I can't remember whether I have shared these quotes and I'm too lazy to check whether it had been posted in this blog or not. Since today is Friday and I feel like posting something good to be read, so here are the quotes to ponder about;


1. What refines man, is work.

2. What kills man before his death, is despair.

3. What is better than knowledge, is experience.

4. What brings man honour and esteem, is modesty.

5. What is more cherished when it is old, is a friend.

6. What gives man tranquility, is the avoidance of envy.

7. What is indeed more profitable than wealth, is wisdom.

8. What is indeed short, however long it may seem, is life.

9. What is indeed too many, however few of it there may be, is enemy.

10. What is indeed too little, however much of it one may have, is faith.

11. What is more horrific than all forms of loneliness, is selfishness.

12. What is sturdier than all other shelters, is the avoidance of sins.

*I forgot where I found and took these quotes.

2 weeks, 2 Events, 2 Workshops, Another 2 SVs & Too Tired

1. 2 weeks
Last week and this week which mean in two weeks time I have to many programmes scheduled in my planner and in my head.

2. 2 events
I have to help and attend 2 events organized by the postgraduate association.

3. 2 workshops
Involve in organizing 2 econometrics workshops. The first workshop was held last week and another workshop will be held on this coming Thursday. Due to my carelessness I lost RM100 of of the first workshop's fees. I can replace the money but still I'm feeling bad about that. I have checked many times, count it infront of my friend and make sure it was tally with the account. I couldn't find or think where that RM100 have gone. Don't tell me anymore mystique stories because i've heard enough on the day I was losing that money. Accept as it was my mistake and carelessness.

4. 2 Supervisors
My first supervisor recommended another two supervisors whom I will have to work with. Haven't settled few things regarding the signature and proposal with both of them.

5. Too Tired
Physically and mentally too tired in these two weeks.

How time flies!!!!It is already February of the year. For the past few weeks life was so hectic. I've just submitted my work to SV and alhamdulillah he accepted it without much comment.Well another work is still waiting for me but feeling like blogging today after a late night sleep last night and the hassle of printing my work today.

I wonder whether it is already too late to make a review of what happened in 2009. But still I want to make a review what happened last year

My study
It has been 2 years since I started to do my Phd journey. Alhamdulillah I have completing the coursework and the comprehensive exams. Now, I have started to write a dissertation on monetary transmission mechanism and hopefully it will be finish within two years since I have another two years of sponsorship.

My Self
Not much progress in myself except I’m obviously not getting younger by the second.Ha3x

My family
We have a great loss in the member of the family when my nephew was invited by Allah before Ramadhan last year. He left us with a lot of good and sweet memories to be remembered.

My Phone
I have written about my phone twice in the blog. Well…. my handphones were really giving me head ache last year. Never in my life I bought two handphones in a year or should I say in just few months. My first handphone I bought this year cannot be fixed anymore. Full stop. So I need to buy another handphone which I lost my handphone few weeks after I bought it and thank goodness a nice young guy found it. When I realized I lost my handphone I called my number and Alhamdulillah he answered and asked me to take it back. Well this make the third entry I wrote about handphone. Hopefully I will not write it again.

My house
Not really my house but my rented house will be sold by my landlord because he wants to buy a new house. Since the S & P haven’t settled or maybe not done yet and I still have the agreement with me with three months notice before emptying the house, I don’t feel like thinking about it with loads of work now. Anyway, I’m not really sad since my landlord is so nice and considerate and I have been living happily in this house for two years with a good neighbourhood and surau where I can go my terawih during fasting month.
