Dental School 2/10 ✔️

Assalamualaikum beautiful souls.

First of all, I would humbly enough to thank Allah s.w.t for making it possible for me to finish my first year as a dental student. I swear it was a long journeyy but then it feels so short when I realized that I just successfully made it guys. With the help of Allah s.w.t, Alhamdulillah ❤ It was such an honour since our batch passed all of the core subjects for professional exams. Couldn't be grateful enough for that💕

Actually, I don't know where to start honestly. But one thing that I could conclude is, it was an emotion battle journey throughout this year. I cried a lot. Like really a lot.😂 Lagi2 waktu study week, jangan main2 okay waktu tu emosi tak stabil. I don't know how to explain because everyone are having the same struggle as a student right? Yass, but the pressure that we had to carry is just something. With tooooo MANY topics and subjects to be covered. It's like 2 years of medic subjects is compressed into 1 year. Can you imagine that? We learnt about the whole body anatomy and physiology  plus the teeth morphology. And yeah, dentists need to know what the doctors know too as the oral health is actually integrated with the general health.

Okay enough with my rant. Huhu

Despite all the hardships and difficulties, I learnt a lot here. Through good and memorable experiences. With the help of my friends, doctors, lecturers and also seniors. I swear they are all like angels somehow TT

I love to join adventures and challenging activities. Jenis yang tak boleh terperap dekat rumah lama-lama. Kena keluar dapatkan udara segar buat aktiviti lasak and all hehe :) From there, I would meet another soul who enjoy doing things that I love✨

Never I thought that I would love doing dentistry this much honestly. There are times that I feel like giving up but all of the duas are what keep pushing me forward to keep on striving on this journey.

That's all for this time, till next time 😘

Dental School 1/10✔

Alhamdulillah I just finished my Sem 1 final exam and I'm truely grateful to Allah for always being there for me, answering each of my duas and guiding me all the way through this long long journey. I swear that it was such a tough days, weeks and months. And I'm sure all my friends are also facing the same thing. Belajar apa je tak susah :')

Almost everyday I had a battle with my own feelings and emotion. Muka je nampak tenang, dalam hati mcm ribut. I'm being too focused on my study until I forgot that somehow He is the One who give us the success. We, as the believer should not stress out too much if it doesn't go our way, continue to work hard, do our best, pray & let Allah does His work.

"Call upon your Lord in humility and privately; indeed, He does not like those who cross the limits."

Al-A'raf  : ayat 55💚

Along the lecture week & study week, I watched different dramas from people around me. We are all feeling the same thing. Nervous, scared, anxious, pressured, tired, enthusiastic and hoping for the best. With too many subjects, assignments and topics to be covered, understand, and memorized, I witnessed my friends changing their characters because of stress. 

And, one thing that I grateful the most was having my housemates as my friends and we always have our each other back. Yeah ofc there was a time when we disagree and mad about something but all we need is tolerance and trust towards each other. All the solat jemaah together, short tazkeerah masa makan, reciting prayers after solat helplessly, reciting Al-quran after Maghrib or Subuh were what actually give me those inner strength and peace.

Hoping the best for Sem 2. Don't know what to feelllll. Tak kutip lagi bekas gigi yang dah hantar kat klinik2 haritu. Harap2 gigi uols tak menggelikan iols. Sis cuba untuk bertenang bila tgk kawan2 dapat gigi 'warna warni' dalam bekas tu allahu 😅😅

Thankyou for reading this entry. Pray for me! May Allah bless and ease all of our affairs. Ameen ya Rabb.

Loves, alyanajwa 💝

New chapter ✨

Hi, assalamualaikum ❤❤

There are so much issues going on for the past two weeks & I'm still trying to adapt with it.

"Always go with the choices that scare you the most, because that is the one that is going to help you grow."

...

5/9/17 : Degree started (Orientation week)

We had to go through a week of orientation at Nilai and two days orientation in KL. So basically, two times orientation. Kencangz tak kencangz. 

