Marrying early?

There's  a saying that goes:

Women wont stop worrying until they get married.


And on the contrary:

Men will start worrying after they marry.


C'est la vie.

My mum--

She's that one sensitive woman when I touch on this.

"What're you thinking wanting to marry early?
You know ah men these days are after your money...
They only wanna sleep with you and run off..."
Bla bla bla.


I respect her.

She marries dad pretty early.

No bashing please.

Those young days eh?

If possible (this comes with a warning);

Mum: Mama mok kitak nikah umo 28.

My jaw dropped.

Dad backed her up.

My face dropped.

But just yesterday;

she was saying about my aunt.

Mum: Usu kitak dah lanjut dah umo. Baruk mok kawen.

Exceptmyaunt'sonlytwentysevenyearsold.

It's not really what the locals think;

how teens are already worrying about this matter.

Reminder: This is not a form of desperation.

It's becoming everyone's concern now ain't it?

ANDARTU is a MASSIVE word.

No offense is ever intended.


I made it clear. Period.


Well, I just wanna marry.

Not too early, not ever too late.

I leave the rest to God to decide.

He knows what's best.

Yeah having a job is still my priority.

Studying too.

Who can ever stay single for the rest of their life?

I give you 10 years to answer me that.

    In fact, none of us could survive his/her life without partner...(except for those who was born in other planet, I think - of course that person would like to live alone). But since this matter is our destiny, the thing that we can't predict what will be it is, so we just let Allah to decide for us...

    haha...your jaw is dropped? I could imagine that... The 'incident' that might happen to me as well if someone push me with that command (to marry early..) ~ haiya~

Chasing your dreams

I would avoid this topic at all cost when asked. But how long can you really run? Recently, I've been hit with questions and remarks that I find unpleasant to talk about. If you happen to know me personally, You'll understand what I mean. (Not that I like opening up) An old friend actually asked, "What are you planning to do with your life?" Then he continued, "Oh wait your job just reminded me you won't be able to do much." "I don't think you'll ever grow staying in that environment your whole life." "I guess you'll be stuck there for the rest of your life." There are a lot of things to consider before saying that: 1) You have money 2) You have money 3) You have a lot of money So why impose your life on other people when you know that not a lot of people can afford what you can? Personally, I've always been envious of the wealthy. They could practically buy their way thr

2AM thoughts

It's 2AM. I couldn't sleep. I thought maybe using this time to write would be great. Hey, I'm up thinking about you. You're too hard on yourself. I'm sorry I couldn't get my thoughts through most of the time. You're the best thing that happened to me. Nothing but a great son and a caring brother, a great husband for putting myself above anything. With the expectations and the weight over your shoulder, It doesn't mean you couldn't take a break to give yourself some space. In a few days I'll be home, hoping that could ease your anxiety. No more falling, okay? One step at a time, my love. I'm sure you'll get there somehow. I have your back. You have my words.
