Entry 7 : Dealing With Roommate/Housemate Conflicts.

hello people!

this time around, i will be talking on conflict. well well well, what conflict would it be? let me make things straight. i'm gonna talk on a conflict i used to experience with my previous roommate alias housemate back in my diploma days in perlis. i started to stay outside of the college provided by UiTM when i was in my second semester. that was too early for a diploma student like me to stay outside. but, hey i like it like that. so my roommate was a same age like me. we've been living together started from my second semester until i graduated which is 5 semesters in total. we don't really had a lot of argument but we did quarrel sometimes. the problem was basically on the cleanliness of the room. i myself admit that i don't like staying in a messy place because i've been trained to make sure things are all in place and tidy. my roommate unfortunately was the opposite of that. so all i did to solve the conflict was;
  1. i try to give her some signals and clues that i wanted to room to be all clean. what i did was i will clean the place myself in front of her. sometimes i even fold her clothes.
  2. i try to slowly talk to her on what i don't like to see. 
  3. even if the second act does not works, i will stop talking to her so that she knows that i am dissatisfied with her. so she will try to ask me and fix things right.
there you go some tips i applied whenever i had some issues with my roommate/housemate. i hope it helps! thank you for reading and hope to see you again in next post. assalamualaikum..

Entry 6 : Review On Mascara.

hi and assalamualaikum, people!

my 6th entry is all about an advertisement review! wohoo.. i'm so excited. so guess what would the product be? there's just so many things i wish i could post the review on my blog but i think i'm gonna go with this fella over here.. 



tada!! have you seen the video advertisement above? yup. it's a mascara. so you must be thinking why did i choose a review on mascara right? it's simply because i wanted to do a review on it based on my very own experience of using it. yes, i've been using this mascara over here for almost 6 months i think. it is my one and only mascara that i've been using to almost any event i went to.

why did i stick to only this mascara? well firstly, it does not give you the fake clumpy and messy mascara look on your eyelashes. cool right? all it gives is a longer and curlier black eyelashes that will only make your eyes look bigger and brighter. second thing i love about this mascara is the color of it. pink is my favourite color and i find it attractive to bring along anywhere since the size of it is smaller that other mascara available on the market plus it slimmer!

despite it's not so cheap price i think it's worth it to spend some money on this cute companion over here because it's waterproof. you know how suck it is for you when you're sweating or walking under rain with mascara on right? but this lil buddy over here won't bother all those problems because it won't be affected! that would be the winning point for this mascara compared to other mascaras! so down below is the example of my eyelashes after i apply only two coats of the stated mascara.



i think i've made my point clear and that's all for now. til then! adios.

Entry 5 : A Waitress Experience.

bismillah and assalamulaikum!

what would my fifth entry all about? Mdm. Azfa assigned me with free topic. meaning that i can write almost anything i want to. so... i think i wanna go with my working experience as a waitress in one of restaurant back at my place. that was my first working experience and it wasn't as easy as ABC. working as a waitress was so tiring but at the same time i gain lots of new experiences. and that includes being patience and many other good things! wanna know more? seat back and keep on reading.

it was after i graduated my diploma i decided to find a job. i mean, a real job that can give me money. i always love the idea of getting money. i love money! well i mean, who doesnt? i spent two months at home doing nothing. at days i hang out with my friends until i drop. i find it tiring and i think i wanted to do something different. so i decided to find a job. lucky me because my friend offered me a job at his place. so i managed to get that waitress job i'm talking about just now.

it was sooooooooooooooooo tiring at the beginning. never in my life i thought that being a waitress could be that difficult. or maybe it's just me? i don't know and i don't care. the first week was extreme disaster for me. i almost wanted to give up. but i strictly told myself that i need to go on. i can't simply surrender to this. if the other girls can do this, why not me? so that's a lil bit of something i told myself during that hard time. a month has gone and it's pay time!! the part that i like the most. you know what, there's something about my payslip that can make me forget about my struggles. i think i know what, it's the money! eventhough the amount i get was nothing to boast about, but i feel so thankful and contented because my hardworks are paid off.

during working as a waitress at that particular restaurant, there are few moments that i don't think i can ever  forget. i swear to Allah, these are what i will always remember in my mind. there are sweet moments  and there's also wuuuu.. bad moments. i would love to begin with sweet moments. i get to know new friends. these fellas are younger than me but they never see me as a sister. they're funny and we always joke around. and that helps me to forget about how hard it is for me to end my working hours. next, i get to be a model. it's just a tiny lil project for my restaurant. it was a bit exciting! you  know that awkward feeling you got when there's your face wherever you go around your place. it's kinda funny. told my mom i was so ashamed and my mom told me no worry, the face doesnt look like me. i know right, mom. how cute of you. and the last part that i can never forget is when customers treated me nicely, smiled and said thank you to me. it means a lot to me back at that time.

