Today is 2011..Tomorrow is 2012

Salam 'alaik..

Alhamdulillah, today is 2011 and tomorrow insyaAllah 2012.But who knows if tomorrow would come.Just praying and hoping that tomorrow would come so that I would, we would, still be given the time to improve our iman and amal.

This morning,when I logged into my Facebook account, I read a lot of posts regarding new goals for 2012 posted by others. Is it just me who still have not think about it or what?huhu, seems like this exam has really distract my attention from 2012 matter.well,2011 is still here...so, hello to those who still haven't achieve what they want for this year ( I mean by 2011), you still have today.so, make full use of it to achieve your 2011 goals,at least you are one step ahead from your previous step,right?

Dear 2012,
I really cannot think of any goal that I want to achieve for 'you' right now. So, can I plan my 2012 goals later?maybe after the exam?even I cannot remember my 2011 goals.huhu...but at least I have made my goals for this year (Islamic year) during last maal hijrah.

I know that me myself needs a lot of improvements,but, here are some advice for celebrating this coming year, 2012. Goals are not to be planned and started only at the beginning of every new year.If you think it rationally, everyday we do have goals, right?So, plan your goals in accordance to your capability since that annually-planned goals would influence your daily goals.Do not be too overexcited with the coming of new year since we are not that sure of its coming.remember, that we do not know when is the Yaumul Qiyamah or the dooms day, and also the time of our death.well,remembering death is good as you will always try to improve yourself.maybe you could apply remembering death while planning your goals.Try to imagine that you only have 2012 left for you to live,what would you do?Is your provision for the Hereafter enough already?think about this twice, and even more.

I better stop right now.I have few chapters need to be done with including the delayed ones (the chapters that I planned to finish yesterday, but still have not revise them yet).By the way, my family is coming to Kuantan from KL today.Yayy!! Am praying for their safety throughout their journey here and back home.Also, always praying for their well being whenever and wherever they are.O Allah, please protect them from all kinds of evil!May with them here for this weekend, I will become more encouraged to study..insyaAllah..

Sudoku? tetttt......

Please read my previous post in order to understand this post...tq

Sudoku? TOTALLY CANNOT BE APPLIED.TOTALLY NOT EFFECTIVE. I become addicted to Sudoku already...huahuahuah..how can I focus on my study if it is this case???? seems like I have to get back to my very 1st method, alternating study with sleep... :(

Get sleepy due to ToO much of Reading?

Salam 'alaik..

Its exam season and I have my first paper tomorrow.Huhu,overall, I could say that all the courses that I take for this semester require a lot of reading and memorizing, not forgotten, understanding as well.

Due to too much of one-side-brain-usage only, I often easily get sleepy.It seems like my trials with my chocolate beads and coffee are not effective for me to get over the sleepiness.Instead, they are just making me even more sleepy just after I finish eating or drinking them.

So, I currently try to do Sudoku- after my chocolate stock is already in scarce,hahah..Just take a few minutes to complete a set of Sudoku while listening to calming music or preferably the Quranic verses-since we want to seek Allah's knowledge,so its better to listen to Quranic verses to purify our heart. After that, proceed with the reading. Repeat the same thing in every 10-15minutes of reading.

Well, it is till in the trial and not yet confirmed to be totally effective for me.But, if we think about the mechanisms, reading and completing Sudoku are like balancing the work of both sides of the brains.am I right?correct me if I am wrong..what about listening to the calming music or the Quranic verses?what are the significances? Well, researches proved that this kind of sound would enhance our brain's activity especially in understanding part.Plus, you will feel more calm and relax without stress with just that few minutes of break (by means of completing the Sudoku and listening to the Quranic verses)..I am trying it now..Lets try it together..and don't forget to put the trust in Allah since this method is just a mean, He is the One who provides the calmness and eliminates our sleepiness.. =)

Bi Taufiq wan-Najjah fil Imtihan,everyone!!

All great make-me-happy food

Salam 'alaik..

Guess what?I managed to go out for an outing yesterday.Yayy!! and again, Yayy!! cause I managed to eat both pizza and pasta that I have been craving for days before..huhu..plus, all at once..thanks to twin cause letting me to join them yesterday.believe it or not, I have spent almost RM100 just for FOOD, all within 2 and half hours of outing yesterday..haha..and nothing that is not food is bought yesterday.so, now I have a stock of chocolates in my room which I think is a lot but still, I think it would only last for, I guess, till tomorrow only.Hah!not even till the 1st exam paper!Luckily, I have told Ibu that my pocket money won't be enough till the end of the semester and she told me that Abah and her would topup my pocket money soon.if that so,I could topup my choc stock again after this.. :D -seriously, I think I am getting fatter, day by day... :(

And, I have just realized that I have plenty of friends here..and they are all great friends,if only I get to know them better.Being close to just some of them would only limit my point of view and I guess most people think the same also.

p/s someone asked me if I already have that 'someone'.well........everyone does.my 'someone' and me have been destined to be together as written in the Lauh Mahfuz. I just don't know who is that 'someone' yet :) perhaps, he is reading this post right now...

