Berjalan Ramadan Pergi, Merangkak Air Mata Mengalir
Kejemuan aku menzahirkan rasa cinta ku kepada mu tidak akan pernah lahir wahai Ramadan. Aku cinta pada mu dan segala isi yang engkau bawa bersama mu. Pulanglah kembali wahai Ramadan, sesungguhnya pemergian mu ditangisi. Kerinduan aku kepada mu sudah mula timbul. Aku rindu pada mu. Aku rindu pada mu. Aku khuatir jika aku tidak dapat berjumpa dengan mu pada masa hadapan. Tapi aku akur jika pencipta aku dan kamu mengambil kunci jasad ku ini; kerana Dialah maha kuasa, Dialah yang berkuasa atas setiap manusia yang ada di atas muka Bumi ini. Maka sujud dan patuh ku hanya tertumpah pada tuhan ku yang satu. Tetapi Ramadan, pemergian mu menarik air mata ku mengalir turun dari kolam mata ku. Rasa rindu dan sedih akan pemergian mu tidak dapat aku tahan. Kesucian mu hilang bagai sekelip mata setelah beredarnya kamu pergi. Keriangan beribadat sujud kepada pencipta di malam hari bagai pudar warna di kain yang meniti zaman tua. Tarawikh tidak akan disebut tanpa kehadiran mu wahai Ramadan. Keenakan bangun bersahur tidak akan sama tanpa ditemani kamu wahai Ramadan.
Tapi pengganti mu perlu dilayan sebagai tetamu. Maka kemenangan aku dan seluruh umat Islam akan aku sambut pada 1 Syawal. Janganlah engkau bersedih wahai Ramadan, memori mu tidak akan luntur dari ingatan aku yang sentiasa menanti kedatangan dan seri wajah mu wahai Ramadan. Raikanlah kemenangan kita pada 1 Syawal dengan membesarkan – besarkan Allah. Takbirlah pada malam Syawal dan pada 1 Syawal itu. Sebutlah nama pencipta mu, takbirlah supaya takbir itu dapat bergema, dan memenuhi setiap pelosok langit. Gemakanlah Bumi dipijak ini dengan nama maha suci Allah yang tidak mati, tidak berjantina dan kuasa yang tiada berpenghujung. Sujudlah pada tuhan mu di pagi 1 Syawal, zahirkan rasa syukur yang tiada sempadan. Sambutlah 1 Syawal dengan penuh kesederhanaan, keinsafan dan kesyukuran. Ingatlah pada pencipta kamu, Allah SWT. Hidupnya manusia atas kuasa Allah, matinya manusia atas kehendak Allah yang satu dan segala ruh dan amal manusia adalah milik Allah ‘azawajal.

