Here it comes again

Salam to all

The cold n flu n cough season are back..so the adik has been 2 days at home recuperating...so officially yesterday was his 1st day being absent from school. Pity him .. a severe cough shaking your little body.

The abang on the other hand come home today chirping like a bird and telling me that he has something for me and adik.... a letter from school for ibu and tadaaa a very small truck toy for adik and a small car for himself. He said the teacher gave it to him as he has been very good at school and teacher gave him hadiah. mmmmm...im  abit skeptical about this but i dont want to have 'buruk sangka' on him..all ibu can do is to pray that you did not and will never ever steal from school or from your friends at school. Truth/ lie is still a mystery concept on him i guess. So ill be giving a watchful eye on this.

As fr me its my 4th day of shawal fast..inshaAllah ill finish it on the 29th of shawal..just in time...been very tired lately and when adik is sick, the lack of sleep makes this tiredness even worst.

And a quick note on the driving test yesterday...i failed again...huwaaaa.....but atleast i didnt feel cheated or zalim/unjustly treated...the police say im not good enough....and need practice and inshaAllah i will succeed next time...shwaiya shwaiya he said...im not sad though takpelah...there will be next time inshaAllah.

Driving lesson

Again tadi dapat idea untuk write my experience untuk belajar memandu kat Omanni. Its an experience yg tak best untuk diingati but why not..just as one of not good memories while we are here.

Kami sampai di bumi Oman ni in Nov 2009. And not long after that encik suami ada bagi ura2 untuk beli kereta so taht senang kami nak ke hulu n hilir as he presume he will be very busy always. So  of course  dia mula survey driving school and nak di pendekkan cerita i think in jan 2010 kami ada satu kereta second hand yg dia kata kena beli sebab we might not hv such car with such price. So kami dah ade kete for me to use tapi saya masih tak ade lesen. Sebab Encik suami and his PR officer is also very very busy and suddenly its summer break so he said the process for the licence will start aft that....so the PR who is an omani guy and me n the children went to the driving license dept and get our 'green book' buku utk belajar memandu and of course i opt for manual driving sebab kat msia saya pakai manual car..so konfident i can do it easily. but then one more thing yang terlepas pandang is since i already had a licence before i boleh exclude drum( parking) n slope test but kena dapat verification of my msia lesen from M'sian embassy. So i manage to get verification kat embassy and then of course then verification form ministry of foreign affair oman in which this PR will hv to do it as my husband say the govt dept here do not deal with foreigner unless you are accompanied by your local sponsor (a.k.a local ppl)

Nak di panjangkan cerita this PR guy keep my green book and things relatedf or the verification for soooolong that by the time come he told my husband he cant find my original msian driving lesen. Kalut jugak cos we are not sure sapa yg simpan the lesen..is it me or him...anway i email JPJ kat Msia n depa say boleh suruh keluarga saya tolong  buatkan on my behalf. So there it goes again..about 2-3 weeks for my new  lesen to arrive here. Saya cuak sebab of course i hv to start everything all over again sebab lesen dah pkai yg baru. so again pass the book to the PR guy and this time at least he manage to make it fast i hv all the necassary paper for me to start driving. At last!...but by this 6 month almost past...and one more surprise is that the green book expires in 2weeks time. So encik suami suruh saya cepat2 belaja sebelum buku itu expire....n ofcourse ada lagi satu masalah...sapa mau jaga itu anak kecil berumur 1 tahun 8 bulan?....akhirnya kami dapat  pertolongan from neighbour yg sudi jaga adik for 1 hour. So di satu hari yg cerah..saya start belajar memandu di negara oman ini using a left hand strering car. Cant really recall the experience tapi mmg confius byk as of mana my proper lane esp kat 2 way road n also junction.it went ok..and then bila cikgu belaja tanyer bila next session i say ill call sebab depends if neighbour sudi jaga anak saya. But the day never arrive as neighbour sokmo busy dengan hal sekolah anak2nya sendiri. Sabar je lah...n then green book expires n its already winter holidays n again kami bercuti and Encik suami kata lepas cuti he will look into the matter n this is already Jan 2011. Btw kereta yg encik suami beli  early in the year selalu bagi problem and sudah di jual balik pada nov-dec 2010. huhuhu..tak merasa langsung memandu keretatu.

Dipendekkan cerita lagi..only on the 31 jul 2011 i manage to get a proper driving lesson 1hr per day n 5 days in a week. So sofar ive took about 10  driving lesson and tadaa... on the 14th August yg lalu ive been allocated a slot for test and again tadaaa...i failed. I shall say its a failure yang tak masuk logik akal langsung and menyebabkan saya cannot really express my feeling at the time.......i was tricked by the officer in charge n not even 5 minutes after we left....he ask me to go back to the car park n say i need to learn more...i failed. Dalam hati saya say he is zalim...if he is not..then the system is zalim...anway whoever made the rule that 1st timer cannot pass at the 1st time...due to whatsoever reason ..they are being zalim. Anway..im all over it by now...I can only register again to have next  test in 2 weeks time. So untill then.....maybe ill not cont with the lesson as the Royal Omani Police (a.k.a JPJ) are not interested at all to know  if we know or competent in driving...they are just interested to know what we dont know. Pity Mr Husband as he hav to pay for this ..melayang duit dia dalam rm200 each test...not to the police but to the teacher...i just wonder what type of system is this.
