Alhamdulillah, 28/5 ni genaplah 6 tahun kitorg bersama..
Pahit, manis, masam, kelat dah macam2 dilalui.
Walaupun masih muda usia perkahwinan kami compared to others,
hopefully ikatan ni berpanjangan dan diberkati Allah sentiasa..
Anyway, gbr kahwin 6 tahun lps takde yg digital.

Ni ada satu madah favourite, terjumpa kat web 3-4 years lepas.
Tak ingat sourcenya..
Love it very, very much. 
Just wanna share & keep it as a reminder... 
Teraaaamatlah pjgnya, but really worth utk menghayatinya...
p/s: sesape yg tak jiwang tu bolehlah buat-buat tak nampak madah pujangga tu ye.. 
| Quote: | Kata pujangga
perempuan bagaikan angin
lembutnya melenakan
ributnya menggusarkan.
Adakalanya mereka seperti ibu
menyaji kasih, menghidang sayang
adakalanya mereka seperti anak
ingin dibelai, minta dimanjakan
adakalanya mereka seperti nenek
berleter seadanya, merungut semahuannya.
Namun,
merekalah insan yang terhampir
teman kembara dalam kehidupan yang sementara ini.
bahagia dan derita kita sangat berkait dengan mereka
Psst....
Tiba-tiba isteri merajuk
pandai-pandailah memujuk
buka telinga, tajamkan pendengaran,amati suaranya
teliti dengan hati yang terseni
rasional atau emosi ?
andainya emosi, belailah emosi itu
jangan cuba dihadapkan secara rasional
kerana sidia tak akan terdaya
mengunyah hujah,berilah walau seribu sebab
lengkap dengan perangkaan statistik
atau dokumen saintifik
berserta dengan beberapa affidavit
dia tetap melulu kerana fikiran sudah berjerebu
Dalam situasi ini
fikiran telah ditawan perasaan
sebaiknya, perhaluskan kata, perindahkan bahasa
jinakkan perasaan, hadiahkan senyuman.
Masih gagal ?
cuba gunakan sentuhan
semarakkan belaian.
Masih gagal juga ?
Tunggu saja rajuknya reda
emosi isteri
bagai riak-riak air dalam cawan
jangan digoncang...... buat selamba
lambat laun, gelombang akan tenang
air dicawan akan kita minum jua.
Tapi awas.....
kalau ternyata, rajuknya berfakta
masamnya berdata, geramnya berilmiah
marahnya ada prima facie
ini rajuk taraf tinggi namanya
perlu ditangani berhati-hati
kalau ternyata benar,apa salahnya kita terima
mengaku lalu berjanji serta berikrar
"Sayang abang tak ulang lagi "
katakan " Sayang....abang alpa "
bisikkan " Darling.. I lupa.."
hulurkan tangan, pinta kemaafan
pendekatan kasanova, tapi hati suci
Rajuk isteri seperti mangga muda
perisanya masam
tetapi...
kalau kena cicahnya
enaknya akan terasa.
ingat, api yang panas, padam oleh salji yang dingin
Arghh...
tiba-tiba isteri merungut
malah kadangkala agak mengugut
minta aksesori serta perabut
minta Villa yang tersergam indah
atau mahligai di lereng bukit
sedangkan kita bukan Shah Jehan
yang mampu membina Taj Mahal buat isterinya
tetapi isteri pula, persis Nur Jehan
yang meminta petanda keagungan cintanya
Katanya " Seabadi permata....
segermelapan intan " ...
sedangkan ditangan kita
cuma cincin tembaga.
Aduh...
peritnya mengukur cinta
dalam ukuran mayam atau menimbang setia
menerusi Bursa Saham papan utama
kasih isteri, turun naik
mengikut kadar tukaran wang asing.
Tiada guna menyesali diri
diakan dulu pilihan kita ?
semasa mekarnya
dia dihargai, dipuja-puji
dia kini sudah menjadi ibu
pada anak-anak kita
sudah takdir...
permata yang dipilih
perlu digilap semula.
Namun
putus asa jangan sekali
terimalah dia, dengan redha.
justeru isteri
pada hakikatnya
adalah bayang-bayang suami
wanita adalah tulang rusuk yang bengkok
luruskan dengan berhati-hati bertegas tapi jangan berkeras
lembut tapi jangan reput.
Katakan RM bukan segala-galanya
lalu pada saat yang kudus
setelah bersolat bersama
bisikkanlah " Duhai isteriku...
marilah kita bina perkahwinan ini
dengan cinta yang sejati
marilah kita kutip rezeki
dengan keringat tersuci
kita cari harta, tetapi itu bukan segala-galanya
