Forbearance

2011-08-06T12:41:00.000+08:00

The Prophet SAW was as forbearing towards those under his command as he was towards others. Anas ibn Malik RA said: "I served the Messenger of Allah for ten years; and throughout that entire period, he never once said regarding something I did, 'Why did you do that?' And he never once said regarding something I didn't do, 'Why didn't you do that?' " Everyone who came into contact with the Prophet SAW was immediately impressed by his smiling countenance, easy-going manner, friendly demeanor, and forgiving nature. Their amazement quickly turned into admiration, and then into love that became firmly rooted in their hearts.

Ramadhan kareem

2011-08-02T13:38:00.000+08:00

Abu Hurairah menyatakan : Telah bersabda Rasulullah S.A.W yang bermaksud : Apabila telah tibanya Ramadhan, dibuka pintu-pintu syurga dan ditutup segala pintu neraka dan diikat segala syaitan. -Hadis dikeluarkan oleh imam Bukhari, Muslim, Nasai'e, Ahmad dan Baihaqi-

Alhamdulillah, bulan yang penuh keberkatan dah pon tiba..setan pon xde time ni, so kita perlu berjuang memerangi nafsu dan memenuhkan masa dengan amalan2 yang diredhai Allah..

Abu Hurairah telah berkata : Aku telah mendengar Rasulullah S.A.W bersabda tentang Ramadhan yang bermaksud : Sesiapa yang mendirikannya(Ramadhan) penuh keimanan dan keikhlasan diampunkan baginya apa dosanya yang telah lalu. - Hadis riwayat Bukhari, Muslim, Tarmizi, Abu Daud, Nasai'e,Malik,Ahmad dan Baihaqi-

kat bawah ni aku nak senaraikan kebiasaan yang berlaku di bulan Ramadhan (yg juga pernah jd kebiasaan aku) yang kita patut renungkan dan seboleh2nya elakkan:

1) time2 bulan Ramadhan ni masing2 jadikan alasan untuk kurang produktif dalam melakukan kerja..badan jadi lesu, ngantuk, cepat penat...it's actually in your minds..n maybe what you take during sahur..so, nak elakkan drp terjadi kelesuan, make sure amik sahur yg ada nutrisi2 penting, and make sure minum air byk skit..sbab kat msia ni kan panas berdekang, mudah dehydrated..and maybe leh amik supplement to keep energized the whole day..

2) benda ni sebelum Ramadhan pon orang dah dok sibuk..sibuk ngan baju raya, kuih raya, langsir raya, renovate rumah utk raya, etc etc..byk kali gak terjadi kat aku..make sure you snap out of it cepat2..bulan mulia ni kita kena bykkan amal..pasal raya tu mungkin boleh dikurangkan..sebab byk benda2 sunat yg kita boleh buat utk dapatkan pahala yg berlipat2 kali ganda..

3) bila dh sibuk pasal raya, mula la nak pi shopping sana sini..lebih2 lagi skarang tengah sale kan..so, macam2 yg dibelinya..bila shopping?siang2 takot penat, so shopping lepas berbuka...x payah la galak sgt shopping..apa kata kita p terawih??bukankah itu lagi utama??mengejar keberkatan bulan mulia??

4) azan subuh belum lagi berkumandang..dah berfikir2 apa juadah berbuka hari ni??nak beli apa di bazar ramadhan?nak masak apa??bukan takat masa sahur je..tgh dok bekerja pon pikir..siap tgk jam berpuluh2 kali menanti detik berbuka..hmm..slalu gak aku macam ni..tapi, apa kata kita penuhkan masa2 tersebut untuk ingat Allah..berzikir n selawat byk2, x kira di mana saja; sama ada masa bekerja, masa berjalan menuju ke suatu tempat, tgh drive, tron tangga, berehat sekejap etc etc..insyaAllah lagi berkat..