so for the bad moments? i just wanna share one. it was during ramadhan. it's the peak hour. customers are loaded in the restaurant waiting to break their fast. theres 4 guys. i bet they're at 30s to 40s. i served them nicely and they started to play around. they talked rubbish. they're wasting my time. usually it tooks only few minutes for me to served customer. but it took longer this time. i was so tired at that moment, my mood is dropping real fast. i wish those bunch of idiots could order faster. no matter what happen i must not be mad. they're customers, i must treat them nicely. and then one of the guys started to record me. okay, that was rude. he keeps on record me. i was so sad because there's nothing i can do. i report this matter to my boss. and he came to the customers and ask them to delete the video. unfortunately the customer lied, he told my boss he did not record me. i was so upset. i cried.. yeah, that is so me. and then maybe he felt sorry for me so he showed up and delete the video in front of me. he told me the reason he records me was because i look sweet. that doesnt make any sense! 

i guess that's all for now, asslamualaikum.

Entry 4 : What Is Integrity And Ethics?

bismillah, assalamualaikum and hi people!

so today would be my 4th entry for my Personal Development's subject. as i was assigned by Mdm. Azfa, today i need to post an entry on integrity and ethics. so first of all, i would love to share with you the definition of these two words. according to google translate, integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. and second of all, ethics. it is moral principle that govern a person's behavior or the conducting of an activity. 

i believe, it's crucial for a person to have strong integrity. a person need to be honest especially in dealing with other person. what we give, we get back. it's simply shows that if a person do good, insyaAllah in return people will also do him good. this quality is the most important one especially for those who are working. as a muslim, we are responsible for the job given to us. we must take that particular job as an amanah. we are bound to fulfill it honestly. we must never corrupt! as it's consider to be bad and negative quality that must be avoided as a muslim.

to further with, i would like to talk on ethics. ethics is not really compulsary to be followed by a human. however, it's good if it is followed in certain situation. ethics can shows a good personality of a person. this is because it controls a human's behavior. for instance, when working in banking institution, a worker needs to follow the banking ethics. this is to ensure that the work process can run smoothly and the activity can be conducted accordingly. to maintain the efficiency of a bank, ethics is essential. ethics can also be applied in other situation, for example a person who have ethics is a person who always taking care of his personality, such as he sits properly during having a meal and many other behavior that can be considered to be ethical.

i guess that's all for now, til then. thank you!

Entry 3 : The Blood Relations.

hello! assalamualaikum, dear readers.

it's me again, fariha. so today i would like to write about my family and close relatives. to begin with, of course i wanted to talk about my parents. so my dad's name Jalaluddin bin Bien. he's my handsome tall daddy! he wins many people hearts because he's just too handsome. he came from an indonesian family. he is a successful educator and he received many awards for that matter. one thing that i like about him is that he can speak in many langguages. i am so impressed with him! he mastered arabic langguage the most. he is truly my idol and i love him so much!

another one of my most favourite person on earth is my mom. her name is Zainon bt Yaacob and she also a former educator. but now she's just enjoying her days at home. she used to be suck at cooking. but my mom never gave up. she is the most hardworking person i've ever met! she is an iron lady. she is good with multitasking and she can do almost anything within a short period of time. my mom is a very thrifty, but in a good way. she doesnt like the idea of buying unnecessary things. she doesnt like going out for a vacation. she is in fact different than me in many perspective. oh and she hates the idea of having cats at home or near us. she hates the cat's fur. she will go crazy even when we said we would like to pet a cat. i think my mom is cute!

my dad married my mom and they got my sister, two brothers and me! which make 4 of us siblings. my eldest sister is age 26 and she's working. she's not married yet. my sister is almost like my mom. she can do house chores pretty good. she nags a lot, which makes mom and her alike. but she likes shopping. secondly my eldest brother, he is 23 years old. also working and i think he's single. hahahaha i dont know but he'a a good brother of mine. i always ask him money when i'm desperate to have some. he used to be hardcore game lover, he read manga, he watched japanese anime and things related, i dont know. he's a bit weird compared to the rest of us. he likes to collect horror movies and novels. he can stand living alone in a dark place. lastly, my dearest younger brother. he is 20 years old and i am very close to him. he's working since graduated from SPM. he is a brave guy and have a big heart. he always help me when i'm in need. we always share secrets together. and thats why i love my family. thats all for now i guess. thanks for reading. adios!
