Hanya untuk menyelesaikan misi

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Dari pagi tidak dapat menjenguk blog ini, kerana seharian di dalam bilik meeting bermesyuarat.

Tapi alhamdulillah, masa dipergunakan untuk bekerja, dari membuang masa entah ke mana-mana. Hari ini kami meraikan 2 anggota yang saya sudah anggap ibu ketiga dan kakak saya sepanjang saya bekerja di TM ini selama 2 tahun. Kak Awie dan Kak Maznah mengambil skim VSS, dan hari ini kami raikan dengan Shakeys, KFC dan A&W untuk majlis perpisahan pada hari terakhir mereka berada di sini.

Sedih dengan kehilangan mereka, tapi apa pun, kita kena bersedia dan menerima hakikat, tidak selamanya kita akan bersama dengan seseorang itu. Kenangan manis bersama mereka akan sentiasa tersemat di hati, insya Allah :)

Pagi tadi adik sudah menelefon memberitahu dia akan kembali dari UM, sibuk berceloteh ttg projek Masternya yang tersalah proses dan sebagainya. Malam ni dia mem'book' saya dan adik-adik lain untuk bermain dgnnya Scrabble yang katanya baru dibeli. Size giant katanya, pasti kami sekeluarga akan bermain tak ingat TV malam ni, hehe. Pengalaman bermain Scrabble dengan ayah pertama kali dahulu menyaksikan ayah tidak berpuas hati atas kekalahannya menyebabkan dia mengajak kami bermain sehingga 3 kali pusingan di mana ketiga-tiga pusingan pun ayah masih kalah, rasanya malam ini perkara yang sama akan berulang lagi :D

Rancangan saya esok?

Saya dan adik akan ke PWTC Book Fair, ingin mencari sebuah buku idaman seorang sahabat karib yang sudah berubah menjadi 'typical woman' lately, maka bukunya pun berciri-cirikan sifat terbarunya sekarang ini. Takpe, saya faham peningkatan usia dan tahap kematangan seseorang akan merubah kita menjadi insan lain yang tak pernah terimpikan kadang-kadang, and i think the same thing is happening to my bestfriend ni juga, err err, betul ker Miss X-File? (sajek jek tak nak reveal saper hehe).

Malamnya selepas kelas, saya dan bestfriend akan memenuhi jemputan adik kami Mudin, masih kurang jelas untuk apa dan sebagainya. Tapi yang pasti, bestfriend saya sudah excited mahu mendapat hadiahnya dr Mudin kerana berjaya menyelesaikan satu teka-teki :)

Untuk my ex-Presiden dan juga sahabat terapat, Bro Zainal Badri Mustafar, selamat hari lahir, moga anta dimurahkan rezeki, dikurniakan rahmat Allah dan semoga berbahagia dunia akhirat bersama Hany dan Nufayl.Kek takde ker utk kitorang bekas-bekas anak buah ni? Kalau ada passkan kat Hany ek ;P

Untuk Aina, jgn bersedih di Seremban sana, jika tiada aral melintang, i'll visit you there bulan 6 ni, insya Allah. Jangan nangis2 kat sana ek :)


Saya mengambil puisi ini dari blog adik kesayangan saya Azrin, kerana saya suka dengan mesejnya.

Jika hari ini kita di sini,
Esok belum di tentukan lagi,
Jika hari ini kita di hormati,
Manakan tahu esok di benci

Keindahan hidup yang di impi,
Tak secerah mentari pagi,
Kita hanya seorang insani,
Punya perasaan juga naluri
Kita di utus kedunia ini
Hanya untuk menyelesaikan misi

Hidup ini hanya sementara
Usahlah kita bermuram durja
Capailah apa di depan mata
Dunia bukan milik kita
Walau kita di benci di hina
Kita masih hambaNya
Kita di utus untuk melaksana
Dia yang menentukannya!!


Tersentap sekejap hati pabila membaca puisi ini, kita diutuskan ke dunia ini punya misi,and saya tak pasti saya dah bergerak melangkah untuk mencapai misi itu atau pun tidak.

Astaghfirullah juga, entah apa yang sering saya rungutkan sekarang, sedangkan segala yang berlaku sudah menjadi ketetapan dari dahulu lagi.

Mengapa menjadi tidak sabar dengan apa yang telah ditetapkan sedangkan dahulu kita sudah berikrar sebelum dilahirkan ke duunia untuk menjadi hamba Tuhan, dan sepatutnya kita sebagai hamba sudah patut redha dan patuh dgn apa yang sudah disandarkan di dalam agama.

Seminggu ini saya mengira masa, dan di dalam saya mengira masa itu, masih punya banyak masa yang saya kira tidak berkualiti yang saya telah pergunakan.

Saya berazam dahulu, sekiranya saya berjaya memasuki UIA, saya ingin mencari sepuas-puasnya khazanah Islam di perbendaharaan ilmunya. Hingga kini, saya hanya mampu berbuat sungguh sedikit, sedikit yang amat!

Ahh, rugi saya, rugi saya jika berterusan seperti begini.

Bantu daku Ya Allah, dalam usaha memahami syariatMu. Tanpa bantuanMu, tiada kudratku untuk melangkah.

Kasihaniku Ya Allah, kasihanilah.

I cried!!

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Ya Allah, Zurina begitu sensitif, over some matters that sometimes dun't request for air mata pun.

Zurina!! Apsal ni?

:)

Just now i went to see my GM and he asked about what did i feel over my job. I said that i do have some brief pictures on what he wanted me to do, and it has become clearer to me especially after he presented his MCM presentation last 2 weeks to Dato'.

And he asked anything that i want to say after several presentation slides he had assigned to me?

I couldn't speak and suddenly i cried!! In front of him, and my mouth babbling about my dissatisfaction over his email yesterday. I explained to him that i have done whatever necessary and dun blame me on anything when the respective person didn't give me info,and dgn terus terangnya i apologized to him for kutuking him (ada ker istilah kutuking? Ntah..Paiji yang ajar) with Kak Fida semalam. I said that i became so bengang that i could not tahan my feeling and stormed to Kak Fida's place to release my tension.I know he won't get angry one if me terus terang kata i kutuk dia, dia lagi suka kalau org terus terang. Actually not kutuk pun, just mentioned the dissatisfaction about his e mail to Kak Fida,tu jek.

Pastu i said ler my opinion for whatever things that i felt was not correct (dgn linangan air mata nih), pastu GM kata dia tak sangka e mail dia buat me rasa terasa. Dia kata dia lebih suka tulis e mail dr berjumpa bersemuka sbb dia takut mcm my case ni ler, belum paper dah nangis. Sempat lagi buat lawak my GM nih!

After dah ok tu, dia terangkan why he sent me the email. He concerned if the trend from past years which long-long before i took place of the task to do reporting will continue, which he dun want the same thing keeps heppening and therefore he wanted to guide me to give better deliverables. Mostly on planning and getting information by setting up meeting whatsoever.

Oklaa, i am someone yg cepat ok and get over with something if i know the exact reasoning, but still tgk ler logic ker tidak.

Klakar, rasanya GM tak expect pun that i will cry in front of him. Tapi tak kisah ler,i'm not the first person yang menangis depan dia hehe. Nasib baik tak reply email berapi kat dia semalam, kalau tak ntah apa ler jadi nanti, but one thing i'm sure, the Mr XXX will apologize accordingly if i send the email since early morning semalam pun dia dah minta maaf from me for couldn't furnish the info (that was before i read the GM's e mail).

GM kata he trusts me to perform better since he perceived me as proactive and provocative.Provocative?? Mcm2 ler my GM nih assume, dulu kata me defensive, now provocative? Takpe ler, as long as it meant for good purposes. (I have to be provocative in mgmt meeting to get certain issues to be clarified and done by the floor, so that's why i dun mind he called me as provocative).

