Sama tak serupa

Again, I’m blogging about sooo last week’s events. Hehe. Tight schedule (tight la sgt). Ramadhan’s here. Alhamdulillah, Brissy may not have a bazaar Ramadhan with ayam percik, nasi tomato, and air kelapa, but it surely teaches me waay beyond what Ramadhan in Malaysia has to offer. Don’t get me wrong, not to say saye dah jd mat saleh n forgot my roots, no darlings. Juz dat when u’re in a place where Ramadhan seems juz like another typical month in the year, u’ll try harder to make the best out of Ramadhan so that it is NOT juz another set of 30 days, it IS Ramadhan, THE Ramadhan. In Malaysia u have everything ready rite in front of ur face, but here u've got to work for it. So u’ll be more likely to appreciate everything here.. Hmm… Hope it’s not too late to wish everybody happy fasting :) and to all of you bloghoppers as well. Hehe…

And of coz, happy belated birthday to my sayang… I love u and miss u soooo mucho2… Wish I could be with you… MALAYSIA…..

Last Monday was my last day at East Brisbane State School for a school observation. We went there every other Monday morning, for 3 times. Well, from my experience there I can easily conclude that I’m MATHEMATICALLY CHALLENGED!! Huhuhu… I was assigned to a Year 7 class, and juz my luck, every Monday morning they have math..
Don’t blame me I’m not naturally bright in math, I have excuses for my “slowness”. These may sound lame, but hey, I’m only human ;p (there, ding dong, one excuse). Ok, I don’t know all the numerical terms in English, I was raised as a melayu sejati, I learnt ABC and 123 with my mother tongue ;p ngehehe.. I’m doing language, tesol, so I’m on Muqaffa’s track, rather than Khawarizmi’s. And, it’s been 4 years since I last did complex math, so it’s been a while my left brain’s in the comfort zone. Now I have to use the calculator even for a simple calculation! And one last excuse, the jalan kerja here is a bit different from what my brain schema has. So you see, nature and nurture complement each other. Hehe nah… Moral of the story is- whatever we learn, be it academically or not, we must make sure we have our intention right. Blaja krn Allah, bkn sbb nak exam or org suro… huhu… And yes, practice makes perfectosss :)

After came back from school, I submitted my photomedia assignment. One of the themes is abstraction. Mari teka apekah benda di dalam gamba di bawah ini? Sape dpt teka die pandai ;p heee~ Jawapan akan diberi in the next post, iA… Kamu2 yg sudah tahu jawapannye dilarang meneka... lalala~

p/s to my Ukhti Ramadhan, whoever u are, if u’re reading this, selamat berpuasa ok :)
