Contribution

Salam semua,

Sumbangan, pemberian, sedekah atau contributions boleh dibuat atau dilakukan dengan berbagai cara.. Besar atau kecil.. Selalu atau kekadang.. Terang-terangan atau tersembunyi.. Yang penting ialah iklas kerana Allah.. Pemberian walaupun sedikit tetap akan mendapat ganjaran yang besar dari Allah seperti dalam firmannya Surah Al-Zalzalah ayat 7 yang tafsirannya lebih kurang;

"Maka sesiapa yang berbuat kebajikan seberat Dzarrah, nescaya akan dilihatnya (dalam surat amalannya.)"


Oleh itu jika ada dikalangan kita yang memberi hadiah atau sedekah walaupun nilainya tak seberapa atau cuma sedikit janganlah dihina atau dicaci. Islam melarang kita berbuat demikian seperti yang di riwayatkan daripada Abu Hurairah Radhialalhu 'anhu, bahawa Nabi S.A.W bersabda yang maksudnya lebih kurang;

Wahai perempuan-perempuan Islam, janganlah kamu menghina seorang jiran (yang menghadiahkan) kepada jirannya walaupun hanya dengan kuku kambing (walau hanya sesuatu yang sedikit). - Hadis riwayat Muslim


It doesn't matter to whom it is for.. to family members, friends, colleagues and just anyone.. Its the thought that counts the most..

Seperti sabda Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam yang lebih kurang maksudnya:

"Sedekah kepada orang miskin itu mendapat satu pahala sedekah, dan sedekah kepada saudara mara itu mendapat dua pahala iaitu pahala sedekah dan pahala menyambung silaturrahim.” -Hadis riwayat al-Hakim


Therefore we should not take for granted the things that was given or taught to us.. money, material stuff, knowledge atau apa-apa saja yang sebanding dengannya.. Thus i'm thankful for the english lessons that you shared with me such as: paradox, tantrum and ambigous.. n many more actually..

Talking about contributions, all the pictures here are taken by ermm Hjh Rock saja ah? hehe.. jgn marah.. and i hope she gave me the pictures secara iklas .. if nda iklas den ambil tia balik, tapi if buruk siku saya tidak akan bertanggung jawab.. :)


Again the post is divided into 3.. the 1st is semasa pemeriksaan kesihatan.. 2nd is making of banner bowling and the last is Doa Selamat/Kesyukuran for ADN and Hjh Rock..


For the Waist Hip Ratio (WHR), mesti suka pinggul dan pinggang.. hehe.. kalau nda cukup measuring tape ada lagi spare dalam laci...


Even the girls are trying to measure their WHR.. Sukat jangan tak sukat..


According to the leaflet, for a healthy WHR you must be less than 1.0 for the guys and less than 0.8 for the ladies.. The leaflet also show how to measure our Body Mass Index (BMI), if your underweight, healthy,a lil' over weight or obese.. And after measuring my BMI, i personally think the leaflet is not 162% accurate!!!


Pusat Promosi Kesihatan ada juga memberi secara percuma buku panduan tentang permakanan yang sehat.


So we waste no time to read the book and maybe just maybe we would eat healthy foods.. and no snacks or junk food... Coz snacks is not a healthy diet and could make you cough too.. Jadi pesanan kepada yang lain supaya banyakkan makan sayur-sayuran... :)





The 2nd part will now start.. below u can see the how we made the banner sendiri... it was a new experience for some..

Maha guru showing how its done... Cuba liat cara mengaler maskot ah.. Kalau nya orang kitani tue - baru melukis setampik tangan, kalau dua tangan... lagi tah mengancam kali..


The apprentice doing a lil touch up on the wordings...


Again Sifu showing how to paint a bowling ball...


Another apprentice trying to do a lil touch up... tapikan... he thinks he's helping but infact he's making it worst! hehe..


Desas desus dan khabar berita yang kononnya terdapat seniman yang pandai lagi mahir dalam seni lukis, maka ramailah pengunjung dari dekat mahupun jauh untuk menyaksikan sendiri dengan lebih dekat kesahihan berita itu.. jangan emosi kawan-kawan..


Diantara warga penaksiran yang sam-sama memberi sokongan moral kepada sukarelawan yang menawarkan khidmat


Warga penaksiran yang lain tidak putus-putus menyaksikan dan memberi sokongan moral kepada sukarelawan untuk memberikan mutu kerja yang bermutu antarabangsa..


Kerjaya 'screen printing' memerlukan penelitian dan konsentrasi yang amat tinggi sehingga sebarang gangguan dan rintangan perlulah dihiraukan..


Sifu memerhati kerja apprentice beliau dengat lebih dekat agar hasilnya menepati kualiti ISO antarabangsa.. and he doesnt look too happy with his work..


Salah seorang protege sedang membuat kerja dengan penuh dedikasi..


Ini dia sukarelawan import export kami.. Import dari luar negara dan akan diexport lagi dalam masa yang singkat.. hehe..


Salah seorang mandor sedang mengarahkan perkerjanya supaya berkerja dengan lebih tekun dan cepat.. Words on the street is that he wears NEW cloths everyday...


