2016

Good evening peeps

How are you guys celebrating the new year's eve? My homies and I are doing our korean drama marathon tonight since we had just done with our first exam paper this evening. So, we thought why not we just netflix and chill and watch korean drama all night HE HE HE.

I haven't posted so many things about 2016 in my social media but so far, 2016 has  been a roller coaster year for me. Well, I guess maybe one of the reasons could be the Final Year Project syndrome but then 2016 has definitely taught me about so many things i.e. telling me to become more independent than I was, be more patient, tahan sakit, cried all day long because of FYP and etc. There are a lot more. Not going to list down everything here.

Anyways, since it's new year's eve, I should be writing the sum up of my 2016. There are quite number of events for this year but I will only write the important ones.

Our very first and the last open house for Degree

My housemates and I decided to organize an open house for our degree friends. Pipster had already done with her degree. Hence, the cropped photo. Our first guest was Bubu, which was once a stray cat until we adopted it but it went missing during our sem break and the rest was history.

Kem Perkampungan Ilmu SMK Yaacob Latif 2016

I had a few times experience of becoming a faci but this was one of the most memorable one. This event holds a dear place to my heart as I had been going back and forth to Yaacob Latif to teach the students for their extra classes. This is also when the thought of becoming an educator came across my mind. Please note that I used to think that becoming a teacher/lecturer/educator is one of the very last occupations that I wished to be in. So, when I voiced out my decision to my mom,  she was overjoy to hear it.

Mira got hitched with her high school sweetheart

Yes, you heard it right. My high school friend, Mira, got married with her high school sweetheart last September. We had known about their love story for quite sometimes and it feels great to be seeing them tying their knot. She is the first one from our Yaacob Latif's batch to be getting married. Prolly will be seeing more next year, in shaa Allah.

Final Year Project: Proposal Defense

I defensed my very own proposal. The night before my proposal submission, I couldn't sleep at all. I was up all night, not being able to sleep at all due to my turnitin result (a website to check the plagiarism of your work) and alhamdulillah it all turned up well. Fanny and  I (supervised under Dr. Khong & she's also my teammate for both PeREKA and Cabaran Inovasi Inklusif 2016) received good comments from our second examiner and panels.

Cabaran Inovasi Inklusif 2016

The very third innovasion competition that I joined in UiTM. The first one was SIIDEX 2016 while the second one was PeREKA 2016. My team did not manage to bring back any awards. It was quite frustrating at first because we had been working on our product for quite sometimes. It's like, the feeling that you get when people do not see your product as a potential one. It hurts. Very much. But Dr. Khong, our beloved supervisor didn't want to give up. So we ended up joining this program. Alhamdulillah, we managed to win the Anugerah Khas award. It was indeed one of the most indescribable joy for me. Tears tears tears after sweat 

Find meh

And it was also my last day as one of the AJK of BCHEM (my faculty). It actually feels great because I do not have to juggle between another work and my studies but anyways, participating in the community had actually improved my soft skills a lot not to forget, we were also given the opportunity to handle an event of handling teaching lesson with primary school children. It took almost 6 months for us to work it out but anyways, we aced it!

In 2016, one by one of my cats passed away and the ones that I remember the most were Jude (momma cat) and Herby. Herby was one of the closest cats with me. It accompanied me when I was home alone, talked to me when I was bored and became all clingy with me when it was bored. It went missing for days (3 if I'm not mistaken) before Fahmi broke the news to me. I didn't cry at first but when I thought of Herby and its clinginess and its funny videos, I cried. I can't lie. I was very sad. My heart breaks to be finally accepting the truth that Herby was dead. That not having its company around me when I'm alone at home was heartbreaking, that it won't be there when I'm home and that I won't be able to carry  its heavy body at home. Rest in peace my dearest cats.

Anyways, let's hope that 2017 will bring more joy, make me a tougher person so that I won't cry over silly matters, that I will ace my FYP and degree years and in shaa Allah, I'm still giving a thought on pursuing for Master's. Please pray for me. I really need your du'as. In shaa Allah, let's pray that our prayers will be granted by Him and may we perform more good deeds than before. Ameen
