I woke up this morning and found that a video on YouTube is going viral on facebook. Immediately as usual I have an urge that I need to watch this viral thingy. However, as I normally attend my sims social first, i let the video get the 100% buffer which only took 5 sec and finishing the tasks on the sims social. At the same time I let the video play by itself and with all the lagging due to flash player and my computer RAM, i still can hear that the people within the video was talking about hudud and I immediately know that this is some video that was made by pemuda to explain misconception about hudud among muslim and non muslim alike.
As for me, i think this is an absolutely brilliant attempt to counter some misconception regarding hudud which rarely explained to the public. Anyone that tried to explain it will be labelled as an opposition since this issue was brought in by the opposition party in Malaysia nearly some 50 years ago or maybe even earlier or slightly later.
It may seems barbaric even by hearing the kind of thing that someone who is guilty of charge have to go through but as explained in the video, the enforcement of the law isn't easy and it require very specific type of situation.
People sometime judge the implementation of hudud among the muslim alone as injustice but think carefully, if u are a muslim and guilty for that specific mistake and then being sentenced according to the Islamic way (hudud), at least in the hereafter you will hopefully receive less punishment as you have got the kind of punishment that Allah SWT has command. Plus, the definition of justice it self also sometimes varies according to culture and religion. In Islam, being just in a crude way is translated as putting something at its own place/ doing something accordingly. For instance, you will not be just if you have a twin son and a daughter but during their birthday, you buy both of them barbie dolls??!! Same goes to 5 times daily prayer. As a muslim, would you argue that it isn't fair because the non believer do not pray 5 times a days? Unless u are total idiot, you probably would!
Still, the conventional law will always be there as it is part of taazir in Islam. so, why even afraid of hudud if u think you will not even do the crime in the first place and the conventional law is there anyway.
The next argument is the very basic of islamic fundemental. To accept everything that come with a "package" of Islam once you say the shahadah with a full understanding of it. People know that Islam is a way of life and not just another religion. Many people say shahadah but very few really understand the obligation obligation after that. That is why probably many still do not practice even the basic of Islam. Praying 5 times a day, fasting 30 days during the month of Ramadhan, pay the zakat and go to hajj.
Last but not least, this video is only available in Malay language with no subs but I hope the director or the video editor would put in English and possibly mandarin and tamil subs later on. This issue isn't a local Malaysian issue but one of the foundation in Islam as well and possibly an "alternative" to the conventional law being used nowadays to curb socials problems.
Finally, enjoy the video itself. I will update later if they put the subtitle for this video. :)

O ye who believe! enter into Islam whole-heartedly; and follow not the footsteps of the Evil One; for he is to you an avowed enemy. (208)

Thanks for reading.
P/S:
1. Even if you dont agree, if you are a muslim, think again before you say something about hudud because you may never know that you actually go against your faith. I ask for Allah protection against this.
2. Bear in mind that it is your choice and if you leave this part of your faith, you will be accounted responsible in the hereafter. Same as prayer, fasting and so on.

My First

It all happened last Wednesday (7/12/2011). The date would probably be hard to remember but definitely I will treasure the experience. First time ever performing a surgery! I stick a scalpel into a lump of a golf-ball's size on someone's neck to remove the abscess and on another occasion, I also removed some adenoids tissue. Alhamdulillah.
Although before this I assisted in a few procedures including caesarean section, popliteal artery bypass, anterior resection of the bowel and a few more, this one was special to me as I held the scalpel on my own and making the incision myself. A very rare experience for medical students I think.
The consultant ear nose and throat (ENT) surgeon first asked me if I ever seen an abscess and perform incision and drainage. While looking straight at him, I answered that I'd seen pericolonic (around the large bowel) abscess but never done any kind of incision and drainage. The next thing was very surprising as he asked me if I want to do any surgery today. What sort of answer would you expect if you ask someone who really into surgery? Definitely a YES and from that moment, there was no way back. Since most of the ENT procedures don't require a full scrub, I put a surgical mask, washed my hand (scrubbing kind of wash) and a size 7 surgical glove.
I sat next to him while he talked me along the way. A small 1cm incision was made inferior to the angle of mandible area by me although at the end he guided my fingers and push it deeper because it wasn't deep enough to drain the abscess.
Honestly I was quite scared since it was very close to major artery (the carotid artery) of that 7 months old baby. Once the abscess started to drain, the rest was just simple squeezes to force the abscess out. Quite a lot of it came out. No wonder the lump was a size of a golf ball! Within 15 minutes, the procedure completed as no stitch required since it was small and a drainage tube was inserted into the lump so that the remaining abscess could drain later. We thanked the nurses and the anaesthetist and the surgeon then congratulated me and said 'you can now tell your friends that you performed a surgery'. I'm not sure if they will ever believe it', he added. ^__^

I'm not sure if they will ever believe it', he added. ^__^
Before that procedure, he actually showed me a bilateral (both side) appendicectomy and also adenoidectomy in which he allowed me to do (adenoidectomy) when we saw the same case after that. This was also relatively a simple procedure although it carries quite a big risk of bleeding. Adenoidectomy is basically a scrapping of the adenoids tissue on your pharynx. No cauterization even required for adenoidectomy in most cases.
The surgeon was so cool and I can't wait to sit with him again next Wednesday hoping that I will have more chances to perform some minor surgery! Hopefully ^__^
A long journey always starts with a small step. Pray for my success guys.

