Long Overdue Post!

Its been a while since i actually blogged. Yes! i know im on holiday and i should have time to spare to blog...but it seems that i am more busy compared to during exam period. So many things have been happening continously ever since exam ended. First the diwali function in uni, exam results, and then my much awaited holiday to australia. I have been looking forward to this holiday for so long (months).. my first stop on my aussie hol was ADELAIDE!.

The place i spent only 5 months but had the time of my life and met the nicest and amazing people..*smiles*. It was good to be back after exactly one year and eventhough it was only for one week. i wouldnt give it up for anything. Catching up with friends and just relaxing was just my cup of tea. Adelaide is pretty laid back, so all i did while i was there was sleep! *haha*..i couldnt believe it myself but i actually had really LONG hours of slumber sleep, then we went to the beach. The beautiful sight of the beach and its soft sand just made me feel so refreshing. it was so good to see clear blue sky. There was also shopping done! ..I am a girl after all and shopping is my second nature..*hehe*..i bought myself this purple bag i truly love! the clothes and accessories you find here are really nice and the price is reasonable if you dont convert that is.. I guess its not so bad since the currency has dropped.*yay!*..So overall adelaide was just heaps of fun and i really do miss it loads *sobs sobs*

After spending a week at adelaide, i took a flight to melbourne. The flight to melb was the most uncomfortable 50 minutes of my entire flying experience. This was due to the terrible weather..there was lots of turbulence., i was honestly scared so i just buried myself in my twilight book. Good thing i bought the book at Borders, adelaide..it is definately a good companion..haha. I have yet to watch the movie, and watching it is one of the few things im going to do as soon as i get back home...Besides being totally engrossed in my book, i actually sat next to an interesting australian guy. Im sure each and every one of us secretly wish that we sit next to an interesting, HOT guy when we travel..*haha*..well Brad (aussie guy) and i only started talking towards the end of the flight..it was short conversation nevertheless he was really nice enough to offer to send me to my sisters apartment in the city. However due to the airport being closed once we landed, and me getting stuck at the airport due to my luggage. i told him to go ahead without me. We did exchange numbers though and caught up later in melbourne city.


Its been 6 days since i've been here in melbourne. The weather could be better, seriously the weather has been very weird for Summer..even when i landed in adelaide..the first thing i asked my friend was "Am i in the right place??"..haha..it is suprisingly cold for summer. I dont mind the cold though..it drives the flies away!!! *HAHA*..the only thing i dislike about summer in australia, is the FLIES!!! its just everywhere! like the attack of the flies!! *haha*..anyways besides the shopping till im broke spree, my sister and i met up with family!! i have relatives in melbourne..so we went visiting on sunday. To our suprise, my favourite cousin bro's from london are down for holidays as well..So it is an awesome family reunion as well...*wohoo*. I am looking forward to the weekend, because we have heaps of stuff planned..*yippie*..thats about it so far about my vacation. 10 more days and i will be home ..*sigh*.there are advantages and disadvantages of coming home...hmm..but i dont want to think about it for now..its just all about my holiday now.

P.S : pictures will be uploaded when i get home!!

Cant Get Enough About Bra's

Have you ever wondered what religion is your bra??...you might be wondering whats with my fetish for bra's and all this talk about religion and bra's...well hold on! dont let your mind wander too far, First of, i dont really have a fetish for Bra's or post's on bra's. *haha*.i just like to spread the word and put a smile on your faces. So before you jump to any conclusion, sit back relax and appreciate the story below!!



A man walked into the ladies department of a
Macy 's

and shyly walked up to
the woman behind the counter and said,
'I'd like to buy a bra for my wife. '

'What type of bra?'
asked the clerk.
' Type?' inquires the man, 'There's more than one type?'
' Look around,'
said the saleslady,
as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color
and material imaginable.
!

'Actually,
even with all of this variety,
there are really only
four types of bras to choose from .'

Relieved, the man asked
about the types.

The saleslady replied:
'There are the Catholic,
the Salvation Army,
the Presbyterian,
and the Baptist types.
Which one would you prefer?'

Now totally befuddled,
the man asked about
the differences between them.
The Saleslady responded,
'It is all really quite simple. ...

The Catholic type
supports the masses;
The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen;

The Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright; and
The Baptist makes mountains out of mole hills.'

Have you ever wondered why A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, and H are the letters used
to define bra sizes?
If you have wondered why,
but couldn't figure out
what the letters stood for,
it is about time
you became informed!

(A} Almost Boobs...


{B} Barely there...



{C} Can't Complain!...



{D} Dang!...



{DD} Double dang!...



{E} Enormous!...



{F} Fake...



{G} Get a Reduction...



{H}! Help me , I've fallen and I can't get up!...

They forgot the German bra. Holtzemfromfloppen







hope you had a good laugh

QUICKIES!

It has been slightly more than a week since my finals ended, and i have yet to sit back and enjoy my holiday. I have been so busy, i guess you could say i was more free and available during my exam. *hmm*..im not really proud of it but it is safe to say after tomorrow, i will have more time to blog, watch my tv series and just spend more ME time *hehe*

Tommorow is a big day for me. First of, my final results will be out *deep breath*...yes! after 10 days, i will face the results of my 2 months worth of effort...was it enough? will it pay off? well i will find out at 10am...all i can do at this point, is pray that i will pass and my results will not only make myself but my parents proud as well. So for everyone who will be receiving their results..all the best!!..and just remember, whatever the end result is...lift your chin up and take the next step. Dont let anything hold you back...

Besides my results, IMU diwali night will be held tomorrow at 7pm at lecture theatre 2. I am in charge of the decoration and also performing in the fusion dance. It has not been an easy journey. It was suppose to be fun but the outcome seems to be the opposite. So im definately looking forward to just getting it over with tomorrow.

I promise more updates about everything after tomorrow. Till my next post.

Proud To Be A Lady!

I was reading my friend Ceci's blog today, and she posted this article regarding coffee. This article came across as a huge shocker to me!. The title of the article is


" CUPPA COFFEE GIVES GIRLS A SMALLER CUP"

The title pretty much says it all, if you havent guessed it yet (how could you not?). According to research, it is shown that coffee can shrink the size of a women's breast. *gasp!!*..the only thing that ran through my mind as i read the article was. " you gotta be kidding me!!*..

This research was conducted by Swedish scientist and they found that women who actually drink more than 3 cups of coffee daily could see their bra size drop. The cancer research has also found a gene that links breast size to coffee intake. Amazing isnt it what technology and research can produce. However the question is, this research was conducted on european women, will this theory actually produce the same result on asian women???


If it does, is that the solution to me having big assets? *hmm*..Well indian women are generally known to have bigger boobs and thighs, its in our gene..its not that im not proud of the assets god has given me, its just that sometimes it can be a little awkward. You cant deny that women with bigger boobs do attract attention..i have personally been in situation where the first thing a guy looks at is "the chest area". *rolls eyes*..seriously havent they seen breast before????...



Moreover, you can feel out of place, when you have the largest assets among all your girlfriends..Even if they do envy the fact that you have bigger boobs. Shopping can be a bit of trouble, because big busted women cant wear all type of clothes and if you happen to show a little bit of cleavage, it tends to be a topic at the dinner table!!!....I have to say, i have moved on from being shy about my appearance to accepting it. I probably have adelaide to thank for that. Im more comfortable being the women i am, and proud of my ASSETS!!

Having huge boobs has its advantages and disadvantages, i prefer to look at the bright side. There are big bust-ed women out there and proud of it (bootylicious people), and im glad im part of it *feeling happy* I dont think any amount of coffee can reduce the size tremendously. Although i do believe it is possible for the size (cup size) to be affected.


Scarlett looks stunning!


Indian women proud of her genes


My personal favourite




Christina Aguilera suprisingly had boobs after giving birth

Read the article and you might have a clearer picture. For the guys reading this post, it might come across as a little awkward, but do read it with an open mind kay! *hehe*..

