Uish..lame gile aku x menulis dlm blog ni...even though byk je bende yg aku perlukn pendpt korg 2-3 bln kebelakangan nih...tp rase mcm x patut tulis...huhu

mane nak start ek...dlm bln pose last yr, aku ade gi interview utk scholarship NSF (national science fellowship) under mosti  , dgn shakirin skali...then early of november lak, aku ade apply scholar from uitm under TPM (tenaga pengajar muda)...dpt masuk 2nd interview....dgn fazli plak..

kalo ikut hati mase nih, of course le nak uitm tuh punye, coz balik terus jd lecturer...yg nsf tak sure lg psl keje n lagipun aku x brape minat course yg aku mintak tuh...

so start time nih hati au dah berbelah bg giler...takut kalo dpt nsf dulu, aku x kan dpt amik uitm dah coz kalo langgar contract kene byr rm80 ribu je..hahaha..mane nk cekau duit...

so, disember, aku dpt surat dr NSF, kate aku dpt scholar tuh..nasib baik time tuh juz suruh sign surat penerimaan..blum sign agreement lg....bln januari lak, kol uitm diorg kate dpt scholar tuh, dpt gi oversea...punye la tunggu surat dr uitm, x sampai2....so dlm bln 2 kol balik uitm..diorg kate ade bende kene rombak balik coz maybe ramai giler diorg amik, ...in the same time, surat perjanjian NSF dah smpi utk aku sign...time nih mmg gelabah gak la...kalo aku x sin NSF, lum tentu dpt uitm, melepas la aku scholar...tp kalo sign, x leh amik uitm dh kalo dpt...so aku tggu last2 minute, tnye pndpt famili n kwn2 rapat....

last2, anpe sembahyang istikharah (haha)..aku pun melepaskn NSF tuh even uitm x confirm...sebabnye, aku mmg x leh fokus kat tajuk tuh dah..mmg x leh nak minat dah....so tawakal je la skrg nih...alo x de scholar, buat le gune dana FAMA mcm yg di plan awal2 dulu...

Last week lak, gi interview SLAB UM lak...tuh pun x tau le dpt ke x...so, skrg nih, ape2 pun tggu uitm..sambil tggu prof norma balik, nak bincang dgn dia tukar tajuk research..huhu

10 hb feb, aku ade amik IELTS dgn shakirin, adli dgn fazli...diorg dpt SLAB UM first round punye...aku saje je amik..suke2 nak amik xm...huhu...time tuh kitorg pening gak la kepale nak amik IDP ke bristish council...lsat2 aku pujuk diorg amik bristish council sbb after SPM dolu2, aku pnh amik short course kat sane..so selese sket...

kitorg x amik kelas or workshp die (budget terer la konon)...tp dlm mase 2 weeks b4 xm, lebey kurang everyday, kitorg ber-4 jmpe utk study la sket2 especially part reading n listening....

Alhamdulillah..kitorg lulus dgn kepujian la gak..hihi...aku dpt band 7.5, kwn2 lain dpt 7.0...tuh pun diorg marah aku, kate kalo amik kat IDP mesti diorg leh dpt 8.0..hahaha...kecik ati aku....hihi...gile ar grateful kat korg bertiga..kalo xde korg, msti aku x study n dpt teruk..thanks ek...

so skrg nih, aku masih maintain dgn tusiyen n part time tutor um...ikut hati nk benti je sume keje nak lepak..tp duit xde..huhu...

korang2 doakan yg terbaik utk aku ek...dpt or tak dpt scholar pun, aku still akan sambung master aku...Nadot boleh!!..hahahaha...

okai le..nk main MCF Ravenhearst...later!!

As usual, dalam bulan pose mesti kitorg (bdk2 'puteri' smakl batch aku) akan wat small reunion utk bukak pose...and for this year, i was the organizer..huhu..

It was held on 7th October 2006 in Seoul Bulgogi, Plaza Pantai. At first i was afraid that many couldnt join bcoz of the quite expensive price. But as i called my friends, they were very supportive and by the end of the day, 21 girls were agreed to join the reunion.

