 Assalamualaikum and happy Eid! Today, I'll be sharing with everyone my very first practicum experience as a trainee counsellor. As been mentioned in my previous post, half of my practicum journey was spent in Darul Quran, Kuala Kubu Bharu. I reported for duty on 4th January 2021 and I spent almost 3 months there. I did my practicum there with my classmate, Kak Nonie and there was another fella with us from another university. Anyway, we were told that the students will only come back on the 20th, so until then we will have to do other things. After less than a week being there, the govt decided to have PKP. So during that 2 weeks, Kak Nonie and I went back to KL and only 2 weeks later we came back to DQ. I still remember, I had my first ever ever client on 26th January, and oh boy was I the happiest person on Earth upon receiving a message from that particular client😆 I am forever grateful to her! Anyways, all in all my journey there was a valuable one. Not just it was my first e...

 Assalamualaikum and salam Ramadhan everyone~ So as some of you might already know, I am currently pursuing my masters degree in Guidance and Counselling. Also, currently I am in my 4th semester out of 5 semesters in total. 1 semester to go!!! Ganbatte dear self!! o(*≧□≦)o  Man, it was a loooonggg journey, at a short period of time. It doesn't feel THAT long, but it somewhat was full with a dozen of challenges that made it felt like its been yearsssss!  Last semester (3rd semester) I was required to do my practicum. Okay, so here's the deal with counselling, we have sort of 3 internship:   1. Practicum  - Practicum is basically a pre-internship thingy whereby initially students are required to practice conducting face-to-face counselling sessions with clients WITHIN their campus. So, supposedly I only needed to find clients among UPM staff/students and collect around 252 hours  whereby we are OBLIGATED to collect 96 hours of ftf session which includes indi...

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 il...

Assalamualaikum dear readers! Ohoyy! I hope everyone who is reading this is in a good health, despite the crazy outbreak we are currently facing (the deadly virus, i must not mention it's name, but oh you know what). So in today's entry, I feel like would it be fun if I share my class project videos? So that's just what I am going to do now, and I really hope you guys enjoy watching them as much as I enjoyed doing it! So here goes nothing Ｏ(≧▽≦)Ｏ... #1 Intercultural Communication - Beauty is You This video was inspired from one of Dove's video projects :) Through this video, we hope that we can help more women out there to realize how beautiful they are inside out! #2 Computer Mediated Communication - JOM Ride Share App The second video is a project whereby we were required to make our own mobile application. Therefore, we came out with the idea to make an application called Jom Ride Share. This application aims to help students in Pagoh Ed...

Assalamualaikum & hello everyone! I.AM.BACK!!!! Harini nak sambung share pasal Jepun lah. So haritu aku dah cerita pasal hotel kitorang kat Asahikawa kan? Jadi harini nak cerita sikit pasal makanan yang hmmm takdelah status halal 100% macam kat Malaysia ni, tapi makanan yang Muslim-friendly lah. Sebab Jepun tu bukan negara Islam kan. Islam kat sana pun minoriti je, so kalau nak cari yang ada logo halal macam kita kat sini memang susah la hahaha. Ok jom kita mulakan! Before aku pergi Jepun, aku dah consult dulu dengan member2 aku yang pernah study kat Jepun, macam mana nak tahu makanan tu halal/ Muslim-friendly ke tak? Kedai mana je yang boleh makan? So member aku berbaik hati share Muslim-friendly food map untuk Asahikawa. Malangnya phone aku rosak, map tu semua ada kat phone lama tu huwarghhh! So aku akan share apa yang ada jelah ek uhuks! 1. Asahikawa Ramen Ichikura This was our first ever meal upon arriving in Hokkaido. We were randomly looking for halal restauran...

Assalamualaikum and good evening all! It's been so long since my last post right? Well, A LOT has happened. Anyway, a little bit of update of my life, last September I started my first semester as a masters student in a local university, and it was...not so awesome btw. I suffered countless moments of giving up and drop out of school for the first 6 weeks of my study there.  The reason is because I was horrified and shocked with the new place and situation. I mean, okay my friends are 80% I'd say are working people, anddd they are obviously older than me. But I don't really mind that. What drove me crazy was that okay, I pursued my masters study in a different field from my first degree. Last time my degree was in English for International Communication, and this time around I took Masters in Education Guidance & Counselling.  Okay...many people asked me why I didn't pursue my masters in TESL (majority of my seniors and juniors took this). Well, it's beca...

Hi peeps! Tonight I feel like talking about Asahikawa!!! So excited!!!! The first city we stopped by in Hokkaido and its my second favourite city in Hokkaido (there're only 3 cities in total haha). So after we touched down, we went straight to the hotel, Hotel Route Inn Asahikawa. The hotel was superb I tell you! It was my first time experiencing a Japanese hotel, and this one, totally nailed it! This was how our room looked like What I love about Japanese hotels is that they took care of your necessities really well. When I say they take care of you, I'm serious. No joke. You just need to come and bring your daily clothes and that's all. They provide you other necessities such as toiletries; toothbrush, toothpaste, razor, facial wash, shampoo, conditioner, you name it! They even provide pajama can you imagine that! The pajama is the robe one but who cares! It's a freakin Japanese sleeping robe!  They will also give you a card to enter the ons...
