Fastings
There are so many things to do. First of all it's summer, and that means waktu siangnya lagi panjang dari waktu malam. Kitorang puasa kat sini almost 19 jam, sahur tamat pukul 3.30 pagi dan berbuka pada pukul 10 malam, you do the math la on how lama we all puasa. Tapi alhamdulillah, it's not really that tiring, tak perasan pun sebenarnya masa berlalu, cuma bila fikir-fikir balik, lama tu puasa tu sebenarnya.
Secondly we have to cook by ourselves for iftar. Memandangkan I am here with other four more people, we cook together and berbuka sama-sama. It's indeed so much fun, every day have to google segala macam resipi sebab mengidam nak makan itu-ini. Almaklumlah, mana ada bazaar duk ceruk sini. Semua kena buat sendiri. Setakat ni dah buat nasi beriani with ayam tandoori, ayam masak merah, nasi lemak, masakan thai like tomyam dan ayam percik. We even cooked kek pisang too! Haha dah macam hot guys ..... dah semuanya keletung-keletang di dapur.
Thirdly we have few friends' cats to be cared of. One is Addy, another one is Topek. Although I'm quite okay with cats since I am a cat-lover, but taking care of these two is not like taking care of the kucing in malaysia. Well I mean kucing bandar sebenarnya, since I tak biasa sebenarnya jaga kucing bandar. I duduk kampung so faham-faham je lah how us kampung people take care of the cats. In kampung bagi apa-apa pun dia makan. Tapi kucing bandar homaigod, banyak benor songehnya. Tapi I really like them both as the newest addition of us five here since proses menjaga diorang is really funny. Not to mention taking care of them macam bagi retail-therapy buat diri pun ada, so funny! It's like taking care of babies, but less annoying in term of crying for sure. With Topek's yang so hyperactive and Addy yang so diva, haha luculah.
Besides taking care of the cats, ourselves pun kena jaga jugak. I couldnt be more happier here with my friends since we belajar untuk berdikari, especially for terawihs. Masing-masing belajar untuk jadi imam dan bilal, kitorang saling gilir-gilir satu sama lain, lagipun bila lagi nak belajar jadi imam kan? We are 21 years old already (well most of us are) and dah besar panjang dah semuanya, memang kena start berlatih dah sebab nanti nak jadi ketua keluarga. Lagipun kata dalam empat tahun lagi nak kahwin, kan?
Lastly it's summer, it's hot (well not recently sebab it's been raining for quite few days), and it's holiday. Banyak sangat masa free yang ada dan masa free macam ni lah yang buat diri ni makin malas. Like seriously, I havent been so stress-free like this for real. I definitely not regretting my choice to not come back home early and spending few weeks here dulu sebab kalau balik awal I will be seriously mati kebosanan di rumah.
There's nothing sangat nak dibuatnya di Malaysia. I'm not a lepak person, there are no one at home except during the weekend, my friends mostly in uni tak cuti lagi and I'm stuck here in Kelantan, memang tidur je lah kerjanya hari-hari. At least here I have few friends to talk to and gurau-gurau, and tak rasa bersalah if I bangun lambat or goyang kaki. And there are cats too! No regrets at all!
So yeah, that's why I havent been blogging these past few weeks. But I still rasa nak menulis tapi. cuma busy. Well not really busy lah, cuma a bit tired. And we also had nursing practicals too for two weeks, which required us to bangun awal. So bila bangun awal, balik-balik praktikal memang konfem la semua terjelepek letih dan tidur petang kan? Haha
Anyway I promised you guys a post filled with pictures, that one nantilah. Maybe tomorrow kot since I really want to make something like lookbook thingy with what I bought and you know, stuffs like that since I love fashion. And especially since tomorrow my friends and I are going for shopping spree. Well its me sebenarnya yang nak shopping sangat-sangat, tapi I assure these guys cannot resist the hotness of the summer sale for sure nanti.
Even me myself pun rambang mata seeing all the SALE tags everywhere, nasib baik I am able to pull myself back together and tolak my nafsu jauh-jauh. Ish nafsu, susahnya nak jagaaa :(
Sooooo with that's being said, Salam Ramadhan guys, hope it's not too late to say that. And happy hunting for pahala this Ramadhan tau!
peace, xoxo.

