What should I do the next 8 weeks?

I woke up late this morning (well that is what I’ve been doing for the past 2 months, is this the life? NO!), and I finally got the nerve to call home office. Apparently, I can only check on it after 14 weeks right after my application date. Its been 6 weeks, so I have another 8 weeks to go?? Oh my god!!! What will I do in this coming 8 weeks (im still hoping it will get done before Christmas at least)?

Lets lay out my options:

  1. Balik Malaysia dengan menggunakan **** kecemasan (sorry cant write it properly , for security purposes)
  2. Take classes (unfortunately, Christmas is around the corner, so not many classes available. Perfect isn’t it??? Ppffftt).
  3. Entertain visitors from Malaysia? Oh my god, siapa yang nk datang?
  4. Shopping (oh yes, I would love to if I have the MONEY!!)
  5. Do nothing (seriously ill go bananas!!)
  6. Others (more options are better than just 5)….

I am not as emotional as I was a few days ago. I think im just gonna follow with the flow and breathe.. Nway, I’ve grown fond of Taylor Swift lately, and while youtubing I stumbled upon this video clip. I love it. And I hope you like it too.

im going to sleep now…… zzz

WEEKEND I LOVE

I have always loved weekends even when I’m not working. Im sure my reasons are the same as yours.

Weekend = Relax = Fun = Friends

So on Saturday morning, Kamarul came over to help me take some photos of me for my portfolio. Fortunately there were some really satisfied snaps of myself. Faezah joined us as a model, which was fun given the fact that she has a pretty face makes it even better for us photographers J. When talking about photo shoots, I am used to having Dayana as my model and she REALLY appreciated the pictures that I took. I miss having her as my cheerleader and Dayana, you will always be my model. :D

Myself and Miss Faezah

I love jumping and this is my fav kinda jump! Hahah what a weird sentence.

Then in the evening, after Dina and Pial arrived for a sleep over, we cooked dinner and shared funny stories about the past and catch up the latest gossip (haha typical girls night in!). Then the best part for the night was when we played New Moon board game and karaoke-ing, both at the same time. Memang malam yang hangat!!!! Faezah won the game even though I’ve watched New Moon for 5 times, BUT SHE WON, grrrrrrr!! It was a good board game, I was even recommended by the Hamleys cashier. Yes indeed it was fun and challenging. In a nutshell, the game was meant for you to know New Moon VERY well and to know your friends. Want to know how, go and get the game! I am hoping we could play it again when Yan is back and Marriam is free from her exams!

New Moon the twilight saga board game! We thought it was a lame game but it turned out to be an awesome game!

Sunday = Lazy = Groceries Shopping = Lazy again.

That’s the life!! Now I am watching X-factor results. I am not really watching the results, just the guest artists ~ Alicia Keys (AWESOME!) and Rihanna (Not bad). So I hope everyone enjoyed your weekend. And happy working tomorrow and have an awesome week!

Love

p/s:

Today is Nur Kasih’s final episode and I cried (A LITTLE). It was a really good finale and a good show as a whole. First time in my life I think that Malaysian actors have qualities. Remy Ishak and Tiz Zakyah made the story ALIVE! If you haven’t watch it and wish to, please see them online at http://www.tv3.com.my/ .

Do you want to live more than you should?

Yesssss finally it is Sunday, my 2nd AUD class just ended 10 minutes ago, what a relief. I am sitting on a chair in Westminster University with my lappy and a cup of hot choc. Oh heavenly student life…. Anyway,while waiting for Faezah, im going to share some Geriatrics (study of old age, x>65) with you (the chill partla, you don’t wanna know the depressing part).

I think Geriatric studies in Hearing Loss are a heavy and depressive subject to start of with. Even so, I still like it very much. I think I might do a further study on Geriatrics… yeah maybe if my brains still h the energy to learn after this AUD degree. My dad is reaching 74 and the whole time, I was thinking about him. Alhamdullah, he is still with it, healthy (as healthy as one can be at that age) and I can still communicate with him very well. Do you know that people are living longer (people that live up to 100 have doubled since 1950’s). And I don’t know if this is good or bad, women live longer than men! And apparently, a TV show called it’s only a theory (it’s quite an interesting show) in BBC, found that a person that can live up to 1000 has been born. I don’t know how to verify this theory but then again, I think its just a theory!

Let me share with you something simple. When we grow older, everything grows old too right! So a lot of changes will happen to our bodies. Our bones, heart, hearing…. vision will deteriorate (so depressing kan, accept it, it’s a FACT!), and have you realized that your taste buds and your sense of smell will grow old too? Have you ever wondered why the elderly usually smells really bad? Or their meals are too salty? That’s because their sense of smell deteriorates as well as their taste buds. They tend to lose the sweet and salty taste. So sad kan! I’ve learnt to be more understanding and I think you should too but that doesn’t give us a way to not keep up with our hygiene. Albeit, that doesn’t mean when we grow old, we cannot have fun or have a social life.  Look at this elderly rock band,  The Zimmers, if they can do it, why cant our parents/grandparents in Malaysia do it!!!

Now, since we have established that this is a very depressing topic, listen to my old time favourite song . It is called If tomorrow never comes by Joose. Most of you have heard Ronan Keating’s version.. You don’t know when you will die so, don’t forget to tell the person you love, I LOVE YOU. Even if you are young, you don’t know when you will die.

The first song i played with my guitar back when i was 14. That was 11 years ago and i still cant play well. LOL!

Okla.. Faezah is already on her way, i better go to Hamleys before she gets there first. I am getting myself Taboo!! Trying to expend my vocabulary :D

Love,

Football!

