Sometimes I feel like I'm the luckiest girl on earth. Not because I have all the money in the world, nor the fame which most desire but because I have contentment :)
Bila seorang hamba sakit, maka Allah mengutus dua malaikat kepadanya, kepada malaikat tersebut Allah berfirman: Dengarkanlah apa yang dikatakan oleh jamba-Ku ini kepada orang yang datang melihatnya; jika ia memuji-Ku, maka beritahukanlah hal itu kepada-Ku, sedangkan Allah Maha Mengetahui semuanya itu, maka Allah kembali berfirman: Bagi hamba-Ku itu, bila ia Aku matikan, ia akan Aku masukkan ke dalam syurga, jika ia Aku sihatkan, maka akan Aku gantikan dagingnya dan darahnya dengan yang lebih baik dari yang semula, dan akan Aku ampunkan semua kesalahannya.
My blog officially has a new stalker. Ehem ehem.. hahaha
BN2202 group meeting today! Daryl (aka future PHD student) decided to join Keith's 'speak-like-a-mat' club. Dangerous dangerous. I shall take it as my responsibility to stop the growing influence of Mr Chong. Well, I suppose Daryl is excused since he probably said those things due to the stress that our highly respected BN2202 professor has placed upon us. Right now, according to how things are, our workload has just increased tenfold. Woohoo! Some, like Keith, have chose to remain optimistic while others, like me, arent taking it too well. It's okay, shall be happy and look forward to the project still since it's gonna make me a hydrated bride in the future.. Hahaha..Okay im starting to talk nonsense. That's all for today.
PS. Changqing, if you are reading this, pls smile more cos you look a lot less fierce when you do. Thank you :)

First time driving in a multi storey carpark.. A few near-accident moments today. Astarghfirullah.. Must baca banyak selawat and doa naik kenderaan all the time. And my next aim is to park the car properly in less than 5 minutes!
InsyaAllah. Hope I will be able to drive without anyone beside me.. soon! :)
Yang kukejar bukanlah cinta lelaki tetapi cinta hakiki, Cinta Ilahi Kerana itulah yang pasti dan kekal abadi.
Ya Allah, andai ini semua adalah satu ujian bagiku, berilah aku kekuatan dan kesabaran untuk menghadapinya. Lindungilah hatiku daripada menyukai sebarang apa yang haram bagiku. Tunjukkanlah aku ke jalan yang benar, jalan yang Engkau redhai. Sesungguhnya, Engkaulah yang Maha Berkuasa atas segala urusan.
Disappointment. Something I'll have to deal with. Just a reminder to myself that only Allah doesnt disappoint.
I'm so so thankful I had the Ease Africa meeting just now. Helps me forget about all the unnecessary drama that happened today. MasyaAllah, we had a bit of debrief just now and all I can say is that I'm truly inspired. I'm inspired by the spirit that my brothers and sisters have. I'm inspired to be a better Muslim, regardless of whatever is happening around me. I'm gonna learn to care more towards others, especially my Muslim brothers and sisters around the world. I have to remind myself to make prayers for them; the oppressed, the tortured and the suffering. It's the least I can do.
May Allah grant ease to my brothers and sisters all over the world. May Allah make the suffering they have in this life a blessing for them in the Hereafter. Ya Allah, you are Most Powerful and Most Merciful, hence I pray that You will show mercy to them like how you have showed me mercy. InsyaAllah. Ameen..
If you have much, give of your wealth; if you have little, give of your heart. -Arabian proverb
Thanks Shehzadee for sharing this :) It's really a powerful quote. Seriously. It's indicating that everyone can be a giver. Even the poor. When was the last time you smiled at someone you didnt know? When was the last time you said kind words to your brother or sister? When was the last time you comforted your friends with encouraging words? There's so many things we can do even without spending a single cent. But how many of us are actually doing it? (reminder to self first). I mean, considering the society that we live in, a lot of people do not need our money. Love others for the sake of Allah and Allah will love you :)
That being said, we should still donate generously with our money whenever we can to help the less fortunate :)
Alhamdulillah.. Im so thankful for the wonderful(albeit annoying at times hahaha) coursemates that I have in school.. If not school will be really boring!! Not to say that lessons are totally boring but it gets pretty dry at times and a little humour helps in lightening the mood. Thanks so much to fahima who never fails to find fault with me. Haha.. Today we fought during lecture cos i ate this m&ms that fell onto the floor after blowing it and she was utterly disgusted. Hahaha. She's so funny la.. And thanks Arjun for smsing me in lecture to remind me not to sleep even though you are only TWO SEATS AWAY. haha. And kanmani, dinah and may for the social information.. Abt 'grapes'. Haha. Carry on with ur research eh? :P and rahiem who always kena kacau by me abt studying. Haha maaf zahir dan batin.. Hahaha.. And my grpmates! who im gonna be stuck with for the whole semester.. They are awesome la.. I feel like i underwork cos they do a lot.. And they are so funny too. Terutama sekali kawan peranakan saya keith yang pandai berbual macam mat. Haha..
