Nita (S)t(u)dent Diary - day 4 | The future of NITASU

Salam/hi!

I know I'm late to update this (again). I have so much errands to do but I'm so glad that I made it to update this blog (even I'm 2 days late!). 

Anyways, NITASU . yeah, it has been few months now I have planned to introduce to you my fashion accessories line. I put a lot of ideas and effort in the whole process so I hope you will be supporting me <3

I hope NITASU will be a huge brand in the future. Not just a-business-run-by-college-student. I hope so. Fyi, I put the whole ideas by my own. I still couldn't find anyone I trust to be in my team. InsyaAllah, if NITASU is successful within next few months, I will find someone who I trusted enough to be on my team. InsyaAllah, Amiin.

Btw, the reason why I talked about NITASU on the DAY 4 is because  on this semester, I take Digital Entrepreneurship Development (DED) which needed my friends and I to run a business globally. yup, it's on another level  now. unlike last semester, our focus are more to the students but now, it is for the whole world. 

And by seeing this opportunity, Alhamdulillah I finally could focus on NITASU.

Nita (S)t(u)dent Diary - DAY 3 | Last Minute thing

salam/hi!

If you think this post is familiar... yeap you dang right.

Here is what I'm talking about: LAST MINUTE.

Taken by a friend of mine, ketlia.

I'm not sure if I have already told you about this, but I only have one class on Tuesdays & Wednesdays.

Unfortunately yesterday (I updated Day 3 on Day 4 so... yeah...), our one and only beloved class is postponed. So, my friends and I decided to register MUET (Malaysian University English Test). Alhamdulillah there are a few seats for us. We have been told that our 'college' only takes 200+ students for MUET. 

Right after we registered MUET with our lecturers, we went to bank to buy the pin number. so mahal one. I swear I was thinking either I should take it or not because I don't have much money now. Alhamdulillah, I have some money on my bank so I decided to use my money to buy the pin number.

tbvh with you, I'm not good at saving money. I kinda suck when it comes to save money.

Ok maybe can la save money but I don't know how to stop from wasting money on the stuff I shouldn't buy.

Being in this situation, I always feel helpless because I can't save myself.  I only know to use money for my own unnecessary stuff and I should stop this from now.

Listen kids, if you want to survive uni life - please save your money. use your money for necessary stuff ONLY. A lot of things might happen if we not being careful from the beginning. Start to save money for emergency because we don't know what's going to happen in the future.

Stop talking about that. Let me just rant something on here -

Basically my lecturer gave us assignment to do and guess who do it last minute?

Yes, that's me.

lmaooooo I was so sleepy last night to just finish my assignment and I'm regretting it!!

 That's the reason why I hate to do important works last minute because I know it will ended up like this. I hope in the future, I will not be like this anymore.

Nita (S)t(u)dent DIARY - DAY 2 | Communication is the key

Salam/hi!

I thought i'm about to update DAY 2 right after I updated my Day 1 but that's kind of impossible since I need to do a lot of things.Plus, my battery is getting low. So, I decided to charge it first for awhile before I update another blogpost.

The best thing happen today is - ONE CLASS ONLY.

I feel super excited when I get to know that I have one class for the whole day today... and tomorrow which means more sleep on these two days #priority

Today I attended my Communication English class. I love how my lecturer approached us. She embraced us to be braver when it comes to communication (especially in English) It's okay if we can't speak in English fluently at least we tried. 

She even told us that we should work to find experience first before we have our real job one day. She also told us to dream big so that we will work hard to achieve it. And there's a loooooooot of life lessons she told us today. Unfortunately, I can't type everything on here because sis is busy hahaha

 So, have you plan your life yet?

x, Nita.

Nita (S)t(u)dent Diary - DAY 1 | "Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta"

Salam/hi!

I just want to let you know that... urm... I updated the Day 1 on the 2nd day because yesterday was an exhausted day! My schedule is super packed for Mondays and Thursdays. Plus, my roommates are about to sleep when I wanted to update Day 1. I think these are relevant excuses, right? Hahahah

Getting know with new lecturers and meet my previos lecturers are the best part of the day actually. Like, we asked each other what had happened during the sem breaks and our lecturers asked our pointer too! (seram!) 

What I like about 1st day is, it is always be about letting us know what will we learn for the next classes, getting know about our new lecturers' backgrounds and so much more.

Meeting our previous lecturer is not that bad too! we talked about the final exams like how lucky we are that we got the last semester's final paper as ours too! Like, it is exactly the same question! and how proud they are for our GPA and banyaklah! 

