dear future aida,

 Assalamualaikum and happy weekend peeps!!! I'm officially a 3rd-year dental student, alhamdulillah. Tomorrow (Monday) will be my veryyyy first day of clinical year. Frankly speaking, takut nak hadap clinical year sebab rasa diri sendiri belum fully competent, plus there are a lot of things to learn huarghhhh.  Past few weeks, selamat habiskan requirement year 2. Ingatkan tak akan buat semua exercises tu sebab delay kan, tapi after pro exam terus kena masuk lab straight 4 weeks untuk practical endodontics and prosthodontics. For the first time, buat exercise endodontics (rawatan akar a.k.a RCT) and very challenging sebenarnya sebab kena cramp semua exercises within 4 weeks untuk 3 anterior teeth (central, lateral incisor and canine). Sumpah penat gila untuk 4 minggu tu, malam-malam mmng pass out awal gila, and dah mula takut nanti time clinical year tak mampu nak cope dengan clinic huarghhhhhhh. Pray for me guys supaya I ada tenaga untuk bertahan! But, since kitaorg the only b...

 Hi and assalamualaikum. Happy weekend everyone! Alhamdulilah I'm officially finished my second year of dentistry. It was a memorable experience for all of us because more than half got distinction and perform very well in the exam. Soooo prouddd of youuuu guysss!!!!! But! kitaorg still lagi stuck di KOD since banyak gila kerja lab postponed during MCO. So, sekarang memang back to back 8am to 5pm dekat simulation and fabrication lab. No more cuti semester for us, no more balik kampung huarghhhhh. Personally speaking, I really enjoyed my pre-clinical years. A lot of things inspire me to be a better dental student and soon to be a dentist, to learn a lot, to practice well. Without this pre-clinical year, my knowledge would always be nothing, and I cannot even see dentistry in a clear picture. I experience 2 events that cause me to appreciate more all the knowledge that has been taught by the lecturers. And both of them happened to my loved ones. To be a dental student does not mean y...

hi and assalamualaikum everyone. still, stay at home? work at home? study at home? yeah don't worry, I'm at home toooooo. currently, IIUM is doing ERTL (Emergency Remote Teaching Learning) whatsoever. But to be honest this online teaching method has drowned me and made me feel super super super exhausted. sometimes, I wake up looking at my to-do-list, I felt like I am going to cry the whole day, trying to finish from A to Z. sometimes, I wake up and just feel not to do anything, scrolling through Instagram, Facebook, WhatApps back and forth. another day, looking at the upcoming quizzes and assignment dateline, I stuck in the room, trying to study and understand and also pretend to understand from morning till night, miss all the conversations with the family, and suddenly I am not doing well in the online quizzes. those things make me feel super super super tired and frustrated, of course! Indeed, I am not happy with the current situation. so, today, something po...

Hi and assalamualaikum. Since kita masih dalam mood RMO, so sis pun terlebih rajin nak upload blog post. Bukan apa nanti bila sis dah start wabak malas, alamatnya terdiam sepi blog ni. Cian dia ;) So, topik hari ni berkaitan dengan minimalist life, ecewah. Sebenarnya minimalist ni subjective untuk kita nak kupaskan, so i will leave it here. Cumanya just nak share, yang sis ada jugak la cuba-cuba nak praktiskan minimalist life ni. It quite works on me, since i memang jenis yang simple no fancy fancy gitu, and it helps me a lot to keep myself more organize and sane for sure! Macam mana boleh terjebak? Ini semua angkara youtube yang selalu up video video menarik dekat my explorer. So ada 3 youtubers yang I macam suka diaorang punya life style, which i try untuk praktiskan in my university life;           So basically macam mana i manage my hostel room dengan cara minimalist ni: 1. Pakaian -first, i declutter dulu semua baju, tudun...

