SPA / MMC Registration – Malaysian Medical Graduates Straight Forward Step by Step Guide

Monday, November 11, 2019


1. Passing your final Professional Exam.

2. Right after seeing your result, go to https://putra12.spa.gov.my/spa8new/login.jsp and register on “DAFTAR MYID BARU”.

3. Just fill up empty blanks. Your course doesn’t matter about the spellings, co-curricular activities, – don’t get stuck on minor details. Whatever it is, just complete your registration up to “Pengajian Tinggi”. Click “Simpan”. You can fill it up to here only. The “Professional/Iktisas” is after you’ve completed with MMC.

Peringkat Kelulusan : SARJANA MUDA DALAM BIDANG PROFESSIONAL
Bidang : PERUBATAN
Pengkhususan : PERUBATAN DAN PEMBEDAHAN
cGPA (PNGK) : Not needed

4. The next morning of working days, go to your university and settle everything to get your Transcript done. Some institutions provide transcript after the Convocation Ceremony, so if required, apply for early release of transcript. MMC does not accept a complete result throughout your study. It needs to be the Official Transcript.

Starts with clearance form from Admin, until you get the “Completion of Study Letter from Dean” or Surat Tamat Belajar. Then about a week or two, you usually get the Transcript. It all depends.

5. Once you get the Transcript, is to go to MMC. Here’s the steps :

a) Download MMC Provisional Registration Form from here. This is latest up to 24 July 2019. Careful not to use the older one as there are some changes on the checklist. Fill up the form accordingly.


b) Prepare your documents as this :
- Proof of RM100 payment on an A4 printed copy. The payment can be done either by CDM, Online Transfer, or Debit at MMC itself. NOT POSTAL ORDER.
- 1 passport size photo to be pasted on the form, and 1 extra for the MMC staff to paste on later. Total 2 needed.
- The complete hard copy of filled up using black pen MMC form you downloaded.
- IC certified copy
- SPM certificate (the green one, not result slip with holes etc) copied & certified FRONT AND BACK.
- Completion of Study Letter from Dean certified copy
- Transcript certified copy FRONT AND BACK. Make sure you have photocopied the back of the transcript and get it certified as well. So the A4 copy of transcript is photocopied front and back, with certified signature & stamped front and back as well. I attached English and Bahasa Melayu, both.
- SPM Certificate original
- Completion of Study Letter from Dean original
- Transcript original
- Bring your original IC

In case there’s error in the way of signature, stamp, prepare ONE EMPTY COPY of the exact documents stated above. This will become handy in case there’s error in the certification methods. Then, you can get it certified from Medical Officer at KK nearby.

It was difficult to find a place to photocopy & they won’t return your documents until it has been checked, even if you noticed some flaws after comparing with your friends.

c) Be at MMC as early as 7.15 AM and start queing. The counter starts at 8 AM. During my time, our transcript was released the same weak as those going for PTM. So there were two registrations going on, hence double the number of people. Otherwise I heard that it won’t be this much, but up to you. If you want to settle by afternoon, be there by 9 AM. If you come later, you’ll either settled by evening or need to come the day after.

Once the procedures at MMC is completed, you will be given a letter of “Permohonan Pendaftaran Sementara” as Pegawai Perubatan (UD41) with “No. Keahlian”. Some batch received the letter a week later, 3 working days, it varies but I got it on the same day itself hehe.

MMC settled.

6. Go to https://putra12.spa.gov.my/spa8new/login.jsp and fill the Professional/Iktisas as “BERDAFTAR SEMENTARA DENGAN MAJLIS PERUBATAN MALAYSIA”. The “No. Keahlian” is the last digits that starts from T on the reference number of the letter of “Permohonan Pendaftaran Sementara” you received from MMC.

Floating, Lost

Sunday, September 29, 2019
"The rest of you can leave, but be mind that you are either clear passed or failed."
Photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash
Those were the first words Dr. T spoke after a thirty minutes long of waiting.

Right after finishing our three short cases, 8 of us were isolated. Our clinical marks in total will be calculated, if it doesn’t reach 15% of passing marks ; we will be called to have the fourth short case.

