TIME LIKE THIS...

There are lots of things bugging in my mind rite now. Last week has been a very tiring and busy but yet enjoyable week with our dearest anak2 angkat graduation.

At the same time we are still tirelessly hunting for a new house. We had actually viewed more than 5 houses/flats but to no avail. We have checked lots of renting website, go around the neighbourhood until the kids are dizzy.... saying that we are looking for a better house which Ajmal doesn't really keen on doing so we need to 'bribe' him with bobot a.k.a sweets/candy each time we do our now routine 'house hunting' round. Fuhhhhh..... house hunting do drains you especially when you're heavily pregnant. huhuhu....

Amidst of not finding a suitable house yet (read: to our budget mostly and the location wise), we have started packing our things and belongings, hoping and praying that we'll secure one at the nick of time... after all, my tummy is getting bigger by day.... so before I can't hardly move around, I'd better get ready with all the packings. I could not imagine if my hubby has to do it on his own.. hohohoho... haruslah dia sumbat semua benda dalam bin bags nanti :D

Today, we sent Dibah at the bus station, taking perhaps her last journey from Sheffield back home. I was holding my tears, watching her go, its like a piece of my heart flies back home too. Tomorrow its Pai's turn, then on friday it will be Capau's. People do come and go, after all.. thats how its supposed to be. Disini hanya persinggahan mencari ilmu.... tiba masanya kita harus pulang utk mencurah khidmat dan bakti di tanahair. But still, after a few years having them around, being a big sis to them, them being big sis and bros to Shafiyyah and Ajmal, I can't help feeling a big hole in my heart. Frankly, I miss them already........ by end of this week, they will all be gone. On top of that, this weekend most of my friends and their family will be going for a summer camp held by Majlis Syura Muslimun (MSM) in Wales. Somehow, I felt lonely, like I'm left behind..... somehow I feel like crying.....


Owhhh.. Shafiyyah wanted soooo much to go to the summer camp since lots of her frens will be there including Jannah and Izzati. We had actually bought ready beds for Shafiyyah and Ajmal, in case we are going... but then we are more than a way not in the condition to go. Pity her... their summer holiday is just spent on boring house hunting session so far. Ibu is so sorry Shafiyyah, how I wish you can go and have a good time with your frens, how I wish we all can go... inshaAllah ibu will replace it with something else when I can.


Last few days, while I was lying in bed, lost in deep thoughts... suddenly out of the blue I heard Shafiyyah singing a carrie underwood tune of I'll stand by you.....................


ohh... why you look so sad
tears are in your eyes
come on and come to me now

don't be ashamed to cry
let me see you through
cause I've seen the dark side too

when the night falls on you
you don't know what to do
nothing you confess
could make me love u less

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you




note: I told my self, again and again, repeatedly... this is just a small test from Allah.. hang on there, keep your prayings, dont' crack under the pressure... inshaAllah everything will turn out well.

Sometimes I found myself staring at the kids sound asleep, searching for the strength that much needed.... O' Allah, please keep me on my feet and give me the strength.

STORIES OF DIFFERENT OCCASION

Kesahnyer baru upload gambar-gambar dari kamera. So hence the backdated story mory :D


STORY OF OCCASION I : FAMILY DAY AT PANDEROSA PARK

Ni citer latest lah kira. Baru sabtu minggu lepas. Ada Family Day kat Panderosa Park (which is close to our house). Meriah.... hadiah byk, makanan byk, family pun ramai yg datang. So all in all it was a very successful event. Thumbs up to the organizer. Saya tak byk sangat amek gambar coz, malaslah nak bergambar... gue' gumuk. Bak kata apam si photographer... "tak muat lah kamera kak".



adik dgn gaya pro sedang racing dgn scooter pink kakak punya. yesss... masa ni la nak try skill dok main racing kat komputer. kan adik kan.. kan....


ni masa tgh bersiap sedia nak race... kesahnyer game ni utk 3-5 tahun jer, tp ramai la pulak yg dah besar dan takde scooter nak masuk gak... habis la kalah yg kecik2 ni haaa... hehehe


"apa tengok2? kita punya scooter laju tau... ada noss" hahahahaha (begitulah gamaknyer kata adik dlm hati)


vroom.. vroom.. adik ngan hadi side by side. Siap utk berlumba walaupun dua2 dapat nombor corot...hehehe. Adik actually ada masuk lari dalam guni, tak amek la pulak gambar. Sayang betullah sbb adik melompat laju betul masa tu... kagum ibu. Group dia siap dapat 2nd place.


Yang ni pulak fashion show line up. Macam-macam pesen ada. Ultraman ada, si penjual bunga ada, princess ada, princess bride ada, spiderman ada, clon army ada... preggy mummy pun ada. serius.... anak sapa la kena paksa jd preggy tu ek. (wink-wink kat laily.....hehehehe)


kakak as a florist gal pasal tema dia patutnya "what I want to be" . Malu-malu pulak kakak.... (bakul ditaja oleh auntie kina.. hihi. arigato!)


Ni plak mujahadah sejati... siap bawak pedang ngan bendera FREE PALESTINE


owhhhh... ni champion talak juai punya. Si Mujahid Sejati Tercomel Abad Ini. Pak Aji, kita booking pak aji buat menantu ek. (hehehe... kalau ada la lepas ni dapat baby gal plak)


Shafiyyah, Jannah and Adam. All ready to strut their stuff. Jannah comel giler jadik pengantin fofular!


