let courage be your keenest weapon

It's done. Finally. I have completed my first semester in uni. I'm absolutely relieved now that it's over, having sat for my first finals as well. I wonder what my first GPA will be but whatever, it's done. I can be a student with a GPA now and don't have to worry about trying too hard to set a good GPA for myself. Honestly though in the first sem I felt that I've learnt more from what God had decreed for me rather than what I was supposed to learn academics wise. 

In my last post, I wrote about how my first half of the sem went, up to recess week. Ah, things seem as though they were doing great and I was owning uni or sth lol. Sad to say, it reached a turning point and things went downhill from there. Those days were hard for me to pull through but I had no other choice than to be patient. I kind of saw it coming. As in I thought I had it all up to recess week and I was sure that this was all too good to be true. It sure was. What could I do besides turning to Him, for it was all written by Him and only He could help me out of it. I finally understood what this ayat from the Quran means.

إِن يَنصُرْكُمُ اللَّهُ فَلَا غَالِبَ لَكُمْ وَإِن يَخْذُلْكُمْ فَمَن ذَا الَّذِي يَنصُرُكُم مِّن بَعْدِهِ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُون

"If Allah helps you, none can overcome you, and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (alone) let the believers put their trust" (Quran, Al Imran :160)


Nonetheless, I made great memories too in the second half of the sem. Thank you Beztarians. Thanks Van & Fatris. All in all, I'm proud of myself for being courageous in this sem.

Without courage, I wouldn't have been in pageant.
Without courage, I wouldn't have been part of Beztari.
Without courage, I wouldn't have gotten to know you.

Always thought that it's only my first sem and I should totally avoid getting close to a girl but I just felt that I should and did it anyway. It takes a special person for me to break rules I've set for myself. I guess I'll keep to myself a lot more in the next sem to come (as if I am not doing it EXCESSIVELY). It's going to be tough when I'm at NIE or Hive from now on. 


Take your time. I'm glad that you will spend this winter break focusing on working on yourself in many aspects. For this  to happen in my first sem, it can only mean that rest assured, the remaining sems onwards will not have a repeat of this in sya Allah. Most importantly, you will still be in my prayers. Till then, looking forward to what is to come on my winter break and hope that anyone out there who is facing hardships will be blessed with the strength to carry on fighting. Peace be upon you

The important thing in life is to keep moving forward because you will eventually get there and see the fruits of all your struggles

blessed to have witnessed this amazing sunset from my study spot in NIE Library on the last day of studying. I wouldn't have known about this library if not for you alhamdulillah (pahala for you every time I come here to study yay)

Amazing how one of them tergerak hati to get me to speak up and that's how I built my trust and rapport with them. Till next sem's production which I dread the countless and long rehearsals but I guess the end product of it will make me thankful for being part of it I hope.
