Big Day!

Well, I know it’s a bit late to talk about my BIG DAY! With my trip to Singapore plus special assignment to Southern state recently, I barely have the time to be on the net
( Oh, man!) Anyway, I guess it’s better late than never right….
It’s definitely my special, meaningful day, the much awaited convocation in the Northern University. Alhamdulilah, I got my scroll at last. Don’t get me wrong, I do get pretty emotional on that day but it’s not like I burst into tears or something like that, but it’s an unexplainable feeling. Nervous, Enthusiast, Proud, Sadness. Just name it, it’s all there. Looking back at my parents, their sacrifices during good & bad times just to provide the best education for me. It’s very touching.
With My Heart ( Indonesia) & Putra Putri song sang by the choir in the hall, it’s a reminiscence……First day in campus, my friendship with the coolest gang , college life, broadcasting job, exams, etc… it’s all coming back me! Visually, literally in my brain. Serious…..On and on for quite some time.
On second thought, it’s going to be a brand new me! I’m in the real world now, serious stuff, no hanky-panky. Have to strive harder for a brighter future. To be the best among the best….
On the other hand, my heartiest thanks to my parents for their endless support, for being there with me all these years. To my greatest gang, I’m so proud to be in the hall with all of you guys & girls. All the good times that we shared during the event will always be in my heart. Best of luck for all of you. Happy Belated Convocation Day, 2-3 September 2007, Sintok.

There is always a choice!

Wow, it’s has been quite a long time since the last post! It’s my tight schedule and I guess some technical constraints ( yeah what a lame excuses…!) Back to business, I’ve noticed this new trend and even my colleague has highlighted this ‘choice’ theme in the recent Hollywood’s blockbuster movies especially those marvel superheroes namely; Spiderman 3 (which was my previous post in May), Fantastic 4 plus the much awaited robots in disguise ‘Transformers the movie’. Choice between the right and wrong, light and darkness, truth and lies has always been apart of our complex modern life. Conflicts, dilemma and tragedy seem to be the consequences when critical decision are to be made. It happens all the time; during school days for instance whether to go for tuition after class or head straight for a movie. Next, to pursue for STPM or Diploma after SPM. Even to further degree locally instead of oversea and to enter into a job market to gain experience as a fresh grad or take up MBA course in prestigious Business School. All these situation is about choice. In a macro perspective with a broader outlook, Pervez Musharaff’s recent action towards the so-called Pro-Taliban group is related to his choice. However, he has lead the way into a mass destruction towards his own country, people and political affairs as he was unable to make the right choice! Indeed, choice is not something that we can take for granted. So, there is always a better choice.....

Here comes Spidey......

Absolutely awesome! To be frank, I am so not the spiderman 'die hard fan' type of a person and when my colleague suggested to watch the movie over the last weekend, I don't really put my heart into it. Okay, I had this first stereotype feeling that this is going to be the next super duper hyper extra powerful spiderman fighting against the new lame 'evil hideous monster' flawlessly. I'm SO wrong!!!!
Spiderman 3 is definitely a great movie far beyond the par compared to the other previous sequals. It's not just the outstanding specials effects in which Hollywood is famous for, but Sam Raimi( the director) was able to blend the movie with the humanistic approach, emotions and intinsic values in an excellent manner. Peter Parker is back this time to set an equilibrium between his love one (M.J) & his challenging role as a photographer & the iconic superheroes in NY. However, life is not an easy task when it comes to hatred, feud and evil that lies beneath the inner self. This is what happened to Peter Parker, Harry Osborne, Sandman and Venom in which all of them are involved with inter-related love crisis, death, and desperation. But they have the choice. To do good deeds or evil! This is the essence of the movie. The plots develops rapidly and I'm sure that the fast-pace action packs really an enjoyable experience. Lots of suspense & unexpected scenes as well as emotional touching moments. It's not easy to watch a superhero burst into tears but you'll see that in this movie. That's the best part, Spiderman is very human.... this time!

It's a journey!

Everybody has their own definition towards life.....
Some may look forward to fulfill their desire with wealth, fame and physical attraction but some may opt for a true love instead.Some may tolerate and get used to the daily hustle and bustle plus bumper to bumper traffic congestion with hectic life in the metropolitan dynamic city; but others might prefer the quiet, bask with tranquility, serene environment in the remote villages with basic necessities. However, life is indeed a long journey with numerous unexpected challenges and obstacles to deal with. Strength, courage, patience, persistence and wisdom.......those are the essential values to be develop. It's definitely the survival kit that need to be prepare beforehand and it should start today

Life cycle.....

What goes around comes around....What goes up must comes down......It's a part and parcel of life, at times I felt so comfortable or shall I say complacentwith the situation that I'm familiar with. However, the 'comfort zone' seems to disappear as I move forward to face a new environment. Let me clarify the situation that I've been through all these years. Being a super- senior in my former university is so cool, i'm blessed with so much confidence plus the golden opportunity to be one of the influential figure and the extra-mile experience with the coolest gang; but it's all come to an end once I move out from the academic zone and now I'm a new player in this challenging scenario- It's a first step to climb the corporate ladder!Dejavu, that's the right word! It's the same feeling all over again, just like the transition process that I had to face in the past. It's like from pre-school to standard one, from standard six to a 'new born baby' in form one, then from a senior secondary student again to freshies in college. It's a life cycle.....and it goes again and again. No matter what; life has to go on and I have to play my vital part. I may be lack of experience or quite naive in the 'new world' but I believe in the chemistry of perspiration and inspiration. It's a learning process. Inshallah i'm ready for it..
