11th January 2015

1 day to SEM 2

Here I come!

Alhamdulilah! The first post in the land of  Kolej Mara Banting!
"The island of ADVENTURE and KNOWLEDGE! 
It would be short simple and straight forward
Because I have a work to be done.

I reached here at 9 AM. Many changes happened.
We got new fan and lamp!
Yeay! All praises to Allah Al- mighty.

The "dewan selera" also was upgraded! 
And it is so beautiful, clean, brand new wall with different colour now
which is more HAPPIER.
The plate are SUPER HUGE!
I wonder how my diet will be
My tummy... please be strong my dear.
Remember your mission here! To stay fit!

The moment I saw the sign board of Kolej Mara Banting,
It is sort of a feeling  deep in my heart
A deep feeling, sank down the ocean of SADNESS.
I couldn't express more as my father driving just next beside me.
What will you feel when your child is crying ?
ACTUALLY I really don't know 
THE MAIN reason of my tears
It is all MIX.

I MUST be STRONG!
YEAH!
This semester 2,
Will definitely be a WAR for me!
I am the warrior with all of the sword, gun, and bazuka
ready to to fight AGAINST the only ENEMY..

A target to chase on
and a spirit to be polish!
over and over!

I have to be strong!
No matter what happen.
You have Allah Al- Mighty!
He listen to you.
Just raise your hand and make DOA.

Never a straight line

Facebook status from Aiman Azlan, the famous vlogger:

Sunday, 4th January 2015 

Life is NOT a straight line. If we think that life should always follow that line, then we might end up disappointing ourselves.

Things don't always go as planned. More often than not, what actually happen is not the plan.

But then we realize what actually happened is better than original plan

Keep our priorities straight, do our best, keep positive and wonderful things might happen.

If one door closes, then go find another door. 

I love the line  " Life is NOT a straight line" because there will be ups and
downs in our life. There will be a moment where you get lost. Don't even 
know actually what I am doing. Why I am becoming like this? I have done 
a lot! What else I need to do? What happen to me? The feeling of depression 
and full of tears to build up the NEW you! All the people around you not even
helping you! It is all up to yourself. You are the one who NEED to change!
Change the attitude, the routine and the goal.


I love this photo so much! May be because I am going to check people's
heartbeat when I am becoming the doctor. (In sya allah)

And! Subhanallah! What else I can say! Speechless! and Amazed!
if LIFE is not a straight line. I can portray life is just like the human's heartbeat!
YEAH!

What did you see?
Okay! Well I can see. There are many peaks. After the peak, it will drop. 
And becoming straight line.

What I realised is...
We NEED to face the " down" or the failure in our life first! Then, there will be 
a HUGE success we will get! As you can see; the high peak from the heartbeat.
Then, that how the life goes! Never a straight line.
NEVER!
so!

NEVER SAY IT'S OVER! 
NEVER GIVE UP!
COME ON!!!
A MUSLIM and MATURE BELIEVER
is STRONG!!!!

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF;
your ABILITY
when facing the hard time and difficulties!
You can change it! You can do it!

the EFFORT; DOA and His MERCY 
is really important in your life!

The PAST cannot be fix anymore,
BUT!!!
We can change the FUTURE!

Allah plans the best for you!
Wallua'lam

Or maybe you can portray the human life as roller coaster. It will be fun!

Aaaaaaaaaa

7 years goal

Alhamdulillah! It is the first day of January 2015!
A new year in Masihi calendar!
Common thing to do : to set a year GOAL!
Yeah!

Perhaps because we were used to it!
Why not on the first day of 1436 Hijrah?
It is on 24th October 2014 
A couple months ago...

On that day,
1st Muharam 1436,
Reciting the Quran on Maghrib 
and get ready for the dua for end of the year;

Resuming the page I suppose to read,
I was reading this surah;
Surah Al- Ra'd
on that very calm night;
Subhanallah!

There comes verse 11 on this 13 surah!
Allahuakbar!
The sign from Allah swt!
Mashaallah!
He tells us! On the first day of 1436!

Without no doubt!

Allah swt has made that clearly!

All the changes is from your willingness 

from you!

I have heard from one of the motivational talk 

At tv Al- Hijrah which is Reflection by Imam Suhaib Webb

That 30 minutes talk  stress about 7 years of our goal.

We need to set a goal and accomplish it within 7 years.

