Ust. Asri (Rabbani) meninggal dunia..

AL-FATIHAH..

Ust. Asri (Rabbani) telah pergi bertemu Tuhannya...
Sebagai pendengar nasyid, ini satu kehilangan yang cukup besar dalam arena ini...
Terimbas kembali kisah kehilangan Allahyarham Salleh (Hijjaz) dan Allahyarham Azhari (Raihan)...
Benarlah.. Ajal maut tidak siapa yang tahu..
Perginya beliau setelah pengsan ketika persembahan di Angkasapuri...

Moga rohnya bersama insan-insan yang dirahmatiNya...

Ramadhan menjelang tiba...

Rasulullah S.A.W bersabda:
"Barangsiapa yang berpuasa pada bulan Ramadhan dengan penuh keimanan dan mengharapkan pahala dari ALLAH, dosanya yang lalu telah diampuni (oleh ALLAH)"
(Al-Bukhari; Kitab al-Iman, no.38)

Ramadhan menjelang lagi...
10 hari sebelum bertemu bulan yang penuh barakah...
Mohon padaMu ya ALLAH..
Panjangkanlah umurku untuk kubersama umat Islam yang lain menjalani Ramadhan ini...
Moga Ramadhan tahun ini lebih baik dari Ramadhan sebelumnya...

One day, 2 meaningful things (continued)

BAD things...

For this post, i don't have any pictures to show to u readers...
And I would like to write in Malay..;)

Ok.. pada hari yang sama..
1/8/2009..
Ada perhimpunan haram Anti-ISA dan juga pro-ISA..
Sebaik habis je beli kamera kat Pertama Complex 2, mulalah keadaan kelam-kabut kat dalam dan luar Complex 2...
SOGO tutup.. Kedai2 dalam PC pun dah start tutup kedai masing2..

Aku dan Mukhlis pun mengambil kesempatan menjenguk keadaan..
Kamera dalam beg.. Xleh nak bwk keluar..
Dalam pusing2 menjenguk keadaan itu...
Maka berjumpalah aku dan Mukhlis dengan 4 org..
Siapakah org itu?
  1. DS Anwar Ibrahim
  2. Lim Kit Siang
  3. Mat Sabu
  4. Salahuddin Ayob
4 org besar PR.. jumpa in person..
Selama ni tgk kat TV je.. skang tgk depan mata...

Tiba2...
Keadaan menjadi kecoh...
Semua org berlari...
Lori merah FRU dh sampai...
Apa lagi..
Kami pun berlarilah sama...

dan...
tanpa disedari...
nafas kami sesak..
mata kami pedih...
aku sendiri hampir terjatuh kerana x tertahan...
rupa2nya...
inilah pengalaman pertama kami terkena gas pemedih mata.. CS gas..
mmg perit dan memeritkan..
walaupun hanya d bawa angin..
namun kesannya seolah2 kami berada2 d tgh2 kepulan asap itu..

Akhirnya kami berlindung d salah sebuah kedai kat Jalan TAR...
dalam kedai itulah kami dpt melihat pe yg terjadi di luar..
lori merah FRU.. FRU menembak gas ke kumpulan2 penunjuk perasaan...
lori penyembur air FRU.. mcm2 lah yg kami tgk.. ;)

dalam pukul 3 keadaan reda...
dan kami pun berjalanlah ke stesen komuter Bank Negara, tempat Mukhlis parking kereta..
on the way, dapatlah kami tgk mereka yg kena tangkap dgn polis...

mcm2 jadi sekarang ini..
budaya demonstrasi jalanan semakin menjadi-jadi...
politik pun makin lama semakin memualkan...
apa nak jadi dgn malaysia sekarang...?

One day, 2 meaningful things...

One day, 1st August 2009...

2 meaningful things to me..

1 good, 1 bad...

Which one i want to tell first?

I think i want to tell the good thing first.. ;)

GOOD

Hmm.. on that day.. I met my new LOVE @ Pertama Complex...
Actually i've met her many times, but not in person..
But on that day..

I met her...

Holding her hands..

Caressing her body...

Spending
a lot for her...
Just because I love her...


The best part is..
my mom gave her restu for my new love..
(terima kasih mak..)

You want to know who is she..?
See these 2 pictures... ;)

Hehehe.. yes.. u guest it right..
My new LOVE is my new Nikon D5000 DSLR camera...
It's my first ever DSLR camera!

I fell in love in photography after i have my first digital camera, Kodak C513..
Although I'm quite unhappy with its' performance mainly the picture quality, but it had me thinking and starting to think about owning a DSLR camera...

After a much thinking and researching, at first, I'm targeting a Nikon D60 or Canon EOS1000D..
A basic entry-level DSLR camera...
But, by April 2009, Nikon and Canon both released Nikon D5000 and Canon EOS500D..
Both D5000 and 500D has much less the same spec (i can say that both are intermediate entry level DSLR camera), but after considering the price, I'll go for Nikon D5000, and I'm a Nikonian now! ;)
(actually i do prefer Nikon at the first place..)

OK, what do i get?
  • A Nikon D5000 body
  • Nikkor VR Lens (18-55mm)
  • A tripod (I upgrade/buy a more sturdy tripod, not the free one)
  • A 4GB SDHC memory card
  • An original Nikon camera bag
  • A filter and LCD protector
All of these, I pay RM3060.. (maybe i can get a lesser price at a another place, but I think the range is not that big) and the service is good. I got one-2-one attention from the shopkeeper, thus I'm free to ask him anything that i need to know about owning a DSLR.

Yes, RM3k is a lot.. I would like to thank my mom for sponsoring rm2500 for my camera..
(terima kasih banyak2 mak.. sayang mak..)
and the addition, I add my PTPTN loan money...

I buy this camera, just not by the sake of buying it, but I need a SLR camera because I'm taking a credited co-curricular activity, which is Photography Skills 1 (those who come from uia know this, it is a CCAC subject). Thus, it's a requirement to take and pass this subject for me to graduate from this uni..

And one thing is, having a DSLR is not worthed if you only want to point-n-shoot your pictures..
There is a vast array of functions in DSLR that users can explore. Thus, you need the skills to play around your DSLR and take beautiful pictures. And by taking the class, I can add my knowledge and skills how to play around my DSLR. The most important thing is, it's FREE! ;)
(you know how expansive it can be taking public photography class outside..)

Enough talking, enjoy my first few shots of my Nikon D5000 camera.. ;)


my first ever SLR shot

and this

(Click the pictures to see clearly)

From now on..
I need to take care this most precious posession of mine...
I can't imagine if my D5000 is stolen.. (May ALLAH protect me and that from happening.. Amin..)

And I need to improve my skills after this..
Do leave your comments after seeing the pictures.. ;)


Buah cempedak di luar pagar
Ambil galah tolong jolokkan
Saya budak baru belajar pakai SLR
Kalau salah tolong tunjukkan...

that's the GOOD part...
the BAD part?