Almost a month ago i turned 24. Life feels so short when I look back. As if I just arrived last week in Ireland although it was already 4 years. Leaving high school back in 2004 doesn't feel too long since i can still remember some of the question from the SPM examination (i think! :D)
As usual, I would like to thank my mom, dad and the rest of my close family members who keep praying for my safety and successin this foreign land. Although it had been more than 4 years since we last celebrated it, for me, the thoughts that matter the most. Millions thanks to all.
To all my friends that helped to cheer me up with those cakes, lunch and dinner and well wishes, thanks very much. Your efforts is priceless. It is surely one of the best I ever had for the past few years.
At the moment, everything seems to be going very well. My pace is still quite slow but in getting there. Please keep praying and make dua' for us to face the final year of this tiring college life successfully Insyaallah.
I feels like I need to know more than the time I actually have to read everything. May Allah ease the efforts Insyaallah.
Till we meet again. I dont think i can write as frequent as i can but if anything important or i feel like rant, i'll definitely will post it here.
Okay, bye...

*updated*
Hello Marta,
Hello Marta,
How are you lately? how have you been keeping on with the two children that you are taking care of? I hope that you are in the pink of health. First of all i would like to say that i am very sorry for keeping it long before i write this entry. I know that i promised it to be a few weeks ago but sometimes i just don't have the mood to write. Again, I'm so sorry.
First of all, I would like to say that I am glad that somehow we were destined to meet again after the short initial introduction on the plane. As u said last time, everything that happen on our journey to Dublin was a coincidence. The plane sit, the last person going into the place etc. It definitely is a coincidence! However, I would say, serendipity. (Do watch that serendipity movie okay!) Haha. I never thought that I would met another medical student in such a situation. Anyhow, thanks for turning up on that day in front of St. Stephen green shopping centre. Honestly, I did not expect to see you again after the day at the airport. It was quite unusual (if could say) for me and you (i assume) to meet someone that we barely know on a 'date'. Oh, and it was at 8am! :-PAnyhow, i really hope that you enjoy Dublin back then although the weather was not on our side. Being a tour guide for a few hours with you was really a pleasure. Hopefully you will be able to give some guide to your mom when she come to visit you later. Also, please told her that i am very sorry if i had cause her a great worry last time because i fully understand your situation; being a single daughter of the family, away from home etc. I am glad that the day went well and you can continue working as a babysitter with Alan's family. He is such a nice employer. ^__^
Regarding the lunch last time, i think it was one of the best i ever had. Obviously not the food as i just had a slice of pizza and you with your homemade sandwiches. I would definitely try that again. Never thought that eating on the riverside's bench would be wonderful except that we had to witness that couple fighting. That guy was such a loser. I would definitely find another place for us to eat if I was not rushing for the prayer. Hopefully it was a good experience for you as well.
People say that bringing out topics such as religion, politics and history were a bad start for the first date but i think we proved it wrong! Definitely it was fine if your date also has lots of interest in it! Hehe. I hope I was able to clear a few misunderstanding about Islam that you had and not too corny. Obviously Islam was not too foreign for you as you already knew about Ramadhan (fasting month), prayer and so on. Maybe after this you can do more reading about this world fastest growing religion! I would definitely sit and talk about all these again if we ever had a chance to meet again in the future. or, even thru facebook. Haha. Well...I do have plan to go to Spain in the future and i reckon you can handle the distance between Lleida and Cordoba, do you? :-)
Okay, before I bored you more, I hope that you'll enjoy your stay in Ireland and reach the targets that you have in mind. May you continue doing all those charity works as well. I really envy the effort that you have! The world definitely need more future doctors like you. Keep in touch.
Bye...
Yours truly,
Muaz Adam

