So long 2012

Hokay, 7 more days to 2013 and I am excited to welcome the new year and to add 1 more year into my age.

My husband and I went through a lot of challenges in 2012. No. I do not have any marital problem or of that sort. We were just slapped with issues with the houses that we bought. The one that we bought in early 2012 from Puan Sri Drama Queen, which the purchase was not as smooth as we expect it to be. It is still not resolved, but I am prayaing so hard to Allah that we will eventually get the house without having to go to Court. Ha, yes, it may involve the Court if we are left with no other options. And the other house that we bought back in 2008 and was so bloody delayed in handing over, and when it was finally handed over, the defects are unacceptable. And nak rectify defects pun lembap, mengalahkan Talam. But they are not Talam, they are Mayland. Never again I will buy a house from you, Mayland, you sux.

But anyways, the house issue was not the only rollercoaster rides that we went through, let see...

My transfer to PDS was sooo delayed because my old department headed by a dictator-like HOD decided to only let me go when they find a replacement, who never actually came until the end. But in the end, after much persuasion, I joined PDS on 1 June 2012. 5 months delayed. But better late than never, kan.

I found that my son and his friends were physically punished by the kindy teacher and it resulted in a heated argument between the parents and the principal and some people in the management of "this organisation" who decided to take sides (of course la side the kindi principal tu kan). This whole ordeal had also resulted in me and another mother to get called and being told off by the ED of the department that oversee the management of the kindi. As far as I am concerned, I did nothing wrong, she can stab me in the stomach if she wants. I stand by my principle, i do not condone to anything that is against my principle.

There were also a few other stuff, which may be abit too personal for me to pen it down here. But we survived. Alhamdulillah, I survived all these challenges. I do not know how I faced all that, but I know Allah guided me through my journey and will continue to guide me through the path that He wants me to follow.

Year 2013, I hope will be a fresh new beginning for me and the family. I know there would still be issues spilled over from year 2012 that we still need to deal with, but I hope we will be as strong, if not stronger to face it together.

My son, will be entering a new kindergarten in January. It'll be an Islamic Montessori. I do not know how the new school will fair on him but I am just keeping my options open, and take one step at a time. Afterall, I am grateful that I am still much luckier than some other parents who have more than 1 kids to sort out.

Ok. Like I said, 7 more days to go before 2013. And in the mean time, I shall enjoy these last few days of 2012 to reflect what I have done..... as well as those that I have not done.
