuhi. Di saat aku rindukan kasih sayang yang tulus dan suci, hanya di riba-Nya aku temui. Ketika hati ini berkecamuk, merusuh penuh kebencian, Dialah penenangnya. Dan sewaktu perasaan ini sunyi dan rindukan kegembiraan, Dia ada segalanya.
Ya Tuhan, terima kasih kerana mengurniakan aku hati dan perasaan, biarpun adakala aku lupa pada-Mu. Ya Tuhan, terima kasih kerana menguji aku kerana sungguh, ujian-Mu itu mengembalikan aku kepada-Mu.
Betapa bertuahnya aku, betapa beruntungnya aku kerana punyai apa yang aku mahu. Namun, kenapa hati ini masih lagi tidak bersyukur?
Hadui...terlepas lagi nak booking flight time diorang buat free seat promotion. Dah register, dah letak detail, dah enter kredit kad detail pu, pas tu bila nak confirm payment je, tetiba lak hang. Aduss...apsal lak ni. Tunggu punya tunggu...lek elleh,..tengok dah kul 12.30pm. mm...jawabnya, memang takde rezeki lah. Terpaksalah tunggu next promotion.
Cerita pasal holiday trip ni, teringat lak aku punya family holiday kat Port Dickson last few month. Syok gak lah. Seronoklah anak-anak aku mandi-manda kt theme park hotel Tiara Beach Resport tu. And aku lak, walapun tak berkesempatan nak join the club (sebab masa tu zara kecik lagi, tak yakin lak nak bawak main air time panas-panas macam tu), for the first time in my life aku cuba fish spa tu. Sejam RM30 (itupun dah kira murah, siot, nak dibandingkan dengan spa kt Dr. Fish, Pavillion, sejam RM85...gile mahal).
Masa mula-mula masukkan kaki dalam kolam ikan tu...ish..cuak gak..kot-kot anak-anak ikan tu spesis piranha kang, tak kena naya. Bila aku rendam je kaki kat dalam bekas tu...fuh...macam setahun tak makan, anak-anak kan tu kerumun kaki aku. Aku pun rasa kegelian lah pulak. Lama lah jugak baru aku mendapat keyakinan diri..for the first 5 minutes tu, memang meremang je bulu roma, geli sebab terasa gigi dia kecik-kecik gigit kulit kat bahagian kaki tu. Tapi bila dah lama-lama tu rasa macam kena massage je.Lama gak lah aku menyerahkan tapak kaki aku tu kat ikan-ikan tu..dekat sejam gak. Oklah..aku suggestlah kalau ada kawan-kawan yang nak cuba, patut trylah (cubalah...kalau berani). Kalau sesapa yang tapak kaki macam ada kulit kasar-kasar tu, should try this method...sambil tu boleh relaks sikit.
Cerita pasal dinner lak..pergh...memang best. Adik ipar aku belanja kitorang makan seafood...ketam dan udang bakar, pas tu ada nasi dan ikan bakar jugak. Memang sedap..ketam dan udang bakar dia, memang berperisa, sambal cicah pun memang sedap. Pendek kata, licin lah segala yang ada malam tu. Tapi kitorang tapau je, makan kat hotel memandangkan anak-anak sema dah mengantuk.
Tapi kat Tiara Beach Resort tu, ada satu je lah masalahnya...TAKDE LIF. So kalau sesiapa yang berniat nak menginap kat situ dan rasa tak larat nak panjat tangga tu, elok infom diorang awal-awal. Kesian mak aku, naik pas tu just turun time balik ej...huhuhuhu...sorry mak..lain kali kita mintak tingkt bawh sekali eh...
On the way balik, ada gak menyinggah nak tengok rumah api, tapi tak jumpa. Pas tu singgah shopping kat pantai port dickson, oklah..adalah beli satu-dua barang termasuklah benda wajib yang mesti aku carik-FRIDGE MAGNET. Cuma satulah yang aku rasa tak syok..kat pantai PD tu, penuh sangatlah, sampai mencacatkan pemandanga yang cantik tuh. Tahlah, pembangunan memang merosakkan alam.
