What does the Word 'Merdeka' Means to Me?

Image
MERDEKA! MERDEKA! MERDEKA!   Today, 31st August 2018, marks the 61st Independence Day of Malaysia! Malaysia finally manage to get free from British Empire on 31st August 1957 and our first Prime Minister was Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra al-Haj. We know what is 'merdeka' but what does the word means to me besides freedom and so on?   Merdeka is generally defined as independent and freedom. It is derived from Sanskrit maharddhika which means rich, power and prosperous. In Malaysia archipelago, it simply means a freed slave.   What do I think when I first heard the word? Well, 'merdeka' is freedom, so I think the nation is free to voice out their thoughts and opinions to public eye, free to embrace any religion, free to move anywhere without getting controlled by the authorities and more. Independence create choices to be made. It's just how a person make their choice. We are free to do whatever we want without getting spied on people, shout out whatever is pl...

What Actually Transpired During the Holidays

Image
(Nope, this is not my holiday destination) (This is my real holiday 😂😂😂)   That's the harsh reality for me. Usually people will spend their holidays going trips with family but I am not that kind of person. First, I'm broke. Second, I rather be comfy and be in my own space. I think I should go back to the topic. So, what are my plans for the August holidays?   I don't really plan my holidays to be honest. Most of the time I just stay home, eat, going tuition and sleep. Saturday   I have a lot of digest on that day. Basically a lot of things happened on that day. Firstly, my brother's wedding ceremony was held at Wilayah Mosque. Everyone had to wake up at 7 AM just to get everything ready before we took some photos. We left around 9.30 AM and I was in charge of holding the chocolate. It was very hard because I love chocolate! I wanted to eat one but my brother will give me the dead look so I refrained myself from eating.   Every...

ICT-ton and Carnival 2018

Image
  Today, 11th August 2018, ICT-ton Carnival 2018 was held at SMK Damansara Jaya! Lots of people came to celebrate and I went there as well despite being a bit unwell. What happened there? Let's start.   Early in the morning. we took our attendance and numerous food trucks came to school. After the attendance were taken, we did a bit of exercise. The exercise routine was lead by a coach from a football club and seriously, I gave up since the beginning because I was too tired. Anyway, it was a bit easy so I do as much as I can without hurting myself. Not to mention, I discovered how flexible I was.   After that was over, I walked around the school to find something fun to do. Well, I didn't play games actually because on how lazy I was. I went to a food truck called #KopiBoy and bought a medium-sized iced green tea latte. I tried for the first time and I loved it. It was worth waiting because the queue was so long.   I went to the game where the scouts and mos...

Free Topic: Blue Whale and Momo Game

Image
  Did you just receive a gory message from an unknown number? Block it immediately or you will regret! The trending game, Momo game and Blue Whale targets teenagers to do violent things such as self-harm and ends with suicide. I didn't know this game existed after I heard that from a close acquaintance of mine and when I searched it, I regret instantly and the image is stuck in my head. It's haunting the hell out of me!   The sender will threaten the victims by wanting to hurt them and so on if they don't do what they are told to do. Basically, the victims are forced to do this kind of activity which is crazy and they end their lives by doing the last task: Committing suicide. Anyone can be a victim, even adults themselves could be victims of the game.   My friend told me a few weeks ago that she received several texts from a number and I was spooked. It is like my soul left my body for a short moment because I get scared easily and freaked out and this makes m...

Minggu Pusat Sumber in My School

Image
Hit you with that ddu du ddu du! Wait, this is MAMAMOO!   Hello everyone and I am back again with another interesting topic which involved something I like and probably those who have similar interests with me will get hyped up as well. My school had our annual Minggu Pusat Sumber, which is an event where the whole week the students get to learn and play games depends on what theme they had in the particular year. I like all the previous year themes which are Under the Sea, War, and Music. This year's theme really hyped me a lot because it is about Korea! So, ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages, welcome to Korea in the Internet.   The first day of the week, the theme was introduced to everyone and awesome performances was shown by students which honestly, when the other students watch it and they scream, my ears get extremely hurt. Initially I was enjoying the performance but soon my joy fades because of the other students' constant shouting. As much I like ...

