Barakah day, guys!

It has been a long time since I last logged in to this blog of mine. Kinda miss blogging so here I am. How are you guys doing? Hope all is fine. Even if it's not, I pray that it will be, eventually insyaAllah.

So finally I'm almost done with this semester. All my assignments have been submitted proudly haha! Well if you know me, you would know how I am. I worked hard so that I could feel proud when I'm done with my work. And just like previous semesters, I'm proud with my effort. My magazine, my talk show, my business newscasting, my photobook, everything is great! At least to me. Alhamdulillah.

Now it's time for final examination. Here comes the tough part, again, oh God. I'm not a smarty pants, you know. Just like you guys out there, I'm lazy and I don't really favor exams. Well who does? But one thing for sure, I will miss this moment when I have my career. I believe that I will miss being a student once I'm done. Which is soon! So might as well just swallow this all as long as I can. I hope I can haha!

Wish you have a good day ahead then. :)

InsyaAllah

A bad day only lasts 24hrs the most :)

I strongly believe in this quote. Seriously. I had quite a very challenging (you can say the baddest) day ever yesterday. To the extend that I cannot believe it happened in one freaking day. It's like I've been hit thrice a day and that is so not cool. Really.

Such a contrast to my productive Saturday. I get my editing work done in one day. I felt beyond contented everything is ready to be aired. I felt satisfied with myself and my effort. I had a good time with my date as always. Everything is just... going great. Alhamdulillah.

But oh well, not everyday is your day anyway, Mieza. That's a fact no one can deny. It's just too fascinating how life can change in a blink of an eye. One day, you feel like everything is under control. And the other day, everything feels just as chaotic as a night market gets. Isn't that fascinating? It is for me. Very, indeed.

However, I'm super glad everything is fine now. This will forever remain as the best memory in my life that I will never forget. Though it might be the baddest day yesterday, now it feels like that too has become one of the best days of my life. It completes everything, amazingly. Alhamdulillah.

Place review

TADOM HILLS RESORT

I have always heard about Tadom Hills Resort but I never get a chance to visit the place yet. The pictures alone have made me feel beyond excited to explore the place. From the pictures, I assume that this place is a soothing little camouflage that you would never believe exist somewhere near Banting. Finally, the opportunity has come to me to experience Tadom Hills Resort. Here goes my review!

Tadom Hills Resort is situated 10-15 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), 20 minutes away from Banting and 45 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur (KL).

It is bordered by spring water; a lake, limestone hills and a man made beach. Almost everything in Tadom Hills Resort was built by using bamboos to maintain the melodious relationship between man and nature. It is indeed an amazing architecture designs inspired by nature. However, this place is actually still under construction. I believe they want to add more attractions towards this place than they already have so far which is good.

My group of friends and I arrived at Tadom Hills Resort at about 10 in the morning and my lecturer immediately went to get us the pass. When we arrived, I must say I got blown away by the fresh air this place has given me. It was what I needed after so long and my mood was beyond great. I simply cannot wait to explore this place!

If you have gone to Sunway Lagoon, Tadom Hills Resort provides you the same pass. When you have paid, you are going to wear a bracelet to indicate that you are free to enjoy Tadom Hills Resort all the way.

The price range varies for students who have their students’ card ready. They have to pay RM13 while normal visitors have to pay RM20 per entry.  From my opinion, I think the price is very reasonable and it is good that they give a privilege for students.

Once you pay, you are free to play whatever they offer. For an example, they have giant Jengga game which is so interesting to play with your group of friends, giant checked game that is nerve-wrecking, a very relaxing and mind blowing water rafting and many more. You can also jump into the lake from a 5metre platform that they have instilled for you. I think that interests adventurous people more as they can definitely show their cool poses or jumps over and over again as they please.

They also provide you life jackets whenever you want to play in the water. The life jacket is a must wear here because the lake is deep. Without the life jacket, you will drown and nobody could rescue you because of the depth of the lake overpowers the will of a rescuer, I believe.

For some people who rarely play in the water like me, wearing life jackets might be uncomfortable. But safety is always first no matter what. It will be uncomfortable in the beginning but you will get used to it as time passes by and when you become one with nature.

