10 malam terakhir Ramadan Covid19

Sekejap je rasa bulan Ramadan ni.. 😅 Tup tup tinggal less than 10 days. Aduih.. Ape yang aku dah buat?  Entahla.. Tiap2 tahun rasa macam banyak je benda nak buat.. Tapi, macam same je result every year. I tot dalam PKPB ni, aku maybe akan banyak lagi beribadat, tapi tengok cam same je cam tahun lepas.. 😅

Sekrang aku dah masuk juzuk 25 Al-Quran, Alhamdulillah.. Nasib baik ade geng tadarus, at least aku paksa diri jugak untuk baca. Kalau tak, sure malas.. Duduk rumah sesaja pun same je malas.. Haish..

10 malam terakhir ni, orang mostly pulun nak kejar malam Lailatul Qadar, aku pun teringin jugak.. Harap2 diberikan kekuatan. 

2 hari lepas, aku bagitau Mishel, your birthday is coming really soon.. Dah die mule demand nak calendar pulak, so dia boleh cross hari2 yang dah berlalu.. Kire cam countdown ke birthday dia la 😅

Doa dia hari2 skrang lepas solat, nak robux.. Adei.. Takpela, kecik lagi, itu je la dunia yang dia tau pun.. Haha.. Asalkan nak solat sama2 dah kira bersyukur sangat2. Sayu pulak tengok my bobot nak masuk 8 tahun dah next month.. 😭

Korang buka ape arini? Kiteorg makan ni je..

Haha.. SiL aku beraksi gigih ambik gambo food 😜

Raya bersyarat 2020

PM Muhyiddin baru announce tadi, PKPB extended ke 9June 2020. Means 4 minggu lagi, so berayalah kita dalam PKPB. Tapi Alhamdulillah macam kes kiteorang, memang family 2-2 blah duduk dekat2, Mr. AI dkat Puchong (but now memang dah memerap di Bangi same2 dengan Ibu Ayah) , family aku dkat Semenyih.

So, bolehlah raya sama-sama, PM cakap boleh berkumpul dengan syarat, takbleh lebih 20 orang, kena duduk jarak-jarak, pakai mask, sanitize bagai cam biase.

Aku sampai sekarang macam tak caya aku dapat rezeki berpuasa, then nak beraya dekat Malaysia. Alhamdulillah. Dah berapa tahun duduk merantau, kali ni Allah bagi peluang puasa penuh dengan family dekat Malaysia, and soon beraya pulak. Itu pun kalau airport Qatar still tak bukak sampai raya la.. (which what was the case, dengar macam akan bukak end June).

Tapi aku baru je seronot takyah buat kueh raya, nak raya virtual je, sekali boleh pulak orang datang beraya.. Dah kena pikir kuih raye jugakla ni hahahaha. 

Ni gamba food berbuka puasa ramai2 haritu dkat Bangi, kakak n adik Mr. AI datang. Ni baru bukak puasa, dah semeriah tu.. Raya kang, tak tau la bape panjang lagi 🤣

gerak antara daerah dibenarkan

PKPB, MROC.. Wa pening.. Gerak antara Daerah boleh, tapi gerak raya raya xbleh 😅.. Max dalam kete 4 org. Kluar tanpa had masa.. So basically, nak shopping raya gi Key Ell, biz almost as usual,.. tapi untuk apa? .. Raya diam2 dalam rumah sudah.. 

Kiteorang pun dah tekad, baju raya beli sepasang sorang je, ckop syarat nak ambik gamba pagi raya. Kalau kotor baju tu, dah back to baju dirumah 😂

Semalam selepas hampir 2 bulan budak-budak ni tak keluar langsung dari rumah, akhirnya berjaya bawak gi rumah nenek atok berbuka sekali dengan cousin-cousin yang lain. 

Terawikh dengan Atok as Imam. Kenangan koronamu.. PKPB ni pun dah nak sampai ke hujung.. Cuma masing2 kena pandai2 jaga diri. Jumpa family terdekat sudah. 

Iftar ke 8 dan PKPB mulai 4 May

1 May haritu, PM buat pengumuman khas sempena labour day. As hadiah hari labour dieorg dah benarkan banyak lagi bisnes to open as usual. Ini termasuklah shopping mall. Dieorang panggil PKPB pulak, means Perintah kawalan Pergerakan Bersyarat.