I just love the vibe of the 1st day. it just a chill day, no stress... but not until the 100-ish days though... you will find a  lot of angry, sad, disappointed blogpost on those days. trust me.

x, Nita.

The Power of Dua

Salam/Hi!

Final exam is just around the corner and it is the time when I will get exhausted the most. Projects that need to be submitted, study for my finals and so much more. This is the time I tried to connect with Him more and I wish that I'm not THAT selfish but trust me, I'm being one right now... 

Anyways, I want to share this Dua with you because for the past few weeks, I always feel at ease even though the pressure is everywhere due to the new projects, last minute plans etc.

I don't have the real version of this Dua but maybe there's similar one. I hope you will always at peace when you read this Dua. Amiin. 

I asked Allah;

"Ya Allah, permudahkanlah urusanku sepanjang hari ini"

I just discovered this Dua and wallahi, I always feel at peace even though everyday we have new (last minute) projects. Share with me if you have one Dua that always you read after prayers!

InsyaAllah, it works to us, who always pray to Him, Amiin!

See ya when I see ya,

xoxo.

I'M IN MAGAZINE?

Salam/hi!

I know you must be very curious why the fish am I in a magazine? But the real thing is my first project in my multimedia class is editing magazine! Anddd it has been done few months ago and I decided no to share with you until I got my result, so that I can share with you how many marks I got but I really couldn't wait to let you know so here's the magazine!

For this project my classmates and I were given a task to edit only the cover magazine actually, not the whole magazine hehehe. Oh, I haven't told you that? My bad! 

It doesn't necessary to put our face on the cover magazine but you know, I loveee to be extra 👀💁

Disclaimer: This magazine is just for assignment, I do not do this for sale. 

Buh-bye!

My first mutuals.

Alhamdulillah, I just finished my semester one and currently in my sem break (read as: food hunting time). Everything went good so far for the past 5 months. I met new people in new environment. You know, I was in the 'dorm' environment. I learned to do most of the things by myself, ok you can actually simply say this as 'discipline', hehehe. 

Woke up in the morning as early as 5AM, breakfast at 7, continue to sleep until 10AM and then started to think about lunch at 10.01AM #thestruggle, study and the list goes on until I sleep around 11PM. I told my new friends here that I always sleep early. They laughed at me. I guess I'm just being too good kot. kot la. hahahaha. Who would have thought I met a lot of people with the same attitude.

Ever since I was a kid, I'm used getting called 'macam mak orang'. Trust me, a lot of people said I'm mature than my age.

Oh by the way, why I told you 'the same attitude'? I met these people when I was in my high school. Maybe that's what makes me looks matured. Like, I seriously could know the personality of certain people instantly by watching them.

I still remember 5 months ago when I started my Diploma. My room mates are crazy I told you. At first, one of them 'looks' like she will have this 'gila-gila' attitude. and I AM RIGHT! She is! Hahahaha.

                      

  

[besides me is Zahidah, at the bottom of this pic [from L-R]: Sharifah & Lia

Look at us now, saying goodbyes to each other today because the three of us (4 students in one room) have just finished our last paper today meanwhile the other one still haven't finished her exam yet. I hope she can do her best for her papers! #saynotoREPEAT hahaha


A lot of memories to be remembered., from me crying like a baby while shaking hands with Sharifah (read as Ipah 😂) til me tercekik makanan until my voice can't be heard! OMG it hurts a lot because I laughed at my own jokes while eating on that time, #thatswhy

Arghh, I hope these memories will always be in my head.

See ya on the next sem, everyone! Take care!

My Study Journal! 2017

Salam/hi!

Ok, back to the square one. I'm pretty sure if you follow my Instagram, you'll know that I have decided that I want to make a new blog aka website at squarespace.com but then I realized I don't have much income to pay all of the subscriptions. So here I am! Back to my blogspot! I couldn't believe that I did that hahahah Sorry blogger.com, I deceived you. T_____T

Ayyyy, It's September now huh? I couldn't believe it that I'm here talking about how fast times fly while I'm doing my study journal. Felt surreal that I have another one month before my Semester break! Of course, there will be last minute assignment, revision I need to do for my final exams and the list goes on.

I've made my study journal even from on the last April but I didn't think that I was ready to share with you until few months past, here I am about to leak all of my study journal in hope every students out there have some ideas to plan their study well! ♡

As you can see on the photo above, that's how my September 'title page' looks like. I ain't that creative but in case you have some ideas you would like to add, go ahead! Play with colours and some good-looking handwriting so that you can be more motivated to update your journal day by day!

