RIP Lenovo :(

The sad, unexpected thing about your electronic device is that it won't tell you when it's gonna go kaput like mine right now.

Last year it was Blackey, and now my tab. Just, gurrrrrl why? What did I do wrong?

Look, it's been restarting itself over and over again since 5 am and I couldn't even turn it off. It just won't respond at all. Kerr nak kena baling kat dinding?

Nevermind, I’ll just wait till the battery runs out.

On a bright side, I still have baby Samsung with me (which has been abandoned since early this year, because, its screen cracked, because, well I accidentally let it slipped from my hand). Meh, shouldn't call it baby anymore, it's too old for a phone's age; five years already so you're officially a makcik Samsung hehe XD

A little info about that tab, it is so very, very cheap :) my dad bought it during a Big Bad Wolf booksale, and yes it belonged to him at first. But~ dad’s so nice so he lent it to me because makcik Samsung's battery was having a mental breakdown atm so, yeah... my dad is the best...

and I never gave it back to him XD muaaaaahhhahahahahaha [long story short - Aliaa's version].

Honestly, after all these years using that tablet, I'm getting too used to it that I don't know how to use smaller phone anymore. *eww whadda you talkin’ about??? I mean, I really find it difficult to press their smaller keypads and to even hold the phones. In fact, makcik Samsung slipped off my hand because of that particular reason. So pleaseeeee, never ever let me hold your phone. You’ve been warned, guys :(

I am the worst, no lie. Dasar kuangsam tak sedar diri, dulu main snake kat phone Nokia 3310 takde slipped off from your handssssss pon 😑~ okay I get it, whatever hehe.

Omg I even took it for granted before sobssss... 😭

I know it’s cheap and... umm, durable? Idk, so I didn’t really care if I left it anywhere for a long time. Now I realize that it has eased so many tasks of mine.😭 I could use it for messaging. Made phone calls. Played Kahoot in class. Read lecture notes. And even updated my blog. Just, y’know so many things could be done with it. Blossom Blast? Ehee, that’s on my ipad, I never played games using the tab.

While everybody else was using ipad during class, I only used my tablet, depended on its capability.

In a nutshell, I love love loooooove it and hopefully it can be repaired asap. Tapi kamera dia memang tak lawa. Serius, tak lawa dia tu memang takleh bawak bincang 😆 hehe. Bye uolls.

During your farewell party,

I was not feeling sad at all.

But today is just weird.

I've never been so emotional evaluating my lecturer.

Well, just because it is Prof Hashim. 😭

I mean, I was okay at first... until Uyun whatsapped me...

asking me to calculate the cash flow and net present value for our project assignment because nobody in our group knew how.

Truthfully, I don't know how to calculate the NPV as well hehe,

there are several formula it's confusing -.- 

*ada dua jer sebenarnya kehkeh XD

Then it hit me, god... I just can't T.T

I'm gonna miss my prof so so bad.

He seeeeeriously didn't know how much he reminded me of my late grandpa.

Didn't know how much he meant to some of us.

Did he?

.

.

.

In the end, I cried doing the evaluation. Pfft 😂

How am I going to calculate all those weird things?!

*assignment nak kena submit Ahad depan and I still don't know the calculations and all my friends are relying on me soooo, I better get going byee~!

.

.

.

I know, I better see him asap XD because again, what is it that he doesn't know?

Just whatever comes to my mind :P

Alhamdulillah finally yours truly could breath properly and see the blue sky today! I seriously had no time to update anything before (and the sky didn't look blue to me, it's black with a tinge of yellow). So so hate that kind of situation. Of course, there were loads of things to do but then student mana jer tak busy kan I also think that my time management sucks these days.

Been falling asleep literally everywhere. And anytime. Even while doing discussion with my group members.

And oh why the heck CAN'T I finish things on times? 😭

Ok, so enough with the jibber jabber~ I'll write whatever comes to my mind ^^ ok? See the title?

Thanks. Hehe.

I went to Kepong Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM) last Tuesday.

As in last week.

That day, we had a little farewell party for Prof Hashim because he's retiring at the end of this month ಠ_ಠ (side story: I was quite depressed also last few days after realizing dat I'd fogotten the name of that one tree in front of my hostel. It's Filicium decipiens. It's one of the first few trees I got to know during my first year T.T)

We left UMK at 6.30 pm and arrived at the homestay at around 3 am the next day. Went to FRIM at 9 and after that at noon we just hung out at Ikea.

Buuuuuuuuut..

Well, because I think going to Ikea is too mainstream, so I went to The Curve. Yap yap, guess there's not much diff between those two. But anyways, I went to The Curve. It was so so soooooo not crowded I love it !

Found Peter Rabbit poster at Borders. And the sequel for The School for Good and Evil. *and that cute cashier hehe :P ok jk. I found no one.

And just me; being extra suwegggg wearing a cap in the mall. Ha-ha. Not suweggg uolls -.- ... ni haa masa aku solat, ada hamba Allah terduduk/tertindih shawl tu wallahua'alam sebab aku tak tengok, sudah jer solat, awning dah tak lawa sobsss T.T *kalau aku pakai jugak nanti nampak macam kita punya deputy prime minister ihiks XD



Sebab tak ramai orang kan~ >_<

Then we went back to Kelantan~ Yes... it's not just you, I feel like it's a day trip too :)

Goodbye!

P/s : I have so many things to write, but umm, maybe my mind just decided to go blank today, whatever...see you later!

Coming home

Assalamualaikum.

Look what I'd captured this morning.

Beaaaaauuuutiful view from my room :)

*actually I think it looked kind of scary but then Amar told me it was pretty so now I think it's pretty too.

So hi guys. Here comes the introduction.

