Twentieth October

Today could become one of finest day in my life. 20th October is Alex's and Nia's birthday. They celebrated their happy moments humbly. I really loved to see they're growing and becoming more playful. This was also the first time they had a video call with Kelvin. Alex is sort of a coy boy since his English is not yet good. But at the end, he could show his smile to Kelvin to just say hi. Few months back then, he was that enthusiastic to call 'Uncle Kelvin', that's how he called Kelvin. I just wonder what Alex would do and really want to spot his first impression to meet Kelvin for the first time later. Anyways, happiest birthday to Alex and Nia. You guys are amazing souls with gorgeous spirits. I truly miss you guys. There will be great days for all of us to gather, sharing nice moments, laughter out loud, cooking and enjoying good food, and discussing about plans for the family.


Not only celebrating the birthday, Kelvin and I had 2 online IELTS classes. This was so fun to do. While doing the test, we discussed about the best possible answers, lol. That's cheating, kids. Don't try this at home, ok. Our score is getting better, especially the listening and grammar. We got perfect scores in grammar. Probably we would have daily IELTS sessions together. We still have times till next December. Kelvin also does his best, and next time he does it, there will be no assistance for him. Big boy don't cheat. 


Today was a productive day. Even if I'm not yet fully recovered from fever, flu, soar throat, coughing, headache, but I will be forever grateful to have my lovely ones around. And what makes me happier is that Kelvin started to resume his gym again. No wonder this 1 month he becomes more fit, gain more muscles for his upper body, and getting stronger since he did cardio more. The thing he couldn't manage was food. He needs more time to adjust. Just imagine this, when he was starving, he would choose to eat rice and the mouthwatering lamb stew. But I will appreciate his endeavors to be healthier. 


What a beautiful day. 


This month's main highlight is to learn to rest since I keep juggling, keep working until late night, less time to sleep, eat less, work out less. I can't complain because I know, what I have on my plate now could be a dream for other people. The best thing I could do is to remain thankful and to regulate my timetable. 


O Allah, please guide me until I am fully recovered and be forever grateful for Your unceasing blessings. Amin.

Puisi Terjemahan William Wordsworth - I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud

Hari ini, saya mencoba lagi menerjemahkan sebuah sajak berjudul I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud yang ditulis oleh William Wordsworth. Selamat membaca kawan! Semoga apa yang kita baca hari ini, membuat kita merasa penuh dan bahagia.  *** Umpama Segumpal Awan Aku Berkelana Aku berkelana umpama segumpal awan Yang melayang di ketinggian melampaui lembah dan bukit, Ketika tak sengaja kudapati sejauh mata memandang, Sehamparan bunga-bunga daffodil; Di dekat danau, di bawah rimbun pepohonan, Bunga-bunga daffodil melambai dan menari dikibaskan angin. Tak henti-hentinya laksana bintang-gemintang yang berkilatan Dan mengerjap di keluasan bima sakti, Bintang-gemintang itu, meregang dalam lintasan tanpa batas Di sepanjang tepian danau yang luas: Sekilas kusaksikan berpuluh ribu, Bunga-bunga daffodil saling beradu lewat tarian yang begitu lincah. Ombak di sebelahnya menggulung dan pecah; namun bunga-bunga daffodil Menghempaskan kilauan ombak itu dalam sukacita: Seorang penyair menjumpai dirinya te...

To Our 2nd Anniversary

The night has fall, curled around, and settled In silence and peace, the moon flickered courageously and stars blinked naughty It was a rectangled room with a hanging rattan bulb where the cold took hold A wave of joyful energy gathered and helped me chanted, "this day came, we're filled with love and pleasure." We have shared sunrises and sunsets Conquering all fears, expressing the passage of time, enduring love, and tumbling in joy. I dove beneath the quilt Drifted into dreams  "Before two, I was one celebrating the innocence, the unsolved questions about why I was one, not two.  I was a foreigner, wandered with a self-made map In the North I would see the frosting winter, magical skies with ribbons of light In the East, I would see new days filled with promise, flashing out warm greetings In the South, days stretch long, bread freshly baked, and conversations about clumsy feet strolling through the field never ends In the West, trees trembled the rustling leaves....
