post iv, with another future dr :) Assalamualaikum, hi! This might be my 5th draft but most preferably my first post for August :D It feels great to be back, Alhamdulillah. In less than 10 days, this girl will be setting foot in her degree life - as a vet student in UPM. It still feels surreal to actually say this, let alone putting it into visible words. A huuge blessing, really. For the past four months, the thought of getting to this point never left my conscience. It was what triggered my compulsive eating and slacking and hey, insomnia - the friend that turned me into a night owl on days I felt like a mess. And then recently, I decided to firmly fix a morning routine to reset myself into being the morning person i ideally want to be. To be honest, being able to stick to a beautiful routine in the morning is a blessing on its own pedestal. Thank God, its also why I'm here right now :) Prepping  ಠ◡ಠ      Going back to May, i remember having a...

If I were to explain what inspiration is, then I'd simply go with the unpopular meaning of it- to breathe in, inhalation. Because only then , it would be easier to understand why I'd say inspiration is something we constantly need. Mhm, just like breathing! And of course, the most obvious situation that immediately comes into mind is the picture of an artist staring down at his blank white canvas, or an author looking out the window or travelling the globe in search of new ideas for his book. New experiences, new mixture of paint, new designs for the next summer fashion line, a new cheezy pick-up line, eh. But what if that's not the case. Inspiration doesn't necessarily screams "new idea!" We can also be doing the same thing over and over again, and never have enough of it because of inspiration. I'd describe it as a wave of immense calmness that suddenly washes over, rejuvenating, its to breathe in and recenter all scattered thoughts into one and ...

ha, caught red handed! boiled fish soup should make a good dentist's patient antelope looks chubby in here fuwa-fuwa minta mak, kuih sepotong..  .. ..saya mahu makan kerna perut kosong *adds to study sketches *patriotic noises look at me, reading a book upside down  alright folks, that's all there is this time.  Houris isn't feeling herself lately so she had her social medias deactivated  and lets hope it stays that way for a little longer! And while she's recuperating, I, the beloved Momel would go out of my way to  keep this blog alive with my ramblings. ps// pls help make lots of du'a for Houris! It'll mean a lot to us pps// without her socmeds, its a wonder how you still manage to be here, reading this :D

For anything you have had absolutely no say in whatsoever, then it's Allah's test for you -Mufti Menk       I've never felt the luxury of having an elder sibling. Well, I know some of my friends complain about them, being teased for trivial things, kicked in the gut for some reason i don't think i want to remember? But despite hearing all the complaints, I can't help but realize the tinges of deep regard they have for their sister/brother between the lines of their frustration. They might talk to me as if they hated them their entire life but whenever their sister/brother encounters a good turn of events or need help in masses, my friends would not hesitate to spread the joy/awareness. And these good things are usually when they're getting married, needed customers for their new business, convocations, or maybe just a simple "hari ni kakak aku cakap dia rindu akuu!" Haha. and they have no idea how that made me feel happy inside and why I woul...

alhamdulillah, 'ala kulli hal Hi! Feels good to be back :D To Muslims out there, Ramadhan Kareem! May This Ramadhan be a stepping-stone-kinda month for us to maximize our crop yield in spiritual terms, if you know what I mean. Aamiin. So, I've learnt that I really should start my journal-ing habit again, the one where I'd bring a handy notebook everywhere i go- because there's just sO much to pour out of this noggin sometimes. Thats one. Second, because i hate it when the feel of a moment dies out like, 10 minutes after it happened and all I'm left with is a neutral, non-enthuasistic Houris in front of  a blank page. Well, at least not as amused as before, but you get what i mean. Jangan bertangguh! Ya Allah, when will I ever get tired of telling myself that, no one knows. Ok, quick update. Alhamdulillah, I'm doing somewhat well now. I do cat chores twice a day and try to catch up with each one of their eccentrics , wake up at 5 to help ready ...

Write a post in 15 minutes, can I pull it off? We'll see! Assalamualaikum, hi! Believe it or not, I'm currently in the middle of my finals and tomorrow's physics and I haven't finished studying, but AH , whats new? So, the main reason I'm drawing out some time for this is because I promised myself yesterday, and also because I want this to be engraved somewhere else besides my short-term memory capsule, because (!!!) the things I heard yesterday and from who it was coming from, are two things I want to never forget in my career pursuit. Yes, a Houris can be in a pursuit. Its only logical, despite how slow I seem. I berangan faster, is all. Along with Ayuni & Afina, we attended a forum on Racism & Islamophobia which showcased a prestigious panel of cendekiawans like Prof Madya Dr Hafidzi, Dato Dr Muhammad Ali, both educators in UPM itself and not to forget, Malaysia's promising novelist, En Hilal Asyraf. Among them three, Dr Hafidzi str...

is this picture supposed to give off a 'rajin' aura? Yes. Yes it is. And I am desperate for it. Assalamualaikum, and hi!       Today's a bit different. Here I am sitting in class filled with girls minding their own business. The aroma of nasi wok prancing around the room and into my nose, setting my insides to leap with excitement and also out of mild hunger. Usually I'd do this alone, right? In the darkness of the night and a melody of qasidahs or random piano music to keep myself company. Not today. Today, I needed a push from people or else, I know I won't come around the resolve to post weekly. Alhamdulillah, a lot has happened since the last time I wrote to you, and as for why I haven't shared them are all for the excuses I can't and won't accept myself. Some of the events being, umrah! retaking MUET papers! aand tertinggal a lot of classes in the process of both! Haha, not really something to be proud of, I know. So here I am, still ...
