Our ageing world

ok dah ingt balik apa topik yg sy nak share last time..when reading The Dominion Post few days ago..i was interested to this topic..the title is "Our ageing world"..according to this newspaper ,people aged 65 and over will soon outnumber children under five for the first time in history..globally, this "oldest old" population is projected to increase 233% between 2008 and 2040..what do u say about this?why is that so? the reason that they have predicted was the increase is primarily the result of high fertility levels after World War II and secondarily, but increasingly, the result of reduced death rates at older ages..yeah, that is right I think..as we can see in Malaysia itself, older people such as our grand grand parents or aunts are more energetic eventhough they are already 70s or 80s..for example, I still have my grandmother who is still energetic eventhough she is nearly 90 years old..she is older than Tun Mahathir I guess..but they still can perform so many things..they are very hardworking..they don't like to waste their time by doing nothing..mayb that is because the difference in lifestyle and environment now and before..

secondly, high fertility levels..mayb that's also true..people before the world war, our late grandparents, they do get married before age 20..if compared to now, even people age 40 still haven't got married. they usually busy with their job..some people think that getting married means that they will have a high responsibilty..well, that's the reason why we are here, in this world. to take the responsibily..and then, we can also compare the number of children that each family has.. nowadays, the average children in each family basically just 2 or 3..and maximum we can see is 4 i guess..but before the world war II, each family basically has at least 8 children..some family has more than 15 children...is that because of high fertility or they choose to have them? if u get married at the earlier age, the chances of getting more children is high..well that is my opinion..

Maksud firman Allah swt: “Dan kahwinlah orang-orang bujang diantara kamu dan orang-orang yang layak berkahwin dari hamba yang lelaki dan perempuan.Jika mereka miskin,Allah swt akan memberikan kemampuan kepada mereka dengan kurniaNya.Dan Allah Maha Luas pemberiannya lagi Maha Mengetahui”.[24:32]

Wahai diri

sempat nk update blog before tido ni..takut esok bangun,da lupa point hari ni..mcm last time..i think i had sumting to write about..the idea came before i closed my eyes..a good entry i think..but then, end up i forgot what i want to write about the next day..xpe la..mayb die x ditakdirkan utk dikongsi bersama..haha.

ok,idea before tido mlm ni..kita kena ubah diri sendiri betul2 sebelum try ubah diri org lain..if kita nak suruh seseorang buat kebaikan, kita kenalah tunjuk dekat orang tu yang apa yang kita ajak dia buat tu, kita pun buat..bkn cakap2 kosong..bukan cakap xserupa bikin..
apa yang penting??

*****************************

diri sendiri dulu kena betul
tunjuk contoh yg baik
istiqamah

**************

that's all for today..gud nite :D

ok,ni point after bangun tido..haha.boleh pulak mcm tu ye..:D
erm, perkataan respect.
ada org ckp,
aku respect org tu, and aku xrespect sgt yg sorg lg tu..
kenapa kita pilih utk respect sumone tu??
mungkin sbb die byk ilmu..
mungkin sbb peribadi dia..
ye la, org berilmu dan peribadi baik,konfem la org akn respect kn..
nk compare dgn yg lg sorg ni, berilmu jugak la..
cuma mayb die xtunjuk kn sifat dia.kalau ada la.
kalau org yg kita respect bg nasihat or ceramah, konfem kita amik point dia kn..
so mcm tu lah kehidupan..
"Knowledge is like a fruit. When a fruit grows on a branch of a tree, its weight causes that branch to bend and bow. Similarly, when knowledge increases in a person, it causes him to become humble and not Mutakabbir (proud and boastful)"

