There are tons of things that i want to say, to write, to express but all just remains in my mind -.- This past two weeks are emotionally horrible. And each day is just getting worse. i think it's kind of a reminder for me that 'yes, anis, something is wrong! find it, solve it! hmmm...

but no matter how 'serabut' i am, how 'serabut' my day went on, he taught me to always say alhamdulillah for today, for every second, so, here i am, with emotional hurricane, humbly said ALHAMDULILLAH, thank you ALLAH for everything T___T and also not to forget to say Istighfar (maybe all those keserabutan because me/you/we are doing wrong things and we have to repent again!)

just now, we had just finished celebrated Alyaa's birthday. very happening maa :)) parties are just great. never once in my life, before i got here (egypt) that i've known or celebrate such event :P thanks to Aimi and Mila for that great mee bandung and also tasty ice cream cake and oranges and custard :) Hamdulillah..

Has been awhile since i last skyping with mama abah :( mentang2 dah ade viber, memang tak skype langsung. ''tapi kan selalu je telefon'' mana sama tengok muka dengan dengar suara je. :( 
Rindu dengan mama abah. Kalau telefon mama, Memang wajib dapat booster dose utk study, emosi, dan mcm2 lagi.. i am very grateful to have them ;) Alhamdulillah ;)


okay.. typing this somewhat calms me a lil bit.. only this for now.. i'm still unable to write something fruitful for your reading guys.. sorry for that :(
Assalamualaikum and good night ^^

Consider this before you give up

: Marc and Angel Hack Life :

1. You never fail until you’re satisfied with failure. – Failure is not falling down; failure is staying down when you have the choice to get back up.  Sometimes you have to fail a thousand times to succeed.  Which means you haven’t really failed yet; you’ve just found a bunch of ways that don’t work.  So don’t get so hung up on a few failed attempts that you miss every new opportunity coming your way.  All of your ideas that don’t work are simply stepping stones on your way to the one idea that does.  As Winston Churchill once said, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”   

2. What you have learned is what’s important. – Life always offers you a second chance – it’s called tomorrow.  But this second chance doesn’t mean anything if you haven’t learned from the events of today.  You have to acknowledge your troubles but gather strength from them, and laugh at your mistakes but learn from them.  Getting a second chance in life is about giving yourself the opportunity to grow beyond your past failures.  It’s about learning as you go and positively adjusting your attitude and efforts toward future possibilities. 

3. Tough times are just part of life’s natural balance. – Life lives, life dies.  Life laughs, life cries.  Life gives up and life tries.  And life looks different through everyone’s eyes.  In fact, who you were, who you are, and who you will become are three completely different people.  And as you gradually grow beyond the person you were yesterday, keep life's challenges in perspective.  Hear life’s harmony, and notice the delicate balance.  Realize that life is like playing a grand piano.  The white keys create your happiness and the black keys denote your troubles.  But as you go through life’s journey, remember that the black keys also create music. 

4. Pain helps you grow. – Sometimes things must change so you can change.  Sometimes you must break a little so you can get a peek inside to see what an awesome powerhouse you are.  Sometimes mistakes must be made so wisdom can be earned.  Sometimes you must overcome heartache so you can begin to follow your heart again. 

5. Success is a way of living. – Don’t let your struggles become your identity.  Not everything in your life will go as you expect it to.  This is why you need to drop expectations, live in the present, and go with the flow, rather than against it.  Remind yourself that it’s perfectly okay not to be perfect.  Ultimately, success is not something you achieve, it is what you learn and how you grow as you deal with the realities of life – it is a way of living and being.
