Devotion and Allah Is Going To Take Care Of Me

Salam Aidiladha n Eid Mubarak!!!

I've been celebrating 2 Eidul Adha and 2 Eidul Fitr away from home.

That means I've gone without the usual serunding daging, rendang daging and ketupat daun palas for 4 times already.

This year's Aidil Adha started off at 630 am for me.

I had last night fish crackers and milk di pagi raya!

Then off to the faculty and wrote immunology test at 7.30 am.

We got off earlier and went to Medium for Eidul Adha prayer.

It's good to see everyone after 2 months not seeing each other and to see new additions to the community.

We did takbeer.

I don't know which version is it but I totally miss the takbir version back home.

The melancholic verses talking about Allah greatness.

Humza lead the prayer and delivered qhutbah afterwards in English and the doctor delivered another qhutbah in Arabic.

Humza talked about doing what is ordered by God, what is asked by Muhammad SAW.

The qhutbah by him was so touching that I had to hold back my tears.

I don't know about others.

How can u not be touched when he said, when Hajar was left with little Ismail in the middle of nowhere under the scorching sun with no water whatsoever and just a bunch of tamar (correct me pls, if I'm wrong), she asked Ibrahim AS is this Allah's order?

And when Ibrahim said yes, she said "If then, I know, Allah is going to take care of us"

I've never realise this before.

When u are in the most critical times or in any times of your life and death and the life after, u are always being watched over, and only if u know, Allah is taking care of you, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Isn't that sweet?

I'm a sensitive person.

I bet it's not a common knowledge because I always put up straight faces when I'm hurt, when I'm scolded etc.

The last presentation is saved for next time because Prof Holecek said "because some of you are so devoted...blablabla"

boleh saya ambil hati dgn ayat itu?

I'm sorry but how can I not excuse myself from the schedule when Allah is taking care of me and He said today is a day for celebration and reminescence?

We are asking for early leave because we want to go for prayer.

It's nothing compared to making morning classes optional annually CONSIDERING people who are knocked out by alcohol from last evening ball.

But to look at the remark positively, thank you for the compliment.

We are devoted.

=p

Ahoj

Been infected with lazy syndromes these few days.

Lazy to study.

Lazy to drop comments on people's blogs.

And lazy to update this blog (lap habuk kt ceruk2 blog)

Basically, life have been pretty dull.

I have a feeling that this school year would be a dull one.

It started off with unceromonious celebration of Eid (my housemates and me overslept and had our Eid delicacies in our PJs.we missed this year's Eid prayer =[ )

Then, I started school with a broken arm and missed practically all blood drawing sessions in Physiology labs.

I even missed the chance to participate in recent Igames in Olomouc.

Pstt, however on a brighter note, I tried squash with only a hand and it was so refreshing

Squash is great!

Recapping the Igames, I feel it was too short and not as happening as the previous year.

However, I really enjoyed the evening session.

Olomouc did a great job.

It would be good if we can camp a little longer in Olomouc and compete till we drop.

My hosts were very welcoming and I ended up staying in the same place with Kak Ejai and Kirin.

In high school, it never cross my mind that I would sat across Kak Ejai eating filet-o-fish.

Thanks girls for taking me to McD.

I know I was a bit jakun.

U can't blame me, I'd never been to McD in Czech , so how am I supposed to know that they don't have free ketchup and peppers?hahahaha

I forgive u 2 for talking bout my jakuness when I was spread eagle, deeply engrossed in dreamland.

In all the dullness of this school year, I've learnt perhaps too many things.

When I was scared and unsure during my check ups, there were random people pop out from nowhere, helping me despite my limited Czech, talked with me when I have no one to talk to and I even got to improve my Czech.

People folded my laundry in a nick of time, helped me cook the rice, asking me if I'm doing well, etc.

In this year's Igames, even I didn't get the chance to participate, it's compensated with me extending my connection.

Mind you, I'm not the type who easily get along with people I just know for hours.

But I quickly get along with Siti, to names a few.

Plus, I really enjoyed the company of Kirin and Kak Ejai.

For me, personally this Igames has done its job-untuk merapatkan ukhuwah sesama pelajar Malaysia di Czech.

I have tonnes to say but I'm just too lazy.

To those who make my days, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I'm sending flying kisses to y'all

Yesterday

Yesterday

I went to the tuition that I've been anticipating

We sat around a long table, near the little coconut tree

The wind chime (made of various used metal rods) was not as noisy as usual

There, my Indian tutor cum my neighbour was readyto teach us

Yesterday

I was near the petit coconut tree with my friend

Benny was wrapping up Eliza Clark's mint jelly for his sister

For gigi, gi. gi. he said pointing at his teeth

Yesterday

On the same ground in the evening

We were throwing a brithday party for my Indian tutor

Lantern was lit up

Party packs - peanuts cap Ngan Ying, chocolate wafer, colourful jellies, ballon and everything else that u can find in a transparent plastics given out to kids at brithday- were given

There were 2 big cakes

1 is number 2

the other 1 is number 1

and there was a banner reading, Happy Birthday Kala

Kala is my Indian tutor who I called Kak Vani (don't ask me why)

Food was good, great people, nice ambience

A laidback party with full 90's essence

Yesterday

It was only me

I was sitting at the dining table in the large kitchen

Above me, wau bulan of various shapes and sizes, made by Benny

Across the table, my Indian tutor's brother was having dinner

Then a couple came down and sat at the same table

There were grapes

They were fighting

The Indian brother finish his dinner in a haste

That left me with the arguing couple at the table

I must admit that I was shaking at that time

Yesterday

was the first time I see SP

a motherless child, that's what my Indian tutor told us

The child was spinning and making sounds with the racing bike

Yesterday

I sat at the same table

The same wau(s) bulan were above me

This time, a plate of steaming fried nugget was before me

Then, came 2 fingers running towards the nugget

They got hit before they reach the nugget

Then they came again twice and twice, they got hit again

Then I saw a hand wanting to shake mine.

