December has come again. Today, is the 335th day of the year. It has been almost a year since I went home for good. My final flight from Auckland Airport to KLIA was on the 15h December 2008. How time flies. There are sooooooooo many things have happened through out this one year. A lot of things. Culture shock, weather shock, new friends, friendship, relationship, kpli troublesome yet awesome life, last but not least, adapting life back with family, after so much ‘freedom life’..hehe.. Well, at least I cried less this year. I love that part. Its not that I love to cry so much before, but cry is one of things that I could do to lease my sadness, anger, disappointment, homesick and all the negative feelings. Less cry = less negative feeling. So, that’s the feeling of being home. Alhamdulillah. Some people asked me, do you miss New Zealand? People who close to me, they will know how I am missing New Zealand terribly. NZ has been home for me for about 4 years. 4 years did not sound long e...

Assalamualaikum people As what my sister have wrote for her status the other day, last weekend was my cousin’s engangement in Pasir Gudang (Congratulationssssss Yuhan! ), then, this week will be Ammar Darwish’s kenduri cukur jambul in Teluk Ramunia of Kota Tinggi. The weekend next will be the other cousin of my’s wedding. We celebrated the first day of Raya at kampong together with Wang, Fuang Umi, Fuang Baba, Bachok and Cik’s Family. I felt soooooo happy that I have got the chance to hear the takbir again, here in kampong..after years of Arabic’s takbir back in New Zealand. Since the house is just next to the surau, we can hear the sound very clearly. After that, around 3.30 pm, we were packing back to our own house in Pekan Nenas. On the way back, we managed to snap a family photo in the studio.. Yay!!! and here is the latest picture of Hanaffi’s & Co =D Oh ya..another remarkable thing during this Syawal was I joined my childhood friend’s Raya Convoy. It has been 12 years sin...

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 –...

Assalamualaikum Actually I have few drafts that I haven’t finished yet But I think I want to write a letter tonight Since someone did an entry about missing me ( click here ), I have decided to write a letter to that someone special. Assalamualaikum Farhana Coincidently, I have read again the letter you gave me last Saturday night. Strange, funny little thing right? We were reminiscing of the same thing hana! I miss the time when we solat jemaah together almost everytime and of course reading the maksurat together (which hardly be done here =(). Mase usrah di bilikku yang best tu, sambil korang membaca-baca nota-nota akak di dinding, di pintu wardrobe dan di depan meja study..hehehe When we were housemates, sometimes, I thought you are matured than me. Especially when the time I got a lil bit crazy (hehe..seperti gedik terlebih dan sebagainye..). I miss it when you were ‘yelling’ at us when hani yusma n me were ‘quarelling’..hana jadi macam orang tengah la ko...
