Imagine

Im a big fan of GLEE.

And this is one of my favourites!

Jangan gah sangat dengan apa yang awak ada sekarang.

Bila-bila masa saja Allah boleh tarik balik semua nya.

Hargai lah apa yang awak ada, jangan sia-siakan.

Ingat, Allah akan tunjuk semuanya, kita tunggu saja bila masanya.

Sepandai tupai melompat, akhirnya akan jatuh ke tanah juga.

Jadi, berpada-pada lah.

You know you've grown up when you...

Saw 40-50% off on all already reduced items on clothes. Beautiful, gorgeous clothes. You let your hands touch the soft, silky top, and gleaming with happiness (quietly) when you saw the price tag. Made a mental note to self: MUST.GET.THIS but then you walk away thinking, I'll come back if I don't find anything else better.

Then you saw 30-40% off on regular priced items on Corningware. Clean, white, heavy stoneware casserole dish. You go mad. You immediately call out your husband, of course with gleaming with happiness face again and say, "Can we buy this please pretty please? I can use this to put my roast chicken!" And make some hand gesture, for him to visualize and said, "Cantikkan?" And finally, made the purchase without making a mental note! And I even throw in a bath towel while I'm on my way to the counter. Crazy.

I drooled in front of beautiful, delicate china today. And hubby went, "Hah. Teringin lah tu." Just as how I used to do in front of shoes. Funny how things go around.

Of course, I'd be lying if I say I didn't browse on clothes etc at all. But all I did was just browse. But when it comes to other things, the things my girlfriend once said to me, "Oh lepas kawin mmg akan tgk barang rumah je eh?" things, I'll go mad and just buy without even thinking. Sometimes. I always have excuses like, I need this for this... or we dont have that yet... Excuses that I used to use when I want to buy more clothes, more shoes and more bags. Hahaha

To tell you the truth, Im more than happy to spend my money on the home wares and kitchenwares nowadays. I do feel sad, like Ive lost some part of me, of who I used to be. Dont get me wrong, I still do shop, all the girly stuff, but I still have to buy other things too. Imagine half of the things I brought back from our holiday trip last month was spatulas, wok, dish brush, spoons, aprons, tea towel among other things. Weird, no?

But all in good cause.

Yesterday, we went out and did our regular Saturday routine. Berjalan-jalan tanpa hala tuju, "window shop" and what not. When we got home, hubby said, "Tengok, semua barang-barang awk je ni ha" "E ehh. Tadi beli barang-barang jahit, and bath mat je tau. Untuk guest toilet. You see there? I spent my money for our house, bukan untuk diri sendiri." And believe it or not, I did not even step into a single shop that sells clothes, shoes or bags! Bravo to me!

But then again, I do make some "little"purchases to indulge myself once in a while teheeeee ;)

I may have grown up a little bit, but Im still a girl ;)

New.Year.

Happy 2011 everyone!

I hope its not too late to wish all of you a good year ahead. May you have a blessed and joyous year.

a note

Came across this note in FB, and just wants to share it in here for you, as well for my own personal reference.

Mengapa Hawa tercipta saat Adam tertidur dan Hawa melahirkan saat dirinya terbangun?

Seorang laki-laki jika dia kesakitan, maka dia akan membenci. Sebaliknya wanita, saat dia kesakitan, maka semakin bertambah sayang dan cintanya,, Seandainya Hawa diciptakan dari Adam As saat Adam terjaga, pastilah Adam akan merasakan sakit keluarnya Hawa dari sulbinya, hingga dia membenci Hawa. Akan tetapi Hawa diciptakan dari Adam saat dia tertidur, agar Adam tidak merasakan sakit dan tidak membenci Hawa. Sementara seorang wanita akan melahirkan dalam keadaan terjaga, melihat kematian dihadapannya, namun semakin sayang dan cinta nya kepada anak yang dilahirkan bahkan ia akan menebus nya dengan kehidupannya.

