Hye guys! I'm back! So, in this entry I would like to share with you guys my moments on doing group assignment and my live session. GROUP ASSIGNMENT!
I would like to say that, this assignment was quite hard to do it. Yeah, it's not easy to be an actor you know. But, I am glad that we managed to complete the task. Special thanks to my group members, Syikin and Wati. This assignment makes me getting to know them closely. I want to apologize to you guys if all the time to complete this task, I have made a mistakeπ I'm happy to know both of you π And not forgetting our special appearance Nawi, Khalil, Ivy and Wawa. It's great to work with you guys.
So, here are some special bloppers during our shooting time. Hope you guys enjoyed watching itππ
LIVE SESSION!
Thanks god, I already done this session. I felt so relieved when I've completed my first live session. At first, there was some technical error before my live session hour. But Alhamdulillah, everything under control. Special thanks dedicated to Hafiz for being my client. You're my "Ultraman" ! With no idea whether what story will be told to me and no rehearsal at all. Just go to the lab room, acted like professional and camera roll!
It's a wrap!!
Sometimes we look far and wide only to find the solution beside us.

Individual Assignment and Group Assignment Experiences
The individual assignment really help me a lot and it help me to know myself better. in this individual assignment, i have to write everything about myself, my family background and my education background. Besides that, i have to write about my own behavior and the ways i manage my own behavior. From this assignment, i can figure out my own behavior and i learned my ways to manage and try to handle my own behavior. It is good for us to know our own behavior so that we can find a way to manage our own behavior. Besides that, i was required to do three good things per day for a week. As a result, i realized that the meaning of helping. Helping others or doing good things can make my day and i do feel awesome. Everyone of us can be hero by helping the helpless or others. For me, a hero does not mean that he must has incredible strength or power to help others, but a hero must have the willing to help others. Thus, everybody can be a hero by helping others. For the group assignment, my group members are required to make a short video and the content of the video must include the theory, the skills and the helping techniques that we have learnt in the class before. At the beginning, I was worried because I was not good at acting. But fortunately, i was able to perform well and act well. This is all about the support and encouragement that given by my group members. Thus, i have learnt the important of teamwork and co-operation in doing a task. Besides, i do love this assignment because my group members and me do have so much fun throughout the assignment.

What i have learned in Basic Helping Skill
First of all, i would like to say a big thank you to our lecturer, Dr.Fa for teaching me a lot.
My first impression of the counseling is giving advice to people. After attend for the class, i learnt that the duty for a counselor is to try his best to listen and try understand the issues of client. Counselor can guide the client to solve their own problems with their own ways. Apart from that, I have learned the helping skills and techniques in the class. These helping skills and techniques are required for the counselors to conduct their counseling sessions with their client in future.
Other then that, I would like to say a big thank you for my classmate. I have learned a lot from you guys. I still remember when I first entered the classroom for the first time, I felt a bit nervous because I do not know the attitude of all partners. But after that, i realized that you guys are friendly and always pull a joke on each other and i love to attend for the class because of you guys. I learned that we have to talk with someone first in order to strengthen the relations between each other. Besides that, I also learned we have to motivate ourselves and give motivation to others when they are in low spirit. That is what i learned from you guys when you guys always gave motivation to each others.
Lastly, I would like to end my text with a big thank you. Thank you Dr.Fa and thanks guys.

