Feed 2017

Salam 'alayk and heyya guys!

Currently it's past midnight and I've just done with my portion of group assignment.

Today since early morning after subh, I've been busy preparing for my sister's guests, the house, the food, yeah particularly the food. So many things to do, even with pre-prep some food like curry and masak merah. But even then, we barely caught up with time setting things and getting ourselves prepared (my sister especially!)

Later, alhamdulillah we managed to did it all. Nasi tomato and 2 dishes, acar timun, puddings, even some food that the guests were so generous to bring.

Guests do bring rezeki to us.

Aside from all that hussle and clothes reek of stir fry, I ate so much from today's eating session. The ayam masak merah was so good, that the moment I got it tasted on my tongue is the time I realised how much I've missed ayam masak merah. (am so tired of cafes food that i bought the same thing everyday).

Then the desserts! Cakes, brownies, and puddings! Too much sweetness that I got a bit worried seeing how the kids stuffed themselves with sugar. But its okay, (thank God!), everything was under control. XD


Anyway, long story shorten, I've ate so much, my stomach was about to burst and I feel like I could vomit if I jump up and down like the kids (how they can eat so much and still active? wait they didn't, really eat).

So, in order to empty some space in my stomach for dinner later, I rode on exercise bicycle after the guests have gone home. I exercised until it reached 10 km, only then I felt much better with my stomach. Goodness eating too much won't do any good (except for the satisfaction!)


Thennn after dinner cleaning and all, in the night, after we all got bored of Pahang vs NSE on tv9, my BIL gave me permission to take in charge of the screen. Oh well, but I didn't know what to watch.

But then there's this one movie caught my attention. Feed (2017). A bit creepy, and also a bit educating (I think?)



It's about a pair of twins. A girl and a boy. Both are living a good life, doing good at school, high achievers and all. And most importantly they shared almost everything, like schedules, friends, and dreams.



But it all came to stop when something happened, and it has affected so much to the girl, Olivia (Troian Bellisario). From a valedictorian, her grades fluctuated and dropped hard. She had hard time coping daily lives. She started hearing, seeing things.

That's just not it. The situation has worsen that it has transformed her to an aneroxic. This is where I think it's educating. Because the story shows that people have aneroxia not solely due to their desire to be 'beautiful' and 'slim'. It can be because of psychological problem. Something that they experienced, but others can't seem to detect it.

I've always thought that people who are aneroxic are those that are obsessed with being 'slim', and hatred towards fat. But no! Trauma can also cause this disease.

Wait! I'm sure you guys know what's aneroxia right? -it's an eating disorder.

So, since I've learned something new, from other perspective from this story, though it's a bit creepy, I'd give this movie a 4-star.

-it got a good storyline
-creative and soulful!
-opens up minds on aneroxia nervosa

I won't tell more details on this movie. You gotta watch this on your own and experience Olivia's sufferings!

(btw, it's the Malfoy acted as the male twin!)


Eat well guys!

324 Megapixels

Last weekend was a good and bad weekend for me.

Good because I got to spent times with friends whom I rarely seen or talked to and also with my sisters and BIL.

Bad because I've spent over my budget. *sucks being a student*


On Friday late morning my friends and I went for some breaklunch (at least for me) outside campus. It all started when this one friend, Syi, a fan of steamboat, wanted to try Seoul Garden at KL Fest with another friend, Mun.

Syi have been lots to steamboat restaurants before, and I believe she invited me to all of the events, but I happen to declined them all except for last Friday when she asked me to join her on Thursday.

So I said yes, partly because I've never eat out with her but once before during foundation, and partly I rarely eat steamboat. Once in a while won't hurt right?

Plus, I was planning to stay at my sis's house at Putrajaya, so I might as well spend the whole day outside, getting fresh, and clear up mind (and pockets).

Woke up late. Was frantic packing things. And thank God Syi and Mun was patience with me. I thought they were gonna left me that morning.

So at Seoul Garden, we had to pay RM35 each, and that's at stundet's price. We have to show our matric cards of course to give some proves. Oh, and that price is for lunch.

Ok, I know everyone have been to Seoul Garden and know that its pay per entrance and rows of buffet will flash at you. But I didn't. So I was pretty blur at first and what to do, what do I eat, what's this? is that clamps? wait it says COFFEE MEAT??? -could never eat that.

