life

Salam...

Today i went to Kuantan to get stock for top-up. Right after i park my motorcycle, i saw one blind pakcik selling handicraft he made himself (like pencil case using rotan n such), he even make it there the moment i saw him.

Next to him there's another blind couple singing while playing music instrument. I'm easily touched by this kind of situation. So i just decide to donate to the blind couple. N continues my walk to take my top-up.

When i'm ready to go back, i saw that man selling handicraft earlier. He is checking his stuff (he tied it all together so that it is easier for him to grab on later n not misplaced). Again i feel pity for him. I turn off my ex5 and walk to him.

"Pakcik, bekas ni kira mcm mana", i asked and take the pencil case and bring it to him.


rm5, maybe not look like it but i think its okay

"Ni jual satu-satu, nak berapa? Dua? Tiga?", he replied.

"Satu berapa?", i asked the priced of the pencil case just now.

"5 ringgit satu yang bekas pensel ni", the old man replied.

So i took out my wallet and pay for it. And there i can see a happy smile from his face. Really, i dont mind donating my money to people really2 in need. Its heartbreaking when i'm not able to donate to all of them.

Another situation, 2 old man (not so old) sitting at a corner with a bowl in front of them. Then a mother with 2 son or daughter sleeping on their ribs also begging for money. A line of people with different style (one loss left leg, another one lost his right and so on). And for this type of person they are not the type that i'll give my money to

At least they should do something instead of just sitting there. Its the same like some old man lepak at home, but instead of sitting at home, these kind of people sitting at one corner begging for money.

For example, go to Pasar Seni LRT station and you'll see an indian right down the elavator. U might see that he lost his left/right/both leg. But actually he has both.

Or walk to the bridge at Puduraya, you'll see all kind of unlucky human there. There's blind, sick and so on. But the fact is, they can SEE!! Blind people wont just go to somewhere being a beggar. They even have their own association to help them find job.

Hmm, this is the world today. Its hard to know which one is real and fake anymore. I just hope that other normal living human wont take advantage of the good hearted citizen of Malaysia.

Wasalam...

p/s: if one doesnt have to think think twice voting for afundi, which doesnt benefit anyone except the company it self...why dont they donate rm2 to Bersamamu program. Well, they are acting a little bit but still they need help with their life...just think about it.

there it goes...

Salam...

Yeah...there it goes. Before typing this, this entry i already done typing one entry that suppose to be one technique about releasing hands from grips.

But maybe its now berkat to teach "ilmu" for free. Some silat practitioners says in one forum, "Silat bukan barangan murahan", "We didnt bring the horse to the water, but we wait for the horse to beg for it". I take it as true. Both opinion is right for me.

As for me, the "ilmu" i didnt take it as cheap, i didnt look down on it. I didnt take it for granted. I not trying to claim myself of being a Guru or something.

What i think i did was because of my self awareness. For my fellow friends who doesnt have time to learn, maybe by reading my post it might help, even a little bit.

What is wrong there to share the knowledge we have with others? (what i wrote that is gone is out of silat, its my own way i found while thinking and tried to others). Nah..i dont care if no one read it, as long as it might feed some info to someone accidentally bump here...

well...i'm quite upset after such a detail post and explanation, what a waste :(

Weight n Speed

Salam...

Its 3am. Just got back from pidots room. They arrive at UMP yesterday morning, so hey...our group has re-unite together back. Only nuar is not there. Maybe tomorrow.

The whole day is a lot of fun. After lunch, we opened the long awaited thing - the CARD. yes. Well, thats our free time game though. Stopped after few round and continued after dinner until 10pm. Went back to room to do some work and after 12pm, feeling bored walking to their room and start to "cong" the card. hahaha. There will always someone that will join the game and just now it was five of us together with shahidan. The player just now is me,wang,adik,pidot, and shahidan. Wang is bringing his jin tonite whn all the good cards come to him. Pidots jin cina is still celebrating the chinese new year. Wang using jin hindu.wakakakaka. And i got nothing. Start the game with 5 straight lose. Damn it. Never had that kind of game. FYI, we played Royal game. Its the most simple game and the only game most of us know. And after that im following adiks old principle..."tak no 1, last..."...hehehe...

