Travelling

 Travelling has always been on my mind these few days just because I've been binge watching Joanna Salein on her journey to many parts of the word tracking history.  I always wonder how it's like to travel without thinking you'll be on short of money. I can just spend my money on experiences that I could never buy anywhere.  I love travelling. When I was studying in New Zealand in 2007 and 2008, I'd always looking forward to holidays. I was extremely excited when I comes to road trips. The best road trip that I had was South Island road trip in winter. I was amazing.  Memang sukar untuk digambarkan dengan kata-kata apabila aku pergi memandu di Pulau Selatan, New Zealand. Semua pemandangan yang aku lihat semuanya mirip dalam gambar. Bukan gambar biasa-biasa tetapi gambar yang macam dalam kalendar yang kita biasa lihat di rumah. Ianya sangat mempesonakan. Aku sangat kagum dengan ciptaan Allah. Mungkin juga disebabkan aku dapat melihat jauh sehingga saujana mata memanda...

Adult

 Adulthood When I was young I was so eager to be an adult. Little did I know about being an adult. I imagined being an adult was being free from parents and earn own money and I could travel to the far and wide distance.  But   I was totally wrong about it. I hate being an adult. I just hate it. Since becoming an adult, I've had so much responsibilities that I need to fulfil. Okay, I'm sleepy now. See? I told you. Adult can sleep later than 10 pm. Sleepy already. Okay bye. 

Anecdote

Anecdote. I was born in a family where education wasn't as important as putting food on the table. I could say that, I was born in a poor family but food wasn't scarce. My father was a hardworking man whose first priority was to make sure we were all fed and got educated.  The earliest memory I had was when I was playing hide and seek with my siblings or maybe my friends. I hid behind a plank of wood which was place upright. I didn't realised there was a nail sticking out of it and it cut my thigh. It was big - about 3 centimetres long and the cut was deep but I was too afraid to let my parents know about it. Hence, I wasn't brought to the hospital for stitching and  the scar was a big as ever. Still visible till today.  Besides, I also remember when I was young and carefree, I loved to climb the guava trees in front of my house. It wasn't ours. It was our neighbours trees but they didn't mind the village kids climb it and pick the guavas. Big, small and even th...

Over Expecting

 Again, I'm just writing for fun and I'm sure every opinion matters.  It's is very worrisome how the principle are pushing their teachers to do work more than they can do. During this pandemic where teachers are suppose to do their job online, some principle are forcing their teachers to go to school and fulfil the online teaching at school even though they know the school internet connection isn't stable and good.  Some teachers like me myself, have superior internet connection at home where I'm using fibre and it's so much easier for me to do my job especially when I do google meet as well as personal video call with my pupils to assist them with their work. On the contrary, when I'm at the school, I'm forced to use my own personal hotspot from my phone which I can say it's a lot spottier and the connection isn't as good as when I'm at home.  I jst need to channel my frustration here. Okay that's it for today. 

After so many years

 Oh my god, after so many years I haven't visited my website aka blog. Haha things have changed this days. People don't read other people blogs anymore. They just mind their own business, are they? lol. They aren't. They are even nosier nowadays reading Facebook comments and latest gossips that keep changing every now and then.  Well, I don't know what makes me jump to this page. I was looking through my files and found a bog from an old acquittance who is cikgurahimah.blogspot.com. She hasn't been writing much also. Last post I saw from her was in 2010 which was the year I was interviewed by her before I got the permanent job as a teacher in Semporna. This is the year of pandemic, we're having a crisis of Covid-19 which is spreading like wildfire, actually even worst than that. It already has taken all countries in this world, infecting many and killed a lot more than we can imagine.  All flights are affected and many are stranded. I was stranded too with my fa...

Universiti Malaysia Sabah

Hi now you're seeing me again after a long time of not posting here. Now I have something to write about, so I feel like telling you. Today, I went to Kampus or College or Kampung E or whatever you want to call it for breakfast before I went for my examination. When I set my foot there, I was really shocked that the place was really horrible with lots of rubbish on the table as well as stains on the floor. I couldn't believe it that the place is actually a University and it is within the perimeter of the UMS Main Campus. So, if you see a lot of rubbish there what do you think of the students there? They don't seem to be having consciousness about civic. Don't you think so? So whoever think that they are from the UMS and you think you're campus is clean. Think again, it's because of the cleaning engineers that make the place clean. I'm sure without the engineers, UMS would be rubbish filled field. Sorry for the comments. I was just saying about the Univ...

Mind maps and thinking maps

Image
Recently schools are taught a so called new ways to do mind mapping called Thinking maps to enhance students thinking. It is good for teachers to make their students think. This new programme is called I-think. Here it goes my Saturday for this stuff that we already know. Another rebranding of mind mapping.

what?