Then suddenly, i was thinking to spice the reunion a lil and i called kamarul and aizat to invite some of our 'putera' smaklian (1st time in our bukak pose history since we left school, we invited the putera). And they did a very good job - 13 guys agreed to join us.

I called the Seoul manager (Desmond) to book the place for 34 people and tried to persuade him to reduce the price (the exact price with tax w/out drinks - rm36.70). After a lot of persuading, negotiating, sweet talk (huhu), he agreed to give us 4 pax free and half price for the drinks (i nvr thought i'm a good 'negotiator'...hihi).

So, on the 7th, at 7.30 pm (after mgrb of course) we met at Seoul Bulgogi. One thing that made me proud was the presence of ex-smaklians yg kuar SMAKL after form 3 & bertahun-tahun x jumpa - nayot, dian & saleh.

Anyway, the night was really really fun. Felt like i was transported back to 6-7 yrs ago when i was still a student of SMAKL. All my friends change a bit, of course, but the feelings were the same.

While we were eating, Yah suruh aku tgk dari hujung meje sini ke hujung meje sane. Tak phm gak ape signifikan Yah suruh wat mcm tuh, the she said "Look at all the faces, they are really enjoying themselves. Congrats". And i did feel like the happiest person there...huhu

With 34 people coming, of course we havent had much time to talk to each and everyone there. But we did say hi and exchange story for a few minutes before we moved to talk to another friend. Nevertheless, the night was a success to me. Everyone mingled around well even the guys which i never spoke to in school pun, bley masuk je.

Again, i would like to thank all my friends yg dpt dtg join bukak pose itu hari. To Yah, faisz, sare, zeila, shidah, sue, dian, pnut, amal, dawat, mau, fura, ros, pj, farid, izza, nayot, mashit, raie, bai, aizat, saleh, zul, anas, kamarul, imran, mazdan, azrul hakimi, azrul effendi, usop, alonge, aie n uzain, korang mmg the best..hehehehe.. (sbb korg join korg the best la...kalo x join, tak de nye korg best...hua hua hua..)

Hope we get to this every year. May Allah bless us..

Okay...I already forgave 'that someone' from my previous blog. We're cool. I guess..haha...And i made that someone promise never to lie to me again...But deep in my heart, i know, that someone will do it again....and this process of being hurt and forgive will start all over again for until-God-knows how many times...

I know forgiveness is a good thing, but sometimes i think i forgive too easily and in the end, i know i will hurt again....huhuhu..

Today is the 1st day of Ramadhan. The time is 1330 and i just woke up half an hour ago..hohoho...At 1415, I have to go to UM to see my lecturer..(bayangkan hari Ahad gi UM jmpe lecturer)....Actually she's on her sabbatical in Singapore, therefore, i only can see her on weekend when she get back to Malaysia.

Okayla..nak mandi...get ready to bukak pose..silap..get ready to see my lecturer...huhuhu...papai...

Today, i was being lied by 'someone' i trusted (not anymore) so much in my life, and suck..it hurts like hell....it was just a small lie but i hate liars and i hate being lied to...

And the reason for 'that someone' to lie was 'nothing'.. 'THAT SOMEONE' LIED TO ME FOR NO REASON...and did 'that someone' think i was going to believe that??...does anybody lie without at least A reason??...bullshit giler ah....

Lotz of thing happenned in August but havent had the chance to write 'em here. been bz working morning till nite pouring all my isi perut out...huhu...

My birhtday is in August, i graduated in August, our family day dekat kampung was in August, went to bukit merah with my family in August...pendek kate..macam-macam ada in August....hohoho....It will take me days or even month to write all these memorable event here in the blog...so..i'll pass...

I'm in my office rite now, Think PLus Consulting Sdn Bhd where i work from 9am to 1 pm as an exec. Then at 2.30 i have a tuition class in a tuition centre nearby for 2 hrs then at 7 pm-10 pm i have another class in the same tuition centre. Monday until friday except on thursday, my tuition classes are in a centre in selayang, 15 minutes driving distance from menjalara, 7-10 pm. So, i go to work at 9 am everyday and sampai rumah at 10 pm.

