Forgiving You Forgiving Me

Wow! Look how time flies! (Not at the sky please!). We have been marching tirelessly and relentlessly until now. Now we have come into a crucial stage - the transition period of Mock and Final Exam. (Again, not chemistry for god sake!) As for Muslims, we are fulfilling our fasting prayer as act of devotion to the God and eternal Hereafter. Soon, we will be celebrating the Hari Raya Aidilfitri as the significant event of our victory completing one-month fasting prayer.
Because of that as well, we will be performing 'forgiving ceremony' to mark a new beginning of a 'new us' which our sins have been washed away together with the sweat and hunger in Ramadhan. When I was small, I used to hate this ceremony because I don't understand why people are crying at that time. And they were hugging and shaking their hands, together with repetitively saying sorry of their bad deeds to all people in the living room in my grand dad and mum's house. Now, I realize the importance of having this ceremony not onlt at that month but anytime for the sake of enhancing the camaraderie between us and all the people that we know.
Since Syawal is approaching, I hereby take this opportunity to ask the forgiveness from all of you, family members, the readers of my blog, lecturers, friends, and anybody that directly or indirectly being offended by my words or actions as ex-President of Our Club (formerly known as GAP Club or presently known as ICON Club), student (lecturers - sorry for not completing your homework and playing around in your class) , coursemates, classmates, housemates, roommates (Syahir & Ali), neighbour, mosquemates and finally as your friend that is not perfect rather than you that always concern of my well being. Friends or to be precise, the members of OUR Club, bear in mind that, anything that I have done is actually for your well being. In my duty dictionary, I will never jeopardize all of your position into a state which can be a nuisance or obstacle to you especially your studies.
Whatever it is, 'to err is human, to forgive is divine' says my past self whose saves India from the clutches of the British. As final approaching, all I can ask from you is forgiveness and your bless as it can help me to lead a calmer life and create a better environment for me to study and excel at the end of AUSMAT. Honestly, at the beginning, I'm not comfortable in KBU environment (because I'm a Mama boy. Hehehe...) but it did not stop me to be able to interact with all the people in or outside of KBU. With all do respect, I proposed that all KBU blog writer especially AUSMAT students can take the effort to write something (maybe you are an angel, no apologizes to be said) that can be your expression and feel better even a bit so that you can release your catharsis that suppress your potential ability for the final (wah!!!). Well, it is something I called a farewell before we end our course. Oh yeah, another thing is thanks to all of you that help me to struggle beside me in facing all the hardships of AUSMAT. Maybe not the help I want but at least there is still somebody walk beside me and consoling the feeling of loneliness once in a while.
With this, I signifies the ending of writing my last blog for EALD subject. (Sorry for any inconvenience to Miss Chan if I didn't update my blog frequently. Hehehe...) Assignment accomplished! See ya around when I start to write my blog again after final. (maybe different blog, same or not. It doesn't matter bacause it will still have my thought there).

Enough is enough!!!!

Ok everybody, tats it, the title said it already, my heart keep beating for it already. Enough is enough!!!
It makes me sick with the smell of burning air everyday. It causes me vommit to see the ocean of kindness to be polluted by the human's greed and selfishness. I got headache to think all the solutions to make everything right whereas it will get to its original condition without any updates done on it. I kept losing the one I loved and valued without realising it. The steps that I made just accelerate me further away from the end. Finally, I jump into my consciousness, the biological experience that I had all these while is separated into 2 parts; life and world...

Life taught me to be kind and apply the good values, world taught me the other way round...

Life is fair to me, world is always taking its cruelty into the next level when I thought it is enough for me...

Life made me think there is a place for me and everybody, world is making the place for one person only...

Oh ya, finally, life is life, world is us, the mankind...

P.S.: Both life and world is not what I want or maybe need, but I always will be a
survivalist indeed...

Get Your Game On!

