SO... I HAVE THIS ONE FRIEND...

 9th December 2021, Thursday,

 it's Mashada's birthday, my pen pal from London hee - May Allah bless her always <3 .


So right now we are just done with Land, Site & Survey. We legit got last minute announcement that we're going to be having a 'midterm'; As we all know, Architecture is seldom to have a written examination since our workload is already beyond the 24/7, non-stop and endless. So I slept early yesterday so I could wake up early this morning to revise all the slides from week 1 till week 8 ya. Like today, I finally understand what are we actually learning in this subject so alhamdulillah, only God knows how clueless I was, I take 6 subjects for this semester and the credit hour is around 20.5 something, but the university 's approximate is 19.5. So, that is why this blog is quite dusty these days hahahahaha. 

Alright, I think everybody is well informed that I'm currently studying in an international university, hence I do have some international friends here. But not all of them are here since they're preparing for the visa and Malaysia is quite strict for outsiders, cuz man, it's post pandemic! To tell, I made a mate with this one guy, my course mate. His name is Riyadh. The first time I knew him was when he couldn't enter the meeting in his Microsoft Teams so I sent him the link I had but it turned out to be the wrong link. Thus we  both were inside a very quite meeting but there were some of our friends too, thought that it was the right link so HAHAHAHAAHA. I came to ask him "dyou hear anything? cuz I don't" "Me neither", he replied. Long story short, Riyadh is the one who got to find the right link and managed to share it with others. I was so embarassed that time HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Okay, you guys might want to know some things about Riyadh, he's a Thai, but he lives in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. This makes him can speak several languages like Arabic, English, Thai and as well Bahasa Melayu. So we got to be closer cuz he loves to ask me questions regarding our classes and assignments since that day. 

Riyadh is a  polite, a soft-spoken and a shy guy, we talked hell a lot in whatsApp, we shared a lot of sketches, notes and informations (if you're Architecture student, it's so hard to see other's work, most of the time things need to be keep confidential), but not for Riyadh and I hahahahaha. We even discuss together when it's quiz, we share our answers; It's not that we're cheating, but it's like we just want to know how each of us is doing, either the question is so hard or maybe one of us needs help from the lecturers regarding the connection, etc. Like we really have each other - and I'm quite touched :') . Shy, because we had the day when he wanted to be in a group with me but I was with my friends and he was like, "Raihana, why is your group consists only girls? I feel shy to fill in my name um maybe you can switch and we can get into Akmal's group? If only you don't mind?"- Wallah, if anyone is having a language barrier, you guys will probably misunderstood his words right? Luckily that he was talking to ME, HAHAHAHAHAH

I started to notice that he is starting to get comfortable with me- when he never spoke with any of my friends except Afizul (because they're classmates) nor replied in the whatsapp groups, but he even speak Kelantanese to me, guys!! "I'm not really good in English, but Raihana, can you speak Arabic? Oh easier if you can speak Kelantanese. Raihana boleh kecek Kelate dok?" HAHAHAHAHAA I can't stop myself from laughing, the day he spilled that his parents are actually Malay, but he's also confused about his background. He explained about how Pattani and Kelantan was once a state but  then splitted into 2 states and now both are located in 2 different countries. And you guys know what, none of our course mates know that Riyadh is actually half Malay I would say, and he can speak Malay, but broken one hahahahaha. Thinking back, I think everyone just know that he's a thai and lives in Thailand and that's all.

When it comes to grouping, most of my friends said that Riyadh is so quite and doesn't ask anything - a total problem especially during the submission day, because we had that one day he wasn't around, so his group cannot submit the work without him. And yes let me tell you it was because he went to accompany his mother to the hospital, like what is this we are not even in the same class nor groups but like why he didn't inform his team mates specifically about his schedule?! oh well.

So back to the first thing I told you, I was having a midterm, and I was so confident and ready to any shitz this life has to offer, but guess what, we were informed that it'll be only 10 questions, 10 QUESTIONS FOR MIDTERM IS EQUIVALENT TO HELL-DIFFICULT-KIND OF QUESTIONS. like, logically, how come you wanna compress all 8 weeks lectures in just 10 questions?! And yes, when the moment had finally arrived, I only managed to answer 3 questions :").  I was having problem to open my quiz at first, the time given was only 30 minutes, and I did inform my lecturer, unfortunately she was on flight :D so I lost around 15 minutes waiting for my quiz to appear in my I-Taleem. Around 5 minutes left before the quiz is closed, suddenly Riyadh texted me, "Are you still in the quiz?" , I was so worried about my quiz, and I got to replied dia pulak kan hmmm. "Yes I am." 

" What question, Raihana? "

"No 4 is hard, hbu? "

And he sent me lots of voice messages, like how come I can listen to it, I was answering my quizzzzz.

