10 Tabiat Perosak Otak

Diforwardkan oleh Ainee. Sekadar ingin berkongsi. Mudah-mudahan bermanfaat buat semua.

1. Tidak mengambil sarapan pagi
- Apabila seseorang tidak mengambil sarapan pagi, paras gula dalam darah akan menjadi rendah. Ini akan mengakibatkan kekurangan bekalan nutrisi pada otak dan menjadikannya kurang aktif.

2. Terlebih makan
- Ia akan membebankan pembuluh darah otak dan mengurangkan kuasa mental otak.

3. Perokok
- Asap rokok akan mengakibatkan sel-sel otak terjejas atau terbakar dan boleh mengakibatkan penyakit'Alzheimer'.

4. Penggunaan gula yang berlebihan
- Pengambilan gula secara berlebihan akan mengganggu penyerapan protein dan nutrisi. Selain daripada itu, ia akan mengganggu perkembangan otak yang sihat.

5. Pencemaran udara
- Otak adalah pengguna oksigen terbesar dalam badan manusia. Pencemaran udara boleh menyebabkan pengurangan bekalan oksigen ke otak dan keaktifan otak.

6. Terlebih tidur
- Tidur adalah bagus untuk merehatkan otak tetapi masa tidur yang panjang boleh mengakibatkan sel-sel otak kita mati.

7. Menutup muka ketika tidur
- Tidur sambil menutup muka akan mengakibatkan otak menerima lebih banyak karbon dioksida berbandingoksigen dan ini akan membawa kerosakan kepada otak.

8. Membiarkan otak bekerja semasa kita berada di dalam keadaan kurang sihat
- Bekerja semasa anda kurang sihat boleh mengurangkankeberkesanan otak dan juga membawa kerosakan kepadasel-sel otak.

9. Kurang berimiginasi
- Berfikir adalah satu cara terbaik untuk melatih otak kita. Kurangnya berimiginasi boleh menyebabkan tahap kecerdasan/keaktifan otak menurun.

10. Jarang berfikir
- Jarang berfikir akan menyebabkan otak kita kurang aktif. Oleh itu, perbincangan yang membina boleh menambah keberkesanan kecerdasan otak kita.

Segan untuk mengaku. Tetapi semakin hari mengenal hakikat diri semakin malu dengan kenangan masa lepas. Saat itu pegangan hidup adalah agama sebagai suatu kepercayaan dan ibadah tapi pada masa yang sama jahiliyah melingkari di segenap sudut kehidupan. Sekarang terbukti kata-kata seorang sahabat 'jahiliyyah apabila semakin banyak ditinggalkan, semakin kita faham apa itu jahiliyyah sebenarnya.' Meski belum bebas 100% dari belenggu tersebut, tetapi sangat bersyukur diberi peluang mengenali deen yang sebenar.

Di tempat itu aku kenal hakikat diri. Di tempat itu aku kenal kemanisan ukhuwah. Alhamdulillah, kini terasa aku melihat kehidupan dari sudut yang berbeza tidak lagi sebagaimana masa lalu. Ibarat melihat ikan-ikan cantik di dalam akuarium. Bebas berenang tetapi tidak dapat keluar dari akuarium itu menikmati keindahan yang sebenar di luar akuarium tersebut. Syukur aku bukan lagi ikan-ikan tersebut.

p/s: dalam usaha membanteras penyakit malas... susah sungguh nak buang penyakit yang satu ini. 5 assignments, 2 presentations to go!

Ya Allah, kukuhkan langkahku di jalan ini.

Sujud ku hamba-Mu yang kerdil ini, menghadap Mu dalam kembara di bumi asing ini,

mengukuhkan lagi keyakinanku yang Allah itu Maha Berkehendak.

Janganlah ditarik nikmat termahal ini.

Cukuplah tahun-tahun lampau aku hilang Mu.

Aku tak sanggup lagi, Ya Allah.

when you think the whole world is against you..

Cho Seung Hui. The tragedy in Virginia Tech that killed 32 people reflects the aggressive and violent answer to the oppression experienced by someone whose role and existence is not realised by the society.

Unfortunately, among Muslims we have some people trying to be like Cho. They are so overwhelmed with this belief that the whole world is against them. Therefore, they started to seclude themselves from people either in distance or actions. They think being different (not in accordance with the teachings of the religion) is cool. They idolise wrong figure. The best example would be Kurt Cobain from the band Nirvana who commit suicide somewhere around early 90s. He is regarded by this trying-to-be-different people as their role model. So, these so called Muslims follow his thinking, even worse his way of life. Therefore, they opt for drugs as a way to ease tension and depression. I felt disturbed by these type of people as for me they are somewhat selfish and vain. As if this whole world is all about you. We don't even have time to discuss 24/7 about your life. Why trying to be different in a wrong way? People do not even bother to perceive that as cool or might not even realise it. People have their own life to look after to and don't be angry when there is someone telling you that what you did is wrong as it is the responsibility of a human. It's not like we want to meddle in your bussiness but that's what God asks us to do.

