Undangan

Can't wait for this year to end

It's 2nd half of October now. I had a wonderful but sederhana Hari Rayer with my family back in my hometown. So sad Aisyah and the gang cannot join us this year. So glad that we had a sederhana celebration one, yet we met almost everyone in the bigger family, especially the elderly, got time to get some rest some more (that was the best part, rite kakak?). Now, I am back to work. Students are not here, they are having semester break aka study leave, before coming back to sit for the final exam starting Oct 29.
November is approaching, soon. Next month, I plan to take a 1-day leave, after the Deepavali. Maybe I will go back to my parent's house, not for leisure I suppose, instead we have a lot and a lot of things to do on the list daaa... By the time I'm back to KL, it's already mid November.
Then, comes the last month of the year in the Gregorian calendar. Kak Maznah will receive another pink form from me, I'll be applying for a 3-day leave this time (still got 11 days of leaves left, will carry forward then). I'll be flying back to my hometown to celebrate Rayer Haji. Will see a lembu tumbang this year. Hehe. Plus, I'll be attending my cousin's wedding.
I'll be back to work after Christmas. By that time, it's the last week of the year and we will be counting days to 2008, insyaAllah, kalau panjang umur.
All in all, when the year 2007 is ending, meaning I'm gearing up to get my thesis done.

At 6PM, I'm still at work

Hola, ppl might think what a ridiculous person I am. Working after 5:30 is not a wierd thing for most of us. And ppl might also think that, working at the government sector, selalu balik awal. Hmm... I tot so too. Now that I've tried it myself, I can no longer agree with that statement.

And one more think, it's Ramadhan. I should be home by now, preparing for break fast. Talking about Ramadhan, what a great Ramadhan I've had so far. This is my second time fasting in my home country after coming back from the States. Plus, Ayah has been so nice to accompany me for the last 2 weeks. I could just drive back at 6:40 and by the time I reach home, everything is already on the dining table. But now I'm back on my own. Gotta think of what to cook each night for breaking fast and sahr.

At 6PM, I am still at work, don't call me workaholic, please. My working hours: 8AM to 6PM Monday to Friday (goes up to 8PM if it's not bulan puasa), 12PM-4PM Saturday and Sunday. Okay, can't concentrate anymore, forgot what I was about to say. Gotta go back to my thesis. Thank god next week is the last week of class. Even though that would mean the students are about to have their semester break, for me it's time to put up the gear and write my thesis. Hopefully there will be less departmental work, so that I can finish up my thesis....mimpilahh....

The moment

What if I told you it was all meant to be?
Would you believe me, would you agree?
Its almost that feeling that we've met before so tell me that you dont think Im crazy when I tell your love is here and now.

A Moment like this.
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.
Some people search forever for that one special kiss.
I cant believe its happening to me.
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

Everything changes, but beauty remains.
Something so tender I cant explain.
Well I may be dreaming but til I awake..Can we make the dream last forever?
And I'll cherish all the love we share for a moment like this.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.
Some people search forever for that one special kiss.
I cant believe its happening to me.
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

The speed of waiting love of all.
I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall.
So let me tell you this.
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this...

Some people search a lifetime for a moment like this.
Some people search forever for that one special kiss.
I cant believe its happening to me.
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

everytime...

I still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams.
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive.

'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause every time we touch, I feel this static.
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry.

The good and the bad times, we've been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.

'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause every time we touch, I feel this static.
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.

I'M IN LOVE....AGAIN...

You attract what you are

To attract attractive people, you must be attractive.
To attract powerful people, you must be powerful.
To attract committed people, you must be committed.
Instead of going to work on the, you go to work on yourself.
If you become, you attract.

So....WHO says that opposite attracts?? Hehe...

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter if you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you better be running.
