Family matters

Huh???Is it really happening?!!It's actually 2 years since i last posted anything on my blog!hah!!Well too many things had happened during the last 2 years..My engagement to my beloved on May 2009, my trip to Redang/Perhentian Island, and my grandfather passing just before Ramadhan this year...and countless others that had happened. But anyway, I'll try updating once in a while..(Evil inner voice: "Yeah rite gie, let's see how long u would last this time..haha")..

This year, raya was not as happening as the years before..I dunno, maybe the fact that our family lost my grandfather before Ramadhan dampen the raya spirit a bit. But, we still celebrate as usual..my mom made the nasi himpit, daging rendang, ayam (i'm not sure what kind off cooking done, but it's still finger-licking good)..My mom had never let us down when it comes to cooking (our size is proof enuff!!heheh)..

My dad renovated the house a bit..made it bigger, since his gonna get 3 son/daughter in law this year...

Got together with many of family members this raya..and snapped a family piccah from mother's side..this is not the entire family though..i have a very big family, and loving it!

My grandfather passing made me thinking of few things..of how precious the people around you are..n i snapped a lot of pics of my family this year, feeling afraid of losing yet another a loved ones. And it shaken me  up a bit when my grandma said that i snapped lots of pics with her coz im afraid that she'll die soon..yeah, she's not someone who beats around the bushes. It hurts to see her suffering without my grandfather, sometimes saw her silent tears, and it made me wonder, what will we do if it ever happens to us in the future?

Count your blessings!

Wow..it's been a while since i last posted on my blog..
been quite bz (yeah rite!)..
celebrated my birthday last week..the day which everyone should count their blessings..
why?well..as for me..these are the reasons;

1) I got to live another year, alhamdulillah, Allah blessed me with a good life last year..and hopefully i will get many few years to live after this..amiinnn..not to forget, this is the day to reflect all the things i've done the previous year..(opss..looks like most of my goals are yet to be achieved..*sigh)

2) It is during birthdays that i realize, i have soo many ppl that cares about me.i kept getting birthday wishes and messages that day, and gifts as well! mAde me feel really special, and important!heh heh..im a VIP!! it really touched my heart actually, to be remembered, eventhough sometimes, i forgot to return the wish to the person on her/his birthday.Arigato minna san!Love u all!promised myself to wish my family n frens on their birthday..

3) it is the time to enjoy the day!afterall, it is the day you were borne!so, no matter how bz, do something..if not, do a belated celebration. as for me, usually i will just go for a very nice meal, with friends, or my loved one, and have a nice time. This year, i spent it with my friends, at Kenny Rogers, and eventhough it is more of a "breaking fast" reunion dinner. Still, it was a merry, happy2 time!ureshikatta!!

4)..err..shud be more than 3 reasons to be happy on birthdays..but cudnt think of any rite now..so just add to the list urself k? ;-)

To those celebrating their birthdays..Happy birthday!! Pamper yourself on this special day..afterall, it YOUR day!

Memories

Are memories bad??

Not all rite?

Sometimes, what we did, or what had happened to us in the past make us a better person.

Missing your past?

Sometimes i do. Sometimes, i miss the people i had around me in the past. I'm sure u've been the too..Missing the Loved ones that been gone (but not forgotten), ex-boyfriends/girlfriends, long-lost friends and so one. Everyone has at least someone to miss.

Earlier today, I suddenly remember someone that been put away in "memory segment". The special place in my head, where i'll visit sometimes, whether consciously, or just suddenly. And i wonder how that person is doing, and feeling like asking; how ru, how's life, ru happy?

Sometimes, we think of the people of our past, remembering them, missing them, and after that, we tuck that person back to where he/she belongs..in the past..in Memories....until the next time..

P/S: I know i'm not making much sense,but i guess at least it makes me feel better. :)
