No Regrets.. :)

Assalamualaikum and hye there!

I'm currently at home for a very short mid semester break which only lasts around 5 days.. While others may have been at home since last Saturday, I was just went back home yesterday and will be going back to Kuantan on this Saturday.. Huaaa.. Cptnye dah kena g blk.. X smpt nak main puas2 ngn those two adorable and naughty boys yg sampai Jumaat mlm nnti..

Why do I went back home late? xde maknenye aku nk blk lmbt klu xde sbb musabab yg sangatlah penting.. klu bley, ari jumaat tghari 2 trus aku naik bas balik umah.. but then, I have to sacrifice bcoz ari Isnin 2 ade visit to PUSPEN Gambang under drug abuse subject.. So, those yg x amik subjek ni bley la blk awal.. for those who didn't know (including me, at first.. :P), PUSPEN a.k.a pusat serenti menempatkan penagih dadah yg sdg menjalani pemulihan.. tmpt ni gak dikenali sbg CCRC (Cure and Care Rehab Centre) whereby penghuni2 dye dmasukkan ke cni atas perintah mahkamah lps kantoi kena tgkp ngn abg polis.. tp kat Gambang ni, penghuni dye terdiri drpd mereka2 yg x menjalankan jenayah berat (rekod bersih selain dadah)..

Alkisahnye, task kitorg kat cne is dgr taklimat dr pihak pengurusan and the most interesting part is, interview penghuni2 kat c2.. at first, cuak gak la sbb kitorg diberitahu kna interview 2 on the spot and 1 student will get to interview 2 person at once.. sesi interview aku ngn 2 penguni 2 sgt menginsafkan and I can see that they really have regretted their wrong doings and determined to turn over a new leaf once they are out of the rehab centre.. They shared their story to me from the moment how they started taking drug (both of them amik ddh sbb pengaruh kwn), how the drugs influence their life and family, how they suffer when they stopped taking the drug, how grateful they are bile msk PUSPEN and also their hope for the future.. I sincerely hope diorg akan kuat smgt bile dibebaskan nnti supaya xterpengaruh blk dgn anasir2 luar.. sbb anything dkt luar 2 bley trigger dyorg punye memory on the drug.. and hopefully they can be a good son, brother, husband and father to their family.. Same2 kite doakan..

So, even kitorg trpaksa blk lmbt semata2 utk pergi visit 2, pengorbanan 2 sgtlah berbaloi sbb this is the only visit yg betol2 membuka mata aku ttg realiti hidup kat luar cne dan memberi 1001 keinsafan dlm diri.. and one thing dyorg smpt pesan kat aku, "Jangan kite hina penagih dadah kat luar cne, kite xtau penderitaan dyorg dan mane tau, mende 2 pon bley jadi kat family kite satu hari nanti.." Nauzubillah.. And alang2 aku tgh ckp psl drg abuse ni, nak promo la kat junior2 (2 pon klu ade yg bace blog aku..), jgn takut amik subjek ni.. don't listen to those ridiculous excuse psl susah nk skor la, dr haniki strict lah.. what more important is the knowledge u've gained.. sgt best sbnrnye blajar drug abuse ni.. even klas 4 jam sehari pon xboring.. :)

Oh, and by the way, the weekend before the visit doesn't went by as the usual weekend where I juz sleep and watch movies, online etc.. Instead, we spent the weekend at Kemaman and it was such a memorable experience.. For this, let's just make the pictures tell u the story..

First stop, Kemaman mini zoo..

Upgrade Myself!

Alhamdulillah, last saturday I was given a chance to join "Upgrade Myself Seminar" yg disampaikan oleh psgn suami isteri, Amirul & Elina.. since seminar ni quite interesting n I've gained lots of new knowledge from there, aku nk share la ckit sebyk psl input dr seminar 2.. lgpon pasni kna wat report psl seminar ni nk kna submit kat mdm.. FYI, kitorg actually 'dipaksa' utk pergi seminar ni sbb alasannye nk memenuhkan hall.. nasibla ade mkn free, xrugi la pergi.. so, pagi2 2 dgn perasaan "Ah, malasnye nk g seminar ni.. mesti ckp psl mende same jek.. Mtk2 la cpt abis.. huhu.. " kami meredah hujan jln kaki ke bngunan admin 2.. Yela, standard r tyme weekend kan, nk bermalas2an ckit.. (Padahal everyday pon da bermalas2an.. :P)

"How I do anything is how I do everything"

smpi2 je utk registration, dpt sebijik fail yg cantek ni.. dlm hati aku, "no wonderla byr speaker ni mhl, fail dye ni jek pon dah mhl.." ok, bile da start 2, both of the speakers managed to catch my attention.. everyone pon mcm da bersemgt and participate dlm seminar 2.. meh nk share ckit ape yg kitorg blajar..

1. 6 JARS MONEY MANAGEMENT. ok, yg ni mmg 1st tyme aku tau.. basically, bile kite ade duit (xkisah la pocket money, gaji ke, scholar ke), u have to divide it into 6 parts:

FFA: financial freedom account (bukan free fatty acid ek, hehe..). equal to investment.. yg ni kna allocate 10%.

EDUC: education (10% - nk beli buku ke, fotostat notes etc)

LTSS: long term saving (10%).. SAVING yek!!

NEC: necessities (monthly expenditure- 50%).. ni utk makan minum, beli brg2 keperluan seharian..kirenye u can only spend this much amount, half of what u have!

PLAY!!: 10% je yek utk mende2 lagha: tgk movie, shopping etc..

GIVE: 10% of the money should be given to anyone (nak derma ke, nak bg present kat kwn ke.. as long as u don't take the money..)

insyaAllah dgn care ni, kite xkan cepat kehabisan duit in the middle/end of the sem.. n savings utk mase dpn pon akan bertambah..

2. 5 LOVE LANGUAGE. basically, there are 5 groups of people; quality time (yup, that's me!), words affirmation, physical touch, acts of service and receiving gifts.. ok, let's go one by one.. quality time type of people, they love when someone spends time with them.. they will feel loved and cared.. physical touch suke klu org hug/kiss/pat them/shake hands.. receiving gifts, as the name suggest, suke klu org bg hadiah n they'll appreciate the gifts forever.. word of affirmation kena puji, beri galakan and nasihat setiap mase.. act of service plak is the type yg a little 'bossy', they love when people do something for them e.g cook for them, iron clothes, buatkan assignment.. erk.. so, by knowing in which group your parents, siblings, couples and friends are, you can show them that u care bout them by doing what they love..

3. TIPS TO UPGRADE YOURSELF. dyorg ajar on cmne posture duduk yg btol and how to walk confidently.. n of course, appearance and attitude. they also shared a tips when going for interview, always have eye contact with the person interviewing, especially when u enter the room.. ni based on kak elin's father experience interviewing people for SPA, those yg do not have eye contact when they 1st enter the room are automatically diqualified.. scary, isn't it?

4. BELIEVE. everything u do, believe u can do it.. no matter what other people says, u just have to believe in yourself.

5. STAY POSITIVE. change the bad attitude and negative thoughts into something positive.. everytime u have a negative thoughts in ur mind, say "Thank You for Sharing!" and juz ignore them..

that's all I want to share.. x rugi la join program ni sbnrye.. klu kat luar, program ni sgtlah mahal.. kitorg kire beruntung sbb free of charge, OSC sponsor..

p/s: bile la JPA nk masuk.. makin lambat, makin tinggi angan2 nk beli brg mcm2.. eh, kna apply 6 jars dulu bile dpt duit nnti ni! hehe.. selamat mencuba!
