JUST MAKE IT EASY

PICTURE DURING  CONVOCATION UPPER 6 2016

When i'm arrived at UNIMAS has brought changes to me, the environment of study, friends and so on. After graduating from form 6, I began to realize that life at university was very different compared to form 6 which was the way of learning.  I just can stop thinking about what happen during i'm in the university and how can i survive 4 years with many things???  Actually i love this course as a counselling student  it can teach me more about what is life? what kind of people that we meet? and so on.

 EXPERIENCES DURING CLASSES

After a week passed after the orientation or MIP, the experience I can not forget is hard to find a class for each subject. Hahaha, let's say 30 minutes of learning time has begun. In the meantime, it is difficult to remember the existence of the class for each subject. Therefore I have made the class schedule as a phone wallpaper. Learning in the classrooms is very different from form 6. This is because, it causing me to be less active and rather shy in the first week of the class but now i can adapt to my friends in the class and try to be active so i do not miss it. I think everyday i go to the class, my friends give me more motivated and always asking me the question that ''you look simple but you always happy act that you don't have any problems'' hmm not actually, but i just keep calm and don't stop praying because God always hear and answer our praying, ''BELIEVE IT''

TALK ABOUT ASSIGNMENT, HMMM

Individual assignment is actually more convenient than group assignment. This is because, individual assignments do not have to rely on others, do not waste time and do not take much time to complete. So I have no problem preparing individual Assignment. but, I'm having problems in a group assignment. sometimes many do not cooperate and only become 'parasit' within the group. Sometimes, i feel so bad and crying because of group assignment

 that we can't perform well but at the same time, this subject always make me happy when the class began, the anticipated subject was the subject of basic helping skills, as a lecture that taught this subject attracted me to the interest of the subject that i being taught. I feel very comfortable studying in class with my friends and how the lecture teaches easy to understand.

ORIGINAL SABAHAN

Suraida Binti Nasir (67839) - Original Sabahan

Assalamualaikum and hi, my name is Suraida Binti Nasir. You can call me ‘Su’ or ‘Surek’. It’s a weird name right. I am from Tawau, Sabah. I think only Tawau people can recognise me that I am from Sabah by heard my name. Tawau area is near from Indonesia. My tribe is Bugis. So, my name sound like Indonesian name. Usually, in a stigma people was think that dialect Sabah was same like Indonesian. It was quite funny if they try to talk with us using Indonesia language. But for others information, Sabah also have own dialect that unique like others state. Although some words are same with Indonesia language. I’m still proud to be original Sabahan.

Actually I don’t expect that I am at UNIMAS now to continue my study on degree. I really don’t want to be here and I was surprised that I get an offer to further my studies on Universiti Malaysia Sarawak. I always told my friend that I don’t want to go Sarawak but I also don’t know how can I put UNIMAS in my third choice. It was funny but it is the fact. But now, I realised that it was a fate for me to be here and I was happy to have an experience at here.

I was a counselling students and I have 6 subject core that I must take it. One of the subject is Basic Helping Skill. I was learn many things in this subject. My first impression of this subject is just ordinary because it was a basic of helping. But after I attend this class, it was amazing that I can learn new things on helping skills that I can practise it on my helping session later. During doing my individual assignment, I have learn many things. It was teach me a good things that I have finished during the day. I also can identified on how I can manage my time, stress and my anger. For my group assignments, it was teach me on how teamwork must be practise to get a good result for our work. We must helping each other and must have a tolerance.

About me and my first experience at UNIMAS

Hi everyone! First of all, thanks for giving your time to read my blog. To be honest, I'm not good in english and my grammar was so bad but I will try my best to make you all understand to what I want to share here.

Okay, my name is Lydia Anchi Anak Jimmy Jarraw and my friends call me Chi. I’m 21 years old and I came from Kapit. I lived at Taman Indah Baru, No 5 Jalan Selirik. While my longhouse is located at Nanga Sekeroh Sungai Oyan Mujong. I was born on 29 of January 1997 at Hospital Kapit. I am the third of my five siblings. I have two brothers and two younger sisters. My primary school is at SK Sungai Amang and SMK Selirik was my secondary school. 2016, I was graduated from form six and after I finished my study at SMK Selirik, I start to worked at Borneo Supermarket as a cashier. At that time, I started to learn what life is and I know how hard it was to looking for money by our self. On september 2018 I started my degree at UNIMAS. My course is counselling at Faculty of Science Cognitive and Human Resource Development.