tak kenal maka tak cinta

lain orang, lain lah perangai masing2..kita tak boleh nak expect orang lain jadi apa yang kita nak. tapi, kalau dah orang tu mempunyai akhlak yg kurang baik spt suka menunjuk2, rasa rimas pun ada kan..as for me, saya tak suka org yg suka show off..tapi sumtimes tu, kita tak tahu orang tu berniat utk menunjuk2 or dia dah mmg mcm tu kan..itu sifat dia.akhlak dia..ha, term akhlak ni, baru tau maksud die btul2 time usrah baru2 ni..tp seingat sy,masa usrah before this pn dah bincang psl akhlak ni..akhlak ni, mcm sifat semulajadi manusia..if akhlak die suka menunjuk2, die akan buat perkara tu tanpa berfikir panjang..contohnya spt "eh aku nk ckp mcm tu ke tak eh, nanti orang menyampah pulak kan. orang kata aku nk menunjuk2 pulak"..haa, if die tak pk mcm tu, trus die buat benda tu, means,tu akhlak die.if akhlak die suke sembahyang sunat after solat fardhu, die tak akan fikir, "eh nak solat sunat ke tak ek"..so,mcm tula..tapi, akhlak ni boley lagi nk dipupuk kan..cuba la slow2..

ok,back to the story..show off. kadang2 org tu tak berniat utk show off pn. sy rasa sy pun ada jugak buat benda mcm tu..sumtimes niat kita nak melawak..tapi,org lain interpret yang kita ni nak berlagak la konon..sbb tula, kita kena kenal orang tu mcm mana kan..kalau kita nak kawan dgn org tu, kita kena la kenal dia betul2..buat sesi ta'ruf..sesi ta'ruf ni takkan stop selagi kita bersama org tu..even husband and wife pn kadang2 still x faham partner masing2 walaupun dah lama berumahtangga kan..kalau tak,xde la gaduh2, cerai berai kan..

tapi itu lah..yang sy nak tegaskan di sini, sy xsuka orang berlagak. dan seolah2 poyo..dan sy cuba utk tdk mengeluarkan perkataan yg seolah2 kita ni hebat sgt..ada itu, ada ini..even xberniat, tapi, manusia biasa lah..suka misinterpret.. so,susah lah kan..satu cara je, kurangkan bercakap perkara2 yg tidak berfaedah...dan satu lagi, cuba kenal org sekeliling kita..apa sifat dia, perangai dia so that kita tak salah faham maksud yang cuba disampaikan di situ..sekian

And the weekend is over..

Tomorrow is the 3rd week of the semester, and I feel like my soul is still not ready yet..I haven't done any revision so far and I should start it by tonight otherwise I will be left at the back..ok.

The weekend is over again and again..time goes so fast until I feel I couldn't chase it. I have only got 24 hours per day and not beyond that..so, I need to fill it up by something that is valuable.

throughout this week, i have been through so many things but I don't feel to share them all.
People come and people go. today, 26th July is the day that kak hani leaving Palmy and us for good. Although she might come back in Nov but it is still be different because she is no longer being a student here. There will be no more hanging out with her, playing with her, and etc...if u are reading this, I wish u all the best in what ever u do, be a gud teacher in the future and our friendship will lasting forever..insyaAllah.:)

this weekend also, I missed the flight deal from MAS where I couldn't grab it for now since I haven't decided and applied for any summer job in here..which mean, I missed the opportunity to buy a return ticket of only $900 which is very2 cheap..:( it's okay..rezeki tak ke mana..

and this week also, I heard someone got so many problems that he could't stand for it..for u, just be patient..there are all ujian from God to us..take it easy and u'll be fine.and gud luck for ur midterm exams also..all the best :)

Magnetic theory

today during the instrumentation class, my lecturer said sumting about the strong relationship between the north and south pole. " the north and south pole of a magnet is the strongest couple among all relationship..they cannot be separated even when you apply the strongest force to break them apart..they will still want to be closed together"..hehe..how lovely.that have made me day dreaming in the class. but don't worry, kejap je berangan.lpas tu focus balik la okay =P anyway, i enjoy learning about electromagnetic things..quite interesting so far, but who knows it will be hard throughout the semester..whatever..we have to enjoy in what ever we are doing okay..

and now, weekend is coming! and we've already got a plan to go for a ski trip to mt ruapehu this sunday...it's been two years i went for a ski and now i am very keen to try that again..and also this trip will be our last moment together with some good friends as this is their final semester in here..hopefully everything will goes smoothly and we'll enjoy the moment!