Picture 1

 

Grrr…. I didn’t watch the game, instead, I read it on Goal.com. I was trying to minimise the damage that would have caused me if they would lose. I knew it!!! EMO! I shouldn’t have read the website either but cannot la kan, I’d have to be on the same page as Ifham. Oh well, at least we are not such ’sore losers’ like Kelantan football team supporters. No offence, but it was hilarious. Of all the things that you can do, why set the chairs at the stadium on fire?? Tak sekolah!! Kan tak pasal2 kene bayar buat kerusi baru .. ngong gak aa! maaf, saya emo.

Its ok.. we will rise again, somehow! – stupid referee for giving that stupid free kick that wasn’t supposed to be.. Come on MAN U!! emoooo. Why is studying so tiring? emooo..no its not time of the month.. emoo

p/s: please ignore me. :P

Lets be grateful :D

I watched Brothers and Sisters yesterday and it had occurred to me, how fragile life is. I have been very emotional lately, due to the waiting, the distance, the illness , the pressure and what not. I just realised what I have neglected to hear something that Faezah has been trying to tell me; ‘what is not in my power, I should not be stressed about’. As much fact/true the statement is, I still can’t help but to feel damn stressed about it. It was so bad that my normal ‘monthly’ lady thing became hay wired (and I usually get it on-time).

You know, we can die anytime or get diagnosed with any scary thing at any time. When we are healthy, we keep on whining and hoping that things are better and greater. I hope I can stop whining and start being grateful that I am still alive and able to help and make people around me happy. Usually, when people know they have a few days to live, then they will start living their lives. I think that is just selfish isn’t it? Isn’t that selfish to Allah too?? This is just a thought, I know all of my friends are working hard to live and are doing as much to be a good human and hamba ALLAH. I am writing this to remind myself, rather than sulking, wasting time, I should get my bum to work on something, something that will help me for my future and I should be happy….. cause life is too short to be unhappy.

Lets be grateful and be happy.. whatever happens, we are still alive and kicking! If things don’t go your way, find another way to make the best of the outcome. Live your day as though you can die tomorrow (I know, dramatic right? But seriously, if we have that in mind, everyday we will be so full of energy and obviously closer to god).

Lets try…..

New Chapter

The beginning of this new chapter is looking pretty good, fast paced and challenging. I might have to cut out some activities I’ve been involved with and concentrate on my priorities. I haven’t started work and my wallet is leaking pretty quickly. There is so much responsibilities to handle being a grown up but I am trying to survive. InsyaALLAH I will start work soon, Amin :) .

I had my second open house at Kak Farah’s on Saturday. I think this is the most undesirable Raya I’ve ever had, subdued and not much food fed into my tummy. But I still have a week left, so hopefully next week, I would enjoy more food ☺. UMNO is having their open house on Sunday and we (Marr, Suraya, Mira, Faezah, Liza and myself) are having our open house on Saturday from 5pm till late. You are all cordially invited but please RSVP ;) .

Eid 2009 2Kak Farah, Kak Ramona, Myself and Adilla Long.

Anyway, I had my first AUD class last week (Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday) and it was excellent. Although I felt a little left out, being away from school for a year had made me a little slow up there. Nevertheless as I said it was excellent, my lecturer for this module is called Charles Berlin @ Chuck, who is a famous Audiological Scientist. He has done important work in animal hearing and vocal output, human cerebral organization for speech perception, electro-cochleography and Auditory Brainstem Response, Otoacoustic Emissions, and has discovered a rare form of hearing loss called ultra-audiometric hearing. But the best part is, he is also a very very very famous Jazz pianist back in Florida and New Orleans. He soooo have given me the motivation to be a good musician and an awesome audiologist. SEMANGATTTT!

ANYWAY, New moon is coming out next monthhhh!!! CEPAT LAAAA!! After I’ve finished reading Breaking Dawn, I took a break from reading. It was just sad to start anything new, I was emotionally attached to twilight. But the long rest has its end, Im starting a new saga called Wicked Lovely. It’s about a fairy romance novel, lets see if it will give me the same impact as Twilight heeehehe.. Ok, I think I should go and take a shower, Faezah is bringing back lunch yummmm then we can do some gardening. The sweetness of unemployment, hope it wont last any longer..

Why i get sore hands and still love it.

I’m so edgy today. The thought of changes made me feel a little ill today. I am trying my best to keep myself composed. I’ve done my part in this changing bit but if people don’t want to help me, what more can I do? Frustrated. Still hopeful. Perhaps, its nearly time of the month, where my emotions are just everywhere LOL.. I can’t imagine being pregnant, I already feel sorry for my future hubby :P . I Hate Changes period! Somehow I feel old, only old people hate changes.…  am i?Daymmm

 Ok.ok. Enough of my messed up feelings, let’s talk about the new sport that I’ve challenge myself with, this time. I just can’t stay still can I? Starting this week, every Monday evenings, I will be at a primary school for an ‘extra’ curricular activity. Hold on, im not that dodgy,.. I have enrolled myself to an Aerial class. So last Monday, we started of with Trapeze. It was sooooo cooooolllll!! I thought I’d only watch them on TV on cirque du soleil or concerts (ie: Pink and Britney). I managed to do a few really cool  beginners tricks, yeay. My instructor, Iggy (comel kan nama dia) will let us take photos for during the next practise. So hopefully, i’ll share my progress with you, when I have the time k! Even though I had fun, I ended up with sore hands (as expected) and a tone tummy, (but it vanished right after I had food). Ahhaha .. So here are some pictures for you to imagine in your mind.. Just imagine me on it, till I have my own photos :D :D:D!