Barcelona part 2
7/09/2011 11:51:00 AM
part 2 of the journey in Barcelona (edited*)
The Be Hostel sound that i stayed in has some disadvantage in term of power sockets inside the room. They only have them at one corner (at least in the room that i stayed in) although there were more than enough to be used by 10 person.
since I dont want to act awkwardly by arching over my newly met friend who was sleeping on the bed in order to get to the power socket, i decided to charge my phone in the common room area where the breakfast was served.
Following the breakfast, i noticed something wrong. My skin was peeling badly especially on the nasal bridge and on the forehead. Probably because of the heat or maybe the sunburn. The next thing i did was i quickly went to the pharmacy and get the facial cleaner that help to de-skin the part that was peeling. quite costly since they dont have the regular Nivea, so i just bought a product from a brand that i never heard of which cost me almost 20 euro! pFFFT!
The 2nd day start at 10 am although i already awake since 8am. it was the 'free' tour guide conducted by a guy named Adam. He was from aussie. There were 2 different guides that happen at the same time. One is call Gaudi Tour and the other one is Gothic Tour. They do this twice every day, one in the morning and one in the evening. so, you can go to either one in the morning and the next one in the evening or the following day.
 |
| Famous restaurant. One of Messi's favorite. Specialize in snails cooking. |
 |
| Picasso was accepted at a very young age here in this building. Some kind of arts university |
 |
| Adam with the background of old Roman's wall |
At lunchtime, we had a 3 course menu lunch at one of the restaurant in Plaza Real. It was very cheap. Less than 10 euro and you can get a proper 3 course menu with free water. :P Definitely it was a new experience for me as i rarely had any lunch experience as such. Oh, this place was also where all the 'magic' happen on my last night in Barcelona which i would tell more on the last part of the trip.
 |
| Lunch with Mong |
 |
| @ one of Gaudi's masterpiece |
 |
| @ the famous market. Off la rambla |
 |
| @ Sagrada da Familia |
One more interesting part about this 2nd day was it somehow fall on the San Juan Festival. So, although it was only 6pm when the tour finished, many of us already headed towards the beach area where the celebration took place. In fact, two of the people from the tour already wore their beach shorts on the tour! As for me, I decided to go back to the hostel immediately after the tour, prayed asar and then went to the beach with the other group as Mong and Mickael decided to go for Tapas and something tour (more like a traditional dinner and some dancing show going on at the same time). it cost only 20 euro! ;p
So, as day went by (post quick kebab dinner), we eventually reached the beach at around 10pm. Initially there was only 4 of us just sitting on the beach and talking with the background of locals that keep lighting up the firecrackers. At about 12 midnight after the other finished enjoying their tapas and something-that-i-forgot-the-name, we all sit together in a group of about 10 people and started to enjoy the scenes. The Catalan really celebrate this event which some said was even merrier than the Christmas celebration (without the santa). They said it was considered as some sort of new year celebration which could be true as people did went to the beach with tents and barbecues and the most important of all, firecrackers and fireworks!
Apart from people skinny dipping in the Mediterranean and getting drunk, the rest were fine. We stay on the beach almost until 4am when everyone decided to go back as some of us need to catch bus and flight to their next destination. Overall, it was fun just sitting and talking, sharing experiences and knowing a little bit more about everything and one another. :)
I slept soundly after performing the subuh (morning) prayer before begin the journey on my last day at Barcelona as a lone ranger . ^__^

