Life is like one whole book. Different people with different stories to tell the world. But one thing for sure, everyone will definitely have to go through one tough phase in their lives.
24 years of my life I have to say life had hit me hard starting when I was 16 years old. Things started to shattered my life when I was in my pre-teen years. But I know during that time I was just a rebellious teen who wants attention from her parents. When I was 22, I learned that I was not the same person like when I was 18-21 y/o. 22 is a very scary number for me because starting from that age I began to hate myself to the point that I think there's no point of me being around in the world again. I started to fat-shaming myself, calling myself ugly, not worthy and also stupid. I was never a smart person in my own eyes. I tend to feel that I am always not good enough and never ever I was satisfied with any of my achievements.
This negativeness started to spread alot back when I was doing my Degree. I wasn't happy to be in West Malaysia that time because I feel like I need to compete with the people who constantly hated me from far. That was I assumed towards the people around me last time. 22 and 23 are an odd age for me. I was bitter with everyone and also the surrounding around me. Things have changed alot. I was never the same. I wasn't the same Zulaiqha back I was in Diploma who is so confident of herself and couldn't care less about people. I tried to be that cold Zulaiqha but then when I pursued my Degree in West Malaysia, I learned that there are so much in life that I really can't be selfish towards the people around me despite the fact that I know some of them really hated me in silence. What's the point of this post? Why do I call it an incitation? Can I motivate people from this writing of mine? I am trying my best to describe how I view my life based on the age I was before. being 23 was tough because you are in the process of adulting and you are haunted by the responsibilities that you need to carry after you finish your studies. Istg that it was not a pleasant year for me.
2018 is a new start for me. 24 is a fresh and good age to throw away the negativity in me. I do sometimes feel that I am not good enough but the only thing that keeps me going is that only struggles can make me stronger and God will not give you the struggle that He knows that we can't handle. I believe everything that had happened in the past few years is to teach me there so much more in life. You really need to let go the toxicity in yourself bid by bid. I know it is hard because once you fell deep down in the dark well, you'll take a longer time to climb back up. Just remember, even if the sun is down there will always be the moon to guide you through the darkness. Saving your own self is much more effective rather than waiting for someone to save you. Take your time because I know depression, anxiety, and stress won't go away just like that. Just take care of yourself. Let's take care of our own self for our own sakes.

