Merry Christmas!!!

i've removed this post because i think it kinda doesnt sound like me in the complaining part.

retype: this is the pic i managed to grab from friendster, it certainly does not hav all my good friends in it, but it's the best pic i could find(cos i seldom upload photos, lazy, hehe)
I miss all my friends(sp, intec etc). I'll always treasure our friendship. Miss those days when we hang out together.
Merry christmas n happy new year in advance! =) =)

Results

Got my first block exam results today. At MMMC(melaka manipal medical college) here it's very scary, they paste the everyone's result details on the board. so we'll know who got distinction, who failed, who is the top student etc etc.
anyway i'm not the top student la, of course. hehe. din study finish for the exam, so din expect very good results also. i'm very happy that i passed my anatomy, which i thought i've flunked it. also, i'm happy that the marks i got for physiology n biochemistry actually achieve my target. dont wanna mention my marks here. it's kinda embarassing. overall i'm contented but i'm not very proud of the results. i hav to stop procrastinating from today onwards! i just cant seem to find the spirit to study. the spirit has been long lost since form 3 i think. it's just very difficult for me to study everyday. lack of motivation. but this has to stop now. i wanna be better. i need to be better. i need to escape from laziness. wish me luck!

Not exactly an update

My dear friend Joanne has come back safely fom bangalore n bought me a gift! How thoughtful. I'm so happy. THANKS A MILLION TIONG TIONG! I love the gift. I actually hav nothing to update but just feel so bored n thought i ought to write something. hehe. couldn't think of anything to crap already. gonna sleep. zzzzzzz..... :)

2.5 months

That's right. It has been 2.5 months. Everything past in a blur. Things just come n go. Just like that, block 1 is over. N immediately after the 1st block exam, IMMEDIATELY, classes for block 2 started. No relaxation, no resting, no relief, nothing. We hav to just keep moving on. It's life. Not just any life. The life of a medical student. Full of sacrifices, sufferings n stress. It's the life i've chosen. To myself n all who chose this course: Just hang in there. We'll make it through.

Relieved?

Another anatomy test had just passed.... what a relief! but there's never really time for rest, taking the medical course is just like hercules fighting the nine-headed monster which its name is Hydra if i'm not mistaken; as soon as u chop down one head, another two heads come out, n the heads just keep growing out non-stop. likewise, one test down, two more tests or pbl presentation will come out, n it's never-ending. sometimes i just wish time would stop for a while. it would be really great if i can just relax n do nothing for just this while.
now almost every time before n after test i'll look like crap, cos i dont get enough sleep. i wanna sleep for many hours in a day! sigh. n it dawned on me that my block exam is coming in 3 weeks' time, which is horrible! again sigh.
longing for my holiday in feb.
always sighing these days.
feel like i'm slowly disappearing in crowd(direct translation of 人间蒸发) cos dont hav time or too exhausted to keep in touch with ppl.
trying very hard to keep in contact with all my friends.
miss hanging out with friends.
miss playing poker n mahjong.
miss wasting time n lazing around without feeling guilty.
miss mathematics.
miss everything i used to do.
miss everybody that i hang out with.
dread studying everyday.(though until now i dont really do so, hehe)
don't wanna be zombified.
i want my life back! life at manipal simply isn't a life.
i'll be strong. n i'll survive. life goes on.

Just a clarification

for the last post, i wasnt talking bout a particular someone. it's just the way ppl r in this world. n i just wrote it simply to release my tension. hav been under hell lotsa stress lately. that's all. n to all of u, we as human beings r never perfect. so ya, each n everyone of us is both the bully n the victim, including those who r extremely friendly n harmless. the difference is only whether we r aware that we r bullying or being bullied. well, the truth is, when u r with someone weaker, gentler, n more submissive u'll tend to be the bully n when u r with someone which looks stern n agressive u wouldnt try to buly that person, would u? so now u know my last post referred to everyone in this world, every single one, including myself. haha. hope i made it clear, i wasnt angry at someone or something. that's all for this week. gotta get back to my anatomy study. the test is on this wed n i still hav 100+ pages to study. bye.

forever stressed

Tired

just finished my anatomy PBL presentation today. relieved? no. what a disaster i've made. n also two more r coming. that's not all. physiology test is on sat. n biochemistry test will be soon as well. feel so exhausted. spent the night before saturating(n almost blowing) my brain with the PBL presentation that din even fetch me good marks. feel like sleeping, but piles of never-ending work r awaiting. studied finish today, tomorrow there r always new things to learn. but the thing is, i havent really picked up the study-everyday habit, hence the accumulation of work. sigh. can only blame myself. life has to go on. hope i'll be strong n still be sane at the end of 5 years. but if i do become insane, dear friends, pls dont abandon me, lol. i wont do any harm to u. hehe. enough of crapping. from now onwards there'll be less n less , simply cos i cant afford to waste time writing blog. it would hav been better spent on sleeping, n watching series(as i dont hav to use my brain compared to writing blog), so pls understand. thanks for reading.

