Awal Muharram

I always miss the puasa sunat during awal Muharram, rasanya for the past 3-4 years .... biasalah orang pompuan.

Dah baca doa akhir tahun/ I almost forgot about if not a sms from a friend reminding me. Alhamdulillah. Ya Allah Ya Tuhanku, ampunlah dosa ku selama ini. Aku banyak berdosa pada mu. Aku memohon supaya Kau tetapkan imanku supaya tidak menyimpang daripada ajaranMu, meyimpang melakukan dosa, Kau kuatkanlah iman ku daripada tergoda dengan godaan Syaitan.

Doa Awal Tahun & Doa Akhir Tahun

Barangsiapa yang membaca doa awal tahun ini, insya Allah dirinya akan terpelihara daripada gangguan dan godaan syaitan di sepanjang tahun tersebut.

Doa Awal Tahun:

Maksudnya:

Allah SWT berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad SAW, ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabat baginda dan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Wahai Tuhan, Engkaulah yang kekal abadi, yang qadim. yang awal dan ke atas kelebihanMu yang besar dan kemurahanMu yang melimpah dan ini adalah tahun baru yang telah muncul di hadapan kami. Kami memohon pemeliharaan dariMu di sepanjang tahun ini dari syaitan dan pembantu-pembantunya dan tentera-tenteranya dan juga pertolongan terhadap diri yang diperintahkan melakukan kejahatan dan usaha yang mendekatkanku kepadaMu Wahai Tuhan Yang Maha Agung dan Maha Mulia.


Wahai Tuhan Yang Maha pengasih dari mereka yang mengasihi dan Allah berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad. Nabi yang ummi dan ke atas ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabatnya dan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Barangsiapa yang membaca doa akhir tahun ini, maka syaitan akan berkata:"Hampalah kami di sepanjang tahun ini".
Doa Akhir Tahun:

Maksudnya:

Allah SWT berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad SAW, ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabat baginda dan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Wahai Tuhan, apa yang telah aku lakukan dalam tahun ini daripada perkara-perkara yang Engkau tegah daripada aku melakukannya dan aku belum bertaubat daripadanya. Sedangkan Engkau tidak redha dan tidak melupakannya. Dan aku telah melakukannya di dalam keadaan di mana Engkau berupaya untuk menghukumku, tetapi Engkau mengilhamkanku dengan taubat selepas keberanianku melakukan dosa-dosa itu semuanya. Sesungguhnya aku memohon keampunanMu, maka ampunilah aku. Dan tidaklah aku melakukan yang demikian daripada apa yang Engkau redhainya dan Engkau menjanjikanku dengan pahala atas yang sedemikian itu. Maka aku memohon kepadaMu.
Wahai Tuhan! Wahai yang Maha Pemurah! Wahai Yang Maha Agung dan wahai Yang Maha Mulia agar Engkau menerima taubat itu dariku dan janganlah Engkau menghampakan harapanku kepadaMu Wahai Yang Maha Pemurah. Dan Allah berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad, ke atas ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabatnya dan mengurniakan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Long Time No See Gathering

The idea to have iftar gathering with friends of ex-KTKM was iniatited by Dakwanie. We planned to have it in a restaurant somewhere but I told Dakwanie to find a place convenient for all of us to go and to pray.

Then Radhi suggested Kerol's house and Kerol accepted without putting any excuses. We alsoe suggested pot luck since we dont want to burden the host.

No wonder he accepted to be the host, he wanted to show his brand new semi d house near the lake !! He he ... saja sakatlah. Very spacious and convenient ... especially for our next BBQ gathering kan, guys???? He he

I told them I would come with my empty tummy je ... he he. Dakwanie as promised brought her ikan sepat masin masak pucuk ubi goreng (which most of us thot ikan sepat pucuk ubi masak lemak) but Mon came later from Klang, Razif, wife and 2 sons came with mee goreng, Radhi came with ais cream potong, Nurul menumpang Radhi not with empty tummy but you know as mak buyung with full tummy (sori Nurul), Ruwai, hubby and 2 girls with ayam percik, Ani, hubby and a son with biskut mary pudding ke namanya, Liza, hubby and 2 girls entah ya bawak apa?? Roti john kut. Zaimy and Yati came with Secret Recipe's choc0late indulgence cake. Yummy.

Tuan rumah dok sediakan daging salai masak lemak, kari daging terung, ikan bakar cicah air asam and sambal belacan. Sedap. And me as usual hidung muka merah sebab pedas tapi nak gak makan pedas ...

Bestnya, mak orang bapak orang lupa anak bini, dok bersembang lama tak jumpa. Makan tak berenti, makan ais krim potong ala-ala Datuk Suriah belanja kononnya. By 9.45 pm baru kuar rumah Kerol.

Kerol, Nadia - thank you very much for being great hosts.

Roza, Sal, Nazra, Hamdiah, Azra, Cik Pah, Zun, Shiha - insyaAllah next year.

The Curve .....

Saturday, 20 September 2008

9.45 am - went to Ikea with a dear friend early in the morning to avoid the jam. When we reached the parking that were available was 2095 ... wah we were the early birds !! Bought some racks, blankets to suit our green/brown Windsir comforter set. Left around 11.00 pm.