πSee yaa Next Sem!!!!π
As times fly, there're so many things happen during 1st semester. Sometime it's make me happy, sad, anxious, surprise and so on. We as a human never expect what will happen in the future. Some said we're too afraid to face problem because we always think that what we have now is good enough to us.π¬π«
Same goes to my life line in UNIMAS. At the beginning semester, I find myself struggle with new environment. Yes before this I had been stay away from my family because I continued my study in diploma at Kuala Lumpur but this time isn't same case as before π¦π’. Maybe this things happen since Sarawak is across South Chinese Sea and need to use aeroplane to come here. I can feel how far is Sarawak even this state is still in Malaysia. Things become worse when I want to registered in UNIMAS my parents can't sent me to university because they had to prepared their physical & mental to do Hajj this year π’. Their flight date is 2 days after my registration in UNIMAS. My first two weeks was hectic and horrible. Slowly I tried to manipulated my mind to overcome this problem. "Until when this emotions will control my life, right?" So, I wake up from my "sleep" and create my new journey since then. Nur Athirah & Mohd Noor Hafiz, these people are like my precious treasure because without them, I will never survive in this journey π. I also want to say that how grateful I'm since they able to accept me with unconditional positive regards from the beginning. And of course to Nur Athirah, I'm glad that i know you and hope our friendship will last until forever. ππ
To other beloved friends in Counselling 16/17, our journey just about to start so, together we as a team/family makes our family, friends, faculty, lecturers and university proud with us.....πͺπ
Hello to all readers!!For this last post i am gonna tell about my experience during the Basic Helping Skills class.When I registered into this class at the beginning of the semester,I only think that this class was a class that every trainee counselor should attend because from the subject name itself is this class is to develop and improve the helping skills in me.My thought was right in the end because this class helps me a lot in developing my helping skills.For me helping skills is very important in every counselor to make sure that they can help their client to solve their problems.In the first day of this class,Dr Fa,the lecturer of this class asked us to introduce ourselves and she also asked for our strength in ourselves.I heard so many strength from my friends.This makes me think that we in this class can cooperate and work together with the strength that we have not only in this subject but also for other subject.Dr Fa also explain about the assignments and the exams that we gonna do for the first semester.The assignment that we need to do is the first assignments which need us to introduce ourselves and state the kindness that we do in one week.The second assignment that we need to do is the assignment that needs us to shoot a helping session video.For me,assignments that i like the most for this subject was the video assignment.This is because that assignment really makes my group member and I became more creative especially in creating our scene for the video.As this class was held at 2 pm until 5 pm,I really try my best not to feel sleepy during the class.This class also teach me a lot about the value of being a counselor.Being a counselor really need us to be a very positive person as the positive aura that we have in ourselves can bring the good effect to other people live.This class also taught me to become a good listener because a good listener is one of the criteria that a counselor should have in order to listen to the clients issue.During the role play in this class,I was doing the role play with Hafiz.I became the counselor and Hafiz became my client.The issue that we discuss is just a typical student problems which is regarding the exams.During that role play session,I was feeling confuse about the question that i need to ask to my client.Dr Fa helps me a lot during that session as she helps and guide me what to do with that sessions and she taught me the question that i need to ask to the client.For our final exam,we were needed to do a live counselling session with the client.This time my client was Rene.Dr Fa told me that during the session,it is obvious that i look nervous and lack of exploration during the session.I will take that comment from Dr Fa to improve myself especially during the session.My experience during this class was unforgettable and valuable in guiding me to become a counselor.That all from me,Thank you!!
I still remembered the first time I walk in through TR3, the first time I saw Dr. Fa and also the first
time I saw my coursemate. That time I was a little shy girl because there’s no
one that I’ve knew there except for eejay, faz and also rene. We are doing the
ice breaking for our first class and at that time I got to know more of my
coursemate.
During the class,
what I’ve been learn from it was actually a different type of helper I can see.
All this while, I thought that to be a helper just need a helping skills but
that was completely wrong. Helper are divided to three part that consists of non-professional,
para-professional and professional helper. Basically to be a helper, we need a skills and
also techniques to become a really professional helper one day.
Everyone can be a
helper as long as you do everything with sincerity without aiming for something
else. For me, this class really teach me to be a great helper one fine day. I’ve
learn the technique and skill for counselling sessions and also the difference
between advising and also counselling. Actually, counselling session was not an
advising session that we can do as what we want in the supermarket or maybe in
the coffee shop and so forth. Basically, people are thinking that counselling
is just a technique of questioning and also with full of therapy. Not everyone
know that the counselling session is not all about the questioning. There is a
lot of techniques as a counsellor should know and they can use them during the
counselling session. I did learn also about unconditional positive regard which
was taught me to accept whomever that come to us to do a counselling session. We
have no right to judge them by their personality and also their appearance. We need
to know their story first before talk behind them.
“We know their name but not their story”
This class was really
make me learn more about empathy and also how to handle someone’s feeling by
just staring at them. Basically, as a human being, it is normal to judge people
before get to know them. Our first impression is really important but not
everyone know that knowing their story is an important task that we need to
know first before judging them. This is what I’ve learn during the class.
Today I am going to share a bit of my memories for yguys to
read it out. First of all, this BHS class was really really “daebak” really I can
tell. I have a very kind and the best lecturer in the world and the award of course
goes to Dr. Fa. Thankyou for being such a kind mother to me and more than that
actually. Thankyou for all of your kindness all this while during this whole
first semester really hope that I can be your student again for another
semester. You are such a mother to me more than a lecturer because of your
concern and your mothering attitude maybe π I really love you and really want to see you again for next semester. Thankyou Dr.
