Internship & Job Hunting

CCOM 206 is a class

where the instructor will guide you

how to write great cover letter

and resume.

I had to find job ad or a specific company

that I want to have internship with.

Since I am an electrical engineering student,

all of the companies want the applicants to

have skills in programming.

You do know how

programming and I,

we don't work well right?

It's also a bonus if

the applicants have knowledge in economics and accounting.

Okay,

I just dropped my POLI243.

I have IB knowledge on Economics SL,

can they accept it?

I hate accounting.

I don't have any extracurricular activities that are useful

for my degree...

I really feel insecure now.

What am I even good at?

Birthday Present

My name was tagged 

at Solin Hall facebook group,

telling me I had parcel.

It was on Tuesday (my birthday).

But because I was too busy,

sleeping, aha,

so I didn't go to the office to claim my parcel.

Yesterday,

my class was from 8.30 till 5.30

and I had things to do on campus, till 7.00pm.

Today,

I had only 1 class!!

Yeay me!

So I got to claim my parcel.

My mum had posted to me

things from home,

for more than 3 weeks,

I just couldn't wait to claim it!!

When I went to the office,

I was searching for my parcel

and I saw

Azmi Haqqim's name on this one parcel.

I was shocked!!!!!

Here's to another surprise from 

this cheeky boy!

But I was otp with him,

so I didn't want him to know that I got the parcel from him.

I was pretending that

it was my specs :P

(Oh yeah, I got my specs for 32$ including lenses! 

You may want to order here : contactexpress.ca ; for Canada peeps only!)

I went upstairs and

opened the parcel 

(still otp)

and there's a letter.

So I read the letter out loud

and he was laughing hahahah!

Gotcha!

So we skyped,

because he wanted to see my reaction when

I opened the box, wrapped with newspaper.

(Qim, you really had to improve on the wrapping matter)

#butdon'tjudgeabookbyitscover

This was inside the box!

Necklace with my name!

I had been wanting this kind of

necklace since forever and to receive this

as my birthday present was simply not what I expected!

Thank you Qim

for this lovely present.

(I couldn't show that much of appreciation in front of you

had to control my tears. Nanti tak cool dah!)

#okaytakpernahcoolpun

He kept apologising

because it's not from Tiffany&Co.

but hey! 

This is more than Tiffany&Co.

for now :P

You can save that for later!

There's a lot more special days 

that we're gonna celebrate together,

okay?

I am a happy girl;

Syahmina.

My Banana Story

Hanyalah illustrasi semata-mata

I hate banana!

I hate eating banana, as a fruit.

But I loveeee banana cake! 

And if banana eaten with ice-cream,

I can take it.

Dad asked me to eat banana,

he said, it's good for the face.

I kinda agree with that

(I don't have any scientific proof tho)

because my mum is in love with banana.

And her skin is flawless!

She never has pimples!

You can't hardly see wrinkles on her face,

even she's 44 years old!

My mum always says,

"I loooooove banana!"

Yes, with the face,

trying to emphasise her love towards this yellow fruit.

I hate banana.

But I have to eat this,

for the sake of my face (and health).

So,

I blend banana, yogurt and milk

and add a teaspoon of matcha green tea and

tararaaaaa,

I drink it, everyday!

(I just started today :P)

My point is,

in life,

you just need to find ways to accept

things that you don't like,

but they're good for you.

We sometimes hate things which are good for us.

With perfect ingredients,

a food can taste delicious!

(Not so much in my banana case, but it's still acceptable)

Minor went wrong!

Today's whether is crazy.

The wind, ugh, it's freaking cold and I have 4 classes today!

I have 10minutes to go to my political sc class 

that is located at McIntyre building,

which is 1.6km away from McConnell building (source : Google Map).

I have to face this pathetic situation

 for every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

I am not ready for this.

POLI 243 is really fun 

because it is about politics and economics, you know

I am always into these kind of stuff since forever,

But the weather…

Okay, I should not blame weather or anything else but me.

I am not fit enough for this weather.

So,

I am dropping this precious class! 

A lot of people want to register for this class,

yet I dropped it, I felt bad!