Relevantly, we can see in Islam, why 7 years?
There are guidance for our parents to raise kids according to our age.
Source : http://www.imamreza.net/eng/imamreza.php?id=7696

Three Stages Of Life 

First stage  (1-7) Years old: The child is  a "master" to parents
The age of being a child and play. Not yet ready for education through
formal instruction.The child is influenced by the atmosphere and 
surrounding; which they learn by observations. Therefore it is important
for the parents to be a good example to  their child; the excellent behaviour
and manner.
~ Good time to teach the child to basic steps to Solat (prayer)

Second stage (8- 14) Years old: The child is a "slave" to parents
For the next seven years, Child's mind can grasp logical reasoning and
is developed for formal education. The child should be raised with proper
Islamic values and ethics. Religious education is very crucial at this stage 
of age to provide firm foundation for the kids. At these age, Parents should 
be strict in disciplining their children. 

Third stage (15- 21) Years old: The child is a "friend" to parents
As this stage of age, the child is grown up to be a responsible teenager.
Parents should guide and help their teenage child to make correct decisions
in many things. The child also has to start training for the career that he 
intends to pursue so that he can stand on his own feet and ability. At this 
time, the child is close to marriage and the parents' responsibility towards
their children comes to an end. 

Subhanallah!

How our parents has made a very good job! And fulfill their responsibility in
raising us! Syukran mama and ayah! May Allah swt bless both of you with all 
of HIS mercy! Amin!

In the nutshell, we can use that 7 years period to set an specific goal to be 
a better person, and to be a better Muslimah. In sya allah ( with Allah swt wills)

So, now my age is 19. I have another two years to accomplish my goal!
At the age of 21, I should.....
In sya allah! I hope I can do it! With new goal! Guide me Ya Allah!

You can start figure it now.. I should.......when  I turn 21. Walla...

In sya allah!

L.O.V.E.

Written on the last day of 2014.
On 9 Rabiul awal 1436 Hijrah.
by a student that
dont even graduate!

L.O.V.E ? So?
actually what is love?
What I know about this 4 letters?
What did I master about it?
Really? What is it?
a common thing for a people like us,
or specifically a person like me!
18 years old, A newbie in the college
to seek for the love others from our family

you know what i mean! 
a boy and a girl.

Hmm...

let me make it straight!
a reminder to me and 
all my dearest friends out there.

It is not the time yet!
There are too many things 
A LOT of things
That you don't know!
and!
You and I need to learn!

Have you master all of the ayat in the Quran?
Have you memorise the surahs with meaning?
Willing to do sincerely; from the bottom of your heart?

Did you know every single thing about our
beloved Prophet Muhammad ( peace be upon on him)?
Every story about Him?
The way he treated women, eldest, kids;
The way he socializes with all of the sahabat?
His menu for a day? How health is important to him?
and
How struggle he was just for ISLAM?

Did you know every single thing about 
the other noble 24 prophets?
at least know all the story?
The mukjizat to them?
Make them as a lesson?

How about the sahabat?
Khulafa' arrasyidin?
Era of Umayyah?
Era of Abassiyah?
Era of Uthmaniyah?
All of this era are absolutely
INCREDIBLE!!!
We should take a lesson from that.

Move on to the 
5 pillar of Islam?
6 Pillar of Iman?
Our ibadah! All the syarat sah and syarat wajib? 
Are you sure all this time, 
our ibadah is accepted by Allah swt?
We perform in a correct way? with all of the humble?

ALLAHU!

There are A LOT to learn! Allahuakbar!
Just !
To be a better Muslim!
So that when you get married, 
You will build a strong Muslim family!
Strong faith in Allah swt!
And to fix the UMMAH!
It all start from individual Muslim!
From YOU! My sister!

What is love?
All I know about love is...
You want the person that you love
to be happy!
You sacrifice everything for them!
Our love deserve to our parents!
Yes! ONLY!
to them!

Stop! THINKING about opposite gender!
Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
Wake up!
You will waste your time!
Really!
OH COME ON!!!
What's with the crush????
Not important at all!

Forget about him!
Forget about her!
It is not your ultimate goal!

Our goal is just to get Allah swt Mercy!
The goal in your life! Just for Allah swt!
The creator of both worlds!

If it is the time
THEN, in sya allah!
There come
Exact guy or girl, for you
Exact time
On specific day, place and condition!
JUST! when it is the exact time!
No worry!

Set back your aim! And goal!
Repentance to Allah swt!
He will always open the door for the forgiveness.
Come to Him!
It is never too late.
NEVER!

