Tgh makan kuew tiow

Assalamualaikum and bwt,

Hehe, tajuk sebelum ni Lapar, tajuk skang ni Tgh makan kuew tiow. Actually tgh hari tadi tak makan sbb concentrate ngan keje, tu yg lapar tahap naga, kuar kol 4.50 tadi cari makanan kat kantin.

Nak bagitau skang ni my hard disk kat MMU dulu dah ada kat umah, skang ni asyik dgr lagu best2 jerlaa..rindu giler ngan lagu2 tu sumer, mmg bestlaa..lagu Melayu ada, English, Cina, nasyid, Quran...aaa..best best!Rindulaa dgn suasana kat MMu dulu. Biler dah keje ni, rasa jadi student lagi best dr jadi org bekerja ni.

Semalam gih interview MBA kat UIA..boleh tahan jugak susah soalan2 dia..nasib baik interviewers pompuan, kalau lelaki lagi terbelit2 lidah nak menjawab. Ada satu soalan ni berbunyi" What do you think you are going to be within next 10 to 15 yrs? Giler maut soalan, mmglah pernah terfikir tapi takdelah rasa nak dilisankan kat mulut, so i answered dgn hentam keromonya i nak jadi someone yg duduk di position high management. Pastu soalan ni pulak keluar " necessarily in Telekom during that 10-15 yrs? I said no, if i think i have better opportunity outside, then i'll go". Dia tanya lagi, if you go, what sector are you interested in? Addduhh..tak pernah2 kufikir ini soalan, but i answered jugaklah that i'm in interested in Banking. Why Banking? I said becoz it deals with money. Why do you interested in money? Saiko tak rasa..apalaa yg nak kujawab dgn soalan itu..uwaaaaa!!!!

One of the interviewer said i have fairly high chance due to my academic track record, but they have to prioritize other applicants with 10-15 working experience first, if the competition is not stiff, highly chance i could join the session lah. Ntah ler, kalau ada rezeki, adalah kot. Doakan ek :)

Yang bestnya, derang suh bawa scroll yg original dlm sesi tu, so i brought ler MMU Online Scroll, kita mana ada scroll paper kan. Pastu they were so excited lah tgk. Bangga kejap jadi budak MMU. Hehe.

Oklah ek, nak habiskan makan. Pastu nak solat and pegi kelas Arab.

Ma'as salamah.

Lapar

Assalamualaikum wbt and greetings,

Hmm.. quite for a long time this blog has not being updated isn' it? Hehe, as what i asked you before in my last blog, just assume that i was not around in the office, and yes i wasn't in the office since last Tuesday, due to:

1. My great grandmother had passed away on Tuesday..inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji'un
2. I have training course for 3 days starting on Wed.

So what i'm gonna tell ya for today?

About my arwah great grandmother? Hmm..best jugak nak citer. She was someone that we (my siblings and I) were very afraid of dulu, waktu zaman kecik2. She was someone who used to 'berteriak'(takdelaa garang..tapi takutlah jugak) at us kalau kitorang nak pegi kedai waktu kat kampung dulu. Kalau nak pegi kedaikan, my grandmum's house and her house were next to each other..so kecik2 dulu if we were want to go to kedai, at the border line of these 2 houses, we were like spies searching for her glance kat depan pintu or serambi umah, kalau takde, baru berani jalan lalu depan umah arwah (and usually arwah mesti akan jerit tanya kitorang nak pegi mana n kitorang akan lari mcm tak cukup tanah), and kalau ada pulak..i'll be the head yg akan direct my sibling to ready to run as fast as we could so that arwah takkan perasan kitorang (tapi biasanya arwah akan perasan jugak, n seperti biasa kena jerit jugaklah hehe).

We used to try her 'rokok daun' without the gambir or pinang, solely rokok daun jer. Arwah mmg bagi kitorang hisap rokok daun tu coz mmg takde paper dlm dia..pastu belajar makan sireh jugaklah sometimes. Tak sedap pun sirehnya, pedas jer rasanya. Tu jerlah kot kenangan kami dengan dia. The rest tu seperti biasa kalau raya pergilah melawat, and usually arwah akan cakap " dah bosar pun, dulu kocik yo" (slang Negeri 9) and akan selalu tanya "sapo eh ni?" to me kalau salam raya, sebab arwah tak ingat rupa cicit dia yang dah besar2 ni.. hehe. One thing that i am sure, arwah mmg seorang isteri yang baik. Really took care my moyang lelaki, kalau makan akan bagi pinggan special, jaga makan minum and pakaian, akan dulukan moyang lelaki dlm sumer perkara (my auntie yang citer)..:)

Am i sad? I dunno what to say, but i was not crying at all. Mungkin sbb jauh kot hubungan kami, kalau my real grandma or grandpa yang passed away, i'll be crying like nobody businesslah kot. Ya Allah, panjangkanlah umur ahli keluargaku. Atuk and uwan kat Pilah pun mcm dah tak kuat jer dah tu, ingat nak selalu jenguk, tapi kekadang tak berkesempatan. Kerja banyaklah, itulah, inilah.

