my life so far...

While waiting for hubby to pick me up, I decided to do some updates for the blog. Many good months have passed and life was nothing but a roller coaster ride. It’s like having so many things to be accomplished simultaneously. But, praise to Allah, everything went just fine. After struggling for a few months doing the thesis, it was finally completed last month, and the viva session was not really that bad after all. Also, my study came to an end in the same month as well, which means I no longer have to go back to UTM and leave my loved ones over here. Yeay! I’m done with the exams, assignments, etc….

The wedding, despite the last minute preparation, was smooth sailing as well. Imagine, having to do this in 2 weeks! –tempah pelamin, jahit baju nikah, distribute card, hantaran, gifts, kemas bilik, and many more. Even a day before the nikah, dgn selambanya aku masih lagi keluar rumah to get the baju nikah. Mom, and my relatives were furious because according to the tradition those who will tie the knot should be quarantine for at least 1 week.

Heheh..Alhamdulillah, yours truly is now married to the man of her dreams. And she is a very happy lady now, although it does feel a bit weird once in a while being called Puan. Ehem, tua sgt la pulak terasa. I’ll be 27 this year. Good questions to ponder: how far have I reached my goal in life or am I really 27 then why do I feel like I’m only 17 today? I guess most probably because one of my students told me I look like I’m 18. Hahaha..suka, suka… Anyhow, there are few things that aku terkilan x sempat nak buat masa wedding due to time constraints and everything was so kelam kabut. One of it was unable to send invitation to friends via email. Ada yg sempat pos, I did mail them my card. But, apparently some of them ada yg aku x sempat nak anta email.


Workwise –I’ve started working a week after my wedding which is quite a rush, x sempat nak hilang penat study, pegi conference, and of course the wedding punya penat pon extreme gak. Anyhow, dah kena start lapor diri, so I have to go to the office. Bad news is I have to start teaching 2 subjects this semester and one of them is a new subject so I have to prepare all the lecture notes and the hardest part is to create my own syllabus. Apa lagi suka ati akula jwbnya bt nota utk students. Ntahla….Want to know some more bad news? Well, its already the 3rd week of the semester, so I have to replace few lectures to finish up the syllabus. Could somebody please spank me, coz I still feel like I’m dreaming all these..In fact, earlier today, I had lab replacement because the students wont be around next week due to CNY so they decided to do the exp today. The thing is, I was so unprepared for the lab so it was quite a disaster when the students did the lab. 2 unsuccessful experiments, and 1 went wrong because of me (at the end of the exp). How do I justify my mistake? Because I’m new? King kong la…

And some more the lab assistant left me with the students just like that when in fact I think he should be around in case anything goes wrong. The reason being he’d done the lab in the past and he knows better than me. Yeah, of course he knows better, my knowledge at that time was more or less the same with the students. I forgave him for coming late but pls be around next time. Aiya…tension jugak nih…Everything went haywire today, well to be honest, it feels like walking on a tight string everyday. Salah pilih profession ke aku nih? Can I be a good lecturer? Luckily the students were a bit supportive and eager to learn so they tried to do the lab twice. How nice eh, so most probably I’ll give more credits on that or maybe a full mark for their 1st lab report. They deserve it, don’t they?

Hubby, where ru? I feel like going home and sleep the whole day. Please fetch me now….

Sahur

Having sahur with Su and Zu just now reminds me of what it was like to have sahur with friends during my years in UTP. We had leftovers of berbuka. There was a time when mira and I have only super ring to eat during sahur. Now, my dearest friend mira is happily married and blessed with beautiful daughter. Well, life as a student can be that simple. You have to live with what you have. I’m not complaining, it’s just nice to be able to look back and YES experiencing again of what it was like being a student some time ago. And now, things are sort of a rewind of my younger days. Why I say its nice. It makes us realized that most of the things in life come in just a spur of moments, and whether it is a joyful or terrible experience we still need to accept it as it is. Because time will never wait for us, not even a second. Therefore, live the moment and treasure it.

In few weeks to come, God’s willing; I’m no longer a student. There will no more afternoon sleeps, laying around on friends’ bed talking about guys (hehe!), and of course other things as well, sharing foods, or even complaining about supervisor! My journey will be further extended be it in my career or personal life, moving forward from being a student into a teacher and the biggest leap in my life is definitely leaving my singleton zone. Adrenaline rush is making me even more impatient of what is install in the near future. Heck, let’s just wait till the day comes heh.

Anyhow, I haven’t sleep yet after correcting the paper. Need to crash now. Adieu.

Ramadhan

Now that ramadhan is here, I'd like to wish all of u selamat menjalani ibadah puasa.

Been really really quiet for the past few mths. Urs truly is so tight up with studies. However, hopefully by end of this yr everything will be sort out. Workwise and personal stuffs as well. Pls pray that I'll finish up my thesis as soon as possible, get home quickly and proceed with the wedding preparation, and join the conference. Sounds greedy huh, but yeah talk about multitasking these days, I'm living it. Hehe. This three major events in my life will take place in just a month away. So, it feels like I'm facing katrina and rita at the same time. Yes, thats how it feels now. And I'm hanging on to a very thin stick, alone, in the middle of nowhere. Fighting the winds and tidals with only hope and love to keep me alive. I'm gonna make it through. I will. I must.

