SUKPA 2024

Sunday, December 01, 2024

 

Assalamualaikum. 


Actually I did not intend to participate in this year's SUKPA for some reasons. Turned out i still did. Poor me haha


SUKPA Kawasan Gombak organised by dun sebab jumlah pelajar yang agak ramai dan memudahkan dari segi pengurusan and all i think. 


The venue for this year untuk Dun GS - SLK Sports Batu Muda. Some photos for the gram (nope, this one for the blog) :p






tunggu selesai acara perbarisan

acara kategori 4 tahun








Rutin dia sama sahaja. Gen 3 akan handle Kategori 4 tahun (K4T). Acara dia setiap tahun ada 4 jenis dan separate L dan P. Jadi jumlah 8 kali permainan. 


Selepas selesai semua acara baru lah akan diadakan penyampaian pingat kepada pemenang. Sebelum tu ada acara cari gula-gula tapi disebabkan ada PASTI yang tak bawa menyebabkan acara tambahan ni dibatalkan untuk keadilan semua pihak :D (actually this part agak heated debate jugak haha sebab nya ada PASTI yang bawak gula-gula banyak, ada yang bawak sikit, ada yang tak bawak jadi take time untuk decide nak teruskan atau tak). Walaupun hanya untuk have fun, tapi kena adil la jugak dan supaya everybody satisfied. Hope so. 


Then, ambik nasik lunch (sedap lauk dia!) and balik. Sifat volunteer ni begitulah, takde elaun wang etc tapi makanan always ada :)


Alhamdulillah. Bye for now. 
















A Doctor in the House, Tun Dr. Mahathir

Wednesday, October 02, 2024

 

Hi all. 


A Doctor in the House: The Memoirs of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad


This is a memoir from our 4th Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad. Total pages - 892 and took me over a month to complete it and determined to do so before new semester starts because i learnt a lot in the process. But of course read, pause, grab another book, continue, read, pause and repeat haha. When I first grabbed it, I did not expect the memoir to be so much like a history book. I was amazed. (side story: i went to my student's house & i saw the book on the shelf and teringat, wait i have not read this and i still remember the book was pricey over rm100 i think - balik rumah terus cari yang ebook, lepas tu bila dah best baca cari yang buku fizikal pulak nak beli haih macam2 :p)


The memoir was published over a decade ago, in year 2012. There are altogether 62 chapters. I enjoyed the book and looked for the physical version in the second hand bookstores. I even thought of printing some chapters that i wanted to relate to the class because some of it are so relatable and would be a beneficial addition. 


As an avid reader, i always know whether or not the book is a repeat or not. For this one, a very thick memoir - the way i would repeat it is by picking the chapters that i wanna know about because the amount of history and information there are worth it. Because it is quite lengthy, the moment you finished the book you already forgot what was said in the earlier chapters but still as i said, i learnt a lot haha

Here are some things that i wanna mention; 


- Tun M lived his teenage years through war, British and Japanese occupation

 

- He was a doctor in practice and even had a clinic on his own. When he lose the second general election he competed in, he returned to the clinic as a doctor which he first sold to his partner when he won in the previous election 


- All three previous prime ministers were lawyers trained in London, but he was a medical doctor from a Singaporean college where he met Tun Dr. Hasmah, one of few Malay female doctors at that time 


- Hmm apa lagi eh.. 


- It has to be noted that he criticized PAS a lot haha in his writing but Tun M now already made peace with TGHH


- Tun M contributed hugely to the development of Malaysia like having our first national car, paving way to create Putrajaya, PETRONAS, Malaysia Airlines, KLCC twin towers a lot more i cant recall now 


- He was the prime minister during the 1998 currency crisis, ops lalang, arrest of our current pm :o, reformation etc


- Tun M said on Anwar which was once his deputy - "Anwar was a skilled politician and a persuasive demagogue - always convincing, he also knew how to endear himself to people". Okei saya ulang! (if you know you know)


Never overstay your welcome - his mom said and i recalled one phrase in the paper when he stepped down - berhenti makan sebelum kenyang and he also said that was one of his health tips 



 

formula 1 mentioned :D



Yup. I think that's all.

