Hari jumaat lepas Acoi malas nak pegi keja. Dia kata dia kena flu + cough, aku pun apa lagi amik kesempatan tak pegi keja la jugak konon2 nak jaga acoi la..(sebenarnya aku sendiri pun malas nak pegi keja..hehehe). Sib baik kelas hari jumaat dah tukar ke hari khamis so boleh la excuse.

Lepas lunch tengahari tu dia cakap boring lah dok rumah, dah lama tak berjalan sejak2 aku pregnant ni. "Jom pegi genting". Hehehe..apalagi rezeki jgn di tolak. Aku pun "jom..jom.." jom memanjang. Lepas siap2 lam lebih kurang kul 3, kitaorang pun bertolak ke KL. Sampai kat Gombak kul 7..(KL jam gila masa kitaorang sampai, time orang balik keja) berenti jap kat projet, beli apa2 yg patut utk bekal kat atas tu, pastu terus bertolak ke genting. On d way naik ke atas tu aku risau gak sebab jalan dia curam gila, "naik ke tak keta ni?? jgn undur balik dah ler". Alhamdulillah, dalam gayat2 tu sampai la jugak kat First World Hotel lam kul 8. Acoi pegi check-in dulu, sib baik ada bilik kosong maklumlah kitaorang gamble jer, booking pun tak, buatnya tak der bilik alamat tidur dalam keta la nampak gayanya.

Lepas check-in, mandi2..makan maggi..hahaha makan maggi dulu utk alas perut, pastu terus keluar pegi indoor theme park. Addeena dah excited nampak macam2 ride. Sume ride nak naik, kopak duit aku. Ada satu family ride tu, dia tulis kat papan tanda warning tu pregnant lady tak leh naik. "alamak, camana ni..takpa2..gamble jerlah, hopefully budak yg jaga ride tu tak perasan aku pregant". Hahaha..memang dia tak perasan pun..so terlepas la aku naik ride tu. Tapi dalam hati aku doa banyak2 jgnlah jadik apa2 masa naik ride tu. Bawak Addeena pusing2 dulu kat dalam indoor tu, sempat naik carousel, lam pukul 12 kitaorang balik bilik. Aku pun dah penat berjalan, tambah2 kena carry another passenger kat dalam perut. Sampai bilik terus flat.

I personally felt this article worth to share with other people especially my girl friends. A reminder to all my friends, hei...eventhough most of us just hit 30, not over 30 yet, but we must take a necessary pre caution before it is too late. I'm not trying to be a sexist here, or trying to create a propaganda in your life, just to tell you something for you to ponder with.

This was written by Andy Rooney from CBS 60 Minutes

Andy Rooney says:

"As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?". She doesn't care what you think. If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And it's usually something more interesting.

A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a d*mn what you might think about her or what she's doing.

Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it. wink.gif

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 30. They always know.

A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women or drag queens. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons.

Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.

Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" here's an update for you...Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage."


Rock on Andy Rooney!!!

I've been wondering for quite sometimes:

"I want to do come back for my blog, but, should I do or not? and the most important is how to do it? Is there a people who still want to read my blog or not? Ada lagi ke skill aku nak berblogging ni?"

It has been a long time (a few months I guess) I did not update anything on my blog. I think my blogging skills is a bit rusty already. But I think I have to do come back, I have to write something in my blog or else it will be wasted. Sometimes, when I have something to share with I feel it useless because I cannot post it to my blog. But this times, I will try to make it differently. I will try not make it compulsory or a commitment for me to update it all the times.With my situation right now, my PHD, my comin soon new baby, I don't think I have the time and the energy to update my blog as usual as other people do. I will only write something if I feel that it is worth to share with everybody. To my frenz, I will let you know if I have updated my blog thru my YM status, thus just watch out for it. 

When Adie asked me in my tagboard, where I have being lately, my blog have not being updated, then I realized that I've been abandoning my blog for quite sometimes. I've never been anywhere, never take leave even I wish to, in fact I'm always in my office every single day, "bertapa" like a zombie. So what is the reasons then?

As time flows by, I have been one year in MMU since I joined it on November 2004. So fast, I've never realized it. And it is also means that I only have on more year to start register for my PHD before my contract ends at the end of this year. Or else I believe that I will be in trouble by then. What keeps me so busy lately is because I'm seriously and hardly working with my proposal. It is not an easy task to start with. I've been struggle trying to complete my proposal as soon as possible. My target is trying to finish it before the semester starts again. So how many more weeks left? 2 weeks left, and I still nowhere. I've been consulted a lot of people, my colleagues, my friends, and even my husband Acoi. I've been reading a lot of other scholars articles, journals, thesis, papers, you named it. I even brought those papers home and try to read it but always get disturbed by Addeena who wanted my attention when I'm home. At certain times, I felt give up. Why is it so difficult to write a proposal, even just to decide on the topic itself. But whatever it is, I thanked to some people who always supported me, encouraged me, inspired me to continue with my proposal.

