hati (hati)

Salam,

Kentalnya hati,
Dapat menampung selautan perasaan,
Sedalam bumi luka,
Setinggi langit rindu,
Seluas daratan sayang,
Tapi tewas pada secebis cinta.

Kentalnya hati,
Mampu simpan seribu kenangan,
Mampu soal seribu pertanyaan,
Mampu hadapi seribu tohmahan.

Kentalnya hati,
Robek toreh dan campak,
Mampu terbentuk semula,
Mampu beri secebis ruang dan peluang.

p/s: maka, jagalah ia moga mampu terbentuk dengan baik dan cantik.

Role swap

Salam

Sometimes
No matter how close you are
You still couldnt understand
How and why people say one thing and meant the other.
Say would not ever when they are still doing it.
Say to put a stop when they are not.

Oh. We should exchange shoes sometimes.


p/s: :)

good luck

Salam.

 p/s: so do these mean that if things go the other way around, she loves him?

truth could be ...

Salam.

270513 Monday
Human beings are undoubtedly curious beings.
we stalk, we talk, we investigate and we ask.
but sometimes we forgot the fact that,
not all answers are soothing to the ears and calming to the hearts.
knowing the hurtful truth and cries about it is not a good choice neither living in doubt.
it is just a matter of choosing the less devastating option. 
coz the truth is, answer could be too heartbreaking, too pernicious to be digested.
but as an adult, we try to keep an open mind, be calm and not being too dramatic.
seeking comfort through HIS love is the only way.

p/s: May ALLAH showers us all with HIS unlimited love. Show us the right way and assist us in making wise decisions. Amiin.

form 5

Gonna write more about.....

 new schoolmates. ;p

Just wanna share some pics on Nad's wedding. hehe.
it wasnt only a reunion between two souls (aww..)..
but also a reunion between me and my sisters :)
it was the first time i met Z after we graduated? and also Mija!!
oh finally i could kiss Mija for real! :)

and of course, i met Ateng and the queen of the day, pretty bride, Nad.
and the surprise guess (ewah..haha), miss Bed. :D

that was also not just a wedding, reunion, but also my first ever 'overstates' drive (apart from KL lah).
ok, confession. i have never drove out of perak except KL.
so it was kinda a huge achievement lah. :p.

though i was like a pretty zombie after that.
diarrhea and that post driving effects.
KAH! kau memang manja! hihi.

still, i enjoyed every moment of the journey, night at the hotel, Asam Pedas, Wedding (of course! first time kot i attended double weddings! hehe) and all.

spending time with buddies kan..
of course lah i loikeee... hihi.

 

p/s: congratulations Nad and Azmie! moga bahagie ke jannah, in sya ALLAH.. :)

AJA!

Salam.

BSD (2nd June 2013) = 6 weeks more

AJA! hehe.

lotsa assignments.
lotsa must-do revision.
lotsa school stuff (meetings like multimillion business) and co-curricular competitions.
lotsa school activities; camp, mid-yr exam, hari anugerah, hari guru, hari sukan, lawatan KGKT, etc.
all packed in one month (just great!)
and lotsa office politics.

plus, i just realised that there are lotsa clashes too.
with LaDaP, with sekolah ganti, with MA classes (lectures, presentations and exam), with my beloved bro's wedding!


just pray and hope that all will be a smooth sail for me. 


p/s: these few days, ive been really moody and melancholy (that my friends, i couldnt promise wouldnt happen again. lol). i hope that's just a PMS talking. 
Love you all :)

of the 2 weeks vs 6 days

Salam.

Semua orang pun nak kepastian
dan untuk kepastian, perlukan keyakinan.
untuk dapat keyakinan, kenalah usaha.
perlu laku sesuatu, bukan diam kaku.

kalau diam kaku,
timbul juga keyakinan.
keyakinan untuk lebih ragu.

Anggukan itu,
sangat besar.
tapi mungkin tidak berat jika minda tunduk pada hati,
hati tunduk pada iman.

kalau angin, temu angin,
mungkin jadi taufan.
tapi taufan jadi satu petanda.
petanda yang terkesan.
Lenggokan angin sepoi,
kadang tak terasa. berlalu macam tu.
ya, nyaman. tapi mungkin seketika.

dan seketika itu yang menggusarkan.

p/s: gloomy Sunday.

kelabu

Salam.


banyak benda dan perkara
tapi jadi malas nak tulis atau cakap.
baik fokus pada pink.
dari fikirkan kelabu.

akan cuba untuk calitkan keceriaan pada kekelabuan.
simbahan tona pink.
harap bantu menceriakan keadaan,
menaikkan mood,
memadamkan kekusaman.
menyelesaikan kemalapan.

p/s: cant wait for holidays.

