I'm Back!!

It been quite sometimes i last write in. I'm done with chemotheraphy and radiotherapy. I pray to Allah to give me strenght and free from cancer after all those treatments that i've gone through but got to take Tamixifen for 5 years, InsyaAllah i'll be free! My little mermaid got married on 12 February even though i'm still on chemo. But Alhamdulillah, Allah gave me strength to go through in order to celebrate this joyful and historical event of my life and my daughter's life held Al-Falah mosque. Not a grand event but meaningful solemnization with closed family and friends. May Allah bless the newly weds all the happiness, Amin! Went to Hiroshima to visit my son-in-law's family in Fukugawa on 2 June till 19 June and at the same time holiday in Kyoto. I'm back to work at Eunos but under different environment :( Anyway, waiting patiently for D day to come. May Allah fullfill my wishes. Sold my late father's house, what left now are memories of the past years. May his soul in peace and may Allah blessed him with love, Amin.

On August 4, 1945, during World War II, an American bomber dropped the world's first deployed atomic bomb over the Japanese city of Hiroshima.  The explosion wiped out 90 percent of the city and immediately killed 80,000 people.  This is one of the remain building.
At Oba-chan's house in the garden
I endured the glaring sun and heat just to look for the Statue of Fumiko Hayashi.  She is a novelist whose realistic stories deal with urban working-class life.
Miyajima is most famous for its giant torii gate, which at high tide seems to float on top of the water.
The famous Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto.  The huge shinto shrine has about ten thousands of vermillion Torii gateways and a lot of small shrines and stone monuments in its precinct make the atmosphyere of the big shinto shrine quite unique and interesting.
