First time

Came back for the 10th Sarawak General Election..my first time voting in a democratic state.my first time in 3 years i was back for the study week before my exam, first time in 3 years i will be celebrating the Holy Week at home since i was in KL the whole time for Holy Week....this should be fun :)

Updates? not much....just love being in the comfort of my own house with familiar surroundings and places i had missed going to..going out for good dates with her especially ice cream dates ( thats her favorite ) and of course been reading my notes for exam and last minute final touches on my assignment before sending it over before the finals.

A few more weeks to go before I end my first semester, next month would be my convocation :) cant wait for it..totally excited and looking forward to it..

Missing friends in Kuching and in KL..:) you know you you are...disco skating date, reunion and pre-convo gathering with classmates and "makan besar" with good friends :)

P/S: Blessed Holy Week to all those celebrating :)

So what? :)

To be honest, for the past few weeks, life has been awesome especially with work, presentation and my social life. Life has been good to me and i could not wait to end my first semester as a Masters student..graduation for my Degree is just around the corner....waiting for it impatiently..:)

Lately, meeting up new people or friends in life is awesome. New friends in life means adding new colors and adventure and stories of a lifetime that definitely you would tell to your grandchildren in years to come. People start to speculate and gossip about you if you are too closed with someone out of the blues. Whats wrong in making new friends with others outside your social group? Especially if it was from the opposite gender? Can two opposite gender be good best friends and not more than that. i believe so.

I have nothing to hide especially in making new friends. Two important things i always put in mind when i make new friends HONESTY and SINCERITY and you will not cross the line for you know your limits..:) if i were to like her, i should had gone for her long time ago why now? why wait when theres opportunity in front of you? for i know i can see them as a good friend to laugh and share stories around.

So what is the problem here? there is no problem at all...people need to have a better view and clearer mind and head to see the whole situation in a bigger scope...do not speculate for it leads to nowhere..

P/S: When you come from different walks of life it should be an interesting friendship...

War Afternoon

Was reading some articles and searching for information on war when I decided to goggle up for the types of war in the past history...

Question ~ What are some of the examples of war..?

Answer ~ Scroll down to the picture to find out the list of war....

To my understanding of war....isn't it supposed to be THIS?

P/S:The power of Google.....break from my reading routine :)

Classmate's Big Day

Last Saturday i went for my classmate's akad nikah in Shah Alam. One thing for sure it was a fun, exciting and interesting aspect of marriage as it was my very own classmate who was getting married. Shes the youngest in our class among 14 of us and shes the first to get married to another friend of ours....

The ceremony was simple yet sweet and meaningful.... both of them are a sweet couple :)

(Pictures maybe not that clear and in good quality..oh well just a compact camera with no wide angle lense and all the gizmos...)

The outside of the mosque...the one in white and pink kain samping is the bridgegroom @ Juon

I think is my first time stepping into a mosque...its beautiful..to me all holy place of worship are unique and beautiful

The time has arrived.....in front of everybody 

A few reflections and wisdom from the Tok Kadi ( correct me if i am wrong about this)

Thats Hana and her dad....

Signing of marriage papers

Hana...:)

Juon putting on this bracelet for Hana...

Exchanging of gifts...

You may kiss the bride..take your time but not too long :P

Mr and Mrs Juwaidi :)

Sweet couple....

Managed to get a group photo with the newly wed bride and bridegroom

Classmates who made it for the ceremony :)

Farah, Ainul, Mahiran, Hani and Me.....

This was at home and the pelamin looks awesome..simple yet eye catching...

Meeting up old friends @ Fatin who was our practical mate way back in the old company * memories that we would like to put away for good..we do laugh about it the times we had back in THAT company *

Now she said that me and Mahiran does look like siblings....i do not see which part that resembles the similarity of me and Mahiran as siblings...the glasses?

Anyways congrats to Juon and Hana...may God bless you and guide you in your newly married life...hope to see you having kids in the coming years to come...and they will be calling us your friends aunties and uncles...:)

P/S: 1 down 15 to go left of our classmates..who will be next?

I Got Fined.....

Now with people scrambling to pay their summons on the very last minute, i too joined in the line just to clear my summon as tomorrow would be the last day before they start blacklisting and knocking on your door for it..my offence? not wearing a seatbelt...last year in the month of January and i think i remembered the incident..:)

Lucky i got the discount/promotion rate of RM40, if not there goes my RM80....it took me the whole night just to access the system to find out if i got any summons...

To be honest that's my first summon in my entire driving career @ the first one in KL

On the other hand i just love my new ATM cards @ BSN and Bank Islam..new look and design..fresh concept..gor it replaced...

The BSN above looks funky and the Bank Islam looks like a credit card to me..

The old and new version of the Bank Islam ATM cards....

