I Wish U Were Here :(

I've grown up well. Very well indeed! I ate every foods that i love. I've learned that life is full of disappointments, whr ppl u trust th most will sooner or later let u down. I've learned that words can be deceiving but yeah, th truth always lies in a person's eyes. I've learned that everything can change in th blink of an eye and tears often come w/out invitation. I've through th ups and downs w/out any regrets. I work really hard to make sure i got everything that i want (u used to fulfill everything that i want back then). I got my own money now and most importantly i live my life pretty well (u shall proud of me, don't u?). I learned a lot about life since th day u left (i missed u everyday, u know right?). I learned to stand on my own feet instead of hoping for any helps from other ppl (u know right, im that type?). It wasn't easy at first, but now im getting used to it (im that strong!). I've learned well from every step i took. Really. 

PLEASE, Take My Apologies

Wan Ahmad Hilmi

It took me a few days to write this blog since I heard the sad loss of Mad. I was deeply shocked to learn of untimely death of Wan Ahmad Hilmi. I got tears in my eyes everytime I'm looking at his pics. He was so bright & nice. I officially met him first time in July 2010, when I started to study for KPLI in IPG KPI, Bandar Baru Bangi. I am deeply sadden & distraught at his passing. I will definitely miss him so..SO much. He was such a lovely, sympathetic, funny, intelligent, delicate, gracious & very special person. It's an honor to have been his friend these past few years. He was a very thoughtful person ever! He was always supportive for me to learn & understand IPG KPI way of life (since i kept on complaining of our IPG's rules and all). I know how difficult it will be to replace a man of such exceptional ability & character. And yeah, even after I came back to Sabah in the early of 2011, we often had exchanged emails, calls, texts. He always gave me good advice with a little bit humorous every time i need it. He was such a wonderful person in the short amount of time i knew him. And yes, I'm glad I was able to meet & befriend with him. I always admired him for his kindness, strength & the ability of truly knowing who he was. I would have liked to come for the funeral in Besut but I'm working in Sabah at the time so was unable to make it. This is so sad. I just can't tell of how sad I am. But I knew that Allah loves him more. He'll always stay in my heart with his sweetest smile. My thoughts & prayers are always with him. May his soul rest in peace.

Ughh.. *ImInDilemma*

Im in a situation which a difficult choice has to be made between equally undesirable alternatives. Ughh.. This is bad! Life is always like this la, where things don't always go as planned. Hence, i can't even think anything right now. And that really pissed me off! Oh Almighty, please help me. I begged U! Make things go well please... PLEASE... Amin Ya Rabb.
