Doreen is like a little sister to me. She is never deprived of attention any of us among our group of friends. In a way, she is the one who receives the most concern and love, even among our course mates and lecturers. I think this is because she portrays a certain attitude towards her life and study: she is dedicated. Although she may face difficulties in times, she is never afraid of seeking help. Her willingness to ask and seek support is a virtue itself. Through this, she managed to improve in leaps and bounds in her studies. She is a humble person who is willing to learn from others. Nevertheless, she is never defeated by inferiority. Therefore, I can see her transformation from first year till now, she has been improving herself along the days and become a better person.
First striking me as quite timid, maybe because she has flown here to Penang far away from her hometown, Sibu, Sarawak; she is a person with strong religious grounds and optimistic views. I am very impressed that she always applies the teachings of her religious into her daily life. She is a lovable person with a great heart. Not only she loves and cares for us friends, she portrays deep love towards her family. Whenever we go shopping, she will always have her family in mind. She bought clothes for her two younger siblings, and sometimes some rare brands that could only found in Penang for her parents. No matter what happens, the first ranking in her heart is her family. I am very proud to have a filial friend as her, as her attitude constantly reminds me to be caring towards the ones we love.
Nevertheless, she is also a good teacher. She has a good rapport among her colleagues and students, as this is shown through her Facebook. I saw a lot of her students posting nice feedbacks about her, and praising her dedicated teaching and caring character.
Doreen had once told me her dream is to be a reputable and respectable educator, if better, a professor. I am sure she is already on the right path. All she needs is to continue the journey to where it leads her, and before long she will reach her dream. I believe in her, just like she always believes the good lies in every soul.
