Bila berharap.

As-salam =)


Today got class. Lecturer ada mention pasal "susah bila dah berharap". Contoh situasi yang beliau bagi adalah lebih kepada situasi rumah tangga, atau situasi pasangan kekasih yang baru berangan nak bila mahligai. Kata beliau, kaum Hawa lebih banyak dan suka berimaginasi yang macam-macam, berbanding kaum Adam. Betul atau tidak? Aku pilih betul, sebab antara aku dan dia, memang akulah gerangannya yang suka fikirkan perkara yang indah-indah lepas kahwin nanti. Contohnya, nak berhenti kerja dan jadi suri rumah sepenuh masa, makan duit gaji sorang-sorang, hubby tolong bayar duit kereta, dll. Kalau terbayang perkara-perkara ni, memang aku akan senyum selebarnya. Rasa disayangi sangat, kan? Tapi, memang amat bahaya kalau dalam stage percintaan sekarang aku dah mula bayang benda-benda ni 'cause I tend to feel the frustration kalau ia tak berlaku seperti yang dirancang dan dibayangkan.

Kan?

Ada juga situasi "susah bila berharap" ni yang, bila kita buat sesuatu kebaikan, kita berharap yang individu tersebut juga akan balas seperti mana kita pernah berbuat baik padanya. Aku mengaku, aku individu yang macam ni. Aku cepat rasa kecewa bila semuanya tidak seperti yang diharapkan. Hampa sangat! Boleh ganggu mood for the whole day. Contoh yang nyata, kita tolong teman seseorang ke mana-mana, tapi bila masa kita perlukan dia untuk temankan kita pula, he/she couldn't make it. Kalau alasannya kukuh kita bolehlah buat ubat hati, tapi kalau alasannya, "malaslah!', "eh, kau pergilah sendiri", "hmm.. tak mau pergi kot?", tak tahulah nak cakap macam mana. Tapi, alhamdulillah, kawan-kawan kat sekeliling aku semuanya bukan jenis yang 'jual ikan' seperti yang dinyatakan. Bertuahnya badan, kan? Weee.

Contoh yang tak nyata pula, seperti kita berharap agar orang tak sakitkan hati kita, mengeji kekurangan kita dan memalukan kita di khalayak ramai, seperti mana yang kita selalu bertindak untuk tak sakitkan hati dia, tak mengeji kekurangan diri dia dan tak memalukan diri dia di khalayak ramai. Kita tak pernah mention anything pasal kekurangan dia. Tak terlintas. Tapi, bila semua tu berlaku, bila kita sendiri dah set tahap-tahap mana kita letak dia sebagai individu, bila dah berharap, rasa kecewa mula terbit. Susah nak padamkan. Tapi, cuma sekadar contoh. Alhamdulillah, tiada insan-insan yang sebegitu di sekeliling aku. Rasa hidup macam dalam syurga.. syurga.. syurga.. (impak gema). Haha. Haruslah fikir seperti hidup di syurga, kan? Baru hidup ceria-ceria selalu. Senyum sampai ke telinga sebab Allah S.W.T izinkan aku hidup di kalangan orang-orang yang baik hatinya, lurus perbuatannya. Hasad dengki? Jauh sekali. Nauzubillah. Ada ke yang nak berhasad dengki dengan aku? Aku ngak punya apa-apa yang boleh dibanggakan. LOL.

HAHA. Overstress ye? Tarik rambut nanti botak pulak.

Tulisan malam-malam macam ni penuh dengan emosi. Emosi redha dan pasrah. Tak ada apa yang boleh dibuat selain redha. Pahit mana sekali pun, alahai aku telan sahaja la. Campur budu cap Peladang sikit, tak adalah rasa pahitnya tu, kan? Senang macam tu. Tak perlu nak banyak cakap. Tak perlu nak heboh. Mengadu pada Allah S.W.T. Itu yang terbaik. Kalau orang lain nak riak atas kelebihan yang mereka ada, biarkan. Biarkan saja. Tengok dan telan saja. Mungkin kelebihan tu hanya sementara, siapa tahu? Aku sedang diuji, kau pun diuji juga. Jangan tak tahu. Ya Allah, tabahkan aku. Dah nak hampir sampai sempadan kesabaran dah ni. Jangan kerana tak sabar, habis segala aib aku perihalkan. Aku tak mau dicop sebagai mulut lantang, sibuk jaja gosip aib orang, aib sendiri tak terjaga. Minta simpanglah. 


Banyak yang boleh dihurai. Cuma malas. Baik peruntukan masa dengan sesuatu yang lebih manfaat. Banyak lagi yang perlu dikisahkan dari melayan asmaradana yang tak sudah-sudah. Paling kurang, buat sesuatu yang boleh buatkan aku tertawa dan gembira. 


Tidur dengan senang hati. Tidur dengan Robeerto sambil tengok Everybody Loves Raymond, repeat sampai pagi. Gembira. Semoga bila bangun esok pagi, dah boleh senyum puas-puas, senyum lebar, nampak ceria dan tak kusam-musam lagi. 

Weee ^ ^

Have fun today.

As-salam

Sounds klise, right? Something a sporting mom usually says, "Have fun today, kids!" when her kids off to the mall or seeing friends. Haha. Most of it, not happening in Malaysia. But well anyways, the tittle is regarding to something that has been in my mind for quite something. You see, I was blog walking this morning that I put my head into a friend's blog, something about confession about how she felt lately, and a part of it is about 'MENGUMPAT'! Yes, talk bad about other people.


I admit, most of time now my friends and I usually just sit, eat and talk from a topic to another, wasting time like konon a sisterhood talk. It's okay by me, because I don't usually pay too much attention towards it and tend to forget the minute I walk away from the room, and so not my habit to retell stories to others. But, when it comes to private or privacy stuffs like so, I became annoyed that I think 'the involve person' feeling too good about itself. Like I mention in my previous entry, she talks bad, she talks back! When you talk bad about a person, the person somehow will talk bad back to you to others. And, even worse. It's as simple as that.