Salam and hello, I haven't updated my blog for ages and here I am typing to add some stuff to it. Today when. I was watching television I heard a song. It is lovely and it is about love. I think I heard it before but i have no idea where i heard it. Here is the lyric: Lirik Firmal Idol Kehilangan Ku coba ungkap tabir iniKisah antara kau dan akuTerpisahkan oleh ruang dan waktuMenyudutkanmu meninggalkankuKu merasa tlah kehilanganCintamu yang tlah lama hilangKau pergi jauh karena salahkuYang tak pernah menganggap kamu ada*Asmara memisahkan kitaMengingatkanku pada dirimuGelora mengingatkankuBahwa cintamu tlah merasuk jantungkuReff:Sejujurnya ku tak bisaHidup tanpa ada kamu aku gilaSeandainya kamu bisaMengulang kembali lagi cinta kit...

Mari Buat Lampu Guna Botol Soda

Image
Ada penduduk di Brazil yang memang penyedia perkhidmatan elekrik yang hampeh. So mereka mengambil inisiatif untuk membuat lampu mereka sendiri. Tetapi lampu ini memang tidak menggunakan elektrik langsung. :P Sangat menarik dan creative. :) Sepatutnya kita semua dah lama guna sahaja cahaya matahari ini. Bagus. Kita perlukan orang yang kreative-kreative macam ni dalam dunia supaya benda yang kita buang tiap-tiap hari boleh dijadikan benda yang bermanfaat kepada kehidupan harian kita. :) Caiyok... tengok ni.. dan cuba buat kat rumah.Lampu ini menyamai 50w metol. :)

Bersedekahlah

Hadis dari Abu Dzar r.a. bahawa Rasulallah SAW yang bermaksud, “Tidak ada lain dari anak Adam itu sedekah pada tiap-tiap hari yang naik matahari padanya.” Bertanya para sahabat, “ "Dari mana datangnya harta untuk kami bersedekah wahai Rasulallah?” Sabda Nabi, “Bahawa pintu-pintu kebajikan itu banyak; Tasbih, Takbir, Tahlil, Amar makruf dan nahi (mencegah) mungkar, membuang duri di jalan, mendengar orang pekak, menunjuk jalan kepada orang buta, menunjuk arah perjalanan kepada yang meminta ditunjuk, memberi air minuman kepada yang dahaga, menolong meringankan beban orang yang tidak berdaya. Semua itu sedekah bagi diri kamu.” Malah dalam riwayat yang lain menambah, “Senyum anda terhadap saudara anda adalah sedekah.” (Hadis riwayat Ibn Hiban dan Al Baihaqi)

continuation to "Really Traditional Masssage (Mystical)"

Well, I went to the place again yesterday (19th January 2011) to further check up and I was told beforehand to bring a small bottle by Agus as an additional stuff to the stuffs that the Pakcik wanted me to bring to complete the 'ritual'. Here I call it a ritual for I have no idea what the real thing is. Then, Irmaz and I went to fetch Agustina at her residency and then we went straight to the Jalan Bukit Kamiri where the humble Pakcik and his beloved family reside. We arrived there at about 7 pm (+8 Malaysian Time) ;P, and luckily I remember to bring torch light from Syahmi to tread the bush in a small truck-way heading to the Pakcik's house. The old rusty gate was chained and padlocked so that no vehicles can pass so we had to brave on foot by passing in a small hole beside the gate. It took about 5 minutes to get there like I said before. Well, when we were almost there, as usual (as if I come there often) the dogs came after us and barked at us while surrounding us. We d...

Really Traditional Massage (Mystical)

After I have been feeling painful shoulder and joins especially around ankles and soars almost everyday, I decided to ask my friend, an ustazah to find me a person who can help with the massage. She found a person who is a 'bidan', a person who usually massage a pregnant women if anything happens to their carriage. However, the bidan wasn't available and couldn't be reached via phone so she cancelled it and ask Agustina Oskar to find a person for me. Well, here the story starts. I went to see Agustina today (17 january 2011) to take me to see the Pakcik. I don't know the pakcik's name for I forgot to ask him. Haha...Along the way, we stopped by to get two boxes of cigarrets for the pakcik cause he asked for it. After we arrived at the place we had to brave through a palm oil plantation in the pitch black night. We had to go through the dark palm oil plantation with a cellphone torchlight, it was not very bright for us to see what was coming. I couldn't use m...