And just stop what you are doing now!
The FAKE LOVE!
Think about yourself and your family!

Allahuakbar! There are a lot things to do
Do the undone for  your self
Seek your identity first!
Your Muslim identity!
Shine your ability and talent first!
And  do everything just for Allah, Al- Mighty!

That's all from my heart...
I am just no body who also
struggle to focus on to the ultimate goal
Don't let this " FAKE LOVE" 
ruins everything!

STOP IT! WAKE UP! REPENT! FOCUS! GOAL!

Wallua'lam.

SAVE THE LOVE FOR SOMEONE WHO DESERVES IT!

I found this on facebook!

Kalau kita dah tau siapa jodoh kita, tak seronok lah! Kan?

Sebab tu Allah swt gives surprise for us!

Mesti kita akan cakap " La! Tak sangka hang jodoh aku!"

Hahaha

# Pertemuan itu ada, tetapi jodoh akan tetap kekal sebagai rahsia ALLAH SWT!

Focus first na! We just a baby... Dont know anything

See the world first!

Recipe #1: "On the spot, we decide..."

There will never be a good sample of recipe of life. The recipe of happiness
here in dunya and akhirat.  I realised that my parents have their own recipe
to build up the strong basis of Islam in me and to have my own principle in
life no matter who I am; where I've been in the future. May Allah swt bless
them for all of their effort in becoming a responsible parents to me. Amin!

The first recipe of my family is "On the spot, we decide..."

The moment I left the gate of Sekolah Menengah Agama Persekutuan Kajang
after Bahasa Arab Tinggi paper in SPM; there is one question; the easiest and 
common question that kind of "haunted" me! Mostly from my relatives and 
sometimes drives me crazy.

" Nak sambung apa nanti lepas ni? Nak jadi doktor or engineer or even perhaps in the accountancy field?".... so that is the question! I just smile; the smile which was never from the bottom of my heart.  

In high school, I "decided" I want to be "Biotechnologist". So, It is kind of
compulsory to me, to write this word " Dr. Amirah Amirmudin; Biotechnologist
on the cover page of  each of my  exercise book. Haih, little laugh
"flashing back" that moment. ><  

Actually, I NEVER discover what is my ambition in the future! Seriously!
Never! My father's once told me, "buat betul-betul! Dapatkan dulu 11 A+. 
Then on the spot,we decide what you want to be!  So, I do what I am
suppose to do during my high school.  To be a student! Learn! Focus!
All of my time I just spent on revision, exercises and memorising the
mind map; facts; acronym and etc...

After the SPM result, I have this huge and serious dilemma! Which is
" ACTUALLY" to decided which field I am MORE into. Suitable to my nature. 
I search on the internet, answering many career inventory and quizzes to 
discover my ability and talent. Whether the field is good or bad for me. 

I filled every scholarship that suit with my SPM qualifications in every field;
medicine, accountancy, engineering, teaching and attending many
interview. It was fun though! The experience of being brave, confident
with every words that utter from my mouth; meeting great competitor with
interesting background; widen my way of thinking and answering interview 
questions; changing phone numbers and connecting through facebook with 
the friends there; and actually; to KNOW the real me. 

The way I "SOCIALISE" with people. 

Eventhough never know your ambition is kind of DISASTER, but I know what 
my father trying to show me! 

You never know what is in front of you. What if becoming Biotechnologist is actually not your DESTINY? My father wants me to always FOCUS in every single thing that I do. Learn first! Then on the spot we decided your ambition suit with my SPM result. I Just imagine how stressful I am if I don't score in my examination during high school and how it will affect my "DREAM" to be bio-technologist.

My father taught me to always give my very best effort in every single thing that I do. Focus! Focus! Focus! and Keep the momentum! After that, on the spot we decide... 

One more story, after getting back from California, I struggle within 
3 months to achieve 5 A in the UPSR. It is too late for me to apply on
boarding school. Alhamdulillah! with the good result in UPSR, I got the 
chance to be in KAA class in the school. KAA stands for Kelas Aliran Agama. 

There will be one extra subject in my PMR; which is Arabic language. 

My father loves His children to learn more than one language. So, He said 
to me " Just learn, I want you to learn that beautiful language. No matter
what your PMR result is.Either that language will  "AFFECT" your PMR 
result later, at least you have the knowledge; for your future and your life.

I believe in you, my daughter! You will give the best! After the result, on
the spot we decide...

