Bungalow floor plan submission.

 9th May 2022, the first day of class after the Raya break. today's entry is going to be a bit more personal..


This morning, we were supposed to submit our floor plan for Design. Let's be honest, I really had my time for the whole week, I spent it merely for my family and kuih raya, and I don't care, not even regret. Yesterday after a rush finding Harraz's cat toy at Jusco Bukit Tinggi, we arrived at UIA, Gombak. I filled my evening visiting Farina at her room, ate some kuih raya and some mata kucing and wished Ainie, Wani and Shu the warmest "Selamat Hari Raya". Then Hajar invited me to her compartment and offered me her homemade kuih ros- where she accidently discovered that she can continue her grandma's legacy that nobody in her house can cook the kuih as decent as she and her grandmother could. - Hence, what else to expect other than myself who decided to sleep right away after my first yawn that night, without touching my assignments, AT ALL. 


I was so blessed that I woke up to One Direction's One Thing as my alarm for Fajr prayer. I went to the toilet to take my bath then performed the Fajr prayer and faster than the lightning I grabbed my butter paper and started doing my favourite thing- architectural research & design idea sketches. Shall I express more gratitude, that I read messages from Nina, saying 


"Have some rest, Raihana. Best idea wont come if u r not at ur best stage"


So grateful to have beautiful souls around me, alhamdulillah. Nina's words motivated me to do my best this morning and alhamdulillah that I already found my favourite architects yesterday during my self-research!! All the famous architects I learnt in university but I didn't feel attracted to their works and were struggling to find the beauty underneath- but couldn't and veery clueless bout it. :( however now, Fujiwaramuro has my heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could so relate myself to their masterpieces; we have so many things in common, their simplicity in designing the building form, the uniqueness of the interior, the natural, earth colour scheme and material, I really need some time to cry for their existence cuz I love them hell much since the minute I saw one of their projects!!!! It's been a dream that I am looking forward to own such firm with a bestfriend or a good friend and let our inner creativity soar through the simple gesture of architecture, for there are times when I feel like I'm against my own Malay architecture where they pay more attention to the details (the kekisi, the openings, the roof). In spite of that, Fujiwaramuro has sparked the brightest light in my heart to make my imagination becomes reality, and I'm excited for it! -great, I just spilled one of the bestseller tea. 


-My rough design concept & floor plan inspired by the coconut tree leaves-


Done with the consultation- the lecturer likes my idea and justification. I would say that now, my concept and the ideas are very well-explained and I couldn't be more satisfied about it, alhamdulillah - my feet are giggling, urging my head to figure out the form of my retreat house eeee. To tell, when I was lecturing my studio master about my floor plan, Luqman suddenly came out of nowhere, like he wasn't there when everyone else does their consultations, but why o why everytime when it comes to my turn, he will stand thereee? *quick note: Luqman is literally one of hottest guys in my course, my batch. Even the seniors know him and undeniably that he has tons of secret admirer from various courses since foundation. // another quick note: Luqman dear if it ever destined for you to suddenly  found my blog and got to read this entry, know that I'm so embarrassed but oh well I'm just speaking the truth -You're cute. hahahahahahaha. He asked about my design, the reason why I placed my kitchen on the 1st floor and he answered my question regarding the roof in Malaysia; does it necessarily to be overhang? - Yes, overhang roof is a must @ part of the requirements in tropical climate areas.  

I appreciate that, Luqman,. 


-May Allah bless our ways, R.

got offer letter for degree!?

jum'ah barakah, 17th September 2021 - the day after tomorrow will be Zuzu's birthday. while yesterday was her love life's, Tengku Hassanal Ibrahim Alam Shah of Pahang. 😝 it's nearly 2 weeks since I got my degree offer letter, YESSSS ALHAMDULILLAH HAHAHAHA I finally got invited to experience another 4-days-straight of sleepless nights (looking for a longer period 💓), another more days to puasa suddenly (submission days are always exhausting that I'll fall asleep right after the deadline until maghrib XD) and to more and more of rejection and "BURUKKKK" from mon lecturers 😄 (since i wasn't born to draw but i WILL in shaa allah, we'll see 😏). if you followed my previous story about me being so dramatic about what i want to pursue in degree,  i mentioned that i wanted to go for QUANTITY SURVEYING so so bad. -definitely a decision to make after my ideas got rejected so many times, i was compared to other people a lot (direct & indirect way) and ...

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...

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 ...

and there we go again..

November 17, 2022.  And there we go again, quarreling about the school-break. I feel sick every time I knew that I won't be able enjoy the holiday I deserve like everyone else. Kau bayangkanla harini cuti untuk PRU-15 sampai Isnin next week, and aku masih lagi mereput kat uia ni - Kalau boleh, Sabtu nanti je baru balik tu pun agaknya kalau possible balik hari ke uia, memang aku balik semata mengundi and sambung suffering kat kampus.  Lagi aku geram, ofc la aku budak architecture ni takde maknanya balik right on time, mesti kena awal sehari sebab kitaorg ada model lagi tak setel. haaa ni aku nak mengamuk jugak kalau dah balik awal nanti progress masih lembap and masih mengemis extension. dah la next week ada baki 4 hari je before mid sem break. so ada baki 3 hari buat model, hari keempat tu presentation. tapi in between tu juga bukan hadap design je, subject lain pun nak submission jugak. Pastu mid sem yang patutnya cuti 10 hari starting on 26th of November, boleh pulakkkk dior...
