.untuk terakhir kali kah?.

aku rasa nak pakai link blog baru la.

kalau ada la antara engkorang yang baca ni (kot ade la yang baca blog aku ni hihi) teringin terus membaca penulisan emosi aku lagi, sila la minta link blog baru aku di ruangan komen. kalau jadik la aku buat blog baru, aku bagitau okay. tinggalkan email address anda utk terima kasih syg dari aku gehehehe.

aku dah delete stegerem dgn twitter (buat akaun baru pulak tu hahaha). jadi aku nak buat benda yang sama untuk blog. iaitu dengan tidak lagi menggunakan makansiput (sedih betul aku ni).

terima kasih kepada yang masih membaca penulisan emosi aku bersama makansiput. di sini aku kuburkan nama makansiput.

.

pernah sekali tu, aku tengah kecewa dalam percintaan. lepas tu meroyan sikit. nampak macam gila-gila bersama rakan. tapi dalam hati, Allah yg tahu.
tengah meroyan sorang-sorang, tiba-tiba ada sorang hamba Allah (member sebenarnya) tanya, "kau ok x ni?"
others enjoyed (or actually felt disgusted. ehe) with me at that time.

terharu kejap.

dah 3 tahun setengah rupanya.

bff aku yang sorang tu pun nak kahwin dah. semenjak berita dia nak kahwin tiba di pandangan aku (sbb dia mesej kat fb), macam-macam memori dan kenangan lalu terimbau kembali. rindunya aku pada dia :( . semoga diberi kesempatan untuk spend masa kejap before dia kahwin. huhuhu.

lepas tu, mengimbau imbau tak habis-habis sampai baca balik 'nota-nota' lama aku. baru tersedar yang aku pun melalui zaman kegelian dalam percintaan bila baca semula apa yg aku sempat taipkan. hahahahahahaha. gile emosi. kalau aku yang sekarang jumpa aku yang dulu, dah tentu-tentu aku siku je aku.

hurm. dalam bab perasaan terhadap orang lain sebenarnya aku lebih reserved. sebab pada aku, what happen between the two should be between just the two. banyak kesilapan dan perbuatan bodoh yang aku buat sebelum ni yang kalau aku ni jenis bercinta mesti bersama member sekali, mesti aku dah kena ceramah habis-habisan. haha. kadang-kadang member ni memang membantu dalam hal memberi pandangan. tapi kadang-kadang pandangan tu yang menjadi punca kesilapan langkah. macam kalau kau dah kahwin, kau cerita ke semua sweet sweet gaduh perang masalah kecik besar kat orang luar? aku tak kata la aku nih macam dah berkahwin nyer. nak kena penampo diri sendiri ler gitu. lepas tu nanti kalau korang putus, member kau pun dia kena unfriend dekat fb. dia akan bermasam muka dengan kau dan member-member kau sehingga la sampai satu masa kau orang dedua dah berpijak di bumi nyata dan lebih matang. haha.

tapi kesilapan yang lalu aku jadikan pengajaran. kesilapan ni contohnyer emo tak pasal-pasal ke kan. dan aku bersyukur sebab semuanya aku hadapi sendiri (of course dengan hidayah dari Allah) dan aku sedar aku silap dan aku cuba untuk menjadi lebih baik. kalau aku cerita kat member, mungkin banyak fatwa yang akan dikeluarkan supaya aku ikut. macam orang melawat orang sakit. 10 000 petua keluar nokks. aku akan bercerita sebanyak mana yang penting. you know, put the limit.

ok alh. dah tamat sesei meluahkan perasaan. semoga urusan kau orang akan berjalan dengan lancar.

i just want a simple life.

me, my family,
future family perhaps,
living in a house,
on a piece of land,
our land,
we grow our own veggies,
chicken and baby chicks of ours,
we've got neighbours,
we know our neighbours,
we live together in harmony.

we've got extra land,
we grow fruits,
we sell them,
we got money,
we're happy.

kids,
i watch them grow,
i teach them honesty and love,
towards Allah, people around you and nature,

that's my dream.

ya Allah, only You can grant me these wishes. forgive me and grant me these wishes ya Rabb.

Field Trip (sort of) Backpacking style. gagagaga

Assalamualaikum :)

dah lama nak post pasal cuti-cuti merangkap lawatan sambil belajar ke melbourne. gahahaha. english or malay? melayu je la eh? baru la fefeeling anak rantau sikit. hiksss :p

(post ini adalah untuk perkongsian maklumat tentang kos serta tempat lawatan epada yg noob macam aku. mohon tiada anggapan post poyo atau meninggi diri, sebab saya pendek. peace^^v)

Background. ehem.

pada bulan april 2013 yang lepas, saya dan kawan-kawan sekelas telah pergi ke tempat yang dinyatakan di atas untuk (berjalan-jalan sambil membuat) lawatan akademik. oleh kerana duit AUD agak mahal (AUD 1 = +/- RM3.10 pada waktu berkenaan), maka duit sponsor yang diberi um (terima kasih um) adalah sangat terhad. cukup-cukup untuk tiket flight + hostel + transportation lain-lain sahaja (ni pun setelah ditambah tolak darab bahagi recycle duit oleh committee). makan dan shopping adalah duit sendiri. terima kasih committee yang berpening menguruskan kewangan.

kenapa melbourne? sebab nak jalan ostolia!!!! hahaha.. banyak la tempat dicadangkan. yang dekat, yang jauh. tapi ongkosnya sangat penting. dan tujuan lawatan. untuk pengetahuan anda, australia adalah salah satu negara yang sangat memelihara alam semulajadinya. sangat-sangat penting sehinggakan anda pun akan pening bila nak melepasi kastam Australia (buat kali pertama dalam hidup). topik yang kami kaji bersama adalah green building and sustainability. ini adalah topik panas dalam sektor pembangunan. malaysia baru mula nak ambil berat tentang alam semulajadi, tak apa. pelan-pelan kayuh. ok. itu serba sedikit tentang background lawatan kami.

Tiket Kapal Terbang

MAS - RM 2800/person
Air Asia - RM 1800/person
Emirates - RM2000(lebih kurang)/person
[as of the time we bought the ticket]

untuk ke sana, mula-mula fikir nak naik Air Asia atau Malaysia Airlines. perjalan dari KL ke Tullmarine airport adalah +/- 8 jam. masa tu MAS ada online promo economy class sorang = RM 2200 (lebih kurang. dah masuk tax etc.). tapi lepas mintak group quotation, dia caj sorang = RM 2800. erkkk.

then Air Asia pulak, as usual, online ada promo (sebab masa tgk tiket ni dalam 5 bulan sebelum tarikh berlepas). aku tak ingat harga tiket untuk sorang berapa tapi dalam RM 1000 ke lebih camtuh la. lepas tu mintak group quotation, dia caj sorang RM 1800. gulppp. macam MAS. at least MAS punya ada makan + entertainment + extra stuff you'll need in an airplane. then decide nak amik Air Asia je (sebab duit sponsor cukup untuk tu je hahaha).

tup tup, lepas survey lagi, kami pun akhirnya dapat deal yang terbaik which is dengan Emirates Airlines. sorang dalam RM2000 (tak sure berapa exact price. including visa. ni travel agent uruskan. terima kasih honey travel). by the way, Emirates pun ada buat online promo selalu. go and check the web :)

service Emirates boleh tahan jugak. setiap masa dapat makan. hahaha. entertainment pun okay. kerusi pun okay. cabin crew pun okay. lebih berbaloi-baloi daripada naik Air Asia padahal beza dalam RM300 ke macam tu. hihihi. aku lupa kapal terbang boeing berapa. tapi seat dia 3-5-3 (ke 3-4-3 ek?lupa dah). selesa untuk 8 jam.

Visa

oh ya. kalau nak ke aussie kena ada visa. boleh buat through travel agent atau buat sendiri kat Australian High Comission atau online. untuk penduduk Malaysia, boleh apply ETA (Electronic Travel Authority) kos AUD20 (online). ETA bertahan selama setahun. so nak pegi mana-mana part of aussie dalam setahun tu pakai je visa ni :) . maaf saya tak tau nak buat cemane online sebab travel agent yang uruskan hihihi. boleh tgk website dia sendiri. untuk penduduk bukan dari Malaysia, anda perlu consult dengan Australian High Comission untuk visa yang sesuai.

