Laziness, go away!

Assalamualaikum, hi, ni hao!

Setelah bercutian sampai hari senin sempena Thaipusam.. inshaAllah esok akan bekerjaan seperti sedia-kala. Biasalah sebagai sorang manusia yang tak berapa nak rajin, selalunya diri selalu diselubungi rasa malas setiap kali nak pi kerja. Astaghfirullah.. instead of mensyukuri nikmat rezki pemberian Allah, kadang-kadang rasa malas tu datang tanpa diundang. Hewhew.. Ciscake je rasa malas ni. Maka dengan malasnya pi google benda-benda yang sedikit sebanyak boleh memotivasikan diri yang dilanda kemalasan ini. Makanya terjumpa a very simple yet thought-provoking reminder yang tidak semena-mena telah membuatkan diri seakan terjaga dari alam fantasi Alice in Wonderland (gittew). Semoga bermanfaat buat diri dan sesapa saja. 

Sayang!

My superwoman, my sayang dunia dan akhirat. I love you so much words can't describe.

Okbye wassalam ❤

Dear Work

Assalamualaikum, hi!

Tak sangka hari ni dah hari Ahad. Isnin inshaAllah dah start kerja. Kerja, tahukah awak perasaan orang yang cuti raya seminggu then kena pi kerja balik? Sorry in advance kerja, pastinya Isnin ni saya masih mencari-cari mood kerja, pastinya separuh hati dan jiwa saya di rumah, pada nasi impit, pada rendang, dan ayam masak kicap.. pasti saya takde mood nak layan awak kerja. Tapi jangan risau, walaupun begitu, saya masih sedar tanggungjawab saya pada awak. Untuk memastikan rezki saya adalah halal lagi diberkati, terpaksa saya kuatkan hati untuk melayan awak. Saya tak boleh ikutkan sangat perasaan. Kerja yang sambil lewa adalah kerja yang tak ikhlas. Takkan ada keberkatan didalamnya. Jadilah ia kerja yang sia-sia. Semoga Allah jauhkan saya dari sifat malas. Laziness, pi main jauh-jauh! 

Kerja, jadilah baik pada saya. Please be kind to me. Pretty please. Walaupun saya tak pasti, tapi saya agak yang saya dan kawan sekerja Farah kena balik lambat lagi setiap hari. Balik lewat.. just like the days before Ramadhan. Sepanjang bulan puasa memang ada kelonggaran balik awal. Sebab nak kejar iftar dan terawikh. After Ramadhan ni.. susah nak cakap. Tengoklah macam mana keadaan nanti. Semoga supervisor dilembutkan hati untuk tidak memberi kerja yang banyak diluar batas mampu manusia, yang boleh mengakibatkan kerja extra hours. Semoga... 

Sampai disini sajalah monolog kita pada hari ini. Sekian terima kasih. Wassalam.

Eid and Family

Assalamualaikum, hi!

I don't have fancy words. Tak sempat nak berpuisi pujangga.. Just wishing everyone, Eid Mubarak! Eid Mubarak! Selamat hari raya aidilfitri. Maaf zahir dan batin.

Alhamdulillah.. our family has come almost full circle. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah.

Kalau ada Abah memang complete satu keluarga. Tapi tak mengapa, keluarga yang Allah beri ni sebenarnya adalah anugerah tak ternilai, seadanya. Hmm.. so hard to get a complete family sticks together as one nowadays.. we are all geographically separated. Next year nanti, kakak-kakak kena beraya belah mertua. Lagi dua tahun baru dapat cukupkan semula jumlah siblings waktu raya. InshaAllah kalau masih ada umur, dua tahun lagi kita tangkap gambar cenggini kat tangga yang sama. Heh.. inshaAllah. Got to go for now. Wassalam (^_^)

I am Sam

Assalamualaikum, hi!

Yesterday was Friday. So like every Friday after work, memang akan dramatically run for the car. Nak kejar iftar dan Maghrib. Farah dah tunggu dalam kereta while I'm still in the lab, being stopped and questioned by Senior Engineer regarding some bring up drive program. Since its Friday, so it's kind of predicted to be stuck in the traffic congestion. Having that in mind, I did tried my best to explain everything that I've been working on that day in an extremely fast pace. I was in a rush. I think that Senior Engineer noticed that so he just let me go. I'm sorry man but its Friday and we need to break fast. By the time I got in the car, its 6.45. 

Even though it's expected that we cannot make it in time for break fasting, but it's still kind of sad to break fast on highway. I didn't really brought any food and both of us left our mineral water at home. Good thing Farah brought a yogurt bar. It just one piece and we split it by two. Thanks to Farah that I got to break fast in time.  Every single little thing is a blessing.

I don't know why. Semua cerita di atas tak kena mengena dengan tajuk pun. I wonder why I wrote it in the first place. LOL. Never mind. I just wanted to mention that, by the time I reached home, its already late at night. And before I go to bed, I watched this all time favorite movie I am Sam. The last time I remembered watching this movie was during Form 1 if I'm not mistaken. And like 12 years ago, this movie never fail to make me think and reflect and last but not least, cries a river. Sometimes my emotions catch me by surprise.

This scene made me smile.

One emotional scene here.

Sam: You've grown. 
Lucy: Have I? 
Sam: Yeah, 'cause your ears are bigger and your eyes are older.

This one too... heartbreaking.

Sam: Lucy belongs with me.

Rita: Why?

Sam: OK, remember when Paul McCartney wrote the song "Michelle" and then he only wrote the first part, Annie said. And then he gave that part to John Lennon, and he wrote the part that said, "I love you, I love you, I love you." And Annie said that it wouldn't have been the same song without that... and that's why the whole world cried when the Beatles broke up on April 10, 1970. 

p.s: I was like, what an answer!

Same goes to this one. Touched.

This part of the movie is so emotional too. It's when Lucy just stop reading. 

Lucy: I won't read the word! 
Sam: I'm your father and I'm telling you to read the word. Cause I can tell you to because I'm your father. 
Lucy: I'm stupid. 
Sam: You are not stupid! 
Lucy: Yes, I am. 
Sam: No, you are not stupid 'cause you can read that word. 
Lucy: I don't wanna read it if you can't. 
Sam: No, because it makes me happy! It makes me happy hearing you read. Yeah, it makes me happy when you're reading. 
Lucy: [Lucy reads again] 

This one is freaking funny. 

Joe: Do we get a balloon with these? 
Shoe Salesman: ...Yeah 
Robert: All of us or just her? 

At the end, everyone got balloon.

So I would say, parenting is never easy. Parents sometimes question their decisions and actions ever day. It just became tougher for single mother or father. It can be challenging sometimes to put emotions aside and make decisions that are best for children. It is definitely NOT easy. So when things get tough, just remember what is important, that we all love each other. I learned this from my mom though. She is my everything ❤ 

I still have lots to write, but its getting late. So for now, night and wassalam. Have a meaningful and blessed Ramadhan. (^_^)