In addition to all those interesting games and activities they provided at Tadom Hills Resort, you can also go for camping. They have all the camping sites ready for you to experience with your families and friends. Not to worry, they also have built in toilets, showers, surau for Muslims and you can rent their BBQ equipments too.

One of the attractions they have that I find it very cool is their restaurant. Together, they have a stage for people to sing! For those who love singing like me, I believe you will find it cool as well. Communicating through music is the best thing one could ever master. It would be much better if people, who listen to it, appreciate it as much as the singers do. I find it such a handsome way to get connected.

Moreover, Tadom Hills Resort has a very unique built in three-storey bamboo house. There will be stairs for you to get to each storey. What is attractive in this house is that, it is a place for lovers, friends or families to hang their wishes or prayers up at the ceilings of each storey with a wood placard.

So you can write whatever you want, messages, wishes or prayers onto the wood placard, and hang them afterwards. It is just the same concept as the “love lock tower” in Korea that is called “Namsan Tower” where you could write down your names at the lock and lock your love forever at the tower. I get fluttered when I went inside the house and witnessed the love letters or messages people have hanged there. Such a heart fluttering memory, indeed and the bamboo house is too pretty to be true!

Overall, this place is very interesting for me. I had fun with my group of friends. I specifically love their water rafting because that is all I did there as I’m not really a fan of water diving. This field trip has actually released all of my stress due to its fresh air and nature. I enjoyed myself to the maximum and I believe this place is highly recommended for a first timer like me. This place is suitable for families, friends, team building, field trips, adventurous experience or even just a casual outing. For those who want to go to Tadom Hills Resort, I hope this place can be a stress reliever for you too. Have fun!

Flush the negativity away

Come on, Mieza Shafieza. Positivity is such a bless remember? Now go away, negativity. Pretty please!

Farewell, Capital J

I wish it's this simple before. It has been 2 years more or less since I had a crush on you, 8 months now since I got rejected from you and I finally can say, I'm over you. Totally. It's hard to believe, even for me myself. I'm not quite sure why I took this long to get over you. I guess I'm just denying the fact that you are not meant for me too many times till it's hard to believe. There's a reason why I met you, I liked you, I confessed to you, I got rejected by you, and finally, I moved on from you. I believe that these are all meant to be happening.

Of course, for the past 8 months, I had never thought I will get to proudly admit I'm over you. Honestly. I don't know why you meant that much to me. It's awkwardly surprising too, you know. But oh well. Who am I to deny whatever He puts me through. So I swallow them, bit by bit. I know there's always a silver lining.

Thank you anyway. Though you didn't do exactly anything but thank you for at least letting me liking you for such a long time. For these feelings I had towards you, thank you for all. May you be blessed, Capital J.

Movie review

THE DOLL

The Doll is an Indonesian horror film produced by the Hitmaker Studio. This movie is directed and scripted by Rocky Soraya and acted by Shandy Aulia, Denny Sumargo and Sara Wijayanto.

The Doll is a story of a poor married couple who gets a chance to come out from their poorness and live luxuriously. Daniel, the husband (Denny Sumargo) had a bad experience in his family. Daniel comes from a divorced family and obviously that had left a big impact on him when he has grown up. His mother left his father because they were too poor. He witnessed and heard the conversation between both of his parents when he was small while crying.

As time passed by, while they were living without his mother, one day, he found his father dead by the wall of their house. His father killed himself by cutting his own hand and died miserably. Daniel tried very hard not to live like his parents and since then, he hates being poor.

However, despite the trauma he had, he married a very beautiful and understanding woman named Anya (Shandy Aulia). Anya is a doll maker. She is beautiful, creative and very loving. She understands her husband even if they are poor. They live lovingly together but that is not obviously enough for Daniel due to his terrible past.

One day, Daniel came back home with good news; he gets promoted. So they move in a new and luxurious house. The neighbourhood is having a weekly casual meeting and Anya is invited. Her neighbour has a daughter who loves playing hide and seeks. Anya agrees to let the kid to play in her house whenever she wants to as a company whenever Daniel goes for work.

