Sistar.

Assalamualaikum. :)

One of the things I never expected to do is liking a Korean girls group. I mean, liking Running Man was alright because it is definitely entertaining but liking a girls group? Never in my whole life I thought of it. I first got to know them through a song called Touch My Body. Catchy tune, great dance moves, beautiful girls with beautiful voices. Who wouldn't get hooked? One thing for sure is that I started listening to that only song by them because I watched the dance practice video on Facebook. It was the only song from them that I liked.

Having three close friends who likes/loves Kpop made me listen to the girls more. They introduced me to other songs such as I Swear, Alone and Give It To Me. HAAAAHHH. I find myself loving the girls more and more. I ended up watching an episode of Running Man with Hyolyn and Dasom in it and also Sistar Showtime (although there's only one episode with English sub up on Youtube. Still waiting for more). It's so weird because I didn't expect to get hooked to this girls group JUST by watching one of their dance practices. Really, Zu? Just that one video could change everything. Haha!

As of now, I'm thinking of buying their album but I'm not quite sure yet. I still have One Direction's album and DVD to buy. I can't afford to collect another artist's albums and DVDs. Yes, it's my hobby. Haha! If I really do like/love/admire them, I'd support by buying their albums. I don't know, it's just how I've grown up with since Dafi and David. Being an ArchAngel taught me a lot. It taught me how hard an artist try to compose songs and make it into an album. A lot of hard work is put into making a simple album. Really. As a fangirl, I find it important to do my part which is buying their albums legally. Although I know that most of the money goes to the company? I have no idea. But whatever it is, I hope that my contribution is enough.

That is all for now. This is such a random post but I find the need to blog about my interest in Sistar. :D Of course, my bias is Dasom but I THINK I LIKE HYOLYN MORE NOW?!?! IDK. Help. I have four days left being at home. Can't wait to get back to college although I must say that I'll really miss home.

overly attached

Assalamualaikum.

Something have been bothering me for the past one week. It's about attachment. I think I'm a person who constantly need company. Honestly, I am quite sad that everyone is leaving for semester break. It IS a semester break, why would I be sad? Everyone is happy that they're finally meeting their family they have missed so much. Oddly for me, I don't really miss home. Probably because I won't have anyone to interact with at home because they're all in school or working. Yep. Plus, the only company I had is gone forever.

I have grown attached to this varsity, I think. The friends here, the environment, my roommates, my seniors, the lectures, buses, taxis, the mall, the cats, the monkeys, basically everything. This is so weird. My friend said that once I adapt to my surroundings, I get attached to them and when it's time to leave, I'd be emotional. Haha. What is wrong with me, actually? I cried so hard last night because I kept thinking that I'd miss everyone. I'm glad I had my girls with me. I still feel bad that they had to watch me cry and they'd have to sacrifice their time for me. But that's what friends are for kehkehkeh. I love them.

I am so in love with the place I am in right now. I have no idea why. Maybe because I have company. I told my family that I didn't mind not going back and it was up to them if they wanted to book a flight for me or not. I honestly didn't care about not going back. Well, of course I miss my family and want to meet them again, just because I don't know when they will be gone. But still, I didn't mind not going back. Maybe because I know that even if I go back, they'll be away. I don't meet them often as everyone is busy with their own things to do. Ugh.

Yes, I know that Allah is always there. Maybe the fact that He is always there doesn't stick in my mind a lot. I still have a lot to learn and honestly, with the environment I'm in, I find it quite hard to do so. First step is always the hardest they say, and it's true. I've once talked to my friend about me having the hidayah. I was like, yes, I know everything, I know what I should and shouldn't do. But do I actually do them, avoid them? No. That's where my friend said, I have hidayah but no taufik. Taufik and hidayah goes hand in hand. Alhamdulillah He has granted me the latter but oh. my. gosh. it's so hard.

This stubborn soul. Agh. It'll change, in sha Allah. I know He's there. I know He'll help. I know He's always there, helping me along the way and He never once stopped. I am so blessed.

And if an evil suggestion comes to you from Satan, then seek refuge in Allah . Indeed, He is Hearing and Knowing.

Surah Al-A'raf. 7:200

I found this in a book I was reading called Versus by Hlovate. I could never finish that book because I don't have the heart to finish it. I don't know. I just feel emotional reading it and I discovered many things. Reading it is really an eyeopener. Omg this post is getting so long. I shall stop here. I need to reset my body clock.

Assalamualaikum. 

bored. (procrastination actually)

Assalamualaikum.

WHY AM I HERE AGAIN? Hahah! To procrastinate of course... finals starts this Monday (29th) until 14th with tons of gaps. Five papers to sit. Hah. Wish me luck. I didn't study much. I wish I did and will do. Omg. It's just so hard. Yes, all the sins I did is making the knowledge hard to be absorbed like what am I even saying right now. Currently listening to Taylor Swift's 1989. It's a really, really good album. I like it maybe mostly because of the lyrics that I can relate to as well as her voice and simply the music. Woohoo.

I am in love with her songs. I'm supposed to be studying Ethnic Relation. Lol. So much to read but I just @_@ because it's in Malay. I mean, yes, I do understand them but the sentences are sometimes tangled up like Idek you'd have to read them over and over again to fully grasp the meaning. But I guess it's just my weakness. I mean, as a Malaysian, I should probably understand it the first time I read it but noooo. Or maybe I'm not focused enough. Haih I know my grammar is all messed up now. I don't even care anymore. Actually I do and still care but WATUDU. ~_~

I'm actually waiting for someone to whatsapp me. I was gonna order KFC but Idk when is that person gonna whatsapp me. ~_~  I WANT MY FOOD. Lel. What am I even doing. I've been in my room for three days straight. I mean, I did go out for lunch and dinner but other than that, I'm basically on my bed either sleeping, on the laptop, 'reading' or on my phone. Zzzzz. I miss David. :( I miss my family. Actually I don't but maybe I do. Idek. Idk what do I really feel about my family. Lol but what I know is that I really, really love them. 

