NURUL AZIZ

Dear Future Me,

Assalamualaikum. Hi.

Growing up, you always know what you wanted to be. You know you wanted to be place in first class in school, get good results, go to matriculation, go to university, work in corporate or engineering industry. Although things didn't go smoothly as you wanted them to be, but they find ways eventually. I must say you are one lucky human. You didn't face major hardship like any other people. Alhamdulillah for that. Be thankful.

Of course as a human you have moments where you broke down. But you didn't let yourself being down for long because you know things will go back to normal and all you need to do was just get thru it because things won't go right if you do nothing and although if there were nothing you could do, being down won't do any good. It will only make you feel worse.

It's okay to be down and sad. It's part of being human. I like to think we are fluff balls full of emotion. Soft and squishy. Delicate yet flexible. So don't let all the negativity get the best of you. Do something or if you think there's nothing you can do, just follow the flow. You don't always get what you want but you will get what you need.

Sincerely,

You The Wise

Hello Potterheads,

Have you watched Fantastic Beasts : The Crimes of Grindewald yet? I watched it last weekend and ooh the adventure. We'll get into that in another post (if I'm not lazy heheh). For now I'm going to write about something else related to Harry Potter universe.

I remember my whatsapp conversation with my best friend, Nee where we talked about our Hogwarts house HAHAHA#&%&#*@hdwjhf. It didn't feel awkward when we discussed but now I'm writing about it I could almost hear how ridiculous we were. But meh, I gotta love what I love.

We were both sorted into Hufflepuff in Pottermore (click the link if you don't know what is Pottermore). I bet because the loves we have towards our food. Hufflepuff common room is located near the kitchen and Helga Hufflepuff (one of Hogwarts founders) was a pro in food related charms if you haven't know. But I told Nee, I'm convinced that I'm a Ravenclaw because I'm a self proclaimed genius bahaha.

Last week, I had some free time so I visit Pottermore and then I remember something. I have two Pottermore accounts. One registered under my old email and the other one under my main email. Now, there was a reason as to why I have two Pottermore accounts. First I registered using my old email but that was a long time ago before Pottermore looks boring like Pottermore today. So I forgot the password and I registered again using my main email. They just started using Sorting Hat at that time. I was into Gryffindor at that time because well, the main characters were from Gryffindor. The greatest wizard, Dumbledore also from Gryffindor. So I answered all the questions so that I'll get sorted into Gryffindor. Turned out I was sorted into Hufflepuff. I think because Hufflepuff's characters is a bit of everyone else. So that's how I get sorted into Hufflepuff. I wasn't happy with the results kahkahkah.

It was years after that, I opened my old email and retrieved my old Pottermore password and I wasn't yet sorted in any houses. So I took the Sorting Hat quiz again. I learned my lessons this time guys, so I answered the questions truthfully hahaha. And I was sorted into Ravenclaw. So yeah, I'm a Ravenclaw.


But then I think I'm also a little bit of Hufflepuff. Anywa, I love Hufflepuff common room. Both the location and interior. Hufflepuff common room is full of plants and I want my house to be full of plants. But I also love Ravenclaw dark blue starry common room. I mean come on, everyone close to me knows I'm obsessed with outerspace. I'm not a fan of Gryffindor and Slytherin common rooms The bright red and yellow really hurts my eyes and the emerald muddy green is too dark. But if I have to choose, Slytherin common room is better.


Since I want to make sure which house I belong to and because I had too much free time hahaha, I took a couple of random Sorting Hat quiz on the internet. I got 3 Ravenclaw and 2 Gryffindor. So yeah it's confirmed. Hahaha.

Please let me know what is your house in Pottermore and which house you really belong to because we all know Sorting Hat sometimes could make mistakes tho it never admitted them 😉.

Thanks for reading (this crap). Bye.

Assalamualaikum. Hi.

Assalamualaikum. Hi.

I went to 7E last night to get Nescafe Caramel Macchiato because I saw my friend shared about it on his IG story. Sadly the Nescafe Caramel Macchiato wasn't available at the store I went. Not sure if it was out of stock or that range was still not available at the store. I didn't bother asking because I was having stomach ache (from eating Samyang ramen on empty stomach. Don't do that guys). Despite bad review from my friend, I still want to try it just because of the packaging. Hahaha. See below. The packaging is nice isn't it?

So Arrif picked Starbuck Frappucino Coffee. I noticed the drink before but never feel like buying it because I think it wouldn't be good as the freshly brewed one. I thought he was going to drink it but he sipped some of the drink and asked me to finish the bottle. Since I'm not immune to caffeine like Arrif, so I just drank it this morning. We both loves coffee but Arrif like his coffee sweet and I like my coffee bitter so when he didn't finish the bottle, I thought it must be kaw but to my disappointment, it was sweet as hell. No coffee taste at all and the creamer taste was so strong. I tried to wash it down with water but yeah, the taste still there. But again, I love the packaging. Hahaha. I might keep this bottle and use it as my to go coffee container or when I'm bored of it, I could keep small house plant in there.

Assalamualaikum. Hi.

Here are mobile games I played nowadays. I'm not sure if you could call them games because they are more like something for adult to unwind after a day full of craps. Hahaha.

DESIGN HOME

I played this before and then I uninstall it because this game consume so much space. But I install it back because I love it to bits. It won't load if you use mobile data before but it works fine now with mobile data. It's fun for someone who love ID but not an ID (like me. Hahaha) There are new task everyday where you need to design different room with different theme. There are requirements for each challenge so you have to be creative and play around to fulfill the requirements with limited budget (unless you use credit card to buy diamonds 😐). You also get to vote other designer's design. The graphic is realistic and I think that's one of the reasons why I love this game.

