Living on My Own Series: Room Hunting

 I'm awake a bit. Haha. 

Today I finally put in the deposit for the room I wanted to rent, my home for 1 year In Sha Allah. From contacting a list of people of Facebook, Mudah & Telegram to making a comparison list to visiting the rooms.

At first, I tried to contact the number I found on Mudah. Then I found the nearest apartment to my work place. A walking distance one! Alhamdulillah. So I searched up rooms available at the apartment. I had a list of 9 numbers. Then narrowed down to 5. All has it pros and cons though I was bit biased to one. 

I made a list as below! Room number 1 was attractive due to space and luxury feel though it's more expensive while 2 was attractive because of the chance of decorating my space as well as the lower rent but of course smaller space.

I went to visit room 1 (C) and 3 (A) last Sunday. Room 1 was definitely the most expensive feel while 3 has the school dorm feel which was unattractive to me. Of course, I check the lights, the water pressure, the vibes, people and all. 

I went again on Monday night visit room 6 (B), 2 (D) and 9 (F). Room 6 was well furnished but expensive to me due to 2 months depo and the tenant was more than room 2. Room 2 lack a bit in some terms but I'm willing to compromise. A bonus point is that the housemate of room 2 looks concern about her aurat more than the other homes. While room 9 definitely gave me a mini heart attack. At first it is not attractive much due to 3 ppl sharing the master bedroom and a single closet for all three. But the place was a mess. The tenants were nice and talkative but I don't think I'm comfortable with the shorts shorts or the joke about virginity. 

Anyhow, after consideration about furniture and discussion with the house manager, I set my heart of room 2 (D). I did istikharah as well. Hope it serves as a great new home and start for me.

Note: 1 month depo, maintanence fee, surat aku janji, rent payment before 10 hb and receipts

Now for furniture hunt (shopping!).  And I still way back on studying. Hope I can do well. Aamiin.

Shopping. Ugh.

Jeng jengg. PRP Placement day!

My first class I've taught & it's online!

So today I finally started teaching (on the 4th day of work). I'm actually rather sleepy but Idk why I browsing my phone, delaying my time instead of immediately writing. Anyway, I didn't prepare much because I just want to get to know the students. But I did prepare a backdrop and intro music.

The first class definitely left me miserable due to the lack of enthusiasm of the students. Ugh. I'm such a spoilt teacher aren't I. Anyhow, at least there 2 students in. One was non-verbal (or simply prefer not to talk) but still sweet and the other looks like he doesn't want be there. Poor thing. The session ended after 20 minutes. And I forgot to take picture for proof. 

I felt a bit discourage but I talk to A, and she mentioned about my profile pic which is so sweet I might keep the profile pic. Thank you, A!

The second class was definitely a million times better. Husna was such a sweetheart and smart. She kept on the time and knows the alphabet. I did plan to have a short class but it definitely ended in an hour because of her. Of course like I expected she had a short attention span but I managed to get her together by letting her play some songs for the class. Hafiz is another sweetheart. He definitely is quite smart by able to repeat everything in his own way. His mom is angel, helping her child with the class. 

Just by 2 class, I learn much what more might these next six weeks might bring?

Bismillah,

I've passed my driving test! Alhamdulillah.

 I did my test yesterday. I did everything fairly fine but I have to says it is because Allah really ease me this. My duas were answered exactly. Now I just need to register my driving license and practice a bit more! I'm feeling a lot better with my anxiety and sore gone. 

Tomorrow I have a job interview. I haven't studied yet. Hope it goes well. Aamiin. 

Gotta go,