Oklah..pas tu kitorang jalan-jalan Nilai 3. Mak aku apa lagi...memborong sampai penuh satu kereta. Siap kata nak datang lagi bawak van tuh. Fuh...aduh, mak aku ni buat lawak ke? Tapi aku rasa macam betul-betul je.
Alang-alang dah share cerita, elok share gambar sekali. Tak dapat g langkawi, g PD pun ok. Maybe nak g jalan-jalan TELUK BATIK, sebab pantainya cantik, kos murah. Insyaallah.
* oh ya, gambar-gambar ni discrapkan oleh kak teh dr http://photoscrap2u.blogspot.com/. Bagi kredit sikit kat dia atas hasil kerja nya yang bravo!!
Sejak opis aku dah 'mengharamkan' FB ni , hidup rasa sunyi dan boring je. Mana taknya, kat situlah nak dengar cerita kawan-kawan lama, kawan satu sekolah lah, kawan-kawan kat tempat kerja lama lah, kawan-kawan masa belajar uitm dan jugak kawan-kawan seangkatan. Kat FB lah nak tahu minah ni dah nak kawin, minah tu lak baru kawin, yang ni tengah pregnant, yang tu lak baru je bersalin (twin lagi-alhamdulillah), yang kawan yang ni lak baru celebrate birthday anak lah, birthday hubby lah, baru balik bercuti lah, ada gak yang baru balik honeymoon...bla...bla...bla...
Sebab tu lah sekarang aku bertukar ke blog lak. Dulu nak menulis kat blog punyalah liat, kira tahap kemalasan tu memang di luar kawalan lah, tapi skang, alhamdulillah, bolehlah nak berkongsi cerita. Kira kalau aku dok merapu kat sini, belum adalah lagi yang email aku dan menyatakan ketidakpuasan hati kat luahan aku ni. (hehehehe). Bak kata kawan aku, si Ogy : " Kak zur, jangan disia-siakan bakat menulis tu". Yelah, ada ke suruh aku tulis cerpen ke, novel ke...gile ke hape, manalah aku ada talent nak buat cerita bersiri panjang berjela macam tu, merapu je. Kang merosakkan industri penulisan negara je. So bagi kawan-kawan yang masih lagi aktif berfacebook tu, selamat bersukaria lah ye. Aku ni, nak harap online malam, huhuhuu...entahlah. Masalahnya, bila aku tidurkan anak-anak aku, mesti terlelap sama, sampai pagi lak tuh. Aduh, macamana lah ye. So nak inform kalau ada kawan-kawan yang nak berkogsi cerita tu, just email je kat aku ye: zjzuriati@gmail.com. Atau mana yang tahu no phone, call je lah, lagi senang. Mana-mana yang dah bersalin, baru kawin, sambut birthday anak, email je lah gambar-gambarnye, atau korang park je lah gambar-gambar korang tu kat fotopages, bukan aku je boleh tengok, satu dunia pun boleh berkongsinya...hehehehe
Hari ni on the way hantar anak-anak ke nursery, si abang, Muqri, ternampak sebuah kereta sport yang sangat cantik kat simpang jalan. Dengan penuh semangat, dia kata:
Muqri: Mama, mama tengok kereta tu. Cantik kan? Aku: Hmm..cantik..abang suka ke? Muqri: Suka, nanti abang nak beli satu macam tu boleh ke, ma? Aku: Boleh sayang...tapi nanti abang kenalah belajar pandai-pandai ye Muqri: Yelah, abang nak pegi sekolah agama lah mama Aku: Ye sayang, tahun depan mama bawak abang pegi daftar kat sekolah agama ye Muqri: Mama, nanti abang nak beli kereta cantik dengan umah besar untuk mama tau Aku: Iye? Betul ke? Abang nak beli untuk mama? Babah? Muqri: Untuk babah jugak. Abg beli kereta, pas tu abg nak ajak babah naik kereta abg.. Aku: Habis mama, mcmn? Takkan mama duk kt umah je Muqri: Mama duduk kat belakang , dgn adik.. Aku: ......