ASSIGNMENT

On the first page of the month, I write down my assignment in one whole page. This is depending on how your college/university works. Some of us have a little assignment and some have lots. It is ok if this is your first to do this. There will be a lot of try and error in making a perfect journal. I have a lot of mistakes on my previous journal but I try to improve it month by month.

What I Put On My Page (Assignment)?

• Date
• Subject
• To-Do/Descriptions
• Due Date
• A Tick Box

I think on this page I just love it to be more simple by putting on a box rather than something complicated like a LIST but if you enjoy list more, you can absolutely do it!

EXPENSE TRACKER

Move on to my next page, it is my 'expense tracker'. This is the best part of the journal (to me) actually. Hehehe I love to know where does my money go to. Is it for fun or is it going to meal that I bought everyday?

Here's the tips and tricks:

1. make sure you know your budget for the a whole month

2. Think, is it going to be enough for the whole month?

3. make sure you updates your expenses everyday so that you know where it goes at the end of the month.

4. Don't update it few days after you spent your money because I know you are going to forget everything happened on the last few days. Hahahah it always happens to me. I need to take time to just remember what did I buy on the previous days Hehehehe

What I Put On My Page (Expense tracker?):

• Budget
• Date
• Description
• Amount
• Need & Want boxes

FAQ: Why do we need to NEED & WANT BOXES?

This is somehow something we want to check at the end of the month, like a conclusion (?). We will know where does our money go to. Is it really something we NEED to buy or just our desire?

If you noticed there are a lot of WANT BOX ticked, it means you have to control your desire for the next month? geddit geddit?

SOLAT TRACKER

Well, this is an optional. I think as a Muslim, we need to have this kind of tracker so that we can do self-reflection. As a normal human, we realized we did a lot of sins towards our Creator. I think to remind ourselves on how we behaved being a normal human/slave is to always remind ourselves that we are not that good. We did mistakes too.

What Is In My Page (Solat Tracker)?

•  Date
• Subuh, Zuhur, Asar, Maghrib, Isya;, Dhuha

BLOG AND YOUTUBE 

Ok, I think this is an optional? Hehehe As a lvoer of these social media platforms, I love to make sure that at least I have planned some stuff that should be done. Even there are some times I don't really update as what I have written on my journal but it's ok! Hehehehe

Ok, I think that's all from me! How about your study journal? 

Have you made it? Or are you still looking for some ideas on how to do it?
If you have done it, may I have a look on it? Share it on your social media and tag me! (@nitzforshort Instagram/Twitter)

Or maybe you would like to add any pages on my study journal? Let me know on the comment box below!

Did I just...

Have you read my Nadia's birthday shout out post? If yes, here's a behind-the-scene post!

OMG OMG OMG

Okay so yesterday I was ACCIDENTALLY slept in the evening! I didn't even know when I slept until I woke up around 6pm and straight away took my wudhu' in rush. 

I actually had group discussion on that night. Sadly, I felt so dizzy and I told my team to stop the discussion around 9.50PM and told them we should continue this discussion tomorrow night.

Guess what?

I. CANT. SLEEP. 

Last night was such a nightmare to me. I couldn't sleep until 4.00AM! I even did a movie marathon (I watched 3 movies, X-men The First Class, X-Men Apocalypse and Shrek Session 4) and managed to write Nadia's birthday shout out (nasib baik sempat, fuh!) 

I finally could sleep around 4 and I woke up again on 6ish am. Thank God I could wake up like usual!  I was sleepy today but I managed to wake myself up in my classes! Fortunately the classes weren't boring at all so I made myself woke up till the last class!

I swear, this is the last time I slept in the evening!

Could you imagine, I just slept for 1HOUR and I needed to waste my 6HOURS sleep for that! Urghhh

Now I know why there's a saying 'masa itu emas' (translation: time is gold), because it really is! It was actually on our break time, gotta make it worth it!

That's all from me! Thank you for reading!
Buh-bye! Assalamualaikum!

The Struggle.

Salam/Hi!

While writing this, I'm in the warden office because I need their signature before I go back home. Note that we need to have warden's permission to go out ONLY on Monday - Thursday. I want to go back home on Thursday so, here I am with my (almost 20) friends & seniors included.

Fortunately, this office is comfortable enough for me to just sit and stare people. My connection line here is somehow so slow -_____- 

I never experience living in dorm so I think the struggle is REAL here. I thought asking for warden's signature is easy — BUT IT's NOT! Read more if you want to know why I said that. 

One week ago.

