A review

Am finally done with burning the midnight oil, walking around like a sleepless zombie and living high on caffeine, albeit from Red Bull- yes i drank Red Bull to keep me awake and energized like an Energizer bunny wannabe, and no i don't take coffee it doesn't work on me, sad huh. So yeah, its finally over but the feeling is still looming like a dark cloud over my head. in short i would say it doesn't feel like am on holidays. heck, i still get guilty feelings whenever am online only to realise that i can be online 24/7 now..and talking about being online this whole 2nd sem has had such an impact on me that staring at the com for oni 6 hours resulted in me having a splitting headache, but stil am online which proves that some people never learn i have very important stuff to do.lol

and dun even let me get started on how horrendous this sem was. time, i was short of it all the time. there were always datelines to meet, assignments to discuss on, lab reports to be handed in, lecture notes to be finished, tutorial to be gone thru, quizzes to be sat for, and an exam in the midst of quizzes was just the perfect icing on the half leaning 20 tier cake to collapse. but collapse it did not, and thats thanks to you darl.

~ i know you know who you are

~ i know you are reading this right now

~ and i know you are smiling

;)

and if that isn't enough exam was a major killer. it was so so shit hard wei. i mean i know pharmacy isn't easy, but this is taking this statement to a whole different level. and to think that its only the 2nd sem *shudder. oh wait, guess what am gonna be in 2nd year. not a very exciting prospect *shudder shudder. but at last 1st year is gone with the wind, and it won't come back to haunt me *fingers crossed.

and and and right after my last paper, which was on last wed, i sat and did a group project which was to be handed in in a weeks time. no la, i no kid you. so believe me when i say pharmacy is not for the faint hearted.
we settled the whole project and handed it in only yesterday, after correcting and making amendments for the umpteenth time. it wasn't our mistake, not wholly no, the lecturer did not specify his needs in proper manner, so the reason for all our frustration. we even met with the dean to discuss about this. did i mention that the Dean is one smart looking man. he was just appointed a month or so ago.

but, even with a project in hand we did take time off to enjoy. it is a very long story and to cut it short

1. Thurs lunch at my place, then sat and did the project till bout 7.
2. went to Subang for dinner- seafood at lala Chong, unfortunately din eat lala T.T
3. came back and did the project til about 3 or so
4. took bath- i forgot to mention that we did not bath before dinner:)
5. slept
6. morning round 8 left to frens place in subang.ditched our stuff there, we were staying overnight.
7. left to Sunway lagoon at round 10.one of the 1st to arrive.
8. had so much fun. burnt feet and all, but stil fun.
9. steamboat for dinner..yum.
10. Kampai for supper- non- alcoholic k.
11. Played 21 and blackjack, o was it 21 and poker, o poker and blackjack?
12. slept round 1
13. next day left to uni to make amendments on the project, 1st of many to follow T.T
14. came back to Sunway Pyramid, had lunch at Manhattan Fish Market and watched Angels and Demons. not a bad movie at all.
15. took train back to my place with bag and wife..lol

tats the summary off all that happened the beginning few days of my sem break..it was fun, but sadly it was marred by many unavoidable absentees, and even worse it did not end in a high note, which i will not discuss about here. i rily pray that things will come back to normal.

i am sorry. i only meant good.

p.s: i got a lot to do this holiday, will be making a list soon.

p.s2: i wanna read, watch and own everything in the list in my sidebar.

p.s3: thank you god for her safe journey back to hometown, and please bring her back to me safely when the time comes.

good night peeps, m off to bed now. the splitting headache is bothering very much

love,

sHarmT

Unofficially..

my new sem starts tomorrow. i am so excited and i am so looking forward to it that i doubt that i can barely catch a wink tonight. did you really fall for that? and please wipe off that shocked and almost revolting look from your face as i was only lying through my teeth. my holiday is being cut so that i can learn the whole Japs invading Malaysia. all over again. you gotta be kidding me right, or so i thought. but no they are very serious in ruining my already short holidays. so i am going for Malaysian Studies tomorrow at bl#$#%! 8 in the morning.

i really don't get this la. why o why Malaysian studies? i do like my history, i find them very interesting. no la i no lie this time. but (this is a big but people) i love world history more than Malaysia's. not that i am saying its any less more meaningless, but isn't Hitler and his moustache more memorable than *insert any Malaysian warriors?? you can think off because clearly i have forgotten mine. and its like an added burden on my already energy consuming and brain power sapping sem. 7 subjects including the above mentioned subject. come gather around i share with you what subjects i will be facing:

• Organic Chemistry II (a spin off of last sems organic chemistry I)
• Basic MedicinalChemistry.
• Basic Pharmacology & Immunopharmacology. (omg. WTF)
• Peripheral Nervous System & Pharmacotheraphy. (is it just me or all my subjects named in order to scare us off. *shudders)
• Communication Skills. (yes very important for me)
• Biostatistics for Pharmacy. ( its probability la, i checked the book)
• and ya Malaysian Studies. (i wonder why this bullet not in orange colour 1)

and to add to my horrors i need to find a fast and effective way to style my hair. laugh if you must. i have no idea at all. nada. sigh i don't want to tie it up, because my ponytail looks nothing like a pony's instead it looks like a mixed breed off stunted dog AND an overgrown bunny tail. T.T and i can't leave it all loose, because my hair has a mind of is own and loves to fall all over my head and covers both sides of my face leaving only my nose and a half of each eyes visible. what is a girl to do? tell me oh sane 1. yes i shall stop now with a couple of p/s's

p/s: Season 4 of Prison Break is starting on 19th. a week after the official commencement of my sem. T.T

p/s 2: I am always craving for food. i even dream about eating them. Patheticnya.

Again!!

