Nekmah Bowling & Carom Tournament 2017

Hello~!

On Hari Malaysia 16th of September, Nekmah (combination of my Moyang's name together Nekmat + Fatimah) gathering was held in E-Curve, Damansara. This time it was decided on having Bowling & Carom Tournament. I never played bowling at E-Curve before so I was quite nervous. The tournament started at 2pm and before that, I accompanied my parents to a wedding at TM Convention Center. Thank God we have the Kerinchi Link. We got there just on time and had our Zuhr.

Under Nekmah, we have four Kabilah competing for the Nekmah Cup.

1. Bumai
2. Che Mad
3. Hijah
4. AB

Of course I'm under Bumai as they are my grandparents. We were all divided into groups of lanes and I got lane 11. My mom was next to me, lane 10. The tournament started right after my father did the first throw. My first game was 110. My 2nd 145 and my last game was 95, omg that sucked. Yeah of course I didnt get top three.  I posted something on my Instagram regarding about my mother winning and somehow it kinda happen for real. Don't get me wrong, I am happy that my mom won. When the prize giving ceremony started, I really didn't expect to win anything as I said before I sucked. They were giving medals to top 10 winners. I got number six! I was just excited that they decided to even give medals for top 10.

My Mom won first place as expected. She's really good. She deserved it. Let me show you some of  the pics from the tournament. Im sorry for not ellaborating on the Carrom tournament because I was playing and didnt know the actual situation

I hope next year, Bumai will win the Nekmah Cup. I hope next year I could be in the top three once again. For what's worth, I enjoyed the company of my relatives despite we don't see each other often. Hope next year, Insyallah we could meet again. Bye!  

My 31st Birthday Celebration

Hello..

Yeap, I'm officially 31. Pejam celik 30 pun beralih pergi and 31 came. So quick sometimes I feel its scary. Lately, I find myself to over think certain matters and emotionally unstable. I guess its the perks of being over 30? who knows. I guess when I'm stressed I tend to eat and eat more than I should. Who says staying at home mom can't be stressed ? Especially you have the access to the fridge. Ok..ok enough of this.

For my birthday, Nuar brought me to BLVD House this time. Well our dinner was cut short due to Aidil dont want to sit down. Imagine you came at 8:45 and you went home at 9:15pm. Nuar's started to change. From smiling to a smirk. I tried to make things not pressured and being positive all I can. Deep down, bummed. All you can do is following the flow.

Let me share you some pictures.

I really like the ambiance of the restaurant. The chairs. The feel. Great. The food?

I loved my baked Salmon and Truffle Fries~! I ordered the truffles fries because I have never taste truffle before. New taste and with the combination of fries. A matching combo. Nuar had the Meatball Rigatoni. So, what I said earlier, we went home early due to Aidil's tantrum. We packed most of it for home. The price? Sorry to say.. overpriced. Expensive. Good thing its a one time thing.
But its family friendly kind of place. Friendly staff. Although they were a bit puzzled as why we left early. Manage to take pictures in front of the Restaurant. At that time Nuar's face was sour. I asked him to take a picture of me and after that I ask a lady nearby to take our picture.

Actually, this birthday celebration was at the eve of my birthday, 13 August. Decided to do it on this night because the family celebration was on the night of my birthday. Since everyone wants Japanese we went to Rakuzen at Empire Shopping Gallery. We ordered the usual's. I forgot to take pictures because I was hungry and when I arrived my food was already there. Me and Japanese cannot be separated. But I can show my Birthday Cake.

Made by none other Amr's Delicacy. Its a carrot cake. Delicious~! Amr's Delicacy is my cousin's Baking business. My father ordered behind my back secretly. Nice of him to. Flattering. So that was how my birthday celebration went. After this is my brother's. Can't wait.

Bye~!

My First Duck !

Hello~!

I just want to say, finally...I've been Ducked~!

I know you all already got yours maybe a lot but it's kinda of a deal for me since they are costly. I guess people would pay that amount of money for a shawl because of the limited edition pieces and quality. It's like 5 minutes after it is launched, sold out just like that. As for me, i have to save money to get one. Duck recently launched the Alhambra series for Raya and i got a hold of one of it thanks to my cousin. I'm thankful for her because she's trying to get me ducked ever since. She persuade me to have one and she did. So. I got the white one.

You have no idea how happy I am when I got offered for this duck. It got me quacked~! Haha

Well, I already wore it when I went back to Kelantan for Raya. I can feel the difference when putting it on. The smooth silky texture of the shawl makes it easy to shape the forehead. 

Nice eh? hahaha

Actually, I've been wanting to wear white and I always ended up choosing a dark colored Instant hijab because its just that easy. Its hard to maintain a white shawl especially you have an active 3 year old son who likes to smear on everything he touches (I'm not blaming Aidil, kita memang dari kecik selekeh and comot hahaha..😜😜😜). I guess, after this i'll try to wear shawl more often and try to save money to buy more duck hahaha..). I'm just glad that my first Duck is the Alhambra Duck. 

Do you remember your first Duck experience? I'm sure its exciting. Nonetheless, Finally i got to joined the Duck family and got Ducked~! yeay~!! I've been Ducked~!!        

  

Inside the heart

I don't know how to describe the feeling of how I feel today.. I just want to capture this day as a reminder to myself in the future. Today my emotions somehow exploded. Even now i still feel the emptyness. Somehow sorrow decided to stay for a while. Eventhough he told not to worry when he told me about what he's going through. As what i am, who doesnt worry. Deep inside I can feel as though he's trying to reach out for comfort.

Before he goes, he hugged me tight and shed a tear.. That time I just got up from my nap. Still a bit groggy. All i said was that i love him and ask him to be strong. I don't know if what i said is the right thing somehow i regret it now that i should have said something more. He let go and headed straight into the car.  When he left, the moment I locked the front door. I somehow frozed. Looking into a quite and soundless house. I broke down when i lay upon my eyes onto his red mug. His red mug he always used every morning to drink his coffee. Tears kept pouring and i can't stop. I went to his room where he prays. The room fills with the sound of my crying. Deep inside my heart I felt that I hoped that it wouldnt be the last. I' m not that strong. No I am not. I'm not ready.

I calm myself by taking wuduk to pray for Zohor. My heart still doesnt change. Eventhough when I recite, i kept thinking about the hug. We are not the type that always shows or say we love to each other. But in that hug, it says, i feel it. When i finished my solat, I took a deep breath and put my hand  together and started praying. Again, I broked down. I feel its the right time for me to cry. I cried to my Creator. Please give me the strenght to go through all this. Please give me patience to go through all this. Indeed I am very small and humbly asking and pray to You. Only You.

Now he's over there and I am here. Deep down, I am concerning that if he is truely ok. I don't want him to feel alone. Can he sleep? Is he eating well? Tomorrow. I have to help him to be strong going through all this. Tomorrow, I will do the best I can. I can.
