Replacement

I should be in bed right now. Been sleeping pretty late for the past few nights, working OT for my presentation. But instead, here I am doing OT again. I am not free in the day, so most of my work will be done only at night.

Tomorrow, marks the day to determine whether I'll graduate from poly next month. My last ever presentation in Ngee Ann Polytechnic. My heart has been racing since just now, thinking about how I'm going to face the invigilators. Scary.....But hopefully I do well....

Today, I achieved something. Not academically but more towards my capabilities. I rewang at my nephew's circumsition ceremony for 2 whole days and today, I took over Mama's place in the kitchen. And for the first time in my whole life, I cooked nasi minyak in a LARGE scale. Ya...I am proud of myself. Had my training at home with Mama during weekends and I always made silly mistakes and Mama nagged at me dozens of times for the mistakes I'd made. Learnt from my mistakes and I've found part of my capabilities....

I've been thinking....these few months, my life has been good. Allah has been good to me. Alhamdulillah....but I know that life is not always good cause Allah will always give me dozens and dozens of challenges in the near future. Like Ustazah said, the older I get, the more challenges I've gotta overcome.

I know I worked hard, especially academically, to get where I am today. But I wonder...is everything I have now, the ~~replacement~~ rewards of all my loss and sacrifices?
