Relics

Hey, more photo posts.

There seems to be a virus that resides in my pendrive after being infected from the school computer. The pesky virus wouldn't go away and it messed up my files, so I lost a lot of information, including all my photos! I swear I'm not sticking any more pendrives into my home pc!

By the way, I found some of these pictures in my home pc. These are all last year's pictures, mind you:

COOKING CLASS gone awry!

actually, it was for our 'innovation' project that didn't-turn-out-well-and-in-the-end-was-terbengkalai last year.

This was the second batch of the "cough drops" that actually turned out as gula-gula nisan. I didn't even know such a candy existed until we did this. so, despite being a failure, it was an educational one. Part of the team were Atiq and Liyana. haa..the good old days.



peppermint extract.



melting the 'nisan'.



adding 'em groundnuts.



what's cooking? A whole lotta goop! nah..it's a mix of crushed groundnuts, flour, cinnamon, honey adn peppermint extract. Thanks to Cikgu Aidah for letting us borrow her stove and make a mess out of the Home Economics room, and thanks to our adik-adik form 3 at that time who helped us mash the nuts. =)



and the finished product. I know it looks unflattering, but the first batch was worse, the one that I did with my granny during the holidays. Indeed, the project was a flash in the pan (pun intended).

next is the biji Katak Puru as a cure for diabetes project that was also terbengkalai.



introducing buah kodok


we were suppose to test on wether or not the extract from the seed could actually reduce glucose content, so we conducted an experiment involving the Benedict's solution to test for presence of glucose in the mix of kodok-extract and glucose. Well, it didn't turn out right, so in the end, since I was too busy with my other commitments, the project was abandoned.



next are the pictures from Arabic Cultural Festival in SBPI Jempol. I met Affan and Amirual Izzat, my ole' SKLK schoolmates who went to SBPI Sabak Bernam and STAR, respectively. But I didn't get to take any pictures with them.



yep, Hishamuddin steals the limelight all right, but I'm not fanatic enough to be in the same photo with him.



The guys (Hakim, Aiman Yusoh and Latif) and girls (Jannah, me and Farhanah) with Ustazah Noraziah on Day 1. Oh, the sad thing about HK ARab is that I lost all my precious group pictures. It was my first time with my KODAk C713, and someone had accidentally deleted my pictures. *sob*sob* These are the pictures from Farhanah.



with Farhanah





and..the best thing was..I was a BPI (Badan Pelajar Islam) or the Faris version of BADAR for a day.. alim-alim pun akulah yang pakai tudung singkat sekali..geli hati betul..

Pantai Sabak for our Shell-NSTP Global Warming Journalism Workshop and our Form 3 Geography kerja kursus. =D This is the only 'surviving' picture I have of Pantai Sabak after the virus ordeal.


well, that's about all.

My Unintended

I'm going back today =( My class is seemingly doing a drama on inter-species romance. An alien princess with a homo sapien teenager. It's gonna be fun. The props are gonna be out-of-this-world and maybe, kind of complex to make, but all the same, marvelous if we can pull it off. For the setting, we might be doing a space backdrop. Costumes, perhaps a blend of futuristic, contemporary and medievel and a little touch of Goth as it will be in a modern-day Halloween setting. We haven't discussed the storyline yet, but it's going to be a fusion of comedy, action and the lot.. Inspirations come from an array of popular sci-fi characters from Star Wars, Star Trek and a Malay short story Anyss Sophillea. I just can't wait.

My Fair Lady

This is an old issue, I know. What has brought my attention to the topic of women rights was when I watched one of the episodes of Commander In Chief on Hallmark. In that series, the president of the United States was supposedly a woman. Interesting, and she plans to take the stand for women rights to the next level despite the controversies arousing her brave statement. The debate was whether or not it was relevant to debate on an old issue, in respect of the state of today's society. Women of today have a better status than they did way back in the days of history old. Women emancipation has been heatedly debated especially in the West throughout the time, and perhaps, the most memorable one was of the Suffragettes, fighting for the right of women to vote. Some places in Africa, in history, do not even recognize rape of women, as a crime, however, all of that has changed, thankfully. The question now is, are women actually 'emancipated' as we are all made to belief? well,...

Stuff To Think About

Reformation of Islam? Last I've heard of it was during sejarah lessons about Islah movements by Syeikh (?) Muhammad Abduh and the lot of it. After Infidel, there poses a question of whether or not there is a need to reform Islam. Is it the reformation of Islam, or the reformation of Muslims? In due course of this reformation, there is a debate regarding the reinterpretation of the Quran. I've been watching some of these videos and I find them quite enlightening. I do wish there are more discussions such as these in my own classroom. The questions were also thought-provoking. I just wished that the questions or subject matter of religious discussions in classrooms were less politics oriented, which you may or may not have deep knowledge of what is going on. Why not take it to a more personal level on how you yourself evaluate your own interpretation of your religion? Truth be told, I had wanted to become a devout Muslim, and once, my means of achieving that is follow...