I was among the 7 who were not called. It’s a relief. No doubt. I am grateful. At least – I passed the clinical parts.

We left with a mind full of questions. I kept calculating if I passed, how many marks of theory marks I need, all the calculations ran briefly in my head. I’m good at maths by the way.

Something has lifted off from my back, but it felt heavy still. As though there’s a huge pincer fingers grasping me from moving, not letting me leave. I feel like I’m floating.

The thirty minutes atmosphere was in complete mixture of tight and relief. Result would be finalised two days later, go through the senate, only then to display on our computer screen in two weeks later. I’m still waiting.. Anxiously.

Final Seminar Presentation of Medical School

Tuesday, July 09, 2019

My final Seminar presentation was on the topic of “Bariatric Surgery”. It’s about the surgical treatment for people who just can’t lose weight despite every efforts done. I presented the final part, which was the recent techniques available – some are done here in Malaysia, some in the Western countries, some has been terminated for a while after multiple reports of infection.
Looking back at the past few years, my perspective of social life has changed drastically.
I started blogging since I’m about, 10. It was a pure, honest diary. I had a lot of fun expressing my thoughts into words, which I still do. Until one day I’m convinced that expressing my thought in the internet is not the same anymore.
It was a colorful five years in medical school. I’m grateful that I have chosen this path. I pray everyday for me to go further in this journey. It may not the same as writing it live, but I want to keep the lessons I gained into words, here. It will be a past tense but that’s okay.
Most of the time once we have overcome an obstacle, only then we’d know the effortless way of overcoming it.
Then we’re prepared to embark on our new journey.

Thank you, Year Two!

Monday, November 14, 2016
Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah.

I remember wishing to be here so desperately last year. I wish I'd finish second year smoothly. Though it wasn't really a smooth sail, I made it anyway. Didn't end quite well but I'm grateful I'm here.

I am not sure if I have written about the beginning of second year. It was one of the worst few things that ever happened in my life. Duh, saying it as though I've lived for decades. If I were to count, I'd say it ranked in one of the Top 3 Worst Memories.

I still wonder how the hell did I survive with SRC. I'm still mad at you Mawa, for dragging me into these things yet you were not being elected! :p

Priority Over Desire

Monday, October 10, 2016

Jadual untuk Tahun Tiga telah pun bermula, iaitu tahun yang dipanggil "klinikal". Rujuk post-post sebelum ni. Menurut corak jadual, kebiasaannya kumpulan kami akan berada di kampus pada hari Isnin dan hari berikutnya kami akan mengikuti "Bed Side Teaching (BST)" di hospital-hospital tertentu. Bagi tahun ini, kami akan ke Hospital Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Klang, Hospital Sungai Buloh, Hospital Kajang, dan insya Allah Hospital Shah Alam.

I should not be writing blog at this moment, but I can't resist myself. The thoughts keep running in my head and I had to let it out or it won't stop LOL. We plan, Allah decides. The title is kinda wrong actually. I always prioritize things, I can exclude unimportant things in a blink of an eye and make time for myself. Such a self-centered girl who could care less about the world.

Writing out the words in my head give me a distinct chill. The kind of chill where you are sunbathing in your own private beach. Hell yeah, nobody would know how good it feels.

I feel like I just woke up and wondering why am I here. Who are these people? What have I been doing all this while? Hahahaha that's what you get for ignoring the surrounding too much, girl. Wake up. I can't believe this. It's a totally different world than the place I was.

And I'm grateful for this. This space has seen me growing up. Trust me, 90% of what I write is based on true story. I remember writing about the broom that I hate, so-called "pet", losing things. Oh, what a memories to treasure. Thank you for simply existing, Blogger!

I think I just hate driving and I'm making it a big deal................................... :(

Beginning of Clinical Year

Saturday, October 08, 2016
I have no idea on what to expect. While I'm writing this, until two seconds ago, I was thinking about what to expect but then this strikes me : Why should I expect it?

