Aidilfitri 2011


Berlalu lah sudah Ramadhan... (dengan nada lagu Suasana Hari Raya, nyanyian Anuar & Elina) Sayu rasa hati, Salam Lebaran untuk semua, moga Aidilfitri kali ini lebih bermakna dari yg sebelum2 nya...
Ramadhan and Aidilfitri kali ni sangat bermakna buat saya, walaupun saya sangat jauh dari keluarga, mak, abah and adik beradik yg sangat saya rindui, but they are always close at heart and i'm really thankful for I'm always blessed with wonderful people around me, Mr.hubby, my children and also friends around here that made me feel important and loved.



So, first day of Raya, I prepared lemang, rendang daging, rendang ayam, nasik lemak sambal udang, apam pisang, kek coklat and also bingka daging.. haaaa, banyak tak? macam rajin je ye, kalau kat Malaysia asyik tunggu mak masak je. Now merasa la buat semua sendiri, sronok jugak sebenarnya. So, bile balik Mesia nanti, bole la jadi tukang masak di rumah mak hehe..



Yang paling spesyel, of coz la lemang tu hehe.. thanx to mak tersayang for the recipe.. ramai dah tanye camne wat lemang ni, so I'll post an entry on how to prepare this lemang :)




So ni lah tetamu2 kami. Actually this is Emir's family. Emir ni student kat sini, kawan2 die semua balik Malaysia for Raya, die je x balik, sebab family die datang beraya ngan die kat Deutschland ni. So ni la family Emir.
Mula2 beraya di rumah kak Azie, (telupa ambik gambar di rumah kak Azie), macam2 kak Azie masak, and sedap2, rendang daging, rendang ayam, lontong, nasik tomato, memang marvelous, terasa sungguh suasana Hari Raya, rugi nye telupe ambik gambar.. dah la kami semua berbaju Raya time tu..





Ni pulak cerita sebelum raya, parcel baju Raya sampai dari Malaysia..
Shawl ni hadiah dari kawan baik saya, dari kecik2 lagi, she's Masz, bersempena birhtday :) Thanx sangat2 masz, terharu aku, cantik sangat shawl ni, aku suka sangat !! Dah dua kali aku pakai, nanti aku tunjuk gambar ok :)



Ni pulak baju Raya dari Aunty Tie (my sister), untuk budak2 ni. Cantik sangat, tapi terbesar semuanye.. hehe
X bole la diorang nak pakai sangat, pakai untuk bergambar je la nampak nye :)
x pe la kak ti ye, tahun depan depan bole pakai lagi.



Ni la Fatini bergaya ngan baju Raya nye, tapi bukan die punya, ni Aleena punya hehe.. yg Aleena punye muat2 je utk die, yg die punye sekali ganda besar hehe.. so Fatini sorang je la bole bergaya ngan baju Raya.. ape pun, thanx to Aunty Tie for Barbie bag kecik tu, Fatini suke sangat, siap dah berebut2 ngan Aleena haha.. Rase nye die lebih excited ngan beg kecik tu kot dari baju Raya hehe..

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri semua, Maaf Zahir Batin :)

First Day @ School..


As usual, this story is a bit delayed.. Orang dah nak bukak cerita Raya, saya pulak baru nak cerita 'Hari pertama Afeef di sekolah' padahal dah 2 minggu dah ke sekolah, and memang dah basi sgt la cerita ni hehe..
Ape pun, nak jugak wat entry ni sebagai kenang-kenangan terindah hehe



Dats my boy! That thing he has in his hand is a gift from his previous kindergarten meant for his school. This is some sort of a tradition kot, every kid has one. And I personally think, Afeef punya paling comel ler hehehehe!!


Macam2 ade kat school Afeef ni..




Inside his classroom.





It's been two weeks, Every morning at 7.30am, Papa would take him to school and everybody must reach there by 7.55am. School finish at 11.50am everyday, hehe kejap je kan, sronok budak2 kat sini :)
So, my job is to fetch him from school everyday.. The school is only ten minutes away, but since it is located uphill, the journey has become half an hour for me and the two kids. I had to push the stroller up the hill, with only Aleena inside, that's if I'm lucky enough to persuade Fatini to walk, unfortunately, not everyday is my lucky day, she often wanted to stand at the back of the stroller, so I had to push both kids weighing approximately 26kg up the hill, while fasting and breastfeeding huhu.. can you just imagine... many days I just feel like nak 'berbuka puasa'.. huhu
But, it is a really good exercise for me, insyaAllah..
On the way back home is very relaxing, descending the hill took us only 10 minutes walk :)
The funny thing is, almost every time while we were heading home, we would bump into Afeef's classmate, most of them would scream excitedly from afar, from inside a car, from across the road,
"Halloooooo Afeef !!!"
And guess what, every time yg tegur ni, mesti budak perempuan... hehe... the most often is Emilia, the one sitting next to him now.. she is super friendly.. dengan mama ni skali die "Halooo" and "Tchus (bye)"
Nanti bila2 berkesempatan, I'll snap her photo, sanagt comel jugak Emilia ni :)



