4D3N Chiang Mai trip :)

السلام عليكم Below is the itinerary for our 4D3N Muslim family trip to Chiang Mai last May 2016. We had a private local driver/tour gu...

31 October 2011

Why oh why?

السلام عليكم

In the name of Allah the Most Beneficent and Most Merciful :)

How are you my fellow readers and dear friends? Having a nice day? Or a gloomy glee day? Or fretful feverish forehead-day? Or a lonely-gingerly-walking-down-the-cobbled-street day? Or it is a romantic, heart melt, heart-skip-a-beat day? Or a calm, peaceful still river that runs smoothly after an angry hurricane day? Or even a sun-is-rising-on-the-east normal day?

Why oh why?
Why, oh why? Why?
Why, why oh?
Oh, why?

I can't answer why. But I do know that I am currently in that that why-do-I-have-to-feel-like-it day. I don't like how I am feeling at this moment. I don't know how to put the feelings into words. It's not the ordinary HAPPY, SAD, MAD, DISAPPOINTED, AWE, SCARED, ANXIOUS, JEALOUS, JOYFUL, and etc. feeling.
Emotion + Icons + Emoticons 

I describe my feelings more like a chocolate chip dough-mixture of indulging a triple scoop of a honey-and-vanilla ice cream on a warm sunny evening facing the wide open crystal blue sea and accidentally broke your favourite crystal ballerina, dancing in music box bought by someone special from a trip through the seven seas. 

Vanilla Ice Cream with a Glare of Golden Honey  :)

Sigh. It is a sigh of relief. Sigh of sympathy. Sympathy for myself. 

Deep breath. Inhale the clear, invisible air as given by the All Mighty. Being grateful. Being (or maybe trying HARD) to be optimistic, thinking about confronting complexities.




Okayyy. STOP IT! Enough is enough honey darling. 

Pardon me for being such a Drama Queen. But I prefer Drama Princess instead. Takde la over sangat kan? Heh.

Tetiba macam in the mood to write the writer style.hehe You know, the long, trailing, elaborating, compact  with adjectives sentence.

But yeah. About the feelings thing, it's true. Just need to expel it out from my mind, in high hopes that in won't  try to invade me and export me to the gray land of sorrow.

Why oh why ko ni tetiba nak berjiwang-jiwang, berfeeling-feeling ni?

I think it was from the past days I had encounter series that Allah had made me thinking.

Us, humans are so unique that Allah had gave us the gift of feelings. With that I felt that I am so blessed that I was bestowed upon Him to be a human with feelings. Thank you Allah :')

Feelings can destroy you into tiny bits. However, if used properly and handled with care, it can help to build a better you. 

YOU DECIDE! 


I just got the urge to cook for tonight's dinner. Cooking helps me to let go my unwanted feelings. I sometimes just cook using the recipes written within me. I just got to let go of this feelings inside me. Chef's selection for tonight is Hot and Spicy Tom Yam Chicken with Sliced Sour Mango; deliciouuus! :D

Added Cili Padi, Cili Kering, Halia, Serai suggesting the Ayam Masak Tom Yam to be SANGAT pedas till we sweat! The lauk ended up being very flavourful, sweet and spicy and juicy Ayam Masak Tom Yam. 

Pelik. I thought it will be Pedas! Panas! Membara! Meleleh! Tapi tak. Rasanya sedap, manis ayam terasa, masam-masam mangga muda, pedas-pedas cabai hijau. It just happened to me that how hard things was, sometimes we exaggerated, sometimes it was not as bad as it would be. Rupa-rupanya apa yang kita rasa itu ada manisnya. 

Sorry if this post macam berfalsafah dan ayat mudah di panjang jelakan. If it is too hard to understand what I typed, just let it be. Jangan susahkan diri. Ada banyak lagi benda penting kita perlu fokuskan, kan? :)

I just wanna wrap up my October
by wishing a jolly birthday to 
the October birthday babies;
Mussadiq Adam (10/10)
Meor Qabil (11/10)
Haziq Asyraf (13/10)
KHALIDA HUSSIN (15/10)
Nur Atikah Azhar (22/10)
Aini Afifah (26/10)
Lisya
Izzat
and to all the unlisted October friends;
May Allah bless you with
 all the goodness here and thereafter.
Aminn.

Urut.