Hey guys (and girls of course!), long time no see, I’ve been gone through trial and triumph. Believe me, it’s really a damn moment for me. Sigh, whatever it is, let bygones be bygones. Ok, get to our topic for our discussion, what kind of game that I’m talking about? It is one of my most favourite games. Can’t guess it huh? It is……. Yu Gi Oh!!! Fantastic! Bombastic! Fun! Ecstatic! World wide phenomenon! And of course, full of traps and tricks….
Tricky you say? Yup! It is a game requires 40 cards minimum and 80 cards maximum (Oh you can get it at the Play Station & Computer Games shop.). The categories of the cards are divided into three, that is monster, spell and trap cards. There is no limit of cards entrance for each category (because it’s up to your strategy! Daaa…). To play it, you have to go through 6 phases; Standby Phase (SP), Main Phase 1 (MP1), Battle Phase (BP), Main Phase 2 (MP2) and End Phase (EP). Obviously, battle phase is the best phase for me as I can use my monster to attack my opponent’s Life Point (LP). Aiya, I forgotten to explain what is LP, LP is actually the indicator of your life point that starts from 8000 (or whatever value you and your opponent agree) and if you hit the zero, you lose the game. For spell and trap, both aspects meant to enhance the attack and defense of your monster and decrease the power of your opponent’s threat from the other side.
Now, what interests me, it’s about the various strategies we can play, either rely wholly on the monsters, spells or trap cards. You can somehow know what your opponent trying to do and you can manipulate the outcome of the duel. If you can do it, you are truly a duelist (maybe the recognition you can get it from the official tournament). So, I can see this game can be practice for me to do analysis of my path in life generally and realize that not everything will work as your opponent has a better luck than you. There is even a series of anime series based on this game but some of the rules and regulations have been altered in that game so that the main character can win against the evil. I also have its emulator (copy from Izzat, thanks dude) in my laptop. Haha, that’s all folks! I want to have plenty rest to recover from my fever and ha…ha…hachoom! my running nose. Not to mention my cough as well. So, what are you guys waiting for? Get your game on!

Born to Lead…

Hype you guys! Miss me? Ah, save it to yourself, I don’t need it. Haha, back to the title, you over there, are you a leader? How about the other you? No? Not sure? Murtabak ah? Just kidding, how you guys define leadership? Is it Mr. President of our club a leader or just a manager that tries to look good in front the public? Come, let us see few opinions and mine as well.
Alan Keith of Genentech who said "Leadership is ultimately about creating a way for people to contribute to making something extraordinary happen."(Hmm, sort of). Other than that, leadership has been described as the “process of social influence in which one person is able to enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task”. There have been a lot of related theories regarding the true definition of leadership but for me, leader is actually a person that led not only a group of people but himself to accomplish something big in his life. You see, a leader should not only be in a big organization but it’s already in yourself as you can exhibit the quality of a leader.
It is just damn hard to be a true leader, why you ask me? It is because there are no real guidelines (or Leadership for Dummies book) for us to determine the pathway of a leader to grow and develop. In lament term, there is no benchmark for us to see who has the potential of leader among us. Nevertheless, we, of course, have 2 kind of leader in this world. One, he or she will like to see us in suffer just to fulfill his or her wishes. The other one will try his or her best to reduce the impact and maximize the profit for not only him or her but the rest of us.
Besides, I believe a leader should know the value of right, wrong, good and bad. It is totally wrong when you equate the value of right to good and wrong to bad. Somehow, you feel in certain part of your life, there are things you done are good but it is wrong and vice versa. A leader should know about this more than anybody because it is going to determine your status of leadership. Of course, this also another aspect that separates a leader from a manager.
A leader also has to touch the heart of other people because they are capable to do that. My father always said to me, a leader is a good listener. Leader has the tendency of being street counselor whom most people will get the help from him or her regarding any problem. The leader that done this before throughout his world conquest is Alexander the Great who always visits his soldier camp to hear them out and compare number of scars in the battlefield. This also shows that he has a great social skill as well. I think that’s all folks or I’ll be late for my class. Yikes, chow first!

You Design What?

