Ignite Entrepreneurship Camp by V Creator

Image
Alhamdulillah, I got a very amazing opportunity to participate in Ignite Entrepreneurship Camp on 6 to 8 December, as a part of me entering the V Creator Startup Pitch Competition. (I know, I updated a bit late. I was tired, okay? 😅) Honestly, growing with my parents who both loves running business so much, for more than 20 years, while also helping them with their business as long as I can remember, with them currently achieving stable income and satisfying financial freedom (from as much as I can perceive), I can safely say that, I actually don’t like business. Thus, it actually never cross my mind to be involved in entrepreneurship. Even with growing up with my parents who definitely guarantee their full support. Even after countless efforts of schools trying to instill entrepreneurship spirit in their students. Heck, even until I go into university, where university students in Malaysia are highly, highly, highly encouraged to be involved in entrepreneurship. For r

I Won't Give Up on Myself - Live Performance

Image
Today there was a spoken word competition & I decided to participate by performing a rap. Thank God, for this competition, I actually have time to properly prepare & practiced. So I thought I would not be that nervous on that day as I am quite decently prepared. I mean, got the music on, memorized the lyrics, right? Well, not until I actually hold the microphone, suddenly my whole body is literally shaking. Really out of the blue! It also made my voice sounds more nervous than ever. But I got lucky as I sensed that & immediately I made my voice intentionally like want-to-cry voice. So... to those who were watching who really thought I was gonna cry, or at least just think I'm purposely appearing to be sad... sorry! I was nervous, that's it lol 😂 Luckily the vibration mode only lasted for 30 seconds or so. I was able to recollect myself back, and focus on the performance. Practice really helps in performances. I can safely say that this is better than m

“Melayu malas nak bekerja/berniaga, sebab tu Cina kaya.”

Image
Dalam penulisan yang lepas, aku cuba membanteras stereotaip “Melayu pemalas” dengan menunjukkan bahawa pentingnya juga kita mencari atau mencipta hiburan dalam pekerjaan kita, dan hal ini tidak semestinya menunjukkan bahawa seseorang itu pemalas. Namun, sekali lagi, aku sangat tertarik untuk menulis lagi berkenaan kata-kata tipikal di Malaysia ini, “Melayu malas nak bekerja/berniaga, sebab tu Cina kaya.” Kenyataan ini nampak terlalu mudah untuk dipercayai. Tetapi, kalau kita cuba mencari, sememangnya perusahaan mereka yang berbangsa Cina itu lebih mendominasi ekonomi Malaysia. Dan mereka yang berbangsa Melayu pula seperti mendominasi lorong-lorong kecil sahaja. Jadi, betul ke Melayu pemalas & Cina kaya? Ini ialah apa yang aku percaya; disebabkan oleh faktor budaya, bangsa Melayu & bangsa Cina terlibat dalam jenis perniagaan yang berbeza. Aku dah terang juga dalam penulisan yang lepas. Tapi tak apa, aku akan tulis lagi. Bangsa Melayu lebih banyak terlibat de

Orang Melayu Pandai Berseronok dalam Bekerja

Image
“Melayu pemalas!” Satu ungkapan yang asasnya entah dari mana, namun tidak asing lagi bagi kita rakyat Malaysia. Ada penulisan yang sebelum ini, aku andaikan bahawa stereotaip ini datang daripada terwujudnya hak-hak istimewa orang Melayu hasil daripada perlembagaan yang dibentuk selepas zaman merdeka. Tapi entahlah. Itu hanya andaian aku sahaja. Namun, baru-baru ini, aku terfikir lagi satu hal yang mungkin menyumbang kepada pengukuhan stereotaip ini. Awas! Aku tak kata itu sebabnya, aku cuma nak khabarkan yang hal semasa yang berlaku ini mungkin menyumbang kepada lebih percayanya orang kepada stereotaip ini, yang mungkin tiada kebenarannya pun. Apakah hal itu? Orang Melayu nampak sambil lewa buat kerja. “Buat kerja sambil lewa tu, pemalas la kan?” Tak. Baca balik ayat tu betul-betul. Orang Melayu nampak sambil lewa buat kerja. Kenapa nampak seakan-akan sambil lewa? Kerana mereka sentiasa ada ruang untuk berhibur dalam pekerjaan mereka. Cuba tengok contoh-c

Why currently I don't post that often.

