If Today Was Your Last Day

Songwriter: Kroeger, Chad

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are

So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?

And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

Think again =)

Mungkin bahan di bawah berguna kepada kita suatu masa
nanti. “Ubat penenang” dari Al-Quran ni tak ditakwil lagi kemujarapannya..KENAPA AKU DIUJI?
Apakah manusia itu mengira bahwa mereka dibiarkan (saja)
mengatakan:”Kami telah beriman”, sedang mereka tidak diuji lagi? Dan
sesungguhnya Kami telah menguji orang-orang sebelum mereka, maka
sesungguhnya Allah mengetahui orang-orang yang benar dan
sesungguhnya Dia mengetahui orang-orang yang dusta ~ Surah Al-Ankabut
ayat 2-3

KENAPA AKU TIDAK MENDAPATKAN APA YANG AKU IDAM-IDAMKAN?
Boleh jadi kamu membenci sesuatu, padahal ia amat baik bagimu, dan
boleh jadi (pula) kamu menyukai sesuatu padahal ia amat buruk bagimu;
Allah mengetahui, sedang kamu tidak mengetahui ~ Surah Al-Baqarah
ayat 216

KENAPA UJIAN SEBERAT INI?
Allah tidak membebani seseorang melainkan sesuai dengan
kesanggupannya ~ Surah Al-Baqarah ayat 286

RASA FRUSTASI?
Janganlah kamu bersikap lemah, dan janganlah (pula) kamu bersedih
hati, padahal kamulah orang-orang yang paling tinggi (derajatnya),
jika kamu orang-orang yang beriman ~ Surah Al-Imran ayat 139

BAGAIMANA AKU HARUS MENGHADAPINYA?
Hai orang-orang yang beriman, bersabarlah kamu dan kuatkanlah
kesabaranmu dan tetaplah bersiap siaga (di perbatasan negerimu) dan
bertaqwalah kepada Allah supaya kamu beruntung. ~ Surah Al-Imran
ayat 200

Jadikanlah sabar dan shalat sebagai penolongmu. Dan sesungguhnya yang
demikian itu sungguh berat, kecuali bagi orang-orang yang khusyu’, ~
Surah Al-Baqarah ayat 45

APA YANG AKU DAPAT DARI SEMUA INI?
Sesungguhnya Allah telah membeli dari orang-orang mu’min, diri dan
harta mereka dengan memberikan surga untuk mereka. ~ Surah At-Taubah
ayat 111

KEPADA SIAPA AKU BERHARAP?
Cukuplah Allah bagiku; tidak ada Ilah selain Dia. Hanya kepada-Nya
aku bertawakal ~ Surah At-Taubah ayat 129

AKU TAK DAPAT BERTAHAN LAGI!!!!!
..dan jangan kamu berputus asa dari rahmat Allah. Sesungguhnya tiada
berputus asa dari rahmat Allah, melainkan kaum yang kafir. ~ Surah
Yusuf ayat 87

Read SloowwLyyy~

To those who have studied computer sciences or computer programming..lol...remember the syntax? the codes? the Boolean? here's another way of using them..

to make sure u understand what u read follow this k....(if u understand, that is..)


WHILE there is a next sentence to read, DO:
BEGIN (* while *)
Read it, SLOWLY;
IF you do not understand it, THEN
BEGIN (* if *)
re-read the previous material, SLOWLY;
re-read the incomprehensible sentence, SLOWLY;
IF you still don't understand it, THEN
ask a fellow student to explain it;
IF you still don't understand it, THEN
ask your Teaching Assistant (TA) to explain it;
IF you still don't understand it, THEN
ask me;
IF you are in an upper-level course & you still don't understand it, THEN
write a paper about it (!)
END (* if *)
END; (* while *)


This algorithm has three major advantages:

1. It forces you to actively think about each sentence you read before you go on to read the next one.

2. It slows you down, so that you don't read past the point at which you don't understand. This is especially important in mathematical and scientific subjects.

3. It can help you get help from your teacher, because you can show your teacher exactly where you got lost. It is always much better to show your teacher exactly what it is that you don't understand than it is to just say that you don't understand the material.

4. Note that it also provides you an opportunity to interact with your instructors and fellow students!

some lecturers dnt understand wot students r goin thru..

hurm..TIME is TIME

It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up.....
Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow..but will it be the same?
Time is the most undefinable yet paradoxical of things, when the past is gone, the future has not come yet, and the present becomes the past even while we attempt to define it, and, like the flash of lightning, at once exists and expires..

i'll just be me?

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow.
If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder.
If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow.
If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile.
But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. ~Henri Nouwen

bcoz today i feel so damn lazy i keep pasting other ppl's saying..but its suit of what im gonna say anyway..a simple reminder.. ;)