Life in India

I feel like i owe u all an update, hehe, so here it goes....
First, here's the answer to zhao ming's question: we do hav esprit here, but only in the big city like Bangalore which is 10 hours from Manipal if we take a bus.
Now, let's proceed to the conditions here:
1. the roads r very bumpy, so we dont really like to travel here
2. there's dust everywhere.... EVERYWHERE!
3. no food here can remind me of malaysian food; it just makes me miss malaysian food even more
4. my accommodation: a room with attached bathroom in a hostel
5. the laundry service here sucks, the clothes u sent may return smelly
6. i always thought that only malaysian ppl r inefficient; it seems that indians r just the same! (except for the photocopy service, they r really fast! it's like double the speed of photocopy workers in malaysia)
7. there r frequent power cuts(at least 2 times a day)

moving on to classes, the subjects for my first block(1 block is 10 weeks) r anatomy, biochemistry & physiology. i hav lectures 6 days a week(sun off), hav dissection class every morning(except tues cos it's in the afternoon, thurs n sat). the cadaver on my table is 2 years old.
sometimes i hav PBL(problem based learning) class n sometimes SDL(self directed learning). once a week i hav a boring PPD class(personal n professional development) which is similar to the moral class we used to take back in malaysia. i just hope we wont need to do assignments n presentations for it.
Thinking back, i kinda miss intec life where u can sleep or play with handphone in the class, sit wherever u want in class, sometimes can ponteng without producing an mc(just need to act like u r sick, lol), sometimes classes r cancelled n end at 10am then can go shopping, can wear just jeans n t shirts for lecture etc etc. I also miss akasia where there's a kitchen in the house n a place to hang clothes if u wash on ur own, a badminton court to exercise, washing machines to wash clothes easily.
I miss my kfc, i miss sunway pyramid, one u, i miss singing k, hanging out with friends, playing cards n mahjong n rotting at home. Well, i'm not saying that i've chosen the wrong path, i know that it wont be a bed of roses since the moment i made my decision, so i guess i can't really complain much. just hope that these 2.5 years will end quickly so that i can leave this place asap.

最'蛇'之人排行榜

Sorry for not updating for such a long long time, but here is the post as i promised.

经过我在INTEC两年来的分析, 以下是本BLOG最'蛇'之人排行榜（名次是对地方不对人, 因为环境对人格的影响很大, 大家日后要小心提防）。

1. 槟城 (100%, 没有一个是不会耍手段的)
2. 柔佛, KL, 马六甲 (80%)
3. 吉打, TERENGGANU, SIBU 等其他地方 (20%, 我不否认其中一个是我)

何谓朋友？ 说得难听一点，朋友 就是互相利用！But if it involves backstabbing, i dont think we can call that a 朋友.
这些是事实, 并不代表本作者的立场, 希望大家见仁见智, 千万不要吃 CILI。(siapa yg makan cili dialah yg rasa pedasnya) and no offense to those coming from places mentioned above.

p.s. actually i hav a lot to say, but i'm very very very very lazy to type it out, so that's all for now.

Rely on Maths lecturer? Think twice!

I was disappointed with my Maths lecturer...... If a student did this mistake, i would hav forgiven the person but this is a maths lecturer! The test question that she discussed with us goes like this:(not exactly but the idea is the same)
Line 1 & line 2 intersect at point B. Point A is on line 1 while point C is on line 2. ABCD is a parallelogram.(also the numerical info is given but there's no need to mention it since we wont use it here)
(i) Show that AB=BC.
(ii) Find the coordinate of point D.

After doing the 1st part of the question, my lecturer suggested the following diagram for part (ii).
She said, 'there r 4 possibilities of how u could draw point D but we'll just draw one as a guide.'

My goodness! Nearly fainted when she proposed that diagram. But i thought, maybe she just was just careless. So i kept quiet n let it be... However, it was noticed by charles who then pointed it out(say loud loud some more), "teacher, point D is supposed to be at the other side!(he meant solution 1)". But to my surprise, she said, "as i've told u just now, there r 4 possibilities of how u could draw point D n this is one of them. of course u can draw that way too. but we'll discuss this diagram according to my diagram."

