AXIATA Young Talent Program.

Assalamualaikum.

This was the experience I gained during the program.

Axiata YTP. Can't really believe myself as I succeeded to be one of the participant of this high prestiged scholarship program. Before, when I was filling up the form, I didn't expect that I will get the offer as I'm not very good in English. I kept thinking whether I was fit enough for the scholarship but i tried my best.

On the day, I wear a slack bottom and my ibu's shirt, a black scarf and a pair of 'kasut raya'. I stepped into the building with full of spirit. Then, the fire was gone. I looked at others. They look really smart physically and mentally. I told my ibu, "Ibu, let's go home. I don't feel well." HAHA XD

At the registration site, Imet someone with the same nama as mine. Amanda. After settling the registration, we moved to the next session.

We watched 2 videos telling us about AXIATA as not many people know about them. Some of the people thought that Axiata is and insurance country. Aigoo~ The show was quiet boring as I kept yawning a few times during the show. :P However, the video was really good as I already know who is Axiata now.

Then, there was English test. There were compositions, idioms, PH words and a few more. It was quite hard, but I still can answered them even though the time given was only 1 hour. -__-"

Then, we continued with Mathematics test. The questions were like the Additional Mathematics we learnt in form 5. LOL. I couldn't recall any formulas so, I just managed to answer the log question only.

After a good lunch, we had an IQ test. I love this test. There were all 5 sets of question. The time given was very-very-very short. 50 question in 30 seconds. Hehh. I couldn't finish the test. In this test, we must always remembered that "Speed is as important as accuracy."

As all the test had been done, we are allowed to go and back home. I was so happy as there were no interview session. The interview would be at the next stage after the Axiata group announced the students selected.

 Sorry as there is no tips given as I think I'm not good at those activities held.

May Allah help me throughthe hardships. :')

Esei MARA 2012-Bahasa Melayu dan English

Assalamualaikum.

Di sini saya ingin kongsikan esei MARA saya.

ENGLISH VERSION

My name is Ammanda Elydia Binti Ramli. I am 18 years old and currently living in Gombak, Selangor. I was the eldest and my only brother was 2 years. I lived with my mother who did not work and step-father who worked as a police. I am a former student of Sultan Mahmud Science School. I was one of the best student in school by maintaining my academic performance every year. I took French as a foreign language, and got certificates DELF A1 and DELF A2.

                In school, I was appointed as Deputy Chairman of the Librarians Board, Bureau Chief of Sports House, President of the Pergerakan Puteri Islam Malaysia, Committee member of the French Language Club and the Bureau Chief of BADAR. I have participated in various competitions at various levels such as the Marin Quiz competition FMSM Cup (winner), Summer Camp (runner-up), the National Mathematics Olympiads, National Chemistry Quiz, English Camp, SBP Innovation Competition and SBP French Culture Day (runner-up). I am also active in sports, by representing my school in the handball tournament (winner), netball (third), archery (runner-up), and athletics.

                Now, I'm waiting for any offer from any university that offers education in the medical field and also scholarships / loans from any agency. In my planning, I want to place myself under MARA loan at INTEC, UiTM Shah Alam for preparation to Jordan for four months. Then, I will pursue education in Jordan for 6 years to finish my study at degree level.

                With a degree, I will serve in any government hospital for several years and will consider to open a hospital / clinic myself. My intention to open a hospital / clinic itself is to give employment opportunities to the potential graduates in the medical field and helping people in need of a detailed treatment, especially in rural areas. . With this, I hope that all this planning will run smoothly coupled with assistance from your organization.

Thank you.

VERSI BAHASA MELAYU

Nama saya Ammanda Elydia Binti Ramli. Saya berumur 18 tahun dan  sekarang sedang menetap di Gombak, Selangor. Saya merupakan anak sulung dari 2 beradik dan adik saya berumur 2 tahun. Saya tinggal bersama ibu yang tidak bekerja dan bapa tiri yang bekerja sebagai polis.

                Di sekolah, saya pernah memegang jawatan sebagai Timbalan Pengerusi Pengawas Pusat Sumber Sekolah, Ketua Biro Rumah Sukan, Pengerusi Pergerakan Puteri Islam Malaysia, AJK Persatuan Bahasa Perancis dan Ketua Biro BADAR. Saya telah menyertai pelbagai pertandingan di pelbagai peringkat seperti pertandingan Kuiz Marin Piala FMSM (johan), Summer Camp (naib johan), Olimpiad Matematik Kebangsaan, Kuiz Kimia Kebangsaan, English Camp, Pertandingan  Inovasi SBP dan Hari Kebudayaan Bahasa Perancis (naib johan).

Maybe these essays will help you. If not for this year, maybe for the juniors next year. I wish you all the best and good luck!

Berkat Bismillah!

Assalamualaikaum.

Nak kongsi satu cerita tentang kelebihan membaca Bismillah.

* * * * * *

Ada seorang perempuan tua yang taat beragama, tetapi suaminya seorang yang fasik dan tidak mahu mengerjakan kewajipan agama dan tidak mahu berbuat kebaikan. Perempuan itu sentiasa membaca Bismillah setiap kali hendak bercakap dan setiap kali dia hendak memulakan sesuatu sentiasa didahului dengan Bismillah. Suaminya tidak suka dengan sikap isterinya dan sentiasa memperolok-olokkan isterinya. Suaminya berkata sambil mengejak, "Asyik Bismillah, Bismillah. Sekejap-sekejap Bismillah."

Isterinya tidak berkata apa-apa sebaliknya dia berdoa kepada Allah S.W.T. supaya memberikan hidayah kepada suaminya. Suatu hari suaminya berkata : "Suatu hari nanti akan aku buat kamu kecewa dengan bacaan-bacaanmu itu." Untuk membuat sesuatu yang memeranjatkan isterinya, dia memberikan wang yang banyak kepada isterinya dengan berkata, "Simpan duit ini." Isterinya mengambil duit itu dan menyimpan di tempat yang selamat, di samping itu suaminya telah melihat tempat yang disimpan oleh isterinya.

Kemudian dengan senyap-senyap suaminya itu mengambil duit tersebut dan mencampakkan beg duit ke dalam perigi di belakang rumahnya. Setelah beberapa hari kemudian suaminya itu memanggil isterinya dan berkata, "Berikan padaku wang yang aku berikan kepada engkau dahulu untuk disimpan." Kemudian isterinya pergi ke tempat dia menyimpan duit itu dan diikuti oleh suaminya dengan berhati-hati dia menghampiri tempat dia menyimpan duit itu dia membuka dengan membaca, "Bismillahirrahmanirrahiim."

Ketika itu Allah S.W.T. menghantar malaikat Jibrail A.S. untuk mengembalikan beg duit dan menyerahkan duit itu kepada suaminya kembali. Alangkah terperanjat suaminya, dia berasa bersalah dan mengaku segala perbuatannya kepada isterinya, ketika itu juga dia bertaubat dan mula mengerjakan perintah Allah, dan dia juga membaca Bismillah apabila dia hendak memulakan sesuatu kerja. 

* * * * * *

Jadi, mulai sekarang apa kata kita sama-sama amalkan mengucap Bismillah ketika hendak melakukan apa-apa sahaja? Rasnya tak susah nak amalkan kan? Diri kita ji ha yang mlas nak buat kenakan walaupun fitrah kita ni memang suka akan kebaikan.

Selamat beramal! :)
