Majalah Laman Impiana - Hortikultur: Racun Organik.

Dua hari sudah, semasa membelek-belek majalah Laman di R&R Sg Buloh, terpandang segmen Resipi racun dan baja organik di cover page. Lebih teruja apabila 'resipi' yang dihantar, disiarkan pula di m/s 46 Edisi 23 (Nov/Dis 2009). Apa lagi terus dibeli majalah tersebut. Suami pulak tersenyum2...

Bag of Goodies

Had a pleasant surprise yesterday, when we got a bag of goodies from Denso, Bangi at the toll plaza. There was rather a long queue at an off peak time leading to the 'tunai' lane. My children were saying this might be due to people balik kampung for Raya (and we were heading home after school!!). Nope, it was not. The cars had to slow down to get the Denso yellow bags.... Filled with road safety pamphlets. Part of Denso's corporate social responsibility.

We'll be heading to our kampung soon, and will see if we're lucky to get any goodies along the way. :-)

Selamat Hari Raya to all and take care.

Tidakkah kita ghairah.... ?

Tidakkah kita ghairah dalam menanti Ramadhan yang bakal menjelang?

Soalan itu membuat diri ini terfikir sejenak... Zaman kanak2 sudah lama berlalu yang mana puasa hanyalah lapar dan dahaga. Dalam usia yang menjangkau setengah abad, masihkah aku tidak ghairah untuk meraih segala pemberian yang tak ternilai dariNya dalam bulan yang penuh barakah ini. Pemberian yang bakal dibawa bersama untuk nun di sana....

InsyaAllah, penuhkanlah bulan Ramadhan ini dengan perkara yang mendatangkan keredhaanNya. Tadarus, tarawikh akan terus dilakukan. Namun, apa perkara lain yang perlu??? Oh ya, time management pun harus diberi perhatian.

Ahlan Wa Sahlan Ya Ramadhan!

Pergi Tak Kembali

Pabila bersendirian, muhasabahlah diri... Agar segala lisan, laku dan bisikan diredhaiNya.

Rabbani
Pergi Tak Kembali

Setiap insan pasti merasa
Saat perpisahan terakhir
Dunia yang fana akan ditinggalkan
Hanya amalan yang dibawa

Terdengar sayup surah dibaca
Sayunya alunan suara
Cemas di dada...lemah tak bermaya
Terbuka hijab di depan mata

Selamat tinggal pada semua
Berpisahlah kita selamanya
Kita tak sama nasib di sana
Baikkah atau sebaliknya

Amalan dan takwa jadi bekalan
Sejahtera bahagia pulang...ke sana
Sekujur badan berselimut putih
Rebah bersemadi sendiri

Mengharap kasih anak dan isteri
Apa mungkin pahala dikirim
Terbaring sempit seluas pusara
Soal-bicara terus bermula

Sesal dan insaf tak berguna lagi
Hancurlah jasad dimamah bumi
Berpisah sudah segalanya
Yang tinggal hanyalah kenangan

Diiring doa dan air mata
Yang pergi takkan kembali lagi

Biskut Oat

Bulan Ramadhan bakal berkunjung tiba... (Semoga aku sempat bertemu Ramadhan yang penuh barakah ini tak lama lagi...), tiba2 terasa nak makan biskut pulak. Hmm... Alhamdulillah, ramuan memang ada di rumah, maka jadilah biskut oat ni. Resipi yang memang simple ie tak payah beracuan.

Of leaving the nest....

Another of our daughter left home to continue her studies yesterday. The location is not that far but it reminds both of us on how time flies (very fast indeed!) as we're approaching our golden years. Alhamdulillah, everything went as planned when we left her at her lodging (for the next one year!). The univ bus was already waiting to take the freshies back to campus to start their orientation week (or Ta'aruf Week as it is called nowadays).
Two weeks before were hectic especially for me. Scouted for pink cloth for her freshie's 'uniform'. Went to Nilai Square and purchased the materials. Not wanting to have both from the same material, we bought two types of cloth. Two mini jubahs were made by our long time tailor in Taman Tenaga, Kak Liah. Alhamdulillah, she agreed to make them.
A medical examination was also part of the requirement. We went to have her x-ray taken and other tests taken at Pusat Rawatan An- Nur, BBBangi. The nurses there donned surgical masks in preparation for any N1H1 eventualities. Good move indeed! Better be prepared then sorry...
Next, the LHDN at Hentian Kajang, Jalan Reko, to get 'setem duti' stamped on one of her forms. Paid RM10 per form, whereby we've three forms to be stamped! The process was ok, needed to feel a form, took a Q-number and waited for the forms to be handed back at one of the counters.

Mahallah Ruqayyah

Last week, I went to fetch my daughter at Mahallah Ruqayyah (pic). The semester was ending and she needed to vacate her room. It was like moving out of an apartment with her stuff filling the boot and the back seat! She went up and down, (countless to me), and when everything was done, I was as tired as she was.... Took lunch at the cafeteria... not bad for hostel food. And the TV there was blabbering a P.Ramlee's movie.

During my time, I just left some of my stuff or give it away, for moving places is such a tiring must-do! My tertiary edu involved me moving from Toronto to Waterloo and to Guelph. All in Ontario.
Ahh...the good ol' student days.

Ziarah

Minggu lepas. salah seorang jiran telah kehilangan suami. Semalam, beberapa orang dari kejiranan kami ke rumah jiran tersebut untuk mengucapkan takziah dan memberi sokongan moral. Banyak perkara boleh dibelajar disamping pertolongan yang terdaya oleh jiran lain. Ada kalanya jiran mengambil tempat saudara mara yang jauh. Begitulah juga yang dianjurkan dalam Islam. Nasihat dan pandangan boleh diberikan oleh jiran yang berpengalaman.
Setiap dari kita akan menghadapi saat ini. Cuma kita tidak tahu siapa yang akan menyahut panggilanNya terlebih dahulu. Namun, bersedialah dalam apa cara sekalipun.
