EXCITING NEW EXPERIENCE

NUR ASYIQIN BINTI HUSLI (68404)

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone! First of all, I would like to introduce myself as a young, dumb and broke girl named as Nur Asyiqin Binti Husli or you guys can also call me as Syiqin. I was born on 15 April 1998 3.48 a.m and I am 20 years old. Okay now I would like to start my story on my exciting new experience guys ha ha ha!😂Actually on the first day Dr Fa gives us the individual assignment, I thought that this kind of assignment is kind a bored and stressful. But I was totally wrong when I start to do this task. I can feel the interesting on doing this assignment and it besomes more fun when it comes to the task that ask us to list the 3 good things within the 7 days. For almost 6 weeks doing the task, I have learned a lot of things that I do not even mind before. I start to know more about myself than before. Besides that, I also met new people at the new places which is so different with my ex-school where I attend for STPM. I was struggling to adapt with the situations in this university because I did not familiar with it. Teachers at my old school is so different with my new lecturers in this Unimas. This is because most of the lecturers are prefer to give those assignments without any full of guidance so that students will be more independent and will be appreciated more for our efforts on those works. Then I would like to share my experience on how I done my group assignment with my team member namely as Cassey and Amu. We had so much fun on doing the assignments that have to be done with a video too. We were struggling to finish it by the end of the mid-semester but then we realize that our video has a lot of deficiencies and needs to be fixed somewhat. So we agreed to record a new video and ultimately we have successfully produced a video that accurate with the questions that have been given by Dr Fa. Alhamdulillah!💕 And through this group assignments, I saw that my team members are quite fun and good as well. They are some of the best team members I ever had as they cooperate with me as a family members even we are not in the same religion. I am very thankful for the friendship that we build in this Unimas. Thats all from me. Have a nice day everyone!🙋

Focus Gais!

Assalamualaikum and hi there!

So, let us be more matured in this entry kay. I've been in UNIMAS since 2 September 2018 which is two months already passed. I became more clearer with my purpose of entering UNIMAS everyday. Each time I'm working with my assignment and studies, I learned new experiences. I notice that I become more independent and matured as I'm now in university level. However, I do face difficulty when dealing with group or even individual assignment. I tend to be so lazy to do the assignment but I still feel grateful since I'm able to control this attitude. I hope you guys can pray for me that I would overcome this bad attitude. I senses that I become more cool and brave for each presentation. I learned lots of thing while conducting the latest live helping session assignment where I find that I am good while acting conducting a counselling session as a trainee counselor. I thought I would be so bad at it. I find that all I need is courage. I learned that when one gain their courage, everything would be so smooth. I also learned that to be a courage person, ones need practice and high determination.

Regarding subject KMC1083 Basic Helping Skills, I learned to be a good counsellor, trainee counsellor need to have skills in conducting a counselling session. It might not be as easy as we thought but it never been hard once we understand how to apply it. I have a tip on conducting a good counselling session. I think I suit best with this tip. Everyone feel nervous for the first time right, so just start practicing without concerning whether we are good or not. We can always refer to our lectures or coursemates.  I learned that one can start practicing with Person Centered Therapy theory (PCT) since it is the simplest theory to understand and to conduct. A counsellor need to be congruent, empathy and respect to the client. However, if we conduct a counselling session without proper skills, we should not even called ourselves a trainee counsellor. So, never feel stupid when you have to learn basic skills from the beginning again just because you did not remember because a learner always study to become an expert.

So, my wish for my coursemates is I hope everyone can study to the earnest of their heart.

I MADE IT.....?!

         

Almost coming to the end of semester 1 in UNIMAS, I felt like it was an intense short life changing experience for me. With all the assignments due dates, the lectures, the activities and programmes, the conflicts, problems and emotional breakdown in between, I think i have became a stronger person now compared to before.

          Overall, the life here in UNIMAS for the first semester is very good so far, I get to learn a lot of things and deal with different type of individual. I met some good people and some that I would prefer to call them the one that gave me a lesson in life. Whether it is a good or bad experience, i would like to keep it as memory that I would treasure forever.

