Positive Thinking

Assalamu'alaikum w.b.t.

I wish all of you are in the best health and high islamic esteem ;) . Time run so fast! and I am now in my 8th week attending English class in CELPAD. Alhamdulillah, I've learn more, so many mistakes and errors everywhere~ and I will improve it before the exam begins.
Today, I wanna share what I have done for my assignment during week 6th. Madam just graded it, ermm..not so good but I'm satisfied with the comments :)

The assignment was about listening to a song by Selena Gomez entitle 'Who says'. Sincerely, it was my first time knowing and listening to that song. Pretty good and I like it. I am not going to attach the song here because I am really sure that everyone can easily googling it ;) . But, I'll share the lyrics and also my opinions about it.

------------------------------------------------------
I wouldn't wanna be anybody else, hey
You made me insecure, to me I wasn't good enough
But who are you to judge
When you're a diamond in the rough

I'm sure you got some things
You'd like to change about yourself
But when it comes to me
I wouldn't want to be anybody else

I'm no beauty queen, I'm just beautiful me
You got every right to a beautiful life, come on

Who says, who says you're not perfect
who says you're not worth it
who says you're the only one that's hurting
Trust me that's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty
who says you're not beautiful, who says?

It's such a funny thing
How nothing's funny when it's you
You tell 'em what you mean
But they keep whitin' out the truth

It's like the work of art
That never get to see the light
Keep you beneath the stars
Won't let you touch the sky

I'm no beauty queen, I'm just beautiful me
You got every right to a beautiful life, come on

who says you're not star potential
who says you're not presidential
who says you can't be in movies
Listen to me, listen to me

who says you don't pass the test
who says you can't be the best
who said, who said?
would you tell me who said that, yeah
who said
--------------------------------------------

1) The song 'Who says' by Selena Gomez is mainly about positive thinking. Believe in yourself that you are also the best and perfect one. After listening that song, I felt more motivated and realized that actually every one is Unique and have their own potential. Be yourself in whatever situation you will face. Take every criticism as the precious lesson and improve to be the best.

2) Yes, I like that song smile And yes, for sure there are other songs which help to motivate me when I am down. They are song by Dima Bilan (Believe Me) and one more is InshaAllah by Maher Zain.

3) Yes, I agree that people can be successful when they only think positively about themselves.

4)

People can be successful when they only think positively about themselves. When they have positive thinking, automatically it will be a good cure to their mental and physical. Every difficulty in their life, they can face it wisely and be patient to solve any problems. They believe that every obstacles and failures are as a lesson for them to learn more about real life. In comparison, people who always think negative will feel bad and depressed. With that, they cannot enjoy and manage their life well. In addition, negative thinking’s person will fail in whatever they done. As a conclusion, we should avoid to just look at negative side of ours, but try to improve the positive side to make it more significant.

Madam : 89%


p/s : BEWARE (the straight line means, the sentence or word is not correct) I'll ask madam about it ;p
p/s : well, thinking positive is essential for our psychology and physical health ;)

Sincere and Love

Last class with Mr. I, I was asked by him one interesting question.

'What is the most sincere thing you have done in your life?'

I was startled. Speechless for a while, try to find one suitable and logic answer. I didn't know why, but that question make me felt guilty. I didn't know, or even cannot think about anything I have done is considered as 'sincere'. It doesn't mean that , I haven't had a sincere heart in doing something, but it more than I didn't know about it. How can one action or behavior is considered 'sincere'?. How to grade it?

Then, my teacher explain more. When you feel like you doesn't regret or rely on any reward after doing something good, it is Sincere. And, I deeply thought about that. One by one the scene of memory appeared in my mind. Well, finally I knew that, actually I've done it.

Some one once said, Love the work that you have to do, with that you will be happy working on it. Love the course which destined to you, then you will be happy studying and struggle to success. Hopefully, my love to Optometry will last forever and i'll be happy to be an optometrist soon! ;)

------------------------------
Assignment for this week (7th week) was writing an essay. For me, the question was quite tough and difficult. It was about Agriculture Sector in development of country. I am so worried on how to write that essay, I felt like I didn't have any idea about it. So stressed!. Then, I googling, and read more, and more to get some information about it. Finally, on the last date, I manage to write it well. Alhamdulillah, successfully submitted but not graded yet! I wish..the ranking will go up. ^-^

Thank you for that someone, who keep motivated me to write again, and again ;)

Ya Lathiff

Malam yang redup lagi nyaman. Malam yang penuh dengan hamparan bintang-bintang di angkasa raya. Bibirku merekah senyum melihat keindahan malam yang sunyi lagi mendamaikan.

Tiba-tiba, telinga menangkap pada satu suara yang menggetarkan jiwa. Jantung melompat-lompat bagai mahu keluar berlarian. AHH! tidurku terganggu lagi...! :'(

Ya Allah,
seandainya ujian sekecil ini adalah demi menguji sabar sekeping hati,
sabarkanlah hatiku, sesabar sabarnya..

Aku bimbang,
andai ledakan amarahku akan meletus..
dan lebih akan melukai yang lain..