السلام عليكم

Before I bring you into the story of URUT, I'm gonna tell you about this;

You may or may not know, (I think most of you guys do not know) that in UIAM was held Debat Piala Perdana Menteri. Obviously, I didn't compete. So much for Hanie nak join debate. Pfft! Say buhbye to debate Honey! (You didn't say a proper Hi!to debate pon, so be it)

The point is, I didn't even have the time to watch it, even though it was held a few steps away from my office. (cehh! my office gitu.muahaha) BUT, I did manage to attend the closing ceremony. Sadly, (I think many are dissapointed) the PM couldn't  make it. He got to be in Saudi unexpectedly. Nevertheless, the well-like Dato' Hishamuddin was there to represent PM.

The final round was USIM against UiTM. USIM won. I didn't watch the debate pon. Someone told me the result. I just went there for awhile. Got to sing the IIUM song. Secretly, I think the song was awesome. Best kott. Bersemangat aku nyanyi.hehee :D

BTW, among the guests attended were Vanida Imran and her suave husband Rashidi Ishak. They were like cincin dengan permata. Puuurfect for each other. God, she was pretttty :)

She was right in front of me O.O Phone on my hand, but this mouth just was to heavy to say, "Can I have a picture with you so that I can post it on my blog and Facebook??" -.-'

So, no picture. No. No. No. Sigh.

Ohh, yeah. Yesterday I had a massage. I think since last year I always had this stomach ache which I thought due to gastric and angin. I also always had this back pain. Aku rasa macam nenek yang dah tua bamgka =________= It may due to the fact that I'm stress. When people are stressed out, they will have this painful ache on the shoulders right? Yeah, maybe I was stressed out. With SPM and my obligation on top. It was hard, but no one ever tell me it's gonna be easy. And the consequences; terrible stomach ache and back pain.

Once I had this terrible angin, and my Mama suggested to go to a nearby spa. It was a desperate call. It was so hard to find a good tukang urut. I will not say that the spa massage was great, but at least I was burping and felt a bit relieved. 

Well, yesterday was my second time urut. It was by our Mak Tok's maid, Kak Ida. Before this, we didn't know that she knows how to urut (and very good too). She told us that she was somehow gifted. Her grandma also knows how to massage and 'playing' with the urat.

Haaaa, Kak Ida urut memang sedap. Tapi, SAKITTT! *taking a deep breathh. Sakit gle la. Serious. Rasa nak nangis pon ada. Fuhh! Dye rase macam pisau belah daging th. Sakit wehh. Tak taw nak cakap macam mana dah. Sakittt.huhuu

When I go shopping for instance, I will come back home with a small 20 sen bruise on my knee. Well, I thought it was something wrong with how I walk or something. Then, when Kak Ida massaged my legs, Maaa SAKETTT! When she pressed that particular part. Fuhhh! Indescribably pain. Maybe I got this urat twisted up and lead to a somehow block vein. And that's why there are bruise. Just a theory. But I'm really sure that that it is not some 'creature' bite, okay?

The thing is it is still painful until this instant. I actually felt like orang dalam pantang. I can't walk fast. Even when performing solat, especially ruku' it was painful. Rasa macam baru lepas kena tumbuk, hit right in the stomach! 

I'm afraid that I might terrified you with the plenty words of SAKET and PAIN. The same theory goes like it had been  a long time that you last had your jog, and suddenly you have to sprint run. My muscle was shock when it got the massage. Kak Ida was all sweaty after massaging me. Can't wait for my next massage next month. Weeee~ I just hope that I will NOT suffer the angin anymore and please, oh please make this temporary pain go away a bit faster. Kak Ida said that I should eat pain killer. Knowing Hanie, takkan la nak makan ubat kan? So, tahan je la.haha :D

Okay, okay. Some may be uncomfortable when the subject urut is brought up. Please don't be so shallow minded and say that urut is something so sensual or something. Urut is very good for your health actually. It helps to improve our blood circulation. And, if you have a good circulation, everything will be better eventually, InsyaAllah. Just nowadays, a good tukang urut is quite hard to find.

I hope
 this will be something new for you peeps.
My experience of being urut.haha
Lead a healthy life people!
We're 'borrowing' this body.
We must return it in 
a good condition right?
Wassalam :)

Real Steel and Real Steal.

السلام عليكم

Alhamdulillah, I got a free weekend. Whatsapp-ed with Yaya and she asked me out for a date at KLCC. Since no one was free to join, it was only two of us.

