Homemakers vs. Working Moms: Redefining Roles and Appreciating Each Other The debate surrounding the roles of working moms and homemakers (or, as I prefer to call them, full-time housewives) has been ongoing. It is important to acknowledge that both play crucial roles within the family institution. While I don't deny that the tasks of a homemaker are demanding, exhausting, and often lacking in glamour or excitement, I stand corrected in recognizing that working moms face their own set of challenges too. The office is no playground for many working moms. We struggle, work tirelessly, face criticism from bosses and clients, and also bear significant responsibility for our subordinates. We take care of their well-being, support their career paths, and even contribute to charitable causes. Finding the time to perform solat promptly can be nearly impossible if one is not brave enough to excuse themselves and walk out secara sopan from unnecessary, stressful meetings. Nevertheless, I pr...

Scene 1 Cikgu   : Puan, puan kena cakap Bahasa Malaysia dengan anak puan. Me       : Kenapa cikgu? Cikgu   : Result BM dia sentiasa teruk. Mungkin kalau cakap BM dengan dia boleh bantu sikit. Me       : Cikgu, saya memang cakap BM sebab English saya sendiri pun teruk. Betul, tak tipu. Scene 2 A conversation after UPSR BM paper.... Me     : How was the test? Me son : So so. By the way what is 'jururawat' ibu? Me      : What was your guess? (Biar betul dia ni) Scene 3 Haziq    :  Ibu, there's a MAJOR improvement for my BM result! Me        : (hati berbunga-bunga) Owh ye ke? What did you get? Haziq    : Last time was 'E', now I got a 'D' Me       : (long paused dalam hati 'eh?') Nazurah : Same here mummy, there's an improvement for mi...

I am obviously not the best daughter-in-law one could have. But  I’m the fun one! Hehehe…However, despite my shortcomings, I always held a deep respect for Mama. Your cooking skills were unparalleled, and I could never match your culinary expertise. But I do try my best to light the stove every now and then, attempting to recreate the flavors you so effortlessly created. Mama, I will never forget that moment when your medical test results came out. We didn't share them with anyone else. The world seems upside down, and all I could offer was my unwavering support and heartfelt prayers. It was an incredibly awkward moment when you asked me to bathe you. Little did I know that it would be the last time, as you took your final breath shortly after. I cherish that memory and feel grateful to have been able to care for you in your final moments. That last look you gave me is etched in my memory. As I informed you that I had to return to the office, unable to stay by your side in your h...

Mak, my apologies for expressing this. I never have the intention to break your heart. Mak, You  wonder why don't I buy myself a brand new car….. The 11 year old German stallion is still our pride despite of its age and condition... and the minivan that bapak is driving is still our happy ride. Mak, you were asking why I wasn’t chauffeured driven like my friends.. Honestly mak, I would love too. Who doesn't kan ;p Mak, you were asking why I do not buy designer handbags, wear expensive jewelery, branded clothing and all. I don’t need them mak. I’m happy with my handbags though they are a little outdated. In fact I think I have too many of them already. They may not be Hermes and the fact that I do not have to pay for them indicates that I am blessed with love. Clothes? You know how kedekut-stingy I can be when buying my own attire (but not for the kids) Mak, you were asking why I didn’t upgrade my house. The truth is...

A conversation in the lift today Woman   : Hi Boss Big Boss : Hi, where are you going? Woman  : Training Boss      : Training apa? Training marah orang ka? Woman  : Owh, itu training is best to learn from you. Boss      : This girl never learn anything from me even after 5 years. (while pointing at me) Me         : Who say I don’t? I do. Woman : May be because she has a soft heart Me        : NO, because I learn only the good thing from him. Boss     : I thought I teach you all the good things? Me        : Ya..BUT the bad way. I only consume good things, the good way. (Utter silence) *habislah bonus aku* there goes my bonus.... My Office's Chill Pill

maki sushi is the only maki I am able to consume other maki is truly unacceptable. please save your maki and lets spread the positive vibes peeps! I promise to always look for the good in bad times like a saying, even a dead clock will strikes the correct time twice a day. Translation Malay->English maki            = to abuse maki hamun = insults maki sushi   =sushi cuisine

