words are easy ...

a word can be interpreted into 1000 meanings. ape-ape lah ^_^

this boredom is killing me. i need to do something, feel useful and act like one normal person with life.

don't get me wrong. I'm happy even if I ended up working as a cleaner or a farmer, as long as I'm not jobless, I'll find a way to have fun while performing my chore. I'll try to be grateful, at least ^_^

but ...

when I've left with nothing to do for the past 2 months, I'm getting cranky (i wish i can get funky but no kidding), irritable, agitated and restless. i may get depressed if i kept doing nothing and continue living in this sedentary lifestyle. my blood pressure may increase, i may suffer from diabetes and get hospitalized for some coronary heart problem :(

ok, too much imaginations for a little girl.

but seriously, when i got nothing to do other than watching korean movies, reading others' blogs and stalking other bloggers, somehow, this time it is the time itself that teaches me lessons.

what i learned as a jobless person:
* i have more time to read newspapers, watching news, being busybody  --->  i learned to become more critical minded (ayat lain bagi perkataan pengutuk tegar semua benda) . may all the information are useful for me and may i be grateful for the time i have now cause i might miss it later when i start working (tapi dasar manusia memang susah nak bersyukur) *sigh*

* i got more chances joining a lot of programs, yeay! ---> bersilaturrahim, berjalan-jalan, got chance to attend my friend's wedding, melawat sini sana, bercuti dengan keluarga besar yang sangat ramai, menyekolah agamakan diri, berbulatan (berbujur, bersegiempat, berlonjong) gumbira. let's grab the opportunity while I still stand the chance ^_^

* I'm a good non-picky eater and am getting fat and obese as a result --> but no worries, 24-hour at home provides me enough time to walk - run -jog -hop on the treadmill. beriya-iya gayanya, macam hamster bersukan ^_^ *seriously*

'mari ke sudut kesihatan; did u know that the healthy body mass index for Asians is between 18.5 and 23.9? jeng jeng jeng. and a person with BMI equals to 24 is considered as overweight. oh nooo. to make thing worse, the target waist circumference should be equal or less than 80cm for woman.' *sudut tamat*

when u're jobless and got nothing to do, somehow you got plenty of time to eat. then, as wise as making time to eat, one should also be wise enough to find the time to burn the unwanted calories and fat ^_^

well babeh, words are easy :P

but it doesn't mean one can simply give up!~

* i do believe i got potential to get depressed --> to prevent it, i must recite and try to understand the holy Koran. well, there's a saying ; an apple a day keeps the doctor away but a page of Koran a day keeps the shaitan away ^_^ shuh shuh

* i do somehow understand why people especially teenagers and youngsters nowadays making silly mistakes such as run away from home, got involved in crimes and committing fornication. they don't choose to run such life but they did choose wrongly

'pemuda jika tidak disibukkan dengan kebaikan, dia akan disibukkan dengan keburukan dan kejahatan. sebagaimana air yang statik, akan menjadi buruk dan tidak elok.' - teori kualiti air;
air yang tak mengalir itu lah air yang paling rendah kualitinya.

Bukankah sama untuk kamu wahai pemuda-pemuda yang tidak bergerak?

yup, when there's nothing beneficial to do, one will think he got plenty of time to waste and let himself to do anything that suits his lust.

tenaga banyak, ye lah. orang muda, darah mendidih menggelegak, semangat lobeh.

tak dapek buek bondo baik, bondo jahat pun jadi la jang, janji dapek den salurkan tenago yang lobeh ni ^_^

see, it's very important for parents, family, neighbors and friends to understand and not to underestimate the power of the youth.

if we didn't help to channel it rightly, we all are equally guilty, ignoring these young people till at one point thinking that there's no one to help, they chose to break the law and commit the crimes in order to gain the grown ups' attention.

memang mereka salah tapi yang lain juga kena bertanggungjawab dengan berdakwah. hidup bukan bermaksud menyendiri ^_^

tapi hidup bererti berkongsi dan berbagi. kerana itu sifat Nabi salah satunya adalah tabligh : menyampaikan


wmwmwm \(^-^)/

perfecto mamacita!

