One peaceful morning, cruising thru AKLEH on the way to work , other half begin the conversation by saying; Man :You can only have one.. so which one is it? Woman :huh? What exactly are you referring to? Man :isk, berlakon pulak…, DSLR ke LV? Woman :isk, I main-main saja la… (*berbunga-bunga dalam hati*-he was reading my blog, thanks to iPhone!) Man :Offer for limited period saja nih, make up your mind.. Woman :Dua-dua tak buleh? Man :K. H. E* (kepala hotak engkau) This is very tempting nih! I cant make up my mind, (…both are pricey!! ) Meantime….. My office babies (servers) are behaving so well (alhamdulillah) All systems/applications under my custodian are under control (I like!) UAT date shifted, No big projects assigned (yet) No papers or proposal to be written (bahagia nye!!) No mat salleh chasing for datelines.. No vendors chasing for payments No long hours meeting (paling best!) So, I took the opportunity to do some research (plus online window shopping?- th...

Sempena PPMSI, Artikel ini ditulis dalam bahasa Malaysia. Saya sangat menghormati Bahasa Malaysia (dan Bahasa Inggeris saya penuh kecacatan) tapi sedikit kecewa apabila PPMSI akan dimansuhkan. Alhamdulillah, hanya itu kalam Allah yang saya mampu ucapkan setiap kali menyambut kelahiran anak-anak saya. SubhanaAllah, sangat sempurna ciptaan Allah ini, dalam hati asyik terucap “masih sayang Allah pada aku walaupun dosaku tak tertanggung”. Percayalah..seperti yang mak selalu cakap “bersalin seperti pertarungan antara hidup atau mati”. Ingin saya berkongsi pengalaman sedikit di sini. Kandungan pertama Keguguran sewaktu usianya hampir 12 minggu..Saya tumpah darah beberapa hari selepas D&C dibuat.. Tiada kesakitan tetapi trauma dengan jumlah darah. Allah lebih menyayangi nya.. Mungkin ayah & ibu nya belum bersedia pada waktu itu. Muhammad Haziq Nazri Kesakitan sewaktu proses kelahiran memang agak sukar digambarkan. Setiap satu proses yang saya tempuhi sangat berbeza. Muhammad Haziq lah...

I know I made the right decision when I turned down MARA's offer for my degree in Aussie (even though masa tu teringin yg amat sangat nak pergi oversea!). Turn out that during my matriculation in UUM up north pun I was homesick, menangis tahap gaban. But the best part I had someone to share it with, my singing mate, Alin!!! (We will be in KL almost every weekend and will take whatever mode of transportation available at that point of time; bus, flight or train). I always have this fear of being away too long from my family esp mak. (Though I'm the youngest, you'd barely see me showing my affectionate towards her) As I grew older and become a mother, another virus stricken me, fear of being away from my kiddies. In the recent trip to Redang, Hazim had to stay with atuk,nenek & bibik (since they say it'll be too 'heaty' for babies). So with heavy heart, it was the first time that I left my child in my 8th year career of being a mother(Ibu will make it up to yo...

My dear darling Nana, Bottled to be pickle, don’t dignify them with any answers or action apart from silence, pray for them instead But while we all can do this, there are those who are still bent on hurting those from whom they received only kindness. Let them not dictate and control how you feel, if you do, then effectively they do have control over you. P/S : Yeah, I got this. Thanks babe, LOVE YOU!

I was writing a cheque when a collegue approach me and ask "Bayar ape tu?", I responded "Stemlife.." "Ape stem?" "Stemlife, cord blood bank, cakap melayu darah tali pusat" "Huh!Apa pusat?" I signup for this while giving birth to Nazurah in 2007. It has yet to be commercialised during Haziq birth in 2001 and Hazim came too soon before we are able to make the arrangement. My hubby consulted Dato' Dr Maamor of Persatuan Pengguna Islam (PPMI)before signing up and Dato' has given an encouraging answer. Cord blood is collected from the umbilical cord (tali pusat) immediately after the birth of the baby and after the cord has been clamped out. This blood is routinely discarded and collecting it does not alter normal birthing procedures. The collection is painless and normally performed by the doctor. The blood is an budant and valuable source of stem cells which are genetically unique to our baby and family. It is an alternative source...

Stumbled upon this article in Harsa's blog (Contributed by Sister Shoruoq). It may be a lengthy & very wordy but truly inspiring and well said. Terima kasih Harsa! Since I reverted to Islam I’ve often done tons of research to know how to become the best wife I possibly can Inshaállah. I’ve noticed it’s very easy to find compiled lists of what a wife should and shouldn’t do but also noticed how hard it is to find that list for brothers. Why does everyone concentrate on the wife? Wife must obey the husband, wife should look pretty for husband, wife must keep a clean home, blah blah blah the list goes on. I’m not saying that the list isn’t in any way wrong because I try my best to practice those duties as a wife but I think “some” brothers also should remember they have duties more than just bringing in the money. So as to a few requests I’ve gotten from sisters here is a list I was able to compile from two articles written by scholars. “Among His signs is the fact that he has cre...

