Home Alone...eh2, At Office Alone

One by one left for study leave..two other colleagues are staying, but since guys n girls have separate offices, i'm left here in mine..and now i'm alone in the office, still hoping that my study leave will be granted as soon as possible..but it's impossible to leave yet since I need to work here for more than one year to be granted a study leave..i already been offered to 2 universities; however, need to postpone the registration..it's a new policy and I have to accept that unless if I want to pay for Master Degree myself, which i don't think i could afford..So, waiting sucks but i need to live with it..


meme n awe

anyway, i just need a long break from work before the new semester starts..so, i'll be at home from new year(Maal Hijrah) till end of Christmas...can't wait!

I am Not Perfect

"Ko ni takde kelemahan la", said a colleague..exactly the same words...it was after he showed me some problems on his Excel document, and I helped him to correct it..

oh no..don't view me like that..you don't know me enough if you don't see my flaws..

I am not perfect...I'm just a fast learner, I think.....

Korban

Lagi 10 hari kita akan menyambut Hari Raya Korban. Dulu2 ape yang aku tau pasal raya korban ni, setiap kali raya mesti byk lembu kena sembelih..teringat lak tgk lembu sembelih live kat surau cheras masa kecik2 dulu..ngeri rasenye bila tgk darah merah terpercik bila leher lembu dipotong..brani gak mase dulu ekk..hehe

So, aku ade gak tgk2 pasal ibadah korban yang amat dituntut dalam Islam.

" Sesungguhnya kami telah mengurniakan kepadamu            ( wahai  muhammad ) kebaikan yang banyak ( di dunia dan di akhirat ) oleh itu, kerjakanlah sembahyang kerana Tuhanmu semata-mata dan sembelihlah korban sebagai bersyukur) sesungguhnya orang yang bencikan engkau, dialah yang terputus (dari mendapat sebarang perkara yang diingininya )".
 ( Surah al-Kausar : 1-3  )

Ibadah ni x wajib, tapi sunat yang amat dituntut..maksud amat dituntut ni ialah pahala amat besar dan barangsiapa yang mampu, haruslah lakukan ibadah korban nih..sangat digalakkan, tapi manusia zaman sekarang lagi pentingkan harta benda drp melakukan ibadah sebegini..bayangkan ade orang bil telefon sampai beratus2...handbag beli nak coach, dior, LV je..baju beli semua nak berjenama..pastu makan kat luar nak makan kat hotel 5 bintang..semua mahal2 sampai satu meal jadi RM100++..tapi bila disuruh amalkan korban, masing2 lari..macam2 alasan..mahal la..xde duit la..padahal satu bahagian cuma dlm RM350 je..ape la sgt duit kalo nak dibandingkan dengan pahala n keberkatan..

Dalam satu Hadis yang diriwayatkan dari Abi Hurairah katanya, Sabda Rasulullah s.a.w.  : 



" Barangsiapa yang mempunyai kelapangan ( mampu ) untuk berkorban tatapi tidak dilakukannya, maka janganlah dia datang mendekati tempat kami bersembahyang ini  ".
  ( riwayat Ahmad dan Ibni Majah )



 
based on hadis ni, ibadah korban hampir2 jugak seperti ibadah wajib utk mereka yang berkemampuan, yang Allah limpahkan rezeki yang byk...pendek kata org kaya pasti mampu kan..Korban ni salah satu tanda kesyukuran kita terhadap Allah yang telah melimpahkan rezeki kpd kita..tu yang aku paham..


: " Dan ( ingatlah ) tak kala Tuhan kamu memberitahu, " demi sesungguhnya! jika kamu bersyukur nescaya aku akan tambahi nikmatku kepada kamu, dan demi sesungguhnya  jika kamu kufur ingkar sesungguhnya  azab-Ku amatlah keras  ".  
( Surah Ibrahim : 7  )

Sekadar pengetahuan aku, sesiapa yang melalukan ibadah korban ni, disunatkan agar tidak memotong kuku, rambut dan bulu dari 1 Zulhijah sampai la hari dia berkorban.
Sabda Rasulullah SAW:
"Apabila kamu telah melihat anak bulan Zulhijjah dan salah seorang dari kamu hendak berkorban maka hendaklah dia menahan dirinya dari memotong rambut dan kukunya." (H/R Muslim, 1977. Hadis dari Ummu Salamah.)..byk lagi hadis2nya..boleh cari sendiri..even dlm internet pon ade kalo rajin google..

One more thing, disunatkan juga berpuasa pada 9 Zulhijah, iaitu sempena hari Wukuf, dan sebagai tanda kesyukuran sempena Aidiladha..

Jadi, renung2kan la..banyak hikmah2 raya haji nih..cuma antara nak ambil tahu atau tidak, tepuk dada tanya la iman.....wallahualam

Such Old Laptop with 'Broken Keys'

It's been more than 5 years i've been using the Dell Precision M60..due to the age, it seems to have lotsa problems lately..not with the windows system, but the battery and keyboard..The battery had long been dead for couple of months..it started with lasting for half an hour, and now it could not even last a second..so, i've always been using the AC adapter and if i trip on it, the laptop will shut off immediately..and currently, the keyboard is having problem..the number keys aren't working..i got fed up before i found out about using the On-Screen Keyboard(OSK)..
If your keyboard does not work, simply go to Start-->Run then type osk and press enter..Automatically the keyboard screen will be displayed..But if it's not working, you can find osk.exe at C://Windows/system32..so now i dont need to thump the key hardly with my finger..

