WRITING?? 

What is writing? 

A source from Wikipedia says that “writing is a medium of human communication with the use of symbols in certain languages”.

Literally, the word is write defined by Oxford dictionary as “marks on surface”.

Now, is write or writing a word of noun or verb? Writing can be a verb, and can also be a noun depending on the context it is being used. Write is a noun and can be a verb when being put into use with another prepositions.

Wahhhh ... this is a very serious entry indeed ... 

We (some colleagues and me) were discussing about writing this afternoon. One friend of mine mentioned that she loves writing because the father was a writer, thus, she wrote enormous amount of academic articles. When I reflected my self, yes, I like to write too ... but jokingly i said i like to write blog, because it frees my mind. This is very true. The truth nothing but the truth. When writing a blog, i wrote out my thoughts and feelings. I freed my mind. I do not need of plagiarism or anything of such. But, a good thing of being an academician is I make it a habit to double check my entry if I am writing facts, like I did today. And I will also quote my source of the content to proof its legitimacy.

============

There are academic writings and non-academic writings. 

For academic writings, it is an act of sharing factual information, sharing new knowledge that can be empirically or scientifically justifiable. Academic writing will broaden the world of body of knowledge with this new information. These information will set a new ventures of knowledge.


For non-academic writings : it may meant to provide the reader with an informal knowledge or information. It may also meant to entertain it’s reader with its’ fictitious and imaginary story; which sometimes may contain certain messages.


===========

Enough with this blabbering .... one thing for sure, I missed writing.

My love for readings made me like to write. During my school days, I used to write short stories. A fiction that is entertaining, and my friends take turns to read it. Just where is that girl now??? Who loves to read and write???

I really hope to be able to find that person in me again.


Happy reading ......

Asrama K.Ngah at MITST Alam Impian

Assalamualaikum. Asrama? Biasalah. Ramai yang pergi asrama. Nothing exciting about asrama. When I was a child, I used to read the story books. Series of them. We have the Famous Five, Secret Seven, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and one of my favorite is the Malory Towers. Malory Towers tells a story about life in a boarding school. It is also a reason for me wanted to go to a hostel. It motivates me. I always thought that all hostels are as envisioned by the writer. Luxury place to stay with lots of friends around. Full of activities and adventure. But...well.... story books are mostly fictitious. It was written to draw readers into purchasing it. My hostel was far worst that what I imagined. But there is where I grew up - my teenage life. Sending K.Ngah aka. Sabrina to her hostel last Sunday, brought back the Malory Towers into me. The dorm was luxurios. Single bedded. Six in a room. Large closet. Plenty of storage space (drawers attached to the bottom of the bed). And a study

Antara Anyer dan Jakarta

"Antara Anyer dan Jakarta" was a title of a song sang by Sheila Majid back in 80s. I tried to find the meaning of "Anyer" using the Google translate but to no avail. What about the song? Nothing. It's just because I just came back from Jakarta for a conference trip cum SHOPPING trip. I was accompanied by Suzana Ahmad and Norizan. Day 1: ====== Our journey began on 12th December. At approximately 5am, the driver reached my house. Izan is already there, in a short while Suzana arrived. We headed to KLIA. The check-in was a winding queue. After checking-in it leaves us with barely enough time for fajr prayer. At 9am, the tree stooges sat foot on the Indonesia land. We make a quick visit to the money changer and proceed for a cab. We have planned for the trip carefully and agreed to travel light as we will not be checking-in to the hotel upon arrival as the checking in time is only at 3pm. Instead, we headed towards our first destination, TANAH ABANG. It is r

Doa ketika ternampak orang sakit dan mohon terhindar darinya.

Assalamualaikum, Ahad malam Isnin. Malam yang sedih sayu. Biasanya hari Ahad, adalah hari ziarah anak-anak atau hari menghantar anak-anak balik ke asrama. Upon doing that, when entering the home, I can feel the emptiness. The quiet house, no greetings, no laughters. And due to that, I will make my way to the surau, to gather bits of pearl of knowledge. "O Allah, forgive me if the reason for my being in Your masjid is wrong Forgive me, Ya Allah. But truthfully, its too quiet at home, and to me, being in the masjid is more meaningful rather than locked in the empty house alone. Forgive me Ya Allah." And tonight, it was Ustaz Firdaus. Sharing on Feqah. And one thing that I really think fruitful to share is this piece of doa.  ‘Alhamdulillah hillazi aafani mim mabtalaka bihi wa fadhalaani ala kaseerim mimman khalaqa tafdheela.” The Prophet said: “If somebody recites this dua while he saw someone else in some fatigue or tensions, he would not be involved in t
