Assalamualaikum semua. Selesai sudah tugas menjadi penjaga stesen sempena Kejohanan Merentas Desa Sekolah Rendah.

Kali ni aku berkesempatan turun padang bantu sekolah anak menjadi Sukarelawan untuk pastikan kelancaran program. Kalau nak harapkan cikgu semata-mata macam kesian je.

Memang mencabar ya bertugas di waktu musim kemarau macam sekarang ni. Aku yang menjadi penjaga stesen tapi tak berlari pun terasa penat dia, apatah lagi anak-anak yang menyertai kejohanan merentas desa.

Bila jadi penjaga stesen memang akan berjumpa pelbagai ragam. Ada anak-anak yang semangat berlari nak habiskan larian dan ada yang berlari macam bersiar-siar je lagaknya.

Agaknya yang semangat berlari ni memang dah biasa beriadah dengan keluarga. Jadi setakat nak habiskan larian satu pusingan taman tiada masalah bagi dia.

 

Kejohanan Merentas Desa Sekolah Rendah

Ada juga anak murid yang sampai muntah-muntah dan nak pengsan. Risau strok haba. Jadi sebagai penjaga stesen memang kena sentiasa alert dan beri bantuan sewajarnya.

Macam biasa, setiap anak murid yang lalu aku akan pesan supaya betulkan pernafasan semasa berlari dan berjalan jika tak mampu. Kesihatan tu lebih utama.

Ikut apa yang dikongsi oleh guru yang bertugas bersama; syarat untuk merentas desa, jarak larian yang perlu dihabiskan ialah sekurang-kurangnya empat kilometer.

 

Kategori Merentas Desa - Larian Mengikut Peringkat Umur

Ilmu baru juga untuk aku. Jarak larian dibahagikan kepada beberapa peringkat. Track larian untuk setiap tahap juga berbeza. Mana maunya kalau semua sama.

Berlari ikut kapasiti murid. Jadi pihak sekolah bahagikan kepada empat kategori. Kategori Pra PPKI, Kategori Murid Bawah 8 tahun, Kategori Murid Bawah 10 tahun dan Kategori Murid Bawah 12 Tahun.

Murid Pra dan PPKI larian di track taman mainan berbeza dengan murid lain dengan jarak 400-meter sahaja. Comel je anak-anak berlari.

Untuk kategori yang lain pula semua berlari di taman bersama-sama dengan orang awam. Murid Bawah 8 tahun kena habiskan satu pusingan taman.

Murid Bawah 10 tahun perlu habiskan dua pusingan padang dan Murid Bawah 12 tahun pula kena habiskan larian sebanyak tiga pusingan taman.

 

Jadi Sukarelawan Bahagian Pengangkutan

Selain bertugas menjadi penjaga stesen aku juga bertanggungjawab menjaga keselamatan anak-anak untuk bahagian pengangkutan.

Ikutkan ibu bapa perlu menghantar dan mengambil anak di lokasi merentas desa. Memandangkan kejohanan merentas adalah pada hari bekerja, pihak sekolah faham akan kekangan ibu bapa.

Oleh sebab sekolah mempunyai hubungan kerjasama yang baik dengan Pusat Latihan Kor Polis Tentera Diraja (Pulapot), Kem Genting klang jadi merasalah murid naik trak askar.

 

Paling penting kena pastikan anak-anak berada dalam keadaan selamat. Keadaan terkawal tapi realiti dia memang kena gagah nak naik trak askar.

Memang terhuyung hayang dan bergegar kuat bila trak bergerak. Penting pastikan pengiring sentiasa alert.

Pernah ada kes anak murid jatuh dari trak dan sebabkan kematian. Ikut khabar angin katanya pengiring yang bertugas terlelap semasa berada di atas trak.  

Asbab kematian tapi cukup untuk dijadikan peringatan.

Bukan setakat anak-anak je yang gembira, kami sebagai pengiring pun teruja dapat naik trak Askar. Pengalaman manis bagi aku. Lepas ni boleh bercerita dengan anak-anak yang mama dia pernah naik trak askar.

PIBG Hulurkan Bantuan Ringankan Beban

Semenjak menjadi AJK PIBG memang banyak aktiviti sekolah yang aku ‘terpaksa’ libatkan diri. Memang itulah natijah dia kalau dah dilantik dan pegang jawatan.

Suka atau tidak itu memang tanggungjawab perlu digalas. Waktu awal pencalonan menjadi AJK dulu memang dah dapat bayangkan kena bantu pihak sekolah.

Hulurkan bantuan untuk meringankan beban demi kecemerlangan anak-anak. Itulah tugas utama PIBG. Ikutkan sekolah anak tidaklah besar mana. Jumlah murid di bawah 500 orang dan hanya satu sesi.

Dalam PIBG aku menyandang jawatan Biro Masyarakat dan Komunikasi. Dilantik pun sebab aku dah biasa dengan kerja-kerja hebahan di media social jadi memang berguna sekolah untuk war-war kan maklumat penting.

Alhamdulillah seronok dapat membantu walaupun kadang-kadang rasa tak cukup masa.