MOVING ON

Summative 2 exam is finally over and done with. It is a relieve eventhough i know the hard part is yet to come. The exam was okay, *hmm*..okay seems to be a normal respond. what does okay actually mean???. it reminds me of schooling days, once i have finished an exam and mum would ask me, "so how did it go??" and i would say "okay la" (being malaysian)..then there would be a short moment of pause, i guess it was her waiting for me to elaborate on that..after that moment, i would either go "okay" again or elaborate telling her how many questions i didnt know and that i was not quite sure what my results would be like. Eventhough my mum thinks, saying "okay" is me not trying to communicate..i feel that "okay" is the easiest word to describe an exam your unsure of.."The paper was not that hard or too easy either, yet there were parts of it i was uncertain of"..instead of saying all that, we substitute it with the word "okay"...if the paper was extremely tough..i would definately said it was "hard" and express my sadness and doubt on my chance of passing..on the other hand, if the exam was easy ( i hardly use this word when it comes to exams)..im sure i would say it was easy.. Somehow, mum doesnt ask me how the easy paper was!( example : english )

Anyways after Summative 2, i told myself that i would attend the Feedback session. Afterall eventhough i would know how badly or well i did, the feedback was meant for us to learn from our mistakes and hopefully dont repeat them in EOS!..I sort of lost track of the number of mistakes i did, and i would have to wait for the result to see the final and exact score!..that however is the least of my worries right now. At this point of time, all i can think about is cramming all those notes into my brains in 2 weeks!!!!!.

After exams, tallan and i just got back to the apartment and lazed around..The exhaustion just fell on me like a ton of bricks..all i wanted to do was sleep and watch the tv series i downloaded. we had to go for our dental suprise gathering though. Since i was craving for a good meal, i went to chillies in KLCC.. ive never been to the chillies there. It is well known for its good view, i definately was looking forward to that good view..unfortunately the place was packed and we ended up sitting at this congested area. I lost my apetite after that. Im definately not satisfied...therefore after my finals, i will go back to klcc and get that table with the good view *haha*...

After dinner, i went to watch Max Payne. I did not realise i was actually watching a movie which was released on the that day. *haha*.i was quite excited when i found out though. Max Payne, the movie which was based on a game, to me was interesting and entertaining. I know a few people who did not enjoy it and thought it was boring. I mean which part of the movie was actually boring???..I have to agree that the movie did revolve mostly around mark wahlberg and his 'sad & angry" character,.but the storyline was different and the action was alright except for certain parts which i thought looked so "tamil movie-ish"...overall, i would give it an 7/10...which is good in my books!..

the movie ended at 11pm, i got home to find my housemate having a drinking party with lots of people!. I totally did not expect that. I was too tired to actually join them, and i ended up sleeping through all that LOUD noise!.. (not bad premi!)..that pretty much was how my thursday went. I woke on friday feeling so drugged and drained out of energy. I had so much to pack and i was glad to be back home for my 2 weeks study break... The only thing i have to complain about is getting the momentum to study again for EOS..its difficult to just go back sitting with the books and memorising!...i know i dont have much of a choice. i started out slow but i know eventually i will get there!

till my next post
XOXO

BRING IT ON!

The day has finally arrived, in less than 20hours time i will be sitting for my Summative 2 exam!.*gasp*.how is my preparation going?? well that's not really an easy question for me to answer. It eventually comes down to that one hour at the exam hall..There's only so much i can control and the rest is basically unpredictable. Among the things i cant control is how tough the exam paper will be, the butterfly in my tummy (they're pretty stubborn) and my brain function. At the present moment, i suppose i have done most of what i am suppose to do (note me trying to be positive) *haha*..the rest depends on god and luck!..Summative 2 is not really the most dreadful thing, the worst (EOS) has yet to come..Every preparation from here on out will be for EOS.

Then why is tomorrow still such a big deal to me??, Summative 2 does contribute 15% to my internal, but it is a wake up call for me because i will have 2 weeks to complete my dental semester 1 work, dental semester 2 stuff and also medical semester 1 notes ( about 120 lectures)..i predict really late nights, and dark raccoon eyes and moments of depression. Anyways i am ready to go through any hardship and challenge to pass my professional exam!. Goodbye social life!....

Today we have our MOCK EOS exam, i have only one word to describe it,..*HORENDOUS*...i have so much work to do. Out of 12 questions i probably knew 3/4 questions and the rest was pure guessing!..*sigh*, that exams says everything about my preparation for my finals...well now since the battle has begun, im sure there will be progress *fingers-crossed*...

XOXO
Dental result came out today. i am pretty content with the outcome..i have to admit i expected the worse. So now i have to give my finals everything i got, and i might be able to come out of it alive. I wish everyone good luck for Summative 2 tomorrow and for the final preparation!..

Goodbye 1 week break, Hello last week of university!

I cannot believe one whole week of break has just gone by, how i wish it was longer because im certainly not looking forward to going back to uni eventhough its my last week!!. there's only 12 more days until my Summative 2 exam and about a month till my finals!!!..if your wondering whether im stressed???, i am a little stressed and tensed about it.(of course my hormones arent helping)..being a women (since im 20) is not easy, we have this thing called "hormones" that i believe has a mind of its own.. who can tell when were upset or emotional or just annoyed!!..More so when its the time of the month! *sigh*, but it also has its good side..it prevents us from being susceptible to certain diseases thats until we reach menopause..after that, there are other things to worry about...*hmm*


Anyways, most of time during this holiday was spent at home drowning myself in medical books!! this was the only time i had to catch up on so many things..i only manage to do medical stuff..havent touched dental.. Trust me, being a dental student is definately not easier. Im not suprised that dentist have the highest SUICIDE rate!!! *gosh*. how on earth do they expect to us to get all that information in and finals is just one day after the medical professional exam, i need to know my work at my finger tips!! Just thinking about it makes me dizzy.. well i suppose anything is possible (trying to be positive)..i have to keep at the pace and not slow down or get distracted.

Besides my life being about the books now, i spent quality time with my mum. Mum is helping me with the decoration for the diwali night. my godparents and us when to "little india" which is in klang town on saturday. We browsed around for indian decorative items and im happy to say i saw a couple of things i liked and i managed to come up with a budget...im hoping RM 500 will not be too expensive for the committee...i think buying this decoration is actually a good investment, you basicly can reuse it for any other diwali or indian functions. There wasnt any deco's left from last year because they only used balloons. The theme for this year's diwali night is VARNAM, Colours of Diwali.. i have a couple of ideas which i hope will turn out nicely. Before that, i need to find myself some help...doubt i can do everything on my own...

Right now i have a list of things to do which i have to try to get done by tomorrow, after that i will be able to concerntrate on my exams!.the last week of uni is pretty dreadful, prof khoo is giving us a quiz on tuesday on something i have YET to read!!, and then on wednesday..is our feedback session for the dental OSPE exam *gulp*, oh tomorrow i have this microscopy lab thing which i really think is a waste of time.. time we could use studying!!..there is also dental practice sessions..*goodness*...we have 3 more foundation lectures to read before exam *hmm*..i need to save all my energy and get enough rest just to get through the week!...

till my next post!.

MAMMA MIA!



Yes i have watched the 2008 Summer musical release "Mamma Mia"..and what do i have to say about it, it was just really enjoyable!!. Although there have been mix reviews on the movie., i personally will encourage those who like musicals or ABBA for that matter to watch the movie. ..

I watched the movie with my mum and godparents. The first thing my godfather asked me before we went in the cinema was


Godfather : have you heard of abba???
Me : *giving the DUH look*


haha..Im pretty sure almost everyone (our generation) know about ABBA, How can you not know ABBA.. or am i being too naive to think that everyone might know of them..Is it because im more musicly incline?, or is it cause im more exposed to musics from different era. Well for those of you who do not know about ABBA or the MAMMA MIA musical which is a broadway...well its pretty sad. Their music is just classic and has a lot of meaning..something that music at the present time is lacking (if you know what i mean)...


Anyways coming back to the movie, the star studded cast which included Pierce Brosnon, Meryl Streep, Amanda seyfried, Colin Firth brought such joy and fun to the musical filled with laughter. The best part was that they used on their own voice. Imagine my suprise when i heard Pierce Brosnon sing!! *hmm*..not bad for a bond!!!!






The first thing i did once i got back after the movie was actually download the whole soundtrack *hehe*. Here are my top 3 reasons for watching the movie :


1. Its based on MAMMA MIA the musical from ABBA (the songs are wonderful)

2. It was filmed in GREECE! soo very beautiful (its in my honeymoon list *blush*
3. its a Fun-filled movie that will just lift your spirits..

Stress-relief ways!

