i thought of....

i have lots of thoughts, yes i do. i thought of whether if i took this degree in malaysia it would be easier. but would it? honestly i have gained a lot of experience here. its not always you can go out at midnight and study at a cafe and feel safe. but korea did that. i mean, korea allowed that. i'm so thankful for everything. im not really as religious or good like i had been before but everyday i pray for specific things. and i dont know why but,, i can finally see how God is answering my prayers. and that being also at the right timing. i got the news when i was calm, not in my bad state (when i felt depressed, which is usually when i'm lonely) and it didn't hurt as worse as i thought it would. i think its also because i think my saved-up tears have already been used up in the past so i'm good now. idk if i said this before but yes of course im sad and of course i cried because i should but i dont know... entahlah i really don't know anymore.

Post SPM 3 - Scholarships And Loans

Image
Salam Alaykum, I have been writing a few posts, but didn't get the chance to actually publish it. What I did after SPM is actually a blur to be honest. 'Lepas SPM boleh tidur sepuasnya' - they say just so we struggle during SPM. Well, it's partially true. We'll get to rest a lot. For at least 2 to 8 months according to respective time we enter pre-university. But Allahu, to get to pre-u is hard. Having to wait for UPU results and apply scholarships (for those who excel) isn't something that someone would say as fun. Alhamdulillah, my SPM results were satisfying enough, allowing me to apply to a few scholarships/sponsorships and loans. The first offer I got was IPG, which was the first phase for me to become a primary school teacher. I applied for English and maths teacher as those were the subjects i was best at. IPG UKCG 2018 i went to the first stage which was UJIAN KELAYAKAN CALON GURU (UKCG), where we had to answer a f...
