Shaura Marissawas born last Monday on 21 June 2010 1810hrs, weighing at 2.675kg. She shares the same birthday as 30-year-old Daddy Fazlan and 60-year-old Nenek Salmah. What makes this triple celebration interesting, my mum-in-law was 30 when she was pregnant with Fazlan. 30 years on, it's Fazlan's turn to receive his first bundle of joy. Plus...Shaura was born exactly a day after our first wedding anniversary (akad nikah). Yes, we are that lucky ;)
Picture above taken before delivery. No words can describe how I felt when I first held her in my arms. For sure, I'm so going to miss having you inside my tummy, Shaura! Your kicks and hicks made my day, knowing you're alive and safe inside.
Thank you mums and dads, siblings, sis-in-law, friends and colleagues for paying us a visit.
Thank you Naqiah for this beautiful post. It made me teared...never knew I would have made a difference in someone's life.
Verdict's out. Met my gynae this morning. Baby is going to see the world anytime soon. I'm already 2cm dilated. Am currently in a bloody mess cos The Show has started. Am excited and anxious at the same time.
June's looking really good now with multiple celebrations:
Z: I'm going to buy you shoes for your birthday. F: There's an old saying - if you buy shoes for your loved ones, they'll run away. Z: Oh, that's because the shoes don't fit. F: What makes you think it'll fit mine? Z: 'Cos it feels right.
Fazlan is already asleep. Poor him. I've never seen him in such a fragile state before. I'm worried when he said, "I thought I was going to die." He's not the sort who's drama-mama.
It must be so painful for him, knowing that men's tolerance towards pain is way higher than women.
Somehow, I have this feeling that I'm the one who passed him the viral infection. I had a sudden nosebleed 3 days back, probably due to heatiness and fever.
For now, I'm just glad and thankful that he's not hospitalised.
Now, let's think positive, shall we?
In 2 days time, Baby will be 7 months old (I don't like to count exact no. of weeks, it's just way too confusing for me). And in 2 months time, Fazlan and I will be celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary.
Everything will be fine. Let's pray for the best!
Haha! Seeing this picture makes me laugh! Counting down to double happiness - delivery and anniversary.
Selamat ulang tahun sayang Kini kau bersayap pergilah terbang Rentaslah langit cita-citamu Harap nanti kita bertemu
Terlalu banyak kenangan manis bersama Sang Singa Purba. Ketika di Tahun Ketiga, aku mendapat mesej daripada presiden sebuah persatuan Melayu. Firdaus namanya. Very charming guy. So aku layanlah si Fir ni sampai larut malam. Hahaha!!! Tapi topik yang diperbualkan bukanlah berbaur cinta…cuma setakat berbual tentang aktiviti-aktiviti sekolah walaupun dalam hati boleh cairrrrr beb! :p
Fir melamarku untuk memasuki sebuah pertandingan drama yang dianjurkan kelab persatuan Melayu NUS. Aku terima lamaran Fir dengan hati terbuka kerana hadiahnya agak lumayan – wang tunai $1000! Dengan syarat, aku mesti menubuh kumpulan itu sendiri kerana Fir cuma ada Haddad, Humairah dan Huda ketika itu. Aku gembira kerana diberi kepercayaan bagi tugasan yang agak besar. Kerana kurang kakitangan, aku mendapatkan khidmat kakakku, Noor Hasnah bagi skrip drama tersebut. Aku mendapatkan 7 orang lagi (3 ahli kelab silat SP, coursemates DMC Azlina dan Shikin, Alfiah, serta kawan baikku Adibah) untuk memampatkan lagi jalan cerita.
Pada tanggal 8 November 2003, pihak NUS mengadakan majlis taklimat bagi para peserta. Kami dikehendaki mengisi borang beserta nama kumpulan. Memandangkan Politeknik Singapura merupakan politeknik pertama di Singapura, maka lahirnya nama “The Ancient Lions” yang dialih bahasa kepada Sang Singa Purba.
Pejam celik pejam celik, hari ini sudah genap enam tahun Sang Singa Purba ditubuhkan.
Ibarat seperti bayi yang mula merangkak, lalu bertatih, berdiri dan hari ini dapat berlari dan berdikari, aku pasti Sang Singa Purba adalah kebanggaanku dan juga kebanggaan generasi pertama dan generasi seterusnya, di mana jua mereka berada.
