take-away midterm
|
 |
|
ni la subjek nya
|
|
|
|
haha..i know that some of you just could not
believe that we do have those take away exam. walla..know what, this is what we do.
i know its sound peculiar, but we do have odd class schedules too.
class that start at 730am?normal. i guess it only apply to us in engineering la kot..
they reasoned that after subuh prayer you should not sleep and must get ready to class.
thus, not able to come for class at 730am is not tolerated as again it reasoned that
subuh is around 6am.then why u could not come? don't you pray?
exam also is done at the most unexpected time. normal la kot..tu grab any free time that
can tolerate everyone in the class. class on 1st Jan, most public holiday etc. nasibla.
currently i'm doing another take away midterm paper. this one is rather philosophical
and not entirely engineering. kinda related though - it covers the ethical field of professional
profession and it look from both islamic and west perspective. hoho..hopefully
i can score well in the subject, we got er..about 24hrs to finish this 3-questions paper.
hah, amir..percaye la. uia mmg macam ni..

~the story of my beloved NesCafe family~
|
|
this is my last semester here in IIUM doing my engineering undergrad.
yeah basically, its been a long time. seems like too long as well. 6 years..
2 at matric pj and now the last 4 yrs in main campus.uh..it IS loong!
(time seems to passed by more quickly now uh??!)
i join the nescafe as part timer when i was in 2nd year, 2 semester..
i guess..i can't really recall when exactly. but i'm the 2nd malaysian to
join this enterprenuership program handled by Waqf Endownment of UIA.
(the 1st is the one that introduce me) yeah, actually this program is to help the international student (not local like me) to gain insight of the campus environment
aside to help some of them financially. (although the salary was not that much i can say..).
but my motive of joining is not only to gain pocket money, its far more important, i guess.
i want to see, meet, learn about new people n cultures, and improve my communication skills.
by way it goes, yes i'm among the earliest from "the other side of the world"
(that what they used to describe we people from engineering dept) that join and
work here. we ARE far apart from this NesCafe Cafe location. situated near
the library, it took about 15 min walking (very quickly i told you) distance from my
kuliyyah. senang ckp, this nescafe is not where engine ppl are used to be seems
hanging around a lot. hehe..jauh la nak jln..ingat tak letih ke...
if i try to write down everything here, it won't be photo-blogging anymore.
its more like a boring journal to you. (but i don't care) and i was happy to
recall all those beautiful moments i spent here working n learning about people and
everything around. i remember being so exhausted that i can't even stand up loong enough.
that was far too hectic time for me back then. (*_*)
work during classes, had to rush to catch my lecture time (of course at the
engineering dept, the other side of the world) and try my best not to be late
(nnt lecturer kunci pintu), then went to my archery training from 5 to 7pm where
again i had to walk about 20 min to get to the field with all those heavy equipments,
and sometime if my shift is at night, i work 10-12am. the closing time is the hardest at cafe.
we had to wash n clean every drink container, then pasang balik semua tu, prepare the
freeze for the next morning opening, check the stocks, send the garbages to
the big dustbin at the back of library building (huhu..berat tu.mujur mlm shift nya 3
org.kalo tak..nangis la tepi tong sampah), not to forget kena lap2 meja..etc etc..
hewl...penat..! but how i would missed all these...
we always have a good time - laughing, joking,gossiping, sharing stupids n important info,
the latest update of everyone, who-doing-what, and yes we do shed tears together too..
esp during the disastrous Tsunami. some of us had difficult time during those shocked
catastrophe. some are grieving losing dear family members, and close friends, some even
left suddenly alone, and many are simply shaken trying to cope with the blow. i remember hearing and witnessing many emotive situations, even my boss cried. his wife (at the moment
was pregnant with their first child) and she was at sri lanka when the tragedy happened.
god bless, his family is safe and now they are happy with their hansome son, named Ammar.
nescafe conducted fund collection - people come and donate whatever they can
afford to give - dry food, clothes, money, consoling words, and du'a.. that times,
we can really see the true meaning of brotherhood and ukhuwah in islam..masya Allah..
as the nationality of this unique family is so diverse, we hav staff from most part of the
world. they are from bangladesh, sri lanka, indonesia, jakarta, acheh, china, pakistan, myanmar, thailand, india, nigeria, somalia, iraq, philippine, and some other country that i might left out. aye~ i collect bits here and there their cultures and traditions, many like
to share traditional foods esp after long semester break. and they love our food as well.
we local like to introduce snacks and delicacies to them and they would go like, " ooh..nice..but very spicy.." " uh..what? kerepok? oh..keropok.." etc etc.. i also had chance
to taste the variety of their foods. some are just too sweet, some er..too peculiar to my
tongue, and some are just too good, i simply love them.
once, during hari raya..that is the best time to see many in colourful customs dresses. men
and women alike. and we never laugh at each other (hehe..sikit2 la..) although some just
look er..attractive. we are simply proud to share our differences.. (*_*)
languages..yes, that is another beautiful character of this distinctive family. we had English
as our common language, but i also had chances to learn and pick up some simple phrases
of their language. it is from this cafe i learn to talk a good, although still not very
fluent indon (yeah, its not that much difficult ..quite similar to Bahasa), myanmar
(erm..tak byk), and we hear Sri Lanka slang a lot. but it far complicated even to catch
what they are saying.arabic language, simple thai slang, and others as such australian
slang.. (they hav er..bad English accent - always gave me hard time to understand
what they order.. "teaywifmilks" tak phm? tu maknanya 'tea-with-milk or simply
nescafe.. hahaha..) and again, they - customer as well as staff, love to speak
Bahasa with me.
hehe.. "sayya mao order itu tey tahrik, ada ka? " " terrima kashih. jhumpa laggi.."
(hm..kira pass la bahasa depa ni..)
currently i only manage to work once a week, not like before up to 8hrs per week..
i had to concentrate and give full commitment finishing my final year project. ha, bulan lepas my salary was just RM6.00..! percaye la. tapi tak sedih pun. standard la. wages are
per-working-hour. we got too many holidays. kena plak hari yg aku keje.. hehe..
lastly, after too much of talking, let me draw out some conclusions that i got being one
of the NesCafe Family member:
My boss are very caring, we got good management teams. but like to conduct gotong-royong and meeting. huhu. .
got chances go holiday fully sponsored by Cafe. based on the budget after the
profit-sharing. go to pangkor, mines, picnics, penang, er..latest, plan to tioman.
lots of freebies of Nescafe - t-shirt, cap, pens, etc etc
the place where i learn the most about people, and place i can also hang out..bila tension
belajar or byk problem..
tmpat yg aku blaja bercakap omputih ngan konfidennya, salah pun takde org gelak..
the place i found many good frens. where i can cry and laugh, and share like a real
family do.
tmpat yg akan aku rindu bila aku dh abes blaja..tak lama je lagi.. waaaa..