We watched REAL STEEL and it was excellent! Splendid! Smashing! I give 12/10. When the movie ended, it was cascade of compliments from the viewers. Everybody love it! Everyone should go and watch it. Next movie in my list will be IN TIME bebeh! Featuring the hott Justin Timberlake :O

Later, we went for our lunch. We went into a lift. Then, Yaya nudged me. It was the famous Khatijah Tan and her son, no other than the PIERRE ANDRE! *Gasps! *Breath in, breath out!

We were spent 35 seconds in the lift from Concourse to level 2 with Pierre Andre!!! Sumpah thrill! Too bad we don't have a photo to prove it. We were too dumbstruck to ask for a picture with him. Sigh.

After we went out the lift, we RAN and SCREAM like a mad woman, THRILLED! Muahahahahahhaha :D

Serious menyesal tak amek gamba. Even while were savouring our scrumptious spaghetti, we were still in regret for not taking the picture.

So, we took our own picha.haahha


Darling Yaya.


Later, while searching for Yaya's bag and my shoe, we still keep our eyes sharp and wide for the sight of Pierre. No sign of him. Sigh.

We went into Roxy and Quicksilver's. "Haaaniee..." someone called for me. "Eh, Shahin!" Shahin is my classmate in CFS, also taking Medic, InsyaAllah. Both of us are in the same Nature club. You might notice him from a picture when I went to the tree planting.hehe

I was seriously surprised that he worked during the semester break. "Shahin, ko keje untuk ape? Blackberry dah ade. Macbook dah ade? Nak duit untuk ape lagi?" "Aku nak bagi parents aku sikit." Pehhh! Anak mithali gitu.huhuu 

By the way, kerja kat Quicksilver satu hari RM 6. Banyak th. Shahin kerja everyday kott. Kaya sehh. Memang sesuai pon dye kerja kat situ. Memang mamat th stylo pon. Selalu jealous tengok dye pakai beg SEED gi klas kat CFS ;)

That's Shahin.

So, then we continue our search in Suria KLCC; my so-called 'playground'. Yaya found a really nice VINCCI brown bag for CFS next year and decided to buy it. 
Then, "Hanie, mane phone Yaya?"
WHATT??! Yaya's Blackberry went missing!!! 
She said that her bag wasn't properly closed when she was about to pay for the bag.

We searched the whole store, negative. Went back to Isetan, negative. Called tens times. Nobody answered. We made a report at the customer service. No luck. There was nothing much that they could help. 

Yaya cried. It was the second time that she lost her phone. (In my mind: Mama baru cakap suruh hati-hati sebelum hantar kat stesyen LRT.)

So, our day ended in sorrow. It's OK Yaya. Everything happens for a reason. Pity her :(

For dinner, our family went out to MEE UDANG MAK JAH which is located behind Wangsa Walk Mall. Delicious, suitable for the prawn's addict out there. Yummy!

Nasi Goreng Udang in a boat :) SE7EN prawns per servingg!

Mimpi Mewah :D

السلام عليكم

Ohh, seronoknyaaa!
Huhuhu. Aku dapat kereta! Ada orang bagi! Percuma! Free of charge! Untung la kau Hanie. Kereta apa?! Kereta ni haa, tengoklah;

Peugeot 308 WHITE!
Wee, sumpah best gle! XD

Tapi tak ingat siapa yang bagi =___________=


Dua malam lepas, saya baru sahaja pulang dari Paris. Dengan gembira mengambil banyak keping foto sebagai tatapan pada masa akan datang. Gambar saya berlatarbelakangkan Menara Eiffel menjadi foto utama di laman Facebook.

Saya telah pergi ke sebuah kedai milik rakyat Malaysia berhampiran dengan Menara Eiffel itu. Harga kek cawan itu RM 4.20. Ohh, nasib baik saya ada duit Malaysia. Tatkala hendak membayar, dia minta duit Euro pula. APAKAH? Duit Euro saya dalam tas tangan tiba-tiba lesap semuanya -.-'


















*Perkara ini ialah mimpi semata-mata. Harap maklum.

Mimpi ialah 
suatu kejadian yang sukar ditafsirkan.
Mungkinkah ini
 menerangkan sesuatu yang bakal berlaku?
OK gak kalau betul-betul jadi.hehe
Wassalam :)

Kedai 1Malaysia.