Isk isk Zurina, you are 25 now, and you are still crying like a baby? Isk isk, grow up!!

Apa pun, i felt relieved for i had voiced out my dissatisfaction, and i had apologized to my GM for kutuking him yesterday hehe.

Alhamdulillah, now i get more motivated to do my work back,and i have to prove myself that i can do better in near future insya Allah, to myself, not to someone else :)

Wassalam.

Dah tak marah lagi dah (baca: intonasi mcm iklan Maggi : Dah tak sakit lagi dah)

Assalamualaikum wbt,

(1) Result Mid Term

Hehe, hari ini membuat 2 posting, aneh,kan? :p

Actually sebenarnya plan utk post citer lain, tapi disebabkan pepagi volcano dah meletup, lain pulak jadinya.

Tapi skang ni alhamdulillah dah ok, volcano dah beku sebab suhu dah turun bawah paras negative 5 darjah Celcius hehe.

Nak marah2 selalu pun buat apa, of course Mr XXX tu pun tak berniat nak lengahkan my kerja, and of course jugak my GM bukan sesuka hati dia nak menegur (sure dia tgh bengang sgt ler tu sampai keluar e mail), so me pun tak bleh ler sesuka hati nak marah2 memanjang,kan kan? :D

Ok, actually nak citer yg i had received my 2 mid term results last Saturday and Sunday, and alhamdulillah, my result were good, despite of last minute preparations, tapi alhamdulillah, my result were among the highest. My groupmate Kak Liana mmg gempak giler sbb dia score and beat me for both papers, but i could not grumble over her results since i knew my efforts were not incomparable to her, she every nite came to UIA and had some discussions with our other groupmates, meanwhile me studied quite last minutes i would say. But!! I still manage to get good results, alhamdulillah :)

Remember the 2 questions that i let my friend Azrul copied since he got blank during our exam? My lecturer gave me remarks 'Good!' on my paper for answering one of those questions, hehe, and Azrul had promised to treat me for sharing my answer with him. Hehe, double rewards for me :D

Kak Liana asked me to go for specialization in Finance, i do attracted to learn more about Finance since this is a subject that i hate most during my degree level, so mcm nak hilangkan phobia (surprisedly, i got an A for this subject dulu sbb i hate the subject so much that i learnt it very well sbb takut tak score,subject lain yang i tak benci tak plak score sgt sbb rasanya selalu take for granted kot, so next time kena hate sumer subject jugak so that i can get all A hehe), tapi biler pk pk balik, i'm not doing Finance at the first place, but i'm looking to jump into Finance Group after this.Tgklah mcm mana nanti.

One thing i am not keen to take Finance becoz it deals with a lot of calculations, and i hate calculations. I like mgmt subjects becoz i know i can rely on my memory and comprehension ability, i can pick up mgmt or readings subjects easily instead of calculations that need a lot of practice and sometimes need my brain to be cracked off first, then only i manage to get an answer hehe.

Ntah camner ler i did my Accountancy dulu, but please do not get mistaken by my statement, Accounting from my opinion would say that this subject is more dealing with logics and ability to understand the case, consolidate whatever data to produce certain new data, and then put them on certain format of reporting, and justify them based on accounting principles, it is more or less like Law subjects, where you must know what is the prima facie of the case, what was the precedent case and what are the respective Acts that you need to apply. Done! :D

(2) Ibu

On last Saturday,betul betul terkesan di hati saya, pengalaman ditegur secara direct tidak sampai sejam saya membuat onar kepada ibu saya (apa lagi, berdebat ngan ibu ler, biasa ler anak dia sorang nih mmg jaguh Parlimen, kalau tak takdenyer der dipilih jadi YB Panadol during program Yayasan Tun Razak dulu, yer tak Cpol? Hanya Cpol yang memahami ekeke)

My mum told me that she wanted to enroll for Islamic course di UM, i actually dun have any objection towards the idea since i know it will benefits my mum. My reason why i didn't agree at the first place and the things which led to a debate with my mum was that, she will ketinggalan for abt 2 months since kelas tu dah bermula 2 bulan lepas, and furthermore, subject2nya bukannya senang, kena belajar Syariah, Quran, and yang paling killer for me is Arabic. Ingat senang ker nak catch up these subjects after 2 months tertinggal.Dahlaa my mum takde basic. Tapi my mum ni jenis keras hati, sama mcm anak dia ni jugak yg bukan jek keras hati tapi keras kepala jugak hehe,dedua tak nak mengalah, last2 i keluar rumah utk ke UIA tanpa salam tangan ibu.

I took a taxi to UIA, and the first taxi driver that i met was Malay, tapi disebabkan awal2 dia dah minta extra charge, which me mmg kurang senang dgn org sebegini, belum apa2 dah minta extra charge, lain ler kalau me ikhlas nak bagi after dia dah hantarkan ke UIA, ok ler lagi, so opted for the second taxi, which actually an Indian. Memula menyesal gak ler ambil taxi kedua ni sbb dalam taxi dia sarat dgn patung Hindu and bunga melur yang menyebabkan me hampir pening kepala, tapi alang2 dah duduk, malas dah ler nak keluar taxi balik.

I asked the taxi driver about upacara2 keagamaan and why they used to pecahkan kelapa di kuil, and he said that the ceremony is to avoid any charm or black magic. Pastu ntah paper laie ler kami sembangkan, hingga hampir-hampir kami sampai ke UIA, he complimented me for being brave to ask about certain things that seldom people ask, perhaps due to sensitive racial and religious thingy,and i said to him, if i'm scared to ask, then i will not learn anything.That's it.

And he told me his secret recipe for life and asked me to follow, he said,

'Always respect orang tua, tak kirelah org Cina ker, India ker atau Melayu, always respect them, i can assure you, rezeki you akan murah'

He continued,

'You buka Quran, you baca, Tuhan Allah ada cakap mesti hormat orang tua, especially your parent. Kalau you tak respect your father takpe, tapi you kena jaga hati your mother betul betul, mesti ingat tu'

Erkk, kukira teguran itu direct dr Allah, dari mulut seorang uncle India si pemandu teksi buat peringatan diri!

Solat Asar di UIA menyaksikan penyesalan hamba Allah yang sorang ni kerana berdebat dengan ibu, dan terasa masih ada kasih sayang Allah kerana memberi teguran.

Esok pagi salam ibu sambil minta maaf, and seperti biasa ibunya faham anak dia yg sorang ni jenis emo sket kekadang, and seperti biasa juga sering memaafkan.

Hehe, sayang my ibu!


Wassalam.

Susahnya nak bersabar

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Yesterday i took MC due to fever.

This morning i received an email from GM mentioning his dissatisfaction over an outstanding issue which he used to face long2 before i took over someone's place to make reporting and business planning in FMD. And i believe one of the factors why he dissatisfied was becoz i took my MC yesterday, and ultimately someone who supposedly hand over his information to GM was not ready with the info at all, eventhough i had sent him a reminder e-mail and SMSed him yesterday asking him to furnish the data requested by GM. If i was not having the fever yesterday, i'll do that by myself.

And yes, i was the one who took the blame eventhough the things happens was not my fault.

Ya Allah,sabar jelah, mmg volcano dah meletup dah pepagi buta ni. My responsibility is to collect data from each unit, consolidate statistics and make slide presentations apart from doing the business planning.