padamu isteri,istanamu, di hati ini
padamu sayang
kalung cintamu, di jiwa ini."
Puuuh...
Akan tiba masanya bila 'isteri' di hati tapi kurang di mata
usia meningkat kecantikan tergugat
dulu yang kita lihat mulus kini beransur pupus
betis, tidak lagi bunting padi
pipi, bukan lagi pauh dilayang
apakah dengan itu akan berkurang cinta kita ?
jika berkurang, nyatalah cinta kita
selama ini cinta di mata bertapak di body
tapi jika cinta tetap kekal malah semakin bertambah
ertinya cinta kita di hati, berpasak di budi.
itulah cinta sejati.
Namun tidak salah
di samping menyanjung budi,
kita merampingkan 'body'
kalau ada kesempatan
ajaklah dia bersenam, amalkan puasa sunat
tapi ingat niat kerana Tuhan
bukan kerana ingin kuruskan badan
tapi Tuhan Maha Penyayang
Dia pasti membantu isteri yang memburu keredhaan suami
tak salah kalau mohon kesihatan, kecantikan dan kecergasan
sama-samalah merampinkan badan
yang terlebih dikurangkan
jangan sesekali mencemuh apalagi menjauh
apa gunanya membandingkan isteri dengan perawan.
Bukan masanya lagi merenung dara
tapi kini saat menghitung dosa
lalu ajaklah isteri sama-sama menambah bakti
moga-moga cinta kita kekal ke hujung usia
di dunia ini dan di akhirat nanti
itulah yang dikatakan
hidup berdua, 'selepas' mati pun bersama.
Uhhh....
Kekadang isteri mengamuk
dengan ombak prasangka dan taufan cemburu
Apa bukti setiamu suami ?
Apakah tandanya hanya aku di hatimu ?
kekadang disergahnya kita
ketika keringat masih membasah
baru menjengah pintu rumah.
Ketika itu nilailah diri
mungkin kita berdosa dengan Tuhan
atau bersalah dengan insan
mungkin banyak kezaliman dan penganiayaan
yang telah kita lakukan
Lalu datang teguran, amaran dan peringatan
secara 'indirect' dari Tuhan
hadapkanlah diri ke cermin hati
kaji diri satu persatu
kalau liar, berhentilah
kalau berdosa, bertaubatlah
Sebaliknya jika ternyata isteri yang melulu
nasihatkanlah baik-baik
bukan senang nak senang
ingatlah mustika kata dalam kitab-kitab tua
suami yang bersabar dengan isteri yang jahat
akan mendapat pahala Nabi Ayub
atau ingatlah pesan Sayidina Umar al-Khattab
ketika didatangi seorang suami yang dileteri isteri
"Bersabarlah, kerana sesungguhnya isteri telah banyak
membantu kita. Dia yang menyelamatkan kita daripada amukan nafsu.
Dia yang membantu menjaga makan minum kita.
Dia yang mencuci kain baju kita
Dia yang membantu membersihkan rumah kita...
lalu apa salahnya kita bersabar dengan sedikit kerenahnya ? "
Marilah sama-sama kita tabur secubit salji pada segenggam api.
Telah banyak kita dengar cerita keruntuhan, kisah perpisahan.
Marilah kita suburkan kembali pohon perkahwinan ini
walaupun sudah berdekad-dekad usianya
Institusi ini adalah kubu terakhir kita.
Marilah kita pertahankan bersama si dia.
si diaku, si diamu
cinta kita jangan mati dalam arus dunia siber,
Biarlah skrin-skrin internet atau inranet memaparkan
yang indah-indah pantulan seri rumah tangga kita.
Bicara ini diakhiri dengan satu coretan
yang mungkin boleh diguriskan pada kad hari lahir isteri
atau kad ulang tahun perkahwinan
atau surat biru yang ingin kau utuskan padanya...
Atau kau pahatkan saja di halaman hatimu
pada malam nanti :
Aku hanya seorang suami
yang menerima setulus hati
seorang isteri.
Janji yang termeterai
di akad nikah kita musim yang lalu.
Salam kuhulur
buat menyapa hatimu nan luhur.
Bersamalah kita harungi
derita yang datang.
Bersatulah kita tempuhi
nikmat yang bertandang.
Denai perkahwinan
pasti dihujani air mata.
Biar kita rasa: rupanya syurga itu
sangat tinggi maharnya.
Isteri...
tidak kutagih setia, sesetia Hawa.
Atau kerinduan menggila Laila
yang sangat dalam.
Terimalah kehadiranku
di sudut tersuci di dalam hatimu.....
seorang isteri |

