Hari Pasar Sedunia - Saturday's Summary

Assalamu'alaikum. My day began very early yesterday, despite being Saturday. The venue was at the nearby Pasar Tani, restocking our supplies of fish for the whole month or so. My other half had earlier on left to get some lambs at Sungai Tua. And for the record, he had been the one who would always go to the Pasar Tani every month ALONE before this. With this yet-to-end water retention time, my mood swing(s) didn't get much remedies when I had to cook alone at home while Bibik and mom continued their Hajj induction course at the mosque. Who says being ikhlas is easy? Nobody, right? But that's life. 

Anyways, the picture attached herewith was taken at night, yes, different pasar altogether - night market this time. Since both Bibik and I were given divine exemption of the month from praying, an exemption called PMS, we proceeded to AEON at 7pm for groceries hunt, restocking the supplies of what, 2 weeks, perhaps? A trolley full and laden with things would last less than a month in my regime, that is. After securing the entire bunch into the car boots, we walked to the neighboring night market for yet another supplies hunt - fresh veggies, onions, gingers, garlics, chillies, their brothers and sisters, cousins and relatives. Or as the Terengganu peeps dub it - "Gajoh Ghima".


You know, some wives prefer to wait for their husbands to do groceries so that they would have assistance when it comes to carrying things, at the very least. I wish I fall into such category but my life is different, but not that different from my sets of friends, which makes it normal in my eyes.  We can't afford to wait around for that sure means fatal to the suffice of supplies at home. There are loads others out there who would relate to our situations, really. And mind you, some just have to do everything on their own, EVERYTHING, without any help from ANYBODY whatsoever. Like I most of the time didn't get to drag Bibik along to help me with groceries hunt for I would just sneak out to do it myself in between my scheduled appointments. Point is, we modern wives have become so freaking independent that it hurts not to get recognized or appreciated adequately by those who matter. 

Well, there goes a little desperation note from me. Hehehe. Thanks for coming. Take care! Assalamu'alaikum.

Mematikan Setem Hasil Di Hadapan Pesuruhjaya Sumpah

Image
Assalamu’alaikum. Okay, dalam banyak-banyak perkara tentang Pesuruhjaya Sumpah, bab mematikan setem ni aku nak kongsi dengan korang semua. Kita buat dalam bentuk rumusan fakta sudah la, ya? 1- Setem Hasil: RM10 sekeping, beli kat mana2 pejabat pos. Ada sesetengah Pesuruhjaya Sumpah dah beli siap-siap, standby kat ofis kot-kot la orang datang berkehendakkannya. Tapi jangan kecewa, marah atau tak puas hati kalau takde tau, sebab itu bukan tanggungjawab dia. Kira value-added service. 2- Dokumen apa yang Pesuruhjaya Sumpah boleh matikan setem hasil ni? Bukan semua dokumen, ya, tuan-tuan dan puan-puan. TIGA jenis je pun:  -i- Afidavit;  -ii- Surat Akuan Berkanun (a.k.a Akuan Sumpah); atau -iii- Deklarasi/Pengakuan Bertulis.  Dengan syarat Afidavit, Surat Akuan Berkanun dan Deklarasi/Pengakuan Bertulis itu ditandatangani dan diangkat sumpah di hadapannya. 3- Cara mematikan setem, takde cop2 bulat bagai macam kat LHDN tu, ya... kena buat dua palang kat lua...

Dress Code Peguam Muslimah

Image
Assalamu’alaikum. Kali ni aku nak cerita pasal dress code bagi peguam syari’e di negara tercinta kita, Malaysia. Straight forward je sebenarnya:  1- Bertudung putih/kelabu; 2- Berbaju warna gelap, berkain hitam; 3- Blazer berwarna hitam; dan 4- Jubah khas (kes di hadapan hakim Mahkamah Tinggi & Rayuan). Pendek kata, itulah warna asas selagi mana menjadi peguam: MONOCHROME to the max! Majoriti peguam syari’e wanita lebih selesa memilih untuk memakai sepasang baju kurung berwarna ataupun bernada hitam. Macam aku pulak tengok mood, ada masanya lengkap 1 sut blazer dan skirt labuh, dipadankan dengan blaus putih/hitam paras bumper. Ada masanya aku pakai baju kurung macam orang lain, ye la ikut mana yang sesuai dengan kehendak hati.  Dulu kami tak boleh pakai tudung lain kecuali warna putih, punyalah bosan tahap cipan hari-hari macam kaler taik cicak. Sejak beberapa tahun kebelakangan ni, Arahan Amalan Mahkamah Shariah dah perluaskan kebenaran warna kepada kelabu. Barulah ada va...

Onak, Duri & Ranjau Kehidupan

Hidup tak selalunya indah. Adat la, langit pun tak selalunya cerah. Penuh cerita suka dan padat cerita duka. Itu la pun yang mewarnai kehidupan.  Lumrahnya, semua orang nak selalu bahagia, kalau boleh. Tak mau ada duka ataupun air mata. Nak ketawa dan bergembira sentiasa. Tapi hakikatnya berbeza. Harapan lain. Kenyataannya lain. Takde pilihan pun sebenarnya, mau tak mau kena telan, kena terima apa adanya. Yang mendewasakan kita itu la dia.  Kadang-kadang kepedihan yang kita rasa macam tak mungkin ada hujungnya. Itu tahap pertama. Pada permulaannya. Disebabkan tak ada pilihan, kita tetap melangkah. Ya, mungkin longlai. Mungkin juga bagai tak jejak kaki ke bumi. Tapi masih perlu terus melangkah. Dan melangkah. Tanpa sedar, kepedihan itu kian menipis. Hari berganti hari. Bulan berganti bulan. Tahun berganti tahun. Waktu akan memulihkan. Percayalah. Apa yang paling penting adalah kekuatan jiwa. Tanpa itu, hampir mustahil untuk mengawal perasaan, apa lagi keadaan. Carilah ap...
