Having a break for a while..

I never thought of having everything due and happen in the same week and early in the week after. Everything means all subjects I took this semester. I guess, this is my most hectic schedule I've had this year. Sampai rasa tak tau camna nak bahagikan masa dah. Huhu. But, I''ll never stop trying. :)

• 29th April - Japanese skit presentation
• 29th April - Corporations Law quiz
• 29th April - Econometrics mid semester take home exam is up
• 1st May - Trivia Night with PQSA
• 3rd May - Income Tax Law mid semester exam
• 3rd May - Econometrics mid semester exam due

Time is nearly up tapi sempat lagi blogging. Hehe. by the way, me and Rabbit have got our Japanese names for tomorrow's presentation. My new name will be Saruwatari Ayumi. Comel tak? Hehee. It means monkey on the crossing bridge walk with deeper meaning. Nande kore? Hohoho.

Ok, gtg now. Gonna start memorising our scripts. Later then.

It's ANZAC DAY, It's FAZZ'S BDAY!




At Anzac Parade for the first time ever.. ;)

Selamat Hari Jadi ke 21

Nurfazlina Ismail a.k.a Fazz!!!

Sorry for the spontaneous birthday bash, Fazz. (It's not really spontaneous though.. it's well planned.. Hehee.) Well, hope you did enjoy it and had so much fun and wet!! Hikk.

Happy Anniversary, My Love ;)

I remembered whose the first person who suggested to get you for us. She's Mastq. At first, I refused to join the share. The reason underlying was the fact that I REALLY can't drive manually. Too bad. But then, after been convinced by Mynn, I agreed. I just simply said yes so that I will try to find the courage to drive you by my own some day. And now as for today, I have become one of the official drivers for you. I've drove you around, even alone. And the best thing happened; I can drive manually now. :) (tapi, takde la terror sgt. ) A special thanks to Mastq for coming out with the idea for buying a manual car. And to all my partners (Leen, Mynn & Mastq), Thank Allah for granting us the opportunity to own a car here and for taking care of it and us while driving. Semoga kita tetap terpelihara dari sebarang bala.. Ameen.

Bought on: 6th April 2004
Being charged on parking fine: 1x
Being summoned on speeding (speed trap): 2x
Being hit by other car: 1x - tiada kecederaan dilaporkan, hanya kemalangan jiwa. huhu.

Whatever had happened, we still love you!! :) :) :)

Fobia

Fobia ku dianiaya..
iya, iya, iya, haiya..
Fobia menjadi mangsa...
Fobia ku dalam bahaya...
(Fobia - KRU)

Again, aku terperangkap. Two years ago, I was stuck alone in the elevator at The Lodge, Spring Hill. Dahla malam plak tu. Memang cuak gell that time. Rasa nak nangis giler. And today, which is just now, aku terperangkap lagi dalam toilet di rumah Denise, Baya, Syifa' and Mai. Takde tempat lain ke aku nak terkunci. Pastu dah la dalam toilet tu kurang pengudaraan. Takutt.. Alhamdulillah aku masih hidup. Serious sekarang dah fobia nak gi mana-mana sorang sorang dah. Huhuh.

Aku rindu kalian....!! :(





Nasib baik dapat minum bubble tea harini... yummie!~!

This weekend is going off so fast. I had my mid semester for External Reporting yesterday. I'd say it was quite ok, Alhamdulillah. Today, I've decided to go to the city with some other friends. Had Nando's and bubble tea.. Bought few stuffs. And now ended up watching Bride & Prejudice. Loving the movie... :)

Proud of School & Uni

They've won the second place in International Law Debate Competition (International Moot Court Competition) that been held in Washington recently. Hehe.. Feel so proud of them because one of them is a Tkcian. Semangat
college ku tak pernah luntur. huhu. Kepada para pendebat2 sekolah, watch out whose that girl in the middle. Korang sure kenal nye. =p

And guess what, they've lost to the team from University of Queensland. Feel proud of UQ too!! :D

A Random Dialogue

Person A:

I think, i've found life that i've been looking for. This is what actually me. I've found that type of people whom i usually hang around with if i'm back home. I've found that type of life i normally had when i'm home. Selama ini, saya kawan dengan kamu sebab saya tidak jumpa lagi dengan orang yang 'clicked' dengan saya. Lagipun, cara kita berbeza. Yay, sekarang saya sudah berjumpa dengan cara hidup yang saya nak selama ini. And now, i'm happy with these people around me!

