Comfort Zone...

                                   بِسْمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ


people say...
to bring out the best in yourself, you need to get out of your comfort zone
well..lets talk about that..

I just realized that I never talk about my profession in here didnt I?
(as if anyone would want to know aziey oii~~)
sikpa..assume jak perasan byk org baca keh..hewhewhew

okay..it goes like this..since i graduated, i was unemployed for almost 4 months.. 4 months mind you!! 4 bloody months of doing nothing but being a full housewife which not practically a wife yet but doing the jobs that housewife does..yeahh...the cinderella of the house..thats me..hahaha

its not like i dont want to find any job..believe me..i was dying of boredom...and with no pocket money, no where to go and no new books to buy.. *sobs sobs sobs*
it was tragic...trust me... mom never gave pocket money during holiday..never.. you're on your own kiddo..hahaha
the thing is, i did try to apply for jobs in bookstores, restaurants and that kind of places while waiting for the real job to come knocking at my door..(as if it would come knocking without efforts la kan? -_-)
and i did got some offers..especially bookstore..which i was soooooooo estatic and deliriously happy..too bad, during that time, i dont have transport and license at all..
plus, it was almost a few months to my big sis wedding, so they told me to reject the offer, due to:
1. no one can work around your shift work hour
2. dont waste your time doing nothing
3. better use your free time help to prepare and organize the wedding and the hantarans...

well kids, thats the answer i get from ze big bosses...
with no license, what am i suppose to say? :(
i was heartbroken..really..coz one of the bookstore benefit was i get to bring back 2 books to borrow everyday!!! @_@
but then...reality kicks in..oh well

i was being rebellious after that..
sad maaa...bookstore with books..dream job i might say..haha

then, a few months after that, it was my graduation day, 1 month before big sis wedding...
so since everyone else was busy with wedding and classes and schools, only mom accompany me for my graduation this time...

and Subhanallah, on the day of my graduation, i got a phone call..from the company that I applied last time..(the company i'm with now :D)
Since they need me to come for the interview the next few days, I have to tell them that I was not around and asked if the date can be arranged to a different time when I'm back at my hometown. Alhamdulillah they agreed and the new date was decided after I'm back from my graduation.

Nervous? Heck yeah~
Graduation, job interview waiting...and oh, for my graduation, it was known that I would do something random on the camera while on stage..bahahahaahahaa...
my friends, they anticipated it! LOL
well, its not everyday you get to graduate and be silly dont you? :P
did it during my diploma last time..and now, for my degree... i was imagining different kind of silly scenarios in my head...
but in the end, due to the excessive beating of the heart that makes my ribs want to burst (okay, this was overrated /.\), i was only managed to locate where the main camera and smile with peace and waves like an artist after getting their trophies..muahahahhaa.. atleast half the lecturers on stage laugh at me..hahaha
and the best part, it was in the video recorded..but i didnt bought it..tehehee..

okay...Graduating in Bachelor Degree of Computer Science majoring in Multimedia Computing..sounds cool isnt it? (please say its cool.. /.\)
i still have no idea what kind of job i want to do...but since we learned about audio stuff, video and photography stuff, some 3D animation stuff...mostly i think i would end up being an animator (which sounds cool and i do love it!) or something along the production field (and i love it too..working with those audio's and video's and photos)...
the job interview that I got, honestly i dont even know what is the job or the job scope for it.. all i know it was some kind of IS executive thingy...
with no idea what the heck is that, i just went to the interview with tawakkul and Bismillah...

