Messages for my loved ones

As always, we had a chat on the way back from school. The girls were hungry and asked what's for lunch. Well, since mummy was at home in the morning I've prepared a simple lunch for us. Masak tempoyak Ikan (fish in fermented durian gravy) and  kacang botor goreng (fried winged beans) for mummy and daddy, fried chicken, fried fish and chicken soup for the kids. "Wow! So delicious mummy..." Mentioned Athiya. Then my little darling Alana said, "all mummy's cooking are delicious. When I grow up can you write all the recipe for me so I can cook delicious food like you?" Well my dear, you just know how to please me...as always. Insya Allah, when the time comes I'll teach you all that I know. I might not have the orange and torn recipe book like your late grandmother, but I'll make sure I jot down all the recipe that I know and especially those that you enjoy eating here in my blog. For you guys to see and maybe to refer to when I'm gone. InsyaAllah...

I always love the oldies that people older than me would always found it weird since some of the songs that I listen to are way too old. I used to have a friend who shared the same interest in the oldies. I remembered when we used to exchange walkman (well... I was born in the 70s right?) and we listened to songs that we love with serious faces. my friends used to tease us since we were too serious looking when we listened to the songs that we like. I guess the melody and the lyrics are so simple that we could enjoy the music as well as understand the meaning of the song at the same time. Well it's been a while since I browsed through my songs collection. I do need a little lift me up these few days therefore I've been watching some old dramas that i used to love. This song was played on the series finale of Ed (another favourite of mine). It seems like this could be my new favourite song. I dedicate this song to my loved ones as they would be the ones who are welcomed to my ...

Had a chat with my students just now. I was telling her about my experience and how I think a lecturer is just another human being and it would be good if they could actually be a good friend as well. I suppose that was just me since the students said that their lecturer would always put themselves 1 step higher than a student. For them being a lecturer is something huge... something magical that only the selected bunch can be... Well, that might be true... especially if u are teaching witchcraft and wizardry... but if u ask me.. lecturing is not much of a difference if u compared to other jobs. The difference may lies in how you hold the position and what do you do with ur position. Being a lecturer is about teaching, motivating and showing the students a better way in life. To do that... u need to give good examples... u need to gain respect and of course u need to get close to the students... To do all these does not mean that u will hang out with the students at all time... it do...

This is basically just some writing that I do for you people who went with me to remember.   The kick start It is all begin in the first week of the semester. Having a Monday class I know that there will not be many that would arrive back in campus. Therefore I seize the moment the catch you people unguarded. With only seven person in the class, I gave the first assignment and I expect all (including those who are not there) to do it. What is the assignment? To organize a promotional / public information event. I know we haven’t even started yet with our chapters but that is how I create the fear in students. I believe some of you would hate me for that. Anyway, the next week you presented your ideas and I commented. There are many good ideas (though I disagree with all the groups) but you need to polish those ideas. Once we’ve listened to everybody I asked you to select and discuss with me on your projects. Group D proposed this project while group C proposed anoth...