Wisdom: Saying/doing the right word/thing at the right moment at the right place
Agree? Although it could be something unpleasant or hurtful, sometimes it just need to be done/said.
In seerah (history), a man once came to see prophet Muhammad SAW. He confessed that he drank alcohol, involved in gambling and so on. He wanted the prophet to advised him. So the prophet told him, 'Don't lie'.
Short and simple.
The following is probably a longer version of the same story. See how a short message could lead to a very deep meaning if it was conveyed at the right moment in a right way.
TELLING THE TRUTH : Telling the truth is a very good habit. If you always speak the truth, you can save yourself from a lot of trouble! Here is a story of a man who did a lot of bad things, but his promise to tell the truth saved him.
Once a man came to the prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) and said, "Oh prophet of Allah, I have many bad habits. Which one of them should I give up first?" The prophet said, "Give up telling lies first and always speak the truth." The man
promised to do so and went home. At night the man was about to go out to steal. Before setting out, he thought
for a moment about the promise he made with the prophet. "If tomorrow the prophet asks me where have I been, what shall I say? Shall I say that I went out stealing? No, I cannot say that. But nor can I lie. If I tell the truth,
everyone will start hating me and call me a thief. I would be punished for stealing."
So the man decided not to steal that night, and gave up this bad habit. Next day, he felt like drinking wine, when he was about to do so, he said to himself, "What shall I say to the prophet if he asks me what did I do during the
day? I cannot tell a lie, and if I speak the truth people will hate me, because a Muslim is not allowed to drink wine." And so he gave up the idea of drinking wine.
In this way, whenever the man thought of doing something bad, he remembered his promise to tell the truth at all times. One by one, he gave up all his bad habits and became a good Muslim and a very good person. If you always speak the truth, you can be a good person, a good Muslim whom Allah likes and favors. If Allah - our Creator - is pleased with us, He will reward us with HEAVEN, which is a place of happiness and joy.
Make a promise: I shall always speak the truth.
I believe it is essential to advise people in a way that is best for them. Yes, it is hard to tell which one is the best for them but sometimes, just do it is also probably the best. The most important is not to humiliate them in front of others. Do it in away that preserve their dignity although whatever they did might be very unpleasant for us that we feel the urge to yell 'STOP' at them immediately!
Okay, that's all for now. I need to continue reading as exam is only 4 days away. Pray for my success lads.
May Allah bless all of you on this very special day, the Friday.
************
I'm actually reading this one novel called 'One day'. Never thought that i would love an English novel in my life other that the Harry Potter Series. This one just captured my attention. Maybe because of the genre (romantic) or the urge to finish it before the movie adapted from this international bestselling novel came out this early August! Ho yeah!
Barcelona part 2 will be out after July 6th okay. Bye...
Barcelona part 1
6/29/2011 02:49:00 PM
Alhamdulillah, i was granted some times to visit this great city of Catalan, Barcelona. A city with a long......history, including during the occupation of the Morrs in Spain and the crusaders. I'm not interested to talk about the history but rather my own personal experience in this great city with great peoples that I met during my 3 days and 3 nights trip to this city. Very few of them are younger than me which make it wonderful as they come here just to chill and enjoy the city rather than trying to visit every little possible places that they can think of. Plus, some of them had traveled a lot including Malaysia which make it easier to choose the topic of conversation.
Here is my journey. Hopefully you guys enjoy reading it.
I arrived at around 8.30pm and it was still very much like 5pm in Malaysia on a bright sunny day. Because i was quite tired, i decided to take a taxi to the hostel. It is called Be Hostel Sound. Actually it was part of the Be Hostel chains around this city. 2 other hostel called Be Hostel Marr and Be hostel Rambla located 5 to 7 minutes away from this hostel. I was greeted (immediately fallen in love) by Kasha at the reception counter. She was very helpful and nice enough to answer all the unnecessary invented little detail that I can think of. Haha.
Anyhow, she is also very understanding as well when i asked her about praying inside the hostel. Seems like she is pretty familiar with Islam when she offered me some small spaces that i could use for praying. Very nice of her indeed. The hostel is very nice i have to say. Although u'll share a room with 7 or 10 more people, you don't need to worry about the security because everyone has electronic locker which is quite big that it can fit your 80 liters travelling bag inside. No curfew plus only electronic cardholder can get access into the hostel. The only downside is that if you live in room 001, you'll have to share the in-suite bathroom with you roomies of both sexes and i find it rather unpleasant. Need not to worry, if you live on other room, the bathroom is separated by gender only that it was outside your room. After finished praying jama' taakhir of zohor and asar, i decided to stroll around the neighboring area as planned.

| A big Cat Statue at Rambla del Raval |
My aim was actually to find the Tariq bin Ziyad mosque that search beforehand on google map before i started my journey back in Dublin. Lucky enough, it was only 10 minutes from the hostel and i prayed Maghrib and Isyak (Jama') over there. This mosque situated at Rambla del Raval which is fulled with halal shops along the street although some of them do sell beers etc. If you guys want to stay in Barcelona, i strongly suggest this area because it is easy to find halal stuff to cook (if allowed by the hostel) and lots of Muslim population around. Although this neighborhood is quite dodgy, i would say that in term of safety, it is at least 8/10. No part of Barcelona is safe enough when it comes to the residential area. Lots of burglars and prostitutes around to be honest. I never seen such an area over the past 4 years that i took to travel in Europe, including Amsterdam! Plus, this area is very close the popular La Rambla and lots of metro that is available for the use to visit other places such as Sagrada Familia without the need to change the metro line. ^__^
A: Hostel Be Sound
Tariq bin Ziyad Mosque: Carrer de Sant Rafael
Be Hostel Marr: Carrer de Sant Pau
Later that night after I had my dinner in one of the shop at Rambla del Raval, i met a few people from the hostel and we decided to go out and enjoy Barcelona at night. I wont go into detail but suffice for me to say that it was a good night out. Just imagine 6 guys on a night out and just trying to enjoy themself. No wonder only 2 people get to the beach and fast asleep on the beach until early morning. The rest? Distracted by cute french ladies. LOL. is it not what happened Akal? :P
P/s:
1. Akal is one of the guy from India that i met, he might not read this but i think it will be very funny if he sees this. Unfortunately, i don't have everyone email to add them on FB. These law students somehow left their Sikh at home and enjoy Barcelona to the fullest!
2. I'll continue on a day to day basis of my 3 days trip at Barcelona.