Well, what is the thing with 'Punk for life'.. 'Ska lover', and all things like such. It's a wonder that these people thinks this rubbish ideology is the best suits for a weirdo like them. What a loser. big time! Have not what happens in the Virginia Tech tragedy opens up our mind that how the advent of such ideology which is the society is not the best example for us to be followed. On the surface they look great but beneath it they lacks values and cures for humanity. Why still bother to embrace those thinking?

The answer and cure to this disease is the Quran. The human manual. You laugh at people who refers to the Quran as one way to seek peace of mind, but have you ever considered the obvious fact that you are created by the writer of the manual and it is certain that one day we will be returned to Him. It's like you fix your laptop using the refrigerator's manual, and the inventor of the laptop tells you to use the manuals that he has provided but you laugh and refuse to use the refrigerator's manual and still insists of using the refrigerator's manual. Hah, then you're a real weirdo.

Well, I talk about myself actually. I used to embrace this type of thinking. The thinking I obtained from the rock music that I listened to. Maybe I followed not in appearance but still the 'percikan ada skit-skit'. You know those rock lyrics always about being obsessive about your ownself and that it is okay to be different in a bad way. That it is good and cool to be something that is unacceptable by the society. However, I don't think that is weird anymore. I have friends who are obsessed about Muse coming to Malaysia. Out of nowhere we have lots of people in Malaysia who claims to be one fanatic muse fan. One funny thing is there is also this people who think that it is one great loss for those who did not go to the concert, as they're here in Malaysia like once in 10 years. Oh negaraku! Tempat tumpahnya darahku. When I told them in Sydney, we have lots of big name in entertaiment industry come to Sydney for concerts, it's like one bizarre thing that I do not go to their concert. Hey, siapa mereka? They don't deserve my scholarship money.

I'm not saying that going to concert makes you a bad people (even though it is obviously wrong). It is just to exemplify that how strange we define coolness. Sad but true but that is the reality in Malaysia. Thank God that I found the enlightenment that how many years of my life I played with toys. Now I feel like an adult watching these kids but an adult physically enjoy playing with their toys. How I wish I can go to them and grab those toys and throw it all away. As toys are just for kids. Indeed I can and I should. It's all in ur mind. And with Allah's help, everything is possible.

NZ

It's my last 2 days in NZ. I think I really enjoyed this trip despite the obstacles occured throughout the journey. All these experiences are priceless. Too many things to jot down here which caused laziness that prevents me from writing them all. NZ is very beautiful. Subhanallah. But one thing for sure, from doing all the activites, I learned one great lesson, which is the importance of listening and following what is being instructed by the one who leads you. I've encountered too many problems as a result of my own mistakes not listening attentively to what the instructor asked us to do. Being in those critical situation reminds me of what Kak Rina told us the other day in a session which is, in an organisation, it is crucial that everyone have a leader in which every member in the organisation obey his command. It will be one troublesome organisation if the members of the group refuse to follow his command. This is simply what happened to me. As I didn't follow the instructions, I caused trouble to my group member. For example, I did a black water rafting activity, which is quite risky. The instructor had already informed us the do's and don'ts of the activity. However, it's like 'masuk telinga kiri, keluar telinga kanan'. Soon after that lots of problems befell on me. It's all rooted from my own mistakes not following the guidelines by the leader. The same thing happened during the quad biking activity. As I have the tendency to become nervous, clumsy, gelabah etc, in one incident, I forgot one instruction by the tour guide, which is to hold on to the bike each time when you feel like it went out of control. Being scared but at the same time excited, I accelerated the bike at its highest level when going up to a hill which later caused to bike to move too fast and I fell to the ground with the bike. But alhamdulillah, the huge bike didn't fell on me which I can't imagine what's to become of me if that really happens. One thing for sure, the possibility of me to not falling out of the bike will be less if I hold on to the bike. Well, all these are lessons that taught me that how bad the consequences would be if I refuse to listen to the instructions by the one who leads me. I promise myself that I want to improve on this. This is only the impact of not obeying the leader. But what about one group with no leader at all? It's more terrible and hazardous, isnt it? Hurm. Btw I miss OZ. Orang-orang kampung, kami pulang lagi 2 hari. Tunggu.

the verge of a new dawn?

