Helllooo MRSM Transkrian! ;)

When I first found out Izzat was offered to MRSM Transkrian (2nd intake), my first reaction was... Where on earth is that??? An officemate quickly suggested me to google and yeah.... Baru la ku tahu... Di Nibong Tebal, Pulau Pinang rupanya. Next, I googled the distance of that place from my home... Google Map answered my curiosity... It's about 2 hours and 45mins. Hmmm... Not so bad lah. I was pretty sure Izzat would be excited with this offer but the question is... Would he mind the distance? Coz mama and ayah could not afford to visit him often... Well, not as often as mama go to Bandar Enstek la kan.. Huhu... Jauh tu Izzat...

So when I showed him the offer letter,his  first reaction was 'Ma?? Camana boleh dapat?? Mama guna orang dalam ke?' Pffffttttt... Yeah right! Memang pun... Mama's orang dalam' is Allah swt jer :P Mama doa yang terbaik utk Izzat... So insyaAllah, ini lah yg terbaik. He was so excited, alhamdulillah... Tuan badan dah setuju... Mama and ayah tawakal jer...

Preparation was express... Only one week to be exact! And Mr Hubby is away in Germany (I smsed him the good news and he was excited as well!)... Mama dgn Izzat jer la yg prepare everything. Lagi excited when we found out my nephew, Adi Danial who was studying in SBPi Rawang was also offered to MRSM Kuala Kubu... Wan Rabtah la paling excited... Dua cucu ditawarkan ke MRSM!

So yesterday, 5th of March 2014, was Izzat's registration and 1st day in MRSM Transkrian :)

The registration was brief.. About 23 students as 2nd intake - 3 forth formers and the rest are 1st formers.

 

Shopping at maktab's coop.. Beli baju batik, tshirt outing, cadar, selimut, tie and car stickers... With the help of Adib, a forth former senior... What a nice chap!

Next, to his home room...

Asrama putera building

I like the idea of MRSM homeroom... Macam homey sket bunyi compared to  the sound of typical 'dorm' :D There are 4 beds in each room. And a few of them will be sharing a 'homeroom teacher' that would be their 'mentor' cum father-figure at the maktab. And I was quite impressed on how clean their homeroom was! The building may be old... but it's clean... alhamdulillah..

Izzat learning to do the bed the 'maktab way' in his room.

Mama tolong susun locker. The locker is a bit different from TKC's locker in design. Tak ada laci pun... But never mind... at least the lockers are all new... Alhamdulillah ;))

Cozy room... Mama approved!! ;))

View from his room... 

The toilet... Clean, alhamdulillah ;) Ada washing machine... Yeehaa... Lega mama tenguk!

Daddy's not-so-little boy ;))

Next, a brief taklimat by the pengetua, counsellor and head of warden on the rules of the maktab...

The pengetua - En Ismail Deraman. Used to be MRSM Tun Ghaffar Baba, Jasin Timbalan Pengetua. Was told by Adib, the boy who helped us with Izzat's registration that he is a good pengetua... selalu turun padang (his exact word!). Was also told by Johan (my nephew who was at MRSM TGB a few years back), berkaliber orangnya En Ismail ni... Good to hear that! 

Izzat baca ikrar... Ayah selfie boleh? LoL! :D

During the taklimat we were told that the kids would be wearing 'baju eksekutif' on every Tuesday... and 'eksekutif' meaning baju orang pegi opis :D  Jenuh le pulak kami meronda pekan Parit Buntar (yes, that's the nearest town) nak cari baju 'eksekutif' for Izzat. Tak jumpa his saiz okay... Izzat kan comel jer saiz nya.. Huhu. Finally jumpa la satu yg 'boleh la diterima' saiz nya. Izzat doesn't like pit sbb lengan nya a bit long on him... But that's the best we could find on this short notice. We also went to Maybank Parit Buntar to make an ATM card for his Yippie Account - menyesal tak buat awal2 :(( 

Well, left him there in MRSM Transkrian, Nibong Tebal at around 4pm. Study smart Izzat. Mama will definitely miss her one and only son... Bongsu lak tu.. Hukss!!!  :'(( May Allah protect him always. Mama akan terus doakan yg terbaik utk Izzat ya ❤

P/S - x de dah orang nak gaduh ngan mama kat rumah.. Sedih... huk huk :'(( Okay... separation anxiety overload!! :P
