I tend to buy things in bulk. Sometimes because they are way cheaper, sometimes because I just like the items so much. In Anggunnya, I share the gorgeous items with you.
... and a journey of endeavors to untangle those thoughts

My grandma seems slightly more emotional than usual today. When she’s emotionally unstable, she’ll spend more time at the guest living room, looking out at the passing cars on the main road. Termenung aje lah. Wonder what she’s thinking. She is supposed to follow us to JB over the weekend. When I called the maid, she said “Tok tak mau ke Johor. Saya bingung! Datang aja ke mari” haha adoiii. True enough when I reached my aunt’s house she was at her “termenung” chair. So kesian
When asked why she didn’t want to come with us, she said “kesian angah sunyi, dok sorang dia” “tok lama dah dok sorang”. I guess she wanted to tell us that she knows how it feels like to not have your signifant other with you anymore.
Angah doesn’t really stay alone. She’s got her kids with her. My uncle passed away about a year ago. Al-Fatihah.
I’ve always wanted to write about this, but I guess the only excuse I have is I do not have the time. You know the feeling when you are never happy with what you have in life? No matter how successful you are in other people’s eyes you still want more. No matter how thin you are, you wish you were thinner. Some thin people which to grow slightly bigger than they already are. You have a house but you wish it is bigger. You have a sweet boyfriend but now you wish your boyfriend is more romantic etc etc and the list of the ungratefulness goes on and on.

I realize that no matter how you think someone is perfect, there are always some things that make him or her not so perfect anymore. Nobody gets everything she wants in life. Nobody is perfect.
I know a person who seems perfect. She is smart, sweet, beautiful, had a great career and came from a rich family. She got married to a rich husband as well. On the surface, her life is perfect. After getting to know her, I got to know that her husband was diagnosed with lung cancer. She laughed and smiled when she talked about him but I knew she was sad inside. She left her job to take care of her husband. She didn’t even need the money in the first place. Her husband passed away after about two months. They were married for 10 years and had no children. Hence, they were very close and he was all she had. It wasn’t easy for her going through the first few months after the passing of her husband. She now stays with her maid. Her friends and family would come to visit sometimes. And she’s going back to work to fill her loneliness. I pray for the best for her and hope that she’ll get through this difficult moment. I know she’ll be ok as everything she does to cure her sadness is bringing her closer to Allah.
As a reminder to myself, no matter how bad you think your life is, it isn’t the end of the world. Be grateful for all the beautiful things you have in life. The mishaps you probably face are to make you stronger. You can’t decide which difficulties you want to face but you can decide on what to do with it and how to move on from there. However bad things could be we should never blame our Maker. Never ever stop believing. Go back to Him as this is why he sent the challenges to us. He wants us to remember, pray and beg from Him. Allah knows best.
Ya Allah! Panasnya. Any room without the presence of the aircond is super hot after 3.30pm. Look at how red my face is, how kering the leaves are and how gondol the bukit is. I guess now I know what I miss most about being at work; the aircond! haha
P/s: my study room desperately needs a 2HP aircond. Ada nak derma untuk tabung aircond saya? Nanti dapat pahala banyaaaaaaaakkk. Sebab orang tu guna aircond tu untuk study/menimba ilmu tau. Ameen.
My mum was an active unit trust consultant many years back. She stopped promoting the business/ service to her clients prolly during the financial crisis. I asked her why did she slow down although being a financial consultant gave her a handsome amount of money every month. Her reply was that she didn’t want people to invest their money during bad times. It is after all not her own money.
I used to follow my mum to meet her clients. When people ask me why am I so inclined to finance, I guess by now you know the answer already :p