YES, THERE R 4 DIAGRAM OF SOLUTIONS TO POINT D BUT THE ABOVE ONE IS DEFINITELY NOT ONE OF THEM! The solutions r as the following:



I kept quiet for the second time. I know she wasn't gonna admit that she was wrong. But Sze Chiang n Charles just couldn't get over it n they argued with her AGAIN. My jaw dropped when she said, "It is not necessary to follow the order of ABCD when u label a polygon." This STUPID statement came out from a Maths lecturer! She meant the diagram below is absolutely correct!Hell, it is altogether WRONG! and a HUGE MISTAKE to be made by a lecturer! A person good in Maths will never draw it this way, simply because it is WRONG! In the question part (i), it's already mentioned that AB and BC r the sides of the parallelogram, so how on earth could we obtain the above diagram? Another argument point: if she had proposed point D to be as in her diagram, ABCD should be this:
Let me remind u the definition of a parallelogram. According to Oxford dictionary, parallelogram is a flat shape with 4 straight sides, the opposite sides being parallel and equal to each other. And this is what the dictionary showed for parallelogram(the middle one):That z-shaped thing was not even close to a polygon, let alone a parallelogram!
At the end of the day, we went back late, thanks to Charles n Sze Chiang who never gav up(gav up in the end too) explaining to the lecturer. It dawned on me that she was not careless; she didn't even know that she was wrong, and the worse is she insisted she was right. All the while i've been keeping quiet cos i certainly don't want to catch the bus late!
This is the forever only correct way to label a polygon:
Well, the conclusion is, she was wrong, n point D can't be there as she proposed. But i could not tolerate with such mistake. How could a lecturer teach her student to label a parallelogram that way? Ugh.... U may think that i'm too emo, but i refuse to let ppl insult my beloved Mathematics!

German Week

Hullo! Sorry for not updating for a long time. Not havin a laptop n a good internet connection at akasia makes regular updates impossible! Anyway, I went for the German Week organised by ALG students n here r some photos:
Before going to INTEC:
Look at our depressed faces! What happen? We hav been waiting for more than 45 minutes for the bus! It was awfully long n we din hav anything to do, so we just played around with my digicam. Well, we ended up hailing taxi to go there... what a pity!
But i managed to capture a good pic of Joanne(can b used as her singing album cover d, lol!)>>>
At last, we reached INTEC, already sweating due to the hot weather. Of course i know the venue of this supposedly grand event, but when i look at these:
What? Did they expect the visitors to possess superhuman eyesight? u can only see it because i zoomed my digicam to the maximum! what i had expected was a proper n noticeable signboard... Never mind, i thought, maybe they were in a rush n just simply put it on.
So we continued until we reach the german block.
Still ok, I thought. At least they did something to beautify the place. But when I see this>>>
I nearly fainted! THIS ugly thing(sorry that i've to say it n i know who did it), was not supposed to show up in a grand event! It was so horrible. Even if they hav to write it, they could hav asked william to write, at least his writing is way better than this!
Moving on to the inside,
Pat posing for my camera. She was so happy to see us here(we were the only non-ALG there)!

The German Week T-shirt. Not bad!

William busy with presentation thingy.

We had fun eating the german snacks.

sausages

salad(i think)

After that we listened to a presentation by german exchange student.

Took some pics of nice photos in his presentation, hehe.

The next day i went alone(as the others couldn't wake up early n also the one that could wake up early wanna study) to INTEC to watch barfuss, which is a nice movie. I wanna watch all the other movies, but couldn't afford to waste too much of my time; trial was just around the corner. Ich denke das ist alles for my german week visit. Overall it's just so-so, probably due to the insufficient fund INTEC provided.

The start of something NEW

Hello everybody, it's a brand new year 2008! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
So what do ppl usually do when it's the start of another year? Resolutions! Alright, i admit that so far i've never really done what i resolved to do but still, there's chance that i might change this year, right?(though i knew that i'm just bluffing myself, lol) Ok, so here goes nothing....

2008 RESOLUTIONS:
1. to be more intelligent
2. to get an excellent result in my A-Levels
3. to be healthy and happy always
4. to enjoy life to the fullest as possible as this is the last year i can do it(i.e. eat more, sleep more, play more)
5. to be an overall better(considerate, wise, patient etc) person(i doubt it, hehe)
6. to be a better paparazzo(of course! it's very important!)
7. to hav luck on my side all the time
8. to hav lotsa money
9. to be more diligent(yes! i'll try my very best to say bye bye to laziness!)

It dawned on me that i actually had spent year 2007 fairly luxuriously. I'd been playing around n even got to tour europe! not bad eh? it'll be my best memories ever!
Hopefully this year would be a better year for all of us. Nevertheless it's gonna be full of partings as most of us r gonna fly in aug/sept(some already did).....
Anyway, saying hi to 2008, no more procrastination, no more looking back into the past, the only thing that we can n should do is keep our heads up n face the challenges await boldly!