My name is SP, that child said and spelled it out

As simple as that

A friendship was established

And then, every summer I would looking forward for that child visit

Along with the racing bike with white stars black rubber handle

Yesterday

I was on my way to fetch my then, 6 year-old brother from preschool

When I saw that child sitting knee up beside the racing bike near the chinese school

That child was bleeding

I don't remember what happen

But I remember funny yellow plastic bag wrapping the legs

everytime that child came out of the shower

Yesterday

I was a small child with lotsa questions

I was a bubbly girl who brave the lingo barrier

I was being asked about something regarding the friend that the presence that I always look forward to

I didn't reply

U see, I was not really good in standard Malay nor English

I spoke Penang accents all the way through my elementary

When I enquired my Indian tutor, she giggled and said that I must figured that out by myself

I looked blankly at past the child father at the mural of birds - pelican, mynah, pipit, flamingo

What was he asking me, I wonder about that until now

I never give him an answer

Today

perhaps I'm somewhere near to that child or perhaps we are far apart

We may pass by each other on the street and not realise it

The Indian family losses their mother when I was in standard 5, the last I see that child

My family moved to the other town when I was 12

I used to keep going back when I was in high school

With the hope that I can see that child again

I never get to see that child

Never know what happened to the racing bike

What stays there is just an empty guest house

The wau(s) bulan gone

The birds mural are gone

What's left for me is just the slowly fading memory of my good times, our good times

Thus I don't expect people to understand what I'm typing over here

This post is intended for me and me alone

Sometimes, I would always think

That it would be good if we can meet again.

It would be too good

So long..

I'm A Jealous Type

Well, well, well.

I'm always told that I'm one.

By my mak.

I've to admit that though.

I've this one classmate.

She's so brilliant.

She always finish her work wayy ahead of everybody, even when she comes late.

I'm envious.

When we all latched our faces on the notes, she just look around, just waiting for the class to start.

She always finish her paper first and get top marks in the end.

She knows what she doing, she is conscious that she's, by far the best.

I can't help but to be jaelous over her achievement.

I think of speeding up my own ability

Work harder (forget this part, I'm just about to start)

And do anything possible to be a brilliant one

Honestly speaking, I don't like anyone to look down on me nor I'm fine with anyone to look down on my friends.

In the middle of hastening to finish my work, I suddenly realised what my best friend from high school told me.

Mind you, she is the hardworking, disciplined type and she's among best students in our country during our time.

In our first examination as a high school student, she was on top of the list while I was wayy behind, marked 44.

Being who I am, I asked her out of curiosity

"Friend, u r so chytry (bijak). Could you tell me how do you study?"

At that time and for the rest of Junior High, I was envious of most of the girls because they have a set of Sasbadi revision books which, I didn't have the privilege to buy.

And my friend told me this " U can't follow my methods of studying, everyone have their own way to study"

At that time, I was taken aback from that remark, but when I'm matured enough to understand what she said to me, I must say that she's right.

You see, everyone have their own abilities and thus their own limits on doing something.

As for the case of studying, not everyone is born genius.

There are people who is not good at studying but highly skilled in arts or other skill works.

In medical school, where everyone is chytry, they are there for different reasons.

Some are born to be geniuses, some are quick at learning, some make it through because of hardwork.

Comparing our own abilities is fine but excessive comparing can be destructive.

Today, I realise that it's not such a big matter how do u pave your way to the destination (destination=result test, result xm, presentation, lab work etc.)

The most important thing is you understand what you have been through to get to the finishing line and how the result benefits you.

I learned that by hastening and be there early brings no meaning when I don't understand what did I do.

I f you wonder what happens to my best friend, she is pretty much the same excellent girl (or maybe a par or two above the excellent she that I used to know)

As for me, I was in good ranking for the most of my high school time.

I'm much better after I know my best friend.

Do pray for both our success in what we are doing will ya?

Update

My cast has been removed.

Radius is recovering but my skin is all dry and it itches like crazy.

And when scratched, it comes off in flakes (look something like megadandruff)

Doctor says it will takes usually min 3 months for fracture to completely recover.

It feels weird after the the cast is removed.

I tried to elevate my hand and zap!!! the pain hits.

If u ask me how does it feel.

My answer is,

it feels like part of your bone is left at the original position while the other part elevates.

It's some illusion like the bone is breaking.

I asked the doctor for supporter and he gave me the prescription and voila is the thing

Costs me 304 kc.

And the doctor recommends me to go for physiotherapy sessions.

Ay, money matters here.

But then, health comes first.

Since the cast been removed, my confidence to use the broken wrist drops.

Plus, the doctor says I should not use the broken arm except for physiotherapy.

Apart from money, time does matter.

I hope I can make some time for the session and I pray harder that it doesn't cost me a designer handbag.

Btw, here is one of the videos we watched today.

So funny

Hmm,tried a few times to no avail.

Cuti-cuti Czech : Pec Pod Sněžkou 2

Basically, there are these things on top of the mountain
Czech restaurant

Polsky restaurant

Viewing deck

And these are the things that u can do on top of the mountain
Peeking at someone taking bath way down in the town
I'm just exaggerating.
Actually, u feed the whatever-its-name-is 10kc, adjusting here and there to your liking (without shifting your eyes from whatever-its-name-is) and the image will appear before your confused eyes.
Camwhoring (as usual, anywhere, anytime)

Bertapa

Actually, there's nothing much to do.

Except if U love hiking, the track is breathtaking.

However, if U love nature like me, just looking at the place itself is satisfyingly enough.

Up there, it's majestic!