Banding harga gula. Malaysia dan Ireland.
Selepas ditukar kepada ringgit
Msia: ~250 sen/kg
Ireland: ~500 sen/kg
Pendapatan bersih doktor (sambil membayangkan kesusahan pakcik penoreh getah/penyapu sampah beranak 5 di Malaysia) Sapu sampah di sini pun boleh dapat paling2 dalam 700/800 euro sebulan.
Msia: ~4000 sebulan
Ireland: ~8000 sebulan (2000 euro)
Dengan mengurangkan subsudi gula (peningkatan harga 20 sen) kerajaan dapat berjimat sebanyak 117 juta setahun.
Dengan melaksanakan projek email untuk semua rakyat diatas umur tah berapa tahun, kerajaan dah membazir 50 juta. Dengan lawatan 60 orang wakil untuk persidangan wanita tah apabenda kat mana tah, pembinaan bangunan 100 tingkat dan lain-lain sila kira pembaziran yang berlaku.
lama dah menulis yg ni tapi tersangkut dekat draft. lupa dah apa nak dimasukkan lagi.
Perhimpunan BERSIH 2.0 tak lama lagi. Jom pakat ramai-ramai turun KL sertai perhimpunan tu.
Kalau sebelum merdeka, orang ramai berkumpul jugak dan berarak untuk menentang kezaliman, tapi sekarang rupanya tak boleh pulak. Tambah menyedihkan, ramai pulak yang buta perut hanya memikirkan periuk nasik masing-masing. Tak pandang masa hadapan dah, dia kira kalau ada perhimpunan tu, kedai tutup, tak dapat buat duit, rugi. Ish ish...sedih dengan orang macam ni.

Kalau rasa aku tipu, baca balik buku teks sejarah sekolah menengah! Pastu, boleh jugak kot baca satu buku ni yang macam menarik, The Other Malaysia.
Aku harap sangat dapat join BERSIH, namun apakan daya, daku masih berada di bumi asing ini. Semoga Allah memenangkan pihak yang benar!
ALLAHUAKBAR!

Alhamdulillah. One more to go and hopefully me and my friends are done with fouth med. Torturing year it is indeed.
No wonder they (seniors) said that its the hardest of all year although final year bear the most important result of all.
Pray for our success and hopefully one day we all can go back n serve the nation.
Not to forget, congratulations to all final year seniors from RCSI, UCD, TCD and Galway who already finished with their undergrads study. Congrats Doctors!
Islam is a religion of peace and those shitheads act as if they are thw protector. From my point of view, they are not better than the Zionist. Suppressing and manipulating others using the name of race!

Lately there has been so much things happening in Malaysia espcially regarding the commotion made by PERKASA. As a malay, i feel so ashamed to have them as my countrymen. Plus, many of them are muslim and i personally think they probably don't know that they should never act in such a way.Islam is a religion of peace and those shitheads act as if they are thw protector.

Any of u even seen this video before?. I know its lame. Just a video. Really? or could it be more?
Have you watch it? What do u think? Cute isn't it?
Superficially, it seems like just another cute video (it is?) from Youtube where some random guy posted a video and somehow become famous instantly like a quick 2 minutes instant noodle. ^___^ .
Obviously inappropriate symbolism i got here. LOL.
Obviously inappropriate symbolism i got here. LOL.
Anyhow, the video itself might mean nothing to many but rather just enjoy it for whatever reason be it the cuteness or just simply amazing voice of the fathers for some.
Only when you read more or maybe stalk more about it, then you'll know that it was not just another video.
It was a therapy session for the girls and i'm quite sure also for the father himself.
It was a love story. Something that many are afraid to venture into after multiple failure. Hopefully after read the article below, you-who-had-multiple-failure would not stop from venturing into those area again because whatever happen, life must go on.
It is also a prove that Allah The Almighty is in power to bring about the wealth or whatever goodness to you if he desired in a way that you never expected.
Marry those among you who are single, or the virtuous ones among your slaves, male or female: if they are in poverty, Allah will give them means out of His grace: for Allah encompasseth all, and He knoweth all things. (An-Nur: 32)
Click here you'll be touch after you finish reading it. I hope so. ^___^

Sedar tak sedar, dah hampir setahun aku dalam tahun 4 di RCSI ni.
Harini aku memulakan satu rotation baru dan terakhir untuk tahun ni.
Rasa macam baru beberapa bulan lepas saja aku buat general practice. Rotation pertama tahun ni untuk aku.
So, ramai orang cakap this is the most demanding of all rotation. Pack schedule plus sooooo many stuff to read and many are new untuk aku sebab ObGyn is considered one of the specialty dalam medicine. Rasanya ada hampir 40 quizzes dan 14 cases untuk dihabiskan. Paling banyak setakat ini.
Satu minggu nanti akan ada labour ward untuk belajar dan menyaksikan sendiri kesusahan wanita melahirkan bayi. Lepas tu, satu minggu nanti aku akan ke Kilkenny, bagi peripheral rotation. Lain-lain masa, kami semua diharapkan agar menjadi seperti intern untuk membantu dan belajar sendiri (first hand) dari team-team di hospital dan juga dari nota-nota. oh, nanti ada juga surgery dan kena revise balik anatomy.