Outing with friends Naya and Fariza when suddenly one Malaysian Chinese at his early 60s approached us and he had met Naya before. Excited about meeting Malaysians, he then invited us to chat about political issues especially in Malaysia. Perhaps he wants to know more about the opinion and the thinking of us students who are exposed to the situation outside Malaysia. I think the conversation was good and quite thought provoking.But the part that strikes me the most when he mentioned that:

"there is no civilization that lasts. Look at the Roman empire and such, none of it exists for more than a thousand years. Every civilization will go through a downfall. Like now, we have the US as the civilization that rules the world, but sooner or later they will experience this downfall. No matter how they try to diminish Islam, never they will be able to do that. As instead of weakening, Islam is growing everywhere now. So, since Bush cannot be a candidate for the presidency chair in the next election, his brother Jeffrey Bush will compete for it. If the Republican wins, billions of money will again be wasted for the Iraq war. This means a sign for the downfall of America as they spent most of the money on those fruitless acts in the name of fighting against terrorism."

So does that mean we have to pray for the Republican's victory in the next election? But can we stand seeing more and more Muslims in Iraq especially children suffers the consequence of the war? Or if the democrat wins, does this signals a new light for the Iraqi people and at the same time will help in the betterment of the situation in the middle east, (especially Palestine) as well? I'm quite sure most of us deem for the victory on the Democrat's side, but how assured are we that this will help to improve the situation in Iraq and all Muslim countries as well. There's a saying, "whatever you think, think the opposite". Perhaps the old man is right. Republican have to win, if we think about it in the opposite way. I know by just writing about this won't contribute much in achieving our aim to change the world. But this old man makes me reflect. I never think of this before.

But it's all in Allah's hands. He destroyed lots of nations before. The 'Aad, the Thamud, the Noah people. Allah will had preserved them if He want to but it didn't happened. The only thing remains is their city as a sign for us to ponder. When Allah says, "Be", then there's nothing that can stop the phenomena.

"And how many a city which was unjust have We shattered and produced after it another people [21:11]."

Like they say, life is like a wheel. One moment you'll be at down, and there are moments you'll be up again. And so does the civilization. Like Islam which used to rule the world, it is not possible that it will experience its glory again. We'll see in 600 years from now and maybe less? who knows. Never ever say that we can't as it is something that Allah has promised :) It's up to us whether to be part of those who contribute to the glory or be just like one of the bubbles in the sea, exists in a great amount of numbers but don't really benefit much.It's our choice!

...

Whenever I have conversations with my mum and the rest of family members, I realise that they still treat me as if I was in high school. Actually in IPBA, I still behave like someone in high school. I don't know whether it's a sign of maturity or not :p, but each time I speak like the way I am now, my sis will think that I am joking. Like it's so unnatural of me to talk to her like that. I don't know, but I reckon it should be a normal thing for I am now 22 (not yet, but this 11 April :p). I am now an adult. I just feel that it is not really appropriate to talk like a teenager. Normal teenager, I mean. I know most of you would also agree that we have to change the way we communicate as we reach this stage of life. Although I may not really have changed the way I speak 100%, I just feel like my parents didn't realise that just like them i also have to go through an aging process physically and so does my mentality :p. Maybe we've been departed for more than a year, that they still picture me as the same person that they last saw a year ago. Hurm whatever it is, my parents is coming this 1st of June. Can't wait! My dad keep saying how he really wanna meet me. Seriousy, they haven't seen me for more than a year. We never even web-caming. It would be like a jejak kasih thingy, I guess. Well, easter break is just around the corner. Time for my 'cuti-cuti new zealand'. Hope everything planned for the trip will work accordingly. Insya-Allah. Pray that we will arrive there safely :)

i love Allah

Love changes bitterness into sweetness,
sand into gold,
turbidity into clarity,
pain into a remedy,
prison into a garden,
illness into a blessing,
and oppression into mercy.
It softens iron,
melts stone,
resurrects the deceased,
and breathes life into it.
Love is a wing with which the physically heavy man flies
so high that he can reach the most unreachable places
It will not matter if Allah increases the wealth
and widens the kingdom o fthe slaves of worldly pleasures and adornments,
for we do no need any of them
we are completely attached
to the kingdom of love that never perishes or fade away....!
O Love! May Allah bless you!
You are the doctor of my ilnesses and pains
and the remedy of my fear and pride.
You are my experienced physician that removes all my troubles!
-Jalaludin Rumi

"The most beautiful thing in the world cannot be seen nor be touched. It must be felt with the heart."

Bilakah kita akan bertemu? Rindu...
Mujurlah Kau masih sudi menyentuh hati ini...
Dengan kelembutan sentuhan itu masih ku mampu tersenyum hingga saat ini...
Alhamdulillah
Ya Rahman, Ya Rahim.
