“MAN”(un)kind

Thursday, August 31st, 2006

Apa gunanya berbangga dengan akal yang banyak,sedangkan nafsu yang satu tidak dapat dijinakkan?Apa gunanya akal yang banyak,jika tidak satu pun dapat digunakan dengan baik?Masihkan akal yang banyak itu terus menjadi kebanggaan serta tunjang keegoan?Terlalu mudah bagi mereka yang berakal banyak untuk mengakui diri sebagai ‘ketua’ atau pun ‘pemimpin’,sedangkan mereka pada asalnya ada yang tidak layak sama sekali!Semuanya kerana mereka belum faham hakikat maksud sebenar kata-kata Tuhan. Jadi hentikanlah daripada terus yakin bahawa yang mempunyai akal yang banyak itu bermaksud yang paling hebat! (end)

Promises sworn will soon shatter

When love and just no longer matter

There’d be acts of vicious treason

At a time when lust overshadows reason

Powers bestowed will be abused   

And the innocent, wrongly accused

What once was whole and strong as one

Would be forgotten when all’s been said and done

Tears and regret will not make things better

When the right and wrong in mind, cease to matter

An ordeal that took a second to build and end

Yet their wounds and scars will haunt a lifetime

A heart is breaking, but no one cares

Some turn away, while others stare

Can one mend a broken heart?

That’s been dying slowly and torn apart

Is there even the slightest cure

To return the heart of what it was before

Is this the life that’s meant to be blissfully shared?

A beautiful plan of God led wrong in hands of man

=Throughout time…The mind denies…The heart unmoved…Then comes what is called..As a feeling of  ‘nothingness’=

I’m Away

Tuesday, August 29th, 2006

Dear Sirs..

I’m taking leave (or ‘have’ taken rather..). I’ve left my cell at safe hands and so those who have my number feel free to leave msgs but please know that no replies would be possible for the time being. For those who don’t have my number; consider yourselves lucky not having to waste your cell’s memory.

I don’t think I owe anyone money nor borrowed anything so I should be able to take leave with peace. Don’t think my presence will be necessary for the moment either so everything and everyone should be fine

I’ll be back some time if not soon then later.
Regards ^_^

INTRODUCTION

A recent report by the UNDP has estimated that by the year 2010, 45% of the world’s total population and GDP growth would home within the Asia Pacific region; 43% of which, will reside in cities. With the growing population demanding for better living quality, planning for the future development is crucial to ensure minimal negative aftereffects in a long run.

Another aspect which should be taken into consideration amidst planning for a development is the development control. An uncontrolled development will only result in the depleation of the natural resource and environmental quality hence upsetting the ecological cycle upon which, humans are a part of. Therefore, Malaysia being a rapidly growing country with the level of urbanization estimated to be at 73% by the year 2025 should not undervalue the importance of both development planning and development control.

*now please give me suggestion on development control aside from the statutory development plans, the compulsory application for planning permission and others as stated in the TCPA Act 172. -_-” (can’t think ne more)

All lecturers and staffs of KAED are on holiday…
In Langkawi…
Until Wednesday…
KAED students feel blessed…
But not I…
For I don’t even have classes to attend to begin with…

KAED’s lab suddenly feels so spacious…
For the students are also on self-proclaimed "holiday"…
I love KAED the way it is now…
^_^

-often we make as though being thankful is a grueling task; because we never seem to be able to see that what God has grant us as ‘too much’ or even ‘enough’ instead they’re mistaken as ‘too little’. perhaps it’s time we do a reality check; "are we even worthy of such blessings" and "have we perhaps set our benchmarks for ‘too little’ rather unfairly"?-

Shall I not stay and keep you awake?

Ever had one of those days when everything seems to be going ALL wrong?Yeah..I’ve had “those”..Only for me, it seems to be lasting for a straight week (mind you I said “those” in the 1st place..)

…that’s it..I’m going out to watch a movie..even if people seem to think I’ll look pathetic going alone..I cudn’t give a rat! Hey..since the week’s been pretty wicked already what have I got to lose rite? Since I’ve been treated like an idiot for almost a week why not just continue to become the bigger idiot???

I might not come across any nice bus drivers who won’t scream/shout/throw you out of the bus when you’ve realized you don’t have enough coins to pay for fare (rather lets you on for free) nor will I see any glass angels, all glittery glazed (or wazzit the spotlight?) with arms open wide welcoming you to a blessful day (or whatever’s left of that day anyway) today..but I’m sure I’ll meet something along the way, or so I hope! Last but not least, I’m welcoming it with a smile… 6_6

enduring slings & arrows

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

It’s mid August!(already??!!)