So yeah, we had our time there, pretty much spent 2 total hours just for eating, we ate the tomyum soup, grilled so much things, then ice cream and salads, it just never ends until our stomachs about to explode!

The tomyum is an o.k . The rest is, not good on my taste buds.


After we had our lunch, we spent some time a bit for shopping and handbags (WOOOT WOOOT) before we seperated for campus for them and Putrajaya for me. But we shared Grabcar till LRT Station. hihi.

Am actually glad they asked me out.


Then I went for my sis's, and it was actually late, I promised my sis to be at Putrajaya Sentral at 6pm, but I was late. Again. Then we thought I'd catch up the 1813 train from KL Sentral, but with me lining up at Chatime for her, and ran for ticket when they announced 2mins left for departure, I was flying down the stairs to the train, and THE DOORS CLOSED RIGHT ON MY FACE!

I was late by 3 seconds OMG! I pushed the button for the door to open but it didn't, instead the train pull in it's foot steps. I was so devastated with Pearl Milk Tea in hand but hide it inside in case the commuters were having a good day watching at my evening drama.

So had to wait for another 15mins and successfully gotten the train. With not-so-cold-anymore Pearl Milk Tea.



BUT it's okay! I don't really care about that, as long as my sis is picking me up and I'm gonna have the whole weekend with my family, YEAY!

Another is that I never forget that I am in love with her house. She and the husband bought it not long ago, so it was pretty new, and they managed to design it so well! However the most important thing is, THE VIEW!



Look at how beautiful the sunset! Seeing all this have reminded me on how powerful, and beautiful God is! Look at this God's creation! The sky has the perfect colour mix!

It's calming.


And not to forget these creations.

She was having ANTM's vibe right here, but totally failed. And I was just ruining the pic XD

Look alike, or nothing's alike?

However the pictures were taken with my Samsung J5, the camera is totally not the best. The pictures turn out different from what I see.

And do you know why? We, humans have 324 Megapixels, in comparison to my 16 megapixels camera at most.

Alhamdulillah for His greatest creation.

End of semester! 2, 2016/2017

Yo guys!

Last two posts were during the early start of semester and now I'm done with it! Wow I'm so great at giving false hopes.

So my exams has officially ended last Friday morning which happened for a month (because I have a gap of 3 weeks!). It's cool. It's great to finally have my courses done for this semester, and now I can move on for the next courses, which is a huge headache for me.

Can you imagine I misorganised my study plan?! I took my core courses before I even finished my kulliyyah courses which is damn I could've done better.

But anyways, what's done is done. I'll just take 4 arabic courses next sem and move on. (cries in a corner).


I'm so happy and glad I've finished this semester with little regret! Alhamdulillah. I didn't actually feel remorse about what I've done this semester. Despite me neglecting my study planner (what a waste), I managed to study accordingly and strive for exams and presentations and quizzes. Of course with a lot of whines and droopy eyes while Maryam suffer with my beings. Haha bestfriend forever aite?

Checklist halfway through semester


Another thing that is super good and I'm so glad about is that I had my two papers on the first week of Ramadan, the fasting month! Many students had shown their displeases with the management for putting exams on fasting month, but hey I think it's a blessing! Even though I had my suffer as I couldn't go home for 1st sahoor with my family (because all my sisters went back without me!), I found the fate Allah's put me in is for good measure (missing family gatherings isn't really anything... .. )

Well apart from it being a blessing month, with all dua will be granted and double rewards for good deeds, I've gotten a bit proactive in this holy month. Because after sahoor I'd try my best to not to go back sleep, and pray fajr prayer, recitations and all. So after that, around 730 to 800, I'd start on simple reading on my oncoming paper to rev up my brain, before taking naps later. (sucker).

This is not simple reading, but this is how I usually study



Usually I'd be so lazy to be active in the early morning. Like tonnes of bricks hanging under my eyelids. Sometimes I wonder how people at 4 seasons regions get to wake up at 5 am and go for jogging. IT'S FREAKING DARK! Well maybe its because they're at 4 seasons regions, the light comes up early. Here, I wouldn't even go out at seven. Sunshine is still shy.

