Oh God. Presentation was....a blunder like always. Nothing new. I think the problem was mostly, and I would say entirely due to the LANGUAGE. If it was in the International Language called ENGLISH, I would have done better and explained better without stuttering. And to have stupid people asking me stupid question in front of the whole class and no one understood what the dude was saying....it's just "great". I think the dude took the term "freedom of speech" too far. If you were to beat around the bush and make sense, it would still be fine. But if you beat around the bush and around the entire world and still not make any sense, means you're a total idiot for sure. Oh well, it's done. Can't help it anymore. I have no idea what to expect from Moral. Really... It's termed the "Dumb Subject" although I learned a bit of "dumb" things in class.
I got a shock and was quite taken aback when I received the email about expectations and people doing wrong things. Oh God. I don't know who did the "wrongs", but it sure ain't me. Somehow find the email rather.....don't know how to say. Urgh....living up to expectations.
Body seems to be malfunctioning. Started shaking and feeling weak plus nausea after dinner. As a Biomedical Science student, I seriously have no idea what's wrong even after studying so much. Great isn't it??
Oh....my endocrinology test and management principle test is over.
I thought I wouldn't make it to finish reading for my endocrinology test yesterday night. The lecturer rushed like mad. She purposely went the extra mile to finish up till the topic she wanted to take out for the test and asked us to read up on our own. Isn't that great? Yeesh... Although I fell asleep so many times while reading, I managed to finish all the chapters somehow. But it felt like crap....head heavy and you've got to force yourself to get up and open your eyes to look at the damn notes. Amazingly, I remember what I read.
Ok. So, endo test passed. Then, there was management test which covers 6 freaking topics. All memorizing. Brain in low capacity mode. I started reading for the test today itself, at 11am. Starting from chapter 1. Hahaha.... I managed to finish reading all the chapters for your info, and went for the make up test at 6pm. And so, I just sort of vomitted out all the info. Now left with an empty head once again.
Sigh...so many things to be done. Looking forward to the Global Youth Symposium. Still got to go do a bit more shopping before the sale is gone >< The Star has got to give me my RM 500 now...like now!!! Poor people like me need it =p
And then R.AGE is over!
Yesterday, a whole bunch of us UTARians went to Ipoh to participate in R.AGE organized by The Star. It was hot!! Like blazing hot. All of us got at least a certain degree of burn. Well, we thought of just going there for fun. Most importantly is the fun part...don't want to worry bout the rest 1st. The games reflected the things people in Ipoh do in the olden days for a living. There was making the soy milk, cleaning bean sprouts, calculating using abacus, home building, pulling some carts, getting water the old fashioned way and mining for tin. You would think that all those would be easy...but it wasn't.
My group started off with the soy milk extracting. We had to pound the soy beans to get them juice out. Which was....so little and crazy. Plus, we spilled the water that we were supposed to add in to get more "juice". So yeah...we had a hard time. Then, we cleaned bean sprouts. Goodness, now I pity those people who clean bean sprouts everyday. It's not complicated but its very very time consuming.
After that, we went on to calculating with abacus (Back To Basics). Ok...the concept of the game differed slightly from the original way of using abacus. But, it was easy to master for those who remembers how to use the abacus...like me. Haha. And...to my surprise...some people's maths are even worse than mine although I'm rusty after so long of not using maths. How much is 13-6?? Do you get 4?? Swt big time.
And then, we mined for tin using some super huge plates a.k.a. "dulang". Obviously, mining it would be from the sand, and the sand would be filled with water as well. Sigh...We had to hold up the huge plate which wasn't light and find for the awfully small tins. And so, because I was standing on the end where the water flows down into the bucket, my pants was filled with mud water >< Yeah, I was incharged of pushing down excessive water and sand.
Hmm....building the house was ok. My group was the only group that managed to build finish the houses in the time given. Wootz~!! Pulling the carts wasn't that easy as the name sounds. All the girls were sitted in the cart n the guys had to pull them across a given distance and the wheels of the cart can not touch the groud. It had to go on planks. So, I was the only girl whose role was to shift the planks and not sit in the cart. And, there was a time, one of the wheel almost ran over my finger. Swt...It would have been gone if it really ran over my finger. Trust me.