Talking to Edda last night,

made me change my mind on the subjects that I wanna take.

Unlike in the states, 

I can't simply choose whatever subjects

that I want to learn,

I have to follow the list of courses given to me

in order to complete my degree.

It's fun - the idea of learning 

new things.

It's like discovering your interest

and discover yourself!

How I wish I can take any courses that I am

interested in without being tested on the subject materials haha!

SSMU has done a great job in

giving chances to McGill students to learn what they love to learn.

This semester, there's no Spanish study.

So, I am taking French II.

Because I already have the basic french hahaha!

They don't have bollywood dance, sadly :/

But I still have jhoomlay!

Oh yeah!

The fact that I've dropped my political sc class

(can't get over it, still),

I am replacing that with Religions of Eastern Asia!

It's an interesting course so far!

So, 

this semester, I am taking 5 subjects;

Calculus 2

Religious Ethics and the Environment

Properties of Materials in Electrical Engineering

Communication in Engineering

Religions of East Asia

And only the top 3 subjects have final exams,

the other two;

I need to write research papers , business proposals and written assignments.

Back to IB life, Syahmina

Hoping and praying for the best!

Exam Tips (Don't Follow Them If They Don't Fit You!)

For IB students,

this semester will be the toughest one.

Seniors once told me

that Semester 4 would be relaxing,

all you had to think of was your IB Final Exam.

NOPE!

This is the phase where

you have to correct everything--

your past written assignments,

EE, lab reports.

It was a totally insane semester for me.

However,

as an IB survivor,

I could give advices

on what should one do

during this semester,

knowing that

to advice someone not to procrastinate 

is no longer valid at this moment of time :P

These advices are the things

that I should have done,

if I could turn back the time.

1. FOCUS ON YOUR GOAL

People often have their momentum decelerated 

when it comes to final semester,

because somehow, our brains can be tired and

that could bring a bad effect to your life!

I felt this was when I was in Semester 4.

I felt tired of striving for the best,

I felt tired of exams,

I just wanted IB to end fast!

Don't commit the same mistakes.

You still have time to change!

2. PRODUCE THE BEST IRP NOTES

IRP notes are something that should be taken seriously.

You will have to divide the syllabus among your classmates

and produce notes for every subject.

Do it, properly.

Produce the highest quality notes that you can possibly produce.

When IB exam is nearer,

you don't have time to check those 300-page-textbooks;

that would be absurd and definitely a waste of time.

Do ensure that your classmates know the importance of having good IRP notes as well!

Especially when it comes to subjects that require a lot of memorisation;

economics, chemistry, biology etc.

3. MAKE FULL USE OF IRP SESSIONS

IRP sessions are compulsory to attend! Even if there's the strongest

magnetic attraction between you and your bed,

do come to IRP sessions!

Even if you think you know all of the contents and feel 

like it's better to study alone,

do come to IRP sessions.

Personally, I prefer studying alone rather than

studying in a group where the conversation will

be less academic and end up with gossip sessions haha.

But as for IRP sessions that your school

has allocated time and place for them,

do come!

Ask teachers as many questions

that can overcome your curiosity

before it's too late.

Usually those questions that are playing in your head,

but you don't transform them into words and ask more knowledgable

persons, are the questions that will be tested in the exam!

So, ASK!

Keep all the IRP questions,

basically they're just past year papers

but they are super beneficial 

because some questions are pretty much the same.

4. DO NOT DEPEND ON PAST EXAMS ONLY

I know this is very contradictory with my previous points,

but that is the bitter truth that Malaysian students hardly accept.

Some of the questions are designed to distinguish level of students.

You should know what you're learning.

As for me, my biggest mistake was to depend on past year papers only.

Some parts of IB materials,

I didn't quite understand,

but I chose to only memorise what're tested 

in the past exams.

Do not do this,

it's troublesome!

5. READ QURAN

My grandpa always reminds me, till now,

(I receive birthday tazkirah yesterday)

Quran should be your best friend.

It has a lot of guidance.

It's true!

Read Al-Waqiah everyday,

it's to give you rezeki,

insyaAllah

Before you enter the exam hall,

do read this surah too,

instead of revising your notes

because revising notes can make you feel more panic.