Contohnya restaurants dah boleh dine in, tapi kena siap2 buat meja kerusi tu jarak-jarak.

Then yang paling aku suka dalam banyak2 is, berlari berbasikal individu dah dibenarkan dekat luar. Tapi aku tak brapa setuju dia benarkan dalam group tak lebih dari 10. Ko biar jela dieorang tu bersukan sorang-sorang. Tak payahla kasi chance untuk dieorang ni guna alasan untuk berkumpul 😅. Takpela, janji aku bleh lari keluar dah start isnin nanti.

Hari ni kiteorang berbuka macam-macam. Ibu dah ada youtube channel untuk kumpul resepi-resepi menarik. Kalau nak cuba masak macam Tok Mi, bolehla subscribe. Sementara masih dalam PKP ni, rajinla Mr. AI mengupdate resepi collection. Dah abes PKP nanti tak tau la camana. Tu yang tetiba meriah gile pulak food semalam. Aku siap buat sizzling yee mee. Nanti aku share resepi mane aku try, senang dan sedap 😋

Yang pasti, aku mesti rindu. Ingatkan dapatla teruskan PKP camni sepanjang Ramadan, tapi dah ade PKPB pulak, sah-sahla akan kurang best Ramadan dah. Dari tak ada alasan nak keluar shopping raya, dah bukak pulak kedai macam biasa. Kompemla ramai keluar membeli, termasukla kami. Maka kuranglah masa untuk l fokus dekat ibadat. 😞

Okla, till then.. 

Ramadan quarantine pertama #koronamu

Alhamdulillah, dalam kita mengeluh, Allah masih sayangkan kita. Bagi peluang bertemu sekali lagi Ramadan. Dah selamat berbuka dengan lauk yang sangat meriah. 

Rasa special sangat Ramadan quarantine ni, sebabnya semua sama2 satu family, dari bersahur, solat subuh, sampailah berbuka, maghrib, isyak dan terawikh. Alhamdulillah.

Tenang sangat, takde rushing2 nak kejar keluar ke, dah abes, terus boleh lepak tengok tv pulak.. 

Pagi2 tadi aku pun berjaya join geng tadarus Doha, (memang tahun lepas lagi dah sama2 khatam dengan dieorg). Tahun ni, kiteorg cuba lagi, dengan tambahan 2 orang ahli. Kul 9 pagi Malaysia/Singapore, 4pagi Qatar, kami semua bertemu di Zoom.

Ok jugak, clear, take turn baca sorang 1 page, sampailah juz 2. 

Semoga istiqomah. 

Ramadan di zaman PKP Covid19

PKP, MCO hari ke 37.. PM Muhyiddin baru announce lanjutan PKP fasa 4, so as expected pun.. Memang dah bersedia mental nak raya dalam rumah je ni 😅.

Malam ni masuk Ramadhan pertama di Malaysia. So, the new norm is everyone to stay input and pray with their families. Lebih banyak masa, takyah sebok fikir pasal majlis berbuka sana sini. Semoga kita istiqamah dan cuba ambil peluang keemasan ni untuk lebih fokus dalam memperbaiki ibadah, InsyaaAllah..

Ramadhan Kareem uols.. 

Aku pun baru abes lari 9km keliling bilik ke bilik. Mental.. Tak sangka berjaya. Ini dek sebab virtual run challenge, 21.1km dlm masa 4 hari, so aku berjaya lari 7, 5.1 then 9km. Alhamdulillah 💖. 

Ramadhan nanti mungkin tak mampu nak berlari, so kena carik program lain untyk stay fit. Perut ni dah tak tau kembung camane dah.. 😅.. May Allah give me strength 💪. 

Bermain Musical chair sempena Covid19 at Econsave

Hari ni, PKP/MCO/RMO yang ke 35. Lagi bape hari nak Ramadan.. Satu hikmah dalam musibah Alhamdulillah. Ramadan kali ni, mungkin kita dapat fokus lagi dlm ibadah, dah takyah sebuk majlis buka puase sane sini. Duk rumah diam diam..