Hi and assalamualaikum. #Stayathome #COVID19 So, how's life? Kena kurung dalam rumah, tak boleh keluar suka hati, mereput dan mampu balas pandang dengan dinding dan siling. After all, jangan lupa bersyukur sebab still boleh tengok mak ayah, kakak abang, makanan ada ja atas meja, and still tak kena tempias hujan lebat or panas terik. Sikit ja lagi. Sikit ja lagi. Bertahan, guys. Since dah 13 hari RMO, and hari ni macam lain sikit vibes dia, i decided to go social media distancing, so nak tak nak terpaksa update blog. HAHA. Nampak gila tak ikhlas kat situ. Alang-alang dah tak tahu nak buat apa, so kita rant kat sini. Tak ramai yang tahu pun kewujudan blog ni haha. Kurang sikit dosa kalau termengumpat. Ops! Actually dah lama nak tulis pasal struggle yang paling-paling besar i rasa macam batu besar hempap atas kepala atas bahu since masuk second year. Tak, sebenarnya i dah perasaan benda ni long wayyyyyyy before, which is i'm not an artistic person. Btw, buat yang maca...

Hi and assalamualaikum. Today sis terpanggil nak post pasal daily schedule dari A to Z as dental student; mainly as year 2 lah. Since it's clearly stated that every year routine harian kitaorang tak sama, so sis nak note here manalah tahu kan ke depan depan nak baca untuk anak cucu hahahaha takleh blah betui. 6.30 am - 7.30 am Everyday kelas sis start pukul 8 pagi. SETIAP HARI. so jangan nak berangan nak bangun lambat nak guling guling satu dua tiga round atas katil. Benda first sis akan buat, obviously la solat subuh 2 rakaat, pilih baju nak pergi kuliah, iron baju and kemas katil. Then, bila semua dah ready dah cantik molek baru sis akan mandi pagi. Sebab once sis mandi sis akan terus bersiap, kemas beg pakai tudung ambil kunci kereta dan gerak ke kuliah. Usually lepas park kereta, sis akan singgah kafe pakya dulu, beli kuih dua tiga biji untuk lapik perut. 8.00 am -1.00 pm Selalunya setiap hari isnin, rabu and khamis, sis akan masuk simulation l...

Hi and assalamualaikum. Salam 2020, people! Since lama gila tak update blog (busy plus tak ada mood), so this post is dedicated specially utk recap everything yang dah berlaku dalam hidup sis dua tiga empat bulan kebelakangan ni. 1. Sis masih bujang bhahahahaha Mana lah tahu kan ada orang wonder why menyepi mungkin dah ada new life, new commitment hahaha, jangan risau sis masih lagi sama mungkin kalau berubah pun kulit muka gelap sikit kot sebab banyak main panas haha. Luar dalam masih lagi aida sakinah yang dulu-dulu. Masih lagi menikmati zaman-zaman remaja gituuuu , orang putih cakap live the life to the fullest! 2. Struggle study and practical Sumpah gila naik year 2 ni cabaran dia bukan level biashe biashe, everyday ada ja benda-benda task yang perlu di settlekan. since year 2 dah start practice buat dental work dekat dummy(patung), macam macam benda kena belajar within short time, at the same time kena develop skill tangan, otak kena laju, and etc. Rasa th...

Hi and assalamualaikum. Uhuk uhuk uhuk banyaknya betul habuk kat blog ni. Maaflah sis busy tak bertempat padahal sedang membela lemak-lemak jahat haha. Alhamdulilah, dah selamat tamat first year kira-kira sebulan yang lalu (wohooooo) and now tengah bercuti rehatkan minda rehatkan jiwa dan semestinya qada' tidur sepuas-puasnya. My first professional exam memang teramat amat ekstrem macam ride roller coaster, air mata berbaldi baldi tumpah plus dengan stress study week, homesick etc. But for sure, that's the best moment ever as dental student. Sis cakap siap-siap masuk dental school memang tak boleh main-main macam sekolah dulu and you must prepare mental and physical. Serius cakap. I sat for the exam dalam 2 minggu, including 4 subject straight Isnin-Selasa-Rabu-Khamis then another OSPE on the next tuesday. By wednesday, admin released list name untuk viva, viva dentistry UIA ada dua meaning, either borderline distinction or fail/pass. Alhamdulillah, I got 4 viva ca...

