Baru

Assalamualaikum,

The weather has been urmm.. COLD. There's snow outside the house. Subhanallah. I thought the last time i saw snow was when i was 4 years old. And then.. 25 years later.

Yes, we are not in Malaysia. The husband was given the opportunity to further in Msc. and believe it or not, we decided to come to this foreign yet not so foreign land (to us, and to many that is). We are in Derby, England. Why Derby? Because this is one of the only place where the husband can do his course.

Honestly, coming to the country at THIS time of year is not so fun. Yeah, the snow, the leafless trees.. But it's just cold. The day is of course shorter than the night. The day starts at 830 am (thats when the Fajr ends) and it ends at 5pm. That's Isya'. Sesuai la untuk sape sape yang nak qada' puasa. huuuu.

The whole journey of COMING to this land has been so overwhelming. We left behind everything and everyone in Malaysia. Our parents, our brothers and sisters, our friends, relatives, neighbours, bebeh the cat.. well absolutely everything. But as many advised, don't look back. Look forward and enjoy the new journey and adventure. In shaa Allah it will make us become better beings.. as a whole.
