Selamat Hari Raya!

Day 29th.
Last day of tarawikh, insha Allah.
So excited, first time raya as husband and wife :D
But husband is still not here...waiting on our visa which is not ready yet.
And probably will not be ready by next week as well.
Which only means one thing.

Flight to the UK has to be delayed (which already is, by the way, to Oct 1st).

Me - Happy lah, can raya longer in Malaysia...weehuu!!
Hubby - Not happy, if he happens to be missing any classes...Kesian la pulak kat pakcik tu...Excited nor nak masuk kelas balik...

Maybe there is a blessing in disguise - insha Allah we will able to meet both of extended families during this Raya, ever since our marriage we did not really properly visit all the relatives and thank them for attending our wedding and of course, get to know each other better...Also, a proper farewell before both of us are off to the UK...

Whoever wants to visit us this raya - you're most welcomed!

Selamat Hari Raya, maaf zahir dan batin...

Rock on 3

Today, 3rd Sept 2007 commemorates the 3-year anniversary of me being a mere employee of a reputable big 4 accounting firm.

What initially planned to be a 2-year stint extended to an additional year.

Despite all everything - hellish workload, even more hellish managers and practically everyone in the firm, it's not that bad, really. You may break down and give up but I think it is all worth it in the end.

If I am not going to the UK I might still be around in the firm for another year, I think. Or two. Maybe three?

I guess time's up for me.

Oh! 3 years also means I have fulfilled the criteria to apply my way in to this secret-strictly-by-invitation-only elite club which is more like a super funky bar designed to look like an adult entertainment set, where sun-kissed goddesses wait on cashed-up men. Erm, not :P

Hmm now to think of something "special" to treat myself after all these years...
