2010..

Tup tap..tup tap..dh masuk 2010 pn kita.. Cepat sungguh masa berlalu.. 2009 terasa sangat cepat berlalu..tak sempat nk bercerita sangat kat blog ni.. Banyak juga perkara yang menarik sepanjang 2009, cuma tak sempat di kongsi di sini.. The best thing in 2009, of course, having the new addition in my family, Aimy Mardhiya.. dah masuk 4 bulan pn skrg ni..

Sometime in June 2009, we moved to our very own house.. i'll blog about our new home one of these days..Insya Allah.. In September 2009, I was promoted jadi lecturer.. Alhamdulillah, setelah penat berjuang di medan Master, akhirnya perjuangan itu membuahkan hasil yang sangat indah..
Many interesting things happened in 2009 but for now itu saje yang sempat dicoretkan di sini.. Apa-apa pun, 2009 had been great, hopefully 2010 would be better..Amin..

H1N1: some tips to share

Wabak H1N1 yang melanda sekarang ni semakin meruncing dan membimbangkan.. so here I have some tips on how to cure/ prevent it.. Receveived it through email from Pn. A this morning.. tak tahu betul ke tak but worth to try..and I thought I should share it here, who knows it might be useful..

1. minum air kelapa muda coz dalam air kelapa muda ada elemen antiviral yang boleh melawan penyakit tersebut.. Insya Allah..
2. minum air jus apple hijau or fresh orange, minum sampai hilang simptom sakit tekak dan demam..

Semoga kita semua akan sentiasa dilindungi daripada epidemik yang merbahaya ini.. Amin..

The interview

When I'm writing this I just got back from the interview..the interview to convert my current post to a lecturer. I've been waiting for this interview long enough, but since everything went slow with the 'U' where I did my master.. nak keluar result lambat, nak keluar surat senat pun lambat, so kena tunggu agak lama.. sedikit kronologi..

Nov 08 - viva (where I passed with some corrections to be made)
Dec 08 - I handed the corrected version of my thesis to my examiner

Jan 09 - My examiner accepted my thesis and when I went to hand it to my program coordinator, she said I've passed the date for thesis correction submission, while I was then told by the postgraduate center that I had 2 weeks more before the dateline... Why were there two different dates for the thesis correction submission? Just because the miscommunication between the program coordinator and the posgrad center, I had to wait until May 09 before my result was released..that was almost half a year... and then I had to wait for about another month before they produce the senate letter saying that I have finished my study.. Sakit hati bila mengingatkan semua ni, tapi puas hati dapat luahkan kat sini..

Anyway, back to the original story..about the interview.. I waited quite long for this interview.. but then when it actually comes, I friecked out!! Dah la kena buat mock-teaching.. pastu soalan-soalan dalam interview tu sangat la power terutamanya soalan2 daripada TNC .. so rakan-rakan yang akan melalui pengalaman yang sama nanti, be prepared je la..hehe..

Borak-borak pagi isnin..

So..it's monday again.. cepatnye masa berlalu.. rasa macam sekejap sangat weekend, and now I'm back in the office..with a long list of tasks to be done..Hmm.. So what's in the list.. Let see..

- Course structure for 3 new subjects
- The new edition of thesis guideline
- Presentations (on thursday & friday) - need to prepare on both presentations..
- The extended abstract format..(need to finalize it with Pn. F)
- The conference brochure, website, jacquet, badge, name tag, business card.. (sometimes I wonder in which committee I actually belong...?)

Hmm..which one to start first? Nak kena lambung dadu ni..hehe.. I'll just start with any one that I think most interesting first.. Time keje melambak macam ni, it is important to remain happy and calm.. Stress won't help you to settle any of the tasks... kan..?

Anyway, last weekend was really something.. My parents came over and we all (my eldest sis's family, my brother's family, my sis's L family, my family and my parents) gathered up in my eldest sister's place.. we did some makan-makan.. ada pulut durian, ada pulut dgn ikan masin, ada laksa kelantan, ada laksa penang..macam2.. seronok betul...macam raya la pulak..

Dah lama sangat tak dapat peluang untuk berkumpul ramai-ramai macam tu..kecuali masa raya.. Masing-masing sibuk dengan life masing-masing.. sesekali dapat peluang macam ni, rasa sangat berharga.. May this kind of moment come more frequently after this..

Bob the builder?

We just moved in into our new house a month ago..and we got this 'Bob the builder' to help us do some repairing here and there around the house..

Birthday Celebration

Last sunday we had a small and simple party to celebrate Ashmal and Raiesa's birthday (my niece) who is just a week younger than Ashmal. Initially we planned to have a 'real' party to celebrate the birthday boy and girl, but everyone was busy and couldn't really plan for a proper party..and so we ended up with having some makan-makan at my sister's place, just to please the kids.

Of course, Ashmal was very excited.. tengok ajela gambar2 dia kat bawah ni.. Tak sabar2 nak tiup lilin so that he can cut the cake into pieces..

Sempena majlis tu jugak my sister made some 'nasi kerabu'.. sangat la sedap..Boleh buat katering ni..hehe.. Bravo to my sis!!!

Hopefully next year we can have a 'real' party.. some cupcakes with his favourite cartoon characters, some friends and fun games perhaps..
