Muslim Vs. Terrorist

Bismillah al-rahman al-raheem,

Not as cliche as the title, I will not touch upon anything that you, the readers (mcm la banyak!) already know. I was surprised to know that my Arab teacher, who has been teaching me in Near Eastern Study class is actually a Christian. Why? What's wrong with that? Nothing is wrong, but I admire his broad knowledge and the way he viewed the world's upheavals. He told the history of the great gunpowder Islamic empires and the flaws of the Christian crusaders without hesitation. He knew that there is no point hiding the real historical discourse when the evidences are right before their eyes.

The Precious Gift

Bismillah al-rahman al-raheem,

Layla was gazing through out the window when she saw her student is calling her name.

"Teacher, may I have a moment with you?"

Serangan Ketam

Bismillah al-rahman al-raheem

It's been a long time since my last piece of writing here. Though I have a lot of assignments due before the finals, I couldn't resist the temptation to at least write a nice sentence in my blog! << so here goes the sentence! :D

Kindly enjoy the crabby photos taken last night while I was helping my roommate to cook ketam masak lemak:

It's Time to Go Home

Bismillah al-rahman al-raheem,

At times when..

Ukhuwah finally unites the starving souls,

Community finally became a close family,

Worldly commitments finally became lesser priority,

At time when life slowly became more complete,

It's time to go home

A never ending journey

Time passed by,

Never stop by to say hi,

I halted,

Wondering why I indulged so much in this worldly endeavors,

I halted,

But I heard noises from afar, calling for my presence,

I stop halting,

It is clearly destined, that I shall not remain deaf to these calls.

*move on, a little more towards the finishing line!

Jujur, Tak Boleh Belajar

Astaghfirullah,

Jujur, tak boleh belajar!

Tak berdisiplin langsung, sejak dari tadi dapat selak 2,3 helai muka untuk study Geomorphology, bedrock channel tak habis-habis, kenapa? why? purque? doshite? limaza? Salahkan cerita di bawah ni! T_T

Betul-betul mengubah persepsi saya terhadap filem-filem Melayu. Semua tekaan pada awal cerita salah, salah, salah dan salah. Geram. Tengok sampai habis baru tahu cerita sebenar. Sangat berseni, kurang cliche macam filem-filem yang lain. Cerita ni dah lama keluar, tapi dek kerana terlampau sibuk, dah lama tak jenguk website ni kepalabergetar.net. Siapa nak tengok kena siapkan homework dulu!

This happened when you try to multitask, one screen for movie/video and another to read your academic textbook. It's really true that "multitask could take your life away" (jalan raya).

This time kena betul-betul.

Time is irreversible, what you wasted on the past,

you can't redeem it in the future.

Celebration of Knowledge

Bismillah al-rahman al-raheem

Forsake Your Sleep

After 2 weeks (not 2 months) of hard work trying to finish piles of work, homework, assignments, exams, test and the list goes on and on...I finally have time to write here. It's really unfair to only work on my 6 papers of Geophysics, but leaving this blog of mine outdated. Stress? No, but I need to breath fresher air. Not the atmosphere of Tucson. Thanks to my lovely graduating seniors for organizing a "field trip" to Chiricahua National Monument. Located in the East side of Arizona, it took us two hours to drive there.

Some words are better unexpressed,

Some expressions too, are better left unwritten,

But the reminiscence of the journey will be framed in every minds

of us

(Izzati,2012)

Enjoy the kodak-moments!