This is human, always take for granted for everything. Once something or someone has gone away, then at that real time only we mourn the lost that we have to bear for the rest of our lives.

Apa pun, biler dah cakap camni, i feel like i want to get back and have a good time with my family members. Both of my younger bros skang ni kat umah sbb IPT cuti 3 bulan. Yang the youngest 3 jer takde sbb derang kat sekolah. Mcm terbalik pulak, dulu waktu kami yg besar2 ni kat asrama and university, tinggal 3 budak kecik ni jer temankan ibu kat umah. Skang ni biler kitorang dah bekerja and balik universiti, 3 org ni pulak yg takde. Hehe.

Actually malas giler nak stay back buat keje. Tapi kang keje berlambak tertangguh. Perut dah lapar giler dah ni. Nak stay nak ker tak nak? Nak? Tak nak?

Rasa mcm malas, balik jum.

But before that, i am happy to give my comment on our latest election result last week. I dunno what had happened back there at SPR side, but i am more to think that they were not transparent as what they were claiming. The defeat of Terengganu and at most of the places was so unbelievable, yet that was what Allah decided for us. Ada hikmahnya insya-Allah. Mungkin perlunya kita atur barisan dan gerak kerja baru. I was not that sad to face the defeat, coz i am sure that kita akan bangkit kembali, dgn gerak kerja yang lebih baik, insya-Allah. Kemenangan mutlak tak akan berada di tangan mereka selamanya, tapi buat kita yang berazam untuk berjuang menegakkan Islam di muka bumi ini, kemenangan mutlak akan kita capai di negeri akhirat sana, insya-Allah sekiranya disertakan dengan usaha. Pray for our success fi dun'yaa wa akhirah.

Hari ni dpt e mail dr Pres Alumni YTR, ada AGM on this becoming 18 April 2004. Sesiapa yang nak bertanding menjadi exco dialu-alukan. Erk, kena bertanding jugak ker? Hehe, takpelah. Bagilah post pada sesiapa yang berminat, yang rasa-rasanya berkemampuan nak laksanakan amanah as an exco tu. For me, payah sket sbb skang ni dah tahap naga tahap ke'bz'annya. Tak mampulah nak handle bebende ni lagi. I am sure the tasks will be more or less akan byk merangka aktiviti n planning utk meramaikan ahli alumni. Tak kisahlah, cuma i was appointed as one of the Auditors for YTR Fund untuk sesi 2002/2003 on last AGM. Nak kena minta laporan kewangan ni, nanti kang tak laksanakan amanah pulak. Hehe.

Al-Fatihah for Allahyarham Sheikh Yassin (Palestin) n my great grandma. Moga Allah menempatkan mereka di kalangan mereka yang Dia redhai. Ameen.

Wassalam.

Baru balik dr outstation

Assalamualaikum wbt,

This morning i was not in a good mood. With piles of work on my table, with my scheduled meeting with CE R&D TM and Fleet Management today, with the expected presentation slides to be completed today to be sent to CMO..my head is spinning like gasing.

Just came back from Malacca actually. This time, Customer Awareness Program was held in Malacca for 3 days. I have to do the same presentation as before. Alhamdulillah i was given opportunity to jalan2 satu Malaysia ni, tapi biler balik dr outstation, kerja yg berlambak nak kena catch up tu yg tak tahan tu..aaaaaa!!!

Hehe, kalau agak2 my blog ni isn't updated for a very long time, just make a guess that i'm not around. Sure outstation ler tu. Yesterday i took urgent leave, couldn't spare my energy for work. Flat seflatnya pagi semalam. Today i have to come coz i've got to complete my slide presentation for CMO thingy. Yeah rite, semalam eventho i took my urgent leave, at 12 a.m i had received a SMS from CE R&D requesting me to see him at UPM to finalize our findings. Aiyaaa..tgh2 cuti pun kena pergi menghadap, tense tense. But i went jugaklah coz his one-to one meeting with Dato' CE is scheduled on 23 March, so everything shall be completed before that date. Project ni was meant for TM Leaders, tapi kekadang rasa mcm kita pulak yg kena buat assignment ni. Anyway CE R&D ok, tapi mungkin sbb we both are bz sgt sampai kitorang buat meeting and tindakan mengikut flow and keadaan, not that structured that i used to do in FMD. In FMD, everything you have to list down, must have action plan and target date. Giler detail.

