Hi. There's quite a number of you guys who ask for study techniques. Bear in mind that the techniques used by different people might have a different impact on the other. Like I said most of the time, it all depends on you. Yes, you can change it to adapt your style and the most important is you need to follow your own rules! These RULES: 1. Put away your mobile phone or gadgets. 2. Make sure you study in a conducive environment. (Meja kemas, alat tulis cukup, buku tersedia) 3. Habis 1 hour (1 subject), get yourself a 5 minutes break. 4. Avoid distractions and noise, patuhi jadual peribadi anda.  5. Itqan (bersungguhlah!) After making prayer, let's get started :)    NUMBER 1 Always plan! You can plan for 1 hour per subject or spend more time on that subject if it's difficult. Here's a tip: Look at your exam results and take out the subject/s that you got C and below. This is the subject that you need to focus more and find the solutions to ace it. Buat...

It's me, again. :P tbh, I forgot about the things I should write for part two. Oh, maybe more about my own experience. So I went into the hall, alone. My friends were already inside. The surrounding was full of people - turquoise robe with different colours of the hood, family members and friends were everywhere. The noises of people selling flower bouquet, parents lining up to enter the hall, and many more. Since I arrived right on time, I couldn't stroll in UIA to see more of the convocation settings. You know, the STANEX (I don't even know wth is that), CONVEST at Convest Hill which is far away from the ICC, the booths set up around the mosque's compound and what not. The day was sunny and hot so I was noted by siblings that they're spending their time mostly in the mosque. Meanwhile, my parents are busy with selfie and videotaping the event - some kind of "live update" of my day to the other family members. Back to the process, as I went insid...

12|11|2017 A day before convocation, where dramas were everywhere. Living with more than 3 women in the house, you can smell estrogen at every single perimeter. PMS, mood swing - all girls stuff *wink*  Nonetheless, it's me, not them. :/ I cried silently for two days consecutively because I feel like I'm a burden to all. I even think to go to the ceremony alone, kah. Yelah, they ponteng sekolah for me [I know they like it even more  -____- ], my parents need to take leave, plan for the long journey to KL with the lots of anticipation of the ceremony since this is their first to experience. I myself couldn't stop thinking about how the day would be; the traffic, the crowd, the place [up till now, I never feel like the campus is my place. Idk, IIUMK di hati maybe].   So the night before, I talked to him. Pouring all tears the eyes couldn't bear any longer, soon the words that came out from his mouth soothed my bitter heart.  "all these untuk...

Bismillah sebagai pembuka bicara seorang mahasiswi yang baru dikurniakan segulung ijazah yang berharga lebih daripada ribuan tangisan di malam-malam kuiz dan examnya, yang lebih mahal daripada expenses hujung minggunya selama 4 tahun, yang lebih bermakna daripada tidur malamnya yang dikorban demi complete submission yang tak mudah melepasi tahap OCD nya. Alhamdulillah, sujud syukur kepada Ilahi yang mengizinkan aku melepasi fasa ini dengan aman. Terima kasih buat ibu bapaku yang sentiasa positif, sentiasa ada. Terima kasih buat adik-adik dan ahli keluarga yang sentiasa menyokong. Big thanks to the lecturers, for the knowledge, time and patience for my foolishness being reduced day by day in pharmacy school. Hats off to RX12, we finally did it. The days before my convocation are spent with disappointment and a deep feeling of nothingness. I repeatedly monologing "Di sebalik jubah ni ada anak yang sering menyusahkan".  Before I went through with stories, let me cle...

I appreciate how Allah puts me in this hurdles where I pricked my own self with needles of disappointment, I hung the egos in trees of anger, I cried a rainfall in the nights that I couldn’t sleep thinking about how rude I was, I pledged to myself not to be like how I used to be but I broke my own rules. He tests me with the unsettling feeling over and over due to the failure of change. It wasn’t easy.  As I look back, I’ve been walking away quite further from the old me.  Do I deserve a recognition? No.  Do I need appreciation? No.  Do I have to let go of everything? Depends.  Do I have to be grateful? Absolutely.  This life is the place to grow into a better person every day. 

