Just in case you haven't heard the news; I'm currently doing my teaching practice and it has been four weeks!
So, that day, it was NILAM (which the teacher has to bring the students to the library for a period for reading session) and as usual, some of the students are not really reading -- and this one girl came to me and say;
Student: Teacher, tengok tu Veron (a Chinese) baca buku Islam. He knows a lot about Islam. Dia pandai gila.. Saya tak pandai.
Me: Kenapa pula awak tak pandai?
Student: Saya tak ada A pun masa UPSR haritu..
Me: How many A(s) should not define your intelligence, my dear. (There you go, I give the animals'-exam-panjat-pokok-if-you-ever-heard-once analogy)
Student: Tapi... Still tak pandai. Semua orang nak tengok A. Mak saya pun nak A.
Sigh sigh sigh and sigh. These kids have been doctrined by the adults... So sad. What a sad truth. I believe in multiple intelligence. They have their own strength, not everyone should be a doctor, should be an engineer or so. Let them develop their very own potential in their very own field chosen by themselves.
But on another note, I ever taught a class on topic 'Ambition' and I'm so glad to know that the students nowadays have various kind of ambitions; they wanted to be a lawyer, open a boutique, chef, pilot, architect, news anchor, actress and so. Tak macam kitorang dulu, manjang nak jadi doktor atau engineer je hewhew.

My tarbiyyah journal; it keeps all the memories along the journey towards meeting my Lord.
Just a random post :)
Today, I brought mama to HSA for her monthly check-up. While on the road back, we chit-chatted about this one old man (we overheard the doctor in front us explaining to him about his disease) and we conclude that: semua penyakit hanyalah asbab untuk kita kembali bertemu Pencipta kita sahajaaaaaa :)) Sememangnya, as we grew old, kita punya system dalam badan semua dah mula melemah, dah mula ek-ok-ek-ok(couldnt function properly) sikit.
Itulah fitrah manusia.. Allah ciptakan kita bermula dari fasa kita lemah, tak mampu berbuat apa-apa (baby dan kanak kanak), kepada fasa kuat bertenaga (remaja dan waktu muda) kepada fasa asal kita; lemah, tak mampu berbuat apa-apa(tua).
Its just that, balik tu, I reaaaaally reflect myself. Kematian itu hadir pada bila-bila masa tanpa any signals. Tak kisahla di fasa mana pun kita.. Kan. Then, I reminisce those good old times masa kecik-kecik. Rinddddduuuu sangat sangat waktu kecik-kecik dulu.
Rindu masa sekolah dekat SKBU 2, sekolah yg paling best! Pergi sekolah naik satu kereta, kereta mak cik Jah- 5 orang ramai-ramai. Duduk taman Munsyi pun paling the best. Sebab masa tu rapat sgt dengan jiran. Selalu datang rumah, main cikgu2, main masak2, main dekat taman... Pastu zaman budak kecik lah yang terpaling rapat dengan semua adik beradik. Sekarang semua org membawa haluan sendiri.. Rapat pun, dah tak rapat mcm dulu like we can sleep together sambil tgk hindustan!! Sobs
Paling rindu juga zaman rumah arwah Atokyah dekat Kg Tunku... Maybe sebab rumah tu besar. Kitorang main badminton, main police entry, berebut buaian, panjat pokok Rambutan.... Ahh :') Suka sangat time barbeque! Main music chair, main poisonous box, tidur dalam khemah, ada sketsa pastu penat main, ambik ayam bbq tu, makan.. takyah kena kipas2. problem free betul :')
Lepastu, duduk atas bumbung dekat bilik kak Aina, main dkt ruang kecik abg Adzim, tidur ramai2 kat ruang tamu bentang toto, tengok Mary Kate&Ashley, main monopoly, saidina, scrabbles.. Kadang2 tidur Subang Jaya dekat rumah Athirah.. Hm rindunyaaa!!!
Rindu dekat arwah Atokyah and arwah maktok.. Arwah atokyah walaupun garang tapi selaaaaaalu buat lawak, usik cucu2 dia. Arwah maktok pula selalu back-up kalau kena marah dengan mama atau abah hehehe. Arwah maktok penuh dengan kelembutan dan kasih sayang... I reaally2 miisss her! Dulu masa arwah maktok meninggal, we all semua tak faham apa-apa. tetamu datang siap main sambut2 tetamu dekat pagar. Omg inesen us :') Pastu bila tengok arwah maktok diangkat and disembahyang jenazah kan sampai lah ke kubur duk meraung menangis tak henti semua... I remembered all that! I remembered the moment "semua ni bukan main2, maktok mmg dah takde", the moment tengok semua orang solatkan maktok, maktok dimasukkan ke liang lahad... It hurts so much :'(
Haih.. Waktu kecik-kecik memang best kan? Dunia kita adalah bergembira, enjoy the life! Huhu. Sekarang bila dah ada pelbagai tanggungjawab, not that I miss 'problem-free life' tapi... Entahla. Rasa macam nak sesangat pergi balik ke zaman kecik-kecik yg seronok amat sangat.
Tapi I guess semua org suka benda yang bersifat kekal. No one likes something temporary. Just look at ourselves, we hope our beauty is eternal. Haip jgn tipu! SIapa yg tak nak kulit sentiasa muda? Kalau tak nak, jgn jaga muka, takyah pakai pencuci muka! Lol ;p
Maknanya, our hearts long for Jannah, for the hereafter. Sebab sifat kekal tu cuma ada dekat sana. Eternal happiness, to be with our beloved ones forever and problem-free, can only be obtained in Jannah, there. So kita sebenarnya tak nak pun dekat dunia ni.. Dont get it wrong. Huhu. Perasaan tu buat rasa tak sabar nak mati... Tak sabar nak bertemu Allah, melihat wajah Allah. Dunia tersangat melelahkan...
Tapi itulah :) Apakah kamu menyangka kamu akan masuk syurga sedangkan belum sampai kepadamu ujian seperti mereka yg terdahulu.. Ye dok?
Lets live life to the fullest --- by obeying Allah wholeheartedly and... give up everything that displease Him ;) Lets! Infirru!
