starting a new life

back as a student

at a new place

with a new spirit

learning totally a different thing

developing new skills

opening more doors

of opportunity

Blank...

Totally blank..

It's nothing..

black..

My brain suddenly shut down

staring blankly at nothing

hear nothing, did nothing

absolute nothing..

belajar bahasa

aku baca novel 1515 karya faisal tehrani semalam.

First time baca karya die.

Khabarnya pernah menang hadiah sastera kumpulan utusan 2002.

I quote this part from the novel about justice..how true it is..

"Kisah hamba ini kisah orang muda.Orang muda yang berkhidmat untuk negerinya.Membuat jasa untuk agama.Melakar sejarah murni.Kisah hamba ini ialah kisah tentang kebenaran tak selalu dapat ditegakkan seperti yang kita harapkan.Bahawa sehingga hari kiamat, saat ada keadilan, sudah tentu ada kezaliman.Dan kekejaman tidak akan dapat kita tewaskan seperti yang kita mau kerana ia sifat manusia meski bukanlah ia sesuatu yang manusiawi"

another part..

"Harapan hamba sejarah akan dibaca. Sejarah akan mengajar.Dan anak muda akan belajar.

subject sejarah dulu aku dapat apa yek??

<

ada satu lagi karya dia yg ingin aku baca 1511H[KOMBAT]

tp belum berkesempatan

karya yg ni pulak pemenang Hadiah Sastera Kumpulan Utusan - Exxonmobil 2003.

dah lama sangat dah rasanya tak baca novel Melayu..

dulu selalu kalau baca pun novel2 cintan..

Itu pu aku pinjam2 dari Uji....hehe

SULUHKAN SINAR

bayangkan hanya berbumbung langit

berdinding sekadar angin

kerana syurga mereka telah dimamah bencana

satu harta yang tinggal...hanya nyawa

bayangkan semua insan tercinta

dirampas sekelip mata hilang entah ke mana

nisan pun tiada tempatnya

warisan keluarga hanya pada nama

oh Tuhan ... beri ketabahan hati mereka

menempuh dugaan yang melanda

kita sesama manusia turut mendoakan

agar Kau suluhkan sinar dan harapan

ketika kita bersyukur dilindung

ada mereka diselubung pilu

mengharungi hidup bergantung pada simpati

masa depan hanya sejauh esok hari

oh Tuhan ... beri ketabahan hati mereka

menempuhi dugaan yang melanda

kita sesama manusia turut mendoakan

agar Kau suluhkan sinar dan harapan

vocal by 100 local artist from various recording company

song by Edry Abdul Halim

ketukan itu jelas

nyaring

ku merayau dalam kegelapan

mengintai cahaya itu

mencari arah

cemas

nafasku laju

menyesak didada..lelah

pantas derap langkahku

membelok

menuju sana

ku temu dia

duduk .. menggamitku

tangannya menggeletar

ketukannya mencari perhatian

duduknya tidak berdaya

ketarnya pohon bantuan

aku sayu

lemah terasa

perasaan itu

menyesak terus di dada

walau malam semakin larut

akhirnya

kolam mataku pecah jua

menangisi nasib dia yg ku temui

Quake devastation

INNA LILLAHI WA INNA ILAIHIRAJI'UUN

"Sunday's quake, first struck at 7:59 a.m (0059 GMT) off the coast of Aceh province on the northern Indonesian island of Sumatra and appeared to swing north into the Andaman islands in the Indian Ocean. It triggered a tsunami ...

The wall of water up to 10 meters (33 ft) high that followed the earthquake killed more than 21,500 people across southern Asia as it swept across the Indian Ocean."

- CNN

Heard quite a shocking news about earthquake on Sunday.

I have relatives in Sumatra. Most of them in Acheh, the worst hit area.

Didn't heard any news about them yet till today.

Communication lines was cut by the disaster.

I've been to Acheh once 10 years ago

and it was quite devastating seeing pictures of the district after tsunami.

Below is a reporter's comments from BBC

I have got to know this area during my trips to Aceh over the past two years. Banda Aceh used to be a bustling market area, there were fruit and vegetable stalls and cafes along the sides of the road.
Now it is absolutely wrecked. There is mud, debris, masonry, cars, motorbikes, all upturned, mangled, covered in mud. And in the midst of it all, you can see limbs sticking out, bodies still lying where they were left when the water retreated.
And up on a roof in front of me, there are more dead bodies.
Behind that there is the famous mosque of Banda Aceh. Most of that seems to have remained remarkably intact but all around is a sea of catastrophic devastation. The mosque's clock is stopped at 8.25 - the time the wave struck.
-BBC's Rachel Harvey was one of the first western correspondents to reach Banda Aceh in north-western Indonesia, the closest land to the epicentre of the earthquake and now a scene of devastation.

However..

"barangkali di SANA ada jawabnya

mengapa ditanahku terjadi bencana

mungkin Tuhan mulai bosan

melihat tingkah kita yg selalu salah dan bangga dgn dosa-dosa

atau alam mulai enggan

bersahabat dgn kita

cuba kita bertanya

pada rumput yg bergoyang...."
lirik lagu/puisi "Berita Buat Kawan" - Ebiet G. Ade

(found this in a blog..forgot the address)

Hope for those affected ...be strong!! we all pray for you!!

Al FATIHAH kepada saudara muslim kita yg terkorban..

TERJEMAHAN HADIS:

Sungguh menakjubkan (hebat) urusan orang yang beriman; Sesungguhnya semua urusannya adalah baik belaka; Tidak seorangpun yang memiliki sifat itu kecuali orang yang beriman (iaitu) sekiranya dia mendapat kesenangan dia bersyukur, dan (sikap) demikian itu baik baginya; Dan sekiranya dia ditimpa musibah (bencana) dia dapat bersabar, dan (sikap) demikian itu juga baik baginya.

(Hadis Sahih Riwayat Imam Muslim)

Chartered Accountant??

Just come back from KL..

I attended the briefing regarding the reskilling towards Chartered Accountancy programme

for IT/IS graduates in KLCC last wednesday.This is the 2nd time the invitation came..

the first time was in August..which i couldn't make it. Got tangled with several occasions back home.

Well the program did sound interesting..A career as a Chartered Accountant. hmm..

Definitely different from the IT degree but somehow it is still very much relevant.

futhermore i took Corporate management as minor for the degree so personally i really like the programme.

But i'm not into making any decision just yet..still weighing pros and cons.

Many things need to be considered. Hey.. I still got a few days till the end of the year, didn't I?

Join the Programme..Why?

- still jobless..Don't waste time

- PETRONAS support

- New skills

- Interest in IT..decreasing..

Don't join...Why?

- It is tough

- Wasting your degree

- need determination n hard work..

Am I up to the challenge?? Well...can't tell ..

If any of you guys reading this posting..and

thinking there's anything to be added to my 'Why' list above..

Please do so at comments..

Maybe it will help on the decision that i'm going to make..