This how the school looks like from outside, ehem, abaikan budak boroi tu :P


So, everything went well for the past two weeks, Afeef has got two close friends already, Alhamdulillah, one is Bruno, (I dun have his photo yet) the other one neither me nor Afeef know his name hehe.. Afeef tau dah tapi die lupe pulak.. but last Friday when I pick him up, they were both walking hand in hand.. cute.. Afeef said they play a lot together but Afeef forgot his name.. ape laaa. haha..
Bruno's mom pulak very friendly, already planned to take Afeef to her house, oh rupe2 nye diorang ni memang pesyen nye camtu ye, bila dah anak nye ade kawan baik, mesti nak bawak ke rumah.. hehe.. ape2 je la... asalkan Afeef hepi :)
At least Bruno's mom ni bole cakap English la, jadi la, x la struggle mama ni nak cakap Deutsch yg ntah ape2 nih.. hehe

AnEh....


Lama tak menulis di blog ni, banyak cerita yg tertangguh, contoh nya cerita 1st day Afeef di Sekolah baru, kisah2 berbuka puasa, juadah2 berbuka puasa, etc etc.. Sebenarnye saya agak menyepikan diri dari dunia internet, baik blog ataupun facebook..
Ape pun, saya nak kongsi cerita ni, yang saya alami malam tadi..

Setiap hari macam biasa, lepas selesai solat tarawih, Fatini and Aleena pun dah mula merengek2 nak tido, Afeef pulak tido lebih awal dari tu sebab nak bangun pagi ke sekolah. So lebih kurang pukul 11 malam saya bawa Aleena masuk ke bilik tidur saya dan hubby, hubby pulak macam biasa teman Fatini tido di bilik die dulu. Kadang2 hubby tertido kat situ je terus sampai sahur, kdg2 klu Fatini tertido awal, hubby akan tido ngan saya dan aleena. Tapi kebanyakan waktu, saya dan aleena tido berdua aje, sebab Fatini ni salu lambat lena nya.
Malam tadi hubby nampak mengantuk sangat, Fatini pun camtu.. saya sendiri pun rase penat.. terfikir, yg malam tadi malam ke 23 ye, rugi pulak pukul 11 malam dah nak tido...
Ape pun, sambil susukan Aleena, saya masih dengar suara Fatini di bilik sebelah bersembang2 dengan hubby, x lama pastu saya pun terlelap.. agaknya ade la beberapa minit terlelap kot, tiba2 terjaga, ade bunyi mengejutkan saya, bunyi macam laptop hubby tertutup.. (laptop hubby ni memang ade bunyi 'klik' bile tertutup) so, dalam mamai mamai tu saya terus fikir ngan confidentnye, 'oooo hubby dah masuk bilik, sempat pulak berinternet, ingat kan mengantuk sangat tadi...'... saya pun automatically pusing la nak menghadap die, haaaaa terkejut nya saya, x de pun hubby, yg ade cuma aleena yg dah lena.. suasana sunyi sepi abis, the air was so still, suara Fatini pun dah x dengar lagi...
ait, bunyi ape tadi, ke saya mimpi??
Ok, saya abaikan aje, maybe angin kat luar ke ape ke.. walaupun tibe2 rase sikit seram pulak huhu..
Saya pun cuba la untuk tido balik, baru terlelap sekejap kot, tiba2 terjaga lagi, jam loceng atas meja tiba2 berbunyi pulak!! What on earth??!!
Jam loceng tu merangkap radio, which we hardly used!! Me and hubby always use our handfon as alarm clock. So alarm clock tu tibe2 berbunyi about pukul 11.45 malam, and dalam banyk2 time, nape la kul 11.45 malam baru nak bunyi kan, and bunyi pelik pulak tu.. masa tu rase dah seram lain macam.. saya cepat2 bangun and switch the alarm off, takut Aleena terjaga pulak nanti.. saya pun baring la semula, mata dah tak ngantuk, rase cam ade yg x kena. Saya cuba pejam jugak, agaknye ade la a few minutes kot before tiba2 saya rase cam pintu bilik terbukak. Saya bukak mata and terkejutnya, mmg betul pintu terbukak sikit, tapi x rase angin pun, x sempat nak fikir ape, tiba2 dengar bunyi pintu berdentum kuat, x sure dari depan ke dapur ke bilik solat ke or bilik Afeef and Fatini ke, tapi yg pasti bunyi tu dari dlm rumah. Immediately lepas bunyi pintu tertutup tu, terus pintu bilik saya pulak tertutup kuat macam ade angin , and yg pasti memang x de angin walau sikit pun, memang the air was so still !!!
Oh my, x dapat di gambarkan perasaan saya time tu, saya sangat2 harap bunyi pintu tertutup kuat mula2 tu ialah hubby yg kuar dari bilik budak2 and disebabkan die tutup pintu kuat, somehow terhasil la effect ape2 yg membuatkan pintu bilik saya tertutup tiba2 camtu.. huhu..
teori ape ntah, but I fixed my eyes on the door half expecting hubby to appear, but he never did.. masa tu saya dah seram x ingat, dah la my room was dimly lit, badan tiba2 x bole brgerak, trkaku... and then guess what?? Tiba2 jam loceng yg dah di switch off tadi berbunyi lagi dengan bunyi pelik nye... what??!!! Masa tu memang rase something amiss, something was really wrong..
I couldn't move, I kept thinking, x kan ade hantu bulan2 puasa ni huhu..
Then I got up, and switch off the alarm clock lagi skali, this time I pulled the plug off the socket. Haaaa nak bunyi lagi x agak nye?
Saya pun terkaku kejap, ape yg x kena ni, nak gi panggil hubby kat bilik budak2, tapi takut nak nak kuar bilik.. bole camtu? huhu..
Saya pun dok fikir2, x pandang keliling, sampai tepi katil, ingat nak baring balik, terpandang Aleena, alangkah terkejut nya saya, yang die memang tengah pandang saya and she gave me this one weird look.. selalu klu die trjaga malam mesti die akan nangis dulu, x pernah lagi die bukak mata diam2 camtu, badan pun tak bergerak.. how long had she been staring at me?
Saya terus cakap ngan die, "Aleena sayang..."
And die pandang je, without any reaction, macam sy ni stranger pulak wohoo..
that really did me, saya terus kuar bilik, x pandang kiri kanan and masuk bilik budak2.. hubby tido nyenyak, beberapa kali saya kejut die baru die trjaga.. saya pun cakap yg saya dengar bunyi macam2, and saya takut, hubby mamai2 bangun and tanye kul brape.. wahhh saya x perasan jam, dlm panik and takut, seram tadi, sy dah terlupa utk tengok waktu.. rupe2 nye 12 tengah malam.. haaaaaa... lagi brtambah seram...
Hubby terus enak di buai mimpi, saya pulak x bole tido sampai la pukul 2 pagi kot, terkumat kamit baca surah Al-Fatihah and ayat kursi and sebagainye.. rasa takut tu ade je wlupun hubby dah ade sama.. huhu... rasa nak ke toilet pun saya tahan, takut punye pasal.. adohai, malu la dengan anak2 kalau la diorang tau mama takut gi toilet ngeh ngeh..