Fa for everything and thankyou also to remember my name hehe π
Next, I want to
give this appreciation post to two of my groupmates. Of course the one and only
my Eejay Ryeane and Nurfazila or easy to be known as fazz. Thankyou and a big big
applause I give to both of you for being such a good teammates to me during our group assignments. Yguys
really helped me in whatever situation I’ve had during our group assignment
especially during editing our video. Basically, this was my first time editing
the video and played with the computer software and sort of that. At the first
place, I did give up once after all of my effort become useless because of the
lacking in editing the video. And thank to god, I got a really competitive
teammates or what I can say is my strength to keep on going to push me and
helped me in whatever way they can. What I can say here is yguys was more than
friends to me. I’m really glad that I have been grouped with two awesome people
that never complaining everything I’ve said. Sorry if I act like a leader
sometimes while actually I’m not the one. This was because I just want the best
result for our video presentation.
I still remembered our first meeting for
shooting the video was at Unimas lake which was a bit embarrassing for us to
acting at there because there was to many of people passing-by. When we have a
scene that need a lot of people to passing-by but vice-versa was happen. There was
no one there and we need to wait until someone is there hahaha. But this
memories can’t beat this one which is the day when we are planning to go out to
do our video at waterfront. The obstacle that we have to faced is when me and
fazz need to wait for Eejay to wake up for almost 2 hours. He didn’t answered
our calls and almost 40 times we give a call for eejay to wake-up. Boys right? Yguys
know that boys was a creature that hard to be wake-up especially if in the
early morning. But the thing is, eejay was the one that planned to go out at 8’oclock
and yet he is the one that running late. And then me and fazz decided to go for
breakfast while waiting for eejay to answered our calls. After over and over again
calling for eejay, finally he wake-up and we need to wait for another an hour
for he to prepared himself. So, moral of the story, (especially for eejay) don’t
watch movie at midnight if you got something to do in early morning hahaha. This
memories I really want to keep it longer in my unconscious memories so that I can
remembered the two of you that really hyperactive and sometimes become crazy
together. I am looking forward to work together with the two of you again for
another assignment. Thankyou my darling and see yguys for another semester.
And before i ending my blogging, here is a video i dedicate it to those guys that i loveπππ
Much love from meπ,

Basic Helping Skills Class??⛔π
"What kind of course is this? Why should I take this course? Like, really??"
That is my first thought when i looked at my subjects list for this semester. I was like do counselor need to learn and know this kind of subject?π As i know counselor only give an advice to problematic people. If not an advice that counselor will scold and humiliate that person before he/she know what kind of problem that client had. I also thought counselor job is easy and have a lot of free time. Other than that, I always imagine counselor only work at school setting only. Other setting doesn't need this kind of job since counselor job is to solve students behavior and give an advice on how to overcome their bad attitude. π’
When I entered BHS class for the first time, I become in secured to myself because my first choice was to be a psychologist not a counselor. I had inner conflict with myself since this is not I want but I have to overcome that problem so, I convince myself to go with the flow. Maybe this is my opportunity to learn more about counselling and gain new knowledge from this course. I hope this course will help to widen my thought about "what is counselling all about?"
My other problem is I'm an introverted person. I had a difficult situation when I arrived at UNIMAS. This is because I really bad on how to approach and build a new relationship with people. I tend to closed myself before other people can approach me first. This personality also make me to observe people behavior first, then I would decide how match that person with me. If not, I will adjust my character to match with that person. BUT when I feel comfortable with someone, they will see my "real" behavior even myself doesn't realize since when my character goes like that. ππ¬
Assalamualaikum and hi everyone!! π
So, today I would like to share about my journey during basic helping skills class. Fuhh, actually I don't know how to start it π
LOST!
That's the story where there it all began. At that time, I feel like I want to cryπ but I know crying is not the best solution. Oh! By the way, I forgot to tell my nameπ Just to let you know, I'm Deena and I'm Johorean! Okay, continue with the story. After finish my first Introduction of Cognitive Science (ICS) class, I took my phone and checked my schedule whether i had class or not after this.
" KMC 1083 (LEC) FSKPM,TR3"
Oh what? KMC 1083? What kind of subject it is? But the important thing is where is the FSKPM,TR3 ? Yeah, that's the first thing comes to my mind. I just walk and walk until FLSCS! Then I asked someone, where FSKPM is. He helped me to find the faculty.. oh i already pass it π haha. Thanks to the senior who help me, but then I forgot to asked him whether he know where TR3 is. But never mind, I can find it by myself despite various challenges plaguing..π ceh, I'm just kidding π. Finally, I found the class. Yeaah! Entered the class with a myriad of feelings. Excited, scared, nervous and curious but acted like nothing happened. Just sit back and relax hehe.
