My November's Highlights
December 1, 2016
Inspired to write a post on month wrap up after reading Siqah's and Fatin's blog. Hehe, bloggers do help each other for inspiration :D
November.
It is honestly a month of my almost full recovery. I had a very hard time the whole October, losing appetite, losing weight (which is good on one side), losing feeling of emotion. I just didn't feel like I was being myself. But, being moody most of times is just not me, still I can be moody too. I don't like to share my sadness and downside to public. Sometimes I do mention bits here and there on my blog. But, usually I will keep it safe in my heart and wash it away.
1/11/16 - Obstetrics & Gynecology Exam.
1. I started my November with one final exam. Obstetrics & Gynecology. I love this specialty a lot, but I am still thinking hard to pursue more on this or not. Didn't exposed much on O&G department in Malaysia but most seniors said it is one of the most emotional ward in the hospital.
 |
| With the lectures a.k.a examiners. |
2. All of us passed, alhamdulillah :) We celebrated in by having lunch together at Pasta Cook & Look. The funny thing was when these boys mentioned Cook & Look to me, I totally had no idea that it is actually a name of restaurant. They kept on alternating the words, look & cook, cook & look. Haha the non-Malaysian guy in the picture below is Luke, I seriously thought Luke wanna cook for us. :p
If you get what I mean.
 |
| The pasta was good! |
3/11/16 - Hiking on a Snowy Mountain.
3. :) After few times contemplating of going for this long journey, finally I managed to step very close to the highest mountain in Czech (update - I made a mistake here, actually it is the highest waterfall in Czech T_T) and witness myself the source of Labe river.
4. That hiking trip marked the highest total daily steps in November with 43435 steps.
 |
| Sunset. |
4/11/16 - Wall Climbing!
5. I planned this with Kevin for our September's activity, but due to my carpal tunnel syndrome and I headed back to Malaysia, we postponed it to early November. Surprisingly, it was not that expensive to rent all equipments :p I should try it again after I fully recover from this carpal tunnel thing. T_T
 |
| All black. |
5/11/16 - Road Trip to Hallstatt
6. To know and be friend with these girls is one of the best thing that Allah bless me with. I must be grateful to have them in my life through thick and thin living abroad.
 |
| Us. |
9/11/16 - First Snow in HK (for this term).
7. I think that was the exact day. Haha.
 |
| Ice ice ice. |
12/11/16 - Newest Shopping Mall in HK.
8. It was opened on Friday, 11/11/16 and I supposed to join the rest of us to its first opening day. But, there's something wrong with my tummy that day, I missed the girls hang out. T_T
9. The highlights of this new mall is Costa Coffee and Running Sushi (both are firsts in HK)
10. Now, to the right of my flat is the new mall, Aupark. Meanwhile, to the left is Tesco & Atrium mall. Hahaha, make my choice. Both are just within 5 minutes walking distance!
 |
| Found this in one of the shop. Why Czech translated almost all English books?! |
14/11/16 - Supermoon.
11. Well, it was not that obvious in the shot. :)
 |
| Big enough? |
19/11/16 - Outing in Prague.
12. The main reason was Lush. :D We received quite a lot of orders for newbies like Maryam and I, it was fun anyway to buy all these items even though they were not for us. Stepping into Lush is one of therapy you should try.
 |
| That smell. :D |
13. Done with Lush, Maryam and I went to have dinner with our juniors in Prague for our weekly halaqah. Yes, we gathered in a Korean restaurant, read Quran together, shared our weekly journey. :)
14. There are so many things we can extract from others' experiences of the day.
 |
| Kimchi bibimbap. |
20/11/16 - Train to Busan.
15. It was my first time watching it and I could not stop screaming for every thrilling scene!
 |
| Dinner on bed. |
21/11/16 - Electromyogram (EMG) Visit.
16. Some of you might know that I have carpal tunnel syndrome and it doesn't go away yet. I am currently living with it and most of times, I forget I actually have this thing.