We meet again, I have to do this post straight away as to replace my ‘missing post’ for last week. Now, if you don’t mind, the title reflects on architecture in depth. It also branches from engineering, actually. The word architecture even derived from Latin, architectura which means master builder. As a process, architecture is the activity of designing and constructing buildings by a person or a computer, primarily to provide shelter. A wider definition often includes the design of the total built environment, from the macro level of how a building integrates with its surrounding landscape to the micro level of architectural or construction details and, sometimes, furniture. Wider still, architecture is the activity of designing any kind of system.
Now, I read in Wikipedia that a good design should obey these 3 principles; that is durability, utility and beauty. It can also mean that the design should remain in good condition at all times, useful and can raise other people spirit when they see it. Architects can obtain this valuable piece of information from the earliest written work (De architectura), by the Roman architect Vitruvius in the early 1st century CE. According to Vitruvius, the architect should strive to fulfill each of these three attributes as well as possible. (Hah, I know it’s going to be hard for the architect, so I truly respect to all architecture students. *salute*)
The progress of architecture can be divided into several era; classicsm, medieval, renaissancism and modernism. (If I’m not mistaken it is from the architecture board in KBU International College). Each parts of the era show how architecture develops into one of the well known field in the world. From religion to basic necessities of human being, architecture has become a medium for human being to express their feelings and ideas on something. In my opinion, if you ask me, architecture is more to the manifestation of the designer’s mind to the society. Whatever it is, only a creative person has his or her own way to define this magnificent field. Oh yeah, the building that I like so far is the National Centre for the Performing Arts (China) as it comprises psychology onto its design. Not only that, it also has a great sound system which really has the impact on the audience and completely transforms them into a new person as they leave the place. Thanks to its architect, Paul Andreu whom is a French citizen that started the construction in December 2001 and the inaugural concert was officially held in December 2007. That’s all for today, folks. You want to find it more, google and yahoo are always there for you. Fielen Dank, everybody!

Happy-Go-Lucky...

What’s up, your guys? How’s everything? I’m good, nothing much to be mentioned about myself. Ok, skip to the point, are you happy now? I mean, do you happy with your life? No? I heard some say yes. Whatever it is, I’m very happy with my life. Or maybe, I think I am the happiest person in the life (either one). Haha, you want to know why? This is my own definition of happiness.
My first happiness started when I was born to this world, crying with tears of joy. I believe it’s because the God has given the opportunity to me to face endless obstacles and enjoy the benefit of powerless human using everything of what do you have and acquire in life. Other than that, I considered myself that time happy because my parents also happy that they can finally have the values and experiences they learnt before they got married applied in our family. Until now, they still strongly united and I’m very grateful for their teachings on me because that’s the ultimate prove of love towards me.
Secondly, I’m very happy because of my teachers (and lecturers) has enlightened me with wonderful things in this world. They did a good job in opening my eyes to the positive and negative side of the world. From kindergarten to college, I’m too scolded by them but it’s all for reason behind it. In addition, I’m also happy for my brother, sisters, relatives, best friend and anybody directly and indirectly related to me. Again, why? It’s simple, they are always there for me regardless of the situation. Although I have been hurt by my enemy, backstabbed by my own friends and betrayed by lovers-to-be, I’m still really really really ok cause God has replaced all of them with better ones in the future.
Thirdly, I’m happy because every single hardships that I face has changed into good things so far. It’s even better when I see other people happy, I don’t know why, maybe it’s my character that always supports others. I don’t get it when people kept complaining about their mishaps until they get depressed about it and talked to nobody especially to the person he or she dislikes, hoping they can get ‘erase’ the person from their life. Face it, God will put you everyday confronting that person, physically and mentally. At the end, you blame your mishaps wholly on fate, whereas it’s their choice that determines their level of their misery. Perhaps, for me, God also wants me to accomplish my objectives in life and becomes stronger in the future. Somebody said to me, ’What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’. That buddy is damn right. Trust me, it doesn’t matter how much more obstacles you are going to face but it is more to why. And be optimistic as you can’t imagine what the destiny stores for you. Again, it’s up to you to decide. Thank you for your happiness.

