A new chapter..


It's almost the end of May and almost all of my friends have continued their studies around Malaysia. A majority of them is in KML and a few are already sitting for their exams. Time does fly I guess. Even breaking the sound barrier. Haha. When I look back at when I just finished my SPM I said to myself that there is a long time to meet my friends and catch up with them. Maybe I was wrong. There are a lot of friends I failed to meet before they continued their studies. I don't blame them or anybody else. I partially blame myself  for my lack of confidence to brave it and greet them. People come and go in our life. And I am not saying it in a sad tone. This cycle of leaving and going actually increases our experiences in social activities. Imagine if we are left with the same peers from the moment we were born until we die. Of course we will feel great because we have loyal friends but don't we have the need to yearn more friends? Therefore the cycle of friends, in particular, in leaving and going is another of God's way for us to meet and mingle with His other creations so that we may have a strong community with a good social life in this world. But it is not God's way that people leave and is forgotten. God have provided us the chance to show his love by connecting again with these old friends by intentionally parting us with our friends at some point in our life so that we may truly value friendship. God works wonders doesn't it? But I don't mean to write this post to say that I'm glad that people part with me in my life but I just want to say to other people who are crying about leaving their friends and closed ones behind to look at the experience from another perspective. Maybe it will soothe their hearts a little. I am also leaving my friends and families next week and after writing about this, I feel better already. Anyway all the best to all of my friends and especially to YOU. If I have the chance, I will surely find you all. A new chapter of our life is beginning and I'll pray that we may have a pleasant experience. God Bless Us. Good night!!

My weakness, your strength, and vice versa...







Hello everyone. It's been a while since I wrote something. Well, I just finished my JPA interview. And to be frank I completely blew my chances away. All of the worst things that I imagined came true. No need to go into the details. It's enough to say that writing and voicing out my opinions are two different things for me. Life's like that you know. It's impossible to be the crème de la crème in everything. Sometimes you just have to accept that you don't have what other people have. God created us equally so that's why we have weaknesses. Maybe other people do not have our weaknesses but they also do not have our strengths. We were created by God to complement each other. That's why I am not very disappointed about the interview because I know my strengths lie elsewhere. But honestly I am a little disappointed because my ticket to studying overseas may have been burned to ashes. It has always been my dream to achieve that. But no worries. I still have the chance to achieve that dream. Sometimes we're up in the skies enjoying the peaceful view of the world and at other times we're lying flat on the ground covered in mud. It's like a wheel. When we have used our strengths to the fullest we're at the top of the wheel. But once we succumb to our weaknesses we roll to the bottom of the wheel.
And it's time to for other people to go the top. However, we can roll ourselves back on top by accepting our weakness and using our strengths to power ourselves. That's my philosophy. Never say that our weakness are the end. Think about our strengths. Be humble and do not underestimate other people. Who knows maybe when we're defeated by our weaknesses, the strengths of others whom we underestimated maybe the key to our survival. So, that's all peace out!

YESS!! I GOT IT!!

Yesterday I got the news I've been waiting for the entire month! I got the interview for the JPA scholarship! YES! YES! YES! I'm really excited and hyped for the interview. My mind is racing for all the things I should get ready with for the upcoming interview. Relax Jer, it's on the 10th of May so you should have a week to prepare. To be quite frank, I am anxious about this interview because my mind has this bad habit of making all these worst case scenarios which might occur during the interview instead of thinking optimistically. That being said, it is very important for me to prepare very well for this (so some research is compulsory). I'll talk to my seniors, sisters and my teachers to help me through the preparations as well as for their tips to succed through the interview. COME ON JER! You're just one little step away to achieving your dream! You've done so much that now is your time to reap the award! Don't let this moment be your downfall! So friends, pray for me and wish me luck. Thank you..