Sometimes things do happen as how we expect, but sometimes it doesn't. And it's beyond our effort. But then what's wrong with expecting things? Maybe I should rephrase with "preparation". I  want to get myself ready physically and mentally with the real medical school.

We've been challenged on skill of absorbing knowledge all this while and things are going to change from now till death do us apart (of my relationship with medical field). Medical isn't only about intelligent, in fact, to me, it's more on physical works. Labor works. Just like the mechanics, hairdresser, or a cleaner.

I'm anxious.

I'm aware of how society looks down on private university's medical graduates although you're a scholarship receiver. I can only pray that I will not be included in one of "those" meant by almost everyone I met. :(

Nonetheless, I believe the value of a gem won't drop just because it's been dumped. Valuable things remain precious no matter how the surrounding is. Just a little bit more, girl................ Sabar. :)

Enough with being emotional, insya Allah I will be writing more during third year, which I have said the same thing last year but I couldn't. For now, I have decided not to take part in SRC this year, so I hope I will be able to spend more time on this and archery.

Maroon Raptors Stay Together.

Sunday, August 21, 2016
For all of you obviously do not know what Maroon Raptors refers to, it's the name for our batch. It's been a tradition to call any batch by (color) + (some random creatures lol). Once the final year graduates, the color will be used for the new batch, and so on.

We have completed Professional Exam 2 last few weeks along with viva for distinction students and girigiri (= almost) students. Alhamdulillah everything went well for me. I went to penang on the day before viva for my uncle's funeral. Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rorji'uun.

It's not the boring story about exam that I'd like to share today. After years, I'm starting to feel lame to talk about it. Haha! Exams is something we live with, it's a norm, what else to talk about? If you were to describe how you eat everyday, it's be wordless by the end of the month right.

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah. All of us have passed the Professional Exam 2, yeay! No one is left behind. I pray that we're going to graduate on time with these faces too.

To reflect, I didn't feel as much of satisfaction as how feel now compared to during the first year. I guess I couldn't yet get the feeling of a medical student, of how important and big the exam is. But during the second year, maybe cause I got a lot of things on my plate, completing one of the big stuff (Pro 2) was such a big relief.

I'd like to remember two of the important lecturers in my second year life ;
Dr. Durgadas, year coordinator ; and
Dr. Bikram, my mentor.

It's true, they have just been doing their duties as a lecturer, but boy, their words mean a lot to me. Made me realize how important it is to convey your words, because that simple words you copied from Google, could be the stepping stone for another person if it's as the right time.

So I'll be on a long break until October now, Insya Allah will be proceeding to Pediatrics Department as my first Clinical subjects (I forgot the word). I'm so excited! I believe all the words saying how fun clinical years would be. A sort of practical which is a three years duration! Kau ada? :p

You better look forward to it. I'm expecting from myself to share more blog posts together with video during third year because I won't be involving in co-curricular activities as much as now. Don't disappoint yourself, girl! If you see me loafing aournd, sharing some silly stuffs on fb, I'd appreciate if you'd remind me to update. Hahahah thank you!

Sem 2 Examination, DONE!

Saturday, July 16, 2016
= another 3 weeks till Professional Exam.. :( Kinda busy with raya, so today I wanna talk about one of my favorite teacher. A lecturer to be exact, because a teacher in university is called lecturer right. He isn't the kind of loving, teach you slowly, or those cliche definition of "kind teacher". But he is there. A father kind of person. Will spend few minutes after class for us to reflect our mistakes, study tips, and literally gets mad if we made a silly mistakes. Haha

Here, I'm just gonna share few screenshots of his posts in facebook. For my personal record.

Two Innocent Lives were Sacrificed

Tuesday, May 17, 2016
 
Location : Pharmacology Lab, Level 13
Time : Circa 2.30 ~ 4.00 PM

"Effect of Analgesics in Mice Using Hot Plate Method"

Mice A : Control
Mice B : Control
Mice C : Indomethacin
Mice D : Morphine

I was assigned to do the boring but important task, for control, where I need to administer distilled water to the mice and see its' reaction when put on a hot plate (55 degree celcius) for 15 seconds. The cut off time is to avoid injury to the mice. Our main objective is regarding analgesics, which is pain, so any injury would alter the result.

