Umar's first Raya!

Umar Hakim , pagi 1 Syawal 1435H

Cuba teka siapa yang lagi excited? Ummi ka Umar?

Hehehe.. Bukti-bukti Umar LAGI excited sambut raya dari Ummi and Ayah =P

BAJU RAYA 

Tema awal : Merah

Umar- Mula beli from the 2nd week of Ramadhan. Total baju.. more than a few pairs definitely =P

Ummi - Tok Umar belanja kain untuk Ummi. Hantar tailor minta buatkan nursing opening kat depan - Hasilnya : agak Disaster. 

Ayah - Malam raya beli di uptown Sungai Petani . Takda size takda warna tema. Ummi paksa beli juga warna yang Ummi rasa lawa *sebenarnya tak lawa sangat*. Sampin Ummi lupa bawa dari KL. Nak beli sampin baru ayah tak mau. -merajuk le tu. =P 

Pagi Raya 1 Syawal 1435H

Umar - Baju Melayu Tok present. Perfect!

Ummi - Loan baju tok sebab baju Ummi tak sama warna dgn Umar and Ayah. *Nasib sama size!*

Ayah - Ummi konfiden masa beli baju ni warna sama dengan baju Umar yang tok bagi. 

Tadaaaa! TAK SAMA. Sampin : Loan dengan Acu. hohoho

Kesimpulannya : Tema pagi 1 Syawal : Ikut Suka Hati.

TAPI, tengahari 1 Syawal baruuu keluar gate rumah nak pergi beraya, Umar buat ONAR. Poo Poo habiss kena seluar AND Sampin ayah! 

Masuuuk balik tukar baju pakai TShirt Tom and Jery sudeh. Ayah TAK pakai sampin. Masa nak cuci poo poo, Umar tarik tudung Ummi. Basah and renyuk.

Tema tengahari 1 Syawal : Caca Merba.  YES.  

BALIK KAMPUNG

Tahun ni beraya di SP my Hometown. Tapi ada me and my brothers saja. Tak cukup korum. My sisters semua turn in laws. So tak apalah kami lah penyeri raya tahun ni =)

Balik raya awal. Khamis (26 Ramadhan) lepas suhur dah bertolak.  Sebenarnya nak balik malam Rabu tu lagi. Tapi biasalah Ummi tidurkan Umar, Umar pun tidurkan Ummi. Lajak sampai pukul 3 pagi baru bangun kemas beg. Pukul 5 baru ready suhur semua siap-siap then bertolak. 

Alhamdulillah jalan tak jam and smooth journey all the way. Umar pun tidur sepanjang perjalanan.*nampak tak Umar excited nak balik raya* =P

Sampai di SP pukul 10 pagi macam tu, borak-borak dgn ayah then pengsan setengah hari. Petang pergi bazar Ramadhan. Berbuka.Tidur lagi. *jet leg ke hape tu*

Jumaat- Misi mencari baju raya ayah. Nak pergi Pekan Rabu awalnya. Sekali keluar pun dah pukul 11 , (tinggal Umar kat Tok Ayah) so bincang balik tak jadi pergi takut kedai banyak tutup sebab Jumaat Kedah cuti plus nak solat Jumaat semua lagi lecey. Pergi kat tapak bazar SP kedai pun tak buka. Makanya pergi Tesco pusing-pusing sampai penat then balik.

Sabtu - Keluar pergi Giant saja-saja . Malam pergi bazar raya. (Tinggal Umar kt Tok & Tok ayah again. heheh. Excited la sangat umar nak beraya=) Syiok! Banyakk gerai. Meriah habis. Jumpa la baju raya utk ayah yang Ummi berkenan. Ayah terpaksa redo. *Kenapa baju raya ayah, Ummi sibuk nak pilih? Biasa laa isteri mithali. hahah*

Sungai Petani sesak di malam raya. Meriah!