and mind you, that was my very very very first interview ever!(formally i mean)...
i was so nervous...very very nerve-wrecking and usually when i'm that nervous, i'll automatically smile and laugh for no reason to cover up my nervousness..and talk a lot!!! which i think gave out good impression to my boss now as they were saying i have a sunny attitude~ (yeah~ you go aziey! :P)
and Alhamdulillah, i was excepted and expected to work as soon as possible... (happy!!!! xD)

and turns out, I was working as a hardcore programmer! @_@"
i was like...ohh shooot!!!
and whats worse, they were using ancient programming language which i never heard ( i think everyone never heard) or learned at all!
and I was supposed to learn it as I go..
Syukur Alhamdulillah..eventhough all my colleague is chinese, they were very very helpful to me..and during the interview, there were 3 of us.. 1 guy and 1 more girl..turns out both of them have more than 3 years experience..while me, fresh grad.. >.<
and the other girl didnt make it..only me and that guy...
i guess, because for the 1st year,since we were still in contract basis, that guy(chinese as well) was being very very cold to me..even refuse to help me out when i asked him stuff i dont understand.. i was like.. -_- blerrghhh..whatever dude..
hahahhaaa... but then, i guess it was because he sees me as his rival for the permanent spot i guess..which both of us got..and Alhamdulillah, now we are quite close and he even loves to make fun of other people to me..gahh..that sarcastic guy..hahha

this job now, i was very very grateful..
my teammates, all of them were very helpful and they taught me alot..
and the best part,we all love everything that comes to food!hehehe..
especially our boss..she lovesss doing birthday celebration with cakes during our team meeting..
i learnt a lot, i grew up a lot...
there were tough times where i did messed up the database for everyone else (*cringed* i got depressed for 4 days due to that T_T) i dont know if they hate me or not..i hope not..wuhuhuhu..
rushing datelines, meeting customer, getting requirement specs...
sometimes its hard, but i feel comfortable here...
i love my team and my job...especially when my codes works like i want them to! xD
its hard being a hardcore programmer... you can't really decide when you going to finish your task.. one function can have up to 6 testcases to be tested, and not to mention the bugs that might come up from God-knows-where..and to fix it, sometimes need to do trial and error when you cant even locate where and what went wrong with it..but at the end of the day, when it work perfectly..the feeling was *heavenly~~~* BD

so you see, i am in my comfort zone now...
the team, the environment, the job, the tasks...
Alhamdulillah Allah made it easy for me when other part of my life is not always easy..especially dealing with my own blood relatives..but Allah did say, with hardship there will be ease right? :)

okay..thats a very very long rambling i did there...

the point is...
yesterday, one of my friend gave me a link of some jobs in the same field as mine, but in Miri...
under some plantation i think...
i know some of my friends do keep asking me, dont i ever feel like changing my job? Honestly no..coz i am comfortable here..i do..even last time, when that someone asked me to move over to his previous company,i rejected the offer..
now, the thoughts of trying for a new job kind of pricking in my head..
so i think i'll just try it out..see how it goes..the benefit and all..
then maybe...maybe i'll consider it..
coz they say, we need to get out of our comfort zone to grow isnt it?
lets see how this goes...
Insya-Allah, He knows better whats good for me...Amin~

Inflammations...

Polymyositis...

what the hell is that?
that is the thing i was diagnosed with few years back...

Polymyositis is a disease of muscle featuring inflammation of the muscle fibers. The cause of the disease is not known. It begins when white blood cells, the immune cells of inflammation, spontaneously invade muscles. The muscles affected are typically those closest to the trunk or torso. This results in weakness that can be severe. Polymyositis is a chronic illness featuring progressive muscle weakness with periods of increased symptoms, called flares or relapses, and minimal or no symptoms, known as remissions. 
 http://www.medicinenet.com/polymyositis/article.htm#polymyositis_facts 
I was admitted for more than 6 days..
in a foreign place..where no one knows me and no family around...
that was an absolute torture i tell ya.. *cringed*
one of the reason why I hate going to hospital for check up..incase i was being hospitalized again..
it was also the time when i didnt told any of my family members that i was admitted..
decided to lay low and not keep them worried since i was so eager to get out as soon as I can..which still the doctors(two specialists for my case mind you) still insist on watching my progress for my physiotherapy session..which didnt took much time as i was unable to do much by then..
and the reason why daddy was being a bit revengeful i guess, coz he also hide the fact that he was vomitting blood and being hospitalized not long after that..and died in the hospital while i have no clue what happen back home..until mom called me that eventful night..
i miss you daddy..and i'm sorry.. T_T

okay..back to topic...

