Review: Teater Imam Al-Bukhari

Pertama kali saya menonton teater di bumi Johor ini. For quite a long time, I haven’t watch any theater. Alhamdulillah, saya berasa gembira dapat turut sama menyaksikan teater anjuran Waqaf An-Nur (JCorp). Saya kira teater Waqaf An-Nur mendapat sambutan yang sangat menggalakkan kerana kehadiran telah mencapai angka 3 ribu. Harus saya ucapkan tahniah kerana berjaya menganjurkan teater ini. Ramai yang dahagakan teater islami sebegini. Kita sudah muak dengan hiburan dan suapan hedonisme. Continue reading

Do you have these symptoms?

  • chesty cough
  • chest pain
  • intolerance to cold weather
  • phlegm with varieties of colours
  • sore throat
  • sometimes husky voice, sometimes tiny-helium voice
  • one month long symptoms

I have all these and my husband asked me to do self-healing. But it’s already a month and it is kind of irritating as I’m a teacher. My voice is my asset. I use my voice to do classroom control. I use my voice to deliver knowledge. I don’t know la whether it’s my eating habit, I yell too much or the weather. Dah la I don’t have umbrella in my car. Gosh. Is it just me?

Salah itulah guruku

Annas.

Pelupa, tergesa-gesa.

Kadangkala pemarah, bergaduh sesama saudara.

Annas.

Siapa muallimnya?

Para nabi dan kitab-kitab mereka.

Kenapa kita diberi al-kitab?

Kerana kita semua buat silap.

Kita belajar dari kesalahan.

Kita bangkit dari kekalahan.

Kita yang sering melakukan kesilapan.

Review: Robin Hood

Between Iron Man 2 and Robin Hood, I choose Robin Hood because it is historical (some say it’s mythical) but I believe it is partly true because Robin had lived in disguise.Robin Hood provokes issues and some thinking.

During my childhood, I watched Robin Hood and his merry men on TV. The story of a witty bandit robbing the rich to give the poor is heroic. This time around Ridley Scott brings a different version of Robin Hood. I thank Ridley Scott for making my grey matter gets going as I watch his movie.

Aku belajar untuk mengajar

Seorang anak murid mengomel dengan marah apabila rakannya memijak kasutnya. Lalu kudatang dekat dan berkata padanya:

Mus, kenapa marah-marah?

Dia pijak kasut saya cikgu.

Kalau ye pun jangan la mencarut. Tak baik.

Takde lah dia pijak kasut saya habis kotor.

Iye. Cikgu faham. Dia tak sengaja. Cuba awak bayangkan, nabi Muhammad tu dibaling taik, dilempar batu. Tapi dia tak marah pun. Sampai malaikat Jibril kata “Ya rasulullah, bolehkah aku terbalikkan bumi Thoif ini?” tapi rasulullah kata “Jangan, takpe”. Awak ni baru sikit kena dah marah-marah. Cuba sabar sikit.

Alhamdulillah lepas aku sound, dia cool down. Rajin pula buat kerja aku lepas tu. Mudah-mudahan ada orang ingatkan aku dengan kesabaran rasulullah apabila aku marah. Dan sesiapa yang pernah marah aku, aku tak pernah ambil hati. Aku maafkan kerana aku juga ada buat silap. Kalau aku mahu belajar untuk mengajar, aku kena tahan sabar bila orang marah aku kerana dia buat begitu untuk mendidik aku supaya menjadi lebih cemerlang. Hello, Rasulullah is the greatest example and he’s the greatest teacher. Because of him, his patience delivering Islam, people strive to be excellent to fulfill task as a khalifah in this world and thereafter. May Allah give me the strength.

Rumpai laut @ seaweed

The seaweed was dried. You have to soak it until it will become semi transparent and crunchy. It will take some time to get the best result. Sometimes, some things are worth waiting for 😉

  1. Pound together onions, chilli padi/ thai pepper, a bit of salt.
  2. Slice thinly the red onion.
  3. Put in the pounded ingredient into a bowl of seaweed, and followed by the onion (you can also put thin slices of mangoes)
  4. Give a good squeeze of a kaffir lime.
  5. Mix it well.
  6. A bit of fish sauce.
  7. Voilà!

PS: For kerabu effect, you can also put in a pinch of roasted peanuts.

I learned how to make this from a seller at Tamu in Sabah. According to my brother, seaweed is popularized by Philippine’s immigrants.

dinner at senibong

Senibong is a crowded place at night. though it’s a bit far fromJB, but the journey was worth it. even the Singaporeans are willing to travel to this place for the sake of its food. enough said. it’s better to ignite your taste bud with these pictures.

Hiatus blogging

Ok I swear that I’ve been busy lately and I have abandoned my blog. So here’s what happened.