THIS IS THE WAY TO MY LONGHOUSE (NANGA MUJONG)

THIS IS ME, LYDIA ANCHI 68388. HI :)

Now, I want to share my first experienced when I came to UNIMAS. 3rd of September is the day I'm registered at Kolej Bunga Raya Unimas. Actually UNIMAS is my first choice where I want to continue my study. I have set my goal to continue my study here, and thanks God I'm here now and I hope that I can finish my study here and I will become a successful counselor one day. 

At the first day that I know that I got offered study at UNIMAS, I was so happy but at the same times I'm feeling sad too. Things that made I sad is, my friends is not with me here and I start to think that I'm lonely here without my friends and my family. My roommate is my first friend when I came to UNIMAS, she is very kind girl and I feel comfortable with her. Then, my second friend is Joana. She is very polite and always be with me. Day by day, I start to make more friend and finally I have many type of friends from different background, all of them was very nice.

Next is my first experience when I entered the basic helping skills class for the first times. When I enter the class, I'm a little bit shy because I'm gonna meet with new people from different state and different culture.then I don't know how to start a conversation with them. However, I feel good after Dr.Fa  asking us to introcuce our self  and share a litlle bit about our self. At that times, we started to know each other. Basic helping skill 's class is quite interesting because Dr.Fa is a very nice and kind lecture. I feel comfortable and easy to understand. From this class also, I have learned how to become a good counselor and know the skills to helping the client. I was really  enjoyed this class.

 Lastly, I hope I can become a good counselor as Dr.Fa and as a other counselor and the important things is I hope I can make both of my parents proud of me and I will make them happy, always! :D. Amen.

MY SPECIAL LIFE

LAW MENG CHEE 66434 - My special life


Hello to all of you that are reading my first blog in my life. At first, I need to introduce myself so that you can know who am I otherwise you will say that who are you. My name is Law Meng Chee. All of you can call me as Law. My matric number is 66434. In this year, I am still 19 years old because my birthday is not coming yet.

My hometown is Sibu, Sarawak which is a small town surrounded mainly with Foochow people. So, I am also a Foochow but I am not familiar in saying it. But, I must learn it because it is our cultural language. My hometown has many delicious food and I think that it is the best food in the world. For example, kompia, wanton noodle, kampua and the list goes on. My hometown has different tastes of food so you will never sick of eating.

At the first day, I go to the class early because I still do not know where is my classroom. I cannot come lately to the classroom because I should make a great first impression to the lecturer and others. I try to search and walk everywhere. Luckily, I can enter the classroom correctly in the time. I am nervous at the first time when attending the first day of the KMC 1083 Basic Helping Skills class. I am scared when the lecturer is entering the class. But, I feel relaxed when I see my lecturer, Dr Fatahyah Yahya. She is really nice. She always has a kindly smile on her face. So, I can learn the lesson in a relax condition. In the first lesson, the lecturer asks me and my coursemate about the strengths. All of us opines their strengths. Everyone has their own strengths. Besides, the first lesson is talking about the helping, helper and helpee. From this lesson, I learn that what is helping, what is helper and what is helpee indeed. That is my first experience in the class.

Thanks for giving your time to read my blog. Have a nice day.

Just Go With The Flow

Assalamualaikum and Hi everybody. My name is Nawal Shahidah Binti Yusri. My matric number is 66923. All of you can call me Nawal. I am from Nibong Tebal, Pulau Pinang.

            What is counselling? In my mind before what I learn about counselling is to give advice to the person whose having problem but when I started learn counselling it is totally wrong. Honestly, I never dream or think to take this course and to be a counsellor. This is because since I was in kindergarten I have a dream and I want to be a teacher but did not happen. My destiny does not allow me to be a teacher maybe in this course I can do the best.

            Actually, when the result of UPU come out on the day I got this counselling course, I feel a little bit frustrated because I did not get the course that I want. So, I tell to myself everything is going to be okay and I can do it. At the same time, I feel so sad because I need to stay far away from my family. Before this I never get separated from my family and home. This is the first time I need to more independently without depending on my parents. For example, I need to manage my money and time on my own. So, I learnt something when I stay far away from my family.

            When the first class started I felt very nervous because I did not know much about this course. I started feel comfortable to learn about this course. At the same time, I am so excited because I get know friends from different ethnicity and places. But I cannot run from assignments. When the class started I enjoyed learning because this course is interesting. In addition, I can meet a lot of people from other background with different ages.

            In conclusion, sometimes we need to go with the flow but at the same time we need to accept the decision. I learnt that we cannot judge people based on their appearance. That all from me. Thank you.  

