Finished my diploma. I survived!


15 January 2019, the last day of being diploma student. I can't believe that day would finally come. I remember I kept saying I want to give up but I keep holding on and Alhamdulillah, I really survived. Why I sound like diploma is that hard and tough? Well, after making through of it it's not that bad. I just love being dramatic hehe. I was a food technology student. To be honest, I regretted my choice for choosing diploma instead of went to matriculation. It's because I don't do many research on my course before accepting the offer. At that time, I just want to escape from matriculation. I thought Food Technology is the same as Dietitian Course. Friendly reminder, do research before accepting the offer. Pray to God if it's the best or else you gonna end up like me.

But Hey, Diploma is not that bad. Kind of relaxing but still got pressure when Week 8 and above is coming. My result for Semester 2 and Semester 3 was not satisfying maybe because Semester 1 I got Dean List so I felt comfortable enough. Stay Uncomfortable peeps! Going through Semester 4, I became serious and get my head straight. To be honest, Semester 4 and Final Semester were my favourite because I did so well and very proud of myself. My Final Year Project was recognized as the best among the best. I thanked God for giving me the best team  I could ever asked. I still remember the struggle, meeting every night, had to spend my precious weekend finishing the FYP and BP, became broke and many more. I really enjoy the whole process because the end of our blood, sweat and tears was worth it.

What is food technology? We did learn basic nutrition but this course basically more to food industry. If you are curious on how the production of noodles, sausages and many more this course is exactly suits you. I find Food Engineering was the tough subject for me but Alhamdulillah i managed to get satisfying result. This course has more chemistry and physics in it. The reason why I'm not into this course because I love biology more. There's statistics subject ugh I hate numbers.....Whatever, I survived after all. All the lecturers have been so good to us especially Food Lecturers.

What makes me survived? How I can keep holding on? The main reason is God. I believe God knows the best so I kept telling myself let it flow and let God. Alhamdulillah. Next, My parents. I'm the eldest child so I have to be the role model for my other siblings. My parents, they send me and fetch me every time I want to go home. I never took a bus. Thank you Abah and Umi. I love both of you will all my heart. Finally, my friends or to be exact my housemates. Without them, I will be 24/7 homesick I guess. I always thank God for meeting me to those people. Intan, Afiqah, Husna, Tasha and Izzati. Thank you for being good sisters to me. I really appreciate you guys. During my final year, I met other bunch of good people. I always had a problem whenever I have to work in groups. But this time, the term "TEAMWORK" did applied in our team. We won the First Place in Food Product Development Contest, Top 5 Best Packaging Video and was praised during Pitching For Business Plan. Thank you, I'zzati, Wani, Bella, Diah and Zara.

There's a lot of bittersweet memories during diploma and I cherish every single of them. I joined Dance Club for the first time and did performed during AGM. I hate dancing before and I couldn't believe I could dance even though I'm an amateur, I tried. What an achievement! I had 3 crushes during my diploma days LOL but it just for fun. I never approach them too. I joined Teater Hadis when I was in Semester 2. (P/S: my passion towards acting is still there). Hang out with my housemates was the best. I missed them so much. Those were some of the memories. I couldn't share all because it's gonna be a novel rather than a blog.

Advices to young people (Cey, I'm young too because I'm still 21), If you ever feel like giving up, think about it deeply and many times. Think the after effect. Are you really not going to regret it? Are you going to be happy? I heard other said God doesn't like people who give up. Have Faith. Keep Holding on even the journey was super hard but it's gonna be worth it. You really can face it! Surrounds yourself with good vibes. You are in charge of doing that! Studying is hard but remember your Niat, Study for God and Yourself not because of anyone else. That's all i think. Thank you for reading :)

My first wedding invitation + devastating news

Based on the title, yes, I went to my friend's wedding! Actually, I was surprised that I did. I faced a lot of problems before the D-day such as transportation and many other concerns. Alhamdulillah, God made it easier for me. So, how was it? It was a memorable day. We were so awkward when we first step into the place. Then, we spotted our friend looked so beautiful in her wedding gown. She and the groom were in a photography session so we decided to find a place to sit and eat. She approached us as we were about to eat and she was so stunning. I can't believe she is the same person who used to call me "Nadhir", the person we called "baby lion". How time flies. We are adults now and sometimes I tend to overlook that. We may not be as close as we were in school but it's understandable because we have so many in our plates. I was grateful to have the chance to go to her wedding celebration. I got to meet my other friends as well. In the car, we talked abou...

Semester 3......90% done

 Hey there! the original plan is to update blog tomorrow. However, changes of plan. I just finished my first essay for HNH finals. I don't feel like continuing the second essay tonight. My brain needs a plenty of rest. Tonight I chose to update blog before I missed it. As stated in the title, you can tell that I'm in the middle of finals. 2 papers done, I is ongoing, 4 upcoming. I cannot wait to finish the finals. I have lots of plans in my mind such as maybe I could continue watching the originals season 4, watch one or two kdramas (maybe 18 again and crash landing on you?)  and read 3 books!!!! wuhuuuuu! So that's the semester break plan and a bit of life update. Actually I have no big issues, except for how tough this semester is to me. I'm done complaining so lets look at the brighter side. Perhaps I can share what I've been learning this semester. So the core subjects are statistics and Social Psychology. Statistics is always boring to me but I gained something...

Short staycation, currently in week 13, current mood.

Hi! It's January 20, 2022. This morning, I was supposed to finish introduction part in assignment 1 Psychological testing 1 however I don't feel like doing it so here I am updating the blog. I'm currently in week 13 and it feels like hell. There are 3 assignments, and 4 tests left for this semester. I don't know if I'm procrastinating or I'm taking my time and have some breaks by watching movies and YouTube in between the assignments. I literally do not want to push myself too much. Trying to stay sane in this insane period. I don't know what I'm doing anymore, what I want to know is I will finish this semester instead of this semester finishes me. Let's pray that I'll be able to get pass through this. This too shall pass.  So 20 days into January, there's only two things that made this January feels like less hell. First one, we went staycation in 1 January. Well, it's only for one night but still a good escape! I spent a lot of time wit...