Pre-Melben

sebelum bergerak, kami ber-briefing sesama sendiri. kahkahkah. memandangkan ini adalah perjalan under universiti dan beramai-ramai (37 orang), maka undang-undang pun dibuat. tapi lecturer kami mahu kami belajar berdikari dan bertanggungjawab atas diri sendiri, maka kami pun berbuat demikian. ihik ihik ihik. kemudian ramai-ramai risau pasal makanan (mahal ke tak yer) dan akhirnya kami telah mencapai kata sepakat untuk membawa 2 kotak maggi untuk stok sendiri. kelakar pulak bila ingat balik pasal makanan punya hal ni. hahaha.

kastam Australia sangat ketat. they really really reaaalllllyyyyyyyy takes care of their environment hence the strict rules of things you can bring into Aussie. anda boleh check website mereka untuk check barang apa yang boleh bawak masuk dan dilarang sama sekali. yang penting, kalau rasa-rasa bawak barang terlarang tu declare lah. kalau declare, then dia check then dia tengok barang tu tak boleh bawak masuk, dia ambik dan byebye la barang tu. kalau check, then barang ok, korang berguling-gulinglah bersama barang tersebut. ekeke. tapi kalau tak declare, then dia jumpa, then kamu mungkin akan disaman. aku lupa berapa AUD. makanan la yang penting. untuk selamat, bawa makanan yang dikilangkan atau yang seal elok-elok. pastikan ada ingredient sebab nanti dia check ingredient. leceh kan? ya itulah mereka. jangan risau. makanan halal mudah didapati. besides, their food quality is much better than ours. this may be cause of these petty stuff you have to go through at custom.

Tempat Tinggal

kami tinggal di Melbourne International Backpackers. such precious experience i may never want to get through again after this. gahahaha. sebenarnya nak cari tempat tinggal ni pun satu kelecehan. kerana bajet yang rendah, kami mencari tempat termurah di kawasan bandar. style apartment dia pulak bukan boleh main sumbat-sumbat je. akhirnya duduk je kat MIB ni. bilik jenis dorm style. aku tak berapa ingat ongkosnya berapa. dalam AUD 30 satu malam. bergantung pada bilik. ni adalah kali pertama aku duduk kat backpackers. actually lepas jumpa student malaysia yang duduk sana, baru la aku tau tempat kitorang duduk tu black area. siap member duk cerita ada kes bunuh kat area situ minggu sebelum kitorang sampai. gulppp. tak tau la berita benar atau tidak. nampak seperti benar. hahaha. lagi pulak tu MIB ni atas pub. so setiap malam nampak orang mabuk ditambah kebisingan muzik mereka. mujurlah kami beramai-ramai stay situ. kalau sorang dua, aku tak berani nokss. hahaha. i know we got this kind of place in malaysia tapi tak semeluas dan terbuka seperti mereka :3

kami stay 1 bilik 4 orang. setiap sorang ada locker masing-masing tapi kecik je. dalam bilik ada 2 plug. takde heater. yerp takdeeee. kalau musim sejuk macam mane? hahaha. shower je la tempat nak memanaskan diri (shower ada heater). jamban sharing. 1 laki, 1 perempuan. dalam 1 jamban tu banyak la sinki, shower dan tempat berak kencing nyer. nak pergi jamban perlu bertudung (aku lilit kepala dgn kain batik je :3). tingkat 1 adalah reception dan kitchen serta tempat makan. ya korang boleh masak sendiri. breakfast disediakan (cereal, penkek, bread). ada bilik fridge. tapi untuk kitorang yang tinggal berapa hari sangat je ni, takde nye masak-masak. hahaha. paling masak pun penkek je. friday night korang akan nampak bouncer beso kat bawah. perihal friday night life ni nanti kita cerita okay. anyway, the place isn't half bad. but my parents wouldn't have stayed here. hahaha

untuk tempat tinggal yang lebih baik, anda boleh cek hotel (lecturer aku duk ibis hotel haritu. tak tau rupa macam mana sebab tak pergi pun. maybe ok kot. takde apa komplen pun dari mereka), apartment (kalau beramai-ramai) dan lain-lain. malaysia hall pun ada tapi ada syarat-syarat nak stay situ. sangat murah (AUD12). kami tak dapat duk situ sebab ramai sangat. student sana turut rekemen homestay (untuk bajet macam kami).

Makan

makanan halal senang dapat. ada satu kawasan nama Sydney Road adalah kawasan Timur Tengah di Melben. banyak kedai runcit kat situ dan agak murah berbanding kawasan CBD. tapi kena hati-hati jugak sebab kadang-kadang kedai tu cakap je halal tapi sebenarnya syubhah. anyway, 1 tempat makan yang best adalah Lord of The Fries. fuhhhh.. aku begitu merindukan beliau :3 .lagi satu, utk makanan berlauk, kawan aku telah pergi ke Blok M. aku tak tau kat mana. tapi kata mereka, sepinggan dalam AUD6-7 camtuh la. iskk.. aku tak terjejak ke blok M haritu. plus, ada la student sana yang tlg masakkan utk kitorang. jadi itu je la sumber makanan aku kat sana. kalau nak makan kat kedai yang dikatakan halal, kena make sure betul-betul samada kedai tu hanya guna daging halal atau kedai tu memang halal. sebab ada member recommend pegi satu kedai burger ni. tengok-tengok dia jual burger piggy sekali. huahuahua. so rupanya dia pakai daging je halal. tapi boleh je nak request dia masak asing dengan tempat dia masak benda-benda lain. tapi gua tak berani hahaha. anda boleh request untuk tengok sijil halal, they don't mind :). Lord of The Fries tu memang dia tunjuk sijil halal depan mata. Halal Australia is better than Malaysia's (quote dari wardina. cewah!)

jangan lupa minum kopi sana. kat 7-eleven ada jual fresh ground coffee 1 cawan = AUD 1 (small). 7-eleven ada merata-rata kat sana. tapi barang dia agak mahal sikit daripada kedai lain. selain 7-eleven, anda boleh pergi ke convenience store yang turut menjual barang seperti 7-eleven. ada jugak supermarket kecil-kecilan. tapi aku tak jumpa woolworths kat tgh bandar Melben. kat surburbs mungkin ada. ada 1 mini market ni tapi aku lupa apa nama beliau.

Tempat-Tempat Untuk Dilihat/Dihayati (tempat-tempat tak berbayar ehehehe)

tempat-tempat untuk dilawati dalam bandar pada aku sebenarnya tak banyak. sebab dia bandar biasa macam kl cuma bezanya bersih dan terdapat banyak design heritage (juga terdapat banyak mat salleh :P). mungkin aku berperasaan begini sebab aku rasa semua bandar sama sahaja, penuh dengan pembangunan bangunan. hehe. maafkan aku sebab aku kurang ingat nama-nama jalan dalam bandar. kalau setakat nak pusing-pusing bandar, sehari suntuk dah cukup. 2 days tops (ni kalau nak rileks-rileks berjalan). antara landmark dalam CBD adalah

Flinders Station
Federation Square.
National State Library
Gardens (ada banyak garden dalam bandar. aku pergi Flagstaff Garden. petang-petang cuci mata tengok orang jogging dan bersukan hahaha)
Victoria Market
Brighton Beach
Yarra River
DFO
Harbour Town
University of Melbourne

victoria market merupakan tempat wajib pergi bagi penduduk local mahupun pengunjung asing. hehehe. tapi vic market ni macam pasar basah biasa je. cuma bezanya, design pasar lebih tersusun dan barang-barang dijual banyak untuk tourist. tempat jual barang basah pun lebih bersih daripada kat Malaysia. takde la korang rasa nak tergelincir je hahaha. bahagian lain pulak adalah barang-barang macam souvenir baju-baju dan sebagainya. sini tempat sesuai beli souvenir. kat harbour town pun ok jugak sebenarnya.

jangan lupa pergi melawat brighton beach untuk ambik gambar kat jamban warna warni tepi pantai. kalau petang-petang boleh tgk penguin parade. tempat ni aku tak sempat pergi :3 . untuk shopping, anda boleh melawat docklands factory outlet ataupun harbour town. di sini ada banyak kedai untuk anda habiskan duit. nak kata murah tu, depends pada barang jugak. ada yang sama je harga dgn malaysia, ada yang lagi murah. pilih la elok-elok ok ;D

Flinders Station dan Federation Square tu sebelah-sebelah je. Flinders station merupakan stesen keretapi lama. kalau nak naik train dari situ boleh jugak :). waktu aku pergi haritu malam hari. melepet kat federation square sampai tengah malam lepas tu ambik-ambik gambar. terdapat wifi free dia federation square. kalau nak ambik gambar bangunan lain, datanglah siang hari yer.