I believe Allah S.W.T has bigger plan for us. Maybe, he wants a person to be extremely happy about how they are today because they tend to be 'not so happy' in future. Like, when we were talking bad about a person appearance, about how fat or ugly she is and how you want people to praise your beauty, maybe Allah S.W.T had decided that the fat ugly women is going to turn out to be a married women and a mother to extremely beauty with brain child. Who knows?

What ever we are doing is not going to result now. So, be careful of every words we are saying. Do not let the words eat us, okay? This is nothing personal, but I am hoping that we all can change the way we see other people. See it positive! People judge us from what we are doing and the words coming out straight from the  mouth. Talking bad about others and feeling too good about oneself is making others see more of us - about the way we think and how conservative we are.

Maybe, whatever we were saying are all true, but it's not our job to judge people. Don't take God's job.

Okay, semuanya nak ikut orang!

As-salam =)

Bila sudah namanya perempuan, memang sungguh irrational bila bab kecantikan, setuju? Kebanyakannya lah kan..terutamanya bila pilih baju, kasut, tudung, accessories atau barang make-up! Aku? Of course lah aku termasuk dalam senarai ni. LOL. So, since today aku sangat lapang, aku mula blog-walking. Objektif utama ialah untuk 'merisik-risik' pasal beauty segments. Satu perkara yang aku masih tak mampu untuk get it right ialah berkenaan dengan concealer & foundation. Sigh! Muka jenis kering ni kalau silap sapu boleh nampak kesan menggelupas tu. Itulah masalah terbesar aku sekarang. But, by foundation, I don't mean it to be something thick macam untuk ke majlis-majlis besar. Cuma sesuatu yang ringkas dan mudah dipakai sehari-hari.

Kalau dulu, aku memang pengguna setia produk Mustika Ratu. Dari penjagaan rambut, hinggalah ke alat solek. But, propa je lebih 'cause aku cuma beli set shampoo dan alas bedak :p

Kuning langsat untuk kulit normal/kering

Overall, produk ni memang produk yang paling sesuai dengan kulit aku ^ ^ Tak nampak heavy macam off-occasion! Dan yang paling penting, kulit tak nampak menggelupas dan tahan lama. Habis sahaja satu botol terus beli baru. Harga jual dekat Jusco Perda ialah RM5.90 sahaja, okay? ..dengan menggunakan Kad Jusco, of course! Hehe. But, in some kiosk, you may find the price is nearly RM10.00. Cekik darah, kan? Dah setahun rasanya tak guna alas bedak ni, tapi bukan sebab tak elok ke apa. Cuma sangat malas dah nak keluar bersiap lebih-lebih. Cukup sekadar krim dan bedak kompak. Krim tu pun already have sun-block. So, sayonara sun-block. Bedak kompak pun nipis-nipis sahaja - tujuan untuk ratakan krim dan bagi tahan lama.

Tapi, rasanya macam nak cuba jenama lain jugak! Teruja tengok BB CREAM yang berlambak di pasaran. Dah survey beberapa jenama. Tukang promot barangan ni kebanyakannya comel-comel belaka, so rasanya aku memang dah termakan dengan umpan tu. Even though aku sedia maklum tentang perbezaan kulit, tapi aku gigih jugak budget untuk beli benda-benda tu.

COLOR NATURATOR

Semuanya dalam pemerhatian aku sekarang ni. For tonight, aku jadi sangat tertarik dengan COLOR NATURATOR, ok? Ada satu blog ni telah memuatkan entri tentang macam mana nak apply this thing. Untuk tutorial tu, beliau telah menggunakan item CODE 171. Penggunaannya lebih untuk menutup 'mata panda' kita semua, terutamanya anak gadis yang masih belajar - tidur tak cukup tu adalah mesti!. Hasilnya, sangat mengagumkan! Seriously, aku terpaku!

SEBELUM

SELEPAS

TAPI, lepas make-up, memang so cute and looks so damn natural! For now, really tak putuskan lagi nak carry on dengan jenama apa. But, despite of all three brands, I may say this 'Baviphat' leads the way. Sekarang kan 'demam Korea', so everything much looks at least almost the same. Paling cikai pun kena ada barang-barang (terutamanya alat solek!) ala-ala Korea. Definately not me lar! Aku dah tak beli barang ikut trend semasa semata-mata. Banyak yang perlu ditimbang tolak sebab beli barang untuk pakai lama.

(Untuk maklumat lanjut mengenai produk COLOR NATURATOR, klik sini)

So, until it is decided, you go browse yourself about which brand suits you best! Ini sebagai cadangan sahaja ^ ^ dan sebagai penghilang bosan di Malam Tahun Naga. 

LOL.

Not yet married.

As-salam =)
I am not yet married. But sort of engaged. In Islam, the moment the man express his thought to have her as his wife, the woman is considered to be engaged, even with no witness and writing. I have a story to share with you guys. We went to dinner just now. I really do not know how to dress tonight. I pull one of my unfolded long sleeve shirt out of my basket. I thought this baby blue would be nice, just the shirt is short. So, I thought of wearing it along with my skirt-attached pants to cover up my bottom. Okay, decided then. At the restaurant, hubby asks about what am I wearing? I knew it would come out. So, I explain myself of why I have the shirt worn with the pants to cover up my bottom and so on. Then he said, "Sayang, ini bukan seluar. Tapi legging." To cut short the conversation, I translated of the whole thing he said to the man version of talking (just so you know, man always talking indirectly :p) 

Legging is not pants and it looks sexy on me (Okay, since I gained weight. The tight are really showing. The curve is much obvious now!). But what he really means was, I am not suppose to wear that there, at least not to be matched with a short shirt. 

I get his point. InsyaAllah =) I am praying for that, to be more alert or aware about the way I dress and how I handle myself. I am assisting myself now to be a good wife later. Despite of most of thing I did, I try to look it on how a wife should do, should really behave herself.