Since its the Exam season, im sure most of us are pretty stressed, tensed and well,(especially for girls) we start noticing an increase in loss of hair. Due to this, some might start to look for alternate ways of de-stressing. Among the different ways are :


1. hanging out with friends or girlfriends...who wouldnt love spending some girl time (shopping!, manicures!)

2. Then there is the food solution.i have to admit, i fall into this category. We start eating chocolate stuff, ice-creams and heavy meals!.

3. Listening to music. (im for this as well!)... especially when im studying, after a while..i turn on my itunes and listen to smooth jazzy sounds of michael buble, The corrs, Craig david. etcetc..

4. watching a tv series. new season of Gossip girl, Heroes, Prison break & grey's anatomy is out!! (but becareful as this can lead to a serious addiction)

Basicly those are a few examples i can think of at the moment. Im sure most of you have your own personal way of letting go. Some of the examples only apply in certain conditions.. NOT when your exams are around the corner, then its BYE BYE! tv series *sobs*...

Today while studying a good friend of mine sent me an sms while i was busy understanding IMMUNOLOGY!!. The message was refering to my cheerleading pictures on facebook. I thought the message was really cute and sweet.


GOOD FRIEND : Save the cheerleader save the world. I never got why they used to say that but after seeing your pics now i know. *smiley face*.


Somehow that message also got me thinking of my lecturers in IMU who have a tendency of posting up cartoon pictures in between their lecture slides. A couple of them are pretty funny. Below are a couple of cute jokes i found of the internet.



Dental Humour!! (afterall i AM a dental student *winks*)

-hope you enjoyed it-

IMU CUP *Go Bandits!!*


Let me start of by saying that, i am not really an athletic person neither am i active in outdoor acitivities. Hence joining the cheerleading squad came as a suprise to not only me but most of my friends and family members. However, till this very day i will not regret joining the group because it was loads of fun and i actually lost weight *wohoo*. To this i have only one person to thank, and that person is Izyan Syazwani a.k.a izzi!. Our cheerleading team was called the BANDITS!.im not quite sure who came up with it..we also had a short cheer which was used during all the games. it went something like this : MEDT BANG!BANG! BANG!..( refering to the gun bang people *hehe*)
The competition was on the 19th September 2008 at the IMU atrium. a total of 6 groups from various batches and course took part. The cheerleading competition is the biggest event during IMU cup and so many people come to watch it. My friends from klang and my MUMMY actually came to watch me. Seeing her really made my day.. To make it all the more better, we actually won 3rd place. We werent quite expecting a placing as most of the senior batches were really good. I guess our synchronising and facial expression helped us out..so thank you Wei chin for everything.
Our performance started with "bittersweet symphony" by verve, and then followed by a short cheer. Next was "pump it" by black eyed peas and "lets get it started" by black eyed peas. After a longer cheer (main cheer)..we danced to Avril Lavigne " best damn thing"..it was a very cute girly song!!, then came "elevator" by timbaland. and lastly was "So what" by Pink!.. A video of our performance can be found on YOUTUBE!
Here are a couple of pics from that memorable day.



Meet the cheer squad!




In the begining, first song we danced to was "pump it" by black eyed peas




i was doing a shoulder sit on leon!! (there were some minor mistakes on that day) sorry about that leon

The guy who takes amazing pictures

Prakash who helped me do my pom poms!

QUICKIES!

Current status : really sad

As my status says, im really sad because today my dear friend dhal left for uk. I know,mentioned it in my previous post, but what makes this departure worse was because i didnt get to see her before she left.. YES i did mention i was going to meet her with my friend maya..but things didnt quite work out..let me explain why :

1. the initial plan was that maya was going to drive to KLIA in the morning to send daley of. We agreed to leave to at 7am to get that early and just incase we got lost, etc.. Maya sent me a text me early morning around 5 to tell me that she thought we should take the train, cause she didnt want to drive as she was not sure of the route to KLIA..she said that if thats the case we can leave at 7.30am..i was quite hesitant. we all know how our train system is...even if the KLIA express and the LRT is pretty fast and efficient... Anyways i was up by 7am.and decided to google the KLIA Express...i didnt realise how expensive the train ticket was...its RM 26.50 for one way ( tasik selatan to klia)..

2. I called maya at 7.30am a couple of times but she didnt answer..i assumed she overslept since she did have a late night...she called me back at 7.45am...we tried to figure the best way to get to the airport..she didnt want to drive because she had to pour petrol, and finding parking was going to be difficult..Anyways, we took the train at 8.00am..and reached the tasik selatan station 10 minutes later. We had to wait for the train to the airport for 25 MINS!!!!!...*sigh*]

3. i text dhal about 8.30am to tell her not to go in yet..and that we would be at the airport by 9am..besides it doesnt really take long to go into imigration (thanks to our awesome passport thingy)..and the gate would prob open at 9.20am...when i went to adelaide, i was the second last person to board the plane..*haha*..coming back to my story...half way, dhal texts me and says that her dad made her go in already...my heart just sank!!..we were so close...*sobs sobs*...

4. there was nothing much we could do, we got down at the next station and took the next train back to tasik selatan.. i tried negotiating with the guy to give us a refund..but he said NO...and there goes RM 26.70!! i was completely broke...maya had to buy my ticket back to sri petaling...The money was a secondary issue,,it was just really upseting that i couldnt see her before she left..we only talked for a short while!!.. *hmm*....oh well my thoughts will always be with you dal

5. Im definately going to miss you heaps, cant wait to see you when you come back.!!! this post is dedicated to you. Wish you all the luck in the world!!! and just have fun..i know you will..OH and if that particular someone gives you trouble...ill take the next flight to uk...and kick his ass!!!!..*lol*...muax.!!!!!!!

love ya!!!.

XOXO

The much awaited post!

This is my first post after my dental ospe exam, and before i get to the best part of my post...i need to express my disatisfaction on my dental paper. It didnt really go to well!!. The OSPE exam consist of 15 stations and at each station, there will be a question which either is diagrammatic, model, x-rays etc. We are only allowed 5 minutes at each station, and after 5 minutes the buzzer will ring and we are suppose to change stations.. Its something like musical chairs..except its not FUN because were being graded and its quite pressurising. You basicly have enough time just to finish the question, and not really go through,.it gets tough when you kinda go blank and the question is hard...so im not too sure how my results going to turn out..the lecturers have already said that we should (i quote) "study more!!!"...and the lecturer also reminded us that the dental paper was actually ' EASY" according to their standards...so here's my problem..if i found the OSPE hard, whatmore can i say about my Summative 2, EOS medical and EOS dental *sigh*..it relaly feels like doomsday!!!



The only thing that helps me get through everyday, is knowing that im not alone..and that there are my batchmates that actually feel the same, so we can always count on each other just being there especially during the days where you just feel like giving up!..but i have told myself that IM not going to give up!!!. im going to take this challenge!! and with a little help from above,i WILL pass my first year!!!!!



Moving on from the exam topic, another sad news is that my dalini is actually leaving to UK tomorrow morn at 10am!!.. i havent seen her since the cheerleading competition, which im so glad she made it! well it was actually because she had some problems with her visa..so they had to postphone her flight.. All the better for me, cause i had the chance to spend some more time with her!!..but the time has come for us to part for a WHOLE YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *sobs*...things are going to be different not having dhal around.....its not going to be the same eventhough we will still be able to communicate through internet & maybe skype!...Im sure almost everyone has a friend or sibling who has gone to pursue their education abroad!..i guess i have to look at the bright side and see that its only for 1 year *still sobbing*...anyways im suppose to follow maya to the airport in the morning to send her off..that will be my last time seeing her!...*no tears only smiles*..



On a brighter note, the IMU music club organised an event called NOISE, they actually have it every semester to basicly promote the club, raise funds that kinda stuff...IMU is actually filled with many talented people and i dont mean just academically....my friend IZZI performed 2 duets. one with Fikri (song title : breathe by Anna nalick) and another with Joel ( song title : lucky by jason mraz & coby calliat). She was just amazingly SUPERB...no other way to describe her performance...so today i realised my friend IZZI has more hidden talent..that makes her a SUPER WOMEN!!.. *kisses to you izzi*



Below are some pictures of my cheerleading competition. More pics can be found on my facebook profile and a video of our performance can be found on YOUTUBE! (the video isnt that great because its taken from only 1 angle)..