Ok..dah pukul 9.30 pagi, kena rush utk siapkan presentation pulak, satu bende pun tak siap lagi.

This morning i opened TV3 at 6.30 in the morning. Ustazah Bahiyah tgh bagi penerangan mengenai beberapa amalan yang menyelamatkan kita daripada siksaan di akhirat. Ada banyak kisah yang diceritakan, tapi several points that i could catch :

1. Sentiasa menjaga silaturrahim
2. Sentiasa berbaik sangka dengan Allah
3. Sentiasa menangis kerana takutkan Allah
4. Sentiasa takut akan Allah di dalam keadaan terang mahupun gelap dan sunyi

Tu jer yg tgh terlintas di kepala sekarang ini. Ok, wassalam.

Otak terasa seperti mau rentung

Assalamualaikum and wbt,

Hehe, feel funny about my heading? You should feel so..becoz really, that's what i feel now..otak terasa seperti mau rentung!!

Giler byk kerja nak kena handle...and at 2.30 p.m tadi Tn Hj panggil masuk bilik..asking about my decision to replace Kak Fida or not! haiyaa..i've got a lot to do skang ni..tu nak kejar..ni nak kejar..nak gantikan tempat Kak Fida pulak for about 3 months..mau terbakar otak dibuatnya. Cuma ada sedikit pelepasan on KPI..Ya Allah, ringanlah beban hambaMu ini..terasa mcm tak cukup masa pulak skang ni. Tahun lepas relax giler, tahun ni rasa mcm tak cukup tgn. Tak tau yg mana satu nak didahulukan dulu. Hehe.

Semalam berbual dgn Abg Faris Rasoulli, exco SRC tahun ni. Byk kerja katanya. Hidup agak tak tentu arah. Hehe, pengalaman biasa menjadi seorang exco. Ika dah pernah rasa, Zainal dah pernah rasa, Cpol pun dah pernah rasa..faham-faham sendiri jerlah beban tugas yg perlu ditanggung. Mana nak cater for studies, nak cater for kawan2, nak cater for personal life. Semuanya terpaksa dicompressed menjadi satu kehidupan yang agak kurang stabil dirasakan.

Actually i have to thank my real close classmate n groupmates for standing behind me all the time. Seriously, without Zarid, Shelly, Mafus, Halim, Rahimi, Yati pruz and Elly, i think and i am sure that i'll become a dead meat. They were the ones who had helped me a lot in my studies. Backed me up for our projects, our assignment, our final thesis..i am very grateful to have them as my friends, really. Terhutang budi sangat-sangat sampai tak tau mcm mana nak say thank you in words to them. They did understand my conditions when i was performing as an exco, they knew that i didn't have enough time to be spent leisurely and academically, so what they did were very helpful to me. They decided every date that we supposed to meet and have discussion, assign and update everything that i need to know. My goodness, kalaulah ditakdirkan mereka tak dianugerahkan oleh Allah to be my friends, i do not know what to say. Perhaps i'm not someone that you can see today.

Cuma one thing that i stressed to Abg Faris yesterday about being an exco. Kena ikhlas. Tak perlu merungut selalu. Zainal selalu ingatkan yg apa kami buat dulu bukannya tugas, tapi tanggung jawab. Memikirkan tanggungjawab yang perlu dibuat kerana Allah, akan menyebabkan kita rela sacrifice a lot of things, including personal life. Cuma skang ni biler dah kerja, diri terasa menjadi sedikit selfish kerana inginkan masa untuk diri sendiri, sedangkan mmg dah sedia tahu tanggung jawab utk berdakwah itu ada and lies on each of us. Jahat,kan? Selalu rasa nak mengelak kalau diajak utk turun meeting during weekends, sbb rasa nak rest and bermalas-malasan di rumah. Hehe.

Secara konklusinya, (actually tak suka betul guna istilah BM yang diambil drpd istilah English) apa pun yg kita buat, kita niatkan krn Allah (tapi itu jugaklah yg selalu terlupa nak buat). Rugi masa dan effort yg kita buat ini kalau kita tak niatkan kerana utk beramal. Kalau otak rentung pun, kalau dah kita buat kerana Allah, apa pun sanggup diharungi,kan?