National State Library tu kalau lalu siang hari, korang akan nampak orang bertebaran di atas rumput. hehehe. dorang baca buku, bersembang ke buat apa-apa la. kalau ada ruang, join la sekaki. aku cuba nak masuk library tu. tapi sampai lobby je. tak berani nak tanya "can i go in or kenot?" :3 di waktu tengah malam terdapat homeless dan pelepak malam merayau di situ.

banyak taman-taman yang cantik dalam Melben. aku pergi flagstaff sebab paling dekat dengan hostel. taman selalu menjadi tempat dating, ambik-ambik gambar, tengok anjing bersiar-siar, bersukan. oh ye. anjing comel belaka di sana, malah tak menakutkan macam kat sini :3

Sungai Melben yang femes adalah Yarra River. dari tempat kami kena naik 2 tram sebab jauh sikit. tempat dia dekat dengan DFO (kalau tak silap). tempat ini dicadangkan oleh seorang member untuk pergi pada Jumaat malam sebab ada persembahan Hellfire. sebenarnya takde benda pun. cuma ada api keluar dari tiang. gahahaha. setiap satu jam dia ulang so jangan risau kalau masa korang sampai tu dia baru je habis. Yarra river jugak sesuai untuk berjalan ambik angin dan dating. ada shopping mall dekat situ (crown eh nama dia?). masuk lah jenguk-jenguk. takde apa pun. :P

nak jalan-jalan kat Universiti Melbourne tu boleh je. cuma kena buat-buat macam tahu tempat tu je la. hehehe. berbeza dengan universiti Malaysia, universiti di sana samada berada di antara bangunan tengah bandar (RMIT) atau dikumpul 1 tempat tapi tak berpagar pun (UniMelb). banyak bangunan lama. feeling like harry potter gitu. hahaha. pusing-pusing la dalam tu untuk merasai suasa universiti omputeh :P

kalau nak merasai dunia sebenar, anda boleh pergi ke dua tempat yang famous iaitu Philips Island dan Great Ocean Road. setiap 1 tempat ni memerlukan sekurang-kurangnya 1 hari suntuk untuk pergi, berjalan dan pulang ke bandar. actually kalau ikut perasaan, teringin aku stay kat Great Ocean Road 2 hari 1 malam. tapi disebabkan jadual yang penuh dengan aktiviti melawat bangunan, maka aku dan yang lain-lain hanya sempat ke Philips Island. gerak pagi balik petang. itupun rasa tak puas lagi. the view is amazing! Subhanallah. aku cuma sempat pergi wildlife park dan Noobies. ya noob gila. hahaha. adalah satu kerugian kalau sampai aussie tapi tak pergi wildlife park dia mahupun menikmati serta mensyukuri nikmat alam sekitar yang terdapat di situ. utk ke sana, anda bole book tour online (aku tgk kat blog lain) atau mintak tour guide arrange. tapi kami naik 3 van, dipandu oleh student sana. ongkosnye agak mahal sikit. AUD60 ke 80 ntah. tak ingat. kalau anda ada kawan kat sana, lagi bagus (kalau dia boleh arrangekan ehekkk :P).

banyak lagi tempat yang tak sempat aku pergi disebabkan lawatan bangunan. oh ye. lawatan bangunan kami termasuklah The Pixel Building, Melbourne University (tour faculty of architecture ke amende ntah. perasan jadik student situ seminit. kakakaka), RMIT building 8, Royal Exhibition Building, Melbourne Museum, Council House 2, Town Hall dan Positive Energy Places (ni aku tak pergi. masa ni kena pecah 2). sangat bermanfaat malah memeningkan. haha. english slang aussie ni agak berbelit jugak. macam UK punya slang. take time jugak nak faham. by the time dah faham, dia dah cakap benda lain @.@ . so kena pandai-pandai catch up. huhuhu. anyway, good experience. walaupun secara fizikalnya nampak macam kitorang ni tak belajar apa-apa sangat, tapi secara mentalnya kami belajar tentang budaya, cara pemikiran dan pengajaran kehidupan daripada tempat yang telah dilawati. these things are absorbed and practiced. bukan senang-senang dapat experience merantau kecil begini :) . nak aku cerita pasal setiap satu bangunan ke? bosan kagn engkorang gahahaha.

Cara Bergerak dalam Melben

public transport di Melben adalah sangat-sangat efisyen. selama aku menduduki kawasan berkenaan, aku hanya pakai public transport dan berjalan kaki. bandar di Melben, macam Perth jugak, pakai grid system. so tak la tersesat-sesat sangat. paling mudah nak bergerak dalam bandar adalah menggunakan tram. tapi kena ada myki card dulu. boleh beli kat 7-eleven kalau tak silap. lepas tu top up. myki ni macam rapid pass jugak. boleh pakai untuk sistem transport rapid je. atau utk yg di Melben, korang boleh pakai untuk semua jenis public transport. kad myki berharga AUD 6, lepas tu kena top up ikut cita rasa. ada yang 2 jam, 1 hari, seminggu dan seterusnya. disebabkan kitorang stay dalam seminggu je, maka top up seminggu je la. aku lupa berapa total semua tapi lebih berbaloi top up seminggu terus. ada jugak pakej untuk tourist tapi mahal. AUD14 kalau tak silap. and good for 1-2 days only (tak ingat). lagi berbaloi beli biasa then top up :)

tapi kalau rasa macam malas nak pakai myki, boleh je. janji tempat tinggal korang dekat dengan tempat-tempat korang nak tuju atau korang ada transportation sendiri. by the way, city circle tram adalah percuma. city circle tram ni tram antik yang mengelilingi bandar Melben. korang spot je city circle tram ni kat mana-mana tram stop yang dia lalu, pastu naik je la. pastikan samada tram tu clockwise atau anticlockwise. tapi sebenarnya masa aku naik tram biasa tu, sekali dua je aku touch card. hahaha. orang-orang local yang naik pun tak touch card. why should i kan? ekekeke.. tapi kena hati-hati sikit pasal touch card tu. entah cemane baki kitorang semua jadik kosong. dia macam kalau kau naik, kau touch. pastu sebelum turun kena touch jugak. kalau tak, next time kau naik, baki kau hilang camtu je. haa.

Dari airport, boleh naik skybus untuk sampai ke tempat tinggal korang. tapi kena tengok jugak la tempat mana dia cover. kena bayar. lupa harga.

Budaya Penduduk

kebanyakan penduduk di tempat aku pergi adalah bukan penduduk asal Aussie atau istilah Malaysianya non-bumi. anyway, penduduk Aussie memang majoriti bukan penduduk asalnya pun. penduduk asal Aussie adalah aborigins atau orang asli. anda boleh melawat muzium orang asli jika berminat. menerima tips bukanlah budaya mereka (good thing gehehehe). layanan orang-orang yang entertain kami di tempat lawatan bangunan adalah sangat superb. layanan orang-orang lain biasa je. hehe. tak la super friendly but nice lah. tapi sesuatu yang disedari kawan aku, siang-siang bila naik tram, mereka senyap. malam hari, mereka friendly luar biasa! hahaha. tak la luar biasa. tapi more friendly at night. kenapa? tentulah sebab alkohol. budaya diorang, siang kerja dengan penuh etika, malam bersosial.

masa pergi perth dulu, mak bapak aku punya marah la sebab aku ngan akak keluar malam (sekali je. tu pun kejap sangat. just to go to the store across the street). tapi bila aku kat sini bersama rakan-rakan, haruslah aku melalui pengalaman keluar malam di tempat orang. kakakaka. tapi akhirnya aku faham kerisauan mak bapak aku. aku mungkin diattack oleh homeless, orang mabuk atau kena pau dengan sesiapa sahaja. masa malam kedua kat situ dah nampak scene tak menarik dalam tram. cuak ke bebeh nye Allah je yang tahu masa tu. huhuhu. ye ler. first time tengok. tapi lepas-lepas tu dah tak cuak kebebeh macam tuh dah. huhuhu

waktu aktif bandar sana tak sama macam Malaysia. kedai kat Malaysia bukak pukul 9-10 pagi sampai 10 malam (biasanya. ada je yang tak biasa kan kan) tapi di Melben, kedai bukak dari pukul 9 pagi sampai 6 petang. hari Jumaat extend sikit. bukan sebab jumaat barokah, tetapi kerana friday night life. jumaat malam adalah waktu untuk mereka clubbing dan bermabuk-mabukan. opening hours untuk hujung minggu aku tak berapa pasti sebab hujung minggu aku tak berada di bandar. jadi bandar Melben mati lepas pukul 6 di hari biasa. anda perlu bayangkan scene pukul 12 malam Malaysia adalah pukul 11 malam di sana. girls, don't stay out late alone. berhati-hati pada hari jumaat malam.

tapi pada pandangan peribadi aku, orang Perth lebih lembut dan friendly berbanding orang Melben. pandangan peribadi la. mungkin sebab masa kat Perth dulu aku pergi tempat tourist je so dapat layanan baik-baik je la. hahaha. rakyat Malaysia bersepah sebenarnya kat sana. samada nak ngaku mat salleh ke mat malaysia itu terpulang pada pilihan masing-masing.

