follow me on twitter

a good friend asked me to set up an account, and several time when asked whether i own a Twitter account and obviously the answer is no, they asked me

'why?'

with this shocking-tone of that fact.

now let me ask, 'why not?'
btw just sharing; these are people i work with this year! they're cool ppl!

as promised, PORTUGAL

and this is..

A GUIDE FOR A BUDGET TRIP TO PORTUGAL!
(for those money saver students, especially in Europe )

based on my 5 days trip there last september..


firstly to visit Portugal, Malaysian doesn't need Visa and that is brilliant!

alright, for me, i always check the prices of accommodation in the cities that i want to visit first before i book the flight. and i suggest student like us to save money by staying at hostel, its not too bad and some even give free breakfast. and u might find new friends too! for me i visit a certain city to visit their attractions rather to stay in my room, so spending the least on accommodation makes sense for me. in Portugal i spent around 10 pounds for each night and that is really cheap! but Wait! DON'T BOOK your accommodation yet..i know it might be exciting with all those pictures on the websites..

but

you'll need a flight to get u there of course and as the title says, i would suggest u to check flights from either Ryanair or Easy jet. depends on the promotions, etc. i bought mine like 2weeks lebih sket before the departure date and it cost me around 60pounds (return ticket). inclusive everything like tax and online charges.

alright, now book the accommodation that u have searched for.

next is the transportation to airport, i suggest u to book it earlier as it will always be cheaper and there are ranges of transportation to choose, my favourite is Easybus! cost me like 10 pounds for two way journey.

for this one make sure you allocate few hours extra especially the return time from airport to city center, as there might be delays in flight arrival so u don't want to miss your bus back to city center after your tiring flight back from your destination.!

alrite after all that, it seem like you got everything right??
hmm..i suggest that u go and check on the public transport in the city that u are going and how are u going to move from a city to another. based on my trip i booked an express bus from porto to lisboa, it took me like 4hours and if not mistaken by train its 3hours. and it only cost 32euro return and the train was 60 euro return.

one thing that is great i think about Porto and Lisbon is its public transport within the city..i suggest u to buy the day travel card(something like oyster) but way cheaper compared to London and much more comfortable yet as efficient!

in Porto, a day travel card cost 5 euro and u can use the metro, bus, train, electric tram, tram, cable car. and to all zones. the same goes to Lisbon but the price is 4.70 euro if i'm not mistaken, but not more than 5 euro that is for sure.

so all together, based on my trip, i spent:
(p/s rough estimation, cz i could not really remember the details)

flight-60pounds
bus to airport-10 pounds
transportation within Portugal-50 pounds
accommodation-50pounds
foods-50pounds
etc n souvenirs-30pounds

TOTAL=250pounds

so what do u think?? was it a budget trip?? i think so..

p/s any questions? just leave a comment and pictures coming up soon...

heck!



if u use average marks of students to determine passing grade, there will always be a number of failure student. 

Unless everyone has the same mark.

i think its CRUEL and UNFAIR


i know its hard to get 100% pass but it doesn't mean you have to reserve failure 'seats' making failure likely compulsory every year.

"i can assure you at the end of this year there will be at least 2 or 3 of you who will not make it to next level" 

so much of being positive

p/s don't you agree 50 is a reasonable passing mark and used widely?

is it too early?

an amusing video i found on youtube, i'd like to share it with u guys..enjoy!





p/s the setting was in Durham, UK

overshadow


today, i was woken up by a knock on the door...' ahh biarla mesti yus' i mumbled to myself, lazily grabbed my cozy duvet covering my face..


finally after, i don't know for how long, i woke up then washed up and zuhur..again i mumbled to myself 'ahh another day, bile la nak balik uni' huhu


like always after a long holiday i will miss my place of study, not saying that i love to study, not even close to liking it(..to me study is a mean of living..)but life has always been much more organized there and i like that.


puasa dah 5 days in the winmer(winter+summer) Newcastle, it could be as sunny as summer but yet as chilly as winter.! and Alhamdulillah till today it went without any snitch.



this year we are fasting in the month of august.. which is kind of awkward for me..haha..well cz umur pun baru setahun jagung..so i cant recalled fasting in this month..well maybe cz i never did? or i was too young to remember.. my point here is that, i keep counting days to RAYA, something that i dont really fancy even in Malaysia but i look forward too.. 


but this year i think i will have the most quiet hari raya ever! well i deserve it cz i decided to stay..planning to celebrate it in London (sounds cool huh? or not?? NOT??) HAHA..


lastly i'd like to wish all of u readers, a blessed Ramadhan, i wish that we all going to be closer to Allah this year.


p/s don't u think Ramadhan has overshadowed Bulan kemerdekaan Malaysia?? just saying..
and guys am i being to personal?? feedback please..thanks!

