Xpression...

Yesterday meeting went well... Alhamdulillah. But my SV want me to speed up more. He told me that my structure writing was perfect but I need to write more and not just 3 pages per week. Aiyyoo... The truth is, I spent a lot of times to create a good structural writing with less grammatical errors as I'm not really good at English. I can write more pages but I'm not sure how good can it be....

Sometimes I'm wondering, how come I score high marks in ielts? The same marks as Ms X used to get. She's damn fluent in English and was graduate with first class hons in US. The moment she starts to speak I hardly pick up as she talks very fast with some 'weird' accents. Haha- *Blame me* I envy her. Yes I do. And I envy those people who can speak and write fluently.

Anyways, I'm grateful that Allah has given me this chance to pursue my study in oversea. Something that I always dream of. With this opportunity, I'm going to give my best not only to gain PhD but also to master my English.

Language is not something easy to learn. You have to read, listen and speak everyday. The best way is to communicate with other people. You'll need a lot of time. But, people say, "practice makes perfect". That's why I change my normal bahasa writing to english writing in order to learn not to show off my weaknesses. But then, I started to lose my regular friends in this bloggie world... Eermm is it because of my bad english or people are just not interested in english reading? No offense-

Whatever it is I'll keep on writing and I hope that one day somebody who have good command in English will came across my blog to support me, to give good comments and encouragement and be one of my sincere friends. And I pray to Allah some day all my hard works will be paid.

For those, who are still visiting and reading my 'two cents of writing' thank you. I welcome you. It doesn't matter if I don't have many followers because all I need is just a friend! Sincere ones!

Nurul Syuhadah Pre Wed Video

Good morning everyone! How was your weekend? Anything nice? Hopefully everyone is enjoying their weekend. I wish my weekend is longer and and and.. I don't have to meet my SV every Monday! *sigh...@sigh* because it makes my weekend stressful especially when I noticed that my progress was SLOW for the week.... *sigh again@sigh*

Five hours more till I meet my SV but still have time to blogging...hehe... Macam habibi cakap, "Buat apa takut jumpa SV. Bukan nak jumpa hari ini aje tapi setiap hari Isnin selama 3 tahun! Itupun kalau tak extend!" Haha.... This is what we call a motivation of the day. Adat lah tu kalau sekali sekala kena marah, kena tegur, kena puji...dah namanya pun student kan? Dulu masa ko mengajar student pun ada juga time marah-marah, membebel, memberi nasihat, semangat, pujian and etc kan? So, sekarang turn ko pula la rasa apa yang pernah student ko rasa! Itulah putaran dunia. As most people always say, "what you give you get back!" So make sure you give good things to others if you want good things in return.

Okay, enough of this crap!@diam

I just watched this pre-wedding video by CST production for Nurul Syuhada's wedding! Nice ones! They used stop motion technique. So more than 3000 pictures were taken in order to create this wonderful video. I like it very much. Terus berangan nak buat video ala-ala gini even though my wedding is already past! Haha... but we have anniversary to celebrate each year, so why not... ahaks!

Anyway, enjoy your watching. Credit to CST production and Oh bulan for this amazing video and info.



BTW, selamat pengantin baru buat Nurul Syuhadah (she's my junior...hehe but I ajelah yang kenal dia!) and Amir. Semoga bahagia ke akhir hayat. And you look so sweet bertudung macam tu (Oh ini merujuk kepada video terkini waktu akad nikah mereka). Harapnya akan kekal begitu ameen.

Snowy Mountain (Finale)

As I promised......

Actually, there are 4 places where you can go for ski, snowboarding and toboggan. The famous one is Perisher but we chose Thredbo. Sebab confirm school holiday ni Perisher packed with people. Luckily, the weather was fine- sunny and frost cuma tak adalah snowing. Thank God sebab I pun tak tahan sejuk. Huhu...


Because we went there just for a day so we don't have enough time to learn and play the ski or snowboarding. So we played toboggan. It was fun and tiring as you have to climb the hill before you slide down.




We also take a lot of pictures while playing in the snow. Jakun lah katakan...hak hak hak... When it started to dark, we packed our things, return the clothes we hired, stop for a dinner and straight away going home.



