~~~25 Randomised Thingies~~~

Assalamualaikum wbt...

Im not very good at this, but I decide to honour Aida's tag.

~~~

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you! (:

1. Easiest way to kill me is to push me into a river... or even a swimming pool.(not the kiddy one, thats too pathetic). [Ill update this when I can actually swim.]

2. My best pictures are the candid ones. Or natural one. I just dont know how to smile in front of camera, so ull be getting either huge grin or very seroius face.

3. My current favourite food = O.R.A.N.G.E.S . "Bila orange bertemu Munirah, maka umurnya x panjang." Oranges here are nice, juicy, sweet and big, and my favorite ones are from Pakcik Olive, 3 for Euro 1.70. I know they are not that cheap, but i can gobble up all 3 in one go and will happily endure the diarrhoea later on.

4. Im falling in and out of love with my d70-kun. He's fantastic but very unpredictable. I wish I know how to handle him better. Its really depressing getting blurred pictures.

5. Nickname time!!! "Muni" is common, "Chunky" is from high school (after peanut butter), "Che' Ton" from primary school. IMAM ppl started spelling my name "Munni" which i like a lot, and some called me "Mun". I always introduce myself to Irish as "Moo-nie", with cow mooing sound. I really2 like people calling my name full, like Asrih and some boys from high-school.

6. I really2 wanted to sew a denim kimono right now. Too bad i dont have sewing machine.

7. I L.O.V.E anime!!! Currently following Kuroshitsuji. Abselute favourite is Toki Wo Kakeru Shoujo, Byousoku 5 cm (and most Makoto Shinkai's works), Fullmetal Alchemist. I accept almost all genres, fighting (Bleach), vampire (Vampire Knight), ninja (Basilisk but x Naruto fan maybe coz i dont follow it), romance (Honey n Clover is nice), modern (Dennou Coil is fantastic!!), whateverness ( FLCL is amazing, I really2 love the art), or cute (Chi's Sweet Home).

8. I wanna have a close-friends-only Japanese themed wedding reception later. if you think you are gonna be invited, hehe... start looking for a costume right now, hahaha!

9. My dream house includes a cosy library (Im collecting books) , a studio for my "art-attacks", a music room, a rememberance room where all my sentimental junk goes... Abah said Im gonna need a huge house. (add a built in boling alley too)

10. I like tea and coffee black... I cant stand them mixed with milk/creamer. But plain milk is my favourite too. Just dont mix them. (Always have to be polite and just drink if I become a guest.)

11. Im not a social butterfly. I dont usually talk unless talked too. So, please start the conversation. i always look severely unfriendly, but once I cracked few jokes, its a good start.

12. I regretted registering "Munirah" as my middle name in UCD because then my first name is just Shahidatul (as appearing on teacher's list), and its kinda hard for people to pronounce it. If I say Im Munira... they cant find it on the list.

13. One of heavens on earth for me is library, or bookstores. I went to bookstores even in Germany and Paris... even if i cant understand. Books are really nice, and the best moment is writing your name on the newly bought book. Oh~~~ (got a huge book of Sherlock Holmes stories from start to finish, bounded limited edition only 4000 in the world!! and mine is number 0888, nice kn?)

14. I guess one of the effect of having my second name (Witness) as a name is I witnessed a lot of things happening to my friends... not directly on me. But they all give me big impact and loads of things to ponder.

15. I love love love video editing and picture editing even though Im not that good and I dont have that much time. I use Adobe Photoshop (My first program was Corel Draw)... and Sony Vegas right now. Im aching to use Adobe After Effect but I dont think my ol lappy can handle it. I wish to learn Adobe Illustrator to make some vector and line art. Perhaps later.

16. I was wondering how my life will be if i choose art instead of medicine. I always have this dillemma about it. But I guess, where Im now is the best, and maybe the interest and some gift was given so I can do more than being an ordinary doctor. Im gonna figure out something extraordinary to do with my life.

17. I dont know what to answer if people ask "Awk org mana?", as in negeri ape. Coz Im born in Pahang, raised in Kedah, now moved to Selangor n stay there, and spend 5 years schooling in Pahang, but still... I acquired the element off all those states but dont really know where i belong. So I usually say Im a Malaysian or "I live in ---".

18. I really2 love cats but he's kinda, "allergic" to them. Cats are cute! And best part is their paw. Oh, Im gonna dedicate "Kuroneko no Tango" to all cats in the world!

19. I love to coin terms, and love it even better when people use them. For example "bottomless stomach", "Jalan Red Riding Hood" (a path in UCD) , "kuda kepang"(used in anger).

