The 30th September 2012



The 30th September
We love 15 so much that we decided to have the Lipis reception 15 days after our nikah day. So, on the 29th September, the first 2 cars – Triton with ambok umi and cik dalek – City with Ica zahdah and yours truly, started the journey to Bibik’s house in Bangi. My husband was from Kuantan, so we decided just to meet there in Bangi. Before slept, Radiah managed to put on some henna on my hands. Anyway, next morning, we were all set to Kuala Lipis for the first time except for my husband of course. We led the convoy and we had to drive very slowly as there were 5 cars altogether. 

Again, I hate the nervous feeling and I tell you what, this time was even worse. Haha. I know I should not feel this way but even my 2-weeks-old-husband can read it straight away from my face. He asked me to chill and relax as this time, the people would not be as many as our first reception. 

Honestly, I was nervous as I would be meeting all his family members and relatives. As a person who likes to think about useless things so much, that was quite scary. Plus, I would be left alone by my family here in Lipis. Sob sob. Since I went home in 2008, I was always stuck with them, but now, I would be here without them. Can you see how mengada I am?

However, Alhamdulillah, the warm welcome of the husband’s family, which is now my family too, changed everything. We went to the hall at 1 and again, I still did not eat. Haha. Now I felt how rugi I was not to eat all those special made food for bride and groom. We did not have the bersanding ceremony here so it was a quick reception. Around 2 plus, my family members were ready to go back. Well, I did not feel sad as what I had thought. Haha. After sending them off, we continued to entertain the guests. 

Again, thank you so much for those who were there on our second reception.
Around 3 plus, the reception was officially over. Here came the most anticipating part – the outdoor photography session. We did not have our outdoor session in Johor due to time consuming, so Alhamdulillah we got slightly longer time for that here in Lipis. 

Firstly, we were brought to a railway. I would say the view is spectacular. I did not know that I still feel shy to look at my husband’s eyes when we were told to do so by the 2 photographers, Fadhli and Afrozaini. Haha.

Suddenly my husband came out with kinda crazy idea, that was taking pictures in the middle of the Kuala Lipis town. I did not mind as I was very sure the locals did not know me so yeah I agreed. We took photo at the stone that I really like (the Kuala Lipis 0 km stone) . We also got a perfect picture in the middle of the road, which was taken in less than 10 second. We had to wait for the road to be cleared from any cars,  so yeah, I had to run a bit with my heels and gown. Nevertheless, we had so much fun! 

The best part was when the locals keep saying hye and waving their hands, wishing us congratulations even they did not even know us. One Indian uncle also told my husband to take care of me very well and we were touched by that. See, more people are praying for us! Alhamdullillah. Taking pictures in the middle of the town was not a bad idea at all, my dear husband! I extremely love it =)

We went home around 6 plus. For the first time, we had our dinner together that night. All of us were there. Abah, Mak, Along, Kaklong, Abede, Ateh, Adik and of course Damia. Abah kinda gave a short and sweet speech welcoming me to the family and asked Abede to recite doa. I really, really feel blessed and grateful at that very moment. Alhamdulillah and I could not thank more. 

Welcome to the Wan Zainudin’s family, Kak Ngah! =D

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 –...
