Some kind of Valedictory speech

sebab best student dapat buat valedictory speech kite pun nak la jugak kan..cuma yg membezakannya adalah best student dapat present his speech during the convocation ceremony and saya just dapat type jela..haha.. here it goes...

after all those struggling years..this is the day that im waiting for. the day where all the hard work were paid for. a degree scroll !!! its like a pay cheque for the labours except you will only get it once and for all..and its not money!

One and a half year of foundations studies and four years of degree is impossible to be done and over with without some special force from some special people and of course the almighty Allah s.w.t.

special thanks goes to..

mak and abah,
I wouldn't be here if not because of both of you. I would probably left law school long time ago if not because of your moral support. Thanks for those hard work to convince me that this is the right place for me. Thanks for those motivational talk every single moment. Thanks for listening to my ramblings. Thanks for comforting me whenever I had those stressful moment. Thanks so much from the deep of my heart for everything that I failed to mention here. Thank you for being such a great parents.

my kakak and two adik,
my world would probably turn upside down if you guys were not there. Thanks for being such a wonderful siblings cum bestfriends, for being the most loyal people and stand beside me through thick and thin (although you guys had no other choice but to be there as we are siblings..haha), for showing me that a failure is never a failure but just a second chance for us to keep going, for your understanding as I can be a little bit intolerable sometimes and for your honest comment that somehow grown me up. Thank you for being my kakak and my adik-adik (but we were more like happy friends living together..^^)

my bestest girlfriend ever,
siapalah saya di Aikol itu tanpa korang semua..haha. You guys are my bestfriends, roomates, classmates, mooting partners, groupmates assignments and everything that we can possibly be during the past 6 years..and counting! Thanks for become a shoulder for me to lean on, thanks for wiping my tears and listening to my sobbing, thanks for letting me cry randomly, thanks for keep supporting me throughout my failures and be there throughout my success, thanks for being my comrade to walk through this journey. congratulations,at last we all made it together. All our hard work were paid for!

my classmates,partners,seniors,juniors,girlfriends and boyfriends,
yeah..whomever you are im glad you all were once there to keep this life more interesting. my student's life would not be this interesting if none of you were there . seriously! we met we not understand why but we learn something more than money can buy and more than life can trade. Thank you for willing to be a part of my life story.

my lectures and tutors,
what can I say more. Obviously you guys are the most important people that brings me to where I am today. Despite my poor performance in class and my lack of participation in tutorials tapi anda semua tak pernah menolak kehadiran saya di iium.that im glad!

my supporting team,
ini termasuklah makcik kantin,abang photostat,kakak office,adik jaga kiosks,pakcik guard dan makcik guard dan semua yang terlibat menjaga keharmonian kehidupan saya sepanjang belajar disini. Tanpa korang kualiti hidup saya terjejas..hehe.much thanks!

my extra supporting team,
ini termasuk perkara2 yang berada di alam maya iaitu social media, google search, wikipedia, lexisnexis, lawnet, opac and ecetra yang tak pernah menghampakan saya sepanjang proses pembelajaran. (kena hantar thank you note nih..haha)

last but not least thank you to iium itself for accepting me to be a part of the team in this garden or knowledge and virtue.

I thank all of you with all my heart. Alhamdulillah and Thank you ^.^

p/s; ucapan yang agak poyo ini ikhlas datang dari sudut hati yang paling dalam..hehe.

Kisah jodoh

Jodoh itu salah satu rezeki dari Allah. salah satu rahsia Allah yang sampai bila-bila pun kita takkan dapat tahu apa yang tersirat di sebaliknya. Yang kita sedar hanya the fact that indeed jodoh itu datang dan pergi tanpa sebarang warning beforehand. yang ada ditangan kita hanyalah pilihan sama ada untuk mengenggam rezeki jodoh itu atau membiarkan ia pergi. still at the end of the day kita tak akan tahu pun keputusan apa yang terbaik sebenarnya. Hanya perlu yakin yang segala yang berlaku tentu ada hikmah di sebaliknya.

Jodoh itu datang dalam pelbagai bentuk. persahabatan, persaudaraan, kekeluargaan, jodoh sebagai guru dan murid, jodoh sebagai bos dan pekerja ataupun yang paling menjadi hukum norma adalah jodoh sebagai suami isteri.

setelah jodoh itu hadir, ada sesuatu lagi yang belum kita pasti dan tak mungkin akan kita pasti sampai bila-bila, iaitu sampai bila jodoh itu akan dapat bertahan. Bukan kerana salah sesiapa tetapi memang itu yang telah ditetapkan. sekali lagi dijelaskan bahawa jodoh itu rezeki, dan rezeki itu mungkin hak kita untuk jangka masa yang lama dan boleh jadi jugak hanya untuk sementara.