Kerana,
hatiku sendiri pun, aku takut untuk disakiti!

Ya Lathiff..
[Allah SWT Yang Maha Lemah Lembut, mendorong seseorang selalu bersikap halus kepada orang lain dan prihatin dengan perasaan oang lain]

My Little Princess :)

Last Thursday, Madam asked us to bring any picture to her class. So, I brought one. The picture which always with me, in my diary. For the first half an hour in the class, Madam taught us about 'conditional (If)' . Conditional is one of the grammar rule in English. Interesting. I though there are nothing else we have to do after that, but it was just a dream~. Madam gave an order to us to write a poem using Conditional regarding to our picture. Gosh! so hard and tough. We are given 20 minutes to write up a poem. And, here is mine ;). Not so nice but, quite good for the first timer like me :D. Have fun!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

My Little Princess :)

You are gentle, soft like the falling flower petals,
You are calm, untouched like a droplet of water,
You are my little princess..

If hundred years passing by without you,
My strength will gone,
If the day are getting hard for me,
Your beautiful smile bright me up..

If you cry every night,
That crying voice is like my melody,
If I can hold your hand now,
I will held it tightly in my hand..

If I had hugged you that gloomy day,
I would never felt this pain anymore..

Now, you are far away,
No crying, no giggling,
Just silent and sorrow..

If I had the power to turn back,
I would never leave you..

Because,
You are the only princess I have..

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

p/s - This is the original poem without any correction ;)
- I feel like, writing a poem is so relax and wonderful!
- My little princess, is my cute niece ^^ but, my classmate said, she is just like me :D

kita 'serumpun' ?

Assalamu'alaikum w.b.t.

Alhamdulillah, akhirnya tercipta juga ruang untuk menulis pada hari ini setelah rasanya sudah lama tidak menitipkan kata. Sebetulnya memang sudah menanam azam untuk lebih kerap mencoret di sini, berkongsi perjalanan sebuah kehidupan, yang 'baru', bertukar menjadi identiti yang serba baru dan 'muda' :p.

Pada minggu lepas, aku sempat menghadirkan diri dalam satu program yang pada hemat ini amat mengujakan dan istimewa sekali. SERUMPUN 2011, (Seminar Penulisan Putra Putri Nusantara) sempena Convest '11 IIUM. Lebih hebat lagi apabila pengisian semuanya dari penulis-penulis terkemuka Indonesia dan Malaysia. Ustaz Habib yang terkenal dengan KCB, Mbak Asma Nadia yang sebelum ini langsung tidak kedengaran namanya tetapi merupakan penulis muda yang hebat dan kental. Mbak Helvi yang sangat bersemangat waja, Ustaz Alwi yang sungguh bersahaja dan tenang wajahnya serta Saudari Fatimah Syarha yang lembut tapi tegas petah bicaranya. Awesome!

SERUMPUN menbawakan tema "Melangitkan karya, Membumikan cinta'. Ya, karya dan tulisan itu ibarat harta yang tiada nilainya untuk ditukar ganti. Karya yang suci lagi murni datangnya dari bisikan hati yang benar-benar tulus ingin menggapai Redha Illahi. Dengan buku-buku yang dihasilkan, segala cinta dan kasih pasti akan dapat disebarkan dan diresapi ke dalam hati budiman-budiman yang membacanya. Sungguh indah cinta itu tersebar, segalanya dicurah dari hati untuk sampai ke hati. Pastinya sebaran itu adalah 'dakwah' untuk mengajak insan di luar sana ke arah mencari mati yang sempurna. Indah bukan?.

Mereka menyuntik semangat putra-putri untuk menulis, mereka berkongsi segala pengalaman dan rasa, mereka bercerita sehingga mampu menyebakkan jiwa. Dapat ku rasakan, liku hidup setiap penulis itu punya cerita masing-masing, yang mana tulisan mereka adalah kisah hidup mereka. Segalanya dicatat untuk pedoman generasi mendatang. Masih aku ingat, satu sahaja petua untuk mula menulis. "Ambil pena, dan tulis, tulis, tulis, dan teruskan menulis hingga akhirnya.." Senang rupanya, tetapi tidak semudah itu kan?.
Senang atau sukar, segalanya bergantung kepada diri, sama ada mahu atau tidak mahu. No excuse!

Maka, penulis atau bakal penulis di luar sana, mungkin masanya sudah tiba untuk lebih serius dalam berkarya, jadikan tulisan itu 'mahal nilainya'. Namun harus ingat, 'you are what are you write' dan 'segala yang ditulis itu, baik atau buruk akan kekal hingga akhirnya, walaupun jasadmu tiada lagi didunia ini' (pesanan-pesanan dari mereka). Moga, ingatan dan pesanan itu dalam menjadi landasan buat kita dalam berkarya. InsyaAllah.

'satu buku sebelum mati!' --> janji kami (para peserta) sebelum menamatkan seminar. Mampukah atau tertunaikah janji itu? Semoga Allah permudahkan. Dan, pastinya janji itu akan menjadi salah satu faktor untuk terus menekan 'keyboard' ini! ;) semoga bermanfaat.