17. After 2 months of being on waiting list, finally I got my appointment date for EMG. Roughly, EMG is about a test to check your nerve and muscle functions, so referring to the results, the doctor will decide if you need surgery to cut open the tight canal that may compress the nerve or not.
 |
| Appointment card. |
18. The doctor on duty was so enthusiastic about Malaysia, he kept asking about interesting places in out country. :p
19. In my case, my carpal tunnel syndrome is very mild, I hope it will be relieved by medications only.
22/11/16 - On The Way To The Airport.
20. Since my flight was on 23rd's early morning, I decided to go to Prague a day in advanced. I don't think I want to risk my life like my journey experience to Scotland one time ago. :p
21. To handle 28kgs and 15kgs luggages in the center of Prague was a thing I will never do again. Seriously it was really hard. I used to go to the airport directly from the train station. But, that time, I planned to stay in my friend's flat to catch the early bus to the airport.
22. Can you imagine to go down a very fast moving 70-100meters escalator with inclination of 45 degree? And imagine to do that with 2 heavy luggages. Hoho. I was dying.
 |
| I wish the river doesn't have that color. |
24/11/16 - Hello, Malaysia.
23. Alhamdulillah, I landed safely at KLIA. Spent the first hour at the post office to post most of Marlenka orders.
24. While waiting for the bus, a friend dropped by out of boredom so we had a little chitchat while watching planes. It was nice to know more about how the airports and planes function, well I use all of these at least few times a year.
25. Arrived Perak after 3 hours bus ride.
26. Strolling around Ipoh for few hours and we arrived home at midnight.
25/11/16 - Cousin.
27. My cousin and her family are going for umrah in few days, so my parents and I went to visit them. I love her so much, the one whom I grow up with.
26/11/16 - Road Trip to Kelantan.
28. And here I am right now and for the rest of December. :)
29. I am doing elective attachment in HUSM. Basically for me, it is just another practical lessons because I am still a student who want to be exposed to working environment in Malaysia.
30. I joined on call one night and I was totally exhausted the next day. T_T How am I going to survive?
 |
| 3am |
30. Basically for the last week of November, my life rotated between the ward, the cafe and my room. T_T Haha, my practical here is honestly more interesting in some parts than in Czech as I got to learn more medical stuffs with Malaysians' styles. Just, I am so tired everyday.
31. I am still trying to swallow the fact that Friday is a holiday.
WOW, my first month wrap up!
Hello, December :)

5 Four 'Questions' That Intrigued Me
November 30, 2016
Haha I don't know why I really want to try this tag. It is on Facebook anyway, just I don't really post on Facebook much so why not I post it here :D My blog; my space, my life although it is still open for public to read.
Four names I go by:
1. Hanis
2. Nina
3. Aman
4. Miss Abdul Mutai
When I was a child, my cousins used to call me 'Amoi' as I did look like a Chinese little girl. Haha, everything changed when I started going to school, being active with sports were totally my preference. So... that's why. Actually I am sure genetically my skin is originally dark, just it didn't show much during my childhood.
Four places I've lived:
1. Sg. Siput, Kuala Kangsar, Lenggong, Taiping; Perak
2. BBST; Selangor
3. Hradec Kralove; Czech
4. Kubang Kerian; Kelantan
I consider I live in that place when I spend at least 2 weeks there.
Four places I would love to visit:
1. Makkah + Madinah
2. Fjords in Norway
3. Paragliding site in Switzerland
4. Moscow, Russia; to start Trans-Siberian train
My wish lists. May all of them will come true, one fine day. :)
Four things I love to eat:
1. Tomyam Udang
2. Laksa
3. Potato chips
4. Chicken Chop
Honestly I don't really care about food. I mean, I love food and I love to eat. Just as long as the food is edible, I am okay with that. No special menu needed.
