Doha el Qatar

I used to think that I had enough of Doha and his cranky old Arabs, who think big of themselves, who knows no respect for others, impatient, undeciplines, bla bla bla
But here I am, stepping my foot on it's land again, hoping to start off a new life, a complete opposite of the old hectic life in London, and hopefully making slighltly smarter choice from our previous experience in Doha. Truth is, when I compare the life that I used to have in Malaysia and abroad; we are no different than the arabs or any race in the world. They are just rage againts the pendatang, as our non-acceptance towards the pendatang in our country too. But the big different between us and them are, malays are culturally groomed to be sopan-santun, lemah-lembut budi bahase, so we won't show off our rage as much as them.
Physically, Doha is still the same; same old airport, same old road (but with many extension), same old heat, same old dusty air and same old friends. The same night that I arrived, we've been invited to makan Laksam at Ija's. Delicious as always. It's like old time, with the same old friends and the same non-agenda dine.

The thing that I admire the most is, how easy Myra is adjusting, maybe because she knew, this is her tanah-tumpah-darahku; she's finally home. At the airport, when she first saw her Daddy, she was a bit shy, she was speechless, cam tak percaye pun ade. Then once in the car, she kept laughing her heart out.. maybe she was really excited and happy, maybe her little heart even said ''Alhamdulillah, akhirnya I found Daddy''. I can really tell by her obvious little laughter; the one i never seen before. ;)

So.. here we go again! a whole new journey in the arab world.. lots of things to do; for a start, we are currently in our empty rented apartment, so hafta do lotss of furniture hunting!

Yup, some mite know that we used to get a furnished accomodation before, but this time, we are choosing wisely, we took the housing alowance instead, settling in what cozy enough for the three of us. No need for a big villa anymore. One thing that we learnt from our hard life in London is the value for money. We are lucky enough, being granted a second chance in life. I pray that this time around, we'll be smarter and off for a good life! Aminnnnnnnnnnnnnn