Things to do before convocation - IIUM convocation. 1. Clearance Once your status changed to "GRADUATED" from "ACTIVE", you can simply settle the clearance with a phone call. Check the status  here. I-ma'luum > click your photo/name > profile > you'll see the status [GRADUATED] or [ACTIVE] You cannot do the clearance if your status is still ACTIVE. a) My service > SCS [Student Clearance System] b) My service > iGrad (application for graduation) These are two things to be done. Finance - the first thing to be settled. Saman, yuran dan sebagainya hendaklah dilangsaikan. This can be settled after you've finished your study that final semester; before going back for good.  Library - boleh walk-in dan boleh call.  Mahallah - the last one to call. This is also can be done during checking out and return key. Security - usually saman je la kot.    Important Number (You'll search for it yeah) MUK: 09-5730841 ...

Hi again. :) This entry is for those who want to choose and to give you a clearer view for you to make a decision. Just in case you're neutral, any subject to be done first is none of your concern, then this entry is an overview of the new challenge. For those who haven't read the first part,  click here. First cycle: HOSPITAL Duration: 6 weeks  Accommodation: provided.Those who'll be attached in HTAA will be staying in mahallah.  Documents: A logbook and daily diary will be provided in softcopy.  References: Latest CPGs, BNF, Lexicomp, Sarawak Handbook of Medical Emergency, Renal Pharmacy Handbook, Dipiro, etc.  You'll be assigned to two cases per week but if you wish to learn more, feel free to clerk more patients. The situations differ from hospital to hospital. During my time in HSNZ, 2 cases to be clerked and presented to the hospital and university preceptor each week. You need to prepare in both report form and powerpoint slide f...

Hi. * waving awkwardly * As the title says, I found it to be a lingering issue in the mind of some of my friends who are currently in their first semester of final year. Which should be done first in your final semester of B.Pharm?  Bear in mind, the final semester is the crucial part because that is the time to see where you are actually standing. As for me, the way I look at myself at that time - whether I am competent enough to be a pharmacist in my final year of study and which field I should encourage my tiny self in.  Basically, the very last semester of IIUM B.Pharm consisted of two parts; the industrial training worth 6 weeks of pharmaceutical industry working exposure and the clinical exposure in 6 weeks of interesting but hectic hospital attachment. The batch will be divided into two large groups and later, the subgroups will be formed for each subject.  Let me spill a bit of my experience during my time.  HOSPITAL ATTACHMENT TIPS & ...

I went to my uni last week with some reasons I made to make a worthy journey there (financially). It was a long journey but I enjoyed the bumpy ride. Arriving in the midst of the night, I forced someone loved to fetch me. It feels different after months of not being in the same environment. That en.vi.ron.ment. Because I'm not going there on the basis that I will repeatedly be going back and forth to the place, but to have only a journey there without plans of going back there. Not necessarily  "pergi tak kembali"  but  "pergi tapi entah bila nak datang semula" . That feeling is the one that ripped me off that night.  Flash forward, now I'm safe and sound at home as a full-time self-employed maid. It's a life by choice career for all functioning women, whether you like it or not. I somewhat like it though it is tiresome. The pearls of staying at home post-graduation are that I learn to cook a whole-course meal - the main dish, side dish, desse...

I didn't expect any but a more relaxed life after BPharm. It turns out to be a bored, waiting for something unconfirmed and life with a repeated routine. You're unemployed (mostly), broke, atrophic brain (unless you've started studying and playing memory games) and contemplating the slow-moving pace. Well, apparently, the life shouldn't be like that if you know what to do with your life. I didn't say that stay-at-home as an unemployed young adult is useless but the term of "berguna" applies only if they know how to make the time valuable and productive. It's your life and the choices are yours to make. Whether to lead boredom conquers life doing nothing, or to make life interesting and productive even if you're jobless. Here's something to think. The hikmah for those who still at home with endless chores and same routine every day until SPA interview are 1. You can always spend most of your time with family. Cook for them, make the pa...

"Everything that starts will come to an end" When I was in primary school, I wait for UPSR. Aced it, well done. Growing up in secondary school, time became slower. As if I'm not moving forward until I got all A's in PMR. I went out from the dark hole to a boarding school in Selangor. School's finished and I aced it again with more A's in hand. Then, I'm done with school. Not to forget the days I'm counting for MCE to be over and be no longer an underage. That was the end of the school years which indicates the college years will begin. Not long after that, I was enrolled in a local foundation center. Study was a problem to me after months of not studying. Though it is not the first time of being away from parents, that was the first time of going into the real world as an adult. A new adult. Or I call it a teeny adult. Moving forward day by day, conflicts after conflicts and then I'm done with foundation studies. It ends just like that. Ev...

