make THEM proud (",)

there was a time that i wished i can rewind the past. a time where i still know nothing about morse code. a time where my tears are rolling on my cheeck learning CW with my strict sifu, 9M2GET, a time where i can break the code sent by my CW coach, 9M2YAS. frankly, i missed my CW classes, and sometimes i am eager to be at home before 10 p.m and suddenly i realized that my classes was over for the past 11 days.
making people proud of you was something that u always dream of. i was beginning losing my faith when i only copied 12 words instead of 36 in a few lessons with 9M2YAS. it was indeed a horrified situation for me. i started to think that this is not my stuff, i created thousands of reasons to tell my husband that i wanted to quit, i prayed to God to released me from this misery, and i'm not going to Cyberjaya because i was afraid that i might let them down.
But still, the class went on, the thousands reasons was shut in my mouth, and without i noticed it, i was preparing for the battle in Cyberjaya. And it all just because of one word:

DETERMINATION.

THE MAKING OF A GREAT HAM

I didn't quite know Hairi/9M2GET when I first met him in Perlis. Hairi approached me one day after the lecture on GPRS asking for my prayer as he would be sitting a CW test together with a few more persons including 9M2YAS. He said he wanted a T-Shirt like what I presented to Azman. I wished him all the best.
As soon as he passed is Morse he came on 7.015 to work me. So was Illias/ 9M2YAS. After a few sessions he told me that his wife would also sit for the exam. I started to design TShits for 9M2YAS and 9M2GET once I found their CW ws reaching my award speed of 18 wpm. When the time came I went to Arau to send the T-Shirt. Hairi told me his wife ability in copying and showed me her style of jotting the characters listened. The teacher was 9M2YAS.
There were several students. The regular class went on 144.625 MHZ. I can't hear them from Alor Setar. When I worked Hairi I was so sure that she would also try to copy. My formula is simple; if she could copy my sending at that speed she would surely passed her test. But as a lady and a mother as well a teacher she is always busy. She did not believe that she could do it. CW is not for ladies. But Hairi motivate her saying it should be easy for her as a linguistic teacher.
9M2YAS said the pass was not due to his coaching. It came from within. She organized herself in learning. She systematized it in her way. What the coach said was in fact a mirror of himself. He studied hard too in his own way. It was the belief and the guts.
I promised her that I will present the T-Shirt as soon as she pass, no need to work me at 18 wpm CW. Now we are all waiting for the ticket and in the meantime Hairi is erecting a taller tower.
What I am looking at is the positive thinking stuff and the attitudes. People who are willing to venture and fight against the odds. You survive one and you survive the other. The rate of survival is higher than those who only hope for helps without any effort to help themselves.
The battle is not over yet. I asked them to come on CW using English. Hairi use to work me bi-lingual. 50-50. 50 Malay and 50 English. Now he comes on 100%. I want the chat to be understood by international community who listen. There are plenty of people listening to CW chats and copying them as well. But there will be days the QSOs will be in Malay 80% and 20% English. When I worked Don YB6LD 90% of our CW QSOs were in English. All rag chew.
Great Hams have stories to tell on how they learned Morse. And they keep all their notes from the time they copy nonsense until they were able to copy just a single word and shouted 'Eureka !!!'.

buku latihan CW saya...

(kertas jawapan asal CW test). kalau ada sesapa yang perasan, i copied with a unique way, iaitu dengan cara menulis dari atas ke bawah, dan 9M2GET selalu marah sebab dia kata "oja, you bazir masa kalau tulis macam ni". but as always, aku buat tak tau je..hahah

bukan sekadar omongan kosong

masih terbayang raut wajah 9m2GET dan 9m2YAS sewaktu mereka mengetahui bahawa aku lulus CW. senyuman itu terbawa-bawa hingga ke dalam kereta dan menemani perjalanan kami selama 9 jam. nafasku yang tersekat sekat hampir 5 bulan kembali normal. kejayaan ini aku kongsi bersama sparing partnerku, 9w2ZRZ (zuri). syukurlah dia juga berjaya. senyum kelatnye sudah hilang. memang terbukti dia mekanik yang luar biasa, full of determination.congrats my friend..
mengimbas kembali detik berada di dalam auditorium,i smiled to myself. walau kail hanya sejengkal, lautan yang luas mampu juga ku renang. sekali lagi thanx for the doas/supports.i am who i am today because of the chance i made yesterday. and the best memories are the ones you cant explain, you just had to be there!

menjelang CW test..

malam bukan lagi seperti malam2 yang biasa...dalam tempoh beberapa hari lagi, aku akan bertarung dengan bunyi dit dan dah. the performance was quite good.9m2get and 9m2yas said that i've reache the level that they've expected. betul ke?dunno..maybe yes since i dont realise it. there's still a lot 2 learn, practice to level up my endurance.
i wish i will succeed, i wish i'll make everyone proud of me,i wish everything will go smoothly as everyone had prayed hard for me, i wish i'll not fool myself on that day and i wish that all my wishes come true. thanks for all the doas/prayers/supports. may Allah bless us all. Amin n wish me luck (",)