6. STUDY

Yes, there're irp sessions,

extra classes and all, but do spend time to study on your own too!

People cannot feed you with knowledge every time,

you have to do something that can help you as well.

If you don't help yourself, who will?

Allah will help those who help themselves.

7. SEEK FOR FORGIVENESS

Do seek for forgiveness from your parents and teachers.

I owe them a lot,

and little that I know,

some of my acts might hurt them

and that could be barrier for me to be successful.

Seek for their forgiveness and bless too!

I have friends that don't believe in this,

they seems to be successful,

at first, but not forever.

Some might deny this fact,

but I don't.

Show your respects towards others is an essential way of living your life.

Respect is not given, it is earned.

We are not young forever, we will be older too!  

We will have kids or might end up be educators.

We want others to respect us as well.

Therefore, we shall start doing that now.

8. DEPEND ON ALLAH

All in all, your fate has been written by Him.

No matter how well you think you've prepared for your exam,

or how well have you done in every of your paper,

He will give you the verdict in the form of IB results.

I did feel I could have gotten better results,

as I reflected on what had I done for the past 2 years.

But He had given me something better in return,

the wisdom behind the result that I got.

Maybe if I could have gotten 45,

I might not strive for the best in my uni life anymore (?).

No one knows best, but Him.

Put your trust in Allah,

your life will be better,

your future will be brighter :)

What does birthday mean to me?

I used to be the girl who wanted gifts and 

birthday parties when it came to my birthday. 

I couldnt deny it. My last birthday celebration with my friends and  

with proper cake was when i was in high school.  

The prank was real! Next, with my family, 

it was two years ago, when the whole big families of mine came 

to kmb with cake and laksa! 

Last year's birthday celebration was a belated one, with Haqqim 

and it was a successful surprise from him. 

This year, I dont feel like celebrating my birthday.

I just realised that I havent celebrated my birthday with my dad

for a very long time,

because he's always away for his work.

I miss all of the celebrations at home,

I stop celebrating my birthday at home since

I was 13, because of boarding school.

And I still remember my 13th birthday fell

on the date when my dad had to continue his work in the UK.

I couldn't contact my dad because it was during

orientation week and the form 1 students were not

allowed to use the public phones at all.

It was really heart-breaking.

But this's one of many things that I will definitely

share with my kids;

You will not always get to celebrate your birthday 

with your loved ones, every year.

So, when you do, appreciate it.

Due to the weird feeling

that I have; not to celebrate my birthday this year,

I did hide my birth date on Facebook.

Simply because,

I believe people only wish you Happy Birthday

because there's this one thing called Facebook Birthday Reminder.

When I did this,

only those who really remember

my birthday, will wish me.

That's more thoughtful :)

This year,

I am blessed to be studying abroad.

I also get to celebrate my birthday for two days.

Because Malaysia time is 13 hours ahead of Canada.

And having friends from all over the world,

NZ, Australia.

The feeling is very unique, indescribable.

The one and only person who wished me

twice was Qim~

The first second of 12th January of Malaysia time

and the first second of 12th January of Canada time.

Yeay, I am a happy girl.

I spent hours on facetime with my mum yesterday

and also hours on facetime with my ex-roommate, Aida.

Ahh good times :)

But tears can't be stopped tho,

I am crying while writing this.

Because the core reason why

I do not want to even remember 

that today is my birthday is because

my beloved ones are not here,

physically with me to celebrate 

this special day of mine.

I sound so pathetic, right?

But truth is,

as you're getting older,

(yes, 21 years old is old enough)

you don't want gifts,

celebrations.

You just want to be in your loved ones' arms.

I miss my family, best friends and definitely, Qim.

Haha, I should stop crying but I just couldn't.

Maybe I should do what google asked me to do

when I googled, 

how to celebrate your birthday alone :P

Or I should just,

sleep HAHA

Have a good day everyone.

And hello to the one-year older me :)

Tips : Travelling In A Big City

As I've promised...

NY is everyone's dream place,

especially if that person

is a Gossip Girl fan;

she would definitely want to visit all 

of the places where Blair and Serena always went to etc.

