Sajak Untukmu Sahabat !

Andai hari ini engkau jatuh..
Janganlah engkau khuatir !
Percayalah sahabatku..
Aku akan sentiasa disampingmu..
Mendokongmu..

 Dikala mana orang-orang disekelilingmu..
Meninggalkanmu..
Memperlekehkanmu..
Menghiraukanmu..
Aku masih disini tetap ada..
Untuk menyokongmu..

Wahai sahabatku !
Percayalah dan yakinlah..
Jika hari ini kita jatuh..
Pasti esok akan bangkit kembali..
Jatuh sekali tidak bermakna jatuh selamanya..

Memang benar kejayaan itu manis..
Tetapi ingatlah sahabatku !
Bangkit daripada kejatuhan itu adalah lebih manis..
La tahzan kerana dunia ini hanya sebuah persinggahan..
Kelak di akhirat sana yang abadi..
Moga persahabatan kita ini kekal hingga di akhirat sana..

p/s : sajak ini ku buat khas untuk para sahabatku..=)

Titas and Improvement . . .

Assalamualaikum,

                           TITAS stands for "Tamadun Islam dan Tamaduan Asia Selatan" . Last Thursday , it was the finale for this season *for titas only*. As early as 8.30 a.m , Kamil and I  drove our sports car and parked it in front of the DATC. (flash back : last night studying titas like tuttt -.-') . We walked past the other students (from other faculty) and they seem to be looking at us suspiciously. Kamil assume that they must be talking about us. (something like this : "Tu dia budak2 medik dah sampai , tengok dari jauh pon dah nampak skemanya -_____-" ) . Ignoring them , I opened my beg and reached for the titas's revisi book , while doing that Kamil gave me a few input. He looks kinda like "Misbun Sidek" coaching Chong Wei and I'm like "Chong Wei" listening attentively knowing that I only managed to read 3 chapters out of 6 chapter in that book. The exam runs for 2 hours  and with "guards" all over the place."One slip could mean death". HAHA. Please don't asked me how tough the questions is?

*p/s : Actually, we don't have a sports car* xD

Episode 2 : 6/1/2012

                           Today have been a really busy day with two SGS occurring on the same day. *Btw , SGS stands for small group session*. SGS Physiology and SGS Biochemistry. The sgs for biochemistry starts after Friday prayer. Thanks to the Rengit bus *a free bus that take students to the faculty and back to the residential college* , I managed to reach my faculty as early as an angry bird. HEHE. You know what?  Here's the "interesting" part , upon reaching the pantry (that belong to medic students). Kamil and I saw many people were crowding in front of the notice board. Immediately , I knew that the result for the 2nd progress test is out. *Gulp* . Searching for my matrix number thoroughly on the list and.. Ahah! found it! huh? I couldn't believe my eyes at first but then.. Alhamdullilah , I got a 'B' for my second progress test. Yeah , I'd achieved my target to get a "B" for my 2nd progress test and I'm satisfied with it. Next target : to get an A for my 3rd progress test (MSK module). The momentum is there and I could feel it now. This positive result is timely as it shows improvement.Yeah , 'Improvement' , the one thing that I consistently wanna get in my life. "Success is other thing but to improve is great".

p/s : to those who fails , do not feel upset because "It doesn't matter where you start , what matter is where you end". Let's us rise again for the next test my friend =)

p/s II : thanks for reading this entry.

"Thanks" shoutmix. . .

*Nothing is free in this world*

Assalamualaikum ,

                         Today , I had just realized that my chatbox is no longer functioning.*damn* Yeah , I'm talking about the chatbox on my side bar. When I pressed at the link given it says this :

Free service has to stop

Thanks for using ShoutMix for all these year. I have been providing free shoutboxes on the World Wide Web for over 7 years now. It wasn't long before I realized being 100% free is not sustainable. Just before ShoutMix's first birthday, it almost had to be closed.

ShoutMix has tried to work with the freemium business model ever since. Conversion rates were low with the first version. With the second version, things improved and I have had more paying customers. Fortunately people liked the service and started paying for more features.

With that in mind, the new third version was developed to make things better for free and paid users alike. It was developed with lots of feedback from users over the course of several years. Meanwhile my biggest goal remained: to improve conversion rate to keep things sustainable and profitable, all while making ShoutMix a really high quality product for everyone.

