first step towards master program

OFFICIALLY....tonight is the BEGINNING of my journey to become a master's student ..insyaallah..

tonight is the night where i can think properly and act accordingly towards applying for HLP to take my master next year...but hell!!! i didnt know it was THIS HARD to apply for HLP!!! aku ingatkan kalau buat kat oversea je susah....buat local pun susah ke?

ok, let me explain briefly about HLP...HLP is a shortform for Hadiah Latihan Persekutuan where govt officers can take this opportunity to further their studies in master or phD.. u hv to submit an application together with a proposal and if u r selected, u will be going for an interview...if everything went well, then only u will be given HLP. apa yg bestnye HLP tu? uuuuuuiii....bayangkan ko study for 2 yrs with sponsorship from govt...dahla tu, ko dpt cuti belajar bergaji penuh lak tu...not forgetting ada elaun lagik!!!

tp the real reason why most govt officer amik HLP is not because of the money benefit...tp dlm dunia skang nih, mmg master tu dah melambak...kalau tak amik skang, salah2, staffs sendiri nanti ada master..

back to my OWN STORY...after doing some research (kononnya...) aku pun bercadang la nak amik master of management ni..tp nak carik topik punya la susah...think aida think!!!!!

CAHAYA KEBERUNTUNGAN

sesetengah org dilahirkan sungguh beruntung...in fact aku berpeluang untuk kenal dengan seseorang yangmacam tu..kenapa aku kata dia bertuah? sebab dr schooling time sehingga la kerja, eventhough result tak bagus tapi dia manage to secure a place in boarding school yg glamour and jugak a place in menara gading..well, mungkin itu rezeki org....kenapa plak aku bangkitkan perkara ini??

ini semua bermula sebab aku baru tahu nama aku AIDA dalam islam bermaksud KEBERUNTUNGAN...buat kawan2 yg terer arab, sorry la kalau salah, tp ini based on one books pasal nama-nama anak yg aku jumpa kat popular ikano (ye b...i went there with u remember?) i was surprised jugak sebab setahu aku, AIDA takde maksud...

anyway, sepanjang 31 tahun aku hidup ni, nak kata hidup aku selalu beruntung pun tak jugak, i have my ups and downs, and hidup aku mmg tak smooth sailing all the time...contohnya, i did failed BADLY during my degree time...yepp, penah dapat below 2.00!!

but there are times when my stars are shining brightly...for example, aku tak penah merasa susah untuk dapat kerja eventhough aku start as kerani sambilan, naik plak jadi pegawai kontrak and sekarang alhamdulillah kerja tetap..

so...jika benar namaku bermaksud CAHAYA KEBERUNTUNGAN...aku memang bersyukur..thanx ayah for giving me a meaningful name....

bachelorette party

what is a bachelorette party?

kalau ikut cara western, it is a party where the bride and groom will have their last party as single person, thus their friends will organise party yg pepelik la...ada male stripper la (for bride), ada half naked ladies la..(for groom) tp takkan la kita nak ikut cara tu kan??

masa hanitah dulu, we just went to guoman, port dickson and have fun kat sana...silapnya, its only a weekend escapade je..mana taknye, pegi ari sabtu, balik ari ahad..it was fun tho really...hanitah ngan antique dia yg amik our sexy video..(me, elina and aleysha)

guoman from far.....

then for elina's party, we went to cameron highlands...yg nih ok sikit...we stayed at century pines resort...eventho ada sikit tak best here and there, basically we had such a GREAT FUN!!!! only girls...main uno (aleysha won all the time!!!), makan strawberries, makan steamboat, do stupid things...not forgetting makan scones kat bala's....that was a treasure!!!

(yg pegi only me, elina, aleysha and farah...the two mommies cannot go as they have other

commitment...)

gambar cameron..(i'm bad at taking pictures laaa)

and when its my turn, the batch mate girls bagi idea to do treatment at spa...kat vila manja ada buat private treatment, tp kene minimum 6 person, kat sri serumpun plak ada pakej pengantin but i dont think so ada private party treatment cenggitu...tp i prefer sri serumpun....value for money of course!!!!

best nyer kalau ada org pamper aku cenggini for free

kalau diaorg dah decide, blh citer experience kat spa nanti...

nasib baik ari nih tak ujan

ari nih sbb it's a public holiday, so aku pun amik kesempatan la nak berexercise...i know..i know...dah cuti 3 hari pesal la last day baru nak exercise..at least aku buat jugak kan??

this is also a new side of me yg will love to exercise, not because dah nak naik pelamin.. (itu alasan minor je..) tp i need to boost back my confidence level ...all this while, aku tak kata aku gemuk, and in fact i am very much happy and comfortable with my plus size..tp once in a while, ada jugak la terdetik, kene kuruskan sikit nih..

so, with the help of exercising and amik herbalife, i can and WILL achieve my goal!!!! yieehaaa..

so, today around 6pm, aku pun suruhla ayah antar gi joging kat taman jaya...weather cantik..org pun tak ramai...so dgn confidentnye i told my dad, "no need to pick me up ayah, i'm going to walk home after jogging nanti...." and with that aku pun start la berlari-lari anak...tp alangkah tak syoknye...baru 2 round taman jaya tu (haah, tak sampai pun 2.4km)...kilat berbunyi, and silly me, tak bawak hp...so, kenela balik segera..

well, all in all, tak puas hati dgn exercise today, tp it's a start..tgh planning nak joging kat putrajaya ngan ptd friends...ikhlas, ck, arab, irah, adi....jom!!!!

new azam...new me...

ok...this is it...now i want to be the new me...
how to be the new me?

i think, lepas nih aku kene ubah perception with blogging...yepp, dulu i hv this stigma sapa yg tulis blog tu just nak glemer je...tp i like to read their writing!!! and then after having a lot of thought...rasanya blogging is one way of releasekan ur tension..so what kalau org tak baca blog aku and so what kalau ada org terasa with my writing?? this is my blog....tp i will try my very best not to disclose names and any p&c yg related with work....aiseh, under OSA tu nanti...and lagik satu, b is reading this blog...kan b....

there are lots of things that i want to write...tp i think i will put it under different categories...it will be on topics like:
1. exercise
2. friends
3. work
4. family
5. wedding preparation....and so on....so.....lets begin aida!!!

susahnya nak beli rumah...

this is my second attemp in getting loan to buy my parents hse..the first one, applied kat bank islam...last year october...memula tu, mcm chances loan approve tu sangat la cerahnya....al-maklumla, kengkonon my salary tu dah ok, potongan pun tak banyak...kalau tak masuk credit card..skali tu, diaorg check using ctos la ccriss la...tak lepas la plak..

2nd time...settlekan dulu all the credit cards, baru apply kat cimb...hopefully lulus la kali nih..

u see, my biggest problem is i'm going to buy my parents' hse...kalau ikut title aku as government officer, baikla aku buat loan ngan bhg pinjaman perumahan tuha....interest pun cuma 4% je....tapi sbb dah kuar pekeliling since 1980s lebih kurang, skang nih tak blh beli umah family member...jadik terpaksa la mencarik loan lain..

tp ini pun baru plan pertama...i was thinking to sell my pj hse after this...nak jugak rasa umah baru, tp masa tu nanti insyaallah kelayakan beli umah dah naik dah...blh la pakai loan govt plak..