Flashback: Commonwealth Games Fever (15-26 March,2006)
|
|
Even though Commonwealth Games XVIII kat Melbourne ni dah pun berakhir,
baru ada kesempatan nak upload gambar2 masa berlangsungnya games tu.
Since my hubby is a sport fan, so mmgle dia bersemangat waja nak explore all the games venues.
He said:"Beli tiket tak penting, yg penting ada gambar Komanwel." 
Anyway he was very lucky that he finally got the chance to go to MCG for
the grand closing ceremony for FREE.
The ticket would cost him AUD350 !!
Kitorg ni tgk kat rmh je lah..
Ada gak kwn offer another ticket, tapi tak kuasalah nak mengangkut bebudak ni ke MCG.
Anis tanya gak, ayah kat mana (masa siaran langsung tu).
So, I told her , ayah ada kat stadium dlm tv tu lah..
After abt 20 mins of the event, she asked me: "Mana ayah ni mama?? Tak nampak pun?"
He..he..he..
Sekrg ni tgh shopping fever brg2 komanwel games lak..
Just imagine all tshirts dilelong murah till $10 (retail price $30-60)!!
Mug set, $3 (before $15), towel -$5 (before $20) dan mcm2 lagi..
Baru2 ni kitorg gi borong 30++ t-shirts, towels, mugs for souvenirs utk family kat M'sia.
Mmg puas hati!!

Chicken Pox
|
|
Kalau ramai org kat fp ni tgh demam lomo.
Budak2 kat rmh ni tgh demam chicken pox.
Memula Anis kena 2 minggu lepas.
Baru2 ni Aiman pulak kena..
Aiman kena lagi teruk, abis muka, kepala .. 
First 2 days, demam mlm2..
Asyik terjaga je..
Dahle tak nak mkn ubat, tak nak sapu ubat..
Pening mama.. 
Hopefully lepas ni ayah tak kena pulak..
Kalau tak..hmm..lagi le pening...
Ari ni dah nampak ok sikit..
Hopefully tak lama lagi fully recover.
| Quote: | What Is Chickenpox?
Chickenpox is caused by a virus called varicella zoster (say: var-uh-seh-luh zas-tur). People who get the virus often develop a rash of spots that look like blisters all over their bodies. The blisters are small and sit on an area of red skin that can be anywhere from the size of a pencil eraser to the size of a dime.
You've probably heard that chickenpox are itchy. It's true. The illness also may come along with a runny nose and cough. But the good news is that chickenpox is a common illness for kids and most people get better by just resting like you do with a cold or the flu. And the really good news is that, thanks to the chickenpox vaccine (say: vak-seen), lots of kids don't get chickenpox at all. Kids who do get it, if they got the shot, often get less severe cases, which means they get better quicker.

| Quote: | AYAT-AYAT SHIFA
Imam Abul Qasim Qushairi telah dilaporkan berkata:" Seseorg antara anakku jatuh sakit hingga hampir maut. Di waktu itu daku bermimpi bertemu Rasulullah s.a.w dan daku pun beritahu hal anakku. Baginda s.a.w berkata:" Mengapakah tidak kamu ambil berat ayat-ayat syifa'? Mengapa tidak kamu amal ayat-ayat itu dan memohon kepada Allah disembuhkan?". Setelah diteliti (Al-Quran), maka daku temui ayat-ayat itu pada 6 tempat, seperti berikut:
1) At Taubah - surah 9 : ayat 14
2) Yunus - surah 10 : ayat 57
3) An Nahl - surah 16 : ayat 69
4) Al Isra' - surah 17 : ayat 82
5) As Syu'ara - surah 26 : ayat 80
6) Al Fushilat - surah 41 : ayat 44

The photo that made she won
|
|
My youngest sis told me once that she won a 2nd place in photo competition organised by Red Cross Committee, RCSI.
I've never got the chance to see the photo.
Yesterday, I tried to find the photo by browsing thru the web.
She's not really into the photography hobby but she really have the hidden talent inside her.
Although it was a minor competition, congrates E'an!
The details abt the competition can be found here:

While the image below is taken from this url:

| Quote: | Factory Outlets; Malaga, Spain.
I can’t seem to tear my eyes away from this captivating scene of a happy family. Whilst other people hectically shop in this factory outlet area, these 3 brothers are simply enjoying the time soaking themselves with little fountain in the middle of the pedestrian walk. Fear, hunger and desperation for basic necessities are so far-off from their conscious mind. Born in a free country, being taken care of and protected by people who love them…carefree! In stark contrast to the fate of children of war or poverty-stricken countries, who dread waking up to each petrifying day, not knowing what lies ahead. Miserably they have to fight their own battle to survive. Till when will the war, terrorism and child-labour go on? Because until then these innocent kids will suffer. Aren’t we hoping they can taste a sip of happiness like the kids in this photo…?