Perbezaan Masa

perbezaan masa KL-Melben ni unik sikit. boleh jadi 2 jam, boleh jadi 3 jam. dari ahad pertama bulan april hingga ahad pertama bulan oktober, perbezaan masa adalah 2 jam. manakala dari ahad pertama oktober hingga ahad pertama april, perbezaan masa adalah 3 jam. ini kerana Melben experience 25 jam sehari pada musim panas. extra 1 jam tersebut turut dipanggil daylight saving.

hari (atau malam sebenarnya) kami sampai tu sebenarnya waktu perbezaan  KL-Melben adalah 3 jam. tapi hari tu jugak merupakan hari terakhir daylight saving di mana mereka dapat extra 1 jam berbanding hari biasa. jadi pada pukul 3 pagi (waktu ni la daylight saving kot), mereka perlu putar jam kembali kepada pukul 2 pagi. kenapa pukul 3 pagi? aku pun tak pasti. mungkin pukul 3 pagi tu bumi berhenti berputar sekejap kat bahagian Melben (teori sendiri. jgn pakai. hahaha).

walaupun perbezaan waktu dah jadi 2 jam, perbezaan matahari sebenarnya 3 jam. ok. ni mesti tak faham kan? meh aku cerita ikut waktu solat. kalau kat KL masuk waktu maghrib pukul 7.15 p.m. (KL time), kat Melben pulak masuk waktu maghrin pukul 6.15 p.m. (Melben time). ok. bayangkan Melben pukul 6.15 p.m. tu mmg dah gelap sbb masuk maghrib, lepas tu pada masa yg sama, waktu KL baru pukul 4.15 p.m. which is tak masuk asar lagi. jd perbezaan matahari adalah 3 jam, manakala perbezaan jam adalah 2 jam. boleh bayang tak? aku harap faham la sebab aku tak reti explain cara lain lagi. hahaha. aku pening kejap masa hari-hari awal sebab bila contact family pepagi lepas subuh, dorang tak reply. baru teringat waktu tu memang aku pun tengah ngorok kat rumah. hahaha.

Muslim Travel Essential

walaupun ramai Muslim tinggal di Melben (masih minoriti la tapi), tak banyak musolla yang available. ada la jugak sebenarnya tapi tak sebanyak macam Malaysia (duh!) :B . so bawak la kompas kemana-mana sahaja anda pergi. anda jugak mungkin merasai pengalaman menunaikan solat di tempat-tempat yang anda takkan tunaikan solat di Malaysia. baru la adventure sikit yedakkk? hehehe. untuk muslimah, adalah lebih mudah kalau anda memakai pakaian yang mesra solat supaya tak perlu bertelekung di tempat public.

dan sudah tentu, toilet tidak berpaip. jadilah lebih kreatif untuk diri sendiri :P

paling paip dalam jamban yang aku jumpa pun kat surau UniMelb. itu pun paip yang berspring (so nanti bila kita lepas paip tu dia akan automatik tutup terus) ditadah menggunakan penyiram pokok untuk cebok. kreatif habis. hahaha. mungkin ada certain requirement di Melben yang menghalang mereka implement paip macam kat Malaysia. aku tak tau.

oh ye. kalau naik Emirates ni bagus sikit. kat skrin kapal terbang tu dah siap-siap tunjuk arah kiblat. so mudah la untuk kita solat dalam kapal terbang.

Cuaca

sebagai rakyat Malaysia, sudah tentulah aku pergi sebab nak mengada-ngada rasa sejuk-sejuk. ekekeke. waktu aku pergi adalah pertukaran dari summer fall ke winter. cuaca dia pelik sikit. hari pertama macam kat Malaysia. petang tu hujan. esoknya sejuk. range suhu waktu aku kat sana adalah dalam 10-23 Celcius (anggaran sahaja). sejuknya sampai aku pakai sarung tangan (sebenarnya tak pakai pun takpe tapi sebab aku ni ngade-ngade nak pakai hahaha). lepas tu boleh jadi cuaca dia panas pastu nanti sejuk. biasanya kalau hujan, lepas tu sejuk.

cuaca Melben samada sejuk atau panas, akan mengeringkan. jadi amatlah berguna kalau anda pakai lip balm dan moisturizer. kalau pakai moisturizer kat Malaysia selalu rasa melekit kaaaan. ni kat sana rasa selesa insya Allah.

Cost Summary (not exact)

tiket - RM 2000
accomodation (1 malam dalam +/- AUD 29) - RM 689 (8 malam)
skybus + tram - RM260

total untuk 9 hari 8 malam - RM 3000+/- (ni anggaran sahaja)

makan - +/- AUD 11-15/hari. breakfast kat hostel, lunch dan dinner daripada student sana (which aku rasa lebih baik makan lord of the fries je hari-hari muhahaha)

macam mana dengan caj travel agent? hurm. itu aku pun tak pasti. kalau tak silap, dia tak caj banyak kat kitorang. maybe banyak caj kat lecturer. tapi servis dia ok. ada sorang dari travel agent ikut kitorang sebab dalam syarat dia, klau lebih berapa orang entah kena ada agent ikut.



aku harap post ni bermanfaat untuk sesiapa yang tersinggah sini tiba-tiba sebab tengah cari info pasal nak jalan-jalan kat Melben. peace^^v

oh.
one of my "confessions" was approved.

approved? yea right. i was playing around a little. i don't know who's the owner. i don't wanna tell my guess. cause i'm racist liddat. gahahaha

Saturday, June 22, 2013

you can, i can, we can.

i used to blame everyone around me for every bad things happened. by everyone i meant everyone i could see wrong at that time. during school days, i complained to mak about everything i hated about the place. of the filing system, every space yada yada yada. not to forget, i blamed the teachers when i didn't understand a thing they teach. i'd say that they didn't teach properly. but then i learned that mak is the last person i'm gonna complain or tell everything. she'd put the blame back at me and i, for one, do hate that.

then the time comes when i started my ignoring phase. probably some sort of rebellion stuff. the i-just-don't-care-you-do-anything-you-wanna-do-cause-you-suck. this was probably the stepping stone of what i had become today. plus, the movies and series i've watched :3

i had to gather a lot of gut to post this up cause you know, these things taught me to lower down my ego.

i mean, i can blame teachers for not teaching properly, school for being the place i hate, society for setting such high expectancy level of clever kids, friends and whatnots.
then i realised, i didn't do much to turn things around, surely if the teacher gave his/her best in teaching and they use great teaching method, i'd understand what he/she was trying to teach me. but what about my own effort in trying to understand the thing that he/she taught?

well it hit me that i was actually being ego. it was pretty late though. i've already entered college by the time i realised it. but well, what does late even mean? ;)

oh yeah. ignoring do play a big part. enough amount of ignorance is good. i mean, i've ignored the fact that being an intelligent student or someone who can score scholarship is not the main point. thing is, i should be learning. by learning i mean that i should learn by heart, know the stuff, understand it and feel it. yerp, feel. the feeling comes much much later. scoring the scholarship is the plus point. i didn't scored any and i'm still alive up until today. Alhamdulillah. it's not about what the teacher's, society's, friend's or any other people who coexist in your life expected. it is what i expected from myself.

then religion will set the limit. like you can ignore people around you but not totally. being aware that you're in the wrong path is better than believing that you're doing it right.

and positive, that's my driver. if i'd been sucking up to negativity attributes, surely i'd hate myself right now.

Friday, June 21, 2013

it's time to bid goodbye to college. truthfully, i'm sad. i don't know if i'd ever get to stay there for the next semester. for goodness sake, i;ve stayed at the 3rd floor for 3 consecutive years and got used to it. the downside is perhaps the heat due to bad room design. otherwise it's great. or livable. it's far from luxury but i still love staying there.

this post is dedicated to astar and also astarians. may Allah grant my wish to stay there again. it's just 1 semester then i'm gone for good :3

i'll miss my roomates!
and ex-roomates!
and those of you who have make my stay worthwhile :)

Tuesday, June 18, 2013

that's it.
i'm going to make this coming holiday worthwhile. it's time to star ponder on post-graduation plan.

i think i'm gonna be at crossroads. i've never thought about it before. i mean, serious thought.
playfully planned, check.
considering, check.
really gonna do it, uncheck.

isn't this something you face after high school?
or is it never ending? -_-

this must've been the gilmores. you know, with rory having her life determined while her mom screwed up her life but eventually make it work.

i just... don't think i'm gonna continue with the thing i'm doing right now.