السلام عليكم

Salam 1Malaysia!

Buat pengetahuan anda semua, terdapat satu kedai 1Malaysia di kawasan Wangsa Maju. Mama saya terbaca di dada akhbar tentangnya. Terlintas di fikiran, di manakan kedai itu?

Ketika dalam perjalanan ke Pusat Membeli-belah Wangsa Walk, kami terjumpa kedai tersebut. Rupa-rupanya belakang rumah saja, di belakang taman permainan, seberang jalan. Aiman dan Nadia tentu tahu di mana. Dulu, tapak kedai itu ialah tapak pasar basah yang sering dikunjungi bibik. Kini, bertukar wajah dengan bangunan konkrit putih dan lengkap dengan alat penghawa dingin.

Kedai Rakyat 1Malaysia :)
Barangan yang dijual terdiri daripada barang dapur yang kering. Mereka tidak menjual sayur, ikan, ayam atau daging. Hanya sekadar keperluan harian biasa seperti susu, roti, telur, biskut, minuman malt bercoklat, beras, minuman berperisa, lampin pakai buang bayi dan banyak lagi.

Susu

Minuman berkarbonat

Beras

Rempah-ratus

90% barangan yang dijual berjenama 1Malaysia. Harganya tidaklah tersangat murah. Tapi lebih murah daripada barangan jenama terkemuka yang lain. Di sini lah rakyat dapat sedikit sebanyak mengurangkan beban perbelanjaan dapur mereka. 

Meskipun harga barangan di sini lebih murah, para pengguna haruslah bijak berbelanja. Jika barang murah saja, tetapi berbelanja berlebihan dan membazir, apa gunanya kan? ;)

Perbuatan 
dahulu buah dari bunga 
ketika berbelanja 
harus dielakkan.

Double O.

السلام عليكم

Both fOOd and bOOks are my ultimate passion. Great fOOd and great bOOks are my best weekend.

Just to get things straight. You may know that I am currently working right? Where? How? When? What? Really?

Yup, really. I am a part timer at Alumni and Career Services Division, IIUM Gombak. I went there by a car drove by either Mom or my Dad. That's mean my travelling cost to the office is FREE. I even have lunch with my parents; FOC. I work from Monday to Friday (maybe in weekends if needed) from 8.00 AM to 5.00 PM. But I always enters the office at 8.30 AM after having a breakfast with my parents, and will be back around 5.30 PM.

Let's get to the fOOd part. That Saturday, the Alumni Relations Section had organized a half day forum. That was I had been doing. Calling up the prominent Alumni to confirm their attendance. About 35 alumni confirmed but only 20 people came.

FOOd for 100 people was ordered. Extra fOOd are to be shared. It was our rezeki  to bring the fOOd back home.

Menu:

Beakfast, 
  • Soto Nasi Impit  
  • Cekodok Jagung
  • Kuih lapis 

Carrot Cupcake, Cheese Cream

Tea break, 
  • Tuna pastries 
  • Chicken Sandwich with Mayonise and garden salads #Myfav
  • Carrot cupcakes with chunky Walnuts and Cheese Cream #Myfav
  • Mouth-watering crunchy and chewy Chocolate Chips Cookies #Myfav *I really wish I can make Choc Chip Cookies as good as theirs :)


Lunch,
  • Special rice; decorated with fried onions, shredded omelette and promegranate seeds (biji buah delima)
  • Chicken Masala
  • Beef
  • Vegetables Dalca
  • Acar Buah
  • Fruits; watermelon, honey dew and mango
  • Star of the day: KAMBING GOLEK stuffed with Rice. #Myfav
Memang tergolek-golek la kami semua makan kambing. Best wehh. Selalunya seekor kambing tumbang untuk satu kenduri. Ni seekor just for 30 of us including the organizer. Nikmat. Rezeki. Alhamdulillah. Siap dapat bungkus lauk dan kambing bawak balek rumah lagi. Wahahaa. Gumbiraa!

