Next up: MCN 2013

One of the activities that takes up most of my time apart from school:

University of New Brunswick Malaysian Students Society (MSS) proudly presents Malaysian Cultural Night 2013.

There will be performances such as zapin, silat, tarian cina, joget kurik kundi and dikir barat. I will be performing for both kurik kundi and dikir. Fun! Meals range from sweet and savoury deserts to scrumptious nasi berlauk. I am given the trust to become head of decoration for this year's MCN so I hope everyone will enjoy the exhibition setup and the kampong ambience that I wish to recreate. 

11 days left.

Of Time

Time - the most valuable. It teaches us that in time everything will make perfect sense. Of why events are coordinated the way they are. In time you will realize that what is there today, may not be there tomorrow. You'd wish you can turn back time, but time is powerful and it has no mercy. Yet we still continue to take everything, especially those that matter to us, for granted.

Take some time to realize what you have for it will not always be there the next time. A friendly reminder for myself and my readers. inshaAllah.

Yellow wristband

[...Hectic month I must say]

Thank you for all the donations and support. It means a lot to me and definitely to the cancer society. The RFL event will kick off this Saturday at 7pm and ends at 7am the next morning. I'm excited :)

In support of the event and Lance Armstrong's Livestrong foundation to help cancer survivors, we got ourselves the yellow wristband to be worn along with our costume - of Malaysian flag colours.

I don't usually do hashtags outside Twitter (what's the purpose?) but this time it just seems right.

The uncertain

Another cliche entry but no less important.

Why does one over worry about what's to come? The future is unbeknownst to all. Plan for the best at the present time. Execute it with full effort, with the belief that God will guide your way through. And then tawakal. If in the future things don't go the way you wanted them to, at least, you have nothing to regret for. Yes we all get sad when things don't turn out well but that's life lah. Because you knew that was what you wanted and you tried your best. The common mistake that we all do is that we back off too easily. We are too risk averse. We fear too much about the uncertain. A wise friend of mine told me that if you hold on to the certain, the immortal,  the One, you will never worry. You will know when the things you wanted don't happen, after trying your best, that means it's just not meant for you bro. There's an alternative plan for you bro. The key is: trying your best & have faith. Don't go all fate blaming when you just sit, wait, do sikit-sikit aje while expecting for a miracle. Ain't gonna happen bro.

Bro. Just my two cents.
