25th of December 2010 was a day to remember, not because it was Christmas but because it was a big day for the family. It was the day when A Samad was engaged to Norhafiza binti Shaari. The occasion took place at 11.00 am at the residence of Datuk Shaari Bin Ismail and Datin Fatimah in Taman Harmonis, Gombak.
5 days earlier, A Hadi arrived at KLIA from Munich on the 20th to spend about ten days in Malaysia before going back to Germany on the 31st of December 2010 at 2.40am.
The family gathered at a homestay, an apartment at Taman Sri Ayu in Setiawangsa for 2 days. Nurul, Diqi and Lutfi arrived on the 24th of December together with Nabihah who had gone to Perak earlier. AJIkram, Ummu and Syarha arrived at about 12. 30 pm and went straight to the Sri Ayu apartment.
The situation before the engagement was hectic with so many things to prepare but it was a happy and joyous occasion. An and wife, Yana; Jorah, Norsaiah arrived at about 2.00 am on the 25th.
On the auspicious day, the 25th of December, we started off from Sri Ayu apartment at 10.00 a.m and gathered at the side of the road near to the surau and SK Setiawangsa to wait for the group from the Mahsuri apartment, Awa, Aja, Amat, Asiah and their family. The engagement entourage for A Samad went in seven cars to Taman Harmonis.

The Gathering
Come February 2010, all members of the family and the new add-ins met during the Chinese New Year holidays. Ajikram, Ummu and Syarha; Ahadi, Cyntha and Satriani; and Nurul, Tasdiqi and Ahmad Lotfil Hadi and the rest of the family; including Hawa and Hajar were in Bandar Tenggara. It was the first time everybody was to meet Satriani.
After the Chinese New Year holidays, everbody went back except Ahadi, Cyntha and Satriani who were on holidays for 3 weeks from the 4th of February before going back to Germany on the 26th of February.
On the 19th of February, I received a bad news from Nurul that her son, Ahmad Lotfil Hadi, broke his thighbone in a fall with his Perak grandma and sent to the Batu Gajah hospital before being admitted to the Ipoh General Hospital for observation and treatment.
On the 25th of February, the family went to KL to sent Ahadi off the next day. We put up the night in Cheras and at 10pm set off to KLIA. At 2am on the 26th February, Ahadi, Cyntha and Satriani flew back to Germany. The next day, after breakfast in Setiawangsa, we went off to Batu Gajah, Perak. We reached Batu Gajah at about 1pm and went straight to Nurul's house as we were informed that Ahmad Lotfi was discharged from the Ipoh GH that day.
It seemed that Ahmad Lotfi is ok in the cast. After spending for about 3 hours, we prepared to head back to KL but the car would not start. After calling the mechanic and spending RM280.00 for a fuel pump, we went to our in-laws house. By the time we reached there, it was raining heavily. Excusing ourselves after half an hour, we set back to KL in the rain. By that time it was already 6.30 pm. We reached KL safely at about 9pm and soon I fell soundly asleep.
On the 27th, we went back to Bandar Tenggara at 11am and reached BT at about 3.30pm. Soon, Ajikram, Ummu and Syarha came. Ajikram came after attending Cikgu Maisara's daughter's wedding and also to get the food prepared by Cikgu Budin for his in-laws's tahlil.
The next day we sent ASamad to get on the bus to KL at Skudai and later had a lunch date with Ajikram, Ummu and Syarha at Plaza Larkin. Then , we went straight home to BT after a hectic and tiring and exciting weekend. The house is now very, very quiet after the Gathering. I missed them all!