5) berbisness..ini x salah, malah dituntut sebab mencari rezeki yang halal..tapi kadang2 berbisness ni mengurangkan amalan kita..dulu2 ms skola aku slalu la tolong mak aku bisness kuih raya..order bertimbun2 sampai x menang tgn (Alhamdulillah rezeki masuk)..tp buat kuih sampai kadang2 x tido n x terawih..masa sahur n berbuka pon still lagi buat kuih..in my opinion, mmg bagus berbisness tp berpada2 la..jgn sampai amalan lain terganggu..

6) perasaan 'x sabarnye nak raya!'..kecik2 dulu slalu camni kan..harap2 bila dah dewasa kita try la berfikir 'aku nak manfaatkan sepenuhnya Ramadhan ini'..sbab perasaan x sabar nk raya tu, bila dah tiba raya, terus x teruja..rasa mcm biase je (time dewasa ni la)..tapi bayangkan kalau kita terawih hari2, sebelum ni x pnah solat sunat sebelum n selepas solat wajib kita buat time Ramadhan, try to involve in charity, dpt khatam Quran dlm masa sebulan, dpt berqiamullail, maybe dpt siapkan kerja lagi byk drp bulan2 biasa...bila tiba je Syawal, insyaAllah kita akan jadi org yg lebih bersyukur dan mengharap supaya diberikan umur yg panjang untuk bertemu dgn Ramadhan lagi..and akan terasa nikmatnya raya bila kita penuhkan hari2 Ramadhan dgn amalan yg baik..

So, jom kita sama2 cuba untuk memperbaiki diri n sama2 la kita manfaatkan bulan mulia ni ya..Selamat berpuasa untuk semua umat Islam...moga Ramadhan kali ini dipenuhi keberkatan, insyaAllah..Ramadhan Mubarak everyone!

Daripada Abi Soleh Az-zayyat bahawa dia telah mendengar Abu Hurairah berkata: Rassullah S.A.W telah bersabda yang bermaksud : Setiap amalan anak Adam baginya melainklan puasa maka ia untukKu dan Aku akan membalasnya. Dan puasa adalah perisai, maka apabila seseorang berada pada hari puasa maka dia dilarang menghampiri(bercumbu) pada hari itu dan tidak meninggikan suara.Sekiranya dia dihina atau diserang maka dia berkata : Sesungguhnya aku berpuasa demi Tuhan yang mana diri nabi Muhammad ditanganNya maka perubahan bau mulut orang berpuasa lebih harum di sisi Allah pada hari qiamat daripada bau kasturi, dan bagi orang berpuasa dua kegembiraan yang mana dia bergembira dengan keduanya apabila berbuka dia bergembira dengan waktu berbukanya dan apabila bertemu Tuhannya dia gembira dengan puasanya. -Hadis riwayat imam Bukhari, Muslim, Nasai'e, Ahmad, Ibn Khuzaimah, Ibn Habban dan Baihaqi-

oh Durian

2011-07-26T21:27:00.000+08:00

Musim durian kali ni lain daripada yang sebelum ni..ini xde kena mengena dengan peralihan waktu musim atau penemuan durian sebesar gajah..tapi yang pelik kali ni ialah 'aku'..nak tau kena baca sampai habis..

start bulan jun tahun ni, berlonggok2 durian dijual di tepi jalan dan di pasar malam..aku tengok jadi teringin la jugak..tapi masalahnye xde member gile durian yg boleh aku pau seulas dua..sebab aku xde la gila sampai nak beli sebijik makan sensorg..so kalau lalu je tepi org jual durian aku tengok aje la..

ye aku memang bukan hantu durian..kalau makan pon sekali hadap paling banyak 3 ulas je..tiap kali papa bwk balik dari kebun dulu, yang selalu perhabiskan cuma adik bongsu aku n mama..diorg paling suka durian dlm famili..n tiap kali ade durian diorg slalu tanye, "cukup ke?habis nanti jgn menyesal" memang aku x menyesal....

tahun ni, aku p field trip buat keje kat kebun kelapa sawit..kebetulan kebun tu ade pokok durian skali..so, sampai2 je, owner kebun tu p kutip durian yg dah gugur and kopek kat situ jugak..jadi breakfast aku la di pagi hari..tgh2 lapar makan durian..n surprisingly, boleh pulak aku telan satu per satu ulas non-stop sampai la x nampak isi lagi kat pangsa2 durian tu..mungkin sebab lapar..mungkin juga nikmat makan di dalam kebun beramai2..ape2 pon kali ni aku makan byk drp biasa..

