I am an alumnus of Sekolah Kebangsaan Seri Bandi in Kemaman, Terengganu. Although my school was located in a rural area, it provided me with many valuable experiences and lessons.
I began my schooling there at the age of 5 to 6 in SK Seri Bandi Preschool, and then continued my studies from Year 1 to Year 6. It was at this school that I learned many important values, such as friendship, teamwork, responsibility, appreciation, helping others, and much more.
There are so many fond memories with my classmates and teachers that are difficult to put into words. My first experience attending school without my parents is also a memory I will never forget.
After completing my primary education at SK Seri Bandi, I continued my studies at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Seri Bandi in Kemaman, Terengganu. It was here that I began to face more challenging learning experiences. Although there was considerable pressure at the time, I managed to overcome it successfully.
During my time at secondary school, I truly learned the meaning of genuine friendship. The school also provided many opportunities that allowed my potential to develop gradually, not only academically but also in terms of my interests and talents.
I completed my secondary education by sitting for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) at the age of 18 in 2023. One of the greatest challenges I faced was during Form 3, when the COVID-19 pandemic struck. This period gave me both sweet and bitter experiences that were invaluable. The joyful memories I made throughout secondary school are too many to express in words.
After completing Form 5 at Sekolah Seri Bandi, I decided to continue my studies at the STPM level at a different school, Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Badrul Alam Shah in Kemasik, Terengganu, in 2024. At that time, I was 18 years old.
I never anticipated that STPM would be so challenging and put me under considerable pressure. Although I only took four subjects, the time available to master all the topics was very limited. However, I managed to overcome these challenges with the support of my friends and teachers.
During my time at this school, I also created many fond memories as an STPM student. My talents were further nurtured through various programs I participated in and positions I held. The challenges I faced taught me to become more mature and independent.
Now, a new chapter and destiny in my life begins, as I continue my studies at Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) at the undergraduate level. In line with my dreams and aspirations to become an educator, I have chosen to pursue a Bachelor of Vocational Education (Catering) with Honours.
This phase marks a significant starting point in my life as a university student. I have begun to realize that the challenges and responsibilities I will face at this higher level will be greater. However, I see this as a golden opportunity to gain more in-depth knowledge, further develop my potential, and become increasingly mature over time.
