Life Unfortunately

Unfortunately, in life; the destination does not matter. In the end, thing that counts is the journey; after all, because life is all about the journey; from the start. 

It's about the path you have crossed, the puddle of water you have stepped on, the grass field you have rolled over, the barb that your hands and feet have been torn-ed in, the rain that you have drenched on, the stones that you have thrown and being thrown at, the stairs and floors that you have fallen over.
It's about the hills that you have climbed, the beaches and rivers and swamps that you have swum in, the trees that you have clung on, the clouds and skies that you have stared at, the stars you have gazed.

It's about the people you have met and the memories you have made with them, the cats and dogs you have been played with and chased by, the chipping of birds and cuckoo-ing of cock that have wake you up in the morning, the sound of crickets that filled your night, the honking that you've got in the traffic, the sound of fox that you do not know even until now.

It's about what has happened in your life, in you and what are bound to happen again. It's not about what should happened, because the-should-happened things are your option, and life is a journey created by the traveler; you.

The Kind of Life; You got One Life.

Hi,

"You have vast of chances ahead. Color up your life and do the out-of-ordinary because the ordinary is dull."

This is to all young people out there. Those who have pennies to be spent, time to be wasted, and loads of energy to be doing something great!

You guys are so lucky not to be bonded by any organizations upon graduation. Yet, free to choose where to go from there. Being paid an adequate amount of stipend by the unattached, strictly loose requirement to be maintained -organization. This is a chance, Opportunity. The kind of thing you don't get much in life. Me, I don't have this. But, it's not a bad thing, though. Albeit all the grades requirement and stuffs; I still get to do things I love even sometimes I don't think I get to do much of them.

But, you people are having this thing, the kind of thing most of fellas out there could only dream, or wish for. And it is such a waste if all you do with that perks were, spending them on items that could not be a memory; or a story to be told. 

Use that stipend, not wisely but use to the fullest; not on materials that can not be turn into a story, but on a journey or something that can be written into a novel, after all experiences are the best teacher. 

Stop being typical. Do what you think matter and counts. Go to the raid, go to concert and party. Go to the beaches and hike in forests. Travel alone in a totally anonymous place. Get acquainted to as many people possible. Go online and look for fellow traveler.

If you are not into travelling outside, go online and look for sites that offer volunteering and go fucking volunteer. Help the people. Meet the less fortunate. Go to conferences that discusses the society. Go to a book store and grab pieces that gives you something to think.

It's amazing we are in Engineering School, or Medical School or something and all we know (not well known-of though) is the topics related to our major. Grab some coffee and tea and call someone (or chat online) and set a coffee talk in Starbucks and discuss about different topics that matters to the world. Stop spending your time remembering Engineering stuffs, talk to some one in Economics, talk to someone in Law or Arts. Get some fucking knowledge from them.

Go out to the other faculty and take a minor in Macro Economics, Philosophy or Writings. Make your youth days count. Go out with friends on a sushi date and movies. Put the books aside, sometime, because you are going to need time off, once in a while.

Most importantly, make your University life a memorable one. It's kinda hard for some one like me to do so; with the bonding and stuffs, requirement I need to fulfill (because I'm academically retarded), but you have the chances and if you waste it now, you are going to waste it forever.

It's not about the physical possession you might enjoy or any official accreditation you might get. Its about doing things that you, yourself could be proud of, even though no one will.

Finally, just go out there and throw all the money and time and energy you for something that matter most, not for anyone, but for you; so if fate says you are going to be a writer, you have something to write about. If says, you are going to be a grand parent, you have a story to tell your grand kids. Some people need to be reminded of appreciating all the finer (might be smallest) things in life.

Till then,

Someone who care.

"You can be of the high power. But you can't be divine; after all, you are merely a human, just like me. And I, we; human make mistakes."

TFTN Education Congress at TM Convention Centre

HI,

Just to share of the quotes I get from the speakers during the Congress.

It has been fun in the Congress, meeting with fellow change-makers, make new friends (even got a ride back to KL Sentral; thanks man!), and most importantly eyes-to-eyes with someone I look-up to; Mr Anas Alam Faizli, not to mention Nurul Izzah (she left earlier), and that funny lad, Mr Matluthfi (this guy is funny in-and-out), and if you love reading articles; you'l be excited about Mr Fathi Aris.

"Education approach through LOVE" -Anas ALam Faizli-

"We are more testing than educating" -Dato' Dr Siddiq Fadzil-

"Kenapa sekolah tidak menyenangkan? - kerana sekolah gagal memberi kasih sayang" -Dato' Dr Siddiq Fadzil-

"Orang miskin tidak bodoh, mereka miskin kerana dimiskinkan dan bodoh kerana dibodohkan oleh sistem" -Dato' Dr Siddiq Fadzil-

"Men are born ignorance-not stupid, they are made stupid by education" -Dato' Dr Siddiq Fadzil-

"Young man, be brave to ventures; ....those succeeding guys they aren't loyal to anyone but performance" -Dr Ghauth Jasmon-

"Being futuristic without the sounds of knowledge is akin of building a sand hole- sadly, you are the generation that is sinking in that hole" -Nurul Izzah-

"Purpose of education; afterall, is to engage with humane's maximum potential" -Nurul Izzah-

"Harapan saya; supaya mahasiswa tidak terikat oleh HEP dan bebas untuk bergerak" -Nurul Izzah-

Thought 3

I used to dwell in a corner thinking that grades I acquire in exams matter most in life.
It's pretty much defines who I am, where I'll work, pay I'll get.
Well, 6 years has gone, I learned something that everyone should; I learned that life is bigger than that.

All these while, I have been thinking about how many A's I'm getting at the end of the term, it kills
part of me inside.
Well, after all; when I started doing things I like; going places, hikes,entering stupid competition to win free stuffs, I feel like I'm living again.

I guess, grades do not actually defines me (by any means but my memorizing and manipulating abilities),
however, doing things that makes me feels me; does.
I mean, these are all subjective matter.

Some of us might find getting bundles of A's favorable that it makes our life a better life-to-live; the question is, does all those things are the kind of memories we would like to keep forever?
If they aren't, then we got to find something that will.

Anyway, YOLO right?

"If love is setting a place at the table for someone who never coming home; I think I'll pass"

Thought 1

"I'm vulnerable."

"Awww, people are fragile. I mean, God purposely made us that way.
To be mad, be sad, be happy, have feelings and live with it."

"Hurmmmm..."

"Yeah, or life would be dull."
