Motivation Quotation......

Aku meminta kepada Tuhan setangkai bunga, segar, Ia beri kaktus berduri. Aku minta kupu-kupu diberinya-Nya ulat berbulu. Aku sedih dan kecewa. Namun kemudian, kaktus itu berbunga indah sekali dan ulat itupun menjadi kupu-kupu yang sangat cantik. Itulah jalan Tuhan, indah pada masaNYA! Tuhan tidak memberi apa yang kita harapkan. Tapi Dia memberi apa yang kita perlukan. Kadang kala kita sedih, kecewa dan terluka. Tapi jauh di atas segalanya Dia sedang mengatur yang terbaik dalam kehidupan kita.............................................

Aku dan dia

Aku dan dia....

Punyai matlamat yang sama, Cara yang berbeza
Kajian aku kualitatif, Kajian dia kuantitatif
Kajian aku tiada pengaturcaraan, Kajian dia banyak melibatkan pengaturcaraan
Kajian aku melibatkan banyak perkataan, Kajian dia banyak melibatkan nombor
Kajian aku perlukan pengupasan yang sangat kompleks dan holistik, Kajian dia perlukan kupasan yang secara langsung dan ringkas tapi padat
Kajian aku melibatkan paradigma interpretif, Kajian dia tidak perlukan penerangan paradigma kerana sememangnya sudah terang lagi bersuluh dia adalah secara positivist
Kajian aku pada tahun pertama pengajian gelap gelita, Kajian dia diberi 'cahaya lilin' oleh penyelianya sejak awal lagi
Kajian aku memerlukan data utama dan data sekunder, Kajian dia hanya perlukan data sekunder

Walau jurang kami seakan langit dan bumi, Namun matlamat kami TETAP sama- PhD; maka secara automatik, kami perlu faham memahami dan banyak bertolak ansur untuk membuat sebarang 'pengorbananan' dalam semua aspek......aminnnnnnnnn

***** dia merujuk kepada teman sehidup sematiku @ suami tercinta yang juga mengharungi perjalanan solo ini bersama-sama......

aku Tak Pernah Menyerah

Sejak Usia Yang Mentah
aku Telah Melangkah
Mengenali

Hidup Yang Getir

Pada Tingkat Dewasa
aku Lebih Tercabar
Kehidupan Dalam Penitian
Onak Duri Datang Silih Berganti

Korus
AKU Tak Pernah Menyerah
Walau Badai Yang Melimpah
ku Aturi Tiap Langkah Dengan Gagah
Keringat ku Yang Mengalir
Perjuangan Tak Berakhir

Sehinggalah Ke Hujung Titian
Garis Yang Menamatkan
Perjalanan

Tangis Dalam Senyum Tiada Insan Yang Tahu
Tiada Insan Yang Bakal Mengerti
Jalanan ku Tidak Seindah Mimpi Oh

Tangis Dalam Senyum ku Tiada Insan Yang Tahu
Bahagia

Derita ku

Sebatang Kara

Just sharing some valuable story from AP Dr Norzaidi Daud...

I'm proud with his and her wife' s achievement ...and I'm attracted with his experience during his viva few years ago...can click here for details....

Can I dream being academicians like him??????even seems like impossible...but it is not wrong for dream it ?????Wallahaualam....

Supposedly....

Supposedly I fly yesterday with all my family to Veszprem,Hungary for presenting the paper in 5th KMO, but since my flight was cancelled due on volcanic ash effects where it just only inaccurate prediction.

I felt so annoying,irritating and discontented since I could not make it to disseminate my research findings. To buy new ticket is damnly expensive and my weaknesses is I cannot leave apart with my family. Why???because they are my strength without them, I could not achieve what I have been achived until today.Furthermore, it is very expensive fare already.
Even I try my best to avoid all the mixed feeling within went to retail theraphy few hours ago, but unwanted the feelings is too stubborn and I realise my attitude itself makes more complicated.

Hopefully my sv and the organizer will forgive me..not my fault at all....

Hikayat kura2.....

Dulu, kura2 itu terlalu perlahan bergerak..kura2 tua itu hanya berjalan ketika larat dan berhenti ketika penat.....namun kura2 itu tidak pernah mengalah walaupun pelbagai ujian dan halangan yang mendepani kura2 itu...kura2 itu sebenarnya sangat sedih sebab rakan2nya jauh meninggalkan dari belakang...rakan2nya terdiri daripada pelbagai ragam .....tapi kura2 itu memang tidak mengenal erti putus asa...kura2 itu bergerak dan bergerak sendirian dengan kadar yang konsisten dan kini sama sekali kura2 itu tidak menyangka dia dah tahun akhir pengajian(insyaallah...)......benarlah kata pepatah...biar lambat asalkan selamat ataupun sikit2 lama menjadi bukit..bukit apa tu?????kui kui.....

siapakah kura2 itu kalau bukan aku ........