So, this polymyositis..oh well, i've managed to keep it under control these few years...
having some ibuprofen with me around for when i needed it...
few years back,  was on prednisolone, which doesnt really help me much.. well it does helps in terms of putting the inflammation on hold but doesnt really help in terms of depression..coz man, that prednisolone really mess with ze brain... depressed? yaa...
so i preferred ibuprofen instead..which i need to scarcely took to keep it working..
but lately, the relapsed keep coming and going...and ibuprofen doesnt really help this time coz I'm getting frequent attack..

maybe due to lack of working out? 
why working out? well, i guess, physiotherapy does have some workout moves..but lighter version...
thats one of the reason why i started working out...but its getting hard even to keep my hands unshaky these days..and my legs, well, i even have trouble walking properly again...good thing people mistook it as clumsy.. :P

i kinda run away from the hospital the last time..
due to too much blood being drained from me for the blood tests..
they were waiting for me to do my muscle biopsy instruction back then..but i lied to the driver that i was okay to be discharged and left him to clean up the mess... muahahha... *evil me*

my lungs keep forgetting how to be one frequently these days...
most of the time, the lungs failure are sudden...which is why sometimes, when people talk to me, my voice suddenly become very small..and most of them would be mad at me when they can't hear me.. :(
i was trying hard to dull the pain inside which causes the low volume of voice i could projected at times..
oh well, its not like they know what i'm going through...
so, if anyone of you knows me that read this, next time when i suddenly become quiet and my voice became small, please dont be mad... i didnt mean to do it on purpose :')

okay...back to topic
since, the attack are too frequent and my ibuprofen was not helping this days, i think, maybe...
i would need to surrender myself to the specialist again..
ohhh the dread of dying of boredom in hospitals...
its killing meeeee...


well..i think thats all...

Pendosa...

                                              بِسْمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Assalamualaikum

agak lama tidak bertinta di dalam bahasa melayu..
bahasa kebangsaan...
disebabkan bulan ini bulan merdeka, aku merepek la sekejap dalam bahasa melayu kita.. n_n

tajuk macam heavy..tapi mukadimah merepek... -_-

okay...lets get serious.. (tercampur plak omputehnya) =_='

selama aku hidup 27 tahun ni (chewaahh), 
aku ingatkan bahawa banyak dugaan dan asam garam aku harungi..
aku ingat aku cukup kuat menghadapi semua ujianNya
aku ingat aku cukup ikhlas berserah kepadaNya
aku ingat aku cukup bersyukur kepadaNya

dari kekhilafan,
aku kembali ke jalan yg lurus
Alhamdulillah aku dberikan sebuah keluarga yg byk membantuku
Alhamdulillah aku dberikan sahabat2 yg solehah dan mengingatkanku
aku cuba untuk istiqamah
aku pelihara hati aku dari dkecewakan oleh mana2 lelaki yg ingin mendekati
kerana bagiku, telah cukup aku dikecewakan berkali2
sama ada dijadikan sandaran ataupun dicurangi
ya..aku rasa aku cukup kuat untuk menghadapi
dan aku sentiasa mengingatkan diriku bahawa aku cukup sifat untuk dijadikan isteri
dan lelaki2 itu semuanya rugi
ya Allah, betapa riak nya aku dikala itu

ya, aku riak..kerana tidak pernah aku merasa manisnya cinta
seperti yg sering aku pinta, yg sering aku doakan
seorang lelaki yg mahu hidup bersama ku bukan sekadar menjadikan aku sebagai teman wanita
seorang lelaki yg cukup matang, yg tahu apa yg dia mahu dan tahu tanggungjawabnya kepada bakal isterinya
sehinggalah Allah memakbulkan doa ku itu