One of the most mentioned feedback was that the old free version was too restrictive. Others are less trivial, just make it better, more premium features, more powerful stuff, avatar support, real time push update, really good spam protection, support for really high traffic situations, etc.

Finally, in November 2011, the new version 3 was completed. It was launched successfully and very smoothly. It was a great moment.

During the first month since launch, the reception went really well. New sign ups are in the thousands daily. Just within a month, almost 50,000 users have signed up! Hundreds of thousands of messages posted. Over 10,000 users from Facebook. Generally, users loved the new version. The growth are massive.

So, what went bad?

The conversion rate did not go up. In fact it fell lower. Our stats show 99.93% of users either have no intention to upgrade or are just happy with our free service. Worst of all, some customers have actually stopped paying and switched to our free service! It may seems to be good news for everyone right now, but it is really bad news for all of us.

By offering too much with our free plan, we cannibalized our paid plans. Happy users did not make more paying customers. The projections are bad. Only 0.07% users are customers. These are the people who keep ShoutMix sustainable as a business. Business is the part making ShoutMix exists for everyone. If it keeps on going this way, ShoutMix will not be sustainable any more and will need to close down in the near future.

The freemium model is broken for us.

Some argued that ShoutMix can easily monetize its free service with ads. It has been tried, but the rates were terrible. Beautiful, unobstructive ads do not pay well for ShoutMix. We can probably do better with flashy popup ads, but no thank you. Our competitors do it with popup ads. But there is no way ShoutMix is going to commit such ugly sin.

ShoutMix is becoming more of a premium product. In fact it already has. ShoutMix is designed to be the best in the industry. With passion plus personal investments of time, money and labor of over 7 years, ShoutMix has outgrown the freemium model.

So where do we go from here?

I have two choices. One, allow ShoutMix to become unsustainable. This is bad news for everyone. The other choice is to stop our free service. It is becoming obvious that this is where ShoutMix should go. And so, ShoutMix is not going to be free any more.

Existing users will be able to continue using their accounts at no cost right now. The transition will begin within a few weeks. Eventually, users with free accounts will need to switch to a paying plan or stop using the service. The date is set at January 1, 2012. After this date, free accounts will stop working unless upgraded to a paid plan.

The good news is that ShoutMix will be available for only $0.99/month and will be available effective immediately. For our old version (the Classic) it will only be available in Premium package which costs approximately $1.67/month.

Existing customers are unaffected by all these changes. In fact, ShoutMix is going to be really awesome for our current and future customers. Our focus will be to make paying customers extremely happy and they will get 100% of our resources. If you are one of our customers, things are just going to get a lot better for you.

ShoutMix has always been a product with great passion. It is just unfortunate that it did not work out as a free product. We all have to move on. And ShoutMix will continue to be the most affordable, high quality and premium live chat software that everyone can use and love.

p/s : Now, I need to find another free chatbox. In the meantime , for those who like to comment please do so in any of my entry . Thank you . =)

Crossroad. . .

Assalamualaikum ,

                     Yeah it has been a while since I last updated my blog *cliche*. By the way , I'm now in the MSK (Musculoskeletal) module. Things have not went according to plan or rather I didn't plan at all. *total loser* . I realized that my recent post have not been that positive. It's as though I've lost my motivation. Unfortunately , It is true , I've lost it. The enthusiasm that I had in me at the beginning is slowly fading. There are a lot of things to remember yet there are so little time. Final exam is coming nearer day by day..(5 weeks left).*I felt so left behind*

                      I'm sorry if you guys have to read this but it is true life as a medical student is tough. When I say "Tough" , I really mean it . no kidding . I realized there are so many things that I've yet to cover while the others have already done that. I wouldn't like to speculate things but they do leave me behind about a miles away.*Based on my point of view*  ("They" refers to my other colleagues).

                  Indeed it is my mistakes after all , take things for granted and like to revise topics on the eleventh hour. The disadvantage of being at home for me and few others is when we are at home , we tend to leave our books behind. We are busy doing other things rather than doing our revision. For example , as for me , when I'm at home , I would always give my full attention to my family. Family first . But doing that means I'll sacrifice my revision time. You see , It is like you are at a crossroad and you have to choose one of the route.Plus, I'm trying to prove that medical students do not always carries their books with them wherever they go.*It is proven if only I've got a proper planning i.e. proper time management*

