Scotland 2016 trip (3) Glasgow

Image
Hi and Assalamualaikum peeps :) So, today's post is about my last stop in Scotland, which is Glasgow. This city of Glasgow means a lot for me, do you know why? It is because this city and university was supposed to be my dad's university. He was supposed to attend this university back then :) I've copied from my fb post, I got no time to think about new words and sentence for my blog :P GLASGOW Yesterday was my last stop for this Scotland trip and all I could say is that day was the most meaningful day in my life. Being emotional and happy at the same. That offer letter dated in 1982 was my dad's entrance to University of Glasgow in Civil Engineering. I thought he's bluffing when he first told me that made up to enter Glasgow University but he didn't study there :) Until when i saw thi ... s in front of my eyes, I now believe that he's telling me the truth. Hahahhahaha. Back in 1982, he didn't enter Glasgow due to financial problems even

Scotland 2016 trip (2) Ben Nevis

Hi and Assalamualaikum peeps :) For this Scotland trip, this is my day 4 in Scotland and we have rambling (Lake District) and hike (Arthur Seat). So, today is the biggest day in my life. I have double celebration. I have just found out that I passed my exam the day before and that day, I was overjoyed that I decided to hike the Ben Nevis, Fort William. BEN NEVIS, FORT WILLIAM I made up to the top of Ben Nevis :) it took me about 9 hours return. It is tough to be honest but it is even tougher to convince myself that i can make it happen. The negative thoughts of being unfit enough to hike the Ben Nevis, haunted me all this while.But i found a quote which move me forward, you need to love to do something that you hate to 😆 since that's the only way for you to challenge all your limits and capabilities. Believe it or not, my capabilities are beyond than expected. If the normal hikers take about 3.5 hours from the foothills up to the peak. I took about 4 hr 45 minutes.

Hi and Assalamualaikum peeps :) This may be looked like an ordinary trip post. Since this is for my future references, so I want it to be a motivational post instead of the usual cliché post :) This post is the #throwback of my time in Edinburgh. To be honest, I just love this cityyyy, I cannot expressed it through words because it's more beyond words can explain :) ARTHUR'S SEAT I hiked up to the peak of Arthur seat hill, the main peak of Edinburgh. It only took about 1 hour and half to reach to the top. It's maybe a piece of cake for frequent hikers out there. But as for me, it's such a high achievement. I am not a frequent gym goer nor an active jogger to be honest. It relates to my life, being a slow learner is hard, tears always rolling down. Frankly speaking, I am not a high achiever in Bristol but i am proud of what ha ... ve I achieved. It may be not high enough for others but it doesn't matter, it is the effort that counts. Working ha

Don't waste any of your parents effort to send you here to university :)
