Rakan Pergi

Kepada yang sudi membaca blog saya ini,

Saya ingin memaklumkan dengan sedihnya bahawa rakan saya Cikgu Abd Aziz b. Samad telah kembali ke rahmatullah pada petang semalam. Arwah telah mengadu sakit dada dan orang rumahnya telah menelefon abang iparnya dari Dengkil untuk menghantarnya ke hospital. Mengikut abang ipar arwah, dalam kereta lagi keadaan arwah cukup tenat dan apabila sampai di Hospital KPJ Kajang beliau telah pun meninggal dunia.

Saya pun dimaklumkan oleh Faridah (Hj.Ali) yang mendapat berita dari Nizam (SU Sukan). Tergamam sekejap bila mendapat berita. Aziz memang sakit sudah lama. Badannya yang berisi beransur kurus. Khabarnya sakit kencing manis tetapi dia sering mengadu sakit-sakit badan. Nak berjalan dari bengkel Auto ke kantin pun suatu torture/penyiksaan, kata arwah kepada saya dahulu.

Kali terakhir berjumpa dengan dia ialah di Dewan Sri Gemilang Sek.Men Teknik Kajang masa Pengetua dan Doktor dari Jabatan Kesihatan mengumumkan sekolah dicutikan kerana wabak H1 N1. Masa itu, walaupun kurang sihat arwah kelihatan ceria saja dan memberi isyarat kepada anaknya (tingkatan 4 kelas Automotif) untuk balik.

Tahun ini walaupun kesihatannya sering terganggu nampak Aziz lebih tekun bekerja. Fail dan dokumentasi yang berkenaan dengan tugasnya tip top dibandingkan dengan dengan tahun-tahun terdahulu. Bila diminta mewakili sekolah ataupun tugasan lain di sekolah jarang beliau menolak. Satu lagi tabiatnya yang paling ketara ialah menziarah keluarga kawan atau kenalan yang ada kematian. Masa emak saya meninggal pun, dia adalah antara orang yang paling awal sampai.

Arwah Abd Aziz b. Samad meninggalkan kita pada usia yang muda, sekitar 41 tahun. Semoga Allah SWT mencucuri rahmatnya dan memasukkan dia dalam golongan orang-orang yang salehin. Kepada isteri dan anak-anaknya diharapkan bersabar dan redha dengan ujian tuhan ini.

Kepada para pembaca marilah kita sedekahkan Al-Fatihah kepada arwah Abd Aziz b. Samad. Amin.

A friend, Pn.Aisyah Ithnin who is also a committee member of my schools PTA forwarded to me this reminder:

Petua 8P Ustazah Siti Nurbahyah

Siti Nur Bahyah berkata,
1) P yang pertama ialah 'puji' iaitu setiap pasangan perlu saling memuji antara satu sama lain dalam semua aspek kehidupan seperti masakan atau ucapan terim! a kasih apabila diberi pertolongan.
2) Katanya, P kedua ialah 'peluk' yang mana pasangan suami isteri hendaklah selalu peluk memeluk antara satu sama lain sekerap mungkin pada setiap hari kerana pelukan itu adalah belaian penuh kasih sayang.
3) P seterusnya ialah 'penghargaan' di mana amalan memberi hadiah boleh menambah kasih sayang.
4) 'Perhatian' adalah P keempat yang mesti diambil berat kerana kekurangan perhatian boleh mengakibatkan pasangan terasa diabaikan, katanya yang menulis buku Cakar Harimau - Tips Kebahagiaan Rumah Tangga, Amalan Ibu Mengandung dan Panduan Mencerdaskan Minda.
5) Siti Nur Bahyah berkata, P seterusnya mewakili 'persefahaman'
6) Menurutnya, P selanjutnya membawa maksud 'pergaulan' iaitu pasangan suami isteri mesti menjaga pergaulan masing-masing dengan orang lain bagi mengelakkannya daripada melampaui batas, menimbulkan cemburu seterusnya membawa kepada pembabitan orang ketiga.
7) Beliau berkata, satu lagi P adalah 'percutian' di mana kita perlu merancang percutian berdua-duaan dengan pasangan di tempat yang jauh daripada kesibukan dan kehidupan rutin.
8) Katanya, P yang terakhir ialah 'permohonan' iaitu doa kepada Allah supaya merapatkan kasih sayang antara pasangan suami isteri serta dijauhi daripada godaan kemewahan dan keseronokan dunia.
Siti Nur Bahyah juga menurunkan beberapa amalan doa selepas solat yang boleh merapatkan hubungan dan menimbulkan kasih sayang antara suami isteri iaitu membaca surah Al-Imran ayat ke-31 atau membacakan ayat ke-200 surah sama bagi mengurangkan panas baran suami.