               Despite that , I've not lost my passion to become a doctor one day. That passion have drive me to go through this thick time and push myself back to the so-called "optimum level".To do that I need to have PROPER TIME MANAGEMENT and DESIRE to succeed. After going through the General Module (GM) , now I began to cope with the stress and pressure of being a medical student. I know what I have to do to rectify my shortcomings. "The biggest enemy of you is your own self" . *Ya Allah , give me the strength and the will to do what I've to do and guide me through this crucial moment.*

New Year Resolution:


1. To change my attitude to become a better person. (hablum minallah wa hablu minannas)

2. To have a proper time management.

3. To score no less than a "B" for every progress test.

4. To get an "A" for this semester. (to score higher and maintain consistency for other semester.)

5. To do revision and assignment as early as possible. (priority)

6. To be a better son , better grandchildren , better nephew , better cousin , better mukmin , better friend , better student and a better person.

7. To be more motivated and confident.

8. To improve my interpersonal skills.

9. To be a successful person and being able to inspire others.

10. To get married after receiving my degree scroll *5 years from now* 

*New Year Resolution*

                     

 p/s : I do like to spread joy to others by smiling but deep inside nobody knows except Allah :'(

p/s II : Yes ! 9 things that I need to achieve for my new year resolution. *The no.10 is not my main priority right now considering how I'm yet to have a stable life*  =)

p/s III : to all my colleagues , let's us struggle to achieve our goal that is to become a good doctor for the betterment of the Ummah.

p/s IV :thanks for reading this entry. Happy New Year !~ (^_^)

                      

Wordless Wednesday : Life Goes On~

"Hidup ini terkadang terlalu deras~"

p/s : will be updating my blog soon.. =)

Blog dan Tamadun. . .

Suatu Ketika Dahulu...

Assalamualaikum,

                      Entri kali ini akan merungkai satu persatu persoalan yang bermain-main di benak fikiran kalian. Ya , sepertimana tajuknya Blog dan Tamadun , aku akan menulis serba sedikit tentang bagaimana blog ini boleh wujud atau lebih tepat lagi sejarah kewujudan blog ni. (Pengaruh TITAS telah menyebabkan aku tulis entri ni..haha).

Sejarah Awal Kewujudan Blog :

                      Hmm..kisahnya bermula begini....(jika versi bahasa inggerisnya - It all started when...) sila sambung ayat di atas tidak kurang daripada 500 patah perkataan..HAHA.. (Ketawa sopan).

Okay , berbalik kepada tajuk kita tadi , blog ini telah didaftarkan semenjak Oktober 2008 lagi. Namun begitu , entri pertamanya bertajuk "Taufiq's homecoming" hadir pada 7 November 2008. Maka dari detik dan saat itu secara rasminya aku menjadi seorang blogger yang tampan lagi macho.

Pencetus Inspirasi :

                     Jadi siapakah yang telah menjadi sumber inspirasi untuk aku mula menulis blog ini? *drumroll* Terdapat dua orang sebenarnya , mereka adalah Siti Nadia binti Hasnan dan Nabil Harith bin Mohd Najib. Kedua-dua adalah sahabat baik aku semenjak dari sekolah menengah lagi. Persahabatan kami menjadi lebih akrab ketika kami memasuki tingkatan tiga (3 Jaya).Pada perkiraan aku ketika itu ,gaya penulisan mereka yang kreatif , menarik dan matang  yang telah membuatkan aku tertarik untuk menulis blog. (masing-masing kembang hidunglah lepas ni..hahaha)

Pemilihan Nama Blog :

                 Bagi pemilihan nama blog ini sebenarnya berlaku sejak akhir tingkatan tiga lagi. Waktu tu aku dan nabil tengah berjalan-jalan lepas habis makan dekat kantin sekolah menuju  ke bilik darjah. Then suddenly , it strikes me...ZAPPP!! "hijrahseorangmukmin.blogspot.com." Sebenarnya , nabil harith lah yang sedang ketika itu bercerita tentang blog dia dan menghasut mengajak aku untuk berkecimpung dalam dunia blogging ni.

Penggunaan Bahasa :


                   Pada mulanya blog ini di tulis dalam bahasa Inggeris supaya ianya setaraf dengan bahasa antarabangsa dan mampu untuk menembusi pasaran luar negara. (gaya macam nak jual produk pulak..haha). Kemudiannya , setelah mengambil kira sudut-sudut tertentu dan untuk memperkasakan lagi bahasa ibunda , blog ini telah bertukar menjadi dwibahasa yakni akan ada entri dalam bahasa inggeris dan juga bahasa melayu. Entri pertama dalam bahasa melayu ialah entri khas : Ihya Ramadhan pada 29 julai 2011 , di mana aku telah menyatakan hasrat untuk merombak bahasa yang digunakan di dalam blog ini.