SORRY PEOPLE, I CANT SEEM TO UPLOAD PICTURES AT THE MOMENT.. SO I WILL TRY AGAIN NEXT TIME AIGHT!...CONTINUE CHECKING UP FOR MORE UPDATES *HEHE*

IMPORTANTE!

i have been missing in action for quite some time now. i dont think an explanation is really needed. Im pretty sure you can guess why!, but just to make things more clearer the reasons are because :



1. slogging through dental notes due to my OSPE exam on tuesday



2. CPR exam on sunday (21/9/08)

3. Cheerleading practice

4. More studying

Hence, due to the above mentioned reasons, my blog will be taking a short break. and once im done with my dental OSPE exam on tuesday, ill be sure to blog about my AWE-some cheerleading competition! *stay tuned*..

QUICKIES!

Current status : MAD!!


I really dont like it, when my status in most of my post is basicly sad, angry or sick!. but what am i suppose to do when there are people like my landlord around..that make me feel all these negative emotions!. i couldnt sleep last night because of this particular lady...its either she doesnt understand english, she is having her PMS or she is just a MEAN!! person..whatever it is, i dont think its nice to treat a person the way she did..Let me explain to you the reason im soooo very mad at my landlord.

First of, i have to say that i have mentioned my dissatisfaction over my landlord once or twice in my previous post. Anyways, the weather last night was pretty humid, and my aircond wasnt functioning properly as it was leaking. This was around 12am, so i decided to text my landlord at that time because i knew the next day i would be to busy with uni that i will eventually forget to text or call her...so this is the msg i sent to her

Premi : Ms.ester, i would like to bring to your attention that currently the aircond in the master bedroom is leaking and the kitchen roof is likewise. i would really appreciate it if you dealt with these problems as soon as possible for it is causing a lof ot inconvenient and distress. ( me trying to sound professional)

Landlord : Dont try to be funny it late at night now! Are you trying to find way out to delay in paying your rental?or trying to give excuse in doing repairing without approval (im thinking to myself WTF!!!!)

Premi : (being patient) Ms ester i have already deposited the cash on monday. I have the receipt with me. Im not trying to be funny but we are having some problems with the maintenance. The reason im sending you the message so late is because i have been very busy with uni. and the weather is humid today so i cant use the aircond. Im just informing you to take the correct action. Dont misunderstand me.

Landlord : Do it again i will issue a warning!! ( WTF BIATCH!!). This time if i dont receive the full amount of rental on time you would face the consequences

(so i tried calling her at, it was around 12.15am to clear things, cause i felt she didnt understand what i was saying but she didnt answer her phone,,so i left it and just sent her a text)


Premi : I tried calling you to sort this missunderstanding. Ill call you tomorrow again or if your free please give me a call. Thank you. You can check your account as the full amount of 1600 is already there. thank you. Good night.

(the next morn) Landlord : Your matter already been forwarded through email to the owner. I am waiting for instruction. You have no common sense by calling people at that kind of time?.

Premi : Sorry ms. ester for calling at that time. Anyways i hope we can meet today or tomorrow at the apt if your free. So i can show the problem to you. I dont want you to have the wrong idea about me. Thank you for forwarding the email. I will wait for your reply. have a nice day.

CONTINUATION

Landlord : i dont want to see you or do anything till i get reply from owner....


That's exactly how the conversation went. In my opinion, i didnt expect her to reply my msg if it was late!!!!.. doesnt she know how to use HER freaking common sense. Im trying to be real patient and being polite and she gets all BITCHY on me!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!....the only reason i asked her to come to the apt, so she can see for herself that there is some problem and not think im lying...Seriously, i hate such people!!...is she taking advantage of me just cause im younger and being polite??..*argh*

Anyways, im giving her 3 working days to reply to me. i have decided to move out of the apartment when my contract ends..i really dont want to rent a place owned by such person.....
*sigh*..that's about it for now...i needed to vent it out!!....

QUICKIES!

Current status : in recovery!!!

I have been meaning to blog, but everytime im about to sit at my laptop..something comes up or i just get so lazy to type whatever that's been on my mind. I've got heaps of work to do and need to force myself to get down to work. Before that, a quick update on my weekend. Well it practically flew by so quickly as usual. *erm* on friday class ended pretty early, and by that i mean 12!! so its actually VERY early..i got home (klang) by 5.00pm..after that was just lazing around. At about 8pm i headed to tiny bum a.k.a daley's house to spend some quality time with her...steph and emily joined us...Prax was missing in action as he had IELTS exam the next day. Im sure he would have scored in his IELTS unlike me, i did alright,..kinda messed my oral part though...It's not like it was hard or anything, the topic was about animal's....*sheesh*..i guess i panicked, even i myself didnt understand what i was saying...anyways that was ancient history..(6 months ago)..After spending some good girl quality time, i got home and instead of sleeping went online....It was a big mistake....You might wonder why????..

The reason was because a friend of mine was online as well, and wanted to play UNO!!. I guess he was bored. It was not a normal uno game, he made a bet and stuff.. The best was if he won i had to change my MSN nick to a ONE word which starts with the letter "F"....but if I won..well thats not really important to know..*hehe*..So being a bit of an egoistic person, although initially i did not want to play, ended up taking the bet. ...Initially i was winning, but then i got tired and the online UNO game is slightly different then normal.. *haha* yes yes i know im making excuses for my lost!!..(still blame it on the sleep)..lol...Since losing the game, my nick has changed from Bedazzeld to Fallegur.(means beautiful in icelandic)...i liked the word when i came across it... The change of nick is temporary till my next UNO match..*haha*...i am well prepared now...


My saturday mornings is pretty much a routine, i try to wake up early and go to the temple..Once i come back i try to do a bit of reading..This weekend, a family friends daughter was visiting as she was going to russia to pursue her studies in medicine. *good luck to you daya*..After that, i go about my "driver" duties, sending my younger sis to and from tuitions...She has malay tuition, art class and taekwando's on saturday. At night i went for this tamil movie called "dhaam Dhoom" directed by Jeeva (if im not mistaken). Most of the film was shot in Moscow,russia..and while shooting almost 80% of the movie, the director died...im not too sure about the cause of death..I did not actually want to go for the movie but since my godparents and mum was going, i decided to spend some quality family time and tag along.....Tamil movies are about 2 1/2 hours, so that basicly was my saturday. Oh and in my opinion, the movie wasnt that great actually...it could have been shot better eventhough the story line was good.


Waking up on sunday mornings is such a drag, just cause you know its a Sunday and that you have to go back to uni the next day. I dont really like the whole packing my stuff and going back to vista. I'll start missing my bedroom..*hehe*... anyways i cant believe i actually watched "CAMP ROCK" on disney channel..im not a big fan of Jonas Brother's but somehow i felt like i wanted to see what was the big hype about..I still dont get it..In comparison to High School Musical, it wasnt all that great.. HSM has better songs and a larger cast..i suppose CAMP ROCK is a smaller production, but i heard that it received an overwhelming response thus they're going to do a sequel to it...How typical!!!..I have to admit though, i find the 2nd brother, Joe quite good looking.. *blushes*.All that jumping around and singing must really attract the younger crowd..not forgetting the fact that JONAS BROTHERs as the main characters must really help...After watching that, i watched a movie which was more suited to my taste.. "Perfect Strangers". Halle berry and Bruce willis acts in it, i do encourage you to catch in on HBO if you have the chance. it has a good story line..the movie is a thriller somewhat..so if you enjoy that genre of movies, you will definately enjoy this!..CSI very own Warrick Brown actually acts in it as well...

There you have it, a not so short summary on how my weekend went. I manage to squeeze in time for Gossip Girl and One Tree hill (super awesome!!)..haha..

Current status : SICK!

Im down with a real bad flu, my nose is blocked..i can barely breathe! i also have a real bad soarthroat..thus me losing my voice. Though some people think, the soar throat voice is much more sexier *hahaha*.. The Flam inside is the only thing bugging me, cause it probably take a couple of days for it to subside. Till then im on strict medication..meet my new pals, Panadol, Actified and vitamins...Apparently, im not the only one who is sick..there are quite a number of people in IMU who are not feeling well. I blame it on the RAIN!!...its been raining continously and last week, i got wet at least 4 times....that pretty much explains it all..

