Didn’t sleep the whole of last night….Went to Aili and Za’s room to watch Peter Pan(!!!!) music videos on vcd!! Aaarrgghhh!! it’s a pirated vcd, there’s bound to be something wrong with it like thesame vidoe for two very different songs, and the wrong lyrics for the karaoke~ Stupid. Still, I enjoy it, ARIEL!!! Fave vid – Ada apa denganmu, Mungkin Nanti, Semua tentang kita.
Oh yeah, Shasha and kak Sar was there too. People are all loving Peter pan now!!!

And after drooling over Ariel, we watched Son of the Mask, which was supposed to be funny but we don’t exactly enjoyed it, other than the CUTE little baby!!! Most of the antics are exaggerated and it’s not Jim Carrey!! A violent movie it is~ But the baby is so cute!!! And then we chatted the whole night till 6am!!! From boys to marriages to kids nowadays and so many other things. I found it ‘enlighting’ talking to them. Like a refreshment or something like that. Because of the tests (which totally bubbled me) and the same type of people that I hang around with, so it’s a new thing to be hanging out with them. And now I’m ready to start a new day!!

Exams in two weeks’ time.

And the Singapore Futsal Girls’ team won the match again last night!!! I am so proud of them!! I’m having a sorethroat now for shouting too much last night but it’s not wasted since they won!!! And it’s well-deserved because it was a fast and hard match!!! The Indonesian girls were terribly fast and slick and it seems that they know the game very well now, compared to past matches. The girls were good. I had fun supporting them!!

The brothers’ team was not so good in the first match. They lost to Thailand 4-0!! Then the Indonesia lost to Thailand 4-0!! And then Singapore won to Indonesia 2-1!!! And that’s because our spirit were better after the girls’ won their match. Whatever the scores, we had fun and the most important thing was the friendship built between the three countries!! And may that lasts!

Go orange!!!

The test that was a matter of life and death for me….Religion test. I received the test paper and result today and…..I passed!!! Not just passed, but highest in class!! Alhamdulillah!!! I am really happy and grateful that I passed. I really am! Thank you God!
And the funny thing was, my lecturer passed me the paper without saying out my name and the thing was, we had never had any taaruf session in this class, so how did she know it was me?? Or maybe it was just coincidence. Anyway, I am now ready for the second test and the final exam, which will be in two weeks’ time. All the best Seri!

Highest in class, despite coming late to the test, which was not intentional, but a friend who ‘bubbled’ me, I’ve forgiven her, so I’ll stop at that. What matter was, I passed!!

These are recaps for the events of last wednesday~

Registration: Alhamdulillah, I managed to register the subjects that I plan to take for the short semester and first semester. Though it was nerve-wrecking and quite chaotic. I did my registration in the library, where I had sat there since 12pm and the registration started only at 5pm. But no choice. Have to be kiasu or we’ll lose. Anyway, it’s not only me doing it, there are others and my friends. Don’t care that my time-table is quite ridiculous- Monday/Wednesday -one afternoon class, Tuesday/Thursday – whole day, from 8am – 6.30pm, Friday- NO CLASS YEAH!!! What matters are that I get the subjects that I want! Alhamdulillah.

FUTSAL!!!: Later at night, there’s Futsal match. Singapore students organized it. Brothers= 3 matches with Indonesia and Thailand students, Sisters= 1 match with Indonesia sisters. It was FUN, EXCITING, ALIVE…whatever way you describe a futsal match. The borthers, of course, they played like real!! There’s even almost a fight between Indonesia and Thailand, but those are just gimmicks~ (wanna get kicked out of school because of a futsal match??!!) And the sisters were amazing!!! Singapore won 2-1. There’s going to be another match, this tuesday!

As for me, I was not in the team. But, I try to give them my best as a supporter! I tried making pom-poms with my very own hands, from raffia string. Quite nice and presentable, haha! And I had shout my heart out cheering for them.. I think I had the most fun of all~ Proud of the girls!! Can’t blame me, they are all my friends and a cousin. And the funny thing was, the sisters were much more happening cheering than the brothers, it should have been them doing the cheers more, but they seem more quiet! Tired of playing I guess, but come on!~

So I’m getting ‘ready’ for the next match, that is tomorrow~ I can’t wait!!

And at last!! I got to speak to Adit!!! I can’t believe it and still am…I don’t remember what exactly influence me that day but I really did talk to him! And it was a two- way conversation, it’s not only me doing the talking, and he did ask me questions. He is so cute!!