Beliau berkata, kunci kebahagiaan rumah tangga yang sebenar ialah mendekatkan diri dengan Allah.Katanya, apabila seseorang insan mengabaikan tanggung jawab terhadap agama, dia akan mengabaikan rumah tangga kerana jiwa yang kosong."Ketika kita jauh daripada Allah, iblis yang suka umat manusia bercerai-berai akan menghampiri dan melalaikan kita daripada tanggung jawab terhadap keluarga," katanya."sampaikanlah pesanan yang bermanfaat walaupun 1 ayat"

Michael Jackson's New Fan

Michael Jackson may have gone to another world but his spirit lives on.

When news of Michael's death reach us, there were renewed interest in his songs, music, images and videos.

I made it my duty to inform the younger generation on Michael's contributions to the entertainment industry. For example the "Thriller" was the first of its kind - a music video directed by an acclaimed director.

I played Michael's songs from my collection as well as downloaded videos from You-tube. And surprise...surprise my youngest son Farhad seemed to pick it up from there. Not a single day passed without Farhad blaring former hits like "Beat-it" and "You are not alone". He dance along and especially enjoys the Smooth Criminal video ...and mind you he is only five years old.

In the mean time Farhads' brothers and sister has to endure his antics. When the signature tune to the "Beat it" song is heard for the umpteenth time, they quietly moan:

"Ohhhh...not again!!!)

Cuti H1 N1

Rasa pelik pagi ini. Mungkin kerana tak pergi sekolah hari ini. Dalam entry terdahulu, saya dah nyatakan yang sekolah Menengah Teknik Kajang dicutikan seminggu kerana 3 orang pelajarnya didapati positif kena virus H1 N1.

Semalam, Ahad 26 Ju.lai 09 ada call Atan dari SMAP Kajang. Rupanya sekolah dia juga kena cuti mulai hari Jumaat lepas. Yang hairannya, sekolah kami dan juga sekolah Teknik JB yang diarah cuti tidak pulak masuk surat khabar atau main news di TV. Mungkin juga pihak yang bertanggung jawab tidak mahu rakyat panic agaknya.

Hari ini berkesempatanlah hantar Fayyad untuk ke klinik gigi di Pusat Kesihatan Kerajaan. (tapi kena datang hari Jumaat kerana hari lain dikhaskan untuk orang dewasa saja). Lepas itu pergi Pejabat Pos, masukkan sedikit duit ke tabung ASB. Lepas tu join Burn dan Hasnol dalam projek tanam cili kami. Alamak kerja sedikit sahaja....badan dah sakit-sakit. Kena dibiasakan.

Rosli, driver bas Teknik Kajang juga ada turut serta membantu. Ringanlah beban. Esok, kalau badan tak sakit, nak join dia orang lagi. Ingat nak ambil gambar sekali...boleh tayang dalam blog ini.

Birthday

26 Julai 2009 - happy birthday to me !! ha ha ha

As of now, 12.22 pm only 4 people have wished me Happy Birthday:

1) Celcom - the birthday messages started since 2 days ago with promises of free sms's.

2) My wife .....strangely through sms. I didn't hear it directly from her mouth.

