Me and Books

Saturday, September 29, 2018

the world was hers for the reading 




Bismillah.
Today, on this serene weekend, i’ll share my love on books! Yes, you read it right. Books !

Sounds lovely? Hehe

Orait, to start with, i read  a lot of books. I mean a huge lot, since i was a young girl with no money. I saved everyday and at the end of the month @ in two months time, i'll ask ayah to bring me to bookshop in Kota Bharu, either Pustaka Seri Intan or Syarikat Muda Osman (SMO). I read many kinds of books up until  a point i can form my own opinion from the author and i beg to differ from the authors’ views. No, i dont mean im boasting over myself, but that is just what happens when you do read.

Before, when i see people discussed on things about books and the authors’ views and share their own, i had a conflict @ inner crisis with myself. I keep thinking why i am yet to form my own opinion? I feel so lame and angry with myself for that incapability. Later on the stage of my life, with increasing age haha, i am now proud to say i am mature enough to at least create an argument with the author and not everything they say i agree. I am not carried away by the winds anymore and i believed i stood on my ground firmly. 

Come on, i mean what we read do influence us. Just to give an example to make it clearer, when one author comment about the bad experience he had about one political party, and you arent matured enough, you’ll just follow suit and agree with what he said. Another one, when one author wrote a book on this title but she deliberately talked mostly unrelated to the title, you know you dont like the book ahahah. Or, when you read books and you decided you wont go near the authors’ book anymore because you kinda guessed what the book will say hihi. Nonetheless, you’ll find many more books that are eye openers, informative and you’ll of course love the author.

I quite dont believe how patient i was during younger times and i feel like turning back to those time. Not only because i was more patient but beacuse i dont have to think of many things. (and no worries whatsoever about paying bills :p) Okay back to the topic. I was patient to wait until i was in lower form to buy the educational magazines like e-Siswa, Dewan Siswa and to wait until upper secondary to buy for the appropriate edu mags like Fokus SPM. And i waited until i was done with schools to start buying another books other than exercise books like motivational books and other stuffs. When i was still at school, i always rationalize myself telling things like rm20 for a book can buy me FOUR exercise books. I started shopping on lots of motivational, religious and mind blowing books when i was in matriculation. At that time, all matric students received allowance per semester. I cant remember how much. And these shopping continues until.... RIGHT NOW! Hihi. I recalled ayah asking me, dont uni students only read story books? Hehehe i told him we have this semester thingy and when a semester ended, we will learn new courses the next semester hence i dont read those heavy textbooks during semester breaks :D

I will read heavy materials type of books in my room and focused. For light material type of books like story books, i’ll just read it everywhere. I always despise myself if i dont bring any books as a company anywhere i go -_- huhu That’s just plainly me.

One more thing is, i'd love to share what i read but many just dont bother. Okay, they even laughed at me. Its alright because i had long created a wordpress specially for books sharing.

Here is the link, you might want to see it, so here you go!




Rezeki dari Allah

Sunday, September 23, 2018






Bismillah.


Minggu lepas, handsock yang anis order dengan kawan-kawan baru sampai. Eksaited nak pakai sebab lama dah tak beli handsock baru. Kain jenis moss crepe, harga rm7 dari Hijab Galleria.