Ahad - Paid a visit to sekolah baru Tok Umar. Mentang-mentang la Cikgu and students semua cuti raya, kami anak-beranak pergi teman Guru Besar set up office baru. Umar umur 4 bulan dah pergi sekolah jumpa Guru Besar. hehehe. Petang prepare bahan-bahan masakan, tolong tok masak juadah berbuka and rendang ayam untuk esok nak raya.

Isnin- Raya!

1 Syawal 1435H

Alhamdulillah masih diberi kesempatan untuk berhari raya. Bangun, mandi, solat subuh, iron baju. Good boy Umar tak bangun lagi senang Ummi nak buat kerja.

Sembahyang raya. Most of the years kami sembahyang raya dalam kereta. Sebabb lambatttt sampai masjid orang dah habis solat. Hahahahah.

Tahun ni cemerlang! Pukul 8 dah keluar ke masjid hasil bebelan and peringatan tok yang berterusan. Sembahyang start pukul 9 . Awal jugak la kami sampai. Clap.clap.clap =) *oh. kami refers to TokAyah, Ayah and Acu.Umi and Tok tak g solat jaga Umar=)*.

Balik sembahyang, Ummi and Tok pulak yang kelam kabut baru nak pakai baju raya dari pagi dok sibuk hidang ketupat rendang and siapkan Umar. Kami punca pulak dah. Syukurlah semua gentlemen penyabar orangnya=)

Dah siap semua. Salam raya and bermaafan. Nak syahdu-syahdu memang tak jadi kalau beraya dengan tok and tokyah. Asik gelakk ja. Tak serious tak focus! hehe. Then acara bagi duit raya and bergambar. 

Drama tok and tok ayah di pagi raya. Nak bermaafan gelak-gelak dulu.hehe

Salam duluu baru mintak duit raya

Menantu pilihan =)

Sambil-sambil tu makan ketupat and nasik goreng (nasik malam tadi tak habis pagi ni buat nasik goreng). Di Kedah ketupat nasi jarang ada. Most rumah hidang ketupat palas. Nyam Nyam.

Dah kenyang, baru bertolak ke Alor Setar beraya to my auntie's house and tok-tok sedara yang lain. Makan ketupat sampai separa mabuk, then balik SP kejap mandi siap-siap pergi Bukit Mertajam pula rumah sedara belah Tok Ayah.

Umar and his cousin Faheem

Makan lagi sampai perut tak boleh terima dah baru terasa nak balik.

Alhamdulillah. End of Day 1.

2 Syawal 1435H

Pagi semua bangun pening-pening lalat sikit makanan semalam tak habis digest lagi. Acara mendobi pakaian. Rehat-rehat, makan ketupat lagi tengok tv.

Petang- Umi, Ayah and Umar dah bertolak balik ke Putrajaya sebab esoknya ayah kerja. Masa nak balik and salam dengan tok and tok ayah baru syahdu. Huaaaa.. Nanti kami balik lagi ok tok and tok ayah! Take care!

Alhamdulillah smooth journey cuma kereta banyak juga. Jam sikit sebelum terowong Ipoh tu then lancar. Berhenti di RnR Tapah, makan and solat then terus sampai Putrajaya.

Umar teman Ummi solat di RnR

3 Syawal 1435H

Ayah Kerja.

Ummi basuh baju and kemas rumah. Umar melekat dekat Ummi sambil Ummi buat kerja. Ada gam agaknya dekat Ummi ni sebab tu umar melekat aje. Tapi takpa. Ummi suka=)

4 Syawal 1435H

Raya di Langat yay!

Tapi kat Langat tokma and tokyah tak balik lagi dari Kampung. Jadinya, sementara tunggu tokma and tokyah and ciksu and cikngah and paklang balik, ummi and ayah and Umar lepak SOGO dulu. Amboi. 

Beraya di SOGO =)

Cari hadiah untuk Cikngah nak g Madinah. Cikngah Umar dapat kerja di Madinah. Seronoknya! Congrats Cikngah!! Jangan lupa Umar! Nanti kami nak pergi sana okay!