When the morning is delayed on a weekend

Rise and shine!
oh, it's afternoon already and i was waken up by a phone call by someone asking for the room for rent..i'm currently looking for a housemate since the previous one decided to work in kl..need to find one to share the rent n bills..alone again and my weekend seems to be in front of the tv watching movies from the astro's channel..that if i get too lazy to go out..

Staying alone, some people would ask this one particular question: "tak sunyi ke??"and the answer would be "nope"..to be honest, i like it since i'm free doing anything i like, and do not need to get approval from anyone else of how the house looks like..coz there's some time i would leave my laptop, bags, books and magazines scattered on the living room's floor..i know that it could be an eye sore for most people..

besides, staying alone teaches me lots of things..especially the being truly independent part..when i'm living with my parents, i dont need to worry much bout the bills, laundry, or groceries..lets say when i'm out of milk at night, it would be in the fridge the next morning when i'm at my parents'..but now, having my fridge empty would mean that i need to get out and buy some groceries..i also don't wake up finding out that my breakfast is already on the table..furthermore, i need to cook for myself coz i would get sick of the outside's food..i also need to do my own laundry at least twice a week..and every month, i need to collect all the bills and pay them at the post office..talk bout responsibilities for my own self..money seems to flow out easily each month..

accompanying the previous question would be the typical suggestion: "kahwin je la cepat2, kan senang"..urmm, it's not as easy as saying it..haven't thought bout it yet since i haven't found my 'mr right'..i'm not ready to get married yet coz i wanna get over my studies first, probably in two years..i know that many friends or relatives my age already ended their single status..and almost 96% of my colleagues are married and have or yet to have children..i don't want to put any pressure on that matter(i know most typical malay women my age would worry much bout it..some would even cry over it..duuhhh)..and i'm glad my parents do support me 100% on finishing up my studies first..but i will always keep in mind that, "manusia hanya merancang, Allah menentukan segalanya..."

need to continue doing some chores..it's Sunday and and everyone knows what comes the day after....

bookstore oh bookstore

It's 4am and I still cant sleep..guess that my thought of waking up early and go to the TC beach for morning fresh air would only just be a picture in my mind...maybe next time kot..

seems that this blog has been so long outdated...not bcos i didnt have time for it...i actually didn't have any word for it...

i realized something about Kuantan yesterday: there is no decent bookstore here to find varieties of books..yeah, surprisingly books are my new passions besides shoes nowadays..well, not going to elaborate on that..went to popular bookstore in megamall kuantan yesterday(guess that's the biggest bookstore i ever seen here)..i was looking for 'practise for ielts' book, but couldnt find any..the Language section only had dictionaries in various languages and books for improving english..no specific exercise books for higher exams..frustated, i went to east coast mall, which i know there's only a slight chance to find the book there..and to no surprise, when i asked the SA, she said "sini tak ada jual buku exam peringkat tinggi"..and i know she has no idea what ielts is...
this make me miss going back home where i could just go to mph midvalley or alamanda where i'm sure there're lots of such book that i'm looking for..where the heck can i find mph in kuantan????the exam is in just 5 days!guess i'll find some other way to study......

Revive (not the isotonic revive)

I didn't get enough sleep last night due to intake of caffeine..one glass of nescafe is enough to keep me up all night long..so i stayed awake preparing notes for class till about 3.30am and slept for just 2 n a half hours..got so lazy to wake up and get myself ready for work..it's kinda like monday blues but worse, coz i was sleepless..so, it was a slow pace morning..started my car engine at 9.05am, and off to work..good thing about being an academician is the working hour is flexible..only need to come to work 40 hours a week..but sometimes i worked at the office less than that, as long as i take some time doing my work at home..and the important part is i play my role well..

came to work with out of focus mind and very2 sleepless..i postponed my class for 15mins to give myself some time to set the mood..thought that i would just give back the students' test papers and discuss bout it for a while..should take less than an hour..but the minute i stepped into the class, it was like a revival from the sleepiness..felt fresh n zest while talking to them..so, the two-hour class lasted for 2 n half hour..it's funny sometimes when i feel down n moody, coming to class could sweep those feelings away.. \(^o^)/

Cuteness

During your childhood, have you ever wondered about how people can be inside the television? I have a story to share, which reminded that I used to think that the people were really2 inside that television box....

Location: Kajang Mosque
While waiting for the Isya' prayer, my eyes were on 2 kids wearing cute hijab. They were tapping on the figure of their dad on the television and calling "abah..abah..abah!" on and on..since their father didn't respond, one of the kids went to the guys' prayer area and talked to the dad..i guess she told her dad to respond while the kids are calling for him..So, the next time the kids called, the dad waved on the camera..but when there were two men and two other kids blocking their dad's view..the girls shouted:"tepi la!..tepi laaa!" and tapped on their figures...

funny...and cute at the same time..Ramadhan Al-Mubarak everyone :)

so cliche

It's easy to get friends who will have fun together..but whenever there's a hard time for you, they'll just leave you on your own...so unthoughtful....

The Zombie Village

It's quite exciting to work in a new place; however, with some construction still going on, it scares me, especially when there are no students around. This place has become like a zombie village for one week. While walking to the restroom, no one was around. All I could see were some construction workers sitting on the ground floor, chit-chatting. The horror part was the restroom, where some ceilings are not covered yet. Sometimes i go to two floors down just to feel safe..

Where are the others? Well, sitting in an isolated office, it's not easy to see what's going on outside. But i'm glad that i share the office with a few colleagues instead of having a room on my own. At least we could talk to each other when we're bored. and i'm glad that i bought the celcom broadband so that i could use the internet. hoping that they set up the telephone line and LAN soon so that it would be easier for all staff.

can't wait for the students to come back..i think this place is tooooooo quiet!

back to work!
