Hello Loggers, Lets talk about friends here.
Friends are the bastion of hope for many including myself. I've been an introvert my whole life, never exploring the things or people outside of my comfort zone. And because of this friendship is paramount for me because i base friendship on trust and solely on trust. The importance of friends to me is seconded by family. Meaning i will always put family ahead of friends but still friends are super important to me.
But recently i have to face a thing that is feared among friendships. This thing is called betrayal. I know its my choice to trust you but it is your choice to prove me wrong, still it is immoral to do so. The details of that will not be shared here as it contains names and situations known to many. But the important thing is that i keep all your secrets but why can you do the same? It's not that hard.
Sharing secrets is something that is common among friends and i too have some dirt on people that i care and i would rather die then disclose them to other people.
Friendship also requires a lot of sacrifices, mainly time. To spend time with a friend or i prefer to call them 'sahabat' is important. They might need some closure so with you just being there it might be enough, like what i went through and my Best KPM Friends came and console me on what ever it is i was facing and they let me know that i was not in it alone, i have them to look up to, a shoulder to cry on, and ear to listen and arms to grab me back. I bid you the most sincere of thank you's to you special people. The people who would look away at my differences and treated me as equal. I love you guys and i will never forget what you did to me.
I know i might be rambling here but to summarize things here, friendship is important, people find refuge there (like i have) and always respect a secret when you get one. I think that is all for now. Thank you for spending a few minutes here each time reading what my mind comes up with. Till next time loggers.
STRONG MIND, STRONG FAITH, STRONG HEART!

A little something
Hello loggers
I'm here today to share a little something that i think is important. I found this out a little late in my life but nothing is beyond repair right?
Ok here goes.
Through the years of studying, living and life, i found out something very important. This important little thing is called determination. Simply put that determination is something we all need to do something till completion.
Without determination we might start something and unfortunately not following it through till the end. I've had the taste of the death of determination 1st hand during my early post SPM studies (only the one's close to me know about it :p). I've jumped ship once and I almost jumped the second one. But a wave of new determined friends, dedicated friends brought me back or rather held me back from jumping ship. I am forever indebted with them.
Determination can be affected by a lot of things like emotions, mood and etc. But remember a strong determination resides only in yourself and no one can help you get the determination you need. People can only explain to you or describe to you what determination is and it is ultimately up to you to grab that sack of determination and push through hell (obviously exaggerated).
As a summary, Never lose determination, have good friends that can show you and always know when to have determination. That is for now dear loggers, till next time.

The young, the old, the foolish.
Today i had the privilege (or rather forced) to go to work with my twin there. Somewhere around 10 am in the morning, there was this one Nigerian man a regular to the shop coming in and Hariz started to chat with him.
During their lengthy chat I sat at the sidelines listening while doing my own thing. They chatted on one thing and one thing only. They chatted about what he (the Nigerian man) thinks about Malaysian youths and their life styles and also comparing to youths from his homeland. Mind you that this particular Nigerian man is a PhD Student.
(Side note : He did include some political stuff but i'll just skip that part and only mention it briefly)
He said "I worry about Malaysian youths, they only like to have fun. They think this world was mended for them. The Opposition is also not helping. They are offering soo many things for free like free water, free education and free everything." with a very concerned face. He then pulled out a one Ringgit note and said with a very sad face "This is 54 Nigerian Dollars!. I do not want Malaysia to fall in the same fate as my Country even though we are cough in so many conflicts but if the youngsters don't want to reach for their studies, they are better off dead instead of being dead weigh."He also said "You should never give up on studying, always try to find something new to learn everyday so you will know and treasure that is knowledge."
The last part hit me hard, since i was in the brink of quitting but somehow hearing this from a complete stranger made me think long and hard. I was stunned, he was so concerned about Malaysian students and youths, and here i was about to throw it away like a piece of life leeching virus.
Summarizing the entire chat and converting it to understandable words or in Laymen terms, Never give up. keep fighting for knowledge, never be stagnant and always be progressive.
So this is it for now loggers i hope this brings some good.

It has been 4 years since i last posted on this blog... Reading back brings a mix of emotions. Good, bad, bitter, sweet. Looking back at the things i've done, it easy to judge that i was not a good person. inside and out.
But after a few year i tend to think back, after looking back that everything happens for a reason. The reason might not be good sometimes but you might have to gut it out. Face it and confront it.
I've done a lot of mistakes in my life and i dare say I am still making them now. But after so long, i have to face my demons or it will forever haunt me.
Seeing friends graduate, losing friends, breach of trust, its all the handy work of life. We have to face it one way or the other.
As for now, i am thinking in reviving this blog again. This will be the place where i will share my life, my experiences and my thoughts to the world.
For i am his servant, and he is my Lord.
