2022: July, hello quarter 3

Assalamuaikum & Hi,

Let's write about July, although it's already September today! Time flew so fast & it's now already quarter 3, after than we only have 1 more quarter before 2023 😱

The month started with work of course, we had monthly meeting & then work as usual. Weekend was always the highlight. That weekend I stayed home reading & watching Netflix. I plan to do nothing & then Huda texted me on Sunday she was around my place. So we went out to eat Nippon Sushi & had some chit chat. I told her I was looking for a sejadah so we looked for one after that. I bought the Siti Khadijah's one & it was actually the best one I tried so far.

The following week, I went back to my hometown earlier for Hari Raya. During my time there, I watched Mat Kilau with my father, brother & brother's friend. I  didn't really like the storyline though. The next day, we prepared for AidilAdha; went to the market with my parents to buy all the ingredient to make Raya dishes. Also I tried Starbucks together for the first time with my siblings at the nearest outlet in our neighbourhood area on Raya night.

On the day of AidilAdha, we performed prayer together at Masjid UUM. Then we strolled around before we ended up going to Starbucks again to try the viral croissant. My uncle came on the 2nd raya & I also went back to Selangor the same night.

On 2nd week, work was great, work was not a problem this month, I was just adjusting to the new things only. That weekend, I went to Tuwa's house before she moved to Penang. We went to her friend's reception & hangout at a nice cafe.

3rd week was the bestt because the whole Telesales team went to 2nd National Sales Meeting for this year! It was done at Weil Hotel, Ipoh, Perak & I loveeddd that hotel. The room was niceee especially the bathtub. But the food wasn't great. We had dinner with the team at Seoul Garden. The next morning was full of meeting & training which was great too. We had dinner with the whole sales team on our last night at the hotel. Then, the following day we had half day meeting before going back. I went to Taiping with Syida to take the train to Kedah. I lovedd Taiping, it was busy, but calm & have many nice places. I took the KTM Utara to Bukit Mertajam, & switch there to go to Arau. Of course it was cheaper than ETS, but there were definitely a lot of people.

Had breakfast with the whole family on Saturday, then went out complete everything on Madihah's list before she went to matriculation. I went back to Selangor on the following day. 

On the final week of July, the company organised corporate culture day so everyone was invited to go. Of course I was excited about that because it means going out from the office & eating good food. After the event, we went back to the office to complete our call list. I also exercised after a long time & my body felt so much better. That weekend I have to work because I still didn't complete my call list. However in between calls, I went out with Nasuha to watch Cinta Subuh - it was greattt because it's the genre I favour. Nasuha had her first Dubuyo & she loved it very much!

I realized in June & July I watched a lot of dramas & read few books too. I thought I was so unproductive but I wasn't. At times I felt lonely & tired so I thought I didn't do anything at all; but I did a lot actually. But I realized I need to learn to take care of my health more; especially physically.

July is the fastest month ever, until I wished for time will slow down a bit for me to properly breathe. Had lot to catch up, sometimes I feel a bit suffocating & wanting to run away. Nevertheless, life is not like that, as life is about solving problems & coping with whatever challenges that came.

- let's catch up in the next post!

Till then,

Adlina.
