end of march

salam.

end of march.. kejap je, ek..

it was a tiring month for me, since football under 15 and under 18 tournaments both took place in this month. I put aside plenty of hours to be with the players during the training session, but only the under 15 managed to get into the semi.. the under 18 terkulai sebelum berkembang.. di kenang2kan, macam sia2 je berlatih dengan budak2 tu time cuti sekolah setiap pagi dan minggu lepas setiap petang. tapi tu la Dia, layankan je..

as for the spm result, specifically English, it surpassed the target set for the overall percentage as well as excellence achievement. not only English, the other subjects also showed vast improvement, which made everyone saying that this was ‘election feel good’ result.

abil @ angah was sick again, down with fever this whole week, and made him missed school again.. the doctor said that it’s normal fever, and I hoped so too. anyway he’s ok now, except for runny nose je..

iliya @ kak long came out top in her form three test. she managed to get straight A’s, and it’s her first time being in that position. I feel really proud of her. hopefully she can maintain her performance until year end when she sits for her pmr.

school chores, as usual, are making my hands full. this coming week I have to train the debaters coz the inter school debate is on Saturday. the students lack the language practice actually, and this affects their presentation; fluency, pronunciation, word choice, language style. all these stuffs can’t be learned over night, so I just have to keep my fingers crossed and hope that the debaters will do their best in absorbing new knowledge and facts within a very short period.

next weekend I plan to go back to pj.. monthly ritual, if I may say so.. to see my parents and siblings, and old friends too. to spend time with them. to get away from the usual routine for a couple of days. I miss them, to be honest, but commitments, responsibilities, and other worldly affairs, do not permit me to do things as I wish. but I’m grateful for every little thing that come into my life.. simply put, layan….

life is short.

live it up.

make it extraordinary.

live it to the fullest.

ciao!

laut juga ketemu sudahnya..

dan semua sungai-sungai itu, baik di mana saja ia berada, di Malaysia, di Afrika, di Amerika, di China, di Antartika, di mana saja, tetap mengalir ke laut.

lantas, apa di pedulikan sungai mana yang ingin di ikuti? kerna hakikatnya laut juga ketemu sudahnya..

haiku & limerick

salam.

hari ni budak2 kt sekolah ujian. biasa le, sebelum exam tengah tahun, mesti nak ada ujian dulu. hari ni dan esuk ujiannya, kiranya boleh bawak bertenang le kejap.. tak payah ngajo, kan..

jadi, hari ni gua kena invigilate dua kelas je, satu form three dan satu lagi form five. kalau time2 gini, untuk mengisi masa sambil nunggu puak2 ni habis menjawab, gua biasanya membaca atau menulis.. masa jaga form three, gua siapkan buku rekod dan update apa2 yang patut sebelum gua mengulang baca kitab sunan kalijaga. memang nak kena layan berkali2 jugak la, sementara nak resap pahamnya..

lepas break, last slot, gua jaga form five. asal2nya gua nak membaca jugak tapi last2 gua dh menulis haiku dan limerick. lu tau ke, amende haiku dan limerick ni? ia adalah puisi, haiku puisi jepun yang hanya mengandungi tiga baris, dan kebiasaannya baris pertama dan ketiga mengandungi 5 sukukata dan baris kedua 7 sukukata. biasanya takde makna khusus pun... limerick pulak puisi Irish. terdiri dari lima baris, baris pertama, kedua dan kelima mesti rhyme, ketiga dan keempat mesti rhyme jugak, dan puisinya selalu berunsur humour.. biasanya la.. jadi, kt bawah ni gua share dengan lu haiku dan limerick yang gua karang tengahari tadi.. layan….

‘Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajiun’

Salam.

‘Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajiun’

Kita berasal dari Allah dan kita kembali pada Nya.

Perhatikan kalimat yang menyatakan ‘kembali pada Nya’.

Perjalanan kita sebenarnya berakhir pada Dia. Bukan berujung pada syurga atau neraka, melainkan pada Nya. Syurga atau neraka hanyalah terminal sementara. Keduanya dicantumkan dalam kitab suci untuk memberikan motivasi bagi manusia agar dapat kembali pada Nya. Dengan bayangan syurga dan ancaman neraka, menusia akan berusaha menyucikan hidupnya. Agar mampu kembali kepada Yang Mahasuci.

happy birthday bak & mak!

To My Children

when I spill some food on my nice clean dress,

or maybe forget to tie my shoe,

please be patient and perhaps reminisce,

about the many hours I spent with you.

when I taught you how to eat with care,

plus tying laces and your numbers, too,

dressing yourself and combing your hair,

those were precious hours spent with you.

so when I forget what I was about to say,

just give me a minute – or two,

it probably wasn’t important anyway,

and I would much rather listen to you.

if I tell the story one more time,

and you know the ending through and through,

please remember your first nursery rhyme,

when I rehearsed it a hundred times with you.

when my legs are tired and it’s hard to stand,

or walk the steady pace that I would like to do,

please take me carefully by my hand,

and guide me now as I often did for you.