InsyaAllah.

Like seriously, no guarantee.

As-salam

I was browsing through my albums of snapshot just now. Most things about me had changed. And some of it just vanished that I started to change into this much mature and grown up a.k.a adult. It’s not that I missed my old self, just I truly grateful to God to have lend me this opportunity to become His better servant :’(

I am grateful to have met him. He changed most things about me, lending his hands for my rise and my fall. I begin to remember about time when my sister and I had this conversation about how mother is truly grateful about me behaved and starting or deciding to have the hijab on. I did know that, just I don’t have a clue about how happy she became and truly grateful to Allah S.W.T.
I begin to wonder, what if things are not like this. Will I stop being a spoil brat at the age of 22? When would I be at the weekend? No idea.
I pray for things to turn well.

I still have the anger inside of me but it’s in control position that I starting to think clearly, most of time minus the ‘full moon’. Just, I can’t help it when it comes to ‘the third person’. I could lose control that I surely will slap or punch her and talk stupid out load and even could spits on her. Don’t try me because there’s no guarantee that I can feel my arms or control my body, like seriously.

But, whatever it is, I pray for it to not happen so that my bad habit will remains a secret until I graduated.

2006
2008 - Raya AidilFitri Jab. PJK IPGKTB

Willingly to wear hijab - 2008
2009 - Not even stylish
2010 - Family dinner

2011 - Present: Full time hijabers. InsyaAllah.

Pray for me.

Thanks.

Hardly earn RM40.00

As-salam =)


Gosh, finally I had overcome 'the bad day'! I thought like I was making a 'deal contract' - deal of a moment in a life time with Rumpelstiltskin, a character in Shrek Forever After. 
Deal of 'Waitress for RM40.00 pay' by Rumplestiltskin

You see, I thought of working this semester break and I did. I applied for a job as a waitress here at Laguna Club House. So, yesterday (10/11/2011), I went to work from 4.00 - 12.00 a.m, being paid RM5.00/hour. Add up is RM40.00 for one long tiring eight hours of my life. Sigh!

Imagine me as this waitress, okay?

As usual, I dressed in a white top and black bottom, and of course with the hijab on. But my white is not a 'kemeja', but a blaus, match with my black jeans. Sorry, I am not going to wear a slack. In fact, don't have one. But, it's funny about how I dress as a waitress since I am totally not looking like one, with 'selendang' as my hijab. I have this one female co-workers named, Nurul. She wore an instant hijab, tucked in her shirt, while I prefer let my hijab go free, as if I was go out shopping. LOL!

I hate being ordered, like seriously! So, there he is, a full time worker named as N ordered me around doing. "Hey you, collect plates!", "Hey you there, arrange the glasses!". Hello! You are not even a head-waiter! And if so, could you at least say a magic word, 'please!'. As a matter of fact, he's even younger than me! Gggrrrr! Hate him!

It was a weeding ceremony with only about 700 guests, yet I was almost break my legs and swell the arms. Seriously, feel like I've been doing a double session of P.T, as in physical training. Well, P.T is how an army usually say it. :p But much worst!

Oh, working is so hard. I must say, I really admired and salute those who work hard earning own pocket money. Me? My intention applied for the job was to pay for my broadband fees. I owed the company about RM100-RM150, I don't know! Babah, he said he could give me the money IF I agreed to stop working. Oh, Babah, just so you know, I quit already! Huh! Seriously, I only woke up at 12.00 p.m the next day.

I only thought for the best. I agreed to work because I didn't want to burden the family about my broadband things. You see, I thought I already paid it! I used to pay RM300.00 in total for my broadband for about a year for six months in row. But since Babah had no problem paying for my broadband, oh, I couldn't say no! Hehe.

So, yippy yeah for me! Bye-bye hard works, and welcome leisure!

p/s: By the way, I still owe mother some home chores. So, the payment for broadband is not free after all ;p

Work a denial.

As-salam =)

I am currently at Sg. Besi now spending some of my semester break here with the family. Actually it was about time to update a blog since it got FREE WI-FI here! Wooohooo... but with limited excess of course! Sigh! What to be happy about, then? Well, actually I got some pretty good story to tell, most of it, with some pictures to go along with that! But, since this is not actually my laptop, I guess I just write about something without picture then. Just text.

Okay. I am actually in a denial. About the figure part? Yes, and I mean, my figure! Guess what? It has only been a week from my eight weeks semester break, yet I had gained a size! A SIZE, OKAY? And, I can really feel the arms are dancing so fiercely as I swing them slow. SWING THEM SLOW, okay?? Sigh! Oh, I am so in a denial!

By temporary live here, meaning more space for weight gain, since I got nothing else to do but eat, sleep, eat some more, and lay around play dead. What a life! Oh, and change of plan, we might heading to Johor Bahru in few days to fetch Cik Sarah, and then head back to Sg. Petani, to where I actually live. OR, we could stay at Johor for a little while and head back later. Seriously, I don't mind to rapidly travel. It is the weight I concern most! 

How on earth will I slim down, heh? Gimme some tips, will you? I had this crazy idea  to start a diet on kimchi. Yes, the Korean traditional dish! And I actually made mine few months back. It tastes like raw blended ginger+red onion+garlic, but spicier, since it mixed with curry powder. I had tried adjust my 'tekak' to swallow and luckily, I swallowed. =) Not bad, really!

Second thing on my mind is to start work out all over again. My tummy is not as tough as they used to be. You see, I had these three slices on the tummy and I am not proud of it! The tights are really bumped into one another, and so not cool. I look shorter, too! Ah, Another sigh!

So, did the denial actually work? Haha. I think it is, since I imagine myself with the three slices of tummy and bumped tights are the most sexiest thing on me. Haha. (Errrkk?) So, don't worry much! I still slim, though! Eat, eat and keep eating. Chubby girl is the trend nowadays! =)

Ye la tuh!