          During the long period of hecticness, I get to learn new things and experience especially when doing the assignments. I learnt that our ways of working is not always the same therefore commitment and cooperation is very important. Besides that, I also get to identify the few that might not be a quite functional or contributing when it comes to doing group assignments. However, its all about the outcomes, in my opinion, at least.

          Some of the assignment that were given was really challenging to the point that I started to doubt my ability to achieve it and continue my studies in this programme. Thankfully, the people around me helped me a lot through the process until i am able to finish the assignment. Therefore, if there is anything that I have regretted about is that I ever doubted myself in being able to get through the hardships while being here.   

          In conclusion, the whole first semester was such a memorable experience for me. No matter how good or bad the situation is, I am thankful for the precious people that stayed by my side till the end. Doing the assignments was such an enjoyable and fruitful thing for me, eventhough there are stress, pressure and tension, the feeling of getting it done is probably the most joyful feeling ever. Now, we only have to focus for the final exams, therefore, all the best everyone ! 

Shhh.. A Love Story?

Assalamualaikum and good evening. I’m Fathiah. Today, I would love to write a love story of me. Yeah guys! I’m going to share with you my love story. Do leave comment for my post ya, guys. Ok, my love story began when I wait for the letter that day. I’m anxiously wait for it. I’m so excited and yet scared too. I believe it would be a memorable day because I wait for quiet so long. It is the day when I received a letter from UNIMAS. Yeah, I trick you guys. My love become so much clear when I reach Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2. It is always been my dream to enter university. I still remember where I arrive at UNIMAS with my mom, dad, younger sister and both of my grandparents along with my uncle. I act very tough that day. I try to hide my excitement and love for UNIMAS. I really looking forward to be a part of UNIMAS but I don’t expect to be here and fall in love with counselling programme. My second choice in UPU system is Psychology at UNIMAS. At first, I do get sad because I really want to pursue in Psychology. However, I told myself that it is okay. As long as I get into UNIMAS, I wouldn’t mind. I already study and do some research about UNIMAS before I get the love letter. Part of UNIMAS that get my attention most is the swimming pool. I really love swimming and you know what, until now I didn’t get the chance to swim in the pool because I get so busy with my beloved counselling programme and of course I'm very active with clubs. I love UNIMAS because I can do almost everything I want and all I have is time.It is my responsibility to divide my time fairly for both academic and non-academic activities. I really enjoy my self being in UNIMAS for four years, In Shaa Allah. I want to challenge myself throughout these four years of studies. No matter how hard it is to be a trainee counsellor, I would express myself freely here. At first, I might walk too slow but please never underestimated me because I know I can become the best of FATHIAH in the meantime. I fall in love with counselling when I see lots of similarity between me and counselling every day. I might lack of confident now and I might be a little bit lazy student yesterday. But you know what, I never been so happy for tomorrow especially when I’m in UNIMAS. Okay, now you guys know my secret. So, let it just be our secret okay? Shhhhhhh… My love for counselling and UNIMAS grows everyday guys. So, hwaiting! Let’s be the best of us throughout these four year!

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

Hello everyone! My name is Cassey Lapu Jettle. I’m from Limbang Sarawak. I was born on the 10^th of April in 1998, which means I am 20 years old now. I would like to share my experience when I do my individual and group assignment and after I completing both of my assignment. To be honestly I feel very tired and stress. This is because there is a lot assignment that I have to do also. I can’t even have enough rest few weeks ago and I sometimes I crying at night because I think that I can’t do the assignment and also for the other assignment. What makes me can through all of this because of my parents and also my friends. They are my supporter. They keep on saying that I can through all of this. Thank God that I can finish all my assignment for individual and group assignment. 

