Six very loooooonnnggggg Weeks…..

Huuuuhh…finally back…Its been quite some times since the last “normal” post. What do ya mean by “normal”.Ah yeah…:P….it was just those bunch of lousy postings recently. Not much of an attention accept it just reflects my messiness in life and work. Despite the time that has pasted, I still feel lost in my maze of…..everything….

The last 2 months starting from October certainly has been hectic and busy. The thought of taking a brief relax after ramadhan really didn’t come in reality. Assignments, work and other sort of stuffs quickly got me heavily occupied. Leaving me really overwhealmed when I didn’t prepare myself.

One major thing that I had to do aside my obvious pile of assignments and work was to find a new room for the next year here. It was quite the trouble, having to go here and there for almost 3 weeks just to find the suitable place in terms of neighborhood,facility and of course….price! To get the best of three worlds isn’t an easy task. You’ve definitely got to compromise on or two of our ideal requirement in order to get one quickly. Finally with all the trouble…I finally managed to get one.

I don’t know how it is since I’ve yet to move there on the middle of November. But I do hope it would be much better than my current place. Eventhough its far from campus, at least I’ve got sharemates to say “hello” everyday, just to keep my sanity and sense of collectiveness. The loneliness in my room has been slowly killing me since my first day here. Eventhough I’ve got the luxuries of everything (well…almost:P), its just not enough since I’m…alone..:(. Might sound easy, but in the long run, its bound to cause some mental solitudeness in ourselves.

On the main things, assignments still come and go. The last bunch of assignments for this semester is even getting more horrible for me. Especially when almost all of my classes have finished, which effectively makes us have to study by ourself. With work, everything is back to my normal (and hectic) schedule. But with these heaps of assignments, I’m bound to ask for some time off from work. I hate to do it, but then, study comes first. So, I shouldn’t hesitate to ask for some time, as long as my boss allows me to.

And when I’ve started to immerse myself in an ocean of assignments and work, I remembered….It’s just 6 weeks left till my holiday to Indonesia!!!Aaaahhhhh….just thinking bout that time really hypes me up. But on the other side, it also makes me swayed away by the imaginations on what I would be doing there….Not a good thing really, but I couldn’t help it since the reality of facing assignments and work everday makes me wanna find a place to run from reality (eventhough just in my dreams:P).

Luckily, it’s really not 6 week left. Its practically 2, 5 weeks left. That’s if u only include the assignments. But yeah…these 2 and a half weeks are the most dreaded and horrid since I’ve gotta finish of my assignments in this time limit. After that…I can say I’m prett much free….well…not really…there’s still my work that I’ve gotta do till my departure date.

To be honest, even I wanted to go back home straight after exam finishes. But then, if I do that, I wouldn’t have any pocket money for my stay at home. Therefore, the final 3 weeks here would be the last self tormentation I have to endure…just for the sake of some pocket money. Ask my parents for some??Good idea n a simple thing, but it wouldn’t be if you know that your parents are in a financial hardship. So…I really couldn’t dare to ask for rhem to pay my whole living expenses at home.

My hope is simple, survive the next 2,5 weeks, just for the sake of my assignments. Not just merely surviving it, but also doing my best to finish them off completely. Its really gonna be hard work from here on, so….All I can say to myself is….GOOD LUCK…..GANBATTE….SEMANGAAAATTTT!!!!

Flows of Time

Apa itu waktu…??

Apakah itu masa yang lewat….

Apakah itu detakan jarum jam yang berbunyi…

Apakah itu saat yang selalu kita lewati….

Apakah itu ingatan kita yang terekam….

Apakah itu latar belakang kita yang maju….

However…

Time is more of a weapon…

Time is more of a consciousness….

Time is more of a reminder….

Time is more of a string of lines that connects people….

Time is something that we all treasure….

Time is the spotlight of our life….

That will always show us our current position in the earths and heaven…to show us all our doings from past to future…therefore…do we still have the guts to play and loose our time??

Time cannot be regained….as for it flows like a river….

Even though we consider ourselves to have a second chance….its not like rewriting time…but rather as a new experience for ourself that reminisces the past things that have happened.

Dakara…..never let go of ur flow….

What does it mean to be human…???

What does it mean to be human…???

Yang Kutahu…

Keluhan….Tangis….Amarah….Kesal….Nafsu….Iri….Harga Diri….Lapar….Haus…..

Namun demikian….Aku mendapati bahwa…..to be a human….we also can have….

Intelligence….Honesty….Benevolence….Empathy….Sympathy….and…..LOVE

If so….Then I surely have to Praise ALLAH SWT for ALLAH has given me all these to make me a human….;)

ASS-I-MENT TO BE…..

Kertas kertas berserakan…..

Jurnal jurnal terbuka semua…..

Buku buku menengadahkan masing-masing keatas….

Jari jari memasukkan kata demi kata yang entah ada artinya….

Mata mata terbuka awas menatap kedepan….

Tanggal tanggal semakin dekat ke sebuah lingkaran merah besar….

And so……BENTAR LAGI ASSIGNMENT GW DUE!!!!!

And up till now I’m still stuck in this condition without a clue on what to write……!!!!!!!

Mama bertanya….”tok…dah dapet pacar belom….?”
Teman bertanya…”tok…wis duwe ojob (bahasa malangnya pacar) durung…?”
Bos-ku bertanya ….”kamu sudah beristri kah tok?”
Temen2 ku orang Malaysia bertanya…”anto….sudah punya istri ato girlfriend belom?”

