My Pasport story

Assalamualaikum, hello beautiful souls!

*tried to publish this post with the picture of my pasport insert here but the server did not allowed me. who cares anyway all pasport malaysia looks the same.yeah,fine*

So as soon as i decided to do my practical 'over the sea', i asked my lecturer on the progress of it then suddenly "permohonan dana tu kena hantar esok jugak. So korang kena siapkan proposal dan buat pasport hari ni. tak tido malam la korang" On that very evening me and my friends go to UTC to get our pasport done. Yeah i know, will leave on July but why do we need to do pasport this instant right? Because on the form for appying dana UKM, there's a "pasport no." column we need to fill.

The story starts here. Rupanya untuk pemilik ic -12 dan -13 yang mau buat pasport (pertama kali sahaja) di semenanjung Malaysia, kena bawa surat beranak sekali. Okay fine. surat beranak aku sudah la ada di rumah. Sejak ada ic ni aku rasa macam surat beranak tidak perlu diusung kemana-mana lagi. Dan rupanya UTC did not offer the service to do pasport for sabahan and sarawakian (permohonan pertama kali sahaja). I was told i need to go to either Pejabat imigresen wangsa maju or pejabat imigresen jalan duta. Masa ni aku start lemah semangat sudah. Tau la orang skema kan.hahaha. So sekarang ni macam mana aku mau mohon dana sebab tiada no pasport? Lastly my lec cakap just isi "pasport sedang diusahakan". So i just jot that down and sambung stress buat proposal malam tu juga. The next day i ask my dad to post my birth certificate. btw, my friends get their pasport done within an hour. *easy*

Okay ceritanya lepas dapat surat beranak i asked for ira's favor to drive me to pejabat imigresen wangsa maju. Dah la ira pusing berapa kali untuk cari parking, bila aku masuk pejabat imigresen berita buruk be like -"dik, wangsa maju dah setahun dah tak buat pasport untuk sabah & sarawak.Adik kena pergi jalan duta ni". hmmm sudah. Ni UTC takleh move ke tak update berita setahun yang lepas. Ira pun gigih la drive pulak pergi jalan duta.Finally, Pejabat Imigresen yang ke-3! Masa mau ambil gambar pegawai imigresen tanya "umur berapa?" guess what? there was a moment of silent coz i was thinking how old i am!! In my head i am 21 years old.hahaha. I came back to my sense and answer 23 *dangg* 

Kena tunggu 5 hari waktu bekerja untuk proses the pasport sebab they need to refer to pejabat imigresen in KK. When the time comes, i went to take my pasport alone, by cab. It cost me RM30 *pergi balik* Reason to go alone : aku tidak suka menyusahkan orang. thats it. Last time terpaksa susahkan ira. Masa tu pun sebenarnya mau pergi sendiri tapi entah la kenapa macam ada firasat mintak tolong jugak ira, Rupanya kena pergi sampai 2 pejabat imigresen, Lepas bayar pasport  RM200, kena tunggu lagi another 1 hour before i can finally get this precious pasport. 1 hour became 1 hour 30 mins. Im about to get mad there but i keep calm and scroll instagram. 

Surprisingly *not* my pasport pic turned out just like in my ic. Tudiaaa dark circles on point. Only my spect can do me favor to cover these dark circles. I dont wear spect for my ic sebab the abang gambar said silau. The day at UTC my friend was not satisfied that she had to took off her spect so when we went back to college i googled imigresen official website and found out that for pasport, those wearing spect must take it off as well as those wearing fancy contact lens ; the colourful kind. Rupanya pegawai imigresen ni bukan memandai suruh buka spect.

Next--Visa. To stay at that country for more than 30 days i need to have a visa. Misi mencari pejabat kedutaan pulak lepas ni, say bye to another RM150.

Till then!

FREE MANDARIN COURSE AT AMC COLLEGE KOTA KINABALU

Hello beautiful souls! 😊 I have always wanted to learn Mandarin since I was a kid. Pengaruh cerita cina. One of the reason to be excited to enter Uni was to take Mandarin as a foreign language. Unfortunately....my university (UKM) do not offer foreign language course as we are not located in the main campus in Bangi. I studied in UKM KL campus. So in Uni, I have been only learning English 😂 Then I told myself, I'm gonna take the course in AMC college once I graduated since the duration for the course is 3 months, I didn't get to do it while studying. By the way, I went to AMC after SPM as well, that's when I learned English course before I went to Matriculation.  After graduated in 2017, I applied for the course but never been called. Last year I finally get a PIC contact number and it happened that I changed my phone number but did not update in the system. LOL. Normally, it will take at least a year before you can get in due to limited number of particip...

Penang Foodie

Hello beautiful souls 💕 Earlier this month I took a healing trip after hectic monthssss and months and months at work. I was so drained at a point that the only thing that would make me feel a little bit better was buying a flight ticket 😂 Considering a cheaper option and familiar place, I booked flight to KL.  2 weeks after I bought my BKI-KUL (return), I bought KUL-PEN. It would be bored to be in KL for the whole 1 week. So I thought it is best to go to Penang.  Why Penang? 1. Foodssss 2. The return ticket KUL-PEN was only RM 88 3. Went to Penang once at my aunt's during Raya Haji but didn't get to explore the city. Dari last year tau simpan hajat nak g Penang. Refer reason no 1. I fly solo. Didn't bring any friend from KK with me. The perks of study for my Degree in KL is I know at least someone from all state in Malaysia 😂 Syai (my UKM classmate) was the tour guide for my days in Penang as she work there.  We explore Penang with her ...

Epic sunrise experience

Hello beautiful souls 💜 2 days ago we planned to chase the sunrise, again. After the failure of the previous one -- we only chase dream in our sleep. I have always thought that hiking would have the best chance to see sunrise cause people have been doing this in the morning. But well, me being me do not want to hike for sunrise since it took up too much energy. Then we thought, going to the beach should be fine.   Sehati sejiwa, yakin this time will be our time. So we chose Tanjung Aru Beach to chase for the sunrise in this beautiful Wednesday morning. I asked Deidre to give me a wake up call at 4 a.m.  I sleep for less than 3 hours only. Even I doubt myself if I am able to wake up 😂 She. really. called. me. For a moment at 4 a.m, I stay on my bed re-thinking my decision for this super early morning trip. But then Deidre sent a follow up text saying "Please confirm if you are awake so I can go to bath in peace" Wahh this woman....
