my practical involvement

assalamualaikum :)

Before i join the TIC organization (Kelantan Tourist Information Centre), i don't even know much and never went to any events related to the Kelantanese traditional games or activities even i am a kelantanese, huhu..maybe its due to my parents do not expose much about that to me and it seems not essential at all to them..

btw, here are some events that i have joined..its really enjoyable indeed.. :)

the first one is shadow puppet show or it is called 'wayang kulit'.

it was held at the cultural centre in Kota Bharu, just around the corner of TIC office. it was started around 9pm and ended at 12pm.

the photos are not really clear though :(

wayang kulit is one of the unique and indigenous theatre shows which use shadow and light base to express the stories. the casting is made up from the carving of buffalo skin and attached to bamboos. and when it is put behind the white fabric and under a lamp as a source og light, the shadow will be display on fabric skin.

the stories of "wayang kulit" are normally based on the classic tale and have moral value that can be followed by all walks of life. it might use the traditional languages and melody based on the stories. it includes the stories from India classic poem " the Mahabhrata " and "Ramayana" which are very famous.

this play which has been generated from one generation to generation is normally performed at night during gatherings and fairs. the puppeteer, called "Tok Dalang" is the main performer who manipulates the "Wayang Kulit" puppets while narrating the story.

We nOt KnOw...Now We KnoW.. :)

It such a coincidence for us
to be known each other
We almost strangers even we've
met each other a long time already
But the relationship that was
built as friend is surprisingly
Make us closer from time to time

It is from the sincerity to
support each other,
help each other,
treat each other with concern and warmth,
share stories whether it is sad or happy,
exchanging point of views and nice pictures,
learning language,
webcaming and chatting till late night,
spending precious time,
giving piece of advices on anything while making us boost both of our spirit...

It is really nice when come to think of it
has someone who accompanied us
when we come from different personalities...
to complete each other
where it can make us strong to face the world
which full with the test from the Al-Mighty

May Allah S.W.T bless us..
Amen..

This is not a piece about me
But it is about the ship between me n mi :)

Tie in Life

Humble...
being humble person is good
because that attitude is being praise and like
by all walks of life

Unlike many other creatures..
the feeling of being hate
could merely breed more hatred in a person
Ultimately...
would destroy the heart
and life in the world and hereafter

Because in so many moments
the moments of being concerned
were the most precious things
ever happen in someone's life..

By being humble could receive someone's else concern
and hatred will never drop
in their entire intelligence eternally...
InsyaAllah... :)


much sincere,
nurliyana aziz

sight seeing at kb mall with my junior :)

my pic with maher zain,hehe :)

after i have finished my work at 3.30 on Thursday, i went to KB mall by walking with my junior,wawa. it is quite far from my practical place but it is fun walking while chatting with her. she is my junior at kpm.whenever she has problem about study,friends or anything, she'll come to me and i'll try to solve it and she is really nice to me. and i'll try to treat her better :)

we went to have a lunch because i was soooo hungry. nasi sup tulang there is quite nice but I'm not goin to eat it again,hehe..and then we walking around kb mall. we went to bookstore to look for books and wawa wanted to buy sticker for her new diary. i'm just looking at all those books coz i dun have any budget to buy new books... :( but, i'm not finish read eclipse yet, so it is ok..hehe.

after that, we come across with CD shop. its been a long time that i want to give maher zain cd as a present for my mother. she can listen to his beautiful songs in her car and i hope she'll like it all those songs. hehe :)

then, at 5.30...we went home..wawa followed me home to get to know my rent room. at 8pm, before her brother pick her up, we went to roti canai restaurant to immerse ourselves with the tasty of roti canai..unfortunately, her brother rushing so we did not manage to eat it together. i tapau it and eat in my room with my roommate. however, it is not as delicious as the people said..not quite delicious..huhu..

being used to be a government civil servant :)

its been a week that i have been used to walk across three buildings and cross two busy streets to get to my industrial training place which is Kelantan Tourist Information Centre which located near the roundabout of big watch and state museum, more specific in Sultan Ibrahim street. it took around five minutes walking from my rent room to there and i'm a bit afraid of crossing the streets because the streets are very busy like bees especially when i go and back from my work.

at first, i feel really nervous to work there because i think i'm not ready to face the working world like adapting with the organization, their employees, the relationships between collegues and boss and so much more. however, after a week working there..i think i can adapt to it very well because all the employees are really nice and warmth with the new interns at their organization.

there are six interns or practical students for the time being including me at TIC who are from UITM Dungun, Izham n Ikhwan and from Politeknik Merlimau Melaka, Sue Tomey. three of them are the diploma students which taking diploma in tourism management. whereas, me,mek miza n kak fatin are from the same college. we can get used to each other very well and working together as a team. we do everything that we can do to assist the organization activity and studying simultaneously.

now, i'm working on map of kota bharu, interesting places in kelantan and any attractiveness of kelantan like traditional games, foods, and so much more. i also make the directions to go to some interesting places like genting highland, perhentian island and thailand using different kind of vehicles. it is easy when i'm going to entertain foreign tourists by using the directions that i've made. it is a very good experience for me to talk and entertain the foreign tourists. but, i'm not talk much, i merely add a bit..hehe..i'm just admire with che lan because he can interact and communicate very well with the foreign tourists from Europe, German, Australian, France and so much more. besides, he is a great cooker..his name is stated in the Malaysia Toursit Guided book.

emmm, here i wanna share a few pictures at my working places.. :)

Tomorrow
There will be tomorrow
The day when people tend to change
They try to reminisce
The thing that happened yesterday
To recognize the mistakes and sins and
Tend to vanish it
To endeavour changes for the better

Tomorrow
Thought that it might change
Till......people suddenly realize
That they have changed without knowing
The moments and challenges
That they have gone
Through....

Tomorrow
There will be the chances
To the people that
Try to change
To be the best and
Try to treat people better and
Then they will treat you better
Than you do.....


much luv,

a new step to a new reality

have you ever wondering how a child can be so much intelligent when it comes to a problem that might affect her lifetime?

something that possible to make her suffer to her whole life?

it is not enough for us to merely see her serious matter but cannot feel it.

but, it is very useless for us for trying to feel it

because she is the only one who can feel it..

it is really painful and hurt so much..

the burden that she carry on her shoulder is countless

but, she can manage it..with all the ways that she could to think

in the age of 20..
