NEGARAKU


I should be doin tech at the moment..yet, neither Mandy or Al3sh (my groupmate) has shown up.. therefore..im giving some space to myself...to write a word or two of my thought, feelings, emotions and whatever seems to come across my mind at the moment...to the deepest of my heart.. i have to say that i really miss home, Malaysia... despite the chaos and misery mode of political agenda...i still miss my beloved country...neither Australia or anywhere on earth could replace the love that i have towards Malaysia...its a place where i grew up..knew nights and days.. a land where i put my very first step on...learn to walk and run...a piece of earth that witnessess my joy and pain....on its land where all my loves gathered and scattered...beneath its sky i treasured my childhood...a place where the heart is... the formation of malaysia and the story behind is so much to learn from....the sacrifices of my forefathers, the blessing of Allah upon those who strive hard...history teaches us so much about todays and tomorrows...there is always a moment in this life when we have to look back and reflect... appreciate and treasure...these thing, i learned in Malaysia..but the ungrateful me was too naive and care free that i take my own sensitivity and patriotism towards malaysia for granted...the name " MALAYSIA " to me was just merely a name of a piece of land where one could live in..but i guess, i have come to the sense of being a better Malaysian...Appreciate..yes..appreaciate the peace and beauty of my own country... all the deficiency is nothing to be ashamed of..but something to take as responsiblity as an agent of changes... "Hujan emas di negeri orang, hujan batu di negeri sendiri, ambil emas dari negeri orang bawa balik negeri sendiri.."thats what i will do, insyaAllah...Allah bless Malaysia insyaAllah....OK.. i have to continue with my werk..a lot more to come insyaAllah...

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
