When its over...
Thank God I made it! The presentation wasn't as bad as I expected earlier. I feel like flying... and kinda relieved for a while coz lesser stuff to be piled up in my head! Thanks alot for those (Lobo, Sashi, Sentil, Desmond & Victor) that helped me out... at last, I'm able to get rid off my stage fright. This is just an intro of what we're going to have next term... more adventure = more fun!
Gambar Jamuan Aidilfitri PMC (aku tak upload lagik)... 250+ flocked to Exam Hall... this is the first time the PMCSA ever held such a function. Kudos to all commitee members for making this unique event happened. Aritu ari yg paling memeningkan kepale... tensed up gile.... tapi... Alhamdulillah, kuay tiow kari n soto sempat jugak siap. Terima kasih Asriah, Syazwani, Zati, Jihan, Syarifah, and Wan... kerna tolong masak soto n kari. Terima kasih juga Huda, Zaim n Syafeq kerna mencuba masak jemput2 walaupon aku salah beli tepung... mekaseh Islah, Izham & Anuar dan sesape lg... there's awful lot of lesson to be learnt in time... sblom PMCSA buat function lg nanti...
Sleep - Tidur
Back in hey day when I was in Form 1, sleeping during classes was like a routine. Not doing it means no life I suppose. So most of my teachers labelled me as 'sleepy guy'... and way until Form 5, that unique name still haunted me. And now, I still feel like sleeping during lectures... :P
Sebenarnya aku tertidur tadi... more or less setengah jam depan skrin. Agaknya aku letih sgt kot. Letih pasal aku anaemic? Naaaa.... Last nite aku mmg tensed gile. Tetibe nervous lelebeh about presentation yg bakal aku buat Monday nih dengan partner aku.
Tidur... bile lecture terlalu bosan, maka aku slalunyer akan masuk ke 'sleeping mode'. Mata jadi kuyu, tangan pon dah mule malas nak bergerak. Tanpa disedari, 10 saat boleh hilang sekelip mata. Time tutup mata lain, bukak mata dah masuk point lain dalam lecture plak. Memang memeningkan kepala, pasal aku kene kaychap balek... and worse, aku terus missing the whole point. Secara umumnya, tidur dalam lecture mmg common kalau lecture tu mmg boring ie monotonous, passionless voice. Ni yg aku kene avoid from... nak buat lecture yg menarik, kene ade passion, that drives you. Sometimes, it doesn't mean that if you know your part really well, you'll make good presentation. It just... errr you have to say it clearly, with passion. Show them that you're really trying to make them understand the whole picture... Yaaaa!!! I will try my best!

Selamat Hari Raya... Maaf Zahir & Batin...
We had 'one day off' for the whole day. I skipped 3 classes plus Chemistry tutorial... you're really really bad Abadi... :P ...Yeah we tend to say... "Who gives the crap?... Its just once in a while...". So all the Malaysians from RC, UCD, TCD, DBS, Portobello and all sorts of unis flooded Malaysia Hall... When I get myself in the "takbir", I feel like crying, despite the presence of the others that really open up a chance to have a long chitchat.... Indeed, it was truly a nice experience too, esp. seeing our brothers and sisters in such a lovely traditional costumes on that day. Something that was quite different from what I've had in Perth last year... So it's been 2 years of celebrating Eid abroad...
Hari raya kali ini rase lebih meriah laaa. Maybe pasal ramai manusia kat sini. Tak sangka, aku ke Eddie Rockets teguk shake malam 1 Syawal. We had a good time there. Anwar, Izzy, Abu & Wan ade skali. Sedap jugak Choc Shake die, pekene plak dengan Moby Dick...
Tapi, Ramadhan yg berlalu tak dpt dimanfaatkan sepenuhnya. Rase rugi. Tapi lagi elok la aku rase dari tahun lepas. Nabi dah kate - Orang yg celake adalah org yg lagi teruk dari hari semalam. So Insya Allah jgnler aku tergolong dalam golongan tersebut.
Apepon, aku nak mintak maap kepada -
Diri-sendiri: Pasal tak dapat kawal nafsu. Asek ikut je. Aku kene review byk pasal diri aku. Ari tu call apest. Terima kasih byk kerana telah kasi opinion pasal diri aku. Yelah, aku tak nampak diri aku sangat. Serius. Kene ade org lain. Ever heard about NATO? Macam tu agaknya... time die cakap, terase ade big, giant needle prick my heart deeply. It hurts... but Alhamdulillah, aku tau jugak mane silapnye. Aku hanya manusia. Tapi mmg ade room for improvement, tu yg aku tanak tertinggal.
Aik.... aku rase aku type utk my parents, kwn2 tadi. Deyyyy mana pigi??
//Mak aihhh... penuh!
//Punyelah ramai... sampai tak terkenal semuanya...
Right after solat sunat eidulfitr, ade makan-makan... lodeh, kuah kacang & ayam masak merah pon ade! MmMmMmmm... feel like home! Lepas zohor barulah Malaysia Hall mulai surut... banyak yg ke rumah Haji Fauzi and senior-senior...
//Photographers of the day... bile lagi nak bergambar dengan baju melayu/kurung???
//Behold! I really have no clue of what group (RC students perhaps?) this photo represent for... From left - Wan, Huda, Buff, Jihan, Elayni, Anuar, Abadi, and Izetti.
//Malaysia Boleh! Kita semua dari Malaysia, The Bolehland... Jalur Gemilang... merah membara semangat waja, putihmu bersih budi pekerti, kuning berdaulat payung negara... biru semangat kami semua... Empat belas melintang jalurnya... semua negeri dalam Malaysia...

