It started when I joined the college committees. I was never being more scared than having to try out the interview of finding the executive committee members. I was persuaded by my own senior, the same senior who also helped me during my registration. I tried out for Academic Executive Committee, but it seemed like I could not get it. So I tried out for Culture and Arts Executive Committee. I was to respond carefully about how to deal with certain situations as they told me. I even had to sing. Finally, I got in.
About a week later, I finally had my first ever meeting with other executive committee members including our bosses (which were also the ones with important duties for the college). We got to introduce ourselves, knowing our roles as executive committee members and of our responsibilities. From that moment on, I tried to blend in and I felt really comfortable which eventually made me becoming more braver to speak in front of the crowd and never to conceal my imperfections (we humans make mistakes but be sure to reduce them as much as possible).

Furthermore, I became more closer to my religion. Since I went to the church here, in Tanjung Malim BEM, also known as R.G Ministry, I became in love with going to church every Sunday. The congregation 99% consists of youths, students from UPSI (also me). I even joined the missionary for students like me, which is S.M.Y which stands for Saya Murid Yesus (I am a student of Jesus). I learned a lot from that activity. I became more in love with reading the Bible and pray ever more often. I even able to make more friends and a virtual family formed among the church community, especially for my college home sale group. I became a better person than I was at the beginning of my life as a university student. Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!

I also would not forget about my studies, tasks, assignments and quizzes to focus on. Busy as I may could be, I would not put aside my main responsibility as a student of UPSI. Okay. This is it for now. I will update my blog whenever I have the time.
I don't know why but I became happy for you because you'll not longer to being the introvert one as you'd shared in your last blog post (the expressing blog or whatever, i forgot) but as I know you also shared that you became more closer to your religion (Christian ) I feel more happier for you! Remember that god will lead you to the right way. Psalms 103:8 God Bless You!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! God bless you too.
Deletehi there. I'm an Stpm student, I read your previous post regarding on the discrimination of Non-Bumis student in the education system. So may i ask, is UPSI your first choice in UPU? with the great result you obtained, i may think that you could enter any UA easily. So why UPSI and not UKM for instance?
ReplyDeleteYes it was. Actually it was the first two of my UPU list. Initially it was supposed to be education degree but I did not pass MEdSI. A lot of people wanted me to be a teacher, if not an engineer or a doctor. Still today, some thought I'm taking an education degree because of I am a student in UPSI. To answer your other question, I chose UPSI because there was a degree programme no one ever thought about even exist in UA, though it is common in private universities. The degree programme is quite new and I have high hopes of getting this degree and learn a lot of new things.