Tapi ni bulan Ramadhan, apekah explanation utk kejadian malam tadi? Jin bole ganggu kita dalam bulan Ramadhan ke?? Tapi yg pelik nye, dah setahun lebih dok rumah ni x pernah ade skali pun benda2 camni jadi.. saya terfikir pulak, malam 23, could it be malam Lailatul Qadar? I was fully awake lepas kejadian, sangat sesuai untuk beribadat, tapi saya takut utk ke bilik air ambik wudhu pulak huhu.. so sy buat ape yg mampu je..
Tapi, klu betul malam lailatul Qadr, I dun think I deserve to experience any signs of the most special night.. ***sigh***
So, what could be the explanation?

Friends and a newborn baby..



Last wekend had been a hectic one, Mike had invited us for lunch at his place on Saturday but we had to turned him down coz hubby had planned to attend a talk by Prof.Dr. Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie (the former president of Indonesia) in Aachen. Coincidently, a friend in Bonn gave birth to her first baby on Thursday if i'm not mistaken, so I've decided to come along and pay her a visit. We stayed at a friends home in Bonn, so on Saturday hubby went for the talk and me and two other friends went to visit Yla and her baby :)



On the way to the hospital, Zinnirah our hostess had informed me earlier that Diyana her friend who's been living in Bonn for two years now would join us. When I first saw her, I had this familiar feeling that I've seen her before or even know her.. but where?? I boggled my mind for a while but couldn't quite figure it out.. but since she didn't say anything bout me looking familiar or anything, I just ignored the feelings..
So we made our way to the hospital..


That's Yla and her baby boy.. so cute :)


Zinnirah, Yla and me..



Cute kan? Amyr Danish namenye :)



That's Diyana.. she looks so familiar, but we hadn't had the chance yet to dig on each other's story, coz we were all busy talking to Yla, listening to her giving birth experience, and also busy photographying hehe..