So guys, mari kita tanam niat sama-sama mengerjakan segala pekerjaan ini kerana Dia. Rezeki kita pun Dia yang tentukan, jadi apa sangat yang dikejar akan dunia ini. (hasil belajar 1 hadis dlm kelas bahasa Arab). Time ustaz terangkan pasal maksud hadis ni dlm kelas, terasa malu sungguh. Terasa sgt apa yang kita buat sekarang ni mcm umpama mengejar kekayaan dunia, sedangkan kenalah berpada-pada dalam mencari keuntungan di dunia dan banyakkan mencari untuk akhirat. Betul-betul mcm orang tersedar dr tidur biler ustaz bacakan hadis tu. Insaf kejap.

Ok, dah nak bergerak ke kelas Arab. Actually sekarang ni mcm dah lost jugak dgn arabic ni, sebab selalu tak dtg kelas. Ni yang payahnya kalau kena selalu outstation, terpaksa burn kelas. Rugi jer rasanya. Apa pun, kita usahalah mana yang terdaya, selebihnya kita pulangkan pada Allah. :)

Ma'as salamah.

Live without passion, what exactly the outcomes gonna be?

Bertemu kembali

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Just came back from Penang. For about 4 days i was there assessing my customers. The experience was so good since i had given opportunity to follow some investigations works done by En. Zul and Zaki. Only 3 of us yg turun Penang as Investigation Officers.

Each time i travel with some of my officemates, we were became closer and closer with each other, which is good actually. We became more open-minded, less misunderstandings for each other, and the most important thing is that we have FUN together! Hehe, actually nope, that is not the most important thing actually. Among all, the knowledge and feeling sharing among us which counts most. Seriously, i've learnt a lot this time from the perspective of adults. We talked about life, career, general knowledge and even politics!! I've grown up!! hehe.

During our journey back to KL, we discussed on the role of parent in forming the best attitude and capabilities of children. I'm not yet married, but i can fixed myself into the conversation by reflecting to my own childhood experiences. I believe that what i become now is the result of the freedom of decision making given by my parent. At any time and at any matter which need decision to be made. Not only me, but to all my siblings except for my 3 youngest sisters coz they are more like spoilt brats to us (the older sisters and bros..hehe). Actually they are not that spoilt, tapi sbb dimanjakan sgt by my mum, tu yg tak reti nak independent tu. Goreng ikan pun nak kena org ajar. but now i think there lots improvement have been made. Dah tau nak goreng sayur, masak gulai. Satu jer yg derang fail, masak nasi..sure berkerak. Tulaa, dulu belajar masak pakai periuk karan, biler dah rosak tak tau nak adjust api nasi biler pakai periuk biasa.Hehe.

I've learn something about life today. Looking at the world with some perception which i used to look at during i was in Matriculation dulu. Sometimes i felt that it would be nice, very very nice to go back to the fine old times, where i won't have to face the bitterness of experience at certain episodes of my life. Happy living as a student without not so much to worry about life. I have to admit that my best experience as a student was in my matriculation, back in malacca in 1999. I'm glad to study in MMU eventhough at the first place UM is my first choice. I got the UM offer, but my father didn't let me go and study there. In MMU i ended up became an Accounting grad. Lots of interesting stories there. Not enuf space if i have to tell ya all the stories.

This evening kak Fida said that perhaps i'll be replacing her place for about 2 months. She's expecting a child in May. Of course i'm happy to have the chance to practice my accounting skills since Kak Fida's works are dealing with budgeting. But on the other hand, i'm scared for i have LOTS of LOTS things to do. Seriously, sometimes i feel that i should pasang 2 pasang tangan palsu lagi untuk buat keje. Skang ni tgh hectic ngan keje sampai tak tau mana satu nak buat.

Kak Fida kata mungkin ada sorang exec yg akan diserapkan di bawah unit dia, and the best candidate for that post is me, coz of my accounting background. Rite now i'm not that keen to be happy with that news eventhough that was my dream dulu ketika baru2 masuk FMD. I want to practice my accounting, what the heck of being an accounting grad and yet you can't perform what you have learnt in university before? Quite a waste isn't it? 4 years was not a short period to learn all the creepy theoritical and practical concepts of accounting. But i managed to settle all down. Big applause for myself!! Hehe.

Alrite, later k. Need to move on.

Life isn't easy, but the power to change it lies with us, so make up your mind! Grow up and make the best of you :)

Wassalam.
