Selfie: When to do, When not to.

I have always talk about serious issues in this blog, so this time I decided to write about something less serious than the usual stuff that I usually post in this page of mine. Most of us know what ‘selfie’ is right? It is a type of self-potrait photograph, typically taken with a hand-held camera or camera phone by the person him/herself and so the term ‘selfie’ came into use. It is either they take the picture at a very high or very low angle.

When ‘selfie’ first became a trend, I really can’t understand why people want to take a picture that way, and the most annoying thing is when these people post their ‘selfie’ pictures almost every day in social network site like facebook!!! Since they are in my friend list, their posts keep appearing in my timeline and I was mentally abused by these people. The only logic I can think of is, these people must be that they are suffering from a condition known as chronic narcissism *pun intended*.


After sometime people get creative and they are now able to use ‘selfie’ in an appropriate way, and I can still tolerate to this kind of ‘selfie’. So these are my personal guideline for doing ‘selfie’. Do ‘selfie’ only;

When you go for vacation at some place, and you want to prove it to your friends that you have been there physically. TAKE SELFIE

When you go for a gathering and want to take a group picture and you want everybody including you, the photographer to be included in the picture. TAKE SELFIE

Other than these two reasons if you are in my friends list, please, please, please I’m begging you not to post your ‘selfie’ pictures in the social network. Masuk public toilet selfie, keluar jamban selfie, masuk restoran selfie, makanan sampai selfie, habis makan selfie, naik kereta selfie, nak tidur selfie, bangun tidur selfie.  That is totally not normal okay!!! Yes, I know that you are pretty or handsome or baby-face but please be moderate people. You can consider this as my kind and polite advice. A true friend will point out the good and the bad in you, I'm trying to be one for you. *smile*

#PrayForMH370


From sympathizing with victim's family, people are now arguing about unnecessary things. =( At this very moment, I really think that we should stop making our own speculation and share it in social media networks... Let's put our differences aside and pray for the ease of search and rescue operation. May God bless us all.

#HappyWomenDay

Kadangkala mereka menjengkelkan

Kadangkala mereka terlalu beremosi

Kadangkala mereka terlalu sensetif

Kadangkala mereka seperti sukar untuk difahami

Kadangkala mereka juga berego tinggi...

Tetapi jangan kita lupa,

Mereka juga insan biasa

Mereka juga punya hati yang penyayang

Mereka juga banyak bersabar...

Mereka juga bekerja keras untuk insan tersayang

Dan mereka selayaknya disayangi dan dihormati

Selamat Hari Wanita Sedunia.

Pemergian Nenda Tersayang...


Tanggal 4 Mac 2014, saya yang berada di kolej telah mendapat berita yang menyedihkan melalui SMS daripada ahli keluarga yang memaklumkan tentang pemergian Atok Timah. Ketika itu masa ibarat terhenti seketika, dan hanya lafaz Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un yang dapat saya bisikkan dibibir. Terkilan rasa dihati tidak dapat mengiringi perjalanan terakhirnya, dan mengucup tangannya buat  kali terakhir. Tangan yang telah memandikan kami adik-beradik semasa bayi ketika emak masih dalam pantang. Tangan yang menyediakan makanan apabila anak-anak dan cucu-cucunya datang menziarah. Walaupun Angah hanya dapat menyentuh kaki Maktok sahaja semasa melawat buat kali terakhir di wad HSAJB pada Ahad lepas, tetapi Angah takkan lupa kucupan Maktok dipipi setiap kali Angah salam tangan Maktok.

Hasrat Angah supaya Maktok dapat tengok Angah habis belajar tidak kesampaian, tetapi Angah redha dengan ketentuan Allah. Angah akan merindui celoteh Maktok setiap kali anak-anak dan cucu datang melawat, Angah akan merindui lauk ikan pari yang Maktok masakkan , Angah akan rindu kuih bahulu dan tempeyek yang Maktok selalu buat dulu. Kami sekeluarga sangat menghargai segala pengorbanan dan jasa Maktok untuk anak-anak dan cucu-cicit, dan kami doakan agar Maktok tenang di sana. Semoga roh Maktok sentiasa dicucuri dengan rahmat dan kasih sayang daripada Allah S.W.T.

Al-Fatihah buat:

-Hjh. Fatimah Bte. Ibrahim-
