The first 5 years of our marriage

Salam

The early years of marriage can be rocky terrain, but they also provide the chance to build a strong foundation for marriage in the years ahead. The long-term success of a marriage depends heavily on how well spouses make the adjustment during the first five years.


Hubby and I have reached the first phase of our marriage i.e. our 5 years wedding anniversaries on last Thursday (22/08/2008 - 22/08/2013). 


We didn't plan any sort of celebration as we were both busy with tight schedule but we decided to have a dine out at Sushi King to reminisce the good old day of our 4 years stay in Japan. In fact, our previous wedding anniversaries were celebrated in Japan. *refer :  1st wedding annivesary at RoboSquare, Celebrating 2nd Wedding Anniversary on a Cruise Ship3rd Wedding Anniversary Celebration and (WW 33) : 4th Anniversary Gift*.

We didn't even prepare any gift to exchange for our 5th wedding anniversaries but I'm pretty sure both of us feels really thankful to reach our first 5 years of our marriage and to be able to face the most challenging 5 years of living together despite all the differences in us.

Here are some of the most 5 memorable challenges that we faced in our first 5 years of marriage :-

(1) My mom passed away 2 months before my wedding date
The first challenge that we faced as a couple begin with my emotional condition when my mom passed away on 24th June 2008 while we were supposed to get married on 22nd August 2008. At first I don't want to proceed my wedding on the planned date, I wanted to postponed the wedding but my close family persuaded me to proceed as this is what my late mom want to see if she is still alive. In fact, she has settle done with 95% of the wedding preparation as if she knew that she'll be leaving us. *refer :  Setahun sudah berlaluMemoirs of Ma : LHR airport,Memoirs of Ma: Quotes of my familyFriday the 13th dan Mother's Day??

Alhamdulillah the wedding went on as planned although I was not in my best condition at that time. A part of me was still grieving about the loss of my mom and there's also a part of me that was delighted to be able to finally get married to my dream guy.


(2) Living far away with hubby after a month of marriage
We had to live a Long Distance Relationship life after only a month of our marriage when hubby went to Kyushu, Japan for his PhD and I had to stay in Malaysia as I was in the earliest stage of pregnancy. We survived the 2 months living away with each other by having video conference every single night.  Even when he's sleeping, he still needs to make sure that the web cam is connected so that I'd be able to see him in that tiny laptop screen. (-_-'') *refer: S.E.P.I~Pregnancy and me (part 3) : 3rd month~




(3) Living in a single apartment room
I had to live secretly in hubby's single dormitory room for almost 4 months before we moved to a couple's apartment later.  Despite having only single bed, we managed to sleep comfortably on it (together with my expanding pregnant belly). In this small room, we learn how to live together as a married couple for the first time, at a land far far away from our family. It teaches us to live life accordingly and accept the things that happens around us positively in order to stay happy. *refer : Sayounara Dormitory ITO

(4) Learn to live under a tight-budget life
In our first year of marriage, hubby is a PhD student that rely solely on JICA's scholarship which didn't includes extra allocation for family allowance. When I decided to pursue my PhD, we shared hubby's scholarship and we also do extra work (baito) as research assistant to make end meets. There were times when we had to borrow some amount of money with our friends if the scholarship and our baito-salary were delayed; in order for us to be able to pay Abg SN's nursery fee. *refer : Mommy & Baby SN goes to school

We strive hard and applied all sort of scholarships offered and finally we succeed to get the UTH.M's scholarship that also offers family allowance. But the journey of getting the scholarship and the memories of sleeping at McDonald after the interview session will be the greatest memory for us. This had taught us on how to survive when unexpected things occurs and appreciate it as an important experience in life.*refer : Of interview thingy


(5) Survive the demanding life as PhD couples in a foreign country
PhD studies itself is not an easy job, and to make thing worst is that both of us were a PhD student at an interval of about a year gap. We had to focus on our study and at the same time we had to take care of our first son in a foreign country where we wont be able to get help from our family members. 

We learned how to manage our time as a student and as a parent, we learned how to be able to study and at the same time giving our child the attention that he needed in his early years in life and we also had to live another LDR life when hubby finish his PhD first. But Alhamdulillah, in the end we both succeeded to get our PhD and also we were blessed with our 2nd son while I was about to finish my PhD. *refer: , Back for good - Malaysia, This I promise youGraduation ceremony in JapanAlhamdulillah..it's over :)

Phewww, looking back at the time when I had to carry Abg SN on the train everyday with me and when I had to travel with train+bicycle when I'm pregnant with SN jr ....I never thought that I'd be able to survive it without hubby's help. And for that I'm thankful to have him as my husband. *refer : Mommy & Baby SN goes to schoolPagi yang GELAP ~entry separa emo~,2 budak chomeyl di tinggal oleh si lelaki kesayanganNew routine as a Newspaper delivery man, Train rider, 



"Dear hubby, for our 5th wedding anniversaries, I don't ask for any gift. All I ask from you is to be able to live happily with you Side by side - Year by year for the rest of our live. Insya Allah...Ameen".



“Our anniversary is a time to look back at the good times and a time to look ahead to live our dreams together.”

Aidilfitri 2013 untuk Keluarga SN


Salam


Rasanya tak lambat mana lagi nak update cerita aidilfitri 2013 *walaupun dah 19 Syawal,apa ada hal; raya kan sebulan eheh*. Biasalah, bila dah update gambar2 raya kat FB dgn Instagram, the urge to upate kat blog kurang sikit la. Jadi marilah merajinkan diri kumpulkan cerita raya dalam satu entry saje kot hehe.