Tingginya imaginasi dia, tinggi lagi harapan aku. Bila kenangkan mcmn lah anak-anak aku bila dewasa, rasa takut pun ada. Yelah, nanti dia dah ada kehidupan sendiri, aku takut kalau-kalau mama dan babahnya ini dipinggirkan. Sampai satu tahap aku bagitau dia ' abang, nanti dh besar tinggl dengan mama ye, biar mama jaga cucu-cucu mama ye, abg kawin dgn pilihan mama ye..bla...bla..bla..;. Tah apa lagi aku mengarut kat dia, dia pun just angguk-angguk kepala sambil ternganga-nganga. Hahahaha..teruklah mama ni kan, sayang.
Itu baru cerita pasal sport car. Belum masuk topik dia nak naik jet nak pegi moon. Atau kereta Toyota Alphard tu boleh tukar jadi robot, macam dalam cerita Transformers tu. Atau dia nak belikan adiknya, Zara damia anak patung barbie yang dia nampak dalam katalog Toys'r'us. Huhuhuhu...Ya Allah, tak kiralah bagaimana masa depan anak-anakku di masa hadapan, tapi biarlah iman dan kepercayaannya tetatp pada-MU, Tuhan yang Maha Agung. Amin..
Hahahaha...apa ada dengan hari rabu, selain hari yang berada kat tengah-tengah minggu? Macam biasalah, bangun pagi, celik mata pikir kerja, anak-anak, duit dan business aku. Datang office tengok bertimbun je kerja atas meja..huh, nasib baiklah aku suka kerja aku. So, takdelah rasa terbeban sangat.
Malam tadi zara menangis lagi. Kesian anak mama, seksa sungguh nak tumbuh gigi ni ye. Punyalah lama menangis sampai kembung perut dia. Aku pun apa lagi, mulakanlah operasi menyelamat. Mula-mula aku gosok-gosok gusi dia dengan kain lembap, tak jalan, pas tu bagi gripe water, pun tak jalan, letak lak teething gel..tak jalan gak..last sekali, aku ambil ais tu seketul dua, letak dalam kain yg bersih, ikat dengan getah pas tu aku basahkan kain tu (dekat bahagian ketulan ais tu) dengan air sejuk, pas tu aku gosok-gosok kat gusi dia. Aik? Wah, nampaknya cara ni berkesanlah. Zara dia je..mula-mula dia taknak, siap geleng-geleng lagi, tapi bila dia dah rasa sejuk ais tu, mulalah seronok. Siap pegang tangan aku lagi, tak kasi keluarkan kain tu. Sampai cairlah ais tu digigitnya. Finally, aku bentangkan toto kat depan tv, pasang cerita Jim Jam & Sunny (favorite dia tu) yang dah aku rekodkan (nasib baik pakai Astro MAX- thanks yayang)..tengok-tengok..aiyaiyai..tak sampai 10 minit dah terlelap. Dengan mamanya sekali tertidur. Bila aku terjaga, tengok-tengok si abang, Muqri, pun join the club tidur kat luar. Hai anak-anak mama...
Esok dah khamis, then jumaat. Minggu ni hubby pegi lumut, ada treasure hunt. Aku tak kira, next year aku nak ikut gak. So weekend ni, tengoklah siapa yang akan datang menemani aku dan anak-anak kat umah. Maybe mak ke, atau adik lelaki aku yang study kt uitm tu.
Skang dah lunch, makan pizza dengan chicken wings+air pepsi (sihat sungguh diet aku). So now, get back to work. Nanti citer lagi..banyak betul nak citer nih...heheheh
10 May, aku rasa hari yang dinanti-nantikan oleh semua ibu-ibu di seluruh dunia. Pada semua ibu/mama/umi/bonda atau apa sahaja gelarannya, selamat hari ibu untuk semua. Tahniah kerana kita semua berpeluang mempunyai seseorang yang memanggil kita dengan panggilan emak/mama/ibu kerana di dunia ni, ada ramai lagi isteri-isteri yang belum berpeluang untuk bergelar ibu.
Buat emak tersayang, terima kasih atas kasih sayang, perhatian, didikan, semangat, sokongan dan segala kebaikan yang dicurahkan. Buat mereka yang sudah tidak mempunyai ibu, sedekahlah Fatihah kepada mereka dan teruskanlah berbuat kebaikan kerana setiap kebaikan yang kita lakukan, Insyaallah, akan membantu dia di alam sana.
