Engineer-to-be, insyaAllah :)

Firstly, mintak maaf sangaaaat dear Bloggie sebab lama tak update. Haih, cuti 2 minggu tapi seriously takde mood untuk tulis apa-apa. Mula-mula sebenarnya aku rasa berat hati dan kurang inspirasi untuk berkongsi buat seketika, jadi lepas ambil masa sikit kumpulkan balik fokus untuk semester baru akhirnya otak dah clear. Lepas buat editing sikit kat Bloggie ni, baru datang mood. Jadi sekarang aku boleh menulis (atau menaip), sebagai aku :) hehe

Kata-kata penuh hikmah yang aku pernah kutip dulu,

"Ibarat kejadian Tuhan, siang dan malam silih berganti. Begitulah juga keadaan kita yang hidup ni, kadang-kadang muram tapi kemudiannya kembali gembira. Ya, mudah-mudahan ketika diri ini diselubungi kegelapan, kita semua mampu cari balik petunjuk dan cahaya Tuhan"

Tadi masa kelas, terdengar lah beberapa luahan hati sahabat-sahabat yang terbeban dengan subjek Engineering yang sememangnya tough. Ye la, minat kita kat bende lain tapi terpaksa juga teruskan belajar engineering kerana keluarga. Ataupun mungkin pada awalnya kita rasa course ni okay, blur sikit-sikit takpe la. Lambat laun, tahap ke'blur'an meningkat sampai la kita rasa oh no..

Kebetulan pulak, lecturer sentuh pasal passion tadi. "You got to have passion in what you study, don't do it because someone wants you to. Find your passion."


Ohh, jangan menangis adik. I know how you are feeling, because I used to feel the same way 


Yeah, I used to but not anymore. Dulu aku memang takde feeling dengan subjek-subjek engineering ni. Orang kata masuk angin keluar asap haha. Lain la kalau buku philosophy macam Art of War ke, buku tafsir, buku Stephen Covey, Dale Carnegie, ataupun novel Dan Brown. Yang tu memang boleh hayati la sedalam-dalamnya.


Quote daripada 'The Lost Symbol' tulisan Dan Brown:
" to live in the world without becoming aware of the meaning of the world is like wandering about in a great library without touching the books."


Mungkin bidang tu yang aku betul-betul minat, tapi tak bermakna aku tak mampu nak hadapi Engineering. And guess what, Izzah Anwar pun ada minat yang mendalam terhadap falsafah perang dan politik tapi dia masih boleh tamatkan pengajian Sarjana Muda dalam Electrical and Electronic Engineering di UNITEN sebagai salah seorang pelajar terbaik, dan kemudiannya meneruskan Sarjana dalam Hubungan Antarabangsa di Washington. Hebat kan? :)

Itulah yang dimaksudkan dengan minat sebagai pembakar semangat, insyaAllah.

Jadi sama-samalah kita genggam betul-betul passion tu dalam hati, dan carilah siapa diri kita untuk kita tahu kat penjuru mana yang kita bakal sumbangkan nanti. By the way, aku pun masih mencari.

Pesanan ni boleh jugak diaplikasi buat adik-adik yang masih membuat keputusan untuk pilih jurusan ke Universiti. All the best! :)

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...