Riyadh later sent me his full answer, so I gave him mine too and checked the difference between our answers, only 2 questions were different, as for the rest, we picked the same answers. 1 minute left, so I submitted my answer right away and AMEKKO the marks was displayed on the screen, and I check both mine and Riyadh's, I got 8/10, and Riyadh got 10/10!! 

I congratulated Riyadh and he said that was why he gave me his answers, cuz he already submitted the quiz and knew that he got all right.............


 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHHAHAHA

6 days in Konya, Turkey. & Life as a Turkish 👰 experiences and recommendations. ☕

🌼🌼 Life as a Turkish 🌼🌼 Selam aleyküm, people! günaydın !! 😚  it's been ages since i last wrote about " Who am I?

(how are you?) if you're doin good, elhamdulillah. if you're not, reveilles-vous bientôt. 😊 (this is french language. 😆) so maybe most of you readers (most are my friends and fam 👩) knew that i went to Turkey last March. i spent 10 days there, 4 days in Istanbul which is my all time fav 😍, and another 6 days well spent in Konya, the most beautiful historical and cultural place i've ever been. but between 6 days in Konya, i also went to Cappadocia, which filled wth old cavessss and hot air ballon, we went to Sille and Aksaray. 😋  elhamdulillah, indeed God hears to every du'a. it took me 4 years , i keep praying and praying and praying in every single of my sujood. i know it is impossible sometimes for ...

As reckless as I could.

 26 October 2022, padre's birthday. \\ It's vital for you to turn on Peterpan's Mungkin Nanti before indulging into this entry// Currently having my time, though I have tons to be think of; 1. Heritage, since I am one of the group leaders. It's never sounds easy to handle 25 people to go oversea ya know. 2. Design, I did some research about our upcoming furniture project for RnR before asr today and cant wait to vomit the idea on butter paper trrow. And 1 last thing is the stupid folder I need to prepare for Journalism Club (clap hands everyone) for we'll be having a workshop soon this Saturday but I'm planning to ask the program manager trrow night, REHEARSAL.  I know I often prioritize my schedule but there's always reason why things were so better back then., maybe because I wrote a lot. So indeed I am here because I am in need of this, I have to write this story.  From my previous post where I spilled there was this one guy who likes me, now let me tell ...

PMS never felt this awful.

March 25th. One thing that no one will ever ask, but tonight sounds so melancholic, with my ears now stuffed with " Melancholy" from Spotify. Life is currently so sad.  I am alone - with realisation of that particular one who might accept me more than I do to myself? But what am I doing now? Break his heart is the only specialty I'm good at.  I slowly noticed how some faces are just masks they put on. Yet you are to spare forgiveness and acceptance for them as it's part of their "survival".  I hate it when people mock my opinion and don't take my words seriously.  I am exhausted of being selfless for those who dont even know how to appreciate. I am burning out, for too tightly holding on to myself and the things they considered as dignity and pride.  I want cry my heart out when they told me they have spaghetti, and I was all starved for it, but then they ate it without any guilts. I feel bad, when that one old lecturer who favours me fell sick because I...

Nervousnyaaaaaa esok Dean's Cup Debate Championship!! >< // bismillah to experience

 1st June 2021, Tuesday, currently in jelousy >:( hm! * IDEA  is our society name. it is AED but read backwards. AEDi.  umm basically i placed the title before the championship and now it's already 2 days after the debate 🤣 so i still remember that day w here Asad texted me asking if i interested to join debate representing my course, archi & env design (AED, if ur new). when i was in secondary school, i did joined some debate competitions since i was 15 and i got the title 'best debater'. I was in that team with my bestfriend, Ainul and my forever friend, Hidayah. these 2 idiots were the best when it comes to talk-back episodes. still fresh in my mind how we got prepared; always 2 weeks before the competition, find legit EVERYTHING related to our motion, collect informations from buku karangan biar ayat power and figure out what will the opposition come up with. oh well.  now it has been nearly 10 months i am stuck in the campus. 10 months with no tv. 10 mon...

critz 1 be like

 17th Dec 2022, 0031hrs Still feels like yesterday I've cried my heart out in front of my lecturer and my friends - idiot, it really was happening yesterday!  Yesterday was supposed to be the day where I share my outfit, take a bunch of pics of my crit 1 materials and proud of myself very much. But all those didn't happened. Instead, I made fun of myself by crying in front of my most always-find-reason-to-quarrel-with-me lecturer and I even screamed on Syamil  "Kau boleh jangan kacau aku tak?!".   *disclaimer: I wasn't crying because of the crit, but because my lecturer kept teasing me dasar sir!!! ergh jatuh martabat saya. sksksksk (will insert pic once i balik uia) Anyways, I am quite excited with my concept this time though my panels said that it's not strong enough to be brought for RNR, which I believed that they just don't understand it as I do but I'll prove them wrong!  So my concept is basically the sea - OMG I feel guilty for not calling it p...
