wedding to come

2 months to go before i end my status as a single lady..

so near yet so far..time is ticking, not ticking, but running and crashing all the way to 8th of march 2009. so it is near.. but far in the sense that whether i am... or i am not... too many things undone but nothing to do... pre marriage means draining your money from the pockets and pouches you have, plus ppl around u, and yet u still need more..  things like "i have to that", "i dont need to rush on this", "this must be done by tomorrow", "what else do i need to do, ppl help meee!!!!" are normal.. but this maddening syndrome and voiceless screaming are just inside my head, while i am enjoying myself to heaven. by drinking coffee, blogging and such, that dont even contribute in solving the unsolve! 

anyway, this is the 'done' part, :p (quite proud of myself, especially in this puzzling craze mind!)

so, so far, the still 'undone' are dewan, hiv test(tomorrow would be on the 'done' list), submitting the nikah form to pejabat agama islam selangor, and the wedding day itself!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..cant wait 

can i have another one like this???

a great girlie weekend..molie( an old fren of mine from sktbp) came to my house. we went shopping at nilai 3 for decoration stuff for my hantaran..whewww..spent about 5 hours there..and i had my first air jambu batu with asam shake..wow! best giler..

we went back home..started excitedly unpacking the plastic bags.. and....till midnight..we managed to finish everything..hehe..

o yeah.. on the first night, we talked and talked till 430 am..hehe catching up those missing years..

to molie, come n lets do facial..n watch midnight's, and others.. 

of being single again

yesternite, after a lil bit of thinking, i think, for the final 2 months before my wedding, i want to be single again. not as in looking for new boyfriend or flirting around. but single in the sense that a time for myself, a time for me to feel free from a relationship (im not into lepak2 wif guys..) to hang out with my girlfriends, doing crazy stuff.. and all..

ive been in this relationship, with the same guy for almost 5 years, starting a year after finishing my high school till this very second. so, before spending time and life together with him for the rest of my life (insyaallah), i guess, i do need my single moment.

aja aja!

microteaching

15th December - 24th December 2008 marked the two weeks of immeasureable length of tiredness, full of boring trainers delivering interesting issues, creating glass puppet out of boredom,  and teaching a class of people who are more or less the same age as my dad, and were his colleagues once upon a time! as the practical part of the training.. 

So, the training, known as pedagogy training is designed for the new teaching staff. It has 4 parts, from OBE(1) to art of teaching(2) to assesments and evaluations(3) are among the useful topics taught. 

The fourth part would be the practical, which is microteaching(4). we were given 1/2 hour to teach any subject, by applying the theories taught in the previous lessons ( except for the 3rd part). 

okay, so for me, im bored to death listening to all the subjects that were very technical in nature.. like landing gear, vb.net, helicopter, automotive, projectile motion, etc..hey, im an english lecturer, how am i going to understand all those within 1/2 hour..goshh

so, my turn came, and i taught them poetry: brief history and 4 simple poetic devices (rhyme, simile, metaphor & personification). thats it, with few examples, and afterward, in groups, these students had to create a poem, using any of the poetic devices taught. before the class ended, they had to recite their poems.. and i can see that, everybody was laughing and enjoying the class so much. 

later on, i asked the trainer who was evaluating us, on my peformance. he answered " u r above average" 

YAY! thats cool and great! - for a young and inexperienced lecturer . and a week later, one of the technical lecturers said that i was good because he still remember the poetic devices taught though it was the first time for him to join a poetry class.. hehe thats even better for me!  

this is one of the poems from the poetry class by En. Razif:

poetic devices: Metaphor

title: You Are

You are the rose in a sea of thorns

you are the sun that shines when I'm down

you are the light that glows in the dark

you are who I am in love with

eventhough we are apart

you are always in my heart

24th Dec 2008, IOI resort

Along my big sister

the outside of my house is raining..drizzling to be exact.. the day is nothing near to gloomy, though the sun rays are blocked by the countless clouds moving slowly.. from afar, i could hear the quranic recitation on air, from masjid at taqwa.. the atmosphere is SERENE..

enjoying this quiet moment very much, i started my day by surfing the best hotel deal for my coming honeymoon, shouting at my beloved on the phone over something unpleasant (yesternite's), putting on my wedding ring, and admiring its beauty on my finger..( hehe), and updating myself on my friends' ongoing..by checking their fs's profile..

i came across along's fs account.. then continuing to her blog..

missing her like crazy.. 

along is a good friend of mine from iiu. i got close to her during my 3rd yr or so.. we used to walk and talk non stop about everything till she reached her mahallah, n i will continue my journey to my mahallah..

on the campus ( we were in different departments), i would call her to have lunch together, before rushing back to our work. or if we are free, we'll sit there, up to few hours..killing the time..

after pgg meeting, the usually ended around 11 +.. we will have a round of teh tarik at hs cafe, along with other few friends..( around 6 -7 ppl).. and had a good chat, discussing over issues, generating ideas on how to make pgg and things around us into a better place or condition.

she loves to read, and read..all those motivational books, (the exact opposite of me..heh), and she would suggest me to read them as well. which i never did! bad bad me

in one occasion, she invited me to join her to this special kids school in gombak.. we went there, n she was so excited to see them, mingling with them, trying to understand them as they are, taking their pictures and lots of it.. i could see the passion, the sympathy and the love inside her eyes..which made me happy just to be there.. 

i just hope we can hang out together for the last time before i end my bachelor status.. and listen to all her positive talks..
