The New Semester

Welcome semester 2!! My first class will start on Tuesday and the busiest time would be on Thursday. class from 8am until 8pm.

I'm not positive about this semester but life need to go on...

I have 4 subjects:
  • Macro Analysis
  • Micro Analysis
  • Econometrics
  • Monetary

At first, I registered for International Finance, but apparently, the class clashes with my other class. So, it's a last minute decision to opt to monetary. I'm back to my original study plan which I've submitted to JPA last year. The lecturer sounded nice on email. So, hopefully everything work out.

My biggest fear is of course my maths. I'm not good at it. I need a lot of practice to get it right. Not to memorize it, but when I'm doing practicals, I'll be able to understand my mistakes and hopefully, I will not repeat the same mistake.

Though I said that I'm not positive, it's not that I lost hope and stuffs, it's just that maths and memorizing wasn't my strongest suit. Anyway, I need to put extra effort to be excellent, most of us need to, it's not that things will work out the way you intend to if you don't put your heart and soul in your work.

Hubby, mama and ayah has been supportive. My sister has been supportive too. Especially hubby and mama. So, I really need to be extra hardworking. Last semester was a shocker for someone who despise economics subjects like yours truly.

I miss home so much and it makes me think 'what was I thinking leaving home?'

Good luck, me!

My Nenda


Nendaku telahpun kembali ke rahmatullah pada 20 Februari 2012 jam 8.45 malam. Al-fatihah buat nendaku.

Semuanya bermula pada waktu Hari Raya Haji 2011. Nendaku was diagnosed with lung cancer and that cancer dah merebak ke kawasan esofagus, menutup esofagus dan menyebabkan nendaku tidak dapat makan seperti biasa. Sekiranya nendaku ingin juga makan seperti biasa, akan mengakibatkan muntah-muntah dan bleeding.

Towards the final days of her life, her condition worsen. She was vomitting blood.

I love my grandma so much. When I was attending her, she told me the story when I was in my primary school. It's about my baby cow, Bujang Longot. She wanted to sacrifice my baby cow, Bujang Longot, during Hari Raya Haji. I love my baby cows, I was so attached with them. And here, uwan told me how she was trying her best to sent my Bujang Longot early, before I wake up, so that I wouldn't cry.

I never thought that she would remember these things.

My grandmama taught me how to cook curry, that's why I love curry so much. I can eat curry everyday. It even taste better with kicap Tamin. I remembered coming back to my uwan's house during one of the weekends when I was in Kolej Matrikulasi Negeri Sembilan (KMNS). That was the first time I ever cook anything for my grandmama. It was kurma ayam. I love kurma ayam too. I've told her that I'm going back to her place and want to cook kurma ayam. She bought all the ingredients for me and when I arrive, I started cooking. After cooking, I went to take a nap. Then I heard a visitor coming. Being me- the lazy me, I didn't wake up from my bed. I heard my grandmama invited my maklong to taste my cooking. I was worried, it was my first time cooking kurma and I heard she said "Tak sangka Suria dah boleh masak", while she was having the kurma dish with my maklong. The best dish that my grandmama cook is ikan kembung asam pedas dengan bendi. Sangat sedap! Aku sangat suka ikan kembung asam pedas dengan bendi. Masih sedap kalau makan dengan kicap Tamin.

Puasa 2010, sebelum datang ke Brisbane, aku bawa uwan makan-makan di Restoran Warisan, somewhere in Terachi, Negeri Sembilan. She was on her wheelchair and she said it would be troublesome for me to go out with her. I told her 'Ala, naik kereta pun. Bukannya susah'. And she dressed up and off we went to Restoran Warisan. We had buffet together. Alhamdulillah, she likes it. We were listening to the band, which played old songs, songs during her youth, she loves it. I will not forget that day.

Then, Ika, my niece, belanja all of us including uwan at some place, I can't remember what it's called, but somewhere di jalan Bukit Putus. We were having Chinese cuisine. She loves it too.. I had pictures with her at that time.. such lovely times... I can't get it back though..
