2012 Miracles

Bismillah

My Lord is Rich(Bountiful) and Generous.
This year so much has happened. An eventful 2012 indeed. First thing to happen was my final semester in MMU. I made good memories and have no regrets. I got 4 flat for my last semester but not enough to get first class. It's ok cause I know I did my best. Alhamdulillah. I mean ending my university with 4 flat isn't too bad if you ask me. ;)
Next, was my eventful fly back to KK, leaving my luggage, my sister crying and mumbling through the 2 hour flight, having to pay rm400++ to get my luggage back in KK. Alhamdulillah we did not lose the luggage. Thanks to my good friends and Allah S.W.T. mercy.
Third was my first day at dad's office and cleaning up Kopi Tenom S/B accounts. Alhamdulillah it's all ok and I learned a lot from certain mistakes.
There was also the car accident that destroyed the back of my mum's car. Thankfully the accident was proven to be the fault of the driver behind us and he had to pay for damages. Alhamdulillah.

Then there was the surprise that I won't mention here. Alhamdulillah there was no serious conflict and we could still communicate with each other with smiles (not sure if they are sincere smiles but still it's good to know we are not on completely bad terms).
After that I got green light from dad to go get myself a job. It's nerve-wrecking and worrisome when you've sent so many resumes with no response but I did my best. Tawakal comes next. InsyaAllah everything will be fine.
My mum's friend has cancer, it's tough for her but I hope she gets well. She just lost her sister this year as well. Makes you remember that death isn't far and it is a phase that we all have to go through one day.
My sister had to skip 8 test papers in order to go back kampung. May Allah S.W.T. give her Mercy. Hopefully her teachers would be kind enough to let her re-sit.

Ramadhan came and there was that horrible experience regarding that car accident. Alhamdulillah no one was injured and we did not get into an accident with other cars (or in this case the huge bus driving behind us at that moment). Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah. Allah S.W.T. kept us alive.

Pre and post-raya was hectic as usual but nothing my family and relatives can't handle. Monopoly games were an added bonus. It was so much fun to play monopoly in German (thanks to Zaid for bringing them along). Alhamdulillah I feel much loved this Raya. I truly love my relatives. Where else can you randomly go to your relatives house and say "Hey my house has no water. Where's your toilet? I want to shower." I forgot to mention that the night before raya we had no electricity and the day after we were short on water. It was a little bit worrisome at first but afterwards it kinda became a little funny in my opinion. We made dodol by relying on the car light and my family cooped up in the car enjoying the car AC during the blackout.
Once we were back in KL we called Acik Kotah to drive to Najji's place and dragged her around to Papa's friends house and to Low yat. All in all she was very sporting about being dragged around. I love my aunt.

Oh yeah. There was another shocking news. My aunt met someone! News is that he will soon contact my dad to talk about the wedding. Homai! I hope the best for her and pray that he cares for her the way she deserves to be loved. May Allah S.W.T. bless their union.

Coming back from raya we received the biggest news this year has to offer. I'm not going to mention it here but suffice to say life is suddenly not the same anymore. I hope Allah S.W.T. be merciful to my parents and that He grant them His protection. Alhamdulillah my dad was probably much more prepared for this than any of us. We'll be fine.

I think despite the many tribulation  this year has to offer, life isn't so bad and there are MANY things of which I am thankful for. The thing I'm most thankful for at this moment is for being alive. I have yet the chance to repay my parents, to ask for Your Forgiveness and to pay for all the wrongdoings I've done. With Your Mercy I'd like to do all of this before You call me back. This year taught me, that there are so many things Allah S.W.T. has given to me. Just the thought of it makes me want to cry.

Well 2012 is not yet over (I feel like it has been 10 years. dramatic I know). I have a convocation to look forward to and a trip to Penang. Then after that I'll start taking ACCA seriously and by the end of October I must have a job! InsyaAllah. ;)

Alhamdulillah