Orientation week at Nilai feels the same like what we had during Tamhidi before. Almost 90% the same. Fuh. So, u guys boleh bayangkan lah kan how enjoyed are we masa orientasi tu 😅😅

The best thing about orientation week at Nilai is spending my time with my friends. Other part, maybe free food? Hehe food is bae❤ Even we all know that the food is included in the registration fees 😌

Orientation week at Nilai was tiring bcs we had to walk all the way from our transit hostel (KK1) to DTC Hall & listen to talks, ceramah, taklimat n etc. We also had to walk to the mosque for every prayer times. MasyaAllah, hat jalan kaki pi masjid ni takpelah, sebab berjalan kaki ke masjid kan besar pahala nya ✨ Plus, I was excited because finally USIM has its own mosque. Tenang je rasa solat kat situ sebab masjid dia luas & cantik ❤✨

9/9/17 : Moving to KL

Doing medical check-up in Nilai and we're going to Ampang KL by bus. Seniors were so kind & helpful. Diorang jaga kitorg macam adik sendiri. Siap tolong angkatkan barang2 & luggage semua sampai ke rumah masing2. 

Dekat sini, hostel kitorg dekat Glenview Villa, Cheras Baru. It is a condominium and has two blocks. Block A & B. Kitorg punya rumah kat blok B and tingkat plg bawah sekali. Rezeki sgt sebab tak payah naik turun lif selalu. Alhamdulillah ❤❤ 

Cabaran duduk kat sini ialah kena tahan nafsu nak shopping. Yelah, dah duduk tgh2 bandar, everywhere ada shopping mall. It was funn but at the same time menyesal bila tak dpt handle duit dgn cermat. 😌😌

Everyday kena ada budget, kalau tak duit keluar macam air paip. 

Our motto everyday is "JANGAN PERGI GIANT" since bawah kampus kitorg tu ada shopping mall. Fuh, bukan beshe beshe dugaan shopping tu. That eager utk hias bilik & beli brg2 utk hias rumah tu benar. Padahal bukannya ddk lama pun. Mybe setahun je pastu pindah rumah lain plk next year. 

Makan pun kena budget since rate harga makanan kat Ampang tak sama cam kat Nilai. Dulu RM 3 dah boleh dapat nasi tomato pakcik kelate. Sekarang RM 4 tu utk nasi goreng biasa je. So, kalau rajin tu kita masak lah kat rumah. Setakat ni tak pernah masak lauk lagi, dapur kat rumah tu panas sebab masak maggi je heheheheh.

...

To be honest, aku takut jugak la nak amik bidang pergigian ni. Bila dengar cerita doctor2 & abg kakak seniors semua... Tapi, rasa excited tu ada weh. Memang kena selalu doa supaya Allah tetapkan hati kita utk belajar dlm bidang ni. Dentistry ni bukan setakat menghafal je, segala jenis skills dia kena ada. Bab kena handle patient tu yg plg banyak kena bersabar bak kata seniors.

For my friends yg tak dpt sambung dentistry kat USIM, I hope that Allah SWT will ease every way for you guys ❤ Tipu la cakap tak sedih & rindu. Moga kita semua berjaya dalam bidang masing2. 

Doa yg baik2 sebab Dia Maha Mendengar. Put your highest trust in Him in every situation. That phrase is what I have been holding on since I finished my SPM exam. He is the one who holds our future thus we should not worry much & make the best of it❤

Bismillah. Let's ace this degree ✨

Kembara Dakwah Pos Chiong ✨

Bismillah.

This post gonna be super long. It's just me writing all her thoughts and unforgettable memories about her journey with her friends meeting all new people and experiencing all new stuffs ✨

***

Kembara Dakwah ✨

One of the best memories that give me hundred lessons about life. To plan is already a tough job, but to do the plan is more tougher.

Basically, this journey wasn't just about helping orang asli and giving some 'sumbangan' & all. It's more than that. We learnt so much from them and it was unexpectedly very different from our first impression about orang asli. Or maybe, MY first impression. From my observation & what ustaz had told us, they are very shy and humble. We are the one who have to approach them first.

