Writing let's make it a habit

2011-12-05T17:47:00.002+11:00

I hate the fact that the year 2011 is the year I wrote the least.. As 2012 is about to begin in 3 more weeks I hope I to write more and more next year as only through writing I reflect on wn self.

What I Need The Most

2011-01-17T21:20:00.004+11:00

Ada segolongan umat manusia, begitu mencintai Allah hinggakan sebarang ujian, musibah diterima dengan penuh rasa bahagia. Cinta kepada Allah begitu mendalam hingga mereka redha dan gembira menerima apa sahaja yang ditentukan oleh Tuhan. Ini dibuktikan dalam hadis Rasulullah SAW yang bermaksud:“Allah sungguh kagum kepada orang mukmin, apabila menerima nikmat ia bersyukur dan apabila ditimpa

My Inspiration

2011-01-06T02:24:00.003+11:00

It's day 4 of 2011 school year and I am glad so far everything is good. This year I was appointed to be Penyelaras Tingkatan 5, guru kelas, Head Panel of English, Pen S/U Disiplin, Warden Asrama and there are another 2 or 3. One tough year I bet as one English teacher leaving us, and I am still teaching PMR and SPM. Despite this amount of work, I am grateful to Allah for giving me strength to

"It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart.”

2011-01-03T04:44:00.005+11:00

I always adore people with a great personality. I've been stalking few hijabi bloggers and I envy them not only for their beauty, sense of fashion but their personality. And I have many friends especially from IPBA whom I adore for the way the carry themselves. I wish I have such personality to win over my students' hearts without much effort. To me, having great personality is all about

Hello 2011!

2010-12-28T19:24:00.004+11:00

ATM, I am dreaming of living in a small comfortable house. After getting back from work, it will be raining outside and I'll cook anything I like and have my favorite cup of coffee. I'll spend the moment reading classics, something that I always want to do but I don't have time to. It sounds so boring, I know. But if you are in my shoes you will understand why. I stay at a hostel where I have to

Defining Wisdom

Hoping to impress his master, a student of the occult whom I know read some manuals on magic and decided to buy the materials mentioned in the texts. With considerable difficulty he managed to find a certain type of incense, some talismans, a wooden structure with sacred characters written in an established order.When we were having breakfast together with his master, the latter commented:“Do you

I'm not a good person. I don't know whether I have found the self that I've been looking for or the fact that I have found her, but it is something that I've lost. I'm rude. Really bad at managing anger. Impatient. Emotional. Irresponsible.As I'm getting older I become 'badder'.. I know the answers to all these but my, change is hard. Sometimes I think I need a change in the environment or maybe

Mensyurgakan Neraka

2010-07-01T15:42:00.003+10:30

Dunia ini bukan syurga. Tetapi magiknya, ada segelintir hamba-hamba Tuhan yang mampu menjadikan dunia yang penuh dengan kepahitan kepada syurga yang indah. Dunia mempersembahkan kepada mereka segala perkara-perkara yang tidak mereka gemari, tetapi mereka masih mampu tersenyum. Saya bukan orang ini. Saya ingin seboleh mungkin menanggapi neraka yang saya miliki sebagai sebuah syurga yang indah.

So, Isreal is at it again. It is a thing that the Flotilla activists have expected. They know that they will be welcomed this way. We all know it too well.Allah has explained in great detail in the holy Koran about their characteristics and the fact that they will cause corruption twice. And we are living in the era where that second corruption by the Zionists occurs. A thing which I deem is of

REDHA is the answer

'Sebenarnya apa yang berlaku dan apa yang orang lain kata tidak memberi sebarang kesan. Perkara yang memberi kesan adalah apa yang diri sendiri tekankan kepada dirinya. Benda-benda alam, kejadian dan peristiwa tidak mampu menekan jiwa seseorang. Orang itulah yang menekan jiwanya sendiri.'Saya tercari-cari jawapan di sebalik kekosongan jiwa yang melanda dengan begitu dasyhat kebelakangan

emotionally independent

2010-04-26T20:51:00.006+10:30

Stephen Covey said that 'Interdependence is better than independence.' I don't think so. I think it's better that we are left to be emotionally independent but at the same time giving as much love as possible without expecting nothing in return for a person who is emotionally independent, is able to stand on her own feet. She knows that a human-being is not the only sole reason to make her happy.

My Remedy

2010-04-19T16:12:00.003+10:30

One important thing that I really need to remain strong in this profession is support.I've read the entries written by friends of the same career and I thank Allah for they made me feel better and I don't feel like I'm doing this alone. Thanks dear friends for sharing your stories. Those are my strengths.:)'The universe only makes sense when it is shared with someone else."

We might be the generation that sees Armageddon?