Ketaatan, Kedaulatan dan Kebudayaan
Ketika saya masih berada di sekolah dahulu, sudah menjadi kebiasaan saya untuk ke setiap kelas pada setiap pagi hari persekolahan untuk menutup lampu dan mempersilakan para pelajar supaya keluar dari kelas, berbaris di kaki lima dan bersedia untuk nyanyian lagu Negaraku dan bacaan doa. Kehairanan saya memuncak apabila memikirkan perkara ini. Jika rakyat negara ini gagal untuk melaksanakan sesuatu mudah bagi menandakan ketaatan pada negara, bagaimana pula nasib kedaulatan negara? Menghormati lagu Negaraku merupakan sesuatu yang penting. Sesuatu yang amat mudah tetapi nilai yang amat kompleks. Kegagalan rakyat negara ini menzahirkan kehormatan kepada kedaulatan negara merupakan sesuatu yang memalukan dan lansung tidak dapat diterima. Mungkin pada kebanyakan remaja, ini semua tidak mempunyai makna yang mendalam, tetapi tidaklah tentera Nippon memaksa nenek moyang kita menyanyikan lagu Kimigayo dan berdiri tegak bagi menghormati lagu tersebut. Pada hemat saya, sesiapa yang gagal menghormati lagu Negaraku sama seperti pembelot negara. Kedaulatan negara bukanlah satu lawak jenaka. Erti kedaulatan negara sukar untuk dirasai oleh jenerasi yang bebas melakukan apa sahaja yang mereka sukai. Tidak pernahkah terlintas di hati kita semua apakah akan terjadi jika kedaulatan negara kita musnah begitu saja. Keamanan akan bertaburan dan kekacauan mengalir ke setiap pelosok negara. Kita bebas melakukan apa sahaja yang kita suka. Saya juga bebas menulis artikel ini. Mustahil untuk kita semua berperilaku sebegini jika negara kita di bawah cengkaman penjajah.
Ramai berpendapat bahawa penjajahan kuasa besar ke atas negara lain tidak lagi berlaku pada ketika ini. Kebenaran pemikiran itu sukar untuk dipastikan. Memang tidak pernah lagi saya dengar kuasa-kuasa besar dunia menakluk sesuatu negara tetapi mereka hanya menceroboh dengan pelbagai alasan yang tidak munasabah. Penaklukan negara pada masa kini dan akan datang mungkin akan berubah wajah. Mungkin penaklukan akan berlaku melalui dunia tanpa sempadan, internet. Siapa yang tahu? Tetapi bukankah menghindari itu lebih dari mengubati. Bukanlah nyawa melayang jika kita menghormati lagu kebangsaan kita. Kebaikan mungkin datang dengan wajah yang gembira. Kedaulatan mungkin akan menjadi lebih sihat dan bersemangat.
Terdapat juga sebilangan pelajar yang tidak menghiraukan lagu Negaraku dan hanya duduk di dalam kelas. Mereka kelihatan lebih tekun menyiapkan kerja rumah atau mengulangkaji pelajaran. Tiada gunanya jika kita mempunyai pemikiran yang tajam, tetapi harga diri yang lebih rendah dari seorang yang hina. Di mata saya, mereka itu tiada istimewanya. Apabila saya serta rakan menegur kesalahan mereka, pandangan yang cukup 'istimewa' diberikan oleh mereka kepada saya. Saya mungkin tiada yang baiknya, saya mungkin tidak sepandai mereka, saya mungkin buta mindanya, tetapi saya cukup pasti, jika mereka gagal untuk menghormati lagu Negaraku, adakah mereka berjaya untuk menghormati diri mereka sendiri. Dunia ini ada pengakhirnya, hidup ini tak semua sempurna, nyawa ini ada simpulnya, sampai di simpul itu, maka terpisahlah jasad dan nyawa. Jika jasad dan nyawa ciptaan tuhan ini ada pengakhirnya, apatah lagi kerajaan buatan manusia. Memang semua yang hidup akan mati tetapi lebih baik kita panjangkan nyawa negara yang tercinta ini supaya kita dapat hidup untuk hari esok yang lebih bahagia dan menyediakan ruang nyawa bagi anak dan cucu kita yang akan datang. Hasrat kerajaan untuk melihat keamanan dalam negara akan menjadi lebih mudah untuk dicapai jika kita dapat sama-sama berganding bahu bagi memelihara kedaulatan negara. Tanggungjawab ini letaknya pada bahu kita semua. Menuding jari mencari kesalahan orang lain merupakan tindakan yang sia-sia kerana meludah ke langit akan jatuh ke atas batang hidung sendiri. Maka budaya tidak menghormati lagu Negaraku ini perlulah dilupuskan dengan segera tanpa syarat dan perjanjian.
Biar apa bangsa kita sekalipun atau warna kulit atau anutan agama, kita ini hanya satu keluarga. Sama-sama kita eratkan hubungan sesama kita kerana kitalah 1Malaysia.