Agaknya beginilah yang dirasakan oleh ibu kita. Disaat anak tersayang mencium pipi, memeluk aku dan mengucapkan betapa mereka sayangkan aku, rasanya akulah orang yang paling bertuah di dunia. Memang, pada masa dan ketika itu, tak ada apa yang dapat menebus perasaan bahagia itu. Kalaulah diizinkan Allah, aku mahu melihat anak-anak membesar dan bersama-sama aku dan babahnya hingga ke akhirnya. Kalau diizinkan Allah, aku mahu mengajarnya mengaji, mengenal huruf-huruf jawi agar dia biasa membaca dan memahami kitab suci Al-Quran, mengajarnya menulis, mewarna, membaca dan selawat syifa yang sangat digemarinya. Kalau diiizinkan Allah, aku mahu menyuapkan dia, memandikan dia, menidurkan dia, menemaninya menonton tv dan bermain, melayan segala pertanyaan nya biarpun ia satu soalan yang paling sukar untuk dijawab oleh kebanyakkan ibu-ibu didunia ini- " mama, adik zara tu datang dari mana"...fuh!!
Melihat dia bermain bersama adiknya, membuat aku terfikir betapa bertuahnya aku, di usia begini, aku dikurniakan Allah 2 orang cahayamata dalam jarak yang dekat. Benar, pada mulanya hanya Allah yang tahu betapa sukarnya nak menguruskan mereka tapi aku terfikir, mungkin Muqri memang memerlukan teman bermain, sebab itulah dia sangat gembira melayan karenah zara, adiknya. Yang si adik pula, apa sahaja yang dilakukan oleh sang abang, akan diikut dengan gelak ketawa. Syukur Ya Allah, KAU berikan peluang ini untuk aku bergelar ibu, di saat ramai teman-temanku yang masih lagi terlalu sibuk dengan kerja, sehingga tidak pernah terfikir betapa bahagianya bergelar seorang mama. Aku coretkan pengalaman ku ini untuk dikongsi bersama mereka yang belum berpeluang untuk bergelar seorang mama atau bakal bergelar mama, ketahuilah, bila kalian melihat anak-anak yang berjiwa murni ini membesar di hadapan mata, bila kalian melihat anak-anak kecil ini ketawa gembira, bila anak-anak ini menangis dan mencari riba kamu untuk menghamparkan segala kesedihan mereka, cubalah pejamkan mata dan rasai kehangatan perasaan di dalam diri, peluklah anak itu, ciumlah mereka dan ingat, itulah anugerah dan amanah ALLAH, yang hanya diberi kepada insan yang terpilih! Amati wajah jujur mereka dan cubalah renung jauh ke dalam mata dan hati mereka, itu darah dagingmu...itu zuriatmu...itulah diri kamu..
Hmm...susah...susah...ditelan mati mak, diluah mati bapak..so kemam ajerlah dalam mulut, simpan je lah dalam hati, sebab manusia memang tak sempurna, kan. Nak complaint lebih-lebih pun buat sakit hati je.Aku malas nak citer kat sini, kang membuka aib orang lak. Cukuplah kalau aku katakan aku meluat and menyampah tahap gaban kat makhluk Allah yang sorang ni.Semoga Allah tabahkan hati aku.
Ish..dah lama gak tak update blog ni. Sejak membusykan diri dengan business online ni, memang takde masa langsung nak berblog-blog ni. Tetiba lak teringin nak tulis-menulis kat sini. Skang office hour dah tukar, isnin-khamis kerja 9 jam tapi jumaat 4 jam je. bunyinya memanglah syok sbb jumaat kerja half-day je tapi Tuhan je lah yang tahu macamna penatnya hari-hari yang dilalui dari Isnin sampai Khamis tu. Kesian anak-anak mama, asyik lambat je ambil dari nursery. Tapi apa-apa pun, terima kasih sayang sebab tetap senyum bila nampak mama.Mujur ada anak-anakku yang manis, buat pengubat penat. syukurr...
