Sometimes the hurdles aren't really hurdles at all. They're welcome challenges, tests.

Each day holds a surprise. But only if we expect it can we see, hear, or feel it when it comes to us

This is literally my first ever post, rasa macam perlu untuk start tulis blog sebab.. I'm about to enroll into IIUMK (Uia Kuantan) this Tuesday (24/1/2017) !! Takut rasa homesick tu melarut if pendam sorang2, so why not start a blog kan.

So meh kita bebel2 sikit. I just graduated my foundation (Physical Science) from CFS IIUM PJ on Oct 2016. Asasi setahun setengah, macam pelik kan tapi tak pelik untuk student Uia haha. Alhamdulillah grad with flying colors tapi rasa tak ready untuk ke Uia Kuantan. Patut nya excited lah nak degree kan, at the age of  20 pulak tu mmg tga semangat nak belajar. Haaa why?

Okay since sekolah lagi dah elak masuk SBP or apa2 lah yang berasrama, dapat tawaran tolak. Sekolah harian dekat dengan rumah (org Melaka ni haha). So boleh bayang tak betapa meraung homesick masa dkt CFS IIUM PJ? Dkt Petaling Jaya je pun, tapi every week nangis (walaupun every weekend balik). Ahad je bila parents or siblings hantar ke campus, mesti meleleh. If parents yg hantar lagi kronik lah sedih dia, mungkin sampai hari Selasa or Rabu baru okay rasa homesick (pastu Jumaat balik rumah again hahaha k) First and second sem quite tough lah, untuk org yg tak pernah berjauh dgn family, tak pernah sekolah berasrama. Kalau sekolah dulu ada kena gi camp 3-4 hari pun nangis, apatah lagi yg berbulan. Tapi nak masuk sem ke 3 dah chill lah sbb dah senior kan malu lah junior tengok haha, and dah ramai kawan and sibuk nak grad. So I eventually, berjaya habiskan asasi di Uia dgn jayanya.

Okay ada cerita lagi best sepanjang dkt asasi tu.

Masa sem 1 kan nangis teruk? So sbbkan otak fikir rumah je masastu, and masa tga homesick baru masuk pulak tu tetiba ada viral pasal asasi sains semua kena pindah Gambang campus next sem (baru buka). PJ campus nak tutup (tinggal students Arts je nnt) which is tak jadi tutup sampai skrg. So ya sbbkan asasi Uia mmg boleh tukar2 course, rasa lega lah cuma rajin ke tak je nak hadap semua proses dia and of course kena bayar some $$fulusss$$. Tapi nak tukar course ni kena hujung sem sebelum final, dgn hati yg berkobar2 nak tukar course sbb taknak pindah Gambang, study tetap study lah..... whole-heartedly gitu cewahhh poyo. End of sem pun dah tiba, tanpa fikir sejenak hahaha lol, I ended up isi borang tukar course, nak tukar ke English (Benl - arts obviously) punya taknak pindah ke Gambang, sbb dah lah mmg dah jauh dgn parents, nnt Gambang lagi lah makin jauh :') Punya gigih, tempuh procedures jumpa Head of Dept Maths, interview dgn Academic Advisor Benl. Kemain merayu dkt AA Benl, cakap sungguh2 minat dgn English (mmg minat tapi actually ada main agenda lain hahaha). Result tukar course tahu 1 week bfore start new sem lah yg pasti. Tapi the following sem masatu, was short sem so mmg students Sains selalu takda amek sem ni.

Masa sem break..

Unfortunately, ni bukan viral news dah. Tapi official statement dari Uia, they said that there will be no relocation of campus!! Tak jadi pindah ke Gambang, seriously... Dah lah lagi few weeks nak keluar result change course tu berjaya ke tak. Dah kalau tak jadi pindah, of course lah nak stay course yg sama je!! Taknak tukarrrr.. Boleh pulak result final Sem 1 keluar serentak dgn result change course. So check result dulu, okay sangat tak sangka hahaha. Pastu bila check change course, ACCEPTED. Peh tak ke menangis melalak meraung? Dah lah tukar course, last2 tak jadi pindah. Result current course pulak okay sangat. Kalau dah accepted ke Benl, means pointer tu NULLIFIED, burn habis macamtu je. Kalau pindah takda lah terasa sgt kehilangan result tu. Seriously, cuti tinggal seminggu tak senang duduk. Sbbkan dah tukar course Arts, kena masuk short sem. Cuti yg sepatutnya 3 bulan stgh, jadi 3 minggu je haha.