How to detect a girl child?

As-salam =)

'A girl child' - is not a girl with a child, or and out marriage girl, or a pregnant girl. It is a girl who got spoiled, pampered and high-fed. Okay, easier to say, 'manja' lar... Haha. Faham dah kan? Okay. I was browsing on the -e- for more news about girl issues, then I found this blog writing about 'a girl child'. And since I am on my revision break, then I'll re-write the story again. =)

Exciting entry isn't it? So readers, read it carefully. Are you one of the girl child?

Here are the criteria:

Girl who doesn't talk or fight much
  • Girls, known as one soft creature whom are suppose to be gentle and look gentle at all points of view. This type of girl often to not fight back, even with girls. She usually be or very obedient to orders even if she disagree at some points. And, even if she fights back, she will always remember to use soft tone to the other opponents. 
Girl with blanket/shawl

  • By shawl, I mean, a girl whom covered herself with shawl, not girl wears shawl. Girl wears shawl sometimes not a kind of a girl child. It is more like, trendy, daring and sometimes inpatient type of girls. But, it depends on how she rocks the look and the behaviors too, okay? The blanket or shawl often to be seen as a warm 'get away' from a trouble and uncomfortable for these girls. They just loved the way the material comforts them, as if they were being hugged by someone. That 'someone', you name it. It can be either from a friend, a special friend, family members, etc. But, the best way to spot a girl child is, when she bought it herself. Meaning, she really demands somebody to always be with her.
Girl with teddy bear or soft toy
  • I do agree that, teddy bear or/and soft toy is a girl best friend. As for myself, I do have some teddy bears on my bed. =) It were from the special someone. He said, I could hug it whenever I miss him or having a hard time with my life. You see! Even a man has his thumbs up on this! Teddy bear and soft toy represent softness, loyal, well pampered and warm qualities. So, indirectly, girls will have this qualities too. 
Girl hugging something while sleeping 
  • Have you ever notice how your female friend or female family members sleep? Well, a girl child just love to hug something whenever she asleep. It is a natural or spontaneous action to do whenever they are sleepy and going to sleep. Or, in a case of falling to sleep, like on a bus or in a car, where they don't have their 'sleeping buddy', note how she holds her together. It is a sign of a girl child. Gathered hands are a good alternative! Or, she could somehow accidentally hugs somebody (often to be somebody beside her) while she was asleep. =) Pretty easy to spot, right?
Girl who loves lotion and perfume

  • It doesn't always have to be lotion plus perfume. Just some pretty and sweet-sensed products. Whether if it's a baby oil, it can be counts. The warmness and the sweet smell of the products can ease up the tenses inside her. You can see that this type of girl always be cool and calm, even on a toughest obstacles. The sense helps to calm! Really! It is actually related to th first criteria, 'Girl who doesn't talk or fight much'.

And, fin! =)

The criteria are not always to be exact, but the numbers of criteria that suit you help to know how spoiled you are. And trust me, boys and men will always know what kind of girl are you.

Write down this useful remainder!

- "They always prefer a girl child" -

Apa kata...

Situasi 1:

“Amboi, sexy giler anak si anu tu! Tak padan dengan orang ‘serambi Mekah’. Tengok tu, boleh pula pi peluk-peluk tengah orang ramai?”

Okay. Situasi di atas satu situasi yang aku dah semakin lali sejak dua menjak ni. Dah naik berdesing telinga ni, hah! Kalau nanah boleh berkata-kata, nanah akan bagi respond macam ni, “Hai, tak ada ayat lain ke? Aku sampai boleh hafal lar.” Apa kata... si polan-si polan di luar sana tukar pandangan tentang situasi tersebut? Contoh yang terbaik ialah, tukar pandangan anda tu kepada yang ini.

“Ya Allah. Kalau budak-budak asalan ‘serambi Mekah’ pun dah berani buat perkara macam ni, maknanya masalah sosial di kalangan remaja ni dah makin parak ni! Kena buat sesuatu cepat ni sebelum masalah lagi bertambah besar!”

Haa...macam ni kan okay? Nampak la jugak daya usaha tu sikit! Walaupun hanya baru terdetik di hati, dah dapat pahala tau? Tu baru terdetik. Belum mula langkah dan guna otak tu untuk fikir tentang bagaimana untuk ubati penyakit sosial.

Ini tidak! Mulut tu macam-macam nak komen, tapi tindakan apa pun tarak! Cuma tahu salahkan si polan tu, si polan ni... Jangan kerana nila setitik rosak susu sebelanga! Aku marah. Jujur, memang aku marah! Bukan nak back-up sangat pun ‘serambi Mekah’, cuma pemikiran kita sebagai seorang yang berdarah Melayu dan beragama Islam, it should not be this way, at all! Sorry, I am not talking politics here! Not an issue.

Situasi 2:

A: Ramainya orang kat sini, Senah.
B: Hmm... puak-puak depa jugak la tu yang mai makan, Kiah.

Okay. Pertama sekali yang aku kurang faham ialah, what does it means by ‘puak-puak’? Parti politik kah? Negeri asal kah? Cara berpakaian kah? Or, jumlah harta benda terkumpul? Situasi 2 ni pun merupakan satu situasi lazim yang hampir setiap hari aku dengar dan lihat dan tumpang rasa sakit hati. Why should I sakit hati? Ada perkaitannya dengan aku kah? Tak ada kaitan apa-apa pun! Bukan aku ada share  kat situ. Cuma, jawapan si Senah ni macam ada yang tak kena. Macam tak menjawab soalan pun ada! Apa kata... si Senah tu jawab macam ni kat Si Kiah tu.

“Uiiihh...memang ramai. Sampai malam pun duk lagu ni ja lah Kiah oi! Alhamdulillah, perniagaan depa ni makin hari makin maju.”

Mudah kan? Selain melatih lidah mengucapkan kalimah-kalimah Allah S.W.T, kita juga secara tidak langsung membantu si tuan punya tempat mengembangkan perniagaannya. Mudah-mudahan Allah buka pintu hatinya untuk terus berzakat, bersedekah bantu saudara-saudara yang lain. Ayat yang sungguh mudah! Dapat pahala free aje.

Tapi kan, seriously lar... aku masih tak faham dengan apa yang dimaksudkan dengan ‘puak-puak’ tu. Apa bezanya aku dan dia? Secara amnya, kami juga Islam dan berbangsa Melayu. Sama sahaja! So? Apa yang perlu diperbesar-besarkan kat sini? Hanya sebab mereka tu bertudung litup labuh menutup dada, berjubah dan berpurdah? Itu ke yang dikatakan ‘puak’? Kau dengan puak kau, aku dengan puak aku? Mazhab mana la pulak ni?

Memalukan!

Topik ni memang panas. Entah-entah boleh berderet-deret komen dari anonymous kat bawah ni hah! Ya, memang isu yang aku tulis ni satu isu yang panas... dan aku sendiri tengah panas sekarang ni! Jujur, aku memang jahil bab agama. Mengaji pun masih merangkak. Tapi, please la... hormat sesama kita. Bagi pendapat dan penyataan yang boleh membina dan membantu. Bukannya ulasan panjang lebar yang tak bawa ke mana-mana. Masuk telinga kanan, keluar pun dengan telinga kanan jugak. Meaning, it always been the same old things and still, nobody do something to fix it, even it has been years.

Please, do something about it.

This is something about how and what I felt throughout these years. I am tired of living like it. I am too afraid that somehow I might lose control over it. But still, somebody has to stand tall and talk this through, right?

Pray for me. For the strength.

6 additional things inside my handbag

As-salam =)

I currently spending my last three days of freedom at Kuala Lumpur, to be exact, Sg. Besi. Okay, it was not my first time being here, but was my first since the last few years. Other than handphones and sometimes camera, I always carry some beauty products inside my handbag whenever I am going out in public. It is normal for a girl to have it carried with them. I prefer:
  1. Compact and loose powder
  2. A small bag of lip treatment - lip gloss and lip balm 
  3. A breath spray (I put it inside the small bag)
  4. Note book and a pen
  5. Perfume
But, if I live in KL, I would add 6 other things inside it - other than my beauty products, which are:
  1. A bottle of mineral water
  2. Tissues / oil bolting strips 
  3. Touch N Go card
  4. Travel 'telekung'
  5. Emergency top-up card/money
  6. Novel 
Okay. I've been on the LRT last two days as I reached here, taking one to Sg. Besi from Pudu. It was one uncomfortable experience to have to be squished inside it, along with two trolley bags, two backpacks and some handbags. I was sweating, man! Really hard! So, this is when I realize that KL people really must have item number 1 and 2! Seriously, okay? Item number 1, it is important to have yourself hydrated from time to time, for good and healthier skin.

Item number 4, travel 'telekung'. As a muslim, no matter how sexy you are, prayer is what a Muslim must do, 'wajib'! It is convenient to always carry item number 4, so you can perform your solah without worrying about finding yourself a clean 'telekung'.

For item number 3, since your are going to take the LRT, Touch N Go's card is what you must always have and to take along. I suggest, hang it on the neck OR keep it in a place where you can easily reach it for the your convenient. Really! If you are KL people and still don't have one, please, go get one! And, remember to always check the balance and refill your card from time to time. 

Same goes to item number 5 here. Always think of the unexpected, like emergency where you're missing the cab or exit to a different area as you walk out of the LRT, being robbed, or etc. Keep handphone near to you. Oh, and by handphone, I mean, an active handphone, filled with credits. And always have an extra top-up card attached or kept inside the purse. Keep the money separately! Have RM10 and RM50 or other amount anywhere on you - not only inside the bag. Since I am not a KL people, sometimes I go out with no cash on me, really! It was a bad habit, though! But, if you live in KL, please spare some money on you - even on a primary school child. It is best if the parents could supply the kids with handphone too. Actually I am not quite agree for the kids to have phone, but since I am talking safety here, I see a handphone as one of the must have item.

Okay, the last item, item number 6. Novel is kind of a friend whenever you stuck inside a busy and long journey on a LRT. Reading is one good habit to begin with.

Alert, it is not listed as one priority. Just a simple list of must have items. You can always add or remove some items I listed above. This is what I thought I would bring on my busy days as busy as a day in KL. So, modified it to fits you best!

Good luck =)

Payung bukan sahabat baik perempuan!

As-salam =)

Sudah hampir 3 tahun aku bertapa di IPGKTB sebagai guru pelatih aliran PJ. Berbagai karenah yang aku dah nampak, baik di IPG sendiri mahu pun di sekolah. Ayat lazim yang tak akan terlepas dari lubang telinga aku ialah:

"Blajaq pa PJ tinggi-tinggi? Nanti pi skolah duk bawah payung jugak. Budak main netball, cikgu duk pakai kebaya sendat terjerit-jerit dari bawah payung!"

Hmm.. setiap kali dengar orang cakap macam tu, setiap kali tu la telinga aku panas, berdesing pun ada! Hello! Segelintir cikgu aje yang akan buat macam tu, okay? Tak perlu lah nak samakan setiap orang. Aku terkejar-kejar, jatuh bangun, tidur lewat... pendek kata berusaha gigih nak dapatkan Ijazah PJK tu. Bukan senang-senang, tahu?

Sigh! Sigh! Sigh! 

Di entri yang lepas bertajuk Coaching or Courting?, aku ada tulis mengenai hari aku sebagai seorang pengadil Bola Jaring di satu sekolah di Sg. Petani, Kedah. Aku dan mama jadi pengadil untuk sekurang-kurangnya enam perlawanan (kot? haha!) berbentuk liga. Muka aku yang dah sedia burn, bertambah burn lagi! Muka pun jadi pedih-pedih dek cuaca yang terlalu terik. Okay, itu satu bukti yang agak kukuh untuk buktikan payung bukan sahabat baik perempuan! Sebenarnya, tak dosa pun nak berpayung. Tapi kena sesuai la dengan tempatnya, ye tak? Berpayung tengah padang nampak macam gedisss la pula! 

