i'm going to muktamar in a few hours
hopefully we'll have a safe journey
this is my first muktamar in the states
i don't know the situation yet
if it can be as grand as muktamar in malaysia
then it will be really great

sadly, there are less people attending this year muktamar
maybe due to other plan or insufficient fund
or who knows..

i'm really hoping that there will be more people next year
especially from penn state, michigan,
minnessota, purdue, arizona, osu, uiuc
and especially from our own Case..

I only scored 102 in both 2 games I played bowling today
it was one of the lowest score i had
but i guess it's okay since i have never bowl
for a very long time already
the last time i bowled was APril i think
and I had 117 that time
far away from my record 176 in Alam Central

I still think I can do better
provided that I have the right ball to bowl
since some of the ball are whether too heavy
or too light.. which I do not have good control
I like 10 lb ball the best

talking about bowling,
i read an article about bowling history
which tells:

[i]"In the 3rd century AD, every German peasant carried a Kegel, a club similar to the Irish shillelagh, for protection. It became a customary test of faith in many churches for the parishioner to set up his Kegel as a target, representing the heathen, and then roll a stone in an attempt to knock it down. If he succeeded, he was considered free of sin.

Bowling eventually moved out of the church and became a popular secular sport, with a wooden ball replacing the stone and multiple pins (from as few as three to as many as seventeen) replacing the single Kegel.

There are several references to bowling in Germany during the Middle Ages. Berlin and Cologne in 1325 set a limit on the amount that could be bet on a bowling match. A 1463 feast in Frankfurt featured bowling, along with a venison dinner. And the winner of a 1518 competition in Breslau was awarded an ox.

From Germany, the sport spread into Austria, Spain, Switzerland, and the Low Countries. Bowling also moved indoors, into covered sheds with lanes made of wood or sun-baked clay. These Kegelbahns, as they were called in Germany, were often associated with inns or taverns."[/i]

it has started by some religious people
but it is not a religious game
it is still a sport that require our skills,
our concentration, imagination and creativeness
thus I consider bowling as a good sport to learn
and to play regularly
as to teach us to control our concerntration
which I think, bowling will help a lot
 
3 days already!!
12.19.03 (7:23 am)   [edit]
huh.. it has been 3 days
since i last went to work..
what a wasteful days..
i assume, i'm giving myself some break here
inshaallah starting next week i'll be working again

thinking about those 3 days i wasn't at work
i was busy helping some friends moving
from residential house to Malay's houses off-campus
i am currently staying in syed, nash and azzam's house
doing some computer stuff
reading books (what else!)
watching tv and soon working

i'll be in atlanta inshaallah Dec 24th

hope to see more familiar faces there soon..

 
Final is over
12.17.03 (5:50 pm)   [edit]
Alhamdulillah my final examination is over
so i'll be free to sit down and enjoy the day
i'm planning to read as much book as i can
throughout the holiday.
Hopefully this will be a worth it holiday

 
Welcome Back Scholes!!
12.13.03 (9:26 pm)   [edit]
[image]txh62_1140329946.jpg[/image]

One and a half hour of rest from studying Engr 210
brought me to Syed's house to watch an interesting
Derby match between Manchester United and Manchester City

'twas great to see how Paul Scholes made a come back
after a long injury rest
He played like he was fit all the time (sounds like Gary)
I enjoyed the game so much
more players are regaining their confident back

Scholes(8 ) : 2 goals and 1 on-the-line save, say it all
Tim Howard(8 ) : 5 magnificent saves
Ruud(8 ): prolific striker
Giggsy(8 ) : sooo fast and furios
Silvestre(8 ) : calm and possessive
O'Shea(7) : securing his place
Keane(7) : gonna miss him a lot
Neville bro's (6,6): amazing
Kleberson(6) : he's showing more
Ronaldo(6) : wonder how he did those tricks!
Ferdinand(5) : Looks not fit, but still useful

praise should be given to young star Wright-Phillips
for the hard work and clever angle-goal
and Seaman with 4 saves that should have given Man U
a comfort lead, stops Scholes and Ruud's hat-trick search

Hope they can maintain playing beautiful games
make watching soccer match more alluring

enough of the subject
i got to be serious
and i hope i can start sooner
or else the way will be gloomy

i had a day to prepare
but i didn't do much
even after we were given the chance
to bring a sheet of paper into the examination room
i didn't use the chance quite fairly
i used only one page to write the fomulas

and the result..
i can answer 6 out of the total 10 questions given
somehow i feel bad about myself being so lazy
but at least i did some thinking throughout the exam
rather than just copying what i wrote on the paper

i think next time,
i'll just use the chance if given..
wrote on both sides of the paper
put everything on it
then i'll do the thinking later

huhu
hopefully this time i'll learn
 
Final Exam?
12.09.03 (7:22 pm)   [edit]
Final?
Tomorrow?
Oh man.. have i prepared?

Sometimes i think about early preparation
and last minute preparation
what are differences between them?

When people see us studying throughout the night
struggling for the examination,
they precept that we are having a last minute preparation - and they will say, "oh it's bad"

What I think is, last minute study is a MUST
everyone who have examination, should make last minute prepartion
same thing as when we are preparing for a debate
or preparing for a soccer match
we always have last minute prepartion

So the only thing matter is
did we review over what we learn in class every day?
because that is the most important factor
contributing towards understanding basic information
of what we learn in class

after class, we will remember 70% of what we learned.
the night after class, 50% will still be there.
after a day, 20% remain if we didn't have any review of the materials.
and after that, everything might have gone into thin air

So what I think is basically
we have to learn new thing everyday
until the end of the day
until the examination day

The difference between people who studied earlier
and people who didn't study until last minute,
is people who studied earlier will take less time to cover all the topics for the examination
still, both categories will have to learn
and make last minute preparation

why?
because that's what our mind will ask us to do

well.. this might cover 80% of human population
i know there must be some others who think
that this thing didn't apply to them
 
Raya Again
12.06.03 (10:46 pm)   [edit]
There was a Raya Celebration
by the CaMaR members this afternoon
the event has started at 230
after a long preparation throughout the night
by all camarian
it's nice to see people work together as a team
spent all night to serve for other people

I wonder sometime,
do I have the will to do the same
but to serve people
but to serve my Creator
I guess that's a hope every people might have in mind
but sometimes we are not strong enough
to fight our nafs

Talking about an-nafs,
it's a good thing if we use it in the right way
nafs is also created by Allah
so there must be some way we can use it
to get rewards from Allah ta'ala

It's only that most of the time,
we didn't use it the right way
esp in the land far away from our family
we tend to forget that we have certain responsibility
to ourselves, to our family, to our religion
and most of all to out Creator
we should show good example to others
and restrain ourselves from obeying the nafs
by doing things that Allah ta'ala forbid us

Ya Allah,
please guide us..
ameen

scary movie
12.01.03 (4:00 pm)   [edit]
You know what's the scarriest thing to do nowadays?
to read news about accidents in Malaysia,
and go through the victims name
one by one..
hoping that none of them is my family or friends..

to everyone who drive in Malaysia
or anywhere..
please be careful..
remember your love one!
and most important (which we always forget)
remember to recite du'a before starting your journey

Ya Allah, please give us a safe journey...
