REACTIONS

Response to another event.

I had a mixed reaction few months back when I found out I got into Uitm's Diploma in Statistics programme. My first reaction was,well happy of course after hearing that those that get offers to do Matriculation will not be offered any course in the public Universities.

Devastation was my second reaction.The course that was offered to me will only be at Machang,Kelantan.For Malaysians,when they hear Kelantan,all they can think about is PAS,Tok Guru and about the religious level of its residents.I too once think that way.

Orientation week was not fun at all.For 5 days,our schedule was packed full with talks by the seniors,lecturers,doctors and also University staff.Each day,I wake up at 3am in the morning just to take my morning bath and be present infront of DO's cafe at 4am.Not to brag but Im usually the only one there at 4 even though the seniors had specifically told us to be there at 4.Then comes Subuh prayer and the boring talks begin!

My only true companion and now one of my good friends at Uni is Wan(Pahang) and Uwais(Kelantan) Both of them are nice and are not lame like most of the guys in my batch.But after the orientation week,we kinda drifted apart since we were all in different programme.I was in Statistic while they were in Quantitative and Computer Science.

Was kinda happy with my class since most of them were Korean fans.At first I was not a big fan of the guys since for the first few weeks they mostly acted like jerks(sorry guys).Nana and Nisah were especially nice(erk?) to me.After a few weeks,I started getting closer with Ameer and Apan since I decided to do my projects with them and not with Nana and Nisah (:3).

Since I was frequent visitor to Ameer and Apan's room,I started getting closer with their roommates and friends.Izzad,Ameer,Ang,Fuad,Fikri,Aiman,Zul,Apan,Din and Shidie are actually nice eventhough they look intimidating when they walk in groups(xD).They're also not the "Oh you're from Sarawak so you live in a forest right?" kind of people.Infact,most of the people at Uitm,Machang arent those type of people.Most of them go to Sarawak during the holidays.They even know Dayang Salhah's Cake House(which I dont know where in God's name it is located)

I also decided to join C.U.T.E.(Cultured Unit Theatre Club)/Performing Arts Club under the Dancing.Finally,a place where I can just be myself and dance my butts off without people judging me.I was kinda surprised when a few of the seniors applaused when I entered the cafe the day after my performance thanks to the workers!Even the seniors in I-Techqs(club for Diploma in Statistic student) praised about my dancing.(K enough bout me)

Thanks to my friends especially Nisah,Apan,Izzad and Aiman for helpingme during finals.Before this,I HATED Financial Accounting.But thanks to those people,Alhamdulillah I could do the finals with ease.

All in all, studying in Kelantan isnt so bad.Theres alot of nice people,lots of cars that you can rent and go to Jeram,KB Mall etc.Oh yea,the food in Kelantan is mighty cheap :)