Jadi, dapat disimpulkan disini bahawa, apabila rezeki jodoh itu hadir dalam apa jua bentuk sekalipun, jangan begitu mudah menolaknya tanpa usul periksa juga jangan terlalu taksub mendakapnya tanpa sebarang batasan. Bersederhanalah dan bersyukurlah. Selagi rezeki itu ada dalam genggaman jagalah ia sebaiknya kerana kita tidak tahu bila waktunya ia akan ditarik balik dari genggaman, dan bila rezeki itu ditarik balik, redhakanlah ia pergi kerana segala sesuatu itu bukan hak mutlak sesiapa kecuali Allah.

Selagi masih bernafas kita di muka bumi ini selagi itu masih berpeluang untuk kita mendapat rezeki dari yang maha esa. selagi terdaya, berusaha, berdoa dan bertawakkal semoga dimurahkan segala rezeki dan dipermudahkan segala urusan. Amin.

p/s; alhamdulillah for today. pray for a better tomorrow.

Doa untuk Baba..

Salam,

This post is for my dearest girl, Shueda..

Since saya merantau jauh dari rumah just for the sake of study and seeking knowledge,
I seldom went back to my hometown..unless ada cuti panjang and for sure cuti during weekend never give me the opportunity to go back home no matter how much i missed my family.

One of the place yang saya selalu stayed at during weekend is at Shuda's house. Since kitaorg foundations lagi saya selalu ikut dia balik rumah. I'm practically her family's adopted daughter. I'm getting attached to her family as if they're mine..staying at her house all these years make me feel that her life is also a part of  my life..i've known her Baba, i've known her Mama, i've known her brothers, cousins and aunts...

Early this year, Baba had passed away...leaving all of us in this world. His absence gave a great impact to all of us. Baba was a great man, and a great daddy to Shuda and family. I've seen it with my own eyes how much he loved them and how much they love him.

Sepanjang saya menjadi tetamu tetap kat rumah Shuda, Baba always welcomed me with a warm smile, always brought us to good places to eat and always shared with us his life experiences for us to learn from...and today is Baba's birthday but Baba is no longer around. And one thing i wish I've done is thank him big enough for all the kindness i've received all these years. Thank you so so much for everything.

Dearest shuda, i will always pray for you...for you to be strong and for you to live your life with nothing but happiness. Baba may not be around any longer..but he was once here and had gave you many pretty memories. Treasure those memories and at the same time create new memories for your life today and everyday that will come. I'll always stand beside you whenever you need me.

p/s: Al-Fatihah untuk arwah Baba. semoga rohnya akan ditempatkan di kalangan orang-orang yang beriman..ameen.


lots of love,

Bonding moment..

salam,

seperti yang telah sedia maklum...me is not alone. me comes with three other girls! equals to four ladies in the town bebeh!!
you'll never spotted us alone..itu pasti...well dulu la..time sama-sama study. time sama-sama muda remaja.
And sekarang bila dah abes study..semua gone to our separate ways..masing-masing dah kerja..and for sure tempat kerja sememangnya tak sama..dan yang masih belum kerja ni pun semestinya tidak akan berada di tempat kerja yang sama juga..tak macam dulu, celik-celik mata je dapat tengok muka masing-masing, sekarang ni semua dah jauh..and kalau nak jumpa kena check schedule masing-masing and plan a week before in advance for a date..

Bila dah lama tak jumpa..sgt2 missed moment happy together dulu...and sebab tu ktaorg decide nak meet up and have an awesome date together and the date comes with sleepover at shuda's house!!

last week plan tu berjaya dilaksanakan..horeyyy!!!
tapi one of us (wahida) yang juga masih belum bekerja tak dapat join sebab tuntutan assingment..huhu

Dua gadis yang dah bekerja tu (shuda and Azz) dtg jemput saya yang masih belum bekerja ni kat hostel..and sungguh excited berselca dalam kereta time2 traffic light merah sambil mulut masing2 tak stop talking and gossiping..update story la katakan..

then masing-masing lapar so decide nak makan meatball @ikea..tapi bila melihat insan lapar sungguh ramai kt ikea ktaorg tak jadi lah nak join sekaki. tapi dlm lapar2 tu sempat jugak la camwhore kt ikea..

lapar tetap lapar so decide lunch at vivo@thecurve!
sungguh lazat dan mengenyangkan insan2 kelaparan ini..

 after that jalan2 kt street market and TheCurve..

sambil jalan gossiping lagi..talking lagi...pastu shuda mengidam nak makan paddington pancake..moh ke paddington house of pancake ler kiter..high-tea!!! #melovedesserts
mmg baek punye ktaorg makan manisan malam2..

