.....The New Normal, Pictorially Speaking.....

 

Since Saturday, 18.3.2020 we, in Malaysia, have been practically coerced to live our lives along the lines of the 'New Normal'. This came about after the global outbreak of the dreaded pandemic, the Coronavirus, dubbed 'Covid 19'. We've had to adhere to specific rules and regulations, so as to save ourselves from the scary after effects of the scourge. We have to abide to Movement Control Order. We have to practise the strictest of hygiene rituals, we have to practise social distancing and to NOT be involved in any group activities. There'll be no more handshakes and hugs, believe it or not! These are really the salient new things for us to get used to.

 

Below is roughly a pictorial account of the Pandemic in question.....
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

It is the prayer of everyone in the world, that we will soon be free from the shackles that have been brought upon us by this horrible pandemic. Countless lives have been lost, worldwide. We pray that the world has been thoroughly cleansed of all the 'sins' that have been done by mankind, since time immemorial,  like destroying the natural environment with the choking pollution  etc, etc, and that we can all move on with our lives and live happily in a cleaner, healthier and more cheerful environment.

 

INSYAALLAH. GOD WILLING. AMIN.

Since Wednesday, 18.3.2020,

life has changed for us in Malaysia. Since that fateful day, we had to abide to the MCO/PKP ruling, no thanks to the dreaded Corona Virus, dubbed Covid 19.

It definitely is no joke having to stay home, in order to stay safe. Although, I'm so used to being a homebody, this order is definitely a very tall one for me...what more for others who relish their freedom, to go out and do the things they love. The MOC/PKP is as follows-

18.3.30 -31.3.20 - phase 1

1.4.20 - 14.4.20 - phase 2

15.4.20 - 28.4.20 - phase 3

 

This Covid 19 pandemic is a global problem. It certainly has brought all of us to a 'new normal', where we have to make life changes and adhere to strict rulings and regulations. we have to practise strict personal hygiene, wash our hands often with soap and water, do social distancing and are prohibited from organising and attending social gatherings of any kind. For most of us, making these changes won't be easy. But do them, WE MUST! As for me, although I feel that I'm facing a blind alley now, I'm really looking forward to the moment when the restrictions are finally lifted and we can all move on with our 'new normal' lives. AMIN! 

.....Kind Hearts.....

 

  

 



*Kind hearts are the garden,

Kind thoughts are the roots,

Kind words are the flowers,

Kind deeds are the fruits,

Take care of your garden

And keep out the weeds,

Fill it with sunshine,

Kind words and Kind deeds.*

 

-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow-

.....The Global Scourge Hits Malaysian Shores.....

Feeling sad...

 

In late February 2020, the global scourge, dubbed Covid19 hit Malaysian shores really hard. Now, the whole nation is facing it straight in its face and trying its level best to tackle the gigantic problem in the best way possible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stay safe everyone, and do the needful, as directed by the authorities! Together, we will overcome this! InsyaAllah, Amin.

 

 



.....Looking Back To Fifty-Five Years Ago.....

 

Ever since my school days, I'd always loved sewing. Reckon I'd picked up the interest from my late Mom, who was a very good seamstress. She used to singlehandedly sew lovely dresses for all her eight daughters. As for me, I opted to do Needlework as one of the subjects that I sat for in the LCE/SRP Examinations, way back in 1965. The 'masterpieces' I churned out were two cute little smocking frocks, of pretty pink and soothing green hue.

 

 

Pretty Pink

 





Soothing green

 

My Needlework teacher was Mrs Molly Hussein and she got orders for me to sew several smocking frocks for her fellow teachers' little daughters. I recall sewing for Mrs Yolanda Parry's and Mrs Sudhakaran's daughters, respectively.

 

For my SPM/MCE Examination, I sewed a two-piece outfit, namely a fitting light blue skirt and a sleeveless white blouse with pretty embroidered flowers on them.
