Goodbye IMU!

Assalam...

It was not easy to bid farewell to a place where I had so much memories. Everything that allowed me to grow and become who I am today. Of course it was not easy to go through some experiences I had in IMU but I guess it worth the journey.

Don't expect a long post to summarize my experience in IMU, but even the full story should remain undisclosed as it is needed to remind me that to become a better person is not an overnight work. 3 years in IMU taught a whole life worth of experiences.

I would love to thank the Almighty for giving me this chance to realize what I can do for me despite what people planned for me and today I can turn back and smile.

I would also want to thank my family, especially my beloved husband to blindly believes in me no matter how life was until today. I wish all the happiness possible in this world and hereafter for him. I love you sayang!

I want to thank all friends since primary school, secondary school, pre-diploma, diploma and colleagues who always there for me when I almost gave up at times. I wish the best for everyone.

Last but not the least, a million thanks to all lecturers in IMU: Mr. Alex, Dr. Nicole, Ms.Zuhrah, Dr. Abdoul, Mr Sara, Prof Menke, Ms Sam, Dr Ke, Ms Nurul, Dr Jana and few more lecturers from another faculty who taught me in IMU.

Learning is to me not only to get certificates or to get good jobs, but to remind me how important every single person that landed their roles in my life and how much they contributed along my journey to the finishing line. I truthfully know that with just thanking them is not enough but I pray that God will bless them in anything they do throughout their journey in life.


p/s: I am so grateful to graduate on time LOL... till then
xoxo... luv ya all!!!!!!

Hello Semester 9!!!

Pejam celik pejam celik dah hampir ke penghujung perjalanan degree Nad. Pelbagai cabaran dan dugaan sepanjang pengajian Nad di IMU dan most of the time Nad pancit dan bangkit semula sebab Nad sedar, nasib Nad dan masa depan Nad hanya Nad yang boleh corak dan bentuk selain doa dan serahkan pada Dia.

Hari ni, Nad berjaya menyudahkan Semester 8 Nad dengan presentation about Nad punye experience throughout Industrial Attachment a.k.a Internship. Hopefully semuanya dipermudahkan dan Nad dapat buat terbaik untuk semester akhir Nad nanti.

So, untuk semester akhir ni Nad ada 3 modules dan satu thesis untuk disiapkan dan barulah Nad bergelar siswazah.. cewahhhh In Sha Allah... Well, banyak yang Nad akan rindu dan geram dengan IMU tapi di sinilah Nad menimba ilmu baru dan amat bermakna pada diri Nad.

Sepanjang pengajian Nad, banyak Nad belajar dan banyak peristiwa yang mengubah perception Nad dengan life dan diri sendiri. Nad belajar sayangkan diri sendiri dan belajar tentang priority sebagai manusia dan yang penting Nad sedar Nad bukanlah Superwoman yang ada super power yang mampu dalam segala perkara. Human was born with limitations.

Please pray for Nad dapat kekalkan pencapaian cemerlang untuk semester akhir ni. Nad tak sabar nak plan life after dah graduate. Nad nak fokus dengan keluarga, especially membantu Mr A dengan online business dia and also Alyaa untuk menempuhi UPSR tak lama lagi tu...


Till then...

"We might hurt ourselves and others throughout life, but no one will live this life as you!"

Last week of Internship in Living Hope!

Aloha!

Dah hampir 3 bulan Nad intern di Living Hope. So many things happened and learned from this internship. Hopefully Nad dah beri yang terbaik buat semua. Sepanjang menjalani internship, Nad banyak buat reflections. Either about the internship itself or many things such as life, relationships and even death. Banyak perkara yang Nad kenal dan belajar sepanjang 3 bulan ni. With no classes, no IMU, no classmates and nothing, Nad rasa perbezaan yang amat ketara dengan hidup. Many questions popped out eventually dan Nad seolah-olah nampak what I want to be sooner. I DON'T WANT TO WORK again, anymore. Maybe nak tolong Mr A berniaga online or if possible I really need to work pun, Nad akan pilih the place yang better than what I normally had before.
Meaning, Nad nak cari tempat kerja yang ada colleagues yang lebih daripada 3 orang. No ad-hoc tasks all the time. No one will take advantage of me yang SANGAT SUSAH says NO to anyone. I always end-up doing others' tasks and not relevant tasks.

However, I know bukan senang nak dapat apa yang kita minta. So many people yang berjaya bertahan lama sebab they are so strong mentally and Nad sangat salute those people and really hope Nad akan jadi macam mereka kelak. One sweet day! So, 23rd September nanti last day Nad at Living Hope. 8th November pula Nad akan jadi volunteer for their Charity Bazaar di The School, Jaya One. Well, paling tak sabar nak masuk IMU dan habiskan semester akhir Nad, In Sha Allah.
Sedih pun ya sebab tak pasti apa yang Nad akan buat after this. Nak sambung belajarlagi pon ya tapi nak kena kumpul dana sebab niat nak guna own money for Master and PhD. Wah sangatlah over cita-cita Nad but god willing, who knows?!