Friday, June 14, 2013

i have english-like paper this evening. four argumentative essays need to be written in two hours. i need to brainstorm now since i've wasted last night with very very good night sleep. hehe. i'm writing this post to practice my writing skills. it's getting bad. i've been reading journals and more journals throughout the semester. because of turnitin, the researchers started to write very wordy, lengthy journals. notwithstanding previous sentence, the pompous language is the top most reason i loathe reading journals (this is law-like sentence. it gets much worse than this ._.)

you see that? i've had to read these sentence structure. i prefer doraemon.

let's start an argument. about something. marriage? ok marriage it is then.

let's see.. hitting 20, people around me starts asking about marriage stuff. the most popular one would be "hey, when are you getting married?" or when joking around with friends, it's sounds like "when do you think you want to get married?". i'm okay with these kind questions. still not yet at the age of you-should-now-get-married. although if i live during my mom's era, i'd already enter that phase. grandma's era? well people might've already called me an old maid.

it's sad isn't it? not the fact that you're 30 and still not married, but the fact that people around you kept asking stuff that hurt you. i've never plan my age of marriage. or every other thing. i don't plan my life. that's how it has always been.

alamak i have to brainstorm la.

so..urmm..
the vaccine issue has become viral. i thought it was just another suam-suam issue.

i don't really know which side to choose from. but here's my stand,
what Rasulullah did, it becomes sunnah. hence, whatever he didn't do, why would we need to do it? i've been asking this question for quite some time. no, not in the internet or anywhere else. the question pops out when i started to realise that vaccination has become sort of compulsory. well a lot of other questions pops out like this but let's just focus on the vaccination issue. anyway, i didn't remember anyone asking me whether i'd want to vaccinate myself or not. i bluntly walk to the nurse, get the shot, and walks away. all i know is, when the vaccine reacts, we may sometimes fall sick.

also, i've learn in biology that there are 4 types of antibody stuff. sorry i can't remember it well. it's been 5 years since the last time i've learned it :3. anyway, through education, i've learn that vaccine is as important as mum's milk. mum's milk contains antibody that you can't get from no other. especially the earliest milk babies got from their mother. it's yellow-like stuff which contains the most antibody for the baby. that is also why babies who didn't get their milk from their mothers are more vulnerable to diseases. i'm sorry for mommies who really really can't breastfeed their babies. but through history, i've also learn that Rasulullah was breastfeed by 2 different mothers. i'm not sure whether it's because there was no powder milk like now or it really should be that way. some food for thought eh?

oh i'm sorry. menyimpang siur pulak :3 . so yeah, Rasulullah wasn't vaccinated and he grew up fine. healthy and full of spirit. i'm sure the extra antibody develops through his lifestyle. however this is not an anti-vaccine post. this is just my personal thought and ramblings. it is your own choice to vaccinate your kid or not. i got the shot too. tetanus, chicken pox and whatever stuff. padahal by the time i got the chicken pox shot, aku dah kena chicken pox pun. haha.

wassalam.

i need motivation.
a kick ass one.
this fyp is killing my soul.
i really want to finish with it and continue on with my life.
i mean, i am still living now. Alhamdulillah.
i just want to get it over with.
i'm really worried.
really very very.

Wednesday, June 5, 2013

urm
so
i've finally slept through the whole night
and manage to wake up early
after an eventful semester
tanpa memikirkan bahagian tesis mana yg aku tak siapkan lagi
atau "harini nak berkejar ke mana?"

tapi selagi tak settle final binding ni
tak tenang betul perasaan di jiwaku
and abah wished i'd straight away continue master
oh did i tell you i still don't have any plans yet?
yea yea yea i know
go work or continue study
but hey what about being a lady, sit at home and enjoy being pampered?
hehe

but i do feel a little lonely without my family around
they'll be back on friday but still,
hehe

i have a confession to make
i miss my family
there,
typed it.

also,
i hope i'll manage to reach abang's house today.
fuhhh!

Monday, June 3, 2013

Alhamdulillah.
all three events done.
i'm pretty sad.
she's not my bff.
or partner in crime or whatever.
but partner says that we're really very close.
well maybe that's why.

Saturday, May 25, 2013

i'm afraid i cannot do it.

:'(

Friday, May 24, 2013

too cheesy to tweet

of every second passed by without you around,
i miss you.

Wednesday, May 22, 2013

i've always joke around with my friends about wanting to get married early. as early as today i mean.
it's all laugh and fun.
also, i like to tease mak about me not wanting to get married.
end up with her lecture of how important getting married is.
still, it's all laugh and fun.

but someday, when Allah says "kun fa ya kun" and getting married is a real thing,
it's all nervous and scared for me.
shocked and sad for mak.

i know.

.rindu.

aku rasa tak lama lagi bila aku dengar maharku untukmu ni ...


... aku nangis.
i removed last post.
thought that i said "all answers are confidential"
hihi

bersyukurlah sebab masih dapat ucap selamat hari jadi, selamat hari emak dan selamat hari guru kat mak.

Monday, May 13, 2013

i've been getting stomach ache.
mak simply said it's gastric.
probably because of irregular eating time, spicy food and stress.

irregular eating time? hmm.. not really. just sometimes.
spicy food? i couldn't agree more. ehehehe
stress? ni aku tak tau tak tau tak tau hahahaha bai

anyway, i have weak stomach.

Sunday, May 12, 2013

untuk mak yang kuat mengsekolahkan aku dan abang-abang dan kakak aku,
dan paling tough sebab memberanakkan kami
dan paling cekal sebab sanggup bangun tengah malam nak tengok demam aku macam mana,
dan paling cool sebab selalu bagi hadiah berunsur keperempuanan kat aku masa zaman belum cukup perempuan lagi,

selamat hari emak,
semalam, hari ni, esok dan selamanya.
semoga Allah merahmati dan menyayangi emak.
(:
it took me almost a year to get over with it.
that was before.
i wonder if it happens again, how short would i need?




please don't.
just please.

Saturday, May 11, 2013

semester ni
jiwa aku mati
dimamah waktu
dan rasa

kesayangan-kesayangan di hadapan
beratus-ratus helai kertas di belakang
kejar-mengejari

kejap aku laju kedepan
kejap aku perlahan
yg depan aku mahu
yang belakang aku perlu

maaf lah
aku tak tahu lagi

semoga semester ni tamat dengan jayanya
menangis pun menangis la
janji aku nak tamatkan on time


T_______T

aku ...

... sepi

dejavu.
perlu aku ulang lagi

suka kamu aku buat begitu?

Thursday, May 9, 2013

i don't think we need to overestimate stuff.

assignment should be short, simple and sweet enough for readers to understand.

unless your lecturers are the "wordy" type.

Tuesday, May 7, 2013

ape resis resis?
korangz tak tau ker penyebaran Islam dulu berjaya sebab ketiadaan resis dalam Islam?

mari la kembali dari negara bangsa kepada negara errr... agama?

bermula dengan membaca.
"bacalah!"
bukan beautifulnara mahupun ohbulan atau rotikaya,
tapi buku yg lebih "berisi"
cari la gaya penulisan yg memikat hati

sebelum tu, mari la kumpul kerajinan menyiapkan tesis.
dan ip.
dan ekon.
dan karangan terulung tentang kualiti.

semoga dijauhkan dari sifat malas bertimba-timba
serta penyakit melengahkan masa

demi masa, sesungguhnya manusia kerugian, kecuali orang-orang yg beriman dan beramal soleh, dan berpesan-pesan dgn kebenaran, dan berpesan-pesan dgn kesabaran

membuat research itu ibadah
dari fadhu kifayah
beribadah tangga kepada keimanan
amboi sukati aku je

dah la
aku sebenarnya tengah motivate diri sendiri nak buat kerja
sesungguhnya aku adalah orang yg dalam kerugian

mari beribadah (buat research)!

wallahu'alam.
i didn't get my bihun sup today.
which is the highlight of my breakfast every week.
because dm set their clock 5 minutes early.
because makcik dm don't want to accept me being late for a minute today.
and i still find that makcik bitter.
i think that makcik didn't get enough sleep last night.
or every night?

i'm still upset i didn't get my bihun sup today.
it is sad and scary to see how much a lost history can cause.
lost? oh well.

of "primitive" era and "modernisation".

well, we "evolved from apes"
what a theory.

i used to take hadiths and Quran translation as it is.
but Allah wants us to use our mind to think,
and when i do,
i started to look at things differently.

if you are fighting in the name of Islam (of course in the name of Allah the Most Gracious and Most Merciful),
you should know that the fundamentals in Islam solves what we are quarreling about today.
so let's turn back to Islam and embrace it with all our heart,
insya Allah, Allah will show us the way.
the only thing we do is ask.

start small, think big :)

assalamualaikum.

oh hai orang malaysia. macam mana? ok tak? saya harap ok lah.

wah terasa matang sungguh apabila mengikuti siri pilihanraya kali ini.

ehem. ok dah.

ada orang baca tak ni? hello hello.

sebenarnya aku tak tau la patut ke post mengenai pandangan peribadi (cewah cewah peribadi cewahhh) tentang pilihanraya pertama yg aku layak mengundi tapi tak cukup umur ni hahaha bai.

eh alamak keje sekolah banyak la. kita sembang lain tahun ye.