again, blogging is another way to show how jobless you're, ops. it's actually how jobless and boring I am right now \^_^/

there's a link above contained the syarah from an Ustaz (i guess, even if i didn't mention his name, a moment anyone clicks the link and once his face pops up in new tab, every Muslim Tom, Dick and Harry would definitely has no problem at all to recall his name together with his last name *betapa famous -nya beliau kalah celebrity*

I'm glad he still keeps the sunnah alive, wearing jubah and serban every time he appears on Malaysian tv.

http://youtu.be/6mcRohNNAOQ

heip heip, don't get me wrong, buddy ^_^ I'm not saying those who show up on tv wearing modern contemporary menswear are against the tradition of Muhammad pbuh ^_^ nope nope, there's nothing such. just an 'alim ( Intelligent , Learned man) once told me that those who run a da'wah (to invite, to offer to share) are better to cling to the tradition of the prophet (to the sunnah) as his tradition is like a light which will brighten the darkness.

ok, ayat mengada-ngada, panjang lebar tapi tak dapat difahami, baiklah, maksud saya sunnah itu umpama cahaya yang menerangi kesesatan, nak berdakwah, nak ajak orang buat baik, sebaiknya kena betul-betul ikut cara nabi, barulah dengan izin Allah orang yang diajak mudah terima da'wah atau ajakan kita ^_^

One of the scholars of the past, Imam Malik, said: “The Sunnah is like the ark of Noah. Whoever embarks upon it achieves salvation and whoever rejects it, is drowned”    

nowadays hot top pop issue other than politics, disasters, wars, terrorism and business is something known as hijab. what, you didn't want to believe? do believe it mister and miss even this is not Ripley's believe it or not ^_^

tak nak percaya jugak? degil ek, cuba ekau tengok jang berapo orang jadi kayo, terkonal lagi ha sobab tudung?

we have our YouTube star and blogger hanaTajima, our own local artists @ hijab stylists such as Yuna, Heliza, Najwa Latif (I don't remember her name at first, I keep on guessing but still her name didn't cross my mind, but no worries, Google is there to help, do type mukabuku and taraaa, her name is on top of the list) ^_^, we also have a lot of virtual stores, online shop selling variety of hijab, shawls and scarfs and not to forget hijab boutiques and outlet along peninsular Malaysia and the east coast.

supply and demand theory, among 4 basic laws is;

'If demand increases and supply remains unchanged, then it leads to higher equilibrium price and higher quantity.'

> products, > choices with higher or greater price, sometimes the shorter the hijab the more expensive it is.

it's good to know there are lots of options but is the hijab worth the money?

how do one suppose to know?

sebab tulah ada link di atas dan banyak lagi syarah dari ustaz-ustaz dan orang 'alim (yang lain-lain sila cari sendiri ^_^).

ok mari try to summarize it even though it is not perfectly:

yang dinamakan memakai tudung should fulfill these criteria before anyone on earth can claim any piece of cloth as hijab ^_^ ...  or even put a brand on it ;

1) bagi ada terjuntai sikit kain tudung tu kat depan supaya bila ada angin bayu membawa tudungku, maka tidaklah nampak dada 

2) selindung - nope nope dear, jangan transparent please. ini tudung, bukan sheer curtain rumah saya. pastikan tidak jarang dan tolong kasi longgaq na, sekali lagi, ini tudung, bukan legging ^_^ pastikan saya tutup leher,jangn ketat sampai nampak leher, telinga, sanggul (tolong jangan bagi nampak bonggol unta, kerana anda manusia, bukan unta ^_^) 

3) atas dada, bukan leher je tutup sipi-sipi tapi dada terbuka @ tudung {x} ≠ leher < x < dada, heip heip jangan masuk-masukkan tudung dalam baju nanti kena laknat. 