Cabaran dan Dugaan

Cabaran 2008
*9 bulan pertama- bergilir2 ke sekolah memandangkan 2 kanak2 kecil perlu dijaga; untuk hantar kat orang 2 org agak mahal kosnya
*bulan ke tujuh- ada musibah yang menimpa menyebabkan kami 'patah kaki' hampir 2 bulan, tidak kemana2 ; hanya di rumah kecuali sekitar Manchester menggunakan bas awam
*'culture shock' - aku tidak dapat menerima kenyatan orang sekeliling sibuk mempedulikan saiz fizikal tubuh badan anak2 aku.......aku sedih sehingga sekarang..walaupun aku sudah memaafkan orang2 sekeliling itu namun kesedihan itu tak bisa dilenyapkan.....
*supervisor aku tidak ada pelajar phd lain selain dari aku...sebelum ini, dia hanya ada pelajar Mphil yang sudah bergelar Dr......tidak bermakna aku boleh berjumpa dengan beliau setiap minggu, perjumpaan hanya sebulan sekali dan kdg2 dua bulan sekali...dia juga sibuk sepertimana supervisor2 yang ada nama Prof di hadapan....
*tahap sensitif- makin berganda-ganda semenjak 'culture shock'.....
*rumah diancam tikus dan pelbagai hidupan yang tidak diundang- rasa tidak ada keserasian lagi pada rumah itu....
*Zimah mengalami alahan pada kepalanya tatkala musim panas menjelma,

Cabaran 2009
^Mizah dah ke sekolah sejak Sept 2008,maka Hanie bolehlah dihantar ke 'babysitter'...maka dapatlah ke sekolah setiap hari walaupun dalam tempoh yang amat terhad
^Perlu mampu menyesuaikan diri dengan suasana kekalutan setiap pagi menyiapkan anak2 ke sekolah dan aku serta suami
^Pindah rumah baru yang 1001% selesa daripada rumah lama- mood aku makin elok
^Hanie perlu dipantau sakitnya itu..yang aku telah ketahui sejak lahir lagi.

Cabaran 2010
*Aku keguguran
*Hingga kini masih tidak serik untuk mencuba(menambah le,bukan mencuba utk keguguran...nau'zubillah...biarlah org nak kata apa pun, aku ada justifikasinya yang tersendiri)
*Mizah perlu diperiksa matanya yang dikhuatiri didapati ada masalah.....
*Sentiasa ada perasaan takut...................... takut tak mampu membawa pulang apa yang dicitakan dan menamatkan perjalanan ini....
*Hanie masih perlu dipantau dari masa ke semasa; namun dia tetap cergas dan riang ria macam kanak2 lain dan sangat 'petah'......

Metafora Phd

Dulu,aku ibarat dalam terowong yang gelap gelita gelap..memang gelap yang sangat gelap...Aku meraba-raba dalam kegelapan...namun alhamdulillah ada beberapa insan yang sudi memimpinku jalan dalam kegelapan itu berbantukan 'lampu suluh'...

Kini, aku sudah nampak sedikit cahaya daripada dalam terowong yang gelap itu...Namun cahaya itu rupanya masih TERLALU JAUH TERSANGATLAH JAUH....... untuk tiba sekaligus besar harapan aku kiranya tatkala aku tiba pada cahaya tersebut,maka aku dapatlah keluar daripada terowong gelap itu...Ya,aku masih dalam terowong itu..walau sudah nampak cahaya nya....itulah metafora phd aku kini.....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tajuk Metafora ini tercetus daripada tajuk nasyid ini yang sangat puitis liriknya(nasyid tidak berkaitan dengan kehidupanku secara langsung...cuma suka melodi dan liriknya sahaja..dan boleh dibuat pedoman untuk kita semua....)- nak dengar boleh cari di sebelah...track no.26(4 dari belakang...)

Sekerat akar mampu kuhulur padamu
Di saat dikau terkapai dan kelemasan
Di arus hidup yang tinggal sejengkal cuma
Katamu kau tak bisa berenang ke sana

Engkaulah teman tanpa sangsi dan curiga
Setelah aku mendengar lirih ratapmu
Harumnya sekuntum melati di embunan pagi
Sewaktu kita melewati sebidang tanah perkebunan
Persahabatan

Tersasar aku di dalam mentafsir
Aksara jujur dan ketelusan yang terpamer di wajahmu
Terlalu naif untuk ku fahami
Metafora puisi dusta dan personafikasi

Sukarnya untuk aku membuktikan
Kebenaran yang berpihak padaku
Kerna peluang langsung tiada padaku
Sedarlah aku erti senyuman
Ada dendam yang tidak pernah padam
Pada lirik matamu ada pedang tajam yang merejam
Ohh….

Terima kasih atas pengalaman itu
Mengajak aku kembali mengenal diri
Terpaksa lagi menyusuri jalan-jalan sepi
Masih bisakah kutemui sekuntum melati mewangi yang tidak berduri

29th meeting... yesterday....

Yesterday, I met my sv last time before my 'exam' next week. She gave some tips and check in details for my abstract, chapter 1 and chapter 8, but she still concern on my writing level espcially my english languange.Yes, I have to admit about that,even I have checked my report few times and proof-read,but the technical erros still exist here and there..Hopefully the examiners will forgive me on that reason. The most worry part is my model also have some changes after I look back in details yesterday.erm......today and tomorrow have to work extra for ensure my preparation is adequate. She said on that day, she will not say anythings as equal in next stage exam soon-viva...sounds very horrible.Hopefully I can manage to prepare any possibilities and all the justifications what I've been done in my report on that day.


Wallahualam.......
