Hey friend, you Okay?

Assalamualaikum and hello peeps!
Its been sooooo long since my last post right😅 My life has been on a roller coaster this year. I wasn't in a good state due to online classes, study from home...it sucks! Who's here with me? Put up your hands!!! What's your opinion about working from home and online classes? Do you enjoy it or do you hate it? Let me know in the comment box! 

Though I admit, there are a lot of advantages wfh and studying from home. But let's be real, adapting to the new norm is not easy right. As for me, the reason why I prefer to have a face-to-face class and staying in campus is because I enjoy going to class. I enjoy meeting friends, having discussions and eating with friends... is such a blessing! And its like a therapy for me. Now that half of our freedom 'nikmat' is taken away, basically everyone is struggling. Some people adapted to the new norm really well, but some others are having a really hard time adapting. 

As we all know, mental illness has been really common nowadays. Awareness about mental health has increased and more and more people started to acknowledge it now, compared to before. People start to become more open about seeking for professional help such as counsellors, psychiatrists and clinical counsellors or clinical psychologists. 

I have a question...what's your opinion about meeting a professional helper? Do you have any negative stigma when people tell you that they are meeting a counsellor or a therapist? Tell me what are your thoughts about it! I would like to know :) No worries, I won't judge!😏 Hahaha! Nahh, I'm serious. I won't. 

One thing I would like to remind each and everyone who reads this, please don't swallow your pain and struggles alone. Even though you might feel embarrassed to share your issues and concerns with anyone because you might have the thought that, "well, everyone's struggling. I shouldn't bother them." If you're having such thoughts, HOLD IT RIGHT THERE MISTER!! What are we? Who are we? We are HUMANS. It is the human nature that we are indeed WEAK. Weak as in, we need help to get through life. Be it Allah's help, or the help from another human being, just admit it that...WE REALLY NEED HELP. Don't feel bad for asking help from other people. If you feel stressed, sad, anxious, angry, disappointed or even happy, share it someone you really trust and feel safe with. If you feel like you have none, you can always opt for an outsider's help- like counsellors. Afraid to be out there during this deadly pandemic? You can always get for help online. There are plenty of free apps available nowadays. You can talk to a professional helper on the phone, or if you're too shy to talk on the phone, you can always chat with them! 

I'll be sharing a few apps here, so feel free to check em out okay! What's important is to GET HELP! If you can prevent things from getting worse, then why wait? While waiting for the right time to get help, you are putting yourself at risk. Your wellbeing is so important, it is an AMANAH, a trust given by Allah, to us. So it is OUR RESPONSIBILITY to take a good care of it while we are still alive.

Below are some of the apps I have mentioned about.

Remember, GET HELP IF YOU NEED TO! Don't be ashamed and never think yourself as a burden to other people if you seek for help. Getting help is your right as a human being. So, go get your help ASAP and don't procrastinate! Loving yourself and self care is so important:) All the best! <3

Internship Experience

Assalamualaikum and happy weekend dear readers! So harini aku nak cerita pengalaman aku ber internship sepanjang seminggu ni ya. Jadi pertama sekali, aku sedang menjalani latihan industri di Zoo Negara Malaysia. Pada mulanya, sesiapa pun akan rasa macam, "Wahhhh syoknya kerja kat zoo! Boleh tengok harimau hari-hari!". Well, tbh, takdela kau rasa nak lepak tengok harimau everyday kan haha. Kat Zoo Negara tu aku buat praktikal bawah Public Relation Department. Kalau korang student language, biasa zoo akan letak bawah Education Dept...kat situ best la sikit (i suppose) sebab kat situ kita boleh tolong jadi tour guide untuk visitors yang datang, kita tolong assist volunteers yang datang, tolong assist visitors bagi haiwan makan, so yeah yang tu syiok sikit kot. Ada je benda lain yang korang kena buat, tapi so far yang tu jela yang aku tahu haha. But one thing about ZN, dea takde sediakan elaun tau. So kalau korang nak kerja yang ada elaun, ZN is definitely not the place

IIUM Pagoh, Johor

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone! I'm so sorry that it took me longer than expected to write a post about IIUM Pagoh hahaha! WHAT IS IT? First and foremost, IIUM Pagoh is just another branch of IIUM campus just like what they have in Kuantan and Gombak. However, what's so special about IIUM Pagoh is that, ONLY students from Kulliyyah of Languages and Mangement (KLM) will be moving there. Well, what makes us so special that we have the whole IIUM to ourselves? Well, simply because we are the ONLY ONES who do not have our own building. So yeah, Tan sri Muhyiddin Yassin was so nice that he proposed this idea of having IIUM in Pagoh which happens to be his hometown so yeah, that's the short version of the story. Just a brief one just to give uguys an idea about it. Actually, kat Pagoh ni its going to be an education hub, and that means there will be few other universities/ institution there besides IIUM. Ada UTM, UTHM, Politeknik and IIUM. And we will have to share some
