Going on with my life

-

Okay. Finally I have decided to start blogging. Despite my various attempts before, I hope this will be my real blog and I hope I really can stick on this blog since I'm quite prone to leave things done halfway cause I just eventually lose my interest. Anyway, I'm sure that won't happen anymore cause I really need this blog to improve my English. I hope that I'll get support from other active bloggers to continue what I'm doing.

Oh yeah.. why did I put a picture of a road on this post?? Well, maybe it has something to do with my driving lesson yesterday with my dad. Actually, I'm kind of excited to drive a car since I love so much playing racing car games in the computer.But I never thought that I would actually do it in real life.At least not at this age.So when Ayah suddenly called me after Zohor prayer to get in the car, I was dumbstruck.Me? Driving a car? haha. Let's just see.

Okay. So it went quite well. And I enjoyed myself so much!! Actually it was quite easy. Just like controlling a remote control car. Several times Ayah have to remind me, 'Atin,slow la sikit!', cause I drive quite fast. Confidently. Basically I just learned to drive straight, turn right and left, reverse, turn back and stuff like that. But my confidence failed when I see another vehicle on the T-junction. It was a lorry. As usual my dad would remind me to press the brake slowly when reaching a junction. I did that but he kept repeating, 'Brake, Atin, Brake!', so I guess my feet automatically pressed the other pedal instead of break pedal due to the nervous reaction. And the result is we almost hit the lorry but I finaly pressed the brake hard and saved ourselves from being hit. Alhamdulillah. Fuh, what a relief but the Indian guy who was driving the lorry just stared at us like crazy. Sorry anneh.

So that's what happened. Luckily, Ayah understood and asked me to continue driving across the block until I got dizzy and call it off. Overall, driving was fun, but I dunno how to manage the car on a busy road. But life has to go on. And we have to face our fear and cannot just abandon it beacause we THINK we can't do it. Practice makes perfect. I guess I'm looking forward to the next lesson whenever my dad is free next time. Thank you, Ayah.

I guess my other friends are also going through this challenging time. Keep up everyone! So, eventhough we have finished learning at school, there are so much more things to learn to prepare ourselves for the outside world. Anyway, I would like to thank all my teachers that are always working hard to give us the best, especially my teachers at SK Taman Jasmin and of course SMKA Maahad Hamidiah! You all deserve the greatest gratitude from all of us, your students.

The message in a bottle

No one truly knows who they are, he sighs. The glass bottle does not know its own contents. It has no idea whether it is a vessel for the most delicious apple cider, a lovingly crafted wine, or a bitter poison. People are the same. Yet, like the bottle, we are transparent. We can't see ourselves the way others see us. How do you see me, she asked. You are a bottle floating out at sea, he says. One that contains a very important message. It may never reach its recipient, but as long as there is someone waiting, it will always have purpose. Will you wait for mine? I will, he promised. I will look for you every time I stand at the edge of the ocean.  - Taken from Lullabies , by Lang Leav  It's been such a while huh. Seems like the hectic schedule somehow has blocked out my creative juice from flowing (if any! hehe) I hope everybody else is doing well insyaAllah, taking into account the fact that we have encountered a new book ...

The goodness worth holding on to

google "I can't do this, Sam." "I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad has happened? But in the end,  it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folks in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something." "What are we holding on to, Sam?" " That there's some good in this world, Mr. ...

The Strength Within Us (The Untold Story)

-
Once upon a time, a little girl was born into this messy world. She has a free soul, a spirited laugh and feature. She saw the world she lives in as a land of adventure. Everything moves too quickly for her, so she often runs to catch up. In fact, she loves running. She loves the wind when she runs, and she loves to feel the sweat running along her skin as it cools her down. And she realized that there are too much beauty in this world that her eyes can behold. She loves watching others. She has this sensitive gaze that can penetrate whatever she sees through her heart. It has always been that way. She laughs when she is happy, and cries when she sees sadness in others. But she was wrong, because she thought everybody else understood. She didn't know that living in this world has such rules; That when others say you cannot, then you should stay away - however hard you want something. That it is silly when you wear your heart on your sleeves, and show your affection and e...