The suspense starts when Anya’s neighbour tells her a story about spirits. Anya and Daniel is a couple who does not believe in such thing. They just believe in logic. The neighbour tells her few signs to know if there is a spirit in the house. There will be a bad smell and a sudden sound at night. She refuses to believe, yet, it actually happens after Daniel comes back with an old doll. Daniel wants to throw it away but Anya wants to keep it. Then, that night, there is a rotten smell and a sudden sound of a glass breaks in the kitchen.

Things start becoming worse to Anya when she is alone and Daniel went out to work overnight. Something definitely is disturbing her. Nevertheless, she does not seem to be scared over it. She always tries to go towards the sounds and smells. When things get pretty intense, she tells her neighbour about it. Her neighbour comes to her house to witness it herself and found the doll placed at the doll’s cabinet. She is shocked and she starts to tell Anya the story of the doll.

The doll is believed to be the spirit of a young girl named Uchi. She is killed violently in a rob case which caused her family to die without any mercy. Since then, the doll seems to be alive and cause a chaos to whomever who tries to get rid of it. They will be killed if they do. So nobody ever has the guts to mess with the doll. However, Daniel actually dares to cut the tree which belongs to the doll since he does not believe in such thing. Since then, the doll follows him back home and lives with him because it no longer has anywhere to stay on.

Because Daniel gets rid of the tree, the doll gets angry and starting to mess with Anya instead. The doll tries to play hide and seek with Anya every night and Anya responds out of curiosity. Things get worse when the doll is trying to hurt Anya. Her neighbour calls upon an exorcist (Sara Wijayanto) who used to deal with the doll to help Anya and Daniel. When she starts calling the spirit, it is revealed that the spirit has changed into becoming more evil and determined as compared to when she dealt with it before. The doll wants Daniel dead and it seems like it is too angry at him.

So what do you think will happen to Anya and Daniel? Will they be dead or will the exorcist succeeds in calming the doll down and stops it from messing up like she did before? What is actually the twist behind the doll’s hatred towards Daniel? What is actually the main reason why the doll is possessed by Uchi? Is it to revenge or is it because Uchi had loved her doll too much to assume that it is alive? That is what you have to find out by watching this movie.

Personally, despite the fact that this horror film is from Indonesian, I must say the storyline is a good one. Horror movies are not really well known if it comes from Indonesia as compared to Japanese’s or Thailand’s. However, I’m satisfied with the plot. The climax is totally unexpected and that is indeed the best part of this movie. I love the twist; it leaves me a good satisfaction through it all. This movie is not that scary but thanks to the sound effect, there are parts of it which makes my heart skips a bit faster. The spirit of Uchi is quite horrifying too when it comes out of nowhere.

The downside of this movie is the sound effect. I hate the fact that they exaggerate the sound effect a little too much. I’m aware of the reason why sound effect is important in a horror film but in this movie, it is totally unnecessary to use it too much. It actually spoils my mood in understanding and feeling this movie. It would be nice if the sound comes out only on certain parts. If it does, I think the scariness of this movie would be a bit higher than expected. However, The Doll is a good movie. I have watched few horror movies that are completely a disappointment and not worth it so The Doll is still better than those. My overall rate for this movie would be 8/10.

Gadget review

5 reasons why you shouldn’t buy the iPhone 7

Undeniably, there are several of remarkable reasons you should buy iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus. For a kickoff, iPhone 7 has the new camera features, the upgraded storage options, and the water resistant body. While the iPhone 7 Plus comes with its dual-camera lens, has even more reasons to go and buy one. However, the iPhone 7 isn’t exactly going to be a must-buy for everyone. Here are five reasons and circumstances you may want to stop yourselves from buying the new iPhone;

1.       The deletion of the 3.5mm headphone jack

The preface of Apple’s Airpods was also an essential moment, but with the cost of the 3.5mm jack. Obviously, they are gone but what about the old cheap 3.5mm jack earphone and headphones? Not everything about these phones is all gold and diamond. The removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack has severe downsides for user handiness. In nearly any other case, on nearly any other phone, the loss of the headphone jack would be a deal-breaker, even with the first-rate changes to other parts of the phone.

2.      The price is too high

Despite the fact that both iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus have abundant advantages introduced, when you decide to purchase iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus, you would step back just because of one lethal con of it – high price! The new iPhone 7 will be available starting at MYR3, 199, beginning with 32GB of storage and rising up to 128GB and 256GB for MYR500 more per tier. As for iPhone 7 Plus, it starts at MYR3, 799 with 32GB, MYR500 increasing as well for a larger storage version.