Once I'm done, I left the mice back to its' cage and observed my friends who were assigned for mice administered with Morphine. We calculated the volume based on its' mass, and Dr. Ram assisted us to administer the Morphine to the mice. He did it so gently! I guess this is what it meant when people say male doctors are nicer? After getting the injection, the mice were still active and healthy. We left it to calm and will bring it out on the hot pate 30 minutes later.

The Accident

Done observing, I moved to Indomethacin group. I was startled to see two fainted mice!! They were breathing harshly and were not moving even an inch. :( My friends were kinda traumatized because the mice died in her hand. Ha. It's impossible that we've miscalculated the dosage. After calling the lecturer, we decided to reduce the dosage. The third mice fainted too. This time was too bad, immediately after the injection, its' eyes sorta circulated (?) backwards and turned black. For your information, a normal eyes of a lab mice is red. I saw it clearly.

This group is the main attention now. Girls are crying.

We proceeded to the fourth mice. It fainted as well. It looks like in pain, being tortured, rather than a sedative effect, to be honest. Our first diagnose was the analgesic was too strong, that's why we decreased the dosage. Now we know, something is wrong with the drug itself. Dr open up the cover and it smelt of something else. Alcohol is I'm not mistaken. Oh God.

The analgesic was wrongly labelled by the lab technician.

I learnt a crucial lesson today. That's why it is important for a medical student to know basic laboratory knowledge, all the spotters, blood agar etc, to avoid these accidents. In this field, a simple carelessness can lead to death. Today was four mice, a sum amount enough for me, though some were joking around just because it's a mice. Every lives counts.

What if it was a human?

Being bored : Tadabbur alam

Sunday, May 15, 2016


It's ok to be bored sometimes. To not-to have a phone or ipad with you all the time. Having nothing to do gives you space to think an observe things around you. Especially kids. They deserve to have the boring time. Let them have it. Only when they don't have an ipad to play 24/7, they will use their wits to create things to play.

With money and the brain of youths, Getting an As or English ability is a piece of cake. Don't neglect Bahasa Melayu please. They will master English anyway at some point in their life once they start schooling. Let them have a fluent (in pronunciation, grammar) second language. 

Just look at the world around us now, you can't secure much by just graduating as a doctor. That's what happen if we keep talking about worldly materials ; it's like coronary artery, there's no ending to it. Maybe now you want a Benz, BMW, or Audi. Once you have those, you'll want a Gallardo. The next thing you want is a private jet, then an island, finally a country, and then you die lol.

To sum up, let's grow up as how it is. Let sunnatullah do its job. It's normal to feel bored. It's normal to get a B sometimes. It's normal to be cheated. Nah I wrote this long time ago now I forgot how to end this. 😂 just put your phone down and look around you. Think. Talk to one another. Limit your private (anti social) time.

Sssshhh.. I need a watermark.. I know.. Shut up..

Hello Year Two Semester Two! + Video trip to Saitama, Japan

Sunday, March 20, 2016


Alhamdulillah my last post was this year. I am delighted by the amount of duty assigned from Him. Since last year, I have been paranoid to think that I'm going to end up my youth life just flipping through those textbooks. I used to be scared of listening to my inner voice because it usually come true, but recently I read an article about our instinct is something we observe unintentionally. So I guess I'm just extra ordinary? (Yeah right, haha).

Being in the second semester of the second year equals to 1.5 / 5 = 30 % of my course completion! That's quite a substantial portion. Nah, not much but who else will be ready to cheer you up anytime if not yourself, right? So, yeayyyyy cudos to me!

But, unfortunately, while I was being happy (read : busy), I lost a bit. I don't consider my college life as busy, the hectic part of my life is out of college! I blame my parents for accustomed us since children to try new things, have skills in life other than certificates, so here I am taking opportunity of everything around me. Which is good and fun, but..?

