Politik........kotor?

Aku ini siswa sarjana Ekonomi Politik,
Belajar aku bidang Politik,
Hari-hari hadap bahan dan buku politik,
Tapi aku pening kepala dengan politik.

Aku ini suka politik,
Sarapan pagi berita politik,
Makan tengah hari, makan malam berita politik,
Tapi aku pening kepala dengan politik.


Masa mula-mula aku buat keputusan memilih melanjutkan pelajaran peringkat sarjana dalam bidang ekonomi politik dulu, atas dasar aku memang suka politik, tapi politik masa belajar dalam kelas lain, politik realiti (Malaysia) lain. Semua ni buat aku pening. Politik itu bukan suatu yang kotor, manusia kotor palit benda kotor pada politik yang tak kotor buat politik jadi kotor!

Manusia, sudah-sudah lah main kotor, apa kau tak jijik dengan kotor, sebab kotor itu kotor, kotor bagi banyak penyakit, kotor bagi banyak masalah, kotor memang kotor!

Manusia, tak payah lah kau tuduh orang itu kotor kalau kau pun tak berhenti main kotor, kau tak sedar pula kau main kotor, sampaikan kau tambahkan kotor pada diri kau yang sudah sedia kotor!

P/s: Politik perlu ikut Islam, ada akhlak, ada etika, ada adab, ada tatatertib. Ikut Islam tiada politik kotor. :D

Are you okay?

I admit that when it comes to responsibilities, we don't need people to remind us, we will do the things ourselves.

When I write this entry, I'm thinking about my friend. Not so sure where she is now. She is (until now) one of my best friend when I was in secondary school. She is an orphan. In my whole life, I could remember that I did a mistake when I was in Form 1 to her. Big mistake which I really hope she will forgive me. That was not a big mistake for her, yet also a wrongdoing (dosa). As Prophet says we have to preserve the right to the orphan.

When I left secondary school and entered UIA almost 2 years, I met her via facebook. Seriously, I was so excited. From that meeting, I knew her mother has passed away. And she live with her brother. She furthered her studies in Diploma in IT. She was an outstanding student. Yet, she doesn't have chances to take degree. Alhamdulillah, Allah is the Best planner, she got job. But, now, I mean today, I didn't get any news from her. I wonder how's her situation right now. I always tell her, do contact me if anything happen or if she needs any help. I sent her few messages, but even today I didn't get any reply even once. 

Secara jujurnya, aku mengaku, aku memang risaukan dia. Aku rasa kalau sesuatu terjadi pada dia, aku tak akan dapat sebarang pesanan dari family dia sebab aku memang yakin family dia tak kenal aku. Dan sebenarnya, aku memang rasa bertanggungjawab sebagai kawan untuk buat dia senang walaupun keadaan menguji dia sedimikan rupa. Aku pernah terfikir, if aku ada duit yang banyak memang aku akan sponsor dia sambung degree. Dan bawak balik dia ke Kedah (sebab dia selalu cakap dia rindu Kedah). Kadang-kadang ujian macam ni buat kita sedar, kita bukan sorang-sorang duduk atas muka bumi ni, masih ada orang lain yang kta perlu fikir dan jaga haknya. Aku risau dan aku memang rasa bertanggungjawab kepada kawan aku ini. Ada beberapa kawan aku yang selalu cakap aku selalu sangat stress dengan masalah orang lain, entahla mana datang wording stress dalam hal macam ni, bukankah "when you do something good to other people make you feel better"?

P/s: Kawan, aku memang harap hang okay, tolong reply sms aku, atau post something di wall fb aku, atau PM aku di fb. Kalau ada masalah bagitau aku. This is what a friend for kan?? Aku sayang hang kerana Allah. :D

Oh My English.

When I finished the SPM almost 7 years ago, I took English class as a preparation (if) I will be selected to enter IIUM. Having said, if you being force by something else, by hook or by crook, you've to do, you should do, sometime you will do better than what you've expected. Yes, that's true, in the class, no one allowed to speak other languages except English. We had mock acting, dialogue, story telling etceteras. No text allowed, impromptu!  Students were given 2-3 minutes just to draft a skeleton on what they are going to present. Seriously, I did damned good acting. Haha. I mean quite good. Sometime, I wondered, why everything out from my mouth quite fluent (baca: lancar...no aaaa....aaaaa.....aaaaa...hehe). I'm not saying my english is good, but yeah, better than before taking the class. After all, I guessing that because of the confidence.

