Ok, picking up my lazy bum to update this blog. There's sooo many things to tell but so little time. So to summarize my updates:
  1. Have been to Portland and back since 4th April.
  2. My man took me on a roadtrip to Canada to visit his sister coz she just delivered a baby boy.
  3. I bought a Pink Sony Vaio Laptop in USA coz it's really worth it.
  4. I got accepted into Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Given 6mths exemption so will be starting this October.
  5. Currently working part-time at Bodyshop. Great Singapore Sale!

So yeah, that's abt it for now. Will drag my bum to update again. Toodles...

Leaving on a jet plane...

OMG! OMG! OMG!!!

I'm leaving for Portland in 12 hours time and i still haven't pack my luggage yet! I am panicking believe me.. but i still can't get my lazy bum to get moving and start packing. Looking at all the winter clothings... i hate folding them coz they're soo thick! Looks like i can't bring too many fancy clothings coz those sweaters are taking too much space.

Aunty Maimoon lent me her long trench-coat. It's beautiful but it's too big! I look like a wrapped midget and my head is soo tiny. Haiz.. but looks like i can't turn down the offer coz she took the trouble to come all the way to my place to lend me the coat.

Ok.. my grandma just screamed at me coz she's mad i'm still at the computer and not packing yet. I'm still downloading songs by Debbie Gibson to my iPod. I am obsessed with oldies songs these days like Chicago, Chaka Khan and this song playing right now "Foolish Beat" by Debbie Gibson.

Ok ok.. better start packing now. Ciao!

Oh wow... it's been a loooong time since i blog. I've been so lazy to brag about my life lately. LOL! But my gurls have been complaining about being "so sick" of my un-updated blog.

So here i am...

Let's see what i can brag about first... Oh! I did pretty well for my finals. Got a GPA of 3.7! I am sooo going to apply for Ngee Ann Poly and pursue my Diploma in Nursing.

I went back to ITE College East a week ago to do a presentation for the new principal, Dr. Ricky Tam, and the year 1 students regarding the Overseas Student Exchange Program that i participated to Melbourne, Australia. It was an interesting experience. I felt like a Star with posters and banners and billboards with my face on it. Kinda cool!


Happy times! Can't wait for my graduation where i'll get to see all my Nursing mates. I'm gonna miss my nonsense bunch of people who made my day in campus.

On the next day after my graduation, I'll be leaving for United States. Gonna see my boo and spend 6 weeks with him in Portland. I am soooo darn excited. I'm counting down the days till I see that crooked nose and sexy crooked smile again. Hehe! Awww.. he brings me joy. Nothing in this world can describe the feeling when i'm with Abdul.

Alot of people asked how we do it.. how did we keep this long distance love going for more than a year now... Honestly, i wonder too! LOL! I asked him and he too is still kinda amazed at how we're lasting and how we're still crazy about each other just like the first time. He thinks that there's alot of understanding in our relationship. I agree too! Obviously there's ups and downs... But we focus more on the laughters than the tears. And although we only met up for a short period of time and spend apart most of the time... we made most of the times we're together the most loving, and memorable time spent!

All those little things that he do for me. I would love to share more but it's something for me to treasure deep in my heart as they are personal precious memories.

That's all for now till i brag more later... Toodles!

So Sick of Being Sick!

Yeah, i know i know. It always takes me forever to update my blog. Why? Coz i got lazy and work have tire me out. Being attached all the way to SGH (Singapore General Hospital) now ain't really helping too. Travelling takes one and a half hour from where i lived. And you have to walk up the damn hills to the Hospital and got all tired before you even start work.

Today, i didn't go to work. I'm on sick leave (MC).

I have a fever, cough, cold, body aches, sore throat (but the Doc said it might be an Ulcer!) coz it hurts sooo bad!! I even got nose bleed. It's been too heaty these days.. and my problem is, i drank too little. I'm dehydrated!

So sadly, i got to replace on Saturdays for my sick leaves. I can't replace next Saturday coz it's Abang Fareez's Wedding and i'm the bridesmaid. The thought of being a bridesmaid kinda stress me out too coz i need to lose weight by next week to be able to fit into my dress!!

