Wall Climbing XTVT

Wall climbing???

Hmm...i've never expecetd that one day i'll involve in this kind of xtvt. Looks like nothing, just simply hang to the wall?? Wrong! Absolutely wrong! You must try on it, then u'll know!


Last Saturday, my hubby invited me to go with him to Mad Monkeys Climbing Gym. At first thought just to follow, but then...hmmm..he registered me too ;) Thanks Sayang!

At first i tried, wow! Its me feels like to try more and more...because there're many 'stones' stick to the wall & I still not touch it accordingly! Must come and come when we have any free time - weekend perhaps!




 


I f you wanna have a try, lets go for it! Details : http://www.madmonkeyzclimbing.com/madmonkeyz/index.html

At MadMonkeyz, climbing should be safe, convenient, affordable and most importantly, fun!

Reminder..reminder..reminder

Hmm...reminder..reminder..reminder

If you're a software that help to remind people for good, i guess absolutely Great! But when you're the reminder, have to write and send reminder to others, it such a eerrr...most people will hate you and can let people fight each other too!

Such a night mare when there's a case, a lady have to be a reminder to somebody which is actually was part of the 'big committee'. Same things has been reminded, but again and again she has to remind him. At last the 'bomb' exploded! Hmm...i can't say much, coz both related to your dignity as a Manager.

Anyway, in working environment, we MUST be professional. Know how to differentiate between friends & colleagues. Some people they don't understand that and always have negative perspective - Lyer! Good Actor! Anyhow, its subject to you guys - an adult should know which is good or bad!

A Visit to Jelita Ostrich Farm

Jelita Ostrich Farm
Last Sunday we went back to Seremban - my hubby hometown actually ;)

On da way back we decided to have a visit at Jelita Ostrich Farm. Simply depends on luck - open or not, we just go. So happy its opened! So we had our journey there.




Location
The 4.2-hectare Jelita Ostrich Farm, located on a 75-hectare site, has been certified by the Malaysian Book of Records as the first ostrich farm in Malaysia.

Our Trip Experiences
Here, visitors are briefed on the ostrich industry by an experienced multilingual guide who will take visitors through the farm. Visitors are then taken to a breeding pen where a demonstration on the right way to pick up eggs will be shown.

Visitors are allowed to ride ostriches and those who do so are given certificate qualifying them as ostrich jockeys. A visit to the farm is now not complete without the race and the chariot ride. -->but as for us, we just watched it :p

Actually about four to five birds would take part in a race and the interesting feature of an ostrich race is the way the birds manoeuvre at bends , but during our visit only two took part.

There are no rules in an ostrich race and the first bird that turns back and heads for the starting point is the winner. They can just run a few metres and head back to the starting point. An ostrich can achieve a speed of up to 70kph. Very fast wow!

The other attractions at the farm include ostrich rides where visitors are also given certificates - i got during my last visit year 2002 if not mistaken, and the “man against egg’’ challenge where one stands on an ostrich egg in an attempt to break it. But, serious very hard shell!

Apart from the farm activities, there is a souvenir store, a stall serving ostrich satay as well as ostrich essence with ginseng are available. The satay is very good due containing very high protein. Suits for those on diet ;)

Day Trip to Bukit Tinggi, Pahang

Last Saturday was a great start of our weekend. Actually it was a last minute plan. Planned to wake up in the early morning, but as usually - after Subuh before Zuhor we did! hahaha

Once everything ready, we went to Bravo Restaurant and had our lunch together - at 11.20 am hehehe

Then my lovely hubby drove al the way to Bukit Tinggi. Quite shocked for me as first timer been here. Its really far up of the hills and on da way up is just a forest! Nothing u can see. Lucky my hubby drove via Ampang Look up Point..so atleast got view of KL before we entered the hills heading to Bukit Tinggi.

Bukit Tinggi is a small town in the Bentong district of Pahang, Malaysia. This small town is located along Karak Expressway.