 I still remember my parents said that where ever I go, I will learn so many experience in my life no matter good or bad experience. Yes! Absolutely yes. Of course I’ve had bad experience in my life, it’s not that I’m okay and happy but I tried to help myself to think positive that any problems that hit my life it will have a way and everything will. Therefore since I’m in here I have meet many friends since I like to communicate with other people and get to know them and also get to know new interesting individuals. When I meet new people in my life and they happy to meet me, I will feel comfortable with them. I believe that friendship is one of the most important values in human life. I believe that. The bad experience that happen in my life made me the way I am now. I feel grateful, full of love, I feel blessed.

Thank you for reading my simple story. God Blessed you.

INTO THE NEW WOLRD

My name is Merrylynn Sulaiman, but I prefer people calling me Merr. I was born on 22nd of September 1998 in Sabah. I grew up surrounded by music and books which explains my great interest in vintage and old music. I am also into BTS, Harry Potter, Narnia, Westlife, Celine Dion and Michael Learns to Rock. Cecilia Ahern and J.K Rowling are my two favourite authors. Well, that's a few basic things about me.

 First of all, I would like to share on how I felt about taking the course o Counselling here in UNIMAS.When I first received my offer letter,I was quite surprised that I was offered this course. Since I was involved in lots of counselling-related club , it makes me feel like I'm taking a new step into what I've grown fond of.  Being a UNIMAS student has been such a spin off for me. I got here and managed to settle in well during orientation week.I may not seem like seem like it, but I really miss my hometown and family. I also got to learn what is is like to be a trainee counsellors.

 I kept thinking about how can I help the society with the knowledges that I will acquire in my four-year study.I learned so many new things through this course. I learned how counsellors use the helping skills to help others. What kind of theories that are related to each issue. I saw how every little things cousellors say or do can become a huge favour for somebody else. I also wanted to take this course because I want to reach out to other people just now. Inspired by the insecurities of my appearance,  I want to stop pushing myself too hard and started to help others. Be it the same problems with me or not. I was also inspired by the generosity a boy band shown to me. They became a symbol of self-acceptence because of their music and lyrics. I was really motivated and I finally decided to choose Counselling and stay to help others in the future.

78% and almost done

Hi everyone. Sorry for the late night post. I think my brain functioning well at night. Usually I spend this hour by doing my assignment but tonight, I want to continue my story about my experience being a counselling students or a special name that Dr. Fa give us that is ‘trainee counselor’.

In busy finishing our report, case study, video and presentation, we are now in week tenth. Undeniable, as a student we have a lot of things to do. Assignment can make me fun, feel motivate and also can make me feel nervous.

In BHS subject, things that make me fun is when doing assignment. As all of you know, this subject have one individual assignment and group assignment. I enjoyed doing individual assignment because I know myself better because there was a part that I have to write about myself, my family, my behaviour management and the happiness project.

After shoot for our video assignment

But, there is a part that hard for me is a letter of gratitude. I do not want to write that letter to my parents because they not influence me at all. But, I know they always support me on whatever I am doing now. I have one friend that I knew when I went to boarding school. I entered that school by myself without my lower secondary school friends because I am the only one who did the last minute decision. Being far from family and did not have any friends is too challenging for me. I act like there were nothing happen because I want to show to my parents that I have made a good decision. I start knew this guy because we were in the same class. He was an excellent student during our batch. Because of his good academic, he always challenged me. One of his challenges was he wanted me to get on stage to receive SPM slip. You know what, I accepted that challenge and I made it!! But, I realize. I never thanked  him. I also do not why. Maybe it is because of my ego.

Another BHS assignment that I enjoyed was making a video editing although I feel like a drunk person. This was my first time doing the video editing. I learn editing skill in youtube and my friends that have skill in editing also taught me very well. Making a video want you to cooperate with your group members. Praise to god, all of my member doing well and give 100% commitment. Thank you Salwa and Izzah for staying up till morning to finish our report. Thank you very much!!!

Realize or not, we almost finish our semester 1 syllabus. Do not forget that our BHS examination just around the corner. Good luck to all my friends. Thank you for lending me your time reading this blog.