Jadi, harap korang semua doakan aku. Lagi 6 minggu, ada exam dan selang 2 hari kemudian, bermulalah peperiksaan akhir untuk tahun 4 ni! Semoga Allah membantu aku dan rakan-rakan dalam menjalani rotation ini dan juga peperiksaan yang menanti kami.

Know your right
3/27/2011 09:15:00 PM
To take part in election is exercising your right. Sometimes, we don't even know whether the election process is being done either truthfully or not. So, hopefully with this short video (obviously will never be from RTM) will raise some awareness about your right as a citizen. Before this, i heard that one of my relatives said to me that the vote could be trace thus for government officer, it would be bad if they choose to vote for the opposition. I thought it was an excuse that she gave so that she does have to go out to vote. Now, i know it is true. So, after this, you should not afraid anymore about your vote being trace.
I still remember that during the general election in 2008, the undi post did not reach Ireland. It stucked somewhere in UK according to the person from embassy at that time. I was wondering at that time what happened to those votes that did not reach the people that they were supposed to. Hopefully no one cast the vote for them and it was considered as undi rosak.
In Malaysia, we (you) are rarely being educate about our right because if they (government) do, they know that people will go against them. That's why they are able to manipulate and do as they wish. The reason that they are afraid of internet also could be linked to increase in level of education and awareness among citizens. For years, we have be bullied indirectly by not being able to know our own right, be it in education, health, legal, banking system etc.
People would only know about their right if they go to lawyer and looking for some legal case to be sorted. The best example was how the saman ekor was being manipulated all these while. That way it was constructed was illegal as being exposed recently and now, the JPJ and the authority are looking a way to restructure it so that they will be able to continue collecting the money from rakyat. New system is on the way, so be careful. ^__^
As shown in this video, some worker (including police, doctors, teachers etc) who was paid by the government to serve the rakyat (people) act as if they were the only truth. Whatever they say is right and you cannot go against them. If only you know your right, they won't be able to do that. The same about doing a rally which was suppose to be control by the police, not being held by them!
This is only a little exposure of your right as a citizen although it would give a great impact on the future of our beloved country, Malaysia. Hopefully, Malaysians would be able to exercise their right without any fear anymore.
yours truly,
A young generation of Malaysian
Their Secret?
3/17/2011 09:26:00 AM
Assalamualaikum wbt and good mornig everyone,
The whole Japan today are combating a battle with the destructive force brought by the 'nature' (so called by the 'westerners') about 7 days ago. Earthquake and tsunami. As they are struggling to cope and make a comeback, 'nature' brought another weapon at the destructed area, snow and cold weather. It probably will take some time for them to win this battle. Expert opinion predicted that it could take as long as 10 years to bring everything as they were before. In some places, probably never.
Since the first day of the tragedy, i'd been following the live news from CNN, BBC and some other sources such as newspapers, blogs etc. I always find that following 'natural disaster' interesting. I am amaze by the scale and the kind of thing happened. For me, it was a reminder and at the same time, you can try to imagine if something were to happen during the end of the day. As a Muslim, we believe that Allah SWT created something for a purpose. Even in such a disaster like this. I don't want to go into the debate about 'why HE did this is he were the most merciful etc' because then it will be out from my initial reason when writing this. If you want a good explanation about that, feel free to watch a short video by Dr. Zakir Naik.
At the moment, a nuclear plant is becoming a nuclear time bomb. You probably know in detail about this thing. In short, all the 3 safety plans that supposed to contain the explosion had failed and now they are preventing what is worse to come. All are because of earthquake and tsunami. As a human, we planed for the best. In the end, it was HE that determined everything. But the point here is that we have to be prepared and don't just rely on nothing. We have to plan and work towards it and remember that at certain point, we might need to change it accordingly. The backup is a must.
Amid the chaos at the moment, some people are starting to rebuild their life. What struck me the most is to see how they can do it in a very orderly manner. Very beautiful indeed. Normally, after every disaster, all that we can see are pictures of people 'fighting' against one another for the free stuffs. The flood in Pakistan and Bangladesh, rice truck accidents in Malaysia, 2004 tsunami in Indonesia and so on. However, the scenes in Japan is totally different. All we can see is that people are helping each other to cope with the tragedy. More stories could be read here.
20 years of my life, I haven't seen anything like this. After any disaster, all sources that I read from tell me that people struggling for themselves. However, since a week ago, another unfamiliar scene came out from Japan. After seeing this, now it all makes sense that they could recover very fast after the 2nd WW. And is you visited the link above, we can see that the Japanese were able to practically applied the theories that we were thought as a human especially as a Muslim. Be kind to others and not to only think about ourself. It doesn't just stop at individual level but even companies.

