S.I.S.T.E.R - Special Edition =D

He he.. Long time haven't updated the blog.. Been busy with my sis' wedding preparation. And now that it's settled, have my lovely time back. ^_^

Anyhows, in this post, I will just share with you guys something I wrote about my sis which I had given short speech about during the reception. This is especially dedicated for you, Kak Id, in case you're reading. =)



Bismillah… Assalamualaikum…

Terima kasih, DJ, kerana memberi saya peluang untuk berkata2 sebentar di hari yang serba indah ini. Saya x nak cakap lama2, sbb saya da lama tinggalkan zaman cakap depan khalayak ramai ni... So I have a little bit stage fright today… But I will just get on with it. =)

Seperti yg para hadirin ketahui, hari ini merupakan hari paling bahagia kepada kedua mempelai kite, iaitu Muhamad Adil dan Norshahida Wati. I wish “Selamat Pengantin Baru” to both of you. =) Ehmm.. I don’t know much about Abang Adil, as I am yet to explore about his background and personalities starting today… Thus, my short speech today will focus on the bride instead, which is my sister – Shida.

Shida was born on 29th December, 1982, which was 5 years before me. So, of course, due to the big gap of years between us (and also being the eldest girl sibling), she was always responsible for all the house chores, and she is really good at it (lucky you, Abang Adil ;))

Setelah usia meningkat, Shida pun bersekolah di Tadika Seaport dan kemudiannya ke SRK Kelana Jaya (1) ketika Shida berumur 7 tahun. Selepas itu, Shida melanjutkan pelajaran di SMK(A) Simpang Lima, dan kemudiannya di SMAP Labu. Due to excellent result, she was then offered a scholarship to pursue her studies in Accounting & Finance at Kolej Matrikulasi Yayasan Saad (where she did her A-Level) and later at Warwick University, UK (where she did her Bachelor’s Degree). Selepas habis belajar, Shida ditawarkan untuk bekerja sebagai eksekutif di PNB, tempat beliau bekerja sehingga kini.

As you can see, she had an excellent academic background. Curriculur-wise, she was in the student bodies, student publications, and members of other organizations in nearly all educational institutions that she had attended. But then, who cares about this type of background for this particular day. I’m sure most of you, if not all, want to know about how she is as a family member, and particularly as a sister. =)

Sebagai seorang anak, Shida adalah seorang yang sangat bertanggungjawab. Shida tidak pernah melawan cakap ibu dan ayah, apetah lagi meninggikan suara. Setiap permintaan ibu dan ayah mesti Shida akan buat segera. Bila ibu dan ayah takde pulak, she will automatically be the 2nd mom, taking care of me when they were not around, dari saya kecik sampai la besar. =)

Sister-wise, she is fun to be around with. She cracks up jokes, hearing to my blabbering about non-important stuff, advices me when I do wrong, guides me in my studies, and be the person who I can annoy always. Thanks for those. ;)

Last but not least, we might be very different in personalities, taste in things, activities to join, etc… But we understand and love each other very well. I love you, Kak Id, and I always will. Sisters forever. =)
Wassalam.

F.R.I.E.N.D.S

It's that time of the year where I find there's nothing to do and finally settled to update my blog (eventhough there's actually a lot of things to be done.. but who cares =p). Throughout the time where I last blogged (people who didn't know, I had and is still having an account at norshafawati.blog.friendster.com previously), many things have happened. I've went for part-time jobs, went out with friends, finished readings couple of books, and is getting back to my 4th year here in MMU.. Yet, I've never take the time to blog till now.. =)

Since the break period is so long, there are so many things to talk about.. Ideas keep flowing through my head on what to write.. Feel like writing everything, but of course, that would mean spending the whole night infront of the laptop. Wouldn't want that. So I guess I'll focus on 1 thing.. and that would be about 'friends'.. =)

Throughout my 21 years of life (my birthday is not here yet =D), I have met a lot of people whom I called as friends.. Those whom I've always appreciate their appearance in my life. But finding ones who I really can share everything with is quite hard. I can be friendly to strangers and make friends to anyone whenever i feel like it, but i rarely open up to people about my personal life.. even to my bestfriends sometimes. Let's just conclude that I'm not the type who likes to tell everything. I prefer to keep part of my life private. =)

Life is always changing, and the environment constantly changes. We also change to adapt to the environment.. And that change might be for the better or worse, depends on how we react to the situation.. Thus, we need friends that can accept us for who we are and for who we will turn out to be. We need them to constantly remind us who we are and the wrongs that we have done. We need them to share all the happiness and sorrows. We need them to have fun together and to swap stuff and stories. These friends are not just friends. They are our closest friends.. =)

In MMU, I've already felt big losses in the first semester of this fourth year.. People who I always spend my time & stories with are either graduating, having their intership, or have decided to take a break from studies to work.. I guess it's that time of your life again where you have to part from the people you are close with.. =( But looking things on different view, this will just be a beginning of a wonderful friendship. Wani & I were separated to different schools since Form 4, but we are still the best of friends and share gossips once every few months in a year (you have no idea how long we gossip through phone once we have the chance.. ha ha). So I guess getting separated from your friends are not really that sad, since you will get a whole bunch of stories to tell to each other every once in a while. ^_^

I don't know why, but somehow I'm starting to miss all my old friends.. I'm uploading some pics here so that you guys can re-live the moments we had together.. miss u guys loads!

New Blog Account!

Ha ha.. FINALLY get myself to open a blog account at a pure blog hosting site.. millions people have adviced, but only started to consider very recently (okay, maybe not million people.. maybe even less than ten =p). However so, am still considering which site will be my permanent blog.. I love my old friendster blog account, as I can just check friendster & blog around the same day, same time, same site. Nevertheless, will keep posting on both sites till i figure out which one to use.. so keep updating yourselves here! ^_^