hi again. and assalamualaikum. first week of Block 3! Blok paling busy dengan aktiviti luar; Scientific Evening and Tadika Visit. So excited :) hari ini serius malas gila nak bangun dari katil, end up tengah hari baru rasa macam manusia balik, and masa mandi tiber rasa macam nak recap balik apa yang aku dah buat sepanjang cuti 2 minggu [halah halah dua minggu je pun] Short Tour to Penang Sentral untuk rakyat penang yang setahun 3 kali ja baru boleh jejak negeri kelahiran, tengok penang sentral dah cukup buat aku kembang nak mengaku aku lahir kat pulau pinang hahahaha. yelah masa bangunan tu officially bukak, aku still dekat kuantan. bila dah balik penang and tuptup turun bas dekat tempat asing, terus jakun 30 saat. serius, cantik gila penang sentral, sebab location dia sangat strategik, sebelah laut, and dia connect-kan ktm, bas dengan feri sekaligus. memang level antarabangsa lah, kalah tbs. HAHA Hiking to Suling Hill ni cerita lawak. plan asal nya nak pergi C...

hi and assalamualaikum. another day another post. today nak share pasal tips study as 1st year student. I baru ja masuk uni, tak sampai setahun lagi, but i try jugak nak list down dekat sini apa yang I buat sepanjang jadi dental student. Maybe tips ni tak suit you, but I nak tulis jugak. HAHAHA sebagai mukadimah, since sekolah menengah, i TAK BOLEH stay up past 1 pagi. Kalau tak hidung akan berhingus, and baca pun dah tak masuk. So no point. Second, I tak genius or gifted, I STRUGGLE dalam semua benda especially studies. Kalau orang lain baca sekali mungkin dah ingat, but i need 3 to 4 times untuk memorize. Pity me huk huk huk. so here the tips macam mana I survive dental school untuk 2 blok pertama ni ; 1. Pre Read / Post Read antara dua benda ni, i lebih syorkan post read which is MANDATORI. Pre read ni bukan tak bagus, but for me dia akan confuse kan diri kita, sebab benda tak belajar lagi kan, then kita akan mula la assume itu dan ini, bila tak paham frust. I hate all ...

Assalamualaikum, and salam fajr. For the first time in my life, tulis post subuh-subuh gajah. Today is the first day of study week. I have 6 days left [if I not mistaken] before sitting for pre-professional exam. I rasa sangat takut, nervous at the same time mengantuk banyak sangat [please make du'a for me and my batchmates] through this weekend and hopefully can manage my schedule well sebab exam paper sederet 4 hari berturut-turut. We can't focus only for one subject, semua kena diadili elok-elok. Fyi, I have 4 papers ; Anatomy, Oral Biology, Physiology and Biochemistry. I do really hope that all my readers can selit my name in your daily du'a, because the du'a you make for others, Allah will grant for you too! Insyaallah I will state your name too in my prayers. I will share my study hacks after pre-pro exam. But now I have to focus to catch up about 120++ lecture notes, and everything must be memorized detailly. love to share more with you guys, let's...

Assalamualaikum and hi again! Today post is about Tom Yam Birthday. Who's Tom Yam in Aida's life? If you are one of my IG followers or your phone number is in my contact list, you will know who is Tom Yam.  Tom Yam is a cute name for Hanin. Hanin ialah rakan sebilik pertama di CFS PJ, also my first classmate in Semester 1, roommate for 1 year and half, partner in crime and the list goes on. To sum things up, Hanin is part of my college life definition. I do many things with her [ eat, class, outing and even go to laundry except for today hahaha]. We did many pranks for each friend, and now we are running out of ideas. So for her birthday, we agreed to do the simplest thing, which is fraught her with cats [ she hates cat badly]. Dan ternyata dia memang takut, and sangat stress bila kitaorang pasang cat sound on Youtube. Lol! Ah, forget to mention, we covered her eyes, so she kind of wondering what will happen to her. The things that I would like to highlight...

