Pause

It's the hottest day of the year. Well that's what the news has been warning the whole nation since last week. Alhamdulillah for air-conds and high ceilings it's not so bad where we're at right now. Plus it just started raining!


Tomorrow school starts again and after a week of holiday I must say I'm raring to go back to work. Aww shucks.. that's just how it is.. sorry Wawa. I know you'd like to think Mama should be on holiday forever. :p


It's March, I know. Loads of things have happened. Pivotal moments in our lives.. Yet I have failed to find time to write here. Shame on me.


Something I read recently reminded me yet again to savour moments that pass by quickly. For it is so easy in life to go about our daily routines in a kind of trance till all experiences and memories kinda blur into one another when we don't take time to appreciate them.


For me at least I think some have already been blurred into one another.. But maybe if we stop to pause once in a while we'll get to really see them with much more meaning.
I'm pausing right now. To write a moment. To appreciate time given to me. Thank you Allah..


Till another time my dear.


XOXO

a sight for sore eyes

Seven years ago we made a decision that changed our lives. My husband and I took in ( bought ) a 2 month old cat (from Penang) who at that time was a tiny one and could fit into my husband's pocket shirt. We named him Woody because of his colour and we never looked back. Since then we've breeded 10 of Woody's offsprings and 5 grandchildren. After several deaths, a disappearance and some giving away, only 6 remain with us. And they are indeed a sight for sore eyes, a source of comfort and joy and above all, our children . Can't imagine life without them.

a note before midnight

It's the end of June.. soon it will be July - my favourite month ;) Significant things are happening in July. Results. Decisions to be made. New students, new class, new people to break my heart.. Anyway, it didn't work. My time off. Remind me not to have any time off from the world wide web cuz it'll never work. Can't be separated. Today was not a good day. I need to get my eyes checked cuz my lack of power which I never knew, is giving me terrible headaches and I couldn't see the writing on the mahjong papers my students presented today :( and my power is already 600!! :(( Ok.. gotta go battle with my cat and shove a pill down her throat. Please cooperate. If you're interested: sher127.tumblr.com goodnight readers of my blog..

what colour are you?

Am once again surrounded by the chaos and craziness of my working world. And I haven't even started teaching yet! One thing I often get to do when I'm at work is shop! There's always something for everybody whenever someone starts selling. In my defense, it saves me time from having to go to a shop myself.. and if i can get quality goods at affordable prices (pay 2,3 times.. haha), why not? Today it was batik. And being around colleagues who watch what we wear day in and day out.. everyone seems to know what colour would suit which person. I was no exception.. Once again, I didn't surprise anyone and chose material with the same colour I always choose. Which got strong reactions from my dear observant friends. So, I decided to try listening to everybody's protests and tried hard to find something that wasn't me . I wanted to embrace the challenge of wearing something different. Getting out of my comfort zone. But then I wondered, why would I want to be not me ...
