Epilogue

Today is Tuesday. Usually at this time, I'm preparing to summarize everything and let everyone going out of the class. Coincidentally, it should be the final class today, but as it is a replacement holiday, so, there is no formal final class, and the final exam also will be in online mode, so last week should be THE DAY, but it's not.

There are so many things I want to write now. There are so many memorable moments (for me) this semester. There are so many things that I need to be grateful and thankful. But, as all the things inside the world, we can only do what we supposed to do. We can only say within the time given. We can only act for the things that happened in the moment. Lost opportunities? The moment has sailed away, with all the emotions.

I can only give advises on 2-3 things, as I won't be writing long (I hope). First, please, do not take things for granted. I know, grades are important, super important, BUT, please acknowledge that you learnt so many things this semester, inside this class. Even though you got a "not so satisfied" grade, please keep the notes, please utilize whatever you learnt in class. Please bear in mind, knowledge is power.

Second, I hope the relationship last longer. Whatever grades you got, I never judge. I really hope that you can still talk to me after the semester ends. When we crossed path anywhere, I hope you can still recognize me. If you need an advice, anything, ranging from academic or career development or university life, or even the moment that you need someone to talk to, you can rely on me, really. I know this is a long shot, but this is NOT the first time for me.

Third, enjoy your life. Things are not gonna be smooth sailing each day. When you face a bad day, just bear with it. Or, if you can, just go back to your room, and have a nap, or even a sleep. You will not win every battle in life, but I hope you will WIN the most important one.

This is epilogue. Good luck everyone.

Mula

Semasa tema ini dipilih, ada dua tiga skop yang boleh aku cakup dan kaitkan dengan apa yang berlaku dalam hidup aku buat masa ini. Tapi, rupanya, tak sampai 24 jam, satu tragedi berlaku. Aku mula mengajar Aplikasi Komputer pada tahun 2012. Dari 43 orang pelajar kelas tersebut, aku masih lagi tidak putus hubungan dengan 4 orang. Kami semua terkesan dengan kematian mengejut tunang kepada seorang ini. Mula bercinta dari bulan puasa baru ini, tarikh untuk ijabkabul pun sudah ada, 07 Januari 2023, apakan daya, perancangan Allah itu lebih hebat. Mungkin ia lebih kepada pengakhiran, tetapi sebenarnya, ia adalah perMULAan untuk rakanku ini untuk meneruskan kehidupan. Siapa sahaja yang mampu menghadapi kematian dengan tabah. Hatta, tidak adil untuk kita meminta mereka untuk terus kuat dan tabah. Apakah kita akan kuat dan tabah sekiranya kita di tempat mereka?

Prologue

This is a new start for me. It's a long story, and I don't believe people will fully understand what had happened, or even after hearing my stories, I don't really believe that people will be on my side. That's the price of unknown things. That's the price of secret. At first, I thought, I can be a new me, or maybe somebody that even I don't recognize. Maybe the world just need a person who are nice, a person who can shield everyone from the reality, a person who is a role model. As I walk through the days, I know I can't do that. I can't face my own self in the future, if I tried to be somebody else. This is a package: an eccentric, emotional, aggressive, passionate and no-nonsense person.That's me. I teach with a purpose. I know people will not understand. Most of them thought that the benchmark is high. Or the notion, "everyone should already know this and that". I'm not. I truly believe that these students need the full guidance, as...

Relationship

Giving theme like this is such a spontaneous thing to do. Relationship, I can go on about this topic for so long. I always give advice and stories to anyone about this. I believe that I have a unique experience, throughout my life. Some of the experience, I’m not proud of it. But, in any way, this is the thing that we should cherish. This is also a relationship, between an educator and the students. Most of the time, it will only be for a small portion of moment. Yes, like studying for grade, keeping up with your lecturers is also, only for the grade. For those who can keep up with this relationship, even after the subject, or even after not getting good grades, I salute you. You are the sincere one. Thank you.