Four favorite drinks:
1. Plain / mineral water
2. Hot Chocolate
3. Watermelon Juice without sugar
4. Mocha (as laxative lol)
I can live without any fancy drinks as long as I have plain water. I am totally not a lover of coffee or tea but yes, I drink mocha or any caffeinated drink to increase my bowel activity. It helps anyway. -_-'
So, what about you? Share yours in the comments below :D

6 'Awkward' Moments at Ataturk Airport, Istanbul, Turkey
November 25, 2016
Yes, as some of you already know, I am in Malaysia right now. You will not see my visit from Czech Republic for a while on your blog's live.feedjit widget. :D
Gonna spend about a month doing elective in a hospital here. It's going to be hard (maybe) as I am doing alone. Pray that I can go through every single day with calmness and ease. :)
Again, this time, my homebound journey is by Turkish Airlines via Istanbul. I love this city, honestly but I don't fancy much the airport. Maybe I've set a bench mark of Dubai as my favourite airport for now (despite it's so busy as well). Even though it was my 5th time transit in this airport, I still don't have ideas what should I do here. I've been to almost every inch of public area, walk from gates to gates, I don't know what else to explore.
And the free 2 hours WiFi over a week. Hmmm. Man, I have at least 4 hours to kill here.
I landed Ataturk airport on Wednesday at noon. No security control, no passport control needed - I went straight to connecting flights. Planned to perform prayers, here was the first awkward moment for me.
Can I have that tissues, please?
I went to the ablution room, it was not that big. The first thing I did was to take the tissue from the machine, well I don't want to let my socks wet and smelly. Use tissues to wipe the feet before putting the socks on. When I was literally collecting tissues from the machine with hand sensor, I already took about 4-5 layers of tissues. Suddenly, a lady came to me and ask, 'can I have that tissues, please?'
It was seriously awkward for me.
Like, why?
Prayers time.
The frame that show list of prayer times was not working. I had no idea if Zuhur was already over or not. I didn't know should I do jamak takhir or jamak takdim. There were some lady in the prayer room as well, but they couldn't speak English.
The only thing I ask with appropriate hand gesture was...
"Zuhur..?" "Asar?..."
Awkward, but luckily she understood. She said "Zuhur. Asar no."
"I'm sorry, but your transit time is only 4 hours and half."
And I need only 30 minutes more to be eligible for free meal voucher. HAHA. I would love to persuade him to just give me the voucher, but.... it was a bit awkward.
Told ya, I was so boring that I walked around the airport with my hand luggage and backpack. Gigih sangat. Expecting to meet some Malaysians but I couldn't see any. Wow, that was weird.
Walking around too much, I suddenly feel hungry again. I didn't want to spend € 10 just for a sandwich, so I tried my luck to ask the care point for any meal voucher. At the care point, there was some argument between a passenger and a worker. Not really sure what were they arguing about but it made the rest of us to wait in a long queue. And it's getting longer until a new counter need to be opened. Haha.
So, I didn't get any voucher. And I was hungry.
I checked my backpack if I have any sweets. I totally forgot my friend prepared slices of bread with Nutella. Ya Allah, I feel so ashamed of myself T_T
Thank you Bainun :D
"But, I thought the book is only € 8?"
I went to a bookstore to see the book I've been eyeing since my previous transit. Yes, it's still there and I think I should buy it for my next 10hours' connecting flight from Istanbul to Kuala Lumpur (although I know I would sleep most of the time).
Decided to buy, I took the book to the counter. After scanning, the guy over the counter said 'the total is € 8.50" Eh eh, mana datang lagi € 0.50? "But, I thought the book is only € 8?"
At the end, she still didn't answer. Awkward silence. I just gave my card to be swiped and before leaving the store, I told her, "I'm sorry but please make sure you check the prices from time to time before putting price tags on the book"
I am so sorry to say this. But, at least answer me with something like "I am sorry but maybe there's something wrong with the system." A single sorry can soften someone's heart, remember that.
I learned from someone's experience when he accidentally payed about RM 50 for a bag from Mydin when it was actually cost RM 15!
"Eh, I thought I have one hour more?"
That's my inner thought.
Guess what, I was so nervous when I saw the flight schedules. I was supposed to be at the boarding gate about 18:05 (the flight was scheduled to take off at 19:05). At that time my phone's clock showed 17:05. Eh, why? I have one hour more, right?
