Nothing is more meaningful than having a good moment with my family, with my husband MH especially. Everyday is a special day for us. Sometimes the mood is in its down turn but I have learned to have a good control of my emotion nowadays. I am thankful to MH and the boys for giving me the joy, I am thankful to Allah for giving me all of them.
I like to be in my positive mood. My positive mood has a good attraction to my innerself. And when I am in the good mood, I can forget the pain. I can take charge of my emotions. But then again, I cannot do it without the help from Allah SWT. Every prayer is included with the needs and the requests that He bestows me His greatest assistance, to ease my pain, to make me stronger, to make me His humble servant, to make me a person who acknowledges His blessings that He showers in my daily life.
If you look at my face, I do not look like I am in pain. Some people gave me the sceptical look when I told them that the chemo has caused some bad pain on my joints, knuckles, lower back and legs. I am okay with what they projected on their face or in the tone of voice because I know it is Allah that has helped me to have a cheerful face. To me, what matter most is how I dwell with my pain. To think of the pain as a slowing mechanism, and to seek forgiveness to Allah. I am yet an
alim person, still far from it and still learning to be
istiqomah in my Ibadaah... All I am asking from God is to consider my small deeds as an amal (good deeds) and let not all the
Mazmumah factors invade my heart. I do not want to be considered as boasting or bragging, I do not want my writing or my sharing contains some tone of
riyak and
takabbur... If there is a tinge of it, I seek forgiveness from you again Ya Robb...
I am still in my Hari Raya mood. I will write something about BC Awareness month in the next entry. At the moment, I just want to share my weekend happenings with all of you. Last Sunday, green was the theme. Green is my favourite colour. So both of us were in our green attire. We visited my best friend Pah and some other friends and of course we went to Amcorp Mall to do our rounding... MH loves to collect die-cast planes and this seller only come on Sundays so we would visited him and next to him is a chinese man selling some potted plants. I bought Basil and purple-flowered
Misai Kucing plants from him. While MH shared his views about planes, I talked about plants with this chinese man. So far, my
Pecah Beling, Sambung Nyawa, Aloe Vera, white-flowered
Misai Kuching, Daun Tujuh Bilah, Lavender plants I bought from him and they have grown in my yards. They are my therapy. My gardening therapy. When I tend to my garden, I wash a few leaves of those plants (in odd numbers, either 1, 3, 5 or 7 - why is that so? I have no idea, I just do it that way) and after reciting Bismillah 5 and Selawat to Rasulullah SAW I just chew them. Bitter or whatever the taste, I have become tolerant to it.
After Amcorp Mall, MH suggested we went to Subang Parade. What a good idea it was because as I walked into the shopping complex I heard a familiar voice over a loud speaker thanking everyone... Adibah Noor's voice! I leaned over there balcony and saw the handsome face of Hans Isaac... I asked MH: Where are you all going to? When he said he wanted to take the boys to Parkson and Toy R Us, I told him I wanted to have my 'celebrity time' with THAT handsome man... can
ahhh darling? He said okay take your time... That answer was what I wanted to hear!
Dengan hati berbunga-bunga (With a heart blossoming with joy) I rushed down the escalator and saw
Afdlin Shauki too... Yee Haaa... all my favourite actors were there! They were promoting the event:
Cuci The Musical which will be staged in Istana Budaya from 23 October to early Nov... I went to the ticketing counter to request for the 4 tickets for 1 Nov Matinee show. The boys have been asking me when are we going to Istana Budaya again and I think this is a good chance since I'll hear Hans Isaac singing... Whoa Hooo Hoo...
I didn't want to miss the opportunity to have the moment framed in my photo albums. I told the charming-friendly men, these photos will go into my FaceBook Album and into my blog... So here you go folks, my moments with them, Afdlin Shauki, Hans Isaac, Yasmin Yusuf and Adibah Noor. Samantha Schubert had declined to have her photo taken. By the way she is the publicist for the event. You want to be the audience too? Go to

These guys must be wondering...who is this makcik (aunty) in the Jubah and had been pot-pet-pot-pet like a friendly neighbour... hahaha
Afdlin: Thank you for making my day!
