SUPER-HEROIC-BROTHER-IN-LAW

Hahaha... it seemed that my brand new bro-in-law is a bit unhappy i did not mention him in my flood story (read his comment if u don't believe me ^_^) just kidding. well... actually he was the one who had all the guts to drive the Kembara through the water while my sister prayed all the way. She prayed really hard and LOUD! hahaha... I was busy typing sms on my phone *wink* Thanks Abang Ngah... So now everyone knows u really are a SUPER-HEROIC-BROTHER-IN-LAW who came to my rescue during the flood... Just like Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers

FINALLY I'M DOWN



There were many things had been done and still needed to be done till the end of the year. The lists seems to be endless. I was busy with the so called 'big project' since the starting of the month and still struggling to complete it as it needed to be 'closed' at the end of the year. I was also busy planning, organizing, preparing and making sure my beloved sister's wedding sail smoothly without a hitch (It was not an easy task as she is a very sensitive and demanding lady ^_^ sorry kak!) During the wedding itself I was running here and there settling any matters needed to be settled (be it trivial or serious).
Then... there's a matter the great big flood which hit the town unexpectedly. I was almost stranded at the other side of town, but luckily my sister was there. So we went through the rising water (which scared me silly as I can feel the water against the Kembara's door) We were surrounded by water which almost submerged the tyres. Alhamdulillah... we got to the other side safely. However we were stranded in the middle for three days as the town was badly flooded.
Then... there's a matter of finding our way out to KL as there was going to be a wedding reception for my sister at the groom's house. It semed hopeless for us as all the way out were cut off. After sending dozens of sms around to friends asking for clear route to Kl we managed to find a way out. We went to KL via the Segamat -Kuantan, Bahau - Seremban, Senawang - KL route. It took us almost 6 hours to reach my brother's house in Cheras (Normally it takes only 3 hours) it's like a trip from the south up north. After enjoying ourselves in KL, again dozens of sms were sent to find a clear way back to Segamat.
Then... there's a meeting needed to be attended. Once I went around town, the place looked as if it was strucked by a minor tsunami. There were debris and rubbish all over town. The buildings and roads were also damaged. Cars were lining up outside workshops waiting for their turn to be repaired (they were 'drowned' in the flood *wink*)
And finally I got the big prize...
I was down with fever for 2 days. I kept on vommitting for the whole night. Due to that I had no chance to revise for my so called 'exam'. I went into the exam hall, answered all the questions, went out and hope for the best.

WORST FLOOD EVER




It was a shocked to people in Segamat as we are suddenly facing the worst flood ever since 1950s. The water level rose within 2 hours in most residential areas near town causing many to be evacuated. The new town centre is also badly flooded where all the 4 major shopping centres were affected. Water rose submerging both bridges in Segamat. Unexpected places were flooded in just a couple of hours, Leaving the residents hopeless as they are not prepared for it. Most wre unable to save their belongings as the water rose unexpectedly. All route out of the town are cut off. People here are unable to go out. Most are stranded because they can't go home or out. People in Segamat Baru and Bandar Putra are also cut off from the outside world as both route to KL and JB are badly flooded. Hopefully the food supply here will be enough until the water level subsided.

I'LL DO MY BEST

I'm still trying to hold up with everything that is happening this month. Hopefully I'll manage to go through everything without a scratch. But, I'm a little scared to start my class. It's been almost 7 years since I last went to UM. I bet a lot of things had changed since I left it in 1999. I was supposed to do my master 2 years back but due to a few problems I had to postpone my plan. I'm just glad that finally I have the chance to go through with it, though I'm scared. Regardless of what'll happen I will try to go through the years of studying ahead the best I can. I'll pray to god, I can go through the lectures, course works, exams and also the frequent 3 hours journey with patience and determination. I know everyone will be praying for me to...

LOVELY PAIR

Went to a friend's wedding last saturday with Shah & Red. Glad that I can still remember the way to her house in BP. Luckily I managed to drive there without any problems. I can't describe what I felt when I saw her in her wedding finery standing beside her brand new husband *sigh* I think both of them look very compatible together. Way 2 go girl! hahaha... But... being Uyean, she was still the same eventhough it was her wedding. We managed to spare some time gossiping about a lot of things with the bride. CONGRATULATIONS Uyean.

That night Shah & I took Red out for dinner and a brief tour around our 'little' town. I'm happy that another friend of mine was here in my hometown.