Pagi jam 1130 camtu aku ke Econsave, sebab dah few times pegi beli barang2 dapur dkat Jaya Grocer, terasa sangar beza harga, so nak tak nak aku redha la jugak gi econsave, which mean kena beratur dari pintu masuk.. 😅 (Sebenarnye penah kena skali nasib baik, kosong, takde beratut, terus dapat masuk.. Mungkin tengok time).

So, sampai2 as aspected line cam ular sawo.. Berliku-liku.. Tak lama lepas ty, guard dtg tanye dkat pakcik depan aku, 'Umo 60 tahun ke atas ka?' Pakcik tu angguk.. 'Ok mari sini..' Guard tu tunjuk arah pintu masuk.. Untonglaa.. Bagus jugak, kesian warga-warga emas tu kalau kena beratur.

Tapi line xdela lame sangat pun, kejap-kejap moving forward.. Then bila nak dekat2 sampai pintu masuk tu, ada susunan kerusi untuk duduk tunggu.. Terus aku teringat game musical chair. Hahaha.. Layan...

lupe plak nak timing bape lame beratur.. Tapi bagi aku ok je time tu, worth it, aku dapat beli hampir semua yang dalam list aku.. Persiapan nak masuk Ramadan jugakla ni, harap2 tak payah keluar selalu dah..

Kopi Barista

Not that I like coffee that much, but I like the idea of a cool barista.. Making those coffee from scratch. Maybe I'll give this a try.. What else to do whilst stuck at home right?

Building a skill seems like a good idea. Maybe after this, I can finally open up that dream cafe of mine. I dunno.. These few years has been horrible to me. I got scared to venture into new business.. Unlike few years back.

What is happening? I dunno..

But slowly I'm trying to gain back my confidence.. Trying to build some skills that might work for my benefits. 

Starting with caffee latte today with the new coffee machine we got from Shoppee.. 😅

#koronamu day 33 stayed at home in Malaysia

Basikal, Zwift and K-Drama

Ok, I have lost many days..  I didn't write anything. Kinda forgot the pledge I hold after my ehem-ehem birthday.. Today suddenly remembered my dear bloggy.. :D

Today, after many days of feeling lost, stress, bored in quarantine day (literally lost count).. I finally got the chance to join few of my tri-buddies, oh actually more like tri-sisturz to Zwift. Yeah, I don't really have the complete equipment to set my zwift, so what I can, is to just view them on Zwift, whilst I ride on the cheap trainer we bought from Shoppee last week (yes! this is for real!) whilst also watching my K-Drama for this week: What's Wrong with Secretary Kim.

Here's the cheap bike trainer I bought from Shopee.. it's RM160ish after discount. The quality is as aspected, but it is still fine, at least I can ride something :D

The K-Drama on another hand, hurmmm... like the typical korean love-story, where the hero is tall, supposedly handsome (not really my type), with a petite and cute heroin, 2 of which main tarik tali, kadang suke suke suke.. kadang, benci benci benci, but in the end, memang like each other, and finally kiss- the kiss yang ala ala malu malu kucing tewww.. nyampah. (tapi aku enjoy jugek tengok, gelak2 sambil berbasikal dengan kawan2). And oh yeah, I turn on discord call with them, so, we talked too whilst riding.. haaa.. brapa kerja dalam 1 tu.. only for women right? hahaha.. multi-tasking

So at the end of their 40km (and I'm not really sure how long was mine, but I rode the entire 1 hour 38minutes with them, I'm guessing same-same more o r less haha padahal slow) we had the best time after sooooo long of not talking or riding together. It was kind of a release for me too. Now I felt better. I really have to do it more often. Oh yeah, few hours before the ride, I also did a 3km indoor run, literally running in my baju tido barefooted from room to room whilst (haha u guessed it) holding my phone to watch Netflix on the same k-drama.. yeah.. cam addict.. nak buat camane.. things I do to keep sanity in tact :D

So today case,

Qatar COVID 19 update as of 11 Apr 2020

Malaysia COVID 19 update as of 11 Apr 2020

Till then, chiowww

#KoronaMu Day 30 in Malaysia.

Exercise vs Covid 19

Yup, as expected.. Today we reached 2k over of Covid 19 positive cases in Malaysia.. And I woke up earlier with a slight sore throat 😔.