JUST A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME; SALWA SHAHMINAN

Hello everyone! This is my first ever blog and I am really excited to share with you guys about myself and of course you guys want to know about me. So, I am a pure Sarawakian and I came from a small village namely Maludam. It is located at Betong division which take only two hours journey from UNIMAS. It is a peaceful place and has a lot of beautiful scenery when you come here for sight-seeing. My village is rich with source of protein because a lot of people here earn their living as a fisherman. But when it comes to monsoon season, they can't go to the sea because it is dangerous. I miss my hometown so much and I want to go back there soon.

This is what my village look like

Okay, let just get started to the main point. My name is Nur Salwa binti Shahminan and I am 20 years old young lady. I was born on 14 January 1998, please keep the date guys so you won't miss it. I have six siblings and I'm the fourth child of the family. To be honest, I always act like I am the youngest child because I am an indulgent person and a little bit clingy sometimes but I know they still love me for who I am. My mother died because of blood cancer which is Leukimia. She left me almost three years and now I still longing for her. Without her presence and existence, I still try to live my life without her and doing my daily routine as usual. I just have only one picture with her and it helps me to reduce my sadness. It is a blessings in disguise for me because it taught me that, not everything that we love will last forever and I admit that. I try to be a strong person and never let anyone knows what I feel inside my heart.

Our last photo back on 2014

Actually, I am not good at making new friends and adapt with the new environment. But if we can be friends, I am pretty sure that we will be good and I won’t promise that we don’t have arguments. I am a cheerful person and tends to laugh a lot because it makes me happy. So, it will be nice if we can have good things to be done together because I want to make myself comfortable with you guys. The reason why I chose counselling because I want to help other people. I want to be a good counsellor because I want to learn about human better and I want get to know myself. I know I am not good handling problems with another people but I challenge myself to do a thing that opposite to my character. I know it will be fun if we can do the things that we really want to and give our all efforts just to make sure that everything is in order. Human definitely a unique creature and they have various character and each one of it is their strength. That's all I want to share about me and thank you for your times reading this Have a good day ahead!

This is me! You can call me Wawa or Sal

Best Damn Things

Hello guys. First of all I want to introduce myself once again even everyone knows me. My name is Jerald Ashley Ak James@ Ash (66263) and I come from Sibu, Sarawak. Let me tell you guys about my hobbies. I love to play Football, Futsal, singing, and hang out with my friends. I am friendly so don't worry guys, I am not gonna eat you if you have something to ask or want to make friend with me.

Ok guys, now I want to share my experience when I come to UNIMAS. It took 7 hours from Sibu to Kota Samarahan. When I reached at UNIMAS, I can feel that there will be a lot of struggles and hardworks because this is not a school anymore. Even UNIMAS is not my first choice of University and same goes to my programme, I speak to myself that I have to continue this journey even it is not my choice. Actually my ambittion is become a teacher and also I want to be a radio presenter. However, I have failed my Medsi and I got an offered from UNIMAS. Even I'm dissappointed and sad because I can't get what I want,  but I have to forget all of it for a while and think positively"Maybe I should explore about counselling field". Moreover, when I look at my parents' face, it  makes me more spirited because I have a promise to them, Im gonna be their first son to be graduated from University. Now, I try to adapt with University life and I feel more better because I have met new friends from different states of Malaysia, and I love to have more friends with different races and religions.

Next, I want to share about my experience when I attend to Basic Helping Skill class for the first time. . When I enter the class, I'm a little bit shy because I'm gonna meet with new friends. However, everything changes when Dr Fa is asking us to introduce ourself and I got new friends. When Dr Fa starts to lecture about helping skill, I'm a very excited because I want to learn the skills to help people with different problems. I think that, this class is quite interesting because I gain more knowledge and skills to help people. Even we are often to help people, I think that this subject help me to sharpen my helping skills especially to be a listener and give an advice. Because it was the first class, I can't understand and catch up some of skill that had been said by Dr Fa. However, I keep on focusing to the lecture because for me, it is a process of learning. Luckily, after the explaination I can get some of the information. Lastly, what am I interesting about this class is when Dr Fa always tell us her stories, experiences to give us motivation. 

Last but not least, I want to share a little bit about my title even it is not important. I choose best damn things because I think that, sometimes the things that we hate and we keep on doing it or get through from it gonna be a best think, moment or experience in our life. For me, it is suitable to tell my situation because  what am i taking right now, even it is not my first choice, I still want to learn about it because  there will be something good and worthy when I keep on learning this programme. The most special about this title is, Best Damn Thing is a song title from my favourite female singer Avril Lavigne.  That's all from me guys and thank you for spending your time to read my post.
