Who wins? Mind or the Heart?

Assalaamu Alaikum n hies everyone!

Dilemma situation i'm always in..
Should i do the right?
Should i do the wrong?

It doesn't appear wrong when I feel that it gives me happiness..

I feel that if I do what the heart desires, i feel happy, but its actually wrong
I feel that if I do what the mind demands, i feel as though i'm disappointing those around me

In the end, I always choose the demands of the mind as I'm structured that way (meaning I don't deserve the credits, if it leads to good, it is Allah's design of how I should be) and also because I was created to obey Allah's commands, and lead the life the way Rasul (s.a.w) lived..

Inshaa'allah, Allah, Rasul (s.a.w) and my Sheikh will definitely show me the true path for being this way...

A lil bit here and there, some chapters...

Hey everyone! Been away for so so soooooooo long! Yeah I know, I have been abandoning my bloggy for some time, reason, laziness, want to write but write it nicely and not like anyhow, so no time for that, okay so practically its just laziness, lets end it with that.

Okay, so life's been going quite interesting I must say in the time period from where I last left till now.. So, Hari Raya's over, Exams over, Internship is over, Results are out, School has started, Hari Raya Haji is over... hmm what else? Yeah basically these are my milestones or shall I say chapters of my life which have been missed out since my last post. So let me recap and let you all know what happened... :)

Hari Raya
To date I honestly can't remember what was so special? Either it was the usual Hari Raya outing, OR nothing pleasant happened and hence I can't remember, OR I am just too forgetful. Seriously, I cannot even remember what was my Hari Raya outfit.. Was it pink? I remember going to mosque that morning, and Rini had been teasing me saying that I belonged to the Malay guy group who were all wearing pink. But I only could remember an old Baju Kurong that was pink, and definitely I was not wearing that. End of topic.

Exams
Yeah I can remember abit of this period. Wow I sound like an dementia patient or a coma patient who have like lost all the memories and is recovering slowly!! hahah!! Okay so this time was abit stressing in my life! Actually the time period before my exams were most stressing. The Project Saga! Everyone had their own expectations of everyone. But their own expectations were thought of as the most priority or something. I mean there was not even a fair share of or what do they say? Is it, 'everyone had their say?' ? Is that what you call it? Okays nevermind! So there was abit of hoo haa, but once it was over, IT WAS OVER!!! YAY!!! :D Then exams... You could let a sigh of relief for me when you read those two words. Because, exams are way more easier to handle! (of course! it is your own exam and you are not affecting anyone else if you were to fail!) Actually of course I would be affecting myself and my family. (now suddenly I have this good thought which I didn't think of then!) Yeah, so exams went like exams as usual. Nothing much to say for this. End of topic.

Next is? Scrolls up, ah Internship!!! Wow I really had a different image on my mind when I thought of internship. Like am I going to lag behind, something like what if I didn't know how to use the printer, what if I spoilt something?

Then it began, and it was not that bad after all! Though my colleagues hated their job, I really enjoyed what I was doing!! (maybe it was the 'honeymoon' period as what some will say) But whatever it was I really was happy doing my job. It was like okay, maybe I feel this way cos... I'm abit old-fashioned... shhhh, keep it a secret!! I have a little mindset like those from my parents era. So I was like loving my job and was like working hard, because need to respect the superiors, the job, and do the job assigned diligently cos you are getting $$$ for what you are doing, so there should be enough value in it. I do not think that everyone in this era (<-- is this even the right word to describe? no right? haha I know, but it sounds so cool, but just go with the cool flow, and do not take it literally to be an era, okay?)

Yeah so I feel that many people are like talking or are even being like heck care attitude these days. These are all from what I heard and seen in TV and media, so if its not true, kudos to you that you belong to the same group as me!!! I even felt cool wearing all the cool office outwear (mine were not soo cool though, thanks to my mother, who does not buy me office outwear!!!) and being professional!!! I even thought if someone were to make a deal with me to exchange 3 years of my school life with 3 or 4 years of doing internship, I would graciously take the internship offer!!! I am not choosing it because I am getting $$$ which eventually goes to my mother, or into my bank account, you may be gasping at this moment but seriously I do not see the value in money though I know that it has a value and should not be treated lightly. Either I am still immature or this is just me. So I am choosing the second option because I enjoy what I do, yes people always say this, but what exactly? I enjoy the train journey to my work, where I can sit and sleep for about an hour, no sweating, no laptop to be carried, no walking long distances after every 2 hours, ah the simple pleasures of life!!!

I still think back of my company, my colleagues and all the small funny incidents! I even understood how hard it would be for my Father all these years. 9-5 job is nothing easy. There is like less time to 'play' during the day and during weekends it would be like 'yay no job today, I'm just going to spend it for myself!' something like that, but who else can't stand me being free? My mother, always asking me and Rini to do something once we come back home or during the weekends!!! So basically internship was like an awesome memory in my life!!! End of topic...

Results
Then in the midst of all the internship excitement came my results!!! I felt nothing about it when I saw it... Because, I don't know... I mean, okay let's just leave it as it is... I really hope to do well in my current semester!!! End of topic...

School!!!
After internship was over, I had mixed feelings, sad that it was over, and also happy because I had at least a 1 week break before my school... How I wished I could just go back to my office instead of my school!!! School is currently going fine! Definitely it is better than last semester, because I get to see many more of my classmates frequently, and hence I have alot in my mind, and hence if there are like depressing thoughts, it is much more easier to divert the focus... (I should be thinking about Allah, and hence life would not be stressful, but Inshaa'allah I will try to think of Him often!) End of topic...

Hari Raya Haji
This year it was different! Instead of at my granny's place, we had it at my uncle's home! I expected it to be more fun but it was the opposite because my cousins all arrived so late! But one thing that made me happy was my outfit!!! It was a trendy lace Baju Kurong!!! Mine was the orange version, while Rini's was grey, (we wanted blue instead of grey, but no more stock, and we were rushing) and so the top had the lace, while the skirt is all so flowy!!!! Flowy means, not like what you are thinking now, it was flowy to the MAX!!!! I realised its maxi flowiness when my mother had dried it on the bamboo pole, and the skirt dropped till the ground so imagine it as a 90 degree flowiness!!! Yeah so it was all so beautiful when we walked because when you walk, it just flows along!!! So pretty!! Then after lunch and meeting my cousins, we left. End of topic....

Oh my, I just realised how long this post was.. I will try to keep it short next time, Inshaa'allah!! Till then buh-bye everyone!!! :D
