My entries of this year have been mundane and plain boring, I found out after I read my entries which are so long ago, feel free to browse through them, there's archives. I definitely have grown, from the day I started this blog.
This blog has its ups and down, it was hacked once, I still remember it vividly. I've let the matter rest eversince.
I visited Maiya a week back, she has definitely grown. Brother asked me to visit more frequently as she's slowly developing attachements with different people. Damn, I still wanna be her no.1 aunt. I had my own parenting moments with her, playing, watching Dibo on tv, looking into the mirror and showing where her nose and ears are, etc. There were times where I just wanna eat her up, coz she's too cute. All these while, Ashraf was by my side too. :)
I managed to borrow a few books from Brother too. Currently I'm reading Chicken Soup for the Couple's Soul. Don't laugh, but Chicken Soup has changed lives and made its readers see things in a different light. I'll share some really nice quotes in my entries to come. Also A Thousand Splendid Suns and the translation of the Holy Quran in english. My Brother has tons of books at homes, from aroma theraphy, cooking, pregnancy, too many, even Maiya has her own bookshelf. Ridiculously adorable.
Looking at my Brother with his own family now, I'm definately grateful, and a teeny-weeny bit jealous too. He has good job, a loving wife, a cute kid, a house, a car, he's also pursuing his degree, somehow everything seems to fall in place for him. Very easily, his first girlfriend became his wife. :)
I guess God made his path simpler, as compared to mine. As much as I grumble and compare, I accept it wholeheartedly. I've always believed that fairy tales do exists, it's just how the story goes to end with a happily-ever-after. Like when you fall, it's not only a matter of getting up, but how you pick yourself to get back up again. As much as sometimes, I feel that I'm in a really bad situation, I remind myself there are others out there who's goint through worst. I guess, if we learn to accept and appreciate, happily-ever-afters are achievable.
As for me, I'm pretty much caught up with quite a lot of things now, expecially work.
Before I go, here's a Maiya treat for you.
Frankly speaking, the only reason why my blogskin is all flowery now is coz I had no choice, this is just temporary. Apparently my previous background had been removed. I really miss doing my own blogskin, Photoshop-ing. Whatever, this is unimportant. I'll have my own blogskin again, if not soon enough, later then.
My store is already playing Disney's Christmas songs, how fast.
I'm pretty much occupied with a lot of things this November and December, really. With work especially. No pain, no gain, good things come later after all the hardwork,
alhamdulillah. Along the way, I may have disappointed and missed some people, I apologise, time's not really on my side now. But I promise,
insya'allah, once this is all over, we can soon have our get fat days, go for yong tau fu, starbuck-ing, bitch about the sports we used to play and also McD breakfast. I'm sure you people know who you are.
If you ask me, I hate rushing. Unfortunately, this is what I've been doint lately. Basket.
Everything else aside, Maiya and my dad, needs my attention most right now.
I've friends doubting/smirking at me, because:
1. I bought running shoes for myself.
2. That I'm not gonna actually run.
3. I'm president of Forever Food Club.
Tsk. You see, laugh some more.
