Doaku Termakbul
I have always wanted a nephew i.e. baby boy instead of a niece i.e. baby girl. I can still remember before my first niece was born, everyone else was hoping that it’s a girl. I am the only one hoping for baby boy. The reason is simply because so that I can play roughly with him. Main ganas2, main power rangers, etc. Having a niece would not give me the chance of doing so.
As an alternative, I like when my cousin came over to my house because he has a 3 year old son. I enjoy playing with his son, Azim. He came to my house recently. I played bunga api with him. He is afraid of nothing. Not even a huge flame.
I received a good news recently. My sister-in-law is expecting a baby boy! Yippie. She is expected to deliver her baby next February. That is very soon. Mind you that my birthday is also in February. So, I believe the baby will be very smart, genius and good looking just like his uncle. Those born in February are well known to have that characteristics.
SELAMAT HARI RAYA

WE HAVE A PROBLEM
I have a cousin who is currently working in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The last time I met him was when I went to perform umrah. We met before my parents and I departed back to Malaysia. That day, he gave some souvenirs to my father i.e. his uncle. Among the souvenirs that he gave is a piece of cloth for my father to make a baju melayu. After he left, I had a short conversation with my father:
Ayah :
Nak buat ape dgn kain nie yer?
Anas :
Ayah buat baju melayu lah.
Ayah :
Tp ayah rasa ayah tak nak buat baju melayu raya tahun nie. Sbb ayah baru je beli baju
Melayu. Awak nak?
Anas :
Erm…. Bleh jgk. (dgn nada serba salah nak amek.. tp dlm hati sbnarnya… NAK!!!!!!!!!!!)
So, that is the story how I got my baju melayu. Huhu. The problem right now is I heard that my cousin is coming back for raya. If he is celebrating hari raya here in KL, I am sure that he’ll be coming to our house. How we’ll he react when he found out that I used the cloth that he gave to his uncle for my baju raya?
IT IS EASIER TO SAY
“Then when you have taken a decision, put your trust in Allah, certainly, Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him)” Ali Imran: 159
That is a verse from the Holy Quran that I love to quote whenever my friends are sitting for an exam or when they have lost hope. The verse gives a deep meaning if we can understand it properly. Through the verse, Allah encourages us to have faith in Him and that we shall work hard and let the rest be decided by Allah.
Recently, I found that it is easier to say it then to actually apply in my life. Why do I say it? For your information, I failed in Year 2 Block 1 Minitest. This is not the first time I failed in my Minitest. This is my second time. The first was Year 1 Block 1 Minitest. Though it is my second time, I found that it is harder for me to accept the reality this time. The reason is simply because I worked really hard. I work day and night tirelessly. Honestly, the result came as a shock for me as I was actually confident of passing the exam. Before the exam, I believe that everything was at my finger tips. That is the reason why it was a bit hard for me to accept the result. It took me quite some time for me to finally face the reality. Things that had happen can’t be changed. It is no use to be tension as it won’t change my result. Like the verse says, let the rest be decided by Allah. Allah has put it that way. He knows what I know not. He knows what the best for me.
My second failure gives me the opportunity to review my life back. Review my relationship with him. I realize that when everything is easy for me, I tend to forget Him. I need to improve myself. I have to remember that Allah is always with me. Do not lose hope on him. Allah will always grant our prayers.

RAMADHAN, ME AND PATIENCE
Ramadhan really taught me to be patience. There are 2 events that really test my patience happen this week.
1st event: I broke my favourite sunglass
Last Friday, I went to a petrol station. Usually, when I arrived at the petrol station, I will take off my sunglass and put it on the dashboard. I don’t know why that day I did not put it on the dashboard but instead I put it in my pocket. I think I was tired studying so did not make a wise decision. Hehehe. While I was waiting for the pump attendant to fill up my tank, I lean on my car. Then, you know what happen. I can’t describe my feeling back then. I was really sad and speechless. Ainie was right. I did it all by myself and so can’t put the blame on other people. Ainie was also right that if someone else were to break it, I was going to be really angry.
I just got back from sending the sunglass for fixing. I have to buy new lenses. It cost me RM160! SABAR JE LAH!!
2nd event: Hit and run
It took place on the second day of my exam. I parked my car nicely in front of the Kulliyyah of Pharmacy building. I went to sit for the exam. After the exam, I walked slowly to my car with frustration because I was not satisfied with my answer in the exam. I could have done better. When I reached my car, I found that there was a huge scratch at the back of my car. It is still “fresh”. Someone had hit my car. He or she did not even left a note saying sorry or whatever. Frankly honest, I did not hope for any compensation as my car has a lot of scratch already. I was looking for an honest apology. That is what I want. If he or she were to leave a note saying sorry, I would have forgiven. Ini tidak! Marah nie!!!
To all my friends, if you found any red car with a scratch at the front bumper, please let me know. The driver of the car might be the driver who hit my car. The person that I am looking for! If I were to find the culprit, I want him or her to pay for compensation now.