Once we reached Bukit Tinggi, we have to pay RM10 for the entrances of:

Antara Garisan


Antara Garisan - Between a Line


It was a really great tele-film! I just watched it yesterday night - Astro Ria 10.00 pm - 12.00 pm together with my daughter - Saffiya. really impress with the story. This tele-film actually has been shown on 5 Sep 2009, last year - I MISSED It!

This telefilm powerful hold on the theme of sin and the reward is only separated by a line which is fine enough  starring by Noorkhiriah, Sharifah Amani and newcomers Ismail Abd Aziz as the main actor. This telefilm becomes more robust when assisted by Isma Yusoof, Zaibo and new immigrants as Zaibo, Nadia Aqilah Bajuri, Faizul Hashim, Farhan Daing, Yaya Nadzri and more.

Between the Line begins with the story of a Uztaz named Arman (acting by Ismail Abd Aziz) that appears in a village at dawn day. He has met with a woman named Ayu GRO (Noorkhiriah) being drunk in front of the mosque. Ustaz Arman who was then standing at the foot of the stairs mosque with a view that women look disgusting and Ayu also looked ustaz with shyness.

After the incident, they will not meet again until a day and at the same time, Ayu was standing at the foot of stairs mosque in the same place he encounters with Arman Uztaz the first time. But this time, Arman Uztaz found in a quite shameful.
At that time, then they remembered that they had in different places and realized that they have changed their position because they realize what distinguishes only just by a fine line.

The song also very nice ...




Morale of the Story
1. Islam is Not Hard to Follow
2. Muslim is Not A Terrorist, Islam Love Peace!"Jihad" should be done in a correct manner & peace
3. Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover

Now days it is not easy being a Muslim. It means that one must know their religion which is not only knowing who Allah is but also knowing how to live Islam everyday. Allah has not only left us with the holy Quran but also the example of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He (Allah) says in the Holy Quran: "It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed into a plain error." (Surah Al-Ahzab: 36)

This directive has been given to the Muslim in order to make Islam easy to follow. Allah tells us that our religion is not hard and the Prophet (peace be upon him) himself said that when there are two or more options to follow, that as long as the ways are halal (allowed) we should always take the easiest way. Our religion is not one of asceticism, Islam is not a religion of "do's and don'ts" but one that presents perimeters and guide lines for living.

May Allah help and bless us in this life and the hereafter and may we have an obedient spirit as we grow in this Muslim life!

Blog - English or Malay

Yeay...

Blog which one is better? In English or Malay??

Here my opinion....

Deep in my heart...my fren idea is GREAT - Blog should be write in English! Why??

1. I've many friends come from vary races :)
1Malaysia - We live happily in Malaysia even we have Malay, Chinese, Indian, Caucasian, and so many la...

2. Google Adsense
I think English is more popular compared Malay language. In case i want to do some business here, the target can be "Worldwide" ;) Coz the language is not the barrier ;)

3. English Writing - Shorter than Malay Writing
So, i shall control my emotion when writing anything specially something from deep of my heart ...hehehe


OK, as for me, really agreed to have blog in English =) For others, up to you, this is just my opinion.

Plus in a way, can improve my English writing too :) But...hehehe as this is my personal blog, i might type it in a very simple sentences. So, i hope u all can understand :)

Thus,
I'll start writing my blog in English today :) Thanks Sudha for the suggestion :)

Kerja Part Time

Dalam mengharukan kehidupan yang semakin mencabar dan kos sara hidup yang semakin tinggi, saya terpikir jugak kalau nak buat kerja Part Time. Tapi...ni antara perkara-perkara yang bersarang di kepala saya:

1. Kurang Masa dengan Keluarga
Mungkin masa saya dengan keluarga bakal berkurangan atas faktor letih @ buat kerja yang part time tu.