Person B:
If that's what you feel, go ahead. As long as you are happy. (walaupun dalam hatinya sebenarnya terkilan di atas perubahan tersebut)

Result of the dialogue:
It hurts. But, forgive them for what they did. Hopefully, their changes will lead them to a better life/way. If it doesn't, semoga Allah memberi petunjuk dan hidayah kepada mu, kawan. Ingatlah bahawa hari ini mestilah lebih baik dari semalam dan hari esok mestilah lebih baik dari hari ini.

Sekian.

Hey, look at me!

{ fazz, mintak izin jadik model jap with the baby ekh. =p }

I am in love with this picture! I am touched by the eye contact between both of them. Sucinya baby ni tanpa sebarang dosa lagi. Dia masih belum mengenal sesiapa lagi (mungkin hanya ibunya), masih belum boleh melihat untuk jarak yang jauh, masih belum dipengaruhi oleh anasir-anasir yang berbahaya di luar sana, ia masih bersih dan suci. In fact, he's so cute!! Saya pasti sesiapa pon yang bertemu dengan bayi ini, will say the same thing. Ada ke orang yang tak sukakan bayi? Kalau ada, orang gile kot. Bila terkenangkan diri yang serba lemah ini, alangkah banyaknya dosa yang telah dilakukan jika dibandingkan dengan bayi ini. Tapi, kita dah besar, dah punya akal. Sepatutnya kita dapat membezakan mana yang baik dan mana yang buruk. Cuma kita kena saling mengingatkan diri bahawa syaitan sentiasa berada di sekeliling untuk menyesatkan kita. It's been stated in the Quran. Jadi, sentiasa la berwaspada dengan godaan dunia dan cuba untuk melawan bisikan syaitan agar tidak tergolong di kalangan orang yang sesat. Jadikan la diri kita sebagai seorang bayi yang bersih dan suci agar semua pon turut sukakan kita dan mengatakan kita comel. =) Nak tak?

Tribute to baby Mu'az, born on 2nd March 2005 in Brisbane. He's an Oz-born! To Kak Asma dan Abg Zakir, tahniah sebab dapat anak yang comel. =) To Mu'az, semoga menjadi seperti Muaz bin Jabal, sahabat Nabi yang unggul bila awak besar kelak yer.

Di Satu Malam...

It's 4.20 a.m in the morning and I am still awake with Huda and Leen. We talked and talked a lot to keep us awake until fajr while listening to some songs, hopefully semua menda tu akan membawa kebaikan. But when it comes to academic talk, something about CGPA, dean's list, six or seven... ermm.. ni aku lemah ni.. hee. Wuhhooo, having Huda and Leen in the conversation regarding studies, agak la menggerunkan. Memang kalau aku yang dulu, sudah pasti aku boleh lemah semangat teramat dan jatuh merudum. Tapi, Insya Allah bukan aku yang sekarang. Perbualan camni bukan lagi melemahkan semangatku, hopefully.. But I have realized that feeling on inferiority can kill myself. So, i took it positively. Setiap orang pasti menghadapi phase phase kesusahan dan kesenangan dalam hidup. Hidup ibarat roda yang berpusing. Apa apa pon yang terjadi, itulah yang terbaik dari Allah. Jadikan kesusahan sebagai dugaan dan ujian agar menjadikan kita hamba yang lebih sabar, bersyukur dan menghargai nikmatNya.

Go Salwa go!


Menitis airmata ku keharuan..
Kepada sebuah pertemuan...

Thank you, korang!

