I-Deologue

We moved in summer 2005 and we moved out in spring 2007.. Through the external seasons of snow, flowers, summers, and leaves,  time floats by with internal seasons of bittersweet memories.. Time that teaches us the meaning of life and what’s all about. If I would to describe here each and every detail of our memories here, i’ll just run out of words or maybe tears of gratefulness..  briefly i’d say that for the time that we live here, i’m blessed.. i’m blessed with happiness, friendship and what’s more, i’m blessed with an opportunity to ‘grow’.. alhamdulillah..
For the friendship i sought, i find joy and warmth there - my beloved housemates ‘mummy’ nafis, huda, ‘gran’ farah and wawa - i’m so just happy to be with you all together we went through the rocky pathways and it’s nice to have each other to fall back into during sickness, we took care of each other, during stressful exam times, we support each other, during domestic household problems, we solved it together, we’re just like sisters and during fights, we managed to apologize and hug each other again after things settled.. all of the memories that we created and we shared under this same roof, it’s priceless, i cant buy it or find it anywhere else, as it’s the lessons of life.  Thank you all. and for my ‘mummy’ whom going back to PMC soon, life here would never be the same without you, we’ll just feel ‘incomplete’.. be missing u so much..dont forget us here mummy..
i’ll always remember the early morning ambience when crossing the canal everyday to class.. with the graceful white swans floating on the clear water, birds chirping and the smell of fresh dew, life seems so perfect ..

Thank you so much to our fellow ‘tough’ friends " mamat, jimi, malol, onyang, bakry, mat kurt and nabil" who helped us with the heavy duty boxes!!! moving house surely is not one easy thing! we are overwhelmed with feelings of gratitude, for without their help, we just cant manage it ourselves..

    And the time has finally come for my dear PMC friends to leave Dublin..life just goes on..  for two and half years we faced all the hardship of medical life and also the joy of it, we shared the tough challenges of life in Dublin and also the happy moments of the cherished occasions…. With families a thousand miles away, friendship what makes us stand strong here..friends have become like family.. and i’m blessed with such good friends who are always sweet and dear ..
i’ll certainly miss them so much.. life here will be a bit lonelier.. but whatever and wherever we are, let’s remain strong in the right path and let not this be an end to a lifelong friendship

"Ya Allah, Engkau mengetahui bahwa hati-hati kami ini telah berkumpul di
tempat ini karena mengasihi-MU; bertemu untuk memenuhi perintah-Mu;
bersatu untuk memikul beban da’wah-Mu. 

Dan jika Engkau mentakdirkan mati, maka matikanlah pemilik hati-hati
ini sebagai para syuhada dalam perjuangan agama-MU. 
Engkaulah sebaik-baik sandaran dan sebaik-baik penolong. "

our grandpa, who we lovingly call him ayoh, is 78 years old. He’s a sweet gentle kind of person, that soft spoken kind, and we all ( his cucus’) are very2 fond of him.. but for the late 2 years, he’s not being himself anymore.. he can’t remember our names and fail to recognize familiar people and places. Forgetfulness begins to
interfere with his daily activities. He used to be kaki masjid, but right now he can’t even pray. Our beloved Ayoh is in middle stages of Alzheimer Disease. Yes, there’s just no cure for that and my heart aches a lot to hear his deterioting without me being with him. Without our grandma’s help, he may
forget how to do simple tasks like brushing their teeth or combing
their hair. He can no longer think clearly. He begin to have problems
speaking- finding the usual word to convey his usual need- understanding, let alone reading, or writing.

He’s just like a child right now. He forget the things we tell him just seconds after. He even forget whose grandma is sometimes, his wife for almost 55 years! But there’s a person who he always call far- his late mother, mek- his memories always go back to his younger times- telling us his home is in tumpat, not KB where his house is now. He thinks his young- in his 20s and not married yet..he learned english during the british era, and despite his condition now, he still speak simple english with me! in the morning i ask him, how do u do ayoh? his answered ‘i;m fine’ - in the noon i ask him again- he answered- i’m good- in the evening- i’m ok .. 
once my aunt - ciksu- told me when i called her in tganu " ely, do u know that ayoh always look at the family picture frames on the table ? and one nite, he took one frame and hug it in his sleep. guess whose picture it was? it’s your graduation picture" and i just cried there n there.

and at one time, a week before i fly to dublin- ayoh went missing, wondered away from home. he was back hours later, a kind hearted stranger brought him back. he told ma the story - he found ayoh wondering around in front of his shop- looking strange, he asked ayoh where’s his going- and ayoh answered - i want to go to KL to send my cucu to england…

ayoh, i’m sorry for not being there to help you..and for ma, please be strong taking care of ayoh. well there’s something that i want to tell both of you here, things that’s difficult to say out loud ( due to cultural preferances) that i love u ayoh n ma so much…