But if those people didn't give me info due to their own problems, what can i do then? And i swear, this is my last time i give my kind face to these people who don't know how to respect other people's job and responsibility. Should i sacrifice my reputations and feelings just to save their own faces? Damn i won't!! (Ni tgh mengamuk ler ni, geram giler ngan org2 mcm ni)

Sakit hati betul, sebab org lain, kita pulak yang kena. Nasib baik GM bagi teguran yang considered halus ler lagi, takde ler dia pi cc kat other managers mcm dia buat dulu to the person that i'm replacing now. Kalau dia buat mcm tu kat me, lantak ler, seminggu aa i won't smile at him. Baik minta tukar balik to my previous manager, lagi senang hati.

Ya Allah, susahnya nak bersabar, sabar iena sabar. Dugaan kecil jer ni.

Actually rasa mcm nak menjawab balik jer e mail GM, nak jer cakap that i had furnished whatever data that he requested from me except for data XXXXX from Mr XXX who didn't manage to pass over the info to me from last week, and i am not willing to take the blame as the fault was not originated from me, but from someone else. Nak ajer rasanya reply mcm tu and cc kat Mr XXX tu, tapi hati ni walaupun dah meletup volcanonya, still boleh pk rasional lagi, nanti kang kalau reply, pastu sure GM reply balik,pastu i reply lagi, nanti sampai bebila tak habis. Lebih baik create harmony environment between he and me sbb at the end, dia jugak yang akan menilai my performance, kang kena blacklist as budak yg suka melawan kang, susah plak. Dahlaa sometimes me and Zahan acted very defensive at certain times, benci aa kalau bukan kita yg salah, kita yg kena. Ieee...rasa mcm nak bersemuka ngan GM pun ada skang ni.

I replied email GM by saying thank you for giving teguran and i'll improve myself in future, insya Allah.

Sabar iena sabar, sabar bebanyak, kalau pun itu was not your fault, take the teguran as a challenge to yourself, so that after this you'll improve yourself much2 better.

Insya Allah.

Sigh.

Wassalam.

Rasa yang bercampur2 di pagi Jumaat

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Pagi ini sesampai di ofis, sudah sibuk membuka laptop dan desktop untuk menyelesaikan slide presentation yang diminta. Tn Hj pagi-pagi sudah menghadap saya bertanyakan status slide untuk saya bentangkan pada pukul 11 pagi nanti. The slide is all ready, except for certain info dan gambar investigation.

Pergi ke tempat Midun sambil merayu minta gambar investigation (every month i have to beg for the investigation pictures, sbb derang kata utk dpt sesuatu hasil tiada jalan mudah, so mmg this is one way deraan mereka to me so that i won't get the info so easily, dun get them wrong, they are so nice, cuma nakal jek,suka mengusik org :)

Lepas 15 minit merayu, baru dapat gambar2nya, dan kemudian Midun bertanya ttg my assessment for bonus and increment. He mentioned that he did not satisfied with what several of us got for the assessment. I didn't say anything since me myself dunno exactly how much i get, and i dun even care pun as long as it did not go below the par.I believed Midun was in the same level as mine, it's just that he felt quite demotivated when he observed some of the managers which are not totally actively involved in operational duties, but yet managed to get higher marks compared to those executives that he felt are dying to complete all those tasks.

Due to that,he said he wanted to opt for MAS pilot, and if he cannot go, he will pursue his Master in UK with his wife, Fara insya Allah at the end of this September. I said to him, go if you have the chance, go if you see the benefits out there is higher compared if you stay with TM, if i have the chance, i'll do the same thing also. Again, this is not the issue of disloyalty here, TM is good and even Midun is quite reluctant to leave TM, but we also have to think about our career path and life satisfactions too, dun we?

When Midun told me that he feld demotivated etc, i kept quite and when i got back to my seat, this feeling of sadness came to me and my tears rolling down non-stop on my cheeks. It was really touching that somebody shared his own idea and his feelings that he seldom share with others but to you, and feel sad over his sadness and dissatisfactions towards certain things. I felt guilty for until now i did not yet succeed with my incentive program in FMD, and i do feel that these good guys are qualified to be rewarded for their hardworkings and success that always has become one of the most important tasks in FMD.

I am too perasa orgnya, as Kak Fari said, sensitive. If someone took care of you very well, had taught you so many things about life, had cheered you up from early morning until the end of the day, of course you will care about them too. And to imagine myself to loose these people like Midun and Zaki, Dz and Abg Is, is quite unbearable to me. Yet, the reality check has always says that we cannot hang to someone forever, we have to proceed and take whatever it needs for us to continue with our lives, happily or vise versa. The options is always open for us to decide, which way you want your life to be, sad or happy, good or bad etc. We are the ones to choose, guided by Allah of course (idea2 ini dipinjam daripada artikel2 motivasi Mudin my dearly brother in his blog, sure banyak pahala awak dpt yer Mudin biler org apply ilmu yang awak sebarkan, alhamdulillah :)

Walau apa pun, hari ini hari Jumaat, hari kebesaran umat Islam, pastinya tidak akan dipersiakan dengan perasaan sedih memanjang. Saya punya agenda hidup yang lainnya untuk memastikan kehidupan saya sentiasa berputar mengikut pilihan saya, iaitu untuk hidup gembira di bawah lindungan kasihNya :)

Ya Ar Rahman, nas aluka ridhoka wal jannah, wa na'uzubika min sakhatika wan nar.

Ameen.

Wassalam :)

Tajul


Hehe, pagi ini sehari suntuk bermesyuarat, semalam me get to sleep for only 1 hour berikutan terpaksa menyiapkan laporan mesyuarat pengurusan this morning, tak sempat nak buat since sudah 2 minggu berhempas pulas menyiapkan slide presentation GM, habis sahaja meeting dgn Dato' terus mesyuarat pengurusan, mmg tergolek dok sungguh hehe. Tapi alhamdulillah, everything went fine during our mgmt meeting today, habis me kena sakat dlm meeting room dgn bebudak Investigation, derang nih mmg suka sakat sbb i'm the youngest dlm division bersama Zahan, pastu derang layan me mcm adik2 derang jek plak. Nasib baik me takde abg,bleh aa consider derang ni abg2 yg super nakal tahap (err..nak tulis apa ni ek, kang tulis tahap naga kang, kena usik lagi dgn bebudak trio yang pantang diberi peluang, tense tense), derang ni nakal tahap gabanlaa actually (hehe, terpaksa guna gaban, tapi i know Cpol mesti nak kenakan me ngan naga jugak, tau dah :P )

Mmg hangat dlm bilik meeting tadi, my presentation asyik kena sangkal jek sbb derang nak buat me tense,nakal sgt2 derang nih, sampai me dah siap buat reactions yg buat satu bilik meeting gelak (cth: jelir lidah kat derang) .Tension aa derang nih, suka betul menyakat, takde keje lain :)

Best ngan derang nih, best sgt, belajar byk benda ttg kehidupan, belajar ttg banyak benda berkaitan disiplin dan matlamat hidup :)

Pastu kami habis meeting, kami celebrate birthday Tn Hj!! Yeayyy, Tn Hj mmg tak sangka kami nak celebrate birthday dia, first time dia kata dia kena tiup lilin and potong kek depan staf dia, hehe, ye ler, Tn Hj alim sket, sure dia jenis tak celebrate tiup2 lilin nih hehe.


Actually Jumaat ni supposedly i take my leave, tapi disebabkan Tn Hj perlukan slide presentation from me untuk Customer Awareness Program for Klang Valley next week, so kenalah cancel cuti huhu (asyik kena buat slide presentation jek skang ni, kekadang dah tak tau dah graph tu nak buat bentuk apa laie dah, bende yg sama jek tetiap bulan, tapi best :D.