Summer and Practicals
Anyhoo life has treated me so well lately, walaupun suhu di Moscow agak panas since it's summer, tapi other than that I am fine. Majoriti students kat sini semuanya dah balik kampung dah sempena cuti musim panas, aku je yang menggedik nak buat praktikal kat sini dengan segelintir students. Adalah dalam 5-6 orang yang still tak balik lagi. Walaupun balik lambat sikit daripada orang lain, at least I am not that bosan macam yang selalu aku rasa bila balik bercuti lama-lama di Malaysia.
Masuk hari ni, dah cukup 5 hari dah buat praktikal kat sini. Praktikal kat sini takdelah teruk sangat macam yang orang cakap. So far, we all did see most of nursing works like how to inject people via intravenous and intramuscular routes, how to set up IV drip untuk patients dan kitorang sempat belek-belek Case History patients kot. Dengar katanya nanti we will learn how to do catheterization, entahlah, harap-harap ada. Macam biasa, orang luar tak boleh sentuh patients sebenarnya, tapi nurse kitorang punyalah baik hati untuk offer kitorang untuk perform intramuscular injection kat punggung seorang patient ni. Bukan senang nak dapat peluang macam ni, tapi agak melepas jugaklah sebab kitorang tak accept the offer sebab semua macam terkejut dengar offer macam tu. Yelah, tetiba je out of sudden, memang mentally unprepared lah.
Summer sale dah lama dah bermula (sorry, I just have to write about it), tapi my monthly allowance tak masuk lagi and it's making me quite gelisah. I really nak grab a few pieces of clothes from TopMan nak buat baju raya, hampir-hampir nak ambik this one terracota red chinos kot, tapi last minute sambil queue teringat yang bright red chinos from H&M beli waktu winter trip hari tu pun tak terpakai lagi, masih segar dalam closet.
Tapi seriously nak beli few kemeja, few chinos, a straw hat and nak beli those River Island's bags, dah lama dah teringin. Nak beli boots jugak, nak pakai taim winter. And loafers too. And many-many more. Cuma yang masalahnya, i'm such a petite guy, dan bila clearance sale macam ni memang akan jadi susah kemain lah nak cari saiz yang berpatutan. Biasanya yang kecik-kecik tu dah kena rembat awal-awal dah. Takpelah, save seket duit aku.
So yeah, itu je lah, no pics, no anything, just me rambling on again same stuffs about me and me. Nanti next post I will gonna post some pics, insyaAllah. And oh, we are getting nearer to Ramadhan, i am so can't wait. Excited!! Dah lah separuh bulan aku akan start puasa kat sini, agak mencabar jugaklah memandangkan summer biasanya siangnya memang panjang dan malamnya pulak memang pendek. And this whole siang panjang thingy leads to ramai yang tertanya-tanya, boleh tak nak puasa ikut waktu Mekah sebab waktu siang panjang sangat.
Kitorang pun mula-mula mengeluh jugak, sebab rasa macam tak mampu je. Tapi taim tengah mencari jawapan kepada persoalan tu, ada seorang staff embassy yang kitorang consult tu buat analogi ni; kalau waktu winter takdelah pulak orang mintak nak panjangkan waktu puasa ikut waktu makkah (sebab in winter malamnya panjang, siangnya pendek), ini yang summer ni tetiba pulak nak pendekkan. Kan kan?
Kerja nak bagi senangkan diri je kerjanya.
So insyaAllah mampu punya dengan izin Allah. Lagipun kan Allah pernah cakap dalam surah al-Baqarah, "boleh jadi kamu membenci sesuatu itu, padahal ia amat baik bagimu, dan boleh jadi pula kamu menyukai sesuatu, padahal amat buruk bagimu, Allah mengetahui sedangkan kamu tidak mengetahui". Dan Allah pun bagi ujian sejajar dengan kemampuan kita.
Just yakin dan percaya je dengan Dia, the rest Dia akan eases the way nanti. Lagipun kan percaya tu maksudnya "iman" ^^

Husnuzon
1. Jika berjumpa dengan kanak-kanak, anggaplah kanak-kanak itu lebih mulia daripada kita, kerana kanak-kanak itu belum banyak melakukan dosa daripada kita.
2. Apabila bertemu dengan orang tua, anggaplah dia lebih mulia daripada kita kerana dia sudah lama beribadat kepada Allah S.W.T berbanding kita.
3. Jika berjumpa dengan orang alim, anggaplah dia lebih mulia daripada kita kerana banyak ilmu yang telah mereka pelajari dan ketahui berbanding kita.
4. Apabila melihat orang jahil, anggaplah mereka lebih mulia daripada kita kerana mereka membuat dosa dalam kejahilan, sedangkan kita membuat dosa dalam keadaan kita mengetahuinya.
5. Jika melihat orang jahat, jangan anggap kita lebih mulia kerana mungkin satu hari nanti dia akan insaf dan bertaubat atas kesalahan yang telah mereka lakukan.
6. Apabila bertemu dengan orang yang jahil, katakan di dalam hati bahawa mungkin pada suatu hari nanti mereka akan diberi hidayah Islam oleh Allah S.W.T, maka segala dosa mereka akan diampuni Allah.

Finished Already
Alhamdulillah alhamdulillah alhamdulillah. Words cant even explain how I am so happy right now. Finally the worst year of exams akhirnya tamat. I dont know about you guys my fellow batchmates, but for me, this year's final exams are the most stressful exams yang I had ever encountered with. Feelingnya sumpah lain macam, sebab susaaaah. So stressful sampai boleh dikatakan hampir setiap malam sebelum exam aku rasa macam nak nangis sebab OMAGA so cluelessssss. Dengan subjek yang susahnya, ditambah lagi dengan silibus yang banyak dan silap diri yang asyik main, memang susah sangat-sangat nak fokus. Tapi with that being said, praise to Allah the almighty sebab semuanya dipermudahkan walaupun ada upside down sana-sini. Seniors cakap that this year is the most hectic year, lepas ni dah tak busy sangat dah, and I am really crossing my fingers on that. Even kalau masa diputarkan untuk baiki those flops pun aku taknak, stress lah.
So yeah, i wanted to post this happy post as soon as I finished my last paper, which was the amazingly scary Pathophysiology, but I was so tired post exams (which I always am) due to not having enough sleep..and later I had so many post-exams celebrations...so yeah, sorry lah if somehow this post kinda looks like unnecessary since it's kinda late. Whatever it is, I am still happy because my third freakin year is finally over. Cant wait for next year, may things be always fabulous for me, and for you. *giggles*