best jugak sbenanye dpt p field trip tu..makan durian n dgr durian jatuh..yg xleh nak lupa masa p kat satu pokok sawit ni yg btol2 bwh pokok durian..lepas beredar dari pokok tu, baru je jalan dalam 10 meter 'duuuppp!' jatuh sebijik kat spot yang sama aku berdiri tu..alhamdulillah, nasib la x jatuh masa aku berdiri kat situ..kalau x 'masok paper Metro Harian' la bak kata Dr H..

selepas selesai keje aku kt situ, owner kebun tu bwk la kitorg p kat umah sorg owner kebun yg len..p beli durian selonggok utk kitorg bwk balik..

mula2 igt xmau amik, tp bos dah soh amik 2 bijik aku bwk je la p lab aku..offer kat Lincoln mamat pakistan labmate..muka dia sgt excited mula2 sbab dia crita ade kwn dia habaq pasal durian, "it smells like hell but tastes like heaven"..so, masa aku dh kopek durian guna sudu besi, mula2 dia x reti camne nak amik seulas durian tu..dia igt leh amik kecik, aku perhati je la dia amik sudu aku p kaut yg kat hujung sikit..rase nk tergelak tgk mamat tu terkulat2 mase makan..haha dia x suka rasa durian rupenye!pastu aku tunjuk cara nak amik seulas, amik ko besar gile seulas tu..pastu dia dah sentuh satu aku paksa amik makan yg dh disentuh tu..hampa btol mamat tu merasa durian yg x sesedap yg disangka..then sebijik tu aku n labmate lg sorg la perabiskan sbab mmg tinggal kitorg je dlm lab time tu..

satu lagi aku bwk balik bilik, makan lg 3 ulas pastu yg selebihnye aku masukkan dlm tupperware utk bwk balik kampung the next day...x terkira la bape byk durian aku makan hari tu..nak tido pon susah sbab panas gile badan mcm org demam..sedar2 dr tido pon badan panas lagi..first time melantak durian sampai panas badan...

balik2 kampung, the next day parents aku beli durian yg dah kopek isi kuning..sedap berlemak, aku melantak lagi..a day after tu parents aku beli lagi durian kampung 9 bijik..melantak lagi..so, 4 hari berturut2 kenduri durian..mmg lain drp kebiasaan lah utk aku..buang tebiat melantak durian pulak..

Dayah & Akap

2011-07-24T23:24:00.002+08:00

A very brief story on how two people became soulmates.......
I have known Dayah and Akap since primary school, but they both hadn't met back then, until the reunion on March, 2010 where they met for the first time..

They sat on each end

Akap was interested in Dayah, and one of our friends, Acap hitched them together..They were engaged on July 2010, and got married a year later..

I'm very amazed how Allah arranges on how they're matched..they were so near yet so far apart more than a decade ago, but then when the time was right, He met them together..and now they're newly wed!So happy for them, and may there be more following their path toward building up a family...

Like a walking robot

2011-07-05T22:22:00.000+08:00

Walking has been hard for me these few days, i guess it's because i didn't warm up before playing paintball last Sunday.served me right!hah!

It seemed that last weekend was a really short one since I came home late and got back to school early..at first, on Friday i planned to go back home in the afternoon, so bought a ticket in the morning then suddenly around 12pm, my supervisor called for some emergency matter. She told me to prepare something and make it done by the end of 'the day' which means I had to finish up by around 6pm..So, my train ticket was burned to finish up my work..managed to complete it and then decided to still go back home since i already promised to my mum..I called her about planning to take the night train, then suddenly i was thinking to bake carrot cake when i get back..

