Bits & Parts of My Life =)
was literally broke when i reached kch~ i guess only left less than rm20 in my wallet.. and before i know it.. i left barely enough for a bowl of laksa~ hahahah but hui sun was generous to treat me n eric dat morning~ my 1st bowl of laksa in months.. ah.. so contented.. eric asked me ‘how’s life?’ after he reached and i replied him ‘ ask me after i had my laksa’~ hahaha.. well life after i had my laksa is great! ahhahaha..oh, but now i’m rich! ehhehe.. jpa just deposited the money for 1st sem.. muahahaha, but bank islam is at a busy area which i would like to avoid..
it’s been almost a week now since i touched down in kch last saturday.. didnt do anything special but manage to eat n catch up with frens.. well not all but still it’s fun.. havent had my ‘kueh chap’ yet.. bt i’ve tackled choon hui’s (hopefully dat’s d correct name), foody goody, chong choon’s laksa~ yuhoo…
had a great nite wif frens last nite~ hahaha.. we were laughing non-stop.. and d car was exploded with laughters n pity me, d driver wanted to join in n laugh like mad but cant.. she gotta control herself n drive~ dat’s d bad thing bout being a driver.. sigh.. nonetheless, tried out some good food.. it’s at a place called Holiday Residence if not mistaken. the food was good but drinks not so..
despite all those happy encounters with food, i’m not feeling so well.. getting sick. damn getting sick when i’m at home is ridiculous~ my time in kch is quite short so please dont take away anymore of my precious time here..
haha finally i update my blog! i m back in kch, the land of laksa and kolo mee.. after 4months n 3weeks.. well it can be torturing when u miss driving, miss the food, miss ur bolster so much~ sigh but i shall be with this delicious food for 5weeks~ muahahah shall meet them one by one~ starting with my favourite laksa! eheheh.. been on the move since 8.30am dis morning.. took a bus ride to nilai then waited at lcct since 12.30pm till 6.15pm then i board~juz started the quest of exploring the new adventure of prof.Robert Langdon today.. but when while i’m enjoying my book, the mr beside me was enjoying his nap~ snoring with lovely rythm.. hmm.. it’s quite annoying.. didnt manage to read much.
it’s quite fast if u look back.. 1st sem is over~ but d days were not easy.. full of challenges, especially challenges my sleeping time~ from normal 10pm or 11pm rolling on the bed in dreamland stretch till 3am or 4am in mamak stall tearing my roti planta.. hmm from no dark circles n eyebags till it’s a permanent features on my face.. frm being attentive to dozing off during lecture.. from lending coursemate notes to borrowing coursemates’ notes~ sigh… quite pathetic ehh.. but thanx to these experiences, now then i know my potential of enduring these different situations.. of course, fond memories will always be there.. those jokes n laughters at mamak stall.. those moments checking the level of severity of my dark circles n eyebags in front of the mirror.. those moments fighting back the desire to sleep in lectures.. especially during dr.kalai’s lecture~ =.=”
had fun learning to play tennis.. it’s a lovely sport. but still need lots n lots of practising till i can play properly~ hahaha.. n of coz EDSG. really really great n glad to meet those members, bro.bc, sis.sc especially~ two fun fun fun ppl.. plus kind loving jovial easy-going.. ehehhehe..
last but not least my commates n coursemates~ crazy ppl.. haahhaha..
but i do not enjoy the food lor~ now i really get wat ray means by no life! there’s no good food in campus! argh~~~~how can they torture us like this? without good food, our brain will not function properly.. dis will directly affect our performance in class.. heheheeehee..