MY FIRST IMPRESSION ON BASIC HELPING SKILLS!
To be honest, I feel curious to know what basic helping skills is. What I will I learn in the class and how to take the exam later. It sound weird and interesting you know. "Tak tahu pula nak tolong orang pon kena ada skill?" π During our first class, Dr Fa told us what exactly we will learn on this class. I gain a lot of information during the class. And yeah, I started to love this subject and of course I fall in love with the way Dr Fa gave her lecture. I love when she told us about the cases that she had handle before, so interesting.
In this class, I got to know that in order to be a professional counselor, we need to have skill, theories,stages of helping and the techniques. A counselor must congruence, respect, unconditionally positive regards with the clients and the most important thing is kept the confidentiality of what happen during the counseling session as long as it doesn't involve the client to harm themselves or other people around them.
MY FIRST ASSIGNMENT!
So here, I want to told what I had learn with my first assignment. Dr Fa want us to tell about ourselves. I have to write about my background, my family but it more focuses about me actually like how do I manage my stress, conflict and angry. But the best part that I like when doing this assignment is when it come to list about the good things I had done in a week. Like seriously, I don't realized that all this time I had done something good even it just a small things. This assignment make me got know more about myself.
So, I think that all for now. I will tell about others on my next entry. Great to know all of you! Have a nice day.
Hello to all the readers in this blogπ.It is a pleasure for me to have a chance to write and post something in this blog.First of all,I want to thank Dr Fa for being such a nice lecturer during the class.Okay now i want to share my experience in doing the group assignments.My group members is Syira and Fazz.At first when I know they were my group member,I became very excited because I know that both of them are naughty and hyperactiveπ but I know that they were both very cooperative especially in doing assignments.In this assignment,we were asked to do a helping session video with a duration of 20 minutes.At first,it was quite difficult for us to think the ideas in the making of the video because we were not really clear about the topics we need to put in the video.At last,we decide to do the videos with different scenes and situation in the videos.It end up we put 9 different scenes in the video.The most valuable experience that I get in completing this assignment is when shooting the videos itself.It really taught us to not to depend with other in completing this task.This is because the three of us did not asked for anyone helps in shooting this video as we know we can do it by ourselves.We shoot this video at UNIMAS and Waterfront area.We were a little bit shy to act at Waterfront because a lot of people were watching us during our act.But due to our commitment in doing this task,we carry on acting and shooting our video,giving our very best effort and energy,hoping that our video will become the best and enjoyable for the rest of the classmates to watch during the presentation.The most unforgettable moment in the making this video was when Syira and Fazz asked me to act as a 'mak nyah' in this video.That moment we were shooting this video at UNIMAS lakeside.It was really hard for me to act like that at first but in the end me myself was satisfied with that 'Jiji" character in that scene.After we complete in our shooting,we continued to edit our video.It was Syira who edit the video.She did a very good job in editing the video.There was a bit of problem when she was editing the video.The problem is the video is covered with the watermark which make the video was disable to watch very clearly.Thank God at the very last minute Syira was able to solve that problem and our video was ready to watch for our presentation.There are few valuable things I get during this assignment.One of it was I realize that the compatibility of three of us was really outstanding.This is because we create our scene spontaneously during the shooting process.I did not expect that we can do this task this good and outstanding way and we managed to complete it within the due date.
Before I end this,I would like to thank Dr Fa once again for the guide that were given to us in completing this task.And finally to my special group member,Syira and Fazz,Thank you for the cooperation that both of you gave during this assignments.You guys are awesome in your own way girls!!Keep it up!!And I hope that we can be in one group again for the next assignment.Thats all for me.Thank you!!

Okay I will share a story about my experience and my group in carrying out the project assignment 2. Before that I will explain a little about the assignment 2, okay in each group have the 3 or 4 members of the group so the assignment is each group will make a video related helper and helpee in addition to practicing the techniques and skills that we have learned in the class BHS for 20 minutes. So I gonna share the story about my group assignment which are I was with a group with Fazu and Niesa. Honestly, I never exchanged and talk to them until I have a group with both of them. The first time we all met respective shamed each other. I’m also shame do not know why maybe I’m older than them. But thank God we were getting close while carrying out this task. Hahahaha π.. Okay I want to share about the process we got the idea to make a video. First of all we discuss to do a story on the issue of students who have had problems related to education, have the problem with group assignment and problem about time management. However, the time taken for less than 10 minutes then we discuss again to find new ideas for prepare the video for 20 minutes. Then the next idea is the same student has a new problem, namely the problem with group assignment and problems with boyfriend. hmmm. Be shortened, the student meet her friend to tell her issues her through. In this assignment we used many minimum response and summarizing skills. I want to upload the video that we made but can not upload, so sad. But it’s okay, I upload another video. Enjoy.. That’s all from me. Thank you ..
