preseverence

أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
“So patiently persevere, for verily the promise of Allah is true. And do not let those who themselves have no certainty of faith, shake your firmness”
- (Surah Ar-Rum 30:60)

learn somethin'?

when we attend any management of development courses arranged by the company, time and time again the trainers will stress on the learning process...the art of making a disadvantage into an advantage...the art of taking the mistakes we do, picking up the mess we made and turn it into a motivation to strive better.

i wonder if i actually learn anything from the mess that i've made. sometimes i forget to look back. instead i just walk ahead and wander around not knowing how else to do things. how else would i do things other than the ways that i have always done things?

*-*

anywayyyy... here's the " I've learned game" - i got tagged by Ms Tanjung

wow here's quite a bit of something i "think" i've learnt over these years.


I've learned that..
to be happy you have to "filter" what you want to listen to vs what you want to ignore

I've learned that..
a good way to de-stress is to be by yourself and enjoy your own company.

I've learned that..
there's always a child inside of us that gets excited or upset with silly things

I've learned that..
walking with / talking to a good friend on a bad day is a great help

I've learned that..
only we can control our silly mood swings

I've learned that..
we can all be unintendedly funny. ;)

I've learned that..
sometimes the things we really want aren't the things we should really have

I've learned that..
there is no use to stoop to someone's level just to prove a point

I've learned that..
with age, the things we used to like can bore us a little now...

I've learned that..

I've learned that..
gaining satisfaction from a job well done is priceless

I've learned that..
the things we want in life don't come easy at all

I've learned that..

I've learned that..

if we can't have what we want...then we should really try to be happy with what we have...

I've learned that..

the hardest thing to do is to let go...

yeah. we all claim it.

Hello Benji

we've just gotten a kitten a few days ago...

it's been years since we last have a kitten in the house. and we've had persian cats for quite some time. and they're mostly lazy :)

so Benji is a normal breed cat. but Benji is a darling. he drives us all crazy with his hyper-activeness. always jumping and running. but will be a little baby again when he's sleepy and we can just hold him in our arms...

so here are some of his act. please say hello to our lil Benji:

(he was saved from being hit by a car in the middle of the road by an angel)

the day he was brought home...

money trees

sometimes i really wish money grow on trees.
not for me. i can survive somehow with what i have. barely, but surely.

but for my brother mostly. for those who only have one brother and he happens to be the youngest i think you can relate. somehow he thinks with just a click of a finger he can get money as much as he wants without working for it.

i can't wait to have him start work full time and stop asking for so much from mom. the things he spends on are ridiculous and i think in a month he might spend more than what i earn! that's freakin too much!

maybe i am an idealist to expect him to be like me in those days. when i was in univ i depended on my monthly scholarship, and i worked throughout the 4 years, sometimes even took up 2 jobs to cover for my expenses.

sigh.
i hate spoiled brats.

but this spoiled brat happen to be my brother. and nothing i say change things. pathetic.

me + shoes + flip flop

i started my day today feeling good. not because i particularly dressed up for work. just simply. wanted to feel good. about anything at all. maybe it's the little extra make up. heh.

then i went to my car boot and seek for a strappy shoe i love and off to work.
while i was walking around at the office around 9am my left shoe strap suddenly failed on me. pfft. putus? and i barely wear those? huhu.

ahh. thanks to my under-the-table-stiletto - i just slipped them on. less comfy, more formal, but ok-lah rather than having to go down to my car and get another shoe....damn, i must have not used the shoes for years!

then after zohor prayers i comfortably slipped on my red beaded flip flop. and "pleppp". when i looked down, my right flip flop putus!

waaaa

two favorite items in a day?

too much. just too much.

huhu. now i "have" to go shoe shopping. isk isk. *-*

-------
the office now blocks fb and blogspots and the sorts. sucks.
but it's alrite as i would now go here to spill my silliness. works fine especially when i barely have anything to do at work during this quiet season...

toodles!