3. The iPhone screen solution

Despite iPhone 7 Plus has 1080p display, other models are beyond this. Sony's Z5 Pro will offer a robust 4K UHD display and even cheap Xiaomi phones have a screen solution of 1920x1080. By any means, the iPhone 7's and 7 Plus screen is not terrible yet falls totally behind the bars. Many people were hoping that Apple would abandon its Lightning connector in favor of the much more universal USB-C that is becoming more and more ubiquitous by the day.

4. No sign of wireless or fast charging

The iPhone 7 still falls behind the competition when it comes to fundamental charging technology. Though plentiful phones have wireless charging, using some sort of charging pad that you simply set your phone on, the iPhone 7 still needs to be plugged in. Nonetheless, phones from LG, Samsung and other manufacturers charge twice as fast (or faster) than the iPhone 7. That may not seems like a huge issue, but being able to speedily charge a phone while on the go is becoming more and more important the more our smartphones become vital to our daily basic.

5. Androids keep getting better and much better

It might be understandable to say, but with phones like the OnePlus 3, the Nexus 6p and the Galaxy Note 7, there are overflowing of reasons to stick with your Android phone of choice. Whether it is for a great camera or the more customizable software, keeping your Android phone or even converting over to Android is more worthwhile today than ever before.

Why Journalism?

This is such a simple yet subjective question I have ever thought myself. Despite the fact that I love English, particularly in writing since I was small (thanks to my dad), well English is indeed broad. I believe that English is the most promising course as compared to others in the job scope.

If you master English language, you pretty much can work in whatever sector you are assigned to. The simplest example would be teaching. Either a teacher or a lecturer, both are undoubtedly a good career. Though I seriously have no intention and willingness to teach people (hopefully!).

Not that I cannot but I just find it's better for me not to teach. It's not easy to explain things very thoroughly and cautiously. It's even not easy to make people understand what you're saying, imagine to make people understand what you're teaching? It's a huge responsibility. What more to children; other people's children. Oh gosh, I rather not do. I love children but to teach them is one thing I seriously don't think I want to do. Of course except my own later in future.

So, coming back to the question, why Journalism? Because to me, Journalism is more than just writings (which I love doing). Students (mostly English students) or people might misunderstand what Journalism is all about. They simply thought "Oh Journalism is writing, nooooo!" hence they avoid Journalism which makes this major course have lesser students as compared to Public Relation (PR). And the fact that not every English students enjoy writing makes it worst.

I know this might be bias because I love writing, so it's easy for me to say such thing about Journalism. Things like Journalism is too fun and totally not tiring at all. Journalism is this, Journalism is that. Every positive things about Journalism I could think of. But believe it or not, this is not bias. This is sincere from the bottom of my heart as a Journalism major student, solely.

Is Journalism fun? Obviously my answer is a big yes! In fact, it is too fun! I'm a free type of person. Free means no datelines, no pressure, no strictness, no limitations. Journalism offers you all that as far as I'm concern and I'm so glad it did. It is too fun to the extent that I'm actually having fun (to the max!) while doing my work. It doesn't even feel work related. It feels exactly the same as I usually have fun outside.

Is Journalism easy? This is actually another stereotype thinking people have always claim. Journalism is easy, why do we need to study about it? Excuse you. There's nothing easy in this whole wide world. You're stupid if you think a particular course is easy based on what you thought or heard. Try and study, then you know. Journalism is easy only if you have passion and you enjoy doing it.

You get to learn more about writings, photography, editing and a lot more. The best experience ever for me in one course. One of the things I love doing most in Journalism is; reviews! Movie reviews, place reviews, food reviews, fashion reviews, gadget reviews, picture reviews. Oh gosh, I love it! So you see, these are few of the reasons why I chose Journalism. Journalism is more than what people have been thinking it was and I totally have no regrets choosing this major. Alhamdulillah.

Good things take time

This time, right here, all I wanted to do is just leave it up to Him. I'm just going to let time decides everything and go with the flow, really. It would be nice, to just enjoy every bits and moment to the fullest without caring about any possible things could happen. It feels just like a bird, flying up in the sky through the clouds and wind.