4) panjang tudung= atas pusat dan bawah dada, tudung {x} = dada < x < pusat - saya jangan kedekut-kedekut, Malaysia ada banyak kedai menjual kain tudung, panjangkanlah tudung saya dengan panjang yang sebenar

yep, i have to go checking my hijab too, jangan banyak cakap tapi tak buat ^_^

wmwmwm

don't make a fuss buddy ^_^

since I'm officially a full-time domestic engineer (happy mode) or to cut it short - I'm jobless (a-bit-down mode ), it gives me  a lot of twists and a blend of mixed feelings. happy - i enjoy it, freedom- oh, for heaven's sake, i enjoy it too, a bit too much, perhaps. boredom - oh, it comes unpredictably, alternating between a period of excitement and the realization that know i have nothing in my tiny little pocket. ok, make it simple - I'm broke

yes, I'm broke (sigh) but I'm at home, it's such an advantage since i got full access to internet and I tried to catch up (not so hard) to whatever in heaven's name happened in Malaysia.

lets start with the 1st leg Australasia tour cancellation. wow, a lot of noises. a lot of interferes. everyone wants to speak up his mind.

mind saya sangat brilliant, dengarlah alasan dan hujah-hujah saya, minda mereka berkata.

well, i don't know about it, how true it is, I'm not mind-reader neither got anything to do with smart reader :P

kalau semua nak bercakap, siapa pulak yang nak mendengar?

sayang, we all know even it's not totally true but at least Malaysia is trying her best to show the world that she is a Muslim country. respect la sikit. no no, i understand Miss Badu can accept the cancellation, i know she a bit upset but she at least learned something about the sensitivity and don't play play with it :)

one can name it anything - beauty of art, the art of fashion, the travel and living (ok, this one is mengarut) but this one - "Art is often misunderstood in the realm of religion." is a total crap. have u ever heard that art is for those who has high appreciation in nature and sensitive to his surrounding? nope? ok, i made it up.

Britannica Online defines art as "the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others." - can be shared with others, that's the keyword. if one can't share it due to it's nature that clearly against the culture and one's faith, it's best for one not to pull the trigger.

there are lots of comments, critics regarding the above issues. orang yang kena boleh terima, yang lain tak ada kena-mengena pulak yang terlebih bicara. don't do that people. please look for the reason behind it before getting too excited in condemning others :)

i love certain comments, in my opinion they are sensible and not letting their emotion get the best of them. cool mak cik, pak cik. insya Allah tak ada apa-apa setakat tak pi ke Miss Badu's concert  ^_^ :

'I don't remember anybody forcing Ms Badu to tattoo the name of Allah on her body. Nice to see a celebrity made aware of the consequences of using people's symbols of faith as fashion items.' - by music lover.  i like this one. comment pilihan minggu ini :)

'Eryka Badu should focus on her ability to resolve. As someone who is interested in performing abroad she should have a higher level of sensitivity and awareness. Even as performers, we as black people should work to both understand and respect different cultures. As someone living and working in the Middle East, tattoos of any nature are normally not welcomed! Do research, learn about the regions you intend to travel to and make a greater effort to move forward with a greater sense of global awareness.' by Carole Faye - this too is my favorite :)

'I would suggest that Jabatan Agama Islam in Malaysia should check all foreigners coming to Malaysia to not only be stripped naked for tattoos, all females checked that their virginity are still intact, all females coming unaccompanied by male relatives or husband should not be allowed into Malaysia. Or else our Malaysian Malays (females especially) will immediately and without the power to think for themselves imitate those foreigners and that would not be good for Malaysia and Muslims as a whole. As the Malays Muslims are easily led astray and weak minded ...' - come on, this one is sarcastic. please, don't overdo it. apabila anda terlalu emo ketika typing, u will do lots of typing errors yang terpaksa dibetulkan before I can post my blog entry ^_^

and this comment will answer the above one, 
'This is a matter of religion. I think we should leave it to that. It is offensive to all Muslims.
I am not so sure about your thought, but I do recalled few years back that Christians condemn madonna for dressing like a nun and for some artist to use cross during their concert.
Just leave it to Muslims to decide whether it is offensive.' - by Bru Tall

and the comments go on and on sampai semua yang emo berpuas hati dengan amukan mereka. it's classic evidence on how globalization affects the world in every region, in every country, in a bad way. well, everything has side-effect. atas nama globalisasi semua benda mudah untuk diterima, tanpa kadang seseorang itu sedar yang mereka adalah orang timur yang kaya adat, budi bahasa dan beragama.