cant wait for my 1st bowl of laksa in months! ehhe… anyone wana join? =)
last few days joined sukem, an inter-hostel sports competition~ train once then went for the competition d. were in basketball team for my college.. in the end we got bronze. i guess it depends alot on luck, all the way till semi final, the opponents we got were quite easy.. well in semi final, bump into the champion, kuo.. got beaten badly.. but it’s a good feeling at the end of the competition. it’s been so so long since i last taste the feeling of being involve in a sports competition. why do i say so? for me, sports can be stress releasing activity coz when i play, all my mind think about is how to play better, beat the opponents and win if possible.. no matter how much problems i face, they all juz disappear.. at least when i was playing. no matter how much body pain i’ll get later on, it’s still worth it! x)n i tot my stamina would be very bad coz didnt play sports or jog for a long long time. but it turn out quite ok~ haha.. unexpected. however, it’s still not enough.. still get tired after 2 7min quarters.. =.=”’
finally college mid autumn fest celebration is over, the burden on my shoulders can finally be put down. i cant say how much i learn from this activity and from the post i was holding, all can i say is i’m glad it’s over~ i’m sure the experience will come in handy when i need it. =) the most positive things i got from this activity is the stronger bonds between friends.. n the way to go the mamak stall~ muahahaha, have been having supper averagely around 2am. n of coz during supper there’s lots of gossips.. hehe, but it’s fun! but i’ve got dark circles n eye bag now.. don’t know how long will it take to disappear~ sob..sob.. n from this activity also i know lots of ppl, should i say i know more friends and know more about certain ppl.. know who are on the good side and who are just pretending to be good~ it’s alrite if u point ur gun to me but not my frens k.. u’ll be sorry if u hurt them.. anyway, it’s over so hope i wont haf to deal with u anymore~xp
9days of holidays.. spent 3days 2nights at genting.. for the retreat. learn lots of stuff though some concepts are still hard to grasp, will try to understand it little by little.. the feeling of close to nature, away from the buzz n hustle of uni life, it’s juz great~ wat a timely break! especially with the pressure forever building about pt.. but it’s all going to end soon. afta pt, i’ll seriously haf a rest and return to the arms of books.. still there’s only 3more weeks of lectures till study week. meaning only 1month left till final is here. so after genting, went back to ukm and rested for a day. the next day was a trip to One Utama. wow, the bus ride there was for an hour excluding the 45 min ride from ukm to kl sentral by komuter. anyway, it’s worth it as huisun, huihong and me had a shopoing spree.. eheheh.. but the problem of being in such a gigantic mall is that we tent to loss our direction.. hahahaha.. we used more than half an hour to search for padini authentics. as it was located on the other wing, we ventured too far into the ‘rainforest’ area.. muahahhaa.. the next day, went to sg.wang for shopping again but wif CK. going there to buy pt presents. quite satisfied with ourselves. hahah.. it’s going to end soon for the holidays.. sigh.. hope everyone enjoyed their holidays..
P.S. sorry to zakil and akasyah, cant join ur open house.. i’ve never missed it before.. anyway, selamat hari raya to all~
no more late nite meetings~yuhoo! been involved in college’s mid-autumn fest celebration and i was given the very important job that is program.. never realise things can be so complicated when dealing with programs.. of coz, my inexperience brought me lots of questions n critics.. should have plan my stuff more properly! las nite was the last meeting for mid-autumn fest celebration.. almost all the exco went out for supper las nite or more accurately, 2am today! i guess everyone felt relieved! congratulations to everyone, we’ve hang on n now we should move on~ make the celebration a celebration that will bring good memories to those who join! jia you to everyone! that was the most stressful days of my life! n now my bedtime had shift from 11pm to 3am~ hahaha. glad it’s going to be over soon!
two hours ago, life sciences fac nite juz ended,, it’s not something very grand but siao hua liked it.. she enjoyed it very much.. becoz of my presence..ehhehe.. nolah.. we all enjoyed it.. we frm microbiology n genetic combine to perform a sketch which the script written in a day, less than 10hours to practise.. in the end, we still manage to perform something quite funny.. glad dat the others like the sketch.. although some of the funny thing we include were quite cold.. siao hua commented she like d sketch very much.. hahaha.. we didnt get best group performances, to the disappoinment of many,, especially sharon.. ahaha.. but i guess ppl will remember our performance thanx to the ’shan ge’,.. hehehehehee..
some update on my life.. recently had a mid sem of microbiology.. which is super duper hard.. though it’s all objective.. i still THINK it was very difficult. hmm.. recently been busy.. lacking of sleep.. more n more like a panda.. sigh sigh..