arrived KL Sentral at 6.40 and I was quite surprised with the crowd since it was still early and it's Saturday! *KL weh, u're not in school duuhh!~* Then took the commuter and arrived home at around 7.30am..At home my mum told me that she had all the ingredients for carrot cake.."Semua barang dah ada..kata nak buat, buat ye!"..so managed to bake my own carrot cake that day..it turned out good!it made me want to bake some other cakes when coming home next time..*fingers crossed*

carrot cake with cream cheese topping and grated chocolate

It wasn't that hard to bake a cake, but the preparation of ingredients was quite tedious coz I had to measure them accurately, if not the cake wouldn't turn out as good..I myself love to eat this self-made cake..so, whatever people say about the taste, i won't mind, but mostly said it's yummy thus i'm glad it is..on Saturday evening, my sv bbm'ed me about a meeting on monday morning; i was thinking to go back to school on monday but had to cancel that thought and so i bought a Sunday's night ticket; thus another night on the train..

on sunday morning, went to cyberjaya to play paintball with stevens' friends..i don't know why i didn't bother to call my girlfriends to ask whether they're coming; assumed that they'd come based on the facebook confirmation..turned out that they didn't come at all coz of some other matters, but thank God syafiq brought his fiance along; so i wouldn't be so awkward to join the all-guys group..at first it was raining, so we cancelled the paintball and head to mamak's restaurant to get some breakfast..suddenly the rain stopped and the guys decided to play..i played as well n i'm the only girl playing, haha!whatever, i was excited to play when coming, so i must play anyway!

out of 11 who came, only 8 went for the battle

we took 500 pallets each; that's quite a lot and i didn't keep track of how many games we played, but it's scarily-fun(*still wanna use an oxymoron*).. :P fun coz i could shoot people but scary to get shot!overall, i don't know how many of my shots hit the opponent; but i had 4 shots on my legs, 3 shots on my arms, one shot on my neck, thumb, n shoe, and 4 headshots(luckily there's a mask there)..got total of 7 red bruises on the legs and arms which turned to ugly purple today..they do hurt, but bearable..what's annoying is the muscle strain on my thighs, which i think occurred coz i didn't warm up before the game, and also strain on the arms due to carrying the heavy marker..i hope they'll relieve soon, so that i won't feel walking like a robot anymore..however, if anyone ask whether to play paintball again, i definitely will say YES!

Pro.......let me spell the rest of the words later

Does anybody have any medication for procrastination?

Dr Spell-It-Right is here!

2011-04-24T23:20:00.000+08:00

Thanks to spellchecker, I don't have to worry about my spellings anymore..That would minimize mistakes while writing; therefore, grammar is all i need to be aware of. However, I guess some people do not take advantage of it, and make major spelling mistakes all over their documents.
Wanna share what I'd found recently:

'decision' was spelled as 'decition' in the whole document.
'harvest' was spelled as 'harveness' (oh, now it's been underlined in red!)
it is supposed to be 'bunch' but that person wrote 'branch' (urmm..can u tell any similarity between both?NOT!)

How would you feel reading a doc with spelling errors??It gives me headache especially when you don't know what's going on and wanna find it out on that doc!if it's grammatical error, I would understand..grammar isn't easy, right?What if people misunderstand the thing that you wanna convey to them?That'd be a disaster.

Soooooooo, people!please,please,PLEASE!!!turn on your spellchecker always, and do check those red underlines on your written document first before distributing it to others!!!do browse through what you type and find the RED UNDERLINES!!and oh, if u're not sure about certain words, GOOGLE them!or simply go to dictionary.com etc to find their meaning and how to use them.how easy is that with internet?u don't have to flip through the thick bulky dictionary like old time!and you don't need any teacher to be by your side to check every word.

p/s: please excuse my emotion..i get easily annoyed with even such petty thing..

Tajuddin Hussain and Ais Tingkap

2011-04-16T23:40:00.000+08:00

As a continuation from the previous entry, i'll tell about the best (at least for current find) Nasi Kandar's place in town, Tajuddin Hussain. You can't tell it sells the best food from the look of the place, it's like old-school 'warung'. but when you see the crowd, you know how good the food is. Arrived around 1pm; obviously it's lunch time, and the place is so packed with people that we had to wait for a while till there're four empty chairs for us to sit on. Then we ordered out food. Would love to try their briyani;however, it's finished already! what's left only white rice and nasi tomato, so we chose to eat nasi tomato. 3 of us ordered ayam ros and another person ordered kurma kambing. And when our food came.........