We talked a lot about creating Muslim individual, Muslim family, Muslim community and all the hierarchy up to the Muslim governing the world but so far, very little have been shown to the world when it comes to the practicality. The Japanese probably has shown us how we shall behave as a community and if you think closely, the only thing that they lack is Islam itself. If not, they probably would be the best Islamic Nation in the world. So, what are their secret? Care to share your thoughts? Maybe those friends who is in Japan at the moment or who have been there could share their thoughts or anyone who have read something about the Japanese would like to share something? ^___^
Feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section.
Wassalam.

| Post-posting letters to Malaysia. |
It is on my tumblr site.
I decided not to post it here coz it would just be too many entry of a picture with some short description.
My plan was to post a picture of any kind, every day (constantly insyaAllah) unless out of sudden the site was taken down or something technical happen to the site/me.
I got the idea from a guy who capture a picture every day of his life until his death. It is like a memoir or some sort I think. Many have done this. I think it would be very interesting. ^__^
So, you guys can actually contribute (if you are interested) because there is a section where you can submit something to my tumblr page. It does't have to be a picture. It could be jokes etc.
Just click the 'submit' button on the page if you wish to do so.
Only one reminder, please.....be nice okay! ^__^
Maybe in a few years time we can look back and smile at all those pics etc.
That's it for now.
Bye...
Till we meet again

An external force that is trying to penetrate ones comfort zone would probably do better by trying to penetrate a steel wall.
The mindset is much harder than a steel when it comes to changing its form.
Love quotes. they could have both the healing and damaging properties.
And while having paeds lecture last week, something remind me of my childhood. I doodled this during the class (Do not follow this!) Some of my sibling may still remember this monkey that we have back then. I cannot remember if I have a lot of teddies while growing up but i do remember about this red monkey with long arms. The size is more or less of 1L mineral water. I cant recall who gave it to me. Must have been from mama and baba. This was kind of the only teddy that i used to have. Nevertheless, it was quite special because I used it for lots of thing including as a ball!Reminiscing childhood memories always make me smile. Thanks to Allah for protecting me and granted me such a wonderful childhood life.
P/s: i also have tumblr now. ^__^
So, what kind of 'teddy bear' that you guys have during your childhood? You can leave the answer in the comment section. :)

Two little kids lined up for surgery are lying in stretchers outside the operating room.
The first kid leans over and asks, "What are you in here for?"
The second kid says, "I'm in here to get my tonsils out and I'm a little nervous."
The first kid tries to reassure the other and says, "Oh! don't worry. It's very simple. I had that done when I was four. They put you to sleep, and when you wake up they give you lots of Jell-O and ice cream."
The second kid, feeling a little better, then asks, "What are you here for?"
The first kid says, "A circumcision."
The second kid says, "Whoa! I had that done when I was born. I couldn't walk for a year!"

[Musa (Moses)] said: "O my Lord! Open for me my chest (grant me self-confidence, contentment, and boldness) And ease my task for me; And make loose the knot (the defect) from my tongue (i.e. remove the incorrectness from my speech). That they understand my speech.
Tomorrow is the day for the OSCE. The first oral exam after months. Indeed it is my first exam since last August.
May Allah make it easy for us to answer it and guide us for the best insyaAllah.
I noticed something today. Before almost every exam, there will be an entry for this blog. Perhaps my way to ease the tense maybe. ^___^

Takziah buat rakan-rakan dan kenalan di Mesir. Semoga Allah sentiasa memelihara kalian dari segala fitnah dunia dan kerosakan. Gerun pun ada bila membaca khabar-khabar dari sana. Perjuangan perlu diteruskan dan mudah-mudahan diberi ganjaran untuk mereka.
Buat rakyat Mesir sekalian, selamat maju jaya. Mudah-mudahan pemimpin zalim tersebut mendapat balasan sewajarnya.
Khabar terbaru menyatakan dia berlindung di negara haram Israel. Kalau betul, memang sah dia adalah kuda tunggangan selama ini.
Islam pasti akan menang, itu janji Allah. Berjuanglah kalian sehingga titisan darah terakhir. Pastinya balasan terbaik menanti di sana. ALLAHUAKBAR! ALLAHUAKBAR! ALLAHUAKBAR! Walillahilhamd.

