Dear Blog, This is my first post of 2017. It seems like my blog readers enjoy reading my personal updates ;) I checked the stats and the number of clicks for my recent post 'Updates of my Life at Uni' is double the one on 'Life Goals'. I have several resolutions but I will just share a few which I think can benefit you or give you an idea on ways to improvise yourself. I feel that this new academic year has been a new chapter for me in a sense that I have developed into a better person. I do feel that after some changes and chapters in my life, I worry less about what people think of me and I focus more on improving myself and living my life- being happy, simple and who I want to be. I used to worry a lot about what people say, this and that, I worry and tend to overthink. As long as the people closest to me are happy with me, I shall do what is best and things that I enjoy doing. This is one of my resolution, more carefree and living life to the fullest without ove

Dear all, Here is the next post requested and since New Year is approaching, I thought this would be nice. Hope all of you are doing good, in good health and happy thoughts. I am listening to some zikir now on YouTube and had a complete rest and stay-at-home day. Yesterday I left to Westfield early morning for Boxing Day shopping and enjoyed it! Got a few new things and some gifts for some very special people. It is my fourth year now studying abroad in London, I can hardly believe how long it seems and fast it feels at the same time. Alhamdulillah I am so thankful to Allah for helping me and rewarding me with this golden experience. Every big achievement comes its sacrifice. I have been working very hard for these past few years and then enjoy the remaining days I have for holidays. I have had tough days, tearful moments (being a crybaby doesn't help but crying is like therapy for me as it relieves any negative thoughts for me- I cannot see someone cry painfully as I will im

Hi guys, hope you are all doing well and that SPM went good. I am sure that exam times are not my favourite and there could be certain papers that you felt more confident than others but that's okay. Over time, I realise that yes exams are important but try to look at the bigger picture and your long term life goals. It will make you feel less daunted.  In this post I just sort of wanted to write a little informal update on what I have been up to lately at university. Honestly there has been nothing too interesting for the past two months. I have literally been spending more than 12 hours a day at the lab or library focused on my research project. It has drained me mentally and emotionally and physically. I go home, eat pray and sleep and start the day again the next day. I am very disciplined in a way I do not get easily distracted until I get my work finished or accomplish everything I set my mind to alhamdulillah. In the weekends then I would see my friends, go for social ev

THIS IS A REPOST, ORIGINAL BLOG POST WRITTEN ON AUG 27 2012 Dear all, this topic touches my heart deeply as there are so many changes in my life right now. I feel like suddenly my world  moved by 45 degrees (this is enough as I don't think its more than this) creating a relatively new environment in many ways. You will not completely understand what I mean. It feels tiring, complicated, confusing but when I look at it positively, its definitely a fresh start. Before you start reading, please turn on this song for better effects. When you are used to something in life and reached your comfort zone, its hard to believe that it can suddenly change. When you come to think of it, some people face harder situations. Always remember that. When you have been living around people you love, suddenly God decides to shake your globe a little and let new snowflakes fall. In a single week, there has been so many changes and so many people coming and going. Yes, I know that death takes

Its Wednesday, 4th day since I reached London and I was having a relaxing morning, posting photos and making calls and buying some things online. Preparing stuff before I start getting busy very soon. This song came up in my mind and I started to humm it, decided to search on youtube and I played it over and over again. Never really realised the lyrics but when I searched for it, I realised that 80% of the lyrics resonate with me. Play the song! Inspiring music :) PS: My <3 called few minutes after and he had to listen to me singing this song hehehe Have a great day.

This summer has been amazing alhamdulillah, so many sweet memories, so many new first-times and oh-we-havent-done-this-in-a-long-time.  I know that some of my blog followers have requested I blog more often. I am sorry I have not been blogging much for last two years but when I do, I try to update you with pictures and new things. And this time, I have changed the template of my blog. I wanted it to maintain its original look and colour slightly (brown and turquoise) and to add a hint of its education background (paperclips, stationery) as well as a feminine touch (flowers). And even offered a new 'Speak to Meen' service. In this post, I want to share with you some good news!  First, alhamdulillah I had a skype session with my personal tutor and achieved an overall 1st class for my third year. Very thankful to Allah for helping me and family and loved ones for their support. I treat this achievement as a positive booster for future uptakings and believe in Allah'

Before I start telling you my story, let me explain some basic terms and general things about our teeth. Most adults have 32 teeth- 8 incisors, 4 canine, 8 pre-molar and 12 molar (including 4 wisdom teeth). Incisors are the cute top and bottom teeth that babies start developing when their teeth start to grow. Canines are the sharp 'dracula' teeth at each edge of the jaw. The molars and pre's are the ones at the back which are thicker. Wisdom teeth are at the most end of our mouth and develop late, sometimes even in our 20s. Mine grew at the age of 18, 19 and 20. Full of wisdom already ;) hehe But.. no pain, no gain. Those teeth full of wisdom grew with a lot of pain for me. I got a fever everytime they grew. The left ones grew first if I am not mistaken and then the right ones. My teeth are bigger than what my mouth space can accommodate so the later wisdom teeth on the right side of my mouth had a little trouble. The top one grew at a slight angle but still upright like

Dear all, 2 weeks and 1 day ago, we celebrated my brother's birthday as he turns a decade. Exactly 10 years ago, we were all blessed with the birth of my dearest little brother. I still remember the day clearly. It was a Tuesday, I was still in school and my father and sister came to pick me up. We stopped at McD for quick lunch then we headed over to the hospital. I felt all mixed feelings and was actually a bit shy to meet him for the first time. It sounded silly but I was actually trying to make a good impression and wondered what he thought of me. I know babies cannot remember but just in case he did, I wanted him to remember me good hehe. I remember my 10th birthday, I was actually a bit emotional because my age no longer had a single digit and it made me sound older. I was never a big fan of birthdays as a kid for one single reason- did not want to age. Now I am much better with birthdays and alhamdulillah do not get easily sad and actually feel blessed to be able to cel