Hari ni hati sungguh tenang,sejuk jer rasa hati. Tak tahu kenapa, tapi alhamdulillah Allah anugerahkan rasa ketenangan itu dalam diri. Seringkali diri terkejar2 mengejar masa untuk buat itu dan ini, kadang-kadang sukar rasa tenang itu menjenguk diri dek asyik sibuk memikirkan hal-hal yang entah apa pentingnya (penting jugak sebenarnya, study penting, keje penting, nak capai akhirat, dunia kena settlekan jugak,kan? Dunia nikan jambatan kita ke akhirah, apa yang kita tanam di dunia ini, di akhirat sana kita tuai hasilnya, betul,kan? ;)

Semalam seorang diri melihat VCD Kembara Bumi Anbiya'ketika sedang menyiapkan laporan mesyuarat pengurusan, sesungguhnya, dan sesungguhnya rasa rindu untuk merasa kembali pengalaman dan keseronokan itu datang kembali, melihat Kak Lin menangis ketika kami selesai melawat Masjidil Nabawi membuat hati sungguh sayu, melihat pusara Rasulullah, Allahu Akbar, rindunya, rindunya untuk ke situ lagi.Pasti sahabat2 yang lain merasa perkara yang sama, melihat keseronokan kami melawat piramid,menaiki unta, menaiki bot merentasi Sungai Nil,melawat masjid Imam Syafi'e dan Saiyidina Hussin, melawat Gua Al-Kahfi, berjumpa dengan pelajar2 kita di sana, bersama menyalutkan diri dengan garam Laut Mati di muka dan tangan, mengerjakan ibadah umrah bersama-sama, bershopping sakan dengan Aina, Sam dan Halim ketika di Mekah hehe, dan teringat waktu malam-malam di bilik hotel di Mekah, ada sorang tukan, time kita sumer tgh enak tidur, dia cakap sorang-sorang kat telefon selubung bawah selimut..haaaa, saper tuh?? Hehe, siapa makan gula, dialah rasa manisnya,kan? Hehe, mmg manis pun pengalaman itu :)

Di kembara itu kami belajar ttg rasa setiakawan, secara jujur di dalam pengembaraan ini hampir-hampir me dan Ika bergaduh kerana masing-masing malas nak bawa ubat dan mask hospital yang memberatkan beg masing-masing kalau hendak pergi ke mana-mana.Time tu mmg rasa mcm mmg tak puas hati jek, tapi alhamdulillah, kami bertahan,start tak puas hati pada awal pagi kami sampai dari Jordan Ika dah start kena bawak first aid kit, pastu dia minta tolong bawakkan some stuff, n biasalah kalau kita pergi berjalan, takde kuasa nak bawa beg berat2, so me mcm rasa tak ikhlas jek nak tolong. Hampir2 bergaduh, tapi kami sama2 pendam, sampai pada malam kami balik dari melawat Masjid Hussin dan piramid, rasa selfish tu hilang. Alhamdulillah, betul-betul pengembaraan itu mencabar persahabatan kami, dan kami berjaya atasinya, kan Ika kan? :)

Ika jenis seorang yang penyabar, n mmg setiap kali kami bersalah faham, dia tetap treat me yang for me kalau pk pk mcm tak masuk akal. Cthnya, dulu ada satu kali kami bergaduh ttg apa ntah, that morning tu i had an exam, Ika siap sediakan my breakfast walaupun kami tgh gaduh time tu! Cuba bayangkan, baik sgt my bestfriend ni, kalau me demam dia masakkan bubur nasi, mana nak dapat kawan baik mcm ni? Same to the rest of my geng, Siha pemuisi hebat , Jie budak kenit pertama yg comey, Farah sahabat sehati sejiwa tempat hendak menceritakan masalah dan dapatkan panduan, Hany budak kenit kedua yang comey jugak merangkap kembar bukan seibu sebapa kepada Jie, Aida & Aini, si kembar yang selalu jadi rakan stay up waktu jadi housemate kat Melaka dulu, Ayu yang motherly,Aina yang nakal hoho(sayang ko sgt2 Aina :), Yati n geng2 Accounting yang byk tolong waktu me jadi Exco SRC dulu (ni mmg bebetul terhutang budi ngan derang, sungguh sungguh terhutang budi :),ntah ramai lagi ler, tak terbalas segala budi mereka :)

Barakallahu fiikum atas jalinan ukhuwah yang antum hulurkan, tak terbalas budi rasanya, hanya Allah yang dapat membalasnya :)

Ok guys, perlu berundur sbb nak ke Shah Alam melawat Kak Fari sambil dgr usrah, lama tak join usrah Kak Fari (consultant kami ke Delegasi dulu)

Semoga antum dapat keberkahan hidup dunia wa akhirah, insya Allah.

Assalamualaikum :)

The 7 Wonders of Us

Assalamualaikum wbt,

(1) Kak Aza's wedding

Subhanallah walhamdulillah, a very2 good news that i received this morning fi Abg Faizal's blog, the announcement of waleemah for Kak Aza and Abg Amir, hehe, akhirnyaaaa..menjadi juga gossip2 kami for both of them, since i was in first year dulu kami gossipkan especially when we were at the sekolah pondok together bersama arwah Kak Nuun and geng2 kami yang lain, and akhirnya menjadi.


Aaaaa, bestnya bestnya, alhamdulillah :)

Sejak dari dulu lagi kami gossipkan, akhirnya menjadi jua, about 6 years jugak kot menunggu resultnya. Best best.Mubasyirun jiddan ana al yaum, alhamdulillah :)

Mabrook juga pada Bro Fadzlan untuk waleemahnya pada 4/6 ni juga, 2 days before my birthday which will be on 6/6/2005 (hint for my birthday sebenarnya ni hehe)


(2) Exam Finance

Alhamdulillah, the paper was quite easy for me, and for the first time of my life, i let my paper to be copied by others hoho. Actually kat MMU dulu tak pernah laie ler meniru, tapi during our exam tu i sat next to my former groupmate Azrul, dia tetiba blank and minta hint how to solve 2 problems, takkan ler ngan geng pun nak berkirakan, so bagi je ler my answer to him. At any desperation point of our life, sometimes we tend to do something that we don't usually do, and in this case, i think Azrul had become so desperate that he asked for my answer. Ye ler, mid term carry 30% of our total marks for Finance subject, agak takut juga kalau tak score in mid term, especially for MBA, our passing mark is B, not like what we had in degree dulu where our passing mark was much lower. Alhamdulillah i was quite confident with this paper instead of OM, hope to excell for both of the subjects this semester.



(3) Sesi lepak bersama bestfriend, Tikot

Sedang sibuk menghadamkan subject OM(Operation Mgmt) dlm class, tetiba dapat msg Ika kata nak jumpa. Yeah, i should meet her sbb dah lama giler kami tak hang out and spend masa together.Lagipun dah habis mid term for OM and Finance,and pasni mungkin akan jadi lebih sibuk since nak kena kejar due dates for several projects and presentations, so I asked her to get dressed cepat and get herself to KLCC so that i can treat her lunch and cari magazine. We had so much fun yesterday at KLCC where i treated Ika and she was excitedly bercerita ttg God-knows-what-was-it-at-the-first-place ( i couldn't reveal here since Ika won't let me do that hehe), dah lama tak nampak dia over excited mcm tu sejak dia pindah Menara and i was caught in work and study hectics for the past 9 months, it was nice to see your bestfriend so cheerful and excitedly told you stories that you had missed for months, it was really nice.It was REALLY NICE, alhamdulillah. Happy to see her and we had the chance to talk like what we used to have before, tell our private stories that other people might doesn't know and perhaps dun care pun, it was such a relief to me and i hope the same thing apply to her also, i hope :)

