Another battlefield.

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone!

Ramadan Kareem! It's the 5th day of Ramadan and it's the last day before the study week of the semester. Time's really moving fast, isn't it? Well, today I had a presentation for CADDD. If my juniors read this, tolonglah ambik CADDD hahahahha the subject is so fun, provided you have interest in chemistry and some physics. Tak banyak pun part physics but you need to have the basic concept in organic chemistry as well as the medicinal chemistry. We're the first batch to take this subject, so I risau sikit la pasal finals since there's no past year questions to be referred to.

Our presentation slide ehhehehehehe
I don't know but I'm so happy to present this project because I really, really understand what I'm doing. Ada la jugak steps yang I follow the manual and only know the rationale of the steps after I asked Dr but aaaaa tak reti nak describe perasaan tu hahahahaha. Tapi I'm so grateful for my groupmates, thanks rerakan!! <3

Anyway, Rabu depan dah finals, another battlefield to be faced. (OMG tak isi lagi SFS)! I baru susun jadual study untuk finals and yeah, literally no time to play around anymore (or getting busy with other matters). Tapi time dapat jadual I am really like reallllyyyyy nervous. Paper ada yang selang sehari je. Tapi lepas susun ni I ada keyakinan sikit. Tadi time presentation ada group buat pasal depressive disorder and Dr. S ada pesan, kita manusia ni jangan terlalu bergantung pada manusia hatta diri sendiri sekalipun. Jangan lupakan Allah as our main hope. Letak pergantungan kita pada Allah, yakin and bersangka baik dengan Allah. Ustaz Ebit kata bersangka baik pada Allah ni adalah kemuncak bahagia. Jadi, mari kita improve diri kita sesama! Lately, I realised that I'm too occupied with the wordly affairs. Hence, this Ramadan I hope that I'm able to make some changes. Amin!

This Ramadan, just like last year, we are having our final exam. So, I of course ada perasaan serba salah sebab I banyak lagi tak study and of course nak kejar pahala beribadah bulan Ramadan. Ada banyak pendapat pasal ni, be it the harsh one or the gentle approach. Ada yang kata "final exam bukan alasan untuk tak beribadat, patut dah study awal kan?" Yaa yaa I got your points tapi tak semua orang ada jadual & masa yang sama like others, yang allows them to do revision religiously every night after class. Tapi keyword dia is time management. Jangan la study je tak fikir langsung pasal ibadat, tapi jangan spend almost the whole day on the praying without studying for the finals. Belajar tu satu ibadah jugak. I came across a post that said something like this:

Not all Ramadan need to be a no-responsibilty, pray all day, read Quran all night. And he state a few situations but I would like to highlight the one related to our situation: "If you're studying for your finals and have to prioritise revision over taraweeh, then that's your Ramadan. The ummah needs your qualification and expertise. We need to understand that it's not all about the quantity. Our current circumstances are different from our past, from others. But, we should always strive to improve our Ramadan." (Salah Sharief, 2015).

So, know your responsibilities, your limit and manage your time well. I know that I am in no position to tell others on how to manage time as sometimes procrastination is my middle name (ehek), but as mentioned let's always strive to improve! Not only in Ramadan but hopefully everything that should be improved, and may all of us will be istiqamah towards improving ourselves. That's all from me today. Jangan lupa doakan Athirah dan rakan-rakan Rx16 dapat jawab finals dengan lulus cemerlang. Amin!

Xx,
Rara.