The room is huge and comfortable too, but still, given all the wonderful facilities, I don't think I'm ready for another baby hehe..


So, when we were done, we've finally had the chance to talk, then terbongkar la semuanya... no wonder Diyana looks so familiar, the first thing I discovered was that we were in the same school before, Sekolah Kebangsaan Gombak Setia, but she's 4 years younger than me, what's the connection then? Korek2 lagi, ooooo rupe2 nye her house is only a few houses away from my mom's home in Gombak!! What a coincidence!! and not just that, korek2 lagi rupe2 nye she is my younger sister's friend!! Achso.... They knew each other so well, ye la she's my sister's age haha..
She knows my mother coz my mom is a former teacher there, she knows exactly where my mom's house is located, she said she passed by there quite often when she was in Malaysia haha.. now she's married to a Mesir guy who works here and will probably stay here for good..
Kelakar bila fikir2 balik, bertemu kami di bumi Deutschland, and yes what a small world!!



We had an awesome trip, Fatini jugak dapat doll baru, Rapunzel, rezeki Fatini la, sebab tgh sale giller2 kat Bonn, so Rapunzel ni dah jadi half prize, klu x de diskaun x de la mama nak belikan.. sebab doll yg ade pun dah bergolek2 aje kat rumah, rambut kusut and sebagainye hehe.. Rapunzel ni, mama pulak yg jadi tukang sikat rambutnye hari2, sabar je la huhu..


A Visit to Florian's Home.



Ok, story isn't over yet... after that awesome trip to Bonn, we had to attend an invitation to Florian's home. They had invited us over for a bbq. Thought we were not gonna be able to make it becoz it had been a hectic wekend, but since they were so sincere and really wanted us to come, so we tried our best to make it :) and I'm glad we did :) We reached their place about 2pm.
Surprised to hear Florian's dad talking to my hubby bout fasting month, he even mentioned the word 'Ramadhan'.. I must say, he is a very knowledgeable man :)


They have a very beautiful house, I really really loved it.. with a tiny lawn for the kids to play..
Sampai2 je, terus semua busy nak main hehe



Florian and Afeef pulak just can't be away from each other in that few hours they had together.. so sweet..
Florian's mom said, Florian isn't happy anymore in kindergarten without Afeef there and he even keeps one of Afeef's photo at home.. awwwww, I felt so sad when I heard that... not only that I understand how he feels without his best friend around, but for the fact that someone here really2 appreciate Afeef as a friend... I don't know if Afeef will ever find a friend as nice as Florian here in Deutschland :(


The lawn is huge, very suitable for a bbq too..


Nice rite??



Inside is even more impressive, the whole house look so spic and span.. I'm very impressed...
Not a single dust was found, the glass door and all windows were shiny and glimmering..



The kitchen is even more impressive, everything is properly arranged.. :)



Papa, bawak2 bersabar la haha.. we were served with rice (something like fried rice, but their version), glass noodle, and some bbq meat, prawns etc..



mmmmm... Aleena's enjoying her meal.. Florian's mom so kind she even went to the cellar to get this baby chair for Aleena.. though I've insisted for her not to trouble herself, but she still wants to :)



After we had our lunch, they took us to a nearby park and to get there we must use this route.. Hutan rimba haha.. but nice and the air so fresh. Afeef and Florian couldn't get their hands off each other, I'm touched by the sight of them holding each others hand and the way Florian hugged Afeef, it's just soooo sweet :)



hehe... wonder where the stroller came from? The one that Aleena sits in belongs to Florian when he was a baby :) And look who's pushing the stroller :D



By the time we reached the park, Aleena's already asleep..




Tengok la Fatini pun dah manja dengan mama Florian laaa hehe..






After that, we went back to their place and had some coffee, cakes and cookies..
Great, the kids loved it..



About 6pm, we've decided to go home, they'd packed us some food (adoi baik nye) for sahur, so I didn't have to cook anything for sahur. And not just that, they'd even sent us home with their car.. and then make another plan to meet again next time, maybe we'll go to the zoo together..
They are so nice, I'm so touched by their kindness :)
Look at how Aleena pun dah mesra with Florian's mom :)

Though I felt a bit awkward sometimes for not being able to fully understand what they were saying nor unable to say what I wanted to say, but this is not some kind of a hindrance for us to hang out together and also this will be the turning point for me to be a bit serious in learning Deutsch... hehe..
Seriously, I started reading Deutsch book again, and learn the language online and also planning to register for the next level, (sblom ni dah plan nak berenti seketika hehe)...
Anyway, it was a moment I must cherished and glad that things just get better and better.. Alhamdulillah..