 

Kesimpulan

Alhamdulillah Kejohanan Merentas Desa Sekolah Rendah berlangsung dengan meriah. Tiada catatan rekod kecederaan teruk. Setakat jatuh dan alami luka kecil sahaja. Selesai semua semalam seperti yang di rancang pada pukul 12 tengahari.

 

Bercakap Dengan Diri Sendiri Sebagai Terapi Diri

Assalamualaikum. Hari ini aku terdetik nak kongsi apa yang jadi pada diri aku awal pagi tadi. Aku bercakap dengan diri sendiri.

Yes. Kedengaran macam orang gila. Tapi itu yang berlaku. Seronok dan puas hati. Sebelum ni aku rasa, idea bercakap dengan diri sendiri ialah satu perbuatan mengarut.

Anak aku pernah buat dan aku pernah tegur sebab aku risau dia ada masalah dan tak mahu kongsi dengan aku.

Waktu tu aku pelik, tertanya-tanya aku ibu yang gagal ke? Kenapa anak aku tak mahu meluahkan dekat aku? Aku emak yang loser ke? Atau aku judge dia terlalu awal ke?

Semuanya akan make sense bila kau alami ianya sendiri. Trust me. 

 

Bercakap Dengan Diri Sendiri Sebagai Terapi Diri

Tapi bila aku buat dan alami sendiri, aku rasa macam lega sangat. akhirnya Tuhan izinkan aku rasa apa anak aku rasa.

Bercakap dengan diri sendiri adalah moment kau berkomunikasi dengan fikiran dan kau cuba settlekan perasaan sendiri.

Realitinya orang yang paling kenal diri adalah diri kita sendiri. Gagalnya kita nak push diri capai apa kita nak boleh jadi disebabkan kita sendiri tak faham diri.

Nampak pelik kalau kita bercakap dengan diri sendiri dan waktu tu ada orang di sekeliling. Jadi lebih baik cari tempat yang kau rasa selesa.

Bilik air adalah tempat aku meluahkan perasaan. Sambil aku bersihkan diri sambil itu aku meluah apa yang perlu.

Perangai aku tak suka lama-lama dalam bilik air jadi sesi meluah jadi padat dan ringkas. Ada orang suka menyanyi dalam bilik air, aku pula bercakap dalam bilik air.

 

 

Marah Dan Bercakap Dengan Diri Sendiri

Pernah tak korang marah tapi perasaan tu tak dapat disalurkan dengan cara yang betul. Lama-lama boleh jadi stres. Secara peribadi, diri aku bila marah aku suka keluarkan emosi tu.

Kalau tidak dia akan terpendam dan akan beri keburukkan. Kalau dulu aku banyak bertanya pada diri, kenapa berlaku? Mana lagi aku kurang sampai jadi benda yang aku tak suka.

Marah atau kecewa tak kisah atas sebab apa pun kecil atau besar isunya aku suka meluahkan kepada seseorang.

Pernah baca ciri-ciri personaliti kelahiran mengikut bulan oleh dato Fadilah Kamsah, bulan November orang dia kurang sifat sabar.

Setuju sangat. Aku tak suka orang buang masa aku dan aku cepat bosan. Selalu je dulu kalau kerja berkumpulan ada yang tak selesa sebab aku dah ke depan meanwhile mereka masih lagi berhati-hati buat Keputusan.

 

Kita Perlukan Pendengar Bukan Pengkritik

Masalah bila kita luahkan pada orang, orang mudah untuk jatuhkan hukum. Normal lah kan. Kita nak cari pendengar tapi kita jumpa pengkritik.

Pedih mat. Sudahnya emosi tu lagi marak sebab jumpa orang yang kurang tepat. Silap hari bulan perasaan marah dan kecewa tu bertambah-tambah.

Tapi jangan lah marah orang tu, jangan kecewa. Kelemahan tu datang dari diri sendiri. Bukan salah dia tak faham kita. Kita je yang belum berjaya cari orang yang betul.

Korang yang jumpa pendengar tolong simpan, jaga dia baik-baik. Bukan semua orang ada rezeki. Kalau orang selalu cakap pasangan kita adalah pendengar yang baik.

Dalam kes aku, pasangan bukan pendengar yang aku cari. Dia adalah pelengkap jadi fungsi dia berbeza. Aku bertuah sebab Tuhan kirimkan anak lelaki aku sebagai pendengar yang baik.

Aku tak minta apa-apa, aku Cuma nak bersyukur pada Tuhan sebab banyak sangat nikmat Dia beri. Walau jauh sangat aku pusing dan jalan untuk aku faham kenapa Dia aturkan sesuatu aku.

Menjengah ke usia 40 tahun, aku dapat rasa Tuhan dah lama bercakap dan tegur aku. Tapi sifatnya manusia selalu leka dan alpa.

 

Kesimpulan

Untuk korang yang suka bercakap dengan diri sendiri. Pernah berada atau mengalami benda yang sama macam aku take a chill pill. Semua perkara akan ambil masa untuk kita faham. Semoga Tuhan mudahkan urusan korang. Doakan aku juga.