Tu tak termasuk dengan my part time tutor job in Science fak, UM. Fortunately the labs are on Friday and saturday yang tak clash langsung dgn any of my other jobs. Still sometimes, i have to ponteng kerje pagi coz need to go to UM jumpe lecturer regarding my Master which i juz received the offer letter last 2 days. Ni yg wat pening giler nih...x de mase nak bace pasal master. Maybe next 2 months ke im going to quit my job here in Think Plus although agak sayang coz mane nak dpt bos yg bagi kite masuk ofis 9-1 je and biler ade hal, cuti je la skati...

Friends say im workaholic, but i do think 'moneyholic' is the best to describe me...My dad pun pelik aku asyik nak simpan duit je..ade ke die suruh aku bayar road tax and insuran kerete..susah2 je...haha...plan nak pegi tengok along grad dekat manchester next year, tuh yg pulun keje tuh...Kalau tak sempat kumpul banyak, kene jugak la gune duit ayah separuh..huhuhu

Tapi serius, agak banyak gak aku menyimpan sekarang, every month siap buat budget tuh utk belanja, utk savings dll...dlm 2/5 daripada gaji aku aku simpan dalam bentuk insuran ke, asb ke dll...yg lain belanje and byr phone bill yg berlebey-lebey & byr ptptn lagi (wpun ayah bagi duit lagi utk byr bil n ptptn, tp x cukup..shhhh)..huhu...

erm..enuff for today..need to make a few phone calls to some companies to promote the event that we're organizing in Qatar in conjunction of Asia Games in Doha, Qatar this December. Okay la..enuff said....papaiii

It has been almost 6 years since i left SMAKL (jujur sebut name skolah tuh..haha). Tp rase mcm baru sangat je...(start jiwang dah ayat...hoho).. Tp ape yg aku nk bebel sbnrnye in this post is the relationship yg ade dgn ex-schoolmate aku.

From the day we left school until today, x pernah miss kitorg buat reunion every year..(antara kitorg-kitorg la)...bukak pose, hari raye, cuti gi pulau perhentian, mandi kat kanching, cuti gi utp, netball etc... Although x sume dtg ke sume occasions, tp ade gak yg ade inisiatif to join all the activities yg dianjurkan (ayat skema kuar dah plak...huhu)...

Ape yg aku dpt kate dr sume xtvt yg aku join, all my friends change..in a good way...even yg x pernah brape rapat kat sekolah dulu ke atau yg pernah gaduh ke, bile jmpe balik, bley wat lawak same2, gelak same2, mcm x pernah sakit hati je dolu2...(tatau la dlm hati diorg simpan lg tak...yg aku tau dlm hati budak kecik gombak...die simpan...ngade2..hahaha)

Anyway, i would like to thank all my friends especially pnut yg selalu jd leader untuk mengkontek kwn2 bg menjoin xtvt (ko mmg gile kuase), kwn2 lain yg x penah miss utk join xtvt specially amal (serius amal je kot yg x penah miss utk ape2 xtvt...org lain mesti ade miss gak at least once...giler boring la ko amal...haha)...and sume la...mls nk sebut...ade yg lupe sebut kang kecik ati lak...hoho...

To all yg dtg jamuan raye aku every yr sejak dr skolah lg, tq byk...although last yr aku x wat, dtg je la...kwn2 yg konvoi raye2 same...lst yr sgt sronok (ke umah ali n zaim)...this yr buat panggil la lg...huhu...

Kesimpulannye, aku sangat syg kwn2 skolah aku...and really hope that we will always be friend although sume org dah ade hidup masing2....(Dowh..serius aku jiwang...hahaha). Yang kurang2 berminat nak join xtvt kami akibat masalah commitment terhadap bf or gf masing2, skati korg la..mls nk lyn..haha...Sekian terima kasih...
