Dear all, I hope you are all doing good. I know its almost the end of the year and exams are drawing near. As for me, a brand new academic year just started within a month ago. I know there are some unreplied comments, messages. Please bear with me and I will reply as soon as I can.  Today, my blog topic is one that most of you can relate to and that is expectations. If there is a word that I would like to eliminate from my dictionary (one that I rarely mention even) is the word 'expectation'. I feel like that word is slightly harsh or hard in a way. For example, I always think its better to phrase a sentence with " I hope that things will go well." versus " I expect things will go well." Well, I do start thinking if I hear this statement, what is the consequences then if that person's expectations are not met???" Ooooh I start to feel the tension and stress even imagining this scenario. Then I think to myself, why did I decide to write this? ...

Hi guys :) Hope everyone is doing great and I know I literally haven't wrote for months and probably the last long post was 4 months ago. Since then, I had my final exam for second year, then a very interesting geochemistry lab course, a research project still ongoing, trips to Cambridge and Brighton then Ramadan back home in Malaysia, then the start of my internship, then Raya and back to internship and now today. That sentence summed up my activities for the past couple of months.  This year 2015 I feel so much more mature than my previous years, I feel more adult than I usually have haha, well those teenager days do drop by once in awhile.  Oh dear, as I am writing this now I realise how much I enjoy writing and talking on my blog and how much I have missed it.  Although I have been busy, I think some of you may want to know that I recently received my Year 2 results and alhamdulillah overall 1st class :')  It is not easy getting a first class in my un...

Geology is so interesting! From the planets and the Sun and the Aurora to gemstones and now I'm researching into the deep sea.  SubhanAllah so many endless spectular creations :)

Dear Readers,  I am very happy to write tonight, I know its been months and I've been through a lot of adventure. I believe you deserve to know what I've been up to since I last blogged. Well in mid March I went for my fieldtrip to Pyrenees it was like the Urra trip I had last year but much better :) Then as soon as I returned to London, my mum, brother and sister arrived here for a holiday. I was very delighted and super duper happy with their presence, I always miss them so very much. We spent two weeks going around London, having my mum's cookings again, we went for a short trip to Paris, Cotsworld, Oxford and Stratford. We went for a tour in Wembley Stadium, to Chessington Park, to Olympic Park, Hyde Park, and many more exciting places. It was such a beautiful dream for me and also a good break from studying. As soon as they left to Malaysia, I began studying for my final exam at the end of April which ended last Friday. I was really sad at first. Whenever I saw anyth...

My yoga instructor said something today that really made me think. He was trying to tell us to keep our heads and eye up on the ceiling while doing a difficult binding pose. And then he said " Don't look down or else you will fall down". While continuing my yoga session, I was thinking to myself about that statement. It actually means a lot more than we think. Its sort of like a life message. Firstly, it tells us not to look down on ourselves or else people will look down on us too and we will shake our self-confidence by always criticising or belittling things that we do. SO never ever look down on yourself too much. I say too much here because next comes the second meaning of the phrase. Do not look down on people because if you do, people will dislike you over time and you will lose all the means of happiness, being loved and living life peacefully. Some people tend to find reasons to look down on others and it can be due to very simple reasons. Its unbelievable ...

Dear Readers, Whether you are a student or working or even simply searching for an inspiration in life, spare 15 minutes of your time to listen to this speech till the end. The story of someone with great motivation to succeed and proves to you if someone homeless could achieve amazing success, so could you. Hope you are all doing good, best wishes from me and have a productive and wonderful week :):):)

That answer should be YES ! :) My post today will be mainly about motivating yourself. No matter how motivated a person seems to be, how happy or positive she/ he is, there will be down times where they feel like in a pit or like getting away from all the difficult challenges and reality of the world. They feel like living life the way they like to be, away from all negativity and forgetting about any problems temporarily. The quickest way to get there for me is by reading a storybook. Yup, it takes me to another world and I just become completely immersed for a moment and imagine that I am the main character.  Sometimes when I am feeling really down, what I'll do is pray to God and and talk to Him. Then I will speak to those very close to me because I am a very expressive person and just need to express my feelings to let it all out. If it is really bothering I will write it down or find a solution. But if that thing bothering me is shaking my confidence as well, then I will r...
