Beautiful 2011

Alhamdulillah.

Today is 2^nd of February 2012, Thursday and it’s office hour. Dang!

I am fuelled to post this one. Second month of the year, only now I have the inspiration to wrap up my 2011.

I started my year last year by conquering the Mount Kinabalu, for the second time. First time I climbed it was way back on 2004, and I relied on my mental fitness. This time I was physically (quite) fit, but mentally not as strong as my first climb, but objectives achieved, that were, reached the Laban Rata before 4 pm and reached the top before 6 am. I collected both sweet and slightly bitter memories. People misunderstood me. It’s okay.

At the same year, I performed my first Umrah on March 11^th. Alhamdulillah Ya Allah. Dream came true. I bagged both sweet and bitter memories. I lost all memorable photos, thank you to that thief or maybe thieves. It was a wonderful experience and I can remember everything vividly, and everything is still fresh in my mind.

Back home after days in Saudi Arabia, I withdrew from the Engineering Master Class. I just couldn’t befriend with that course. I kept on thinking about forest, trees and woods. That’s just not me.

Came April, I faced new conflict…after seeking for sage advices and two bits’ worth’ from one, two…probably ten individual that I trust, I finally gave a positive respond. Welcoming June, and welcoming his proposal. We chose March 2012 (InsyaAllah). Hopefully everything goes smooth as planned. Alhamdulillah, he may not be the best and the most handsome guy in town, but he’s the person I need; pushed me to perform my shalat on tine and like to stop by at the mosque.

Ah don’t forget May, I reunited with two of my good friends, Soo and Iqtie. Labuan hasn’t changed. Oh except that, the chocolates prizes have rocketing. It was a fun reunion.

Ramadhan…Alhamdulillah, my attendance have improved. Thank you to Allah for bestowed me the willpower to attend Tarawih more often than I did last year, plus the courage to go to the mosque alone during Ramadhan.

I lost kilos. Wow.

2011 Raya was the sweetest one too, since this year, for the very first time all my married sisters gathered at my parents’ house during the malam takbir, in fact they even stayed for almost a week at our parents’ house. Alhamdulillah. Hopefully that isn’t the last.

Everyday isn’t a sunny day…I was robbed. I lost my October’s salary, handphone, laptop and bags. I miss my favourite bag so much. The good thing was; I wasn’t alone during the robbery. Alhamdulillah.

Say hello to Aidiladha…I went to Cemomoi, a Malay kampong. My first thought; Wah, rasa betul-betul macam dalam wayang Melayu. Cemomoi is such a beautiful and refreshing kampong. Everyone was friendly…and I pray to Allah, everything will continue to be like that.

Blissful November, I visited Cambodia and finally got the opportunity to step on Angkor Wat and had my first tuk-tuk experience. Angkor Wat is so magnificent.

December; I piled few kilos. I’m now 55 kg just 10 kg behind Edi. Hadoih! Plus, my L license was finally expired. Another hadoih!...

Alhamdulillah 2011 had been a wonderful and beautiful year. May Allah grant me another blissful and bless full year. Ameen.

P/S: This doa also goes to my parents, sisters, brother and friends.

Delighted!