good luck to all in mid sem n haf more sleep. good nite siao hua.good nite shi tian.
lately i’ve not been getting enough sleep, as you all should know dat i love sleeping! thus, deprived me of sleep is a real cruel n torturing thing to me.. so if any of you wana torture me, you’ll know what to do.. for these few nites, a compilation of ‘lab report+revision for the hardest subject+meetings+meetings+meetings+nothing but meetings’ haf left me only averagely 4-5hours of sleep.. i know to some of you, 4-5hours of sleep is normal but not to me.. so have been in a sleepy mode.. jing had warned me, relax time in uni is non-existent though i’ve tasted it for only 6-7weeks only.. after this, more of sleepless nite n sleepy days will come.. ray used to say this phrase ‘no life’ back in form6.. now i know what no life means.. it’s literally no life..24hours a day, i guess not many of uni students get to enjoy doing their own stuff.. doing things dat they really love doing.. luckily, i still haf my laptop with me, i can at least go online, update myself though trying to connect to internet will take me more than half an hour..
there’s been rumours saying that ukm is going to close down due to h1n1 but those were juz rumours being rumours.. nothing solid. and our dear VC had announce through her facebook that it’s unlikely to happen.. thus those who wish to have a one week break, had their dreams shattered!
mid sem exam started, so had one paper already, still have 3 more to come. last nite’s exam was postponed to everyone’s delight.. now we’ll have another week to prepare the ‘hardest’ subject! sigh if it wasnt for this stupid test, i could have met joc. wont be meeting her anymore anytime in the near future as she’s flying back to UK soon., it’s ok, technology is there to help. skype is the way! hehehe..
k, dat’s all for now.. got to rush back for meeting again~~ boooooooo..
P.S. though sleepless nites is hard to bear, i’m still very healthy and alive! so dont worry..
las nite had a performance with the edsg members. although we only practised for less than 5times, sis siew choo said we did not bad. haha so i think the important thing is that we enjoyed what we done.. that nite we all crashed at sis siew choo’s house.. although it was unplanned.. according to plan, we were supose to be sleeping at sis yin ching’s house.. anyway stil thank sis yin ching alot for bringing us to hilltop.
this morning, went to usj2 for laksa sarawak. heard hui sun mentioned it that it is quite authentic. hehe.. so coincidently sis siew choo is staying at usj2 then we went to the cafe wif the laksa shop for breakfast.. of coz.. me n sui chien, the swak gang ordered swak laksa.. when the laksa was served, we immediately know that IT IS LAKSA SARAWAK!! haha.. it smelled so so nice.. at last, my cravings for laksa swak was satisfied! muahahahaha… ok.. it doesnt taste as delicious as foody goody’s or chang choon one.. but still.. it’s the only stall selling quite authentic laksa sarawak. the gravy was not as thick.. probably coz it’s hard to get the laksa paste here.. anyway, still thankful i get to taste laksa.. hehe. after laksa, we went to pc fair at klcc.. we were quite lucky to have found a parking space in less than 15minutes.. but the stupid worker try to stop us from parking because they were charging for rm15 for a parking lot.. this is cut throat price.. in the end.. we stil parked our car there n was glad to find it unscratched.. haha.. ok pc fair was sure to see lots of ppl going there.. but luckily they have it in klcc, the aircon was perfect n cool.. n most importantly i think some of the halls are carpeted so it’s a leisure to walk n stroll around.. i was targeting to get a logitect mouse, a pendrive n a cooler pad. bought the 1st 2 items on the shopping list but couldt find a suitable cooler pad.. was hoping to get the brand coolermaster but couldnt find it anywhere.. although h1n1 is raiding our country fast but i think only less than 20ppl out of hundreds wore a facemask.. so i guess the public is not panicked..
after dat, we come back to ukm using komuter but the service was delayed twice.. so all the passengers was desperate to get into the train.. causing jam at the entrance.. not letting passengers alight 1st.. saw 1 ahma was being squeezed n pushed backwards while trying to get off.. then we all tried our best to squeezed into the narrow train too.. for the next few stops, passengers were blocked from getting out as the passengers waiting at the platforms were pushing n rushing in once the door slide opened.. sigh.. courtesy is non-existence in malaysians’ mind.. of coz not all.. but the proportion is too little.
