Erti Ketenangan

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

I am at Singapore currently. It's a brief get together with the family before Intan departs in mid October.

I found this video - Mencari Ketenangan. Dr Asri mainly talks on the various definitions and how fair Allah is in his distribution of happiness.



MasyaAllah. How true that money is not everything.

Learning is a lifelong process. So, don't stop!

Precious Moment.

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

It was a hell of a night last night. It started pretty slowly. Everything was ideal till the clock turned 10 pm.

A 5 year old boy was admitted with the diagnosis of poor oral intake ? cause. The moment I saw him, not responsive to my call, I knew something is not right.

Long story short, he developed a convulsion shortly afterward.

Kulim, bearing the name of Hi Tech Park, does not have Paediactrics Intensive Care Unit. We had to support his breathing manually, and we had to keep that going from Kulim to Alor Star Hospital. The whole thing took 5 hours, and the constant pumping of adrenaline finally took its toll this morning.

It was very unusual for me to ask boss for a couple of hours off. I had too. I was not steady on my feet. We reached Kulim at 6 am. Again, from 10 pm till 6 am

Putting this aside, I felt happy that we managed to keep the boy alive. Though the mother was in tears, the effort that we put in was extraordinary.

I pray to Allah for his speedy recovery.

Sometimes, you don't need a thank you to keep you happy. Am I right?

Mondrian!

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

As impressive as the IPhone boasts, I have never wanted it to be honest.

I'm a techy.

I get aroused looking at the preview of Windows Phone 7 for HTC Mondrian. Yes, at Malaysia, we are still talking Iphone and HTC Desire.



It's not wrong now to be aroused, is it?

Needles and Life

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

It's nothing more than just a photo, taken a couple of days ago. Needles, you say?

Look closely, this photo represents a significant segment of a progressive individual.

Sometimes it takes more than 1 shot before you get to conquer the summit. It does, doesn't it?

I've shared with you this before I think. A speech 'From Needles to Missiles' by Yusof Qardhawi.



That is why I never give 100% support to 'Boikot Israel'. It is not about weakening your enemy, my dear friends. It is about strengthening ourselves.

The best way to achieve victory is by combining both.

Right?

Worked Up!

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

It is 1 am at the moment and I am still fresh. It feels weird though, because I had only 5 hours of sleep during my on call, and yet I still can't fall asleep.

I forced myself to watch that City-Chelsea game. I proceeded to Liverpool-Sunderland next. Perhaps I got too worked up with the result that I am blogging at this point of time.

It's been ages since I last felt the joy of watching Liverpool games. It just feels not right now, where everything goes wrong and nothing goes right.

Patience is the key. Regroup and stick together through thick and thin. I believe if we keep on working hard, we will strive.

Funny enough I feel like cleaning my room now. Horribly messy I tell you. Looking at the clock, is this the right moment to do this?

Or should I just go back to bed.

I don't know. Time will tell.

Homesick

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

As my father has tweeted, there is currently a gradual exodus of family members taking place at home. Syasya left for India a couple of days ago, followed by Ana.

Soon, Intan to proceed to her 2nd year of Medicine course in Egypt. Alwani to get married soon in December and Aimi will be back at Canada after the former's wedding.

So what is next for me?

The motivation to be back home has never waned.

Only that, the chance for all of us to be together again will be the earliest July 2011. InsyaAllah.

Syawal 8th

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

It's Syawal Day 8 now. I am back in Kulim already, 4 days ago.

I hope Raya has brought smiles to the many of you. I, despite the short holiday, really treasured the joy of getting together with the family. It goes without saying that the short long trip to Johor Bahru from Penang was tiring, but who cares?

The only sad part is I am not getting ang pau as much as my sisters' anymore. Funny isn't it, your mind is asking you to (please)be mature, but the childish part of you keeps on wanting this. This goes away, proportionately with time.

Honestly this is not the sad really. One of my sisters, Syasya is leaving for India. Intan will be back in Egypt in October. Irwan, my brother is suffering from jet lag in Canada. His wife is soon to follow in December. Alwani is getting married in December, and plans to be with her husband at Kota Damansara.

Yeah yeah, life goes on.

I suppose the next time we will be together under one roof again the earliest July 2011. God willing, of course.

Come January, only my parents will be at home, alone.

I will come home whenever I can, I promise.

I hope Allah will grant us more opportunities to meet again. We are thankful to Allah for blessing us with a fantastic family setup. I really can't ask for more.

For my sisters, good luck in your future undertaking. Study well, and always remember that your parents and family are behind you, supporting you always.

Your future is in your hands, nobody else can change that. Regardless of how many of your friends tell you that these exams are extremely difficult, remember that these exams are part and parcel of life. Nothing good comes easily.

I will write again in the future.

Till next time,
assalamualaikum

Ucapan Raya

Assalamualaikum
in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

Alhamdulillah, hari ini kita dah masuk hari ke -27 berpuasa. Sejauh mana efektif puasa kita, semua pengetahuan tu hanya milik Yang Esa. Secara peribadi, kita sendiri boleh menilai sama ada puasa kita mampu mengatasi tahap lapar dan dahaga sahaja.

Di sini bukan medan untuk membuka pekong di dada sendiri mahupun orang lain. Kita sendiri yang menjadi kedua-dua pelajar dan pengkritik.

Apa-apa pun, saya di sini ingin mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Saya dengan ikhlas meminta maaf Zahir dan Batin(x yakin ada buat salah secara batin pun).hehe...


Kali ni kali ke-2 berturut-turut saya dapat beraya bersama keluarga. Best!

Alhamdulilllah tahun ni agak bermakna sebab semua ahli keluarga dapat bersama-sama setelah beberapa bulan/tahun. Mungkin rezeki kami semua lain=lain, sebab banyak yang bermaustatin di luar.

InsyaAllah saya akan berada di Johor Bahru untuk raya yang pertama. Raya kedua dan seterusnya, saya akan berada di Kuala Lumpur sampaila ke raya keempat.

Siapa2 yang mengenali saya, dijemput datang ke rumah. Nak jemput ajak saya beraya pn xpe. Nak ajak melepak pn xpe.

Raya keempat saya akan bertolak ke Kulim kembali untuk menyambung tugas berkhidmat untuk negara.

Okla, panjang lebar plak.

Sekali lagi, Selamat Hari Raya, maaf Zahir dan Batin!!

Flu

assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

I'm not supposed to be here where I am now, home.

I am down with flu at the moment, and self nursing with nothing but rest. With a smile on my face, I am wondering about the differences between the lifestyle of ours and of course, the rest of the world.

What makes me smile, you might wonder.

When I was in New Zealand, occasionally I will fall sick with simple viral infection. Over there, they will not advise you to come to work. Why? There's a possibility you might infect/affect your colleagues with your symptoms.

Here, at times, people use this as a time to chill out at home. It is an excuse for you to be away from work. Not everybody does this, and not every Mat Saleh has good intention when they are down with fever, my point is the more you see the world,the more knowledge you will gain.

There is one University by the name of Auckland University of Technology. In their ads, this Prof always mentions 'the more you know, the more that you will know that you do not know'.

It's true, isn't it?

assalamualaikum
