Batu Feringgi

My dad and I spent our weekend in Penang because we just got here on Tuesday. Thus, we decided to book a resort in Batu Feringgi for a day. It has two rooms with toilet each, living room, kitchen and balcony. We got off after Asr and it took about 20 mins to reach there. At first, dad registered our entrance in the office and took the keys plus WiFi password ;)

First view after stairs from car park. It's raining anyway while we're otw. That's why that picture looked dim a bit.

Front door~

Living room n my daddy a.k.a. 'Encik'. It's not that spacious but the sofas are super comfy. The windows are wide and bright. We can see spectacular view from the living room. 

Kitchen. Fully furnished but not so for electrical equipment such as toaster, rice cooker and yea that's all i can think right now.

View from the balcony. imagine the breeze after rain. Refreshing! <3 p="">

Right: my room with 2 single beds

Left: master bedroom (king-sized)

My room. 

My dad's.

Should be my room is the master bedroom because for sure I'm not being selfish or overtaking my daddy, I need my own space and private toilet. I really really don't know to feel guilty or not about what I'm gonna tell right now. Sigh. It reminds me about our future rooms organisation in Shah Alam's house are totally, messed up. Currently, i really hope that i wouldn't get involved at all. It pissed me off that us 'girls' won't have any toilets but abang ngah, who didn't consider our opinions at all, gets two rooms that has a toilet which is located between both of them. Whereas now my sister and I have to run to our parents room to go to the toilet ugh.. Really?!

I took these photo by my dad's phone. It's pretty windy and cold. I've never had been to any beach when it's cloudy or drizzling. We walked through the side beach until maghrib. Seeing such magnificent view created by Allah is such an amazing bless. Not all of us have sight yet they are grateful to Him. SubhanAllah.

Our humble dinner. Maggi is a good choice to those who are lazy to cook like me. eh wait. I don't even know how to slice onions, how am I even deserved to get that title.

Two unfilled glasses. My dad's and mine. If I'm not mistaken, we watched a football match after news.

Then, I was so busy updating and exploring apps (since there's free WiFi *grinning*). I watched some splendid videos about history, colleges and many more. those were from Khan Academy which is one of the coolest apps I've ever had. Really. I must recommend this apps to you guys! 

That night, I slept early. Sleeping early means would be waking up early. As we all know, sleeping in a freezing cold room makes us uncomfortable. I woke up with tears and catch a flu. The next day, we had our breakfast at Teluk Bahang. So near to escape. hehe made me reminisce those moments with Aqilah.

Special roti jala. It's crispy and tastalicious. Oh with a glass of milk tea.

Another version of carbs. 

This roti canai, is, unique. Can you see that it's actually has two layers. The outer part looks crispy while the inner part looks chewy. Well, the taste was marvellous. 5 stars. Haven't found any better.

Last but not least. My lunch. My so called economy rice. 

Before going back home, we had another 'jalan-jalan cari makan' to a medan selera near the resort. The side dishes were only fried spinach and fish balls. Oh I took some soup that had carrots for my vitamin A. 

Alhamdulillah for a great weekend. Miss ibu.

The Exposed w Izumi

Izumi, my first Japanese friend from British Council. 

We became closer after I saw her walking to her car in Marina Bay. It means we're living in the same roof! Since then we always go to class together and sometimes hang out to the nearest mall either in Paragon or Gurney Plaza. Unfortunately, she only took classes of the first set in this year. For a catch up session, we went for a movie after lunch today.

My sizzling kuey teow 😋

The movie was a bit boooring. Nevertheless, the ending was okay and the flow of the story was quite complicated. Some of the parts weren't explained at all. My rate: 5/10

In the car park. Surpriseee! Izumi gave me a pack of ramen with chicken flavor. She knew that I'm particular about halalness. She picked the japanese ramen that has halal logo. What a lovely friend whom worth to keep ❤️

Looking forward to have another catch up sesh which is on the next early weekday maybe Monday or Tuesday?

Speaking Workshop

We had a speaking workshop that day. So, I followed my dad to his office and refreshed my homeworks while waiting for the class to start. The teacher was the one who sat in the middle. I don't remember or.. even asked his name! 🙊

The class alhamdulillah, very very interesting and helpful. It's about job prospect. We had to explain which qualities we should have and what kind of activity we would be involved in the field or career that we chose by a short presentation to our group. Well, overall mine was quite confident rather than how i used to be. The comments given by that teacher to me were: great approach and optimised hand gestures. 

After class, we had our lunch at Gems near to wa cafe at Little India's street. I wanted nasi campur for lunch but Roy and others invited us to have lunch together. Therefore, Sal, Weena and I joined them at the very last minute because they said that the foods provided were halal and even showed to us the certificate. I'm still not sure that it was a good or bad thing. The environment was so cultural and religiously for hindus. I had mixed feelings until now.. Anyway alhamdulillah there's variety of naan and each of them tasted uniquely different. 