The 2nd photo is also one of her work I admired.

A Special Tribute Buat Mak & Ayah
|
|
Especially for mak & ayah,
No words can express my love and appreciations!!
| Quote: | | Ya Tuhanku, ampunilah aku dan ibu bapaku, dan kasihanilah keduanya sebagaimana kedua-duanya mengasihaniku sewaktu kecil" |
| Quote: | Dan Kami wajibkan manusia berbuat baik kepada kedua ibu bapanya; ibunya telah mengandungnya dengan menanggung kelemahan atas kelemahan dan menceraikan susunya dalam masa dua tahun; bersyukurlah kepada-Ku dan kepada kedua ibu bapamu; dan kepada Akulah tempat kembalimu.
(31:14) |
| Quote: | Dan Kami wajibkan manusia berbuat baik kepada kedua ibu bapanya; ibunya telah mengandungkannya dan telah melahirkannya dengan bersusah payah.
Sedang tempoh mengandungnya berserta dengan tempoh menceraikan susunya ialah dalam masa tiga puluh bulan. Setelah ia sampai ke peringkat dewasa dan sampai umur empat puluh tahun, berdoalah ia:
Wahai Tuhanku, ilhamkanlah daku supaya bersyukur akan nikmat-Mu yang engkau kurniakan kepadaku dan kepada ibu bapaku, dan supaya aku tetap mengerjakan amal salih yang Engkau redhai;
dan jadikanlah sifat-sifat kebaikan meresap masuk ke dalam jiwa zuriat keturunanku. Sesungguhnya aku bertaubat kepadamu, dan sesungguhnya aku dari orang Islam yang tunduk patuh kepadamu.
(46:15). |

Mother's Day
|
|
Yesterday was mother's day..
It was a normal day like other days..
We're not the kind of people who celebrate any special days like MOthers' Day or etc..
The gloomy day passed with lots of sleep and a short visit to a friend's house
(nearly into winter mood)
One of Anis's school activities was making a special card for Mum.
Last Friday, she gave me the card.
The front page was a heart decorated with colourful and assorted shapes of pastas.
And inside the card was her hand written words,
" I love u, mum"
The card was not a surprise coz I've been receiving it every year since her kinder and child care days...
Although it was simple, yet it's the thought that matters..
Having such a card from my 5 y.o daughter was really a big gift.
(Although tulisan dia ada yg senget-senget dan ada yg terbalik2 )
Besides the card, we also received an invitation to attend their weekly assembly.
Parents are very welcomed and encouraged to attend it every week.
However, I barely could attend it every week due to my regular meeting with my s/visor at the same day.
Today, I decided to go, although it means that I may be late for my meeting.
And guess What??
The Arabic class (which Anis attend as LOTE~ Language other than English) presented
a special song to the MUMs!!
There she was with her friends, wearing a special crown, singing, dancing (ala2 gelek Arab).
Leaded with her Arabic teacher, Ms. K'tar, they did a splendid job!
Although I couldn't understand the meanings of the songs, it really touched my heart..
All I could hear was "Tactic, tactic, ya Ashour, Tactic, tactic, ya Ashour" , repeatedly.
I felt like crying..  and very, very PROUD !!!
The hall was full of mixed emotions, proudness & happiness!!  
And the highlight was, after they finished the songs.
The children were asked by the teacher to crown their mother with the 'crown'.
Anis's eyes were searching for me
And she did found me and placed the crown on my head!!
I'm very glad that I was there!! 
It was an unforgettable and a very proud moment for me!!
Finally, each of the parents were given a flower ..
Such a pity that I didn't bring my camera along..
Luckily my friend got it recorded in her handycam..
The attached photos are however irrelevant to MOthers' Day.
These photos are Anis's art work using Paint.
Purely made by her own, without our help

Dah lama nak tambah entry abt Anis's first day at school.
Sistem kat Aussie ni, 4 yo for kindergarten and the real school starts at 5 yo (prep class).
Before ni the dependents of students have to pay the school fees as other international students.
Just imagine, the fees was AUD5500 per year for a child!! 
Alhamdulillah, starting from this year, we're exempted from paying the fees.
Anis was very excited to go school & Aiman too!!
Kenalah belikan uniform utk Aiman jugak!
Pity for Aiman coz dia tak dpt masuk for 3 yo kinder coz tak cukup umur lagi!!