Omg I just touched my chin and I have double chin it's so ugly and fat ergh. It's just there like blegh bleh hai I exist lel. fat zulaikha is fat. ok I am not fat but I carry more fats than I should. happy?! no. obviously I'm not happy lol but to those who say that "zulaikha you're not fat", well, I carry excessive fats, that's all. Okbye. Take care. wish me luck for my finals. I need to get really, really good pointers. In sha Allah. Also pray for the victims of flood in Malaysia. Yes, it's really bad. In sha Allah everything will be alright. He has His plannings. Look forward.

travel wishlist

Assalamualaikum.

It's been a long time huh? I'm just gonna update a little bit, just to touch on travelling. Been busy with assignments and other stuffs such as SUKMUM where I'm one of the AJKs. Another thing is practice for theatre which is Karviter and also Boria. @_@ For Karviter, I'm one of the actors and for Boria, I'm one of the sailors(which are the dancers). Cool stuff.

Anyway, back to my intention here. I'd like to list down the places I've yet to travel to, in Malaysia.

1. Cameron Highlands
2. Fraser's Hill
3. Legoland, Johor
4. National Zoo
5. National Park
6. Peak of Mount Kinabalu

I guess that's all for now? Haha. I'm truly grateful to be given the opportunity to travel to other places in Malaysia with my family. Still yet to go to the places in the list with them. However, I'm not sure if we'd be able to do so with my parents growing old and my siblings having their own family and such. Ah, well. What's important is that we're still together as a happy family. :)

Ok bye. HAHA. There's a closing ceremony for SUKMUM tonight and I'm joining the flashmob with my other friends. So excited!!! :D Pray for us. In sha Allah everything will be alright and we'll win something. But most of all, we'll have fun.

Fi hifzillah.

Minggu Keluarga Bestari 2014/2015

Assalamualaikum!

How are you doing? I hope you're fine and dandy.

Life in UM has been amazing. It did get tiring but most of the time, everything seems so much fun. Last week, we had Minggu Keluarga Bestari or MKB. I'm in Fire Nation. My 'papa' is Sufi while my 'mama' is Deqla. I also have Kak Long, Kak Ngah and Kak Cik as well as 'brothers'.

For the first night, we had an introduction about MKB, the projects they're going to hold as well as a q&a session with the college's administration. After the event was over, we gathered with our families, mine being Fire Nation. They briefed us about some things and we learnt cheers.

Second night, we had academic night. The games held were debat kakyah, alih suara, snake and ladder and... I don't remember what else. It was very entertaining to see them play the games and I laughed so hard. Oh, that evening, I had to play volleyball for my family because we didn't have enough players. Ended up winning so we headed to the finals on Saturday.

On the third day, I was supposed to play futsal but I didn't because I had to practice for arts night (?). Azfar, Adlina, Mukhlis, Amirul, Yong and I practiced the Aci, Aci, Buka Pintu by P. Ramlee. It was extremely tiring but we had so much fun! We prepared the props and our family members did too. That night, we got ready and we were so eager to perform. Well, at least I was. The moment when they saw Mukhlis acted as Aci, a female character, they cheered and everyone were laughing their asses off. Other performances that night were singing, parody and xfactor. They were very entertaining but sadly, I only watched like, a few because I was busy preparing in the seminar room.

Finally, the last night. OHHH wait. That morning there were aerobic and sukaneka as well as finals for the sports. I didn't join the aerobic and the run. I woke up late because it was raining and sleeping in felt so good. I did go down to support and play sukaneka. I played this game where we had to use a sponge to absorb water(obviously) and transfer it into a water bottle. We all got wet. Haha! But it was so fun and intense. I think we got last. Oh wells. I'll just skip until volleyball. Well, we didn't play much. Dayang and Aini played the most. Why? They kept giving service but the opponent we so weak, the ball was never passed around. So, Alhamdulillah, we won!

Okay, moving on.... that night was fun. I KEEP USING THE WORD 'FUN'!! My vocabulary sucks. In sha Allah, I'll improve. Okay, let's move on to the prize giving session. We, the Fire Nation, won.... volleyball for both male and female, futsal for female, best cheer, most uniformed family for each night, singing, xfactor (me hehe) aaaaaand.... I'm not sure what else. Haha! Alhamdulillah. I think we got about 6 hampers! Haha. Ohh, Papa Sufi won 9th for the running event while Peah got.... I don't remember but top 10. :D

All in all, MKB was so much fun. I am so grateful to be put into this college because since day one, it had been really welcoming, warm and Idk. I'm running out of adjectives to use. The seniors are very sporting and friendly. I don't know. I just love it here. I'm grateful to have a bunch of great friends too. I would totally be lost if they were not here. Nadiah, Izzah, Ereen, Adlina, Azfar, Eleena, Munirah, Ikha. So, so, so blessed and grateful. The PMs are great too. Hazel, Gra, Sufi, Afiq..... erm they're the ones I'm kind of close to right now. Haha! Closest would be Hazel and Sufi. :) Ohhh! Faiz is quite alright too. Gahhh I just love them.

Alright, this is the end of this post. Haha! It's five minutes to eleven. Okay, nanight. Thanks for reading this whole thing, if you did. Fi hifzillah.

Assalamualaikum.
