if only...

hye peeps,
just watched "Oprah Winfrey show". it showcased few of talented children. i was astounded with the amount of talented kids out there and the talents that they have. there's one children who is very talented in tv hosting and she got the chance to interview taylor swift which is her favorite singer ever. there's also one boy who sings like an angel and made goosebumps all over me.

i was very attracted to one of many quotations made by taylor swift. she said and i quote" when you have a dream and something that you really want to do, just go for it and never look back. you'll experience the ups and downs but just cherish every moment of it. at the end of the day, you'll be amazed with what you've achieved and be thankful with all the experience you've gained".

i couldn't agree more. but if only i could turn back time and do what i really wanted to do. if only i could be able to experience the ups and downs and the obstacles in realizing the dreams which i long for. but it's all too late now.

but to be in the positive side, although what i did for these past years has not been one of my dreams to be doing, but i'm very thankful of all the experiences i've gained. i tried my best to make my mind to take this positively and bring all the "good" vibes towards all my actions and behaviors.

just one more year, zaim. be patient.

and all your sacrifices will be worth doing and you'll be one of the best in the profession that you'll be in- a TEACHER that is.

in just one more year, you'll be hearing cute little voices shouting your name out loud, "Good Morning, Sir Zaim". to be honest, can't wait for that time to come.

with that, i do believe that teaching is a profession where you have to be in it to love it. the experiences that somehow hook you up to it.

till then, i'm a great believer of this saying " a great teacher inspires". that's what i'm aiming for. pray for me.

thanks.

regards,
zaim

ayah, abah, papa, daddy,abi...

salam peeps,
i love kids. period. i love being accompanied by kids all the time regardless of their naughty well being and attitude. i love seeing their faces and the laughter and joy that they portray through their pretty little faces. i love it when they try to get your attention by doing silly things. i love the serenity that you can get when you see their innocent faces. They are are little angels that make your day full of happiness. that's why i choose to teach in a primary school.
i always dream of becoming a father one day. i always try to imagine the day when i first welcome my own baby and the way that i'll teach him or her to be a good person. i want to get the feeling of hearing my child calling "ayah", "abah", "daddy" or "papa" to me. i know that will also come with huge responsibilities but i seriously want to experience the calmness that u can get by hearing your child calling your name. this has always been the topic of discussion among my friends and I. When they started to talk about children, kids, babies etc, i started becoming very attentive and "alive" in the discussion.

i have been mistaken to be having my own kids a lot. there was this one time when i was on a flight to tasmania. there were a mother and her pretty little daughter who were seated in front of me. i started to play with the daughter and suddenly the mother turned around and said " how many kids do you have?". and i was like,"hhhmm, i dun have any kids. i'm still studying." and she replied " you are very good at handling kids. you'll be a great father one day." and at that moment, i was very happy and overwhelmed. at first i was a bit shocked as i thought of maybe my face looked a bit older. but realizing the fact that most people in Australia married and have their own kids at a very young age somehow swept away my negative thought. and the recognition that the mother gave to me was really aspiring and motivational.

can't wait to have my own family. a big happy family. me, my wife, and three little angels. two boys and 1 girl. ;). that's only a plan. it'll all be in God's hand.

adios kudos muchos.

wtf...

salam everyone..
hhmm how ironic to start with a salam when u have a post with a "cursing" title. anyways, just received my flight ticket back to Malaysia from the government. was pretty happy and excited. on the other hand, i was pretty upset and shocked with what i've seen. guess what? my flight ticket back to malaysia costs rm11583!!!! i was extremely shocked when i saw the amount stated in the itinerary. it was ridiculous when u have to pay that amount of money for a one way economy class ticket. even a business class ticket on the same airline to malaysia from brisbane only costs you rm8000 max.

so that means, the government has to pay at least rm300,000 for all 26 of us in brisbane to go back to malaysia. well, how about my fellow colleagues in new zealand and the uk?? how much had the government spent just to get us back to malaysia? yup, i know we should be grateful and blessed with all the sponsorship that we've got. personally, i am grateful and blessed. but thinking of having to pay a huge amount of money when u can get a cheaper deal really frustrates me. let say, if the ticket only costs about rm 4000. so where the hell is the other rm7000++?? into the pocket of some culprit(s) that only think of grabbing the opportunity that they can get to "steal" the money from the government??i don't really get it.

i know i dun have the power to change all of this. i just want to express my dissatisfaction. i know politics have its own good and bad. but sometime i dun really get the idea of having the power to manipulate other people. when u have the power, u should use it wisely. when u have the responsible, u have to do it with honor and respect. u shouldn't neglect it or just do take it for granted.

this is why sometime i do think i dun even make the cut of being in the political arena. i'd rather be at the "background" than be the front runner.