Seriously, I think I am....


HOMESICK!!!!



The Sun is Back

Salam 'alaik..

Alhamdulillah,I am still able to breath and write this post right now.hehe..but one thing for sure, I am happy today.thats why I love my usrah group so much.after each session,I will be happier than other days throughout the week and I feel more high spirited than before.that is the power of usrah... :)

Actually, its Allah who has made me feel this way.thanks to Allah since He gives me opportunities to recharge my Iman with those who always remind me of Him.Now, I know,why I felt so down throughout this week.hehe,it was my mistakes.I was too far away from Him.I was not really remember Him.Thus, He sent me some sadness and conflicts for me to return to Him back again.but I forgot to and that I am too busy blaming myself and thinking about the problems.That is why I felt extra extra down throughout the week.but alhamdulillah, last night I have my usrah session and we discussed a lot of things.

That's the importance of Tarbiyah(learning).it leads us to the right path again after we accidentally deviated due to the wonders of this world.But many think it negatively.we do a lot of wrong deeds and we know that they are wrong.but we tend to pretend to not knowing it since we are too afraid of letting go the comfort of this world.I often be like that too.But I try, bit by bit, to improve it.to leave them slowly.maybe you could try it too.feel bored without those wrong deeds?perhaps its time for you to start replacing all the wrong deeds with readings and finishing your assignments.or maybe start performing the supererogatory 'ibadah or amal.

Men + Free Time = Cause of sins

Because of the free time that we have, we tend to fill them with unnecessary things like movie-ing, dating, widen your gaze(instead of lowering it), etc..So, let us together improve ourselves,though it is hard, but it is not impossible.Let us,slowly...

Oh, SR!!

Salam 'alaik..

I planned to have my lunch at Secret Recipe this afternoon.At first,I planned to go there by myself,alone.but then, I thought that it would be nice to have someone to be with me.however, I could not find one.so, I cancelled my plan,though I still have the desire to go and have a meal there.unfortunately, cancelling the plan is so not a good idea since my heart keeps on screaming to go there.but then,I realized that, once again, I am becoming the old me, a lone ranger. :(

These days...

Salam 'alaik..

Yeayy,the mosque is now operating!now i really can feel the Islamic environment in the campus.no more confusing about when is the prayer time.the athan is so loud that it could wake me up every Fajr.its like another alarm for me in the morning..good...but I haven't been into the mosque yet.still finding the right time...

Last night, I went to the swimming pool at the sports complex.that was my 1st time there.guess what?the shallowest pool(for adults) is 1.4m deep.and my height is about 1.49m.Just imagine me in the pool,plus without knowing how to swim.I even have difficulties to make my self floating.hahahaa,poor Sherry, Iffah and Syazila.They have to help me in there.btw,I really enjoyed the night.it has really relieved my stress.Alhamdulillah..thanks korang for bringing me together with you gurlz.

Today,I have no class.well,actually I have a quiz this morning but its only for those who want to do it.I want to,at first.but I cannot manage to download the notes last night due to the extremely low Internet connection-excuse!So,I just simply forget my intention to do the quiz.hehe...Then,here I am while waiting for the downloads of my notes.well,its going to be final exam starting next week.and I have another presentation to go tomorrow..

p/s planning to meet the dentist after this..that would be my first time here also... :)

Subhanallah...He still loves me

Salam 'alaik..

I posted a post just now that tells the sadness that I currently have.But then, I deleted the post considering that its not the proper way to express my sadness.few minutes after that,an ukhti sent me a message that really soothed me and made me calm again.Subhanallah...its not the 1st time that I experience such incidence.Almost every time that I feel down and hopeless,it seems like Allah is always there to help me by sending someone to remind me back of Him and give me hope.Thank you Allah... =)

And also,few minutes after that, someone,an old friend, called me,proposed me to be a part of the mainboard of PERKIM UIA Kuantan that insyaAllah will be officially established next week.Another thing that bothers me right now...I was thinking to join other, new things in here.but such opportunity is so hard to get and probably,once in here.but,considering the tons of work that I have right now,I wonder if I could balance PERKIM and my studies and my life and my usrahs...may Allah guide me to choose the right decision for me..

Treat of the Night


Salam 'alaik.. =)

Dear 'You',
You have been so sweet...and kind to me..
Too sweet till I often feel guilty to you,
Guilty as I cannot be as sweet as you do,
Guilty as I am not so kind to you,
Guilty as I don't deserve such treats from you..