Big bad wolfff!!!
Later that evening, my parents and I headed to MAEPS, Serdang to the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale. WOW! There were numerous people there. Don't let me start about the bOOks. They were DAMN CHEAP!!!! Most of the bOOks are like RM 8 to RM 10. Original price can be around RM 30 to RM 70. I don't know how explain how cheap they are, but trust me, they were DAMN CHEAP! And, it is not second hand bOOks. You're gonna be their proud first hand owner ;)

Before I went there, I made a list of the books I wanted to buy. Basically, I buy books according to the writer. My favourite writer would be Mitch Albom, Nicholas Sparks and Dan Brown. Just noticed that my favourite writer are guys.haha

It was devastating. I couldn't find their books :'( I've search the hall twice! There was only one Mitch Albom's For One More Day that I had read before :/ I really aimed to get Dan Brown's at a low price. Nowhere in sight. Sigh. 

Nevertheless, I did bought 14 BOOKS!!! No more buying books for two years. *But I doubt that.hehe 

I ended up buying books by random writers and based title and synopsis that captured my attention;


  1. A Time To Learn, Nora Naish.
  2. Genuine Lies, Nora Roberts.
  3. Maggie's Tree, Julia Walters.
  4. Naomi, Douglas Clegg.
  5. Night Smoke, Nora Roberts.
  6. Not A Penny More, Not A Penny Less & Honour Among Thieves, Jefferey Archer.
  7. Plotting For Beginners, Sue Hepworth & Jane Linfoot.
  8. The Good Thief, Hannah Tinti.
  9. The Right Path, Nora Roberts.
  10. To Room Nineteen, Doris Lessing.
  11. Twelve Room with A View, Theresa Rebeck.
  12. Three Times A Lady & It Had To Be You, Sarah Webb.
  13. Under This Broken Sky, Shandi Mitchell.
  14. White Oleander, Janet Fitch.
This will be an enjoyable ride, reading the bOOks. Hope I'll learn something from each of bOOks. 


Be patient and be tough; 
someday this pain will be useful to you.

27th IIUM Convocation Ceremony.

السلام عليكم

So people, how are you today? I am glad that my laptop is functioning, and I am given the time and opportunity write about my valuable experience, Alhamdulillah. Hopefully it can be a guidance for you and inspire you to become a greater person, InsyaAllah.


As promised, I am going to post about the IIUM Convocation that I had attended last week. The ceremony was held for 3 days; Saturday, Sunday and Monday. There was 5 sessions. You might wonder how did I got to attend it right? 

1. I was on duty. I had to arrange the 'Reach' magazine (Alumni's) on the graduands' seats. 
2. My Mom is one of the committee for the event. I'm helping her out. I got to witness what happened behind the scene, got a back stage tour and been behind the counter.

Mama with Aunty Nora :)

Lots of things happened. I'll sort it out according to days keyh?


8th October 2011

My first panorama when I arrived at the campus was students busy wearing their turquoise robe. Beside them were their proud parents and siblings and loved ones :')

For the first session, it was the ALLIED HEALTH SCIENCES, NURSING, PHARMACY and MEDICINE (yeaaayyyy!!!) For IIUM students, you may not know; even though you're/you'll be studying in Kuantan Campus, You still be graduating in Gombak Campus :)

The graduands are required to queue in lines before getting in to the CAC's hall (Cultural Activity Centre, CAC). There are officers checking their attendance and their appearance. The Sisters need to wear dark coloured shoes, complete with socks, and also cream tudung

There was an Operating Room (OR). There, the officers will be taking care of the graduands. They have ALL; black shoes-for who didn't wear dark shoes, cream tudung-for who didn't wear cream tudung. They even have Milo, Dutch Lady's Strawberry Milk, mineral water, Jacob's crackers, pins and even Kotex for whoever needs them. No joke. 

Also in the OR, the guys with the long hair will get a FREE trim. If their hair touches the collar, your out man. Out of the line to get a trim. I was there; witnessing four guys having the hair cut by a lady officer. One of an Engineering Master graduand was shaking his head with regret: "Kenapa lah aku tak stop kat kedai mamak potong rambut semalam -_______-"

Waitttt! How did I know he was an Engineering Master graduand? Actually, if you see IIUM's robe carefully, you can see the difference. The graduands will wear different coloured hood indicating their courses. Eg. Engineering-Maroon, Econs-Yellow, Sciences-Green, Law-Black, MEDIC-PINKKK!!! :D Next, try eyeing their sleeves. For degree graduands, one strip. Master, two strips. PhD, 3 strips. And if you see one strip but very wide, it's for the academician. 

Robe room

Pinky hoody
I was so proud. I was prouder to spy on the graduands with pink hoods. In my mind, they are sooo terer! Hebat! Wonderful! Amazing! 