Oh yea, I want to share my very first task in here. It was in the morning and I was assigned to find extra knive because the team who are going to cook had to use it urgently. It means that I had to communicate with the orang asli to borrow theirs. I was soo nervous bcs mana la aku reti cakap bahasa depa 😂😂 And there is no internet okay to google bagai. However, it was such a relieve bcs I had learnt a few phrases like 'apa khabar' & 'selamat pagi' so the rest conversation was only by hand signals which I guess they understand. And yehaa alhamdulillah, the woman actually can understand us & we had a short chats before the mission to get the knive is completed. ✨

FIRST TASK PUN DAH BERJELA ADUHAI..

***

Hehe, first and foremost.. I was so proud with my other teammates who work so hard on planning each of our activities at there. Our team members was small in amount but the teamworks was super awesome and we never had a fight with each other. I respect each of the members and treat them like my own families. Each of ourselves has our own role to ensure that each activities and programmes that will be handled will going on smoothly. We are all from different schools btw :

Al-Amin Bangi (my school✨)
Al-Amin Gombak
Al-Amin Kemaman
Al-Amin Sri Aman
Hidayah Johor
Hidayah Ipoh
Al-Islah Sg Petani (we slept 2 nights here before going to Pos Chiong)
Al-Irsyad Kuantan

1 Malaysia babe. Sabah Sarawak je takde :')

Al-Amin Bangi representatives ft Mlmh Norlida & Farihah at the back

I was assigned to be the media crew member with Hafizi (my schoolmate) & Farihah as my assistant (she's from Hidayah JB). Everything was super last minute as this responsibility was given to us less than a week before d-day. We had to prepare & divide the task evenly on who's going to bring the camera, laptop, charger & such stuff. And you know what, it was my FIRST experience handling quite a big responsibility.

(Siapa yang jadi JK propa tahu lah cane struggle dia nak bawak camera/laptop pergi tempat asing & make sure barang2 yg kita bawa tu selamat & boleh digunakan sampai habis program. Bawa banner, ambil gambar setiap aktiviti, charge camera & laptop bila generator hidup, siapkan video on time, buat buletin. Fuh.)

The struggle was real. But of course, it's worth the experience. ✨

***

Basically, apa yang kitorang buat kat sana is banyak luangkan masa dengan kanak2 n makcik2 kat sana. Mereka, sangatttttlah pemalu.

'Tak kenal maka tak cinta'

So, our first approach is cuba tarik minat kanak2 kat sana dengan gula2. Kalau ikut loghat kawan2 utaqa ; cokelat. "Adik nak cokelat? jom ikut kakak main kat padang sama2 nanti akak bagi cokelat" :) bila aku dengar diorg kata cokelat tapi pegang gula2, i was like ''tu gula2'' ''knp cokelat...''
Sampailah hari kedua terakhir aku kat sana baru lah aku faham..

((Hang nak cerita pasal cokelat ke apa nii))

After a few taaruf with the kids and a few makcik there, it was easier for us to communicate and invite them whenever we handle a programme and activity involving them. (Taaruf = get to know each other).

Basically, it just need our extra effort to start the conversation first and make them thiqah with us. (Thiqah = trust)

Some of the programmes are Family Day, Movie Time, Fashion Show, Kem Smart Solat, friendly-match football & netball, merewang, mandi sungai (guys), and such more. I can't remember all of them 😅😅

hi afah !

