missing here and there
...In the Name of ALLAH...


it's 2.40 am...and i'm still not asleep...

i returned home and there they were, mounts of unread emails and notifications in facebook. got tagged in a note from faraway pao..."the girls i miss"...aawwhhhh, somehow i found it hilarious that she missed my unexpected laugh when watching funny videos. i thought it's annoying for some people. LOL. starting from that moment, my heart told me, 'hey, you too miss your friends a lot, don't you'. subsequently, i sent a msg to my best friend, ym msgs to several other buddies, got a long call from old girlfriend. i miss you guys, my dear friends...here and there...

healing boredness
...In the Name of ALLAH...


2 weeks in Malaysia already.

i just went back from summer training camp (STC) at batang kali selangor last weekend, as an ajk. truthfully i didn't have any slight idea how to handle a camp at a campsite/hutan area. pergi ikut flow je la, bak kata orang. sampai2 aje, tengok2 dinner dah tersedia. well, biasa la kan bila makanan sedap dah terhidang depan mata, semangat pun naik la berkobar-kobar. thanks a lot makcik2 pakcik2 catering yg masak + sediakan meals ktorg, cayalah! overall, camp ni berjalan lancar dan dapat respon yg agak baik eventho ada problem datang menjenguk2 jugak. i like dr. adnan's kuliah subuh and tazkirah maghrib. terkesan sungguh la dengan elaboration beliau about ummul-quran which is surah al-fatihah, and kisah para sahahat rasulullah s.a.w. kalau nak cerita kat sini, maaf i didn't remember all details. also, sangat happy with ukhuwah among sisters yg hadir since most dah kenal2 masing2. yg jauh dapat didekatkan, yg sedia dekat makin rapat hatinya, insha-Allah. we played simple games, but really havoc. what best, jmpa geng2 satu kepala korea + jepun, apa lagi tak usah cakaplah. kami serasi bersama. cewahh...

since it's already late for me to go back home on sunday evening after camp, i went back to my uncle's house in puchong, selangor. immediately i sent proposal to some friends for a friendly meet somewhere in kl. discuss punya discuss (sampai credit turun almost rm10...lol), jmpa la khalis fakhirah mior joe yesterday at midvalley. also terserempak with bo0n and nass. imagine this, every 2 hours we looked for food. first, laksa shack (sedap woo laksa johor kat situ), then delifrance (share2 soup + baguette), and finally secret recipe (some had dinner, some had cakes/brownies). really really enjoyed those times la, sangat sedap and full though money pun flowing out like air paip kat toilet the gardens's. got myself a book, The Keeper, at mph. then, got my eyes on this 1 Guess bag, red color. adorable, mior pun approve. but alahaiii...lagi mahal than USA, tapi bila search kat online store takde pulak huhu...

now, back at home in front of my lappie. 103 unread in inbox, and ada news tak best from mara, kena pulak mail academic transcript for summer courses. Allah, lupa!! sigh... then 2 invitations to a summer camp at mersing and a motivation stuff at old school. no confirmation yet, since there would be a family camping trip sometime later. sorry guys, later sikit ok.

thinking on how to spend my time in malaysia efficiently, meaningfully....

all about zufairy...
...In the Name of ALLAH...


*i dedic8 this entry specially to my dear nephew*

khairien zufairy bin muhammad khaizir
born on August 15, 2008 by 2.2 kg. A newborn that brought happiness and gratitude to my dear family, he's the first grandson, first great grandson for my mom's family side, first son, first nephew. I still remember him being all red, small and fragile baby, that it seemed almost impossible for me to hold him in my hands. 2 weeks, and it was time for me to go back to college. That was last summer.

few hours after born

I spent time to know zufairy by looking at his pictures my bro-in-law sent me through flickr. He's very much growing up with chubbier cheeks, more hair, tahap kecomelan pun bertambah berganda-ganda. My parents told me about his keletah and how peramah he is. zufairy greets everyone in the family every time he sees them, and he already can recognize them. Mama cakap,"Tok Bah favorite dia, suka sangat dia main dengan tok bah." Yep, I agree with that, my dad sangat suka baby. They gave me listen to recordings of zufairy's greetings and babies' talk. Nevertheless, never once I watched a video recording as they never have chance to show me one. I could only imagine how he was... This was before I went back home again this year.

aidilfitri 2008...with his parents

How about this summer, 2009? On the day I reached ground (oh it's been a long flight), I went to my sis's home. And there he was, 11-month baby zufairy! He looked so different from the last time I saw him live. What makes me almost rolling on the floor laughing is that zufairy can "Cakkk..." to us. He tilted his head a little to either side and then, "cakkk!". Maju sungguh, he can imitate things we do, including bunyi ayam berkokok. Adorable! zufairy sangat peramah, suka buat bunyi2 random, and he rarely merajuk or cries out. One of the babies yang sangat baik. Yesterday we dropped at my sis's house again, and at the sight of my youngest bro, zufairy tersenyum lebar and melompat2 girang. Wow, he really likes my bro. And now, he' s starting to know me as well as I am, sometimes I think how unfortunate I am for not getting to watch him growing up in front my my very eyes...but I'm really grateful to be his aunt...ahhh, I'm growing older!!

look! he even shows his cute rabbit teeth there!

~Grow up, grow up into a good and soleh person, zufairy!~