Those places are part of 1000 places 

I must visit before I die, haha

and ALHAMDULILLAH,

my dream came true!

A few days before going to NY;

"I have to dress like New Yorker!"

Laugh at me,

but I was reading an article,

telling me that I had to dress up like New Yorker

while in NY.

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DRESS UP LIKE A NEW YORKER IN WINTER?!

So,

I googled;

New Yorker Winter Fashion.

The pictures that I got were

knitted cardigans, expensive coats.

Nopeee, I have no money for that.

I would just wear the outfits that I had.

In most of the articles that I read;

they never mentioned about not to walk alone in NY!

(I bet because it was common sense, not to walk alone, because you'll never walk alone HAHA)

No, seriously!

DO NOT WALK ALONE IN NY!

I had three other friends, who're in the NY trip with me.

All for of us, always walked together

while riding on the subway etc;

but in the subway, heading to Manhattan,

there's a weird looking stranger;

covering half of his head,

looking at us like we're meat to eat.

It's scary.

He looked so suspicious.

So, we decided to get off the subway and waited for a new train.

As we got off the subway,

he was following us, it's so obvious.

We could no longer husnuzon, okay?

We're so scared, but still acted cool.

So we decided to walk upstairs, no longer staying underground.

Luckily there're NYPD officers upstairs, 

the man gave us the look, and disappeared.

We made sure he's not coming back,

then only we took the next subway.

It's very frightening!

People in NY, 

they're the same like any other city people.

Everyone minds his/her own business.

WALK FAST!

I was so pissed off with some couples,

who walked very slowly,

on a very busy avenue;

6th avenue where everyone

was pushing each other during NY's eve!

NY is not a good place for honeymoon,

overdue honeymoon is okay,

but not your first honeymoon!!

Dear future husband,

take note!

Greece is great place!

Or maybe you want to consider the whole Europe;

I am more than thankful for that :)

Next tip;

if you ever plan to visit all of NY attractions;

buy the NY pass;

it costs you 200$ for three days;

you can go to any places listed on the pass,

you don't have to queue to get into the place.

or if it's too expensive for you,

DO PURCHASE ONLINE TICKET!

You do not want to waste 5 hours of your precious time in NY

just to queue up for tickets.

We already bought our tickets online,

but we still had to queue to go up the Empire State Building.

(Approximately 2 hours)

Halal food stalls are everywhere in NY!

The hotdogs are nice, the lamb wrap is so gooood too!

TRY DOUGHNUT PLANT!

OMG, that's like the best doughnuts ever,

the best in NY! It's only in NY!

I like the Hazelnut Chocolate doughseeds.

I tried Hazelnut Chocolate doughseeds, Brooklyn one, Manhattan and Blackout one.

I can't remember which one is doughnut cake and which one is filled doughnut,

I just remember the cheesy names they have.

PLAN YOUR TRIP WELL

GET TO KNOW HOW TO USE THE SUBWAY

YOU MIGHT WANT TO WALK MORE, RATHER THAN USING SUBWAYS

because

the views are great!

If we took subway from the Battery Park to Manhattan,

we won't get to see Wall Street.

WALK MORE!

I wish I could spend more time in NY,

go to all of the museums that exist there.

Maybe one day,

I will come back.

But not this year,

I shall spend my money travelling to other places as well haha!

I've discovered a lot of things during this trip.

1. I rather spend more time in one place,

visit all of its attractions,

rather than going to many places, in rush, just for the sake of 

crossing off the place of my world map.

2. Good travel companions are essentials to have a memorable trip!

I love my NY buddies :)

3. It's always good to see new places,

but it's even better if you can take your family with you :)

I always feel like this whenever I'm travelling.

How I wish, travelling is not an expensive hobby.

4. The grass is always greener on the other side.

Whenever I saw Malaysians (only twice) or Indonesians,

I was so excited HAHA.

I feel like home lol

5. I should always keep in mind that I'm not gonna spend my money on shopping

before, and during the trip;

so I will not go beyond my budget :P

(yet I still spend ;))

6. This opportunity is not for everyone,

I am the chosen one,

Allah has made this possible for me.