Tidak berpuas hati dengan hasil tangan pekerja beliau, beliau sendiri harus 'membersihkan' kerja-kerja yang kurang sempurna..


Teknik lukisan yang memerlukan latihan bertahun-tahun dari berbagai tempat untuk memperolehi banyak pengalaman dalam bidang seni lukis..


The end product that 'I' did by myself.. hehe.. Ribuan terima kasih kepada mereka-mereka yang sama-sama membantu menghasilkan banner ini.. Could not have done it without your cooperation.. Dont worry.. ada kana belanja makan tue nanti..


3rd Part - Majlis membaca Doa bagi ADN yang berpindah tempat dan Hjh Rock yang tamat menjalani kursus intensif selama sebulan..









Dan akhir kata.. Kan?! ada kan kana belanja makan... hehe..

Guilin Trip

Salam semua..

Gambar, pictures, photos, pix or pics atau apa saja istilah yang diguna pakai oleh pembaca ketika ini.. semua gambar cuba memberi maksud gambaran yang terbaik.. baik dari segi kualiti gambar mahupun teknik pengambaran... juru-juru foto cuba memberikan yang terbaik mengunakan lensa yang terbaik ataupun yang sedia ada.. a beautiful picture could be taken by a good quality camera.. but i believe a good cameraman could take a good picture with ease using any standard camera.. altho another reason why a picture looks good is because of the 'model' or person the picture is taken.. ialah mun fotogenik.. lawa jua kn tue? jgn saja fotoalergik.. hehe.. no matter what camera, the picture wont be as good as the 'model'.. hehe...

Some people that is close to me is good at taking pictures, some are good at being the 'models', even have a model of the year picture :p (yeah.. you know wat i mean kn? hehe..) so it's kinda intimidating... because im fotoalergik the only option left is to try and take a good picture.. sighs..

Below is some pictures i took during the 4th WAVO in Guilin, China. The place is kinda cool and windy. Lots of interesting and beautiful places to visit.. Many places to rest and enjoy the scenary.

I divide the pictures into three categories... Pictures taken from the hotel, pictures taken around guilin during day time and lastly during the night time.. and im gona change the comments from before the picture to after the pictures...

I'm not quite sure the reasons behind this pix, but i think i was trying to show the buildings that can be view from the hotel room.


One of the rivers crossing thru Guilin and people can take a boat ride for a cruise along the river.




This view isnt exactly from my room but from of the the hotel. I think its kinda like a central park with a spacious centre and infront of it is a stage.


Kalau dilihat dengan lebih dekat, banyak campuran dan gubahan bunga yang indah. Tempat berehat pun ada disediakan sebagai kemudahan untuk orang awam.



Permandangan di awal pagi, looking towards one of the many beautiful natural mountains in Guilin.


Just before the busy crossing can be found this beautifully erected 'beams' on both sides of the streets.



Pada kebiasaannya kawasan yang terdapat gerbang seperti itu menunjukkan kawasan 'china town'. But since we are in china, does it mean we are in china town in china?? hmm..



Sebuah kerusi awam yang unik. Mempunyai reka bentuk seakan-akan orang sedang duduk dikerusi tersebut.

While walking around the streets, i came across this 'bridge' or platform the connects both lands. People would seem to be walking on water during high tide isnt it? hehe..


From the 1st pix above, this is how one of the placese looks like from close view.


This kind of shops is common in Guilin and this street is known as Walking Street. Streets for people to walk to their destination and sambil-sambil atu boleh lah window shopping or maybe even membeli-belah tarus..
Between those kind of shops, the small and compact type of shops is also common in this areas.

Unique sculpture align at the side walk.


Again another well design beams align along the streets.



This building is selling mobile phone from end to end. Its a big shop.. Boleh jua buatkan kamu confuse kalau kan membali telipun..




One of the mosque it came across whilst in Guilin. Sadly the entrance to the mosque is through a short alley. Not as grand as we're use to here. The houses in the picture is kinda like a small factory / storage.. Thus the big van parking next to it..


Salah satu sungai dikawasan bandar Guilin yang menawarkan perkhidmatan 'boat cruise' untuk mengelilingi bandar. Perjalanan yang ditawarkan ada diwaktu siang dan juga malam. This lake is known as Rong Lake.


One of the places during the boat ride is under a bridge.. The boat ride will pass by mountains, city centre and even reservoir.


Saya kurang pasti sama ada batu-batu ini adalah alami atau buatan manusia.. tapi usulnya macam semula jadi pulang..



Melihat dari jarak dekat, the glass bridge is actually a real bridge!!! haha... ku pikir tah perhiasan semata-mata.. Melalui jambatan kaca ada satu cafe bagi pengunjung yang berminat untuk merehatkan minda sambil santai-santai.



There a small place to relax and enjoy the view next to the lake. Looking at the Sun and Moon Pagodas in Shan Lake.



Bridge is provided for those people who wish to enter and take a close look at both pagodas.. The hotel behind it is where i'm staying.. :)



In the dark, you can see running lights between the storeys with colours changing every seconds.


The glass bridge is well lit in the evening.




Another boat ride passing by the sun and moon pagodas. Not only is the pagodas shines brightly but the borders of the lakes are also well lit.
