OH NO!!!!

For a moment of time, I thought I was not going to make, achieve my ambition that is... The serenity  of this place almost toying with me... Seems like blandishing me into absconding my studies... Plus with the zero study mood and parents supervision, its like pouring salt on an open wound... What a sad excuse for not studying for a week or so... Don't be surprise though, a week in university is like a month of high school... It is so precious but against all odds, I have wasted the free gold... Its like closing your eyes or ignoring Miss World... lol... Frankly I won't be shocked if my upcoming test result will not be up to par to what I need to obtain... Nevertheless, as my friend would say, the "roh genius" has finally paid me a visit and I now can go full throttle... Giving my best in what I should do in this moment only to pause for supplements (buka puasa)... 


For two weeks or so, I've been alone here in my room due to the fact my roommate has got his chance to go abroad and so he left early... Being alone is not as bad as it seems given that you are not scared of being alone that is... haha... You can hog down all the space which otherwise need too be shared... Plus, you will have all the time in the world to come and go into and out the room without annoying your roommate... This however have a downside to it... You see, my roommate is not a dumb person... Meaning he is very bright and losing him in terms of my studies is never a good thing... Prior to this, I would not be worried if I don't understand some parts of my studies because he can always help me patch up the loose ends... Now that he's gone I have to always go up to the sixth floor to join my friends for our study group session... During my free time, like now i would be waking up late ( 9 o'clock ) and enjoy the fresh morning air, get a shower and start studying... Similar to now, but without the blogging part... :)


Considering the fact that my TEST 2 is due in a week take a day or two, I should really cut this session short and stop here... So, till next time...

 When the sun rises, when the first ray of light shine, it seems like blasphemy against the tranquility of the night... 

Hectic life kicks in and the once amicable ambiance is no more...

Stained with the mechanical sound of inefficient machines

And then we come to sense its not at all blasphemy but a miraculous metamorphosis...

The sounds of Sitellas chirping, blandishment never beseeching but gentle greeting...

bellows and replies of students barely awake for brief moments....

Saying HELLO to possibly bright day ahead...

Brilliant blue widen, beckoning to be seen...


gush of sweet, fresh and unpolluted air


And then night came back claiming its share


and it is again

Trials and Ordeals of Life...

 بِسْــــمِ اﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم
Apakah manusia itu mengira bahwa mereka dibiarkan mengatakan: "Kami telah beriman", sedang mereka tidak diuji lagi? Qs.29 'Ankabuut:2


Today, in fact just few minutes ago I came across this verse from the Holy Quran and I thought I need to share this with all my fellow brothers and sisters... I may not give a very good interpretation of this verse but I'll try my best... It say ; Those who have been left beside thought and says: "We have been faithful (to the one and only God, Allah the exalted)" even though they have not been tested yet? Well, this is a more easier one to understand... They (the people) says that they have been faithful to God, but the thing is they have not been given any test to clarify and justify their faithfulness... But if we look closer to this verse, it doesn't really mean what it says, the thing is these people doesn't know that they are being tested the very moment... 


This verse has really struck me... Straight to my heart and conscious... Actually this verse can be directly used in my case... Enough till here... May we take the appropriate action to better ourselves and never think bad of Allah... May Allah bless my soul and bless this post... InsyaAllah... All things bad are from us and all things good comes from Allah s.w.t.


Till next time,

STRESS!!!!!!!!!

Who have never felt stress and fatigue?? If you know such a person, he's a liar... Slap that person 1 time... haha... Nah, seriously... Everyone feel stress and drawn to the wall every once in a while... As a result, we feel tired and suffer from fatigue after the stress had receded... Some time passes and that diabolical feeling come to pay a visit again and everything just seems never ending... For a student, this can significantly affect their studies and sometimes affect directly towards their mentality... Yeah, you know what I mean...

 So, to curb and tackle this issue, we often come in touch with psychologist or read a book about stress management at the least... 'How to Stop Worrying and Start Living' by Dale Carnegie or any other books might be in the victims shelf but does it really works?? Some do, but mostly are just a waste of time, books authored by people who think they know what they are writing... People who think they know the worst level of stress... And so with a sense of responsibility they write a book about curbing stress... And yet they failed, miserably.

But try this... When you are standing and you feel stress, sit... if you still feeling the stress, lie down... God wills, you will be at peace... For fellow brothers and sisters, just before sleeping read these citations... Allahuakbar, Alhamdulillah and SubhanAllah 33 times and repeat untill you fall asleep and insyaAllah tomorrow will be a much better day for you... Through some brief 'sleuthing' I came to know that Christians actually recite God's name too to decrease stress... So there you go, added strength to this theory, suitable for my fellow multi-religion readers... 

I know, this blog post is not much help considering there are many other brilliant blog posts which is better than this... For that I full heartedly appologise for lack of info and tips on how to tackle this age old issue but I have to defend myself... This is tips and ways that are effective and proven by continues practices by yours truly... In the end, its up to you people out there to believe and practice or not... 

Till next time...

Holiday...

Hello again... Its been long since I update this blog... Anyhow, Its my midsem break!!!! Yay!!! Sadly, its ending.... NOOO!!!! sigh

The insufficient time, mounting task that needs to be done and various plans to be conducted... Nevertheless, I think I've live my expectation of how this holiday should be... Balanced... Yesterday I went to my school... Yeah, not my old school but my school coz it will forever be my school... Had an awesome time hanging out with my buddies, sadly I din get the chance to meet my brothers of different parents... And they were having test too, so I can say that it was not the best time to go and visit the school... Regardless of that, I still manage to meet my dearest friends and had a noisy chat... Dominating the canteen... Typical of us... haha... My prior goal was to collect the school magazine which believe or not cost me RM25... So expensive but I think the editorial board / my friends did a job they can be proud of... Before that, I met and talked with all my teachers, glad they are doing well in the ever frustrating field of teaching, you know with the delinquents and all... Not that there are many in my school or anything... haha... One thing can be considered the odd ball though... While everyone is staying, Pn Jeya is LEAVING!!!! Noooooo.... What will happen to the school without her sarcasm... Aaahh, I miss her sarcasm, hits accurately and with no mercy... Got to love that... haha... All in all, I'm flattered that they still recognise me... I wish and pray that the school and all her aspiring sons and daughters a bright future and achieving greater heights... Amin...