Thus, I might not updating my blog as usual as before till I have completed my proposal. But, I'm sure will update it when I'm quite free, when I feel I have something to share will all of you, and the most important is when the bulb in my head start to lighten up again.

Raya datang lagi...macam lagu Dina Malaysian Idol lak..Cinta datang lagi. Sekejap saja, rasa macam baru semalam saja aku berpulun-pulun anyam ketupat palas ngan mak aku, 2-3 hari lagi nampak gayanya terpaksa lah menganyam ketupat palas lagi, tapi ngan MIL aku la kat PD. Raya haji kat belah-belah utara ngan barat ni tak ler seberapa kalau nak banding ngan belah-belah timur. Kita raya-raya gak cuma tak ler bersakan macam org belah Kelantan, Terengganu beraya. Colleague aku orang Kelantan, siap amik cuti nak dekat seminggu jugaklah sebab nak balik kampung beraya. Aku?? hmm.. petang raya tu still kena jaga exam, boring nyer. Malam tu lah kut baru nak balik PD, sib baik PD dekat. Rasa-rasanya by the time aku sampai rumah PIL aku tu, semua dah setel. Yahooo.....boleh escape..hehehe

Bila cakap pasal haji ni, teringat pasal insiden semalam yg disiarkan kat Buletin Utama, bangunan asrama jemaah haji runtuh di Mekah. Ramai gak yg meninggal, 23 orang, tapi bukan rakyat kita lah. Ada gak rakyat Malaysia yg cedera, 5 orang, terkena serpihan. Tapi yg aku nak cerita ni bukan pasal tu, pasal apa yg Acoi komen bila dengar pasal insiden tu. Acoi cakap "macammana bangunan asrama tu leh runtuh masa ni, masa haji lak tu, sebelum ni tak runtuh pun. Lepas ni sahih ada orang yg bercerita kata ooo..bangunan tu runtuh sebab ada la tu benda yg tak betul". Yg aku nak tekankan kat sini sebenarnya, kenapa kalau ada ja sesuatu yg buruk atau tak elok berlaku kat Mekah mesti nak kait ngan menda-menda yg ajaib. Memang lah aku akui Mekah tu tempat yg suci dan tak mustahil benda-benda ajaib tu terjadi, tapi mentality orang Malaysia ni dah terover taksub sangat la pulak ngan menda-menda macam tu.

Contohnya baru-baru ni masa aku hantar Makcik Toh aku pi haji. Masa kat umah dia malam tu, ada lah segerombolan kengkawan Makcik aku ni datang, derang ni semua geng-geng UMNO. One of them tu, pelakon Aziz Singah tu..alah pelakon Sembilu tu. So derang ni pun dok berceritalah pasal pengalaman pegi haji masing-masing, yg paling banyak bercerita Datuk Aziz Singah ni lah. Aku tak campur lah derang ni bersembang, tapi pasang telinga la jugak. Ada satu cerita yg menarik perhatian aku. Pasal kasut. Kasut pun boleh jadik cerita kat Mekah. Datuk Aziz ni cakap dia pernah hilang kasut masa kat Mekah. Dia kata masa dia hilang kasut tu, dia terlalu dok ingat sangat takut hilang kasut masa tinggal pegi semayang, as if kasut tu lagi penting dari segala-galanya. Bila dia dok asyik ingat kasut, kasut, kasut.. dengan kuasa Allah kasut tu hilang. Merata dia carik, tak jumpak. Ohh..lepas tu baru dia sedar..dia terlalu memikirkan hal dunia, sedangkan dia datang kesini nak beribadat sepuas-puasnya. Lepas dia tersedar tu dia pun niat dalam hati, takpalah, kasut tu dah bukan rezeki dia, dia sedekah sajalah pada sesapa yg amik kasut. Lepas niat macam tu saja, ajaibnya dia pun jumpak balik kasut dia tu.

So moral of the story, masa kat Mekah jgn asyik ingat takut hilang kasut atau benda-benda duniawi ni saja. Kena ingat pasal niat sebenar datang ke Mekah tu untuk apa. Untuk beribadat kepada Allah, untuk menyucikan dosa-dosa lalu, dan untuk menunaikan rukun Islam ke 5.

Dalam hati.."Ishh..bila aku nak boleh pi Mekah ni?"

SELAMAT MENYAMBUT HARI RAYA AIDILADHA
