monday morning

Assalamualaikum~

good morning people!

it is, no doubt, a monday morning when school reopens today and public transports return to its hustle and bustle of crowdedness, and students and adults rushing to work…except me (and maybe a few other fortunate people out there)

i took leave today.

and i hear the birds chirping and the neighbourhood cleaner sweeping at the park, and the sound of people walking, occassionally i heard mandarin conversations and the sound of bus 112.

wahh…seri macam nak tulis essay for O Level ah. 🙂 hehe.

but yes, after almost 3 months of not blogging and missing it a lot, this morning i woke early despite sleeping in late last night and somehow i couldnt sleep again, i thought, why not blog? before i start on some work. i definitely need time alone to rejuvenate my soul and re-motivate myself.

work is ridiculous. it was the june holidays but i except for a one day off in lieu i took, it was pretty much the same work schedule, even finishing work later than usual! what’s with the courses taking up much of my time from work. i have plans to work out, reports to do and library arrangements to work out and youth events to keep up to date since some other colleague seems to need to be pushed to do, and finding trainers to fill up my shoes and relief trainers to find as well. it is a lot to do and sometimes i feel very much irritated when other people seems to take things lightly. this is nasty me comparing myself…i could count with my fingers my off or leave or null-mc since day one i started work at this mosque. and my heart body and soul is dedicated to this work, there’s so many works that needed to be done and some people actually claimed their rights of a holiday, when face it, their working hours are much lesser than expected! given too much leeway already! i understand them and the least i’m asking from them is spare a small priority to the pending tasks.
and nowadays, i feel more tired than usual and its got nothing to do with the world cup.

ok let’s stop. it’s definitely a nice morning and i thank Lord for giving me this and i do not want to spoil the serenity.

i pray for better days and the near future change might be a doorway to more changes. and i hope my significant other will always be there to support me. it’s a lot of hardwork. but nobody said marriage is easy. and truth be told, i’m feeling anxious already with the preparations and that there’s many things i havent done.

to everyone out there, spare a do’a for me.
thanks.

have a great week ahead. insya Allah.

speeding thoughts

there’s going to be our very first maulid rasul celebration at the mosque this saturday and it’s making me restless. i couldn’t sleep the whole of last night just thinking about it! i keep going through the things that needed to be done over and over, worried that i will forget them the very next day! it’s almost like a speeding train not knowing when to stop :/

when i did get to sleep, i think i slept for a short while before the alarm sounded and then aware of my sisters walking about getting ready for school. as soon as i reached work, my mind already reeling with so many things.

but i know everything will turn out well, insya Allah. i really hope it will. speaking of which, tomorrow i have to call up people!! don’t forget that seri! and email those applicants who want to teach!

ok. breath in breath out. things will go well. am excited and nervous. but hey, i always feel like this before every event. haha!

and the best thing would be to play as many selawats as possible on this day. i always felt my heart ‘jumping’ with joy everytime we played a selawat. i missed those feeling. and i missed those times at my old school when we have our very own session of maulids. if only among my teachers are almaarifians who could reminisce with me those beautiful times and perhaps, have it as a culture at school. i wouuld love those. (hehe, better start looking for juniors who are willing to teach:))

*************

and because you dedicate the song to me…
i.m.y. yes. you.

cut the tree

now perhaps in seven habits we have what we know as sharpen the saw… simply said practice makes perfect. but all i’m thinking is to start sharpening the mind with these on the list:

childhood education
best teaching methods
religions
be up to date to news (i have taken for granted and not watch or read the news properly for the past year!)
sharpen my fiqh, read up my tauhid, and everything related to it
and yes, definitely read up those books unread as of yet!

and as have learnt, assert: I HAVE TIME

and yes i will start today.