Gambaran Kiamat

Gambaran Hari Qiamat ✐ Selepas Malaikat Israfil meniup sangkakala (bentuknya seperti tanduk besar) yang memekakkan telinga, seluruh makhluk mati kecuali Izrail & beberapa malaikat yang lain. Selepas itu, Izrail pun mencabut nyawa malaikat yang tinggal dan akhirnya nyawanya sendiri. ✐ Selepas semua makhluk mati, Tuhan pun berfirman mafhumnya "Kepunyaan siapakah kerajaan hari ini?" Tiada siapa yang menjawab. Lalu Dia sendiri menjawab dengan keagunganNya "Kepunyaan Allah Yang Maha Esa lagi Maha Perkasa." Ini menunjukkan kebesaran & keagunganNya sebagai Tuhan yg Maha Kuasa lagi Maha Kekal Hidup, tidak mati. ✐ Selepas 40 tahun, Malaikat Israfil a.s. dihidupkan, seterusnya meniup sangkakala untuk kali ke-2, lantas seluruh makhluk hidup semula di atas bumi putih, berupa padang Mahsyar (umpama padang Arafah) yang rata tidak berbukit atau bulat seperti bumi. ✐ Sekelian manusia hidup melalui benih anak Adam yg disebut "Ajbuz Zanbi" yang berada di hujung tula...

What's love?

When I am in love I live. I sleep. I do what I want. I care. I love. I hate. Just don't, don't dig in too deep. Just leave. Just leave the past behind. Look. Look into the future. Cherish the present. Fight. Argument. They are salt and pepper in life. Love is not what we say. I love you. It's simple. Everyone can say this. Love is what we do. We wait. We care. We wait. We care. We can wait as long as it take. I love you. I love you so much. But sometimes, a person don't show. Don't show their love. They hide it. Ego. Thanks to Ego. Ego makes it so. But deep down in their heart is love. They love but they don't show. It's just difficult. I love. I love. Those three words are just a mere words. Actions do the rest. However, action can only take place when two are together. Not necessarily. Just that from me. I love.

Kereta : Penjimatan Petrol

Seringkali kita perkatakan tentang penggunaan minyak kenderaan kita yang semakin mahal. Bukan sahaja didebabkan oleh kenaikan harga bahan api di Malaysia bahkan di dunia ini sendiri. Secara umumnya, bahan api memang sangat banyak tetapi propaganda yang dibuat-buat oleh orang barat terutamanya syarikat pencarigali minyak seperti BP, Shell, Petronas dan lain-lain. Jadi, ikutilah tip-tip dari saya ini untuk membantu anda sendiri menjimatkan minyak kereta anda selain dapat menambah duit dalam akaun bank anda. :) 1. Kurangkan tekan minyak Jika anda jenis suka tekan minyak, cuba kurangkan tekan minyak anda. Sekiranya anda menggunakan kereta jenis automatik, jangan terus tekan minyak secara melulu untuk mendapatkan kelajuan dengan pantas. Tekan perlahan-lahan dan anda akan dapat rasakan yang kereta anda menukar gear secara perlahan-lahan. Ini dapat membantu menjimatkan petrol anda. Selain dari itu, tahukah anda bahawa penggunaan minyak anda boleh diturunkan sebanyak 15 peratus (%) sekiranya a...

A new teacher experience a new life!

Salamm and Hello, We meet again after so long that I haven't write anything here. I went to school today and I got a comment telling me that some people are backbiting me. I don't know who the persons are however, I don't give a damn about them. I really hate to say this but it must be said and people should know that If you have a problem with someone please tell that someone so that the problem is clarified. I have no idea what I said that offended some people here in Perfect ( a very small town, far far away from civilization, ironically it's not perfect at all). I just can't bear it when got to know about it from other person, thank god I have some one who is kind to me. She told me about it and I am now cautious with whom am I going to talk to and how. I don't think I'll make friends with anyone from here anymore. I'll just keep everything to myself. It's better that way. Be with yourself. Play with yourself. Have no word with the others. I jus...

Semporna

Image
Salam and Hello, Welcome to my blog, once again I salute you. I'm currently in teaching in Semporna, Sabah and how I love this place very much. It is one of the beautiful places that you can find in Malaysia or probably the world. However, because the people who live here in Semporna who do not know (ignorant) about conserving the environment, the place has becoming polluted with rubbish and oil spills. Don't blame me for all these. I don't know and I just came here. Here is a little bit information about Semporna. Semporna is a very small town located in Tawau Division , in the east coast of Sabah , Malaysia on the island of Borneo . Its population was estimated to be around 133,000 in 2006. They have quite a number of people here but the living standard is very high compared to the wages that they earn everyday (most of them). However, I can see that there are many rich people around the town as well. So, I can say that the wealth distribution of the place is not even. T...

The Day You Went Away

Image
This is a song for the girls that I am going to miss and I am missing at the moment. I really enjoyed teaching the girls and they were really nice to me. I was touched by the gifts and things that they said in their cards and some of them even made it themselves and they were being really creative. I saw the video that form 2E made for me. It was really sad. I wish I had never have to leave them and wanting to teach them better and try to educate them better as well. However, life is like that. In life there are meetings and people should never say good bye instead people would always say SEE YOU AGAIN for there is still hope that we can meet again. I never thought that I’d love the school. I received so many gifts from you girls. Thank you so much for giving me great gifts and your words on your cards really touched my heart. I was almost broke into tears when I was about to leave you girls but I didn’t want to do such thing. It was really hard for me to start the engine and to drive ...
