Week 11 Reflection

Afternoon everyone, how's it going ? Good ? I hope so..

Things had been quite hectic around here, you know, with all the assignments and rushing to complete them before the deadlines. Gosh, I'm dying here..

Anyway, nothing much for the 11th week. AGAIN, just a bunch of work to do.

I'm pretty nervous knowing that the semester is about to end. It's not because of the final examination is coming up, but it's because the lecturers are going to key in our marks and show them before the exam. So yes, I'm really nervous about it.

I can't really say if I have done well this semester. It seems to be just like the previous semesters. Everything was fine at the beginning, but then things started to get rough in the middle and just horrible at the end. I'm praying for the best like seriously, I know I've done my best to catch with everything. All of the assignments, I've given my 100%, just hoping that the lecturers would see it. 

Stress is catching up and my head is about to explode due to all of this hustle and bustle. I can only hope that all of my work can be completed on time. 

Week 10 Reflection

Morning peeps ! *sigh..

Yes, that's right, it is Sunday and yet I'm letting out a big heavy sigh to start the day. WHY ?
Let see shall we..

This week started with everyone preparing, once again, the Business Proposal presentation on Wednesday. And so, my group and I were very tired plus, before we could even discuss it, we had tons of other work to be done and catch up with. So, no playing and resting in between. Then, the day before the presentation, we received a news that it will be postponed on Thursday instead. Phew ! Such a relief, BUT ! We still have a test for Academic Writing class, so....

The test was indeed difficult but I tried my best anyway. It was such a relief after it was over. The next day we had our presentation and what did you know, Miss Hasimah liked my group's presentation. Alhamdulillah, I was smiling all the way.

Oh yes ! On Monday, I presented my Home Page assignment in the class. It was a pair work and my partner was Yi Ting. However, she wasn't present but Madam Nadiah allowed me to present it anyway for her behalf and so I did. Alhamdulillah again, our work was very satisfying to Madam Nadiah. Thank you, Madam !

On Friday, I had a big group discussion with my Keusahawanan group members for that particular subject. We had to start and finish an assignment called Rancangan Perniagaan. It is very similar to our Business English Proposal however, in Keusahawanan, Madam Masuzana wanted it in more detail. So yes, it started off well, beginning to get rough in the middle and was a catastrophe in the end. Everyone was tired and yes, we were tired.

I'm just hoping for my dear heart to bear all of this exhaustion that I am facing due to completing all the assignments. Final Exam is coming up soon. Can't wait to get back...

Week Nine Reflection

Hi & Assalammualaikum ! 

It's Week 9, well now look at that ! Week 9 already and we are almost at the end of Semester 3. Come to think of it, it is rather sad thinking about all the sweet memories during my studies here in Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris. I'll be finishing in the early year of 2015. 

Now stop with the sad part shall we and let's get going with what happened in Week 9. Always the same with the previous weeks. Assignments, assignments, assignments ! Yes, assignments. Loads of them. I went back home during Thaipusam then came back last Sunday and get started straight away on my business proposal. It was a group work so my teammates & I were struggling like crazy to work on the basic of the proposal. But we didn't get to finish it, even though we worked on it from 12 pm till 10 pm. So we continued until Tuesday. I got back to my hostel at 8 pm, 2 nights in a row. It was really a record for me. I was so freaking exhausted but I could never find the time to sit down and rest. 

In addition, I also have a Business English Quiz and Keusahwanan Mid-Term Test. Yes, that adds in more pressure for me. Nevertheless, I tried my best and got through it. It was quite a relief for me when I learn that we'll be having a week holiday for Chinese New Year. So yes, I'm on my holiday now. BUT, I still have to complete all of the ASSIGNMENTS. 

Pray that I'll get through it. 

Week Eight Reflection

Assalammualaikum & good day everyone. Here we are again, writing reflections for our blogs. So what week is it now ? Yes, you guessed it, it is Week Eight.

Well nothing much happened in this week. On Monday, we finally got to present our Self-Banner to Madam Nadiah in her class. So that's a relief. But then, here comes the next assignment. Two assignments ! Interactive Resume & Homepage. *sigh... I'll be looking forward to finish it during the Chinese New Year week break. Yeahh that's it, another week of holiday.

Last Tuesday was a public holiday, nevertheless I spent it finishing Miss Maria's task which is writing an interpretation of a short story she had given us. Then I continued with revising for Miss Hasimah's Business English test for the next day. But guess what... She cancelled the test ! I don't know whether to be happy about it or not because...

SHE GAVE US A BIG ASSIGNMENT WHICH IS DUE NEXT WEEK. *heart attack.

That's right, we have to produce a business proposal and present it next week on Wednesday. In my point of view, this proposal can never be done within a week because it need to done in detail. So how can we do it within a week. Plus, Friday is a public holiday, and I went back home. Yes that's right, I took the risk. But I couldn't sit back & relax either. 

Never mind. If she wants it on Wednesday, I'll make sure that my group and I will finish it and have it by next Wednesday. InsyaAllah aminnnn ~

Week Seven Reflection

Assalammualaikum & Hi everyone !

It's Week 7 already, gosh ! I can't believe it.

Let's continue with what happened in this week shall we ?

Nothing much, just the usual hustle and bustle of completing all the assignments. We got Self-Banner, Academic Writing Group Presentation, Website, Short Story Interpretations... and many more !

Yes, you heard me. Those are just the beginning. In fact, there are lots more to come. I'm genuinely worried, especially about time. It seems to me, time is catching up and though I didn't procrastinate yet, it still feels as if I haven't started on anything. It's stressing, I know. Tell me about it.

What I'm so bumped about this week is that, there should have been two presentations to be settled but due to 'some' reasons, we just had to reschedule and postpone it to the next week. I hate this. Why ? Because I thought, if these presentations were settled, then we can move on to the next assignments. Hmm....

Never mind, Let's just get going shall we ? Though there are so many work, I'm still looking forward to going back home next Thursday. Life had been quite hectic these past few weeks for me & I could use some rest.

I guess that's all. See you guys in the next post. Bubye ! :)

Week Six Reflection

Good afternoon, everyone ! It's almost noon, yes almost noon. 

So what's up this week ? Nothing much though. I just got back from my mid semester break last week, and everyone was still in their holiday mood. On top of that, most of the classes were cancelled.. so... yeayyyyy ! So everyone was pretty lazy this week, including me.

However, with our holidays ending, that means coming back to assignments for us. Yes, loads of works to be done and all of them are due next week. Yes, next week. 

So yes, I am stressed out, I am exhausted, and I am so, so, so, so lazy ! I guess everyone are also in the same page as me. What the heck, might as well finish it or I'll be in trouble.

Other then assignments, nothing is up. Just ordinary, boring days. I spent my holidays in Johor Bahru because my Dad lives there & my Mom wanted to be there to accompany him before she started working after Christmas. New year was quite sad for me because I didn't get the chance to get back home and spend it with my family. It was even more emotional for me because 1st January was my Mom's birthday. Nevertheless, I spent it with Sofea, my friend, by going out to Mid Valley Megamall. We had some awesome time together. 

I guess that's about it for Week Six. Bye !