I can smell happiness from a distance. Its getting nearer! =)

Later peeps!

Distress Call?

Dr. Hanapi gave a me quick call on tuesday evening wanting to know my progress on the report. I feel like jumping off my seat looking at the name appeared on the screen. Hahaha, so I didnt take the call. Purposedly. Hehe, selambe ja aku nih. I called him back the next day telling him the not so impressive work I did so far. Hehe, well what else should I say to him, kalau bukan "belum siap lagi la dr. baru nak masuk chapter 2". Erks, that lines make me wanna jump off from my window or at least bang my head againts the wall. How am I supposed to be good lecturer if my attitude towards my study is somewhat frustrating?

Anyhow, I received another frustrating yet challenging news from Dr. Hanapi. He wanted me to present my paper end of this yr at an international conference held at ums, organized by my department. I was like alamak... I am supposed to be back earlier at the office to help organize the event and on top of that I too have to present my own research work most probably in front of my boss and superiors. Adoi!!! *tepuk dahi* And my first task is to submit my abstract tomorrow which was supposed to be sent to ums before the end of this mth. Last but not least, my lab work should start as early as next week, coz I should have a data collection for at least a month or 1 1/2 month of lab work. I'll be needing it a lot for the discussion part and proceed with the poster later on. This should be ready by August. Well, nampak gaya plan nak extend study x jadi la (more time for honeymoon *wink*), coz I need to complete the research work by end of the semester.

With the study and everything going on at the same time frame, I sure hope I can manage my time well so at least some preparation for the wedding can be done. He'll be coming again this august, so we are hoping we could some shopping for the hantaran this time around. Furthermore, we didnt take the kursus kawin yet and we intend to do that in august too. Aduh, pening kepala ku..I hope my lab work, results and discussion part, poster as well as some of the wedding plan should be ready by August. Amin. Gosh, think I'm moving at speed 8 now. So fast, scary but lil' bit exciting I guess. Hehe..


So, I'm off to books again. Adieu.

Hola!

With less than 3 weeks from the 1st semester 2005/2006, I should by right understand why am I worrying so much. Firstly, my long overdue proposal is a piece of cr*p now as I only managed to type a 1 page report for this month when in fact it should have been more than that -Dr.Hanapi wants it to be ready up to chapter 1. So how? I'm getting married in less than 5 months with zero preparation as of now. Hehe, should I be panicking on this too?? Work hype - the dept will be organizing an international conference late this yr and the scary part is they all wanted me to come back as soon as i'm done with my masters due to the pressure on the workload as many lecturers now are on study leave. Isk, escape ja nda buleh ka? hehe.. I bet its gonna be a helluva tough time for me towards the end of this yr juggling between study - getting married- work. Mana nak pk thesis, presentation, exam, kawin, prepare utk conference, lecture notes for students pon ntah bila nak buat.

Lets just hope my sanity will not fade away and my strength grows stronger. I still need to stay focus with my study and at the same time do some preparation for the wedding. Mana2 yang sempatla. Any tips? Buleh ka cenggitu? Kena bulehkan eh. Hehe, yes looking forward to be with him (very!) :P. Well, its gonna be fun living with your love ones, embarking a new journey in life but it is also scary to think of all the responsibilities and all the extra baggage that comes along with it. Erks, am I absolutely ready for this?

Its 10 mins past 4 pm. She is probably resting at home by now. I went to Senai airport at noon to sent a dear friend, noremah whose on her way back to kk. Hmm, I miss sabah... and I'm left all alone at the hostel. Dekat aras 3, ada satu bilik je occupied by other student and then i stay kat row hujung. The rest are emptied. Gulpp! Seram pulak biler pikir.

Until then. Adieu.

Endless Trip

I only have 5 mins to blog, so will make it really quick. Sorry, forgot to update on the accident thingy. But, dun think I should by now. Such an old news already.

Went to USM Penang for a 2-day seminar by PEMADAM on the 26th till 29th of March with my beloved friends (budak2 aras 6). We are not exactly a member of this club but Mr.Zul's invitation to join this trip was quite tempting, and since we are done the final exams already so we figured why not. Attended by representatives from 17 universities all over our country and it was..hhmm..ok-lah since I got to meet new friends and visit few places in penang.

Then, had a short trip to Tanjung Leman and mandi-sakan kat Air Terjun Kota Tinggi on the 1st and 2nd April. We had a blast during this trip, though we had to do our picnic kat rumah cikgu in mersing due to heavy rains. We could only go to Tg Leman the next morning. So much for April Fool heh? =) Nemmind la, it was worth the 2 hrs ride. And, on the very next day too, right after our short visit to Tg Leman (20 mins away from rumah cikgu), we went to Air Terjun Kota Tinggi. Sejukkkla mandi. Heheh..*see pic**

Am going to pack my belongings now, will be leaving for kk on tue. Hmmm, cepatnya abis sem nih. Yay! cant wait to go home now.

Adieu.