6.00 pm - went back to The Curve to berbuka puasa at TGIF, luckily we did the reservation first. Upon arriving there, the parking available was only 495 !! We ordered Key West Grouper and Chicken & Shrimp Diablo Pasta with lemonade, coke and coffee. Hmmmm ... sedap sungguh, just nice for berbuka puasa, not as stuffed as we were at Hotel Singgahsana last week. Ohh, yeah we also ordered a plate of shrimp something, can't remember the name, ala-ala udang goreng tepung. Very fresh and crispy and succulent ... Sedappppp

Alahai, lupa nak ambik ambik gambar like Farhati always do ...

8.50 am - went to Jalan TAR and arrived there around 9.20 am - checked out Den Wahab, Omar Ali and KAS. I think KAS has better choices and tailoring. Then I bought some tudung and brooches. Thought that when we go early, Jalan TAR would not be so packed with people, I was so wrong ... so Anim and Mala, we have to go there sepagi nona next Saturday. Actually I dont have much to buy, it's just that Ramadhan is not complete without a visit to Jalan TAR !!! Reach home around 12.00.

12.15 noon - Alin called to me that she was at a pet shop at Uptown PJ, hovering excitedly about grey Persian at only RM680.

12.45 pm - Alin fetched me at home and went to the pet shop. Fell in love with all the kittens - white, grey, tabby orange etc. Finally, we picked a very cute 2 months old grey Persian and paid the deposit. Alin will pick up our new baby next Saturday. Cant wait to see her again. So cute, just like a furball, bulat2 and bulu penuh. Bestnya ....

Still thinking of the name - Kiki? Tushee? Lily? Tobby? Princess? Puteri? Keiko?

Any suggestion?

2.20 pm - went to the Courts at The Curve looking for new tv (yang kat rumah dah hilang colour!! the food at AFC no longer looks good and mouth watering, semua nampak biru and kelabu je ... he he). Bought a 32 in LCD JVC TV. I always wanted a Sony Bravia (S series of RM2499), but after comparing the features of a few branded 32 in LCD TV, I opted for JVC of which the features equivalent to Sony Bravia V series at the price of RM2299 and free ASTRO, Phillips blender and AIA personal insurance coverage of RM10,000.

I've been tagged

I've been tagged by Dakwanie. To put in the blog, 7 things about yourself, good things, weirdos, etc ....hmmmm

(1) I don't like pink ... never like pink. I used to be kinda tomboy, always active, panjat sana sini, lari sana sini, so basically I'm not the girlish type ... though I've lots of gowns during my childhood years ...??? mcmana tu ya? I'm also Olahragawati of my school for a number of years ... champion in 100m, 200m, 400m, long jump, 4 x100m, 4x 400m. That was years ago, dont think I can even run 100m in 20 second nowadays.

(2) Quite judgmental about people ... can't help it, some turn out to be true ... but some end up being quite a friend

(3) Love to eat very, very much ... love to try variety of foods. Love Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Westerns cuisines, all type of soups ....

(4) Don't like to befriend new people or mingle around with strangers etc at seminars etc

(5) Very manja but some would laugh if I say I'm the manja type ... kena control macho gak among colleagues and juniors ... he he

(6) Love at first sight .... M Nasir in Selubung, Brad Pitt in Legend of the Falls, KB (kawan Radhi ... though I don't know him or whether he's married or not at that time ... he he)

(7) Did a personality test of extrovert or introvert - my marks 25/25 ... when there's a tie, the person would be the introvert type. So, I'm introvert. Still remember the test during the Kursus Kerja Berpasukan in PD years ago, Zaimy, Nurul were so unsatisfied that I was in the fewer introvert group and adamantly trying to persuade the instructor that I should be in the extrovert group. Just because I'm a lawyer, doesnt mean that I'm an extrovert ....

My next target :

Farhati

Aezack

Hmmm sapa lagi dahhh, tak ramai kenkawan yang ada blog ...

Cat Hunting: Cuchun's girlfriend

Cuchun is the name of or family male Persian, cameo orange in colour, plump and fuffy with lots of long hair. Mak's companion during the days, mak's companion for bersembang, abah's partner utk tumbuk-menumbuk manja :).

Each time any of us came home, with or without salam, we would be calling for Cuchun ... without him the house would feel empty, no more calling of Cuchun buat apa? Cuchun nak makan ke? Cuchun gobot-gobot! Cuchun budak comel etc ....

The whole family including my nieces and nephews are all crazy about cats ...

Remember my Tiger? He's a grown "man" now, never want to stay home except nak makan and minum. He's always fighthing, degil betul, he's the one that would chase other cats to maintain his territory. Every time he goes out, Mak would say "Balik cepat-cepat tau jgn gaduh". We would be laughing hearing her said that but then after that we did the same thing !!!

Cuchun is now 8 months, sometimes rasa kesian seeing him alone, playing alone, jumping up and down alone, so we are now trying to find him a beautiful female Persian, a few months younger than him for his girlfriend, companion and mother of his future babies ... wahhhh ...

I want to find a blue Persian (grey), no more orange coz Tiger is orange, Niko and Niki - Najwa's and Ajiq's Persian cats are also orange. Always wanted a blue Persian ..

Separuh Perjalanan Kita ...

Today is the fifteenth day of Ramadhan. Have we really did better than last Ramadhan in terms of our ibadah? Last year I think I went to tarawih without fail until the arrival of the red flag. This year, alamak boleh dikira ... than dah red flag. Apa nak jadi ni Zura .... tapi kuih raya, baju raya dah siap ditempah, amal ibadat sepatutnya makin bertambah .... Hmmmmmm