Weols ajar kakak2 kat sana buat ketupat. Wowerz sekali je akak ni belajar

To highlight one of the activities that I enjoyed the most was netball friendly match with the women there. At first we were quite unsure, and I was assigned to be the goal shooter (GS) pulak tu! Yang paling tak boleh nak terima is tiang gol dia tinggi yang teramat!! Diorg guna batang pokok kelapa weh!! Rasanyalah sebab memang tinggi allahu tak terkata..

lebih 3 meter kot gais

We thought we were going to win at first because I managed to shoot a goal!! Unluckily, orang asli team won the match 🔥 but we really enjoyed the game and felt motivated to do better next time ✨✨

***

Farihah & I spent a lot of time together since we were both in media crew team. She do help me a lot and we basically enjoy every moments there. The most unforgettable moments is bila enti sanggup pakai tudung ana yang ana dah pakai beberapa hari kat sana 😂 dengan alasan dia nak basuh tudung dia sbb dah busuk, habis tu tudung ana ni wangi sangat kee😂😂 ya Allah terharu okay :'))

Tu belum cerita masa kat atas houseboat lagi, I don't know macam mana kita boleh berani duduk betul2 kat tepi houseboat dlm malam yg gelap gelita tu. Borak2 pasal life masing2. Boleh je kalau ada buaya yang lompat & attack kita memalam tu, huhu pengalaman sungguh 😅 The night breeze was no joke 💓 and it felt like pergantungan kau dengan Allah masa tu memang tinggi habis lah.

And it would not be complete without my lovely schoolmate Kak Hanis, Kak Ada, Raudhah, Anis and Piji the only guy from Al-Amin Bangi who had sacrificed a lot. You guys are the best! Missing those memories of selling pancake, sandwiches and breakfast at school to ensure that our financial target was enough & such more. Since Piji is the only guy & no mlm/mlmh following us to Sg Petani, dia lah yg terpaksa jaga kitorg yang macam kanak2 lagi2 ni naik bas from Bangi to Sg Petani. (Waktu ni, I didn't follow their trip bcs my parents want to send me all along to Sg Petani). And yeah, after Kembara Dakwah, he once again jaga kitorg balik naik bas from Sg Petani to Bangi. Thanks a lottttt gaisssssss.

There's a lot more to share but if you want to know more, you can just buy our travelog lkd7 book. Hehe.

***

I felt grateful because this chance is once in a lifetime I guess. Ramai kawan2 yang lain tengah busy kerja, ada yg tengah belajar driving, ada yg tgh melancong😭, and plg ramai tgh enjoy la masa cuti after SPM tu. Wuish heaven kot cuti lamaa. Macam2 boleh buat. Tapi tulah bila lama sangat, tak sabar nak masuk belajar. Pastu bila tgh belajar, tak sabar nak cuti.

Whatever it is, I do believe that 'Setiap pengalaman mematangkan kita'. 

Without experiences, we would not know our limits and how to improvise ourself to be a better person in the future. My advice is, accept every challenges with an open heart, get support from your families & friends and seek guidance from Allah SWT.

All the best peeps 💓 my degree would start soon and I guess there's no much time for me to blog during my degree. Most of our seniors said that dentistry students are going to be busier than medic students. Anyhow, insyaAllah I'll do find some time to write!

Pray for me uolss and pls keep me in your duas ✨

Much love,

alyanajwa 💓

Interview for Degree of Dentistry in USIM

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim. MasyaAllah berhabuk teruks blog ni.

So this time, I would like to share my experience preparing for my interview on the past 1st June  :') Before that, I want to explain a little bit about the 'kronologi' for those who want to further their studies in dentistry/medic/archi after tamhidi. Since ramai org tanya kenapa nak kena interview, buat ujian darah semua utk masuk degree. 

"Bukan sepatutnya dah confirm ke dapat tempat nanti kat usim?"

Okay, disebabkan students tamhidi dentistry ada dlm 79 org. Utk degree nnti, they only want around 35 students jee,,,, that's why we have to undergo all these process to determine whether we are truly qualified or not. Yes, saingan teruks. Mentally bullied weh 😭 The pressure was no joke.

.

.