I Feel Full Of Beans! will be moved to a new host
Soon this site will be hosted on www.gundala.com. So more pix can be uploaded, plus no more ads banner around. But at the moment, blogger seems problematic at times esp when publishing to FTP server, so as a precaution measure I'll keep this site running for a while at blogspot.com. Now I'm planning to migrate to MT too, but I need more time and idea to cheer it up!

Any Idea How To Get More Idea???
Hmmm... I've sat in front of the screen but still couldn't type even a single word... whats going on Abadi? Feel like sleeping? No? Yes? OOOo for God's sake please...
Anyway, yesterday PPIMI had a Tilawah Al-Quran competition at Malaysia Hall. I got another thing to do, but somehow I ended up being there whole evening. I was on my way to photo lab, suddenly I bumped with my fellas that wanted to go for a soccer match at unknown park. We had a short conversation on the match whereabout... and I decided to join them if and only if I've taken my photos at the lab... and go there by myself. But then, something wrong happened with my brain. I can't even recall which bus to take to, and the most important, which park... Nooooooo....
So then I just dumped the whole plan, and gave Wan a ring, and ask him if he is going to Malaysia Hall too. I knew I'm gonna be late for the Tadarus (reading the Quran in groups), but what the heck, I still have the chance to see the Tilawah Al-Quran competition.
Quite a bunch of guys attended, and surprisingly we received guests from as far as Galway, for the sake of the ukhwah... If I was in his position, I wouldn't even bother... hmmm... that's how evil I am... But, the whole competition was excellent! There was a time when a brother recites sentences about the punishment and mortality, I was shattered deeply... and that was my food for thought for that night.
Speaking of mortality, few days earlier, I received an email about the death of our sisters at Michigan, USA. It was an unfortunate death. Hope Allah will bless them... but the thing is, this incident woke me up, as I've nearly experienced my own demise few months ago. I can imagine whatever they've seen before being knocked down to death. Sound scary huh? Yes it is. Why? Simply because we're feeling that we're not ready for it yet...
So, from now on, be careful. Drive safe. Don't sleep while driving, or else you'll sleep forever. Listen to this song while driving... and you'll awake for the rest of the journey...
Iman Mutiara
Iman adalah mutiara
Di alam hati manusia
Yang meyakini
Allah Maha Esa, Maha Kuasa
Tanpamu iman bagaimanalah
Merasa diri hamba padaNya
Tanpamu iman bagaimanalah
Menjadi hamba Allah yang bertaqwa
Iman tak dapat diwarisi
Dari seorang ayah yang bertaqwa
Ia tak dapat dijual beli
Ia tiada di tepian pantai
Walau apapun caranya jua
Engkau mendaki gunung yang tinggi
Engkau merentas lautan api
Namun tak dapat jua dimiliki
Jika tidak kembali pada Allah...
Translation:
Faith is like a Pearl
Faith is like a pearl
Present in the human heart
Which believes in Allah
The Omnipotent and Omnipresent
Without you, faith
How could my heart submit to Allah
Without you, faith
How could I become a pious servant?
Faith cannot be inherited
From a pious father
It cannot be bought nor traded
It is not scattered just anywhere
Whatever your means may be
You may climb a steep mountain
You may cross a sea of fire
Still it will not come to you
Until you submit to Allah