I am really happy to meet them eventho we just met about one month only. Truly blessed. Alhamdulillah 😌

January Routine

Sunrise 🌄

Before that it's actually much more artistic. Compilation between the Sun and shattered clouds producing layers of reddish sunlight. Anyway I was late for subuh again. Therefore, I prayed first and but eventually it wasn't like that anymore.

Waiting for the bus at Marina Bay's bus stop. The weather was very hot and sunny. As usual, I have my cap and sunglasses and wore them like a diva nk pergi pantai.

10 mins later.. Already in the bus! I took some rest by closing my eyes with hope that i wouldn't fall to a wakeless nap. 

My lunch that i craved for everytime i'm not home 😂. After only drinks left, i heard one voice whom was familiar to me. It's dad's! We had some short conversation while finishing my iced lemon tea.

Our last class for this month n my humble results. الحمد لله 😊

Waiting for encik finishing his work 😪

Then after maghrib we'll go buy some groceries at tesco. Bye for now 😉

A day with a constant headache..

Alhamdulillah, I still could have wake up seeing such a beautiful scenery but sigh again I was late for subuh 😭

Today's fajr 😍

After encik had gone to work, I continued watching another fav programme (Hadith bersama Ustaz Muhadir Joll) in my fav channel (Tv9). It was about gardening as a hobby. Around prep time, I overslept and had a tiny little headache after woke up until now.. There was nothing to do and I got bored and sick of boredom. So, I decided to watch a movie in Gurney Plaza.

My simple yet comfortable ootd

The weather was actually nice and dim (again another favourite thing in my life: diz kind of weather hehheh). Unfortunately, as i stepped out from my house the sunlight ain't hid anymore behind the clouds. Probably a sign for me to not go anywhere besides to grab some lunch or go to class. 

While waiting for the movie to start, i ate 'long chicken burger' at BK 😋

I didn't expect much from this movie but my rate is 7/10! الحمد لله, not a waste i hope so. It was about survival of a young woman named Cassie till the 5th wave of the alien's indirect attack. The best yet scariest part was it showed how a part of kiamah would have been (how about the real one which there will never has refugee at all), Subhanallah, may Allah protect us 😖. 

The story flow was interesting but the ending and relationship thingy were so high school typical. Overall, pretty good. Can't wait for the next move, "The Infinite Sea". 🌊  The movie ended by 2pm. 

Then before I performed my Dhuhr prayer, I took a round survey of new interesting books in mph and popular. This book blinded my mind to read other that this so bought it at MPH 📖. Now i knew where the islamic bookstore would have been. There's in Shah Alam too yayy hehe 😂. I've had been searching for them quite some time. Hwaa finally I found them alhamdulillah thank God 😭❤️

Currently just finished writing by the pool side with a beautiful sky plus unfinished green tea shake. Off for maghrib. Salam 🌆

Riak by Ustaz Ahmad

In the past class, they've had discussed about jealousy. This is because of feeling the need to compete with each other, without acknowledging the ni'ma came from الله's blessing. Therefore, a few ways we can do to remove this negative intention. One of them is make dua to the other person for goodness. The best is even though we knew that الله had divided each and every rizk for the ummah, we are supposedly be able to share them. Another way to overcome jealousy, give salam to everyone, smile. If we meet somebody whom has different ideology than us, after smile we could leave to avoid from arguing. We shouldn't be happy when others talking badly behind or infront of him/her. The main point of the class was about riak. Riak is one of syirik khafi (unseen). The urge to be seen by human and get praises from people. This is why we should correct our intention to be for the sake of الله. May Allah protect us.

Tahlil arwah Pak Lang

My parents and I came to Farahiyah's home before maghrib. Encik, mak ngah Ne and I arranged sajadahs so that it would be easier for the guest also the host to perform our prayer in jamaah. After that, we did tahlil for Pak Lang. At first, Aicu made an emotional speech about the day of Pak Lang's death. We read yasin (the heart of Al-Quran). Then, we did some dzikrullah and duas. May الله bless and ease him in the afterlife, آمين. 

As usual, we had various delicious food for dinner. الحمد لله. Later on, January's birthday celebration time! 🎂. Including encik, baby, kak ngah and etcetera 😊

Confused in choosing life career

Met with Dhiya for catch up session and QnA about architecture. I wanted to pursue study in interior design but after discussing with a few people who have experience in this field and thinking about my passion, I am actually more to archi. Therefore, I need to rethink and wait for the results to come out. It's on 2nd february 😭. I thought we just started the year! Time is faster as soon as we get older indeed.

Ramadhan terakhir

This ramadhan started with a bad news. My entire ramadhan became so weak and I had a struggle with my mind and honestly I could have performed better. Whatever amal I did this year was worst than before, which wasn't good enough and idk hm. May Allah forgives us. I believe in Qada' and Qadr but maybe I haven't had courage to forgive him at this moment. O' Allah please help your slave. 

Abang ngah

First day kerja hehe.  

Ramadhan

If this Ramadhan going to be our last one, may Allah forgives us and accepts our duaa. Lets renew eeman, increase i'lmu and pursue ibadah with more understanding. TabarakAllah.