I have always thought about it. About how would it feel to fly? How free is a bird? How does it feel to just don't care about anything and live up to present? It is supposed to be nice and good, right?

Hence, I've decided. Let time decides. Whatever happens, I'll let it. The flow would never be all smooth and sail but well, that's where the beauty of life lies at. May Allah ease this easy breezy journey of letting time decides everything from now on. InsyaAllah.

You know who you are

This quote can never grow old. No matter how tiny a choice you have made yesterday, let say you chose to eat at a food stall rather than a "posh" restaurant. Nonetheless, that's inclusive in what makes who you are today. At least you know how to save money and that's good.

Well as for me, I never regret everything that has happened in my life be it just yesterday. As time passed by, I learned that whatever happens, you either take it positively or negatively at the end of the day. I decided to take it positively, always. Because it's never a harm. It's never a regret. To do so.

I may not be so sure of who I am today, how many achievements I've made, how many opportunities I've grabbed, how purposeful my existence is to people around me, I don't know for sure. But there's one thing that I'm certain of; I am doing good where I am right now. I am feeling good with whatever I ended up doing right now. I am good, now. And that's all that matters to me. Alhamdulillah.

Have you ever?

At once, it's like, you want to move on but you're stuck in the past. It's like your feet are cemented to the floor and you don't know if moving forward would make you or break you. All you know is that you hate where you are at and you want a change. It keeps bothering and just... annoying you. Have you ever felt that way?

Maybe I still care, like a dumber

When it comes about you, my eyes get watery. I feel like I'm suffocating and choking in my own breath, in my own feelings and flashbacks. I'm lost in my own memories. When the memories hit, that shiz hurts. It hurts me a lot whenever I remember you. And us. The fact that I let go, to my own standard is like losing myself, losing my other half. It is not supposed to turn out this way but oh well. I have only myself to blame. I have never had anyone else to blame anyway.

I completely agree. But those things, that some things you're talking about... how on earth to classify it's worthy? How worthy it needs to be, so that it's fine? How worthy is worthy? I obviously have no idea at all. Because if it's worth it, I wouldn't feel so beyond heartbroken and lost. I wouldn't feel so devastated with myself thinking that I'm all wrong and all incomplete. I don't know. This seems to be still hurtful to talk about.

Hello, November :)

I'm welcoming November with all my heart and soul. I wish nothing but a happier and better days ahead from now on. This month is going to be busier than ever with all the assignments, events, trainings and competition. Hope everything went well. May Allah ease, insyaAllah. Amin.

Thank you, October :')

October has been such a roller coaster ride for me. Sometimes it's smooth and sail. The other day, it's full of negativity and disappointments. I admit, someone can never be positive all the way no matter how much he tries. There will always be days when everything just fail you. Most important thing is how you handle and react to it.

Alhamdulillah, I have few people around me who have been such a sweetheart, listening to all my dramas and rants, bearing with my overthinking and insecure self, motivating and bringing me back to positiveness and reality, making me realize that there's no harm in being down for a day or two. Telling me that it's normal, what I feel and encounter. Consoling me that everything is fine and even if it's not now, it will be soon if I want it to be. I am eternally grateful and blessed.

Thank you October. It's been a month full of... mental breakdowns which I'm thankful for. At least I get to keep few people who matter most, closer than they were in my life. Lesson learned the hard way. Always.

Know your worth

Well everyone does. Everyone deserves someone who could just appreciate and prove that they care about you as much as they claim they do. And a prince charming doesn't necessarily has to be a typical gentleman, rich, perfect and stuffs. It's more than that. It's subjective. I believe if this is one of the essay questions in the examination, we will definitely get A+. Because we just have a lot to describe a "prince charming".

Indeed, this is easier said than done. But hey! What is there to lose if you let go off the jerk anyway? Obviously, it's just admirable how a woman can stay with a guy, build and help him go through everything till he succeed. However, there's always a limit to everything. You can be admirable and help him grow but you can never guarantee he will grow as how you expected him to be in the end.