Thursday, May 2, 2013

i think university should be in jungle.
surrounded by so many many trees.
everytime i feel tired looking at books or notes or (most of the time) laptop, i would just look outside and be thankful for Allah's creation.
that's why i'm loving my (so-called) workspace in the college room.
there aren't many trees outside.
but when i need to think of something for a while, i'd just look away.

anywaywayway,
it's thursday, the day after i laze around in the room alone. problem is, when my roomates are around, we'd talk so much and my to-do list will stay untouched.
but when i'm alone, i'd laze around, sleep or just do nothing, and the same thing happened to my works.
ish.

i don't even know what i need.

but right now i know what i need..


sleep.

or just ... type some more?

Sunday, April 28, 2013

aku baru 21 (ye baru tauuuu)
mengikut undang-undang, dah layak mengundi. tapi sebab lambat daftar maka aku jadik pemerhati yg layak.
ehem.
sebenarnya aku tak la memerhati sangat. sebagai seorang yg berdarah muda jiwa membara-bara (cewahhh!), aku tetap mahu ambil port sikit-sikit akan dunia politik terpusing ni.
tapi kite watlek je arrrrr. ape benda merepek siak dorang ni duk berlumba nak tunjuk diri paling mulia. gua lagi bagus arr dari korang. huhh.

ok ok ini kali perenggan serius.
ikutkan rasa, aku tak mahu ambik port dalam dunia politik jadian yang penuh dengan twisted theories. maaf aku bukan penuntut sains politik. dan ini merupakan kali pertama aku meluahkan rasa terseksa jiwa (amboiiii! kononnyeeee).

tapi...
setakat sirah Rasulullah yg pernah aku belajar dulu,
i learn the fact that people will trust you when you do things purely from your heart.
macam mana kabilah-kabilah yg bersemangat as-sabiyyah boleh kata "ha, dia ni memang patut pun jadi pengadil untuk kita letak hajarul aswad ni kat mana".
ya, pada pandangan aku yg kerdil dan masih kurang ilmu di dada ni, kita perlu seseorang yang berperibadi seperti Rasulullah untuk menjadi pemimpin. low profile tapi awesome. amboi nak guna perkataan awesome awesome jeeee :B
jadi aku tak bersetuju dgn sistem pilihanraya berparti ini. sepatutnya tukarrrr! ya tukarrr! bukan tukar kerajaan tapi tukar fundamental pemilihan sebelum menukar kerajaan. baru betul #inikalilah

dan sekiranya kamu benar-benar ingin memimpin atas dasar tanggungjawab, with pure intention, aku percaya kamu akan sedaya boleh melakukannya tanpa perlu dinaungi mana-mana parti.

mmg ramai yg berkelayakan untuk jadi pemimpin negara. yg punya kualiti keperibadian, walau tak sama tapi mungkin seakan-akan Rasulullah. mungkin masih belum dikurniakan keberanian.

cuba kita try test sekali, pilihanraya tanpa menggunakan branding parti mana kamu datang (maksudnya semua orang bertanding atas kebolehan sendiri). ehem.

ya, aku keyboard warrior yg kecut sebab tak tulis keyword untuk digugel search.
dah la. aku nak balik dunia realiti.

Saturday, April 27, 2013

i am glad.
because i don't need to vote.

so...let's just see what will happen after this.


on the side note, i am really really really superbly worried about my fyp. :'(

Wednesday, April 24, 2013

so .. the questions still haunt me. i really have no idea why they asked me such things.
i really am not practicing husnuzhonn. this is bad bad thing. but please don't blame me for being paranoid. what would you think when those who you've always heard badmouthing your friends asked out of the blue questions? it's as if they're talking behind my back. or maybe it's just me thinking too much of such simple question. either way, it's not good.

i used to just take thing as it is. like for instance, if someone asked me private stuff, it's just a question asked and no other intention. nowadays i've started to think too much of everything. everything!

some true colors have appeared i see. backstabbers, ten faced and whatnot. i just want to be out of the picture. and that's just it.

maybe this is the punishment for me for joining people badmouthing each other.

forgive us all ya Allah.. :(
maybe i should just go back in my own world. it's more fun and peaceful.

Tuesday, April 23, 2013

i feel pity for those who find getting drunk is the way to get themselves happy.
escapism.
a short vacation in your own dream.
a cheap one too.
technically speaking, it does make you happy for a short while. but when you gain your senses, you'd come back to the reality. alcohol is being cruel towards you. it is more cruel than the reality you're trying to run away.

during the day, you're the most ethical and good mannered person.
at night, alcohol turned you into the person you don't even know.
though my roomates kept calling me the gossiper, i actually am not really keen on gossiping. i usually share funny or good stories. sometimes i accidentally tell ..errr.. gossip. i still am trying to lower down, or better to stop it.

me and my coursemates, we've been together for almost four years now. we aren't siblings, we don't act like one. but it's like we're big big family.

this has taught me to shut my mouth and don't say anything till i heard both sides. it's not that easy actually. the first thing you heard usually stick to your mind better than the next. i've had a schoolmate, who was really really negative. i hate the fact i used to "need" to hear all her rants. don't get me wrong. i'm fine with people ranting on things. but when you keep on ranting of how bad other people are, and you keep on having negative look on others and how great you are, i kinda have to check why should i spend so much time with you. i'm sorry that you dislike everyone in your life (except for yourself of course) but no one actually do like you.

and that has also taught me that whatever my view on people surroundings, that's how they viewed me too. i try to look at both sides of someone and to drop the negatives as much as i could. i'm not sure how people look at me. i hope it isn't thaaaaaaat baaaaaaad.

gossips are really bad. if you find good things, keep it to yourself. if it is bad, just keep it to yourself too.
by you i mean me.

Monday, April 22, 2013

here is me ranting on nothing at 4 a.m.

i'm hungry.
i can't not picture of the night each time i hear the song.
of white rose and dim lights.

and here is me, hoping to see you soon.
has it been a year?
who knows we can go this far.

May Allah forgive and bless us.

(:

i board the tram, wanting to get some food at the end of the street. standing, as usual.
a very old granny told me to sit. me, trying to show off how healthy i am, i said no.
later, after much refusal, i sat beside her. after it got empty of course.
she talked to me, of how nice the weather was that day, and some other stuff i couldn't catch.

i've no idea why grannys like to talk to me wherever i go. or maybe they do like to talk to everyone.

i miss grandma. my grandma i mean.
he said i've got a strong willpower.

i'd keep that in mind.

Monday, April 15, 2013

so... i'm back! safe and sound Alhamdulillah..

however i caught a few stuff like cold, sore throat, fever, numb toe, bloody knee and somethingicouldntsayoutloud. i've no idea why i caught so much during this trip.. missing family and partner a lot maybe..

however it was a nice trip. something different than a trip with family. of course, any trip with classmates means i;m going to break whatever mak told me before the trip. like "jgn mandi laut!" "jgn keluar malam!"

anyway, Alhamdulillah i learned a lot during the trip. pick some and drop others.

semoga Allah berkati ilmu yg dicedok sepanjang seminggu lalu :)

Thursday, April 4, 2013

when trying to (sort of) give motivation, i usually try my best to use positive words rather than descriptions that might bring someone even much lower. i can say "be faithful" rather than "don't cheat". cause you know, you'd only remember the verb and drop the "don't".

i don't have many chances to explore places. this would probably be the only chance i'd have in a year or two. or forever? let's just hope for the best.

exploring places is good. you expand your horizons, you begin to understand why people acted the way they did and you'd learn that there are more to life than you had ever seen.

the pious muslims and not-really-pious ones used to have quite a big gap. in term of talking, dressing and whatnot. these days, we could see that more and more people are trying to show how not complicated it is to live as a muslim. how you can just pray anywhere and not only in designated prayer rooms or masjid. or that there are a lot of halal food than the haram ones.

with (i hope) a good intention of going, i hope that this time around, i could leave something good in someone's (or two, three, well, the more the merrier ain't it? :p) memory. like the old lady who asked "how do you actually wear it? cause i saw people wear it many ways"

maybe it's just me being too sensitive.

bismillahitawakkaltu'alallah.