Pukul 4 baru sampai di Langat. Bawa kuih raya untuk Tokma sebab Tokma kata tahun ni tak beli kuih raya pun. Tup Tup tengok kat dapur tu ada la 8 balang kuih raya + kerepek + kacang. Tokmaa kalau tak beli macam ni kalau beli macam manaa?? hahahah. Takpa raya setahun sekali =)

5 Syawal 1435H

Kemas rumah tokma sebab esok ada majlis doa selamat sempena Hari Raya and CikNgah nak bertolak ke Madinah.

Siap-siapkan bahan masakan untuk majlis esok.

Petang lepas Asar, Ummi, Ayah and Umar ngelat kejap pergi ke Bidor, Perak kawan rapat kami nikah. 

Dekat saja Bidor Alhamdulillah Umar pun okay. Malam tu after majlis nikah, kami tidur di Bidor. Pengantin baik sediakan homestay untuk geng perempuan and hotel untuk geng lelaki. Kami semua geng silat masa di UM dulu. Memang rapat macam adik beradik. Kalau siapa-siapa kahwin rasa macam tak sah kalau tak attend. Malam tu di homestay sesi gossip la of course. Siap ada kanak-kanak and bayi yang join gossip sebab masing-masing dah ada family. Macam nursery dah di homestay tu dengan budak merangkak, berlari, menangis semua. Ok fine. Sesi gosip bertukar jadi sesi Child care and sesi mak-mak ambil petua jaga anak and resipi masak-masak. =)

Geng Silat UM yang makin sihatt semuanya =)

Geng lelaki ngeteh dekat mapley sampai pukul 3. Elok la tu. Bincang masalah negara gamaknya.

6 Syawal 1435h

Pukul 7 pagi kami bertolak balik ke Langat. Kesian tokma tokyah semua kami tak tolong sangat.

Sampai Langat, terus tukar uniform tolong apa yang patut. Pukul 12 tetamu dah mula datang. Lepas Zohor orang Surau datang by pukul 2 macam tu rumah full house. Adik beradik Tok Ayah ada 10 orang campur anak-anak, cucu-cucu ada lah dalam 50 orang. Kawan-kawan CikNgah yang diraikan ada dekat 20 kereta kot. Kawan-kawan Ciksu and Paklang plus jiran tetangga and sedara Tokma semua memang Alhamdulillah la majlis meriah berjalan lancar. Ayam 10 ekor setel. Masak lomak rebung and sambal tempoyak lariss!

Pukul 1 pagi last tetamu balik. Kami semua pengsan macam kena tembak. 

Orang paling penat sekali =)

7 Syawal 1435H

Bangun, makan nasik goreng (nasik lebihan majlis semalam digoreng) baru mula kemas rumah and basuh-basuh semua. 

Tengahari lepas solat Zuhur berjemaah, baru berkesempatan bersalam raya and bermaaf-maafan dengan Tokma TokAyah semua. Family belah Ayah memang syahdu kalau bersalam-salaman. Basah jugak la telekung raya kami ditambah lagi dengan Umar yang menangis lagi kuat dari semua orang sebab takda siapa layan dia.hehe.

Siapa yang lagi excited niii ?? 

Cucu sulung semua orang sayang..hehe

Ciksu, Ummi, Cikngah and Umar!

Tokayah tak pandang camera pun!

Sesi bagi-terima duit raya, then off we go to Majlis Rumah terbuka Rumah Pak Ngah.

Petang balik dari rumah Pak Ngah terus ke Putrajaya.

Home sweet home *Not so sweet sangat la baju nak basuh and lipat bertimbun*

Today 8 Syawal 1435H back to rutin biasa. Kerja-nursery. Ummi teringat-ingat dekat Umar ni almaklumla seminggu melekat dengan Umar.

Ofis masih ada yang cuti. Esok baru full korum rasanya. 

Syukur Alhamdulillah raya tahun ini sangat bermakna sebab kami ada Umar beraya bersama. Umar has been a very good boy sepanjang raya, tak meragam, tak nangis bila orang lain ambil dia and berpura-pura cute bila orang agah dia.

