Merdeka vs Ramadhan

31st August, all Malaysian including me..celebrating our independence day and of course along with the 1st Ramadhan..luckily nice timing because muslim's able to prepare themselves for this barakah month since tomorrow will be public holiday..the 31st August fell on Sunday so the next day that is Monday will be the public holiday..that is the public holiday system in Malaysia.

Went to see my old friend Mariam today, who just coming back from Japan for summer holiday..hmm..if I am not mistaken (summer or winter right now at Japan?). Look a bit chubby. Maybe she is having fun doing her PHD.. Gosh, she is too young to be a Dr Mariam.. but she was and (I believe)is working very2 hard for that. I think she is my only friend I can remember that was very committed in study. How can I be just like her?

No.. I don't think so..because I like the way I am right now.. I don't want to be anyone else.. I just want to be me..just me (wow..same dialogue Harry Potter did..hihihihihi---> addicted to Harry Potter lately) I have a loving family, a good career, nice friends.. that enough for me.. I don't want to be greed.. I just hoping that I could live in a very simple life and happily ever after (just like Shrek and Fiona) and the most important thing is..live with the bless of Allah's ..this thing most people have forgotten..including me..

Importance of Swimming..

Last weekend i went for a trip to Lake Kenyir (hulu terengganu). Joining the non verified club (kelab kembara skbr)..hehehe..under sharifah's leadership..my husband (the handsome guy)following either..else was of course sharifah herself (the 'cemerlang' teacher), haslina (the intermediate swimmer), rosniza (the savior), haninadia (the somebody's becoming girlfriend), shahniza (the normal teacher), zura (sharifah's friend)---->geng the anak2 dara and also cikgu rahim (the 'not' good fisher), azmi noor (the skema guy), nizam (the good swimmer+fisher), shahfuri (the somebody's becoming boyfriend), man (the 'ganaz' looking guy..but not at all) and aryfuddin (the metrosexual guy)..all together was 14 person..
All of us went there convoy with 3 cars.. departed on 12.30 friday midnight and arrived about 8.30 am at hulu terengganu. Then having 'nasi dagang' that rosniza's mother made for breakfast..very2 delicious and also with nice desert (kuih ice-cream)..then directly to the dam..about half an hour waiting for the boat, we filled the precious time with....snap pictures of course!! (able to see at http://bilis81.fotopages.com). About 10.30 am the boat brought us to our destination which was the Sungai Lasir. Sungai Lasir was very2 beautiful river with the waterfall..still unpolluted..clean and green (means the area is very deep). Just after the boat has been parked, all of the girls went to the Sg Lasir to take a bath.. We were really having fun taking a bath and swimming.. we talked..we laughed..we were very2 happy.. but the nice moment became a tragedy.. one of us drown and almost died......to be continued

Very2 tired laa.. i continue this tomorrow k?

ok..it's time for me to share the most unforgetable incident that happened to us there..

When Nieza cried saying that Haslina was drown, i saw she was not quit far from me and others..and i thought that situation was not really dangerous because she just about 1 meter from us (the shallower area)..and then Sharifah cried and ask me and other to hold each other and tried to reach Haslina..we've done it but we failed..that area was deep actually..
Then suddently Haslina disappear..and i saw her in the middle of the river..i didn't know how suddenly she could be there..there was Nieza (the only one who could swim) tried to grab her..but she was unable to save Haslina because she was not strong enough..she's a girl, what do you aspect..then i could see Haslina's hands struggle hopelessly..there was no one could save her..all of us depend on Nieza..but Nieza also almost drown..
all of us cried for help..
We were lucky because my husband, din and a kid from the boat was not far from us searching for worms..

When there was no sign of Haslina..no wave..no bubble at all, then i realized that i will never see Haslina again..serious..i just remember i cried "abang, tolong..Haslina" but in my mind..Haslina was dead that time..

And when i saw Haslina came out to the surface and grasp to Nieza's leg, i relieved..and my husband grab and pull them from going down into the water again..all of hug her along with tears...

To all readers..it's really important to know how to swim..not to save people but to save yourself..and a good parents should train their children how swimming earlier because kids are easy to learn in an early age..and another thing i have learned, don't panic..try to be cool when there is dangerous situation happened..trust me..and once again i want to say..learn how to swim..it is really2 important.. beside, it's a sunnah..right?
