~ The Job ~


Life had been busy due to extra long hours I need to endure during the last few days of e-Filing. I kinda like my job even though it was tiring. It gave me a lot of experiences such as meeting with different kinds of people every day and trying to find the best way to handle them. Some are nice but some are not, it depends on the approach I will take in order to make them understand what they don't. As a conclusion, my interpersonal skill has been incredibly improved! I hope to keep this spirit throughout my entire service with the organization.

~ He Heals Me by Indie Arie ~


He heals me
Told him my biggest secret
And he told me four.
He smiled at me and said that makes me love more
And then he made me laugh
And I knew it was a sign
That he was a man,
That I wanted in my life

And with every passing day
I feel more and more of that way

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me,
He heals me

I can play him songs, all through the night,
And he will listen to every line,
And even when I'm wrong, he is still kind
He chooses his words wisely when he tells me I'm not right.

And yes he is a beautiful man,
But he is also a beautiful friend

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me

The moment that we met, he made me smile.
He has so much compassion in his eyes
I have no idea, how long he'll be here
A season or a lifetime, forever or a year
But for the first time in my life I'm not worried about the future
Because we have such a wonderful time when we're together
However things turn out, it's all right
Cause he's already changed my life.

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me..........


** I heard this ballad song on Ghost Season 2 and and love it since then. Keep playing it hundreds time a day!

~ Wonderful Weekends ~

As I planned in previous entry, the Cameron trip has been materialized and it was a blast. Hubby and I enjoyed everything, the hotel room, colorful flowers, cold & windy weather and all places we visited especially the tea farms. The last time I went there was more than 15 years ago, even though hubby was there last November with his family but I couldn't come due to some reasons. The recent trip gave me sweet memories and I have them captured on 700++ pictures! I had tough time choosing which ones should be on friendster and facebook, HeHe..

Forget about the trip, let's move on to next story. Last night was also great. Hubby and I had a 'makan besar' with our family (the in-laws) @ Sala Classic and the food was all delicious. We had ikan kerapu, ikan siakap, lala bakar, sotong goreng tepung, tomyam, kailan ikan masin, abc and many more. We rarely dine out together so the get-together was really fun, in fact, I'm starting to adapt being in a big family (well, not really big but if compared to being the only child, it is sure to have some differences).

~ Vacations ~



Hubby and I were supposed to be in Cameron Highlands for a weekend getaway but since I can't get a day off on Friday, we are postponing it to next weekend. We spent our free time talking about places we want to go in future and we ended up with quite a long list. I don't know whether we could afford to materialize all the plans in short time but I do know we will make it happen no matter how. We categorized the places in 3 categories:-

A) 2009 Vacations
  • Cameron Highlands - April '09 [Confirmed]
  • Kuching - May '09 [Confirmed]
  • Redang / Perhentian Island - August '09 [If we had some extra moolahhhhhh..]
  • N9, KL & Selangor - December '09
B) 2010 Vacations
  • Kelantan & Pahang - February '10
  • JB & Singapore - Between April '10 to June '10
  • Bandung and Jakarta - Between August '10 to October '10
C) 2011 Vacation and Onwards
  • Tioman Island
  • Bali
  • Hong Kong
  • Sipadan Island
  • Perth / Melbourne
The 3rd category is merely a plan since year 2011 and onwards are still a long way to go.. Still, we listed down the places we really want to go if we had the chances and money too!

The only problem is being a teacher has only entitled hubby with just 7-days annual leaves. Yep, he has several months off every year during school holidays but
planning a vacation during these time is a big NO-NO. Every vacation spot will be packed with people and the air ticket and hotel rates are insanely high. Since he had already took 2 days off for our last holiday in KK, the remaining 5 days should be planned carefully. By the way, we are both happy to postpone everything if we found out I got pregnant during the time.

~ Emptiness ~



The absence of someone important is making me depress during this weekend. Hubby is away somewhere in Perak as a chaperone to his students whom involved in drama competition. I've become restless without him. We rarely fail to meet every single weekend since that is our last hope to really be like other couples (sadly, we are singles on weekdays). Even though he gave me a short visit last Thursday, the happiness ended as soon as he left.

Friday was dull and exhausting but I forced myself to drive to the nearest shopping complex to do some window shopping. The thoughts of buying new clothes / shoes / things could cheer me up but I ended up buying nothing. So I guess not being with hubby is really affecting the way my mind works..

Saturday is not over but I'm still doomed with an emptiness feeling, not knowing what to do. Later, I was invited to hang out at Old Town with Hafiz, Yus and their baby Elfy. It was fun and I'm lucky to have friends around during a bad day (the downside: I felt a twinge of envy towards them for having what I want, a baby of course..).

There's only one thing left for me to survive this weekend: to start on Breaking Dawn, 4th book of the Twilight Saga. I love the first three books after I finished reading them but I do have the slightest feeling they are quite sickly-sweet a.k.a corny.. Regardless of that, I'm hooked to know what is going to happen next. To be honest I suspects reading these love stories has made me oversensitive this weekend. It might be possible though.. You see, I've been reading those books (almost 1500 pages to be exact) nonstop since last week, no wonder it grows in me.. He He :)