Tuesday, April 2, 2013

i know i have too much homework that i've left for too long.
the thesis and ip.
and other subjects which i'm not too sure how much i do know about.

but here's the thing.
"9 days of holidays"

i've lost my motivation to continue thesis.
Alhamdulillah i've somehow regain it a little.
partner says i have such a strong willpower.
i don't know how strong it is.
maybe i can destroy high rise buildings with my willpower.

perhaps i haven't asked much from Allah.
so He let me astray for a while till i knock my head on the wall.
or in actual, i did knocked my head on the wall 3 times last week.
of which i don't feel pain at all.
for the record, my other sense are still working.
like how i was shocked for knocking my head in the wall.

so buckle up and jump.
cuz M i comeeeeeeeeeee!

thee hee hee :B

recently a friend of mine just ended her long distance relationship, after a few years together. it's pretty sad. they're like the perfect puzzle. but who am i to judge. only Allah knows what's best for us. may Allah grant her strength and show her guidance to His path.

i feel her somehow. it's pretty hard. as time flies, i realized a lot of things i refused to learned before. i pick up some lesson and unintentionally drop the good things behind. no one wants a shattered ending. no one ever want it, especially the moment they enter the relationship. how one wish the sweet moments pause. but as cliche as it sounds, things happened. no one wants it but nonetheless, when one mildly give their best, things would happen.

i've learned my lesson, which is only part of the millions lessons i'd be learning.

on unrelated notes, abang got married last week. Alhamdulillah everything went on smoothly. semoga Allah panjangkan jodoh mereka sampai ke syurga.

abang got married... is really weird. haha. well like i said, things happened. only it's in past tense ;)
i missed you so much i would scream your name in a crowded, noisy place.
truthfully.

when you revert back to Islam,

remember, you were once lost like the other souls you see. give them as much love as you can, show them how the light has given you what you and everyone has been searching for.

remember the things you hated others did, because you shouldn't repeat it.

always remember to remind yourself that you're an imperfect human being, you always are.

and Allah loves you. that's why you feel the way you felt.

i thought that tvxq coming in may means all 5 of them are coming.
but they're down to two now.
iSad.. :(
no?yes?no five?
isk iskk..

at some point i thought that they're gonna be like the legend group who'll never break up.
i was so wrong.
and suju is just spectacular with their addition and subtraction from time to time.
i should sing time after time for them.
no?yes?forever?

just about two weeks ago i downloaded proposal daisakusen, which i initially forgot its name but thanks to dramawiki for jotting down every single title of yamapi's drama.
i even forgotten yamapi's name in the first place.
i remembered his face, and slowly the name yamapi reappeared in my mind.
and soon, with the thanks of google this time, i remembered his real name, again.
and all his series i've watched or should've watched.
once upon a time, i thought i'd get to meet yamapi and be cool with it while my heart thumping wild. and i'd give him effortless present but think about it so much the night before.
now i don't even remember his name.

for the record, i can't name all suju's member like used to.
and i don't have enough patient anymore to wait for a volume of manga to get downloaded completely.

talking about fangirling eh?

all this was 5 b.c.
:)

Monday, March 4, 2013

the fact is, whether, you like it or not, there'll always be a party who'll gain from war. whoever it is, not cool bro. not cool.

i save all my comments on lahad datu issues mainly due to conflicting news spread.

when i was young, a teacher if mine, or probably some influentel adult back then told me that you hold a great responsibility when you become a judge. hypothetically speaking, one of your feet is in heaven, another is in hell. that is just to show how really big the liability of a judge.

now when i think of it again, historians does bear the same responsibility. what they write will shape the mind and spirit of future generation. it's pretty much a subjective and subliminal stuff that we don't realize until we do start to think. "orang yg tidak mengetahui" is being repeated in Al-Quran which most of time associated with stupidity (pardon my vocab).

hence, it's not a wonder that rumours says stealing manuscript is part of war scheme. and that history is written by winners.

may Allah protect us from fitnah. wallahu'alam.

Thursday, February 21, 2013

aku tak tahu sebulan cuti ni buat aku lebih matang atau cuma menghilangkan sedikit demi sedikit lapisan kesabaran aku. tak mudah, sungguh tak mudah untuk kau bela orang tua kau macam mana diorang bela kau dulu. orang kata, semakin tua, semakin kita kembali macam masa kita budak-budak dulu. kalau budak, kau boleh marah. dia diam ke menangis ke, kau boleh pujuk. macam mana kalau mak abah kau nakal macam budak-budak kecik? kau nak jerit suruh diorang behave? huh, free free kena panggil anak derhaka.

sungguh, cuti ni aku mungkin tak kerja tambah duit. tapi aku mula belajar macam mana tentang hubungan yang matang. mungkin kalau dulu aku mudah melontarkan komen dan pendapat tentang sesuatu senario. tapi sekarang aku lebih faham. you are not in their shoes, you can't tell the whole story. mak bapak boleh jaga sepuluh anak tapi belum tentu sepuluh anak boleh jaga mak bapak. iya kenyataan ini sedih tapi itulah realiti. sungguh aku tabik sesiapa yang mampu membela mak bapak sendiri. you have so much patience i could cry seeing how patient you are :'( . hanya Allah dapat membalas perbuatan baik kalian.

bila aku dah tua sikit nanti, aku tak tau sama ada aku boleh duduk serumah dan jaga mak bapak aku. many factors considered tapi semoga aku tergolong dalam golongan orang-orang yg sabar dan dapat menjaga mak bapak di hari tua mereka.
aku takut
kalau apa yang aku bayang kan terjadi
kalau yang bagus-bagus
tak apalah
suka

tapi kalau yang tak enak
macam mana?
kalau macam ayat wani ardy
“Aku mahu hiris satu sentimeter otak aku yang berisi seribu memori hempedu. Soalnya sekarang, pisau itu ada pada dia atau aku?”
senang jawapannya
pada kita

tak mahu dan tak ingin mahu
sepuluh tahun aku mungkin diam
sepuluh tahun mungkin akan ditanya
aku pilih untuk diam
diam dalam seribu perkataan

sampai masanya nanti akan aku tukar seribu perkataan
dengan seribu madah
cuma
aku harap kau masih ada
untuk beritahu
"tak apa.. kita usaha"
senyum

mungkin ini penampar untuk aku
buka mata
sedang berjalan jauh dari Tuhan
lari lah semua ke Dia
must.change.smiley.eyes. #notetoself

selama ni abah ngan akak duk mengata bila aku gelak mata hilang (padahal dorg pun sama -_-). it's genetic designed that way. aku pun tak tau nak explain cemane. lebih kurang camni la mata -> ^^ . tapi tak la tajam macam tu. fake giler you.

but partner told me something. well, i've been oblivious. must reduce the smiley eyes now. must smile round eyes now. like this -> :) gehehehe.

selama doblas hari tak mengadap blog ni sebenarnya banyak benda aku nak meluah. tapi tu lahhh.. sekarang dah ada laptop kecik maka malas aku nak membukak laptop ni. menaip kat tempat lain feeling dia tak sama you. ehek ehek ehekk.. :B

oh ya. i'm also addicted to this smiley -> :B . tak, bukan cenggitu muka aku. ish.

sebenarnya aku nak menaip untuk academic project. tapi malasnya nauzubillah..

result hari tu Alhamdulillah.. unexpectedly unexpected. tapi perasaan takde. sebab semua perasaan aku jatuh kepada dua kerja kahwin yang insya Allah bakal berlangsung tahun ni. tak, bukan aku la. aku juga sedang menanti anak buah baru. ala shayang shayang tomeiii :)

anyway, perasaan aku dah bertambah matang bila bergelumang dengan kisah orang nak kahwin ni. menambahkan kerisauan. ye la. aku tak cerita lagi kepada golongan wanita atasan tentang situasi kini walaupun telah banyak kali digasak (bersama golongan lelaki atasan). fuh, sikit punya kreatip jalan aku cari nak mengelak. apa-apa pun, Allah knows what's best for us. kita merancang, Allah juga merancang dan sesungguhnya perancangan Allah yang terbaik. risau-risau aku pun, risau lagi datin emak yang melihat anak beliau ini. kadang-kadang rasa macam derhaka sebab memanjang mengelak. how long has it been? one and a half year? fuhhh. i must've tweeted 634849 times if i were to jot down each and every answer i gave them. alaaa.. aku baru doplod satu ape (belum birthday :B). belum kumpul-kumpul duit nak pusing europe lagi, nak buat perkara-perkara senonoh lagi (eh?). ehem.

sesungguhnya seribu kali aku cakap "rilekslah mak.." pun takkan mampun merelakskan beliau. jadi mari kita minum kopi sambil tengok jodoh. dan menggelakkan olly bersama encik azlan.

