tender is the night.

Alhamdulillah, we’ve arrived safely back in Kuala Berang late this afternoon.
Mr Sunshine is getting his much needed sleep as he drove for 8 hours with only 3 hours of sleep. I kept asking him whether he needed to me to take over the wheel, but he insisted on driving the whole way.
I failed miserably as a co-pilot, I was knocked out for almost two hours ! 🙁

A pot of beef curry is currently cooking on the kitchen stove.
I have time to blog because I waiting for the beef to be tender. Hehe.

Ok, it’s best I get back to cooking.
Bye.

top of the world.

Good morning all.
I’m testing out this mobile blogging feature, I’m blogging from my phone ! I’m a bit slow and am easily amused when it comes to techy stuff. :p
I’m in Mr Sunshine’s hometown, Batu Pahat. The whole family’s here as my sisters in-law just got back too. 🙂
We’re all done with sahur, I had quite a lot to eat (considering I won’t be fasting). I have not started to fast yet this Ramadhan. Well, what do you expect if your menses start a day before the first day of Ramadhan, eh ?
Last night, mum in-law and I went through some videos of our Batu Pahat wedding kenduri. It felt as if everything happened just yesterday. We had a good laugh watching one of the videos in which Mr Sunshine and I were forced to dance along with the traditional dancers. Hehe.
The videos did bring back some ‘unwanted’ good memories though. I guess the dust has just settled and I am at the point where I am more sad than angry or hurt.
Don’t get me wrong, I have no regrets. I know this a phase I have to go through. And, life goes on whether I am on the top of the world or not. I am definitely not on the top of the world, but I know I’m getting there. :p
I have been spending my free time trying to finish Marian Keyes’ Anybody Out There which I bought ages ago n only started reading two nights ago. I wish I had a day all to myself, just to finish it.
Tomorrow we’ll be heading to Batu Pahat town for a baju Raya hunt !
I am going back to bed for a couple of hours now. Mr Sunshine has already dozed next to me.
Random note: My hair needs some serious TLC lah.

breakdown.

I am not sure whether any of you had noticed some bickering going on in my blog. If you have not, just ignore this next paragraph. Hehe.
For those who have, I apologize for all the negativity in this Holy month of Ramadhan.
The thing is, I usually rant about that person in my private blog, but I stopped writing altogether over there halfway through my first year at work, so I kinda forgot about the whole point of that blog’s privacy.
It was my mistake to bare it all here, in my public and so-called happy blog. Sorry !
The timing of this situation is actually funny because I just finished reading Marian Keyes’ The Other Side of The Story a few days ago, a book which tells a story about three different characters; Gemma Hogan, Lily Wright and Jojo Harvey, and how their lives intertwined through heartbreak and success.
Gemma and Lily were former best friends. Their friendship was torn apart because Lily stole Anton, whom Gemma thought was her love of her life.
Funny because I can relate to the ‘becoming former best friends’ part except that no boyfriend stealing was involved. :p
I am not going to delete any posts or comments because what’s done is done.
No looking back, those are the words that are frequently told to me by Mr Sunshine and Akey.
I believe that when a relationship turns sour, both parties involved should be blamed and responsible for the damage. So I am in no way saying that I have done nothing wrong at all.
But I’ve done my part to try to rectify things, but it was a breakdown waiting to happen.
I am honestly relieved that it finally did.
So yeah, let’s just put all that nonsense behind because I do not intend to be an attention seeker or perfect baby/budak who always thinks she’s right. 🙂

Moving on, today I received some pretty exciting news (work-related).
I am trying not to keep my hopes up but I sure am hoping for the best !
Semoga dipermudahkan semuanya. Ameen.

How did your first day of Ramadhan go ?
Despite all the drama, I made three simple dishes for berbuka just now. Although I am not fasting, I only drank a few gulps of water throughout the whole day so I was pretty famished by Maghrib. :p
Currently waiting for Mr Sunshine to come back from Tarawih prayers.
I feel bad for waking up at 0530 hours this morning for sahur, even though Mr Sunshine had already told me he only wanted to have bread, I still need to practice waking up to prepare a sahur meal, don’t I ?

I better lie down before this headache of mine gets worse.
Here’s to a better day tomorrow, InshAllah. Ameen.
Bye !

xoxo
