In 2004, Malaysia was shook by Nur Amalina Che Bakri scoring 17 1As in her SPM examination. As a result, she flew away to United Kingdom to pursue her studies in medicine, and Malaysia barely heard any words from her again. But, in recent years, she has resurfaced on social medias, as a successful surgeon-to-be. Despite her appearance is heavily critiqued by few people for not aligning with Malaysian, and specifically, Islamic values, that did not stop her from spreading positive vibes to everyone, making her (unofficially) a public figure, especially to Malaysian youths. And that is admirable, of course. I too follow her, and I like watching her updates, especially when she talks about her career, and generally about being a doctor. Like, she updates about surgeries and on-calls like regular girls updating about shopping and checking in into restaurants. Why she does this? Is it because she found the job of a doctor to be a 'good' job? A high-paying job? Although that...

Books are not so popular now, given that social medias have dominated our lives. Who can blame us? I mean, you tell me, on which media you are able to sustain more attention? On pics & vids, or long texts? Until secondary school. I loved reading. So much. I could read up to 3 100-pages books in 1 week, and I could remember what I was reading. I don't even know now how many books I currently have. But after secondary school, which is the period when I started to really use smartphones, I began to spend quite a time on social medias. Ultimately, I lost interest in reading books, and I am more attracted to pics & vids. Even in reading articles, I would be selective in regards of the length. So what? Has reading, in this era, become irrelevant? If not, will it become irrelevant one day? Personally, I don't think so. And it is not just because of the classics "Books will always continue to exist just because." People, especially the elders, keep telling...

My finals started about 2 weeks ago. As a result, 1 week ago, I didn't post anything on any social medias. Like, at all. Why? Am I busy enough studying and battling with papers to answer last week. Uh, not really. In fact, coincidentally, I had no papers at all last week. So why am I 'ghosting' from this responsibility of uploading content (almost) daily? Well, around now you may be able to guess the reason, or more accurately the excuse, of me doing so. I decided to dedicate the whole of week studying for my remaining papers. Yes, I had no papers, but I intended to just study the whole week. 1 week with no interruption at all, just focusing on studying. That would be heaven, right? And I should accomplished what I had intended, right? Ironically, I spent my time more on sleeping, watching YouTube as I tried to do so. The more I want to spent my time on studying, the less time I get to study. So ironic. Why? I'm really confused too. I should be able t...
