A Movie... and The End of Paradise...*sigh


Me and Munir did something that we have not done for quite some time...WENT TO THE MOVIES. Before we got married, we never deliberated on whether we were going to the movies or not, it was always WHAT movie to watch. But after marriage, pregnancy and Asyraaf...phew, even going to the movies is a pleasure we have learnt to appreciate more than anything before. After thinking of whether to go or not, ( it was finally end of showing in the cinemas), we decided to go. Munir really wanted to watch Transformers while I...err...it actually didn't appeal much to me to watch robots changing into other forms, I mean, what's there other than changing forms...? But I was surprised, it was really a good movie, worth the wait for our first movie in a reaaalllyyy looonnggg timee...:-). But other than that, we enjoyed the company of each other, of just walking and talking ...and enjoying the time we have with each other. A great outing for us...Asyraaf? :-) We sent him to the nursery for the day, Ibu & Ayah need some 'alone' time...hehe.
Another new update, I'll be starting to work next Monday so...begins the episode of rushing off to work, working, rushing back home, and drifting off to sleep in the midst of watching television at night... Personally, and perhaps I am a little old-fashioned in this :-) but I don't really like working. It takes the essence out of life for me, of spending time with little Asyraaf, of waiting for Munir to come home after work, of taking care of the house and u know, enjoy life as a wife and mother. I could never do that when I was working, because I was too tired most of the time from the travelling, and the jam, and everything else. I have often gotten raised eyebrows when I tell people I'm not working when I do have the qualification to do so. I don't know... I guess the paper qualification is just for my personal triumph over my academic accomplishments rather than to earn a living from it. And there is no greater joy to me than caring for my family. Old-fashined huh? *grin. But that's just me I guess...Then again, it is crucial for me to work right now and get extra income for the family, for now. Maybe one day, I'll have all that...insya-Allah...when God permits and we have the extra rezeki... :-) But for now, it is the end of my sweet paradise... :-(
