Random Thought

Assalamualaikum

Guess this is still not too late for me to wish my Muslims brethren out there a "Taqabballahu Minna Waminkum Minna Ya Kareem"
May Allah accepts the good deeds of us and you

The Eid for this year is not much merrier than what it used to be. Just not because of any lacking in preparation but my dad had been down with sickness since the third day of Raya and from there on -  we had been going to hospital regularly until the sixth day of Raya. I'd been worried about him since my dad rarely got sick

Alhamdulillah, since then he was okay and recovering. May Allah raised the sickness from him and wished that my dad would get better soon

On the other note - I've been back in uni. since yesterday and yes - tomorrow I will start getting to "visit" uni. library frequently - meaning to say the exam just in few weeks ahead *smh*.

So, again as I said this post is blatantly about my random thought.
So, sorry for that kiddos.




Regards,
Nik

Senior Year in UTP

Assalamualaikum

Hello UTP once again.
All praise to Allah for giving me an opportunity to have my internship at Kompleks Operasi Petronas (KOP), Kertih for 7 months. It was such a pleasure to be in PM-9 fraternity in PPD-P Department. Indeed, it was such an experience working with operation team that handling with old platforms  and it was tough!

Done with intership.
Now, I can proudly say that I am in Senior Year in UTP. Weehoo!
One more semester to go and inshaAllah by the end of this year - I'll be graduating with an honor of bachelor in civil engineering majoring in Offshore Structures and Coastal Engineering.
Road to graduation people!

7 months leaving uni was quite a time. I have seen some developments around Seri Iskandar then.
1. Tesco mart is available - in which before this the closest one was at Station 18, Pangkalan. Took you almost 30 mins drive to there.
2. Talking about Pangkalan also, a new AEON Mall also was up. So another option rather than going to Ipoh Kinta City for AEON

Back in uni with my coursemates again. We have  prepared the list for road to graduation

So, once we come back to UTP, we have had our first gathering at Teluk Batik. Up until now, there are so many plans into list that goes on and on. Starting with gathering at Teluk Batik, a visit to Saufi' house (one of our course mates who have had involved in accident during his internship, now he is regaining strength to memorize, to start walking, to be back as normal again), Satay Bota's gathering, Grand Annual Dinner, Durian-Durian and many more to come in list. I find it this is the way for me and my friends to cherish our final year and soon these are the memories that we can hold and reminisce them back when all of us take different paths and careers. There is nothing to be sad of, because what come to my understanding is that, when there is a start, there is should be an end. And for every ending point that we just reach, it is basically just a new starting point for us to continue living perhaps with another people around, with new environment and experience. That is how I define LIFE. It's a journey.

1st event: Teluk Batik's Gathering. (June 1st/2012)

Is this what I am really looking for afterall?

ASSALAMUALAIKUM WBT :)

20th April, there is a human was born with the sole purpose of bringing people to revert back to Tawheed, he was our Holy Prophet, Muhammad SAW. In the same month, I was born to a loving family, in a suburb area somewhere in Kelantan. Erik Erikson ( the Freudian psychologist), theorized that now I'm 22, I'm moving out of the 5th phase of life he termed 'Identity Vs Role Confusion'. I never did have a full idea on what he meant, but well, I guess what he tried to say is that by now, I'm supposed to have my own real identity, or else I will end up having confusion about my roles in life!

Have I've found my identity?

Guess so...There is some days in the past, I can say that I spent my lifetime pondering upon questions of identity. I was more concerned about what I appear to be in the eyes of the others instead of what I real;y feel I am. In the words of Natasha Beddingfield: " The slightest remark would embark me on a journey of self-doubt". I can still remember how I used to get angry, hurt, tell me no, or give me some other form of disapproval. But I did learn a lot from those days, I gave myself a break. I reminded myself that even in a landslide election victory in which candidate secures 55% of the vote, he/she is left with 45% of the population that wishes someone else were the winner. Pretty humbling, is it?

The point is: This is my life. It's a brief candle. I won't spend  it trying to be what other people want me to be. The question I should be asking right now is: " Am I who I wanna be?"