Picture This...
Picture this. A library, a bookshelf and an encyclopaedia. Millions of encyclopaedia could be arranged in a bookshelf, and millions of bookshelf make up a huge library. So, we're talking about lots, really lots of information. And amazingly, this whole thing can be squeezed within 2 metres of thread. That's the analogy the information needed to create a complete human.
Picture this again. Flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and a bakery man. Will all the ingredients combined together automatically to become a cake without the bakery man? Absolutely not. Even, if you leave all the things for a trillion years, and when you come back, that thing will remain the same, not becoming cakes, biscuits or whatsoever.
Ok I guess I ran out of idea... Damn it!

excerpt from Fire Is A Curse?, a song by Butterfingers
Whether we are aware about it or not, Ramadhan is coming to an end. So, grab what you could before the door closes... who knows this would be your last chance? Allah has shown you the exact place on the map, but its totally up to you to decide the going...
And one more thing, today, marks exactly one month away for the coming exam that will be on Dec 12. And much lesser for the Biomedical Presentations (8th & 9th)... and I'm damn nervous! The race begins...
Ok I list down what's happened so far for the past few days:
-Had Iftar at Wan/Abu's place. Buff, Megat and Lan came to the feast. We had a good time, and sumptous meal too. Thanks to Abu & Wan!
-Booked two roundtrip flights for the winter break - Dublin>London and London>Hamburg. Now I should start planning my holiday with Wan. And I have to figure out how to save as much as I possibly could.
And I feel so much better today... Alhamdulillah... you are The One we should turn to everytime...

A Happy place?
Semalam aku ke tutorial physics. Kenny Winser yg ajar... Alhamdulillah setakat nih aku paham jugak laa ape yg die explain. Tapi yg aku tak bleh tahan pasal lawak die la. Die cite, last year ade oral exam utk sesape yg tak pass final. External examiner ngan die jadi panel.... so die pon tanye soalan pasal Compton Scattering dengan Pair Production - ni ade kaitan ngan atoms, electrons, ngan xray. Die tanye budak nih, "Soon after the electron was excited by absorption of photons, where does the electron goes then?". Budak tu tade clue langsung. Setelah memerah otak, die pon jawab, "It goes to its happy place?". Terus panel dua org tu gelak-gelak.... Aku pon gelak-gelak jugak laaa... heh lawak siut.

Greetings from afar... again??
I am quite happy today. Wan & Abu came here for the iftar, though it was a successful last-minute preparation. Hours before, we managed to have our photo taken for the Eid Mubarak Greeting column in our motherland's local press, be it Utusan or Berita Harian. Kudos to everyone, for dressing up nicely, albeit the usual cold weather, which is a clear sign of winter in Dublin. To me, I am delighted to see Baju Melayu & Baju Kurung around, maybe because I want to feel like home for a while...
//See salam perantauan here - I could see my friends at the State! ----> Pacaq (Arizona) and Ajat (Vanderbilt)
Ohh... on this Saturday there would be Ramadhan Bazaar at Malaysia Hall. So everyone's invited, more people, more merrier! And I've heard a rumour saying that TV3 will shoot Eid Mubarak greeting and then it will be on air during 1st day of Syawal. So this is the only chance you'd get to make yourself famous. Everybody in your hometown will talk about you... perhaps the dialogue exactly like these:
"ooOOooo... anaknya si Samad yang kat German masuk tv lahh..."
"Eh! Ini bukan si Jamal ke? Dulu selalu makan maggie same-same, tau tau dah kat USA yek..."
More Than A Name
And I saw this poem in a magazine. Its about Alzheimer's.
I too had a life, filled with laughter and tears.
We made wonderful plans for our later years.
And now here I am, in this of my own.
I'm lost and I'm frightened, and feel all alone.
Because of my illness, I'm no longer the same,
but reach out and touch me.
I'm more than a name.