Di celah-celah keseronokan raya teringat juga pada saudara kita di Palestin yang masih berjuang menegakkan syiar Islam. Insaf dan bersyukur sedalam-dalamnya Malaysia masih aman. Berdoa sangat-sangat semoga perjuangan saudara kita di Palestin diberi kemenangan dan mereka diberi kekuatan dan ketenangan menghadapi dugaan sebegini besar.

Mudah-mudahan diberi kesempatan lagi untuk sampai ke Ramadhan akan datang. Pohon ampun dan maaf kepada semua dari kami Munirah and Na'imullah atas semua kekhilafan sepanjang perkenalan kita.

Business is back as usual. Europe Trip is ON! Contact me to know how to get your free tickets with GLAMJourneys and JOM pakai Premium Beautiful to get in shape semula setelah berpulun makan masa raya!

Selamat Hari Raya Maaf Zahir Batin from us

Malaya Dalam Genggaman

Alhamdulillah.. Akhirnya Malaya berada dalam genggaman.. *Read: Dah habis pusing satu Malaysia=) hehe....

Semua negeri dah jejak dan petang tadi jam 4.30 ptg baru kembali dari negeri terakhir yang dijejak, negeri SABAH di Bawah Bayu.. Pergi untuk tujuan kerja, makanya, memang tak sempat untuk pusing satu negeri. Lain kali harus pergi lagi untuk cuti-cuti Malaysia!

Sabah atau khusunya Kota Kinabalu (KK) - the state capital, memang banyak tarikan. Among the attractions are the food, (seafood and Puding Kelapa), Pearls (Bracelets, Necklaces, Butang Baju Melayu, Brooches and what not), the beautiful islands - Semporna, Sipadan, Mabul and of course Mount Kinabalu - The highest peak in Malaysia.

Ketammmm!

Thank You Pn Harlina and Husband
Penaja dinner ..makan sampai lobamm!!

Udang lompat-lompat nak suh makan dia!

Untuk orang Semenanjung yang pergi sana dan tak ada transport, memang kena sedia duit lebih sikit untuk transportation. Fortunatey, since this is a company's trip, our officers in INTAN, Sabah has been very kind and helpful to bring us around KK and show us some good spots for food and shopping.

My dream has always been to go to the beautiful islands in Sabah and of course to Mount Kinabalu. Hasil borak-borak dengan our driver and from my own research,  kalau nak pergi Pulau Semporna or Mabul or Sipadan, we have to take flight to Tawau and from there take boats to go the islands. And for Mount Kinabalu, of course Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) is the nearest airport.

According to the locals, kalau naik Kinabalu usually will take 2 days. Climbing will start in the evening, then spend a night at Laban Rata Resthouse (one of the station before arriving the peak) then continue hiking at about 3am in the morning to  reach the peak just in time with sunrise.

Laban Rata resthouse

Islands on the other hand are very well-known for their sandy beaches,  crystal clear water and very good snorkeling spots. Kalau untuk handicrafts and souveniers, Pasar Philippine and pasar-pasar sekitar Sabah memang penuh dengan barangan buatan tempatan yang murah-murah and cantik.

Pulau Mabul

Pulau Sipadan

Hasil tangkapan-*Konon tak mau beli apa-apa*

Borong brooch!

Therefore for my next trip to Sabah, will definitely bring my family and In Laws together for a nice relaxing holiday. Oh! Kepada sesiapa yang ada kenal mana-mana tour guide or supir or locals yang boleh tolong bawak kami jalan-jalan with good price and service, please leave your comment ya! Thank you!!

See you soon!

OZ TRIP

Hello everyone! Sorry for the loooong silence. Been busy with wedding prep and office works lately.Last few months I was very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to go to Australia for a short business trip. Since i am  still new and considered as young officer in this sector, to have been given this kind of opportunity is a Dream Come True. 