Ok. So the preliminary round was over and we had lunch and waited for the results as to who's group goes into the finals which will be in Papan, Ipoh. My initial thinking was that we might not be the ones going. And then, they announced that my group was one of the top 3. Woah...happy d. And then, we were put in comparison to the beige team. Suspense.....and we got to go to the finals!!! It was crazy!!
I was hoping all the way that we won't have to enter or even pass by house No. 2. Go find out online why I said so.. When the bus was driving near the cemetary, me and my friends were saying, "don't tell me we're stopping in front of the cemetary". And we really did....right opposite of it. Omg...swt.
In Papan, we were split again into smaller groups of 10 people. Our task was to create a presentation out of the things that we learn with the task given to us then. And so, we split up into pairs to go handle the tasks given and gathered back at around 5.30pm to do a compilation of everything and prepare for the presentation. We went back to the Casuarina hotel where there was dinner waiting for us. It was good...hehe. I enjoyed the tiger prawns the most =D Anyways, so each group had to do their presentation. My group did a lot of impromptu stuff which I helped incorporate in between. Looking at all the otehr groups, we decided that it was ok if we didn't win. The experience was good. Then, they announced that my group was top 3. Whoa!! I went from a non-responding brain to a fully operational brain...for like few minutes. Then it malfunctioned again due to fatigue. Lol.. And then, the 3rd place was announced. It wasn't us!!! And so...we got 2nd place out of the whole race!! Wootz~!! Unfortunately, we missed the 1st prize which had free handphones for all the group members. But nevermind, 2nd place is good as well.
It was truly great although we came back seriously, awesomely tired. I can still feel its effects till now. Yeah, I was in hibernation till about like 5pm just now. Am grateful that my teammates were very nice and fun people. Got to mix well with all the girls although I was the oldest there. Sad that we had to leave cause we can't joke around the dinner table anymore but grateful we left cause I really had no energy anymore. All in all, the experience was awesome. Never would have gotten to know so much about Ipoh and also the town Papan if it wasn't for R.AGE. Plus, we came back winners with money...of course happy what =p
First....had a gathering with random people yesterday. Really random. You'd think that different cliques would not mix together. We'd prove you wrong. Hehe. The gathering turned out pretty well. Unexpected people showed up. I was quite surprised myself. Haven't seen some of them for almost more than 2 years. It's good to have caught up with them again since some of them are back for the holidays. And then...came the most hilarious part of the day. Actually, it was neither any of us' birthday. We were having dinner in TGIF by the way. And...like we all know, TGIF does birthday celebration for their customers who are celebrating their birthdays there. So, our Miss Priscilla came up with a brilliant idea, that is for one of us to fake that it was our birthday then. After a long time of deliberation....the "birthday boy" arrived. And so, it was Zhao's fake birthday yesterday. Poor Zhao, sorethroat till can't say anything and everyone started singing happy birthday. Then...the TGIF people came, with their celebration for Zhao, and the cake, and he had to make his "speech" while standing on the chair, at the same time..he had no voice. Haha!! After TGIF, we head on to Station 1 cafe where a 2nd celebration for Zhao's "birthday" was held. Hahaha!!! Zhao was speechlessly happy XD
In short, the randomness was good in a way....should have more of it....
Today is the official SRC hand-down ceremony. Due to yesterday night's gathering and I got home quite late, plus doing assignment after I got home, I slept like 4hours? On top of all the insufficient sleeps that I had the past few weeks, I was in a fatigue state. Like a (@.@) state literally. So, thanks to the jam and all the slow poke drivers on the road, I got to campus late but in time to follow the UTAR bus to PJ campus. The fact is that, the bus driver was a major pain in the a**. I don't get motion sickness from taking a bus up and down from genting but I get motion sickness thanks to this idiot that drove us from our campus to PJ campus. Not to mention, my stomach was dead empty. I was suppose to eat something in PJ but didn't managed to cause of discussions and all. And so...the journey back was even worse than the journey there. Me and Nicholas got sick. Ok, Nicholas was worse...the dude was pale. Alright, back to the ceremony. Well, it was....like normal...boring. Used up my time which I could have used to study. Aihs. But, in a way good also. Got to meet other SRC members of other campuses and also some officials.