I notice that I am posting more than I used to. I think I write more when I’m stressed. I am stressed over this one new server!!!! My team and I has been struggling over a server that does not perform as it is supposed to be..this particular machine also has causes us to come over the weekend, stayed back late, being questioned & pizza for dinner with the mat salleh bosses; I seriously need another maternity leave! Call engineers? sudah, hardware diagnostic, done change the NIC card? noted bare the box strip naked, leaving only the OS and my calculator application, took out the security & OS hardening, checked! simulate the patches, buat ghost, cloning (clowning?), perform millions of testing, but still end up in despair…..waaaaaa....! It has been a month now..and the interim replacement box which is just a mr humble low end hardware is able to process the application on average of 0.0001 seconds! Morale of the story… Just because you are driving a bimmer, don’t ever think tha...

Posting by Mr/Miss Anynoumous telah menyedarkan saya... thus I refer back to my note.."seek first to understand". This value is taken from the 7 habits of highly effective people..its one of the strategy to becoming a content person.. In short it implies that you become more interested in understanding others and less in having people to understand you. This also means that if you want quality, fulfilling communication that is nourishing to you & others, understanding others must come first. Rule is simple.. you may not change others..but you may change yourself to accept others. But the bestest thing that I learn from my kids today.. choose being kind instead of being right.

An Anynomous left this comments for my "You talk big, I talk, talk" post; ".. hehehe life is so like that..sometime kita salah interpred wut people trying to say for those who has set her mind to be negative the oputcome are to be negative.... i thot u nie kinda grrl yg org takleh lebih dari u kot..believe me u did have anything.kete besar,melancong luar negeri,jam rolex,beg gucci,rumah besar,very outstanding n good hubby,panerai, crying to the tree, lagi apa.. i thot kan the title should be ' YOU TALK BIG ,I TALK EVEN BIGGER' .." He or she must be a perfect example. I must say I have to agree with his/her comments. This is especially the assessment is made based on the article that I wrote. I am living with people who is 'lebey' than me and I know I can never be in their league. Despite this, I still thankful and I am a very fortunate person, truly blessed with everything. Alhamdulillah..However, I am sorry, an apology from me if my innertalk (or wh...

I swear I almost swipe the only credit card I have to a nice, decent LV... (Phuh! I had to reminisce the visit to the needy shelter to snap out of it)..Told myself, isk membazir..imagine it is equivalant to bibik-the-maid's 10 months salary! membazir!membazir! In relates to this, I receive my MAKNA (Majlis Kanser Negara) booklet today. I dont mean to brag, but I have been donating thru monthly deduction for more than 7 years now. The contribution is not that big, but I was touched when a MAKNA representative approached me last year and said "You may think that your contibution is little but you can never imagine how it has changed many life, we thank you for your support and we hope that you will continue to help us to help others. We valued every single cents of your contribution Cik Huslina". For a moment it feels good to give. I'm calling upon family and friends not to get carried away in this mega sale season. Remember the needy, the unfortunate and the current g...

Note: RLTV 15-This post may cause sensitvity to some readers. Penuh emosi nih. Upon returning from an island gateaway, mak approach me and whispered; "2 makcik awak cakap anak dia tunjuk internet yg nana ada post gambar girfren hubby awak & tulis merayu pada pompuan tu supaya jangan kacau rumahtangga awak sebab awak ada anak".. "bibik waida kata laki awak ada girlfren masa dia kat singapore".. (aduh!! sapa la yang tak reti baca blog nih...)so to clear the air, I showed mak litalana's picture and I just had to write this.. My reply to my 2 makcik, mazzuin & those involve as a mega CNN is simple;- -No, that is not Nazri's girlfren; but I'd be honoured should you interested to know how she is connected to us -Please tell me which in which para in my blog that I have 'my rayuan' to perempuan itu (open to other readers also, he he...) -Where on earth la bibik waida come to a conclusion that hubby had a girlfren when he was in Singapore? (shar...

There was a break in at my house recently.. The moment I stepped into the house I thought I've lost everything.. alhamdulillah, only hubby Tag's collection were missing..(my 12 year old Tag still intact..phewww..) I have always ask myself how can this people have the heart or the guts to commit crime.I was hostaged with a doctor & another clinic assistance when working at a relative's dental clinic while waiting for my SPM result. I remember I almost pee in my pants when the robbers put me at a gun point. When I was in Ampang, our new MPV and waja was smashed badly by 7 man on motorbike (mat rempit?). There were also series of snatch theft but there was no more reported crime on our lane after the datuk; top man frm the country police force move opposite my house! This is bad people..in which I have never believe their existense until I experience it myself. What could be possibly force them to do it? (I used to think of Zorro,who robbed the wealthy to help the needy..)...

