It's been a while since the last time I wrote a post. I even couldn't remember when was the last time. Haha. Almost a year. I guess blogging is not an in thing anymore. Huhu.
Sooo many things happening in my life. Good things, bad things.
One of those is, I finally got a job in government. Took me long enough though. Aku tak ingat pun bila aku isi SPP but I went for an interview around August last year. On December I got the letter but I was a 'calon simpanan'. I thought, lantaklah. Aku tak berharap sangat.
But, luck is on my side. On mid April, I got a letter and it said I am accepted! I have to report duty by the end of April. I was so scared if my posting place is outside Perak. But I am under Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia and Bahagian Pengambilan Bukan Guru so they post new employees based on locality, means, they post us to our own states but various districts. Kat situ dah lega dah.
I have to report duty again at Pejabat Pendidikan Daerah and during that time baru tahu kena campak sekolah kat district mana. I was posted in Teluk Intan, in Hilir Perak district. To be exact, I was posted in SK Tapak Semenang, Kampung Tapak Semenang. Yes, kampung. In palm estate. Sighhh.
So, my aunty who is a headmistress at SK Gopeng called SK Tapak Semenang's headmaster to ask the location of the school. The headmaster said the school is indeed in the kampung and it took about 30 minutes to reach the city. So he said, macam mana pun I have to own my own transport preferably a car because it's kinda dangerous. Jalan sunyi pagi-pagi. Crap, aku mana ada kereta. Then Mak cakap, okay, let's buy a car. Sebab terpaksa. In the process of buying my car, I asked for the postponing of my report duty at the school. Headmaster granted.
After almost 2 weeks, I got my own car and I started my job on May, 21st. But I still have a trouble in finding room for rent. It takes 1 hour and 30 minutes from my house in Ipoh to reach the school. I don't mind really to going back and forth from Ipoh to Teluk Intan. In fact, I've been doing it for 2 weeks. Kerja start pukul 7AM and by 5.30AM aku dah keluar rumah. For me, that's normal but for others, ramai yang cakap jauhlah, itulah, inilah.
My bos helped me to find a rent room and I finally got it. It's really near by my workplace. Only 10 minutes away. But at that time I was like, nak buat bilik sewa tu macam persinggahan je. Kalau tak larat nak balik Ipoh baru duduk situ. And I've been planning to stay at bilik sewa after raya. I thought, sedih gila bulan puasa tak sekali dengan Mak.
But not until I was involved in an accident. I was so devastated. Masa tu, kereta baru tak sampai pun 2 minggu. I hit the car in front of me only because he was on the emergency break and his tail light is not functioning. That's why he refused to make a police report I guess. My car have to go to the service center for about a month. Pening kepala, macam mana nak pegi kerja? I took a week leave to figure things out. Mak said, we have no choice other than rent a car. For a month. For a freaking month. At that time, dalam kepala aku cuma fikir mana pulak nak carik duit ni? My saving is not that much after I spent it on the pre-GST sale during my KL vacation with Fatin back in April. I bought Chanel cosmetics and stuff. Damn. If only I knew I needed money. Sighhh. Makanya, saving sangat penting. We don't know what the future holds. I'm lucky my Mak wants to help me.
Mak said, I have to stay at bilik sewa from that moment on. Dia risau lepas aku accident tu. Dalam hati aku sangat risau dan sedih. Though Along is at home tapi kadang-kadang kalau Along keluar malam dia kena tinggal sorang. Hmm. Aku gagahkan jugak because I don't wanna make my Mak worried because of me. I started staying at bilik sewa in the week of Ramadhan starting. Imagine how sad I was? Freaking sad! I only go back to Ipoh on Friday. Hence, I always find reasons to leave early from work so I can spend more time at home.
Kereta aku siap tepat-tepat sebulan lepas accident. Aku dah risau dah masa tu sebab takut have to extend sewa kereta. Takut sebab takut menyusahkan Mak lagi. I couldn't take her money from her savings anymore. Tak sampai hati. Banyak dah menyusahkan Mak.
Well, that's the bad part in the good part.
I was tested. Tapi, Allah cakap dia tak duga orang tu kalau dia rasa orang tu tak mampu nak pikul dugaan tu right? I believe in Him.
So now, I kinda used to stay in Teluk Intan. Or I force myself to get used to it. I like to believe that it takes only a split second to complete the week. Masa tu kejap je. On Monday pegi kerja gerak dari rumah. Friday dah balik Ipoh so I have to spend only 3 and a half days in Teluk Intan. I'm holding to that now. Until retirement. Sighh.
My workplace. I love it. Though it's in kampung but I love it. My bosses and colleagues are good to me. I didn't intend to transfer workplace. Maybe someday. Because I intend to stay with my Mak back so I can look after her. InsyaAllah.
I am happy. I think. But not as happy as I was before. But I am still happy. Allah finally granted some of my doas. Alhamdulillah.
Till then, toodles!


What's happening... So far.
