1 Year On ... and never fail to amaze me ...

Time flies on ...
Been a really great 1 year together with you my dear ...
And I pray and hope that we'll be together in many years to come ...
And will be together in a better place in the HereAfter.

I cherish every moment spend with you ...

Jangan pernah berhenti berdoa untuk keluarga kita,
Demi menggapai rahmat Allah dan maghfirahNya.

Amin.

What we do ...

Alhamdulillah ...

Well, as you might know, kita udah mulai tinggal di rumah baru.
Masih berantakan.
Masih ngerasa perlu ini dan itu ... dan ini ... dan itu lagi.

Tadi pagi2 abies shubuh, lgsg ngepel kamar mandi dan dapur. Coz those are the only areas with tiles. Nyikat shower, jemur baju2 yg baru dicuci semalem ... terus, lgsg mandi dan off to work.

That's pretty early activities on my account .. hehehe. Biasanya abies bangun shubuh, tidur lagi, dan kantor sebrang rumah jadinya yah, nyantai2 aja ...

We want to make this a real good place to call our home.
Not our own yet. Tapi insha Allah, someday, one day :)

Yesterday our white goods and Tv arrived ... finally. Kulkas, Air Evaporizer, and LCD TV.
Funny thing is, the TV doesn't come with an RF cable ... dammit. Udah seneng2 keluarin dari box, siap2 mau nonton Australian Open and Ramsay Kitchen's Nightmare ... and ... there's no bloody cable.

Owh well ... work time.

Wassalaam.

Alhamdulillah ... akhirnya, pindah juga :D

Alhamdulillah ... akhirnya kita udah pindah rumah juga ke Albion. :D
Thanks for our friends who helped us move in ... Acha, Arief, Diki, Fadly, Dahnul. Thanks for Pandu for lending his car and send his personal assistance (read: Diki ... :P) ...

Now, it's nesting time :P

Somehow Diki was busy planning the design of the room as well .. tennis table over there, billyard table over there ... etc ... hey man ... our house is not that big ... !

I'd luv to get a stainless steel chair and coffee table outside on the private court yard ... So I can have a sip of coffee in the morning, reading books. And when the baby comes, will let the baby out on the morning sun shine ...

Really had a good night sleep ... around 5AM, the birds were singing on tree branches outside our room ... wow ... can't get that in the City area ... :D

Anyway ... we'll look forward to living a 'new' life here ... yay. Alhamdulillah. makasih ya Allah, sudah memberikan kemudahan bagi kami.

Amin.

Role Modeling

Baby

Bntar lagi baby lahir yah?
Ah ... ayah masih juga belum bisa jadi panutan terbaik buat baby.
Maaf yah baby ...

Tapi ayah akan berusaha terus untuk jadi ayah yang shaleh,
Yang arief dan bijak, buat baby dan Bunda ...
Yang bisa memberikan nafkah yang halal dan bersih untuk sekeluarga ...
k baby?

Do'ain ayah, biar sumber rezeki yang ayah dapatkan itu halal ...
Bukan hasil meras,
Bukan hasil korupsi,
Bukan hasil nindas orang lain,
Bukan hasi jual diri ke dunia yang fana ini ...
Bukan dari segala sumber yang diharamkan oleh Allah,

Karena, kalo sumber nya udah kotor, maka, Allah akan nanyain ke ayah pas di hari Akhirat nanti ...
"hey ... kamu ... dapet duit dari mana? ... kamu belanjakan uang mu kemana??
Dapetin nya dengan cara yang halal atau engga?
Korupsi? Jual Diri?
Buat belanjain apa aja?
Inget sedekah ke saudara2, orang2 miskin dan anak2 yatim piatu engga?

Kalo pemasukan uang Ayah itu haraam, maka apa yang dimakan ke badan ... haraam juga ...
Hmmm ... tanggung jawab na beurat juga yah ...

Makanya baby ... do'ain ayah dan bunda terus yah ...
Sing bageur ...
Sing shalehah ...
Sing sayang ka orang tua
Sing jadi orang yang bisa menyebarkan manfaat dan kebaikan buat orang lain ...

Agar kita semua, bisa jadi panutan yang baik. Yah sayang yah?
Karena, kita ini hidup jadi contoh ...
Lebih mudah dan lebih gampang da'wah dengan memberikan contoh,
daripada dengan kata2.

Apa yang dilakukan oleh kita, terekspose dengan mudah ke orang2 disekeliling kita.

Uh ... apalagi kalo orang terkenal yah ... khan banyak yang ngenalin tuh masyarakat sekitar nya ... tanggung jawab na lebih gede lagi tuh baby ...

Suasana kerja di kantoran juga begitu baby ... khan orang2 bule semua tuh ... ngasih da'wahnya yah ... dengan bisa kerja professional, dengan integritas tinggi, dll ...


Udah ah baby ... nanti kita ngobrol2 lagi yah di rumah... hmm ... baby skarang udah tambah bulet yah ... maxud na di perut Bunda ... :P
Tambah gede.
Engga sabar pengen cium2in pipi baby ... :D


Alhamdulillah bunda nya udah sehat.
Mudah2an Bunda & Baby dikasih sehat terus sama Allah, insha Allah. Amin.

Luv u baby ...
Luv u bunda ...

I Need My Coffee (With The Usual Companion Of Course)

Couple of days back, I went pass Hardware lane in the city ... around Lonsdale st area.
I used to work around this place, as a sushi-cook. Very tiring working hours, from 3am - to 11am ... at times to 1pm. Then if I have classes (I took my masters degree during that period), I'd continue to go for my classes (usually until 5pm or 9pm at night).

Anyway, as I went pass the coffee shops, with the sound of jazz whispering through the alleyway ... I wanted to stop at one of the cafe, drink coffee and enjoy the ambiance + music from the talented jazz players on the other corner.
At times like this, I usually send sms to couple friends to meet up ...

But then, its either some of them are on holiday period and getting away overseas, or some of them already gone back for good from Melbourne scattered everywhere around the world.

Ah ... yes, it is always the people that make a difference.

Latte always taste the same.
Conversation over coffee is what really counts.

Do'ain yah ...

Well, today was just a regular day like any other day.
Went to work this morning. Then had an appointment with the dentist to do a tooth filling.

Then, Ranie called in the afternoon.
She said she had some bleeding ...

Hmmm ... not good.

I picked her up, and we went to Royal Women Hospital ... emergency area.
Had a doctor ... did a pap-smear, and the doctor suggested that she should stay overnight at the hospital.

IF the bleeding continues tonight/tomorrow, for the next 24 hours ... then they will need to do a caesarian operation on her, to lift the baby up ... premature, as she's now only 7 months pregnant // 26-27 weeks. But that is just a possibility. Otherwise, if there's no more bleeding, she can go home tomorrow afternoon.

We called up our parents in Jakarta and in Qatar, informed them and asked for their prayers ... for Ranie, for the baby, and for us all.

Thanks Acha for picking me up at the hospital so I can Ran's things at home and get back ASAP.
Thanks for Indri, Fadil and Arief for the visit and accompany Ran while I was away to get whatever she needs for the hospital stay. And thanks for buying the food too :P Was for the 'big' baby ... hahaheaha ... :D

Mohon do'a. Untuk yang terbaik. Amin.

Time for me to reflect.