I had a dream last nite. I was on a date with my man... we were just spending quality time together when suddenly there's a.... CALL BELL!?!?!
Why on earth is there a call bell in the middle of my date? Aren't i supposed to be off-duty by then??
And u know what? I actually told my boyfriend to wait coz i got to attend to my patient who pressed the call bell!

LOL!

Ramadan Shopping

Apparently, Sarina & I was out looking for Sharon's birthday present today. We searched high and low for the best deal in town for Salvatore Ferragamo Perfume. And somehow, Sarina made a *HUGE* purchase for herself too. I'm not sure if i should reveal it here in my blog. She might want to share the news herself on hers so i'll just leave it to her to unravel the surprise. But i must say that i'm excited and JEALOUS!! LOL! Another accomplishment on her wish list.

We then head out to Geylang Bazaar. The hot spot for shopping this beautiful Ramadan. We first made our way to Joo Chiat Complex Islamic bookstores to look for a Quran in English Translation for Sharon. Zai & I shared cost and this is our birthday gift to Sharon.

Yes! Sharon in not a muslim but surprisingly she asked for a Quran for her birthday. Allahu akhbar... this is more than our pleasure not to decline for our fellow friends to learn more about our beautiful religion rather than being prejudice towards us.

I also bought one Quran with Roman Transcript and English translation -All in One- for myself too. Alhamdulilah. It cost for S$15 only! I need this to better myself and educate myself in understanding the Quran. This is truly the most sacred gift that is so close to my heart. My next step towards my resolution. I am so proud of myself. Mashaallah.

Sarina bought herself one too. I am so proud of my bestfriend. May Allah guide her to right path always and grant her jannatul firdous. Inshaallah. Shall we get Zai one too as her wedding present?? Hehe!



We then can't help but to notice the stall opposite with the glam and glitters of Abayyas. I dragged Sarina there coz I really wished to wear Abayya this Eid Mubarak. And Sarina is the BEST person to bring to bazaars coz this homegirl can BARGAIN! And she'll give you the most honest opinion which you'll treasure. So i managed to buy this Abayya for S$70!!! The usual price of it is $85. I am so excited. Is it nice??

Tiny Tot in Tudung (TTT)


Baby Zahwa came to my house for Iftar today. She is so adorable! Mashaallah! With the beautiful hijab nicely placed over her tiny head worn with her favourite black Abayya. She is by far the 1st toddler that didn't take off their headwear be it caps, ribbons, hair bands and let alone Hijabs!

Today, after it's time for Iftar... this tiny cutie was the first to carry her plate and scoop some rice. She then quietly sits on the floor and eat her plain rice with no gravy at all. And she is so lovely. She love her pictures to be taken and she will view them and praise herself. She will point out her pictures and said 'Ni lawa'. Which means "This is pretty" in english.

By the way, "TTT" is nicknamed by my friend, Anna. Hehe! And i thought it fit my little baby cousin perfectly.

During Iftar


After Iftar


I wonder who is she making the phone call to... she looked so serious! hehehe!


A smile from the precious little Zahwa! Totty Goodbye!

Surah Yasin

Beautifully recited by a gifted young boy. This special boy's name is Ahmed Saud. Mashaallah... it brings tears to my eyes listening to him. May Allah bless him and his parents.

You look at me and call me oppressed,
Simply because of the way I'm dressed,
You know me not for what's inside,
You judge the clothing I wear with pride,

My body is not for your eyes to hold,
You must speak to my mind, not my feminine mould,
I'm an individual, I'm no mans slave,
It's Allah's pleasure that I only crave,

I have a voice so I will be heard,
For in my heart I carry His word,

"O ye women, wrap close your cloak, so you won't be bothered by ignorant folk"

Man doesn't tell me to dress this way,
It's a law from God that I obey,
Oppressed is something I'm truly NOT,
For liberation is what I've got,

It was given to me many years ago,
With the right to prosper, the right to grow,
I can climb mountains or cross the seas,
Expand my mind in all degrees,

For God Himself gave us LIB-ER-TY,
When He sent Islam,
To You and Me!