Okay, beralih ke bukti kedua! 

Perlawanan Bola Jaring dan Bola Sepak berlangsung serentak. Obviously, Bola Sepak sudah tentu cikgu lelaki yang jaga kan? But, believe me or not, cikgu lelaki tu yang berpayung! 

HAHAHAHA! HAHA!

Tak tipu punya! And of course la aku tak dapat sertakan gambar kat sini. Aku cuma pandang dari jauh. Alahai, sedap betul cikgu tu berteduh bawah payung! Aku dan mama kat sini dah macam udang celup garam dah. Tunggu masa aje nak dibakar! Cikgu lelaki tu senang-senang je lepas tanggungjawab dia kat budak-budak. Suruh budak-budak yang jadi pengadil, penjaga masa. Dia pula mengalahkan cikgu perempuan. Terjerit-jerit dari luar padang, pegang payung! Apa cer?

Sumpah lawak!

Masalahnya bukan cikgu spesis lembut pun. Confirm tulen sebab dah kahwin dan ada anak dah pun! Jadi, makanya dengan ini, sudah terbukti lah bahawa payung bukan sahabat baik perempuan! Cukup-cukuplah aku dengar ayat lazim tu. Dah naik bohsa sangat dah! Tolonglah cari modal lain. Dah basi!

PART1: Aku pun hodoh juga!

As-salam =)

Dah lama sangat rasanya aku tak post dalam Bahasa Malaysia, kan? Tiba-tiba rasa rindu! Post dalam BM ni lebih senang nak express feeling. Oh, sudah! Dah jadi ‘bahasa rojak’ daa... Haha inilah akibatnya kalau lidah terlatih dengan satu perkara saja. Jadi sikit kekok! Tulis dalam BM pun ayat susah nak keluar ‘bahasa pasar’. Asyik-asyik ‘bahasa baku’. Hmm..

24.10.2011 – 12.45 tengahari :
Aku masih di sekolah, berehat-rehat di Bilik Sakit yang mama dan aku hias. Pedih rasanya muka ni dek bahang sang matahari. Sg. Petani dah makin panas sekarang. Pukul 10.00 pagi pun teriknya hingga menangkap ke kepala. Pening! Asyik-asyik expose to sunlight! Kalau hari-hari macam ni, bila baru boleh aku cerah balik?

Mama baru aje kol aku, minta aku ke naik ke kelas 3 Maju. Sesi bergambar la! What else? Mama minta aku tangkap gambar ruang-ruang kelasnya. Mama sangat eager, seolah-olah macam satu arahan pula! Haha. ‘kau tak buat, kau mati!’. Takutnya! So, aku pun dengan malasnya melangkah ke blok sebelah dan naik ke tingkat satu. Tangkap gambar sikit (ambil syarat jek!) then turun balik ke Bilik Sakit.

Mata aku tertancap ke satu sudut. 

PONDOK REHAT

Aku teringat lagi satu kejadian yang berlaku sembilan tahun lepas di pondok rehat tu. Aku, Jannah, Bariah dan Nadhirah memang empat sekawan. Anak pegawai, so seolah-olah kami ni already build up a team. Lebih serasi. Plus, hidup pun  berjiran. Sembilan tahun lepas, aku berumur 12 tahun. Aku sangat hodoh – berbadan besar, mata sepet, berkulit gelap, gigi tak tersusun, bau badan, kurang cerdik, tak aktif, kurang berkemahiran, dll. Dalam selection untuk persembahan Hari Anugerah Cemerlang, nama aku langsung tak tersenarai. Sedih! Sedangkan kawan-kawan aku yang lain semuanya dipanggil untuk persembahan tersebut. Tinggallah aku sorang-sorang terkontang-kanting.

Aku kecil hati! Aku sangat terasa!

Bukan salah kawan-kawan, tapi salah cikgu yang menilai! Bila dah dewasa dan bakal menjadi seorang guru, aku lebih faham kenapa cikgu tak pilih aku. Cuma, kata-kata yang cikgu tersebut lontarkan pada aku ketika tu membuatkan aku lebih mengasingkan diri. Aku tak yakin! Aku malu dengan diri sendiri! Di pondok itulah aku menangis semahu-mahunya. Aku tak peduli budak-budak lain yang lalu-lalang. Persetankan!

Bila di IPG, satu kejadian yang hampir serupa berlaku pada aku. Aku terus teringat kejadian masa di sekolah dulu. Kejadian ni lah! Aku seolah-olah hilang keyakinan diri. Aku kembali rasa hodoh! ... and major looser! Bukan mudah untuk aku bangkit semula dari kejatuhan. Tak mudah! Masa yang aku ambil sangat panjang dan kadang-kadang aku terbawa-bawa perasaan tu. Aku tak professional!

Di usia yang hampir mencecah 22 tahun, perlahan-lahan aku bina keyakinan aku terhadap diri sendiri. Aku mula sayangkan diri dengan beri lebih peluang untuk aku perbaiki kesalahan. Aku belajar untuk kurangkan sikap ‘perfectionist’. ‘Perfectionist’ sebenarnya hanyalah alasan yang aku reka bagi menutup kelemahan aku mengawal emosi, terutama apabila masyarakat di sekitar bercerita tentang kekurangan diri aku. Aku selalu ingat yang aku mampu memuaskan hati pelbagai pihak dalam satu masa, tapi tak! Aku salah! Aku bukannya Malaikat. Sedangkan Nabi-nabi terdahulu pun berbuat dosa kepada Allah S.W.T, inikan pula hamba biasa di akhir zaman.

"Excuse me, you have body odor!"