Anyway, I think the need started since we were in class… I was late, and the first person I saw when I entered my class was him and he was looking straight at me, adding to the embarrassment feeling I had, and I sat at the second row, which was easy for him to ‘accidentally’ look at me everytime he turned his head to my row. So that happened a few times. Then our lecturer had to go out, because a staff came in and gave out evaluation forms which we had to rate the lecturer. So when we had done that and the staff left, our lecturer was yet to return, so I went to the lecturer’s table, just as Adit was going to do something at the whiteboard, so, we ‘met’ at the table and he passed the attendance list to me, obviously he knows~ So I signed my attendance. And this Adit guy was being funny!! He erased the board and was scribbling something else that made his Muwalat friends laughed. And the lecturer came and class ended.

So now was the thing, me and Adit was on our way to class, which meant we went the same way. He was in front of me, so near and I was thinking, I should talk to him!! He was so near now and there’s none of his friends crowding around him!! And yes, I went to him, and he smiled, seeming surprised~ And the conversation started, I asked him how he rated our lecturer, and everything starts from there~

And now I know he’s actually from Kedah but lived all his life in Arab Saudi, no wonder the Arabic-speaking~ And he’s only a year younger than me and terrifically smart but playful~ And being naughty: I so like it walking beside him!! 🙂

I am having a nervous time at the moment…I’m in the library’s multimedia lab, and have been sitting here since 12 noon, waiting for 5 pm for the pre-registration of subjects for the next semesters. I am truly nervous because there are other people waiting like vultures, going to snap at any computer available and the problem, there is none. I am nervous because of the subjects that I want- worried that the sections will be closed or the time between classes may clash. Aaarrggghhhh I am nervous! And the situation around UIA is very tense~

Come 5 pm and everyone will be rushing like hell!! Chaotic!!!
Usually me and my friends will go outside campus to CCs for registration, but because tonight, there will be Futsal match, and most of my friends are players, we don’t have much time!!
Even now, so many others have been asking to be next in line after me….Don’t be mad at me, people~

ANNOUNCING…….The coming of a new blog: mypicjournal….which is basically a blog filled with pictures of my life in UIA….It’s under construction at the moment but I can’t wait to finish it soon!!!

There’s a link somewhere in here…check it out.

I guess I’ll be having the most important test of all, Studies of Religion 1 midterm test and I am nervous about it. There’s this need to pass in it. I NEED to pass that test! It’s a mtter of life and death~ metaphorically. Wish me luck!!

Maal Hijrah + Chinese New Year = 5 days holiday!!

And I have the opportunity to celebrate the new Islamic year in ‘heaven’ ironically named Janda Baik. Still, a heaven. It somewhere in the woods of a mountain, somewhere near Genting Highlands. There’s about 20 of us, Singaporean students, went there in a chartered UIA bus!!! Oh yeah, there’s also, a Thai and two ‘muwalats’ along. The place was amazingly beautiful! Man-made-cum-natural. The owner of the place is known as Pak Habib, a well-known political writer and as we found out there, a ‘spiritual’ teacher. There’s a mansion, nice on the outside, but not yet fully done, so we spent our 2 days/1 night in another ‘bangalow- kampung’. Nice place but a kampung, what do you expect. Still, that doesn’t bother us much. The nature and the river was the main attraction! Yes a river, a stream is more like it, was right next to the house!!! And the sound of water 24 hours for infinity~

We had fun games and congregational prayers…and the most important thing was welcoming the new Hijrah year in beauty. I really love it. And we had the stream all to ourselves!! Technically speaking~ The coolness, the pureness, I am so amazed.. We don’t have this kind of stream in Singapore!!

I really had fun there, and didn’t regret any minute of it! Hope to go there again soon.

Yesterday went to Midvalley again and bought and orange wallet!!! Yeah I know maybe I shouldn’t but the wallet’s cool and it’s about time for a new wallet.!! I gave the cute salesguy a hard time, asking him to bring out any cool orange wallet. There was a few others which are nice, there’s even a cool leather wallet but it costs RM70!! So I had to be satisfied with the orange wallet I bought. It’s striped with different shades of orange and yellow. That made me happy.

And am still thinking of someone but I’m beginning to teach myself to stop and let go of things. Maybe it’s not in my control. I really have to let go. I miss those old times but is there anything I can do to return to those times. Can I know what exactly should I be expecting?? It’s making me feel vulnerable not knowing what is happening? I think I’m going to ask him. Please give me the guts. Please help me Allah. Tell me what is the right thing to do. Or should I just keep quiet and turn my thoughts to You. I really don’t know what to do and thinking about this will always bring tears to my eyes. I have never been in this situation. So why should I face it now??
