2014 Earth Hour

.the 2014 Earth hour just passed days ago. i am fully support this event in my way since 4 years ago. i didn't join any event organised by any NGOs or organizer, i just create some poster, put them on the hallway, the notice board, in my fb and even as my profile and cover picture. i tagged as much of my friends as i can on the poster.i hope they aware of this event, hoping them to participate or just to get know about this event to show concern about this global issue. thanked to Allah , i am an environmental student and from here i get to know about this.

.maybe you wont get the point or cant see the impact of switching off your light for an hour . in my opinion, that period would give you enough space and time to think about our polluted earth. switching off the light reduced our energy consumption and carbon released. this can be a starting point of a person to realize how much energy and money wasted to pay for bills, and hoping they would start switching off unnecessary light and electrical appliances in the future from now on. in fact, being in darkness would at least give you opportunity to feel the darkness experienced by our brothers and sisters in Palestine, Egypt, Syria, Iraq and other countries. we should always thank to Allah for all His nikmat given to us.

.i did informed my housemates about the earth hour and hoping for their support. and they already know about this earth hour before. unfortunately, they seem not informed, and dont want to bother to be part of this event. they still do the cooking, studying and preparing for gym at that moment which i think they can do earlier prior to lights off. at the end, i isolated myself watching tv in the dark alone whereas the lights in my bedroom, kitchen was on for this unaware people. i was regret of what happened among our people- the attitude has shown in small niche of my housemates. its not the government or educational system to be blame but the person themselves. they are not uneducated people, most of us in the house has a degree.
and in the darkness, i heard one of my housemate said this-"even the environmental lecturer dont even bother to switch off the lights!".trust me thats hurt. really hurt. maybe this uptown woman want a big event with press coverage around then only she wants to participate.and in the darkness, i cried alone. trust me once i am a lecturer (inshaAllah) i will and force my students to do this!

.here some of posters that i got from google image and edited for 2012 and this year earth hour.

.i am just a small person want to help our earth.

A beginning of zumba

I think of writing here in english so i can improve my writing skill and vocabulary. so its about 6 months i am as a postgrad student in this lovely state of northern peninsula malaysia. a lot of things happened and some i missed to share in here.

I am still in journal review phase and yet about to begin labwork with apparatus, chemical searching and set up. i am very excited to start these. i am the one who chose this path, and i would be the one who is very happy to go through it.

So about last month my friend talked about zumba. i knew about it before and interested to join. yet i am not seriously seeking any. so i have been joining 4 session and plan to keep this activity. since we work much in labwork and air conditioning environment 5 days a week, im not wasting my sweat at all. and trust me zumba would give so much fun and sweat! . moreover, i love dancing. and the gym is attend by women. muslim ladies like me would have no worries much about aurat to men. its 4J Fitness Centre, just opposite to JKR Perlis.

I hope can attend this zumba session constantly to keep healthy and have some fun!!
