Once Upon a Time in MRSM Perlis....

Our dormitory



Dedicated to my friends...

A friend in need is a friend indeed? Well, some might not agree with that... anyway... It all started on one of the early days in college when an important piece of paper fell down the drain. That paper contained signatures of our senior students in that college. Though it might sound stupid, but 'freshmen' or 'freshies' were required to obtain a number signatures of senior students during our orientation period. Noor Yang and Rosniza went down that drain, despite the 'drainy' smell, to rescue that piece of paper. Yes, that paper belonged to me, who was a stranger to both of them at that time. They found me crying by the drain not knowing how to rescue that poor piece.

That was how it started, we became close and spent most of our times gossiping about arrogant seniors and hoping they would trip and have a stupid fall. Not all negative gossips though, those interesting ones included describing how handsome those senior male students were. And everybody would get excited when we had close encounters with those male seniors, the mosque was located near the male dorms, and our sincerity and faith towards our prayers in the mosque was questionable!


As a 'freshie', we were not supposed to look up whenever a senior male student crossed our path, and greet the female ones with a salam. Those things continued for about a year till those senior students graduate. Well, we had our chances too when we became senior students, 'freshies' came to us for signatures and being greeted them. Thinking of it now, that was extreme disciplinary measures, unsure whether those systems will work now though.

Back to the friendship formation, I later introduced Hasniza into the group, a hometown friend. Noor Yang gained her popularity as a debator, and later introduced Aida, also a debator, to complete the circle. 5 of us became best of friends through our college lives.

Now all of us is leading our own interesting life. I don't wish to write more...as we know our stories well...Just to let all of you know..I was lucky to have all of you as 'True Friends'.