Salam jumaat peeps ;) Setelah sekian lama plan nak buat room tour (acah gilaaaaaa), akhirnya hari ini dapat jugak post! Yeay! Macam mana terdetik nak buat room tour. Masa aku di CFS dulu, memang kitaorang google, youtube and etc nak cari luas bilik masa degree. And end up cuma ada blogger yang lama-lama ja. So for the sake juniors yang nak tahu macam mana sebenarnya rupa mahallah korang nanti, boleh jemput baca. Basically, di UIA Kuantan ni ada 3 sahaja Mahallah (Kolej Kediaman), iaitu -Mahallah Ummu Kalthum [ sisters - khas untuk students Nursing, Dentistry dan Medicine ] -Mahallah Fatimah Az- Zahra [ sisters - students selain dari yang di atas ] -Mahallah Khalid al- Walid [ brothers - semua] Sis duduk di blok 11 MUK, which is boleh dikatakan majoriti penghuni blok 11 ialah Dentistry dan Nursing. Satu bilik akan diduduki oleh 4 orang sahaja. Ada 4 compartment ( A,B,C,D) and tips bilik-bilik yang bernombor 12 dan 13 adalah bilik yang besar [termasuk bilik saya HAHA...

Assalamualaikum, and hi again! Long time no see. Kebelakangan ni macam tak cukup tanah dah berjalan. Lab-tutorial-lecture-carving repeat non stop. Tambah-tambah bila dah tinggal 3 minggu ja lagi sebelum Pre-Pro Exam. Banyak lagi yang tak cover sebenarnya and takut gila sebab first exam as dental student. Nasib baik hari ni macam lenggang sikit, dapat buat laundry, kemas baju, kemas bilik and sekarang tengah blogging nak relieve stress kejap. Esok lusa dah kena drill untuk pre-pro and upcoming tutorial. Hari ini nak cakap pasal IBG, annual activity Kulliyyah of Dentistry [KOD]. Every batch kena hantar team untuk games macam bola keranjang, futsal, bola tampar, bola jaring, petanque and etc. Overall, Magnexiium dapat tempat last 6 over 6 tapi kitaorang dapat kutip 1 emas, a few silver and bronze. Memang setiap game, spirit batchmates sangat tinggi, masing-masing bersorak nak cheer up players. Boleh dikatakan kitaorang menang spirit kalau nak dibandingkan dengan senior. HAHAHAHA....

monday blues. hari pertama di blok dua. sedangkan orang lain semua sedang cuti pertengahan semester. anehkan uia? semalam, enam pagi tiba di terminal sentral kuantan. dalam mamai dan air liur penuh di tudung. lol. tujuh pagi selamat sampai di bilik. kemas bilik sorang-sorang sambil kepala teringat rumah. huarghhhhhh. hari ini- lapan setengah kelas pertama. sambung dengan kelas oral biology dua jam tanpa henti. kaki hentak hentak lantai sebab mengantuk yang amat. memang blur habis dentinogenesis kemana, perut lapar ke mana. sambung lagi dengan tca cycle- etc- oxidation phosphorylation. nasib dr azlini pandai juga tackle mood kitaorang. esok deepavali. lusa dan tulat berturut turut quiz end block 1 sedangkan kami dah selamat masuk blok 2. pelik kan? semoga terus bertabah. kata nak jadi doktor gigi berjaya. ye idok? salam cuti tak sama dengan orang lain, aidasakinah.

Happy friday people and selamat bercuti warga Magnexiium ;) Alhamdulillah, semalam selamat menjawab paper midterm EAW which marked as our final test untuk blok pertama. Sangat tak percaya, kitaorang semua survived through out life as dental student. We are looking for many adventures together in the upcoming blocks! Semalam juga, for the first time buat kerja gila : midnight movie sampai exceed 12 am [UIAKuantan curfew]. Ceritanya, memang nak sangat tengok cerita PASKAL, [sis minat badan beruniform ok] and bila tengok update dekat ig, minggu ni minggu terakhir tayangan di pawagam, so nak tak nak nak jugak tengok. Thanks God, ada jugak classmates yang nak join. End up wayang habis pukul 11. 50 malam and the whole ecm dah tutup, kitaorang sesat lagi nak cari lif turun and pintu nak keluar HAHAHAHA. dan pukul 12 am. Then naik grab sampai depan main gate, gelabah taik kucing tengok guard berdiri tengah-tengah pagar. At last, guard tu lambai ja. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Selamat 50 hinggit, an...