Muahhxx :)

Salam.

Last week, i came home to a new bed and mattress in my room.

This week, i came home to a colder room; an air-conditioner in my room. Even mom n dad's room has no air-cond.

Love u much mak and abah :).

p/s: learning to b more independent.

oh.

Salam.

  "Planes" by Yuna

Driving fast but I am nowhere
I'm at home when I am out there
I speak louder when I'm silent
Tryna be somewhere I'm not but I

I'm so confused, I'm just like you...

Ooo Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Wake up in another life
I don't like planes
But I love to fly Love to fly

I got friends but I'm still shy
Sometimes I laugh sometimes I cry
I don't like planes
But I love to fly Love to fly

I feel lost but
I'm surrounded by a million perfect strangers
You're like lightning I'm so grounded
But I'm flying when I'm next to you

I'm so confused, you might be too...

Ooo Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Wake up in another life
I don't like planes
But I love to fly Love to fly

I got friends but I'm still shy
Sometimes I laugh sometimes I cry
I don't like planes
But I love to fly Love to fly

I'm so confused, I'm just like you...

Ooo Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Wake up in another life
I don't like planes
But I love to fly Love to fly

I got friends but I'm still shy
Sometimes I laugh sometimes I cry
I don't like planes
But I love to fly Love to fly

p/s: oh how i wish i could have another week of holidays. :p

Bismillah.

Ya RABB...
berikan lah hamba MU ini ketenangan hati dan jiwa.

Ya RABB...
berikanlah hamba MU ini petunjuk dan keyakinan dalam segala perkara baik.

Ya RABB...
berikanlah hamba MU ini perlindungan dari segala kejahatan, dan berikan lah kekuatan iman pada diri hamba MU ini, Ya ALLAH.

Ameen. Ya robbal'alamiin...

p/s: jaga diri. Jaga hati. Jaga iman yg maha nipis itu.

KEPERCAYAAN.
Tinggi bergunung nilai.
Rebah pasak, runtuhlah semua.
Usah ditarah kepercayaan tertanam kukuh.
Takkan naik semula seutuh dulu.

p/s: When people TRUST you,
that means a LOT.
Trust does not build there and then,
it might take years.
...but ironically it could be destroyed in the blink of eyes.

you DONT know me

Salam

  

  Sometimes asking questions is more difficult than answering them.

 
p/s: Dont act like a shrink. 
Dont deduce people into categories based on a small mole. 
We just dont know everything about them.

1313

Salam.

nothing is easy in this world.
it is just how we perceive things.
(still, im gonna blab no matter how easy or hard things may look like. :p)

*****

I like to count things,
it gives some sort of motivation to me.
like, how im really looking forward to Friday so i could meet my parents.
like, how now, im waiting for Saturday, 2pm so i could go back to ipoh.
like, how im counting weeks before our next school holidays.
and like, how im counting weeeeeksss before the end of the semester.

the thing with counting is,
it involves waiting.
patience.
and..........
sometimes, it feels like forever.
and when the time comes,
it gives that bittersweet kinda feelings.

so yeah, counting and waiting are a complicated pair.
like u and i. eh? hahaha.

*****

i kinda dislike how my Friday now turns to be quite a stressful day.
where i would have very little break in between classes at school,
when i couldnt manage to eat a proper breakfast or lunch.
where i would walk faster than my usual days and looking like a colony of busy ants carrying eggs.
when i would be eating buns and drinking mocha while driving.
...and singing to avoid being sleepy.

*my driving skills are getting better by weeks; i could now eat buns, ice cream, crackers or biscuits and drink using a straw while driving. Still, fail to eat burger or nasi berlauk (lol).


*****

This one lecturer, Prof A.
So far, i like his style.
He's organised. He told us what to expect in the course, etc.
He smiles a lot (nice set of teeth, that calm face and cute mustache..lol)
Most of the time, he presents the lectures (when i am the student, i prefer the traditional way. :p), gives handouts, etc.
BUT.... the workloads are kinda a lot. huhu.
(ok, i feel you my students..hehe :p )

*****

i actually have lotsa things to say/ write.
about life, work life, student life, etc.
but i better stop now. :D

p/s: i got book vouchers. Alhamdulillah. need suggestions for good educational books to buy. :)

mind grammar

Salam.