A few days in NY, it makes me realise that

yes, with money, you can earn power, expensive clothes and bags,

live in luxurious apartments ;

but those aren't the purpose of us being created in the first place.

Money just tears us apart,

causes double standard,

causes the existence of words, poor and rich

and the more we seek for money,

the less money we can possess

because we can never have enough money.

We always lack of money.

With the money that we have now,

we shall use it wisely.

With that one LV bag you purchase,

you can pay school fee for a homeless child.

Cehh!

Haha, you can do both, that's for sure.

Juice Fasting Day 3 went wrong!

Idk what's wrong with the juice that I made,

but I guess the celery that I put was too much.

I didn't quite like the taste of my juice yesterday!

So,

today, I added on a tablespoon of ACV into my juice,

it turned to be sour,

I love sour drinks!

I am okay for today!

I finished class at 4-ish today and I've done

something I shouldn't be doing!

A sinful pleasure!

I was rewatching We Got Married, Yongseo couple HAHAHA

I should be spending my time studying, but

aigoo!

I only watched two episodes tho!

(trying to remember my NY resolution)

#lessonoftheday

Never judge a book by its cover

Toldcha! My first impression is alwaaaays wrong!

I had my CCOM 206 class just now,

Communication in Engineering.

Before the class started, I went to the bookstore,

I had to buy textbooks,

and I was contemplating whether I should buy 

Grammar Exercise book or not.

I guess my English is getting rustier by days,

I haven't been reading proper books tho

and also,

I didn't have my awesome English teachers here that could always 

guide me :/

I am also no longer in debate,

I don't involve in activities that has to do speaking anymore;

so it's not healthy for me.

I have to solve this problem!

This is due to the future things that I have to do;

applying for internships, jobs.

Do research papers and such.

Therefore, CCOM 206 is a course that I would want to consider.

I was 30 minutes early,

the class started at 2.35;

Friday prayer ended earlier today.

So yeah.

While waiting,

I saw a datin-looking lady,

also waiting outside of the classroom.

There's a French class going on in that classroom.

She looked so unapproachable;

You do know how a datin looks like, right?

Ok la, we have some datins in Malaysia,

who are extra friendly.

But some aren't.

They will look at you like you're from another planet;

looking at you from head to toe.

However, 

this lady wasn't looking at me from head to toe,

 but she just had that datin aura.

In my head, "I'm dead! She might be my instructor"

As we entered the class,

she started the introduction part and started the lecture;

OMG she's so nice! She's so sincere!

I can see that she's very passionate in teaching!

She's no longer has the datin image!

She was doing eye contact with everyone;

it was a very small class, which it consisted of 20-ish people.

Some of my friends are also in the same section as me;

so, that's so cool!

Her goals are clear!

1. She'll teach us how to use language accurately.

2. She will guide us how to communicate well as an engineer (research paper).

3. She will ensure we will write the best resume so good company can hire us!

4. She will guide us how to write business proposal using business language :)

OMG,

those are the exact things that I want to learn!

In that class,

there's an activity where we had to be a grammar Nazi 

and correct the 20 common mistakes that students always do.

She randomly picked a name,

and we had to correct the sentences.

My name was called,

and I was like *pengsan*!

It's not that I didn't know;

it's just that, 

I had to get it right,

for the pride of all my English teachers!

They taught me well in high school;

I didn't want to embarrass them!

"The sentence was wrong because it used 'compared with' instead of 'compared to' ",

nervously answered the question.

"Yes! Correct! Not everyone can see this mistake," she replied with

a very impressed look.

I was like

"Fuhhh! Thank God!"

But I still have a lot to improve tho, 

I have to start reading good books,

to enhance my vocabulary.

The learning process will never have

an ending to it.

I used to think that I was done with English class;

I was wrong.

Even if I was done with the formal English class,

I still have to learn more by myself.

As for now,

welcome to my desk!

Juice Fasting Day 2

Yesterday,

I'm done with juice fasting day 2!

I really love my juice yesterday

because it has kiwi in it!

Today,

I am struggling with juice fasting day 3;

ugh because I don't really like

the taste of kale and celery;

so I am drinking it while tutup my hidung!

