This entry is dedicated to a dear friend of mine who got engaged to the luckiest man on a earth (cliche haha), bukan senang nak menawan hati keturunan berdaulat weih ;).
THE HAPPY ENDING...INSHA ALLAH
It's been two years since we last saw each other but we keep track through YM and lately through friendster. It was barely five, six months ago that she told me she was seeing someone, and she met him in a short course that they both attended. And just three weeks ago they decided to get engaged. Certainly 'time' doesn't really matter, what matters most is ketulusan hati bak kata abangku yang bernama Anuar itu (sempat lagi perasan) :P .
There were obstacles definitely...relationship is perhaps sweeter when it is put to test and they learn more about one another and those challenges strengthen the bond between them. Today, they are happily engaged and planning to tie the 'legal' knot somewhere in the middle of 2008.
R*j*, I just want you to know that I am very happy for you and I hope you will be blessed with endless happiness throughout this life and hereafter.

THE IMPERFECT TALE (of mine)
I don't really like weddings and ceremonies related to them! Please don't be offended. I dislike weddings but I still attend them (so please invite me - ayat cam desperate la plak). I just hate myself because I am to a certain extent an introvert person and I, at times, just do not know how to socialize (darn, you are embarrassing educators around the world!) outside my classroom and outside my college. Well, I definitely have improved a lot since I attended University, but still aiyak, when I see unfamiliar faces, I become kekok and try very hard to remain composed and relaxed. Luckily we were taught Intro to Drama in U** hahaha.
Berbalik ke cerita asal...I was invited by my friend to attend her engagement. I asked her at what time will it start, and she told me 'after zuhr'. So I presume after zuhr means around 2pm and txt-ed her telling that I shall arrive around that time. The last time I went to her house was two years ago when I fetched her to attend a kenduri in S.B. Today, I used a different route to go to her house because my aunty told me that this is the better and faster way. So I followed her advice and used that route, unfortunately I didn't know where does the road lead to so I had to stop at two gas station to ask for direction.
When I finally saw the rooftop of her house, I was relieved. But it didn't last for long. I saw many cars parked at her porch, and my head was telling me that the ceremony has already started. My legs refused to inch forward but my heart kept on reminding me that she's a good friend of mine and a person who is very close to my heart. So, I walked courageously inside and saw many many people enjoying food which was served by the host. Adoi...lagi bertambah tebal muka aku!!! Luckily her uncle was there and invited us in.
Aku pun tercari2 la kawan aku yang sorang ni and when I had finally found her, I felt extremely relieved!!! She told me "semua dah selesai" but she knew I was lost earlier hahaha...and she then invited us for the makan2 session. Sebenarnya aku malu tahap cipan rainbow kaler, sampai at first I didn't feel like eating, tapi nanti kang cam tak baik and tak respect tuan rumah plak, so aku pun dengan muka tembok konkrit gi makan bertemankan adek aku.
I'm lucky that R*j* made me feel so comfortable and at ease even though I arrived late. She is still as warm and as bubbly as before. Time doesn't change this friend of mine, and if it does, the change is very subtle and only towards positivity.
A prayer for you always my dear friend

hullo... been a long time tak menyapa...
looking at the new born's pic made me realize how much they are welcomed in this world, making the world brighter and happier, and myself a bit older.
about weddings, engagements, kenduris and everything yg sama waktu dgnnya, yup, quite hard to adapt to it when ur a teacher and introvert at the same time.
i know that, coz as a teacher when i tried to adapt to certain situation, i turned out mingling like a makcik, and later on i felt silly and malu. ha ha ha.
in short, we are who we are... be comfortable in out own skin.
pjg lebar plak komen...
