We and Mom

-
A few days ago, it was a day when children cherished their mother, it was celebrated by children all over the world. How to convey the appreciation is up to the children, but it seems almost the same, which is to buy a gift for a dear mother. In my family, we rarely practice what today's society practices, including the celebration of Mother's Day, but that does not mean that me and my brother do not love our mother.

Since my father passed away in 2007, I took on the responsibility of taking care of my mother in the village, although there was a dream that I wanted to pursue but because at that time I was still unemployed compared to my brother who had worked. I have to sacrifice. I do not intend to leverage the sacrifices that I have made all this time, just express the feelings that are in my mind & heart all this time. This is because I think the story of my life journey should be better than the way life went.

After several years of harboring feelings, God allowed me to feel what it is like to live independently abroad. 2012 to 2015, a long time to live independently in Putrajaya, although I hoped to get a better job during that period, but my destiny was the opposite. I returned to the village, so did my brother starting 2016.

Lately, my mother's health condition is increasingly testing us siblings. I can't imagine what happened in 2018. At that time, I was giving a briefing at a high school in Tumpat. My mother is said to be unconscious because the sugar content in her body is very low due to fasting, my mother is a diabetic. For almost a week, my mother was admitted to the hospital.

As a result of our insensitivity to the mother’s health, our mother was once again unconscious due to an attack of a bacterial disease in the blood, causing one side of the mother’s leg to become red, it is believed to be the result of a bacterial infection. The infection lasted for almost a week but my brother and I did not feel it was something to worry about. Luckily for us, although my mother was unconscious but not critical, she was able to get treatment at the Clinic the next day.

In different situations, the mother is almost unconscious due to food sticking to her respiratory cavity. Luckily I was there at that time and was able to help to allow my mother to breathe again. What happened was that I had to always be with my mother, only at the same time I had to have a job that gave me a monthly income, only until now I still fail to get it.

There are concerns because my age is currently reaching 40 years while my situation is still stagnant without any fixed source of income. At this time, my mother helped me a lot financially, imagine what my situation would be like later if my mother was not there ?.My brother definitely helps but he himself has a life that requires its own cost. At the moment, my brother is still unmarried so financial assistance may be able to give more, only later I'm not sure or do not want to think about it. Only God Almighty knows the next story.

Pengalaman menjadi Guru

Setiap dari kita pasti bertemu seorang insan bernama 'Cikgu'. Insan yang memainkan peranan penting dalam mendidik kita selain dari ibubapa di rumah.  Dari dahulu lagi, orang sering ibaratkan menjadi guru ini seperti menjadi sebatang lilin yang membakar diri demi menerangi jiwa dan hati anak bangsa. Aku ingin berkongsi sedikit pengalaman menjadi seorang cikgu. Pengalaman yang tidak pernah terjangka di minda aku. Pernah memohon menjadi guru lepasan DPLI atau KPLI tapi semua permohonan aku gagal termasuk temuduga yang turut keputusannya mendukacitakan aku. Kisah aku menjadi guru bermula apabila tamat kontrak sebagai tele-marketing sebuah Kolej Swasta di Kota Bharu.Ketika itu, aku menghantar resume ke semua organisasi yang difikirkan sesuai termasuk sekolah swasta.  Dijadikan cerita, pada suatu hari aku menerima panggilan temuduga dari salah satu Sekolah Swasta di Kota Bharu. Sekolah tersebut dikatakan merupakan sekolah yang terkenal sejak dari dahulu lagi. Sekolah tersebut b...

Walaupun telah lama aku tinggalkan Universiti Malaya, terutama Jabatan Pengajian Media, masih ada kenangan yang terpahat dalam ingatan. Pelbagai kisah tidak tercatat tetapi di coret dalam kamus hidup aku. Setelah melaporkan diri di Kolej Kediaman Ke-7, aku mempunyai tempoh 1-2 minggu untuk menentukan Subjek Major & Minor bagi melengkapkan Ijazah Sarjan Muda nanti.   Pada mulanya aku berminat pada Pengajian Hubungan Antarabangsa & Strategik sebagai subjek major.  Namun pada hari pertama masuk kelas pengenalan, lecture terus bagi assignment yang lebih fokus kepada undang-undang antarabangsa, membuatkan aku terasa takut sangat dengan beban bakal aku pikul nanti. Lagipun aku bukan dalam kategori pelajar pintar seperti orang lain. Seterusnya aku mencuba Jabatan Pengajian Media, abang aku merupakan mantan pelajar Jabatan ini, maka aku pernah mendapat pendedahan berkenaan hala tuju graduan Jabatan Pengajian Media nanti.  Bagi pelajar-pelajar yang ingin mendapatkan Jabata...

Mengapa Pegawai Penerangan?

-
Ketika aku masih bergelar pelajar universiti, telah terdetik persoalan di akal ini. Apakah jenis pekerjaan yang bakal berjaya diperolehi apabila menamatkan pengajian nanti.  Semestinya, di antara alasan mengapa kita belajar adalah untuk mendapatkan pekerjaan yang diimpikan. Aku merupakan pelajar Pengajian Media, Fakulti Sains Sosial, Universiti Malaya. Sepanjang tempoh pengajian, aku lebih fokus mempersiapkan diri bekerja sebagai seorang Pegawai Perhubungan Awam (PRO). Abang aku juga merupakan pelajar Jabatan Pengajian Media. Beliau telah berjaya menjawat jawatan sebagai  Pegawai Penerangan di Jabatan Penerangan Negara, di bawah Kementerian Komunikasi dan Multimedia Malaysia .  Aku secara tidak langsung mula memahami tugas seorang pegawai penerangan jabatan atau kementerian. Tugas pegawai penerangan sebenarnya hampir sama dengan tugas pegawai perhubungan awam (PRO), hanya nama sahaja berbeza, pegawai penerangan lebih kepada sektor kerajaan manakala PRO di sektor swasta. B...