If you are wondering wth I'm doing being awake and moreover blogging so late early in the morning, I can explain.

How I wish I could say that I was watching some cool movie on9 or just lazying around reading my fav manga also on9, but alas that is not the case here. Instead I'm up doing my lab report. Yes, I can hear you going "what?! Again?" well, well, its part and parcel of my life now. Sigh.. just finished two practical that need to be passed up tomorrow. Huge sigh of relief. And don't start thinking subconsciously that I deserve it for scramming to finish it at the very last minute. For the record I started doing it on Saturday itself. That's three days before the due date. 3 whole days! Just for the record mind you.

And I have been walking around like a robot. Because I have a stupid backache.

AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

I hate it when my mobility is restricted. I believe the culprit is my study cum computer chair. Its old, losing its cushion and backache causing. Need to change it ASAP! No make it ASAPht. Which is as soon as papa has time. I.do.not.call.my.dad.papa.in.real.life.

And…………… drumrolls please. Although its nothing new, but still.. Yours truly has proven yet again that she is the Queen of accident prone-ness. If you do not know me it is very much true, sadly. I would be the one having cuts that I don't know where it came from, knocking on the corner of the wall while walking, getting my tiny toe strucking the chair legs (this is so damn pain k) and my mom will be cooking and I'll be the innocent passerby in search of snacks when the hot oil from the pan escapes my mom and drops on me instead. Karma o what? So this time I got myself burned by the iron. T.T A small streak of stinging pain every time I come in contact with water. And of all places it is on my thumb, so it stings whenever I bend it also. Definitely not one of my best Mondays. Got the Monday blues perhaps.

Silly

It's so irritating and saddening.

Its one thing not studying for a quiz and doing badly, but

It's completely another thing when u study and then do silly mistakes…

Aaargggghhhh!!!! My microb quiz is down the drain..

Om….

K I've calmed down..

It's just a quiz, not worth losing my sanity over rit.. Hope so.

Let's concentrate on other task on hand, like studying for my introductory physiology quiz. This one is a killer. 13 or so topics all which add up to about…erm.. many many pages of notes that I've to go through memorise. I'm going to die. Period.

I can't wait for this entire quiz to end. So that I can go hang out with my frens for a movie o something. I'm so missing the cinema. And then the I've got to stick my butt to the chair again to study for my finals.. I'm really looking forward to it. Not. It feels pretty strange to really sit and study for like 6 or 7 hours straight. The last time I did that was when I was sitting for SPM. Yes I can hear u asking what about my STPM. The sad truth is I did not give my all for It, because I did not want to do it and I told that to my parents for only a lil less than a 1000 times. Since it fell on deaf ears, I kinda showed my rebellious side by not studying. Yes it is silly, hence the title.

Physio here I come….

hectic

tats the only exact word that can describe my days..even hectic doesn feel suitable..

for one, classes start at an average of 10 in d morning and ends only at 6..yes..6

5 subjects to study for.

3 practicals every week monday, wednesday and thursday.with a due date of 1 week from the date of the practical.

2 tutorial's every week.

and a survey to carry out as part of an assignment for healthcare and pharmacy..!

and not including the extra research need to be done for general chem..

aaarrrggghhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hectic is an understatement..

and I'm yet to go and take a look of the badminton(my passion) meeting..

dropped by d gym the other day, just to have a look.. need some place to release tension ma..and for me exercising really makes me feel a hell lot better..

need to get:
walking shoes, since the other day it rained and it made me realise that my shoes base has a tiny weeny hole that made the rain water go in and flood my legs.

running shoes before i hit d gym..

big bag.to stuff in lab coat, books, files, etc etc.

water bottle.

stationery(i dont have a ruler for gods sake)

and some misc(ear ring, undergarments)

and if you're thinking that i'm the only person in the world who doesn't get everything she needs before going to uni..you're very much right.

i'm the queen of procrastination..so shoot me.

lectures and lecturers..

sigh..m so tired..dead tired..d day started at 6 and its yet to end,cuz i am hogging d com aren't i?lol..

lectures starts at 8,so gotta leave from the house at 7..which leads to me waking up at d crack of dawn at 6..had organic chem for 2 hours..my teacher..no, no correct that..my lecturer is an african..so his english is kinda hard to understand..and i believe he is cracking jokes,but unfortunately we cant rily get it,since his accent is complicated..

talking about accent..i so love my anatomy and physiology(one subject=one lecturer) lecturer's accent..so sexay..reminds me of mohinder from heroes..

today had microbiology oso..mmm...well..i dono wat to say about my microb lecturer,she's o-(pause) kay,i guess..but she seems very strict,which for my poor soul translates indirectly to scary..

other subjects like general chem and healthcare for pharmacy is nothing to shout about,other than the general chem students number is huge,but the room is relatively small, which accounts for the slight irritation that i feel whenever my view is blocked by a ridiculously tall homo sapien.

and my course mates are so 'rajin' k, for 80' clock class, by 7.30 the room is ady half full...i mean what the heck rit..makes me wonder if they actually go back o camp on they camp on the campus grounds,,the possibilities are quite high actually.. and this also makes the tiny voice in my head go 'oh oh..there's gonna be one heck of a competition' but my confident inner voice says 'don't worry its not gonna be that difficult'

yes. i am a dellusioned moron, and thanks for reminding me..

ooh..but m having some guiding from my senior,he is in second year. and let me tell u something he is a gem of a guy..m so lucky to get me as my assigned mentor* he has been giving me all the books that i'll be needing and all his lecture notes with added notes..told u he's sweet..

so now its all up to me to use all this to my advantage.

*uc$i has a unique mentor-mentee partnership, whereupon every 1st year is assigned a 2nd year student to guide and help them throughout the duration of the course..and on a personal note its a really good approach...me like:)