Travelling with a fun team makes the overall trip SUPER FUN! We went to 4 states altogether starting with Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra then back to Sydney again. Australia was nice, cold and full of friendly people. I fell in love with almost everything there except the food. (Malaysia's food is still the best) My favorite part was during  our visits to student's house. Our students can really COOK! Yeayy-hehe!We even get the chance to have picnic at their national park-(VERY NICEEE!!) and we were lucky since it was spring, we get to see blooming tulips at tulip's festival! (oh. i LOVE them all!)

Travelling is indeed one of the best way to chill and relax from our busy hectic schedule.From now on, let us set our target. When and Where to travel! Just like them!

So, here goes some shots taken during the trip. Enjoy the photos!

Muka excited sebelum pegi .. hehe

The Day I Made THE Decision

Hello everyone.! This is my first time  writing a post. Since this is the first time, i shall start this entry by talking about the BIG decision (quoted from naakamaruddin ) i have made the last few days and how does this decision changes my life and transformed me into the person i am today.

April 1st 2012.. I have just returned to my normal life after completing my 6 months course at INTAN Bukit Kiara. This course is a compulsory course that my colleague and i have to undergo as part of the criteria for our job confirmation. I had great fun going through the course and I enjoyed myself the most during the outdoor activities such as the Outwardbound School (OBS), Wataniah Module, Police and Bomba Module as well as the Group Integration Module. The course ended on the 31st of March 2012 with all of us going back to our normal routine and responsibilities.

It was then when my Mr. 'ehem-ehem' asked my hand in marriage (weeee!!)!.. dengan disaksikan oleh pemandangan lampu2 neon Kuala Lumpur dari atas Bukit Ampang dan adik2 yang lepak main guitar kat atas nun..*romantic tapi maluuuuu* huhuhu=)).. He, or also known as Mr.N has been very supportive and patient during the whole course for he had never complained a bit about the limited time i spent with him and the days where i would dozed off while talking to him through the phone due to the  hectic and tiring schedule in the course... ** Did i say YESS to his proposal?? RAHSIA ^_^ **

Then, dah happy2 nak kawen, baru sedar.. I HAVE NO MONEY!!??!! Whaatss! How am i going to get married ?? No savings, no cash, no nothing! Did i tell you, that during the last month of the course was the hardest time where we were required to settle our RM1500 mass kit uniform fee (uniform wane putih peg.kerajaan pakai mase function tu), pay for our batch magazine, fees for our grand dinners (2 dinners ye kawan2 ), farewell party, coffee table book, souvenirs for lecturers, utility bills, car service (yang dah 6 bulan tak berape nak jalan sgt) and so on so on.. Itu belum tambah wedding preps lagik! Uwaaaaa... Bibiee..  I am sooo not ready for marriage!!

Then i started to look for side income desperately.. and along the way i found my senior's facebook page showing her achievement in her business career. I have actually been stalking on her page for quite sometime already.. Since the days where she just started the business. But i have never had the guts to approach her and i never believed that the business can turn out well... I was totally WRONG when i saw her achievement a year after where she can drive her own BMW at the age of 28 and she now wears designer's handbags worth a few THOUSAND ringgits per unit. Oh My GOD..


I know i have to do something..Tak boleh jadii!! Maybe this is the time i thought.. So, i leave a message in her inbox to congratulate her latest achievement and casually asked what's her business is all about. Not expecting any reply soon since she must be very busy, i am THRILLED to get her feedback that very same night.. Appointment was set and on the very next day, June 15th, I finally met the person I have been stalking all this while..: naakamaruddin :..=))

Me and my mentor : naakamaruddin :

That was the day when i made THE decision.. 


and Alhamdulillah.. i made the RIGHT decision. I am part of the team now! and i am earning side income that put a smile trough my face every month! .. I am no longer skipping my meals and after sooo long, I have extra budget to upgrade my phone to a new canggeh one.. I even bought some other things that I have been eyeing before and I am now starting to do my wedding preparation excitedly and happily!!...=)

-My new business tool-

Thank you ALLAH..


I have made my choice.. It's your turn now.. The choice is in your hand.. Call me today and start generating incomes/ side incomes you never imagined!