Jazakumullah khair kathira, 'You' deary...

You have treated me with lots of nice food,
And chocolates...mmmm,
I love chocolates,
And I do love people who give me chocolates,
Though its not always that I received chocolates as gifts,
So,
Dear 'You',
Thank you so much.....

Hi You, I miss You....

Salam 'alaik..

This post is dedicated to my close friend.I don't want to describe myself as your best friend or vice versa since I think I don't deserve that title.I don't know how to be one for you.I'm sorry that I don't know how to be there in times that you need me or during the leisure time. I just don't know.
Now, it seems like we are falling apart from each other.I know that you notice that, and just in case if you are not sure, I notice that too.I tried, many times, to make up our relationship. But maybe, the problem is me.I tend to be alone most of the time.There are so many things that you like but I don't like to do.The same for the other way around.but I always remind myself that we have a lot of similarities too,I guess..
How I wish we could be close again,though you seem to be closer to other people now.But I know,the problem is never about you..It is just me..I just do not know how...

Language of Buses =)

Salam 'alaik..

It is so funny to think that even buses have their own language among themselves. how? through the honks, of course! its like one-honk is for saying "Hi!", double-honks is for telling the other bus, "Hey,follow me!I'll show you the shortcut.." well,there might be many more..its kinda cute,isn't it?to think that such language exists...

We have improved technology, but not improved manners

Salam 'alaik...

i'm back after months being away from this blog.i miss blogging.seriously..but what makes me avoiding myself from blogging?i was too scared, scared that my words are not suitable, i might say wrong things, i might be addicted to blog..but why i begin to blog again,right now?bored, maybe..or i try to find a medium for me to express my feelings, my thoughts, my ideas on something.Facebook seems not safe anymore to be a place for me to let all my feelings out.there is no more privacy there.

What's new about me?

well, i haven't wrote anything here since i entered this semester.as i have mentioned in previous posts, i'm no longer the assistant batch leader.so, that means i have plenty of time to explore new things.yeah, i did explore few new stuffs and participated in organizing programs as well as joining activities.

This is not the purpose why i want to write this post today.i just want to express my sadness about an issue (sad but i'm listening to 'Senyum' song by Malique ft Najwa)..i think this issue is not rare.it is just we tend to ignore this issue by assuming that this current era should no longer apply this attitude.what attitude that i'm talking about?

Learning attitude..

Such a very general word-->'learning'. yes, it is indeed.it is also a big act...learning has strong relation with knowledge or 'ilm.and knowledge is something beneficial to us(if we learn the good one, of course).we are encouraged to FIND or SEEK for knowledge,aren't we?have we ever told to just WAIT for knowledge to come to you without any effort from you such as by coming towards the source of knowledge or trying to concentrate towards the lecture given?from what i know, NEVER.what am i going to say exactly?

Islam highlights the importance of knowledge and the act of learning. because through learning, one can acquire knowledge which somehow for me, is like the guidance from Allah SWT.well, as you know, even the knowledge that we have in our mind right now belongs to HIM.so, in order to acquire knowledge or hidayah, there are few manners /adab to be observed.even if one is not taught about the adab in his school or by his parents,still,these adab are something that you can think about them by using the rationale mind.it just involves logics.simply like that..

However, i'm so sad with the attitude of the society nowadays,regardless of the age and gender.We have lost the adab in public, we have lost the shyness in our daily acts (it is good to have at least a little shyness in one person,so that he will not simply act inappropriately).

Back to the learning issue, in order to gain knowledge, Islam told us to respect our teachers,regardless what we call them(Dr,Prof,Mdm,Ms,Mr,Sir, or simply Teacher).because the barakah is there,with their blessings together with their knowledge.These two should always come together.But, most of us only busy hunting for knowledge without noticing the need of blessings.we do not respect the teachers, expecting them to stick to what we want them to do.just imagine yourself to be on their shoes,what would you feel?someone asks something precious from you but with his face looking at somewhere else.it is RUDE, isn't it?are you a rude person?so please, respect your teacher no matter how bad the way he taught you as long as he taught good and beneficial knowledge,not the other way around.

i know, sometimes we get sleepy in class because of boring lectures-i experienced that several times as well.but, don't simply do other things unrelated during the lectures-well, at least do not show it to the lecturers.do it quietly..this could also respect the rest of the students who want to listen to the lectures.the best way is to try your best to stay awake.so, even though you cannot prevent yourself from fallen asleep, but at least, you have tried your best to stay awake.remember,in Islam, every act is counted,even the one that is as tiny as the atom.

Wallahualm.