Academic Day in School

  Time to wake up and go for academic day!   No! Not again!   My school organised Academic day one to twice a year and this year is my first year not going for Academic day. Well, I wanted to go but my parents are busy and I woke up late after watching Persona 5 late night. Don't judge me, it's my favourite anime video game.   So my dad knew what placing I got in class and he didn't get mad at me. He wants me to improve more in the future and everyone is quite shocked finding out that I'm the last in class because I didn't attend for one paper. This is how my reaction looks like: -_-   Back to my topic. So basically I was a bit disappointed with my results and I got several advices from my family to not give up yet. I have a passion deep inside of me. I have a clear aim that is to change myself to be a better person. I will try to work harder to change myself and improve my grades in the future. My current results make me want to do better...

Free Topic: Self-Promoting

Image
  Do you hear that? I think I heard something. Oh no! Another crime has occurred again. Gosh my head is going crazy again! Hold your horses, you don't have to worry about it. Little Miss Sherlock will solve the case, even if it means to sacrifice her life just to get to justice.   Hello everyone. I am back with another blog which is a free topic. So, I sat in front of my laptop, staring blankly at the screen, thinking of what am I supposed to write for this week. At first I wanted to write a story but I think I had wrote like two stories and I want something fresh. As I look through my phone, an idea pop up in my head. What if I promote my ongoing story? Then I can get even more readers and get opinions to improve myself! That's why today's topic is self-promoting.   Where should I start? Hm... what's the story about? What's the genre? What's the story focused on? So, the story is about a 17-year-old girl prodigy, Victoria Ko Hyun-kyung who is known as Li...

Hari Raya Celebration in School

Image
  It's Raya again! Wow I waited for a whole year just to celebrate raya with my friends and family. My school had a Hari Raya Celebration and lots of amazing things happened on that day.   First of all, we get to wear our traditional clothes! I feel so relieved that I don't have to wear my school uniform for a day. So I wore my latest baju kurung for this year's Hari Raya celebration. I never feel so comfortable wearing it! When I came to school, everyone wore their traditional clothes and all of them look stunning.   We assembled at the hall and we get to watch a short skit showing about raya celebrations. When my favourite song that my family always play in the car, Balik Kampung by Dato' Sudirman played, everyone sang the chorus part because that's the only part we remember. The spirit of Hari Raya could be seen vividly on that day.   After all that, we get to eat some food such as rendang ayam, mee, satay and more. It was so good I wanted to eat more bu...

The Changes My Country has Experienced from 9/5 till Today and Changes I Would Like to See in the Future

  Ever since the 14th General Election was over, I noticed several changes that occurred in my country. There are quite a number of changes that occurred starting from 9th of May until today that I could see with my own two eyes.   One of the most obvious change that I can see is GST which was introduced by our former Prime Minister, Dato' Seru Najib Tun Razak, has been rated from 6% to 0%. GST is still present but we don't have to pay anything for GST. Some citizens think GST is burdensome and some people thinks it is useful. We just live it as it is. What matters now most of the daily necessities are cheaper.   Besides that, most of the cabinets consist of people with different races and religions. Now, almost everyone from different races can be the leaders of the future. Before this, Malays got special treatment by the government for 60 years but now, everyone is treated equally, regardless of ethnicity and beliefs because we are Malaysians.   Besides ...

Free Topic: Rating Myself

Image
  Hello everyone! I am back with another post with the most obvious title which makes people think that I am crazy or whatsoever. I have no other ideas for free posts so I decide to do this.   How do I rate myself based on my appearance from one to 10? I rate myself 6.5 because I look so average and I don't make an effort to dress like what girls supposed to wear. I am more to a person who prefers comfort than style and that's what make me... me. I even wear my pyjamas when I went out with my family without myself realising because it was in the morning and I woke up the last.   Consider about that, I have a little sense of shame. I get embarrassed at some aspect and clothing is not really concern. It's my choice to wear whatever I want, right? What I concern about myself and keep failing to achieve is losing weight. Well, I may not look like I am an obese but I am. I tried to lose as much weight and have a healthier life but it didn't work. Moreover, I get sick ...