Ayam Ros. It's a quarter of a whole chicken.

Full plate nasi tomato.

I was surprised with the portion of the rice. ONE FULL PLATE! since i had nasi lemak and karipaps for breakfast, i thought that i couldn't finish eating the food. My stomach got full after eating half plate. 2 of my friends had given up after half plate, one finished eating, and I almost decided to give up. But then while listening to my friends' stories, i just ate the rice bit by bit till.....

my empty plate!

Yay!Victory!hahaha..yeah, managed to finish up my food!see, the food is so good that even my full stomach couldn't resist..Ayam ros tasted great; however, if you can't stand spicy food, you could opt for kurma instead. I'd tried kurma kambing(lamb kurma), and it tasted good as well since there's no typical smell of lamb(dunno how to describe). everything was good!It didn't disappoint us who wanted to get briyani in the first place.

Opening hours: 1100-1530 and 1830-2200. Closed on Sunday

I guess I should go there again some time to get the briyani. maybe should be there by 11am to avoid disappointment. :)

Total damage: ayam ros + nasi tomato + limau ais = rm7.80. kurma kambing = rm6.50

If you are wondering where to find this place, you can google the place's name to get the full address. I only know that it's located on Lebuh Queen and near Lebuh Pasar. Oh ya, there's even a stall that sells some kuih-muih on the intersection of those roads.

kuih-muih stall.

Didn't try any since I was full and couldn't even look at food that time. but my friend bought some samosas and she said that they're yummy that she'd buy again next time.

Ais Tingkap

Next stop was the Ais Tingkap(Ais Sherbet). At first, i thought that it tasted like normal sirap ros drink.

Ais tingkap bungkus rm1.70. it's rm1.50 in a cup.

It's called ais tingkap since it was sold through a window earlier during -i don't know when-. It's made with sherbet ice, sirap ros, getah anggur, biji selasih, kelapa muda, and a spray of some herbal ingredient. The taste was sooooooooo refreshing!!!I won't be lying if I tell you that it's the best drink i had in my life!fuhh~kinda sound exaggerating, but i'm not kidding!i love it!and of course, want it more!

If you are wondering where to find this place, it's just beside Chowrasta. You can find Pasembor Chowrasta near the place. I wouldn't bother trying it(still full with Tajuddin Hussain's).

Pasemboq!

Or, if you're like 'where the heck is Chowrasta?', then find the police station and go to this alley opposite the police station.Still don't know how to find and want to depend on your GPS?look in google map or just google bout it. i'm sure there're many blogger who posted the full address with it's exact coordinate.

i call this 'ceruk' alley

Rainforest Bakery

2011-04-16T09:09:00.000+08:00

Suddenly feel like blogging about food hunting missions that my friends and i went around penang. It is a place that's rich with variety of yummy food, so i think i should share some of the experiences trying out in different eateries. Therefore, i'll start with the recent ones, then will try to post up with the old ones.

It started with me craving for bagels with cream cheese after having a dream about grabbing some blueberry bagels but the dream of taking even a bite of it didn't happen. So, I started to google 'bagels penang' and it led me to this website. Since it was a Sunday, Rainforest Bakery should be closed, so I decided to check it out on the next weekend. However, a friend suddenly initiated the idea to go there on Wednesday, so with the last minute plan, we went for a long lunch break that day. Went to Tajuddin Hussain and Ais Tingkap as well. Gonna put those in some other posts.

The bakery is located on Lebuh Chulia. It's just a small place, but well known with their healthy and organic breads. I believe that the owner had travelled around Europe to get hands on experience of bread making. Won't explain any further; you can find more information on the website that i posted previously. Just enjoy the pics below!

My friend bought this carrot cake. She said that it tasted soooo goooood. To those carrot cake lover, you should get this coz it's loaded with shredded carrots n walnuts. And the price is reasonable, cheaper than Secret Recipe's.

Focacia bread, an Italian bread. RM3.90

Raisin Twist, RM3.70.

