Stupidity

I want to share my travelling experience going back to my university. I went out of my house at 4.30 pm, my friend fetched me. We took KTM at Bandar Tasik Selatan, also known as TBS. My friend and I arrived at 5.20 pm. The train schedule is at 6.30 pm. We waited for few minutes at the platform. We could have arrived at Pulau Sebang/Tampin station at 8.00 pm but we took off at the wrong station. It was only one station, we have to wait for an hour and 20 minutes for the next train. We arrived at 10.00 pm at Pulau Sebang/Tampin station. As soon as we arrived, we ate Yong Tau Foo because we are starving!! Then my friend pick us up at 10.30 pm and we arrived at my college at 11.00 pm. That is my journey for today. Lesson learnt. Next time, if you want to go back by bus, please purchase the ticket early, if not, then there is no bus for you anymore.

Second Week

My second week was almost hectic. All is well. The class started on Wednesday because Monday and Tuesday are public holiday. I didn’t go home for the past weekend. It was boring because my roommates went home. I am not scared of staying in the room alone. For those four days of holidays, I just stayed in my room. I ate instant food but if I want to eat a proper meal, then I can get my juniors to buy for me. It was not bullying, they volunteered.

I did my quiz on tax and also done my presentation for entrepreneur subject. I also got a new assignment. Yeayyyy. The presentation was in front of two classes, we did well, I am proud of myself. I hope we get the 5% for our carry mark. For the quiz, we only got five minutes to answer it. I was so nervous but it went well. I thought that I have to answer only one quiz but there were two of it. My lecturer made us do both of the questions. Luckily, I managed to answer it.

Week 2 is done. Looking forward to a new week ahead. My lecturer wants to see our progress on our assignment. Semoga Allah permudahkan.

Money, Where Are You?

The title of the post is so funny but it is not funny when we are in the real situation of not having money. I noticed a lot of new things in this semester. One of it is there are many students selling their products. They have their own business. I guess they want to make money to buy books and for their expenses this semester. I don’t mind, it is good to have this kind of environment, it means they want to find money on their own. I also want to find money on my own. I have my own business selling foods. Also I am so happy that my old books are all sold out. Yeay!!

I did mention about books just now. I am so lucky that my seniors gave me their books so I do not have to buy it. It saves me hundreds. Thank you sis! Saya doakan akak2 dapat dekan! Love you! My friends have to buy new ones and it cost them a lot. I am still searching for free book from my seniors, hope I can get one or two for my friends. Be nice to your seniors, I am not saying that my friends are  not nice to them but they do not have any relations with other seniors before. That is why. Rapat dengan senior bukan sebab nak popular ke apa, tapi sebab inilah, maybe kita boleh dapat buku free, information yang juniors lain tak tahu atau knowledge ke cara belajar yang lebih efektif untuk sesuatu subjek tu. I am still searching for free books, so sabar jap eh kawan-kawan.

For those yang nak berjimat, I suggest you to challenge yourself with the 52-weeks challenge. Just print out any layout and you can start saving. You can get more than a thousand if you save your money with the 52-weeks challenge. I did too. Harap istiqamahlah dalam saving. I spend only for lunch and dinner, I mean I eat heavy meals for lunch and dinner. I spend for about RM10 for two meals and on the weekend, I do not go outside and eat my instant foods. It is not healthy, I know, but only for two days in a week. I do not spend my money on useless things such as things that I don’t need. I just buy necessities. Know your needs and wants. Prioritize your needs than your wants. Lastly, close your eyes when you are near to things that you want to buy. Do not ever stop to see them and have patience in yourself. I hope all is well with your money and lust for your ‘wants’.

Being Busy Holding You Back From Achieving Many Things?

Been thinking to myself, is holding to many positions can hold you back form achieving many things? I think, if you involve with various clubs or organizations in university, you can managed your time more efficiently. That’s one of the achievement isn’t it? Being able to manage your time carefully. Sometimes, we have to count in the smallest thing in our daily life as it may be one of the biggest factor to become successful in life. Being involved in many things do not assure our successful life. Being capable of managing our time for studying and involve in clubs or organizations, that makes us a better person than others who just focused on one thing.

I have friends who just study. Their job is studying. That is it. Okay. They are very polite, nice and always get good marks in examinations. Their CGPA’s are very impressive. I always look up to them but not in overall perspective. I was impressed by the way they are studying. Always on the desk. I would say that is not a healthy way of studying or achieving good GPA. You have to involve in club’s activity or activity that college organize. At least involve in one or two activities of the club’s activities. Many people say we are nerds just because we are excellent in our study. I am a nerd too, I study on my desk for hours but I also involve in my college’s activities. I like being busy, that is who I am. Of course, not everyone is the same. I get jealous when my friends get four flat for their CGPA but not so jealous when I look at their achievement on something else. They achieve nothing other that four flat in their CGPA. What I am trying say is, be active outdoors other that active in studying.

