1. Describe yourself.
Confrontal, straight-forward, stubborn yet persistent, quick healer.
2. What's the best thing that you've done for yourself?
Rewarding myself with a pesto sauced pasta after hours of studying.
3. What was the best phase in your life?
It's actually both best and worst phase -2015. When I finally am brave enough to speak out for myself and gain so much confidence I've kept during my MRSM years into my university life. It is also the worst because I felt like my personality couldn't seem to fit in perfectly anywhere.
Rationality. I have a lot of dreams, but expectations and responsibilities are what I'm currently growing up with -and that's a lot to take.
5. Are you living in the past or present?
Present, of course.
6. Does commitment scare you?
It depends on the people I'm dealing with really.
7. Do you hold grudges or believe in forgiveness?
There is a fine line between respecting yourself by giving them what they deserve with just simply not giving a care. But if their mistakes no longer concerns me, I forgive.
8. Are the books on the shelf being read?
Yes! Even though it has gradually shifted from fairytale fantasies and fictional storylines of youngsters to scientific studies of human evolution and genes.
9. Who inspires you most?
My late grandmother, Wan Habsah binti Wan Ismail. A living example that you can be everything -kind-hearted, a master in bakery and cooking, geographically knowledgeable and excellent in arts, a storyteller, a good wife, mother and grandmother.
10. What are your biggest strengths?
I can manage to get back on my feet, every time. Somehow, in my mind has this positive energy that sends a reminder through my veins saying everything will be okay.
11. What are the 3 most valuable things in your life?
Having people I love around me, experiences being near a beautiful untouched land and being true to yourself.
12. What are the bad habits you want to break?
Fear of adult tasks -signing papers, settling a blocked debit card, going to customer service, etc. Being expected to be good at all this without guidance, it strays me away from wanting to deal with it.
13. What are you pretending to not know?
That some girls just don't seem to like me being myself.
14. Based on your daily routines and actions, where can you expect to be in 5 years?
Going through my way in PhD on neuroscience in the U.K, demonstrating the specific images of the brain related with decision making and it's formation growth in children. Applying a job as a lecturer, giving educational talks in Tedx and creating savings to stay abroad somewhere either in New Zealand or the U.K.
15. What do you wish to learn?
Understanding mental disorders with empathy -I know the symptoms and the people diagnosed with it, but I can't grasp how it would eventually feel like.