InsyaAllah murah rezeki, next year we'll come back! And we are planning to stay there... yehaaa...so we will have time to play the ski! ( more pictures @my FB...hehe Malas nak upload )

The end-

psst: Habibi, ermm... next stop?@senyumkenyit

Snowy Mountain (part 2)

Actually we have planned to go to Snowy Mountain on the 2nd July but due to some circumstances we have postponed it to 16th July.

The week before was quite hectic for me and habibi as we had guests, (a family from Brunei) at our home. The wife has just finished her first degree and they are going back to hometown for good. So, we had helped them packing things and cleaning their rented house and let them stayed with us for two days before they fly back. Moreover, Habibi has just started his new work as a mushroom picker which is a tiring work but with good pay@duit (Oo yeah that is just another great story to share!) and I still have some writing progress to be submitted to my supervisor before 16th.. phewww....@penatWhat a tiring week....

But, Alhamdulillah we manage to settle everything and even had time to go for our last minute shopping. Hehehe.... So that night, we packed our things and prepared some foods. At 3.30 am we departed from Wollongong. During the 6 hours journey, we stopped at several places for a rest and to perform our prayer. By 8.00am we arrived at Cooma which is not far away from Snowy mountain.

Here, there are a lot of ski shops where you can hire all the ski stuff, such as parka, pants, boots, tire chains and etc. Me and Habibi just hire the pants and boots as we already have the parkas and gloves. A parka is a windproof jacket with a hood, designed to be worn in cold weather. And of course it has to be waterproof as you don't want to get wet in icy water.....@gigit

In this small town you can also find great accommodations if you wish to stay here for a few days or just an overnight. Some of our friends who came earlier, stayed in one of these beautiful pant house. So, we stopped by to reheat our foods and had our heavy breakfast there.

Owh... I'm just supper lazy to keep on writing so let's jump to the pictures...

Inside the shop. Variety of ski stuff to choose!

Snowy Mountain (part 1)

Finally we are here.....:girl_4:



Just a sneak peek... I will update soon...very soon....with lots of pictures and stories. So stay tuned guys...

Do you have any dreams?

Dreams…

Do you have any dreams? Have you ever dream of something and after a few years later it comes true? Well I do!

When I was young, I admired those kids who managed to get straight A’s in UPSR, PMR or SPM and were announced as one of the best student in their school. Not just that but their picture was appeared in local newspapers and some even luckier to be featured on news. I was jealous. So I had a dream that one day I could be like them too. After a few years, my dream was coming true. I was announced as the best student in engineering department and I won the best thesis in environmental field. I received the award from Sultan Mizan who was the chancellor at my Uni. My picture appeared on local newspapers. I was blessed. Thank you Allah!

I also had dreamt to be a doctor and to study abroad. But I did badly during my matriculation years plus my English was lousy. So I was dumped in a course which I never think of. Unlike my best friends they scored with flying colours and both of them managed to study medicine abroad. I felt embarrassed so I keep distance away from them. But still, I keep on dreaming and believing for years that one day my dreams will come true.

Now, those dreams are coming true. Even not exactly as I planned or dreamt but I think it is much better than anything I could think of. Now, I’m pursuing my doctorate study in Australia. That means, soon I will become a doctor. Well not a medical doctor as I dreamt of but a philosophy doctor and later on will be a professor or professor emeritus? Who knows! Isn’t it sounds much better?

And long ago when I was a kid I want to rollerblade so much. But I didn’t dare to ask my parents to buy one for me. I kept close to my heart. But last weekend, I went shopping to Dapto with my dear hubby and guess what? He bought me a rollerblade for 5 dollars? Isn’t it great?



So, what I’m trying to say is it is okay to have big dreams as long as we work for it unlike Mat Jenin who had dreams in dreams! I remembered my mom once said, “Dream with your feet on the ground”. So, friends, let’s start dreaming!@rindu


We all have our own life to pursue, our own kind of dream to be weaving. And we all have some power to make wishes come true, as long as we keep believing.

Save the date...

Just a quick update...

'Save the date' video. Not mine! But, Tomok (New Boyz) with Ayu. They're getting married on the 1st July. His video was made by CST production. Kinda unique & must be costly…Anyway enjoy watching it!



Life as a wife...

It has been a while since my last update. Few days ago, I've been busy writing my research proposal. Very soon, I'll start my lab work and my life is getting busy and busier each day...Well, the journey has just begun and may Allah give me the strength, patience and guidance and time to blogging to complete my study within 3 years (or less). Yeah, less is better....of course! Ameen....