Now, that the good news have been conveyed... Here comes the bad news, my dad had been admitted... I don't know what happened but according to him its normal, just this time it gone a step further... I was really shocked when my sis told me he was praying by sitting and not standing... I mean, thats really serious... So, after Subuh prayer my mum brought him to Pantai Hospital and he immediately got detained and admitted... That evening after i fetch my sis from school we both went to visit him... When we got there, he had been treated by the nimble hands of Dr. Tan... Now he's so much better than prior, thank God for that... But he still needs to stay in hospital for 2 more days... Frankly I think he's fine for another day, just a propaganda to make him stay longer and swelling the hospital bill... But you can never know right?? haha...

Alas, now he's back at home... Well, and happy coz he gets a week break from the doctor... I'm glad coz thats what he's been lacking since working in KL... During his stay at the hospital, many friends came to visit and even the Bandar Baru Tambun family came to visit... Well, some of them... Still, it was really great atmosphere... I always pray for my family and friends wellbeing... InsyaAllah...

So, thats my holiday so far... Going to play badminton if anything goes well tomorrow... Badly need some rigorous exercise to build back my body... haha... So, this is IT for the time being... Thanks for reading... Till next time...

Sunday...

Who doesn't love Sundays?? Catch that person, rope them and bring them to me and I'll convert them from hating to loving Sundays... haha... That was just a joke btw and I don't want to see a man roped in front of my room tomorrow... That would be so wrong... haha...


So, now we all know that Sundays are the most relaxing day of the week, what you do on Sundays?? What is your ideal Sundays?? Have you live your expectations of the perfect Sunday??  For me, I JUST DID!!! wow, it was divine and yet so simple... Ok, here goes... It was a cold morning here in PA... Me, being alone in the room because my roommate went back to his sister's house yesterday leaving me with my thermos... So I thought, lets make some tea... 
And I did, went to the 3rd floor to take some hot water from the water 'cooler'... I know, its kinda ironic to take hot water from a water cooler, had my own awkward time for a moment there... haha... Anyways, I went back to my room, tear 3 packs of express brown sugar, and Boh tea and chuck it in the ever so obedient thermos... haha... 


3 minutes later, its done!!! Perfectly brewed tea... haha... I open the windows letting the cold, moist cold air to enter... True enough it was the right thing to do... The refreshing cold air seems to accentuate and lift the humble cup of tea into a totally new level and it was exceptionally DIVINE!!! haha...


There I was, drinking a cup of tea while enjoying the tranquility of Sunday, insufflating the fresh, unpolluted air and gasping at the glimpse of sunrise... What a perfect Sunday...

Lets think...

'If we always do what we've always done, we will get what we've always got.' Adam Urbanski

What can we say about this quote? What do you understand from this words of wisdom? What can we learn from this? How this quote SHOULD affect and help alter our way of life to the better?

Before you answer any of this questions, do me a favor. Just seat tight and repeat the words 3 times vocally and another 3 times mentally. This might be somewhat tedious but just do it alright?? Done?? Ok...  Ok now, I'll help in elaboration of the quote and from there I hope anyone reading this can somehow relate to their life and at best, strive to change their way of life to the better...

Ok, so what can we say about this quote? Personally, I think it sells itself extremely well... The words are sown one by one with such intricacy and everything just falls into place ever so easily... Anyone can and will understand this quote the moment they lay their eyes on it... Its that simple and yet it brings a powerful and stern massage... This is so true, its ridiculous... haha... Ever heard people say, 'Well done, Captain Obvious'? Yeah, you can use it here... haha

Now, what do we understand from this so called words of wisdom?? HUH??? I don't think we'll have a clash of thoughts and perspectives today as the meaning is crystal clear... It can't be a any clearer than this... Change, or you'll get the same things as long as you do not change... Yes, those who do nothing will never commit a mistake, but do you want to be the one who do nothing and gain nothing??? Is it worth escaping mistakes just for the sake of it?? Life is dull without mistakes... Life is boring without risk... Life if nothing without the strong sense of awareness after being smacked in the face by failure after taking risk... Its ok to fail... Its ok to make mistakes... Learn and face it again and you will miss being placed on the losing side... 

Life is colourless at first look... It always need to be painted by a set of creativity to 'colourise' it... It needed that bit of risk taking and arduous task tagging along just to make it more vibrant... Just to give it the Million Dollar look... You know what they say, a little bit of risk does not kills you it builds you... Well, thats what I would say... haha... 

What we can learn from this?? It should be apparent by now that we NEED to do different things and not get stuck doing the same thing for the rest of our lives... Come one, you do not want t be the one doing the stamping all your life do you??? Take the initiative and DO different things.... BE different... Let's open our eyes, upgrade it to stereoscopic view from the old and outdated monoscopic view we once had... 

As for the last part, I think I should leave that to be... After all, it is individualistic... You think on your behalf and the same thing to me... So to end this unexpected post, here are two quotes I would like to give...

'We need to be the authors of our own life.' Peter Senge

Build our own free will and follows it diligently, be on our own path and be proud of it... Have this and you have a colourful life 

- Yours truly -