Involving in many activities actually do not hold you back from your studies. It gives you chance to become better. Chance to manage your time. It is also as a preparation for when you are entering your career phase, when you are working later. Involving in things other than studying can teach you many things like how to handle university students, learn how each departments works in events, how to organize events and many more. It teaches us many things. Take opportunity of it. When you are in diploma, it is easy to achieve many things. We are being spoon fed in diploma but later in degree, you have to do it  yourself. The more we get older, the wiser we get. (OH MY GRAMMAR). We become wiser through experience. Experience is very valuable. You will regret if you do not experience it.

 

First Week of My Last Semester Part 2

Hi, this is the continuation of my last post. I want to continue on what happened on the first week of my fifth semester. Okay, I want to talk about how heavenly my schedule is for this semester.

This is my schedule, for now there is no amendment. I have three days of morning class and one day of evening class. This is just the schedule and this is nothing compared to the workloads. Of course we study for the designated times but, the workloads are shitty. Sorry not sorry. Most people thought it was just introductions of the subject but, (there is ‘but’ again in my sentence) we started our first lesson of audit and tax. We even finished one subtopic on that day and there is quiz waiting for us on the next week. We didn’t mind, seriously because we also want to catch up with our lessons faster so that we can have our holidays in peace and also we do not want to replace our class or having extra classes at the end of the fourteen weeks.

For the second day, only god knows how we waited for the evening class. I have plenty of rest, thank you. The third day, we were having fun in the evening and for the fourth day, I took my time sleeping late and wake up late at 10. Even though the schedule is flexible, I have may things to do. For this semester, I was appointed as assistant class rep. My class rep cannot attend the two days of classes, so any work related to that, I handled it the most. I know my class rep is the busiest person in the world, so to lessen his burden, I took care of it. For accounting student, we mostly do our exercise by doing the past semesters. I was the one who photocopied the past semesters question. It was easy because I am also the treasurer of the class. I don’t mind having many positions because I LIKE IT. I like being busy.

I have a new resolution for this semester, I will finish my assignment on the day I get it. I will not procrastinate when it is related to homework and assignments. Assignment is impossible but homework is possible to get it done on that day . Next week, I have a presentation, quizzes, and homework to be submitted. I managed to get it done on Saturday. So, what am I supposed to do now? Haven’t you heard of the word ‘revision’? I think you better get ready for that because time is not waiting for you. Appreciate your time by doing something productive. You can always watch movies in your spare time but not too much because the movies gave you nothing but relaxation. Good luck for your studies!

First Week of My Last Semester

Assalamualaikum

Hi, I haven’t been writing for so long and I’m sorry for that. I want to talk about what happened on my first week out of fourteen weeks of my fifth semester. This is my last semester for my diploma studies. I am currently studying in UiTM Alor Gajah. I have been here for two years now and I hope I can pursue my degree at Puncak Alam. It would be very convenient for me as it is so close to my house.

I returned to my college on Friday, the day before the actual registration that is on Saturday and Sunday. I participated in the registration of students into college. Basically, I was just making sure they got their room keys by signing their name. Thinking back, for those students who study in UiTM Alor Gajah, they are very lucky because they will get to stay in college inside UiTM no matter what and for those who didn’t get a place in any college, they can make their plead by writing letter to the college management. While waiting for the result, they have to transit for a week in a college.

So, I was there, taking care of our assigned college. I have to register students for Tun Ali college and Tun Hamzah college. All I have to do is to register JPK and sekitariat of the college because those two colleges are occupied by the interims who got into the college before us. I was there for the whole day and it was scorching hot. I got migraine from it. It lasts for three days.

For the next day, I decide to take a rest. It shocked me that I got migraine just from sitting in the hall for a day. Just sitting. Then, I got migraine, wth! On Sunday, thought that I could get some rest for the whole day, I cannot because I was not peaceful with the ‘male traffics’ I would say. My room is the furthest of the corridor, it got the whole view of our college. So, parents would go there to see the whole view of the college and furthermore my room is on the highest floor that is the third floor. I want to open my door for efficient ventilation but I cannot. On the evening, I can tolerate with parents who help their daughters settle in their things into their room but after five, it is not appropriate because we would be not wearing our hijab and we want to rest at that time. I notice a very distinct differences between my time and theirs. I mean we are millennial but we are very different. Millennial nowadays are very spoiled. For me, I wouldn’t want my parent to help me lift my things up to my room. It is on the third floor for god sake and I wish I can manage on my own, lifting my own things. I did most of it. My mother helped me twice and my father helped me once. I carried the heavy ones and it hurts my heart that my parent also helped me carrying my things to my room.

I mean, do children nowadays do not have that conscience or do the parents spoiled their kids too much? That is my question that I have been asking myself and my parent since their first time entering the university (MDS). I am not jealous because I think my parent provide me enough for me to live on my own, to take care of myself when I am away from them. I am capable of being independent and I rarely call my parent nor I go back to my house every weekend. What struck me the most is when I got to know there was one or two parents that were still there when their children went for the orientation. It is absurd! If you want your daughter to be in front of you for the whole time, might as well, take her home and homeschool her. I know parents want the best for their children but there is a limit. My parent give me chances to learn and find out things on my own. When I have that chance, I can be more independent and it taught me how to solve problem on my own. Alhamdulillah, I gain courage from it and I can feel that I become more independent person.
