Where's the update?

It looks like the wife is extremely busy now since the lecture has just started. I reckon she has got something that she wanted to share which includes our London break and her birthday... 

Daddy to be....

I was told my readiness score to be a father is 28/30. After she browsed through a pregnancy website. Honestly, at the moment i am not ready to be a father. Speaking of readiness, i wasnt ready to be a husband when i decided to get married to my dearly wife.In recent months, i would not say that i was well prepared. But what is the exact definition of ready? Prepared? Only the creator knows. All these has to do with my believes to my religion. Never in my life that i asked so much prayers until about a year ago. Both of us agreed that when we put our faith to Him, and continously perform our duaas, He will make way for us....INSHAALLAH..

her first and final exam

Makan di Nandos

School life in Warwick Business School

It is almost the end of term one. I have another two terms to go with my MSc program.

Time flies. And yes, exam is just around the corner. ZzzzzZZZZZ *cakap pasal exam teros ngantuk.bai.

There were ups and downs throughout my first term. Especially when it comes to group work.

In class, we have 8 syndicate groups which consist of 9-11 members.Working with 10 group members from different backgrounds, with different opinion and character has been quite challenging.

I have seen members of the group slamming table, throwing papers, raising voice at each other, broken into tears and walking away from meeting.

However,  I do believe these disputes occur because everyone is actually doing their job. They just have different opinions and contradictory thoughts which made us hard to select which content need to be presented. Well, thats much better than having freeloaders in the group aint it?

I would say it was a totally new experience for me. Harini gaduh-gaduh, besok boleh jumpa kat class gelak sama-sama pastu lepak gi lunch skali. In the end, all the marks that we got were worth the argument. (Tibe-tibe teringat masa undergrad dulu, ade sorang group member ni kene tegur sikit tak buat kerja terus sentap taknak cakap sampai final semester.haih!)

Our first presentation for the term, we had to implement an intranet system for  a business school. We named our project : FIGMEC Intranet Project. F-rance, I-india, G-reece, M-alaysia, E-ngland and C-hina, 1Global sangat kan!? *kononla.

My part was to generate the governance policy for the intranet users. (Present pakai baju kurung. *Maklumla  perut tak muat nak masuk suit dah.)

Lunch celebration after our last presentation for the term. (Quoting Apex statement from Beautifulnara "saya tak usik benda2 atas meja tu")

Sonok la korang. Masa group meeting gaduh-gaduh kan? Ni la salah satu contoh gambar tahyul yang kene upload kat facebook. Indah-indah belaka kan!

Appreciation to wife

We started living together in Coventry for 2 months now. I can say that I have been blessed for these period. I have been jobless for a month. During those days, I was busy settling down our new home as best possible. She was still adapting to the pregnancy then. I have to admit there were a lot of new challenges in terms of  understanding her conditions during the first trimester.

Alhamdulillah. The second month was getting better. I've got a job with a good company. I have to learn a new business knowledge and at the same time I was trying to accommodate my wife as best possible. Things did change the other way around this time. She has started feeling better. She has started cooking frequently. Every breakfast, every lunch and every dinner. Almost everyday now, I have got something in my lunch box. Stored neatly in my lovely briefcase given as my 29th birthday present. The celebration was really romantic. After I came back from Stuttgart, she planned a nice weekend at a hotel nearby. We didn't want to go somewhere far as the weather was unpredictable.

We commute to work + uni together. Beating the traffic using our own short-cuts route. Talking and discussing about us. On how to be better individuals. We appreciate on how our families have given us endless support. We keep in touch with our family so they could feel our presence around them back at home. I could not ask for more when Allah has given me the work which is close to her university. Sometimes, I take her to dinner after her long day in lectures. They were my treats for her on her effort in studies especially when she is carrying a baby.

The last few days were even better. She is even more happy because she managed to cook the food that she always wanted. Mainly on sea food. I like them all. We thank God that He has given us continuous rezq even we thought we have got no money. When we see food on table, we think that we are given a lot of rezq from Him.

I am going to continue praying for her safety, health and happiness. Ameen.

1st ultrasound scan

I was the last patient under Julie's appointment list. She played with my tummy to the extent i felt ticklish. According to Julie : This is the most behaved baby for today! (Harap2 behave sampai bila-bila ye. Amin!)
