Annoucing the arrival of Ramadhan... Alhamdulillah.
Rasa macam tak percaya je. Time has been flying fast man. Sure, it feels like forever since the last Ramadhan but I still can't believe that it has arrived for this year.
I am hoping for a lot of improvements this year... dari segi macam2 la. I hope to be a better servant of Him, lebih ikhlas and consistent in doing ibadah, and lebih bertawakkal and percaya pada ketentuanNya. Sometimes, i feel that life has been quite tough on me.. tapi padahal there're so many rahmat and nikmat that I've received and that I should be more bersyukur. Jadikanlah aku hambaMu yang bersyukur ya Allah.
This year has created another achieved milestone for me as I went for umrah last April. To be there, in front of Kaabah is truly amazing. The experience is hard to be described by words. Maybe I could try another entry just for that. The dissappointing thing is that i don't do as much improvement on myself after coming back from umrah. Tak ada consistency, istiqamah. Bila rasa rajin buat, bila tak.. hmmmm... Astaghfirullahaladziim.
So yeah, selamat berpuasa, Maah zahir batin. Semoga Ramadhan tahun ini lebih baik dari tahun2 sebelumnya :)

I'm back :)
I think it has been berkurun since i last blogged here.. but all things considered, i think i should start writing again. This could be like a sort of mental therapy.
Last week we had a Sentuhan Kasih event organized by the company at Kampung Orang Asli. Liza, Fira and i carpooled there during the night before event for 'melawat kawasan'. Little did we know that the hampers are not ready. So, dah sampai tu dengan baju2 kurung ni terus la duduk and re-packed the hamper. I felt sooo melekit. After having dinner of nasi goreng cendawan at taman melawati, we got to my house to pick up my things. I slept at liza's house that night so that its easier for us to go together in the morning. We arrived home around 12 ok. The next morning plan was to be at KLCC area around 630am. Hmmm, memang tak la kan.
It was like a kenduri kawin except that there's no bride or groom :) We cooked, mingled with the community, contribute to Ramadhan hamper, play with the kids etc. But, kids being kids memang penat jugak nak layan. Some of them are just stubborn, some are cheeky, some are even grumpy hahaha. At the end of the event we just sat there lepak. Suddenly, some of the kids datang bawak anak kura2. Comel sangat, rasa nak bawak balik je. I think it was not hard for them to find another... kampung dia tu tepi sungai je.
I always think that i would love to do more volunteer. It's like living with a purpose. Before this i thought it would be cool and fun to be part of a bigger volunteer group like helping tsunami victims or joining the palestine or menyelamatkan mangsa tanah runtuh whatsoever. But now that i just completed one, it's actually more than meets the eye... it requires a lot of work, and energy. Your mental and physical are both challenged. Buat 1 day event pon dah rasa nak pengsan. So yeah, i don't think i'm ready for a more serious kind of volunteer work .
Ya Allah, please give me more courage and capability so that i'll be a more purposeful servant. Amiin.