Another good things about exams in Ramadan is that since I stayed awake during those week, I've gotten myself falling in love with morning lights! I just realized how blessed people who witnessed morning rise and breathe in morning air. It was wonderful! Plus my window was facing at pretty good view, I was totally into mornings! Who knew mornings could be so good!

Morning sky is beautiful. Just showed how wonderful Allah is. (Picture from Google)


Last paper


Cleansing my phone's gallery from heavy last-minute notes (usually for before-exam)

Wawak saying buhbye and see ya in July dear Gombak!


Have a wonderful and bless Ramadan!

I'm Back To School!

Assalamualaikum and hi guys!

I'm trying my best to post regularly, trying to make my bluff in earlier post a reality. I even made a list for future posts! 😁
So this is a good start right? Somewhat my unwritten new year resolution (goodness I am so late 😂)

So its 2017! When new year comes it is always a hype for everyone to start anew and get a new book of life! For some, new year means upgrading school life and be cooler than before 😎

While a month has passed for primary and secondary schools, I've just started my new semester yesterday! (I sound like a joy but really I do) During my semester break, I was doing nothing about college and reading, I was so not anticipating to go back to Gombak. I even dreaded it. But the time must come. Huh.

So I have to be realistic. New semester about to start, I'm gonna be a second year student, there is no way I can evade education. Hah. Education guys! I had to be prepared! Need to climb all that good grades and cgpa for a better future (sun is blinding upfront). Wow.

So what did I do? Well actually I did nothing. I started preparing when I packed my things for Gombak the day before departure (LOL), and that are mostly clothes and food. But I need to get into the spirit of learning! Then I have this one instagram account, dedicated just for studying, named @nurmiastudious . So I opened that instagram, and updated pictures of my books and such, and scrolled through other people's studygram (short form for study instagram , like studyblr). And... it worked! Well, a bit.

Okay my motivation rose a bit. Got inspirations to study from super-shockingly-good students all over the world. And my mom and sis brainwashed me to aim for higher. Higher what? Grapes. 😂

Then in Gombak, the night before my classes starts, I checked my pre-registered subjects and the venues for tomorrow. Packed my things. Update my bullet journal (I just started late January). Watched some study vlogs by @waystostudy. I swear her videos are so inspiring you that don't even realise you are procrastinating watching her studying. After all that no-fuss I pretended that I was prepared. Because I didn't. Really.

I ACTUALLY GOT INTO THE WRONG CLASSES TWICE! TWICE GUYS! Can you believe it? And it was all because my classes started on Tuesday, and I was looking on my Monday schedule. Luckily I didn't miss any class because of my mishap. Dang girl.

However-so, I was actually productive that day! This is all thanks to my own created bullet journal, I'm a bit more organised than before with all my realistic to-do-list. (angkat bakul). But it's true!


Aside from my classes, I also spent my day updating my study planner. Printed out new Semester Planner and My Study Planner 6 sets (one for each subject) that I used for last semester. The study planner was really helpful with my studies last time. I get to tracked on topics of each subjects everyday and plan my study sessions! I got these two printable planners from theorganisedstudent.tumblr . You guys should check it out. She prepared a lot of other printables, but I'm using only these two for my studies.

While I was doing my study planner.


However, I forgot to print my class logs. Because I made the template by myself, so I kinda forgot about it. When I was sorting the planners in my study file, it was then I noticed. And I had to make a new one. Class logs is to jot down lessons for sessions each classes. So everyday I'll write down the topics discussed according to each subject. I got both study planner and class logs idea from a senior in my university. I'll share my class logs with you guys later.

Completed semester's planner. And an example of  class logs.



So that was how my messy preparation and clumsy 1st day went by. But all in all it was all good. I enjoyed my day. And seriously watching waystostudy videos are so inspiring you'll get motivated just by watching her videos! I can't get out of myself her spirits in studying! I'm smeared with her spirits! HAHA

My day ended really early, I fainted as soon as I cleaned myself . So so tired.


Thats it guys. How my 1st day of my new semester went by. I don't know if this will help you guys with your studies, I don't share many tips, but I hope it will! Btw don't forget to check out my studygram @nurmiastudious !

Have a nice day!
