If your name is Hanisah, you're not allowed to read till 07/04/2007

I didn't get to win that bloody shuffle by blogging. (Lucky draw? Come on! It's unfair for someone who never have luck! Or the fortune teller said so.)

At least, I earn myself bunch of great friends from all over the world! Asia? South East Asia, bah... Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei only lar if you insist.

One of the greatest, Hanisah.

A Malay Hijabbi in Toowomba, Australia and a Chinese girl in Seria, Brunei Darussalam.
What do we have in common? Great Minds!
Muahahahhaaa. No kidding.

Only after a few random conversation in MSN, we spilled out our darkest secrets telling each other the silly mistakes we regretted in our life and share opinions and gossips.

..which I seldom does that. I mean, I don't even tell my friends about it, what's more to say when she's only a 'cyber' friend whom I never met. And also, I can't even be sure if she's telling me the truth.


But, she just gives me a feeling that I can put my faith in her. Perhaps it's her hijab that does magic on me.

We complained to each other regarding the unfairness we encountered, idiots who get on our nerves, and how some silly people annoys us.

Her greatest quote,

"God gave everyone a brain,

but not all came with a manual on how to use it."

And there was this time when she asked,

Why are there so many idiots around us?

My answer?

Because God wants to show us how smart we are!

(And you better be laughing at our great quotes/jokes!)


I remember the first time I saw her, is when she finally come back to Brunei and finished with her house-moving project to Seria, which is.. same area with me!

Erm, technically.. that's more like her second home, or house.

Imagine how funny it was, based on the address she gave me, I drove to her house, pressed the door bell, heart thumping... feeling all the anxiety!

(Excuse me. Not the "OMG! He's looking at me! I'm going to faint!" type of heart-thumping, but the.. "I'm so excited to finally get to see this girl whom I'd chat so much with" kind of thrill)


After saying hi to her parents and answered a couple of questions, (I know, like interviewing the boyfriend kan?), we went to KB WYWY, sat there for almost 2 hours ordering only one 100Plus and one Lemon-Ping, chit chatting like those kopitiam uncles (except our legs are nicely cross and not shaking as if there's an earthquake) and thinking what to do for the GBNO.

Together, we made a Breast Cancer and PCOS Awareness brochure, she provides the brain and I did it with my skills.

She wants to be policewoman!
Got potential kah? =p

And I bet her speech had made all of us who attended the party touched and cried a little in our heart, thinking that how blessed we are with healthy bodies...

A night with gorgeous ladies and sexy mamas

And that... is Hanisah, constantly reminding me that I should feel content with what I have now. Giving me positive feedbacks and motivate me.

And also, give me a hand when I'm stuck blogging half way thinking of an alternative way to put my words sound nicer and less offensive with her better-than-Nonnie's English.


p/s: Mizi takes good photos!

And last Tuesday, after giving her birthday gifts, she bugged me to join her in her favorite author's, Randa Abdel-Fattah public lecture. I like her book title though, "Does my head look big in this?"

I made myself a national escape appearance on TV! Am so getting in trouble if anyone finds out.



My friend asked me, "Why? She wants you to convert into Muslim kah?"

And I asked her back the same question, "Eh dang, you want me to be a muslim kah? I won't give up touching cute doggies, puppies and also eating p_ rk one leh. "

(Sorry if the above words make you feel uncomfortable)

Yeah, that is how open I can talk to her, about religious issues, personal encounters, world news (terkarang!) .... and also jokes about adults explicit topics. Don't you cow-dung me that you never had dirty talks with your friends ah.

Whenever I had problems with my kids, my students that is due to lack of understanding in their religion, she's the best person to ask.

(My students actually came up to me and asked, "Cikgu orang cina kah? Cikgu ada makan....itu.. B-A-B-I?") <- tell me, how would you answer this!

(Okay Hanisah.. if you're secretly reading this,
you should seriously close the window now)

Her birthday is coming on this 7th April, Saturday. As a (very cute, nice, kind, gorgeous, helpful and funny) friend, of course.. I'll choose to make her birthday gifts rather than buying the icy cold one from the stores.

Got more heart and meaning like that mah.







Based on the above photos, can you agak-agak picture how her card will looks like?

*ta da*

Oh, please tell me the card looks nice.
Tell me, tell me!

As for the inner page, I'll save it for her eyes only.

And birthday gift, I made it myself too..
Erm, correction.. I modify it.

She told me she likes to collect notebooks.
She told me I shouldn't waste any money in buying her pressies.

Solution..

Can you guess how it'll turn out to be?

Result-

A nice D.I.Y Notebook.

For Hanisah to fill the colorful pages with joy and fun!

Why "N"?

Because the letter N stands for the nicest thing in the world, take for example..
Nonnie, and Nisah.

And of course, Notebook too.

Muahahhhahaaa. Satisfy with my answer or not?