What does the worst drought in sixty years mean when you have never ever been to a place where you fought for even a glass of water? No, not even a single drop you ever had to yearn for… … And right now as you talk how do you even begin to imagine mothers carrying children because they’re too weak to walk a thousand miles across borders all in order for a chance to live, for hope, that there could be the rope, provided by people all over the world who can’t cope knowing they’re doing nothing while Allah’s beautiful creations die, and I mean the sons and daughters of Adam, I mean our brothers and sisters, I mean people who could have been us. We could have been that father who had to leave his son behind while on the way to a campsite far-away because the son did not make it. Now the father can’t take it. Or we could have been the mother, who watched slowly as her daughter shrunk in size, except for her stomach, a sign of an unimaginable hunger, a sight if you saw, you’d never wish to remember. So instead, remember this - that our Prophet PBUH taught us this: The believers are one body - when one limb suffers, the whole body has to respond with fervour, with wakefulness. So let us wake up from any apathy, do more than just feel sympathy, because seriously, too many are suffering. Let’s ease their pain by deeds small but on the Day of Judgement, might not be in vain, our intention only to gain the blessings and favour of Allah, to whom we pray that East Africa sees a better day. Ameen.

Ya Allah berikan aku nikmat kesihatan, hati yang tenang dan juga untuk dapatkan ilmu yang manfaat.
Dan Ya Allah ampunkan dosaku. Sesungguhnya jika dosa-dosaku ini menghambat kehidupanku, ampunkanlah dosaku Ya Allah.
Ya Allah aku lemah Ya Allah. Engkaulah tempatku bergantung. Mungkin aku telah tinggalkan suruhanmu secara sedar atau tidak. Ya Allah berikanlah aku ingatan agar aku tidak lalai.
Dan Ya Allah Engkau tuhan yang Maha Esa dan Engkau juga yang berkuasa maka dengan kudratMu berikanlah diriku yang lemah ini pertolongan dan semangat untuk meneruskan perjalananku untuk menjadi hambamu yang solehah.
Allahumma solli ala Muhammad wa ala ali sayyidina Muhammad..
There are very few people in this world who want you to succeed more than themselves, and among them are your parents. Even if your parents are wrong, don’t argue with them. Allah is watching every argument. If you please your parents, you will succeed in life.
Dalam satu pengembaraan Setiap onak umpama cabaran Mungkin juga satu dugaan Namun di hari depan Kesusahan menjadi kemanisan Setiap titisan menjadi riangan Berkat doa, usaha dan kesabaran Allah menjadi tempat penentuan. Ameen
Although you're hurt, let's try to forgive okay Haslina? Cos loving, for the sake of Allah, is unconditional.
Everyone has feelings. It's whether they choose to show it. Thanks Safa, once again, for being there. I just cant thank you enough. May Allah bless you always. Love you dear :)
Thank you for being there :) For discussing with me about my assignment and researching for articles for me. For making sure that I took good care of myself. For accompanying me virtually till my dad came at 11 pm. Even though you were ill and you had exams the next day...
All the wonderful people around me are truly God-sent. Allah tested me today. Yet He, the most Kind, sent people to guide me as well. To comfort me when I thought I couldnt take it anymore. MasyaAllah..
Alhamdulillah.. The feeling of gratitude is truly overwhelming :')
We have, as human beings, a storytelling problem. We're a bit too quick to come up with explanations for things we don't really have an explanation for.