On the first day of the "job", got discussion for an upcoming joint event already. Sigh... Need to pump up a little bit of energy for RAGE tomorrow.
In case you're feeling stressed up like I am...please watch this with full attention.
Enjoy people...
I'm sick once again.
Flu + nose block + cough + sorethroat + extreme headache = MAJOR BITCH (and you're probably wondering why I put these "wonderful" things in such a colourful way)
Yeah, though I'm not suppose to curse but I can't help it. I've got to study for Microbiology, Endocrinology and not to mention, I haven't finish my clinical biochem report yet. Didn't even touch it. Grr... *faints*
Now, what can I do when my vision is oh so blur now and my head is so light that I'm able to faint any moment?? Hmm....let me see. Oh ya...study. Life revolves around studying and assignments and studying again.
There should be a course where you study movies and all you do is sit down and watch movies and rate them. Yeah...that would be good.
I was in Don Sushi earlier. Yeah, with me having all the nonsense flu and all. I asked my mom, "what if I opened all the plastic container that's covering the sushi on the belt, and sneeze on them (obviously excluding mucous). Would they give me the sushi for free?" So...mom gave me the OMG look. Plus, when going down the escalator, I walked the wrong way. Instead of walking to the escalator, I walked the other way. Yeah...signs of possibly 15% brain damage. Either that, or the fever is burning my brains out.
Ok. This was just another random blogging to release SOME stress. Thank you for wasting your time. Now, back to work..
I need to breathe. Oh wait, let me correct that. I need to die. Like now...
Highly doubting my own capabilities. Trying to balance things and when I eventually do, some people need to come and topple them over again. Going to run out of air and energy soon and might just land myself in the hospital. Oh good, first hand exposure of the hospital and being a patient there. Great...looking forward to it.
Realised something today from a song. And I find that it's pretty true or more like it's becoming true by the day. I'm losing myself to somebody I'm not. Plus, I find myself sleeping very often. Like whenever I have to think about something, I just get sleepy and I tend to sleep. And I don't get up at all till its the next morning, regardless of the time I fell asleep the night before. Signs of evading things I guess. Running away from thinking about things which I have to consider every night. This is the time where I really mean.. "Lord, help me". I desperately need a holiday. Even a 2 days 1 night holiday would be fine at this moment. Just take me away from everything... Feel like I can barely handle it and I might just jump from a building. Urgh...what Michelle said is right. We FES students need a mid-semester break. Break from all the SHIT. Totally agree...
Well, birthday's gone. Although I wasn't in a mood to celebrate anything this year, but, I do thank my ex-RCM committee members for doing something for me. And thanks for getting my face with cake as well. Luckily I got my immediate revenge. Anyhow, no pics at the moment. Will grab/steal some soon to upload here.
Other than that, spent dinner with gracie in our usual place. Had some drinks, got a little high cause I didn't know what I downed. Then hit barcelona with Jini. Note: Barcelona is dull on tuesdays. So, had the flaming lamborghini and a couple of beers. And.....got drunk. Yeah...it didn't look pretty and I know I said some stupid things. Thank God, only Jini heard that. Lol. So yeah, that was it. Just that plain one day of turning 21. Insignificant...
With the recent SRC election, things didn't look good. It didn't turn out good as well. If "those" people manage to read this, all I got to say is, "if you think you can do a better job than me and be a better leader, then go right ahead. I'm not stopping you". There's no point talking when you can't do SHIT. I'm fed up with people saying things and thinking that they're better but does nothing. DO SOMETHING THEN!!!
Tired... Everyone has their limits. And mine isn't too far away.
