it's maria elenaaaa y'all

salam.


ok ok. i just finished my DE paper. and it s*cks. it really was. BUT, i will never give up hope on miracle, sebab Allah Maha Kuasa, mungkin ada rezeki untuk TIDAK REPEAT next sem, well at least D+ will be ok. (ohh, C pleaseee!) 


so, with 2 days gap, and the next coming paper is minyak dan gas, so i blog walked around the web, and one of the must-read one is of course maria elena. don't tell me you dont know her. no no no. because she's awesome and she's famous and she's an UTPian. wuhuuuu. and she studied chemical engineering here. but she graduated ady. same batch dgn abg muneer, our head faci. (hey, i got this on the net). haha. 


and i scrolled down down and down until i met this one post and it's very very interesting. here's the permanent link : http://peliks.blogspot.com/2011/04/nasihat-nak-masuk-universiti.html




there's a lot that i would like to quote from her piece of writing because i like her points because they are also my points (which means that i strongly agree with her). ok. so many because. -_-


in case, you're lazy enough to read and analyse,

"everywhere and anywhere pun you have to be prepared. but at least, try to brush up on your social skills. why? simple. if you're not open minded, you're not willing to take criticism, you're can't share opinions or accept others, you rather just sit at the corner buat muka cute, memang takde orang nak kisah la.
being social doesn't mean you have to go to every person and ask for their facebook so you can add them up or whatever you think being social means. i meant when you're open, you can talk confidently, you can share ideas and listen to others as well, insyallah orang lain pun have confidence in you and respect you.
you respect others, others will respect you. insyallah."(Maria Elena, 2011)
"just don't be overconfident.
majooooorrrr turn off." (Maria Elena, 2011)

"Tuhan nak challenge kita to make us push ourselves. to strive harder. takkan semua nak smooth sailing right? alhamdulillah i got on by fine! i bersyukur sangat with what i have now. =) " (Maria Elena, 2011)

"ok, you have to really know the terms and conditions to getting scholarships, if you're looking for it. not just petronas's scholarship, jpa ke mara ke, whatever la. know their terms. jangan main amik je sume nak belasah tapi bila dapat course yang doesn't suit u, you tak dapat perform. rugi. (Maria Elena, 2011)

ouchh, that hurts! -_-

"rezeki memang di tangan Tuhan, tapi usaha tu datang dari diri sendiri dong.
i sedar itu, and you should too." (Maria Elena, 2011)

"rezeki comes in many ways. you lose some, you gain some. " (Maria Elena, 2011)

"oh, preparations for interviews?

practise talking in english. you all yang hate english, ha memang cari pasal la. i takleh nak tolong in that matter." (Maria Elena, 2011)

so people, there's a lot to see, eat and digest. may these few thoughts of her (and me) will ignite the thoughts of yours. we may be different in thinking, yeah i know. but this is how i see life from my lens. so if you think i'm wrong don't blame me, blame my lens. HAHA.


to maria elena, you're my senior and i'm proud because you proved that there exists a kicking blogger out there who came from this so-called deserted university. who cares? i love utp. 


okehh, last word from me, live your life vibrantly. and remember our duty and worship goes only to Allah The Almighty. 


fin. 

and for those, who are asking me why i still pursue on the hecking engineering world, though my heart and soul are not with me,