This is a continuation of the post from my Instagram.
Time really does not wait for anyone. We as human beings can only plan for our future but then we can't really do anything about it without the consent of God. This is going to be a post regarding on my journey throughout my life as a student.
Something to ponder...
The picture above was during my first convocation. Took Diploma in Public Administration and chose a very different path for my Bachelor Degree. Three years of Diploma and add-on another three years of studying for my Bachelor Degree.
I was not a very good student back in high school. My result was meh. I scored ABCD and E for my SPM. There were 3E’s fyi 😂 and entering Diploma was the best decision for me ever. My SPM results consist of 2A's 2B's 1C 1D and 3E's. You tell me who would want a student that scores such shitty result? No famous university would accept that kind of results for their first choice. You know during that time the only thing on my mind was I want to further my studies in Swinburne(bloody expensive private university). Not to forget I was a rebellious teen who just wants to follow her peers around and go study in a private university without thinking about her parents. Yes I was dumb I know. But throughout the time of applying to every university that I can apply, I can see the struggle of my dad trying to get me into UiTM. He told me to take Public Administration and me being me ofcourse I wouldn't know what the hell was Public Administration. The only thing that I know about the Major was that I am going to get exposed to political talk and other stuff. 2012 was a really tough year for me but then I adapted myself to the Major sooner than I thought.
So throughout Diploma, I learned to love the Major but during my fourth semester I questioned myself whether or not I love this Major. I wanted to quit halfway not because my result was bad but then I don't feel the challenge from it now that I've discovered the reason why. Thank God that I didn't quit *fuh* , A big shoutout to my partner in crime Hajar, who constantly reminded me to actually hold on to myself for one more semester. The reason why I wanted to quit was that I always compare myself to the people that are close to me. Throughout my university life, I tend to get close with the smartass people I don't even know why. It's not like I am using any of them it's just happened like that. As a normal being I do compare myself with Hajar but then I don't want to be like her. You get me right? I'm still that lazy arse human being who was reluctant to study for more than an hour. Yeap that was me during Diploma. I really took my Diploma for granted last time but Alhamdulillah I was given the most moderate CGPA ever which was 3.21 out of 4.00. I am grateful for that because I know how I was back then. *serves you right*
Well during Diploma I was still in my comfort zone but for Bachelor Degree was a different story. Went to a different State(Shah Alam, Selangor), new environment and the most horrific one was the Major itself. Bachelor Degree in English for Professional Communication. If you know me well, my usage of English is not as bombastic as my other friends but God decided to change my route to this. At first, I told my parents that I don't want to further my studies because I want to wait for the second intake to take the course that I really wanted. Funny story about this, I put the course as a filler for my Bachelor Degree application. I had to choose three different Majors for my intake last time. I wanted to actually be in Mass Communication Studies or even in Tourism but yeah as I mentioned just now God decided to give this Major. Yes, I was shocked to be given this Major three years ago. I was being the douchy self-stating this stupid and ridiculous statement to myself “Who wants to study English all the time? English is easy peasy.” Yeap I know I was douchy. Istg I really want to slap myself thinking about my behavior back then. ENGLISH WAS NEVER EASY. Really, I regretted everything. During my first semester, I really can't adapt with this Major. I wanted to quit really no kidding. I was overwhelmed by the amount of assignments given to us and how they actually assess us which was very different from my Diploma environment. Being in a different environment really makes me realize that I need to change my way of thinking and handle stuff. It's either you do or die. That's my motto during my Bachelor Degree. My first semester result wasn't that great. It was my first time to acquire such numbers. I know to some people I might sound and act so dramatically. I scored 2.75 out of 4.00. Getting a result like that was not really what I had in mind since my siblings are competitive. Due to that reason, I told my dad I really wanted to quit my Degree.
You know what happened after that? God still give me His signs which He sent my uncle to talk it out to me.(This happened because of the request from my dad). I continued my journey but then after that I've managed to be familiar and adapted myself through the rest of semesters. Conflicts among peers? You don't say.. It happened alot through these 3 years. But Alhamdulillah everything went well and I ended my Bachelor Degree well too. Now I am waiting for my second convocation which will be in this upcoming October. Yeay! Oh yeah my final CGPA was 3.24... Mediocre as per usual. Not much change from my Diploma but this CGPA I know I well deserved it because I really work my ass off. From 0 knowledge about English Linguistics to actually graduated from such Major indeed my major achievement in life.
Graduated a bit latter than my other Diploma mates but it taught me the art of patience. Success doesn’t come in a fortnight I must say. Changing route especially to the one that you know you’re not really good at was really a gamble. Long story short, it’s okay to be late. Your time to shine will definitely come sooner or later. Go outside of your comfort zone. You would never know what kind of adventure that you will face. And lastly, always ponder and remember God has His own ways of showing the right route for you. Here some unicorn dandruff for you guys who read this long freaking post. “Sprinkle sprinkle unicorn dandruff!”

"I’m trapped inside of myself and I’m dead
Don’t wanna be lonely"
I feel numb. I feel as if there's nothing that I look forward to life anymore. I lost interest in most of the things I used to enjoy before. I rarely take good pictures of nature and myself now. I don't like my body and how I look now. I feel like I don't deserve to be loved by someone. I don't like socializing with people now because it is tiring and I feel like people don't appreciate me as much as I am trying hard to appreciate myself. Yes, I am thankful for everything in my life but then sometimes I feel like I just want somebody to save me from drowning in my own unresolved problems which I can't even detect it myself. But then I really don't like people reaching out to me just to talk about my problems because I really don't know what are my real problems. I really don't like when people keep on saying that you're not okay let me help you and I'll listen to you but then your actions show the opposite. Nowadays, I see the slight changes in me. I became quieter and don't really express my own sadness to my closest friends because I feel like I don't really need to share it with anyone. I know that in the end no one will truly understand what I'm going through and the solutions that they are going to give will never satisfy this anguish and angsty feelings of mine. Anyone who read this just don't ask me why and what happened cause I want people to just leave me alone for now.
Sincerely,
Lu