Misi dan Visi Blog :


                     Antara kandungan yang terdapat di dalam blog ini merangkumi isu-isu semasa (dalam dan luar negara) , pengalaman hidup aku , nilai-nilai islamik , pendapat peribadi , erti persahabatan , kehidupan sebagai seorang pelajar perubatan , politik (neutral) dan sebagainya. (Anda boleh lihat dan baca entri dalam blog ini untuk mengetahui lebih lanjut). The most important things is "I'm here to inspire and to be inspired". -Taufiq-

Fans dan Follower :


                         Jumlah terkumpul setakat ini ialah 284 follower...hm..not so bad lah kan. *sedapkan hati*. Matlamat utama penubuhan blog juga tercapai kerana statistik menunjukkan masyarakat luar negara juga turut mengunjungi blog ini cuma tak jadi follower je tetapi tak mengapa , mungkin mereka menjadi "silent reader" seperti kebanyakan pelawat-pelawat yang mengunjungi blog ini. Walau apapun , aku ingin mengucapkan ribuan terima kasih kerana tidak henti-henti memberi sokongan dan dokongan walaupun di sebalik tabir. Really appreciate it and kalau boleh berilah input dan komen-komen anda yang membina supaya blog ini boleh "improve" lagi pada masa hadapan.
(^_^)

Kaitan Blog dan Tamadun :

                  Dewasa ini , kita dikejutkan dengan media baru iaitu blog , yang telah melonjak naik sebagai wadah yang amat berkuasa. Hal ini dapat di lihat bagaimana kewujudan blog-blog ini yang telah menjadi media alternatif menggantikan media perdana seperti surat khabar dan televisyen mahupun radio. The popular uprising of the Egyptian people can be a good example. Contoh lain ialah Pilihan raya ke dua belas (PRU-12) dimana parti politik pembangkang telah berjaya merampas beberapa buah negeri di Malaysia dan juga telah mengurangkan majoriti 2/3 parlimen yang dimiliki sebelum ini oleh kerajaan. Pihak pembangkang telah menggunakan media alternatif seperti blog untuk menyampaikan mesej dan manifesto mereka. 

                 Selain itu , kewujudan blog-blog ini telah mengubah pemikiran rakyat Malaysia yang menjadi semakin matang dan celik IT. Manakala , isu luar negara seperti isu pencerobahan rejim Zionas terhadap penduduk Palestin juga dapat disampaikan dengan pantas. Perkembangan peristiwa letupan di loji Nuklear Fukushima , info sukan seperti kemenangan pasukan Malaysia baru-baru ini dalam perlawanan bola sepak Sukan SEA , dan sebagainya dapat diketahui lebih awal melalui blog-blog ini. Pendek kata , blogger seperti wartawan bebas yang melaporkan apa sahaja isu yang berlaku samada dalam dan luar negara.

                 Kesimpulannya, kewujudan blog mampu untuk mencorak tamadun sesuatu bangsa dan negara.Oleh itu , aku ingin sekali menjadikan blog aku ini sebagai sesuatu yang berfaedah dan bukannya blog picisan.

Latarbelakang Empunya Blog :


                  Last sekali baru teringat nak memperkenalkan diri..haha..okay, nama di beri Ahmad Taufiq Bin Hanif Salihudin. Dilahirkan pada 15 September 1992 . Berasal dari Klang , Selangor. Mendapat pendidikan awal di Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Tengku Ampuan Rahimah (STAR). Sedang melanjutkan pelajaran dalam jurusan Perubatan dan Pembedahan (MBBS) di UiTM Shah Alam. Masih single and available..HAHA. Cintakan Tanah Air dan masih mencari hidayah Allah S.W.T. Seorang yang optimis , berkeyakinan , sentiasa bermuhasabah diri , lucu (ye ke? haha) ,benci kepada racism , assabiah dan seangkatan dengannya , percaya bahawa perpaduan di dalam negara dapat di capai berteraskan prinsip-prinsip Islam. Jika ingin mengetahui lebih lanjut boleh lah mengenali diri ini. Sekian.  Wallahu a'lam.

fokus kepada kain samping yang senget..haha