Surprisingly, again I totally forgot Turkish Airlines sent emails so many times to inform me that Turkey decided not to follow daylight saving time (DST). The funny thing was, I set my phone's clock to auto-update based on the location since the day I bought it. It never failed to show the correct time. But, I think (maybe) Turkey's decision was quite sudden that the world clock didn't managed to update itself. :p
Seriously, the wall clock in Ataturk Airport showed 18:05 when it was 17:05 on my phone. T_T
What if I go to the gate at 18:05 (my phone's clock)?
Hahaha, I don't want to imagine that! Awkwardly terrifying!
So, moral here is be alert with the local time!
"Boarding completed"
The moment the cabin crew made this announcement, it simply means, they will not receive any upcoming passengers and they will close the door (from my understanding).
I was quite shocked when I heard this announcement, then I looked around inside the plane, "there's still many empty seats?"
And yes, you can imagine how empty the plane was when we literally have a row per person to lie down comfortably, conquering 2-4 seats, 2-4 pillows, 2-4 blankets, 2-4 screens for EACH of us.
Awkwardly heaven.
p/s - Have you experience any awkward moments at the airport?

New Interface of Blogger Dashboard, I Guess?
November 23, 2016
 |
| Morning, people! |
I used to have problem to spend time on Blogger dashboard on mobile, but suddenly this morning, I have no problem to scroll the reading list on my phone! I even realised there is 'something' different about Blogger interface. No very significant changes, it looks similar though.
When I search blogger.com, it directed me to this interface.
 |
| blogger.com |
On the very first page, there's no more list of blogs we own.
No more reading list on the first page.
It shows list of posts we have (either published or draft).
Okay.
So, how can we read other blogs that we follow?
 |
| blogger.com |
At the bottom of menu (above Help), we can see Reading List.
There you go.
What do you think about this new interface?
Have you received the dashboard update, anyway?
p/s - I miss Blogger Reader. Why did you take it down, Blogger? T_T

Obviously this tag is from Erin :D
I do feel we have kinda different preferences but seriously I love her ideas a lot. You know, when you get to know other people and their lifestyle, you can take few things into your life and adapt to them.
For example, maybe I don't even care about my template before but after many attachments to Erin's posts... this girl is really something. :) She managed to deliver something simple as superb ideas!
Let's get started. :)
 |
| Going to miss Czech forest. |
#1 HOW TALL ARE YOU?
I am not sure how to answer this. Every time I measure my height, it keeps changing. :p Between 158-160cm.
#2 DO YOU HAVE A HIDDEN TALENT? IF SO, WHAT?
Seriously, I took a very a long time to think about this. I even need to ask my housemate about my own talent. :p But, I think, I can mingle well with random strangers.
Is that even a talent? T_T
#3 WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST BLOG-RELATED PET PEEVE?
Auto-play musics.
#4 WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST NON-BLOG RELATED PET PEEVE?
People without OBVIOUS common senses. T_T
I know that different people have different level of common senses, depends on how they grow up, with whom they spend time the most. I once shared about my self-reflections after watching a football match and honestly I was scared to see and watch people's behaviors nowadays.
#5 WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE SONG?
I have no specific favourite songs. Prefer any ballad songs - Malay, English, Indonesian, Korean. Oh, I love almost all songs in Shahrukh Khan's movies :)
#6 WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE SOCIAL MEDIA WEBSITE?
Blog is obviously at the first rank.
I love every specific social media. Instagram is good enough to share photos, but I prefer to post photos in bulk in a blog post than spamming my Instagram timeline with many photos. Meanwhile, I love Twitter for the short and sweet news. Facebook is the best to stalk people.
What's else? That's the main media I guess.
 |
| Cycling to school with this view. |
#7 WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE WAY TO SPEND YOUR FREE TIME WHEN YOU'RE ALONE?
Hiking if the weather permits.
If it's raining, I prefer to make myself a cup of teh tarik (instant lol), stay under the duvet and do drama marathon.