I am going to share about my first experience attend in the class’s Dr. Fa. My first attend in that class we learn about the helper-helpee relationship. As a summary on the topic of what I’m can describe is related to the relationship between the helper and the client's own counselors. Counselor relationship with the client should not be excessive which means the relationship is just not in session just below the exit. The relationship has gaps and limited by ethics. Although the interaction between counselor and client so closely during the sessions but that relationship and not just during the session lasting up to take the session.
Okay exhausted the topic of the I am got, it is what I know .. Kalau salah tolong tunjukkan .. hehehe π... So I want to share my views about the environment in the classroom. First time I came this class, I still blur .. As what I learn that because I am is second intake so that why I did not know about BHS. But the day I will can follow the subject. This subject not only provide application knowledge about basic help to helpee also grant helper the techniques and skills to apply during the session. The important thing is the helper must listen, understand and practice the techniques and skills. Environment of classroom relaxed and very relaxing. About what that Dr. Fa teaching can be understood. What I like BHS’s class is the environment of the classwas okay and does not cause students to stress. Actually I do not know what want to share else hahahaha πππ.. So, okay lastly but not least is I will share about the group assignment BHS, what will group member will do it but i will continue to next pages. That is all thank you. Please comment below .. ihihihi.. π
We are not a team because we work
together. We are a team because we respect, trust, and care for each otherπͺπͺπͺ. LOVE
BOTH OF YOU. Oh ya, don’t forget 30th December is my birthdayπππfazzπ
During the first day of our
class, we did a short of ice breaking. We introduced our self in the class and
Dr Fa wants us to tell the class what is our speciality. That time, I don’t
even know what my speciality isπΆ. So I just told them whatever comes in my
mindπ. During the first class, I am not give a full of attention while the
others was introducing themselves because that time I was mentally somewhere
elseπ.
π¨Moving forward to what is my
first impression of the BHS classπ―? To be honest, at first I thought that
this will become a boring class and think how am I going to stay awake in this
class later. But, I was totally wrong. After the second class with Dr Fa, I
started to loveπ this class so much because of the family bondπͺ that we create in
this class is too close. We have the chemistryπ. We helped each other no matter
what. I have learnt the skillsπͺ and techniquesπͺ to help people or helpee in a
correct way. Dr Fa gave us all the knowledge that we need to become a
professional counselorπ. In the BHS class also, we have done a lot of role play
in order to help us to perform well during the final. I did the role play with
Syira(my crazy dear monster)π½ but we end up the role play by laughingππ on each
other. I don’t know why this happened huhuπΆ . But Alhamdulillahπ, during the
final exam (session), Syira and I can improve betterπ§π§. Okay, I think thats all
from meπ―. Thanks guys for all your kindnessπ. I LOVE YOUUUU MUAAHHHHHHHπππ --- Fazz

Individual Assignment and Counselling Session
Individual Assignment
Assalamualaikum…hai everyone…
Today, I want to story associated with individual assignment basic helping skill that has done. Individual assignment is a task related to self. For example, we need to state our background, family and what that we like. Through this I can share a little bit about what that I have such as advantages and disadvantages myself. In fact, I also can share my experience that never went through when anger, conflict with someone and something that can cause me stress. In addiction, I also need state to way how I handle related with anger, conflict and stress. During the conduct this individual assignment the part that I very like is the happiness project. This is because this part I need to do things good exercise. I consider this as an exercise to do good in helping people. In addiction, good things exercise also helps me to recognize myself. Good things that has I do in helping others has given a positive life. Not only that, this part also teach me to understand the roles and attitudes that need have to a counselor.
Counselling Session
Around counselling session…before I start the counselling sessions my feeling “dup dap dup dap”…nervous…I do not why can so nervous while in the later counselling room just me and client only. Arrived on the day a counselling session on 9/12/2016…when in the room counselling session I feel nervous again while waiting for client. When the client has entered into session room I start to build a relationship with client. I asking client has eaten or not and how the travel to come this session. After I already comfortable with the client state that I feel nervous from the beginning of the session has already lost. I was doing a session with a client until the completion of the session. Alhamdulillah…although nervous also finished this session…
