India Chapter: Part4

A minute ago, baru lepas call rumah. Tak ada nak cakap apa sangat pun, just nak sembang-sembang dengan family. Paling best cakap dengan Danial. Danial yang suka merajuk, and along yang suka buat Danial merajuk. HAHAHAHA.

Last night, ada MMMC annual dinner. Ada awards untuk Distinction students and 100% attendance *senyum* (ada makna). When I think about it, aku tak pernah pun dapat award gempak-gempak untuk academic sejak dari sekolah rendah, tapi sejak dari sekolah rendah gak la aku asyik berangan bila la dapat naik pentas amik award-award special macam tu. Keep dreaming and make reality. InshaAllah akan ada masa dia nanti.

Last Tuesday, tetiba di serang DEMAM... Nasib baik cepat-cepat amik ubat, so lepas mendapat rehat/tido yang lebih, akhirnya Berjaya survive untuk terus hidup pada keesokkan harinya. (^_^).

Last week baru lepas Block exam. Nak kata susah sangat tak juga, senang pun tak juga. Tapi yang pasti aku sangat sangat sangat ‘berdebar-debar’ tunggu result nak kuar. Macam dah bleh agak je~. Kalau prediction aku ni salah, nanti ada satu post pasal block exam plak. Hehehe.

Last month, kitorg (aku, farid, syazwan, redza) sibuk cari rumah sebab after 6 months, ktorg kene move out duduk luar. Cari punya cari jumpa la satu rumah baru yang lawa dan sangat besar. Mula-mula macam tak nak sewa sebab mahal sangat, tapi bagi aku ok la sebab sorang nak satu bilik kan so sacrifice sikit la. Benda last yang aku nak story, aku sudah ada vespa!!! Hahaha. Tak pernah terfikir aku akan bawak vespa. Cerita pasal vespa pun akan ada dalam post yang akan datang. *smile*

Relakskan mata...

Aduih... Penat mata duduk baca buku... So I surf the net cari gambar-gambar best untuk cuci mata... And tada!!

Suke gambar yang pertama sebab tak pernah tengok sawah yang luas. Teringin nak tido kat pondok kat sawah tu.

Suke gambar yang kedua, sebab rasa tenang je. Macam boleh dengar bunyi air sungai mengalir.

Seronok kalau ada rumah tepi sawah, and kat belakang rumah pulak tu ada sungai. (^_^)

Walk The Talk

Today (13/11/2009) our college received a visit from the Director General of Health, Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Dr. Hj. Mohd Ismail Bin Merican. He is very friendly I tell you. This morning during our dissection, he came to the dissection hall observing the anatomy class. Later after the break around 11am we went to Valley View Hotel where he’s addressing all the Malaysian students of Manipal University. Earlier I thought not to come for the speech because I have severe leg pain. Then I decided better to go la~ Bila lagi nak dapat can jumpa VIP from Malaysia datang Manipal. I like his speech or should I say story very very much. He gave us advice from his own experience, and together with his enthusiasm his speech really inspired everyone in the hall. Not to forget his sense of humour really makes the audience ‘alive’.

I like this kind of people. They give advice base on their own experience, rather than certain people who give advice just from their reading without any experience and yet they said ‘ I know how you feel’. Ever heard the term ‘Book smart’ and ‘Street smart’. ‘Book smart’ is more like he knows lot of facts, but he lacks of clinical skill or survival skill or even interpersonal skill. ‘Street smart’ this kind of person, you put him anywhere on the globe he knows how survive.

Thank god, I had a wonderful childhood memory with my dad. I helped him washed his car, I helped him when he worked with his tools; saw, drill, hammer (some people don’t even know how to hold hammer correctly). I helped him when he changed the bulb, I learned from him how to make ‘bara’ for BBQ. Thank god I have my mom, who is really strict about cleanliness, tidiness and the importance of being able to do things on your own. My family, my friends and the environment are my ‘teachers’ in the real world.

Saya bukan nak memperlekehkan sesiapa, sekadar untuk renungan bersama. Seorang yang mendapat pendidikan agama yang tinggi, sentiasa menyampaikan pesanan kepada orang di sekelilingnya tetapi in real life dia sendiri tidak pedulikan perasaan orang lain. ‘Cakap tak serupa bikin’. Sebab itu saya lebih mengagumi orang yang menggunakan pendekatan ‘kepimpinan melalui teladan’ or ‘berdakwah melalui teladan’ a role model. Say Less Act More.

Why am I telling all this, the other day I had a chat with a non-muslim friend. He asked me if I ever try Bak Kut Teh. He said to me, “you should try la bro, banyak Melayu in my area sudah try.” Dalam hati saya terdetik, no wonder they dare to say bad things about us these days. Sometimes we are the one who make fun with the ‘rules’ and when others say bad things about it, we argue with them acting like we care.

Senang cerita macam ini la, orang bagi you jaga bola yang baru dibeli dan dia kata jangan sepak bola itu. You jenis yang kepala batu, so you sesuka hati sepak bola tu. Then orang lain datang dan sepak bola tu sesuka hati , lepastu you marah dia and kata ‘tuan punya bola tak kasi sepak bola ini’. What is this!!?? You guys are clever than me. Think.

India Chapter: Part3

Sejak duduk kat India ni, 2 barang aku yang sangat berharga dah rosak. The first one is my shoes. My dad bought it for me for the IB graduation day. Baru minggu lepas cermin mata putih pulak hilang satu tangkai. We all adik-beradik memang dah dididik supaya jaga barang elok-elok. Lagi-lagi kalau barang tu mak atau abah yang belikan rase macam teramat-amat tinggi la nilai barang tu. Itu yang bila kasut and spect rosak rasa down je, susah nak dapat kan.