Scones, a pack of 5 for RM5.50. Love the texture, and tasted good.(Actually, this is my first scones)

Parmesan biscuits. RM1.30 each.

Chewy nut trail, RM3.80. This cookie is loaded with many kinds of nuts and honey spread. They gave us some to taste. so delicious that I will definitely get this when I come back.

Garlic butter, RM7.50. They made this.

Hosni, kak Kay, and Eisha being hyped in the bakery.

Last but not least, my poppy seed n sesame bagels(RM1.50 each) with cream cheese(add RM1 for each bagel).

By the way, it is better to call first if you have specific bread that you want to get. We ordered our bagels before coming there, so that we wouldn't be disappointed if the bagels tray is empty(coz it is!). Oh, and you can even find a vegan loaf here for RM3.60(250g).

Overall, everything that we bought from here tasted so good and it's a place that I will definitely go again someday.

Silent Rain

2011-02-15T16:07:00.000+08:00

I was busy writing n running program, n when i looked out the window it was raining..didn't hear any sound of rain..it was silence..the birds were chirping and the sky was blue..that's how i didn't realize that it's raining...

people will always keep asking 'how are u', 'how's study', 'how's health'...blabla...n the answer would always be: 'i'm doin great' to keep it short..

how great?u could see how much free time there was going here n there, eating good food everywhere, gossiping with friends, doing new things, shopping at the mall, the unneeded of a doctor, calming face while doing work..etc..

the feeling of giving up everytime no solution is yet to be seen...??let it be like the silent rain...n hope that it'll stop someday

Stranger!!

2010-11-17T17:33:00.000+08:00

me??i lied on most things and shouted "GET LOST!" silently..

Trust Me I'm a Student

2010-07-20T01:46:00.000+08:00

same old...same old...been meaning to write a new entry a while ago..but busy getting used to a new environment..well, not really 'new' new; it's kind of a visit to the past..way back like almost a decade ago: HOSTEL LIFE......

oh yeah, i'm no longer a working lady for the next 2 years(insyaAllah), so hello to being a student!at first i was sceptical about living in a hostel after comfortably living in a rented house..but then here i am in a crappy room, making myself comfortable....

the first day i got my room's key, went to check it out..it's a 3rd floor's twin sharing room..semput!~my roomate wasn't there on that day..while stepping in, i almost cried looking at the thickness of dusts everywhere..they're like inches of dusts under the bed, in the metal cupboard, and around the study table..well, didn't i mention that the person i replace left the room only a few hours before i came in??the room was like being left for yearsss!!!my mom laughed looking at my expression..then she was wondering what my roomate will be like..she guessed that my roomate would be chubby and fat; she peeked at some hanging clothes and saw the size: XL, then she saw some boxes of biscuits under the table..haha, so funny la...

so that night, i decided to sleep over at my friend's while thinking how i should start cleaning my place..the next day, came to a meeting then off to KL, still wondering what kind of roomate i would have...

on the weekend, i decided to pack up my stuff and drive for 5 hours to the university..met my roomate for the first time..my mom's guessing was not true..my roomate is just about my size, and she's a nice person too..i'm glad to have such nice roomate :) ..so then i started cleaning up...so surprised about how thick the dusts were..it took me like 3 hrs to get rid of them..it went with lots of sneezing and itching on my skin..felt like i'm breathing normally again after the cleaning session..then it took me almost an hour to unpack my stuff...then a hostel life has began.....

funny that i'm able to wake up very early everyday...and, not owning a washing machine here, i'm able to wash my own clothes...what a surprise..it's a great workout as well..i'm also trying to discipline myself, setting up 9am-5pm Mon-Thurs as my study days..while weekend Fri-Sun...glad having flexible time here since i'm doing research; no class at all..so need to plan each day on what i should do..i also need to set goals for each month, so that i could take a week leave each month if the goals are reached in 3 weeks time...hope that i can finish up my studies in two years or less...fingers crossed!!~

This is not a Karaoke's Lounge

2010-05-10T15:26:00.000+08:00

Someone was asking whether her RAs could share office with me, I didn't mind.......
But then, when they're already here, I get pretty annoyed with the loud singing of this one person..
I won't mind if it's just a whisper singing, or a humming sound..but she's singing out loud with a horrible voice..
I can still hear it even when I put on my headphone..
oh please, this is not a karaoke's lounge!