I'm going home tomorrow. God, it feels so good when uni gives you a three-day holiday just for the election. Yay! Thanks UMK, love you.

Not to forget, please make your decision right, ok ! Choose wisely, they're going to be the people for the next five years. 'The people' who do what, I don't know, don't ask.

 

And the, ta dah~ this is what I've been obsessed with recently. Plant Nanny, this cute app encourages you to drink water based on your weight. Don't know why I'm being such an obedient girl that every time I water the plant (it actually has a name hehe, I name it >_<), I feel the need to drink water also. Like kalau aku siram dia, tapi aku tak minum pun air, rasa macam berdosa...

Ha camtu.

My 22-year-old brain is beyond weird. I know.

Ok guys, goodbye.

I'll go home by bus again tomorrow. Weeee!
 

You don't know how hard I tried to convince Ma so that she'll let me do everything alone.

It's only Jeli to Pasir Mas omg XD

*now I've to drag Asma with me just so I won't have to board the bus 'alone'.

Fine. Whatever puts your heart at ease, my love ^^

🐱

I remember he told me that he’s graduating in early May.

He probably has graduated by now. Hehe.

And yesss I didn’t say anything. Because I don’t know...

I mean, should I say something? ConGrads for example...

Nope.

Ok. 

But no seriously, I’m a total rubbish at this. 🙄 

Agropark Day 1 this semester

It has been so long since I last went to Agropark. Quite sad actually.

Today when I was on my way there, my Indian friend, Mohana whispered in my ear saying that she mistakenly wore her shirt inside out and wanted to get back to her room to change.

I didn't notice it but still I said, "Mona, you know what? Orang tua-tua dulu selalu cakap that if you wear your clothes like that, you're likely to receive money soon, like very, very soon. Hehe"

That was a joke. Of course.

She stared at me and beamed all of sudden.

"Ye ke Aliaa? Alhamdulillah!"

I was startled then she said:

"Ye lah, saya bersyukur. Hahaha."

God, I love that girl.

Honestly it's quite surprising to hear that coming from her mouth.
Sweet little pie, may God bless you ❤️

P/s: This isn't related, but just so you know, I love this filter.

Nampak macam muka kena panau  gitchewww. Okbyee.

of my proposal defense

My proposal defense?

Oh yeah, it was yesterday.

  

and it was crazy.

It was totally crazy!

Nobody, I repeat nooobody expected that the venue would be changed at the very last minute, ok.

And the very best thing about it was that ---> it was changed to the main hall.

Main hall of my uni. Hehe.

MAIN HALL.

Bruhhhhhh!

(a.k.a dewan yang paling susah nak dapat if you nak organize apa-apa event)

Aww, what a sweet reason to twist my heart into pretzel. Demmit.

.

.

.

So, I presented my proposal. *like a pro...y'know prosak puahaha XP

FYI, I was the first person to talk that morning, so plissss, can't expect much okee.

I stood awkwardly in the middle of the stage, held the microphone tightly and hoping that my hands would not decide to shake on its own *not that it has occurred before who knows, anything can happen at that point*

I actually brought a piece of paper with me during the presentation but I don't remember looking at it, not even once (!!!) Soooooo uncool Aliaa, you forgot to mention a few points. But, I remember stopping in the middle of my 'speech', just to take a deep, like really deep breath. What had I been babbling all the past precious minutes omg...? GOSH!

"It's okay, you've got time Aliaa" I heard Dr. Hazim said down the stage, he was the chairperson for the morning session. And then I saw Jing Xian showing me eight of her fingers. Eh, what?

Oh it means eight minutes had passed. :P

Took another deep breath and I chuckled at myself.

Okay, let's end this nowwwww!

Bla bla bla... and bla bla bla some more *the end*

During the Q and A session, I am very grateful to Allah for how calm He made me feel. Thank you ya Allah. Like, it was so calming I didn't even feel like it's over 20 minutes already (you think I had the longest Q n A sess? nope. We all felt like we had the longest (and probably the worst). We all did, seriously).

Why do you want to use Polysorbate 80 instead of 20?

How are you going to catch the flies?

What's your research gap?

Here you mentioned soybean oil, but in the lit review any oil can be chosen, what's your reason?

So you're going to apply low energy methods in the making of nanoemulsion, hmmm... now explain to me high energy methods. *ok.. wait whaaaaaat?

You're going to watch them for 24 hours? This is only fyp...

*yerp, and it's my fyp*

etc.

No, yours truly didn't die fortunately. And alhamdulillah the proposal was accepted. Yay  ^^ My friends complimented me for answering all the questions correctly plus for how... hahahaha won't mention another reason. JUST. *but wait how did they know I answered correctly? >_<

Is it perfect? Is it enough? Well, hopefully. Now, let's get ready for FYP 2, ladies and gentlemen. Brace yourself, Insha'Allah we're gonna make it.

Development of Nanoemulsion

Containing Piper betle Extract

as An Effective Natural Insecticide.

*again, what the heck was I thinking when I decided to do that topic?*

I called my mum the night before the proposal defense just to cry my heart out. Typical me. I went to the fourth floor and talked to her till I literally stopped feeling sad.

She asked... "Tak takut ke naik tingkat empat sorang-sorang? Malam-malam ni.."

Tbh, I was too overwhelmed by my nervousness (and sadness yang tetiba muncul entah dari mana) to feel scared, even though the corridors looked like they're from scene of a horror movie but who cares about that.

I was only imagining the vicious faces of my examiners that I'd have to see the next day. Huhu.

JK. They're too kind to be called vicious. Ok byeeeee XD

P/s : No, that photo wasn't taken after my presentation, that was during the evening session. I watched all of my friends' proposal defenses sebab diorang punya buat dekat bilik banquet jer bukan dewan utama why life is so unfairrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