Parents always wants the best for their children. To get good grade in the
school. To be the top in the class and to be known. They hoping the best
from us. And it is the ONLY way we can pay back everything that they 
do just to see their children growing happily. 

They don't force me! But I am the ONE who want to prove them! that 
their first born daughter can do it! Accept the challenge! To be good at 
school! to show my father that Arabic language is EASY and NEVER EVER 
going to affect my PMR result!  Never!

I am in college now. Alhamdulillah! With Allah swt bless on my parents 
and me. I am pursuing in Medicine; Not Biotechnology. Just go with the
flow as Allah swt is the best planner!

I am in semester break. Just having a chat with my sister... She strongly 
and bravely admit that

" I refuse to get married! Hehe", 

" What ????? really angah??? Serious???

While having dinner together with the my family, I inform my 
father that my little sister don't want to get married in the future..

Then, my father said.....

"ON THE SPOT,we decide..."

Opppssss... My bad! Haha! 

In every single thing! I will remember " ON THE SPOT, we decide"... 
FOCUS in your vision; don't let other thing distract you because it is just 
the beginning, IT IS A STILL LONG JOURNEY TO GO! In sya allah!

Enjoy being a student! Because all you have to do is just learn! 

I am TOTALLY a beginner!

My travelogue for SEM 2 in IB programme; KMB

15 days before school

~Preparation~

In the name of Allah, Most gracious; Most Merciful
Allahuma solli 'ala Muhmmad, peace be upon Him

I am TOTALLY a beginner in IB programme!
Seeking my NEW identity!
of becoming IB survivor!

This is a reflection and improvement from my SEM 1  result. Just in 15 days, 
In sya allah I will getting back; struggling, living and enjoying; SEM 2. 

Getting to know the NEW identity  of me!

 I called this sem as " The Sem of Strictness". Strict? 

The word itself describe how hectic and fatigue my life will be during 
this sem! Subhanallah! I decided to be strict as it is SO me! I am a 
serious person. I defined the word "serious" is .... Me! myself will give my 
whole COMMITMENT, ATTENTION, and FOCUS in a particular thing or situation. 

Why " The sem of Strictness?"
Because I have to be strict with myself about the TIME!
During SEM 2, I have to gear up! and "SERIOUS" on the Internal Assessment (IA),in Biology,Chemistry and BMS, The Math Exploration, and the Extended Essay (EE)
In addition! Commitment to curiculum, topic test, group work, novel analysis,
TOK and HAFAZAN.
Allahu! Lets feel the heat now!!! The pressure!
for me to realise that I have to " USE" my time really WISELY. Ya Allah! Please
guide me!
Tick Tock...
Tick Tock...
The clock is ticking....
Managing TIME is absolutely important! 
Surah Al- Asr, the surah specific for time:

Demi Masa!
Sesungguhnya manusia KERUGIAN
melainkan! yang BERIMAN dan BERAMAL SOLEH!

As my state is a STUDENT. Then, I should use "LEARNING" as the way for me and
for US to get Allah swt blessing; His REDHA towards us; His hamba. 

It is time for me to get my new IDENTITY! Adapting in new environment of IB;THE DYNAMIC PROGRAMME. I have change a few things to get myself well adapted to this programme.

I want to focus on LEARNING and TASK. In sya allah!
Be Discipline with the  "TESTIMONIAL METHOD". This show the " strictness" to myself.

Learning

Know your study style: Effective method and time in learning. By identifying your study style, it will save your revision time before examination. I have to change my revision method, as I used to revised ALL the papers and notes,; flipping EACH of the pages before the night of the exam for EACH subjects! Which is ineffective and less SMART! and if I keep on doing this during my degree, then....it is not save!


There are many inventory and quiz in the internet for  you to discover you study style. You can click on this link: Knowing your study style and check this out too study strategies

I am a VISUAL learner!!! yeay!!! Who is with me? Gimme High 5!!!

Testimonial Method: Mind Mapping. 

~ Weekend night: Go through from the whole chapter and subtopic. Get the 
   idea and make a ROUGH mind map. 
~ Review within 24 hours: After the class, fill in the detail of subtopic in the 
   mind map.


Task ( IA, EXPLORATION, EE)

Testimonial Method:
~ Reading research to get IDEA
~ Identify problem
~ Propose title before February.


It is easier to have your own CALENDAR! I prefer to have a written DIARY. 
Not using phone. Checking the diary every night; to get ready for tomorrow. 

Still manually...

In sya allah. Amirah will do the best!