After the first session ended, my Mom brought me to the Robe room. There, I saw a familiar face. It was Hazim! Someone from KYS whom I know during our forum back in STF. He's now in KYUEM. 

"Eh, Hi!!! Hazim kan?"
"Hi!!! A'ah. Aina Farhana Hamdi kan?"
*Aina, if you're reading this. Name ak ngan ko sgt commercial. HAHAHAHA.

Nevertheless, he was with his older brother who is  MEDICAL STUDENTS!!! Tabik spring  was what he got from me there and then. He was the first IIUM Doc I met. Boy, I was excited.  So, my first question to him was, "Best tak duduk Kuantan?". "Tak sebest duduk kat Gombak la".  That was one of the reason I don't want to do Medic in UIA, sebab kena gi Kuantan. Pffft! Childish reason la Hanie -.-' 

I even told my Mom. "Ma, kalau Hanie malas gi Kuantan, Hanie amek Engin kat Gombak je la eh? Hehehe". Dasar anak manjaa. Hanie, study kat Ireland yang beribu batu dan berjam-jam flight th ko nak. Yang Kuantan 2 jam driving from KL tak nak plak. I took a deep breath, try to think clearly. I made a comparison; hood pink ke hood maroon lagi cantek? Obviously hood pink lagi cantek. Bole la. Bole la. Medic kat Kuantan la.

Yours truly, going to Kuantan 2013 :D

This is out of the topic. A few night ago, Atikah called and we chatted, discussing about going to Kuantan. And the result is *drumrolls :YEAH! It is OK to stay at Kuantan. We're gonna spend our time in the Eastern Malaysia. Jalan-jalan (maybe cari makan also) kat pantai timur. Heading to Ganu and Klate. Siap la korang semua. Aku belajar kecek klate! :D

That is why I was very glad that I had actually went to this Convo. At least I've met Hazim's bro, Hafiz. He also spend 2 years at CFS and 5 years at Kuantan campus; rileks saja. Dah grad dah pon kan? If he can do it. Why can't I?

And the second session started around two o'clock. After the scroll presentation ceremony ended, special awards were given to the achievers. Among the award achievers, a person will be selected to represent the all graduands and to give a speech, Valedictorian speech. My Mom always told me. She always cried when hearing this speech (In the speech they say things that made my Mom cried). I was there to hear the speech, for the first time. I missed the first session one. He was from the Kulliyah of Sciences. He was thanking his batch, lecturers, parents, wife and kids. He's married! WOW! The wife even wears purdah! WOW! WOW! His kids are adorable :D

Furthermore, the Valedictorian speech is in 3 languages; English, Malay and Arabic. Kalau tak payah in Arabic, teringin la jugak bagi speech. Cehhh! Berangan.hahha


9th October 2011

I really observed what's happening around me. Meticulous preparations are needed in order for everything to run well. 






I was in the OR a few minutes before the students were ushered to their seats. There, they busily redressing  themselves. Conquering the room was obviously the girls ;) It is always a pleasure to have some extra hand. I studied how the officers help the students to wear their robes. Then, applying the techniques of wearing the robes to the sisters. Yup, you need a special skill to wear the robes.hehe At least later on I know how to wear my own robe *wink! wink!

SIAPA CAKAP BUDAK UIA tak hensem? Dulu bukan main cemburu dengan Nadzira sebab dia mengatakan bahawa senior KMB kacak-kacak. Seriously, during the convo, BELAMBAK beb! Kalau kat CFS maybe tak nampak sangat sebab muka budak baru habes SPM. Kat Convo, haih. Puas cuci mata.hahaha Tak cari pon. Pusing kanan nampak. Pusing kiri nampak. Paling semat kalau pakai baju Melayu hitam dengan sampin emas; WAHHH! Alhamdulillah, MashaAllah. Kalau gurls, baju macam baju pengantin. Baju lace lawa-lawa XD

In the fourth session, I was watching the screens, seeing the names, then I saw a name berbintikan SANUDIN. Eh, macam nama ayah Aiman la. 

