Who am I?

Assalamualaikum :)



                  Hello readers. This post will be all about myself. I will tell you almost everything. Almost. First and foremost, we will start by my name. My full name is Nurul Shafiqah Binti Md. Zaidi. People have been calling me eiqa or piqa. Up to you, your choice as long as it is my name. At this point, it will be better as eiqa because in my class, we have another Syafiqah and they called her, Piqa. Well, anyway that's not important.

                       I'm from a small town named Kota Tinggi in Johor. Actually, I was born in Negeri Sembilan but I was raised in Johor. I came from a small family. Only consists of my mother, step-father and me. The story is, my biological father and mother was divorced since I was a baby. My mother married a man when i was 7 years old. Back then, I have a sister. Her name is Atiqah. Yes, we share the same name. She's the one that insist to get me a name that is similar to her. It was not long. She passed away when she was 13 years old. Quite young, right?. At that time, I was 9 years old. So, that's the last memory I had with her. Since she passed away, my mother only have me. That makes me as her one and only daughter.

                          After a few years of marriage, it turns worse. My mother had to work because my step father won't find money. She had to pay almost everything. She build her strength and get divorced with that man. She takes care of me for quite few years. From there, I know. I have to change our life. I have to study hard and make her proud of me. At the very least I can give her for now is my passion in studying. By making her proud with my achievement in education. The only least I can give her. The biggest will come. InsyaAllah. Then, she remarried a man as a second wife. Started from that I kind of understand what actually is a polygamy.

                       Enough about my family. Now, it's me. I don't really know how to interpret my ownself actually. I used to write a lot before but then I stopped to focus for SPM. I wish I could write again. So, currently I'm studying in UITM taking foundation of TESL. It's such an honor for me to have this opportunity. Besides, It comes with big responsibilities on my shoulder towards myself, my family and our future generation. I might not be a teacher someday but taking this course actually educating us how to educate people. At least I can contribute to this country with all the knowledge that I know.

                       Maybe not just being a teacher. Maybe I could inspire someone or lots of people. I don't know. It's Allah's plans. I'll just go with the flow. I believe in Allah's plans because I'm the servant. I know Allah will give me something that deserves me well. For taking my first step as being a Teslians, Thank you Allah. I hope by taking this course could create me into a character that a University actually means. Just as you said Mr. Adlan, "the reality is, there is none". As well, Thank you sir for opening my mind real wide. So now I can see the world from very different view.


With love, Shafiqah Zaidi.