I played too much and my result dropped a bit. No mater what happen, we have to prioritize our responsibility. My responsibility is to study. The government & my parents especially, are investing on me to gain knowledge as much as possible so that I can contribute to Malaysia in the future. As someone who would never skip class, yes, the responsibility as a student is a big deal to me.

And mum has started asking if I'm alright, if I've been participating too much.. After living for 22 years, I am certain enough how accurate mum's words are. She usually say yes, so once she say something contradict, I will ponder about it. I guess it's time to stop being paranoid and reduce the pace a bit? My first step is to take a break on making videos.. Let's see how it goes!

P/S. If only I could eat a fruit that enables me to wake up the whole day without affecting my health, can a buy a dozen for trial? Hahaha

10 Days 8 Nights in Japan

Tuesday, October 06, 2015
Gonna miss the solo train trip!
The semester break from year 1 to year 2 has lasted for almost a month, and alhamdulillah I get the chance to return to my hometown after years. I never liked to tell where is my hometown but I guess it's all unfolded now.

I always wanted to go but the time wasn't right. Father won't let me go on my own, obviously. So having to match the holiday with every family members wasn't a piece of cake, it was almost impossible. 

And alhamdulillah, finally. How beautiful Allah's plan is! I gotta tell you, I'm rather stubborn, when I say no then it is no. I do wanted to go to Japan at first when I heard that the destination for this year's trip is there, ONLY IF my friends go. At first they were so excited but after awhile it diminished just like that, so I kinda forgot about it.. It doesn't excite me that much anyway, Japan isn't an amusing holiday destination to me.

Until few months back, when the participants asked for my help as some of them know I can communicate in Japanese. I had a thought of going to Japan alone. Since my close friends aren't going, I might as well just have an adventure and travel alone! I have no problems about the language anyway. I contacted my friends, assure that I had a place to stay, etc, but unsurprisingly, I got a no from my father.

Since the holiday is quite long, I thought I might use the trip as chance for me to travel without my family, so I proposed to my father about my plan to join. He didn't say anything. So I assumed it was a no. I don't really get the chance to go on my own, so, I was okay. Hahaa

One day while I was talking about writing a letter in Japanese, talked on the phone, he casually said if I wanna go, I can use his credit card to buy the ticket! I was so happy, I cheked the lowest fare available, it was All Nippon Airways. It's not a low cost company (or carrier?), so a bonus for me! I got the ticket for RM 1457, not really a deal, but averagely lower. The Halal meal was nice anyway.

But since I'm getting on different flight with my friends, I had to travel alone to the airport! It's not a "had", it's rather a "get" I think! I always wanted to know how it feels like. Hahahah. Besides that, other than 3 days of University programme, I get to travel on my own to meet old friends and see Islam in Japan!! 

I will talk about it in detail later for my own reference as well. It was such a priceless experience for me. I went to Japan but I didn't go to Tokyo tower, Sky Tree, Shinjuku, Harajuku, Odaiba, Disney parks, no. I only got on the train, and walked just to see the world and to find myself. :)

Pengalaman Pertama Menjual Tudung

Friday, September 18, 2015
In conjunction with fund raising for our trip to Japan, we had been given an opportunity to open up a booth and sell things, a program called "Medi Entrepreneur". Like you have seen in TVs, where the pathway of the ground floor is flooded with booths and you have to pass through those obstacles just to reach to your class. Exactly like that.

At first I did not assign myself to open up one of the booths because I had a plan previously. But then later we got to know that a guy was being assigned to a tudung booth! Hahaha. So I decided to lend him my hand (not literally). Surprisingly, the actual owner of the company that we receive the stocks from was a guy as well, so I thought I really need to be there. Cewah, perasan.

I didn't wanna be a runner anyway, honestly. The lecture in charge mentioned my name T.T when all I wanted to do was have fun, that is why I did not even gave my name! Hahaha sorry :P and bam! I need to check if everyone is doing their things or not, report this and that, hmm. But I did anyway.

Alhamdulillah this experience was one of the best time I spent in my life, although it lasts for only three days. I have always wanted to know how it feels like to take care a shop, to approach people, to deal with money. Previously I used to work in a kindergarten, it was so fun as well. I coached. I never had this kind of experience!