Life is not a perfect essay.
where every line is filled with bombastic words, perfect grammar and correct use of punctuations.
it might be a retarded essay,
full of weird words, imperfect grammar and incorrect use of punctuations.
sometimes, people just want to know the meaning, 'feel' the story and enjoy reading it,
without having to focus so much on its imperfections.

but no doubt that efforts should be made; 

to write a perfect essay that could be a song to the heart.

p/s: as long as the mistakes are being taken into one's learning process, then making a new mistake is a sign of progress, i believe.

i slept with a stranger.

Salam.


So last night,

my roommate was a random girl whom i never met and never really had a chance to speak with.

what i knew,
she entered the room when i was asleep.
i woke up for a while (realising that someone entered the room),
exchanged a sleepy smile and slept back. lol

and the first word i spoke to her was ....
"awakk...ada kelas pagi tak?"
lol. that was when i woke her up in the morning.

so yeah,
i left my roomate before she woke up.

mannn... would it always be like this for weeks ahead??

  haha. funny and also scary..(from google image)

p/s: since im renting a room with 2 single beds on a weekly basis, i kinda have to anticipate new girl every week to be my roommate. Praying that they are angels. 

midFeb

Salam.

It is February already, indeed, mid Feb.
as always, in life, there would be ups and downs of energy and motivation.
when we feel all pumped up,
it feels like we have all the energy in the world that would move us around.

As my CNY break is ending and my MA class is approaching, i could feel the tense.
this sem, i think i would be and should be more independent as my wing lady, kak A wouldnt be around.
so yeah, expect me to drive alone alllll the time,
and to rent alone at a cheap hotel if the science peeps are not there (we have different schedule).
i hate that. but, i need to be strong(er) to complete this path.
and i should work smarter and pray harder to sustain good result, in sya ALLAH.


***********

and school.
2 notorious classes that kinda make my heart pumping faster.
1 class that could make me scratches my head thinking of ways to at least make 'em pass the subject.
and 2 classes that i have to work hard to ensure they could get an A in English.

students, though they could drive you crazy, in the end, you are the one who are in controlled.

but administrators, colleagues...
different case.lol.
you might or not be in controlled.
they arent either.
it is sometimes, office politics ruled over the whole thing.

**************

i also need to absorb more positive energy.
*inhalingggg*
to be surrounded by people with positiveness.
and to be closer to ALLAH..(HE is the source of calmness and positiveness in life, indeed)
like seriously, i could be so....hyped up, moody, melancholy and poetic at random time.
worse, i could suddenly crave for food, things, places.... almost anything. 
so...yeah, it's time to channel those energy towards something beneficial.
food craving is sometimes good coz it drives me to prepare/ bake/ cook em (unless i buy or bodek other people to cook/buy..lol)
and being all that mushy kinda unleash that lil Shakespeare in myself (erk? lol).
all im saying,  it would be fun to sometimes write something RBTL coz i like subtle though i do appreciate truthfulness  : )

**********

and one thing that i couldnt stop is to nag about my weight gain. lol.
i knowww...people, dont make that face!
i nagged coz ive gained 4kilos. and to lose that, it might take 4years (oh please not). lol.
im not that kinda person who exercises a lot.
i love to jog (when it's not too sunny..:p), i like outdoor activities. but i rarely do that if im alone.
so basically if i dont have my frienergy or brothergy booster, i rarely do that. (alasaannn..kah!).
but...i should start exercising, in whatever forms lah..
my stamina, my energy dah macam drained out dah. coz lelemak dah takluk.lol
hmm...yoga or dancing would be fun? :D
try ok.

p.s: Jealousy is innate. it is just that, dont make it as a big part of ourselves. too much of it, annoys most people and worse, kills humanity in oneself.

Sleepy heart

Salam

Whenever i need to sleep early,
That's when my eyes shut late..
Unfortunately, later than normal.
Whenever i gotta stay up late,
That is when i could easily sleep early.
No sheep counting watsoever.
Maybe i need to learn that apart from feelings,
sleeping cant be forced too (well unless u r on med).
It will come naturally.
You feel it when you feel it.

Some people sleep easily.
Some fell for a lullaby.
Some with the power or touch and caress.
Some effortless; standing, loud noise, bright room..wherever and whenever.
And of course there are some who have difficult time falling asleep.
But it is a matter of time,
till we'll reach our lala land,
sailing our own sweet dreams.