We spent about 2 hours in KLCC, then we searched for my magazine and i was craving to search for Islamica, unfortunately it was no more available in the bookstore. Rugi rugi tak beli awal2 dulu.Mmg mahal sket magazine ni, RM 30, tapi takpe ler kan, utk ilmu tak perlu nak berkira sgt. So pastu we went to Menara since Ika need to settle several things in her office, so i spent myself lavishly reading magazines that i bought last month tapi tak sempat nak habiskan baca, and sempat baca 5 pages of Angels and Demons by Dan Brown (the author yang sesat lagi menyesatkan) and know what, Ika is learning Arabic now. Yeay!!!!!!!!!!!!, so skang ni dah ada kawan bercakap. Let me tell ya, Ika's ustaz best sgt sbb dia ajar Arabic dgn gitar and lagu yg dia cipta sendiri, bestnya bestnya dapat ustaz mcm ni, unorthodox approach i would say. I never come across any subject yang diajar menggunakan lagu dan gitar dalam kelas kecuali kelas muzik waktu sekolah rendah dulu hehe.Siapa sangka ada ustaz yang akan ajar Arabic guna gitar dan lagu yang dicomposed sendiri, best best. Ustaz from UIA, Abdul Naser rasanya nama ustaz ni. Sesaper yang nak belajar Arabic, boleh kot join kelas Ika, serious best :)

And know what, the first complete Arabic sentence that she had constructed and told me for the first time last nite was:

Sodiqee al majnunah --> Kawan lelaki saya seorang perempuan gila.

Sabar je ler, nasib baik dia salah grammar kalau dia nak tujukan pada me pun,tapi rasanya mmg dia tujukan pada me pun at the first place hehe, but i corrected her sentence to be:

Sodiqatee al majnunah --> Kawan perempuan saya seorang yang gila.

Best best, my bestfriend has upgraded herself, alhamdulillah. And now i think it is the time for me to construct sentences that i can use to revenge and usik dia, later yer Ika, later you'll see muahaha. Next session, i will take my revenge hoho :P


Luper pula nak bagitau yang kami terjumpa Hafiz Terengganu waktu tgh beli Cinnabon kat KLCC, tetengah tergelak beli Cinnabon tu, tetiba dgr suara lelaki bagi salam. We turned our back and saw Hafiz with his siblings, sempat bertukar2 cerita and he gave us his business card. Hampir nak terkeluar biji mata biler baca his business card:

Mohd Hafiz bin Harun
Chartered Accountant
Ernst & Young

Uwaaa..bertuah betul Hafiz ni, dah keje kat Big 4 of audit firms tu, betullah orang kata, rezeki Allah di mana-mana, eventhough dia tak sempat nak completekan study di MMU dulu pun, but he still manage to be someone that i think he wants to be and now he is performing in the Big 4 di Terengganu. Alhamdulillah semua sahabat2 berjaya, happy for them too actually :)

Hafiz tanya, me and Ika mmg jenis tak berpisah ker kalau pegi memana, everytime mesti bersama jek. Hehe, soalan yang dah banyak kali kami dengar, and penat nak jawab. Tapi kami jawab jugak "Actually kami dah lama tak jumpa Fiz, dah berbulan2 rasanya, ni ler baru sekali nak spend masa together hehe". Mmg me and Ika selalu bersama becoz we are bestfriend, sama jugak mcm Aina and Ain, Mafus and Sam.Masing2 ada partner sendiri, and ada grouping sendiri :)

Ika and I lepak di KL Sentral for dinner, pastu berpisah.Yesterday was nice, my day was completed with a big sense of HAPPINESS in my heart :)



(4) The 7 Wonders of the Ancient World

On last Saturday in NST atau kat Malay Mail (skang ni kat my house pelbagai newspapers dibeli dlm sehari, tak ingat dah i found the article kat paper mana), i came across an article about the The 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, and it listed these items as the 7 Wonders:

1. The Great Pyramid of Giza
2. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
3. The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
4. The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
5. The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
6. The Colossus of Rhodes
7. The Lighthouse of Alexandria

All these wonders has been long-abolished due to earthquakes except for The Pyramid of Giza (hehe, ingat lagi kita pi Kembara Bumi Anbiya' reramai pi tgk piramid fi Misra dulu kan geng2 DCBA :D), and now the commitee of 7 Wonders is proposing for the new 7 Wonders based on the technological and innovation aspects of each items being proposed, and some of them are the Great Wall of China, The Taj Mahal and Menara Pissa yang condong tu, and ada juga pencalonan for Petronas Twin Tower, but when i vetted thru the other nominations, i would say our Petronas Twin Tower is having quaite a slim chance to be selected since the rest of nominations are much better.

It seems that the world has its own wonders, and now lets ponder to ourselves:

We do have our own wonders and specialities in ourselves, don't we?

Now perhaps we could start thinking and establishing our own 7 Wonders, for instance The & Wonders of Iena, which perhaps can be listed as:

1. The Analytical Thinking of Me
2. The Tough Hardside but Soft Inside of Me
3. bla bla bla

See, it's easy to establish your own 7 Wonders, isn't it?

Let us identify and establish our own 7 Wonders, and in order to do that, indirectly the opportunity to learn about yourself and traits, strength and weaknesses that you posses will be widely opened,and let us be grateful for whatever we have and being created as for now to Allah then, as He is the Best Creator among the creators.

:)

To someone that i know and you-know-who-you-are, be patient as perancangan Allah is the best plan that best suited for you and also the the rest of us,eventhough we dun get something/someone/whatever things in life, there must be hikmah behind it, insya Allah. Be strong always as who you are used to be, and insyallah everything will get fine sooner or later, Allah knows best for us :)

In relief eventhough not in total

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Alhamdulillah,alhamdulillah, my job was completed this morning.

From last week, i had to prepare reporting and statistics for our MCM Fraud meeting this morning, and the meeting went well, again alhamdulillah :)

This is my second time being in the meeting since my first time when i was replacing Kak Fida's place during her maternity leave for 2 months last year. I really stressed out while preparing GM's presentation slide at that time becoz i didn't know the direction, and i just copied whatever data being put by Kak Fida before she went for leave.I went back home very late with GM's PA and Dz every nite for about 1 week, and we came to the office during weekend, just to finish up the presentation slides.

But alhamdulillah this time i am quite fully prepared and i know the direction a lil bit, hopefully can improve better for the next meeting, insya Allah. Bestnyaaaaaaaa dah habis presentation, despite of my pressure yesterday to cope with my GM's request to have this and that by yesterday evening that need a lot of calculations and data from different group in my division, and at one time i get so stressed that i cried a lil bit when i get to know that the data given previously to me was wrong at the first place.Heck! By a slight difference of figures could lead to a disaster to me since it will affect all computations and graphs that i had prepared before, and therefore i have to use my creative accounting skill to accommodate the difference of new figures given by one of managers.

Memang bebetul time tu rasa mcm nak marah jek,and nak jek cakap next time kalau nak bagi data, make sure ler data tu betul,kalau meetingnya another 2 days lagi ker takpe ler, ni esok! Mana sempat nak tukar figure and nak analyse balik everything.I was not willing and decided not to change my data and presentation slide yang berjumlah 48 slides tu just for one figure. (Hehe, i know, kalau Audit tau ni, mesti tak setuju, tapi apa nak buat, the presentation is scheduled this morning and the wrong data was only identified yesterday evening, nak tak nak kena proceed juga).