*annoyed*

The Craps are Back

2010-05-05T14:50:00.000+08:00

fuh~
it's been a while since i last posted an entry here..
so dusty that i have to sweep it away.....

I'm sooo happy today since my work for the semester has been done..It's quite a stressful semester since I got my teaching assignment at the very last minute; added burden: there's no references from the previous lecturers! hence that made my whole 4 months of last minute and HARD work..very2 tiring but I'm glad that I went through it well...and thank God no student fail which made my work easier..ho yeah~

some ppl were asking about my decision of previous entry..so here it is.....
why do i choose to stay instead of taking the last job offer that I got???
to tell the truth, I already feel comfortable being where I am now..and the possibility to be posted somewhere far away from home is high if I took the job..so that's why I decided to stay..the part which I don't like doing research is because of fear of the 'unknown'..therefore, there's no harm trying and learn to love it..it could be enjoyable..it is very challenging, but i need to tell myself that it's never impossible..lotsa ppl can do it, why don't i???~no nagging anymore...coz I read in some book that u will never be happy if u always questioning about what u r doing with what u should have been doing...be thankful of each second of ur life..the past is already gone, future is unknown, and today is all that u have....

In hadith, Rasulullah saw said:"Strive for that which will benefit u, seek help from Allah, don't be weak n don't say: If I had done such n such, the situation would be such n such. But say: Allah has decreed n what He wishes, He does."

MESTI MAUUUUUUUU!!!

Lack of Focus

2010-03-01T14:11:00.002+08:00

Kalo kat dlm crowd of people or somewhere yg ade ramai orang, aku nih memang fail kalo nak recognize orang..nak cari org yg dikenali pon kadang2 melilau2 mata aku..padahal kat depan aku je..silap2 org sbelah pon aku x prasan...rase macam camera aku nye focus tu lagi hebat dari mata aku sendiri...

al-kisahnye smalam naik bas nak blk kuantan..aku dok kat seat blakang sket..then aku dudok la..masa bas nak jln aku lambai2 tgn aku cam dak kecik kat parents aku..pastu aku terperasan from the corner of my eye a guy depan aku toleh 2 or 3 kali kat aku..tapi x tau la sape..kalo knal maybe die dh tegor aku..being an ignorant, aku buat xtau je la coz bila aku try pandang blk org tu die dah toleh ke depan smula...

even kat perhentian R&R even though aku kuar msok bas pon x prasan lagi org tuh..

sampai la bila bas tu dh nk sampai ke destinasi aku nk turun..org tu toleh n tegur aku.."miss, tron kat mane miss?miss mmg org kl eh?" omg..out of all ppl i know nape la student aku yg naik satu bas..

so, the conclusion is, kalo sesape yg terserempak ngan aku kat mane2 kalo aku wat bodo meaning aku xtau pon kewujudan korg kat situ..bukannye sombong k..so, kalo terserempak tu, korang tegur la dulu.tu pon kalo nak aku realize korg kat situ, kalo x, biarkan saje aku begitu.......

Antara Dua

2010-02-16T01:28:00.000+08:00

“Daripada Aisyah r.a. katanya, Rasulullah saw. tidak pernah memilih antara dua perkara melainkan baginda akan memilih yang paling mudah antara keduanya selagi perkara itu tidak mendatangkan dosa. Jika mendatangkan dosa, baginda adalah orang yang pertama menjauhinya. Rasulullah s.a.w juga tidak pernah menuntut sesuatu perkara untuk kepentingan dirinya melainkan dilakukan untuk kesucian agama Allah, maka pembelaan yang dilakukan olehnya adalah semata-mata kerana Allah Taala.”

Riwayat al-Bukhari dan Muslim

A great opportunity????