will have mid term exams soon. the earliest will be on 14/8.. heard from seniors that fundamentals of microb is a very hard course to score! well must always try our best.. k.. all the best to all in ur mid term!
been adapting to campus life.. one thing i don like is to wait for bus to move around in campus.. i don mind using the bus if they r punctual n drive carefully.. there’s quite alot of bumps here ob the road but some of the drivers are so ignorant.. they don slow down when approaching the bumps n with students squeeze like sardins in the bus.. it’s dangerous for us.. n 10f the bus nerly bump into a sedan car.. n i was 1 of the few standing juz bsid d driver n d sudden break makes a few of us fall n stacked like wwf style.. luckily noone hit d front mirror.. another weird thing is that the buses don stop at every station.. even when someone wave.. this happen to me twice whereby i’m clearly waiting at a legal bus stop, n i wave to stop a bus but they juz ignore me.. this is ridiculous.. the drivers choose stations that they like to stop.. if the bus is full then i had nothing to complain about but the bus that i waved at was clearly not full.. sigh..
other than that.. lectures are alright.. my lecturers are all good and kind.. except 1 that is kinda weird.. after the meeting with my mentor on thurs.. was inspired to study.. she made me realised that if i don’t start studying now.. i’ll never catch up. let alone achieving high pointer. quote her ‘ if u bring ur stupid style of studying in school to uni.. the most u can score is 2.8′ hahaha.. had a shock.. she said that when the lecturers say read a certain topic.. we must read that topic.. if a topic is not covered in the lecture.. it doesnt mean that that topic is not important.. it’s juz that lecturers feels that students will be able to understand by themselves without having to go through it by the lecturer.. so sat afternoon, i took out campbell bio book to study.. and i really was blur was have the teacher been teaching.. apparently listening to lectures only is not enough.. there’s really still alot of stuff i didnt know until i read the book.. so ppl.. study regularly.. i will also try my best to study hard.. hopefully i can cope with 23credit hours for the 1st sem, including 3credit hours for ko-k..
orientation week or better known as Minggu Mesra Pelajar (MMP) in ukm, ended las week.. well i guess most orientation week is tiring.. everyone sleeps late and sleeps less.. facilitators may only sleep 1hour a day.. n us averagely 3hours a day.. for this whole week, if i’m not mistaken, i only slept for 17hours total, which at home, i can easily achieve that mark within 48hours.. hahahha.. but thanx to the facis.. we new birds in uni have a place to hang around, have someone to answer our questions.. maybe stupid questions. we would be very lost without their guidance. thus i would like to thank them for all they had done and sacrificed for us. spurring me to become a faci like them nex year, but thinking bout the sleepless nites, i hope i could manage. tho some scoldings was bound to happen when 500+ students gather in a college managing by 70+ facillitators..and looking back i found it amazing that i could actually survived such a week with so little time for sleep..
after orientation.. we are on our own, nobody to guide us anymore.. so the registration for courses was in a mess.. keep asking n asking bout the correct ways we should do things.. in the end.. this sem, i’m taking 19credit hours, was hoping to take 22 dis sem.. however clashing of lectures cause me to drop my english class.. damn.. anyway.. there’s nothing i can do to change the time of these lectures so will just have to push the english class to next sem.. rite now.. my schedule is quite relaxing but maybe when assignments are assigned to us.. that’s when i’ll start feeling hectic.. food in college is average.. with average price but kl food is too salty to me.. eventhough i’m used to eating salty food, still it’s too salty for me.. so i really miss kch food, especially my lovely laksa.. sob.. will haf to wait til november then i can taste the delicous laksa again, meaning i’m not going back to kch during the hari raya holidays.. will stay in west msia.. so hopefully i’ll haf some programmes during that week if not i’ll just stay in my room n fermentate.. hhehee.. was lucky i got a good roomate.. who is honest n clean.. a gal from perak, ipoh but went home for this weekend..
so that’s some updates on my life here in ukm..