But me baik jugalaa, i informed my GM that i have to play with the figure a lil bit, just for the sake of MCM Fraud meeting, and i will alter back the exact figure for our real division performance nanti. Bebetul menggunakan skill Accounting utk buat fraud for statistic division sendiri hehe.Tak substantial pun figurenya, tapi being an Accountant yg bebetul diajar utk mementingkan accuracy, mmg bengang jugak ler semalam biler dapat tau data salah. But nice, everything went fine today, alhamdulillah :)

Nampak Miss Ika with her proclaimed orange shirt(but me cm nampak dia pakai baju coklat) when i was heading to bilik mesyuarat Dato' this morning, tak sempat nak panggil or whatsoever, my meeting is much more important compared to her! (I know i know, Ika mesti bengang jek baca nih ekeke, sorry Tikot, memain jek, you are among the most important people in my life, seriously :).

And this afternoon my name has changed to Nufayl, Pn Hany dengan sesuka hatinya memanggil me as Nufayl waktu makan bersama kat Menara Maybank tadi. Tau ler rindu kat anak,siap sampai boleh panggil my name as Nufayl, isk isk, kronik betul masalah ibu rindukan anak ni hehe.Relax Hany, Nufayl selamat insya Allah, and we met Abg Jas tadi during lunch, sakan gelak jumpa dia, lama tak jumpa, asyik gelak je ler. Abg Jas ada cadangan power, Hany sanggup tak Hany nak go for idea Abg Jas tadi? Hehe, sure Hany tak nak nyer huhu :D

Buka paper kejap tadi, terbaca kes Nor Hedayah yang berhenti sekolah sbb tak nak bebankan sesiapa. And last statement yg membuat me berbara at the last line of the article is:

Newly-appointed State Welfare Department director Kassim Yunus said: " I will send my officers to interview the family."

Hello, we have paid our taxes to our dearly government(not me ler, i'm not qualified to pay tax lagi sbb gaji tak cecah tahap minimum bayar tax), and you still have guts to say that you want to interview the family?!! For God's sake, she needs help here! Physically proven that she is handicapped, and her family is not rich, and still wanna say that you want to interview the family? Bagi je ler bantuan, sekeh nanti baru tau! Kekadang rasa mcm derang ni makan gaji buta jer everytime i looked at those peminta sedekah kat KL ni, apa Welfare tak ambil apa2 tindakan ker nak assist these people to get better life??

Ok ok, dun get too emosional iena, i think you better work in politics so that you can change all these. Haha, not interested though, but i do care these type of people that need help the most.Kesian derang.

Ok ok, end of the topic, as i have said in my title above, i had relieved some of my burdens. But i do have the half since i have Finance exam on this becoming Saturday. Pray for my success k.

Utk sahabat bergaduh (anak2 ikan), jgn jeles kat ana yer, kak yumni sayang ana ngan naga ana muahaha (gelak jahat),hehe astaghfirullah astaghfirullah, tak tsiqah langsung iena nih! Tak kire, nak kenakan Cpol jugak. Anyway Paiji and Ahmad, tunggu giliran antuma nanti k, tau ler ana nak kenakan antuma nanti :P

Lagi satu, tak puas hati apsal my YM and MSN Messenger tak dpt online seminggu ni, kena sabotaj ker apa? (Attention utk Numa2 atau org tkt 4 :D)

Nasiyya

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Ahh..sudah banyak sgt saya bermain-main, sudah byk masa saya entah ke mana perginya.

Seminggu ini, saya sebegitu leka dgn lagu-lagu kesukaan saya di usia muda saya dulu, ketika belasan dan awal dua puluhan.

Saya lupa, ada hiburan yang lebih utama.

Saya lupa, ada perkara yang lebih berkehendakkan tumpuan dan tenaga saya.

Al Insan, mengambil kata root word nasiyya bererti lupa.

Insan mmg sifatnya selalu pelupa, mengikut selari maksud istilahnya jua.

Terima kasih teman-teman kerana mengingatkan. Barakallahu fiikum.

Wassalam

Sehari di rumah

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Semalam mengambil urgent leave, sbb bebetul rasa tak larat nak bangun pegi ofis since malam sebelumnya hanya tidur 2 jam utk prepare exam pada pagi Ahad.

Paper kali ini rasanya satu kelas tak bersedia, cuba bayangkan pada pukul 3 pagi, my phone rang for 3 4 times sbb classmates telefon tanya itu dan ini.Sadis sadis.

Selepas exam, balik rumah ingat nak terus qadha tidur, tapi ada tetamu datang, tak manis ler pulak utk tidur. Tahan jer mata sampai dah nak Maghrib baru tetamu pulang. Ended up me get to sleep pukul 11 malam, the next day tak larat nak bangun.

Sepanjang hari di rumah, kemas itu ini, memasak utk lunch and dinner (huhu, rasa bangga pulak sbb me mmg jarang masak kat umah, balik2 jer mmg makanan dah tersedia :D), pastu tgk TV instead of baca buku or whatsoever.Nani my younger sis asyik tanya mcm mana nak buat aacount ni and itu.Dia tgh takut skang ni sbb akan sit SPM tahun ni, kekadang marah jugak ngan dia nih,last year byk main hoki and bola jaring for her school sampai tak dpt nak catch up syllabus,skang dah tak reti camner nak buat.

Me yg dah lama tinggalkan basic account boleh jugak ler membantu walaupun ada lupa2 sket pasal format etc, nasib baik my younger bro yg balik praktikal dari UUM byk ajar dia. Kekadang before ajar dia tu, sajer jek nag dia before ajar, nasib baik dia ni jenis bukan cepat menangis mcm kakak dia Ira, lepas kena marah pun bleh muka selamba tanya "Angah, ni mcm mana nak buat? Nani tak tau..", tergelak dibuatnya kekadang, kita tgh memarah ni dia boleh buat muka selamba dia jek. Hehe.

My younger bro Ili byk buat kejutan to me sejak dia balik rumah dr UKM ni, dia extend satu semester utk satu subject yang dia dpt result teruk sbb dia demam teruk for viral fever dulu.Takpelah, extend satu semester jer. Best jugak dia berada di rumah. Mmg me terkejut sgt2 biler tgk dia memasak di rumah.Terkedu habis. "Ili masak?!, biar betul adik aku nih!".

Terkejut sbb dulu dia adalah seorang adik yang mmg menganggap kerje memasak, mengemas rumah, membasuh pinggan tu adalah kerja2 perempuan, walaupun my father used to do all those chores especially memasak. My father is no 1 in cooking for me.Dulu kecil2 selalu gaduh dgn Ili sbb dia tak nak buat keje2 tu, katanya tu sumer keje perempuan. Tapi biler tgk dia memasak, sedap pulak tuh,mmg tak tau nak kata apa dlm hati.Ingatkan dia memasak sekali jer, rupanya my mum kalau tak sempat memasak dinner sbb nak pergi mengajar di surau, she will ask Ili to cook, and he did!Waaa, kagumnya ngan adik sorang nih. Alhamdulillah, his experience belajar di UKM byk mengajar dia mcm mana nak uruskan hal2 rumah, sampai my youngest sis mengusik, "Abg Ili ni actually tgh practice ni Ngah, nak kahwin ler katakan lepas study ni, hoho".

Semalam kami memasak sama-sama,tgh makan tu sempat tanya dia, mana dia belajar memasak and selalu ker dia masak kat umah sewa dia dulu. Dia kata mmg tetiap hari memsak kecuali time exam sbb mmg jimat kalau masak sendiri. Derang ada giliran utk memasak, and dia selalu komen kawan dia kalau memasak macam rupa tak nak masak. So i asked him, mcm mana memasak mcm tak nak masak tu, dia kata let say mcm lauk asam pedas tu, kalau kawan dia tak goreng dulu ikan tu before masukkan dlm gulai asam pedas, kiranya pemalas ler tu. Erkkk..me kalau masak asam pedas pun tak goreng ikan, masuk je ler terus dlm gulai sbb mmg itu yg diajar oleh my mum, boleh pulak my brother kata tu keje org malas. Sabar je ler,pasni kena be careful kalau nak memasak kat umah, skang ni dah ada chef lelaki yg rajin mengomen masakan org kat umah huhu.

