Capillaries in my fingertips are starting to constrict more andmore, experiencing vasoconstriction in a cool-and-cold air conditioner of this lecture hall. 3 hours and 30 minutes of class is not a joke. It was even scheduled as if it had already fixed in the timetable. And it is! Since that we have no class from the first and second week of lecture, I think that the whole class must be already forgotten about the ‘reward to redeem’ of the no-class scenes. It is a ‘heaven’ for us, spending 3 hours and 30 minutes in the morning of the weekend for Anatomy class. It was not a bad day after all. I even have a great smile for that morning. For everyone. But the absolute wrong-printed notes had given me a quite terrible mood swing – they had turned me OFF to be creepy and silent. Plus with the topic we had learnt in the class: ReproductiveSystem - this was not a great reason to keep me in stress. Well, just a bit shy. But I tried hard. And heartless. There was a thing that didn’t bother me even once.I wasn’t looking at my watch, asking time to move faster. Indeed, it was an amazing achievement for me to stay awake for such a long class hours like that.Thanks to the wrong-printed notes, again. Even if it had left me a big scar in my heart, but it did to help me at least, to stay focus. Good job,notes ^^

Even if the class was only taken about almost 4 hours, it wasn’t the end of my miserable day. (Sorry. I didn’t mean to make it sound so bad) Maybe because I was born with a weakness of not knowing how to say ‘No!’ to any invitation or request. Maybe. A friend had called me saying that she needs to go to the town yet she had nobody to be her company. And nobody to drive the car as well. What would you say? Some of you might think of saying no for some reasons or excuses. I failed to do so. Never mind. I was thinking of helping those in need will be worth for me next time. ^^ But this is not the whole point. We came back late – supposed that we reached to the campus by 10 but we’d stuck in the midst of congestion – and we reached about an hour after that. Actually, we spent the whole day at the town, not knowing that time will run so fast. Pathetic! That night was so tiring that tomorrow we (me and my friends) gonna have K.I.D / Kuliyyah Interaction Day –or in a school term we used to say Sports Day aka Hari Sukan! Intended to escape at first because it had spoilt my whole weekend, but eventually fail for threats! (Must have excuse letter if you wish to escape from it) LOL. I am an obedient student, though. Finally, the day started with a gloomy weather. It was drizzling as if it knew that I was not really happy with all this things either. Just when we reached the stadium the feeling was totally different. It wasn’t my first time to see our new stadium yet I just couldn’t hide the feeling of astonishment. More to tell you about KID but it was totally like a sports day. So, let’s stop it here.

Yesterday was so fun. Attending a forum on U-Turn To Allah. This topic has gained so much attention nowadays when we see many celebrities like singers, actor or actress; even musician has made their changes to be more religious with regards to their appearances and insyaAllah, deep into the heart. It was so crowd that there were no empty seats while many people kept coming until the aisles of the staircases were also full! Subhanallah! That was my very first time to see such crowd here in IIUM. And why there were so many people? I was thinking if the speakers of the forum were among those we really know –Catriona Norhayati Ross and also Ust. Riduan. And of course, who does not even know of Catriona Ross, the famous actress who did have made a big u-turn. To hear her truth stories on how she had actually made her decision to leave her lifestyle before was actually a heart-melting story. It was not a drama when every one of us in the auditorium saw she crying. Even the moderator was little bit nervous to see that he finally asked if she was okay to cry without having any tissues there (LOL!). The funny reason he did asked that questions was because he saw Catriona was only wiped her tears with her hands. Another funny part was when Catriona explained that she was fine using her hands as she had been trained to do so while acting or shooting for dramas or movies. She was so 'sempoi' which I thought she could have made a new fan club after this ^^ Well, the forum was actually so full of laughter and tears and morals, too. (InsyaAllah I will explain more on the input gained in this forum later in my next post)

A bit nervous. I had planned to undergo a blooddonation, again, after failed to do so for two years since in PJ. Just because my Hemoglobin (Hb) levels are not passing the scale (the normal Hb level is 12.5) of course, I wasn’t allowed to donate blood. How can I donate blood to someone if it is not enough for me, right? Then I keep praying and said, if my Hb is in low level and I can’t donate blood then you have to accept all this. I still remember the first time I was rejected to donate the blood. It was totally despair for me and the whole day had gone bad. It was only a donation yet it had affected me so strong. Two years were too long for me. And I have been waiting for this moment so much. If you guys had never donated blood, you have to undergo a blood and Hb test. Blood test is to see what type of blood do you have – A, B, O or AB while Hb test is to check whether your Hb level is passing the scale of donating blood. If your Hb is under 12.5 then you are not allowed to do donation as this will harm yourself in the future. You might be lacking of Hb and the effects will be obviously shown like experience fatigue, pale faces or sometimes fainted. In my case, Alhamdulillah, my Hb is 13.3 – which I am passing to be a donor.

Previously, I was donating for 350mL of blood but this time the doctor was asking me to donate 450mL. It was a nerve-wracking but I did try. And again, alhamdulillah, I did not experiencing nausea ordizziness.

What am I trying to stress here is all about prediction and fate. Those stories ended with unexpected condition either it was a happy or sad ending. And that’s life and what it takes for. We might gain or lose something – it’s a test. To see on how we will manage to counter every single thing is what Allah will assess on us. Be a grateful servant. Even if you had struck with the biggest disaster ever, be patient and have faith on Him because Allah will always be with those who are patient. InsyaAllah, let’s try to be towards a better Muslim ^^