PAINT BY NUMBER

This is by far the easiest colouring game I ever played because I don't have to think which colours goes well with the picture and which are not hahaha. Because everything already numbered. You just need to fill in the blanks with right number to colour the blank space. Below are some of my favourite pictures.

Assalamualaikum. Hi.

I would like to wish all of my blog readers Selamat Hari Raya. May all of you have a very good raya. It's my turn to celebrate first raya with my family this year. So on first raya, after family picture session, me and my family went to visit few relatives. Later that night around 11.00pm, me and Arrif went back to Kelantan. We purposely went back around that time to avoid traffic jam. Heheh.

Below are some pictures from our raya.

That's all about my raya. How's your raya?

Assalamualaikum. Hi.

Raya is closer and it make me feel nostalgic. So I'm going to share with you one of entry I wrote in my private blog. When having blogger's block, copy entries from your another blog. Heheh. This story is not directly related to raya but it's a story about one of my childhood memories at kampung where I spent most of my raya days.

ROTI PAUNG

Tak sure roti ni memang asal Ganu or orang lain panggil roti ni dengan nama lain. Tapi I tak pernah jumpa dekat tempat lain. Ada satu kedai depan Mi Ketam KL yang dekat Seksyen 7 Shah Alam tu name Roti Paung. Tak sure dia jual roti ni ke or just sekadar nama bakery tu Roti Paung tapi I assume owner dia orang Ganu jugak kot. Tiba-tiba rasa nak type entry bahasa Ganu. Hahaha.

So what's so special about this roti? Hekeleh tadi cakap nak buat entry bahasa Ganu tetiba omputih pulak keluar. Roti ni ada sentimental value pada I. Haa mampukah anda semua sentimental terhadap makanan? Kau hado, bak kata Diva AA. Orang lain sentimental value benda-benda yang boleh disimpan, but I sentimental terhadap makanan. Tapi bukan sebarang roti paung yang I sentimental value kan ini. Habis rosak bahasa. Cikgu Bahasa Melayu jangan marah.

Dulu kecik-kecik kalau balik kampung, this was the smell I woke up to. Bangun pagi sejuk-sejuk, tiba-tiba bau roti baru lepas masak. Inggerish sangat kampung I ni. Ada jiran ki (atuk) I tu memang pagi-pagi dia buat roti ni untuk jual. Tapi dia tak jual dekat kedai mahupun gerai pun. People bought it straight from her kitchen. Panas-panas from the oven. Selalu jugak mak I kejutkan kitorang adik beradik and the cousins, mintak pergi beli roti ni. Alah jalan kaki sikit dekat tepi rumah ki tu terus sampai belakang dapur mak cik roti paung. Dengan baju tido seluar senteng, kadang-kadang tak basuh muka pun. Pagi-pagi buta terkedek-kedek dua tiga ketul bagi salam dekat pintu dapur orang. Nasib baik tak kontot sangat. Kalau tak dah rupe toyol dah. Hihihi. Tapi langit tak selalunya cerah. Kadang-kadang mendung lalu hujan. Kadang-kadang dua tiga ketul toyol pulang dengan hampa jua. Roti paung dah habis! Siapa beli banyak sangat roti paung ni sampai toyol tak sempat menjamahnya? Terus makan pagi tak lalu. Terpaksa toyol-toyol berebut nasi gorengan emak bekerjasama dengan makcik. Ya Allah, sedapnyaaa. Sedapnya merujuk kepada roti paung cicah teh o ataupun sungguh enak di makan begitu saja. Nasi gorengan emak bekerjsama dengan makcik juga tidak kurang sedapnya. Tak lalu makan pagi di atas adalah tipu daya semata-mata. Makan tetap makan.

Lepas sekian lama I melupakan roti paung. Hanyut dengan pujuk rayu Kepsi, Mekdonal melemakkan badan, Korean food dasar Melayu lupa daratan. Pada suatu hari mak cik I datang rumah bawak roti paung. Apa lagi terus melahap tanpa jemput orang ramai. Hahaha. Tiba-tiba rasa berdosa sebab tak jemput orang lain makan. Tapi roti paung bersentimental value dalam kalangan toyol berseluar senteng, harap orang ramai maafkan I *mata berkaca. Time tu mak cik I tak cakap pape pun pasal roti paung tu. Dia sibuk buat kerja since time tu ada kenduri kecil-kecilan dekat rumah I. Bila keadaan reda dan semua orang balik, baru la mak I cakap mak cik I bawak roti tu sebab dia teringat time kecik-kecik dulu kitorang suka sangat like SANGAT SUKA roti tu. Dengan cinta dan kasih sayang terhadap anak sedara pelahap ni, mak cik I pun bawak lah. Rasa nak nangis terharu weh bila mak I cerita. Mok teh, bakpe mok teh ingat lagi roti paung hok Kak Yu brehi ning? *nangis sambil sumbat roti paung dalam mulut.

So camtulah cerita I dan roti paung. Balik nanti nak seret mak balik kampung pagi-pagi beli roti paung ah. Eee tak sabarnyeee *menggelupur tak sabar. Okebai

I could be wild in my other blog. This is one of many entries where I wrote without thinking at all and I found this kind of entries that I love to reread again and again in the future because I'm my blog avid reader if you haven't know yet. Hope you enjoy this and please share with me your childhood memories too!