Supposedly today i'm on leave, tapi tak sanggup nak duduk kat rumah sbb asyik makan jek, tak tau apsal asyik rasa lapar jer. Agaknya sbb badan dan otak tgh relax, takde bende yg nak dikejar mcm kalau kita keje kat office nak siapkan itu ini sampai kekadang rasa tak nak makan sbb nak siapkan keje, kat umah semalam my keje mmg asyik makan jer. Tak sanggup rasa mcm tu lagi, pagi ni bersiap ler jugak nak pi keje, nak update meeting for Fraud MCM, pastu nak ke library KLSE depan office ni utk study Finance hehe.

This morning bangun awal giler, kol 4 pagi dah duduk depan meja study Finance sambil buka radio IKIM. Allah, lamanya tak dgr zikrullah when i used to listen biler ke kelas Arabic dulu. I has decided to resume my Arabic study next semester, i'm dying to finish the course actually. Rindu giler rasanya. Lagipun alhamdulillah, my new job dah banyak concentrate pada keje2 dlm office berbanding dulu, lebih mencabar tapi lebih byk memberikan ruang dan flexibility to me.After 2 years, yup, after 2 years waiting for a job that relates to Accounting, and now i get more than i want initially. I'm doing the business planning and reporting currently, and that's more exciting to me since it will test my capability in deciding direction of my division,together with all my high management of course.Kekadang rasa menyesal naper ler dulu waktu report duty to Telekom and ketika dalam proses pembahagian placement, i didn't request to go for Financial and Management Analysis (FMA), sbb time tu takut susah nak buat since kat MMU dulu, subject analysis ni mmg mcm susah sket, kalau terima dulu, sure i'm in Finance Division skang ni, mungkin tgh buat ACCA instead of MBA utk kejar title Chartered Accountant hehe, tapi apa pun, i should be grateful sbb for whatever pun, Allah has decides the best for me. Mungkin kalau me was being placed in Finance Division at the first place dulu, i won't learn about most of operational parts in TM, won't have the chance to travel around Malaysia, won't have the opportunity to befriended with my best officemates in FMD here that had taught me so many things about life, and perhaps i dun have the opportunity to be the business planner here. I like do planning,suka buat keje2 yg memerlukan pk pk ni, otak rasanya berjalan jer and tak stagnant,and banyak perkara baru yang kita belajar instead of operational job semata-mata. After this, my target is to jump into Internal Audit or Finance Division if i have the chance within next 4 to 5 years since i have experience in handling fraud which suites to Audit requirements, and business and budget planning for Finance, insya Allah. Mana tahu next 15 yrs leh jadi BOD Telekom ,kan?Hehe, berangan jer yer Zurina nih ;)



Hanya terdapat dua jalan sahaja yang terbentang di hadapan setiap manusia. Satu darinya ialah jalan yang mana penghujungnya ialah (keredhaan) Allah swt. Penghujung bagi jalan yang satu lagi ialah kehancuran dan penyesalan. Tidak ada jalan lain yang dapat dipilih oleh setiap insan untuk dilaluinya selain dari dua jalan ini.

Usrah

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Hari ni tak disangka-sangka my online sister in UK (i never meet her before, but she was a tutor in UIA before she went to UK), dia tanya khabar and satu soalan cepu emas yang tersangat mahal nilainya keluar..

"Bagaimana dgn usrah?"

Aaaaaaaaaa, soalan yang paling2 sukar untuk dijawab sekarang ni.

Mmg dah lama tak join usrah mana-mana, since ada jek perkara yg timbul time org jemput utk join usrah. Ada exam ler, ada presentation ler, ada etc etc. Banyak sungguh alasan!

Habis nak buat mcm mana, i have things and priorities to do! :( (Alasan lagi :D)

Hmm..terpaksa menyusun langkah dan jadual kembali utk cari masa join usrah.Semalam call Kak Asiah, dia kata dia try arrange usrah Nisa kat area Vista Angkasa,kalau boleh nak gather bebudak UTP, MMU, UKM dan UM kat sana. Best jugak, lebih ramai lebih bagus. Bebudak MMU pun ramai yg stay kat Vista Angkasa tu.Pasni leh heret bebudak ni turun join usrah Nisa hehe (Laili and the geng kat Vista Angkasa minta bersedia yer :D.

Till now k, i have works to do, tomorrow my GM want to see my presentation slide for MCM Fraud Meeting next week, and this becoming Sunday i have my mid term for Operation Management.Need to transform my self to become a bookworm for this week and next week, next week i have mid term for Finance pula :)

Pray for my success k!

Erti Hidup

Artis : DAYANG NURFAIZAH
Lagu : Erti Hidup

Lirik: Aflin Shauki (Principal Connection (M) Sdn. Bhd.

Angin kau membawa bahteraku kemana mahumu...

Dikamar daku sering bertanya
Mana tempatku di dunia
Tepuk dada tanyalah selera

Jika daku ingin berjasa
Memberikan hidupku makna
Tepuk dada tanyalah selera

Korus:
Inginku(kiniku) mengenali
Erti hidup yang diberi
Dunia jadi saksi
Liku-liku kan ku harungi oh...

Tidak lagi kan ku disitu
Menyaksikan kehidupan berlalu
Kan ku kerah darah keringatku

Tiba waktu aku tiada
Tidak akan daku sesali
Daku hidup caraku sendiri

Angin kan ku bawa bahteraku
Kemana mahuku
Kini ku berani mengemudi
Kemana ku pergi

Bagai guruh bergegar bumi
Aku tetap teguh berdiri
Penuh pengorbanan yang sejati


Hehe, mcm tersuka kat lagu ni, so bear with me ya!! :D

Wassalam

I am so LURVEDD!!

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Actually, starting from early this year, my mum had declared that she won't cook for dinner anymore for us, since byk makanan dia basi sbb kitorang tak makan.

I threatened mildly her once "Kalau ibu tak masak, nanti iena makan kat luar hari-hari"

My mum answered "Takpe, lebih baik mcm tu dr sakit hati tgk makanan tak berluak padahal dah penat2 masak". Hehe, ibuku sudah merajuk :D

Bukan kitorang tak nak makan, me sometimes balik lewat kalau ada discussion or nak siapkan keje kat ofis,biler balik penat sgt utk makan unless lapar sgt. My younger sisters and Along pun mcm tu jugak. Furthermore, ibu suka masak gulai ikan cili api yg kami kurang nak makan sbb bosan makan lauk tu, dr kecik sampai besar lauk tu jerlaa ibu suka masak. Naper ibu suka masak? Sebab dia tahu ayah kitorang takkan makan sgt kalau lauk gulai ikan cili api tu takde.Ayah tak minat sgt makan kari, asam pedas, sup2 or whatsoever, nak jugak gulai ikan masak cili api.

Kalau rajin, kami goreng ler telur ke apa ker utk makan nasi, tapi tak sentuh gulai ikan sgt. End up either nasi atau lauk gulai tu akan basi atau tersimpan di fridge for 2 3 days. Mengamuk ler ibu, penat dia masak.

