Boost My Skills Through Volunterism as University Student

          If I look back 3 years ago, the old version of me would be thankful because I began my volunteer journey at 18 years old under the non-governmental organization MyFundAction. Being a v olunteer offers me many perspectives as a university student and an excellent opportunity to contribute positively to their communities from pre-schoolers age until older citizens while gaining valuable life experiences. As a University Sains Malaysia (USM) student, impactful results turn out to be revealed when I engage in mentoring, participating in environmental initiatives, and supporting youth projects.

But how come I feel lonely during the peak celebration season? ... اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ  Boom, the adrenaline rush right after the sound of Eid Takbeers  made me  realize of truth while preparing my house to welcome the guests, imagination the distant family whom I met once in a year asking where am I now and which course did I pursue... It is the same question over and over but realizing that they are actually concerned about my life is truly a blessing when they provide me with advice and their experience in life especially their study journey and their career. But most of the empty feeling is not because of the question, it is about leaving Ramadan despite our being here in Malaysia celebrating the month of gratitude while our Muslim friends in Gazan never break their "fast...