2010-02-12T19:32:00.000+08:00

Refer to the previous entry...well, yeah i don't think research is my cup of tea..i have tried to learn n love my current job..yes, i love my current job..but how bout my future job(a step ahead)???sometimes i wonder am i heading to the right path, i mean do i have the 'right' job for me???i know that 'rezeki ada di mana-mana' and 'when there's a will, there's a way'..so, am i willing take another path besides the one that i'm taking right now????

received an offer letter today to another job..it doesn't require me to further study or publish journals, but the job scope and 'tangga gaji' is still the same..at first, i thought that my prayer had been answered since i got the opportunity to do something else..but then, i keep contemplating whether i should go for it or not..my only fear is that they could send me anywhere as far as Sabah for this one..but i wanna be near my hometown.........

and i need to decide by the end of this month, which is only two weeks away......

this is the part of being an adult that i hate the most: making decision!

Teaching is fun, but.........

Kitchen Explosion

2010-01-28T14:33:00.000+08:00

Pissed off last night with the ASTRO "No Services" from evening till night..Didn't bother to call the customer service coz I thought that it was due to the rain..So, I ended up staring at the blank TV monitor then after a while fell asleep..

Suddenly...KABOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!

Almost got a heart attack!Instantly I got up an ran toward the front door thinking that my kitchen was exploded!But then when I looked back, saw my tv monitor kissing the floor and one of the table's legs laid aside..
Relieved but shivering at the same time, I checked the kitchen again to make sure the loud noise wasnt coming from there..

Actually, the table that I put my small but bulky TV on is just a cheap, plastic table that I knew in the first place that it's gonna go down one day..but didnt bother to buy an appropriate one...so, in the end, it happened and i still feel the dizziness caused by the shock..

but Thank God the kitchen didnt explode!!

Bersopan la sikit

I was at a pharmacy this afternoon to buy some supplement and an SA came to me asking whether I needed any help. Well, I think he's doing a good job, unlike typical msians' SAs who would just stare and stand beside u..that's not the main point for this post..

After paying my stuff, I told him that I wanted to redeem a free stuff from some stickers collection that I had since i-dont-know-when..Then he went to the back store to get it..I waited for him at the cashier..then came a man nagging:

Man: mane ni takde orang jaga?nak bayar pon xde orang..nasib la selalu beli kat sini..

duuhh..he was only there at the cashier for one second and started nagging..at least he should have asked me first since I was waiting there..malas mau layan that man, I just waited there..Less than thirty secs later, the SA came with my free gift..he went to the cashier and the man nagged again...

Man: ape ni..saya tunggu lama kat sini takde org jaga..nasib la saya slalu beli kat sini..saya kenal sama bos kamu kat sini..

then i gave the way to that man so that the SA could serve him first..he smiled to that man and said, " maaf..saya kat belakang ambil ni"

Man: saya tegur ni untuk kebaikan jugak..kalo takde orang jaga takde orang mau beli nanti..

well, if u read, kinda sounds polite..but I heard the other way around..i'd feel irritated if i were the SA..the SA's smile faded..when it's time he served me i said, "jgn risau, u're doing a great job anyway"....

guess what, he smiled back..

anyway, this is not a tip to flirt with a guy..it's just a simple technique in handling people..

typical human being would only see the bad things despite of the good things that one person/thing has..and, do u know that it's rare(especially in my home country) hearing someone being appreciated, when everyone in this world 'craves' to be appreciated?think back...

i gave the man compliment sincerely since he deserved that..it's not a mere flatter..it's to appreciate that he's doing his job so that he didn't feel bad all day bout what happened earlier........

Home Alone...eh2, At Office Alone

2009-12-16T13:44:00.000+08:00

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

2009-11-24T10:42:00.000+08:00

"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

2009-11-17T17:25:00.000+08:00

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'

2009-11-16T11:48:00.000+08:00

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

2009-11-01T13:35:00.000+08:00

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

2009-11-01T04:45:00.000+08:00

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)

2009-09-02T13:57:00.002+08:00

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

2009-08-28T11:25:00.003+08:00

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

2009-08-18T10:11:00.001+08:00

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

2009-08-07T10:20:00.000+08:00

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!
