Press Conference: I’m not a trophy wife.

Posted on by under Daily Scribbles
I, Fazlin Farieza Yussuff, or better known as Alin, will now make a statement that I am not a trophy wife. I have never been and will never be. I was proud to be called trophy wife because I have misunderstood the term. All this while, I thought the term ‘trophy wife’ means a wife whom a husband is very proud of, who is capable of doing anything and everything under the sun or a wife who is like Bree in Desperate Housewives. However, I have read the definition of the term ‘trophy wife’ on Wikipedia, and I was shocked to discover the truth. I have never been taken as a second wife nor a third. Therefore, I will retrieve the statement I made earlier. I am NOT a trophy wife. If you have further questions, kindly post yours in the comment section and I will have them answered as soon as possible. Thank you.

p/s: Thank you to Ainee for linking me to the real definition of trophy wife.

An Academic Update.

Posted on by under Daily Scribbles

I have just finished writing 3000+ words of my dissertation. Penat sungguh. Hopefully, Tracy wont reject any of the ideas or else I have to make major changes. It is tiring when you actually succeed in writing 1/3 of your dissertation only to be told that half of it is not relevant or appropriate. It makes you feel demotivated. I felt that there is no point of writing if people keep on rejecting your work. Yes, I know, they are trying to help, to make sure that we are on the right track. But, you do get tired, don’t you? Especially when you think you can move on to a different chapter and moving away to different kind of books. Anyway, I have to stop whining. Whining doesn’t get you anywhere, kan.

Can I ask for some favour from all of you? Tell me what do you think of this.

Please, please tell me what you think. I want some opinion of others as well.

Your cooperation is highly appreciated.

Thank you.