I stumbled upon my last posting..that was merely 8 months back. Allah has put me to a greater trial subsequently after the posting. I broke down. Fell apart. "..we have wronged our ownself.." al araf (7:23)

25th March 2015 I keep telling myself 'dun sweat the small stuff' or 'Allah will not put one to test beyond what one can bear'. Those are ayat2 penguat jiwa, to thickens my patience, to remind myself how grateful I should be. BUT there are little test in life that tend to tickles my patience. Geli2 sikit je but too many tickles can heighten the temperature too..:p. If Allah swt put me to it, HE will get me through it. InsyaAllah. Happy Belated 24th bithday Huslina. p/s: 24 la sangattt

My instinct was right Saya rasa tak sedap hati .. hence I met up with Nur & Alin that Wednesday to activate the plan to fly to Brunei to visit her She keep sending her progress thru whatpps to update us about her condition Until one day when it was her other half that responded the to us.. She was already unconscious We were too late She left us on 25th Feb 2015, Wednesday, 7:35am Sharifah.. tenanglah kau di sana kawanku You have been loved so much love and I wish I will be remembered by our friend as much as they did to you

Setiap hari ku Mohon agar Kau sentiasa Memberiku ketenangan Dalam hati... Kekuatan Menempuh segala dugaan yang mencabar ini Pasti punya ertinya Engkau beriku harapan Menjawab segala persoalan Hadapi semua dalam tenang Dengan merasa kesyukuran Ku doa Kau selalu Mengawasai gerak-geriku Berkatilah ku perlu rahmat dari Mu Oh Tuhan terangkan hati dalam sanubariku Untuk menempuhi segala hidup penuh cabaran ini Oh Tuhan ku berserah segalanya kepadamu Agar jiwaku tenang dengan bimbingan Mu selalu Ada kalanya ku merasa hidup ini seperti kaca Jikalau tidak bersabar Hancur berderailah akhirnya Tabahkanlah hatiku Melalui semua itu ooh... Kuatkanlah Cekalkanlah diriku Oh Tuhan terangkan hati dalam sanubariku Untuk menempuhi segala hidup penuh cabaran ini Oh Tuhan ku berserah segalanya kepadamu Agar jiwaku tenang dengan bimbingan Mu selalu Curahkanlah nikmat Mu pada hidupku Oh Tuhan terangkan hati dalam sanubariku Untuk menempuhi segala hidup penuh cabaran ini Oh Tuhan ku bers...

Whoa.. this is one of the longest hiatus ever. My last posting was way back in June 2013. And basically that was the time where I was struggling with work, chased by datelines & the all evil monsters in projects *Ok, ok Im exaggerating there* My days were very stressful,  nights were filled with teleconferences,  other nights with nightmares, some nights with code deployment the last till morning then come some server activities and weekends become like any other weekdays I became a zombie I don't know why but at that point of time, it was as if the project (project's name can't be disclosed due to security reason..hehehehe)is the most important thing. Astagfirullah! Like it's the most important to the moon & back, the entire universe and most important di 7 petala langit (the Bahasa Malaysia in intentionally done) By end of the year, once we have reached more than 90% rollout completion, things were a bit quiet..but this is one of my 2013 hig...

I wonder who actually drop by and read my blog. I'm sure there are even readers who doesn't even know about this makcik, and yet still kill time by reading my postings. I miss writing. *sigh* I miss doing other things than work. Have been bogged down with nothing but work, work and work. Not that I hate it but I just wish that I have more time for God swt, family and me. Mekah, debt-less, car, housewife... Nice~ Argh... Dream on. Lets get back to work. Who is going to get me that pandora? And why the heck do I want that pandora so much when I have something better on my wrist? *Sendiri jawab*

Life is wonderful. A blessing indeed. Alhamdulillah. Clock is ticking too fast. I hardly have the time to write. Life at work is simply making me out of this world. I miss the moment where I could sleep at night without having nightmares related to office. (Normal kah aku?) I miss the time where I could perform prayers peacefully... A solat without having to rush in between meeting. I miss the time where I don't have to dread myself every morning to the 'war zone', I miss the time where everyone work together instead of for the sake of talking and updating (kerja lah woi!, stop using statement 'update at my level instead of working level', I have no issue to dirty my hand, so u should too. I miss the time where my kids could greet me when I arrived from office (they'd already asleep when I returned' I have been advised to learn a total shutdown once in a while, at least a day or two in order to re-charge my system. There have been signs that my body has al...