My friends and I were asking people (note: seniors) and willing to call warden because we eagerly wanted to go back home on Thursday (because we didn't have any class to attend on Friday too)

I was the one who called each of our level's warden (each level has warden in charge). Imagine, I need to call 3 different warden just for THEIR SIGNATURES.

My warden's friend is her warden's block (something like the leader of the block) 

Maybe she had a bad day, I almost got scolded by her 😂 She told us that we should get warden's signature on the night before the day we want to go back home! Urgh!

23:14,

Now

Around 10pm, our warden is finally there. We are queuing like worms 😂

Ok that's all for today. 

Thank u for reading! Love u!

- I'm writing this on the iphone's note while waiting for the warden in charge! Hehe -

Step By Step

Salam/hi!

I was never a person who knew how to do laundry. Maybe I know but then I simply forget because most of the time, mak is the one who does the laundry. It just there was one moment mak went to kampung and I did the laundry all by myself.

I’ve been in my college for 2 weeks. I learned a lot day by day. Like, how much amount I need to put on my baldi for a certain clothes, what to do if my clothes are not dry yet etc. I started to study which spot that my clothes will dry faster, what time I can do laundry peacefully (because only God knows how many students at my dorm’s level)

I learned a lot.

Growing up is sucks. I warn you (to my little readers out there). Be prepared. You need to manage everything by your own. No one is going to help you. I hate this fact because when I was registering myself into college, I needed to do all by myself. I was afraid (ok I know I'm a bit jujur). A lot of things came into my mind. "What if I did the wrong step? What if they didn't want to accept me? What if.." Everything came into my mind.

But it's okay because 

I’m still learning. We are still learning.

Step by step.

The 1st Week

Salam/hi!

Wow, I never imagine I could survive my week without BLOGGING! It feels so awkward. I really wanted to blog but I couldn't because of the busy schedule I had with my new school!

How was the first day?

- If you ask me, I felt bad on the first day. Not because of the school but I was burst out crying knowing the fact that I'm about to leave my family for awhile to pursue study. I pursued my study in my own negeri. It takes around 1hour to go there but here I am, crying a river! But still, I'm so glad I wasn't sent to a further place.

1st Day

Ok to be honest, I almost forgot what happened. Here's a bit about what happened on that day.

I registered on Sunday. Around 1PM, we were asked to gather at the mosque. After that we went to the main hall and all the facilitator were there. We received the orientation week's tentative on that time.

I met a few new friends, well basically I'm close with my room mates. I was so happy to know that 3/4 of my room mates take the same course as me. For sure I will not going to be alone when I need to go to our class! hehehe

2nd Day

In the morning, we were busy to register our course in the main hall. I was one of the first one to finish up my registration with my lecturers. Guess who slept the entire registration period? Me.

Around 12.30PM, we were asked to go to the mosque to perform solat Zohor and after that we went to the hall again to hear speech from the lecturers.

This was a photo of me, in the mosque of my college while waiting for my turn to read Quran (tadarus)

3rd Day

Full of speech today. From the start untill the last. Can you guess again who slept the entire day? 

Correct! Its's ME!

This was after Subuh while watching some of the videos that the facilitator showed us. I was slept the entire period also.

Today, we were allowed to wear any kind of attire (as long as it is covering your aurat)

Oh, I forgot to mention, the entire orientation week we were asked to wear black and white attire but today they allowed us to wear bebas!

The night before the 4th day aka the day I went back HOME! I've packed everything and just get ready to Zzz.

4th Day

One of the amazing day. We sang, we danced, we knew each other better. Today was the day I met my main lecturer (something that we called guru kelas when in school)

Everything was fine because I can't wait to go back home and I've already told my family I will be back around 2 PM because that's what the schedule said. The event of today will be ended on 2 PM.

Unfortunately, I was told by one of the facilitator that THEY MIGHT ENDED THE EVENT ON 4PM.

I WAS SHOOK.

I called my parents immediately that they don't have to pick me up now (around 1PM). I will call them once the event has ended.

I was mad because why they didn't tell us it might ended late? 

3PM later, the event finally ended. I straight away called my parents to pick me up. Thinking I have one hour to get ready, I just go shower and get ready while waiting my parents to pick me up. well, the plan is I want to straight away go back home after the event has ended so I don't have to get ready, shower and so on... Tapi tu lah, malang tidak berbau...

Sitting on the corridor while waiting for my parents to pick me up

Ok, I think that's all I want to share for today. InsyaAllah I'll update more everyday!

Talk soon, buh-bye!