So, stay tuned!

Goodbye Semester 7!!!

Bismillah...

Alhamdulillah, after almost 3 years of sacrificing period, I could finally pass my second year and there are only 2 more semesters left before graduating. I should thank my husband for his unconditional supports; financially & morally. Also to the family, lecturers and friends.

I realize that doing something that I chose from the beginning really worth everything in my life. I won't say I am best at doing this, but at least I'm doing this whole-heartedly. No worries about getting scolded by anyone, no worries of being judged and no worries about failing!

IMU taught me many new things. I would not appreciate anything more than the things I had now if I don't do this. I started to miss IMU and the people attached to it. Soon enough, I will be leaving this University and start new life without assignments, datelines and traffics (I wish!).

The same feeling I had long time ago when I was about to finished my Diploma in UiTM Shah Alam. Every day I kept thinking on what to do after this, and how to survive without going to university, to classes, not meeting my classmates and the list was endless. Now, what should I do after finishing my degree (In Sha Allah!)? Should I accept the offer* or not? Should I just be a stay-at-home mom/wife? Should I apply for new jobs?

3 years ago, I never planned for this moment at all. I might be known as someone who basically well-planned but seriously, I never even think of finishing my degree and moving on with normal boring life! Well, it's not totally boring but still, you might agree if I say life without anything to accomplish is darn boring!!!!! At least for me!

I will start semester 8 tomorrow. I hope for the best and everything will be just fine for me. I really want to have good experience during my internship period and expand my network of friends and colleagues. May Allah ease everything, In Sha Allah!

p/s: It's still Ramadhan, and time is running so fast. 10 more days for Ramadhan to leave us! Please pray for my journey in this! xoxo
*indicates secret offer...lol

EOS 7 is coming!!!

Hello hai!

I was here writing simply random things when I was supposed to study for my upcoming exam next week. I was so nervous but at the same time, I craved for so many types of food. Typical me, duh! Well, there were too many things going on in my life lately and none was so exciting except for the Superb Presentation done by me and my beloved partner, Diandra! Thank you for making everything as smooth as possible, DD!

As for my personal journey of life, I was still desperately looking for lots of opportunities to get out from my comfort zone, and I really hope everything will be as planned before. I have 2 weeks of study break this semester but I wish I could make full use of those days and sadly, my head and body cannot cooperate at all. I feel lazy sick most of the time and procrastinate at my best. I want to study really bad but I guess my brain was too tired of too much dramas lately in life.

Oh yes, Ramadhan will be coming so soon too. It would be the day after my 3rd paper for exam, so basically I will sit for last paper during fasting day! Awesome. Please give strength to see water bottles everywhere, God! lol, just kidding. I really look forward for Ramadhan month every year even though I won't say I am a good person who loves to fast but I love the scenes and activities during Ramadhan. Food is literally everywhere soon, especially in PARAM (pasar Ramadhan). Therefore, there is no more excuse not to puasa!

So, what to cook today? Simple dishes only such as fried chicken, fish in coconut milk sauce, and cucumber as the side dish. And of course sambal belacan (super-spicy/hot chillis paste with prawn paste).

And, nothing else to share for now. Hopefully, after I finished with exam, I will have the mood to update more!

Entering New Semester & Final Year !!!!

Bismillah...

Alhamdulillah, syukur ke hadrat Allah S.W.T, EOS 6's result tak mengecewakan dan sangat2 puas hati. Whatever pon, I hope I could do better this time and no more emotional attempts..ehheheheh

Semester 7 nanti starts on 23rd February and so many things will be there!

The most scary part must be the THESIS part. lol...
Then 4 more subjects:

1. Social Psychology
2. Intelligence
3. Drugs & Behaviour
4. Major: Practicum 2 [Group Counselling]

So, it actually 5 things to beat next semester. Please, pray for me too!!!! I'm excited and scared at the same time but I think, nothing is impossible for those who try their best, In Sha Allah....

Well, that's all for now!

Wish me luck for my Final Year.....

It's tomorrow and I am so scared!

Bismillah...

Well, after tonnes of panic attacks last 3 weeks, and tomorrow, EOS 6's result will come out!!!
I am so scared and never ready to see the email and then to retrieve the slip at Academic service. OMG!

Well, I just hope for the best and the strength to get the best or the worst! Amin........

Every semester, I just start with so many hopes and resolutions in mind but in the middle of the semester I will start shaking a bit. I will then lose control of everything and mentally down.

I really hope to finish this journey and face the future as I planned before.
I really need to finish this journey and be proud about it, not for anyone else, BUT ME!
But, I admit that sometimes it is hard to pretend I am good enough and be able to get through each semester ALIVE.
I hope I could say goodbye to SEMESTER 6 and start my SEMESTER 7 with extra courage and spirit!

EOS 6 starts Tomorrow !!!

Bismillah....