Bla… Bla… Bla…

“We are the best of the best, gentlemen. You know, what is behind that wall? Immortality, take it, it’s yours!” –Achilles (Spartan)

Guten Tag, alle! (in German, good day, everyone!) Maybe, you heard this before. I think when we want to say in public, especially encouraging to other people, this is the thing you should say. That’s right folks, today I’m going to talk about rhetoric: the art of speaking eloquently.

First of all, we have to know “why” we speak in public. Most of them failed the purpose of rhetoric speaking which eventually it is the ultimate reason why they can’t even utter a single word at the stage. Do you know that no. 1 fear in US is not spiders, snakes but public speaking?! Hah! I know it’s quite surprising but that’s the reality, mates. In history, the Romans will elect their leader which has the capability to speak in public effectively to convey message done by the Council. For example, Julius Cesar is the men who responsible in influence his pupil to expand Rom by conquer the other place nearby and he became the Emperor which he abolished the Council later.

Now, we already know “why”, next, we approach on how we can convey our message efficiently to the audience. Again, you must know what are the purpose and your targeted audience. If you have kids as your listener, don’t you ever harsh on them and use softer tone as they are growing and trying to understand the world they live in. Other than that, you can apply the same thing to the elderly or people with higher rank than you. Nevertheless, for army or to motivate other people, we can use harsher tone and use stronger word together with action that implies the same thing. This will ultimately brings powerful message and probably you can win the war easily!

Haha, still worry huh? Nah, my father always said to me, to speak in front of other people, of course, you will be scared, but you can convert it to energy and energy will convert to effort. Make sense? How about the butterflies in your stomach slowly being digested and sap their energy to do the speaking? In short, just be confident, and focus to the task, not to the fear of the task. Before I end my post, I would like to announce that I’m not going to use Facebook and MSN messenger for one-year period. If you want to send me a message, just kindly use the chatbox and don’t ya ever use unnecessary language in it. Ok, thank you for your time, folks!

War Strategies

Peace be upon to you, ladies and gentlemen. What’s up, everybody? I hope you are having good time at whenever, wherever or with whatever. Thanks to my members of the club that participate the Chinese New Year Open House, a great kick start for the club for this year, actually. Ok, let get down to the business, today, meine Damen und Herren, (if you can speak German, it means ladies and gentlemen), I am going to talk something at is long time has been one of my interests since little. One and only, (if nobody speak about it), WAR STRATEGIES!

If you notice, war has been one of the commonest things in mankind history. That’s one thing we learn (or might as well ignore it). But, one particular interest that I observed closely is, how those people can win the war. So, we can define the strategy as “how” or “silent tool” to defeat opponents in the war. I am actually quite amused with all sort of tactics and techniques used in the past to outwit their enemies in the war using intelligence and psychology.

For example, In the dawn of human civilization, Alexander the Great, one of the greatest leader of all time, used to ask his army to knock hard on the shield which at their left hand with their sword to make the enemy feel unconfident to continue with their action. Apart from that, one of the strategists in early-time China, used hot air balloon to bypass a city that heavily guarded. He just used 1,000 out of 10,000 soldiers at that time. Other than that, Khalid al-Walid, which is one of the most brilliant army commanders in Islam, apply the law of psychology of which the enemy thought the reinforcement for Moslem army has arrived and they ran back to their country. All these stories are somehow making me feel ecstatic about the winning of the war in much more honorable way.

So, I started to find Red Alert 3, Rise of Nations and Civilizations as games that become my practice in testing out my analysis skill. Anyway, I can play as a great commander leads its battalion to the victory tag. But, somehow, as our world evolves, science and technology has reduced the capability and creativity of mankind to defeat enemies in war. In lament term, war nowadays simply a “show” to see which country has the most powerful weapon, instead of courage of a soldier and the intelligence of a commander. We can take Israel as the “best example” for this statement, they used the white phosphorus bomb (one of the forbidden weapons listed in UN) to kill innocent women and children mercilessly. In my opinion, I do not consider as a war, I define it as more to ethnic cleansing which Israel wants every single corner of Palestine to be occupied with their own citizen.

