Of mocha

Dua tiga hari lepas, aku ke 7Eleven di universiti aku untuk refill coffee. Normally aku akan ambil hot coffee sebab refill ni bentuk dia lebih kurang sama dengan bekas untuk hot coffee tapi hari tu aku ambil mocha, the cold one sebab dah lama tak minum sejuk sejuk. Dekat tempat ambil coffee tu tertulis refill 1.72usd if I'm not mistaken. So yeah I knew the price is 1.72usd. So I fill up my coffee and head to the counter.


Bila sampai je dekat counter tu, mamat cashier tu punch the coffee for 0.89usd. I was like betul ke 0.89usd ni dalam hati. Lepas tu dalam hati aku macam "Nevermind, the cashier punch the number, not me, so I was like it should be correct then". Lepas tu aku swipe la debit card untuk bayar. Then I got my receipt. Keluar je aku tengok dekat receipt tu tulis hot beverage instead of cold beverage. Dah rasa bersalah dah sikit tapi aku buat buat macam okay la kot dah cashier tu tekan macam tu.

I head to Tech Center then to do some works. Lepas buat je keje dekat Tech Center tu aku rasa macam nak baca sikit before class start, some more I have test the next day untuk satu subject ni. Bukak je buku baca sikit teringat air tadi. Buat tak peduli. Baca lagi. Teringat lagi. Tak tenang. Betul tak tenang. Lepas tu asyik fikir lama lama I then decided to go to 7Eleven again to buy the same ice coffee but I only refill 1/5 of the refill cup so hoping that it will cover the cost of ice coffee that I bought earlier. So aku isi 1/5 and head to the counter.

Masa nak bayar tu minah cashier tu punch ice coffee for the same amount that mamat cashier tu punch, 0.89usd and she punched it for hot bevarage too. So I told her since aku tengok harga dekat machine untuk isi coffee tu written 1.72usd "I took the cold beverage, not hot beverage.". Dia pun jawab "Hot or cold its still a refill, 0.89usd". So aku tanya balik "You sure?" Dia jawab "Yeap"

Lepas tu aku pun swipe card with 1/5 refill. Tapi dengan rasa phewwww. Lega dude. Mana tak, rasa macam makan harga 7Eleven retails tadi bila bayar macam tak cukup. Aku terfikir, macam mana la agaknya rasa perasuah, orang yang makan harta orang lain, pencopek, peragut. Beza 1usd lebih aku dah rasa tak sedap semacam hati. Mintak jauh dari benda-benda macam tu bila aku dah kerja nanti. Lain kali kalau aku rasa orang mana silap buat kena tanya terus. Tak boleh buat macam ni lagi.

Muhasabah diri.

“Dan janganlah sebahagian kamu memakan harta sebahagian yang lain di antara kamu dengan jalan yang batil dan (janganlah) kamu membawa (urusan) harta itu kepada hakim, supaya kamu dapat memakan sebahagian daripada harta benda orang lain itu dengan (jalan berbuat) dosa, padahal kamu mengetahui.” (Al-Baqarah: 188)

Discipline

Pagi tadi a friend of mine gave me a video link of Prof Tariq Ramadan - The Quest for Meaning. In the video, it says


"Without discipline, my ego is the first jail of myself."

Agree much with this. Sama juga dengan yang orang selalu cakap, what makes a person great is his/her attitude. Tingkah laku kita. Sifat kita. Contoh yang sangat nyata di sini adalah kita sebagai pelajar. Kalau disiplin tak tau mana hala, macam mana kita nak berjaya. Yes, mungkin short term your fate might be different but attitude ni tak tahan lama kalau tak ubah ke arah kebaikan.

So, let us be discipline in whatever things we are doing.


Kalau boring-boring study bukak link ni.

Lets start our weekdays fresh!

Perdus

This weekend I'm a bit free. Just survived 3 exams in a week.

But I don't really survived I think since my results seems like a little pain in the ass.
Guess I have to work hard and smart for the upcoming exams to cover it up.
And hopefully I can fix it.

Bagi aku hidup ini speechless. Byk sgt benda utk diperkatakan. Ada suka, ada duka, ada susah, ada senang.
But whats important is we to go through it wisely, learn something from our journey and not to forget others too, for the good of ourselves and people around us and not to forget the future generations.
Sebab last last kita akan mati dan akan disoal tentang macam mana kita gunakan masa hidup kita di dunia ni.
Think about it. :)

ooVoo

Biasanya hari Sabtu aku akan ada satu session utk ooVoo with family.
Dan biasanya its in the morning, around 9am +.
Aku: 9am USA eastern time
Abg Faris: 2pm UK time
Family: 9pm Malaysia time

Dan biasala, bila ber'ooVoo ni banyak la pesanan dan cerita yang kita nak cakap dekat family or family nak cakap dekat kita. Its a normal thing to exchange stories. Kalau tak sure mati akal nak cakap apa.
Antara pesanan yang biasa akan dengar are:
a) Sihat?
b) Study ok?
c) Sembahyang jgn lupa
d) Buat apa weekend
Dan lain-lain soalan.

ooVoo ni sesuatu yang bagus sebenarnya. Di samping dapat mengeratkan silaturrahim, ooVoo ni merupakan satu medium untuk aku dengar pendapat atau pesanan dari keluarga. Yang mana akan membuat aku berfikir sikit kalau nak buat sesuatu tindakan. I'm pretty sure ramai yang duduk terutamanya yang jauh dari keluarga akan skype/ooVoo/yahoo chat family dia dan bertanya khabar antara satu sama lain. Yang jarang buat, I urge you to do so. Its fun you know. Tambah-tambah sekarang bukan zaman pakai surat lagi, internet pun bukan dial-up. Kalau facebook 24/7, takkan nak ada time dengan family berkira kan.

And happy 23rd birthday to Ahmad Faris Farhan bin Noor Azahan. InsyaAllah, kalau ada rezeki I'll be going to your place again next summer. To join mama and papa for your graduation.

Manchester, Summer 2011

Bye.