Lepas dapat result tamhidi, baru tahu kita layak ke tak utk pergi interview. Utk interview tu, kena buat ujian darah. Utk check penyakit HIV, hepatitis A, B, C. And, mmg korg kena prepare duit bebanyak sikit before pergi buat ujian tu. Sumpah. Mahal. 😅😅

Record paling murah is below RM 110 and plg mahal RM 390+. *telanairliuqsikit* huhu camtu je duit melayang 💸

Pastu, prepare ur resume and sijil2 kejayaan uols. Waktu ni je la nak show off. And pls, mmg kena prepare benda ni dari awal, sebab kalau last minute mesti ada je benda yg mungkin korg akan ter'miss'. Like, sijil spm tak ambil lagi kat sekolah, sijil ni, sijil tu and the list goes on..

Do not procastinate okay? 😊

Before the iv, banyakkan baca pasal course yg korg nak ambil tu. Tgk la subject apa yg uols akan belajar and do some research regarding current issues related with ur course.

(D-day - 1st June 2017)

Tunggu giliran ikut birthdate masing2. I was the fifth last kott. Memang harap sgt dpt giliran awal sbb mood pagi2 tu happy. But then, almost 2 hours menunggu. Kacau mood. Tapi still boleh gelak2 sebab nak hilangkan nervous yg tiada penghujungnya.

.

.

First task: we are given plasticine n dentist pye tools. So it's up to us nak buat model apa2 pun. Most of us buat model gigi.

Lepas tu, baru masuk bilik iv. Ada 3 org interviewers. Lepas diorg tanya nama kita, we have like 2 minutes to sketch/draw something on a paper. Haritu kitorg lukis mug. And there is no eraser! I repeat no eraser was given.

After that, the iv started and these are the questions that I got.

Q1 : Okay alya najwa, can u tell me about yourself?

Q2: Why dentistry in USIM?

Q3: What is your talent?

Q4: Wow, so you are into multimedia thingy, so usually you edit vids sume guna apa?

Q5: Do you play sports? Then, is there any achievement.

Time ni, I forgot what is 'peringkat daerah' in english. Lama gile fikir and at last, mmg cakap je daerah in malay. 😷

Q6: Do you have any experience in leadership?

*kringggg*

And I was like nasib baik aq tak melatah ya tuhann. Sekejap je rasa. Tapi part tergagap tu ofc la ada. Dah berkurun cuti duduk rumah tetiba kena speaking.

Above all, I was grateful enough and I hope that my fate in Dentistry USIM will be real this time. I put my 💯 trust in Allah as I believe He knows the best for me.

InsyaAllah that's all for this time. It's quite a long entry than I had imagine 😅 Do pray for me and my friends 💖 I would appreciate that sm 💖💖

Ayah's smile that cheers me up at the time that I need the most.

Thankyou for reading :) Do share your experience too okay! Assalamualaikum❤

post-LKD

Cara nak lepaskan rindu;

"Hanna (one of admin ig traveloglkd7), ana nak post satu malam ni boleh?"

"Sila silaaaa"

So, that is it. I post one that night.

I guess every one us (lkd7's) are feeling the same thing.

Hahahah rasa nak tergelak pun ada. Tak sangka akan angau macam ni lepas join program lkd.
Dah jadi macam akh syafiq la pulak.

But seriously, we cant deny ourselves.

Whatsapp sampai beribu2 setiap hari. Tapi, aku still baca n join chat sama2 dalam tu. Rasa macam dah kawan rapat sampai 5, 6 tahun pun ada. Padahal program tak sampai sebulan pun. Cukup 25 hari je.

Masa kat sana, first impression aku ialah mereka sangat HEBAT. Yes, aku rindu dengan semangat mereka, aku rindu dengan persoalan2 matang mereka, aku rindu dengan tazkirah2 yang sangat awesome and menusuk kalbu itu, aku rindu untuk masak bersama2, aku rindu dengan gurauan-gurauan mereka, aku rindu dengan ketepatan masa mereka. Aku rindu dengan suara lunak mereka apabila membaca ayat2 Allah. Aku rindu semua itu.