After everything ended, went home. Stop by at 7-Eleven nearby. I know that guy. Tuk! Tuk! I knock the glass door. Halooo! It was Aiman. He was buying some Toblerone and other stuffs. We chatted. He just went back from SESERI, drove alone. Pastu berlagak ngan aku hari th dye drive gi KTJ. Hah! Aku drive gi Perak. Lagi jauh. Pastu tak puas hati. Alah, ko dapat lesen awal. Tak puas hati gak. Sape suruh fail parking?hahahah Aiman, I was only joking. LOL. Glad to see you then. Lain kali belanja aku satu Toblerone gak taw.

That's not the main thing. The thing is, Aiman told me his sis (KAED) was graduating that day. "Eh, aku gi convo Kakak ko kot!" Patutlah ada ayah Aiman, Sanudin :)

Ohh, yeah. I even met CIKGU JAMILAH, our dear Physics teacher :') " Assalamualaikum Cikgu. Cikgu ingat saya lagi tak?" "Mestilah cikgu ingat" Wahahahaa. Thrilled. Rindu gle cikgu. And menantu cikgu yang grad ;)


10th October 2011

Last day. Fuhh. By that time, dah puas gi convo. But, I was never in the Hall at the beginning of the ceremony. I was always outside doing something else. That's it, I told myself. I need to see the whole ceremony, from beginning to the end.

Perarakan masuk


So, I got to see the conveyances of student inside. When they're on stage, they will give a smart card to the officers on stage. The officer will touch the card on a small machine. The students' name will be announced and their name will appear on screen. That's why the timing is so precise. However, as a machine made by imperfect man, there's always some defects.

Feeling bored, I flip on the Convo book. Among the award achiever, I saw a familiar name; Meor Alif. He's actually one of SSP's debate coach. I thought he was in London doing his Masters. But, this was actually the real Meor Alif. There was no Meor Alif in London. He went back to get his scroll and special award. He was right in front of me, two rows ahead. I really, really wanted to meet him and say, "I know you, but you don't know me". That sounds spooky kan?hehee He's a very successful student, doing HS (Political Science).  I didn't got to meet him. Maybe next time, whenever it will be.

I also saw Nik Ariff Fahmi, our Environmental and Nature Club president in CFS on screen. He wasn't taking his scroll, but was there as a guest. Maybe his bro/sis graduating. 


Well, well, isn't this a lengthy post. Balas dendam slalu tak sempat nak update. 

THIS 27th convo, I saw three persons whom I know graduating; Abang Fadhil, Abang Syukur and Kak Arina. And maybe another three will be Hazim's bro, Aiman's sis and Meor Alif.heh

Eagerly waiting for 34th or 35th Convocation Ceremony. Hopefully I'll be graduating with flying colours. And maybe, JUST maybe I'll be reading out the Valedictorian speech. That's really a superior aim that might be quite impossible but possible to achieve. But who knows right?

Success will run after you"

Dato'

  السلام عليكم

Ya, mungkin ada tercetus di fikiran anda yang saya skandal dengan Dato' mana-mana. Ohh tidak.. Belum tiba masanya.heheh XD 

Seperti yang anda semua sedia maklum, saya sedang bekerja part-time di pejabat. Tugas saya memerlukan saya untuk membuat panggilan untuk mengesahkan kehadiran ahli-ahli alumni yang terpilih untuk menyertai program pada sabtu ini.

Saya merasa bangga kerana institusi ini telah berjaya melahirkan alumni yang berjaya dan berprofil tinggi. Saya amat beruntung kerana diberi peluang untuk menelefon mereka.

Mula-mula memang ada rasa gerun. Mana tidaknya, saya bakal bercakap dengan Dato'-dato' dan orang-orang besar. Tentu mereka ini sombong orangnya kan? TIDAK! Tidak sama sekali. Malah, mereka sangat merendah diri dan sopan. You expect them to be so highty-mighty and rude. No, they weren't!

Terkejut, memang terkejut :O 

Itu sebenarnya yang kita mahu. Biarlah berpangkat besar, tetapi merendah diri. Ikut resmi padi, semakin berisi, semakin tunduk. Cewahh ;P

Sememangnya ini ialah satu pengalaman baru. Persekitaran saya yang baru ini juga memainkan peranan penting. Kita harus bijak menilai dan membuat perbandingan. 

