The EsseNce oF L0Ve

You're my cushion when I fall

You help in times of trouble

You support me whenever I call

you're a wonderful mother,

So gentle, yet so strong.

The many ways you show you care

Always make me feel I belong.

I think of all the things you gave to me..

Sacrifice, devotion, love and tears,

Your heart, your mind, your energy and soul..

All these you spent on me throughout the years

I love you more than you know....

Another sister of mine has started blogging. This is one of her latest scribbles. I love it. Bravo sistah!

Funny Little Lady

There's this little lady who's funny you see,
Always out of place seeing big blue bubbles when everyone was seeing a tree,
She stuck her nose in a book while others brushing dolly,
Life is fascinating she says, but mama why am i born as me?
Could i've been born a cat mouse or a lovely tiny bee?

Girls play with her but at times why is she speaking differently?
Boys understood coffee when she really meant tea,
why oh why mama im being me?
Dream is a place in mind i'd like 2 be,
with warm blankety clouds keeping me safe,calm and jolly as can be,
flying far far where evryone's seeing bubbles instead of a tree,

Square balloons pastel of kinds bouncing and tickling me,
There's a big wonderful mess bubbling inside of me,
Need to let it flow and grow so i could be happy ordinary as any little lady might be

BLESSED WITH 8 KIDS

I'm a big fan of them. I watched their show on tv daily and on YouTube. 9 years ago they had no idea that they are gonna have such a big family. 9 years ago Kate was diagnosed having PCOS just like me. Twins and then sextuplets? They have been blessed aren't they?

HEARTS OUT

It was good having books around. It even started me to write again.

i pray

may Allah give me the strength

i'm scared

i'm sad

i pray

May Allah give me patience

i'm in a hurry

i'm far away catching up

i pray

may Allah give me direction

i'm walking in a circle

i'm avoiding being lost

i pray

may Allah give me peace

i've love too much

i worried too much

i pray

may Allah give me sanity

i'm all cried out

i've drained out

i pray

may Allah grant me mercy and forgiveness

i've forgotten

i've ingnored

HAVE YOU EVER

I just bought this song from itunes recently. My favourite song 10 yrs ago, and remain my favourite till now. Click HERE if you wanna listen to the song.

My sister just got herself a camera, and was experimenting on every subject crossing her mind. Clearly I was not in the mood for shots. These was the most decent shots. The rest of the shots was embarrassingly ugly photos of us.

worming the books

I went to PWTC yesterday with a fren i met way back in 1986. We took the same bus to school though we were not from the same school. We did contact via greetings card and letters over the years when I was in JB. We did managed to stay in touch till 1997. I bumped into her at Giant 2 months ago. I was glad i agreed to join her. I was glad i finally got out.

PEARLS OF RAIN

Couldn't really sleep, i watched a programme on channel 733 (Discovery Home & Health). Then, I heard random drops of rain from the back of the kitchen. Must've been from the awning extension. The TV reception was getting worse and so I switched it off. I reached for a coffee table sort-of-book that i had recently. It was a pictorial history of Malaysia from 1400-2004. The author, Wan Kadijah Moore was an Australian born, but has spent much of the 20 years of living in and writting about Malaysia. I reckon she married a local.

I've fairly gone thru the pictures in the book several times before... while watching tv or in between tiding up the table. But today i did managed to read it. It was indeed a good book! Haven't got to finish it coz the rain got heavier and i heard the wind whistled thru the sliding door.

And yes that kinda creeps me out... moreover, the wind chime from my neighbour's balcony jingled in crescendo!

I ended up curling in my bed with a torchlight by the bedside and Hubby's t-shirt on, hoping to be hypnotised to sleep by the sounds of the raindrops from the balcony.

My eyes were still blinking an hour later.

FROM A DISTANCE

Being a far, it was never easy for me, yet tolerable. I really miss him.

SIREH DIJUNJUNG

Tepak sireh pembuka kata,

disuara hasrat keluarga jejaka,

cincin di beri mengikat tanda,

besar hati pinangan diterima

Menyusun kata

mendulang hantaran

tumpang gumbira

mengiring rombongan

terpancar harapan

NEW PRIME MINISTER, new wings?

Well,.. I didn't really watch the perhimpunan "agong". But during the Earth Hour, I did turned on the TV to watch the news for a bit, to see how other people responded to Earth Hour...(ngelat sikit) There was a few slots on the perhimpunan. I saw Tun M entering the hall. He's back y'all! hihihihi...

Najib's speech was lil bit cynical, perhaps towards orang yang lantang or "nasehat" pada orang yg nak pergi supaya jangan nak melantang... I never wud understand politics. Najib mentioned, kita harus lar bersatu menangani segala isu.Dan jangan lar kita mengkritik secara terbuka, sebaliknyer berfikir secara dalam together ker gitu lar lebih kurang.

Did you noticed when Tun went up to the stage and every body was shaking his hand and welcoming him? Pak Lah even tried to gim him a hug. And it was so obvious Tun reluctant. Well,.. i can't blame him either... Apa ke halnyer KJ still there. Sah-sah terbukti bersalah. Maybe UMNO lil bit kecut to have KJ out of UMNO. He might form his own party. Hahahahahha!

Rafidah was in denial all this while. Ingat orang still suka dia. Konfidensi sangat! Tapi bila result announced terus hilang tak nampak batang hidung or cermin mata dia!

Yet to see how Najib leads. Six ministries will be merged to three. Here are more details about Najib's cabinet. Banyak sangat kementerian pun tak banyak improvement....

Photographers covering the 2nd day of the general assembly briefly stopped work in protest after they were told off for sitting in the aisles of Merdeka Hall where the debates were going on. The photographers, who has positioned themselves there to get a better view of the UMNO leaders on stage, were later allowed to remain sitting on condition that they did not block the delegate's view - ikhsan The Star

ESCAPADE

I'm packing for the trip tomorrow... Really looking forward for some fun in the sun... Krabi, here I come!!!! Here is where i'm gonna be staying... Looks cozy enuff to me.

REMINISCE

It was a "tradition" in my family to had a photo taken when me and my siblings were 6yrs old, in our kindergarten wear. Mine was, of course..in black and white. Mom had it printed enlarged and framed, and hanged on the wall in sequence,...the eldest to the youngest respectively. The frames are not the same. You can guess what year/erra was the photo taken by looking at the frames. Mine was obviously the most ancient!

I recently took it all down from the wall and had sent it for reshoot, edited and printed. It was all printed in black and white.

I still remember the day I took the photo shoot, way back in 1981. Taman Melawati had no photo studio at that time. Even the rubber plantation was still around at certain areas. The school transported us to Taman Bunga Raya by a chatered school bus. We had to take turns for the shoot. But I had a problem. They couldnt find a graduation hat that fits me. I then learned that my head is...BIG! (laughing out loud)

After several attemps, finally,.. a hat that's quite fits my "slightly" big head was successfully forced onto. My bestfriend, Miza was just the opposite. She has small oval head. The teachers couldn't stop giggling looking at both of us.

I was in the 2nd row, most left. Miza was in the front row 5th from left.
