I'm back!!!

Hello people!!! It has been a very long time since I've updated myself with the world of blogging. It's 3.46am now in Sydney and I can't get asleep! Having lecture at 8am is really a pain-in-the-arse for people like me who sleep at 3am almost every night. Thank god its only the first week of the semester. Have to fix my biological clock a.s.a.p. Since I've started blogging might as well speak out what's going on in my mind. Firstly, I thought of doing another extra subject this semester, making it a total of 5 subjects. I've never done 5 subjects before except in the first year which was definitely tiring. However, it's a different case now since I'm doing the heavy subjects (biochem, chem and molecular biology). Another subject which is biotechnology is an industry-kind-of project so I don't know what to expect. If I'm doing another chemistry subject, it would definitely put me in a lot of pressure because chem was never an easy subject for me! I am still considering to do the extra subject eventhough I am certain that I won't be able to enjoy the rest of the semester. Secondly.....well I should probably try to sleep now and update later...

retardation..

Mentally and emotionally unstable. Easily annoyed and irritated. Need lots of DOTA to calm me down.

My definition of Friendship

It's been approximately 2 weeks after my birthday. I wasn't actually hoping for any surprise party or any kind of celebration but more to who remember it and who didn't. And I was also kind of hoping that they would do something "special" for me on that day (not that I actually want gifts or anything, there are a lot of ways to make someone feel special on their birthday). It is very important to me that my friends (especially CLOSE FRIENDS) and family members to remember the date because it reflects how much they care and appreciate me. But of course some people are too busy with whatever they are doing so it really is okay if they didn't remember it (eventhought I'll get upset, but I'll get over it soon). Frankly, a lot of my friends greeted me on that day. I was extremely happy. Thanks to everyone who send me text messages or called me to wish my birthday, which include all of my family members. And thanks to Afif for being one of the earliest to greet me (he called me at 12am that night, that really means a lot to me). And also Ridzuan Mohsin for sending me messages early that morning (I thought you have forgotten about my birthday, but you didn't!). Thanks to Izul for treating me Pad Thai at Thai Mascot and Azri for dinner at Oporto. And to Wan Zul for calling me that night. Honestly, you guys makes me feel appreciated as a friend. Thanks to Jia Ji, Jiha, Wani, Falihin and Juan for sending me comments on the friendster. We are so far apart, but you guys have never failed to make me feel so fortunate having all of you in my life (and that also goes to Ridzuan Mohsin and Afif). Thanks to Faiq for buying meat lover box for lunch and to Acap for buying me choc-tea-milk-whatever-drink (eventhough everyone says it taste weird, but I like it a lot). I am so grateful to Allah for them.

My easter break....

Today is Friday...2 more days to go before the classes starts for the next half of the semester. This Easter's break is seemingly worthless as I haven't done much the things i thought i would do. The whole holiday was filled with endless day dreaming and waiting for what lies ahead for me tomorrow. It's been hell lot of waiting for stuff that I really wanted to do. I wanted to go out and meet my friends and have a great time hanging out with people that I love and care the most. But the whole time seems to be just a total waste....being mostly at my messy apartment has gotten me pretty upset because everyone's busy with their own stuff. Fortunately, thanks to the almighty Allah for clearing up this whole disastrous feelings of loneliness and misery, I actually found what makes me happy....Dota :) After several months of remaining dormant, I decided that I should play it again just to kill the boredom. I knew that playing too much Dota will put my priority of studying down at the bottom but what the heck. It's rather interesting to play with someone else instead of feuding with the computer, so I decided to ask nik if he doesn't mind playing with me. And yes he always got time for me and i was extremely happy that even aloy n syed would want to join the team. So thursday night was filled with the excitement of battling between 2 teams. We switched partners for 3 games that night and I was very glad that I got myself occupied again. That was the day and the only day I played dota for this break. Well, I have to get my priority straight, that is to study and do well for this semester. And I have always wanted to thank Afif for always being there for me. And to my lovely housemates, I hope we all can get the best out of this holiday and ofcourse obtain a very good results for this semester. Ok that's it for this short chapter of my holiday. Will update soon when I got something to say to the world :)

