Ya Allah, Rahmatilah Ibu kesayangan ku.

I have recently lost my beloved mother. How dearly I miss her and love her. I'm going through a stage were every memory is coming back in flashes bringing smiles and laughter. How much I adore her for her love and strength. Anybody who knows her will confirm how loving she is and how she will do everything for her loved ones. I can't write too much without shedding tears so I will stop here.

I love you Mama!!

I will pray everyday that Allah place you among those who are blessed and loved by Him

Who is this Alexis Sanchez

Summer is here (well not Here in OZ but ....ahhh u know what i mean). In the football world it means transfer season. This is when clubs go shopping/stealing other players from other clubs. Like usual big clubs fight for the best players. I keep hearing about Sanchez from Udinese (chilean international). Everybody wants him... Barca, Man city, Man U, Real and others. So i decided to look him up. after a few vids and reading his bio. I think he is fantastic. Looks like a smart skillful player with confidence. I especially like him cause he is the type of players that run towards and take on a defender. I just hope he is consistent at it... he surely will go far if he does. Another thing I hope he leaves Serie A (that is why I dont really know him) and goes somewhere I can follow him like Champs league or LA liga or EPL. Wish him all the best and hope he can fulfill his potential to entertain football fans like us. Enjoy the vid.

Visiting Dino's

The kids are into dinosaurs nowadays. We rather have them involved in dinos rather than 'lady gaga' or 'ben 10'. So we decided to have a visit to the dino show in the city so they can see 'real' like dinosaurs. Enjoy the video.

The first year in Melbourne - part 1

It has been a year since we arrived in Melbourne. How time flies. After each milestone or 'check ins' i always like to ponder back what we/I have done in that time. So this post is a summary of how our first year was in Melbourne

Struggle but surviving the change and moving. Still remembered how panicked i was before getting a house and a job. Stress giler especially financially. I realized how expensive and confusing Melbourne can be. Wouldn't do that again.

Zareef first birthday in melbourne was a real quiet one compared to the ones he has had before. We always had a party for our birthdays - any excuse to get together is a great excuse - those were the days. I have always wanted to get Zareef this present. In a way it represents a little why we moved here. couldn't even think of getting it before i got a job here.

My birthday was a damped one as well.. no complains i think when you past 18 you don't really want people to know how old you are

Little by little we started exploring our surrondings... From the zoo to the beaches to the markets to the parks... we started falling in love with Melbourne our new home...

Had a few gathering as well just to make sure we feell melayu and keeping to the roots..

Mt hotham was a real memorable expedition... had lots of fun and experiences there... the theme of that trip was 'extreemeee'.

Maz birthday wasnt that bad... we had lunch beside the yarra river.... it was lovely day too...

Puasa and raya came... we had the open puasa gathering and bunga api which I really appreciate.. but when raya came I was really sad cause I was drenched in oil instead of wuduk for sembahyang raya.... the only day i regret being here instead of Mesia... we also had the open houses which just bring backs home..

Thats it for now.. i'll write more later.

Stunt Boy Zareef

On Easter Break we travelled to Sydney and visited a few interesting places including Darling Harbour. When we were there, a street performer wanted a volunteer from a crowd for his show. Zareef put his hand up and was chosen. He had good fun and loved it. We all had a good laugh and Zareef made us proud. Enjoy the video.