Allah memberikan dia di dalam hidupku
dia memiliki semua ciri2 yang aku pinta
dia berjanji ingin hidup bersama secepat mungkin
dan aku merasa betapa indahnya cinta
kerana aku percaya ini adalah pemberianNya kepadaku
dan aku ingin menguatkan imanku dan mengawal nafsuku didalam sebuah hubungan yg halal
dan dia juga inginkan yg sama sepertiku

tapi aku alpa,
aku lupa..
ya..aku seorang pendosa..
aku berdosa kepada diriku..
aku berdosa kepada Allah...
aku berdosa kepada ayahku...

dan Allah ingin menyedarkan aku kembali
untuk kembali kepadaNya
untuk kembali ikhlas mencintaiNya

dan aku gagal disitu
aku gagal menerima qada dan qadarNya
aku gagal mengikhlaskan hati ku untuk redha kepadaNya
aku gagal untuk berserah kepadaNya
aku gagal kerana aku hanyalah manusia yg lemah

aku lemah...
dan aku hanyut didalam kesedihanku
aku berpaut pada cinta duniawi
aku gagal untuk melepaskan cinta yg telah lama aku dambakan
walau berkali-kali diri ini dibuang dan ditolak ke tepi
dia sudah tidak mahu akan diriku yg pendosa ini
tetapi aku masih merayu lagi

ya Allah,
maafkan aku...
dikala aku rasa bahawa aku cukup kuat,
Engkau tunjukkan betapa lemahnya imanku
Engkau tunjukkan betapa rapuhnya cintaku kepadaMu
Syukur ya Allah,
kerana Engkau masih memberiku hidayahMu
kerana Engkau masih memberiku petunjukMu
kerana Engkau masih menyayangiku

aku mengambil masa yg lama utk kembali kepadaMu
aku terlalu leka didalam kesedihanku
aku terlupa siapa diriku sebelum nya
ya, aku masih seorang pendosa
istiqamah itu sukar
aku akui...
dan aku masih merangkak untuk kembali kepadaNya
aku masih berusaha menjadi yg terbaik utk bakal imamku nanti
jika dberi kesempatan
aku masih berusaha utk mencari keikhlasan hati dan redha Ilahi

Iman tidak sentiasa berada di tahap yg sama
Ia perlu dibaja dan dijaga setiap hari untuk merasa kemanisan ibadah kepadaNya
dan Iman ku tidak la sehebat mana
Ilmu ku masih belum cukup 
dan aku masih berusaha untuk mencari sebanyak ilmu agama untuk diriku dan untuk aku sebarkan kepada yg memerlukan
aku seorang pendosa yg masih merangkak untuk kembali kepadaNya

dan aku sentiasa akan menjadi seorang pendosa
kerana lemahnya diriku sebagai manusia

Lessons yet to be Learned

بِسْمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Allah is indeed the most merciful of all

to say that I'm doing fine these few weeks,
kinda feel like a denial stage for me...
I have not been fine...
I am trying to focus myself solely to pleased Him
but I still have trouble in keeping my heart at peace

during these times,
my head does a lot of thinking
more lot than it used to


It finally dawned on me
about all that happen
the happiness, the heartbreak
it was all gifts that He gave to me
to answer my prayers to Him

Before, I always pray that
someday I would found someone who would love me
adore me, and treat me like the most precious person in his world
and he would marry me instead of just being in a relationship
and Subhanallah, He answered that prayer
right after I was feeling so terrible and down by my own sibling
I was so devastated being treated wrongly
and my imaan was being question at that point
I try my best to be patient and try to mend things eventhough i was not at fault

then, He lead me to him...
my heart was stirred i admit
I turned to Him
asking for His guidance not sure if it was the right thing to do
He eased everything between us
and he makes me feel like all my prayers have finally come true
he makes me feel like, finally I know what true love is supposed to feel
he makes me feel grateful that I can't stop being thankful to Allah for leading me to him
he wanted us to be in a halal relationship as soon as possible
he wanted to marry me for us to get closer to Allah and to pleased Him
Subhanallah, i have never felt so grateful than I ever was at that point

But as human, we get swayed easily
as the situation and financial condition makes us delayed our intention to get married
we continued our relationship waiting for the right time for us to proceed
We get more infatuated with each other day by day
I am feeling more happy than I ever was ever
I am feeling loved
yes, we keep reminding each other about Allah, prayers
and all that stuff
but deep inside, I guess we know that our heart was in love more towards each other than with Allah
Masya-Allah...
how easily our heart are swayed with love
ya Allah, please forgive our sins...