Bila malam dah meninggi, kaki masih gatal nak berjalan..so decide nak jejak i-city pulak..

lama giler ktaorg maen kat art trick museum..serious gempak!!

bila malam dah semakin tak muda...kena la kembali ke dasar..off to sleep at shuda's..and sgt best dapat sleepover sama2..time tu sgt berharap wahida dpt join..kalau sorg takder xcukup la korum...bintang pun tak lengkap tau...see!! we missed wahid!!!

Esok paginye tiba-tiba text msg masuk..and guess what?? wahida text ckp dia nak join lunch sama2..dia nak turun Subang semata nak jumpa ktaorang....aaaawww soo sweetttt..see! we never alone...kan dah cakap..tak mungkin tertinggalnye sorang...and bila datang pulak cik wahida ni...mulut semua start balik gossiping and talking all the way..semua cerita harus direwind and direpeat untuk bg update kat wahida pulak..

for lunch that day kitaorang decide nak makan makanan asian pulak...so moh ke Siam @subangparade yg menyajikan thai food!

and makanan kat sini sangat best!!! serious tak tipu punye!! (maap tak sempat nak snap gambar semua makanan sbb semua mengalami simptom 'too hungry to hold and snap picture'...
lunch that day sangat bahagia.

after lunch sempat bawak wahida pulak jalan-jalan..sunway piramid..and space U8..

that night shuda hantar kitaorg balik hostel..huhu sedey esok dah start kelas and those two kena pegi kerja..and tak tau bila lagi boley jumpa..yang pasti this is not the ending of us!!

good food.good day.with good people.created good story and happy memory.

That's what we called our bonding moment! XOXO


p/s: saya sangat bahagia dengan mereka. semoga this friendship will last for eternally..ameen.


lots of love,

Falling For Hamlet!

salam,

I love books. Okey. Itu memang dah judicially notice. Then one day about several months back saya nampak this one book dalam catalogue Kinokuniya…Falling For Hamlet. And once saya baca dua tiga line punye sinopsis kat dalam catalogue tu immediately saya yang terfalling for hamlet. I really want to read the book! Macam interesting sangat.

So, menapak lah ke Kinokuniya again dengan tujuan yang satu..just for Falling for Hamlet. Sampai je terus cari…and tak jumpa-jumpa…then terus tanya kat counter. Dapatlah assistance tolong carikan..tengok-tengok assistance cakap 'sorry, dah habis stock'…what? Sangatlah..selama ni cari buku apa pun ada je..time-time kesempitan dan mengidam ni jugak lah nak dihabiskan stocknya…huhu.sedih.

After that day, tiap kali saya melawat mana-mana bookstore mesti akan tercari jugak Falling for Hamlet tu. And sadly enough semua kedai nak terhabis pulak stocknya..memang sampai sudah saya tak dapat baca buku tu…sampai hati Hamlet..

Until this one fine day…I woke up early sebab ada breakfast date with my two besties and kitaorang lepak kat kedai breakfast until 10..so much for a breakfast..hehe. Then balik campus, singgah library cari buku untuk final exam..(yeah..sekarang tengah study week..), then singgah photocopy centre untuk photostat notes and print assignment..bila dah siap semua, then tetiba my sorang bestie ni cakap dia ada satu lagi benda nak print tapi saya tak boleh tgk…haha sangatlah kan..okey..fine.. ai tak tengok punye…so saya pun duduk lah berehat bawah pokok nun dari tempat photostat tu.

Lama pulak dia print kan…tapi sebab ai dah diberi mandat untuk tak tengok so takder la nak gi tanya kenapa tak siap-siap lagi..tengah saya membelek dan menelek notes-notes yang photostat tadi tiba-tiba datanglah kawan saya yang sorang ni bawak dua bundle besar kertas yang dah siap compiled. Baru nak tanya notes apa yang tebal sangat dia print tetiba…tadaaaaa!!!!! Bundle tebal itu berada di atas riba saya and bundle itu bertajuk FALLING FOR HAMLET!!!!!  Aaaaaahhhhhh!!! (okey, memang ai jerit kat situ…haha).

Seriously! Ini serious! Falling for Hamlet kat depan mata saya sekarang!!  Awwwwww…soooo sweeettt kawan saya ni…dia printkan the e-book version of Falling For Hamlet untuk saya and tulis notes kat dalam tu 'enjoy reading'….terharunya…who cares about all the bookstores yang selalu nak menghabiskan stock buku..ai ada bestie yang love me enough sampai sanggup search and printkan the book for me! Jelous enough? Haha. Memang rasa nak brag all the way..terima kasih kerana menjadikan hari ini bahagia…=) saya dapat benda yang saya dah cari berkurun lamanya dalam sekelip mata..Alhamdulillah.

p/s: thanks so so so much babe!! I'll treasure it well=)

regards,