20. Dont wear wristwatch but need to start soon, coz in clinical years we need to count pulse la plak.... who wanna sponsor my watch? Please~~~

21. Romantic vs practical? Hopeless romantic. So, between a hallmark card and a some crappy poem at the back of paper napkin? definitely crappy poem, hahaha.

22. Loves blood very very much. I used to stare at my own wounds (eg papercut, falling wounds) and observe the blood flow or dry or clot. And blood red is really2 beautiful. But no, i wont bleed you death for my pleasure.

23. My handwriting is a disaster. I cant even read them sometimes. (ke most of the time???)

24. Stairs, particularly spiralling, uneven or misshapen and tall like in batu caves, is not my favorite.

25. Im a lazy lazy medical student. Slap me into reality...

Back to reading neurological examinations!

~~~25 Stars That I Noticed Recently~~~

Assalamualaikum wbt...

I've been noticing this 25 things about you tag going on facebook recently, and its very interesting to get to know my fellow friends. I wasn't tagged, but I just like the spirit. So I'm doing mine, as a single drop of water in a barren land (refering to my blog) ... coz i havent been posting anything useful for a while.

------------------------------

If Im a moon (Im Mun alraito!), then Ive been revolving for quite a while. I may fall to earth soon, or engulfed by the sun, but the future is only on the "hands" of The Almighty. To reflect the brilliant light from the sun is my task, but to be floating in this wonderful world, surrounded by stars... I wondered how many stars I have been ignoring, due to sheer huge number of them. But the stars... they are there, shining. Rahmatan lil alamin...

So these are the stars that caugh my attention recently. I hope me pointing will make them shine on you too!

1. Trust Allah fully on His plans for you. Coz He knew the best, and who are we? Maybe you detest something, but He know its the best for you.

2. Have a big heart. Lower your ego. Have a heart big enough to be adviced by your fellow sisters/brothers. And have a heart big enough to give advices because you love your sisters/brothers.

3. Do Zikrullah a lot. One type is the "chanting type". The other is simply remembering Allah in all things that we do. This will constantly save us from any danger of sins. ie. ur waking up and remembers Allah... surely this will effect your decisions of whether you want to skip school or not. Allah ask yourself, will He approve this actions?

4. Judgements of a mortal definitely and utterly means nothing compared to judgements of Allah. For that only His standards should prevails. Cleanse your hearts from bad-thoughts towards others.

5. We always let time flies and regret things we have not done. Time.

6. Allah tests you because He loves you. Turn back to Him. Wept and crumble only in front of Him.

7. Walk through Allah's test with increased iman, and hikmah, and His redha, not with accumulating sins.

8. Muhasabah.

9. Dont judge people by their age or seniority. I have learned a lot from my juniors, and i respected them.

10. Pray. For our brothers and sisters, for your family, for your troubled friends, for yourself... for everyone you care.

11. Back to no 1 actually, me and my friends have realised so many events, that was unexplained (hikmah wise) and unbearable.... was actually arranged in a way that is very purposeful. Only He knows.

12. Dont make decisions when ur drunk or intoxicated... in love, in wrath, so-on.

13. Mad people say stupid things. Both type of mad. (wrath and insanity). I guess thats why the share the name. Thats why we have hadith to ask us to cool down when we are angry, and hadith forbiding us from getting mad.

14. Be confident and trust yourself. Ive seen this star again and again... hard to digest, haha...

15. Love is a cold type of flame. It entice you with its beauty, when you're inside you are engulfed. Be warned, that without guidance, it can burn you someday in the fire that we all fear. To exercise cautions.

16. Never take "collateral friends"... meaning, become friends just because of someone else, not because of the person itself. So when you need to, be a true friend.

17. An enemy's enemy is not necessary our ally.

18. Check your niat all the time.

19. You might be selfish. Check yourself.

20. Every little helps. That's Tesco's tagline. (every penny you spend... will help who? fill in the blanks.) By yeah, even the smallest deed, even if we know wont "change the world"...will change the world!!! seriously! (i noe this is very complicated, try to understand me.)

21. Be grateful for everything. Be grateful for the nice things, be grateful for all the hardships. be thankful you are hurt. be thankful you are allowed to be thankful. (just imagine we are in those ungrateful categories, nauzubillah!)

22. Being contented is one of the way to be thankful.

23. Your parents or your seniors or just a very concerned friends may sounds nagging... but usually they stops you from being stupid most of the time.

24. Your friend is a reflection of yourself...your spouse too. (He/she is your best friend!)

25. Stars are too many to count. You may not realise each and every one of them. But verily... they are there to guide you, to colour your nights and days (they are there but you cant see em!)... Look out tonight for your very own stars. i suggest you find them before you sleep. (counting them can help your insomnia too!)

getting passing no 10 was tough. But after that I think that I cant stop! So maybe I might do this again. Hahahaha!!!!!