Terus
Pandang depan
lupakan kisah silam
masanya barangkali dah tiba
Jauh ke dalam infiniti demi sebuah masa depan.
Bertahun pasti untuk menyembuhkan luka sedalam itu
Apapun semoga Allah kurniakan insan terbaik buat kamu
Pada aku cukuplah seseorang yang disenangi kerana agama dan akhlaknya
Bonus mungkin jika kecantikan dan harta turut bersama apatah lagi jika keluarga turut serta
Aku terus berjalan menusuri denai-denai kecil penuh berduri untuk sampai ke penghujung yang kekal
Ya Rahman Ya Rahim Ya Rabbul 'Alamin
Kurniakanlah aku dengan petunjuk
berikanlah aku sedikit kesempatan
berikanlah aku secebis kelapangan
untuk membuat sebuah keputusan
Semoga bahagia yang didamba itu
kekal hingga ke hari pembalasan
juga terbaik untuk masa hadapan
yang kekal dan pasti
serta abadi

Tadi jumpa patient schizophrenia, sedih dengar cerita hidup dia. Dulu dia kerja computer programmer dan kemudian addicted dengan cannabies. Lepas tu dia hilang segalanya dan diuji pulak dengan penyakit Crohn. Oh, mudah-mudahan Allah jauhkan aku dari dugaan dan cabaran yang tak mampu ditanggung. Kiranya diuji, aku berdoa agar diberi kekuatan oleh Allah SWT untuk menempuh dugaan dan ujian tersebut.
Side effects
1/27/2011 08:20:00 PM
just so that you all med student/ medical practitioners out there to know. it was never a pleasant experience to be on multiple meds at one time (polypharmacy). So be thankful if you have patients that kindly follow your advices and take all the meds as adviced. If they don't, you should also understand it.
until you yourself had to take them (plus suffering from the side effect), you would never understand the feeling. Empathy could just be a word to many until they feel it themself.
ranging from sleep problem to diarrhoea, oh, i wish that i never had to take them in the first place.
One thing for sure, if you have to do it, you just have to do it.
wassalam.
rajin memasak?
1/12/2011 08:01:00 AM
Oho, aku bukanlah seorang yang terkenal dengan rajin memasak ataupun pandai memasak sebab memang selalunya malas pun. Tapi kali ni tiba-tiba pulak timbul semangat memasak. Sebelum-sebelum ni pun, waktu rotation di luar Dublin, takdak la aku memasak pun. Mullingar dulu, hampir setiap malam beli di luar. Kalau tak nasi ayam Balti Dunnes Store, mesti akan beli di kedai sebelah bed and breakfast (B&B) tempat aku dan kawan-kawan tinggal.
So, semalam dengan rajinnya aku masak simple stuff. Ayam goreng KFC dan jugak sayur campur special.
Ayam goreng KFC tu macam biasa la kan, ayam korang basuh bersih-bersih (kalau rajin lagi dengan tepung gandum), bagi yang tak makan kulit macam aku, beli siap-siap ayam yang dah dibuang kulit. Lepas basuh tu, korang celup ayam dalam sebijik telur yang dah dipukul rata, kemudian salutkan dengan tepung KFC atau Radix FC yang korang ada. Sebelum balik sini dulu, aku beli jugak tepung perasa tom yam. Haha. pastu korang goreng la secukup rasa. Then, siap.
Sayur special tu aku buat sebab takmau bazirkan sedikit tepung yang berlebihan dan telur yang dah dipecahkan tadi.
So, apa yang aku buat semalam adalah:
1. masukkan baki tepung tadi dalam telur, pukul rata lagi. Yang sepatutnya dibuat adalah bancuh dulu baki tepung dengan sedikit air panas dan tuang kedalam baki telur tadi.
2. Lepas tu, masukkan sedikit susu cair kedalam bancuhan telur.
3. Teruskan memukul campuran telur.
4. Basuh sayur campur dan masukkan sayur campur dalam telur tersebut.
5. Panaskan sedikit minyak zaitun diatas api dan goreng... tada... siap.

| Drumstick yang sedikit hangit. ^__^ |
Cumanya, apa yang aku buat semalam adalah basuh sayur campur tu dulu dengan air dan panaskan dengan air panas sampai lembut, so nanti kalau goreng, takdak la yang tak masak sangat.
haha, see, mudah kan. Lagi best semalam sebab aku sorang saja yang guna dapur waktu tu, so dapat guna 4 dapur sekaligus dan kebetulan apartment ni ada periuk yang best-best, so dalam 45 min, siap semua termasuk nasik. Goreng ayam yang paling lama sebab aku suka rangup. :D
Itu sahaja dulu perkongsian kali ni. Boleh la cuba ya lepas ni. Kalau rajin lagi, buat la kuah sikit, kalau tak, kicap je...haha
Bye..