2. Lari "Family Planning"
Mungkin jugak, sebab biler ade kerja baru, bermaksud ade extra responsibilities...Hmm...takkan baru nak tunjuk prestasi yang baik, tetiba mengndung pulak. Pepaham je la..mengandung ni memang tak leh duga camne nanti. Emosi sensitif, badan cepat letih, satu lagi..mungkin kaki kejang la (as my 1st pregnancy dulu2...mana tahu)

3. No Chances Layan Movies Best
Ni yang tak best. Macam now, saya sangat suka tengok The Biggest Loser Asia, tak missed lagi. Plus, layan Discovery Channel malam-malam sambil berehat. Errr..will miss this part kalau buat part time malam - no more TV!

4. Tak Cukup Rehat!
This is the most important part i think, Health is Wealth!

Tapi...

Kerja Part Time boleh membantu saya:

1. Gain Extra Money
Biler ade extra money, maknanya saya boleh...

2. Shopping Dengan Gembiranya
Biler boleh shopping dengan gembira, maksudnya saya jugak mampu

3. Bayar Lebih Pada Hutang
Specially PTPTN....arrrghh..sungguh menghantui diriku bab ni!

4. Boleh Travel!
Ni paling best...biler travel, tambah pengalaman di tempat orang & mungkin leh merasa main salji!

5. Bagi Extra Money to My Mum!
This is the utmost part that i really want to do it. But for time being can't give so much. Sekadar mamapu jika ade lebih RM bulanan.. :s

6. Boleh Tolong Orang Susah
Bab ni adalah peringkat tertinggi yang mungkin saya boleh capai, kalau dah jadi kaya. Saya tak mahu jadi orang yag lupa diri. Saya mahu dengan gembiranya, saya membantu mereka yang memerlukan tanpa sebarang was-was (tanpa ade sekelumit pikiran - cukup ke duit belanja aku bulan ni? )

Apa-pun, bersusah-susah dulu, bersenang-senang kemudian :)

Sepantas Waktu

Pantas sungguh masa berlalu, arini dah masuk Mar 2010.

Semoga bulan ini menjadi permulaan yang baik untuk bulan-bulan mendatang. Ku berdoa agar setiap usahaku lebih dihargai, dihormati & diberkati. Semoga kekawan saya jugak di golongkan bersama :) Aku gembira dengan kehidupan sekarang, syukur Alhamdulillah.

Dalam bulan Mar ni aku bakal melangkah ke usia 28 tahun. Hmm...pantas, memang pantas masa berlalu. Sekejap jek rasa nya dh hampir 28 tahun, dh ada seorang anak berusia 2 tahun 9 bulan. Masa ni Saffiya sangat aktif bercakap, mengulangi setiap apa yang dipelajari.

Nak di kongsi bersama, setiap malam sebelum tidur dia pasti akan bertanya, menyanyi dan berdoa - semuanya ulangan harian :p Kalau terlalu penat pun, layan jek...kalau terlelap saya, lelap la dia :)

Keaktifannya memang sukar dihuraikan, kalau duk serumah baru tahu camner - mencabar kesabaran & kepenatan TAPI dia jugak PENGHIBUR TERBAIK kami :)

Love U Saffiya, Ibu & Ayah sentiasa sayang Saffiya. Sayang Semua!

Kisah Syafia yg Mengharukan

Buletin Utama semalam amat menggemparkan kita semua dengan kisah Syafia. Seorang budak berusia 3 tahun, seusia dgn anakku. Dah la namanya pun didengar hampir serupa - Saffiya - Syafia. Sedih, pilu, sakit hati pun ada...hina sungguh manusia bernama 'Abang Mat' tu. Tak sangka sanggup dia dera budak sekecil itu yg baru jek nak tahu ..itu ape? mama...nenek ...atuk..sekadar panggilan...xreti apa pun!

Ya Allah,
Aku mohon, jauhkan perkara sebegini berulang lagi!

Seksa aku dengarnya dlm berita...ikut hati, nak jek aku belasah mamat tu. Tp takpe, kita ade sistem perundangan yg adil, biar pihak berkuasa tentukan.

