PhDku dan Anak-Anakku

Tik tok tik tok…emmm the time run very fast..
I’m now entering my third year of my PhD in a couple of months..
How your progress?
A bit late of my scheduled tasks plus much more additional tasks must be carried on..
This new semester of 2009, I will be a marker for two subjects. I’m not an expert for these subjects so it’s not easy for me.
My group in the science building wants to build a commercial software. I will part of it..More meeting to attend and more data analysis and testing should be done. But all of these tasks are ok with me as my participation in the project might help to enhance the quality of my research. And also it will give me valuable experience in software development.
Papers?
I’ve been struggling to finish the writing of two papers. One for a IEEE conference in NZ and one is for a journal. The paper for the IEEE conference is almost finish but the journal paper, need a lot of changes..
I have two bad experiences about journal submission during my master. My papers were rejected with ‘unpleasant comments’….So for this one, which is for my PhD, I’ve to make sure that the paper is up to the standard of the journal..


How about my family?
‘Mencabar”..the only word that can describe my situation now..
I do respect with Phd students who have many little children and gain success in their PhD. They remained calm, strong and yet more productive. They even can write s few journal articles…
Bagaimana dgn anak-anaku
Anakku Ikram,
A big boy now..
Sometimes he said “it’s not funny Ikram”..He repeated what his teachers had said to him. I know why the teachers said like that. It is because Ikram were doing something that he thinks funny but actually annoying other people. This situation usually happens when Ikram is sleepy or tired. He will be a bit lost of control…The solution: put him on a bed..
Anakku Nadhirah…
Adek like to explore. She even climbs tables to get what she wants like pencils and camera. If she plays with Ikram, the situation in the house will be similar to a childhood center. The generated noise is like comes from many children…

Kedua2 anakku suka makan kek..
Baru2 nie cuba resipi blueberry muffin..
Suka rasanya sampaikan bila nampak ada lagi muffin kat bekal Ikram masa amik dia, rasa suka sgt..Sbb tak puas makan lagi..
Kali kedua buat, kurang sikit rasa sbb terkurang gula…sbb ganti brown sugar dgn white sugar (white sugar abis pulak).jadi terkurang manis …pas tu terlupa letak cinnamon dan terlebih tepung kat crumble muffin tuh…..takper lain kali mesti cuba lagi sbb nak rasa mcm yg first time buat…

Kesimpulannya, buat Phd + membesarkan anak2 = teruji kesabaran + kesuntukan masa





Dah ada Phd + Anak2 yg cemerlang = kepuasan + kesyukuran

Gambar muffin yg sedap tapi teritam sikit..

Adik kat Cornwall park





Adik tgk2 luar gan abg Ikram




Di tingkap ini tempat yg disukai Ikram dan Adik




Sbb kat tingkap nie nampak laut dan Sky city:







Syukur di atas segala nikmatNya..
