congratulations..

Today, the UPSR results are out. Although none of my nieces or nephews took the exam this year, I was still looking forward to this day as one of my friend's eldest daughter sat for the exam. I know the feelings..and I always knew Along could make it..Congratulations Along for getting 5As in your UPSR.

Mas, u must be the most happiest person in the world today..all your hard work pays..as a full time working mum, part time student and God knows what else..u should be proud of Along and of course to a great extent, yourself..I know how much efforts u put in..the hardships u gone thru..the tears u shed and the pain u suffered in making sure your daughters get the best in lives..All pays off today. I know how it feels as that was how i felt 2 years ago when Hilda got 5As in her UPSR. I guess we got excited as this is our first time going thru all these.

Deep down..I envy you in so many ways..u survived despite many obstacles in life..unlike me..so pampered, protected and fragile.. they are always there for me..be it good times or bad..yet I complained..I'm being ungrateful..

Anyway, Mas, i want u to know that Ive been dying to write one good entry for u in my blog..but never had a chance to do it..u know how 'miserable' my life has been the past few weeks..but today i make it a point to write something about u..esp when today is a special day for Along and u and the rest of ur family..CONGRATULATIONS ALONG..

People's Perception..just let it be..

'Syurga dunia' lasted for barely one month..that's why it's termed as 'syurga dunia'. Things are now back to how it was one month before..could see Pa struggling with the laundry baskets this morning..I woke up early to prepare for lunch..cleaned up the stoves, the floors and anything that my hands could reach..



At breakfast with Mas and Aishah this morning, I learned that they are also doing the same thing all the while..cook for b/fast, lunch, do ironing and God knows what..Guess..I'm not alone..HaHa..But..one thing that they may not have in common with me is that I have to bring my work back..that is the VERY thing that pple 'around me' dont get it and would never get it!!! That's why 'they' see this as a simple problem..that it is normal chores for 'housewife' (cum working mum) to settle..



My work full of datelines..financial matters without datelines are meaningless!!!..that is another aspect that pple 'around me' are not able to digest completely..They may think i'm avoiding my responsibilities as a wife..but the truth is difficult to explain..and even if it is well explained..it is difficult to change pple's perception.