Hiya!
I AM SO SORRY BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE TIME TO UPDATE MY BLOG DURING MY FIRST DAY OF INTERNSHIP T.T
I have failed myself. I promise to take pictures during my first day but I don't have anyone to take pictures of me and I didn't even get to do much on my first day. I is sad. I'm so sorry. But for this post I shall do a summary about my internship experience merely for a month! So there's alot and I did alot of new things that I didn't even know how. So I managed to help my Supervisor and my executives to prepared for India Reception. So now we are currently preparing for our next two events which are upcoming Formula 1 and Japan Reception. The rest I can't share cause it's P&C. Throughout this month I've represented my department in a cooking competition and guess what... I've won! Hehe. Our department won third place. I've prepared a Sarawakian traditional dish which are Ayam Pansoh and sambal kedondong. It was worth it cause I woke up at 4am just to prepared everything! So these were the pictures during the event.
Voila! I wish I can actually participate more in this kind of competition. I really miss playing basketball though. Really wish that the staff here actually play basketball.
Moving on, yesterday I did something beyond my capability which is to lead or be a mc for a Power Up Session. So basically, this session is for the staff here to communicate and tell each other things that they can improve professionally without inseminate any hatred to practice a healthy workplace environment. To me this kind of thing is a really good practice. I've learnt organizational behavior where people tend to ignore certain person whenever they hated that person. Working ethics shouldn't be that way because we need to handle and meet alot I meant like A LOT of different kind of people with different attitude and personality. As a person we cannot help to actually acquire a bad habit while working that sometimes we don't even realize it ourself. What I've monitored yesterday it was really a good session.
For our department, we are going to have this session next Tuesday and kinda looking forward to it cause our CEO is going to join this session. Apparently our department is under the CEO's office that is why he is joining this session as well. I don't know what to feel. I feel both excited and anxious. Guess what guys? I'm updating my blog in my office cause I have nothing to do which is pretty sad. I'm looking forward to what the future holds for me especially in my education and career. I'll update soon enough with more videos okay!
Ciao!
Sincerely,
Lulu

KL is the best place for me to enjoy myself without even needing to shop or spend money on clothes. I spend money on food tbh but it's all worth my money I can assure you. To those especially my fellow Sarawakians who have never been to Semenanjung before you can read this post to guide yourself around KL. I bet it can be helpful to you. So if it's your first time in KL don't be afraid but rather go and search some random places that you can find your own serene. Well for me I like crowded places because I can find peace in them. I know it may sound absurd but that's how I roll. I have to say my trip to KL mainly because I just want to stroll around and window shopping not more or less.
Firstly, if you came all the way from Shah Alam, you can use the KTM at Padang Jawa because it is the nearest station before you're changing train from KTM to LRT. From there you have to buy ticket to KL Sentral. Wait I am too lazy for this but I can write simplify summary.
Padang Jawa (KTM) > KL Sentral (LRT) > KLCC
Okay moving on... For your information, I REALLY LOVE KLCC! You know why? Because of the free admission gallery! Actually my main objective going to KLCC for almost every month is due to the change that they always do for the gallery. So apparently it changes its theme every month so I have to keep updated every month to have my art appreciation time! That's basically how I spend my time around KL. Window shopping is no doubt is my main activity too whenever I''m in KL. Don't forget to drop by Avenue K and also Bukit Bintang cause you can see beautiful buildings around there especially Sephora's building and also Pavillion's interior. It feels like you're in another country. I look forward for new adventure because I'm going to start working at KLCC this coming 25th of July. I really look forward for my new adventure! I'll make sure to update on my first day of internship with you people!
Lotsa love, xx

This video was taken back during the second week of Ramadhan where I actually went for an interview at Petronas KLCC. Aftermath of the interview was actually the time we went to KL Tower to actually have our Berbuka Puasa and meeting up a friend of mine. Too bad I didn't receive the video while we were at KL Tower. I'll get back to it again if I get my hands on the video.
