.Z.I.R.C.O.N.






ZIRCON (a name of a diamond),

When I was offered to join FSTEP, I wondered how they people in there will be. I was expected that all of them must be intelligent, proactive, up-to-date, caliber, full of commitment, and etc. (and now I know…they are just like what I was expected). I was very excited to join the program (I’m a very new fresh graduates which just finish my course in mid May and get an offer early June…at that time I think I was blessed and yes I am…)

Before I start my class session, we were exposed to overview for the entire 4 stream. It is barely hard for me to get to know others because I’m a very shy person (am I?). After 2 weeks of overview weeks, we went into our appointed group. I’m in ZIRCON.

When the session of ice breaking took place, I realized that they are so talented person and I felt a bit down. But when I think positively, I know that I should grab this opportunity and try to share experiences and knowledges with them as much as possible. (And also I’m among those youngest ages in the class and even in FSTEP…I feel soooo young…hihihi)

For the first rotation, I was in Conventional Banking. The elder’s was held by Razif, Ikhwan, Kak Mas, Leen and Adlin. The class was fully organized and up-to-date under their concern.

Now I’m in Insurance and Takaful stream (2nd rotation and it is my favorite stream actually) and up to this point, I know better my class members.

Razif is quite quiet person but he can throw a very intelligent question when he opens his mouth (he also got the most macho voice in Zircon-please don’t be soooo excited because he already have someone special…no chance for others k).

While Helmi is much much quieter than Razif. He is the president for Insurance and Takaful and we purposely chose him because we want him to be proactive and he proved us that he can do that.
Ridzwan is the only one who had Degree in Politics. He is good in talk. I’m not surprised because he has lot of knowledges. The tip is, read newspaper everyday every part.

The only married person in the class is Leen. She had working experiences and she shared a lot of her working experiences with us.

Jenny is the only foreign graduates and she graduated from Curtin University, Perth. She also got working experiences and from my first impression she is a very serious person. But as time goes by I learnt that she is quite funny lady (of course I will notice when she made jokes, because she is sitting next to me…and she always made unbelievable jokes to me… ).

Liza also seems like a very serious person. At first I was very afraid of her and some more she is older than me, I can’t easily approach her. But just like Jenny, she is a very nice person. (She is sitting next to Jenny…)

Ikhwan came from Terengganu and had Degree in Finance. He always sleepy in the class but till now I wonder, how he can throw a question when he didn’t listen to the lecture?

Derek is the only Chinese guy in the class. His face shows seriousness but he is not. I was surprised when he first time made jokes to me. He also got same sleeping curse just like Ikhwan but also surprisingly he can answer questions given by the speaker. (maybe I should act like I’m sleeping but actually I was listening to the lecture…so I can impressed others…hehehe)

Ira, Kak Siti, Zakiyah and Dayah graduated from USIM and they sat next to each other in the class. Ira from K Kinabalu and she is a very funny girl. Kak Siti didn’t talk too much but she also know how to made jokes (now I wonder how the serious people out there can made really funny jokes). Zakiyah have a very soft voice. Her voice is soooo motherly. She can be a very patient mother (how I wish to be like her)…while Dayah is more childish. She made jokes without her intentions. We can just laugh when she started to talk. I just cannot stand when she started to open her mouth (hahahha…).

Ima also came from Terengganu and she is the only one in my class who graduated from UM. Quite shy girl but she loves went shopping with Adlin. Adlin graduated from UPM and hold Degree in Accounting. She loves to read motivational books. Dila is sitting next to Adlin and three of them love to take pictures of them. (Sometimes I did join them…hehehe)

The front row consists of Wani, Aishah, Ina, Kak Mas and Zua. They are the front liner of Zircon’s group. They are those who can count on to put their full concentration during the class.