Image
It’s my final year already in the university & I’ve decided to take responsibilities on more things; events, logistics, etc. Not even that much, but still a significant increase for me. It’s completely the opposite of what students in university usually do; they usually take on as much responsibilities as possible in their first year, then begin to gradually slow down as years go by. But that’s okay for me. I don’t regret it, because I’ve spent the last 2 years, researching & doing what I really know I love to do, studying & content producing. As for studying, I really like the university life. I mean, I like going to lectures, paying attention in class, and even taking exams. Yup, you heard me right; I like taking exams. Genuinely. And as for content producing, I like the feeling of hitting the ‘publish’ button. Then, slowly seeing the numbers of view & likes going up & up. My views are not that high in the first place, but what gets me ‘high’, is imagining

Personal Growth & Islam

I talked in a video that personal growth, is what freed me from my depressive & anxiety symptoms. But I left something out though; my belief as a Muslim. Let’s explore; what does Islam says about personal growth?

Celebrating Autism Awareness Through Fashion by KK Fashion Week

Image
Alhamdulillah, on 14 September 2019 (yesterday), I was given the chance to be the emcee of the event of Celebrating Autism Awareness Through Fashion, at Wisma Tun Fuad Stephens, Kota Kinabalu. That event for surely has broaden my understanding about autism. I admit, it has been 3 years already of me studying child & family psychology, and I still struggle to grasp the basics of what autism actually is.  “Autism is a neuro-developmental disorder ( not neuro-cognitive!) that manifests itself in the following symptoms; saying things over & over (echolalia) , flapping hands, obsess with certain things, blah blah blah…” Yeah, I know that. 3 years of studying this; I already know this. But why? Why they are flapping their hands? Why they are saying things over & over? Why they are obsessed with certain things? I initially want to start by listing points of what I learned from this event. You know, like how I usually write about events that I’ve gone through. But,

5 Pengajaran Berharga daripada BoBoiBoy The Movie 2

Image
Dah berminggu-minggu & demam BoBoiBoy masih melanda… Aku memang dah lama tengok BoBoiBoy, memang sejak 2011 lagi pun. Tanpa ragu aku boleh katakan, memang ini kartun kegemaran aku. Dan aku akui, kita semua suka & terhibur dengan benda yang berbeza-beza. Aku mungkin ada pendapat aku sendiri terhadap apa yang kau suka, tapi aku hormat dengan apa-apa hiburan kegemaran kau yang kau suka. Tapi, satu benda yang aku selalu dengar pasal orang yang minat kartun ni, selalu dibandingkan dengan budak-budak. Biarlah aku beritahu hakikat sebenar; banyak je kartun yang kau terlepas pandang yang memberi pengajaran yang sangat, sangat, sangat bermakna. Mungkin kau jenis yang kena tengok aksi kasar, berdarah sana sini, berlawan sana sini, baru kau nak serap masuk pengajaran cerita tu. Suka hati kau la. Tapi, bagi kami yang tak memerlukan semua tu, kartun sahaja sudah cukup bukan sahaja untuk menghiburkan, malah juga menyegarkan hati & jiwa. Dan pada hari ini, aku nak kongsi 5 peng

Malaysian React to Englishmen Trying Durian For The First Time!

Today I would like to try something new by realizing my wish to make a reaction video! Especially since I love watching foreigners reacting to Malaysian stuff, why not react to that?

"Jangan Mendekati Zina!"

Image
Dalam penulisan yang sebelum ini, aku ada tulis bahawa menjaga ikhtilat itu, tidak semestinya bermaksud mengasingkan lelaki & perempuan.  Hal ini kerana, apabila kita terlalu fokus pada mengasingkan lelaki & perempuan, interaksi antara kedua-duanya akan terlalu terbatas. Tak ada batas tak elok, terlalu berbatas pun tak elok! Kejayaan dalam Islam ini dibina oleh lelaki-lelaki & perempuan-perempuan yang berjaya, yang bekerja bersama-sama, dengan berkesan. Hukum ikhtilat ada, bukan untuk memisahkan mereka, tetapi untuk mengatur mereka. Islam tak ajar pengasingan, tetapi Islam mengajar untuk berinteraksi dengan abad, hikmah & keberkesanan. Maka, mungkin mereka yang membaca artikel yang lepas, akan bertanya: "Jadi, macam mana cara nak jaga ikhtilat sebenarnya, kalau bukan dengan pengasingan lelaki & perempuan?" oleh kerana cara pengasingan inilah cara yang paling popular apabila kita bercakap mengenai mencegah ikhtilat. Baik, mari kita berbicar