Although I’ve been trying my best (ok maybe NOT the ‘best’ yet..but I’m nearly there..erm..I hope?) to work on my project paper yet nearly all efforts end in vain.How am I to get anything when I can’t get a 2 way communication?

Working adults..to some point I think they’re just trying to make our student lives miserable by not cooperating (please exclude Masters & phD students) at any point.You make an effort in calling before hand, introducing yourself etc, making an appointment and forwarding an official letter from the Kulliyyah.You even come on time on the day of the appointment..yet the result?

"owh report ni takdelah dik, tak tahulah siapa pinjam"

"yang ini shj yg kami ada tapi tak boleh bagi adik sebab tak cukup copy..tahun depan mungkin ada lah..tapi adik boleh tgk la"

"ye ke?ntahlah akak pun tak tahu..yelah benda ni kan baru lagi…"

I’ve just been to BTN last Sunday. The key elements highligted were to not only love your country but to make the best use of the time you have in university - education was the main priority. How can I get a good education when I have been deprived of my rights to be educated? These informations which I seek from govt offices/semi govt; I’m not doing it for fun..it’s for research!Furthermore they aren’t even classified materials..so much for the so called "transparency" in the govt system…

Another matter which I’ve observed through my 5 years of dealing with these offices..The resource centre is unkempt..(eventhough they’re not even being used much!!) I don’t even see that they appreciate or value data/information!But when a student seeks these information they WON’T give it..reports berlambak all still in mint conditions but won’t even give you a copy.Why?just cause you’re JUST a degree student in geeky sneakers & jeans?And the best part?They say that they’re always BUSY..hello..doing what?At 2p.m you’re still chit-chatting or smoking away..

If indeed you say what I state in untrue..try checking the resource in JPBD Jln Cenderasari,Even Wisma UN’s resource in Pusat Bandar Damansara….

Chocolate Indulgance

Saturday, August 12th, 2006

So WHAT have I been up to?My..my..my..what indeed…

Last Friday,went to MBPJ posing a student taking up an assignment just to get free copy of reports!(apeni..tax increased..’city’ status dh dpt tp cam kedekut!)ha..ha…ha..my geeky sneakers+jeans must’ve given away me identity..(lum smpt bukak mulut…deme dh tny "ha..student hek..jumpa akak sebelah sana..) - made my life all the much easier..

Saturday..

My so nak-cari-fasal self masterminded in attending a briefing in MBPJ which if I might add, did not succeeded me in making new frens as erm..major AGE gap of the participants & also,each one of us HAD to introduce ourselves (please note that I’m not representing any associations here..) Imagine havin to wake ur early to go to some briefing on a saturday…Rest of the day were allocated in chaperoning me baby sister..Day ended with me devouring a slice of ‘chocolate indulgance’ (pure ecstacy…) But to top it up,I got this great book of ‘101 questions your cat would ask’ -and no..it’s not about a feline’s mischevious thoughts but rather how to take care of your cat…meooowwwww!!!

Tmrw..hahaha…(here comes the BEST part)..I have a FULL DAY ‘Biro Tata Negara’ which requires me to be at d hall by 7.30 am..on a SUNDAY!!!Oh yes,dun forget my appointment the next day at KPKT..

penat mcm nak nangis…

but by the end of the day..all you could do is smile…

DO NOT QUESTION MY PRESENCE IN KAED

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

YES I have no classes (excluding an independent study)..
YES I have no urgent business that forces my presence in KAED (aside from consultation)
and NO..I’m not working in any offices regardless of CBE nor Al-Bukhary..not even the resource centre!!!

“Nisa..takde kelas kan?”
“Nisa kenapa datang KAED”?
“Balik rumah jela Nisa”
“….yelah…org takde kelas kan…”

Do I bother your “majesties” when I’m in KAED?Are your “majesties” paying for my humble tuition fees?So stop with all the annoying questions! If indeed envy is what grows upon you then please by all means keep it to your ROYAL self - I’m neither interested nor amused at your thoughts…

Never for a split second think that just because I do not have any classes my life is free as a bird,joyful & blissful..perhaps to those who STILL at an adult age; view life as pure enjoyment it is.How many of you actually value this education that you’ve been given an opportunity at?If you say you do, I’d say that’s just mere lip service! Do you actually “work” (forgive me for using a perhaps ‘unfamilliar’ verb here) to get education? Or do you ‘wait’ to be ’served’? Undeniably there are many “photocopy machines” here…too much that makes ‘critical thinking’ sounds like some kind of an endangered species!