Good night :)

p/s: RBTL

of weekend and monday

Salam.

My weekend was filled with baju pengantin's hunting.
not for me, but for my brother's wedding.
i like it. being a part of their wedding.
and choosing wedding dresses was fun! haha.
Though people nowadays prefer wedding dress and lace, i think songket is also beautiful, with the injection of Malay tradition there. more awesome if we could find a suitable wedding dress that has the combination of songket, lace and has that dress cutting.

this morning, i drove at 550am from ipoh. it was late. especially when i needed to stop to solat and etc.
and truth was, it felt like my early morning started from the wrong side of the steering wheel. lol.

-started my journey late.
-and had to speed while driving.
-sleepy while driving. focus went from poor 3 to pitiful -1.
-too many melancholy songs while driving.
-podholes!!! and that big concrete on the right lane!!!
-saw poor lil kitten crawling on the busy road and couldnt do anything T__T

reached quarters and the primary kids were lining up for assembly already. I drove in between them like a diva..-_-

it was a tiring morning at school too.
packed with classes.
after school, i took an afternoon nap.
and terlajak to Asar. and man! i had a weird dream of my school ok!!

on a brighter side,
-i sedut Istanbul Aku Datang! from my student. hehe. it has been like ages since my last movie watching.
-and of course, Alhamdulillah, im in one piece, reached SP safely. :)

couldnt wait for CNY holidays.
gonna rest, relax and eat kenduri...
(speaking of, expect few more kilos lah sara...T_T)

p/s: i WILL try, ok, TRY...to exercise at least 3 times a week. for fitness. stamina dah makin ke laut..

Congratulations #4

Salam.

Some might already know that i am officially Mommy Sara, since the birth of my nephew on 4th Jan at 0150am. (so yeah, my bro, abah and baby's birthday gonna be celebrated together, senang! :p)

and i am glad and thankful to ALLAH SWT for having the opportunity to indirectly be in the process of my SIL's labour. and the experience and lessons that i got, were... precious!

The moment he was born, I couldnt wait enough to see his face. 

Seriously, who's he gonna look like? his ayah? his ibu? or his gorgeous aunty? haha. 

and first time jumpa dia..... I instantly fell in love with him...

you are sooo cute baby! mata asyik pejam, pastu kaki tendang2..pergerakan semua macam slow motion..macam dalam perut dulu-dulu...awww.

terus jatuh cinta, snap banyak sangat gambar coz setiap apa yang dia buat semua cuteee. haha.

and now i know how love at first sight feels like.:D

Baby is always a joy. 

it is amazing, how the first time i excitedly felt him kicking in the womb (of my SIL, of course), 

....till the moment i saw him in real, still kicking.. :)

 Mommy Sara loves you Wan Asyraaf Faris <3 

Alhamdulillah, thank you ALLAH for the joy that YOU give us all. 

p/s: Kuasa doa, dengan izin-NYA, mampu mengubah segala.

keluh kesah mak- mak.

Salam.

sembang2 with colleagues (ok, my colleagues are mostly mid 30s with more than 3 kids.lol).
they shared stories about their ex-es.
how they fell in love and so on...

Colleague A : "...ex akak tu handsome,. bistu kenapa akak tak kawen ngan die je?"

with a short and simple answer.... she answered, "jodoh".

*semua terdiam*
-----------------------

Colleague B: "Dia (ex) kak Eton dulu memang satu kelas ngan Kak Eton time belajar. Memang budak paling pandai. sekarang keja ahli farmasi. Dia suka kat Kak Eton. Tapi diaaaam je. tak pernah cakap nak kawin ke apa. Masing-masing malu. Dah, kalau diam, takkan kita pulak nak mula. "

Yang lain-lain: pot pet pot pet *menyampuk* lol.


Banyak ok keluh kesah mak-mak..
Kelakar bila diorang share cerita.=p

p/s: dont feel like eating. though Alhamdulillah, i have fridge full of supplies :p

Congratulations #3

Salam.

Alhamdulillah, after my brothers' birthdays (2 birthdays on Dec), Dila's wedding and
New Year,
then comes my father's birthday. (yeah, daddy's birthday is on 2nd Jan)

Hence another congratulations for beloved Abah.
Sara doakan segala yang terbaik dan terindah buat Abah.
Sara doakan Abah dikurniakan kesihatan dan keberkatan hidup,
kegembiraan dan kesejahteraan berpanjangan di dunia dan akhirat.