Adding to that, i did not attend class today. I only went for CSU (clinical skills unit) as it is pretty important, eventhough, i was pretty much suffering during the entire 2 hours!!!.. i missed a lot today though, it was another long day of classes. I have to catch up on more work now *sigh*

On a better note, remember how i was explaining about my real bad week and the incident with my phone!!. WELL, i got the call yesterday that my phone WORKS!!!!!!!! *jumps for joy*.. and you might be wondering how much the damage cost...in totally was RM130!!..in my opinion, i think its pretty reasonable, i expected it to be 200 plus!. Thats not all, my contacts could be retrieved!! *yay!!!!!!!!*... I will be reunited with my phone hopefully by tomorrow!!.. *cant wait!*.....i was able to survive without my phone for 1 week..i say thats pretty good dont you??? *winks*


I have to do my PBL now, but im sooooo lazy to get to it!..i hate having the flu..i feel so weak and all i want to do is SLEEP!!..i cant wait to go home to my comfy bed.....Im still waiting for OTH and GG to finish downloading..its taking forever!!!!!!!!!!!

till my next post!

September 1st

A start of a new month, just 5 more weeks till the end of my Semester. At the end of that, awaits my final exam *horror!!*..I cant runaway from it, so i just have to pull it together and face it. There are lots of stuff happening in this month, it's a pretty crucial time for me. I must not let myself get distracted with anything. Trust me, its pretty easy for me to say it..but i have a tendency of astraying easily...September 1st signifies a lot to me, Its not just the start of a new month but also an indication to how long my friendship with a certain someone is. Besides that, there are just heaps of things happening this month.

Firstly, the IMU CUP - cheerleading is on Sept 19th. So there ought to be more practices and i would probably have to try to stay back on saturdays. Im not sure how im going to juggle my time with books and practices. However, i always tell myself if others can do it, so can i!!!! ...moving on to between Sept 15-19th, i have a MOCK Foundation 2 EOS format exam. EOS a.k.a end of semester format consist of SAQ & OBA (one best answer)...ive hardly covered my portions and now i have only 2 weeks to get it all done!!...*goodness*...i guess i have to say "BYE BYE' to my so called 'social' life..its not like my social life was that active to begin with.. *sobs sobs*

Moreover, my bestie is leaving for UK on the 13th. Im really going to miss her, she is going to bristol for a year to continue her law degree. Most of the people i know have either left, leaving or going to leave. I have to patiently wait for 1 year plus before i leave to aussie as well *fingers-crossed*.. withouht dal, well things are going to be quite different. after all she and prax are the only people i hang with when i come back during weekends!! Thinking about it, kinda makes me really sad already...Things would probably be even harder when prax leaves to aussie!!!!!!!! okok..i should really not think about it...im about to get all mopey!

How could i forget my dental OSPE exam on the 23rd!! i dont think listing all these things are actually doing me any help. probably have a panic attack any second!. *thinking positively*...after dhal goes, my weekends are all about studying! studying! and studying!!!...I guess thats about it on what the month of september is going to look like for me!!..


Oh for all those Gossip girls & One tree hill fans!!, the new episodes have started...*woohoo!!*..dont talk to me about the episodes until i have watched it though.. I dont like SPOILERS!!!.....

Happy National Day!

In about 10 minutes time, the "merdeka" celebration will come to an end. It will officially be the 1st of September. The first thing that comes to my mind, is how fast time has passed and it scares me to know that im just 3 weeks away from my dental exam. There is still so much to be done..well maybe ill leave all that whining for another post *hehe*

Coming back to the highlight of the post, its all about malaysia's 51st national day. I wasnt around for last year's 50th celebration which was a much bigger deal. The hype of this year's celebration wasnt really the same compared to last year ( i think)...i was actually in adelaide during that time. Although there was the usual Merdeka eve clubbing parties happening, i was suppose to go for one but because i was back home during the weekend, i couldnt make it. My weekends are like my family time.So when im home, i hardly go out unless its to see prakash and dhal..In that case, its different because i hardly see them as well. So weekends are the only time we get to catch up.

Anyways, since i was not at any clubs or parties, what did i do during the countdown you might ask??..i was actually at home on my laptop watching cheerleading videos on "you tube". I had my own personal countdown, as the clock on my laptop showed 12am..i knew it was the 31st.. Besides it being our national day, it just struck me that it was BASKIN"s 31st!!! *yikes*..i completely forgot about it... Then again, the weather has been really rainy and gloomy,...it isnt the perfect weather to have an ice cream...Thats how i celebrated my merdeka eve, YES i know its not your normal merdeka eve celebration and it might not be so patriotic, .but who really is alll that patriotic and really has that "malaysia boleh" spirit in reality. I think that people just use this day as an excuse to throw a bash and celebrate. Dont get me wrong,theres nothing wrong with that....

Most of my day was spent trying to study and browsing on the internet. I went shopping on saturday with my mum actually. That went pretty well. PADINI actually hiked up their sales to 70% since it was towards the end of the "sale" period. I managed to get a couple of tops i really like..i wish i could buy somemore..i really could have gone crazy *hahah*..but i had to control myself..like what someone said to me before..."i have to FOCUS".......i do however need a pair of black shoes and handbags.. The mystery about how girls always feel like they dont have enough stuff is yet to be solved!!!!!

Coming back to my merdeka day, i basicly spent my time at home. All in all, it was a quiet day.........i talked to my sis in aussie which was nice, i cant wait to see her in november!! ill be going to australia for hols..*yippie*..really looking forward to that.. Lastly, i want to wish my cousin Dr Ganesh... Happy Birthday!!!. (his a merdeka baby)..ahhaha..i doubt there are any benefits to that though...OH WELL....till my next post...

QUICKIES!

Current Emotion : upset, emotional and just really down!

Reason : its been 2 crappy days!! and just plain bad luck!

Comment : i wrote a long post and havent quite decided whether i am going to publish it. Im at a really terrible mood at this point of time. I hope tomorrow will be a better day.. because i dont think i can handle another terrible day as what ive had in the past 2 days. Besides that i said something which probably didnt sound right to some people. I apologise if you took it the wrong way but next time, it would be good if no assumptions were made. There's always this thing called CLARIFYING!... Moreover, there are a couple of things that have hit me..and the most important thing is i DO NOT want to have anything to do with a particular person..We just dont get along and we will never get along. So no matter how nice ive tried to be, its just not going to work!...that's how it works i suppose...

Conclusion : i really need to sleep..or at least try to..

XOXO..

Plain Rotten Luck

Its been a while since i've felt this down and depressed for 2 days. I know it might be hard for you to understand why i feel such and even after my explanation some might not find understand my feelings and emotions. I shall not harbour any ill-feelings to those of you who will feel that way. This is the person i am and will always be that person. So this is how my really crappy and sucky 48 hours of just pure bad luck started



I started having really bad cramps the whole day, YES it was "the" time of the month...somehow during that particular time, our hormones just goes haywire, so i was pretty moody itself. After a long (9-5pm) day of classes..i come back to my place to rest a bit, have my shower and go for the basketball match. Hardly 10 mins me being there,it starts raining...yes i had my umbrella with me..but this "particular" friend of mine decided to take it from me and insisted i do "crazy" stuff once in a while,..and by "crazy" he meant walk in the rain. SO i gave him my handphone to keep in his pocket as i didnt want my phone to get wet. He walked me back to my apartment and while walking pass the pool..i just gave him a nudge. For those of you who know me well..you would know that im not really a STRONG person!! Seriously!!! and of all freaking days, when i gave him that slight nudge..he moved..slipped and fell into the pool. For a moment, i totally forgot that he had my handphone with him. to make matters worse he had his phone, his wallet and another friend's wallet. ..I felt SOOOOOOOOOO bad!!.. i couldnt stop beating myself up for it...It something i just couldnt stop thinking about and blaming myself. How could i have forgotten about my phone? why did i even nudge him? So many things just kept running through my head..and no matter how hard i tried to remove that scene..it just kept playing and replaying in my head!!!!





Thankfully my friend Izzi was nice enough to spare me an extra phone and my sim was working....However, i had no contacts on my sim. The reason was cause all my contact numbers were saved on my phone. Ive had my phone for 2 years....you can imagine the amount of numbers i lost and i dont know how long its going to take me to get back all those number...*long sigh*...Besides that, im really attached to my phone so losing it means a lot to me..So, last night was a sleepless night for me...