Friday, February 8, 2013

sebenarnya aku nak meneruskan kerja projek akademik. tapi kenapa susah sangat nak couple dengan dia ni?!?! T.T

aku ada masalah. sebab orang lain ada masalah so aku pun nak kata aku ada masalah jugak hahahahaahahahahahahahaaha bongoknyerrrrrrrr.

anak buah kesayangan semua orang dah masuk tadika. comel gila dia pakai tudung pastu lari-lari!!! kalau tak sebab dia tengah moody tapi dia buat-buat tak moody masa tu, aku dah amik gambar dia banyak-banyak pastu gomol dia sampai pengsan. aku yang pengsan sebab penat dukung dia ekekeke. teringat-ingat masa dia kecik-kecik bayi dulu. sekarang dah pergi tadika. aaaaa.. kenapa cepat sangat membesar? T_T

mungkin sebab ni la ramai yang sanggup berkorban lepaskan peluang yang so called beso. demi melihat anak-anak mereka membesar. iskk.. nak nangis pulak rasa.


dulu aku memang tak sokong perhubungan jarak jauh atau pjj atau LDR. sebab pada aku, kalau kau tak bersama-sama depan mata, macam mana kau boleh terus ada feeling feeling? bukan ke feeling kau pada dia hanya pada angan-angan dan mimpi sendiri?
jadi sekarang dah terkena batang hidung sendiri (hahahahahahahahaha kann..), baru aku faham. tapi yang aku tak sokong tu untuk time sekolah-sekolah. sebab kadang-kadang diorang ni sorang sekolah aku, sorang sekolah 5 batu dari sekolah aku, tak pun 3 negeri jaraknya dari sekolah aku. pastu claim "ilysm" "imy" etc etc. padahal tak pernah jumpa -.- . ehem. eh apa aku nak cakap tadi? hahahaha. ohhh.. terkena batang hidung sendiri ek? haa.. itu la ceritanya.. gamble je lah. gamble tu maknanya berserah pada Yang Maha Berkuasa. kalau jadik ye jadik. kalau tak jadik ye tak jadik. kan?

wassalam.

Saturday, February 2, 2013

.tentang social network.

untuk mengepos gambar sendiri terpampang sebesar-besarnya di fesbuk adalah perkara ke 932449284042 dalam list aku. k tak tak. sebenarnya aku tak berapa gemar share gambar sebab nanti kantoi keluar jalan-jalan hahahaha.

tapi jugak, kadang-kadang mungkin aku sendiri tak perasan tentang perasaan orang lain bila tengok gambar aku. tak kisah la gambar sukaria ke menangis tangkap leleh punya. aku selalu sebenarnya jeles bila tengok orang bersukaria. mungkin sebab tu aku tak berapa gemar post gambar bersukaria dah sekarang. lagi-lagi kalau yang bersukaria tu member rapat ke agak-agak ngam ngan kita. tak ke lagi sedih sebab tak diajak? iskkk.. ecewah tade la. kalau tak diajak tu faham-faham sendiri la hahaha. k jari jahat ni. lagipun bila member-member jenis ni post pasal something tentang dia yang kita tak tau tapi lepas bukak fesbuk tau pulak kita pasal dia tak ke rasa seperti oh siapakah aku sebenarnya aku dihatimu...? :'(  aicehhh. ngade sungguh.
tentang gambar sedih, err.. perlu kah?

orang dulu takyah fesbuk dan twitter pun. i think these two things (and instageram) kills the things that make human a human.

pernah aku deactivate twitter. sebab tak tahan baca orang merungut. padahal orang-orang tu member-member sendiri jugak. nak unfollow tak sampai hati  jadi aku deactivate je la :3 . tapi lepas tu rasa macam rugi sebab banyak akaun yg aku follow adalah sumber ayat-ayat motivasi dan pembuka pencerahan minda. macam saifulislam, wardina (was. now i find her tweets are quite err... something else), lost islamic history (which is in my top list) and some others. oleh itu aku activate semula. but not as addi\ctive as before.

fesbuk pulak.. err.. kalau tak sebab group fqs, aku rasa dah lama aku deactivate. atau mungkin kerana ada sesetengah perkara kita tak mahu lepaskan?

kita ke aku?

pada aku, meneruskan pengajian di sini adalah nothing that great, nothing to brag. tapi bila aku bagitau nama institusi aku kat orang, orang jadik terbukak mata. aku pelik. dari sekolah lagi aku berjaya sambung belajar kat tempat yang dikumpulkan segala bijak pandai. yang rata-rata petik jari boleh dapat A. yang sebenarnya bila aku dah masuk tempat tu, aku duk pikir "takde menda yang bagus sangat pun tempat ni. banyak hal ada la." pada aku, dapat banyak A bermakna kau berjaya buat parents dan diri kau gembira.

tapi tu dulu.

aku tak tau sejak bila aku mula appreciate kedudukan aku sekarang. aku tak tau jugak sejak bila aku faham yang sebenarnya belajar di institusi yang bagus bukan bermakna A-class teachers and facilities. yang sebenarnya adalah apa yang aku terima dari tempat belajar aku. beyond the crappy system and place lies the beauty of learning. orang duk kata belajar kat sini asyik pasal teori dan pentingkan cgpa. tak macam kat universiti oversea. betul. it really is true. tapi rupanya yang lebih penting adalah self-development sendiri. pada aku, lecturers are held liable until the moment we open our eyes and realize about our surroundings. the moment we realize and aware of our surroundings, we are responsible of our act. aku mengepos begini bukan saja-saja. tapi aku kecewa bilamana kawan-kawan belajar aku duk pung pang pung pang menyalahkan segala benda di sekeliling. kerajaan salah, institusi salah, cikgu-cikgu sekolah salah. yang betul hanya orang luar. orang luar negara, orang yang berlainan. sebenarnya aku pun pernah sampai point tu. but the thing is, those things are beyond my control. i can't tell the teachers how to teach me, they'll do it their own way. it is me who is liable of the way i learn. i'm now clear of my niat for being here. kerana aku ingin belajar dan perbaiki diri aku. lillahita'ala. kalau ilmu yang aku dapat kat sini boleh pakai untuk aku kongsi dengan orang, maka aku akan cuba mempelajari ilmu ni sebaik mungkin. ilmu adalah milik Allah, yang aku dapat hanyalah sedikit kasih dariNya untuk aku kongsi dengan orang.

i'm happy and really grateful to Allah ta'ala for the chance He gave me. orang lain study oversea, aku study kat dalam negara lagi. dapat balik rumah every weekend lagi :B
sambil aku nak bercerita tentang memperbaiki sistem dalam negara dan orang sekeliling, sambil tu jugak la aku patut memperbaiki diri sendiri. because you know, great things start small.

Alhamdulillah.

there's only one thing in this world that i'd never ever want to trade with any other,

my parents.
Allah has grant me this awesome pair who has taken care of me since day 1 till now. shows me what love till jannah actually means, taught me how to live and raise me with so much care and attention.
abah, the only guy in my life who'd never whine when it comes to money matters.
mak, the person who taught me that being a superwoman means to love and care for her kids in health and sickness. seriously, she's got the best antibodies and i mean it!

dedicating this post to the two most important people in my life. may Allah showers His love and care towards you both in this world and hereafter.

amiinn..

2013 has come.
i need new calendar.

i spent the whole week here in college. nothing to brag about but nothing i'd ever imagine during early of 2012.
2012 ended. marking the start of mayan's pun. it isn't funny when everyone tried to be funny. you're funny if you're rare. and not bitter. sarcasm are usually made by the bitters. or whatever you wanna call yourself.
this is the first time ever i'm not at home during the new year's eve. felt quite lonely actually. i usually spent new years on my couch. or bed. it feels weird spending the night in a rented bed. the first day of holiday is in a strange place. weird.

and to whom it may concern, i wish the best in your life right now and the hereafter. new age, still, the same person :)

cleared out my closet yesterday. abah rant on me and sister having so much clothes but still wants to get more. and he forgets that he's the one going to tailor every now and then. ish. like father also like daughter -.-

i found a few stuffs which i've totally forgotten. back during school days, i was kind of thoughtful when it comes to birthdays or any special event. now? i even almost forgot my family's birthday! :3 anyway, i used to prepare little gifts for my closed friends. and some of them which i rarely contact now (sadly..). it was my fault actually. i found some jeruk in my memory box. some jeruk which i should've given to these people. there were 4 actually. regretted not sending two, relieved for keeping the other two. i don't know whether to keep on keeping them or just use them anyway. it's sort of between choosing to eat or sleep when i'm hungry and sleepy.

i should vanish now.