Si kecik Aishah pun nak join gak. Alaaa... Aishah comel banget.. pakai apa pun tetapppppp la comel kan.




STORY OF OCCASION II : FAMILY FUN DAY AT NETHERTHORPE PRIMARY SCHOOL



Bila ntah ni,lupa dah.. a few months back I reckoned. Kat skolah bebudak ni ada sort of open day for family to take part in lots of activities with the kids. Bagus jugak kan.. kalau kat Malaysia maybe susah sket nak buat kot pasal student nye ramai bebenor. We had so much fun... Ramai family datang utk take part in all of the activities. Good support from the parents. Cikgu2 kat sini pun sangat baik dan very supportive. ( I didn't say cikgu kat Msia otherwise okkkk...). Meh kita tengok la gambar2 yg sempat di snappy2 kan.




ni sesi buat muka guna tanah liat. Patutnya ayah kena buat muka adik, vice versa.. tp sbb kalau biar kat adik haruslah muka ayah jadik alien kan, so they made up only one clay face of ayah instead. Syiokkk ooo main tanah liat ni.. hihi



ni ayah tengah 'buat-buat' cam paham masa cikgu kakak tgh explain apa ntah.



adik kena paksa "mari mengenal ABC". Stress je muka adik.. hahahaha. Kalau tunjuk satu2 gitu tak berapa nak kenal sgt ABC, tapiiiiiiiii...... kalau kat keyboard komputer, laju!



kakak and her teacher, miss stimpson were doing their "monkey see monkey do" story telling. It was hilarious... siap la dengan gaya segala. Ibu dok kat depan depa tukang gelak. keskeskes....



haaaaa... ni la dia hasil keras tangan kitaorg. Yg tgh tu kakak buat muka ibu, far right plak ibu buat muka kakak andddddddd..... yg hujung sebelah kiri tu, muka ayah. Scary kan?




STORY OF OCCASION III: WESTON PARK FESTIVAL



Saje je la, one fine weekend ada festival apa ntah kat Weston Park (pun dekat ngan rumah jugak). Kitaorg pun pegi la meramaikan keadaan sebab hari tu mmg panas baekkkk punya. Not much thing.. some live music yg takde la best mana pun, antics car show and few other things yg buat budak2 excited mcm kuda pusing2 tu (lahhh.. lupa la pulak namanya), kereta pusing, aiskrim...etc.


kakak amek gambar pakai dress ala2 zaman dolu2 la kot. Yg makcik sebelah tu bukan queen elizabeth yer..hahahahaha



makcik dan pakcik yg dressing up dalam panas sambil main lawn bowling (rasanya laa..) Kalau gua dah gatal2 dah badan dlm panas dok main dengan baju tebal meleret2 tu.



kakak n adik with pudsey bear (charity bear for children hospital). NI lagi la, sure dah masak kat dalam costume tu dek kepanasan




STORY OF OCCASION IV: ROMBONGAN CIK KIAH KE YORK





Ni masa dah last b4 balik, naik boat cruise.. ok la. tp masa tu baru lepas hujan so agak sejuk sikit. (sikit ker?)



Tiga, errrrrr.... mak dara pingitan.



On the foot of tower apa tak ingat nama dia tempat org dolu2 berlindung dari musuh mereka. I like the scenery.. cantekk mcm lukisan. Very bold and beautiful gitu.



3 kids and a granny. Sila perhatikan yg depan skali tu.. ecehhh... gaya tak buleh belah... mcm gambar atok dulu2 daaaa.... ( tinggal lagi atok masa tu rambut afro la tapinya....kuang3)



A family with one 'strike a pose' daughter and one 'lepaskan sayaaaaa' son



The 'coolest' boy in Yorkshire... musti nak cool je apa2.. tak cool takmo. (cool tu apa Dik?)




The scenery from the open top double decker bus



Mari bersantai mcm dekat belakang rumah sendiri kinda style. Masa ni dah penat, stop isi minyak dengan bekalan yg dibawa.



Merpati dua sejoli... *wink*



another scenery.. breathtakingly beautiful. Cuaca yg baik hari tu was really a bonus. Kalu dah gloomy je takde la cantek mana pun kot.




ini la dia rombongan cik kiah ke York kali ini. NI masa baru sampai, lom naik bus tour tu lagik. Baru je sudah breakfast nasik lemak kat carpark. Dah org melayu kan.... nasik lemak takleh tinggal, camane pun angkut. Kang makan sandwich je haruslah perut kenyang tapi mulut tak puas... hahahahaha




ok... tu saje. Panjangnyer entry bergambar kali nih. Sampai sakit plak belakang saya ni rasanya, tapi begitu gigih sekali nampaknya.




Note: Dalam begitu banyak kekhilafan dan kesilapan diri, masih lagi rahmat Allah pada kita melimpah ruah. Pernahkah kita benar-benar mensyukuri?

" Maka nikmat tuhanmu yang manakah yang kamu dustakan?" (Ar-Rahman: 13)

p/s: InshaAllah, mari kita sama-sama perbaiki diri, menjiwai peranan.... Apa kata kita mula dengan amalan membaca Al-Mathurat atau kerapkan bangun di sepertiga malam?