Moving on to today, i still couldnt really get over the incident with my phone..The particular "friend" of mine who lost his phone,asked me to follow him to mid valley with him to get our phones fixed. Honestly i really didnt want to go..but i felt bad because i AM to be blamed for what had happened anyways... Once we got our things settled at mid valley, he had to go meet his friends for dinner, and there i was stuck at mid valley alone...with noone to call because i had NOOO contact number!!.. *long sigh again!!*....I decided to spend my time by treating myself to starbucks and buying myself a new pencilbox (something i needed)...it was purple in colour!..i did feel bit better after that!....After walking around i wanted to go back to vista and caught a cab.



The cab ride back to vista cost rm15!...i was short on Rm 1, luckily a couple of seniors i knew were outside vista, i borrowed 1 buck from them and paid the taxi driver. I got back to my apartment to realise i had left my plastic bag which contained the pencil case i bought in the cab....ARGH!!!!.. i had the worse feeling at that moment...i couldnt help but really just have a breakdown... I feel that i was extra sensitive thanks to my damn hormones. The only way i release all that frustration is by letting my "tears" run free...i cant really scream, i was angry and it was just a mixture of emotions..


One good thing was that i had friends who tried cheering me up and just telling me that things will be better. At first it is hard to take it in because your mind isnt thinking clearly, but a good warm shower and sleep really does help!!......So i decided to publish this post as a mean of letting it out, and just not thinking about it ever again. Today was a better day then yesterday and i hope that tomorrow it will be even better. ....


XOXO

I PASSED!

I cant believe i actually passed my CPR exam. Some of you might think that its like the easiest paper to pass. Well actually if you did the pass year paper it kinda is easy to pass. However, IMU has this system where they have a quota for the number of people who MUST fail so they can earn back money (not like they dont have enough) from students. Students who fail have to pay RM40 for resit. About 80 people in my batch failed..and these are like really smart people, so im guessing this whole failing thing is done at random!. I really dont see the need to fail people. Gosh IMU is crappy!! ..So for my friends who have to resit, good luck to ya'll!!,



Besides that, my day has been pretty alright. Excluding the part where im pretty pissed of with the landlord of my apartment. He expects me to do everything, run away to aus and then when i get the maintenance done, he gets angry for doing things without informing him it seems!!! *argh*..well from now on im just gonna bug his life if there's things to get done and im not going to do anything.. Does he really think im so free to get the plumber or electrician!! ..



Moving on, the latest talk in uni is about the Avril Lavigne concert... First she was banned because she was supposedly "sexy"...Common!! its avril!...which part of her anatomy is sexy!!..they should really look up the definition of sexy in the dictionary!...Second reason given was because she was too rock or punk!..i guess they're afraid she might be a bad influence on the young teenagers who would go for her concert. If so!, they should then ban MTV or Channel V!!...Some people just like to blow things out of proportion. Why cant they just look at it as a form on entertainment and leave it at that!!!.. The Third reason was because of the merdeka celebration, i guess they're scared that it might get the people distracted and their "semangat patriotism" might fade away.... The question is how many people actually feel this whole patriotism thing. With the current political happenings in our country, some might not really feel all that patriotic!.. I feel that our government should be slightly open minded. i doubt that one rock concert can change the perception of our society!......After the much heated debate and stories, the show is still ON!!...

My dental Tools!

My Super-cool dental kit!!

Tooth Carving!





Rainy Day

Its been a cold and rainy day since i woke up at 8.30 am. Im definately not complaining though. I like waking up to the cold weather, on a normal day my room gets bright at 7am thanks to the sun!!! The only thing i have to complain about is walking to uni in the rain *sigh*.. especially when i washed my hair the previous rain *darns the rain!*.. vista C is not exactly opposite IMU, its about a 3mins walk. Add to the hair part, my heels gets all soggy by the time i reach class.

Anyways, today has been so far a pretty alright day. Dental class was lots of fun. we had to do a roleplay on "tooth emergence". Its basicly about when your tooth erupts at different ages etc etc. As dental students its kinda important to know all that. So by doing this roleplay it supposedly will help us remember better. The whole play wouldnt have been possible without my classmate PAIGE!.. She did at least 90% of the work..(THANK YOU paige!).. Our lecturers were really hyped up seeing that were the first batch and stuff, they decided to record the whole play *Gosh*..according to Prof Khoo. the video might even end up on YOU TUBE! *lord have mercy*...lets see how it turns out first!.

Med class went well and at 4pm i had cheer practice. It was tiring doing all those jumps and stunts. We learnt new moves and all. No matter how exhausting it is, i still find it fun and im pretty glad Izzi actually made me join it in the first place (thanks izzi!!). Its less than a month to our competition and practice session will be increasing. I really need to find time to also sit down and study!. hopefully this weekend will be more study productive then the last. I really am looking forward to tomorrow. Dont we all just love fridays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its the weekend!!! *woohoo!!!*... Fingers cross, ill manage to slip in some shopping time in my busy weekend at home.. *hehe*

QUICKIES!

Basicly *quickies* is a short update on my whereabouts and what has happened since i last blogged..

So, im back at my vista c apartment as its the start of a whole new week!. My day at uni was tiring as always. had classes from 9-5 and then had my much awaited CPR exam which went well "ok"..i just hope my pass, i really dont want to fail and pay RM40 for the resit...darn IMU,, it should actually stand for International Money-making University!..

My batch MEDT108 played basketball for IMU cup today and we won the match against the seniors. *woohoo!!!*.so me and quite a number of people actually went and supported..luckily i still have my "Loud" (as tallan calls it ) voice..

My older sis (priya) hasnt been feeling well the past couple of days. I really hope she's doing better.. i miss her loads *sobs* *sobs*..get well sis!!!!...Besides that sanjay thaker has gone back to langkawi. Pilot students dont really get a long break..(poor them)..so i guess it will be a couple of months before i see him next..

Well im of to bed now, ive got microbio lab thingy at 9am tomorrow morn...*sigh*..till my next post or quickie

Past Midnight

Its been more than a week since i last blogged, although i really did want to blog at times..i just couldnt seem to find the time to do so!. Its either im too exhausted or well im TOO exhausted!. So its the weekend..well techinically not anymore since its sunday already *sobs*..the weekend just flies by so fast..dont even get me started on how the weekday's go by!.. although everyday consist of 24hours, how does the weekend feel like its less than 24 hours.??? its all a psychological thing i suppose. Anywho! my week was just so packed i could hardly find time to study...

I have all this immunology, pathology and dental lectures just piling up!! *argh*..its really freaking me out, a timetable definately doesnt work for me..and by the time i come back from classes im usually just so drained. I seriously have to get to it though. If i carry on this way, well i do not think my future (FINALS) is going to look good...Compared to SEM 1, i have to say i enjoy medical lectures more than dental lectures, Learning about the anatomy and morphology of teeth can be quite boring and just complicated. (no further explanation needed)..hehe...The medical lectures are different, i have taken a liking towards pathology..eventhough there's heaps to remember..the lecturers are amusing. Many people find them annoying,, i think they're kinda cute. no doubt they ARE weird..im not sure whats with all these patho people and being dramatic..they seem to be making jokes that only their "kind" would understand!. Nevertheless, i do not sleep during their classes and watching them is funny. So you end up having a good laugh!..

Im not really into afterschool/ uni activities. The only thing im involved in is Cheerleading!.*suprisingly*..i wanted to join netball as well, but practices are on saturdays and as you know., im back in klang during the weekend. In IMU, its the season of sports! IMU CUP seems to be the big thing happening. Its basicly an interbatch competition and there are various competitions. You will see that the students are just not book smart, most of them are actually good in other things like sports, pool, etc etc. Anyways the name of the my batch team is BANDITS....dont ask me why, it just is. we have a very weird cheer though, i really wonder who came up with it!.My friend IZZI is taking part in a whole bunch of stuff such as volleyball, futsal and cheerleading. I have no idea how she finds the time to do it but its pretty amazing..

Basicly that is what's been happening in UNI!..so im back home during the weekend and its not a relaxing weekend.I have yet to touch my books add to which i have a CPR exam on monday. I really need to make use of my sunday! GOOD BYE sunday nap time! and CSI series!*sobs*..Im also meeting dal, prax and jay for breakfast at 10.30am..and then i have to get my ink catridge for the printer. I so badly want to go shopping!! BEfore the MEGA sale ends!!!...if only i could freeze time!!!...i also have to finish up my dental carving & drawing since monday is the dateline. Ive done most of it. just need to polish up!. i know i promised pictures...but my facebook pics are updated faster than my blog...its just more easier. So do check it out there!.