Antara MJ dan Dr Marwa al Sherbini

Anda tahu kisah Michael Jackson? walaupun sy sedikit terlewat tahu psl kematian MJ, but still, sy dapat tahu psl tu dari kawan2 dan juga it was still in the news beberapa hari kemudian..beberapa hari kemudian, sy dapat email yg telah diforwardkan kpd sy..terkejut jugak..tak tahu pun psl satu cerita yg menyayat hati yet membuatkan sy geram, sedih..mls nk type panjang2..so sy just copy and paste jela ek..nk kongsi cite utk sape2 yg blom tau psl cite hamba Allah ni.."tayangan pemakaman the King of Pop, Michael Jackson yang begitu gegap gempita di tv kita sepanjang hari kemarin. Beberapa stesyen tv menayangkan tayangan eksklusif langsung dari AS acara penghormatan terakhir bagi si Raja Muzik Pop sampai pagi ! Dan entah berapa juta mata masyarakat dunia yang rela menahan mata demi menyaksikan acara itu.

Saya sedih, bukan karena kematian MJ yang dipuja jutaan orang di dunia. Tapi saya sedih, karena pada saat yang sama, berlangsung pemakaman seorang muslimah yang Insya Allah menjadi seorang syahidah karena mempertahankan jilbabnya. Marwa Al-Sharbini, seorang ibu satu anak yang sedang mengandung tiga bulan, wafat akibat ditikam sebanyak 18 kali oleh seorang pemuda Jerman keturunan Rusia yang anti-Islam dan anti-Muslim. Tapi berita ini, sama sekali tidak saya temukan di televisi-televisi Indonesia, negara yang mayoritas penduduknya Muslim, bahkan mungkin, tak banyak dari kita yang tahu akan peristiwa yang menimpa Marwa.




Ribuan orang di Mesir yang mengantar jenazah Marwa ke tempat peristirahatannya yang terakhir, memang tidak sebanyak orang yang menangisi kepergian Michael Jackson. Marwa hanya seorang ibu dan bukan superstar seperti MJ. Tapi kepergian Marwa adalah lambang jihad seorang muslim. Marwa mempertahankan harga dirinya sebagai seorang Muslimah yang mematuhi ajaran agamanya meski untuk itu ia kehilangan nyawanya.

Marwa ditikam di ruang sidang kota Dresden, Jerman saat akan memberikan kesaksian atas kesnya. Ia mengadukan sorang pemuda Jerman bernama Alex W yang kerap menyebutnya “teroris” hanya karena ia mengenakan jilbab. Dalam suatu kesempatan, pemuda itu bahkan pernah menyerang Marwa dan berusaha melepas jilbab Muslimah asal Mesir itu. Di persidangan itulah, Alex kembali menyerang Marwa, kali ini ia menikam Marwa
berkali-kali (18kali menurut satu sumber). Suami Marwa yang berusaha melindungi isterinya, malah terkena tembakan kaparat keamanan pengadilan yang berdalih tak sengaja menembak suami Marwa yang kini dalam kondisi kritikal di rumah sakit Dresden.

Peristiwa ini sepi dari pemberitaan di media massa Jerman dan mungkin dari pemberitaan media massa asing dunia karena yang menjadi korban adalah seorang muslimah yang dibunuh oleh orang Barat yang anti-Islam dan anti-Muslim. Situasinya mungkin akan berbeda jika yang menjadi korban adalah satu orang Jerman atau orang Barat yang dibunuh oleh seorang ektrimis Islam. Beritanya dipastikan akan gempar dan mendunia.

Itulah sebabnya, mengapa di tv-tv kita kemarin cuma dijejali dengan pemberitaan seputar pemakaman Michael Jackson yang mengharu biru itu. Tak ada berita pemakaman syahidah Marwa Al-Sharbini yang mendapat sebutan “Pahlwan Jilbab”. Tak ada protes dunia Islam atas kematiannya. Tak ada tangis kaum muslimin dunia untuknya. Tapi tak mengapa Marwa … karena engkau akan mendapatkan tempat yang paling mulia di sisiNya. Seiring doa dari orang-orang yang mencintaimu. Selamat jalan saudariku, maafkan kami jika kurang peduli …

p/s: if nak tahu lebih lanjut or nk tgk video2 psl ni,cuba lah search nama Marwa dlm utube..u'll find some :)

tomorrow, the lectures will resume..the semester two will begin..the life as a student will continue..am i ready?not mentally i guess..with this condition..hurm..what to do..have to go with the flow..i can't create my own rule..i can't decide whether to go or not to the class..it is all will affect my study..only one and a half year to go to finish my degree here..alhamdulillah..hope that everything will be smooth and fine..and i also hope that this semester i will perform better than before..amin..