Tak cukup dengan kesedihan yg dilanda ibunya, ade pulak pihak mengata dia sedang hamil akan anak 'Abang Mat'. Masya Allh, sabar ye Hanim (Nurhanim Aziz - ibu mangsa). Allah itu Maha Adil! Doakan biar 'Abang Mat' dapat balasan setimpalnya.

How to Be a Good Leader

How to Be a Good Leader

Hmm..great source...i found this and wanna share with all...

Remember: leadership skills and techniques can be learned. You don't have to be a natural leader. Very few people are.

Know your team. At some point, every day, walk around the office and say "Hi" to everyone who works for you. If you're not in the office that day, call and see how people are.

Meet your team.Regularly - daily, weekly or monthly, depending on your place and type of work - have meetings of all the members of the team. Keep these meetings short, focused and action-orientated.

Train your team. Every team member should have at least two days training a year. Newer and more senior colleagues should have more. If they don't ask to go on training sessions, suggest some suitable courses.

Grow your team. Through varied experience and regular training, you should be developing each team member to be more and more confident and more skilled.

Set objectives for each team member. As far as possible, these objective such be SMART - Specific Measurable Achievable Resourced Timed.

Review the performance of each team member. At least once a year - at least quarterly for the first year of a new team member - have a review session where you assess performance, give feed-back and agree future objectives and training.

Inspire your team. Consider making available a motivational quote or story every week or month.

Socialise with your team. Have lunch or an after-work drink with them, especially when a staff member has a birthday or there's another reason to celebrate.

Thank constantly. The words "Thank you" take seconds to say, but mean so much.

Praise constantly. The words "Well done" take seconds to say, but will be long remembered and appreciated.

Communicate constantly. Don't assume that people know what you're doing, still less what you are planning or thinking. Tell them, using all the communication tools to hand: team briefings, electronic newsletters, organizational newspapers.

Eliminate. Too often we do things because they've always been done. Life changes. Consider whether you could stop doing certain things altogether.

Delegate. You don't have to do everything. Develop your team members by training them to do more and trusting them to take over some of the things you've been doing.

Empower. A really effective leader sets clear objectives for his team members, but leaves detailed implementation of these objectives to the discretion and judgement of individual members of the team. As Second World War U.S. General George S. Patton put it: "Don't tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results”.

Facilitate. A confident leader does not try to micro-manage his team, but makes it clear that, if team members need advice or assistance, he is always there to facilitate and support.

Be on time. Always start meetings on time and finish them on time. Natural breaks keep people fresh. Short meetings concentrate the mind.

Be seen. Don't just talk the talk, but walk the walk. So visit each unit or department for which you are responsible on a regular basis. Don't do this unannounced - you are not out to undermine other leaders or catch out staff. So arrange with the unit leader or departmental head when you'll visit and ask him or her to walk round with you.

Make time. Managers are often very busy and this can deter people from approaching you, so make time for people and be approachable. People will appreciate you taking five minutes out of your busy schedule, especially if you act on/listen to what they say.

Really listen. Many of us - especially those who think they are important - don't really listen, but instead think about what they're going to say next. Give the person speaking to you your full attention and really take on board what they are saying.

Accept honest criticism. Criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance or a stranger - but it's a powerful tool of learning. Above all, assess criticism on merit, without regard to its originator.

Think strategically. The doers cut a path through the jungle; the managers are behind them sharpening the machetes; the leaders find time to think, climb the nearest tree, and shout "Wrong jungle!" Find time to climb the trees.

Have a mentor or buddy, someone doing similar work in the same or a similar organisation with whom you can regularly and frankly discuss your progress and your problems as a leader.

Have a role model, someone who can inspire you to be a truly great leader. If you can't find one, study Jed Bartlet as the American President in any episode of the television series "The West Wing".

Plan your succession. You won't be there forever and you may not be in control of the timing and circumstances of your departure. So start now to mentor and train at least one colleague who could take over from you.
