I miss Z class Now, I'm in a new semester, new class, new teachers, and new classmates. I really miss my previous class. I really miss Z class. They are more cheerful. Lesson became more interesting when they were around. Most of Z class students are now In Mechanical Engineering class. I am in Electrical and Electronic Class. Besides that, I really miss our lectures during that time. First year university is getting tougher. Need to study really hard. By the way, we have juniors now. I am not sure should I be happy to have juniors or not.

Chemistry in Japanese I can still accept when Mathematics in Japanese as in Mathematics, when answering it, we just need to understand the question and then the solution is by using numbers and equations. As for Chemistry, we need to understand the question and memorize how to elaborate the answer in Japanese. There is much new Chemistry vocabulary that we need to memorize. Till now, I still can't remember all the Japanese terms use in Chemistry. I have tried my best to memorize all of it but it is really hard for me. I nearly give up memorizing the terms but when I rethink about it, it was my own choice in choosing the path. It was my own choice when I accepted to enter Jad's program. Therefore, I just need to give my best in my study in Jad now.

Final We will be sitting for our final exam in just less than one month. If we fail in the exam, we will be dismissing. I am really scared to sit for the final exam as even now we have no much time to study for the exam. Every day we have Japanese quiz and every week we have a science test which I mean here is whether Mathematics, Chemistry, Engineering or Physics test. Besides that, we also have many presentations to prepare for including Islamic Studies, English and Engineering. So many works and things to do until I feel there is no time for me to study or prepare for the final exam. I am a homesick type of person and I really want to go home every week, but because of these things, I can't go home. I want to meet my parents and release my stress but I can't. Now, I just hope I can do well in the final exam.

I'm Okay Strong people know how to keep their life in order. Even with tears in their eyes, they still manage to say "I'm okay" with a smile. - Dr.Indrajit Rana My first thought when I read this quote is, its really remind me of myself. I am not saying that I am strong but sometimes I just need to pretend that I am strong to show others that I am okay all the time. There was a situation when my friends asked me don't I feel stress being in this tough course that I'm studying right now, and with smile, I just answered, "Even though this course is so tough, still I think I am just okay with it." But actually deep inside my heart, I really want to cry. I don't know why I keep pretending that I am strong. Maybe to give others spirits or I just don't want to show others my weakness. I really don't know why I keep doing that. Besides that, whenever I have problem, I will also pretend to be okay. I will try my best to show others that I am okay. Even when my friends hurt me, I will still say that I am okay. Should I stop pretending and show others whenever I feel not okay? Honestly, sometimes I felt really tired to say I am okay.

Be strong I am a student of Japanese Associate Degree Program. Being in this program really makes me feel really tired. Everyday we have Japanese quiz. Nowadays, I think almost every week we have test. Either Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry test. Last Monday, we had Islamic Studies test. Then, on Wednesday, we had Mathematics test. I had to sleep at 4.30 a.m for two days to study for the test and it really made me felt really tired. I am not feeling really well this week. Maybe it is because of not enough rest. I really want to rest! I want to have a good sleep, a good rest. I really want to go home and meet my family. But I know, I can't. It is not always easy in life. To succeed, we need to sacrifice. I need to be strong in this life:')

マレーシアの人種 マレーシアはとても楽しくておもしろい国です。色々な人種があります。たとえばマレー系や中華系やインド系などがあります。とてもにぎやかなくにです。 ５５年ぐらい前にマレーシアは英国から独立を宣言しました。そのときマレーシアの国民は色々な人種になりました。それで、色々な人種がありますから、さまざまな文化があります。たとえば、ザピンダンスはマレー系の文化です。それから、ライオンダンスは中華系の文化です。マレーシアで色々な文化が見られます。 さらに、マレーシアで自由に自分の宗教をしんこうできますから、たような宗教があります。イスラム教やキリスト教などがあります。それで、たくさんおまつりがあります。とてもおもしろいです。ハリラヤはマレー系のおまつりです。中華系のおまつりは「タホンバルシナ」といいます。それに、インド系のおまつりはディーパバリです。 さまざまな人種がありますから、マレーシアはとても楽しいと思います。色々な文化が見られますから、うれしくなります。私はマレーシアが大好きです。

Just be yourself I really don't get it when people want to be something or someone they are not. They always want that chance to be pretty, popular, rich, or just fit in even it is just for an hour, minute, or a few seconds. It is really hard to be someone you are not. The best thing to do in life is just be yourself. You don't have to be afraid to hear others criticisms about you. Just trust yourself in everything you do and be yourself. It is really hard to satisfy all people because all of them have their own opinions about you. Maybe some of them think nice about you but others not. So, the best thing to do is just be yourself and satisfy yourself. I'm sure by doing so, you will feel much better. Next thing is you should stop comparing yourself to others. If you are always striving to be someone you are not already, you will never be happy. Avoid being unfair to yourself as sometimes comparison causes us to compare apples with pears. You should only look to others as inspiration or a source of motivation, not as a means to belittling yourself. Never stop looking for your own strengths and follow your own style :)

Home Sweet Home Last Saturday, I went back to my home. I felt really happy on that day. I had waited for one month to meet my parents. Even that so, I still felt lonely on that day because my dear siblings were not there. My older sister is now furthering her studies in Australia while my younger brother is in a boarding school. Then I sent message to my friends that I was bored. She asked me to go back to college if I was bored staying at home. Even though I felt bored when staying at home without my dear siblings, home is still the best place for me. Like a saying, "home sweet home." For me, that's how I feel each time I'm going back to my home. Last but not least, even though I was bored on that day, I knew that my parents were really happy to see me. They treated me like a princess. My mother prepared all my favourite foods on that day.

Smile Smile is the best cure for all sickness in the world. It helps sick people to be happier and feel better. It makes angry people feel better too. Just imagine a day without smile, how will your day be? Will you feel happy on that day? Mother Teresa once said, "Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love". For me, it is one of the great quotes from her. Smile is really important in life as it will bring people happiness and love. It makes one person feel better. Whenever you feel sad, angry or stress, by looking at someone with smile, you will certainly feel good. When I was a kid, I don't really like to smile. Maybe at that moment, I still had not realized the importance of a smile. I just thought it as a simple matter. But now I have realized, it is really a great thing to have someone to smile at us or we smile at people. Besides than it will make people feel better and happy, it will also help us to present more positive image to others and calms people. Smile is just important for countless reasons.