As-salam =)

Body odor is an unpleasant odor that oozes from a person's body. I am positive enough that everybody had experienced body odor. We all have body odor! It is all about how we manage oneself, eliminating the unwanted odor of the body. My experience of the situation is barely about what female friends do to be more hygienic. 

Image Detail

Female, we suffered more of this body odor, especially during the 'full moon' days. Right? Me too! It happens to me like always. Below is a short list about how I manage myself during my 'ladies day' :

Image Detail
  • Bath, like often. Use bubbly soap with refreshing fragrant (I suggest lime or lemon!). Buy yourself a sponge to really get the stubborn odor out of the body (But my idea of buying myself a sponge is to really get this girly feeling. LOL!)
  • Wear clean cloth. OR, if you're in my situation (living at hostel - cutting cost on laundry), once you detect even slightly unpleasant smell coming from the cloth, throw it in the laundry bucket like ASAP! It is a signal of growing bacterias.
  • Use fragrant. I use fragrant like always, even on my weekend at my hostel. By fragrant, I mean NOT APPLYING PERFUME! Just body lotion or deodorant will do! =)

Hear me out girlfriend! It is all about disciplines! 



Bad body odor really means poor disciplines managing the hygiene. It is such a shame that we, girls and women can't even take care of the body properly. If this happens to you, it is a signal that you are not ready with relationship stuffs. Like, trust me!

So, bath always!


Here are some additional tips I found on the internet. So, let's eliminate bad body odor, girls! Start on a self project now!!!! 


Tips

  • If you are experiencing unusual body odor, schedule an appointment with your physician. However, while you are waiting to be seen, there are a few strategies for controlling the unpleasant smells: Pour 1 cup of hydrogeine peroxide in your bath water. Wipe the area where the odor is coming from with white vinegar. Finally, in areas that heavy prespriation occurs, use baby or talc powder.

Be better, be more hygienic!

Home made Skin Bleaches

As-salam =)

Bleach the skin, how does it works? And what make it works? I've seeing this one beauty center advertising about 'bleaching'. They claim to enlighten the body skin through this procedure called 'bleach' technique. With what, I don't really know. Laser, perhaps? After all, I can guarantee you that most customers eager to get fast result. Right? That's why they paid the beautician for.

Fast result but too many side effects are not worth paying for. So, let's get traditional. Use natural remedies that can easily find in our kitchen. For this, you might need:

  1. Orange peels
  2. Raw milk
  3. Almonds
  4. Honey
  5. Few grams of flour
  6. Tumaric
  7. Lemon/lime juice
  8. Milk cream
Read the following instructions:
(This are several methods that readers can do. Your choice!)

  1. Make a citrus paste to lighten your skin. Take the peels of oranges and dry them in the sun until hard. The citric acid in orange (and lemon) is said to have bleaching properties. Grind the fully dried peels into a fine powder. Add raw milk to the powder to make a paste. Apply the paste to your skin one to two times daily, leaving on the skin for 10 to 15 minutes. Wash the paste off with warm water when it has dried completely.
  2. Use almonds to make a paste for bleaching skin. Soak almonds in water overnight and peel them in the morning. Make a paste and add a few drops of honey. Apply the paste onto your skin, scrubbing it off thoroughly when it has dried.
  3. Make a paste for lightening skin with gram flour. Mix two spoons of gram flour, a pinch of turmeric, three drops of lemon juice, and a few drops of milk cream into a smooth paste and apply to the skin. Wash thoroughly when the paste has dried. This paste can be applied to the entire body.


Imagine, such a beautiful girl; long healthy hair, fair complexion, drolling body shape, sexy lips, fine attitude ... BUT with dark armpits sit beside you table showed hers by incident. What would you think? If I were in her shoes, I would pack up my things, wrap the food I ordered and leave. It is so embarrassing for a girl or a woman to have 'not-so-beautiful- armpit. Yes, people can argue about why should a female (when it comes to armpit, people will easily appointed to female rather than male) have a clean and beautiful armpit (no dark shades). 


One point can answer it all.

  1. Most of women will get married some day. Do you want the husband to see the dark shades of your armpit? When one get intimate, armpit is one of the sensual part of the women body. Remember that!
Well, I think I clearly made my point. =) Women with hair pits (I referred here as long armpit - more than 1 cm long) is a type of women whom are poor in hygiene. Think about the body odour. Yucks! 


Here, I attached some of related websites for readers further reading about the topic. It is so cool that you can actually do some experiments to one same idea, 'bleach'.

Read more: 

With Allah will, I do researches about how to choose deodorants. Okay? Sharing about this beauty stuffs are a total fun for me. =) 

Until next time.

A big mission

As-salam =)

I've been talking to a friend about an issue. She suggests for me to have a face-to-face talk. I've been thinking, and had decided to do as suggested. 

Monday, let's the mission begin.

I should really do this sooner, yet I've been pending it for no reason. It's so not right! I have to stand up tall, clearing my name and reputation. 

Hell, I am so pissed off with some people whom sort of set an agenda to make me sit and blame me for everything. Sinned, dude! 

Kindly remember that, this is 'dunia akhir zaman'. Allah S.W.T pay cash for most of sins and blames we made, we accused, we talked bad about others. I am totally not surprise if one day you come down to my knees, beg for my forgiveness. If that happen, then I'll say,

"What is it you did wrong? Aren't you always right?"

Now I know what kind of friend you are. I'll always know! 

Sorry, but I am totally heart-ache by the agenda you've planned.

Tabarruj

As-salam =)

Aku terkedu seketika bila membaca penulisan seorang sahabat berkenaan perkara yang bermotifkan adab, tatatertib, aurat insan yang bernama Perempuan (buka link Perempuan - Allah Seeker untuk pembacaan). Aku sedar bahawa aku bukanlah seorang Mujahidah sejati yang layak dibanggakan atau disegani oleh sekalian Muslimat. Tetapi, setelah aku baca dan hayati penulisan hamba Allah S.W.T ini, aku jadi malu. Malu dengan diri sendiri kerana selama ini aku sangkakan aku telah berjaya mencapai satu standard yang aku sendiri tetapkan, tapi sebenarnya aku masih gagal. 

