It is very much depressing watching the news and reading the newspapers these days.
Every pages i flipped, there's pictures and stories abt disasters everywhere. It's painful to see children wailing and people suffering from the cause of typhoon , earthquakes and other catastrophies.
Human can only try avoid or create warnings , but nothing can stop God's will.
Bro Mohsin, showed me this verse last Friday, after the class.
Surah At-Taubah : verse 126
" See they not that they are tried once or twice every year (with different kinds of calamities, disease, famine, etc.)? Yet, they turn not in repentance, nor do they learn a lesson (from it)."
Everything that we need to know is in the Quran.
IT is a MUST read book ..there's no dispute.

About Eid visiting and invitations ..............
I received a text message which read like this :
" i heard someone told me that if u come late to H house, the food will finish fast...like limited edition like dat "
I was a little taken aback when i read this.
I asked myself ... what's the intention ?
The food ? To eat ? Or sirraturrahim ?
Well....... some people **sigh**

As the saying goes , Health is Wealth.
As a parent volunteer in my daughter's school , im given the "benefit" of having health screening provided by the school. It is actually meant for thier staff/teachers for Free but parent volunteers like myself , paid a minimal of only $8. I was supposed to fast 8 hours before hand , and so, this morning i went for the check up, at the school's Thinker's Lodge .
The nurse checked my height and weight for the BMI . I tink im slightly overweight now, all thanks to the ketupats , lontongs , rendangs and what have yous . I had my blood pressure checked ..... it's a OK. They took 3 small tubes of my blood...... i figured it's to diagnose the cholestrol and diabetes . The results will be send to the school 21 days later . Geez, now im kinda worried .
Apart from that , my tafsir class is resuming back this Friday ..... and my other dhuha classes will resume next week. Seriously, i sooooo in need of these classes (again) ... after Ramadhan is gone, im so slacken. Hubby feels it too...... i tink he misses his teraweeh .
Now, i need to cook macaroni for lunch .......... and oh ! ive been munching and nibbling the cookies and kerepeks , especially the pineapple tarts .! My bad , how to loose weight like that ......... my gear is soooo mendak ....... gotta push my heavy-lazy-self to start going to the gym and do my brisk walk again !

Im really happy to meet up with cousins , aunties and other extended relatives during this Eid season.
Saturday, was spent going around visiting my mom side of the family . By only the fourth house (out of the 8 or izzit 9? ) , im all soooo full and bloated. Drank too much gassy drinks and ate tooooooooo much. Almost every houses there's food served..i figured, i gain 2 -3kg on that day alone ! OK, sooo i couldnt resist , the food is tooo tempting . I tried with just few pieces of ketupat , a small scoop of sambal goreng , add a piece of ayam masak merah and a small serving of rendang.......i ate and ate ... simply too yummy !!
Sunday, together with my parents , we went to my dad's side of the family. Most of my dad's side are older people........ let's just say 70yo and above. Im not so close to my dad's side , but i make a point to visit them , on every Eid . The second house, a 70yo uncle , a survivor...went thru many major ops , having cancerious tumor in his liver + other illness . He showed us the stitches on his tummy and the still plastered area around the left side of his pancreas (hope i get tis right) . His wife is his sole motivator ... he claimed.
The last house we went , left an impact for my hubby and myself. It was an eyeopener ........ more on touching the heart. This aunt and uncle , 77 yo and 87 yo respectively , live on their own ... and when we talked to them , it really shows their spirit of love towards each other and what life is all about. Amazing !
Im almost done with the visiting........ im fasting today and hope to complete by next week.,Insya allah.
So, how's your Eid ? :)