Alhamdulillah again, the response I received from the customers were overwhelming! Might be because this is my field and I'm a sweet talker. Hihihi. My hobby is convince people in something because that's what I am good at. So alhamdulillah, I even felt like I could start my own tudung business HAHAHA

By the way, I prefer to write in English but I do want to improve my Malay skill.. What should I do? Combining languages in a passage isn't pleasing.. Hmm

Friday, July 31, 2015

Alhamdulillah, I got a B. Yes. The letter I used to hate most, the single letter on my result which used to make me feel so down. And today, here I am, feeling so fantastic about it. Ha!

Despite of few cowpoops, alhamdulillah ya Allah. He loves me so much I don't even feel like I deserve this but He knows best! Frankly I thought I failed. If I can get a B that time, I'm sure with Your help I can do much better for the upcoming Professional Exam 1! :D

I'm really happy now, imagine Honey Boo Boo dancing and that's how I'm confidently happy right now. Hahahaha! Allah has been blessing me with so many thing unexpectedly. Throughout my life, He never stopped giving. I've been so bad, I don't deserve this. T.T I hope this is not the way Allah wants to test me if I will stray away from Him or not. Please, no. Bring me closer to You. T.T

At the phase of growing up, this is a very special gift to me. Means a lot thus here I am leaving it here. I know it doesn't have much content and I keep on repeating the same thing.. No I am emphasizing. Hehe. Thank you everyone. :)

Things I should have known during the first year of medical school

Friday, June 19, 2015
Pffttt hoooiii girll you haven't even done with your first year! But it's almost there, so that's acceptable right? Please say so. Haha.

1. Books. Reference books are good. Especially one of my favourite is Medical Physiology by Guyton and Hall. Find one in a librsry and I assure you are going to have a great experience of reading. But little did I know about the existence of "handbook"! 

As I was browsing through some interesting thin medical reading material, I came across the handbook version of Guyton's. I thought it was just another concluded, shortened reference books designated for last minute revision - I was wrong. 

The handbook was as good as the text book! It has enough information for a medical student explained with a simple words. It highlights important points without making it too summarised like most thin book. 

Anyway before you make fun of me by using the word thin, I'd like to emphasize that in my opinion there are only two kinds of books in medical school : thick and thin ones! Haha

2. Extra curricular activities. I wished had participated more! Besides activities held by our university, I feel like I should have pursued in new things more! For example joining a Talaqi class, engage in volunteer activities, or introduce myself to new musical instruments.

I realized that I had a lot of free time other than studies. Yes you could revise for 24 hours but sometimes you just have to admit the limit of your capabilities in forcefully injecting information and store it in your brain! Maybe I'm not one of those A student that's why I can say this.. :(

Nonetheless, now is one of the crucial phase of my life and I must live it to the fullest! I'm going to participate as much as I could, as long as it doesn't affect my responsibility as a student and a daughter. Hehe

I wonder though how can anyone has too much time to deal with nonsense things like fighting with boyfriends, skipping class to have lunch, etc. I guess we all have diffferent perspective in life, right? Like I see my study as the top priority, so anything that hinder it, I would not hesitate to leave it behind no matter how much I love it.

It's not too late yet, I still have enough time to enjoy my youths soooooo, what do I do next? Just wait because I definitely have a plan. Gotta be greedy and try them all because YOLO! Pffttt I actually used that word! Thank you friends, for understanding how busy I am.. :p

End of CNS Module

Thursday, June 11, 2015

= another one module to go before semester 2 exam = another one module to go before Professional Exam 1!

