Changes

Salam Maal Hijrah, 1 Muharam 1434 H. I'm feeling kind of emotional today... This college I'm staying in is very good, I must say. After Asar they recited the Doa Awal Tahun and after Maghrib they recited the  Doa Akhir Tahun, through the speaker. For someone like me who didn't know where to search for the prayers except through Google, it was really a great help. And I'm just so glad I ended up staying here :') (Though sometimes I feel bothered by the never-ending announcements...) It's a new year. Let's open a whole new chapter. Thing is, for the past few days I've been having more than 180 friends liking my picture on Facebook. I suddenly became famous! Hohoho...

I finished my final exam at 12.30 noon, and yes, exactly the same day, I took a bus to Kelantan. It was my second time going to Gua Musang. I went for an outreach, a tiger conservation programme.

is so overrated. You wore something new, they said your boyfriend got it for you. You're smiling all day, they said you just met your boyfriend. You dressed up a bit, wore something nice, they said you're about to go on a date. You excel in your studies, they said your boyfriend motivates you. You gained weight, they said you have a good appetite... Because you're happy with your boyfriend. You lose weight, they said you just broke up. Or, your boyfriend motivates you to lose weight. I had on spectacles the other day. A friend of mine asked if my boyfriend got it for me. Duh...
