This love at the first sight happened on
21st November 2011.
Chose to be the mommy for Deck ratings, I
never love Engine ratings the less.
I bet Sir Afiq, the father for Engine
ratings, feels the same too. :)
Those Deck ratings had to face me 6 hours
each day.
I couldn't imagine, how difficult it was
for them.
As the one who stood in front, I could see
different moods and expressions.
Negative and positive ones, for sure.
But today I want to remember the good
ones.
I could see effort.
I could see perseverance.
I could see passion.
After a month, then only I stepped into
Engine ratings class.
Got to know them, learned with them.
All thanks to lovely Maizura!
Yesterday, 19th of May 2012, was their
graduation day.
A day to celebrate their own selves, their
efforts and success.
With that, Maizura and I had presented fresh red roses for our 90 seafarers.
We wrote a simple note for everyone.
We did everything, with love.
The red roses mean,
sayangku takkan layu!
I also had chosen another 10 fresh pink
roses to be given to
those who left significant marks in my
heart.
One is for Fuad, sahabat dunia akhirat.
One is for Jen, awak sentiasa buat saya rasa
selamat.
One is for Syafiq, my positive vibe.
One is for Fahmi, anak paling dekat dengan hati.
One is for Izzat, untuk jurnal yang jujur.
One for Fizi, you made me see a different
dimension of this life.
One for Man, the most responsible
man I ever met.
One is for Hafiz, I see a hero in him.
One is for Faiz, I owe you an apology.
One is for Basit, my very own kekasih hati.
I couldn't take many photos during the ceremony since we were FORCED to sit with the VIPs. You were not allowed to move around - what a silly protocol.
And last night, I didn't take photos too when I sent my kids at Melaka Central.
Yet, I have recorded memory of that night in my heart.
Thank you for the nasi ayam, karaOK session,
McFlurry Oreo, the handshakes and tears :')