Start new sem as Benl student (dgn hati tak redhooo haha)

Short sem ni tak byk nangis homesick nak balik, tapi byk nangis sbb tak tahu nak buat apa. Biasa nya Uia, 3-4hari pertama ada buat session add and drop subjects, so mcm my case kena add subjects lah kena buat time table sendiri sbb first time ambil course Benl ni. I didnt go for the add&drop sesh, instead duduk dkt bilik termenung fikir. Org lain dah start class, roommates dah 2-3 hari gi class den dok melangut dkt bilik. "Betul ke nak teruskan Benl, betul ke minat, betul ke betul ke betul ke.." memanjang. So again TUKAR COURSE, I ended up appeal ke Dean CFS utk REVOKE changing course ke Benl. hahahahahahahahhaha mesti org yg baca rasa mcm aku ni takda pendirian tetap kan :( haha memang pun. Macam ni lah jadi kalau otak fikir homesick je, fikir rumah nak dekat je. BUT nak appeal dkt dean, kena hadap Asst. Director Registration Schedulling & Record Unit, haaaaa panjang title ingat lagi tau :') sbb stage paling struggle dkt stage ni. Kena interview why nak revoke decision, interviewer tu mmg poker face je tak tunjuk simpati. Bila cakap sungguh2, and ada lah sikit drama air mata. Fuhhh sepanjang iv tu, dia cakap tak boleh nak tarik balik. Keputusan muktamad tapi yup in the end.. "Okay you can revoke your decision but you have to write an appeal letter to the Dean and if your appeal is accepted you need to pay the processing fee at A&R". peh bila tahu mmg terus cakap okay boleh and bila boleh bagi letter tu. Balik je bilik, terus siapkan appeal (took awhile jugak, mmg full of sincerity and desperation lah hahaha) Print and terus submit dkt Office of The Dean on the same day. Esok pagi tu bangun awal dah kehulu kehilir dpn office, phone tak silent, refresh berkali2 email takda apa2 news. Then pergi tanya, they said expect for a call around 4pm, and boleh collect approval letter if berjaya. Know what? Again, I MADE IT THROUGH yalllllll. Menangis dpn receptionist tu jugak what the heck tan :') time tu roommate setia teman, sbb dia dah habis class; Hani i miss u!! and nangis sama2 haha. Then dgn excited nya gi bayar and balik bilik tak sabar nak pack barang, SAMBUNG HOLIDAY hehe! (( Teringat one of my eldest sis ckp, aku ni umpama bersungguh2 bersusah payah dapat kan benda yg mmg pada awalnya milik aku, sbbkan aku tak hargai. so i lost it, dah dapat balik jgn sia2kan lagi ))

Sangattt melodrama cerita iols hahahaha. Tragis. So the upcoming 2nd and 3rd sem went well. Tapi..

Bila dah 3rd sem, means dah nak ready nak grad. Bila nak grad asasi mesti lah nnt nak masuk degree pulak. Degree utk science courses mesti lah dkt Uia Kuantan....... again hahahahaha agak2 apa jadi? berulang tak kes tukar course tu? hahaha. Kalau korg alert, of course perasan dari awal paragraph dah ckp akan masuk Uia Kuantan 24/1/2017 ni. Ya, tak tukar course pun. Tapi dilemma sgt teruk masal final sem asasi, masa cuti dah habis asasi ni pun still hati ni kuat mengatakan nak tukar course ke Gombak. Kalau Gombak, science stream apa je lagi yg ada kalau bukan Engineering kan. Tah lah rasa mcm dungu pun ada asal haritu gi tukar Benl, tak terfikir langsung Engine. Hahahaha, nampak tak jodoh kuat dgn Physical Science. 

Anyway ada 4hari lagi barang tak pack satu apa, till then guys! Wassalam.

Much loves,
