We LEARNT, We SNAP, We LAUGH...

On Jun 2007, I'm started my new life, new place, and new friends. Hoping that i would ran away from 'school life' like learn things that I hate the most.

So, the story begins on June 17 2007 registration day at IKIP INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE. And I'm taking Diploma In Journalism. I really don't know what did i felt on that day. Happy, sad, tears? Maybe all of them.

Carried all my luggage and went to the hostel. Casa Perindu (what a horrible name). But we used to call it SPS.

The KURSUS PERSEDIAAN DIPLOMA. I think that most of them hate it. Met new friends, but we have been treated like kids, almost like kindergarten. And the worst part is The Miserable Orientation.

I just had the most miserable days. Considering I’m only 17 years of age, yes, this is the most miserable, odd, pukable meals I’ve ever had. They served spooky bread with sauce and sugar, freaky nasi goreng, and hot air sirap when the sun is almost at the top of your head!

I miss my home.. my blanket..

Horrible. Terrible. Mean. We have to rolled over the field after having dinner. Imagine that. Wiping mud over our face. SUCKS. Thank god finally its over.

CLASS BEGIN!

First lesson was Effective Writing Skills at R5, hah! can't believe I remember that. Like always, introduce our self bla..bla.. bla.. Met my classmates, almost 30 of them. But now... ah...



Greet our course lecturer, Pn Norzimah Kasran, Pn Amy Rashidah, En Ezuan Hadi.

Plenty experiences, weird friends, variety attitudes.. Hah.. teenagers.
And guess what, I've got my new name! BARAT! haha who gave that? I can't remember lah. No one got that name except me. Starting from that people called me BARAT.

"Hey Barat buat ape?" "Barat,jom!" "Barat dah study quiz esok?"

I have to get use to it. Everyone got butterfly in their stomach during Public speaking final presentation. As well as me. Tapi mampu bertenang jugak. Because we are special!



For my first semester, I've got 2.5+ for my CGPA. Banyak main kot, or maybe this is the first one, our first experience.

SEMESTER TWO!

Everybody seems to have their own cliques. That was normal. But I have some problems on that semester. And I won't tell you guys. So depressed! But I'd survived anyway! It's me.. Hey! We got a new lecturer. Pn Norafizah Abd Karim. She gave a lecture on Translation. Pointer? hm.. 3.++





SEMESTER THREE!

Learnt new things that I really want to know since I'm dying to be a reporter. Interviewing Skills, Editing, Writing for Tv. Fascinating!

Shooting.. like real broadcast journalist i guess. Everyone has their own style. Like Malaysia Hari Ini, 999, Segmen Terjah, Buletin Utama, Scoreboard.. Me? Michelle Wee, Melodi. Haha! My story is about my favorite actress, Fazura who free from her charged on injured a housewife at the pub. Shieda being Fazura. Thanks. Sarah got her nightmare when Wan ***** ... ooppps. Guys, you know that right. Hahahah!





The best part is my Interviewing Skills's assignment. We have to interview prominence person to sharp our skills, to get exposed in the real interview session. So, we have choosed HUNNY MADU. A Dj from FLY fm. Setup the appointment. Done! Sri Pentas, 5pm.



Get with it. Finished my 3rd semester. 3.++

SEMESTER FOUR!

So we thought this is tough for us to face! Because we're taken Photo Communication which is we have to buy DSLR camera. Oh dear, so expensive ok! And we've picked NIKON D60 almost RM21++. Print out the assignments, photos. Oh.. We can hear the money fall down like Victoria Waterfall.

So we went for outing to snap some pics, some techniques to apply.






Besides, my favorite subject, Publication Design. I don't know why I'd love this. Maybe because of the teaching method. Hey! seems I've been forgotten of one thing! I've established this boring blog on semester four. Thanks madam.

Blog. We should never forget that guys. Censorship. You know lah what happened kan?. And the best thing in this semester is my pointer! 3.89 well done.

SEMESTER FIVE

It seems like toughest semester we've ever been. Our paper work has been rejected, organized the last minute seminar. Interview, money, lecturer, assignmentsss. Everything is there.

And once again, we've got our new lecturer En.Pirdaus. Tersangatlah muda. We used to kacau2 him every time we met. He's cool. Welcome aboard sir.

Me, Iqee and Farah was the only senior SEM 5 yang amik ko-ko.. Everyone will like "hah? sem 5 baru nak amik koko?" or like "la, dah sem 5.."  So, we have no choiced! Futsal. If anyone ask why we are taking koko in last semester, and the answe is "Dulu kitorang busy, subject berat2 sampai 23 credit hours". Iqee and I always put a blame on Gol & Gincu. Because before that we're used to say "Jadi cheerleader boring! I should be a striker!"

Entrepreneurship! We so mad about this. Account, numbers, tables, debits and all that! Such a monster!! Just imagine what happend if a journalist has to make a pro forma cash flow statement? what the hell is that? kan? Really-really bad!

Whereas we were tried so hard to get away from numbers and business. At the end, what happened? All this things will make some people to run away and try as hard as possible not to take this subject. But we? *sigh*

Disaster! Lot of things to do. Asssignmentsss. Make me loose my appetite, migraine, I can't sleep well. Hah.. Another problems that ran through mind. "I'm sick of this!
Maybe it is more suitable to quote "We're sick of this". The most miserable week we've aver been through. Or best words to describe was HYPERTENSION.

Presentation week. The whole of DEL's students have to face it. Hey, I just realized one thing, to me.. "bukan senang nak kumpulkan semua adik beradik DEL dlm satu tempat. Dari sem 1 sampai sem 5. Tengok gelagat masing2. Kita gelak, tension, happy, nervous. Besides, we can improve our communication skills."

WHAT DO WE MISS?

Entered the class, we sat and laugh. Gossip, kutuk2, kena marah.. Great isn't it? Kita dah macam Bukan Team Biasa. Haha!


Kalau muka tengah serius tu maknanya tengah gossip!

oh coach....

Tempat yg slalu jd port utk kutuk2 student. (ignore the fake postman)

There are more bad times than good times. Tapi ape yang kita akan ingat are the good times.

"During my time kat UiTM dulu.." "Ni klau lecturer saya tgk, dia campak kat luar tau!"
"Nik, macam mane progress layout?"  "Ape headline hari ni?" "Masyaallah..." (kecik2kan mata)
"Benda awok ni?!" "Err.... whateverlah!" "Ye ker awok nih??"
"BAIK! Saya nak esok." "takde takde takde"
"Hah adik-adik mcm mne?" " siot betul!"

Don't you miss that? ikut gaya lecturer. Walaupun diorang xtau kite suka buat tu semua almost setiap hari. Tapi tu yang kita semua akan ingat. Sampai bila-bila.

AT THE END

It's just me and the DEL Buddies. They're my family now. and i really really love them. They've taught me a lot of things like you had no idea. we're a bunch of people with extremely different personalities. We have different skin colours and some were even from different attitudes. Although we have our own clique or groups

But we bonded. And our bonds are really strong. We're practically a really big happy family. a really really WEIRD family though. lol. We work together, we struggled together, we sweat and we cry together. And through these hardships we formed an unbreakable bond. Because we share everything under one roof. We share tears and laughter.



This is the most joyful moments. The moments that i should never forget. Diploma In Journalism, IKIP International College.