So, do you feel interested to know more about these brilliant war strategies and tactics? What say you? I will say that, you can refer Sun Tzu: Art of War as the fundamental understanding of war strategies. Hey, do not forget, you can apply most of the concept from it into daily life routine such as business and studying for your examination. What’s more, you can watch Master and Commander: Far Side of the World, Battle of Wits and Saving Private Ryan. I think that’s all, or not I will talk for pages just to satisfy my heart. Hihi, ok see ya in the next post.

Engineering – Mechatronic

We meet once again, ladies and gentlemen. Oh yeah, another holiday just in time to give me a-seventh-heaven rest out of the hectic life of a college student. Relief, huh? Refering to the title now, all of you must be wondering the details and history of engineering that set the course of human development in applying physics in our daily life (do you?). (Whatever) Actually, I’m writing this because recently, there was a Robo-Fair 2009 held in Cineleisure which kind of interesting in terms of the achievement of university student in mastering that field. Well, let’s get started for our topic!

If I’m not mistaken, engineering comes from the word engine which originates from the Latin word, ingenium that defines as “innate quality, especially mental power, hence a clever invention.” The history of this field set back as early as Archimedes era which he designed a number of inventions that obey the rule of physics. Before him, Imhotep was the first civil engineer who designed the Great Pyramid. Now, as the era of modernization is taking place all over the place, a lot of branches of engineering are made to sustain the need of human being. For instance, there are electrical & electronic engineering (E & E), computer engineering, material engineering, molecular engineering and latest, robotic engineering (my favourite!!!).

Now, I would like to narrow down the scope of engineering to my cup of tea. You see, mechatronic engineering or also known as robotic engineering is the combination of mechanical engineering, electronic engineering and computer engineering. This field is quite new and has the toughest challenge within it because the engineer have to build a machine or the lament term, a robot to somehow adapt to the targeted environment and simultaneously fulfill the objective of its creation. Simple you say? Nah, actually, engineers have to corporate and achieve consensus with others in order to produce the most optimum robot in the most aspects such as material used, programmes, features of the robot and so on.

As for robots, they have to posess 3 things in common; input (sensors), body and output (reaction). Lack of one of these, they can’t categorized themselves as what they are. The word robot was derived to the public by Czech writer Karel Čapek in his play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots), which premiered in 1921. The robots, sooner or later, were heavily used in industrial factory to replace the manpower to increase the efficiency of line production such as automobile installation. In present, the researchers are focused more on constructing humanoid, or simply a robot with human characteristics on it. This is because they can be used in giving out service to human as a maid who can clean, wash or cook. If you can’t get it, it’s just like the I Robot (which at the end, the robots rebel and fought against human for their freedom). To know more about this field, please feel free to surf the net or specifically Wikipedia. Hmm, I think that’s all in my mind. Catch up the next chapter of my discussion, ya? See ya!

Venus VS Mars!!!

Hey! (Sigh) What a relief! I can say it is a blessing to have a week off from the college, (sorry, I don’t mean I hate the classes, but I just need some time to have a break and reorganized myself.) Ok, let see, umm, how about we talk one of the topic which you guys maybe like to talk about when you meet up in the café? (And time to kill, of course!)

It seems that throughout the history of mankind, the society has witnessed remarkable event and undisputedly horror of men’s and women’s ups and downs. So, the one million dollar question is, “Who is the best, men or women?” I bet many of us knew the answer or some knew but still insists that they are more superior to the other gender. Believe me, I have a better explanation that perhaps can satisfy most of you who reads this post.