Sesungguhnya Allah menciptakan Hawa dari tulang rusuk yang bengkok yang tugasnya adalah melindungi Qalbu(jantung, hati nurani). Oleh karena itu, tugas Hawa adalah menjaga qalbu. Kemudian Allah menjadikan nya bengkok untuk melindungi qalbu dari sisi yang kedua. Sementara Adam diciptakan dari tanah, dia akan menjadi petani, tukang batu, tukang besi, dan tukang kayu. Wanita selalu berinteraksi dengan perasaaan, dengan hati, dan wanita akan menjadi seorang ibu yang penuh kasih sayang, seorang saudari yang penyayang, seorang putri yang manja, dan seorang istri yang penurut.

Dan wajib bagi Adam untuk tidak berusaha meluruskan tulang yang bengkok tersebut, seperti yang dikabarkan oleh Nabi Muhammad SAW, “jika seorang lelaki meluruskan yang bengkok tersebut dengan serta merta, maka dia akan mematahkannya.” Maksud nya adalah dengan kebengkokan tersebut adalah perasaan yang ada pada diri seorang wanita yang mengalahkan perasaan seorang laki-laki.

Maka wahai Adam janganlah merendahkan perasaan Hawa, dia memang diciptakan seperti itu. Apabila seseorang wanita mengatakan dia sedang bersedih, tetapi dia tidak menitikkan airmata, itu berarti dia sedang menangis di dalam hatinya. Apabila dia tidak menghiraukan kamu setelah kamu menyakiti hatinya, lebih baik beri dia waktu untuk menenangkan hatinya sebelum kamu meminta maaf. Dan wanita sulit untuk mencari sesuatu yang dia benci untuk orang yang paling dia sayang ...

Harini hari minggu!

Stressss sbb taktau nak buat apa. Mood yg sgt tak best, sbb benda yg plan berminggu2 tiba2 tak buat sbb benda bodoh. Sakit nya hatiiiiii.

Dah lah lapar, tapi takde mood punya pasal, jadinya tak makan lah. Rasa nak lari je dari rumah sekejap. Boleh? Nak pegi menghirup udara segar sorang-sorang, tenangkan fikiran. Boleh? Boleh ke tak ni???

First time rasanya post yg emo. Ke penah je before this?

breathe in, breathe out

Cepatnyaaa time flies! Its already the second week of Ramadhan, and I can barely breathe.

I planned to finish off all my sewings/tempahan BEFORE Ramadhan starts, but Im still halfway. Sigh.

I planned to make some kuih for berbuka everyday, yet until now habuk pun tarak. Semua frozen, or beli from Kak Norzie, aka akak kueh "bazaar".

I planned to make kuih raya on the second week, but langsung tak start lagi. Next week maybe?

I look forward to weekends even more so now, because my weekdays has been pretty much packed. With what, you asked? Just to keep it short and sweet; babysitting, sewing, house chores, melayan "bonda", cook, and lately, masak for jualan utk berbuka.

My day starts at 9am (I know its not THAT early), but it ends around 10-11pm. (Bare in mind I have no rest at all in between). And then starts again at 4.30am. It has been none stop for the past 2 weeks or more, and my body aches all over. I am not complaining though. I love what Im doing right now, keeping myself busy and take my mind of things. But sometimes I do miss the couch, just relaxing during the day watching TV hehehh

But then again, my weekends is more hectic and tiring than weekdays! Shall start tomorrow from sahur, straight until evening, or maybe until terawih? Thinking about it makes me nervous, scared and tired already!

Seriously, I felt at ease right now because I have another 30 minutes to spare before I go and pick up hubby from work. Pity him, everyday he comes home late. And today, he asked me to pick him up at 8pm. Yes people. 8 PM. We broke fast alone for the past 2-3 days. Sunyiiiiii.

Raya is around the corner, our baju raya is still in a form of cloth. Pray for me I have enough time to make it ready by raya.

Ok my time is up. Better kemas sikit2 akibat ribut hasil 2 budak yg naughty tadi. So toodles people! And selamat berbuka orang2 di Malaysia, since its 7.35pm already ;)

And oh yeah, since it is still not too late, Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan! Jom tambah amal ibadat jom!

Update: Hubby just called and asked me to pick him up at 9 instead!!!