After the match with WMSO

Hero

i am now stuck at the state that i,me,myself have created..
there is no turning back for me i guess..
unless there are some miracles that He will show to me later on..
just be patient and be a gud girl..
i'm afraid if the decision that has been made will affect my future..
ya Allah, aku berlindung kepadaMu dari rasa sedih dan gelisah..
dan aku berlindung padaMu dari sikap pengecut dan bakhil..
dan aku berlindung padaMu dari cengkaman hutang dan penindasan orang..

Talk is silver, silence is gold

Talk is silver, silence is gold..i like this phrase..well, silence is the best policy..why?ok,let's move on..

It is interesting to note how Silent and Listen have same letters but are arranged differently.I've found it in a blog that i've just read..quite nice though

We humans have a tendency to talk more and listen less..why is that? much of it is because we have forgotten the art of waiting and allowing ourselves to grow silent within. But not for a tree..

when we are silent and waiting, something beautiful inside us keeps on growing and it is this stillness and silence that gives birth to creativity. one more thing, the more we keep silent, the less heart that can be hurt.

There are times when silence becomes the most potential way of communication and is more effective than words. We all have at least one memory when we have faced that eloquent silence of our elders such as parents or teachers when we have felt a cold fear at the bristling silence of their fury. When their silence had scared us more than angry words. When just one quiet look had had us behaving better than a harsh reprimand or scolding.

Lovers all over the world are said to communicate with silence. Understand each other’s silence. The famous telepathy between two people who have strong feelings for each other happens in a compelling silence.

In a business world the salesmen are taught the art of persuasive silence. After he has urged the potential client to buy some product and the customer is contemplating quietly over what the salesman has described, the well trained salesman remains absolutely silent during this important hiatus. Often he gains his sale by using this important tool.

Undeniably, silence needs a special kind of power and authority of mind and saying it with silence needs a certain ‘command of language’. To say nothing is often more difficult than expressing the anger, love and betrayal with words.

As these beautiful lyrics of the song ‘Sounds of silence’ by Simon and Garfunkel say:

“People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Hear my words that I might teach you;
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence.”

s.a.b.a.r

tetibe rase nk tulis entry pasal benda nih..haha.
da tak tau sgt nk tulis ape kn..
so entry kali ni bak kata heliza dlm syurga cinta..
"s.a.b.a.r"...
ckp mmg mudah kan..tapi diri sendiri yg tahu keupayaan masing2..
bile sebut sabar, people can interpret so many things..
sabar sbb nak marah?sabar sbb nak dapatkn sesuatu?
sabar menghadapi ujian?
macam2 lah..so,sabarlah wahai hati..
sesungguhnya sabar itu indah..org yang sabar disayangi Allah..
"maka bersabarlah kamu dengan sabar yang baik [70:5]"..
"Jadikanlah sabar dan shalat sebagai penolongmu. Dan sesungguhnya yang demikian itu sungguh berat, kecuali bagi orang-orang yang khusyu' [2:45]"..

Sabar
-Alarm Me-

Jangan jadi orang tidak sabar
Terus bersabar tetapkan bersabar
Sabar itu sebahgian iman
Jadikan ia satu amalan

Awan tidak sentiasa mendung
Langit yang cerah pasti akan datang
Ombak tidak sentiasa menggulung
Menghempas bahtera di laut
Kadangkala tenang
Mendamaikan hati yg rawan

Begitulah satu gambaran
Orang yang diduga dalam kehidupan
Pastinya kan tiba kemudahan
Ganjaran iman di sisi tuhan

Awan tidak sentiasa mendung
Langit yang cerah pasti akan datang
Ombak tidak sentiasa menggulung
Menghempas bahtera di laut
Kadangkala tenang
Mendamaikan hati yg rawan

Kata pujangga orang yg bersabar umpama sang pahlawan
Gagah berani ia digeruni berkorban rela mati

Jangan jadi orang tidak sabar
Terus bersabar tetapkan bersabar
Sabar itu sebahgian iman
Jadikan ia satu amalan