Ok, let’s see from the biological aspect, men were made stronger than women because their upper abdomen is much bigger than the opposite gender. In contrast, women are considered weak, I mean, they are less capable in terms of physical strength because their lower abdomen are basically stronger than the upper ones. So, indeed, men are brawnier than women. Next, if you observe from the psychological context, men are more playful than women and that’s natural because that’s the way of them to preserve their rationality and far-sightedness. Meanwhile, women are more focused in getting their objective achieved and willing to let their pleasure go to enjoy greater benefit in the future. Oh yeah, now I get it, the other purpose of marriage is simply to balance the way of thinking of the couple. That’s not hard to think about it, isn’t it?

Then, in past, we notice that men are more famous and respected for their wisdom, strength and leadership, such as Prophet Muhammad, Alexander The Great, Hannibal, Khalid al-Walid (if you know him),Napoleon Bonaparte, Mahatma Gandhi and etc. Women are less distinguished but still they make difference in the way of society looking them like Queen Elizabeth I that abolished rules that implied restriction on women in England during her era. In present, women are judged based on their performance in academic and capable in completing men’s job efficiently and vice versa for men. Others changed their genital organ just to be like the opposite ones because they can’t cope their stress and psychology confusion and abuse. So, both had changed the world where we live in and equalize their position as high as the sky and low as the ground. All in all, it doesn’t matter who beats who, but it will be a better thing for both gender to use what they possess and acquire and fulfill their responsibilities toward themselves and people around them rather than you waste your time criticize others without learning any lesson at all. That’s all, my friends for this post. Stay put for the next post, ya?

Science VS Art

Good day, everybody! Now, I had gained more and more confidence in writing this blog already. Indeed, journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. (Ya ya, whatever.) So, to cut it short, I will carry on with my opinion on science and art which quite contradict in general but actually is the same. (Hahaha, weird right?) Here are my reasons to support my stand.
Before we discuss the topic any further, I feel that it is wise to know the background of the topic. Now, why there must be equations or theories in our life? Well, the answer is just simple. It is just to simplify our life? (Huh, what the heck I am talking about?) Yes, it is quite true though, because science helps us to somehow estimate certain values or predict the occurrence of something so that we can anticipate and ready for it as a safety precaution. For example, a forensic scientist needs to calculate the projection angle of a bullet that penetrates the body of a victim and an astronomer needs to estimate when and where will be the next solar eclipse happened. On the other hand, art also seem to be counterfeited the nature of science which it is full of flowery word and quite hard to understand the real meaning behind it. But, I bet the purpose of the poet, author and so on is to release their pent up emotion and express it literally rather than figuratively which Miss Chan called it catharsis.
Now, it is time to reveal my own point. You see, Tony Buzan (the famous Mind-mapping maker in the world) has created the concept of the art of science and the science of art. (Wow, I don’t know we can combine both.) Amazingly, this is the truth and we can use it to simplify our way of life. You must be wondering how, right? Art of science is actually telling us that science is not necessarily boring or complicated. We can use our own imagination to illustrate natural phenomenon well in our mind. Like the greatest scientist of 20th century said, imagination is more important than knowledge. This concept can be applied using the mind mapping, charts and pictures to smoothen the flow of our ideas and knowledge about science generally. In contrast, art is not compulsorily pretty in scattering objects and pattern on big canvasses. Using the right techniques, we can organize the features of our painting such as background, harmony, or what-so-ever. For instance, Albert Einstein used to ask his students to imagine circling around the solar system (which later on points that the universe is actually curvy, not continuously in straight line) and Mozart’s note usually organized; making every concert he conducted into a success which is going to be remembered in the history of music.
Next, problems and solutions, students nowadays have problem in relating and applying their knowledge that they learned into their daily life. Most of them thought reading and memorizing is the only way to study (Wrong thinking!!!). Moreover, they just blindly doing notes in black and white and do not making effort to modify it into any proper form to accommodate the need of using it (for example, during the examination). Now, we have the Tony Buzan’s concept as our solution. The student can make their note as colourful as the rainbow (Do you know the efficiency of using colourful notes is 75 %?). With these, we are not only pass with flying colours but also stimulate our senses (our eyes especially).
All in all, we can lead our life even easier and achieve success in much more meaningful way by using science and art efficiently. There is no such thing as science versus art. It is the matter of using them until certain extent. Please bear in mind that our left brain is controlling area of science and the right brain is mainly on art section in our mind. So, train both of them to boost your intelligence to the maximum. The only person who has the ability to do it in the history of mankind is Leonardo Da Vinci (engineer, architect, scientist, poet, singer etc). That’s all, folks! Until then, bye bye!