HAHA!

But I shall do this, for my skin.

I dreamed of a flawless face last night,
I took that as a sign that what I do now is working!

There's slight improvement on my face,

I shall drink more green tea and apple cider vinegar (ACV) tho.

Oh, 

now I am using ACV as my toner;

I hope it works!

Btw,

the matcha green tea that I bought from amazon

is really effective!

It gives me energy and helps me to stay focus;

I love love love it!

I do hope it gives improvement on my skin as well.

As for now,

I have POLI243 class waiting for me!

(I am taking as many political science classes as I can,

because I am planning on taking it as my minor.)

Life In Canada

I thought this post should come after 

my NY post, 

but never mind :P

Someone asked me about life in Canada

and my answer is;

it's wonderful and definitely a golden life experience that everyone wants to treasure.

I really love and enjoy my life here.

If you plan on living here for the rest of your life,

that will be awesome too but 

some researches need to be done;

you have to consider everything first

because Canada is using federal system,

every system exists depends on it provinces.

ie,

the educational system, health care, taxation.

I live in Montreal,

in Quebec province and the tax is expensive!

15-16% for the tax!

Haha, but if you're planning on living here for the rest of your life,

do apply for permanent resident and 

if your kids are born as Canadians,

that would be a great advantage 

in terms of everything.

Tuition fee is cheap etc.

Canada does accept a lot of immigrants

but it generates its income from the immigrants too!

((Mainly because of the tax, Canadians have to pay only $3000 per year for university tuition fee,

and international students have to pay $33000!))

Thanks a lot to my sponsor for giving me this golden chance!

Canadians are super nice!

The reason why I think this post should come after my NY post

is because when I went to NY, they're not that friendly.

Even when you want to ask for prices in certain shops,

they answer you like you've done major mistakes,

they're like shouting to you hahah!

I know I can't judge the Americans based on some New Yorkers;

but so far,

every shop that I go here in Montreal,

or Ottawa or even Toronto;

they're super friendly and nice!

You will feel very welcoming!

That's one of thousands parts that I like about Canada.

Canada also has great views;

if you're not a city girl,

you'll definitely love Canada :)

xx,

petite Malay girl in Canada <3

Juice Fasting Day 1

The school hasn't started yet,

so I spend my whole day

doing useful stuff;

ie do the household chores,

laundry

and most importantly,

I read up articles about skin care.

I am obsessed with skin care.

I shall say,

I regret not taking care of my skin before all of these happen,

ugh. 

Acne and acne scars are not cool at all

and I hate using foundation and concealer.

After all,

they're not good for my skin too.

So,

I drink juice everyday

and on top of that, I drink 3 glasses of matcha green tea

added with apple cider vinegar.

I love how it tastes!

I am looking forward to see the result.

As for now,

"I love myself,

my skin and I feel fresh!"

--Things I tell myself every time after doing my skin care routine!

xx,

Aliah

Miracle Of The Word Allah ᴴᴰ | *Must Watch*

Now I understand why 

Muslim mothers will sing

La illaha ila Allah

as lullaby for babies to sleep.

It's really soothing and calming.

Can I be a baby again?

Am I too late?

New Year Resolution

I haven't done my New Year resolution yet for this year.

I can't think of any yet,

so I guess I need to do this, 

because if not,

I will be living without having goals 

and that's so not me.

(Didn't get myself a dUCK planner, so yeah :/)

I usually did my NY resolutions earlier but

I was just too busy with NY (New Year in New York :P)

#ohyeahhaventbloggedaboutthat

#later

During NY trip,

I am inspired by Brena's way of studying.

She's spending most of her time during the weekdays,

studying till 3am and Saturday is a complete off day,

then Sunday, full time studying of doing the lab thing.

I have been planning on doing that since last semester.

1. I shall be doing that this semester.

Studying everyday, 

only travel during holiday break.

I need to get better result this semester!!!

I am inspired with how Haseira does her monthly budget,

spending 20$ only for groceries per month.

And so

2. Spend less, save more!

I will stop spending my money on Starbucks and only drink green tea!

I also have milo, so that would be my chocolat chaud.