Tomorrow is the day... I really hope that I can do my best after few weeks of preparing for the EOS week. Since I will be having back2back exam papers, 19 till 22 Jan 2015... 4 modules [2 morning papers + 2 afternoon papers] and listening to Taylor's Blank Space right now while writing this post - I'm so sure I don't want any blank space in my answer sheets for my EOS 6... LoL *ok lame joke* But please dear God, give me the best of the best-est memories for tomorrow and after..amin...

What to do after exam ends? I have no idea. Maybe I can go travelling. But still depending on my monthly budget. As long as I have good feelings after exam ends, than I should at least reward myself right? Maybe I will just follow my friends on their vacation or trips to anywhere.... MAYBE!!!

Anyhow, let's just pray for the smooth and successful EOS 6 everyone!!!!! Amin


p/s: I can't wait to say goodbye to SEMESTER 6!!!!!

New Challenges

Well... time flies so fast until I cannot figure out what I had done those past semesters... I wish I would have done better every semester but I guess I have my own limit. I love to admit I can actually halfly satisfied with my achievements so far because, last time I knew how I performed in studies. This time I prepared well and then I prayed so hard to succeed. In sha Allah... HE knows best. 

3 weeks passed thru and I can hardly remember what I have done so far. I was given several tasks with so tight and close datelines... I hope I can do my best and never regret anything that would happen this semester. amin...... 

Jadual dah keluar

Kemain lagi excited everytime tunggu jadual semester baru keluar di portal e-learning... Macam budak2 baru nak up jek gayaku.... Siap refresh few times sebab nak tengok dah uploaded ke belum. One of several unknown reasons is sebab curious apa subjects yang nak dihadap sem 4 ni pulak. So, inilah 6[ENAM][SITTAH] modules/subjects yang bakal menghantuiku this sem:-

1. Elective: Counseling Skills [sem 4 dah kena amik majoring....baru jek nak merasa honeymoon sem.....hek ko honeymoon :( ]
2. Memory [elok sangatlah....untuk warga tak berapa nak emas ni.....mengilatkan lagi memory aku dengan menghafal notes semua]
3. Adulthood [Finally, selepas adolescence...infancy & childhood.....la ni......kita belajar pasai org dewasa.....eh pasal aku ke????]
4. Motivation and Emotion [ermmmm....erm........ok emosi skg ni.....takde nak motivasi dah]
5. Cognitive Psychology [Omgeeee...... bio lagi ke?????? ingatkan lepas Biopsych dah selamat.... :'( ]
6. Professional and Ethical Issues in Psychology [ha ni acane ni....acane ni........]

Well, basically [basic ke?] these are the subjects for Semester 4...permulaan yang hebat untuk second Year.... Bismillah....semoga dipermudahkan segalanya...amin

Rindu

Wow! Lama sangat tak jengah my blog.. since enrolled in IMU. Rindu nak menulis (read as merapu/merepek) but kekangan masa dan assignments plus exams - Ampun jelah. Should clarify back my priority soon, since I love writing and I must put own effort into it someday, PERHAPS. Wish me all the best. Tambah skg senang jek nak update personal daily routine using tumblr/instagram/FB but blogger semakin dilupakan. I hope sooner or later, I'll be fully back to this. Big exam around the corner, doakan yang terbaik k. So much to tell you but soon!! Till then, have a great life ahead!!!!! xoxo

IMU : First memorable week!

Halu.... Sorry ye, lama tak mampu jengah sepenuh hati ke sini. Sangat rindu tetapi apakan daya, tangan lenguh menyalin notes. Nak menghafal so kenalah salin balik semua print-out notes tu. huhuhu. Well, Alhamdulillah minggu pertama di IMU, semua berjalan lancar. Syukurlah dikurniakan classmates yang sekepala dan tak lokek membantu sepanjang di campus. The lecturers so far ok lah since ada foreign lecturer, agak pitam jugak nak faham his accent, but overall, everything is fine.

Banyak juga kenangan minggu pertama dan kedua yang lawak tetapi hanya mampu kusimpan kejap dalam memoriku. Al-maklumlah, segalanya pun kebetulan..lalallalallalalala. Hopefully, later on ku dapat gilap semula English ku yang semakin rusty....huhuhuhu harapnya lah...... Masa terasa pantas dan makin penat jari nak menyalin notes yang lecturers duk update di portal. :( Mana nak baca dan faham lagi....belum nak hafal lagi.

One more thing, dalam pada nak elak subject calculation/maths related....Dapat terus 1st sem Statistics. Terkejut seniors bila tahu kami dah kena amik Stats on 1st sem. apalah nasib kami......huhuhuhu 

p/s : Usaha Lift kejayaan....amin

Study mode is ON

The sad part of self-studies is, I have the continuously yawning habit plus I always need to rewrite everything in order to memorise them all. :(  Gifted rusty brain is really challenging when it comes to memorising procedure....I need to beat this laziness and try my very best to excel this semester....In sha Allah... please pray for me ok!!!!

I hope this semester I can do the best. I really wanna score in all subjects especially statistics 1 and research methods... amin....I will have no enough time to update my beloved blog after this but I hope I will always have time to study well!!! Yeayyyy....!!!!

P/s: hopefully, I will get 3pointer above this first sem...amin......
