MU vs. M'sia punya hal

Salam to all again,

This week ... only Allah knows how hectic life is this weekends. I went to S.Alam alone by bus on Friday night .. yeap,for my phd classes. The next morning, luckily my sis sent me to uitmsa by car, else got to take a cab. I finished my classes around 12noon, take a local bus supposed to be to Pasar Seni. Since this is my first time after ages not taking bus from SA to KL ... I got out of the bus at the wrong place and got to take a cab to Puduraya ... where I waited for my hubby and 4 kids to arrive from Butterworth by bus. My eldest did not come along bcoz of his 'boot-camp' at Ulu Paip.

We walked to the Maytower Hotel ... near Jakel /Ariani shoplots ...not to far away from Sogo. Here we are given a room at the 28th level! Nice views ... small room but very nicely decorated ... urban design I would say

Around 4pm my hubby and 3 kids when to the Bukit Jalil stadium for the awaited football league! MU vs. M'sia .... 3-2!

Me and my youngest kid (18 mths) stay at the hotel ... well, not really. Izz (my youngest) was not feeling very comfortable due to the tiny ulcers on his tongue well. Shouting at about everything ... feeling sorry for him. So we went for window shopping hoping that will ease his pain a bit... and not being so 'bad mood' all the time. We then stop at Jakels and met my ex-primary schoolmate, one of the daughters of Jakel. Lucky for her for the wealth given to him by Allah ...

All my 4-footballers got backed around 9pm, so I decided to go back to Shah Alam tonight bcoz I got another class tommorrow. Not knowing which where to go, I called my sis and she directed me to the Bank Negara Commuter Station ... a weird and frightening short journey, I would say!

Alhamdulillah I reach Subang Jaya Station and waited for my sis to fetch me. Got my 'nasi bungkus' for dinner and dipped in !

The next day, i went to my class with Surya ... my other phd friend...g0 to PTAR4 library but unluckily most of the books needed were not there but at PTAR INTEC at sec17...try to xerox some of the pages, the machine was down ... so got to bring all the 4-thick books home to Penang by bus. Unbelievable my first 3 hours of the journey were filled with reading activites ...

I reached Seberang Jaya round 8pm (4pm from SA)... reached home, brought all the kids to KFC for dinner. Izz still not feeling very well ... I guess he was starving due to the ulcer....he just wouldn't try to drink and eat anything ... keep screaming at everybody who was trying to tease him. I decided to give him air Yassin-zam-zam ...pray to Allah hope that He easy away the pain.

Alhamdulillah this morning, Izz seems to be in much better condition ... drinking 2 bottles of milk and not crying as much as last night. Hope the ulcers will fade away ...insyaAllah.

Classes oooo classes ...

Last Thursday (july 2) we took the 4.30pm Xpress bus from Penang and finally reached Shah Alam at about 7.30 pm. Took a cab to my sister's house in Sec.13 and overnight there.

The next day,for the first time I met my 3 phd supervisors (yeah ...THREE ;-}) in Shah Alam. Why 3? Well I guess I really need more than 1 experts to supervise me ... just in case anything happen to the first supervisor (nauzubillah), or she's away, or busy or ... then I still have another 2 to help me ... insyaAllah ;-} Heheh ...just playin' safe ...I hope. Believe it or not ...they already assigned me with a list of things to do ... phd fever, here u come!
Saturday and Sunday...got 2 hours classes, respectively. Luckily the lecturer was okay ...2 hours went by without much problems ...at least my eyes were opened the whole time eventhough the night before I only slept for 3-4 hours ;-]

I learnt lots of new things ... classes, supervisors, in-campus buses, taxi, library, postgrad.labs, foodcourts ... and not to forget, shoppiiiiinggg!

Tommorrow ... 11.30pm bus to Shah Alam! again ...

..and the circles will continue for the rest of my 3-year phd !

Thankfully & alhamdullillah, I got a very understanding and cooperative husband ... he got his phd back in 1998... I guess this is my turn to reach 'the star' .... thank u!