3) My good friend Susan, aka financial consultant

4) Radziah ...my 'virtual' sister

Whatever happened to the old fashioned but direct "happy Birthday" darling or ayah or Joned.
I guess i have myself to blame because I (sometimes) ridicule other people who make a fuss about birthdays.

"So you age more year ...what's the big deal!" - i use to say.

Perhaps i'm getting more sentimental over the years ....he he he.
Perhaps " You should do unto others what you want other people to do for you"
Should i start taking other people's birthday seriously?

I have until next year to find out.

Many thanks again to the 4 i've mentioned above. You have made my day!!

I am in a reminiscing mood ......i decided to check on the college where i did my A-levels back in Sept 1979 to Sept 1981. According to Wikipedia, Nene College,Northampton has become the University of Northampton sometime in 2005. Where are my old college mates? Saharuddin, Kamarulzaman, Farid Iskandar Ehsan. I know Abd Rahman is in Bandar Baru Bangi. Noraida who is married to Norsham is somewhere up north .....

I met Noraida a couple of times at LPM meetings. Abd Rahman is married to err...alamak i've forgotten her name, our junior at Nene College. Mary Magdalena Komuji is in JPN Sabah. I asked to meet me at SM Teknik Likas, Kota Kinabalu, when i was there for a working visit back in 2005...i think.

Must try harder to get in touch with my old friends...... i'll try to get some photos in.

You Swine!!! Part 2

After coming back form SM Teknik Sepang with Maznah to pick up 10 students who attended the program Cemerlang Bersama, i met up with Osman, the PK HEM. He told me that it is finally confirmed by the Health Dept people that 3 of our students got the swine flu virus (H1 N1).

At the same time I 've also got word tha Ayu got a baby boy yesterday. Congratulations!!!

Mother and son were advised to balik kampung for Ayu's confinement. We don't want the baby to catch the dreaded "swine flu", do we? All the best to Ayu and baby!!

You Swine!!

Everyday throughout this week, my students have been asking whether they will be able to balik kampong during the coming weekend. I told them I don't know.
"Go ask the PK HEM!! (Senior Assistant in charge of student affairs)" I told them.

This week is also our TEST WEEK. As far as the students are concerned "TEST is not as bad as "EXAM". It's more like a formative assessment. By the time the test started on Wednesday morning we noticed that quite a number of students requested to go to the clinic (government) because they are not feeling well. By thursday morning the hostel wardens informed us a considerable number fell ill and were taken back by their parents.

The boss, En.Ghazaly asked for the health dept personel to come over and do some random test. By then, lots of students weren't feeling well.

Come this morning (Friday), I am beginning to regret giving out the orders to Pah (Exam Sec.) to continue with the test despite dwindling numbers of students. Around noon, we received news that the doctor on duty declared that the situation is quite grave and schhol has to be closed for a week. thus a hastily called gathering was held in our Dewan Sri Gemilang and the boss and the doctor spoke. There was a mixture of gladness and sadness among the students. Glad because they are homesick (for those staying in) and sad because they have to miss their lessons - especially the form 5's.

Orang kahwin

Tahniah kepada Rozaidah bt Ismail aka Abang Ali sempena majlis walimatul urusnya hari ini. Emak Rozaidah adalah kakak sulong kepada orang rumah saya. Mereka tinggal di Kg Sg Tungku tidak jauh dari Teluk Intan, Perak.

Saya ni kalau majlis orang kawin memang jarang duduk-duduk saja tanpa membuat sebarang kerja. Apatah lagi kalau majlis kawin saudara-mara atau kawan-kawan rapat dalam satu taman. Tapi lain dulu...lain sekarang. Kerja kuat sikit asyik aje sakit-sakit badan dibuatnya.

Ya lah dah nak masuk 48 26 Julai ini. Cuma DG 48 saja belum dapat-dapat lagi. Belum ada rezeki kot.

Slaemat Pengantin Baru Rozaidah dan Abas!!
