Ohh I dont believe I have been neglecting my Vox blog for 6 days!
Since I upgraded my Flickr account I was busy uploading pics there..and I was so engrossed in exploring amazing pics there..sorry friends!

All these pics are from my archive..not really great pics compared to the others but I hope you'll enjoy them :)

This maple leaf is very big, bigger than our faces..
Took this photo during my outing this evening. I brought this maple home as a gift to my husband for taking care of my children ;) Luckily he loved it and hanged it in our house as in this pic :D

In the UK they've passed a law saying that smokers will not be allowed to become foster parents, do you think this is fair?

I am not sure whether this is fair or not but I absolutely agree with the decision :))

I hate to inhale the smoke from the cigarette. I am so glad I was grown up in a non-smoker family and I am so glad I found a husband who is not smoking ! :))

It has been raining for a few days because of the changing season. The weather here is getting colder. The trees are turning gradually..I just can't wait for the real autumn where the trees turn reddish, yellowish and orange...

Recently I joined a group called: Be proud of who you are set up by LaidOutInLavender.

At first I didn't have confidence because I always have low esteem about myself... I really cannot think  much of  positive things about myself, so I thought this is a good place to strengthen my self-confidence. Since this is very difficult, I am not going to do this daily nor weekly, but monthly...hope the moderator of the group doesn't mind :-)

So for the first compliment : Liya, you are a woman with strong determination with faith in God. Thank you, Liya!

I've had this positive character since I was in primary school. When I was in Standard 6, I started to realize that my Mathematics subject was very weak. Once, I got very bad result for Maths subject. I still remember at that time my mark was 29%.  When my teacher passed to me the result, he said "It would be better if you got 92% instead of 29%". He was like teasing me and I felt quite embarrassed about it. Since then I did a lot of Maths exercise and for the next test I managed to get 92%! :D My results started to weaken when I entered Lower High School. My position was always at  rank 200. When I realized that it was not good for me, I set my mind to be one of the top 5 students in my lower high school, I worked hard and finally I really managed to grab the top 5 position, as I targeted. With this character in me I obtained quite flying color results for most exams I sat during my study years. I managed to enter one of the best boarding schools in my country (I really wanted to enter that school), I managed to pass the driving test (I was afraid to drive, but I

passed the exam!) and I managed to get degree in Electronic Engineering at one of the most popular Universities in Japan. I was not clever nor a genius, but my success was because of this character and of course, with God's willing too. I worked hard and I prayed a lot. That were the keys.

Owh, forgot to mention..as I have written in my entry before, I managed to decrease my weight from 42-32kg in 2 months! Exactly as I targeted, but this is not something good ;P.

I also set my mind to get marry to a loving husband at 24, and have a child at 25, and with God's willing, I've got them.

Now I am here in Japan, as a mom, and a

"cyberhousewife"..haha... Many people suggest me to further study to a higher level, but I refused. I am just sick of studying. But I know, if I set my mind to "yes, you can", I know I can do it. I just want to do other things besides studying :-)

I still haven't decided what profession should I choose in the future. Currently I only have interest in doing business, but haven't decided what kind of business. But I really want to do something related to my interest, maybe something related to baking..or photography...? But still too far..still lots to learn...

Anyway, I am so grateful to God for what He has bestowed to me .. Enough said :-) 

 

I was not feeling very well yesterday. My nose was running badly and I slept with my kids most of the time. Alhamdulillah today I'm feeling a little bit better.

Here are some photos of nature that I snapped during the weekend and on Tuesday (It was  "Respect The Elder Day" so it was holiday here). On the weekend we went to Matsumi Park but the whether was cloudy so I used flash for most of the photos. On Tuesday we went to Doho Park, the same place where I posted  beautiful autumn photos before.

SubhanAllah, how beautiful God's creations are!

Owh, recently I was tagged by Leila. The original is in Malay but I'm going to write in English here. Sorry for my dull English, but I need to practice :-)

5 bad habit during your school years

1. Bite nails when I was in primary school. But I knew it was a bad habit so I determined to stop the habit and managed to stop when I was in standard 5.

2. When I was in primary school I loved to join the boys rather than the girls.

3. I was a nerd (boring, studied a lot). When I was in standard 6 I even studied during the Physical Education subject. When I was in lower high school I used to open my text book or exercise book straightly after came back home. When I was in High School (MRSM Taiping)  I studied during the recreation hours. Maybe that's why I am lacked of many skills and I don't really have close friends. What a boring student life I've had.  But that bad habit led to my excellent SPM (the most important exam in Malaysian high school) result though, and made my existence in Japan now, and I love staying here so much!

4. I dieted when I was in Form 2 (14 yo). At that time I was quite chubby. My aunts had always teased me that made me determine to diet crazily. I cut heavy meals for 2 month. I drank a lot of lime juice without sugar. I exercised every night. Consequently, my period stopped for 1 year. I managed to cut my weight from 42 kg to 32 kg in 2 months! I looked like an old woman. I dieted until the worst level, where I purposely vomited what I ate, that is called Bolimia Nervosa sickness. (It's worst than Anerocsia Nervosa). You can google these sicknesses to learn more. My parents did scolded and advised me, but I ignored them. One day when I walked back home from school I felt headache and was about to faint...I felt like something wrong was going on with me. Since then I stopped dieting and ate normally. I could have died if I continued dieting at that time! Lesson: Don't tease your young growing up kids / teenager :-).

5. I always daydreamed in class.

3 favorite subjects and why?

1. Add Maths - Adventourous and I just loved Add Maths.

2. Chemistry - The teacher was very nice, funny and cute.

3. History- The teacher was very funny. But I didn't really like to study History actually. I just liked the class.

3 most loathed subjects and why?

1. Arts- Don't know why. Only now I realized I love arts very much.

2. Modern Maths - Not adventuorous. Boring...hehehe

3. English - The teacher was nice but...the class was boring..But I don't think that caused my low English level. I'm just lacked of reading (I told you I spent most of my time studying, right?)