I love you so much, Abah.

congratulations #2

Salam.

Congratulations.....(of Dec '12 and Jan '13)

1. ....dearie big bro for your birthday (perhaps final birthday as a single guy?lol).
i love you heaps for.....
a) buying me stuff. (keep the handbag pressies going brother! :p)  
b) bringing me to places that i wanna go and eat
c) entertaining me (and offering urself) when i wanna take photos of myself *manyakkksyoksendiri*. lol    
d) being cool with my male and female friends.  
e) taking care of me (stms more than u care about ur special someone)     
f) love u coz u r my bro and one of my heroes. :D  

protective and proud abess walaupun adiknya debab...*lap air mata*.. :p

2. ......for 'celebrating' 2013 (Gregorian calendar) on the road, in the middle of traffic jam, on my way to go back home from cousin's house. 

jam coz orang park and bersidai tepi jalan nak tengok fireworks..huhu

and Alhamdulillah,1.1.13 made me realized (even more) that,

* women, especially those who're already married, pregnant and mommies, are such strong, radiant and most beautiful beings.  Quoting my own tweet..hehe, "banyaknya pengorbanan wanita (esp yang dah berkahwin, bakal ibu & ibu2). Can't stop expressing how much i think women r d strongest & prettiest when they are preggy". 

enough said :)

* i do appreciate and respect (almost admire) those who make their professions, professional. Like teachers who use their spare time to check students' works, improve their lessons. and doctors who make wise vital decisions within few seconds. seriously, it is not an easy job when it involves others' future and life. the same goes to other professions as well :)

happy new year (though not so new. lol)

may we have a fruitful 2013, in sya ALLAH.

love u all! 

p/s:be more productive! 

congratulations #1

Salam.

the last 2 days of 2012 was my cousin's wedding day!
of course it was a fun, happy and merry day! :)

congratulations beautiful bride and handsome groom! :)

p/s: May both of u be blessed with HIS love, under a blissful marriage

p/s: tarik dan hembus. kerja tak menimbun, syukur. cuma terasa berat; tapi bukan di bahu.

Durian Crepe

Salam,

My dear friend, Abby asks me for durian crepe's recipe.
I got it from the internet actually but i forgot from which site. Huhu..
So here's the recipe (originally from the internet)...

a) the Crepe. haha

*hope u guys could read my handwriting. hehe. *sb=sudu besar *st=sudu teh

Tips (from my hands on, etc.) :
        1) adjust the amount of water, doesnt necessarily use 160ml.
            The final mixture should have that pancake-like mixture.
        2) vanilla powder = i used vanilla essence, half teaspoon.
        3) i add a lil bit of salt.
        4) 40ml susu cair = i use fresh milk.
        5) as my durian crepe is for non-commercial purposes, i use very little coloring.
        6) 50g of flour = around 5 to 6 crepes. haha. it depends on the size and thickness of ur durian crepe. :)
        7) use non-stick pan with slow heat.
        8) when u cook it, do not flip it over. just let the upper part kinda dry.
        9) if you prefer thick crepe, buatlah tebal2. hehe. if thin, buat nipis2 k.
            I like a lil bit thick. so, yeah. haha

b) Le Cream
hehe.. i used the extra whip cream from my Tiramisu.
so basically, for the cream, i whipped Paul's thickened cream with Philadelphia Cream Cheese. haha
put them in the fridge for at least one whole night before i use it for my durian crepe.


So, when both parts are ready, here comes the wrapping part.
1) when you spread the crepe,  make sure the ugly part (the brownish part of the crepe) is on top.
2) put some cream, then durian flesh (jangan taruh biji mahupun duri ok.haha), then cream again.
3) then kasikk bungkus cantik2. hehe.

and most importantly, nak lagik sedapppp....
keep your durian crepes refrigerated + you can dip it with some choc : )

Happy trying :)

p/s: Exam is done, Alhamdulillah :) . thank you all for your prayers :) 

Bismillah.

Salam.

Esok, insya ALLAH, saya ada final exam.
Mohon doakan kejayaan saya ya..
Doakan saya dapat jawab semua soalan dengan tenang dan cemerlang.
Terima kasih :)

p/s: Ya ALLAH, permudahkanlah dan bantulah hamba-Mu ini dalam menjawab soalan peperiksaan kelak dengan cemerlang. Ameen.