When Smoking Is Said To Be An Attitude Problem
People usually think that underage teen who smoke has a very bad attitude. No quality can be represented by those teenagers. But we forgot something. Another problem that is worse than the attitude is on the verge of acting. A lot of them is coming and they are attacking human. Known by many names and types, health problem is what I am talking about. I don't know why people can't see this clearly. Maybe we are too busy labelling others with a lot of dirty words and sentences, thus, we forgot that those cigarette smoke can harm us too. Proven epidemiologically that smokers are 18 times more likely to develop lung cancer than non-smokers and one-third of all cancer deaths are a direct result of cigarette smoking. Now, you're talking about attitude? Stop that and move on with a better plan. People can change how they behave but once you get a cancer, sorry, you can reverse it or try to behave in a different way. It is just too late to change. Carbon monoxide produced by an incomplete burning of a material, can bind with the red blood cell irreversibly. Meaning that once the carbon monoxide bind with your red blood cell, that's it, good bye. Wait for your new red blood cell to get a fully functioning one. This hidden data is not so obvious for our teens' eyes. Why can't the government issue a programme or an article to be published in newspapers, stating the other side of cigarette 'goodness'.
Once again, it is not cool! Proven experimentally in 1960s that tumours similar to those found in humans may develop in animals exposed to cigarette smoke. Maybe you can easily recognise the experiment, the one that use beagle or 'snoopy'. It is also identified that carcinogens have been identified in tar. One of the common carcinogen found in tar is benzpyrene. Extremely harmful and may prevent tumour suppressor gene from working, resulting in active developing of cancerous tissue. From data obtained by researchers, up to 50% of smokers may die of smoking related diseases such as emphysema and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD). 98% of people with emphysema are smokers and 90% of deaths from COPD are attributed to smoking. Do I give you enough data so that you could throw away that fancy coloured cigarette pack? It is true that you will never develop any of the diseases mentioned next week or next month. It will take 20 to 30 years for any symptom to develop and tell you the universal truth about the problem that you are facing. Lung cancer for example. Once confirmed by general practitioner that you are suffering from lung cancer, that's it. No cure for that because the lung itself is as big as 2 tennis courts. Imagine tumour that spread and cover the size mentioned. You just have to wait for the next month for you to see your creator.
Seek help from your doctor. There are a lot of ways that can help you with nicotine addiction. For starter, stay away from it, it will do no harm. It will if you stay with it. It is not cool! Try to think about others. The world is not yours, you see. The world is for me and you, and that's how we are; interdependent. Stop today, tomorrow will be better for you.
This is just my opinion.

It is a great group people!

What a great group in Facebook. I was astonished by the number of fan this group registered after the third day of it's life. Just wonderful. Created by Nazrul Farhan of Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Derma, Perlis, I'd say that this group will be the next big thing. You absolutely have to sit down and buckle up as the train of memory will just drag you into your childhood memories straight away. The very first moment after I joined this group, I started to have flashbacks and dreams already. Just magnificent and beautiful as it can be. I hope other people can start joining this group including those in other continents. It may appear to be just a group but it is actually a diode to a supercomputer. This is the very momentum of history when people will start to think about their past and they will bother to drag cruelty statistic on children down. To Mr creator of this group, I have to say that you are a man with vision. Congratulations. Interested? Proceed to join them at http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=131021016908904&ref=ts