Aura mem-Blog

I just browsed through all blogs from my links. As I keep browsing and blog hopping, I managed to find a number of my tkc fellas had already got their own blogs especially those yang baru fly to U.K. Surprisingly, most of them yang tak disangka2. Hee. It seems like blogging has become one of our hobbies or daily routine to most of the people nowadays. Anyway, it's really a good way of communication and to keep everyone updated. I'm loving it.. Keep on blogging everyone! ;)


Apart from that, one not-that-nice feeling had just appeared out of no where. Some kind of feeling that I would say.. sad. I was once again been upset of some words or events happening around me. Like I've said this quite frequently, people might change in a second. People can change their mind or perception within a minute. People change their behaviour in a day. People can change their attitude towards other people in a week. People change when environment changed. The R-squared value for Change vs Environment is equal to 1. And now thank God that I am coping with it, so far. Well, not everyone can. Some people have just got sick and tired of it. Some may just hate it. But, I won't let hatred to conquer me and if yes, I would just prefer to die.

Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim's Visit to UQ


Me, Huda & Nurul Izzah



Anwar in delivering his speech


What a suprise having him in UQ yesterday! He was here for an international law seminar in Gold Coast and had been invited to give a public lecture at UQ by one of the professors. I don't wanna talk more about his lecture, but overall, it was a great and powerful economic personal review indeed. What i would like to stress out here is the fact that time just flies sooo fast.. He has been released from jail after 6 years of imprisonment. As far as i remember, Anwar's controversy happened when i was in form two in high school and during that time, we thought that he will loss his credibility as a leader but now he's back with full of respects. Wishing you all the best. By the way, I was so happy to have a snap with Nurul Izzah, someone whom I really adore and respect. I am impressed by her courage and strengths throughout her participation in fighting for her dad. Nice meeting you, =)

Wuhoooo! There's a lot of events happening these days. But, i still couldn't update that much coz internet connection tak masuk lai. Phone pon tak hidup lagi.. isk isk. Let me sum all events up.


PQSA Dinner with Petronas VP and ESU
love it! semi-formal and sempoily held which i think, it makes us different from the others. Well done to all committees and members. UQ will always rocks! Good luck everyone especially to the final year students in being well rounded and of course excellent in academic comes first. Well, we are the hidden gem, let us keep shining and shimmering. AhaQs!


Golf for Beginners
Golfing is such a fun game. Considered boring by some people but it really challenged your stamina and strength to swing the golf club and stay fit under the hot sun. sampai ada orang pengsan.. I really enjoy the first lesson of golf and of course i will for the rest of the lessons.


Jom Picnic UMNO
Ermm, I enjoyed the Roma Street Parkland scenery so much. The event was okly held except it would be more ok if everyone turned up to complete their responsibilities assigned. That would be very very great.


Brisbane Convention Centre
Dropped by with all the girls to watch out the sale and discounted stuffs there. Not much of things to grab but i admit that $5 sneakers were really a good bargain, Rabbit. Best2!


Pancake Manors
Yummmiee!! Had Hot n Troppo after 2 years (i guess, heh) not having pancake there. Deliciouslllyyy lazat giler. Me n Naji had a really enjoyable time menghabiskan pancake kami. And of course Fazz, Aiza and Dila's orders are also tempting and irresistable. Agak lawak la kalau ingat aksi-aksi kami exchanging food with each other. Hahaha.

So far, I really had a nice time here. Especially with all people around me that keeps me refreshing, cheerful and happy. Thanks guys for the companion.

Spain

After finished reading a malay novel named Sesuci Cinta and browsing Kum's fotopages as well as reading her blog entries, what i feel right now is i really really wanna visit Spain. I don't know how to say, but i feel like being pushed to go there. Huhu. Well, that particular novel is obviously more or less about love. But the author's expression had given me an impact of fascinating Spain a lot.

I guess, what attracted me to go there is because of its historical values and the fact that Spain was once conquered by us (Muslims) and became an Islamic country and centre that time.

