#5 The one in Manchester, England + Benefits of studying abroad


Part of the prestigious Russell Group of universities, The University of Manchester is the largest single-site university in the UK, with the biggest global student enrollment -My best friend Wikipedia-
Well, on my previous post, I have told you about my sister. Well, I forgot to inform you that she received her degree in the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. Go here to seek chances in her amazing university!

And, it would be very bitter to not have a post about my brother.
Well, here is a tribute to the Most-Annoying-Brother-In-The-World

Name: Khairul Amin
Age: 19 (in 2017)
Status: Owned 😛 (Sorry to the girls out there)
Studies: SK Setiawangsa
              MRSM Tun Abdul Razak
              Kolej MARA Banting
              The University Of Manchester

He went to Manchester during last August.- And guess what, I was  not able to send him to the airport because I have  to sit for an annoying standardised exam! 😢

Everybody knows that if you've got a brother, you're going to fight. -Liam Gallagher-
LOL. I totally agree with Liam Gallagher!

So, what's so special about Manchester that he would travel 10, 633 km ALL the way from Kuala Lumpur, whilst there are a lot of universities in Malaysia that have just the same reputation and ranks and fields!

This House Believes That Studying Abroad Does More Harm Than Good To Minors 
That was one of the debate motions that i have done before -can't remember when, but somewhere at school. See what other people thinks about it here :)

At a glance, i would say YES to studying abroad....
I mean, just imagine all of the BENEFITS that you're gonna earn if you study abroad::


  • 1 - Experience personal growth. ...
You'll be able to live more faithfully without seeing your parents that frequently. You'll be able to prepare yourself in being INDEPENDENT towards yourself. 

  • 2 - Gain valuable life skills. ...
Example of the skills are; Skills on how to manage your financial account on shopping with a whole new currencies- i mean, British Pound equals to 
5.47 Malaysian Ringgit.  Imagine buying a bottle of mineral for ₤2 which literally equals to ≈ RM 10.95 FOR  A BOTTLE OF MINERAL WATER!!!!

  • 3 - Strengthen leadership skills. ...
Okay, i don't really agree with this,, because to me, minor people must have felt so intimidated, humble and scared to show off their leadership skills especially at someone else's country!!! So, how do you actually strengthen your leadership skills? Maybe, for someone who really have a lot of determination and confidence, can really excel in this 😄

  • 4 - Broaden your worldview. ...
YES! I would totally agree with this,,, even though i have not yet reached the age to go to colleges or universities i could already agree with this statement when i went travelling abroad. Its the people that actually shows this. Whether the worldviews on cultures, Islamophobia, Ethics, etc. Being an open minded person is very crucial. So, that when you will start working, you would have a wider perspective on other people 😜

  • 5 - Advance your career.
Have you ever heard about the issue of Graduates keeps on being unemployed? Its basically not because they don't deserve those positions, but its because there is just no PLACE for them 😢 But, to me studying abroad just gives you an extra merit points, maybe because it is just another prestigious universities or because it is that you have went through a LOT of challenges in life while you were studying. Endurance. 

But, to me there is nothing wrong in studying in your country. They still have the same certificates, and approval. Its just how YOU treat studying would differ.