Malaysia Airlines or AirAsia?
I've been thinking of posting this article since people can't decide well which airlines to choose. However, I will try to list down all the pros and cons and strictly I say, this is just my opinions. It is your power to decide.
Malaysia Airlines System (MAS)
Pros:
- Malaysian Hospitality
- Free refreshments on board
- Check-in counter closes 1o minutes before departure
- You can choose your favourite seat via self check-in kiosk (KLIA)
- 20 kg luggage allowance
- Free newspapers
- Board the aircraft using jet way
- Highly trained pilot - Most of them are captains (need more than 100 flying hours to be a captain)
- Ticket price is reasonable provided that you book it 2 weeks earlier
- Skytrax 5 star airlines (only 6 in this whole world)
- You'll get your personal copy of Going Places, Malaysia Airlines' official magazine
Cons:
- Ticket price will be expensive if you book it near your travelling dates
- You can't check in if you arrived later than the allowed check-in time (KLIA)
- You cannot choose your seat in advance if you purchase MHlow ticket
AirAsia
Pros:
- Cheap ticket
- Skytrax low fare airlines
- Leather seats
- Huge option of refreshments on board (but I never try any of them before)
- Krispy Kreme donuts
- You can choose your favourite seat but you have to pay RM 9
- Board and disembark the aircraft using both of the aircraft's doors
Cons:
- You have to pay for check-in luggage
- Check-in counter closes 45 minutes before departure
- Board the aircraft using the 'movable ladder'
- Free refreshments are not available
- Good hospitality is rarely available
- Ticket price will be more expensive in the weekends and public holidays (Last time I checked, AirAsia's ticket is RM 20 more expensive than MAS's ticket for the last Hari Raya Aidilfitri and in the weekends, AirAsia's ticket price will be about the same as MAS's ticket
- Convenience fee of RM 10 is not so convenience
These are everything that I managed to list. Now, you decide. For me, I'll choose MAS because the price is reasonable or cheaper (free refreshments, 20 kg checked-in luggage allowance), safety and unbeatable Malaysian hospitality. But, I'll have to choose AirAsia if MAS's ticket is too expensive. But still, the best way to do is, when you want to buy ticket, just check with both airliners. It is better that way. Firefly? For me, too expensive and not worth it.

Mc Donald's In Perlis?

Is it 'a dream come true' moment? Well, it is still far from that. Apparently, we have KFC and Pizza Hut in Perlis. That is quite common for people in Perlis since we've been exposed to that for quite some time. Recently, Secret Recipe joined the game. Do you think they can compete and stay in the game or they are going to quit soon? I'm not an economist, so I can't predict or tell you any predictions. According to one of my friend, according to the Perlis's economy projections, we might not able to have a McDonald's in Perlis. But, that is just according to him.
I went to KFC last March with my old good friend and one of the smartest Derma's student. As he is eating his meal, I saw a girl, sitting in one of the restaurant's corner, drinking iced Milo while texting her friend about something. I've been wondering since. If that girl can spend RM3 on a glass of iced Milo while she can get 1 litre of the same drink with the same price 100 metres away, this is a good news. She can spend quite a lot of money on just iced Milo. Then I turned around. Owh kay! There are quite number of them with the same case as mentioned. This is a better news. If they can spend money on those simple stuff, this means that they can afford to have McD as their breakfast, lunch, dinner or even supper.
Even the economy projections say that you are not able to build one in the near future, it is just saying. Maybe it is a truth but as long as I don't see any data on papers, I am convinced that we can have one(McD) in the near future. Absolutely it will invite the 'bomber' of risks to attack your very foundation of courage in taking risks. That is business. People with expertise in business and tonnes of money in their account should try to join the game.
But, will the business profitable? I don't know. Maybe we need more surveys and datas. I heard that Perlis will have 12-screen cinema and Parkson soon. Maybe that is only a joke. But, please, before you open all of that, why dont you open a McD first. Maybe that is better. I don't know. I'm just saying.
p/s: Pardon me for the bad quality of English. I'm not good in English and I'm a very bad English user but I'm still trying to improve my English. Have a good day.

When the captain abandoned the ship
I don't know what kind of crap are they thinking and please, someone, do something. You no longer have your captain in service and your vessel is sinking. Wait for him no more because the longer you wait for your captain to respond, the more damage you will do to your ship. Obviously in these moments, someone has to do the decisions. I'm just saying. Remember, I have no authority in helping them. What I can do is urge them to think. Be an adult please, oh my junior prefects. Think. You can't think because your mind is bloody children. Be an adult. You are a child living in an adult's body. You can afford spending time to think about those adult's stuff but you deliberately don't want to spend time to think about how to solve this. SMKD Prefectorial Board, please, help yourself.

Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince

Rating: 9 out of 10
Yea, Harry Potter. I think this is the best Harry Potter movie among the other 5. So to speak. It is because how the director together with the screenwriter shape the movie. For me, the boredom part is none. I can watch this movie for 10 times without getting bored. So far, I watched it twice. Hehe. It is a great Harry Potter movie, OK.
The reason why I put Dumbledore's poster over here because its not fair to put anyone else's photo. C'mon, I mean he passed away, right? Pity Dumbledore anyway. It is kinda sad the moment he got killed but when I knew that he instructed Severus Snape to do that, I'm cool. Everybody know that, right?
I urge you to watch this movie because I think it is a waste not to watch it. Just go to TGV Sunway Pyramid, but the ticket for show before 11.00 a.m. because it is RM 9.00 compared to RM 12.00 in the afternoon. Hehehe. Unless you have a student card.
People, my Taking of Pelham 123 review will be coming tomorrow. GTG
Public Enemies

Rating: 9 out of 10
I watched this movie on Friday after Friday Prayers. Hehehe. The only thing that can describe this movie is WOW!. It is just amazing on how they make this movie. Full of surprise, love, agressive act and many more.
The sound effects are the best factor in this movie. You can feel the sound of real tommy gun operates. In the a sense of how does it really works. Like someone with tommy gun inside the cinema hall shooting like hell.
Johnny Depp really makes this movie the greatest gangster movies of all time. But, it's faily long movie that can just a tad draggy at some points, but it is interesting and deserves to be told.
However, I've to say this. the presence of Christian Bale is quite dull. He's like quite in control, so, it is not so natural.
Transformers: The Revenge of The Fallen

Rating: 8 out of 10
Hey guys, I'm back. Sorry for the delay and everything. Currently, I'm quite busy with my college life. So, today, I finally get the chance to talk crap about these movie things.
So, I had decided to start with Transformers 2 because this is the movie that I watched after the Alien vs Monster.
Nothing much that I can say but this francise of the film is a lil bit better than the older one. Why? I found out that the coolness factor is better in the second edition. However, the satisfaction guaranteed. No worry about spending your Ringgit on the ticket.
So, for those who haven't watch this film yet, c'mon, get out, head to a cinema, doesn't matter wether it is TGV or GSC, just go and watch this movies.

Alien vs Monster

Rating: 6.5 out of 10
Alien Problem? Monster solution. Lol. Of course, what else you do expect? Monsterous image quality, it is like the real image. Like a real thing but actually it is the 3D effect. This is a great movie, but, if they can put a little bit more adventure, then this will be a perfect movie.
The laughing experience, it is unstopable. I like Ginormica, cute, pretty and, of course, Reese Witherspoon. And the Dr Cockroach Ph.D next. Simply a smart insect/person and voice by Hugh Laurie or better known as 'Dr House'.
B.O.B or the jelly play quite important role in this movie because without him/her (I don't know which side B.O.B. belongs to) there will be no laughing experience.

17 Again

Rating: 8 out of 10
Such a beautifully crafted movies with a several points of memorabilia. I don't know what else to say because this is such a great movie. Just have to say this, I just can't stop buying the tickets; of course to this movie. I don't find any boring part.
Plus, Zac Efron makes a perfect answer to those who was wondering why am I saying this movie is a great movie. How he play his role in this movie was amazing. The laughing experience was fantastic since most parts and scenes of this movie embeded with jokes.
So, what are you all waiting for, go to the cinema, or book the ticket online. This is a-must-watch movie. I love this movie!!!!!!!!!

Night At The Museum: The Battle of Smithsonian

Rating: 7 out of 10
Yeah, Night At The Museum: The Battle of Smithsonian or better known as Night At The Museum 2. Pretty good movie. And due to the genre, of course I just can't stop laughing; throughout the movie. I don't know whether I do disturb the person next to me but I just can't take it anymore. Everything is hilarious. Hilarious? Yup, that is the only word that can describe this movie.
Maybe some credit should be given to Robert Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon, the writers for their great job. This movie is a-must-see movie and great hang out activity for a family.
And I'll bet, you'll never get bored because you might spill some of your pop corn or drinks. Satisfaction guaranteed.