Down tak lama pun. Last week, I bought myself an IPod nano. HAPPY. Kasut pun dah hantar repair, and it is now good as new. DOUBLE HAPPY. Spect baru pun dah buat and dah siap pun, color still the same, white. TRIPLE HAPPY. Kasut dah ok, spect pun dah ok, Ipod dah ada (untuk study kat foodcourt), table lamp pun dah ade (untuk study kat bilik), yang tinggal sekarang cuma nak study je.

NEW SPECT + NEW IPod = ???

Kita tengok nanti apa hasilnya. “Learning should be fun right, so chill la wei~”. Jangan duk asyik study sampai diri tak terurus, bilik bersepah, baju tak bersgosok. Orang macam ini kalau ada PhD pun aku tak heran. Ada kaitan ke semua tu?? Bagi aku ada, tak tau la apa orang lain kata. Lain orang lain pendapat. Korang ada akal kan, so use your head not your kepala lutut.

Sign of weakness???

I haven’t been crying for quite some time, because I don’t want them, those who I care the most to worry about me.

I don’t want them to see the other side of me, my weakness I should say... because one day, I’ll be the one who is going to look after them. I have to be strong. A ‘leader’ should be bold and invincible.

For the past few months, I cried. Twice. Both times, I was thinking of someone. Is it a sign of weakness? “Men don’t cry” this is what they said.

Now I know why it is man alone who laughs. He alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.

Guys and girls.. If you want to cry, don't cry because your girlfriend/boyfriend left you. That is the stupidest thing to do and you just 'wasting' your tears.

For the sake of...

Kita selalu mendengar dan melihat perbandingan yang dibuat antara satu individu dengan individu yang lain, satu kumpulan dengan kumpulan yang lain, satu organisasi dengan organisasi yang lain, satu Negara dengan Negara yang lain, satu budaya dengan budaya yang lain, satu agama dengan agama yang lain.

Saya lebih tertarik dengan perbandingan antara individu kerana perkara ini yang sering kita alami dan kadang-kala kita sendiri melakukannya sama ada secara sedar atau tidak sedar.

Comparison atau perbandingan ini boleh membawa kepada kebaikkan dan juga keburukkan. Then again, it depends on how the person wants to evaluate it. “Buang yang keruh, ambil yang jernih” tapi kadang-kadang itu, yang keruh juga nak diambil lebih. Terpulanglah~

Semasa saya masih di bangku sekolah rendah, emak selalu membandingkan saya dengan akak “tengok along, belajar rajin, periksa selalu dapat nombor satu, angah dapat nombor 6.” Selalu sangat mak bandingkan saya dengan akak, dan sebab saya tak suka dibandingkan saya cabar diri saya untuk ‘atasi’ pencapaian akak. Sejak dari sekolah rendah hingga ke tingkatan 3 saya jadikan akak saya sebagai penanda aras yang perlu saya atasi, dialah motivasi saya.

Kemudian bila saya masuk tingkatan 4, saya merasakan apabila kita terlalu ikutkan sangat ‘perbandingan’ yang dibuat, ia akan jadikan kita seorang yang hanya tertumpu pada suatu perkara sahaja. Kalau orang bandingkan kita dengan orang pandai, janganlah sampai 24/7 duduk menghadap buku. Kalau orang bandingkan kita dengan sportsman, janganlah sampai pelajaran diabaikan. Kalau bandingkan kita denga artis, janganlah sampai didikan agama semua kita tolak tepi. Sebab itu ISLAM sendiri mengajar kita bersederhana dalam semua perkara.

‘Apabila kita kejar dunia, akhirat akan lari daripada kita. Apabila kita kejar akhirat, dunia akan tunduk kepada kita’. Satu kata pujangga yang boleh kita renung-renungkan. When you do something, do it for the sake of IBADAH. Nasihat untuk diri saya yang kadang-kadang lalai.

India Chapter: Part2

It has been more than one month of my stay in India. So far everything just fine, I kept telling people the same answer whenever they asked me “how’s India?” What about the food?? Here they also have Nasi Goreng Kampung, Nasi Pattaya, Mee Goreng and Nasi Campur, but my favourite meal so far is Manipal Canteen's Butter Nan & Tandoori Chicken. =)

Sports?? I play futsal whenever I feel like playing, otherwise I just go for a walk. Weekend InshaAllah if there is nothing to do, I’ll go jogging.

Study?? Study ok lar~ I’m not the type that go to library to study. Most of the times, I study with my friend at the Food Court. For certain people, it is not a convenient place to study. Too much noise!! Sometimes it can be really distracting, but better than in my room. Too quiet, I start study at 8.00pm and after half an hour, I already feel sleepy. Hahahaha. I plan to buy an Ipod Nano or maybe a PSP. Which one is better huh??

Classmates?? As usual, the typical Khairul who always have problem remembering people’s name. *Gomennasai* I only know the name of those who are the same table as me in the dissection hall, and those who are in the same PBL group with me. No worries. After one year I guarantee , I’ll remember their names. The weather is very hot here right now, that's why I always keep my umbrella with me, jaga kulit yop takut nanti sama colour cam tempe.

p/s: I have a mild flu this week, and next week I have test for biochemistry and physiology. All the best ya!!
