love built to last

Sometimes breaking something is easier than making it. Or maybe for most of the time.

Same thing in relationship. Starting to know each other and beginning to like your partner is really exciting. Especially the part when we like somebody and that somebody likes us back. The feeling is so great that we feel like we're flying high in the air and there are flowers in our heart that begin to blossom.

Then we confess to each other about our feelings, about how strong our loves are to her/him. And we become girlfriend and boyfriend. We are the happiest person on earth.

But what is harder is to stay together for as long as it can be. I have friends who were together as a couple. They started their relationship like two years ago and it wasn't the easy one. They had to overcome many hindrances. But the strong of a love is invincible. Their relationship went quite well.. until recently. They broke-up. They guy said he doesn't have the feeling anymore. That's all.

I honestly understand how hard it is to make the excitement we had in the beginning to stay put. It requires patience. Me and my girlfriend, sometimes we have this 'silent' phase, an awkward moment. when we rarely talk to each other. and get annoyed by each other easily. But I try not to keep it like that for too long. And sometimes if it wasn't me, she will be the one who approaches me first.

So, relationship is really a two way process. it's like trying to make a sound by clapping which you need both of your hands. it takes two to tango.

A lesson learned for me. To be careful, to keep this relationship as long as possible or as long as eternity as I hope it would.

let's unite.

Hey, why some of you are still busy trying to divide us, to make us follow you and hate one another? Can we stop acting like we’re so different and start looking at how similar we are to each other.

We all human. And in Islam we are all same though we have different colours, cultures or size.

I understand we might have different views on almost everything. But can we stop it for a while. And work together for a more prosperous and developed nation. For the future. For our own children’s sake.

If you think we need a new and a better leader to govern and become the CEO of our country, do take part /contest in the election. And once the majority has made their decision, can you shut up for a while at least until next four years, for the next election. Stop talking already and start working.

Stop creating groups. Stop acting like we’re aliens to each other.



And since it’s Malaysia day tomorrow, I want to wish all Malaysians a happy Malaysia day!

selamat hari raya!

I just broke my last fast for this year's Ramadan. While some parts of me feeling sad for leaving Ramadan behind, a bigger part of me feeling happy that now, it is the 1st of month Syawal. it's time to rejoice and be happy, wear something nice, spray some perfume, decorate house beautifully, cook nice dishes and most importantly asking for forgiveness between us friends and families and put any bad feelings/things behind.

Though I'm celebrating this eid away from family, I'm thankful that I still able to keep in touch with them easily and that I have friends to celebrate with here in Medan, Indonesia.

I'm taking this opportunity to wish every Muslims wherever you are a very happy aidilfitri. please forgive me if there are any misdeeds or acts that might hurt you or make you angry. God bless ya!

Robert T. Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad

The final exam for psychiatry rotation is done yesterday so I was able to continue reading this book.

I knew about this book from a friend of mine, which is I believe is quite rich, he said this is one of the good book that he has read. Thank God the The Times book store in Plaza Medan Fair has this book and I bought it a few weeks ago.



This is a book that practically teaches you how to be rich. By reading this book, I've learned many things about money. The author of the book, Robert T. Kawasaki explained on how to make money work for us instead of we working for money, which is I found interesting.

My favourite part is when the writer explained about the difference between the rich, the middle class and the rich , how they spend their income , and how can somebody be trapped in a 'rat-race' or middle class trap.

Hence I think this book is a really good book for somebody like me who wants to know more about how to gain money and get out of this financial disaster or to prevent it from happening in the future. The writer also used diagrams which makes the explanation easy to be understood.

There was one night when suddenly it went blackout and I used my hand phone to shed some light so that I could keep on reading. I love this book that much.