In time like this When times are hard I turn to my little sweethearts When days are low, the sadness I'm trying to throw When I dont get a smile in return, my heart feels like it is burnt In time like this When there's no one to turn to To Allah swt I place my prayers To help me to go through another obstacles in life In time like this When I hardly see the ray of light Because of the stormy weather outside I know there is still hope In time like this When it is possible to cry river of tears When people are trying to make sense out of the nonsense When fault finding is at it's best I promise I wont break In time like this I promise to change I promise to work hard I beg forgiveness from everyone (please forgive me... for every hardship and sadness that I have caused In time like this I count my blessings To even the small unthinkable things That bring tremendous happiness in life Thank you Allah swt p/s: Gambar tiada kena mengena with posting, hihihi...

Blog collecting webcob (again).... God swt has been answering my prayers, alhamdulillah BUT, I havent been a good servant, a good girl, a good wife, a good mum, a good daughter. I have been put to test, again :-( Please bear with me everyone... Especially to other half, mum, dad, kids...help me thru this Need all the support to keep my sanity. (Wah, sound so serious ni. Don't bother to find out. I will reveal in upcoming post if time permits..jeng! jeng! jeng!)

Terima kasih Allah untuk segalanya.. Note : Puan Moinah Jalil, thank you very much for the fruitful training. It was such an interesting one. I will look for the "Language of Love"..<3 <3

Life is filled with peculiar beginnings that eventually transform into everyday norms. Take, for instance, the first two decades of my life, where without fail, I would always be by my mother's side during the morning of Hari Raya. However, as I entered marriage life, things began to change. Despite my parents and in-laws residing just a 15-minute drive away from each other, the impact was significant during the first time. I found myself crying uncontrollably in the surau near my in-laws' place before the Eid prayers on that inaugural Raya morning without Mak. As time flew by, this absence became a routine. I have slowly adapted to not spending time with mak during Raya mornings, and Mak, too, seemed to have forgotten what it felt like to have me by her side. I am grateful that Mak has others to accompany her to the mosque, such as my sister-in-law and nieces. I am thankful that I still have the opportunity to join the annual Raya visit routine with the Hosnih clan. However, t...

Aidilfitri...datang lagi Day 11th of Ramadhan (alhamdulillah)..the raya preparation begins for some. I've decided it'll be more for the kids this round.  After sahur bibik pointed out to me 'dik, semua orang ada benda baru untuk hari raya, adik enggak punya apa?'.. I know she wasn't referring to the Baju raya (coz ours has arrived all the way from Jakarta!) but she must be referring to my brother's, mum's  new sofa, new furniture, house repaint, additional units of air conditioned etc... I wanted to respond to her but I realize that it wasn't necessary. I am just grateful that I still can afford to 'support' my commitments. Cukuplah... I don't have to sweat the small stuff, I don't intend to have open house pun..hihihi (so jangan tanya ye kawan2) Not in 3 years time agaknya. I have prioritize things and even the spoilt staircase fix (wooden panel badly damaged by termites attack) is not in my list. Nanti lah dulu.. Wait. I so...

Owh... How I miss you I just miss Having another heart beat inside of me Another soul accompanying me When I'm having sleepless night Talking to you my little sweethearts I just miss Having tiny little one in my arms I pledge to keep them safe from harm The sweet smell of their ears Which always bring me to tears I just miss Having my babies around me As they have now grown up Flawlessly cheer my day My pillar of strength they are In their very own way I am grateful to you the Almighty For blessing me with these wonderful babies Every night and day I pray For You to protect my babies Bless them, Ya Allah.. Bless them all the way Amin.