babe, i can guarantee you that most of the comments came from Malaysian people who think there are western people trapped in easterner's body. that's why they rebel loudly. too loudly till at one point, we just miss their points ^_^ (just like the transsexual issue, u know; a girl trapped in boy's body, that's why they undergo sex reassignment surgery)

wmwmwm @_@

pernahkah anda merasakan customer is always right?

nowadays in Malaysia, i am almost producing high-pitch whining noise every here and there every single time i have to deal with people.

I'm not a spoil brat. but as a customer, as a consumer, as a buyer, as a user and as a client i could tell that the customer service in Malaysia is not at a level that should be proud of.

be it in government of private sectors.
buka kedai . franchise . makan gaji .

lets take a look at a few examples:

first, when a person enters a restaurant what would happen to him? does he get nice greeting , is someone politely handing over the menu and patiently waiting for the customer, choosing their meals?

sudah tentulah semua orang suka pada layanan yang baik, tak kira sama ada dia seorang yang baik budi atau tidak. itu bukan masalah tapi bermasalah andai yang melayan dan mengambil pesanan , tidak pandai mengambil hati as well.

adakah semua orang terlupa rule no 1 in business? - customer's always right and no.2 always remember rule no.1

oh no oh no, sekiranya anda seorang yang membuka business makanan, tak perlulah anda menyediakan red carpet dan segala macam mak nenek service ala-ala Alvear Palace. tapi cukup dengan slogan budi bahasa budaya kita.

apa itu budi bahasa budaya kita?
cakap dengan sopan
senyum memanjang
selalu jadi pendengar yang baik dengan pesanan yang pelanggan pilih
beralah pada customer yang kurang sabar dan kurang budi pekerti  
say the magic words , thank you and sorry , frequently and regularly

sibuk, penat bukannya alasan. kalau tak larat berhenti sahaja. ini negara democratic. no one gets shot because he wants to quit his job.

kalau malas mahu berlatih bertatih menjaga public relation, silakan beralih ke bidang yang tidak memerlukan banyak interpersonal communication. semua benda ada solution. jangan marahkan nyamuk kelambu dibakar. jangan kerana sebenarnya tak nak kerja tapi terpaksa kerja kerana mak suruh atau tengah kumpul duit nak beli benda, main redah pilih kerja apa tapi tak sesuai hati, kemudian akhirnya pelanggan yang jadi mangsa.

pernah dengar kalau menjaga anak buah dalam PR kena jaga macam mak menjaga anak. emak yang baik akan kenal baik buruk perangai anaknya dan akan segera menegur. bukan backing pekerja yang terang-terang kurang prihatin akan isu customer service.

kedai makan, kedai baju, kedai telefon, kedai buku, pejabat kerajaan, kerja swasta --> semua berusaha mencari rezeki walaupun tak suka dengan pekerjaan tapi tidak berbudi bahasa bukanlah budaya kita, orang timur.

kerja adalah ibadah, semua sibuk nak negara Islam, negara kebajikan tapi untuk melaluinya seorang pandai pernah berkata, negara itu baik bukan dengan kuasa tapi dengan akhlak dan tingkahlaku. vote sahaja tidak akan menentukan hala tuju sesuatu negara, tapi jatuh bangun negara itu akan ditentukan dari sikap rakyatnya.

bersikaplah dengan sikap seorang muslim yang sebenar. tiada apa yang nak dimalukan dengan sikap baik dan mengikut al Quran sunnah. dapat pahala, itu matlamat sebenar setiap amal kerana kalau nak bercakap tentang rezeki semua dah ditulis dan malaikat mikail sudah ada untuk bertugas. we just do our job, we never know when we're going to stop

selamat beramal dalam bekerja ^_^