Just got back from Clounskea Mosque for the daily iftar. I took several photos of the minaret with the moon in the background, and hopefully that would be a series of good shots. Also, I'm coming again maybe on Friday, with my tripod and remote control... plus I can use slower shutter speed rather that relying on anything that could be a camera's tripod like car's roof and at the same time risking my life should the alarm goes off!
Free food but without the adab?
Hmmm... kadang kala di bulan Ramadhan banyak fenomena yang menyayat hati boleh dilihat. Semasa berbuka tadi, kelihatan seorang kawan kita memakan beberapa ketul ayam di dulangnya dahulu, sebelum berganjak ke dulang yang lain... Ajaib? Manusia ini barangkali tak boleh makan nasi... hanya boleh makan ayam sahaja... Sebaiknya habiskanlah dulu hidangan di dulangnya... baru ke dulang orang lain... Walaupun percuma... tapi itu tetap rezeki dari Allah... Hmmm.... Alahai manusia...

Wow! Its been a while since my last update. I'm pretty busy at the moment... or just trying to get myself busy so that I could spend my time more effectively. Am I crazy, or just plain stupid?
Last weekend I went for a hiking trip to Glendalough, a remote place where Braveheart shooting took place few years back. It takes nearly an hour or so for the bus to get thru the winding road before it stopped exactly at our "beloved" primitive hut. No wonder they asked us to bring the sleeping bag, and fleece blanket in the first place! Ok just forget the sad part. Let's turn over a new leaf instead! The view up from the hill was breathtaking, not to mention the super-brisk wind that multiplies the total chill factor we were facing. The stream was crystal-clear, but going for a swim is definitely the biggest mistake ever ----> "Are you out of your mind or something?" The hiking part was superb coz we got to see nice scenery, like Kevin's Bed and so forth; although we had to fast, but hey... don't you ever realised that people used to fast during the Badar war? When we were hiking, the tiredness itself was never came across in our mind. But as soon as we started to lie down and take a short break, then you'll groan...ooouchhh... my legs hurts! Now, behold! Some pix to be look at...
//Had a break... but no Kitkat...Pancit... syukurler hiking trail tu senang...
//Sheeps... kinda reminds me of Ami Rozaidi... Midak ooo midak kaukah kambing itu?
//Serene... Note that the colour may not be as attractive... perhaps because of cloudy sky... bad timing :( Jauh lagi ooo... belum layak buat poskad nih
//Autumn leaves - Cornflakes and this are pretty much alike... :P
//Glendalough at distance... we have ancient monastery (St Kevin Monastery) and lower lake down there...
Ok... now some photos of PMC Sports Day. Sadly most of the photos I've taken were underexposed, but I managed to recover a portion of all the shot. Morale out of this sad story: Use suitable film!
//RC Basketball team - Defend!!!
//RC Basketball team - One on one match between Shafiq and anonymous UCD player...
//UCD & RC Netball players
And Trinity College Dublin organized their Med Day 2 weeks ago. And theirs not as impactful as UCD's where they had some kind of "human stampede" along the Grafton Street... Imagine hundreds of med students running along the mall!! Surely it did scare the hell out of RC fellas :P...
//TCD Buskers - You got the guts and the talent guys!
//TCD Lead guitarist - Mr Ireallydon'tknowhisname!

//Had a break... but no Kitkat...Pancit... syukurler hiking trail tu senang...
//Sheeps... kinda reminds me of Ami Rozaidi... Midak ooo midak kaukah kambing itu?
//Serene... Note that the colour may not be as attractive... perhaps because of cloudy sky... bad timing :( Jauh lagi ooo... belum layak buat poskad nih
//Autumn leaves - Cornflakes and this are pretty much alike... :P
//Glendalough at distance... we have ancient monastery (St Kevin Monastery) and lower lake down there...
Ok... now some photos of PMC Sports Day. Sadly most of the photos I've taken were underexposed, but I managed to recover a portion of all the shot. Morale out of this sad story: Use suitable film!
//RC Basketball team - Defend!!!
//RC Basketball team - One on one match between Shafiq and anonymous UCD player...
//UCD & RC Netball players
And Trinity College Dublin organized their Med Day 2 weeks ago. And theirs not as impactful as UCD's where they had some kind of "human stampede" along the Grafton Street... Imagine hundreds of med students running along the mall!! Surely it did scare the hell out of RC fellas :P...
//TCD Buskers - You got the guts and the talent guys!
