Siapa bersungguh-sungguh, dia mendapat!!!
-from novel ayat-ayat cinta by Habbiburrahman Shirozy

Wa man yattaqillaha yaj’al lahu makhraja. Siapa yang bertakwa kepada Allah maka Dia akan menjadikan untuknya jalan keluar.
-from same novel

I'm stuck reading the novel (uh oh). It's so page-turning lah! Within 3 days I read almost half the book akready (yea yea others would have finished it earlier, but I've kinda lost touch with the 'skills' of reading novels).

I'm so in love with the Arab language! How I wish I can read the Qur'an and understand the meaning, without needing translations...

Nak belajar Arab... :( Ust Sakinah, Liyana, Kak Syazwani, Diyana tolong ajar boleh? Setakat biasa-biasakan cakap Arab ngan kita bila jumpa pon ok, takyah nak sit down together and belajar from book...

A couple of times I see Arab classes in the newspaper or hear it from friends, and I soooo wanna join. Unfortunately, I dunno eh, macam tak dapat commit larh...

I wanna be like Fahri.. Put up his whole life planning in his room... Me? I don't even know what tests/assignments I have due next week if Ad doesn't tell me!

Gosh, there's so much I wanna better myself in. Camne eh? Where to start?

I kinda feel that these days I'm do things because I'm asked to, and not because I want to. It's different if you do things with passion, with keredhaan..

Sometimes pulak, I really wanna do something but I keep procrastinating it, "Nanti lar, nanti lar..."

Rasa macam nak push pause button to everything, reorganise and then play again. Or rather, i should say 'record'. Caus everything we do is somewhat 'recorded' and will be 'replayed' to us in the hereafter...



I really enjoy Ust Fathurrahman's Faraid class. Not only is he funny, his explanation is also very clear with support from al-Qur'an and hadiths (sometimes). And he actually summarised most part of Faraidh in a single paper that really helps us in our revision. Hehe, spoonfed ehk. Really, I compare his lesson with Ust Saifuddin's (sry Ust...) lesson, I feel that I learnn so much more in Ust;s Fathurrahman's class. Simple and easy to understand with loads of examples and practices that you have the numbers at the tip of your fingers!

I'm loving DPIA... I really value the lessons taught. (Though I must say I really dread the tugasan and exam... Menyetresskan gilerr okeh!)



Oh oh, by the way, helped Fityan's kendarat last night. First time beb aku jadi kendarat and Liyana of all other jobs you can give me, you pot me responsible for serving the pengantin!!! Initially ok, since I didn't foresee pape ah. Just that Liyana says it's a critical job. Ok... Then Ust arrived and told me, "Awak jangan pulak tertumpah lauk kat pengatin!" Argh, panic! Wild imagination!! What if this... What if that...

When the pengantin arrived, lagi lah panic aku! I expected someone to give me instructions what to do and when no one did, there's only 1 person I can ask, that is someone who's married, none other than: Ust. Kwang3!

In the end, Zul carried the food in the dulang while I followed him from behind and transferred the food on the table. I must add: supppppppppeeeeeeeerrrrrrr slooooooowly ok. Calm je, padahal dup dub dup dub, keringat membasahi serkup sume. Then straightaway I blah.

Then I kept looking at the pengantin. Why are they not eating yet nih??!! Tried to think back and realised I did not put the fork and spoon. Panicked, ran to the back, asked Ust, panicked, ran to the front and realised fork and spoon nye dah ade lah...

After that I went back to where I'm supposed to be: the desert table and carried on my job. Saw the pengantin jalan-jalan and back to the dining table for pictures. And I realised, I haven't cleared the table!!! Dush. Quickly grabbed a dulang, asked Kak Ain to follow me and when one group left from the phototaking sessin, Kak Ain and I went to clear the table.

Oh know what? Now then I realise I did not put any drinks for the pengantin. OoOoOopps. Nasib tak tercekik ke terbegik ke!

Reminder to all: you either put someone experienced or someone who's married to be responsible of serving the pengantin. I AM NEITHER. Gosh, *smacks forehead* paiseh tauu.. It was the one day they become raja and permaisuri and they didn't even get any drinks?? Cekik darah nye Marliyana. Lol.