Istana Al-Hambra is the first place i would like to visit if i ever reach Spain, Insya Allah.

Yesterday, me and Bahiah attended the CA Employment Evening where obviously a place that offers great chance to meet the real CAs and employers and have a look on accounting firms in Australia especially the Big 4. This event is purposely held to give an exposure for future graduates about the career path and opportunities they will get after their graduation. For those who have graduated, its the right time and place to hand in their resumes or cvs like what Ansar did. I guess, I've already had a plan for myself. As for now, the only thing I have to do is STUDY and STRIVE.

5 courses were enrolled this semester. It's my first time ever. I am quite afraid and worried actually. Rasa macam berat sangat.. But, the spirit is HERE. It dominates everything. Challenges are opportunities. Wish me luck, friends.

Salam Dari Brissy

Hyeee!! I'm back in brissy, back in uni! I've had few lectures already this week and life is going fine so far. What pissed me the most is the fact that i had the worst timetable ever this semester. For the first time in my uni life, i have classes every day and no free day at all. Well, on the other side, its good then so i would spend most of my day at uni. Tapi.. nak gak satu hari takde class langsung! hehee.

This year, all Petronas scholars are required to stay off-campus into a new accomodation. The new place is great, with new housemates. Currently, the only thing we requested for is a study table for each of us. Gile gak la if takde.. Well, i nearly settled down unpacking my stuffs but there were seriously hell lot. Our main problem is lack of spaces to arrange and put things up. Pening gak nak mengemas.. heee..

Here is a simple update from me today. Phone and internet connection are not ready yet to be used and we will think for its installation soon. Can't really live without it. Occay, i will try to update some more later.

Take care everyone.

24 hours +/- left

Malam sangat sepi. Tetiba rasa sedih menyelubungi diri ini. Tinggal beberapa jam sahaja aku akan meninggalkan tanah air sekali lagi. Come on Salwa.. face the reality!~! This is life.. bertemu dan berpisah, datang dan pergi, it will be fine.. semuanya niat kerana Allah.

Right now, i am (still) packing my stuffs. One problem just occured, satu bag tak cukup to fit everything in. I have to bring 2 bags besides having another hand luggage. I pon wonder apa la banyak sgt barang sampai tak cukup satu bag yang sangat besar. Hoping that, i won't be facing any problems masa check-in nanti. Thanks Fazz for the help offered. I really appreciate that. =)

Siang tadi, ku masih sempat selesaikan few things. Went to PNB in Kl, berjaya siapkan a family photo album, jumpa dentist and burn gambar2 to cds. Ok gak la tu kan managed to settle those dalam masa separuh hari. hehee.

In case i don't get online dah before balik Brisbane, here, i wanna thank everyone whom i did hang out with, thanks for the companion. To all yang tak sempat nak jumpa, sorry sangat2.. Time sgt constraint.. Insya Allah we will meet again soon. Take care everyone.

Ok ok, sekarang nak sambung burn gambar dan packing (lagi?). To all brissies, nantikan kemunculan ku!! See ya!~!

Wassalam.

Mengitung Hari

Hari ni, genap lagi 2 hari aku akan berada di tanah air. Preparation ku so far, belum selesai lagi. Ayah dah sound, jangan last minute.. Takut ada yang tertinggal. Dan aku sedang berusaha untuk tidak last minute, tengah sort out things to bring back. Maybe malam esok baru boleh start packing. Ramai jugak my friends whom already arrived Brisbane by now. Sure tengah busy kemas-kemas rumah kan.. heee.. Selamat berkemas..

Esok, thought of having the final shopping. Ada few stuffs tak settle lagi.

Sebenarnya, i'm so grateful and happy these days. Satu berita gembira baru ku perolehi semalam. Aku bersyukur yang teramat kepada Allah s.w.t. Aku sempat berkongsi kegembiraan dengan seorang sahabat yang kebetulan berada dengan ku ketika itu. For this particular person who knows what's going on, wish me luck. I will take the challenges as an opportunity... Let's ganbatte together!!
