Birthday at Bina Insani

Cost of ferry tix: $50 (the price has fallen... WOOO!)

Cost of making Brownies for the Orphans: $20 (Special for them)

Cost of getting mini goodie bags for the Orphans: $40 (sponsored by beloved Yani, though)

Cost of the happiness celebrating with them.....: PRICELESS!

This is where is began...........:

MY birthday... the celebration began a few days advance where staff from RM@RH organised a surprise birthday party after the roll call. It was a combined bday with angela.....

There was a cake... chocolate cake... and i got a beautiful KAPPA couple T-shirt... i was touched as they bought it not for me... but for my loved one too....

then came the eve of my Bday....

Rented a small car and picked my beloved Yani. She look gorgeous in that purple. I neva been to that place and was awed when she directed me to a hotel..... GRAND HYATT!

*pic unavailable yet.... watch this space...

had a superb asian delicacies buffet at the STRAITS CAFE... its too much for me to say but ASIAN CUISINE has neva tasted this good before.... and another surprise! the restaurant crew sang me a birthday song with a cute bday cake! i was blushing !my god!

I was given flowers.... 3 red roses and till today 28 Feb, my mom put it in a vase of water... :)

ok back to the bday...

and my birthday prezzies...!

a pair of original EVERLAST boxing gloves

and of course....

*ok dear i got the message:time for me to work out.... hehee

and so the day after my bday... i packed my bag and went to Bina Insani with my Totet, Yani (it rhyme!)

a peaceful and smooth ferry ride and before we know it, we are there... the kids were at skool... Bunda was away went to her hometown as her dad wasnt feeling well. Ayahnda was all alone managing the kids for th past 10 days.... poor ayahnda....

Gotto know this new kid on the blog... name Ridwan. Abandoned by his family and arrived a month ago. His trdemark... his one big tooth... he stuck onto me since the moment we met. He call me...'Om...Om....'

Aftr setlling down, ayahnda drove me and yani to the bus stop (15 mins fm Bina Insani) where they usually meet....

Nothing can describe the look on their face from tired and hungy to surprised and delighed. Other ppl at the bus stop was left confused....

We sang song, show some magic trick and went camwhore...

That nite...we recited Yasin (a part of the Holy Quran) together after magrib. After ishak, they proceedfor a doa selamat for a guest who delivered rice in a box for all of them...

Meanwhile... since the kids were away....Indra 'bekam'ed me...

WARNING: The photos below are notfor the faint hearted!

felt good after the bekam session.....

ANOTHER SURPRISE when i steped out of the room.... the kids are oredi lined up and sang bday songs for me!

last but not least... i got this bday present from Solihin.... this touched my heart deeply.... it was his own... i guess sumone gave it to him during his bday.... and he decided to give it to me.

This small and cheap thing..... is PRICELESS

Thank You GOD for giving another year to live....

Thank You Yani for being my Totet.....

Thank You Bina Insani for making my B'day the most memorable ever....

Disclaimer to the prev post:

I reali have nothing againts women wearing hijab. I may not be pious but im indeed a pro hijab.

I shall not go futher into this hijab issue animore as very very sensitive....

Honestly i realli mean no harm or picking out anione in specific...

Anyone feeling offended.. i apologise... neither do i make any judgemental remarks in my post, didnt i?

its was juz a sharing the story that my uncle shared with me... which i choose to share it in my blog.

Aniway.............

got so many fotoz and things to share reagarding my valentine... long time neva celebrate... coz i dun usually celebrate it tho....

so this year its was juz for fun yet special for me.....

too tired now.. so i leave u guys with the link below....

*p/s, Zac cafe food very yummy

4 kinds of people...

was sitting with my uncle till he shared with me a story....

it was somewhere in ramadhan.... near aidilfitri....

after terawih he and his wife went to geylang for shopping....

it was 2 am ...

yerp in the wee hours....

when my aunt spotted a familiar figure....

a once a sweet innocent figure.....

with a grp of guys laughing out loud and behaving wildly....

*my uncle was re-enacting the way she laughed it and he look disgustingly ugly... LOL sorry wak!

such embarassing sight and behavior for a muslim woman with a hijab ...

ESPECIALLY in the month of Ramadhan....

my aunt pointed it out to my uncle...

he didnt believe it was the one that they once knew....

he was even looking out for his nephew....

his nephew wasnt there...

they crossed the road and into each others path...

Yerp, it was that indeed the person that they have least thought would be...

one word in their mind.... SHOCKED....

And his perception of women in hijab totally changed from that day....


***********************************************************

As he ended his story, he gave a frown and a disgusted look.... and repeated his imitation of behavior....

"i was shocked when she laughed like this... wuakakakaka!"

I replied with a smile... not out of sacrasm....
but out of relief....
i wasnt there...
animore.....

*moral of the story?

There are 4 kids of ppl in this world....

1) the purest of them all

These arre closest to the angels of God. From the moment u see them, u can see their 'glow' of purity. Very rare.....

2) the repented devil

These are those who once had a harsh background and took the wrong route in their life during their younger days but has manage to find the right path. These are the streetwise ppl. they willl and know how to survive. Unfortunately, the stigma and their darkest shadows lingers with them. Only the purest (in the first category) can see and feel these ppl hearts.

3) The wolf in sheepskin

One glance, they look dashing, sweet, charming or adorable. Some are even babyface. They have all the moves to melt your hearts with their moves, words and the way they dress. Some even cunning enough to potray themselves as 'pious' with the way they dress. However, beware as behind every nive words or actions, their are stepping onto ur head and suck u dry.... They have their own sleek way to decieve you. The moment u spotted their ugly side, their lies etc, its already too late for u.

4) the condemend.....
*self explanatory... Lets juz dun stop praying for these ppl to move up to category 2, at least....


So... which category are you?

juz sms....

now... they juz sms....

its too late tho....

whateva....

very upset tho....