Education

Hello there, hmm, actually, I still feel quite awkward in writing blog. The reason is I hate to influence other people’s mind and worse still, it may make other people feel uneasy on me. So, just forgive for any inconvenience that I caused. (No hard feeling ya?). But, for Miss Chan and academic purposes, I will give my best in expressing my point of view.

You see, my family and I always think that education will be forever our main priority in our life. Hence, I will start with education. First, I would like to question,” What is the definition of education?” Well, the answer could be subjective, but from my point of view, education can be defined as the process of learning or teaching or simply obtain and pass knowledge around us or in bigger context, around the world. Nevertheless, education has been around since the dawn of human civilization. This has placed a great deal of importance in education that eventually becomes a universal yardstick in almost aspect of our life.

In past, humans are mostly known for his physical strength and the number of land he conquered throughout the world. Moreover, the wealth that possessed by a person would make him to be recognized in the pages of history. But, all that are about to change. In era of globalization, people are now analyzed from the level of his or her education. Apart from that, education will give the weaker gender an equal opportunity to succeed and thrive for success. Besides that, education is now a necessity for people in present as it will be one of the requirements to further studies and job interviews. Automatically, education is now becoming stepping stone for most people to succeed in this world.

In terms of society and country, education is one of the most important features to reflect ones country’s image. For instance, in Europe itself, about 90% of citizens there managed to get themselves into higher institutions and graduate at the end. This shows they really value knowledge throughout their life which useful to be applied even after their graduation. Furthermore, they use the concept of life learning that emphasize the practicality on applying the knowledge ones learnt before. In my opinion, education is not passing your exams and tests with flying colors or places you as being no. 1 in your class but, education is imperative in gaining knowledge from the day you were born and use it in order to make our life easier.

Of course, there are plenty of ways to execute education in life such as reading, discussion, seminars and so on but, it will be wise to start at the very young age. I’m not saying that old people can’t learn or we should stop educate ourselves when we are old. What I’m trying to say here is to have a greater impact of education, we must sow the seed first rather than plant the tree later. Simply, I can say that the young minds should be easier to be educated than the old ones as they are quite ‘fragile’ and still looking for their identities. This is quite common in everywhere which kids are turned into ‘long-term investments’ as parents would spend every single penny in their pocket and utilize every ‘connections’ they have just to make sure their children get themselves into the best school.

In short, education is one of the things that we should have in life. Undeniably, it benefits us in many ways. One of my friends told me, “What’s the point of having Ferrari car if you don’t have brain at all?” (Well, she’s right) This only proves one thing, ladies and gentlemen; indeed, knowledge is power. Until then, see you next time in the next post.

Hello everybody!!!

Greetings to everyone, there is no need formalities. I believe most people recognize me as Amin (More details on 'About Me'). So, talking about myself, I am the eldest among my siblings. My dad works as free lance consultant (believe me, he has multiple talents which quite amusing), whereas my mum is a public relation officer at PERKESO (She is the greatest mum in the whole wide world).
I am actually quite optimistic and flexible person (No, I am not a contorist) that really helps me to adapt in any environment (I think). Maybe I'm not that handsome compared to Brad Pitt or The Jonas Brothers, but hey, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Oh yeah, I am family man. I put my family as my priority. Another thing is, I got the feeling which I can change the world with my own bare hands in the future. I don't know how, but it is just a matter of time. Before I forget, guardian is the definition of my name (Muhaimin). I always believe that "It's not what I am underneath but, what I do that defines me". By this I mean, action speaks louder than word. Until then, you will have more than meets the eyes later. See ya!