I have this ‘pantang’ against those who like to “talk big”.. my mother always disapprove this one attitude in me.. (She is more like “ let other people have glory at times..~ to me she let it happen ALL the times) So I tried my best not to show my disagreement by not saying the thing I REALLY wanted to say.. (This is especially to elderly) Woman 1: Your house is ok, but I’ll never get myself committed to a long term loan and I’d prefer to purchase a house in cash Nana : Of course you do, you kan banyak duit (Inner voice: Is that why you are still renting one?) Woman 1: Hello auntie, we stay in Damansara, Ampang is lame.. Nana : Auntie cant afford one dear, rumah situ mahal (Inner voice: First: it’s kota damansara aka sg buloh not Damansara heights, Second: my house is more expensive than yours, Third :you don’t even own the house) Woman 1: *checking out the wnq5200* We never set our eye on german made cars, we prefer Italian Nana : *just smile* (Inner voice: just because you own neith...

I found myself standing speechless when the green on my back patio was chopped off.. gondol! Today at the office toilet, I wipe my tears off and told myself "It's a small stuff!" Above pics: other people's green and..can you spot the 'gondol' house? p/s: tapi apasal sedih lagi lagi eek?

The above title written by Richard Carlson somehow has influence my day to day. It’s a book that thought you how to keep from letting the little things in life that drive you crazy. This is especially for those who is in the midst of incredibly hurried, stress-filled life (am I included?). We were guided how to enjoy the present moment, let others have glory at times and lower our tolerance to stress. We were told to write down our most stubborn positions and learn to “soften” them, to trust our intuitions and live each day as if it might be our last (like how the Muslims were taught). My problem is, how do I categorize the “small stuff” ? Some guide for readers (esp female) out there on my definition of “small stuff”:- a. When the Waja has a dented on it’s side? It’s a small stuff When the bimmer has a hairline scratch? It’s NOT a small stuff b. When the kids accidentally drop your Rolex ? It’s a small stuff When the kids accidentally drop his Panerai on the wooden panel? It’s NOT a s...

2nd June 2009..Mark the 12th year annivesary of my service with the bank. I remember 12 years ago, on my first day of work ..I walk into the department in my innocent look, clad in baju kurung with the wind brushing through my long hair, (phuh! sure an eye-catcher punyer lar, he he..!!!) It was the moment that I feel like an adult aka someone important because my service will be used by one of the top financial instituition in the country. My first impression when I set my foot in the IT department was "Mak aii!! tak ada sorang pun yg hensem ker? everyone looks like a computer geek" ..and that was the moment a lady stood up and said "wei guys, continue your work, she is enggaged lar.. no longer available"..what a turn off (she told me she recognized that I'm hooked by looking at the ring) Time passess by..from being the youngest in the dept, I have now become one of the senior (Kak Nana!)..One may ask "Your 12th year? why lar? You need to make a move..ther...

I left the b-pump at home and my blouse is already wet (thanks to the jacket!) p/s: breastfeeding is AWESOME!!!

My mother, I live in her dream. Being the only daughter of four who has never attended formal education makes her personality totally different from her siblings. Yes, she didn’t attend school like the rest of her sisters but with her own will, she can read & write. Most of all, she has successfully raised her 4 children! Not a single trait from my mother genetically in me.. (This includes both physiological and physical he he..) I remember how my mother would look up to the “rich” relative and will isolate herself from them in any gathering. Her common statement would be something like “Oh tak boleh, dia org itu orang kaya, Nana tak boleh jadi macam tu..” so I grew up with a resolution that I would prove her wrong. I live and become who I am today because of her prayers. I’d remember she dreamt of her children wearing office attire (“kerja opis” )and driving cars as she didn’t put such a high expectation on her children..(oh mak!). When I grew up, her definition of “rich-people-s...

There have been pouring question from family & friends on the new place... A common one would be "..best tak duduk situ?.." Well my honest reply "Best, TAPI...in comparison to the Ampang house, ..it doesnt have an auto-gate ..the 4 toilets way too small, toilet seat & the sinks look cheap :( ..it does not equipped with solar heater, centralised water heater & copper plumbing thruout the house ..the family hall at top floor can only fit the 2 1/2 seater (ampang top hall can fit 1+2+3 bulky sofa!) ..there is less than "sekangkang kera" land to plant my favourite pearl grass ..definetly no room for my koi fish pond ..the ampang master bedroom is bigger ..it doesnt have a storeroom to house the eye-sore stuff! ..it doesnt have a room on the same level with the living hall, causing inconvenience for the elderly to perform solat ..there's too many unecessary pillars ..the road & the porch land is slanting, too 'senget' & no room organi...