Catch Me If You Can

Wednesday, September 25, 2024

 

I just watched this movie for the second time and it took many many days haha because i keep pausing it and have no rush to finish considering i already watched it once. Sometimes I just liked to repeat movies that i deemed good and this is one of them mainly because it is a true story. 


As usual, i love detective stories but this is the real one. The way Frank became a pilot, doctor and lawyer all the while tricking everybody in those professional careers and the forgery of checks worth millions etc etc 

Not only that, he later helped the police detecting checks fraud. 

It's a good watch and one significant thing worth mentioning is the FBI Carl Hanratty who was the one responsible to track him down in the end.

Yup i enjoyed the movie. 

My current reading is the Tun M's memoir and one mental health related book from Matt Haig. 

Last night, I did some Turkish reading and answer some questions from the material i printed out before. 

The current weather is rainy and some parts in other states are having flood and I pray the safety and goodness for everyone involved. 

Few days back, Israel bombed some parts of Lebanon and also put explosives in the pagers and walkie talkie of people there which led to the death of 500+ innocent civilians. Crazy insane bloody Israel. 

That's all for now. Dont forget to recite Quran and selawat. 

Bye. 

Kelebihan Selawat Jibril

Tuesday, September 10, 2024




Bacaan selawat jibril, sangat pendek tapi ada banyak manfaat dan kelebihannya. 


Some people may say, Oh i'll just do it never mind the benefits blah blah but to me i always loved to know the khasiat and advantages of it. 


Kelebihan Mengamalkan Selawat Jibril : 


1. Dipermudahkan urusan dan diberikan rezeki yang melimpah 


2. Memperoleh rahmat dan berkah dari Allah SWT dan syafa’at dari Nabi Muhammad di hari akhirat


3. Mendapatkan pimpinan dari malaikat yang terbaik


4. Mendapat pelindungan dari Allah SWT

5. Mendapatkan pengampunan dari semua dosa-dosa yang telah diperbuatnya baik yang sengaja ataupun tak sengaja

6. Mendapat pertolongan dan keselamatan dari Allah SWT

7. Mendekatkan diri kepada Rasulullah SAW

8. Mendapatkan pertolongan di hari kiamat

9. Disambut dari malaikat apabila menjelang ajal

10. Membuka pintu rezeki

11. Membuka 70 pintu rahmat

12. Dianugerahkan keselamatan oleh Allah SWT dari segala malapetaka

13. Ditinggikan darjatnya oleh Allah SWT

14. Hatinya akan disucikan dari sifat munafik sehingga hati dan fikirannya tenang, tenteram dan damai


I listened to one ustadz saying spend some time after your prayer to recite the selawat. He says he tried to do it 500 times a day. 

If we say this for 1000 times a day, splitting it during five obligatory prayers - make it 200 times per prayer. 

But, if we dont have the pleasure of time to sit after prayer (at work etc), we can still do it whilst doing daily activities (but hard to count) but if you still wanna count and validate the numbers, we can do it 500x each during Maghrib and Subuh prayers - just recommending. 

That's it. Once i knew about this selawat, i just wanna try to say it everyday. Tak buat semua, jangan tinggal semua okayy. Friendly lovely reminder to myself. 

Wallahua'lam. 




New Watch

Tuesday, September 03, 2024

 

Assalamualaikum everyone. 


I said before that i have never bought my own watch because my dad liked to gift it to me so yup. This time around, i feel like wanting to have a leather strip watch - bcoz all i have now is kinda metal type (is the term correct?)


I told my dad so, and next i knew he asked me to go to the watch shop with him. But he said before hand, to choose the one with the metal strap like usual - the leather one would be easily damaged and luntur. Hmm okay, let's see.


We went to the shop and turned out there weren't many options with the leather strip. I try to find the ones with date and day coz i liked it, but the watch that i finally chose was without them. I was considering, okay la because the other watches i have already have them, so i can do without for this new one. 


And at this point, I am paying. I did not ask my dad to pay haha even though he was also busy picking one for himself. At the end of the day, he paid for me haha and for his watch which was much more expensive than mine. Thing is, if i knew he will pay, i surely am gonna pick another watch hahaha


Alhamdulillah. Thank you to my dad. Here are the photos i snapped in jumbled up order coz im lazy like that :p 


simple but a beauty still <3

he's paying coz he's the boss tqqq :D