Okay, after that, I entered CFS IIUM. Same thing, no one allowed to speak Malay with lecturers. English ONLY. Sometime, I wrongly spoke (unintended) Malay. What I got is, "Sorry, what did you say just now?", "Sorry, I didnt get you", "Sorry, no Malay language", "Sorry, English please, this is UIA" and many more. So, with that treatment, I could feel my English quite improve from time to time.

Finish CFS. I entered Gombak, IIUM Main Campus. English is not really compulsory, I mean we can still speak in Malay with some lecturers, except Foreign students and lecturers and some Malay lecturers. Anyway, what I'm going to say is Malay language now could still being used. I could say that time, my English dropped! This is because when we are talking about language, it's something you should practice oftentimes, daily, because vocabulary couldnt be retrieve on the dot. You should always use the vocab, that's how you can get used with the vocab when you speak to other people. English only as our main language in class. I'm also not saying this all lecturers' false, UIA mistake, big NO! I'm saying, I shouldnt stop speaking English then, even some lecturers talk to me using Malay language. My mistake!

And now, when I'm taking masters, Malay is used in class. My English, started to become worse, I think. What I'm now doing in order to improve my English is by reading, reading, reading! And sometime, talk to friends, FB writing, talk to myself, write on a piece of paper and paste on room's wall, and so on. All I did just to help myself in improving my English.

Why I have to be good in English? Long time ago, I learnt Arabic, I'm not continuously using Arabic, so, now no more Arabic in myself right now, I just can understand  a little bit when people talking. So, after hard work I'd put during studying Arabic, everything fade away. And now I won't let it comes same thing for my English. Despite, I'm now still in process of learning Arabic, again!

Anyway, this is one of my endeavor, writing a blog post in English. At very beginning, I admit, this post has grammatical errors, wrong sentence structure, wrong usage of vocabulary and some other mistakes. As stated at the first place, this is just a first-step to improve my English.

Oh, YOU Allah, from YOU I seek aids and helps. May Allah ease my way. Inshaa Allah. Ameen.

Mereka Ada Di Jalan Lyrics - Iwan Fals

Pukul tiga sore hari dijalan yang belum jadi 

Aku melihat anak-anak kecil telanjang dada 

Telanjang kaki asyik mengejar bola
Kuhampiri kudekati lalu duduk ditanah
Yang lebih tinggi
Agar lebih jelas lihat dan rasakan
Semangat mereka keringat mereka
Dalam memenangkan permainan
Ramang kecil Kadir kecil
Menggiring bola dijalanan
Ruly kecil Riky kecil
Lika-liku jebolkan gawang
Tiang gawang puing-puing
Sisa bangunan yang tergusur
Tanah lapang hanya tinggal cerita
Yang nampak mata hanya para pembual saja
Anak kota tak mampu beli sepatu
Anak kota tak punya tanah lapang
Sepak bola menjadi barang yang mahal
Milik mereka yang punya uang saja
Dan sementara kita disini
Di jalan ini
Bola kaki dari plastik
Ditendang mampir ke langit
Pecahlah sudah kaca jendela hati
Sebab terkena bola tentu bukan salah mereka
Rony kecil Hery kecil
Gaya samba sodorkan bola
Nobon kecil Juki kecil
Jegal lawan amankan gawang
Cipto kecil Iswadi kecil
Tak tik tik tak terinjak paku
Yudo kecil Paslah kecil
Terkam bola jatuh menangis

Tiada yang mudah melainkan Engkau mudahkan Ya Allah...

Hari ini bermulalah semester baru bagi pengajian masters aku. Kelas pertama dan memang hanya ada satu subjek sahaja yang diambil untuk semester ini, iaitu Ekonomi Politik Islam tadi bermula jam 10 pagi hingga 1 tengah hari.

Semester ini bakal membentangkan kertas kerja di Medan pada bulan April.

Semester ini perlu siapkan chapter 1,2,3, dan mungkin 4 dissertation.

Malam ini kawan baik aku akan fly  ke Australia dan entah bila lagi akan berjumpa.

Ya Allah, mudahkan semuanya bagi aku.

Allahumma yassir.