I know, I have made a mistake by letting him being my priorities
more than I should
and I know Allah loves me coz He again answered my prayers
I always prayed for me to have my heart filled with love only for Him and Rasulullah SAW more than anyone else
and i feel the distanced getting larger between us
and we keep having argument on petty stuff
up till the point where he reminded me that we should not be too consumed by our love for each other more than we did for Allah
and he was letting me go to let us both straighten our heart
may Allah blessed him
I know some says it was a wrong action for him to make
to let go of what we had just like that
I feel the same way too
and my heart still breaks each day because of that too

But I know, everything that happen
was Allah's plan all along
and i guessed, we failed His test
so He took back the beautiful thing we have
to make sure we came back to Him

Everyday, every second
I keep reminding myself to be sincere
to accept everything with open heart
but there was moment of weakness
where I would breakdown
coz I am only human
and I only can depend on Allah strength for me to get through this
it's the toughest test He ever gave me
for losing someone due to death, it gives me more peace
coz I know they will be safe with Allah
but for losing someone due to their decision to leave us,
it hurts in a different way, coz you know they are there, 
but you just can't be with them anymore
and you are not what you were to each other anymore
and that, breaks my heart every time...

May Allah ease my pain and make me stronger
May Allah forgive our sins
but I am still thankful, for He has given me the chance to feel the kind of love that makes it hard to let go of
Insya-Allah, He have better plans for us than we do for ourselves
May Allah keep me sincere and at ease

Learning...


isn't it funny?
how our mind and heart works?

its easy for us to adapt our life around someone new
someone that we love
every decision, every thoughts all revolves around that person you love
especially when that someone is someone you planned to live your whole life with
you start to think of your future together
you start to live each day with the thoughts of them around you
you start to end your day with the thoughts of them with you
basically, its easy for us to let someone in our lives and change the pattern of it...

but what's worse is,
when we have to stop living our life with the thoughts if them
it became really hard to remove them from our mind and our heart
each day passed by became empty
it feels like losing a very close bestfriend
someone that you share every second that you do
every second that you went through
someone that you share every thoughts before anyone else
and now, that person is gone
much worse, they don't give a damn about you anymore
suddenly, you lost your confidante
its like being paralysed
your mind just keep on repeating on the good memories
making it hard for you to move on
and your heart
keep on breaking pieces by pieces every single day

isnt it funny?
how easy they come?
and how hard for them to be gone from our mind?

or maybe it's just me
coz my mind tends to get lost in thoughts
of all the how?, why? ,when? and what if's?

true, when people said
our souls knows the right way to heal
but the challenge is from our mind
that wont stay silent during the healing period

sometimes, i feel the need to be around people
my family, my friends...
so i can stay grounded and be the old me they used to mock off
by reminding me how easy i am to be knocked down by people due to my own goodhearted nature
sometimes, i feel the need to be alone
to just break down and cry
cry my heart out till there is no more tears left
till the heart become numb of the coldness of the pain

sometimes...i just dont know anymore

but all i know,
I need to learn to survive
to heal and be well again
to be the girl that i used to be but maybe a bit more wiser
i am feeling worse than i ever had
for this person was someone i was getting used to live in the future
someone that i trusted to hold my heart
someone that i trusted with all my words
someone that i trusted with all my flaws
someone that i trusted to guide me to be closer to Allah
someone that i trusted to be the imam of my family
someone that i trusted to pick me up when i fall down

but now, all thats left was emptiness
a lost hope with nothing to hold on to anymore
someone i love but there's no more love left for me anymore
