I am super sad after receiving the news today: two of my dearest colleagues will be leaving. I am sp affected by the news, because I genuinely want the best for them, and also because I could be one of them.

But, as Ustadz Ebit Lew said, Allah knows best. There's beauty behind every failure, a sunshine after the rain, hikmah di sebalik kejadian. All you have to do is believe and pray correctly, and make it your weapon.

I will be starting work soon. Like this coming Monday soon. Yes, my world is cruel. I can't fight the system, not yet. But please remind me, when I have the power, I will try to change the system.

For now, I will succumb into a temporary depression, and hopefully, my daughter won't be compromised by all this.

(That reminds me that I only have a day's worth of breastmilk for now. I will standby with formula milk. Does that make me a terrible, selfish mother? We, women are always hard on each other. Please take a step back, and evaluate that we each lead different lives, and not all are meant to be ideal like what you believe. Our journeys are different and individualised. May Allah ease my struggles)

But.... it is not even a month yet? Surely that is also illegal??

I mean about getting call to get back to work soon... and don't give yourself a hard time re breast milk vs formula. I believe most mothers knows best what to give for our child.

True story! Kena kerja dah...hopefully i get to do light work, and hopefully my bosses would close an eye if i work less hours...i could apply for unpaid leave, but that would mean deferring a whole semester (akibat jadi student sambil bekerja). The semester will end end of may. Until then, im still contemplating whats the next step im going to take