Antara isu-isu yang diutarakan, aku amat tertarik dengan isu 'tabarruj'. Aku pernah terdetik di hati untuk belajar tidak berhias. Maksud 'berhias' yang aku fokuskan di sini ialah berhias dengan cara bersolek - mencalitkan warna-warna di muka, mencukur kening dan sebagainya. Alhamdulillah, dengan izin Allah S.W.T, aku beraya dengan kening tebal tahun ni. Dengar macam lawak kan? Tapi, itulah hatikatnya! Dan, aku juga secara tidak sedar berjaya kurangkan tabiat 'bersolek-solek', walaupun di Hari Raya Aidilfitri! =) Aku dah mula anggap bahawa bersolek itu sesuatu yang leceh kerana menyukar dan melengahkan kita untuk bersolat, bersujud kepada Allah S.W.T. Maka, pendekatan yang telah aku ambil untuk menggantikan tabiat 'bersolek-bercantik2' ini ialah dengan menjaga kulit muka dengan sebaik-baiknya. Aku berpendapat bahawa kulit muka yang bersih dan licin secara tidak langsung mencerminkan sebahagian dari perwatakan keseluruhan seseorang individu itu. Tapi, dalam hal ini, aku masih lagi gagal kerana habit baruku yang suka 'main-main' muka dengan kuku. Disgusting, but that's the fact of what I am nowadays! Oh, tidak!

Dalam penulisan tersebut, tabarruj juga merujuk kepada perhiasan yang dipakai oleh perempuan, termasuklah pakaian dan perhiasan tubuh badan seperti gelang kaki. Soal pakaian, ya, kadang-kadang aku sedikit melebih-lebih dalam memilih pakaian - baju, seluar, hijjab, kasut. Aku cerewet! Ya, itu perkataan yang paling sesuai untuk aku! Aku masih gagal menjadi perempuan yang diRedhai. =( Aku takut perubahan yang aku lakukan tidak kekal lama dan aku terlalu fikirkan mulut-mulut di sekitar aku. 

Maafkan aku, Ya Allah.

Sedikit demi sedikit, aku belajar untuk mendalami ilmu Agama. Sudah terlalu lama aku sia-siakan peluang yang Allah berikan kepada aku. Salah aku! Aku berdoa untuk dikurniakan Hidayah tanpa didatangi oleh Taufiq-Nya. 

Aku ingin hidup untuk terus berbakti dan berjuang di jalan Allah, bersama-sama Muslimin dan Muslimat yang lain menuju Jannah-Mu. 

Tunjukkan aku.

Are you ready? Six obstacles to overcome!

As-salam =)

I've been reading lately about a real life story of a non-Muslim girl that some how attracted to Muslim hijab. The story begins when a Muslim girl (referred as 'A') went to this non-Muslim girl's (referred as 'B') house for an interview. They start the interview, chat a little bit and have a drink. B served a mineral water to A. While A was drinking the water, B glazed at A's hijab. And B asks.

A - "Don't mind if I ask. Don't you feel hot wearing that, mam?".
B - "What? This hijab? No. Not at all. I start to wear my hijab when I was in primary school".
A - "Oh. Okay. But it was nice, though! I like it. I just love the color and tone. Nice!"
B - "There's no harm for non-Muslim to tr to wear one. Try it! I'm sure you'll look lovely in this". 

Even a non-Muslim attracted to Muslim's hijab. It is such an honor for us, Muslim. I myself, I do not wear hijab, not until I was 19 years old. I used to have so many excuses whenever somebody asked me why. But my all-time favorite answer will be,
"Well, even a girl wears hijab cannot behave themselves!" 
Here is a good guide for anybody whom think they are ready to wear one. Six obstacles to overcome!


Are you Ready? Six Obstacles to Overcome
Thinking about wearing Hijab? Here are some tips to help you overcome obstacles that may get in your way:
  • Yourself –Not sure if you are ready? Remember that Iman (faith in Allah) includes submitting to Allah’s will. Research, understand the reasons and talk to girls who have gone through it. Ask Allah to help you put your beliefs into action. Prophet Muhammad relates that Allah said, “if [My servant] draws near to Me a hand’s span, I draw near to him an arm’s length; if he draws near to Me an arm’s length, I draw near to him a fathom’s length; and if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
  • Your Friends – Worried about how your buddies will take it? Your friends should accept your decision and be proud of your courage. Give them time and be patient. Be conscious of Allah, not the girls or guys.
  • Your Parents – It’s difficult to do things when the people closest to you oppose it. As Muslims, it’s our duty to please our parents, unless their wishes go against the command of Allah. As much as your parents do for you, their love and mercy could never compare to that of your Creator. Ease your parents into your decision and pray that it becomes easy for them to understand.
  • At School –It takes courage to be different. You are likely to hear, “what is that thing on your head?” or “who made you do it?” Questions aren’t bad. Know your reasons and explain why you chose to wear Hijab.
  • At Work – The United Nations states that, “Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion” (Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 18). Most countries in the world abide by this declaration and have their own laws that protect an individual’s freedom of religious practice at work.
  • At the Gym – What about swimming or basketball for sporty sisters? Obeying Allah and wearing Hijab does not limit your physical activity. Organize sisters-only sports events. This encourages true sportswoman-ship. When you play, it’s about the love of the game, not the glory (or the guys watching!).

Myself wearing a long hijab (Thanks roomate for letting me borrow yours!)


I am not yet to wear an extended hijab. Mine are just moderate. But, insyaAllah. =) I prefer if my 'Hijrah' takes time and I can stick to it, rather than fast-mode 'Hijrah'.    




p/s: Have the hair, neck and chest covered are a must. We can always improved oneself. Let's us start wear one and extant the length of the hijab day by day. =)