Semalam sempat lah mencelah kejap petang lepas kerja, pergi melepak kat Dome KLCC dengan my friend, si Rangash. Sebab hari tu lunch lambat (pukul 4 baru makan nasi), so time melepak tu takdelah nak makan berat-berat, tambah lak hati dah teringat kat anak-anak. Tapi mengenangkan kawan aku yang sorang ni asyik membebel je ajak jumpa, ok...oklah...kasiklah my value time 1 jam kat dia, yelah, orang kata sesibuk mana pun kita, kena gak ada time at least a cup of coffee with friends. So, dengan hati waja dan penuh keberanian, aku pun melangkahlah ke stesen LRT Dang Wangi, nak pegi KLCC nih. Tapi Ya ampun, ramainya manusia. Punyalah ramai sampai train yang ke-4 pun aku tak dapat nak naik (sedangkan berdiri betul2 depan pintu). Taknak aku berebut-rebut, kang tersepit kang sape susah..aku gak.
Dah berpeluh-peluh menunggu, kepala pun dah pening lalat, akhirnya dapatlah naik train. Tapi apalah malang, berdiri betul-betul kat keti** mamat ni. aduuuhhhh...pengsan..memang sikit lagi nak pengsan, nasib baik KLCC dah dekat.Nasib baiklah aku ulang-balik kerja naik motor, kalau macm ni tiap-tiap hari, entahlah apa akan jadi dengan aku ni. Kat Dome, aku order English breakfast tea dengan chocolate brownies with vanilla ice-cream. and si Rangash tu lak order ginger tea dengan kuih apa tah..tapi alamak...kociknya, kesian aku tengok. Aku rasa dia pun tak kenyang kot pasal dia asyik geleng-geleng kepala je...hehehe
Oklah, dah lama tak jumpa, macam-macamlah cerita kan. Tanya itu ini..satu je aku nak tahu..bilalah mamat ni nak kawin? agak-agak kalau dia baca blog aku ni, tak tahulah dia kasik jawapan atau tak?..hehehe..atau biarlah hidup anda diselubungi misteri....
(Here's the reply the teacher received from a mother of one of her student the following day after receiving the picture drawn by her student)
Dear Mrs. Jones, I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer. I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it.
Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
I received this story from my friends, Amin and i think this is a very good lesson to learn and share;
One day, a worried woman went to her gynecologist and said 'Doctor, I have a serious problem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even 1 yr. old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together.'
So the doctor said: 'Ok and what do you want me to do?' She said: 'I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your help with this.'
The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady: 'I think I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too.'
She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request. Then he continued: 'You see, in order for you not to have to take care of 2 babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms.. This way, you could rest some before the other one is born. If we're going to kill one of them, it doesn't matter which one it is. There would be no risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms.
The lady was horrified and said: 'No doctor! How terrible! It's a crime to kill a child!
'I agree', the doctor replied. 'But you seemed to be ok with it, so I thought maybe that was the best solution. The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point.
Then the doctor convinced the mom that there is no difference in killing a child that's already been born and one that's still in the womb. The crime is the same!
When things in your life seem almost too much too handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full they agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar . Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things-your God, family, your children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions--things that if everything else was lost and only they remained your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car. The sand is everything else -- the small stuff. If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued,"there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal."
Take care of the golf balls first -- the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."
When i decided to conceive, i really hope that i will get a baby girl. I was so jelous with my friends who has a daughther, which means they can buy a lot of sweet, pinky and flowery clothes and accessorice for their little girl. So when my son, Muqri celebrated his 2nd birthday, i told my husband that i'm ready for the second child! 23rd Aug 2005, is the happiest day in my life. Finally, i got what i want...a chubby and sweet baby girl. I named her: Zara Damia, means the light of truthness and intelligent. Her hair was so thick, got a chubby face but look so soft and girly. I cannot wait to bring her home because the whole family was waiting, especially Muqri.
Zara loves to be held, caressed, kissed, stroked, massaged, and carried. He may even make an "ah" sound when she hears my voice or sees my face, and she'll be eager to find me once she hear my voice. Yes, she's dependent on me for love, care, and feeding and i will try to give my best to all her need, since the only way she knows to communicate is by crying. But I learnt that I can communicate with her through my voice and my touch.
Now, she is 5 month already. She is on the rolling stage..roll...roll...roll..and again. She start crying when i leave the room or the nuersery and she get excited when she saw me come back. She will laugh when me or her brother make a silly face or funny sound. She loves watching television with her brother, and now, likes to grab anything that Muqri have in his hand (a sign that whatever my brother have, i should get one!!)