I've saved the best for last! and what is it you might wonder..well i went to EUPHORIA!!...yeap you read it right..euphoria by M.O.S,was just mind blowing,...it was truly a fun thursday night. Most of the med and dental people went. Eventhough i had to wake up for class at 9am the next day..i have to say it was worth it. The place was just huge and pretty cool. Its freaking expensive though but on that particular day we didnt have to pay entrance before 10.30pm and ladies get a free drink. Not forgetting our door gift was little shampoo and conditioner bottles from REDKEN!.The BEST part about the club is the vibrating dance floor..yes people it really does vibrate..and im not talking like low vibration but serious stuff *lol*...it all depends on the base of the song.....If you do get a chance ..go check it out!..i did not spend money on drinks..i danced for like 3 hours plus non stop. The music is a mix of house, trans and RNB...

I gues that's about it from me tonight...tomorrow has to be a more productive study day for me (i hope)...hopefully pics will be uploaded next post...till then

I So Aint Lovin It

This whole week has been STRESS-ful *emphasis*, i had classes from 8-5 and then there was CSU, Labs, clinic visits and in between all that just trying to find the time to study. It at times like this when i really do the envy the medical students *hmmph*..Oh how lucky they are, to get up late, and come for afternoon class all fresh while the dental students will be "yawning" in class and basicly quite drained. Then there was the carving, As dental students were suppose to be able to carve tooth. This is suppose to help us to understand the anatomy of the teeth better *yada yada*...somehow i havent got the hang of it (unlike tallan & izzy), so it can be quite annoying.especially when your wax keeps breaking 3 times! *argh*....i keep telling myself to be patient and hopefully sooner later ill get it..practice makes perfect after all (if only i had time to practice)..


Then there is my dental assignment on "hominids". Some of you might have just gone blank at this moment, well "hominid's" are like cave men (lay-men term)..it shows the evolution of men and the different type of species and stuff. Yes! it does sound interesting but putting the assingment together into 4 pages is no easy task and finding the time to do it is another challenge. At the moment its my top priority, i've finished my part *woohoo* but still there's editing and all.. So anyways, it so happens that on thursday my batchmates decide to go to EUPHORIA because it was having this "Girl's Night Out" where boys and girls are allowed to have free entry before 10.30pm and girls get a FREE drink!!..(its good to be a girl *hehe*)..who wouldnt jump at a chance to go EUPHORIA, its by M.O.S (Ministry of Sounds) anyways...add to which its FREE entry & FREE drink!..on a regular basis the club is really expensive!!!..

Im guessing your able to actually see where im going with this, sadly i couldnt go along *sobs* with them because :

1) i had to finish my dental assignment thing

2) i had dental class at 9am

Although some of my other dental friends went, i somehow didnt think it was appropriate since (as mum always say) i had to get my priorities straight!..and i wanted to finish my assignment by today.

Somehow my day didnt seem to be going well, after class i came back to the aparment to refresh before going for cheerleading practice. I then decided to warm up my cha-siew pau i bought the day before.

MISTAKE no.1 : Never eat pau from the previous day, ( not safe)

So i decided to heat up the pau using my microwave.... yes you read it right. MICROWAVE!,.i heated it for four minutes.

MISTAKE no.2 : Never use a microwave to heat up the a pau!.

After that, the pau still felt hard and i put it back in the microwave and heated it for another 4 mins. i then went to my fridge to look for something else. Then smoke started to ooze out of my microwave..i totally freaked and turned it off!...the whole inside of my microwave was black..my pau kinda blew..and it was charcoal black in colour..and the whole apartment smelled like smoke thanks to mua! *silly silly me!!*..thankfully my microwave still works *phew!!*..

Oh! and i found out that im not the only one who didnt know that you couldnt use a microwave to heat a pau!...LESSON LEARNT!


After cheer practice, I was really frustrated and didnt feel like doing my work in the apartment. I needed to get out and do my work. So my housemate (who felt the same) and i decided to go to a place with wireless access to do our work. The first thing that came to our mind was Starbucks, but because we didnt have our dinner yet, we decided to head to Macdonalds. After browsing online for a macd's with wifi, we ended up at damansara.

So we got there, bought dinner and was all ready to do our work.. and guess what!. their server was down. we only were able to connect locally and not to the internet!.... SO ANNOYING!!!!!!!!... and the macd's people were so blur about it. they didnt know what to do...*smacks head*...whats the point of having wifi if it doesnt work!...luckily for me i saved most of my websites and information in my document, poor tallan had to do her PBL instead..at least she manage to finish it!....In conclusion, never go to MAC D's if you want to use the internet!..

I really need to de-stress!!..my cousin bavani is celebrating her birthday at mojo's today!..so that's where im gonna be!!..

Feeling the blues!

Lately, there have been a sequence of events that have happened which lead me to feel pretty down. Add to which the stress of uni life is hitting me and unfortunately ive been unable to handle it well. I guess it is hard to concentrate when there is something constantly bugging you and not resolved. This was a couple of days ago and i do feel a lot better and its save to say that the moment of "blues" has passed and hopefully never return. I have been meaning to blog about it during that phase, however it was hard for me to just sit and blog about it.I'm also not the type of person who blogs about her emotions publicly and stuff.


Anyways the need to get a couple of things off my mind has brought me to write this post. Friendship plays an important role in my life. Since young, somehow i have been very attach to my friends. Its hard for me to get attach but i guess once Ive actually known a person and attached, its hard to let go. Mum used to be worried about this and did advice me to get my priority straight.. * she still does i think*. I have been through my fair share of ups and downs with friends, all those fights, and lies and pain! but if you are able to get through all that and still continue being friends..that's what you call TRUE FRIENDSHIP!..so i guess i can say that i know who my true friends are.


Throughout the schooling phase, its a norm for one to have many different friends, only a small number people will be a constant. In my case, i've been friends with T *names are classified* for about 12 years, S for most of my life since we are related *hehe* and R since standard 6. These are a few of my good friends till today. They are my school and childhood friends. Then there are my college friends and the people i got to know during my high school days and since then we've become very close. Theres J & P whom i know for about 4 years, D since college, my classmates in taylors, buddies in adelaide. Ive bonded with them and truly enjoy their company.

Then there are your really close friends, people whom you spend most of your time hanging out with, going for movies, and just talking to when your low. In my books, well the number of people are very very very limited!.i have to partially blame myself, after all..I'm pretty much secretive and not really open. What is my reasoning to this?? well there isn't really a reason...i only talk or confide in one or 2 particular person.. but my question is what if you lose that person or you cant confide in that person anymore, what is your next move??..

Being an emotional person as well, i do not like being in that position. So at the end of the day i guess being too attached does not really benefit me. Although going through these situations has changed me and helped me to become less dependent. However i do miss having that particular person. I have come across many people who say not all friendships will last, and your close friends will not always be the same etc etc. I refuse to believe them when they said it, and even though I'm going through problems i still will not agree with those people. To me, i will try to do whatever it takes on my path to maintain my bond with my close friends, but if they choose to let go..well then there's nothing much you can do about it.

What Ive learnt is that, throughout your entire life, you will befriend different types of people, not all of them will be good for you, there will be the *bitchy ones* and the ones who try to do harm on you and sometimes the people you care will also do things to hurt you *unknowingly*. ... whatever it is, they will definitely leave a mark, the important thing is to learn and move past it. The bad scars will eventually heal. By moving past it, i only better myself.

On a better note, I'm thankful for having friends who care and try to help me in whatever way they can. Although there are those who are overseas and there are some who are leaving, i know they are worth the trouble.

Reflection

Saturday 11.15pm :

Playing monopoly with myself *sigh*..some might find it kinda pathetic *hint hint prakky*..well i have to admit at time, i myself find it pathetic but i cant deny the fact that it actually helps me get over the boredom. As i sit here, playing with monopoly against my computer and getting frustrated *i keep going to jail, argh!*..i find myself reflecting back on my first week of uni and most of my day. ..lets start with How my week went!