Ahh...about weight and speed. I always dream to have a big body as i have now, but with less weight. Why? First of all, i like this big body because of the protection it gave. Imagine somebody suddenly swinging their punch to you, with skinny body can u handle it? Well as for me, im pretty confident to take 2-3 full swing punch right through my stomach without protection. Currently, with full body weight momentum i can throw a punch that can sway the 80lbs punching bag up to the ceiling. Not full though since when i did that my knee pop a lil bit.

As for speed, i really hope that i can throw kicks like abg dollah (my silat cekak jurulatih). So fast you cant see it with your eyes.

Theoritically its like boxer. There is fighter type and theres boxer type.

Fighter type is an infighter, they usually slower, have damn good blows, fast dash and heavy punches.

While boxer type is the one using their footwork in boxing. They usually fast, using their speed to collects points and usually counter puncher (using opponent momentum back at them)

What i dream i can have is i want to have both, the weight and the speed...which is IMPOSSIBLE. hahahaha. Theres advantage for each type of fighter you be. You should be the one to decide what you want to be. Someone rooting the leg to the ground and infight or deceiving the opponent to hit them.



Me as silat cekak practitioner, avoiding is not a way of fight. The principle in Cekak is move only forward. Not moving back, neither right nor left. Only forward and for the move i encourage you to join to know more about it. And know the secrets and advantages fighting while standing straight. So im rooting to the ground.

So for conclusion, it is better to decide which way of fighting you are similar most. In case you are attacked, you will know what you had to do. Either wait for your opponent movement or you start one yourself.

Thats all for today. Hope my tips helps :)

Wasalam...

holiday end

Salam...

There is only two days left before the timetable starts back as usual, continuing our routine life in Universiti Malaysia Pahang, the new name replacing Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan dan Teknologi Malaysia.

The upcoming event to be aware of is Japanese language test, Seminar PSM 1, submiting all the assignments, submit the slide for Seminar PSM 1 and the list goes on. Its really going to be a busy week after this peaceful holiday. Not so peaceful though, empty minded thinking how to solve the problem of the assignments.

Lucky i have Wang here, acting as my catalyzer for me to do all the work.heh. Its been a tough week. Most of the entry in my to-do list has been completed such as set appoinment at HTAA, slide for PSM, emt (not quite...haha.still didnt write properly).

But what excite me most, we will be continuing silat cekak training after this week. Its fun to learn how to deflect many kind of attack and defend system of other martial arts.

Talking about martial arts, its been a while since i start teaching my mom and my sister about ordinary attack by street attackers. FYI, my mom is still in fobia since the ragut incident last year. My sister is growing and who knows if someone with corrupted mind might do something to her (ya Allah, selamatkan lah keluarga ku dari sebarang bencana..amiinn).

So what i do is, when we chatting together with my mom i just show her how she might get attacked and simple way to deflect it. For example in case being locked, choke or anything that might happen. As for my sis, while im playing with her, i show her the basic way how to release her hand if someone hold it harshly or the way she dont like. We do it in the fun way bcos she is still a kid. Might get in her head faster though.huhu

For my female friends, i just want to remind you about how dangerous streets in Malaysia it can be. Someone looking really normal might become a violent person in just a minute. It is better to know a little simple tips to help yourself in trouble. Even one simple move can determine your life and death. Its not hard actually. There is even books out there teaching simple technique that is really useful for women. I found one in Popular for around RM 40 and lots of tips too.

Same thing mentioned by other experts on TV shows:

- do not walk alone
- do not walk in quiet street
- aware of the surroundings
- walk with friends instead of being alone


Maybe in the future ill show a few way to help yourself in case anything happened...who knows ;)


Wasalam
