Hey, I know you

Ask any teacher and they'll tell you that one of the most rewarding things of being a teacher is when students come back and visit you. You can't help but be part of the journey of these students and not want to know how things turn out - either in or outside of school.
So when some kids came to visit us recently you can imagine how I felt. :)

Thank you for putting a smile on my face, for sparing some time, for remembering.


Of course there are some who never make an appearance at all, never write and never text. It's easy to conclude how they have forgotten you but then you try and look at the bright side and consider that they're just busy leading their lives away from you. After all, life must always go on. 

So I try to be positive and pray that they are all leading good lives filled with love, peace under God's guidance, always, and hope that I'm at least in their prayers too. 



ps/ scrolling through Instagram photos and seeing you guys all in your graduation robes these past few days have made my heart swell.. proud of everyone! Congrats!!

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..

under the weather

I think I'm one of those people who rarely get sick, praise be to Allah for that. Yet when I do fall sick, it happens usually during the weekends or a long holiday like right now. Mind over matter. That's what I tell myself when I refuse to give in to my `helpless' condition.. If not I'd not be able to get things done. Yet of course our body needs to rest. Needs to heal. So rest we must.. and with that, I bid farewell for a while until I get back to my normal self. Abdullah r.a berkata, Rasulullah bersabda: “ tidak ada seorang muslim yang ditimpa cubaan berupa sakit dan sebagainya melainkan dihapuskan Allah taala dosa-dosanya seperti pohon kayu menggugurkan daunnya.” God willing.

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.