Singkat kata….kok dah pada rebut sih aku punya pacar ato woteper namanya????Apa mama gw dah sgitu kebeletnya pengen punya cucu??Apa temen2 ku sudah sedemikian sedihkah aku tak ada yang menemani hidupku???Apa Bosku sudah ingin liat anak buahnya ini segera merasakan bahagianya berkeluarga….???WHO KNOWS….

Well…I do have my reasons on why I haven’t had or tried to have a girlfriend….wanna know???

1. Punya pacar…aq emoh komitmen yg g jelas, pengennya yg jelas2 aja
2. Engga kuat modal tuk modalin kencan dll
3. aq masih ingin menikmati kebebasanq sebagai seorang jomblo sejati B-)
4. Klo masalah cri jodoh…gw mending yang serius sklian…g pake cara mbulet macam pacaran….
5. Biar bsa mundur teratur klo emang engga minat….:P
6. One more thing…..pacaran banyak mudhratnya rekk:D

Makanya….gw sd skrng masih setia ama status jomblo gw. Apalagi gw emang lom kerja…jadi mending mikir2 yg deket ajalah. Klo target nikah emang dah ada….tapi that’s still a loooooonnnngggg waaaayyyyyyy toooooo goooooo……
Ah udah gitu aja…males gw ngomongin ini….ribet….habis….semua orang pada nanyain itu….kesannya aku ini macam cowok engga laku:P

Subete wa boku no tameni…(Sebuah renungan akhir Ramadhan)

Akhir ramadhan telah tiba…and for me, this month has surely left me with some impressions, some of them are first timers, the others while not, still are worth while to remember and learn the lessons from.

It’s first time for me since I’m now living in Perth, making me experiencing fasting as an adult far from my family and relatives. It might sound lonely, but luckily, I can still feel the the nuance here as the muslim community in my campus is quite big. Hence, daily ramadhan activities can still be done like ifthar and tarawih.
Speaking bout the activities together, it did bring me some impressions. The fact that we muslims can unite together regardless of race, ethnicity and nationality means that we do posses a great potential as Allah SWT best people….if it were to be harnessed in the proper manner.That’s what I did think. Eventhough this kind of thought would still be long to realize, I do believe the seeds of this has been planted. Insya Allah the time will come soon for muslims to unite under one banner….

Through out the activities, I also was able to meet new friends and further strengthen my ties with those I already knew of. It sure is amazing how Ramadhan can bring us together..that’s why…I do hope that the ties of silaturahim would not wane of with the passing of Ramadhan this year. For keeping our ties with others sure brings life merrier and colorful. Not to mention since muslim’s are of one body, that also makes things more beautiful….

As for myself, I did achieve some targets. Finishing the Qur’an and also doing the tarawih each day. Even though I could have done more, I still its quite acceptable, especially if I take in the fact that there were many hurdles and disturbances that I faced during my fasting. Heaps of assignments, extra work hours and an unfir body at the beginning of the ramadhan were the major ones. As for assignments, it really didn’t matter as long I could manage my time properly, which I did do Alhamdulillah. More working hours…well…I kind of find this one as a mistake since I was supposedly gonna ask for this after Ramadhan. However, it accidently had a slip of tongue and ended up asking for more work hours during ramadhan and later.

The result was…sure I got extra money. But then, I ended up exhausting my body way beyond what expected to be able to handle. My body has lost a couple of weight without any comprehensive reason. End thing is…I’m now not feeling quite well as I’m feeling symptoms of flu (again). Well….i did start this ramadhan with an un fit condition. But I certainly do hope not to end it even worst…I guess the only thing I can do is to do more eating and rest as much as possible while trying to do some basic workout…just to keep my body from being stiff due to lack of exercise.

Ah yeah…remember the five blogs I wrote…Well yeah that was one things that I managed to overcome this ramadhan. Even though the conclusion for is still vague, at least I do know where to start to overcome those problems. Yang aq sndri paling suka adalah aq bsa kembali menemukan irama belajar setelah agak terganggu sjak pulkam yg terakhir. Dengan banyaknya tgs (and with a certain someone missing), it certainly able to force me concentrate more on my assignments and finishing it of in the best result that I can try.

As for passion, I believe I’ve gone back to Earth after experiencing some fly high’s this couple of months. It’s a nice thing to find something new, but if you feel that you’ve dreamt to much, that means you’ve gotta go back and taste Earth or else you’ll plunge dying…:P. Eniwei, I surely was able to defragment my mind that was a bit jumbled on which or which wasn’t reality these couple of month and therefore refinding my passion :D.

Secara singkat, Ramadhan ini telah membuat ku tersadar kembali akan realita hidup yang harus kujalani. Walo masih banyak hal yang tentunya harus kuperbaiki, aq sungguh berharap dan berniat, apa-apa yang telah kupelajari dan kujalani selama Ramadhan ini tidak hilang begitu saja dan terus dapat kulaksanakan secara istiqamah. It surely would be a hard thing to do since life is full of hurdles to begin with. But with consistency and prayers, Insya Allah I will find my way. Just remember to start things at a walking pace and speed things up steadily as u advance in life. I’m sure this way, I can better enjoy the fruits of my efforts rather than doing things all in once. Besides…its all for the sake of myself (subete wa boku no tameni…)
