i have led quite the interesting life in my whole 2 years and 1 month in NYP. Today was Graduation Ceremony for the School of Health Sciences and I was given such a great opportunity to present an item, a present from us juniors, to our graduating seniors, on stage.

never in my whole entire life have I ever had such an amazing opportunity. okay, the last i remembered was when I was in Primary 6 and I was given the chance to give a speech about my teacher for Teachers’ Day. 

i feel really blessed because i was able to experience a lot of things whilst in NYP. from being a dancer in flashmobs, to being an ambassador for SYOG 2010, and not forgetting representing NYP in French Student Idol 2010, awarded the Director’s List (although it was only for Year 1…. :/ my classmate is just TOO SMART don’t judge me.) and then leading students through a Nature Trail organized by National Geographic, and today, going on stage. Alhamdulillah. My rezeki is found in all of these and I can’t help but feel satisfied. Next year, when it’s my turn to graduate, I will still feel satisfied because my life in NYP has been nothing short of amazing. 

the lecturer in-charge of Graduation told me during one of the rehearsals that, “Atiqah, you’re really very good. You could potentially be our Graduate Speaker for next year.” I am looking forward to do that next year, InsyaAllah. Just these words can keep me going. 

This shall be my new goal: To be the Graduate Speaker for Graduation 2013.

I realised one thing. In NYP, I have been given so many positive words of encouragement. Perhaps, this is why I am able to grow and experience so much. Perhaps, this is why I feel like I can stretch my limits. Perhaps, this is why I know that I can do the impossible. Because, I know that people believe in my ability.

So. It’s time to work even harder, yet smarter as well. Graduation 2013 will be an exciting one too, InsyaAllah! :D

pinching myself everyday and telling myself this is FINALLY happening. Dreams do come true!! I’ve been telling myself to work hard since Year 2 and get the chance to experience attachment in London and here I am, ACTUALLY preparing to go to London in about a month’s time. 

I can’t even…

I feel so extremely blessed right now. Alhamdulillah. Syukur Alhamdulillah!

Kris' vanity habits

  • Lay talking about Kris vanity was so much win. Lay was much more talkative!
  • Question: ...who cares about outer appearances the most.
  • *most wands pointed at Kris*
  • MC: Kris. It seems you were picked the most.
  • Kris: *narrows his eyes to the members* How can you guys do this to me?
  • MC: How long do you take to get ready.
  • Kris: I don't take that long.
  • MC: Then why did they chose you. Lay why did you pick Kris? I get the feeling that you're an honest person. Tell me the truth.
  • Lay: Before he sleeps he likes to rub stuff on his face and often does it on my right side.
  • Kris: *laughed then looked down*
  • MC: What do you mean by that?
  • Lay: ...Kris will suddenly come on my right side with a mirror and start rubbing things on
  • MC: For about how long?
  • Lay: About...30 minutes..15 minutes
  • MC: Who else picked Kris. Tao did you pick Kris?
  • Tao: Yes,,,
  • MC: Why?
  • Tao: When Kris and I go out shopping or something, he always fixes his hair. He fixes his hair for a long time.
  • Tao: Every time I'm done putting on my clothes on, and I say, "Duizhang, you're still not coming out yet?"
  • Tao: He says, "Okay, okay, in a moment." After he says that I still have to wait 5-10 minutes.

puing-puing:

LAY: Before sleeping, he likes to rub stuff on his face. He likes to do it on my right side. For example, when I’m making music on my computer, he suddenly sits beside me with the mirror in front of him and starts to rub. I don’t know what he’s rubbing on his face, I don’t pay attention.

when a person wants to sincerely contribute some form of money, i think it is only respectful to accept it.

I know we feel guilty because she did the same thing last year, but let’s show our appreciation and respect for this person by accepting it. I don’t understand why my classmates want to reject her offer even though she has been insisting on contributing so many times. I repeat: SO MANY TIMES.

I don’t think it’s nice to actually reject a person who wants to sincerely contribute to the fund. Perhaps, you know, this money could help reduce the burden for some of us who are working day and night endlessly and skipping classes (occassionally), just to support ourselves!

Sigh.. Need. To. Let. It. Off. My. Chest.