One would definately expect the first week of uni to be a bit relaxing, getting your timetable, going for introductory classes..getting used to new med and dental subjects * microbio & tooth morphology*..at least that was what i expected it to be. I was quite wrong!!.. I did not expect to see a packed 9-6 timetable, and basicly everyday was just exhausting. I not only had classes but i had to do my pbl research and then dental mms preparation! *sigh*..i really do miss my 1st sem timetable and my afternoon naps!!!...i know IMU is trying to help us become better dentist and whatnots..but i really dont get why we have to attend certain classes, PBL and especially CSU!..

How on earth does CSU actually relate to US *dental students*!!..NO were not going to be taking LONG medical history, or pulses..i have to agree that learning how to take blood pressure or pulse is extra information and beneficial..but after having so much to do already..i find it a waste of time. We tend to not learn anything, eventhough we still have to attend classes for the sake of attendance! *frustration*..However, i have to applaud the dental staff and lecturers for making our first week of dentistry quite interesting. learning about comparative anatomy and museum session was actually FUN!! minus the fact that we have to do an assignment on HOMINIDS a.k.a cave men!

Moving on from all the stressful and frustrating topics, among the good things which happened during the week was....

a) we actually got our dental tools *woohoo*. it looks really cute, it comes in this blue colour tool box *pics will be updated asap*..and when you open it..it looks like an art box. this Renfert tool thingy cost RM800!!!! ...

b) we collected our free gift tooth model *pics will be updated asap*..its not the real thing, but because we paid RM875 for it, i guess they decided to give us a free mini version of the teeth..how kind of them..the REAL stuff is suppose to come during the 1st week of august.

c) i went for my 2nd cheerleading class.. YES yes!!! PREMI actually joined cheerleading, im pretty amazed myself. How did it start you might ask??. well it was all because of my friend Izzi who pushed me to attend the practice session despite me telling her that i had NO clue about cheerleading, and im a BUM!!!!.....my housemate tallan thought i would never go for it..well she was definately suprised the day i went for my first practice.. I guess i have to give myself credit for giving it a try *pats herself on the back*....anyways, after the 1st class i actually enjoyed it.....

When 2nd sem started, i had doubts of actually continuing it because of my hectic schedule.Tallan also thought that i would quit, well i guess not. i told myself to actually stick to something and go ahead....so YES. i still am in cheerleading!!

So that was basicly what happened from Monday till Friday, every weekend i come back home to klang. This weekend i had to babysit my younger sis as my parents were out of town!.. i wasnt to please about babysitting..but i really didnt have much of a choice * Big Sister Responsibilities*....Hence there was lots of driving around and staying at home to make sure everything was alright.. nothing exciting!!

I missed my Dental Picnic thingy in Klcc park because of it as well..*hmm*. i did not get much studying done as well, which was frustrating. I cant really explain why im in this weird mood. Its complicated. Somehow the weekend passes by so quickly, and then were back to monday.im already feeling the monday blues....

11.48 pm : well its time for me to go to sleep, i hope to get some work done tomorrow before heading back to bukit jalil.

Movie-Spree!!

There is no doubt that 2008 is the year of movies!..since january a continous wave of fantastic movies have hit our local cinema's.I spent so much time at the TGV bukit tinggi cinema during my holiday. Not forgetting the amount of caramel popcorn consumed *though it was yummy!!* and yes the freezing cinema, it was so cold, after the movie ended i could hardly feel my legs, so after learning it the hard way ( my 1st time at the cinema), i brought along my good friend *mr.sweater* to help keep me warm. Then there's my friend dhalini who wears her short sleeve top and jeans to the cinema., although she does complain about it being cold, the next visit to the cinema is no different *hmm*. i think that the people at TGV Aeon need to get their termometers checked..the place is just too cold for a normal malaysian person!!.

Moving on... some might not agree with my choice of good movies, but this is my blog after all..so what i say goes *hehe*...anyways coming back to the fact that im in the movie mania mood..this is my list of favourite movies of 2008 and the upcoming movies i am looking forward to see.





Favourite chick flick : 27 dresses





-katherine heigl plays the character of a girl whose always the bridesmaid but never the bride.Heigl who shot to superstardom in the famous grey's anatomy, played the character of jane wonderfully in this comedy. My favourite aspect of the part, besides the fact that it was a chick flick *winks* was the story line, it makes you look at bridesmaid's a whole lot differently.







favourite fantasy/ adventure movie : The Spiderwick Chronicles





This movie is about an extremely extraordinary situation when the Grace family moves into this family estate they inherited and are slowly introduced to those creatures through a Field Guide. I enjoy movies that deal with weird looking creatures and that are very imaginative..Spiderwick begin as a book before it was brought to screen.







Favourite absurd creature movie: HEll Boy 2 : The Golden Army







Hell boy 2 certainly lived up to its expectation. Its normally hard for a sequel to do as well as it did compared to the first movie but The Golden Army was totally "artistic in nature" (as esh describes it). this was especially noticeable when it came to its characters! *hint hint (pan's labryinth)*..im pretty sure there will be another episode..



Favourite Comedy...which movie better then : Kung Fu Panda!!!!...




I doubt anyone can resist a big fat cute panda bear.. even more so when Jack Black is doing the voice over. The wide range of characters within the movie added a little bit more spice. *hint hint: the tigress!!*...So my reccomendation is for those of you who havent watched it!! GOOOO get the pirated cd, or catch the movie at your nearest cinema! Dustin Hoffman plays his character to perfection as the cute little sifu!..my favourite character was *hmm*..(to be decided)





My favourite Superhero : Ironman!


The more popular superheroes were Spiderman, Superman, X-men and Batman...i didnt really have a favourite superhero, well that was until i saw IRONMAN!...the movie was very entertaining and relatable to the world's present. It is possible for mankind to create an iron suit, with the current technology but whether you can fly around and shoot missiles out of the palm of your hand is a different matter. That's not really why i chose ironman as my superhero. I chose him because : 1. he doesnt have a girlfriend unlike the other superheroes and their girl problems!! 2. his got a really amazing mansion and collection of cars and finally his suit is just COOL!! hahaha. oh and not forgetting that Robert Downey is good looking!!..glad he manage to overcome his Issues...it was a perfect movie to choose for a comeback.








My favourite movie of the year :.. *this is an easy guess*..Dark Knight!!!!!



The much talked about and awaited movie certainly did live up to my expectation. Im sure it did for many people out there as well. The sad and early departure of Heath Ledger who plays the magnificent joker contributed to the eager anticipation of the movie. There was already much hype about the movie prior to its release. The Dark knight clearly has everything to be an AWESOME movie....Good selection of cast? check. (every character had a story and played a good role in the movie). Good plot & ending? check. Devilish fun? check. Freaky moments? check. ...but im pretty sure this is not the end for director christopher nolan...will there be another Batman?..i guess we will have to wait and see. Do not fret for those of you who havent watch the movie, there is no spoilers here!!...although i have to say, if your not planning on watching this movie.you dont know what your missing!! *hehe*




As quoted from the rolling stone, " The Dark Knight creates a place where good and evil — expected to do battle — decide instead to get it on and dance. "I don't want to kill you," Heath Ledger's psycho Joker tells Christian Bale's stalwart Batman. "You complete me."





There are many moments of the movie i truly enjoyed especially the action scenes..involving the batmobile and the super cool bike!!! and yes also the lamborgini..my heart crushed when i knew what was going to become of the car.. *sobs sobs*. I have no words to describe heath ledger who was mad-crazy-brilliant as the joker. It can be in no way compared to Jack Nicholson take of it in the 1989 Tim Burton's batman. Ledger's performance has definately put him on the pedestal and a deserving chance to grab an oscar!....





Among my favourite lines were " why so serious" & "lets put a smile on that face", not forgetting that evil laughter.. Everytime the joker would appear on the screen, it would just give me goosebumps. Therefore, all i can say is EVERYONE ( eventhough your not a fan of batman) should watch this movie..I have yet to meet a person who disagrees that this movie is just phenomenal...and im definately looking forward to watching it again..





The review by Todd Gilchrist : It isn't an overstatement to call The Dark Knight the most sophisticated and ambitious work of its kind. The Dark Knight qualifies as the first official comic book adaptation that truly succeeds in being a great artistic achievement in its own right.





The upcoming movies to watch :

1. Mummy 3

2. Sex & the city

3. Wall-E

4.Shia Lebouf upcoming movie *not sure of the title" hehe

-till the next post..xoxo-