When I told hubster, he himself got some kind of panic attack, started to feel shortness of breath.. Started to think he got the symptom too. But then he jumpe off straight to do some exercise and house chores.. Lucky for me.. And lucky also si for him, the symptom then disappeared. 

I've been reading a lot on people's blog.. How they're getting along with the RMO, some are doing ok.. But some are struggling.. Especially the one with small accommodation. Going out was their way to get sane.. Yes I was using the outing for my sanity too.. So I totally understand..

RMO has restricted going out running or cycling even if doing it alone too.. So I pity those.. But they should have listened to the government, it's the law.. This is the sacrifice we have to do in this hard time.. 

We just have to bare it. 

Almost there guys.. We can do it! 😅 (I know, that's annoying)

#Flatteningthecurve #StayHome 

Things to do whilst staying at home during Restricted Movement Order (RMO)

Ok, it's day 6 for Malaysia, but day 13 for us. Not complaining.. Just wanted to share some ideas to people senasib like me. Heh..

1. Sleep in

Yeah, take your nap longer, now's the time!  Wake up for subuh, then yeah.. Yoy may continue for another hour or so..

2. Yoga

Relax and do some stretching to get the zen. Chill and relax, and keep your sanity intact. Yeah I know, sometimes it's hard to push ourself to even laying out the yoga mat.. I've been there.. But tell yourself, what else to do? 😂

3. Cook

I don't really enjoy this bit. Because I'm really not that strong. If I cook, I'll eat more.. And I will easily put on weight 🙄.

But this is the time to improvise your cooking skills with the littest ingredients you have in your kitchen. 

4. Games

Create a game to play with your family. Luckily for me, just a day before RMO, managed to buy 2 set of badminton, so the kids would grab on and play from time to time.. And they seems to enjoy it too. 

5. DIY

Yeah.. It's time to get creative. Draw that picture or doodle.. Not into it? Then do it anyway.. What else to do at home! 😂

ok nanti sambung.. My husband dah panggil. Chiow! 

#Koronamu dan RMO

Harini aku berjaya puasa sunat Isnin.. Alhamdulillah.. Susah gile nak puase bilemana dah duk biasa pagi tengah hari, petang malam asyek makan, makan dan makan.

Apa lagi nak buat bila stuck dalam rumah dek kerana RMO tu. RMO is Restricted Movement Order.. Bahasa ibundanya Ko duk rumah diam2. So makan je keje.. Aku paksa jugak puasa sebab nak jugakla put a control sebelum semua seluar ketat dan tertetas 😅

Hari ni turn aku kena ke kedai runcit, beli bahan mentah.. Cepat pulak abes sejak semua duduk membesar dirumah 😅

Keluar beli barang cepat-cepat, sekali ternampak gerai cendol still menjual. Aik? Ingatkan RMO ni tak boleh bukak? Tapi maybe sebab kawasan agak tersorok, pakcik tu beranikan diri. Lagipun kesian jugak, mungkin itu je satu-satunya mata pencarian dia..

Aku yang kepingin cendol ni, dengan redho berenti tepi, tapau 5. Ya Allah RM2 je satu? Balik modal ke tak pakcik? Dalam hati aku terdetik.

Tapi itula, dalam zaman sosial media ni, kadang ramai sangat cepat gile nak melenting marah orang tu bodoh, orang ni bodoh.. Apsal la degil tak dengar cakap.. Break the chain, break the chain.. Orang kata.. Tapi realitinya?

Isu balik kampung: Ada kawan aku sendiri mengaku, terpaksa balik kampung hantar anak2 dia untuk parents jaga, sebab sekolah, taska dah tutup, laki bini kena keje. Hmm

Isu doktor tak ngaku sakit: Rupanya doktor dah dapatkan kebenaran, dan sebab dia ke negara Turkey, yang Malaysia tak declare high risk, takde sape nak sebok suruh quarantine. Ini yang aku rase agak ralat dengan health system Malaysia. Kawan aku sendiri, yang baru balik travel, nak ke spital untuk check sakit belakang, tapi bila nurse tanya2 soalan, dia ade batuk dan penah demam, terus spital reject kes, suruh pegi test Covid19 dulu. Bila dia pegi hospital yang boleh test Covid19, spital tu pulak reject dia, sebab kes travel dari negara yang bukan high risk. So, nak salahkan rakyat marhaen sendiri pasal tak check and aware kebarangkalian dia ade Covid19 aku rasa tak boleh jugakla.. Sebab sistem hospital kita sendiri pun nampak macam ambik mudah, sangat berkira untuk orang buat test Covid19 ni. Tau la sebab kos mahal, tapi kalau terus2 macam ni, memang dah terlambat la nak saring sapa yg dah infected, sape tidak. Bukan semua orang mampu nak pergi bayar sendiri kos check Covid19 ni. 

