what a snowy day!




the title was taken from asma's status in ym at the moment this post is typed..
nana is coming back from home already..the 3 girls have moved in to the new crib
alhamdulillah..everything's great now...

so today...kak yati and family(abg zaidi, cutey nazlaa and chicky naurah), lan,ella,kak syira, kak han, diana, asma, nana and me were having sooooooo much fun with snow at the whakapapa village (i remmbered iylia or rahmat accused me of saying such a bad word during our sweet,memorable autumn 2006 trip..well..wh is pronounced as"f" here in new zealand..haiya..ape la u guyss)

we left our homely hamilton around 6.50...a bit late from the promised time that is 6.30..hihi..well..malaysian is always malaysian rite..no offence =p
we arrive the whakapapa village around 11.00, when all the empty-stomach-from-the-early-morning- are singing the hungry-mungry song
after we isi tangki with the spaghetti, bihun goreng and nasi goreng, we went to the whakapapa information center (was it, guys?) and the lady told us we are not advised to go up due to the fact of bad weather..disappointedly, we went down to the golf course and guess what..its snowyyyyy!!

well..its gonna be my last winter in New Zealand and I tell you what..it was the best snowwy day i ever had..

'great' weather + awesome accompany + good food = perfect

Sedih

Assalamualaikum people Yes, as the entry said, I am terrified. My parents, my sister and I went to Hospital Sultanah Aminah today to visit my aunt, Fu Saleha. And to tell you the truth, I did not even know why she was there All I know was, the pain was something to do with her ulcer in the stomach She collapsed and admitted to ICU yesterday and Alhamdulillah she was moved to normal ward today Looking her lying lethargically, with all her children (except one,Amri, who was on his way all the way from London) around her, most of them with red and teary eye, was just a heartache. And for the first time in my life, I saw my uncle hugged my dad, tightly and cried on my dad's shoulder. It was like I was watching another soap drama. And the only major difference was, it happened to people I know I was bitting my lips, trying hard to hold back the tears أَذْهِبْ الْبَاسَ رَبَّ النَّاسِ , وَاشْفِ أَنْتَ الشَّافِي , لا شِفَاءَ إِلا شِفَاؤُكَ شِفَاءً لا يُغَادِرُ سَقَمًا “Ambillah penyakit Ya...

Cikgu Elun?

Assalamualaikum The kid:what is rumah panjang, kak elun? Me: err..its like a row of houses..long houses..where more than 40 families live under the same roof..but then they have divider for each house..we can find it in Sabah or Sarawak, but not in Semenanjung The kid: What is Sabah, kak elun? *cane nk jawab ek* Me:err..its ok..one day, I will bring the Malaysia map and we will learn some places in Malaysia, ok? Well, that was part of the conversation we had today. I have to teach Bahasa Melayu to this eight year old kid. I would say his mother tongue is New Zealand English because he was born here, in Kiwi land. Since then, he went back to Malaysia just for a few times. So, it is understandable if he could not speak malay as the other malay kids at his age.Its quite fun though, because usually you learn english and have to translate it to malay in order to make you understand. But, in this situation, I have to translate the Malay word to the English word. Its like the other way around...

5 things I do remember about my past Ramadhans

Assalamualaikum people Ramadhan 1425 @ October 2005 1. The kind hearted mix Maori-Pakeha makcik Dewan Makan would make my food ready for both breaking fast and sahur. 2. Sometimes, Kak Lane would fetch me at hostel and she would cook great dishes and we ate together with Syed as well 3. If there was no invitation from Kak Lane, Syed, Abg Ziad or Kak Pica, yes, I would sahur, buka puasa and terawih alone..yes people, alone, in Room 48 of Moginie Hall 4. I hardly cried because I was counting days to go home on the 5 th of Syawal, right after my final exams. Yes, we did have exams on Hari Raya Pertama. 5. It was hard and quite challenging as people around you did not fast. Not many Moslems around, Malaysians laaaagi la takde. But, Alhamdulillah, it was such a beautiful memory and hey, I did survived! Ramadhan 1426 @ October 2006 1. I was not alone anymore!!! There were 8 of us berbuka puasa bersama –...
