huh? dabes?
28 Muharram 1428H

suddenly it's o.v.e.r.

so here i am, in the ASc comp lab, waiting for my dear Fatimah nie, to finish preparing for her MP poster presentation. had mine yesterday. expected it to be something formal n nerve-wrecking. but eventually it turned out to be biase-biase je... the memorable part was the photo-taking sessionS with fellow coursemates :)

all the papers were manageable, hamdan lillah. that is, except for the last paper which ended abt an hour ago. insyaAllah boleh pass ah, but dun think i can score. hmMpH.

takpe. relax. think ahead. ur post-poly planS, remember? aha! *smiles*

btw, the interview last Monday went well, alhamdulillah. not-so-formal, n i found myself very relaxed :)

the other applicant n me were brought on a tour around the workplace. coOL~
me was in a super good mood till the end of the day (unlike the sad day before).

made fren with the other applicant, this Indian lady. very nice person, i don't mind if she gets the job instead of me. (haha. if i tell this to my family members, dorang mesti kata me tebiat, like how Junie exclaimed when i told her abt it. pelik sgt ke saya ni?)

then treated myself to a Soya Bean ice-cream @ Mr. Bean. healthy, delicious and refreshing!
*more smiles* i remember the first time i tried the ice cream, when Kak Saqinah suapkan pat hospital time orang sakit tu... rindu pulak kat kak Saqinah. dia punya kemerepekan & kegerekan menghiburkan sgt! ^-^

then it sooo happened that the cabin of the train i boarded afterwards was the one advertising this Original Source products made of...... R.O.S.E!! roses on my right, roses on my left. pictures of beautiful, blooming red roses pasted on the windows, on the floor. beautiful roses everywhere~ i almost couldn't stop staring in delight at the floor covered in (pictures of) rose bouquets. *wider smiles*

that's me. (agaknya memang saya ni pelik kot?)

.......
thanks for the advanced, on-the-dot, and belated birthday wishes. appreciate all ur du'as. baarakallaahu feekum.

my 20th Birthday turned out to be just like any other day, even worse, maybe.

started off with teaching the budak-budak yg cekik darah @ As-Syafa'ah. there's this one boy, who, despite his tiny built, has LOADs of vulgarities stored inside. kept condemning the girls at the back of the class, throwing whiteboard dusters (there were 3) n books at them! O.o"
like, whoa!! anak orang woi~ i was very worried n disturbed everytime he uttered those R21 words. some of the girls seem shocked. rasa mcm nk staple mulut dia.

the last time i threatened to bring him to the Mudirah's office (according to the classmates, he's scared of the Mudirah), he threatened to commit suicide, dangling one of his small legs outside the window. to cut a loooong (not to mention complicated n dramatic) story short, the Mudirah eventually came to the class n asked him to apologise to me, n promise that he won't repeat those naughty acts again (such as snatching my markers, crawling under my table, throwing other students' bags around, etc.). he did as told, n of course, as expected, empty promises those were. nk cakap orang marah dia, tak jugak. i hardly raise my voice at him. psl selalu kan orang kata, kalau nasihat lembut2, cakap baik2, lebih "mujarab". tapi budak ni tak tau dr species apa. -_-"

ni baru mengajar pat masjid, part-time.
enough. i don't see myself becoming a full-time teacher. ajar budak 10 yrs old n below ok kot. (like my p3 students n my adorable tutees who thought i'm "15/16/17" years old =P n when they got to know that i'm 20, went: "waaaah. dah kene kahwin tau!" lol)

but older than that: NO. terima kasih jelah ye :)

there happened to be a health screening at the mosque afterwards. Ironically, my blood pressure was low (pelik #3).

WARNING: kalau tgh mengandung, atau nak mengandung, baik jgn ajar budak2 ni. sungguh. ada seorang ustazah tu bilang saya, dia dulu cuba untuk hamil tapi tak hamil2. bila dia stop mengajar (ambil cuti, pasal stress sgt mengajar), baru disahkan hamil. iye saye, takdir di dalam kekuasaan ALLAH, tapi sbg manusia, kita pun mesti berusaha n mengambil langkah2 yg sepatutnya. kan? :)

ish. panjangnye crite. tu pun belum habis lagi ni:

then, after the encounters with the kids, at home, had to continue with some chores n revise for term test. had to forgo the shopping trip with 1st sister. takpelah. sekarang ni dah free insyaAllah boleh gi jalan2 k Khadijah? :)

Special thanks to Nurnadiah Nasir n Ridzwan Omar for the sweet surprise on my birthday eve. so simple, yet so touching n definitely memorable. on the rooftop, with the sun setting at the back... ;)

My Nad, how can i ever forget that cute white lie? Haha ;p

    [Nadiah] a'ah. lain kali buatlah lagi ye.... insyaAllah this time round i'll be more alert ;p

    as i told u today (while jalan2 pat Arab Street ;)), the boy is in p5. repeat student, according to his peers. i got to know from the Mudirah that his parents are already in their 50s n 60s, n his other siblings are married n staying elsewhere.

    tu uh. kesian jugak tengok dia. mcm tersisih pun ada. ramai sgt tak suka dia. ada pula ajuk2 dia.
    n i do agree with u that i think he found the wrong source of attention seeking techniques.

    yg kesian jugak are his classmates who are too distracted n couldn't pay attention to the lesson. Khad pun tak dapat nak ajar banyak coz masa byk jugak terbuang nasihatkan budak kocik nu. sometimes i just decide to ignore him, n ask the rest to ignore him as well.

    tu pun tak jalan sgt... but he's ok with me. at least he never hit or say bad things to me, like how he did to the other girls.

    pening lah Nad~ nak pekik buat apa kan? even if i do, buat sakit tekak je, n my voice pun bukannye kuat mana. tenggelam punya...

    hmm~

    wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullah my dear~

    i only teach there on weekends =) started off as a substitute teacher, but then dapat offer to continue, so alhamdulillah =)

    it's really nice getting to share whatever little knowledge that i have with those kids. esp when u see their eyes locked at u when u teach, trying to impress u by volunteering to answer questions after questions (one boy even closed his eyes while trying to concentrate on answering my question -cute sangat sangat! ^-^)showing great enthusiasm in the deen, wanting to know more about Rasulullah sollu 'alaihi wasallam.... aaah~ sayang lah kat dorang! =D

    stress pun ada gak. biasalah kan... tak lari dr ujian.. =)

    ouh. thanks alot sis for ur words of encouragement n well wishes! tulah, for now trying to secure a good job, n at the same time planning for my future...

    another hmmm~

    all the very BEST to my dear sis ni jugak ye! =D *huGs*
