Selamat menghadapi peperiksaan akhir semester kepada semua. Berdoa, Berusaha, Tawakkal. Semoga berjaya semua.

Sekian, terima kasih.

Nasib tidak menyebelahi para pendaki pada hari Sabtu. Sunrise yang diidamkan mereka tidak kelihatan pada hari tersebut. Hanya kabus tebal dan air hujan yang menyambut kedatangan mereka di sana. Jarak penglihatan pada hari tersebut juga tidak jauh kerana dibatasi dengan kabus tebal selepas hujan. Namun, udara segar pada pagi hari dapat meredakan kekecewaan mereka.

Lain pula yang berlaku pada mereka yang berekspedisi pada hari Ahad. Matahari yang memancar terik dan ketiadaan kabus menyerlahkan lagi keindahaan panorama Bukit Broga pada hari tersebut. Kelihatan kumpulan awan di langit biru serta lalang-lalang yang hidup segar di kawasan bukit berkenaan mengamit perhatian mereka. Sesi bergambar tidak dilepaskan untuk diabadikan di dalam kamera yang mereka bawa.

Gambar-gambar yang di paparkan dapat menceritakan apa yang berlaku untuk dua hari berkenaan. Hingga bertemu lagi pada ekspedisi akan datang. Selamat berjuang menghadapi peperiksaan akhir semester.

Assalaamu’alaikum. Firstly, I would like to congratulate the new mainboard of ARCIIUM for being appointed to facilitate and run the organization for this term. We hope that you can further improve the quality and effectiveness of the organization while keeping track of our mission and vision. We are not hoping for more bombastic or frequent programs but just programs with better quality and achievements.

I hope that the new management will not be single track minded and focus on one type of program but instead, organize various types of programs to cater to the different needs and demands of the members. Our members are very diversified in terms of ability, interest, fitness, strength and talent. To be able to cater to all these elements won’t be an easy job especially when the authoritative body controlling us is not very cooperative but I hope that the new management will try it’s best to meet demands and satisfy the whole organization.

Do not get angry. Do not get emotional. Try to work with them instead of working for them. It may be difficult but humans are only humans and human thought and decision making can be manipulated. Think and decide wisely and if you push the right buttons, what we aim for can be achieved. Being angry and emotional will not only slow down our progress but it will also limit if not totally cut off the amount of control that we have over them. Remember the key words; work with instead of work for.

Programs. Instead of just attending a program and having a good time, why don’t we try add some substance in it so that when we are asked about the program, we’ll have a better answer than “We did it. We went there, we did it, then we came back.” We are intellectuals. What do we have to show for our programs? Photographs, shirts and certificates. Come on, that is what the rest of the world is doing. Everyone can achieve that. Why don’t we bring ourselves a cut above the rest of them. Get more out of the same program than the rest of them. With something to show, we are at an advantage because we have more to offer than our competitors.

Members. We need more members. I’ve been looking at the same faces for too long. Why do we keep getting the same people to join our programs? It would be nice to see some fresh new faces in the club. How do we achieve this? Promotion? Diversified programs? Maybe they are afraid to join us because they feel intimidated by us. That is unknown. This phenomenon is left to clear itself out.

Let’s just pray that with the new management, the club will see some improvement over all the previous terms. May Allah open up our hearts and the hearts of others so that the flow of our club can see an improvement and prove to other parties that we can do what we claim we can do.

While we’re celebrating Hari Raya Aidil Fitri, everyone were busy with preparing for the big makan-makan tomorrow, we have launched a new website design for arciium.com, right on 1st Syawal

In this design (it is not actually my design, I just combine the design from here and there), we keep the main features like Online Users, ChatBox, Forum and RSS feeds. We have a few main features that surely will enhance your browsing experience. Make sure to check it out.

• Featured content. (We will post latest program report here)
• Featured video (Hope someone can help with videos. Any video that can tell people what we do)
• Twitter search. (This widget will search twitter bloggosphere for any entry that contain arciium)
• Tag Cloud
• Share this article (You can see there are few social network icons the bottom of each article page. You can share any article in any social network listed there. This is a useful tool for event promotion in the future.)

Hope everyone were happy with what we have for now. I did try my best, to find some time for this, and this is as far as I can give for now. From time to time we will make this website a better place to hangout

* Credit to Arif Sukarno, I steal your yellow icon in the header from your design here.

Dengan Aildilfitri yang bakal menjelma, arciium.com mengucapkan selamat menyambut Hari Raya Aidilfitri kepada semua pelayar website dan umat Islam seluruh dunia amnya.