FRIDAY - a FRI-YAY 25th August 2017 The second last Friday as a teacher. I felt a little spark of joy inside me realising the fact that the job is going to an end. yeeehee! Despite that, some part of me feels like I haven't give the best yet. I want to see the change, in manners and attitude. I should be the change. (But all I do is changing my mode thru the lessons every day)  I posted on Facebook about the nature of children that kids will always be kid. Though the life is dark, the past is darker and the surrounding people are influencing the badness, they are still innocent yet ignorant. They don't know things. The adult does. The horrendous stories I heard from the teachers made me more than grateful for growing up like none of them. I have parents to take care of me, I have a family that prioritizes education and love - a real family love. However, the children are growing up in a gloomy environment. Separating mom and dad, sexual harassments by their own bloo...

Hi peeps. :) I'm looking for some time to write about what others think about me. Some throwback of my graduation dinner memories and what Pharmacy School of IIUM shape me for being who am I today. There's so much to write about, so much to tell. The stories I told are for me to keep, for my generation to find out and for the history to be remembered and learned from. But that time seems to be a bit out of sight now so just wait for the post, randomly updated from time to time. Probably when I am unemployed, back. weehoo.

Yeah, hired! As a teacher. Wow. K. Here's how it happen. First, application. 1. Isi borang permohonan sebagai guru sandaran tidak terlatih (GSTT) di PPD (Pejabat Pelajaran Daerah) - this can be obtained by manually collecting it at the office or you can simply download it from the PPD's website. 2. Sediakan dokumen-dokumen yang diperlukan dan sahkan. Salinan kad pengenalan  Salinan sijil akademik (sijil SPM / ijazah / etc)  Salinan sijil lahir  3. Hantar borang yang lengkap beserta dokumen-dokumen tersebut ke pejabat PPD. (Hantar dengan doa doa sekali gaiss)  4. Tunggu panggilan temuduga.  Chronology of my case:  Ramadhan 2017 - application form submission  Post Syawal July 20th - interviewed and directly hired.  July 26th -  a substitute teacher. A cute one they said. ouch!   So yeah, 

Hello. :) As I am writing this, it was at twilight in the third week of me being a teacher. A substitute teacher. I was so delighted when I got the call for the job interview - it was unexpected and out of my field. Somehow, I was pretty much scared but at the same time excited to be back in school. I'd do it anyway. Bracing my unemployed self. In the first week, I'd say that the feeling is like being a shiny new toy. You're the attraction and every child that came passing by you try to look at your upper side of the left chest just to have a glance of your nametag. How I wish I was a lot taller then haha The awkwardness was so to the maximum level on the very first day. What am I supposed to say? How should I handle them? What should I do to make them listen or at least be quiet or a little less noisy? I stand confidently in front of 16 - 29 children each day but only Allah knows how nervous I am and how little I felt being around the children. I need to teach f...

[free and easy entry] I had finished my degree study weeks ago. 3 weeks to be exact. The feeling is so relieving and calming that you do not need to wake up early to go to lecture, you don't have any deadlines, you are requirement-free and other superficial *loncat-loncat* happy feelings of graduating from a degree.   but, deep down inside I do agree to some points that you're going to miss all those hectic moments of being a student. Cincaa..   2013/2014   Year One. Gosh masa ni noob habis. Semua rasa baru, except the packed schedule lah sebab one year foundation compared to other colleague yang biasa free-and-easy 2 year foundation. All of pharmacy students (female) being placed in Mahallah Tabari. Mahallah yang tercampak di luar campus compound, no other choice of place to eat except the cafe and lifeless compared to current condition. That time, m...

You stayed up until it's two in the morning. Or maybe you just stayed till idk maybe three because you didn't even check the clock while revising. Then the brain couldn't have enough time for memory consolidation. You're too exhausted, the short-term memory in the hippocampus is fading. Why? Because there's no repetition.  Try the deal - pre-read, read details and reread.  Failed.  Everything I read seems to be locked inside but when I see the questions, I have no idea what I just read a couple of days ago. Checked the notes, (mengucap panjang) syukur ada lah juga ilmu fissudur yang Allah tolong. itupun Allah tolong.  Guessing. Its like throwing darts to target but the target is in clouds. Unbearable to be seen in naked eyes. in other words,  You have no idea about what you're guessing about. Then nak kerja yang melibatkan people's life?  Gila. Cuba lah, cuba. belajar kerana ilmu. Cuba, belajar sebab minat nak...