Moreland Kindergarten to Moreland Primary School

SYdnEY TRIP
|
|
Entry kali ni bertujuan utk mengelap semua habuk2 kat fotopages ni..
Semlm baru first time try meng'edit2' gambar.
Puas hati akhirnya berjaya gak update fotopage ni! 
This entry is about our trip to Sydney sempena Easter Break
Melb-Wodonga- Canberra-Sydney.
Our last trip to Sydney was about 3 years ago.
Masa tu Aiman still baby plus & gi pun ngan keta buruk.
This trip was definitely 100X much much better than the last one.
Special thanks to Tini & Faizal atas sudi menumpangkan kitorg yg ramai ni bermlm di Wodonga.
Tak lupa jugak buat En. Sharifuddin for the yummy lunch at his house at Canberra.
Nasib baik masa tak mengizinkan kalau tak mesti Anis & Aiman dah terjun swimming pool!
And last but not least, to Ida & Amir for the great transportation!!
TQ so much!
First photo tu is a compilation of gbr2 kat Cockington Green Garden, Canberra.
Konsep garden tu are miniature things, comel2 & kiut2 semuanya.
Miniature trains, house, football stadium, famous landmarks all around the world.
Jenuh mengejar Aiman yg over excited tgk miniature trains    
Sampai kena marah dgn org kat situ.
| Quote: |
Where it’s the little things that count!
Cockington Green Gardens offers its visitors an experience you will not find anywhere else. Venture into this delightful and fascinating display of meticulously crafted miniature buildings set within beautifully landscaped gardens to make your Canberra visit complete.
Created by Doug & Brenda Sarah Cockington Green Gardens is a family owned and operated attraction, with four generations involved it’s operation of over 25 years.
Opened to the public in 1979, Cockington Green is one of Canberra’s landmark attractions, being a winner of an Australian Tourism Award and many local tourism industry awards in this time.
The park is constantly growing with the popular addition of the International display area, which complements the original English Village and its beautifully established gardens.
Whilst in the park, visit the Rose Room indoor exhibition, featuring ‘Waverley’ a 34 room Dolls House, enjoy a coffee in the Parsons Nose Garden Café, or bring a picnic lunch. While littlies can be entertained in ‘Playtown’ or a favorite for all being the Miniature Steam Train ride, which encircles the International Display.

2nd photo is arnd Sydney Opera House & Harbour Bridge.
Puas hati dpt capture the view of Opera House during night time 
Anyway, tak dpt ambik byk gbr masa mlm coz Aiman dah tidur & bateri kamera lak abih!
The 3rd photo is about The ROCK:
| Quote: | The Rocks, a 19th century village hemmed in by Sydney Cove, Campbells Cove and Walsh Bay, lies in the shadow of the southern end of the Harbour Bridge.
This is the birthplace of modern-day Australia, Captain Arthur Phillip having settled here in 1788. From this,
Just across Sydney Cove from the Opera House, The Rocks district is a must for visitors to Australia.
Here, buildings exuding the country’s historic past combine with today’s amenities to provide a unique precinct that caters almost completely to the visitors’ needs.
|
And the last photo is all about Darling Harbour
| Quote: |
Darling Harbour is one of the world's great waterfront destinations. With its spectacular harbour setting, Darling Harbour has many of Australia's key tourist attractions and it’s also a favourite place for Sydneysiders to spend their time relaxing and celebrating.
Must-see attractions at Darling Harbour include:
Sydney Aquarium - one of the largest in the world with over 11,500 all Australian aquatic animals
Australian National Maritime Museum – free entry to Australia’s most-visited maritime museum
Chinese Garden of Friendship – a cultural oasis in the heart of Sydney
IMAX Theatre – catch a movie on this giant screen, more than eight storeys high
Powerhouse Museum – home to Australian culture and history
Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre – Australia’s premier venue for major events and conferences
Cockle Bay Wharf and King Street Wharf – two of Sydney's favourite dining and entertainment destinations