So why waste your time for someone who doesn't seem to care? There's a limit to everything you can do. There's a phase where you can close one eye and keep on pretending to be so oblivious about everything. Once you have cross the limit, things will never be the same anymore. Once you have had enough of acting, it's too late already.

And when the time comes, all that's left is just a goodbye. Because ultimately, you realize that you deserve better. Question is, when will it be?

Nice knowing you!

It feels good, knowing you. It's a good feeling, really.

I'll do these for you

I won't lie to you

I know she's just not right for you

And you can tell me if I'm off

But I see it on your face

When you say that she's the one that you want

And you're spending all your time

In this wrong situation

And anytime you want it to stop

I know I can treat you better

Than she can

And any guy like you deserves

A good girl

Tell me why are we wasting time

On all your wasted crying

When you should be with me instead

I know I can treat you better

Better than she can

I'll stop time for you

The second you say you'd like me too

I just wanna give you the loving that you're missing

Baby just to wake up with you

Would be everything I need and this could be so different

Tell me what you want to do

'Cause I know I can treat you better

Than she can

And any guy like you deserves

A good girl

Tell me why are we wasting time

On all your wasted crying

When you should be with me instead

I know I can treat you better

Better than she can

Better than she can

Give me a sign

Take my hand, we'll be fine

Promise I won't let you down

Just know that you don't

Have to do this alone

Promise I'll never let you down

'Cause I know I can treat you better

Than she can

And any guy like you deserves

A good girl

Tell me why are we wasting time

On all your wasted crying

When you should be with me instead

I know I can treat you better

Better than she can

Better than she can

Better than she can

May He ease it for you, friend

Do you know how shocked I was when the truth is revealed? I cannot lie, I am still surprised now but deep down inside me, there's a voice saying and in fact keeps on repeating "I expected it. I knew it. There's a reason why I say what I said and well, it turned out to be true. Like a curse". Am I at fault? Did it happen because I said it? Indeed. I'm never wrong in this. Things happen for a reason. And sometimes there are millions of them mixed together like nobody's business.

I feel like I just came back through a time machine. It's fascinating and scary at the same time how memories could make you feel like you just rode a roller coaster. That exciting, mixed and haywire feelings lingering around you just like when you have ridden a roller coaster! Wow, this is clearly something I just have to write about though I seriously don't think I can describe it well.

I have missed you, my friend. It's just, nobody has ever known and understood me the way you do. Whenever you say something about me, it clicks and hits me hard right away. Like I know that is so me yet nobody has ever described it the way you do. Nobody has ever pinpoint it right the way you do. No matter how I wanted to just you know, brush it off and keep moving forward, I sometimes remember you. And us. How there are more happy moments than all the silly fights.

But oh well, life goes on. Never did I realize, while I was walking towards my future, there you are, stuck and confuse with everything that's happening in your life, pitifully. There you are, alone and drown in your own overthinking thoughts.

Trust me my friend, I have been there. I have experienced whatever you're experiencing right now and I know how much that sucks. I know, we are human. It doesn't matter if we are warned beforehand, we still go on living like how we wanted, expecting things would never turn out as the warnings we got. However, life never lie. Fate doesn't lie. If it's meant to be, it will definitely be. And I'm telling you, I don't regret what I said.

Honestly, I hope you will make the right decision for yourself. I hope you will stop being too stupid to realize you're being taken for granted. I hope you stop abusing yourself by letting that person controls you like a freaking puppet. All that matters at the end of the day is you and yourself. Life is not as simple and easy as we thought but it's never that hard as well. One thing for sure, there's always a rainbow after the rain, no?

I will pray for you, my friend. And just like I told you, I hope I'll be hearing good news from you sooner than I expected. Sooner or never, remember? I believe you can think well and quite maturely. I hope He guides you towards a good conclusion in the end, insyaAllah.

Praying for the best then

It is kinda hard for me to decide on this. Half of me think that maybe it's time to finally get over it and move into the next phase in life. I have postponed enough anyway so it's about time already. However, half of me think that maybe it's better to take my time as much as I can and enjoy the ride. Because I have come this far, why should I hurry? I'm late anyway. It is simply not that easy.

You know, sometimes it hits me hard. At my age, most of my friends are working or maybe pursuing their Masters degree. I'm no longer young. It's not the fact that I'm not happy where I am now but it's more towards what if I'm in their position? What would it be like, to work or to pursue a Master degree? It would be great, wouldn't it? Of course it would Mieza, duh!