Bila baca kronologi kes2 kematian dr virus ni, mostly mesti kes dieorg mule2 disuruh balik dulu, dah teruk, bape kali berulang spital baru nak test Covid19, time tu mungkin body dia dah lemah.. N dah terlambat 😔. Waallahualam 

Apa-apa pun, aku suka tengok movie2 pasal penyakit virus ni macam Contagion, 93days, bagi some ideas how it spreads and what it's like being on their shoes, i.e shoes doctor, shoes pesakit, shoes keluarga pesakit, shoes government dan sebagainya.. Sebagai iktibar.. Manalah tau, kes2 Malaysia kan dah makin teruk, I am just preparing for the worst. 😔

Get well soon Malaysia. 

... Day 5 of RMO.. 

#KoronaMu

The world seems to be too relax when the first case of coronavirus were detected in Wuhan end of Dec 2019.

I dunno why, but I kinda felt different with the virus, I was supposed to book our family trip to Athens in early April, but somehow, because of the outbreak, I just don't feel right to proceed. I waited out.

Everyday I search for flight and accommodation there, but I still didn't feel good enough to book.

Luckily I didn't. 

The outbreak got worst. 

Today, 20th of March 2020. 

It has now reached pandemic status. Not only that, but other countries seems to following through the number of infected people as was in China. 

A lot could happen in few weeks. 

Last week, my husband was suppose to come back from Nepal from a trip that was arranged like a year ago. But, Qatar suddenly stop anyone coming from Nepal, they have to go to unbanned country for 14days before they can come back to Qatar. 

So, with no choice, he and 4 other friends (all working in Qatar) diverted to Malaysia. Staying there, under self quarantine. Hoping everything will go as smoothly. But.. The situation has gotten worst. 

My gut feelings, from the day Qatar announced closure of all schools in Qatar was right. There will be more strict direction from the government.

 I took a swift action. For me, rather than we are separated, might as well we go back to Malaysia to be together, because a lot can happen in 14days. So, on Wed night, 11th of March, I boarded the flight back with the kids. 

The airport was literally empty. Not with the usual crowds. We were keeping our distance with everyone. Sanitizing all the time. Whilst we were walking towards the aeroplane door, I saw the news: Qatar's coronavirus case hit 238. 

Then there's a news from Kuwait, closing their airport for all incoming and outgoing flights. My god, at that moment, I knew I have made the right decision. Qatar usually will follow close with Kuwait. I was worried for my friends. 

We are about to take off, leaving Qatar behind. My second home. I left with a heavy heart. But, if we are to be locked down, I rather be locked down with my family together in Malaysia. So, I don't really want to think of what the future holds. We may not be able to go back to Qatar.. But is it better to be separated? 

I told the same thing to my friends. 

Today, 20 March 2020.

Qatar has stopped all incoming flights for 14 days. Which mean we can only go back on 1st of April. 

Malaysian cases has gone worst. We are nearing 1k. And we only started with Restricted Movement Order (RMO) for 2 days. Same order which Qatar has taken when they got only 20s cases. I would say Malaysia was a bit late. Some more, the RMO was not that strict enough. People in Malaysia seems to ignore it. 

The day they implemented the RMO, instead of staying put in the house, more people flees all over the country to be with their parents in the village. Just like in Italy when they started to announce lock down. 

Hmmm.. 

Today italy has gone worst than China, surpasses their total deaths. 

I wonder, what will happen to Malaysia.. 

Stay put in your house Malaysian. Don't be selfish and think nothing could ever happen to you. Because as of now, nobody knows who's next. 

Quarantine day 2 for the whole of Malaysia.. But it was day 8 of self quarantine for us. A long way to go.. And many possibilities to come. 

-We can only hope for the best-
