.....Just ventilating.....




I can't help but feel sick and tired of being stuck in this same old rut, day in and day out! I simply loathe this lifestyle of mine. I reckon other people, who're in the same age group as me, are better off living in their golden years.....doing the things they love to do, like travelling the world, far and wide, for instance. Their twilight years are adventurous, memorable and hold so much meaning for them.....unlike mine! As for me, I'm still slaving my way through life! Doing mundane household chores, that seem to be endless! It's really sad and pathetic! And being riddled with a host of health issues is definitely no help at all! Sigh!

.....In Loving Memory Of My Late Sibling, Roseana.....




Late Roseana was the second child of the nine Rahim Siblings. She was born in Johor Bahru on 21.11.1951. She had her early education at the Sultan Ibrahim Girls' School (Primary and Secondary) in Johor Bahru. Her tertiary education was obtained at Universiti Sains Malaysia, Minden, Pulau Pinang. She graduated with an Honours Degree in Bachelor of Humanities with Education. Ana, as she was lovingly known, had always loved to teach and her round of teaching duties took her to secondary schools in Pontian, KotaTinggi and Johor Bahru. Her last posting before retirement was at the Sekolah Menengah Taman Tun Aminah, in Sekudai, Johor Bahru.

Ana was a very dedicated teacher, well-loved by her students and colleagues alike. But then, it was very clear that Allah SWT loved her more. Hence, after a very short illness in September 2010, Ana breathed her last at the Ampang Hospital in Selangor, on September 21, 2010 at 7.45 pm. The cause of death was Acute Myeloid Leukaemia. Her remains were buried at Bukit Mahmoodiah Cemetery in Johor Bahru, on September 22, 2010.

Ana's been gone for six years now, but we, her six surviving siblings still love her very, very much and will forever cherish our fond memories of her. May Allah SWT shower His blessings upon late Ana, always.

AL FATIHAH.....AMEEN.....