驚いたふりするなよ!知ってたくせに。笑 瞬く間にもうすぐ医学1年生を終えます。マレーシアでは1年生&2年生は Pre-Clinical といって、アカデミックな授業が中心です。私の大学では、1年生に全て「正常」な人間の組織(?)を学んで、2年生になったら病理学や、薬理学といって「病気」を中心にした勉強をするというシステムになってます。

私はもうすぐ1年生を終えるという事は、おそらく医者になるために必要な正常な人間の組織の知識を全部簡単に説明できるはず!!本当正直言って、もう足りるのか分かりません;;

CNS = Central Nervous System

Dalam modul ni, kita akan belajar mengenai saraf, tulang belakang, otak, secara ringkasnya macam mana badan kita terima isyarat dari luar dan bertindak sesuai dengan info yang diterima. CNS merupakan antara modul yang saya gemari. Ya, memang ia merupakan antara modul yang susah. Susah sebab banyak sangat perkara yang kits kena  hafal.

Susah tak bermakna kita tak suka. Senang tak bermakna kita akan suka sesuatu, kan?
Salah satu antara sebab kenapa saya menggemari modul ini adalah kerana sesi Clinical Examination (Pemeriksaan Klinikal) yang menyeronokkan! Bertambah seronok sebab ramai yang ponteng waktu ni.. Jadi doktor lebih fokus terhadap kami. Hihihi :p

There were so many clinical examination that you can perform and you could actually observe it in normal person! Of course because we're all normal.. Haha. Unlike other modules, I wasn't as curious as during CNS.

It's been a week since the last module started, which is nutritional module where we will only learn the Biochemistry. Alhamdulillah at the end of my first year, I'm starting to fascinate about Biochemistry yeayyyy. After all it wasn't that hard to memorize all the pathways of metabolism. Once we have memorized it before, insya Allah it will appear in the back of your mind smoothly hohoho

Anyway so far I am delighted, I am happy of what I am doing now. Alhamdulillah and thank you everyone for always praying for me.

My First Experience as A Facilitator

Sunday, May 10, 2015

In my university, we have a compulsory subject, Islamic Studies, and one of the requirement to complete it is the Muslim students will have to spend two days on a program called Program Mahasiswa Cemerlang (PMC). Few slots will be prepared and in my opinion, one of the main slot is Smart Solat.

During this slot, the students will be exposed to common mistakes that we make during wudu and solat itself. 

To be honest, the main reason for deciding to volunteer as a facilitator is because I wanted to hear the slots as well. Haha. It's like killing two birds with a stone because I even will be credited the GEMS point! :D by the way, GEMS is the points for extra curricular activities.

My Experience

The program was held on Friday and Saturday, since we had an exam on Friday, I was appointed as the "assistant faci". So basically I wasn't really in a specific group. It was my first time, so I didn't bother, indeed I was quite relieved because the last time I socialized like this (hahahah) was during school! 

So on Saturday, finally the slot that I've been waiting for came - Smart Solat. Firstly, Ustaz Suhairi delivered a very awakening lecture, filled with laughter and joy lol, after that we had a practical session. Male students were asked to leave the hall meanwhile the female students will remain in the chancellor hall. Oh anyway, the participants was almost 900 students. :O

At first I was with the group I was mistakenly put, which is group 10. But then the coordinator announced that there are few groups without facilitator. Could be those groups are the group with only male facilitator.

Without hesitant, the enthusiast me sort of came forward to fill the groups without facilitator. I kinda regret afterwards due to shock!! Hahahahha. You are a newbie, why did you do this honeyy. I tend to take challenge without thinking. T.T 

It was terrible.

I wasn't mentally and physically prepared. :( Yes I admit I have gone through few important points to be delivered, but I was quite stoned (not the weed, it's like you don't know what to do so you jst act like a stone). T.T

I apologized. Yes I did. Hahahahha. I was very nervous I spoke in English throughout the slots. Hahahhaha. As you can see I'm not really a good Malay thinker, during sympathetic activity, spontaneous reaction, I speak in English. Hahahahaha loser sungguh. 

Nonetheless, I fel rejuvenated. It feels so good to feel the adrenaline rush, like during school days. Hehe.

Alhamdulillah for the experience, for letting me start the first step. I am very grateful, there are so many people who wouldn't mind, having such a useless, in fact might have been a burden, to be around them. Hahahah. Ahhhh I'm so thankful. So happy. Thank you so much everyone, for always praying for my happiness. <3 comment-3--="">

Why does people only talk about adrenalline? What actually happen to nor-adrenaline? What's the difference? :O

Progressive Test 2 Complete!