An update

Today is sunday (duhh..). So it's been quite a while since i updated my blog. I didn't do much these few days. I went to Bankstown last thursday to eat something that I've always wanted to, that is McDonalds!!! Actually i went to punchbowl because from what was stated in the halal guide, halal McD should be in punchbowl, but unfortunately the information was wrong. Kinda dissapointed, but the taxi driver took me to this one mall where there're lots and lots and LOTS of halal foods, including KFC, but not McD (i took a cab bcoz i've lost my sense of direction). It costs $20 for both return ride (WTH so expensive!!! It wasn't that far, just 5 minutes ride). Anyway, when i was inside the building, i saw a lot of women wearing hijab and also lebanese-looking individuals, so i guess this must be one of the town where muslim's population is the majority. After walking through and looking at the shops (its all dull-looking shops, not bother to enter) i saw McD! There was a long queue, but i came this far to eat McD and i wont let this opportunity go! When i was at the counter, i asked the cashier whether the food is halal or not. Sadly, it's not. So i guess i just have to eat KFC. There i go, searching for KFC. After a few minutes of walking, i saw KFC but suprisingly i saw another McD, which doesn't make any sense! (why do u need 2 McDs in one mall??? This mall wasn't huge like Time Square) So this brought me to the cashier and suddenly i saw "Bankstown's McDonald now serving Halal food". OMG! The moment i've been waiting for has finally arrived! I ordered BigMac & Double Cheeseburger set and it costs only $10.20~~~(faint for 5 seconds...)
It was so good (actually it taste the same as the one in Malaysia, but i love exaggerating! lol) Anyway, its worth $20 of taxi rides (WTH so expensive!!!)
Last Friday was boxing day and let me tell u guys, there are too many MORTALS in the city! I cant even shop bcoz there are just too many people! The longest queue was at Gucci (didn't expect that) and most of them are Asians of the same age as me (again, didn't expect that). Ya Allah, I'm so jealous with them. They can afford to buy Gucci & LV & Burberry at my age!!! I dont even dare to go inside. But then again these stuff wasn't what i need to be successful in this world and the world hereafter, so i dont really bother :)
So here i am again on my bedroom, waiting for Syafiq Husni and Naim to arrive from their 2 weeks journey of fruitpicking. I guess they made big bucks. When will i get a job........

As bored as it seems...

I've just noticed how my blogs have been full of my whinings about boredom! well, what do u expect when u live all by urself in Sydney. There're not many things to do, that's for sure! I went to the city yesterday to buy a new sandal and it's quite hard to get a nice one, atleast the one that suits my taste. Plus, there're not many selections for men's footwear. I reckoned they don't really get demands for these sort of stuff. Anyway, i bought one which wasn't pretty though, but it's quite comfy. I went home straight away after i bought that sandal (just incase i ran into something fancy and spend more money.....lol), speaking of which, i do realize how i've been spending my money like spoilt brat these few days (sigh). It has been some sort of hobby for me to do when i'm EXTREMELY BORED, to go out and spend my cash on whatever i find fancy. But the sandal's price wasn't exorbitant, so i guess i've spent my money wisely. Speaking of today, I didnt go out at ALL because I dont have any idea where i should go. I wanna go to Lakemba or Auburn to eat halal McDonald, but those places are quite far (far=more money). Its time for me to spend my money moderately (but i've been saying that for ages, lol). Nah, it's ok to spend money on food, atleast it makes me feel good :)

Surah Al-Baqarah, verse: 1-20

Upon reading the translation of Quran which was written in Malay, I have a sudden urge to write it onto my blog. The Prophet Muhammad SAW (SAW = salallahu 'alaihi wasallam = peace be upon him) once said
"People will not sit remembering God without the angles surrounding them, mercy covering them and peace decending on them" (Muslim)
It is very important to remember Allah in our daily lives, not just in our prayers as it is our religion that will guide us to the right path. Let us all be in the group of people as mentioned above by our beloved prophet. I've decided to post the translation in English occasionally besides some updates of my life. Pardon me for any grammar mistakes as I'm not the best person to write materials in english, but i'll try to make it simple and understandable. For those who have time to read, please keep yourself updated with the translation, atleast it will benefit you.

Surah al-Baqarah is the second surah in Quran and was descended in Madinah.
" There is no doubts in Quran which has been the guidance for people with strong faith (takwa) and they have strong belief in the unseen matter (ghaib), perform their prayer (solat), allocate some part of their properties for the path of Allah, believes in Quran and other holy books that have been descended before Muhammad SAW and also have strong faith in the world hereafter (kiamat). These people obtained the guidance from Allah and are the successful ones. Those whom has no faith (kafir) will never have faith whether they were reminded or not. Allah has made their heart dead and also their ear and their views have been blinded from seeing the truth and they have been prepared with horrible torments (azab) in the hereafter. There is one group of mankind who says that they have faith in Allah and the hereafter but they are not what they say. They wish to fool Allah and the people of strong faiths but they didn't notice that they were fooling themselves. This is because there is a disease in their heart and Allah adds even more diseases to them and they will receive unbareable torments because of what they have done. When they were told not to perform disruptions on earth, they will say that they are the ones who perform good deeds, but the truth is they are the ones who disrupt the earth and they didn't know it. When they were told to obey as the ones whom obey Allah, they would question whether they should obey as those foolish people, but they are the foolish ones and they didn't know it.When they were with people of strong faith (iman), they will utter on their strong faith to Allah but when they were with the devils (syaitan), they will say "we will always be with you" and were faking on their faith to Allah. Allah shall punish for what they have done and let them lost in their world of fakeness. These people are the ones who buy the confusion by leaving the guidance and this business they're dealing with won't give any profiit and they won't obtain the guidance from Allah. The situation they're in is similar to a person who ignite a fire in dark. The fire lights the surroundings but Allah douse the fire and let that person rubs in the dark. These people are deaf, mute and blind and can't preceive the truth. Their situation is also similar to a person in a heavy rain with thunder and lightning; they plug-in their ears with their fingernails because of their fear of death, but Allah knows everything. The lightning came very close to their sights and gives the brightness for them to walk in the dark. When the light goes off, they'll come to a halt and waits in confusion. Their ability to see and hear will definitely come to and end if Allah desires so as Allah is the greatest above anything else."
