THE JOURNEY

Salam. I watched the Oprah Show few days back. She interviewed a woman named Rielle Hunter, who had (is having) an affair with John Edwards, a former senator of North Carolina. It's nothing much. Oprah asked her about the affair and a child she's having with him. But what I was interested of is how she said about John. Oprah asked her how much she could trust him and his love with all the lies he had made through the media and public to cover up their scandal. Did she trust his love and promises when at the same time, he told the public that he didn't have any relationship with her. She said that she trusted him. She believed that the lies he had made were just 'to make things better' and 'to correct things up'. To get back the good reputation, to maintain his good profile and at the same time to make the scandal private. She believed that deep in his heart, the love was there for her. Although she realised that at the end of it, things didn't worke

Salam.. Most people in teaching field have known about Standard Curriculum for Primary School or Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah which will be implemented starting next year 2011 for Year 1 kids. As usual..new syllabus, new textbooks, new activity books.. everything is new. I went for a course regarding this new improvised curriculum for English Language. Although I am not teaching Year 1 next year, but this course benefited me as I know which direction this new curriculum will bring our kids. In my personal opinion, I think we will produce pupils with better English Language acquisition. By using the modular approach, pupils will be taught starting with basics literacy skills, then language arts and grammar. The phonic strategy , which I like the most since I was in college, is introduced so that the pupils will read and speak with correct English pronunciation and enunciation. However, I think teachers might need more time to practise using the sound or what we call the phoneme

Salam..it's been a long time I haven't write anything on this blog. SInce the last Ramadhan, I didn't feel like writing anything. My life was up and down till this moment, but I'm glad that Allah still loves me and give me strength to go through all the pain and sadness. Bercerita tentang pain and sadness, ada perkara yang berlaku dalam hidup yang betul-betul memberi pengajaran kepada saya. I'm not sure whether I had faced this kind of situation before tapi tidak pernah ambil pengajaran, but this time yes, I really learned something from it. Dulu semasa di mrsm,tengah lepak-lepak dalam surau, ada kawan pernah bertanya tentang apa yang kita harus buat bila kita dianiaya ataupun disakiti hati oleh seseorang. Saya: Yang penting kita kena bersabar dulu dan istigfar banyak-banyak. A: Perlu ke kita balas dendam pada dia? Sakit hati sangat-sangat. Saya: Buat apa kita balas? Allah kata kalau dia buat kita, dia menang 1...kita balas then kita menang 1..so akan jadi seri 1-1.

Salam... Lagu nie sejak dari dulu hingga sekarang masih menjadi halwa telinga dan hati saya. Bagi saya lagu ini sangat ikhlas. Some songs we've heard, we feel that they are very related to our life, our feelings. I don't why but I feel this song is very related to my soul and my feelings towards my God, Allah s.w.t. Among other nasyeed songs, this is the best song and no. 1 in my chart until now. I'm calling You When all my goals, my very soul Ain't fallin' through I'm in need of You The trust in my faith My tears and my ways is drowning so I cannot always show it But don't doubt my love I'm calling You With all my time and all my fights In search for the truth Tryin' to reach You See the worth of my sweat My house and my bed Am lost in sleep I will not be false in who I am As long as I breathe [Chorus] Oh, no, no I don't need nobody I don't fear nobody I don't call nobody but You My One & Only I don't need nobody I don't fear

Salam...bila terdengar lagu ni...sayu pula hati..one of my favourites..SOT Drama Janji Kekasih. Ku menatap dalam kelam Tiada yang bisa ku lihat Selain hanya nama-Mu Ya Allah [*] Esok ataukah nanti Ampuni semua salahku Lindungi aku dari segala fitnah [**] Kau tempatku meminta Kau beriku bahagia Jadikan aku selamanya Hamba-Mu yang slalu bertakwa [***] Ampuniku Ya Allah Yang sering melupakan-Mu Saat Kau limpahkan karunia-Mu Dalam sunyi aku bersujud Back to [*][**][***] Back to [**][***]

Salam... Thanks to my friend who read my blog and gave me the design of the T-shirt. =)

Sedih... Kerana perlu bersendiri Melangkah di atas jalan ini Yang terkadang Orang lain tidak memahami Kenapa aku masih disini Ada yang merasa kurangnya logika Bertanya di mana pengakhirannya Bertanya apa kepentingannya Bertanya "sampai bila?" Gemuruh... Bila aku sedar Ilmu datang bersama tanggungjawab Segalanya pasti akan diuji Ujian itu bicara dari Tuhan Ujian yang datang jauh dari jangkaan Namun membawa seribu satu makna yang tersirat Buat diri Untuk memahami dan pelajari Tentang diri dan ketetapan Illahi Sepi... Tanpa sekufu Yang hebat bertarung Saling memahami Yang memberi dorongan Berkongsi senyuman dan gelak tawa Kini dirinya masih bertarung Dalam kehidupan yang dia jalani Yang mungkin aku masih belum sedia merasai Tapi dia masih gagah berdiri Menjadi seorang ibu dan isteri Gembira... Hati ini tanpa ragu Masih ingin berada di sini Jalan ini masih ingin aku langkahi Entah sampai bila Entah sejauh mana Yang pasti bila langkahku terhenti Ianya akan diwarisi Dari generasi k

Last week I went back to Sungai Petani during the weekend. It's my family tradition that we usually gather either on the first day of Ramadhan or during the first weekend of Ramadhan to have our 'sahur' and 'berbuka' together. Couple of years back I didn't get a chance to go back home for this as I was a student and I got not enough money to go back. This year is my first year as a working lady (a person who has a monthly salary), so I can go back like my sisters and brothers do. =) Then I knew this interesting story that inspires me as a teacher.As many people say, "ke mana tumpahnya kuah kalau tak ke nasi" , that suits to one of my 9-year-old niece. She and her 2 friends open a tuition class for kids in their neighbourhood area. They teach all subjects taught in school to kids aged 6 and 7 years old. My niece even showed me the exam analysis she made exactly like what I have in my school. They run the classes on every Friday from 9-11 am. I was quite

Assalamualaikum... rasanya masih belum terlewat untuk mengucapkan Selamat Menyambut Bulan Ramadhan yang penuh dengan barakah ini. Semoga segala amal ibadah kita di sepanjang Ramadhan ini lebih baik dari tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Semoga Ramadhan kali ini mendorong satu perubahan baru di dalam hidup kita. Semoga segala amal ibadah yang dilakukan di sepanjang Ramadhan kali ini diterima Allah. Insya Allah. =)

When I was in UK, my friends asked me to design the wording/font for their Ju Jitsu Club T-shirt. These are the designs. I used human figures doing the jitsu to represent each word. I think my friends have them printed on the shirts but I couldn't remember how they put the designs together on the shirts. Perhaps I can ask them to take a picture of the shirt and I can post it here. =) Marjon Jitsu