Jadinya mmg me kalau balik akan telefon rumah dulu tanya ibu masak ker tidak, kalau tidak i have to resort to any fast food restaurant (sbb malas nak masak, penat aa, balik keje nak kena masak hoho, i'm sure working mothers like Hany, Aida and Aini won't agree with me hoho)

Tapi skang ni the situation has changed since my younger bro from UKM lepak di umah bercuti 3 bulan sebelum nak habiskan final semester and my younger bro from UUM sedang balik bercuti utk practical for 6 months (tak tau ler apsal lama sgt practical dia nih), so most of the day skang ni mmg my mum masak for dinner.And lagi satu, sejak ibu mengajar mengaji di surau, so dia ada penty of time jugaklah utk kami kat umah berbanding dulu.

So last 2 nites, she had cooked nasi dagang special for us. I didn't have the chance to eat it since i got into sleep rite after solat Isyak (my Along dah kata dah jgn lepak atas katil, nanti tertidur, i encountered her that i said i'm not going to sleep, just baca2 paper only on the bed, last-last terlena padahal ibu dah hidang nasi dagang time tu, terjaga balik kol 4 pagi, punyerlaa lama tidur.Dah terjaga tu, siap pk nak study ker tak, last2 rasa malas and sambung tidur huhu)

So last nite habis buat finalization of FMD Corporate Video kat tempat Keyrul sampai Maghrib, solat maghrib pastu ajak DZ and Kak Imah dinner sbb dah tak tahan sgt lapar. Biler balik, tgk Ili (my younger bro) sdg dinner, dia kata best, tapi me yg dah full mcm malas nak makan sbb dah kenyang.Pastu my younger sis Ira pulak balik terus makan nasi dagang, dia pun kata best, so i tried ler sikit.

Ya Allah, sedapnya ibu masak. I went to dapur and cari nasi dagang and i dunno what to call this lauk daging, either it was soup or gulai kurma, but my mum said both were wrong, dia kata special lauk for nasi dagang. Pastu i opened my fridge and there, my rainbow pudding that my mum had reserved for me, i guess ler since the previous nite i dun have the chance to taste it. Best best. Tengah2 makan tu, terasa disayangi pulak hohoh.

Ibu dulu every weekend sure buat something special for us, but that was before kami sumer berpecah2 ke serata Semenanjung Malaysia ni, ada yg kat utara, ada yg kat selatan. So mcm missed jugak ler ibu masak2 special ni kecuali time Raya.


One thing i realized,there are several food that i would like my mum cook and i dare ask nobody to touch the ingredients except for my mum. I like to eat gulai keladi masak cili api campur ikan bilis yg mum buat. Best sgt, won't trade it for something else hehe.Lagi satu kalau ibu buat sambal, mesti best. Kekadang pelik apsal biler i buat mesti tak sama ngan ibu nyer,padahal ingredients, cara masak sama jek. Hmm...nak kena conduct CSI investigation camnih heheh.


One thing yg kelakar sbb skang ni my mum dah mengajar mengaji, so anak2 murid dia panggil dia ustazah, kami pulak yg tak biasa. Pastu ada anak2 murid dia yg nama Zulaikha dan Zulhilmi, apa lagi, my mum treat these 2 kids mcm anak sendiri, kalau salah jer my mum jadi sedikit ter'over' emosional sbb dia mcm regards bebudak ni as anak2 dia sbb nama derang sama to my younger sis and younger bro, Eqa and Imi. Ya Allah, dgr my mum bercerita mcm mana dia garang kat bebudak ni kalau derang tak dtg atau dtg lambat, ngeri giler. Kalau me, mesti tak nak ngaji dah hehe. My mum said dia mcm terasa ada connection ngan bebudak ni sbb nama derang sama ngan anak2 dia.Yg lagi klakar, one day tu my mum buat agar2 utk sumer anak2 murid dia, my mum boleh siap bagi extra kat 2 budak ni sbb kira treat special dia regards as anak2 sendiri, tapi biler dah balik umah menyesal sbb bagi tak fair treatment to the rest. Some times biler marah waktu mengajar these 2 kids, my mum mcm tercakap "Kan IBU dah kata,oopss... kan ustazah dah kata..". Ekeke, sadis jugak aa jadi bebudak 2 org ni, my mum bagi extra care kat derang,sometimes she tends to become more garang and become more baik to them hohoh. Nasib baik takde nama murid lain yg serupa to my name ker, my sis ker, my other younger bro Ili ker, Ira, Erni atau Aida. Kalau tak, derang pun senasib kena deraan mental ngan my mum kekeke. Kesian jek dengar, tapi my mum said dia tak leh nak buat apa, sbb nama sama so dia mmg jaga bebetul budak 2 org nih hoho.

Pagi tadi ada 2 org anak murid ibu dtg umah nak something, derang cakap, "Akak, ustazah nak kain petak2 kecil" Haa...ustazah?? huhu, terpaksalaa terima realiti org panggil my mum ustazah kekeke.


Ok guys,need to concentrate on my job plak pasni, apa pun nak cakap, happy sbb skang ni buat keje i suka, and happy sbb ada happy family. Grateful to Allah :)

Wassalam.

High risk to get high return

Assalamualaikum wbt,

This semester i am taking Operation Management and Finance. Finance is the most unfavorable subject to me due to its extensive mathematical calculations and formulas, and i hate maths!!

So to speak, i hate Finance too hoho.

The best thing about this subject is my Prof who is very knowledgable and make efforts to explain to us about a lot of things related to financial world that i never acrossed before (for instance Gold Dinar and etc), and yeah, now i have a financial calculator that can count multiple categories of loans, name it and i can calculate it straight away, using this calculator hohoh.

Notes: You can pay me RM 1 per caculation requested since the calculator that i'm using now is very expensive, huh its price is RM 165 and i believe i will use it only for 3 months!!Huhu :D

One new fact that we have learnt in this course is that the conventional bank and islamic bank has not so much difference in terms of operating, since both are creating loans from nothing (money on paper only). But Prof has emphasized that the economical impact of these 2 loan systems are different, since in islamic system we treat the excess payment that we pay to the bank as total profit, meanwhile in conventional bank, the excess payment is treated as interest. Therefore the total impact and accounting treatment of these transactions are different. And what is the difference? I could not answer since i have not ask that to my Prof yet, but i am interested to know what is it actually.Later k.

The most astonishing part that we have encounter when we are dealing with loans calculations is that, when we want to pay earlier the total loans that we acquire from banks, the total balance payment calculated by Islamic banks are much2 higher than the conventional banks, which had sparked a consensus by us as the students that it is much better to make borrowings from conventional bank rather than islamic banks when it comes to early payment. When we ask our Prof whether do we have any options since we want to avoid the riba, he said that if our islamic bank give us loan based on the 'real money', not the ones which get created of nothing at the first place, then it is ok to go for islamic banks.The problem nowadays is that islamic banks do not practice that, and actually for middle east countries, the Bai al-Bitaman Ajil(BBA) concept is not accepted. They will go for Musharakah Mutanakisah Partnership (MMP) which is implemented by having the bank to buy the asset at the first place, then only they will sell to consumers at a marked-up price, provided both parties agree on the total sale proceeds.

I dun want to make an impression to you that conventional bank is better, since at this point of time i am yet to study the impact and the difference of these 2 banks make on the economy. Nanti ada org ambil bulat2 whatever i write here as your base to make loans from conventional.Wait till i finish study the impact and the differences of these 2 banking systems k :)

To get high return, you must prepare to face higher risk (this is a very popular concept in financial subjects especially when it comes to stock and asset valuations). And i'm doing it now for my life, dun ask what types of risk and return that i'm going for at this moment, but i believe if my intention is pure, insya Allah the return that i will get is sufficient for me for dunya wa akhirah. (Hoho, i know most of you dun understand what the heck i'm talking about, but dun worry, this is for my own understanding :).

Wassalam