NUFC vs PSV eindhoven


salam

frankly speaking i never been to any live sporting event, i mean the big ones.. of course ive been to school or district sporting event, but never to match between countries.. to cut it short i never been to a football match! not that i dont really bother about football but living in Malaysia somehow made me; not so into watching live football at the stadium. Lucky me coming to UK has given me the opportunity to buy cheaper tickets and while im here why not go watch some football matches..the vibe and crowd should be so much better compared to back home..hehehe

so right now im feeling a bit excited about tomorrow match between Newcastle United FC and PSV eindhoven. Although its only a friendly match, the tickets were nearly sold out! i can say that Newcastle 'ians are really in love with their local team and they must be really excited about next season of EPL as NUFC will be in the premier league! Well of course i will be supporting NUFC for tomorrow match..hehehe.. although im a big fan of Liverpool.


St James's Park Stadium Newcastle Upon Tyne

 -a friend told me that football will make a city alive, so i'm looking forward for tomorrow match to see whether the claim is true or not-

new place-n.e.w.c.a.s.t.l.e

hi guys!

so today i moved out from my college in Stockton-on-tees to Newcastle. Newcastle is about an hour away from Stockton-on-tees... i'm writing this post cz i have nothing to do and i don't have anything specific to write too, i will just write what ever comes to my mind!

OK..so just now i was reading my friend's blog coretan perantau long haffiz and i came across the issue of elimination of UPSR and PMR examinations. To be honest, i don't mind if MOE wants to eliminate PMR, however i think UPSR should be maintained. I don't really know whats the situation now in Malaysia, but seriously there's something wrong now. Recently JPA and MARA announced that they will stop sending student abroad and now in order to enter SBP, students have to sit for a specific paid-exam. so this leads to one conclusion, well it simply means that our government is running low on education fund. To be honest, i personally think that education is the most essential aspect in a society.. ok ok..lets not jump into conclusion straight away..the fees might be at a very minimal that it will not burden the students or the parents..(hopefully)..anyway i am trying to see this elimination as a positive change..well we'll been using UPSR and PMR for ages now.. i think it might be good for changes to take place..

..times keep moving and life keeps changing..

...................(gosh! my post tonight sounds so serious la).................

btw Newcastle is the home to the Newcastle United FC and this club will be in the coming season of EPL
and it is the biggest city in the North East of England..so its a change of air for me, from kg to bandar..=D

u might think its the best, b.u.t


May/June is the exam season for Alevel and to my juniors i wish u all the very best and of course i hope u all make the grades..

i know right now, everytime in your Doa and solat hajat, u'll be asking for 'FLY' 
well i know cz i've been in your shoe..right now FLY seems to be the most important thing or achievement...but are we sure its the BEST for us??

some might say, i'm talking crap or bolehlah kau dah lepas...but seriously...only ALLAH knows what is best for u..so what ever happen please be positive and just believe that its the best for u..in order for u to know its the best for u, is by, instead of praying solely on 'i want to fly' try changing it to ' i want the best for me, and i hope its fly' 

alhamdulillah, i realized this a couple months before the exams..i realized, who are we to know or to have definite believe that what we want and think the best for us is actually the best..only GOD has the bigger picture as he knows everything. thus i changed my prayer to, 'i want the best! 

so whatever your result might be later on, u know that, it is the best for u so with that u can walk through with confidence and as long as u have tried your best and sincerely doa, then  trust me the result u get is the best for u.

and in life we always want the best..!



of being a year older

i am so T.H.A.N.K.F.U.L to GOD for giving me the life i have now, 

the friends and family who loves and cares about me.

the health that allows me to live my life,

the time i used to see places,

the experience i gained,

and most of all

i.m.a.n and i.s.l.a.m

these are the B.E.S.T birthday gifts and i am so thankful because i still have them.





  results dah nak kluar!!!

i felt the same way

i miss someone so much…

last week i went to visit my late mother’s grave. it’s been more than 2 years since the last time i was there at her funeral… the graveyard looked so different, so neat and organized now. even the position of all the graves have changed.

there was no one there, and it was one hot afternoon. i was all alone standing there in the middle of the graveyard, not knowing which way to go. i could not remember where my mom’s grave was, so i just walked towards where my heart told me to. and then i came to a stop. i prayed to Allah so that He will show me the way to my mom’s grave. i was almost frustrated until when i turned my head around. there it was, my mom’s grave just behind me.

there was a cement stool next to it, so that i could sit on it comfortably. i could not hold myself. i just burst out crying. i miss her so much. no one but my God knows how much i miss my mom. there i was sitting next to her grave, now a doctor, the person she wanted me to be. and yet she is not here to cherish this moment with me.

time flies by so fast… more than 2 years have gone by. if only mama was still here, i will be the happiest person on Earth. i want to tell her so much about my stories- about everything. i just miss my mom so much…


re-blog.

EXAM FEVER

sorry guys for the 'silence'.. as u can see in my earlier post, i'll be having my final exam this 17th may..so been busy with studying..altho i have to say most of the time went not so productive..but at least now i am aware of many things...i was doing abit of entrepreneurship, browsing through my old notes and works, i noticed the dates..! 2009! i could not believe my 1st year will end in 2 weeks time!! gosh! time sure flies fast..!
