Long time no see......

Assalamu'alaikum dan salam sejahtera....

Isk..isk...isk...bertahun rupanya blog ni menyepi tanpa sebarang cerita dan berita....hmmm...maklumlah selama ni tak ada akses internet....sekaranglah baru dapat guna jalur lebar ni sebab la ni dah balik semula ke Kota Kinabalu, bersatu semula satu keluarga..Alhamdulillah...

Akhirnya bergelar suri rumah setelah berbelas tahun berkerjaya....Alhamdulillah, walaupun bersara awal dapat jugalah merasa hasilnya...ramai juga yang bertanya ada perancangan lain ke?Dapat bisnes bagus ke?Mesti ada yang lebih hebat menanti kan? Memang hebat.....my precious time with family....!! Tidak terfikir lagi nak mencari pekerjaan lain..buat masa ini menguruskan rumahtangga dan persekolahan anak-anak...masa akan datang tak pasti...Setahun merasa keluarga terpecah (Sabah - Rawang) tidak betah melalui kehidupan seperti itu...rela melepaskan kerjaya agar keluarga tetap bersatu...anak-anak masih memerlukan bimbingan kedua ibu bapa...hidup hanya sementara, tidak pasti sampai bila boleh bersama maka selagi ada peluang biarlah tetap bersama di bawah satu bumbung...

Semoga Allah senantiasa melimpahkan Rahmat dan BarakahNya....Amin

Sacrifice

One morning while I was driving to work, hoping not to be trapped in traffic jam,(o dear....I miss my housewife title) I was listening to Santapan Minda Sinar FM conveyed by Dr. Fadhilah Kamsah. He talked about teacher. I liked one of his phrase, "teachers are not like candle which burn itself to give light to others, but teachers are like sun, shine for others without burning itself". yeaahhh....me tooo...I don't want to be candle I want to be sun...shining others and make myself happy. Sacrifice for others but not to sacrifice myself as well. I can sacrifice for my family; my husband, my sons and my daughter....but my sacrifice will not be in vain....I hope so...even though we are scattered but we are still one...the loneliness and unhappiness..now.. are the sacrifice for future happiness...is that like candle???

Rehlah fi shaatiul bahri...

My laptop doesn't has the arabic letters.....so the title was written like that, it means picnic at the beach. Last Saturday, 31 July 2010, I brought my children to Tanjung Aru beach for recreation. The boys played football and my girl build the sand castle helped by her little brother. Me? Just enjoying watching them and the scenery. My hubby? Unfortunately he wasn't around...duty call, out-stationed for three weeks....down-under...missssed him...

I just wanna try...

One day, my neighbour, Kak Ita gave me rendang pucuk paku. Its delicious, thanks Kak Ita. The rendang reminded me of another traditional food; rendang pucuk ubi. I used to eat this long time ago, my sister in law, Allahyarhamah Kak Ngah Azizah loves to make this rendang (semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat ke atas ruhnya...Amin). It was very delicious. Then, based on my vague memory and recipes from internet, I tried to cook the rendang. It was yummy but not very crunchy...it supposed to be crunchy!!..I need to improvise it...I think the coconut milk was not enough...never mind I will try again...meanwhile just enjoy what I've prepared...lalala

My rendang pucuk ubi....


Ready to eat with nasi lemak.....mmmmm

My dedication especially for you...

Berjuta batu jauhnya

Akanku tinggalkan cinta dan rindu

Padamu kasih

Aku berjanji

Akan tetap setia selalu

Berjuta batu jauhnya

Akan kutinggalkan dirimu

Tujuh lautan akan kulintasi

Demi suatu pengorbanan

Bunga-bunga berguguran di sinar bulan

Akan kubawakan untukmu segalanya

Taburkanlah bunga di pusaraku

Andai tiada kupulang

Cintamu tetapku kenangi

Walaupun hingga akhir nanti

Missing you...

Living far away from family, I missed many occasions; weddings, births, sickness, meetings and so on....luckily my family and my in-laws understand our situation for not being able to be there...

Dear families and friends, whatever it is we always praying for the best for all of you....walau jauh kau tetap ku kenang....

Sabah tourism song, Sayang Kinabalu, popular in Sabah. Very nice song, I like it.

Below is the bamboo music version, very soothing:
