Ada seorang pemuda yang lama belajar di luar negeri kembali ke tanahair dengan angkuh dan sombong. Di dalam benak kepalanya telah lama tersimpan 3 pertanyaan yang dianggapnya tiada siapa yang boleh menjawab.

Satu hari beliau bertemu seorang imam tua di kampungnya. Pemuda: Pak imam apakah boleh menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan saya?

Pak Imam: Saya hamba Allah dan dengan izin-Nya saya akan menjawab pertanyaan kamu!

Pemuda: Pak Imam yakin? Profesor dan banyak orang pintar yang saya tanya tidak mampu menjawab pertanyaan saya.

Pak Imam: Saya akan mencuba sejauh kemampuan saya, insya’Allah.

As this post is up here, the inter-semester vacation for IIUM between Sem 2 2009/2010 and sem 3 2009/2010 is at the beginning. I had my own plan to use all the coming 14-days during the vacation. All i want to do is to start my dream to be a great insurance agent in MCIS Zurich. I need to concentrate to have a good start in a new business planning, in order to make me success in this new career. I've interested in this field since 19 years old, but only this time I've decided to truly be serious and gain benefit from it.

As for me, planning for vacation need to be done with some of these checklists:
1) Beneficial for your personal life (ibadah, health, knowledge)
2) Beneficial for your family (time)
3) Beneficial for the Ummah (beneficial activity)
4) Beneficial for your future (planning and preparation for upcoming events)

Salam..it's been a while since the last time i wrote an entry for this blog..busy is not among the reason and i don't know why..in this year, some changes happened..

First, i resigned from working as an administrative staff at Student Development Division, IIUM..Second, i resigned from holding a position as a president in Community Service (CENSERVE Team) 2009/2010. Then, i was offered to work as a Quranic teacher at some houses in Setiawangsa. At this rate, my study is still on.

i've come to think that even you have a high ambition, but your body can't take it, it can't still be done..i've suffered severe headache since 17 which made me faint several times..it's not that i don't take any action on that, but the 'red tape effects' was severe too, from the district health center until the state hospital at negeri sembilan, all are the same.."you need to go here first (without checking the illness)"..lastly, i became one of the person who gave up to face the 'red tape' situation..

recently, i was sent to neurology department (after begging) to have at least a medical check up, then the result is i have a hypertension..even after the conversation with my head department (Medical Anthropologist), he detected the same..

therefore, i would like to advise to take of your health and also never do not become one of such Red Tape.

Red Tape

The collection or sequence of forms and procedures required to gain bureaucratic approval for something, especially when oppressively complex and time-consuming.
This expression alludes to the former British custom of tying up official documents with red ribbon. [Early 1800s]
Red tape generally includes the filling out of seemingly unnecessary paperwork, obtaining of unnecessary licenses, having multiple people or committees approve a decision and various low-level rules that make conducting one's affairs slower, more difficult, or both.

Hypertension

By Mayo Clinic staff:

High blood pressure (hypertension) is a risk factor for more than heart disease. Discover what complications high blood pressure can cause and how to control it.
High blood pressure can quietly damage your body for years before symptoms develop. Left uncontrolled, you may wind up with a disability, a poor quality of life or even a fatal heart attack. Fortunately, with treatment and lifestyle changes, you can control your high blood pressure to reduce your risk of life-threatening complications.