Oh, I love reading random weird stuffs on the net. You can check Quora if you wanna join me :) Haha
#8 WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE JUNK FOOD?
Choki-choki, haw flakes, Oreo
Any chips (potato chips, vegetable chips) omg I love these so much that they are so hard to resist.
#9 DO YOU HAVE A PET OR PETS? IF SO, WHAT KIND AND WHAT ARE THEIR NAMES?
Used to live in the same house with Atan. But after we moved into different houses, Atan now lives with Maryam & Azila. I visit him regularly, especially if Tesco makes any promotion for Whiskas. Hihi.
 |
| Atan is a cat who behaves well when taking shower. :p |
#10 WHAT ARE YOUR NUMBER ONE FAVOURITE NONFICTION AND FICTION BOOKS?
Can I say all Hlovate's books?
I am sure that the books cannot be categorised into only non-fiction or only fiction. Because, they are too awesome to fit into both!
#11 WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE BEAUTY PRODUCT OR TOOL?
I'm still a newbie in this beauty things. I learned about Lush few years ago and I love the products after indirectly being persuaded by Maryam & Azila. :p
My favourite for now maybe Pantene shampoo & conditioner? Will try Lush shampoo soon.
#12 WHEN WERE YOU LAST EMBARRASSED? WHAT HAPPENED?
When one of my juniors tweeted about BTS.
I honestly thought she was watching some behind the scenes of any movies, apparently BTS is a K-pop group!
 |
| Haha, sorok muka. |
#13 IF YOU COULD ONLY DRINK ONE BEVERAGE (BESIDES WATER) FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Sorry.
But I think I will try hard to find any sources of water. That's it.
#14 WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE MOVIE?
When I was in primary school, I watched at least 15-minutes scenes of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai almost every single day. There was no Youtube back then, so, my siblings and I use a video tape player and fast forward the movie. Sometimes, we even left the tape in the player. T_T
#15 WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE LESSON IN SCHOOL AND WHY?
Prinsip Perakaunan / Principles of Accountancy
I have a thing for numbers. Although Maths is not a subject I scored every exams but I seriously give all out for Principles of Accountancy. The teacher was so lovable and caring, she always brought us food during classes - nasi lemak, bihun goreng, nasi beriyani. It's hard to find a teacher as cool as that.
The results for that subject, yeah everyone got A1's!
But now, I even find it hard to do simple calculation like 13+29. ;p
#16 IF YOU COULD LIVE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE?
Canada, Turkey, Australia.
If Czechians speak English as 1st language, fuh I would definitely love to stay here.
If Czechians speak English as 1st language, fuh I would definitely love to stay here.
 |
| Hi flight. :) See you. |
#17 PC OR MAC?
I would like to try MAC but for now I have no significant problems with PC. So, I'll stick to PC for the mean time.
#18 LAST ROMANTIC GESTURE FROM A CRUSH, DATE, BOY / GIRLFRIEND, SPOUSE? (OR KIND GESTURE FROM A FRIEND)
When your friend know there's something wrong with you when you think you hide it well :)
#19 FAVOURITE CELEBRITY?
Non-specific.
#20 WHAT BLOGGER DO YOU SECRETLY WANT TO BE BEST FRIENDS WITH?
Secret. ;)
Well, that's what the question ask.
Well, that's what the question ask.
#21 WHO IS YOUR BIGGEST INSPIRATION?
There are few friends who manage to perform well on other things while pursuing medicine. Yes, them - for all these young adults stuffs.
I want to be gentle, patience, high-spirited as Prophet Muhammad - it is a long way to go.

#24 ARE YOU IN EDUCATION OR DO YOU WORK?
Student and on my way to get to know business :)
#25 ONE THING YOU ARE PROUD OF.
Me. HAHA.
After reflecting myself, I keep on thanking Allah for giving all these happiness and challenges for me to be a better Nina. Shouldn't I be proud of myself for trying hard to keep holding on to Him? T_T <3
Feel free to join the tag as well. Would love to know more about you.
You can refer the original post here :)