Hi, assalamualaikum. Sepatutnya hari ini kelas tamat jam 4 petang. 6 jam kelas Anatomy plus satu jam Oral Biology. Thanks god, Dr. Emad cancel kelas petang. Merasa jugak tidur jam 2 petang atas katil sendiri. Past few days were hectic days for me. Suddenly agreed  to the stranger to join debate competition, amek kau malang bertimpa - timpa. Cerita panjangnya KOD [Kulliyyah of Dentistry] tak ada participant untuk pertandingan debat ifest. Dengan rendah hati malu malu kucing, sent my name to PIC, and hah, sekali kena turun balik gelanggang debat after 2 years and half tinggal. Masa tu mula lah nak menyesal. Sepanjang round, kena belasah dengan teruk. HAHAHAHAHAHA, but at least, we tried. The best part was the bonding of KOD students. How we support each other, and dapat jumpa awesome teammates yang gila-gila. Nasib ada Jimmy and Zarip, and volunteer K.E, kalau tak memang lemas sorang sorang la dalam sidang debat. The best memory, mestilah tengok K.E barai debat dengan budak KA...

Hi guys! 6th week of Block 1 and 3 weeks more to return home !!! Basically, topik hari ini berkisarkan my roommate. Athirah already moved to Kulliyah of Medicine [KOM] and bid farewell to MagneXIIUM [our official batch name]. Semuanya berlaku dalam sekelip mata, without any signs and expectations, but we know that Allah knows the best. Cerita dia macam ini, Hari Sabtu yang biasa biasa. Kami sebilik sepakat nak buat study group sebab lecture minggu tersebut barai. Almost everything masuk telinga kiri keluar telinga kanan. Dengan seminar room still tak ada air cond, kelas dari awal dhuha sampai masuk maghrib, semua orang up status stress-tak paham-mengantuk-apa aku belajar tadi? Lepas study group, kitaorang chill chill atas karpet gebu gebas. Tetiba, athirah cakap macam ini "Weiyh korang, athirah ada satu benda nak bagitahu. Korang mesti tak percaya." The rest is history. Untuk sum up the story, perjalanan Athirah nak masuk KOM dipermudahkan [she doesn'...

Hi, assalamualaikum and salam maghrib. Recently, i decided to make a journal about my life being a dental student. It might be little bit late from the exact timeline, but never mind, i will write everything that have happened. It is because two simple reasons : 1. I hope that this journal will help other people, specifically the one who wants to become a dentist. You will get some rough idea what is dentistry and everything about it. 2. For my future self. I hope that if anything happen to me in the future, or I feel so hopeless, I will come to this blog, and reread again what I have been through. As a motivation and memory. I hope so.... So, to begin my journal, I would like to share about 'a few things' that differentiate you from other sciences students. Sebagai seorang warga Kulliyah of Dentistry, yang ambil subjek Anatomy dan Oral Biology, kami semua wajib ada 3 benda ini. Ibarat peneman di waktu malam, kekasih untuk yang kesepian, rujukan untuk yang cemerlang. ...

Hi guys! I’m back after one week. LOL. Terlalu banyak sangat perkara berlaku even dalam masa satu minggu. Just to let you and my future self know that being a dental student is not main main punya kerja. Think twice before you tick dentistry as your choice in the UPU. Last week, we had buddy gathering. Before that, Kulliyyah of Dentistry [KOD] is one of the most active department and also has the least number of students. So, our official student representative, DENSS akan organize thousand event just for KOD students, focusing on Year 1. *oh yeahhhh* Kembali kepada budies gathering, at that night, all the juniors kena line up then present yourself short sweet and funny depan stage depan all of your seniors. Then, we have to stand inside a circle ; like senior keliling kitaorang, then they raised flash card yang ada numbers. Juniors kena pergi ke seniors and get the permission to be part of their buddies line. Alhamdullilah, I am in group 20. The best thing was my s...
