Mereka di Afrika Selatan ini juga sangat penyayang dan caring. Rata rata yang saya jumpa kebanyakannya peramah dan sopan. Mereka sangat mengambil berat tentang keadaan kenalan mereka. Tempoh hari saya tiba di sekolah George dalam keadaan mata merah dan berair. Teacher Anna iaitu pembantu guru di sekolah George cepat menegur "mama Muaz, are you ok?" Saya cuma mengangguk dan mempercepatkan langkah saya, saya enggan menjawab, takut airmata tumpah lebih laju. Kejadian itu disedari Teacher Mitchelle yang kemudiannya berlari ke arah saya dan memeluk saya tanpa berkata apa apa. Selepas sedu saya reda, beliau membawa saya ke kerusi untuk saya duduk dan membawa segelas air. Kata beliau "I am sorry, I cant allow you to bring your son back home and drive when are you still crying. I know you are being strong. I know you dont want to tell people that you are tired or sad, because many will comment that you are very lucky for do not have to work. But I know you are just a normal

Dah seminggu George demam. Sejujurnya I rasa sangat penat. Penat yang keterlaluan. George ni jenis yg manja amat, sikit sikit merengek. Malam ke siang ke dia sentiasa merengek kalau dia tak dapat tidur nyenyak. Mungkin badan dia sakit, tak baik kan I, anak merengek pun I mengeluh penat. Punca dia demam lebih teruk kerana bodynya tak dpt terima antibiotic yang di berikan pertama kali. Bila dah habis dose nya demam George lebih teruk, mendadak naik sehingga 40.8.

I berangan besok dah boleh hantar George ke sekolah, dah berfikir fikir nak pergi class di Gym dan selepas tu ke Ikebana class yang dua minggu cancel kerana instructor tak sihat. Nampak gaya besok duduk rumah lagi la dgn George. Semalam D decided nak pergi tidur bermalam di hotel tepi dam, 20km je dari rumah. Nak beri George hidup udara segar katanya. Aduh... I bukan tak suka tidur hotel, tapi dlm kead

Many things happened lately. some good, some not so good. I was drowned with sadness for the past couple of weeks when someone told me that one lady said bad things about me. I cant reveal the details, but somehow her remarks was really affected my emotions. I shared about it with D, D macam biasa asked me to totally block the person from my life. but I am not like that, and can never be like that. I know, after a while lepas emosi dah stabil I akan still bercakap dan layan the said person seperti biasa. D said itu tindakan kurang bijak atau bodoh... ehm speaking about bodoh, to me, we can always be humbled but never stupid. True enough, after few days, I just all fine. living and kicking. I start enjoying my life back, besides all of the normal routines of preparing meal  and bento for my family, settling the laundry and sending/fetching George from school, I also hit the gym every morning. I goes to Ikebana class once a week. I make an effort to meet at least one friend for morni