hope politics in malaysia do change for a better future of the nation.

adios kudos.

mr remedy's in brisbane...

hi peeps,

i went to jason mraz's concert last tuesday (14/4) at brisbane convention center with a few of my friends (syefah, taqwa,jg,aiman,zul,faddy,sani &ayu). it started at about 7.30 pm and ended at 11pm.it was a hell of experience.first time in my life that i encountered a concert that was so laid back and relaxing. there were 2 guests' performance from a girl name sarah mitchell(i dunno whether i spell the name right) from melbourne and a superb guy by the name of eric hutchinson. the girl opened the concert but i was a bit dissappointed as i coulndn't hear what she was singing. the music was fine but i kept on putting my listening ears to its highest ability just to hear what she was singing.but nevermind.then, eric came. he was totally different to the girl before coz he was very energetic and fun. he's really an entertainer. i enjoyed looking at him working the stage and the crowd on. he interacted and entertained the audience maginificiently. he has attracted me with his music.i'm gonna find his cd later.hehehe.for more info about him and to listen to his songs, just log on to this website. (http://www.erichutchinson.com/). you'll love his songs.trust me.;)

and them mr mraz came to the stage.the crowd went crazy.so as my friend, syefah.it was her dream of going to mr mraz concert.without a doubt, he is a superb entertainer. he didn't look awkward on stage and he was very relaxing and fun to look at. he sang most of the songs from his latest album which i have analyzed and tried to memorize the lyrics for these past few weeks. but i really wanted him to sing his "evergreen" songs like remedy and you and i both love.but anyways, i really enjoyed myself.especially when he started to sing "I'm Yours".i shouted my heart out and sang along with him throughout the song. it was fantabulous!!

some of the pictures from the concert:

of a pyschotic housemate and ABPBH 2008

hye peeps,
today's monday.i woke up at 10.30am.a bit late.but i really need my sleep since i've been longing for a good rest since past few days.it's currently raining outside.cold.freezing.chilled.enough said.

having breakfast today.or should i say our brunch.at 11 am i guess.later, a few of my friends decided to play Wii Mario Kart.it was very fun.we were enjoying ourselves when suddenly we heard a knock at the door.hhhmm.and suddenly we were all staring at each other,guessing who's on earth to be knocking at our door during this rainy day.and to our surprise it was our housemate.the one who stays below our house.

fyi, my friends and I(who are all malaysians) are staying in a two storrey country house(?????) and we're all staying upstairs.while the lower part of the house accomodate other foreign students from germany.france and sweden.

enough of the description. and this fella came to knock our door just to acknowledge our high pitch and loud voice and that somehow distracted her sleep. she came with this annoyed and frustrated look which we ignored totally. and the she started nagging "i'm trying to sleep.u guys said yoshi yoshi(which is one of the characters in the game).and u cried (???) loud.i can't sleep.u disturb me."that's how she confronted us. and then i apologize to her for being disrespectful of her right to sleep in the morning.and the she left.

and we were saying."What the f***k man!(WTF)".ok.let me put this into words and elaborate it. she was talking about being noisy and loud when she herself conducted a party almost every weekend which distracted our sleeps.so WTF(again)!.and we cried??.WTF(again)!.u mean "we shouted" or "screamed"?.and for her to be knocking on our door with her f""king ugly face and started to tell us of what we aren't supposed to do, again, WTF!. first, she was being so rude by simply blaming us without asking politely. second, that face??.that annoyed and disgusted face of yours.i can picture ur face clearly.the very moment u came to knock on our door.my friends who were there can see that face which we raged in anger for.i can assure anyone who sees the face would feel the same as we felt on that very moment.

we were very dissappointed with that scenario.yes, we admit that we did make noise but not as loud as u guys did when u held ur freaking parties.enough said.we came to a decision to just shut our mouth up and see what she wants to do next.yes, we are very kind and respectful people.

ok.enough of the story and gossiping. last night, Anugerah Bintang Popular Berita Harian was held. but i missed it.damn!.just because i dun know which website can i go to watch the event live.plus i have to do my assignment.but anyways, Acan did tell me of a good news.Datuk Siti won again.she won that category for 12 times in a row.what an achievement!.i'm very proud of her.she's totally my idol.and yesterday, acan had found out that siti will be organizing a concert in june.aaaahhh~~.i'll totally miss it.damn!.i really want to go to her concert.since now she's considering to retire and probably i will not be seeing her in a concert again.i hope she'll postpone the concert till the end of this year or next year.then i can go.

List of all the winners of that night.

That's all peeps.for those who are currently on holidays,enjoy ur hols.for those who are preparing for the exam,good luck!.

cheers,
zaim