Life as a wife
We have been together as husband and wife for almost 9 months now. Wow, never thought that time flew that fast! Tapi, baru last 3 months terasa hidup bagai suami isteri. Before this, we were 'weekend husband and wife'. So, I haven't got a chance to be his fully wife doing housework chores and show him my super not-talent in cooking! But now, living together and far away from Malaysia, I have sort of expose the real me...Heh-

Well guys, I'm not good at cooking. Seriously! The first time I learn how to cook is when I was 20. Itu pun masak nasi saja. But later on, when I stayed with friends during my final year degree I already know how to cook simple dishes like telur masak sambal, sayur campur goreng, nasi goreng, daging masak kicap, tomyam pakai perencah and ikan berlada. But I never had guts to cook curry, sup tulang and other complicated dishes! Terukss kan?

Before this, kalau malas masak or dah jemu dengan masakan sendiri, akan senang lenang mencari warung di luar rumah. But now, I have no choice but have to cook even though all the times sometimes I feel lazy or tired. Because here in Wollongong, not every stalls is 'halal' and everything is expensive so we need to save our budget. 1AUD = RM3! So, aside from my own lab at the Uni, my kitchen has become my 2nd lab and my beloved husband is the supervisor! He's the one who praise my cooking, gives good comments, support and even help me in the kitchen. I'm so blessed to have him in my life. Thank you Allah. And thanks to myresepi.com I have learnt a lot of simple delicious dishes such as Nasi tomato, nasi lemak, tomyam (without perencah cube), ayam Vietnamese, chicken curry, soup and a lot more! And now, I wish that we have oven at home because I'm so eager to bake cakes, cookies and western foods.

Okay, I guess I have to stop right now. I need to continue with my proposal writing. Wish me all the best yea. And InsyaAllah, in a near future I will try to share my favourite 'simple delicious dishes' especially for the working wife. Till then take care everyone! Cheers...

Persimmon picking

Last two weeks, we went for Persimmon picking with several friends at Cedar Creek Orchard. With 5 dollars per entry (for adult), they took us inside the orchard, showed us how, what and where to pick! We strolled for about 30-45 mins and picked whichever fruits that we like. We were allowed to taste only ONE fruit! (damn...so kedekut!). The fruits that we picked will be charged per kilo and the price depends on the season. Usually 5-6 AUD per kg and the picking season start from mid April to the beginning of June. It was fun for me as I never had experience in orchard fruit before. Not even in Malaysia. Okay, now lets the pics do the talking!



p/s: I love the colours of autumn! BTW, persimmon is pisang kaki. Really nice, sweet and fruity@kenyit

Death by the snow

Today's weather is so cold even though it's bright and sunny day. I can't feel the heat and I'm shivering to death as I walk to the nearest bus stop. :girl_6: The temperature is expected to be at 8-10 oC. I know this is just the beginning of winter. The temperature may drop to almost zero. Who knows?@garuHow I wish I'm at Malaysia right now even though lately people keep complaining how hot the weather is like. But I like hot, well not too hot maybe...but not this cold! gggrrrrrrrr.....

I'm glad that I didn't choose places like Europe or Russia to further my study. If not I'm gonna be 'death by the snow'! Do you know that before it's snowing the temperature drop? So it becomes freaking cold. But as snow falls, the temperature stabilize and become warmer. Actually, snowing does not cause the warmth but the relative warmth cause the snow! (Haha- You may want to check that info again!).

Even though I like warmth weather but, I'm still dreaming of playing in the snow like skiing, snowboarding or at least building up a snowman. Hehehe... Therefore, by the end of this July, we are planning to go to Snowy Mountain with some friends. My habibi keep teasing me about this since I am very prone to cold. Yeah sikit punya sejuk pun I dah menggigil tahap giga. And everytime I'm shivering, he will cover me with 2 pieces of blankets and hug me tightly so that I'll become warmer. I'm so bless to be his wife and the fact that we're already married. @cinta So to all single ladies out there (especially to those yang sudah berpacaran) cepat-cepatlah menikah and stay away from zina. Feel the sweetness of married life.@kenyit

Here, are some of the pictures of Snowy mountains that I captured from goggle. If you want to know more about snowy mountains, wait until I blog about it or just simply click this website.


Nice, isn't it?

p/s: Please forgive me for my improper language and grammatical errors. I'm not good in English writing but I still wanna give a try... I feel so shamed...@topi
