Redha~
i believe some of u have already heard about the job offer (ada yg tahu ntah dari mane...). yes, i did get the job @TTSH. but i declined it, just few hours ago, after i got to know that the job requires me to wear a uniform; no tudungs allowed ("as it is not part of the uniform, bla bla.."),

ceh. when i asked them why was i not informed of this during the interview, the person replied: "..bcos we do not want to reduce your chance of securing the job...".

O.o" (i'm pretty sure Liyana would go: "what the....." ;p)

and the way they put it (" u can still wear your tudung with your casual clothes. when u want to go home, u can change into ur casual clothes and wear your tudung...") sounded as if they were treating hijab as something petty which you can wear on and off.

wah lau~ that sure hurts ALOT. sedih sangat...


='(

my hijab is more, way more than just a piece of cloth. it is my identity as a Muslimah. Been wearing it since i was a kid. it makes me feel safe and protected.

n suddenly here comes someone who made it sound as if discarding my hijab for the job is no big deal ( "the other employees are not concerned about this...").

banjir beb tadi~ thanks Nadiah for all the help, support and encouragement. *huGs tight* n Huda, for the message : "Tkyah ambil. Allah bersama org2 yg benar, terimalah ujian ini dengan redha, ada hikmahnya. btw try to appeal k."

i explained to the person in charge of the uniform that the reason i decline it is because they didn't inform me about this earlier, etc. n she replied with an "ok lor...".

#&%*^&!@*$#





>>haha. eksyen je signs tu.

takpelah Khadijah. redha, tak payah sedih2. Allah itu ar-Razzaq, Maha Pemberi Rezeki. Jika kita yakin dan tawakkal kepada Allah setelah usaha, kalau dapat, kita tidak akan merasa bangga, dan kalau tidak, kita tak perlu merasa kecewa :)

I can see that Mom was very happy after she received the news about the my job offer the other day. Almost didn't have the heart to break this news to her. Ayah yang bilang Mak tadi. Ayah n 3rd sister were the ones angry at TTSH. 3rd sister advised me to complain to CASE for keeping the info from me, and so as to prevent this happening to future Muslim Hijabi applicants. but somehow i don't see the need for it. takpelah... tak suka kecoh2...

anw, Mom was saying: "kalau lepas ni cari kerja tak dapat2 jugak, pergilah sambung Uni...lepas tu kalau nak sambung blaja agama teruskanlah, at least dah ada Degree dlm genggaman..."

n Mom already knew that i do not wish to pursue my academic studies at the local Us. orang tak minat lah mak... 4 tahun pulak tu. 3 thn kat poly je rasa mcm lega gitu dah habes. ni 4 thn kat local U? how am i going to endure it???

tak tahulah pada masa akan datang kalau hati orang ni berubah. tapi orang memang lebih cenderung nak lanjutkan pelajaran dalam bidang ukhrawi. Kuliyyah Lughah. dr dulu lg kuliyyah tulah yang orang minat giller. kalau tak dapat Kuliyyah Lughah, Usuluddin atau Syari'ah pun jadilah. asalkan orang dapat mendalami ilmu agama. kalau tak kan mak, mesti bila dah besar2 nnt orang rasa terkilan sangat... terasa sangat diri ni kurang dari pelbagai segi. betapa ceteknya ilmu di dada ini... dan lagi satu: orang teringin juga nak musafir ke negeri lain....

.....
ok enough. moving on to the less emotional posts (hehe):

Had lovely post-poly days starting with:


  • picnic @ East Coast with my beloved family (ada KFC, pizza, nasi lemak, etc etc. alhamdulillah!) ;
  • then simply relaxing at home;
  • trip to Ghufran then Bayaan Bookstore with Nad n Diyana (bought 2 books!);
  • started teaching my dearest nephew n niece Iqra';
  • hanged out@ Vivocity with Ata, Bedah, Mushi n Yam (bought lotsa chocolates..hee~);
  • brought Nad on a TP tour (^-^);
  • settling some stuffs @as-Syafa'ah;
  • teaching my cute students @as-Syafa'ah;
  • met the generous Afghanistan (family restaurant) bro who was super willing to sponsor food for the Qur'an Camp organised by IMPIAN-Pergas;
  • visited sis Fiza at her WESSC n played with the adorable Yana;
  • dropped over Saff Centre to visit my Nad, and had a really great time playing the Chuzzle game with her (Oh Nad! i'm certainly looking forward to more visits, now that i'm not working. hehe.. BESTnye game tu! n BESTnye orang yang temankan kte main game tu n buatkan Melo (;p) sekali~)

n of course me looking forward to meet up with my dearie Junie ^_~

    [ghamirah]
    thanks sis! :) it's more heartwrenching coz they actually KEPT IT from me. so very NOT the FAIR, let alone being HONEST. kalau bilang siang2 tu takpelah, at least i can decide faster, n won't have to reject a part-time job offer by a friend...

    btw sis, i lovelovelove your office laa~ =D suker~

    [ruqa]
    apsl mcm lain je bunyi "kau" kali ni? =P haha.

    tu ah. me was saying to my sis: kalau dpt keje ngan company Mid East kan bagus... mana tau dorang sponsor kte gi Dubai ke Oman ke Qatar ke... weE~ kalu nak migrate bilang eh. maybe i'll consider it gak. ;)

    amek degree eh sis? haizzzzzzzzzzz... itu bab ade kureng siket uh. 4 thn beb, 4 thn. pastu most likely gue dah 25 thn. n i still wish to pursue my passion in ukhrawi subjects, NOT bcoz i don't want to get out of my comfort zone, but coz of the burning passion. it's sizzling beb... kalau tak pursue sampai ke tua (kalu umur panjang uh) nnt gue terkilan.... boOhuhu...

    biar orang mengappreciate kita atas ilmu DAN juga cara pemakaian kita yang menutup 'aurat (bukan sekadar tutup kepala... =D).


    to the three of you: *muacksS*