Saturday, May 09, 2015
It's been awhile. I used to make fun of people who talk about how seldom they update their blogs.. And here I am doing it. Haha. But it's not merely because I have been busy or what, everything has been normal, it's me who got addicted on certain things like instagram, 9gag (oh it's been almost 3 years I'm with 9gag), and.. The truth is I haven't been able to manage my time well lately.

Recently our Biohemistry lecturers have introduced a viva session every end of each module. We always have a bad impression when it comes to test, what's more orally, right? Me too, but now after 3 vivas, alhamdulillah I am very grateful for the doctors effort and I am proud to say that it helps a lot in boosting my confidence to deal with questions.

Besides Biochemistry, we had a viva session for Anatomy as well. We were in renal module, and out of the blue we were asked to prepare for gastrointestinal module's viva. Gastrointestinal is basically our digestive system, so from the mouth until you defecate, all organs involved can be asked. :O Later we found out that it was held because one of us has requested for it. Haha never mind, alhamdulillah despite quite numerous students avoiding it, I faced it like a lady I am, and it went well.

Progress Test 2

Progress Test 1 was during our first semester, and the percentage will be combined. Alhamdulillah I got a C+ back then. Huhuhuuhu if you won't be happy for yourself, who would, right? :D Insya Allah this time I'm much more confident than before, it's just the I find it hard on MCQ. :( Even the simplest thing can get confusing just because you have to decide whether it's True or False. It even have negative marking. :/ So out of the 5 questions, if we get 2 options right, while 3 options were wrong, our marks will be -1!! Haihhhh that's why the legend says that if you're unsure, just leave it blank, the machine will leave it as 0 lol

On top of that, this was one of the test where we didn't get much "tips". Haha. I don't depend on those, but having it would somehow calms us, isn't it.. And I also figured out that I need to get the right technique to remember important things. You can't write the whole chapter about something, for a 4 marks question, then how should I!? I know how, I just gotta go and see the lecturers.. Hmm

One of the post exam syndrome : Enthusiast to revise more properly, ask the lecturers, etc. Hahahahh I guess it's still better than having no motivation at all. Insya Allah, here I am leaving it here so that I can remind myself always. Good night. Sleep tight.

Alhamdulillah dapat B- !

Thursday, March 05, 2015
Tak sehebat awak. 
Hahahahaha. Sesekali seronok juga kan baca orang dapat keputusan tak secermenlang orang cemerlang (?). Ya lah, tak akan lah kalau nak share, share result yang A, 4 flat je kannn. Maka, sedemikianlah keputusan peperiksaan semester 1, tahun 1 saya sebagai pelajar perubatan. Alhamdulillah.
Syukur tak bermakna puas hati. 
I know that I can. Insya Allah I will enjoy my study and strive to do the best that I can. I expected too much from myself, and danggg look at the first progressive test. Just when I thought I have adapted to the new phase of life, something I do feel like I'm left behind from my own track that I made myself. Ha.

Selalu lupakan Allah barangkali. Lalai, main je. Tak dahulukan Allah dalam segala urusan. Dah lah usaha kat dunia pun tak cukup, usaha untuk bertawakkal kepada Allah pun tak cukup. Itu je lah yang dapat ya. Kuantiti usaha memang kita boleh ukur, tapi kualiti kosong. Kadang-kadang bila macam keadaan bagus, baca sekali, terus faham. Hebat kan? Bila Allah nak bagi hidayah, senang macam tu je dapat. Tapi hidayah kena cari. (Dayahhhh macam mana study? Haha)

That's all for now. We got home very early today because the afternoon Anatomy lab has been cancelled yeay. And look what am I doing.. 

Insya Allah, doakan keputusan lepas ni bertambah baik ya. Semoga si penulis ni dapat fokus & diberi hidayah Allah sentiasa dan berjaya di dunia dan akhirat. Terima kasih.