Is the right time to changed my cards since i will be using them for a very long time :)

Now i am waiting for my new identity card....

P/S: Remember to drive with a seatbelt and take good care of your personal cards..

Mind Your Language

I used to watch this typical British sitcom a.k.a Mind Your Language when i was in primary school but during those time i did not understand most of the series as most of it was in the British accent and it was rated PG-18 if i was not mistaken....it was shown in NTV7 or TV1 during those times....and now i am watching it all over again..understanding each of the episode :)

It is all about different foreign students coming for English lesson under an English teacher known as Mr Brown. He tries his best to teach English especially when they are not well verse in English but of course it was not easy task for one man alone. English was being turn upside down by his students every episode and making English language even funnier with crude jokes, miss communication and misunderstood the whole language itself.

Guess thats how important English is..is all about giving our best and not to be afraid to try to speak and be literate in English. Do not worry for those who mock you for being too "English" trying to speak English when you would forget about your mother tongue. Is all about being knowledgeable and able to grasp the language itself for the future. We can see how we Malaysian are lack of language studies especially English where most of the time is the spoken and written language in Malaysia. ( that is base on my personal experience and opinion)

And so lets give English a chance to live with us and especially for the younger generation

P/S: Mind your language please all of us

Updates: Pros and Cons

Is been a while since my last post..CNY holidays was okay...spend my time reading and doing my assignments during the holiday break.....trying to adjust to my new life as a student again on another level...is been an exciting and one good experience doing my master at this point of life...

So much has been debated whether it is a wise choice to continue my studies directly after my degree...basically the point are divided into pros and cons :

PROS

I am still young...so by the time i get my master ( with God's blessing and guide) i be 24/25...imagine i pursue my PhD ? i be a DR by the age of 30..*blink blink*


Still fresh from my degree level...so is not much of a education gap compared to those who had left their campus life 20 25 years ago....able to compete and absorb information easily? (some say)


Doing it full time meaning i could focus my studies easily...maybe :P (1 1/2 years to go)

CONS

I am a fresh grad with no experience.. most of the students are working adults with experiences...is not advisable to pursue directly....(some say)

If i were to graduate with a master in hand..my basic salary is a normal salary base as i had no working experience...so my master is just by name? not sure about that...

Is hard to get a job? if you are doing your master full time? most companies are not keen ( base on experience)

Level of education is way way different than my degree level...approach is different...

Well..is all about individual preferences..what you think is best for you and your future...to me...doing it now is a slight advantage as i would not want to pursue my studies later when i am working in the future..focus one by one....don't be too greedy :)....

P/S: My books just for the first semester..have a nice day everyone :)

Updates

Right now..a few things in mind;

>Need to get a job @ need cash FAST...part time or full time...does not matter....

>Studies are in the right track..putting my mind and heart on the right track...assignments and reading materials are in....TOTALLY a different world of education..is more of a critical and analytical thinking in class...

> Cant wait for my convocation...kinda excited about it tho :)...

> My life now revolves around journals, books, notes on propaganda and information propaganda, media propaganda, public diplomacy..politics and wars @ psychological warriors...:)

P/S: Knowledge and education is the key to success.....

Going to Pakoh - Part 2

Supposed to post this up long time ago..but took my time to post something else up....

I went back to see my grandma for years i have not met, is fun going back to met my grandma for she lives in a long house :) so its a different scene all along for me....

Of course when we were there, she is always in the kitchen or she will be sleeping or taking her beautiful nap ( she does the same thing all the time without fail each time we are back to the long house)

Meet my grandma....never knew she had this typical grandma smile :) she was concern if she was not at her best looks for this photo... conscious minded..LOL

Me and my grandma...

Me and my grandma....shes around 92-93 years old......but does not look that old for her age...she can even walk and does daily chores like a 50-60 year old grandma @ shes a super grandma...

The door to my grandma's " bilik " number 8...

The " ruai " of my grandma's longhouse...i used to run from one end to another when i was small....11 door long house...so imagined playing futsal in the " ruai " area....the floors would have different sounds each time you walk on it.....

This is something new in the long house..a new road leading to the back of the long house...

This is the front part of the long house..mostly used as a place to dry clothings and their harvest...(maybe).....and the toilet is located far away from the " bilik "...so that small hut you see above is the toilet....hygiene purposes thats why is being placed outside the " ruai "...

The end of the long house @ 11th " pintu " or " bilik "...

The front view@ main door of the long house

This suspension bridge is always the fun and scary part and yet without fail i would come and would sit in the middle of the bridge...the scary part is when the bridge is swinging sideways and if it swings too far...you end up below....

 The river...trust me you would not want to be down there...

Crocodiles.....trust me...

P/S: It may be funny living in a long house...but is  something different and  not everybody had the chance to be in a long house....
