FUTURE PLANNING

WORK
Alhamdulillah, I passed the interview. And insyaAllah, I will start working at AmanahRaya Trustees Berhad as the Executive of Business Development starting on this coming 16th of May. The main responsibilities is to come out with good proposals, and such. Therefore, most of the time, I will be staying in the office. AmanahRaya Trustees (ART) Berhad is located near LRT Masjid Jamek, Kuala Lumpur. So I have to travel all the way from Kuantan to KL. I will be staying with my cousin, insyaAllah..


MASTER
I truly want to pursue my studies. InsyaAllah, I will be applying for master programme too (don't know when yet). And my choices (maybe): UKM or UM. Why? Because these two universities are located near to ART. I was planning to pursue my studies either in TESL or communication field.


WORK + MASTER
Well, if this is the path, I should be extra strong, independent and better at managing my time. This is too tough I guess -.-

CANVA EXPERIENCE

Have you ever heard about Canva?
It is a tool that makes designing becomes simple for everyone. Canva is used to create designs for web or print, blog graphics, presentations, Facebook covers, flyers, posters, invitations and so on.
 
Frankly speaking..
I have never heard of Canva before. But then I have to learn about this online tool during the Media Integrative class with Ms. Mahani.

Canva is a very useful and helpful design service that you can use if you need to make beautiful posters, invitations, cards, website graphics or even multiple-page presentations. Do not worry if you do not have that much experience and knowledge on graphic designing. Canva is way simpler than what you think. On top of that, Canva is FREE.

WAKTU-WAKTU TERBAIK UNTUK BERDOA

“Sesungguhnya bagi orang yang berpuasa ketika saat berbuka ada doa yang tidak ditolak”

SETIAP SELEPAS SOLAT FARDHU
 Dari Abu Umamah, sesungguhnya Rasulullah S.A.W ditanya tentang doa yang paling didengari oleh Allah S.W.T, baginda menjawab,
“Di pertengahan malam yang akhir dan setiap selesai solat fardhu”
DI ANTARA AZAN DAN IQAMAH
 Dari Anas bin Malik RA bahawa Rasulullah S.A.W bersabda, 
"Doa tidak akan ditolak di antara azan dan iqamah”

SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS AMERICAN ANIMATED SERIES



Spongebob Squarepants was created by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg for Nickelodeon. The series chronicles the adventures of the title character and his various friends in the fictional underwater city of Bikini Bottom. The main characters in Spongebob Squarepants are as follow:

Spongebob Squarepants
Patrick Star
Gary
Plankton
Squidward
Sandy
Mr. Crab

Even though I am currently 23 years old, this American animated television series is still my most favourite one. Why? Because.. This animation never fails to deliver positive messages to the audience. The characters also portray positive characteristics. For instance:

Spongebob: Very hardworking and loves his job as a fry cook in Krusty Krab very much. He is also very much helpful and loyal
Patrick: Very loyal and values his friendship with Spongebob too much
Squidward: Believes in himself too much. Very confidence and artistic
Sandy: A female scientist who knows how to defend herself despite of being a woman by learning karate

But most of all, Spongebob Squarepants is a great animated series to be watched as it portrays the value of friendship.

When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there.

MULTIMEDIA ENGLISH & VIDEO PROJECT (REFLECTION)


On our 6th semester, we were required to do a short video project for Multimedia English course. The lecturer was Ms. Mahani. Since there were sixty of us in the class, the group members should consist of six students per group. Our group, Ketam Biru Production decided to do a video entitled "Family Portrait". Both the poster and video were then presented in class.

"Family Portrait" was about a small family of six; an old mother with four children and also a daughter in-law. The casts were as follow:

Mother: Nur Azimah
Along: Muhammad Hafizi
Kaklong: Nur Alia Syafiqah
Kakngah: Nur Alia Majdina
Kaklang: Nur Fatin Nadia
Achik: Nur Farahin Ayub

I played the role of daughter in-law, Kaklong. Frankly speaking, it was not hard at all to act, especially with them because I have known them since my foundation year. Plus, we did not need too much scripts as we mainly did the casting spontaneously. It only took us about a day to complete the shooting. After the video has been edited, the final video took about 9:07 minutes.

I truly enjoyed the shooting. This is because, as Bachelor of English with Communication students, this was not the first time we had to come out with a video. There were too many videos and we even came out with short films before.

My groupmates were too awesome. That was why we managed to complete this task in a day. The venues involved were Bangunan Akademik, UniSZA, library and also Azimah's rent house. You guys may watch "Family Portrait" by clicking this link:


There were tons of humorous elements in this video, but at the same time, we want to portray you the family bonding, especially between a mother and the children. On top of that, we should also learn to accept the flaws as no one is perfect. Just as the simple quote we chose,

"We might be silly, but no family is perfect. We argue. We fight. But at the end, family is family. The love will always be there"

Meanwhile, for the course of Multimedia English, personally, I think that this subjects helps me a lot in enhancing my confidence level. For instance, this video project itself. It helps us to unleash our talent especially in acting. On top of that, this course also helps us to know more about the technology used in today's world. Since we live in a technology-oriented world, it is necessary for us to know about the applications and software. Thanks to FALCOM for offering this course to their students, and thanks to Ms. Mahani too for teaching us this Multimedia English course.