One more, she now are more alert on sound. She realizes where sound come from and she will quickly turn to that direction. She loves wind chimes (come from my neighbour;s house) and seems like i have to get one. Oh...she also recognize her name and will response when i talk to her. I also notice that she will turns his head when i call her or talk about her with my hubby.
So the only way to entertain her at this stage is talk and sing to her. One her favorite song is 'the itsy-bitsy spider' (yeah...i master with it).Argh...she love books too and her brothers' toys (superman, spiderman, cars, trucks etc). Hopefully whe she grows up, whe will loves barbie doll more than cars and ultraman). Yeah.. her hair is long and so thick. I even can tie it and use the hair clip, i am thinking to cut it, since she always scratch her hair. Maybe this is not the suitable time to keep her hair.
Well, there is a lots of things to share but the most important things that i learn as a mother is every babies and kids are unique and special. They have their own development and meet milestones at their own pace. You cannot compare your kids with other kids, since they are different, and they are an individual!
My son, Muhammad Muqri is 3-year-old now.No more games of charades to decipher what he wants. No more confusing in order to received and response on his 'never-understanding' language he use.
Thanks to his improved diction and amazing grasp of grammar, so that I should be able to understand more than three-fourths of what he's saying now.
He uses longer sentences (three or more words) and a growing vocabulary (300 to 1,000 words — too many for you to count) to make himself understood.His question became more complete, longer and non-stop. And his request also became more complicated and details, and that's means i have to hear and understand what he need, also have to explain more details if that request cannot be fulfill. The reason should be reasonable, and the way to response to his need must be polite and in a good manner.
My talkative budding conversationalist loves to talk and sing. Doctor said that lengthy verbal turn-taking is a hallmark of this age. He'll be able to answer simple questions and also ask questions of his own. Sometime he cares less about the answer than keeping the conversation going. He'll begin to describe what he's seeing or doing and is starting to use words to reason things out. I noticed that he is using more adjectives (the big red car) and correct verb tenses, adding "s" and "ing" when necessary. He may still have trouble producing some sounds, especially r, l, s, and th.
Argh...one more, he has a beloved pillow (handmade by my mother), and he will asked about it when his about to going to sleep, no matter where it is. I had to retrieve it from afar more than once. Sometimes it was left at Grandma's and I had to fetch it in the middle of the night.It always made me wondering when the jig will be up. But FINALLY I got a good advice-Whatever you do — don't do anything! Children let go of security objects at different ages. Some may be ready when they start preschool; some like to carry theirs to preschool in their backpack and leave it in their cubby by day. Others continue to sleep with a special pal well into elementary school and beyond. Most children wean themselves eventually.
To avoid losing a lovey, if you haven't already, establish some rules about where the blankie or bear can and can't go. For 3-year-olds who once had unrestricted limits on where to bring a lovey, make new "big kid" rules. If it never leaves the house, it's a lot easier to find. Obviously, doctor's appointments and vacations are reasonable exceptions. (By 3, a child's chosen object is usually so well-loved and tattered it may be too late to try the ol' buy-a-replacement). Well, i think this is a good advice because it worked!! (thanks to www.babycenter.com).
Whatever it is, he is a sweet and good son. yes, sometimes he is naughty but he is a kid, and it is up to me. I pray to Allah, may all the kindness will be in his heart forever.
An old American Muslim lived on a farm in the mountains with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Qur'an. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could. One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the Qur'an just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Qur'an do?"
The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied,"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water. "The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house.The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.The old man said, "I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water.You're just not trying hard enough," and he went out the door to watch the boy try again.
At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would Leak out before he got back to the house.The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he said, "See Grandpa, it's useless!"
"So you think it is useless?" The old man said,"Look at the basket."The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out."Son, that's what happens when you read the Qur'an. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out. That is the work of Allah in our lives"

Well, here is the type of aluminium coated plastic bag from Quaker ( but you will always can use any other stuff as long as it has the same tupe of material).
Then, you can put plenty of fruits or vegetables in that plastic bag and put in the fridge. Do not fold or seal the plastic bag . Just leave it open and it will do the magic work for you.
