and that has made me think... we do not have tat much time... and it has even made me sick to the max when people keep on posting of what's happening all over the world in their FB. Its a reminder... yes.. I know that.. indeed..
Come to think of it, I should have become a recluse.. isolating myself from the community.. moving to another world which there are only animals and carnivores.. hey wait.. I might end up been eaten by them... okay.. next plan...
Frankly speaking... I am so tired.. I mean mentally tired..the only thing that would put smile to my face is when I am no longer making excuses for not doing things that I am supposed to do ( Okay.. blogging is not in my to do list).
Just a few hours ago, I received another ( and many more) excuses from a student who has disappeared for quite sometime.. without any news or progress. I emailed.. whats-apped.. called.. but to no avail. The last resort was by telling her friend that I m expecting some results on her project, which has been delayed too long after her wedding. and she emailed me with more excuses..
I do not want to start preaching. again with the klise line of.. "during my time... pbhttt"
I guess quitting is the trend nowadays...
Wait... making excuse is even more popular... and blaming others.. comes second..
Enough said...
Anyway.. on a happier note.. which has put a crooked smile on my face.. I managed to accomplish something that I dream/planned before. A few years ago, I posted something in here, and every year I dream of seeing it happened for real. And this year, when those 2 makciks came to collect their duit raya, I voiced out my idea to them, and they said, they ll ask around. I even gave my sister's hp no, as she would be around in KB, in case the ketua kampong calls him. A week after raya, they came back and updated the news. My father who is also into this idea, asked them to find the cow, if they ever knew any cow breeder. and just early this week, I got a call from my father saying that he was going to see the cow owner and at the same time purchase the cow for the korban. Looks like we are going to have a meaningful eid-ul-adha at the kampong this year.The kampong is actually far from my home and also quite far from the main road. and I know the people there will appreciate the korban performed by my family this year. And I can see that it is gonna be a yearly event for the incoming years. In shaa Allah.
Btw, last eid.. was the same as before. while everyone went to so many houses for makan2, I had my compulsory visit to the remaining aunts and uncles. And most of my time.. I spent it at home. It so happened that I am the only one who did not suffer from any diarrhea, emesis, sore throat or fever. owh well, celebrating the 1st Syawal doesn't mean that you r free to feast yourself with loads of food. moderate is more like it.. haha
The new semester is gonna start in a week time.. wohoooo... I am anticipating for the year to end.. as I ll be having my sabbatical leave then. Not sure where to during the leave thou.. maybe I am still stuck in here...
Last but not least...
Selamat Hariraya from the purple (la pulak) family.. pbhtttt... Thank God I was in a different color... a Raya theme is a big no no to me..:)