Bila sampai, terus buka bungkusan dan pakai. Eh, apesal rasa ketat semacam ni? Rupanya ada getah kat hujung lengan tu. Okei, takpelah bukak dulu. Nanti balik rumah pakai balik. Tengok-tengok memang ketat sungguh dan tak boleh pakai pun. Adoi. Yang kawan-kawan beli sekali pun tak boleh pakai. Hmmm.

~~~

Hari Sabtu ada tusyen macam biasa untuk upsr, kelas terakhir sebab minggu depan dah periksa. Lepas habis kelas, maknya Iman bagi hadiah dalam paper bag Rina Salleh Clothing.


Allah.. terkejut tengok. Dah selalu dok skrol-skrol tengok dress RSC sebab cantik dan ekslusif cuma belum mampu lagi nak beli sendiri.

Balik rumah, bukak kotak tengok ada printed blouse RSC dan sepasang handsock RSC. Handsock pulak warna greyish, sama dengan handsock yang tak boleh pakai tu 😢

Allahu. Maka nikmat Allah yang manakah kamu dustakan? Allah memberi rezeki dalam keadaan yang tak disangka-sangka. Allahuakbar. Kitalah yang selalu leka dan alpa huhu.



Blouse tu pulak memang cantik dan selesa. Lama dah dok tengok di website rsc, rupanya Allah rezekikan dapat baju tu. 


Allah bukan setakat ganti handsock tu, tapi Allah tambah lagi. Dapat blouse cantik tu ;'(

Alhamdulillah alhamdulillah syukur kepada Allah.

Benarlah, hikmah tu ada di mana-mana. Tinggal kita sahaja yang sedar atau tidak.

Ya Allah, ampunilah dosa hambaMu ini yang selalu bersangka-sangka. Bantulah aku untuk sentiasa bersangka baik dengan setiap perancanganMu ya Allah. Sesungguhnya aku hambaMu yang lemah.





Azam Tahun Baru Hijri

Tuesday, September 11, 2018










Bismillah. 

Azam tahun baru 1440 H ni ada satu je, buat masa ni iaitu nak habiskan hafalan Surah al Baqarah. 

Mula hafal lama dah, malu nak sebut 😅

Hafal, tinggal hafal tinggal. Jadinya dulu terakhir sempat hafal dan ingat sampai muka surat terawal juzuk 2. 

Sekarang ni, target nak habiskan hafalan by Disember 2018. Maksudnya ada dalam 3 bulan lebih lagi. Sekarang baru muka surat 22. Ada dalam 20 muka surat lebih lagi nak kena hafal, dan nak kena murajaah balik juzuk 1. 

Semoga Allah bantu dan permudahkan hambaNya yang dhaif ni.

Holidays Thoughts

yeah i will :)

Bismillah.

Life offers me many choices, which sometimes i thought i could have chosen better options.
Anyhow, i learnt along the way not to regret on my decisions. I used to always affirm myself before deciding on any matters especially big ones.

I cried the first time i saw on the screen i got accepted into uia and i dont appreciate it at that time mainly because i was applying for overseas unis. Some relatives even coaxed me to register at matriculation centre and take up on biological science course and lead a path to become a medical doctor. I recalled Abe Joe talking with me in a dismal tone over the phone after he got to know i scored a B for my biology paper. He is a surgeon himself and only later on i realised he wanted me to be a doctor. But, i’ve chosen another path for myself even before i completed my SPM. I'm sorry :(

At secondary school, i thought it looked cool for adults because they have more serious discussions and they have bills to pay. Ridiculous. Being and adult myself, i tell you paying bills are not cool or awesome at all haha. Serious discussions are sometimes good and other times give you headache and look at how I envy my small students for them not having any problems to think of. Living so freely and lively. Nonetheless, this doesnt mean we should not enjoy living as adults because we should appreciate and see the beauty in everything. That’s how you’ll enjoy life much better.

When i was  a student at uni, i only think about my grades, studies, quizzes, exams and those things. I never thought about earning money because i have that education loan. Many friends were asking, why dont i got myself a scholarship and others dont believe i was loaning from ptptn. Sometimes, i just smile. It turned out that i had terrible experience with scholarships from degree to masters study. Maybe, it is just not fated for me. I wrote about this once before.

Now, im earning myself a salary every month on a job that i am not really into. Or, i liked it but not for a profession.

Most of the times, i reflected on myself and i choose to say positive words, positive things and smile. But, when i dont like something or someone, i just cant hide it. I believed it is shown all over my face. My bad.

Now, i actually should be doing something else, but just wanna pen down something here. I cant believe i have been writing for some years now and i hope i will still.

this is scary :0

8. You must not let a single day pass without working in progress for your thesis, everyday should have progress even a tiny one, even just a single line and even just arranging your materials and what not. All that matters. To keep the spirit high and visible.

9. Tell Allah everything you are feeling, He listens all time. When there is no one for us to look to, return to Him for He’s always there.

10. The journey will consist of many life events but you must still go on and continue no matter what happen.

11. There are times you’ll feel you wanna quit and just let it be, or you are asking yourself why you are doing what you are doing and etc. Those are the crucial times when you have to reflect why you start at the first place.

11. PhD journey is entirely on you. Yes, you are responsible for your journey.

12. PhD is not for everyone, it is a certificate which build your scholarly element hence it is not easy and never expect it will because it aint easy. huhu

13. You must always tell yourself that you are different from your other friends or colleagues. You dont have that much time to waste unnecessarily. 

14. PhD is something that will grow you intellectually.

15.  Passionate. The most important thing you must own in blood. Do something that you are passionate enough.