I also talk to Has and Brena about our travel planning,

and guess I shall save up more for travelling.

I like travelling and seeing amazing places, 

it brings me closer to Allah, 

isn't it good?

I mean, it's tres amazing!

#pardonmymixFrenchwords

Kak Rafidah is the one that inspires me to do all this detoxification thing, so I do what I think suits me (see my previous post). Hence..

3. I shall start living healthy lifestyle, hence I will do juice fasting 7 days in every month.

I shall eat more fruit and drink more juice and green tea.

I will also finish my vitamin on time and dance whenever I have time.

I shouldn't gain weight! Especially it's winter now. Ugh.

4.  See more of Allah's creations :D

Places I want to go this year, 2016

Vancouver

Chicago

Malaysia (I am damn homesick okay)

Singapore

Australia

South Korea, again

Spain

5. I want to blog at least once a week,

will try to fit that in my schedule.

6. Spend more time at home, make my room as library,

because it gets darker earlier,

and it's not good for me to go back alone, at night.

(I have to be good girl haha!)

7. Enhance my photography skill because I am still a noob.

So far, that's the thing I like most.

I am starting to be the girl behind the camera more hahah!

8. Read. I am lacking of time to read good books now,

so I shall start doing great things for my brain.

So, I shall reciting Quran everyday, insyaAllah.

9. I want to save up, to bring my parents to Umrah before/right after I graduate 

(definitely before I get married)

I really wanna be a good daughter,

because when I'm gone, 

at least my parents will remember me as the good daughter 

:)

10. Do good to everyone, keep in touch with old friends, replying to messages or emails

(I keep forgetting to reply the messages I've read. Pardon my short term memory okay?)

11. I will spend less money on unnecessary things. I think

I've stated this before I keep on forgetting this point, so

I shall restate whenever I could.

12. It's my favourite number, so I will write this for my favourite person.

Hi Qim! My new year resolution;

I will try avoiding being oversensitive and less selfish

and think more about your feelings because this whole relationship

is not only about me, but us.

Hence, I will try my best to do what I can do to mend what's not right.

But I still want my Tiffany&Co. no matter what :P

I hope I can fulfil all my resolutions.

To a better year.

Happy new year, everyone!

xx,

the name you'll never forget!

Yongseo?

Qim managed to persuade me to finish 

the whole We Got Married 

Yongseo couple

feat

Yong Hwa (CN Blue lead singer) & Seo Hyun (SNSD member)

And I fall in love with the series

and I cried, so badly during the last episode.

This is not normal!

But I have my own reasons tho!

(Defending myself for crying over Korean Show)

1. It's like a reality tv show, no script, they had to fall in love, act like they're married

but they had to end the show when they're given the last mission.

--This is cruel! Even on the last episode, both of them were really sad about it.

Okay, this tv show was released in 2010 and 2011,

I am so lame, I know, but still ugh.

2. The story line was so much of reflecting my life.

I asked Qim to read books that I like,

I gave storybook of us, that I made by myself,

like Hyun did, 

I feel the effort that we (me and Hyun) had to put in,

to show affection.

3. Yong was a basketball player!!! Ahh, so much of coincidence right??!

4. I did experience 1 month of not contacting Qim, we call that injury moments. 

When Hyun got mad at Yong, I totally understood that exact feeling okay?!

Girls have our own pride not to start conversation first!

5. Qim did make me a dreamcatcher because I really wanted it, 

like Hyun really wanted a knitted scarf and Yong did it for her!

I mean, different situation, but the effort was the same!!

6. I couldn't use informal language with Qim either,

Koreans call in banmal language, 

even we're at the same age.

Mainly because I respect him a lot.

(It's not easy okay to gain my respect :P)

7. I got mad, like Hyun. I got jealous like Yong.

8. Yong really loves Hyun's eyes and his line was familiar too!

Okay, there're too much of similarities that made me cannot move on from this tv show.

I keep on repeating certain episodes and it's so good.

The first and last Korean show I'm gonna watch!

Now I get it how people can get too attached with K-pop things.

There's something in their acting or appearances or personalities

that can attract people;

they're highly dangerous to me.