Tahun ni raya pertama giliran kat kg I di Tumpat, so solat sunat kat masjid kat kampung I. Memang ramai muka2 yang tak kenal, kalau kenal pun yang orang2 tua la, yang muda2 harammm tak kenal lansung. Lepas solat, gerak kek kubur arwah Ma + Ayoh + Mek + Mok Teh + Mok Besar.

+- duduk belakang2 dalam masjid sebab sedar diri bawak baby2 -+

Lepas tu macam biasa, salam bermaafan dan hulur duit raya kat sepupu2 dan anak2 saudara. Paling penting ialah sesi bergambar lepas perut kenyang di sumbat dengan menu nasi palestin + roti jala + kuzi ayam + satay + nasi impit + kuah kacang + kek. So excuse the buncitness yang terserlah di dalam gambar eheh.

+- anak cucu cicit Arwah Hj Md Said -+

+- anak cucu Hj Rosly & Arwah Hjh Sa'adah -+

If you noticed baju mommy tak sedondon sangat dengan daddy & anak2 , cuma shawl je yang sedondon. Reason is mommy memang saje nak menyerlah dari hero2 mommy tu, tak de lah nampak sangat beli kain sekayu buat baju sefamily ahahaha *padahalnya, memang dah sediakan baju peplum kaler sedondon tapi design x vogue sangat maka mak incik tak nak pakai ngeh3x*.

Baju daddy & anak2 beli di Nilai 3, material kain best dan sejuk so budak2 boleh pakai dari pagi ke petang tak payah tukar baju. 


Petang raya pertama dah balik umah PIL sebab nak masak2 untuk open house eosknya. Masak kuzi ayam sikit malam tu lepastu tertidur, so MIL la sambung masak. Apa punya menantu daaaa hahaha. Pagi2 raya kedua tu sambung masak spagheti + puding trifle. Cik Amah pulak masak soto + cupcakes + rainbow cake tapi sedihnya weh....tak ambik gamba rmenu yang masak penat2 tu sebab hubby sibuk layan tetamu.

+- sekeping ni je gambar mak incik melayan tetamu -+

Lepas je solat jumaat, tetamu serbu rumah. Dah elok2 mak incik pakai baju lawa2 kena masak untuk 2nd round spaghetti. Nasib baik tak comot baju raya kena minyak kalau idok, nangis tak berlagu la mak incik...baju JM tu kotttttt.


Ramai la jugak tetamu yang datang, memang tak putus-putus especially dari pukul 2-4 ptg. Family I pun datang jugak kat rumah PIL untuk beraya. Maka marilah sambung photoshoot raya kat rumah mak mertua pulak.

+- sorry kak nur, mata u terpejam pulok dlm gambar ni eheh -+

Yang lawaknya gambar raya dengan family in laws tak sempat nak shooting lawa2 raya ke2 tu sebab semua sibuk layan tetamu dan jugak bila malam semua dah keletihan. Lagipun dah tukar baju masa mandi nak solat Maghrib, so sesi photoshoot kat rumah PIL postpone ke pagi raya ke3. Apa ada hal, baju raya mak incik kan 5-6 pasang...tak kisah lah muahahaha.

+- tok umi dan 5 cucu2nya. bakal bertambah 2org lagi dalam masa terdekat ni -+

+- anak menantu cucu Adnan & Umi -+

+- meggedik pose giyomi dengan adik2 ipar -+


Lepas tu anak menantu bergerak memenuhi jemputan open house kat tempat lain2. Family SN ke rumah bapak saudara, tok saudara dan mak sepupu di Pasir Mas. Lepas tu kitorang balik semula kat rumah family I kat Tumpat dan sambung lagi acara posing. memang itulah acara wajib masa raya kot, selain dari makan2 marilah kita posing posing dan posing semata-mata ngeeeee.

+- sisters -+

+- tahun depan mungkin dah tak muat kerusi -+

Paling best sepanjang kat kampung hari tu ialah SN Jr tak bergayut kat mommy & daddy sangat sebab ada ramai inang pengasuh yang sudi dukung si 'koala' tu sepanjang masa. Bila lapar je baru dia nangis cari mommy, maka dapat lah mommy rilek sikit sepanjang kat kampung hari tu. Legaaa.

+- happy nya adik -+

+- tak kisah pun siapa2 dukung, janji di dukung 24jam -+


Pagi2 raya ke-4 jenguk tok2 saudara di kampung2 kat Pasir Mas lepas tu sambutan raya di Qelate di akhiri dengan kunjungan rasmi ke Pengkalan Kubur. Konon2nya nak beli bekas cantik2 untuk isi kuih dan makanan nak buat open house kat Batu Pahat nanti konon-kononnya lah; kita tengok lah ye jadi ke idok open house nya ngeee.

Begitulah seadanya cerita raya 2013 di rangkumkan dalam satu entry saje. Entry di akhiri dengan wajah2 chomeyl Abg SN dan SN jr bersama sepupu yang jadi geng kamceng diorang tiap2 kali berkumpul.

 
+- SN jr & Raif -+

+- Abg SN & Aiman -+

+- Abg SN & Zharif -+


Psssttt : Maaf la kalau lenguh jari nak scroll sampai habis entry, ni nak siapkan entry ni pun makan masa berhari-hari huhuhuhu.
