why MARCH is special?

Dari kecik lagi... bile tiba March, cam best jek. Dari awal bulan dah sibuk planning nak beli present ape... nak celebrate kat mana. 15/3 birthday Kak Ogy, 16/3 birthday arwah mak, 21/3 birthday arwah ayah & Harris adik ipar ku on 30/3 and tak lupa Uncle Azis on 25/3. And bila dah kahwin, bertambah lagi March babies - BIL's on 8/3 and FIL's on 10/3 (same with my friend, Sarah). Birthday kawan2 yg lain - Teejay on 12/3, Gjie 23/3... and the list goes on.

Walaupun mak & ayah dah takde, bila berada kat rumah tu.... terasa seperti both of them ada. Kami adik beradik telah berkumpul di rumah kenangan kami di Jalan Mariamah untuk Majlis Tahlil. Happynya rasa bile on 13 March, all SEVEN of us ada bersama2 bertahlil, makan ramai2 & celebrate birthday.

Alhamdulillah, Encik Azrey dah boleh lead tahlil

Kalau lead bab2 makan... mmg dari dulu :)

Dideep sumbat la tembosa tu byk2 sampai Ucu kembung!

(mulut org yg menyuap lagi over dari mulut yg di suap)

Saya dah start pening kepala dgn Ultraman baru nie!

And the next day on 14 March, birthday boy Harris pulak belanja kami kat De' Terrace BBQ & Steamboat. We had fun... more on sebab berkumpul ramai2, not just because kami makan banyak ;) 

Makcik busy memasak nih...

Every Second

mak, ayah... i'm missing you now & every second. I'm crying so hard in my heart. I have nobody... life is not the same anymore. I have different feelings now... different than before, different when you are around.

Al-Fatihah.

... our memories & all the prayers lighten up my life. I'll be ok. I wanna be better person. Allah please help me.

Sedang melayan The Weslife Show Live... melayan perasaan too.

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.

Raise Me Up

Kita SERUPA... tapi tak SAMA

Dapat berita from Awie pagi tadi, bak dia dah kembali ke rahmatullah. Time tu saya kat opis tgh bosan although byk keje. Terdiam sekejap... hilang focus... rasa lemah longlai. Dan pada saat menerima SMS itu juga, sebenarnya saya teringatkan arwah mak ayah (today is wedding anniversary mereka). Menangis depan pc keseorangan... kalaulah saya berada di samping dia, dapat saya jadi teman menangis dia & at the same time give support to her. Saya dah melaluinya... walaupun mungkin rasa tak sama. Apa2pun saya doakan moga dia kuat. Salam takziah utk Awie sefamily... harap tabah dgn dugaan ini. Al-Fatihah & doa yg terbaik buat arwah Haji Abu Abid. Semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat ke atas rohnya.

Pada arwah mak ayah tercinta, Al-Fatihah juga untuk mereka. Why until this moment, saya tetap rasa kehilangan tu mcm still fresh? Boleh teringat & terbayang2 depan mata. Tu yg kadang2 kalau boleh taknak ingat sbb nanti menangis berhari2 (tapi senyap2 & sembunyi2 la)

4 January yang semestinya kite celebrate sama2 satu family. Rindu rasa. Lain jek rasa bila dah takde mak ayah. Takde tempat mengadu... sob... sob...

...i LOVE you both!...

Last weekend, sempat pergi berdating with hubby gie makan Asam Pedas Botak (again, teringat arwah ayah - last makan sana time his birthday last year). Memang sedap asam pedas kat situ.

Tapi apa2 pun saya tetap makan kat situ atas sbb sotong goreng kering... walaupun rupa nampak plain jek. Rasa...... mmm... sedaaaapp!


Malamnya pulak, kami beramai2 telah ke D'Terrace Steamboat & BBQ Buffet kat Kolam Air (tempat lama Chismosa). Tempat baru. Nak compare food ngan harga... saya rasa ok. For me it's not all about food, yg penting dapat makan & kumpul ramai2. The kids had fun dapat masak2 sendiri. Sempat juga celebrate birthday my BIL & nephew. Happy birthday Fahmy, Zariff & Ishraf.