Being in my final year makes it harder on me to be honest. The fact that I can just take all my subjects in one semester and get going for my internship and yada yada is surprisingly a hard decision to make. Nonetheless, I have decided. With difficulties of course.

I have decided to take my time, to grab opportunities, to enjoy, to create memories, to suck every experiences and to score instead of rushing towards life. Not to say my friends are all rushing. Of course not. Just, I think there's a reason why I'm behind them all. There's a reason why my life is one step late. Life's a climb isn't it? All we have to do is just enjoy the view. And I have decided to.

May Allah ease this decision and this journey. InsyaAllah. :)

My current obsession

We Don't Talk Anymore

Charlie Puth feat Selena Gomez

Keep calm, it's senior year!

Here begins the final year of my degree!

Alhamdulillah, ya Allah

Actually, when a friend of mine told me (as a gimmick of his LOL) only then I realized a fact. The fact that fascinates me until now. The fact that leaves me speechless for a single moment, a moment of silent they say.

The fact that this is the 6th time I reward myself with a dean's list. The fact that it is in a row ever since my first semester in degree (somewhere new obviously) until the 6th semester currently. The fact that I never once fail to make my parents proud of me every semester just like I planned and aimed to. The fact that my hard work is paid off (at least I feel like it did) every single semester. Ya Allah, it feels so good.

Honestly, I am not smart. And I don't think I can be (like seriously LOL). But I guess I am just that type who can do anything she puts her mind into. I think I'm that type who can easily get whatever I want to (when I do it myself I mean). And the only thing I mostly want and that I'll make sure I do it is; to make my parents proud of me in my studies. Minus all the little and not that important things of course.

Alhamdulillah, syukur ya Allah. There's nothing I ask for than a smile on my parents' face (even if I cannot see) when they knew my results every semester and that proud feeling inside both of them. I'm very happy when I can make them happy.

So yeah. Again, congratulations self. You did great for 2 years in a row and remember, your parents and family are proud of you. That is more than enough. Keep up the good work, the endless effort and the extra hard work in everything you do. May Allah bless the future ahead, insyaAllah.

October, be nice please :)

It's the end of my month, September. Alhamdulillah, it was great as usual every year. Now hello, October. A month where all the thrills and fun are in, I just cannot wait anymore! May Allah ease, insyaAllah.

Oh not to forget, it marks the beginning of my final year degree as well! Oh God, this is so exciting and meaningful. It's a year when I will remember most. Pretty sure I'm going to miss it too later, huh? Bet I will. May everything went well this month too. Amin. ^_^

Salam Maal Hijrah 1438

We have always celebrated new year right? But a common and well known new year just like any religion celebrates at the end of every year. Today, it's the New Year in the Islamic calendar. I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone Salam Maal Hijrah, 1438. Alhamdulillah it's another year for us Muslims. May this New Year brings us happiness, opens the doors of prosperity and may Allah bless all of us together, everywhere and anywhere we are. It's another chance to repent and change myself into the betterment, insyaAllah. Have a blessed one! :)

Hello, sem break! :)

That marks the end of my second year degree! Alhamdulillah, praise be to Allah, for this moment like finally. Sometimes, I feel like time flies too fast, I can still recall the first dean's list award I got when I was done with my first semester and that magical feeling of receiving the scroll on stage. But sometimes I demand time to fly even faster than usual so I can start my career or pursue my Master right away. It's a love hate relationship, you know, those two.

However, I feel beyond grateful now that I'm almost near to my graduation. It's exciting! But before that, I deserve to enjoy another semester break on my own. All the struggles, the hard work deserve a holiday of 3 weeks. Well, I don't usually have a real vacation during my semester break but the fact that I get to sleep, rest and hibernate myself out of all the responsibility as a student is enough for me. My brain needs the break most. I've been using it to the maximum and sometimes I do wonder, when will it explodes? It's about time though. LOL!

Anyway, have a splendid holidays uni-mates! Use this break as smart as you can because we will never get it next semester. It's time to parteyh (I mean rest LOL!)!

Salam Aidil Adha