Sabtu ini, saya bertugas lagi. Selepas itu mungkin ke Pesta buku: Big Bad Wolf Book Sale. Saya hendak borong buku!!! Mereka menjual buku-buku dengan harga yang AMAT MURAH; potongan hingga 70%. Peluang yang tidak harus disia-siakan (^.^)

Hari minggu saya baru-baru ini telah diisi dengan menghadiri Majlis Konvokesyen di UIAM. Saya akan pos entri tentangnya selepas ini. InsyaAllah. Banyak untuk saya kongsikan bersama ;)

Allah knows the BEST!

Bajet.

 السلام عليكم

Pada hari ini, Perdana Menteri Malaysia akan mengishtiharkan bajet 2012. Pengumuman ini amat ditunggu-tunggu. Sebelum ini, apa saya kesah bajet itu macam mana. Janji saya belajar, skor dalam peperiksaan sudah. Tidak payah pening-pening kepala. Pening kena belajar sajalah.

Namun, sebenarnya bajet negara memainkan peranan yang amat penting. Kita dapat tahu harga barang naik atau tidak (agak mustahil untuk turun :P), sektor apakah yang akan lebih diberi bantuan kewangan dan sebagainya. Mungkin juga dapat tahu jika cukai 6% prabayar akan naik atau tidak.

Setelah memasuki alam universiti, saya lebih berhati-hati dalam berbelanja. Bukan wang yang diberi tidak mencukupi, tetapi takut wang dalam akaun itu habis. Oleh itu, sarapan minum  secawan Milo. Tengah hari makan nasi berlauk tempe saja lah. Satu bungkus lebih kurang RM 1.80-RM 2.00. Malam, bihun sup RM 2.50. Satu hari saya memperuntukan hanya lebih kurang RM 5, walhal pelajar lain membelanjakan  lebih kurang RM 10 sehari. Banyak bezanya.

Hal ini mungkin terjadi kerana di sekolah berasrama dulu, semua makanan  disediakan. Dompet tidak pernah disentuh untuk mengeluarkan duit. Jika perlu pun, hanya untuk membayar yuran-yuran kelab dan langganan surat khabar dan majalah ilmiah. 

Makan pun 5 kali sehari. Tidak cukup boleh minta tambah. Mengendeng dekat mak cik DM atau suruh saja Pengawas yang bertugas carikan lauk extra. Tom yam ke, ayam goreng ke, kacang tempe ke, buah tembikai ke. Kalau makan lewat malam (supper), mungkin ramai saja yang malas ke Dewan Makan. Rezeki kami. Sedulang nuget di bawa pulang ke hostel. 

Makan 5 kali sehari pun boleh lapar. Ish, ish, ish. Baru sekarang rasa bersyukur.

Hmm, seronok juga menaip dalam bahasa Melayu. Lama juga rasanya saya tidak mengarang karangan BM; ayat skema XD 
Hendak tahu sesuatu? Antara koleksi buku yang saya bawa ke CFS, UIAM ialah buku peribahasa, kamus bahasa Inggeris, dan 'Thesaurus'. Rakan-rakan gelakkan saya pabila saya mempamerkan buku-buku itu di rak. 

"Hanie, kenapa you bawak buku peribahasa gi UIA?" 
"Laa, nape? Tak bleh ke?" 
"Hanie dear, kte tak blaja BM kat UIA." 
" Ohh, yke? =____='"

Hahahaa. Itu sangat memalukan. 

Saya suka belajar bahasa. Saya rindu kelas dengan Umi Sal. Beliaulah yang menolong kami untuk mengukuhkan tatabahasa kami. Jangan pandang rendah terhadap bahasa Melayu. Sungguh indah bila mempelajarinya.

Mungkin anda beranggapan: 
"Alah Hanie th berpendidikan Inggeris. Cakap English macam budak A-Level.  Tengok blog dye th. Asek-asek in English. Cakap BM pon ade slang Mat Saleh." *Keliru ini mengutuk atau memuji.heheh*

Ya. Ya. Saya akui. Entri blog saya selalu dalam bahasa Inggeris. Malah, saya telah mencabar diri saya untuk menulis entri dalam bahasa Inggeris yang lengkap. Alhamdulillah, saya telah berjaya mencipta rekod saya sendiri. Saya juga akui bahawa saya lebih suka membaca buku cerita Inggeris sebagai bacaan ringan dan membaca kamus bahasa Inggeris :P 

Tidak semestinya
orang yang belajar bahasa asing 
dan mengaplikasikannya dalam
kehidupan seharian tidak 
mempunyai patriotisme dalam diri 
kan?
Wassalam :)