Selalunya, apabila waktu petang, ikhwah(lelaki) lah yang paling semangat sekali memanggil semua orang untuk sama2 baca ma'thurat. Entah kenapa itu yang paling aku ingat. Aku pun tak tahu. Kalau masuk waktu solat pun sama. And bila time masak, masakan group ikhwah memang akan lagi sedap daripada masakan akhawat. Sumpah tak tipu ! Apa rahsia diorang pun aku tak tahu :') *pasrah*

Dan apabila selesai sahaja setiap slot, aku paling tertunggu soalan2 mereka yg sangat matang untuk diajukan kepada muwajjih2(penceramah) yang datang. Meskipun aku juga mempunyai soalan aku tersendiri, aku hanya mendiamkan diri dan hanya tersenyum apabila salah satu daripada soalan yang diajukan sama juga rupanya seperti aku.

                                                .
                                                .
                                                .

One of the best thing masa LKD ni is masa kat bandung. Excited dia memang takyah cite ah. Sebab memang rasa nak keluar sangat2 daripada kem raudah which is tempat pertama program lkd ni dijalankan. Rasa terperap sangat mula2 tu, tambah dengan homesick lagi. Bukan budak asrama la katakan.... huhu. Plus, dapat naik flight dengan kawan2 from semua negeri dalam Malaysia kott walaweeey :') *bolehnampakeksaiteddia* lol. Then, masa kat airport, tiba2 ada sorang abang pramugara ni tegur;

"Nak pergi mana dik ramai2 ni?"

''Kitorang nak pergi Bandung, ada camping."

"Semua ni satu sekolah ke?''

''Oh tak, ni semua campur sekolah2 dari semua negeri :))" *senyumawkward*

''Wahh, beruntungyaa. Okay, have fun!"

"Okay, terima kasih!"

Mana taknya orang tak tanya, masuk2 airport je dah block semua laluan orang hahaha..

                                        *********

                     ((penginapan pertama; Villa))

           ((penginapan kedua; Rumah 'kemkraf''))
                                                   

''Dialah Yang menjadikan bumi itu mudah bagi kamu, maka berjalanlah di segala penjurunya dan makanlah sebahagian dari rezeki-Nya. Dan hanya kepada-Nya-lah kamu (kembali setelah) dibangkitkan.'' 

-almulk, ayat 15

                                               .
                                               .
                     
Memang nak cakap kat sini yang aktiviti utama kitorang kat sini ialah berJALAN. Dengan kaki la yang pasti :') Memang penat. Penat yang tak terkata. Tapi disebabkan semua orang qowiy2 belaka. Aku pun dapat tempias kekuatan mereka. Hebat bukan? Fuhh.

Okay.... Kalau nak suruh cerita pengalaman memang berjilid2 pun tak habis.

Kekuatan yang aku dapat semestinya daripada Allah Ta'ala tapi disalurkan melalui sahabat2 yang lain terutamanya, dan tidak dilupakan juga kakak2 serta abang2 fasi yang sentiasa memberi semangat dalam segala bentuk cara. Sungguh. Semangat itulah yang aku sangat kagumi dan membuatkan aku ingin mengikuti langkah itu. Walaupun aku tahu aku tidaklah sehebat mereka dan mempunyai 1001 kekurangan, kata2 'aslih nafsak wadú ghairak' oleh akh syafiq sedikit sebanyak menenangkan hati ini.

Jika semua para da'íe menggunakan alasan untuk tidak berdakwah kerana diri mereka masih belum perfect, sudah tentu tak wujudlah para da'ie dekat bumi ni. Jadi, gaiss, dan duhai diri ini, kuatkan semangat! Jalan dakwah ni masih panjang! Wawa dah pilih jalan ni, jalan yang dahulu kalanya dibawa oleh para nabi. Oleh itu, ternyata ia tidaklah semudah a b c. Ianya amatlah sukar dan panjaaaang.

Moga hati ini terus tsabat dan kuat.

***********

Oh Allah give us strength mentally and physically to go through this journey and may the ukhuwah and bonds between us will never break down.