X Men Origin:Wolverine

Rating: 8 out of 10
Sebuah cerita yang memaparkan aksi - aksi yang amat mendebarkan dan tidak jemu menonton. Jika saya mempunyai pilihan, saya menonton filem ini berulang - ulang kali. Semestinya tanpa jemu.
David Benioff & Skip Woods membentuk jalan cerita yang amat baik dari permulaan, klimaks dan peleraian. Jalan cerita pada permulaannya amat menarik apabila digambarkan Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) pada asalnya mempunyai pencakar yang terbentuk dari tulang dan kemudian pencakarnya ditukar kepada adimantium apabila menyertai program 'Weapon X'. Cerita ini lerai apabila akhirnya Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) bersama abangnya, Sabretooth (Liev Schreiber) bersatu menentang Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) yang telah diubahsuai dan digabung bebrapa kuasa keatasnya. Namun, walaupun memiliki beberapa kuasa yang hebat, dia tetap kalah kepada gabungan Wolverine dan Sabretooth.
Tidak juga lupa penghargaan yang harus diberi kepada Gavin Hood yang mengarah cerita ini seterusnya membentuk satu masterpiece beliau. 'Worth watching'.

Demokrasikan Badan Pengawas Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Derma
- Kebanyakan kita sudah tahu bahawa demokrasi itu prosesnya datang dari barat. Tetapi demokrasi itu membawa kepuasan hati semua pihak, membataskan persoalan dan mewujudkan suasana yang amat konduktif bagi produktiviti kerja.
- Tanpa demokrasi, saya percaya, keadaan huru hara akan wujud dan kepimpinan berkualiti tidak akan wujud dek kerana kerapkali akan menerima penderaan.
- Dalam konteks Badan Pengawas Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Derma, saya menuntut proses demokrasi digunapakai dalam pemilihan ketua pengwas dan golongan elitnya. Pengundian secara menyuluruh perlu dijalankan dan setiap pengawas perlu mengundi termasuk calon ketua pengwas itu sendiri.
- Hal ini kerana, pertamanya, jika kita lihat pada konteks pencalonan, hanya individu yang berwibawa, berkualiti dan berketerampilan sahaja yang berani untuk menawarkan diri untuk bertanding. pada masa yang sama, jika mereka terpilih, sudah pasti kepimpinan badan pengawas akan menjadi berkualiti. Tiadalah mereka yang mengampu akan menjadi pemimpin. Individu yang lemah sudah pastinya tidak akan menawarkan diri untuk bertanding kerana mereka sedar diri mereka lemah. Jika kalah, mereka yang akan menanggung malu. Dan sudah pastinya mereka akan kalah.
- Keduanya, pemimpin yang telah menang pilihanraya pastinya merupakan pemimpin yang hebat. Ini kerana, para pengawas memilih pemimpin itu kerana mereka akan berasa selamat jika bernaung di bawah pemimpin itu. Pemimpin juga akan menjadi lebih kuat dan jawatannya akan menjadi kukuh kerana semua pengawas bertindak menyokong pemimpin terpilih. Malah, pemimpin itu juga mampu menepis segala cabaran, amaran atau ancaman dari pihak lain kerana kewajaran dia sebagai pemimpin tidak boleh dipertikai sama sekali. Semua pengawas menyokong pemimpin terpilih itu. Jadi apa yang perlu ditakutkan.
- Tetapi bagaimana jika pemimpin dipilih pihak tertentu? Lebih buruk lagi apabila pemimpin itu dibenci ramai. Semestinya akan membawa masalah kepada badan pengwas. Lihat sahaja pada apa yang berlaku pada badan pengawas sekarang. Diboikot? Dibenci? Disisih?
- Fenomena ini akan membawa kesusahan dalam segala aktiviti kita bagi menguatkuasakan disiplin pada masa akan datang. Malah, pada apa yang saya dapati, ada juga pemimpin pilihan pihak tertentu ini menghalau guru dan sebagainya. Menghukum orang lain tanap usul periksa. Apa semua ini?
- Jadi, saya berharap agar demokrasi dijadikan asas kepada pemilihan pemimpin di dalam badan pengawas.