2010-04-19T13:06:00.005+10:30

Begitu banyak jangkaan yang mengatakan kita adalah generasi yang akan menyaksikan perang 'armageddon'. Sejauhmana kebenaran itu, hanya Allah yang mengetahui. Ini turut diakui oleh Ronald Reagen.Berdasarkan apa yang berlaku dalam situasi politik dunia kala ini, Amerika yang tegar mempertahankan Zionis, Iran yang tidak habis-habis diancam akan diserang, dan pihak Zionis yang bertungkus-lumus

Pandangan Sempit

Melarikan diri dari kenyataan bukannya mudah. Adat hidup adalah, kenyataan itu sesuatu yang harus dihadapi.Aku ingin lari. Hipokrasi berlegar di sekelilingku. Duniaku yang dulunya aku pandang positif dari segenap segi, ibarat kanak-kanak 'innocent' kini ku anggap pentas yang penuh dengan boneka dan pelakon-pelakon.

i don't actually mind the heavy, burdening workload as long as I have support and the responsibility is shared.This year, I feel like I do things alone. What a stressful year! The joy of working is not as intense as last year for there was someone to help me. Now, the situation has changed perhaps because I'm not new anymore.Fortunately, there are always students, who keep me motivated. For their

A new perspective learnt,If we are to embrace the lateral thinking of the likes of Hume, Immanuel Kant etc. we will have many different versions of Islam like what happened to certain religion.But we embrace the vertical thinking~ we just cannot question everything.Everything is not meant for us to be critical of.Something must be accepted and be memorised by heart. That's how the teaching of

Stop thinking, start cleaning

2010-03-12T02:20:00.004+11:00

It feels great to clean the whole house. It's kind of theraphy for stress. Seeing from our own naked eyes, there is nothing really special about the success of cleaning the house but we do realise that it gives a certain feeling so great than even when our physical body is worn out, our mind & soul don't.. they are rejuvenated.The philosophy behind doing this cleaning is in itself huge. It

I love you people. Well, I'm not going to mention their names.You come across people that make impact in your life. I think every people that we meet has their own impact in our life be it big or small.My love goes out to those who have made big impact in me. Thank you for you are the person who made me the way I am today. And to people whom in the process of affecting my life through their daily

I want to paint the world together with you

2010-03-03T19:56:00.003+11:00

Whenever I look at my vivacious, happy, cheerful students, my heart sinks. I am so ashamed of myself that I may not be as happy as them. They are the young people who have entrusted me to shape and paint them using whatever colour I love too.They believe in me. I can feel it.People, looks can be deceiving. I am surprised by the fact that the students whom I consider come from a well-established

Somehow this soul will leave this body,no matter how ugly or beautiful the body is...returning to its Owner...departing from all those that we've met while the soul is inside this body..So, grieving over the lost of anyone we encounter in this physical material world is a meaningless actfor when the soul departs from the body,its only want is to meet its Creator,its sole Owner in a manner as

I am always excited about Dan Brown and at school, my colleague and I like to use some of his ideas for our English treasure hunt! It's crazy and mind-boggling to the students who are not familiar with Dan Brown or anything which has got to do with breaking code and symbol but it has impacts on them and it can be seen on their excited faces after breaking the code that we made for the game! Ok.

I envy those who can speak more than 2 languages. Most Malaysian who are not Malay are trilingual. Jeles. To me being a bilingual is not enough. I should know at least three languages. So, I hope I will have enough time and courage to sharpen my arabic. I have a Pak Arab teaching arabic at my school and many other teachers who can speak Arabic very well. So I hope they will be of a great help.Why

I must, by all means free myself from this prison as described by this man who came up with theories without any experiment.

He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from

Sekali-sekala bicara soal cinta. Kegemaranku menatap profile Paolo Coehlo di facebook gara-gara qoutenya yang begitu bernas sekali. Bukan suatu yang menghairankan kerana beliau antara Peng'tweet' paling popular di dunia kala ini. Tiada niat untuk bercerita lebih lanjut tentang siapa beliau, semua sudah kenal ku kira cuma mahu berkongsi ini"In real love you want the other person's good. In

The most difficult profession

2009-11-12T12:11:00.005+11:00

Just face it! Teaching profession can at times make you feel so not good about yourself. All my life I dream of being a great person.. Someone great benefits a great amount of people whose presence is of an utmost importance but the truth is I feel so not good about myself when I see my students display insignificant improvement in terms of their academic and attitude.. I just wish that those

Scholars are supposed to make the world better

2009-10-26T15:54:00.004+11:00

A debate on how irrelevant the ranking of the universities in terms of their contribution to the world, especially those living in the third world countries brings me to the attention of the truth that education should not be regarded with such a high esteem if it does not affect the condition of the people at large. 95% of the top universities listed are from the countries whom their citizens

How I miss the chance the write regularly just like I used to do..My life has been fantastic but I do miss the old times, the times where I had all the time in the world to write and to read as much as I can.. Those years were the time that I think I tried the very best I can to develop my mind.. to improve the way I see things and to change my perspectives about a lot of things..Now, I don't

Other speech that I wrote for a speech compWE CAN’T ALWAYS BUILD THE FUTURE FOR OUR YOUTH BUT WE CAN BUILD THE YOUTH FOR THE FUTURE Youth is always referred as a group of people who is rebellious, problematic and immature. When we mentioned unhealthy activities such as mat rempit, drug addicts and many more, teenagers will always be the first group to be associated with those crimes. Is this

Writing on developing youth for a speech competition, can't help but think how 'lucky' i am.. One of the greatest companions once said it takes 10 youth to change to world as long as they are given proper education.. and here i am living with 500+ youths.. perhaps i can actually rock the galaxy.. but it seems i haven't done much.

I've been telling myself the idea of life is..it is all YOURS and you should not wasting time worrying and disappointed over something which is not ur own.. I have this habit of following my own instinct instead of logic.. I'm at times way too carefree.. It's good but at times it's not under certain circumstances. I choose to follow logic. After all aren't we ordered to use our brain to think?
