January 2012 : Welcoming the Dragon

2012-01-17T16:47:00.004+08:00

Hi! Been a long time since I last posted. Last 6 months been a hectic way to end 2011. But many things has happen. Not the main story today.

At least the things that kept me happy are my family, roomates and coursemates and seniors [Uni close friends]. Thank you for always taking care of my well being.

It has been a busy January right from the 1st day; even for a student. And so I decided to change the direction of my blogging. Not that there's much of a difference, but I realize every year aside from the sunny bright side of things, there's also a differently point of view for every different people.

Things I look forward to add into my post are humor, food, POV of the Year, technology concerning the Android Market, more action and drama as a student! It'll be so infused with all these characteristics it'll be a whole new packaging filled with the explosive effect! BOOM! BOOM! KABOOM!

But with a boring layout I guess nothing much can be done.

Thus begins another year as a student's POV!

September 2011: Overwhelmed

2011-09-20T20:43:00.002+08:00

Whenever I see my coursemates, we get all "EMOTIONALLY attached" about being seperated and all. D: God I miss having classes with them.

Thermodynamic for Chemical Engineering seems pretty hard. o_o Is trying to cope up with life here. Basically I'm doing fine, I'm abstaining from rice cause I'm worried this fever will come back.

I'm just vomiting and having stomachache every now and then but I'm surviving.

September 2011: Wheeze Ack...

2011-09-17T21:46:00.002+08:00

I've been vomiting whole morning until I cannot TAHAN. The doctor gave me a Jab to stop my vomiting. Kinda did the trick. I even vomited my own bile.

I'm not sick anymore [PRAYS DAM HARD THIS WILL STAY LIKE THIS FOREVER], tomorrow's gonna be a long day, I really have to be mentally prepared for what's needed for my brain to absorb tomorrow.

I'm a strong girl yes, but I'm not always strong alone. I will still trust in God's arrangement.

September 2011: Back Home, Surprise!

2011-09-14T14:01:00.003+08:00

Hi, =) I'm back in KL again. [What the hell? So fast?]

Cause I've been on high fever which refused to subside. Till my eyes turned reddish like a Vampire.

So this is what happened, until I'm forced to return back to my home, away from my lessons.

On the night I arrived in my hostel, I started feeling feverish, but I ignored it and continue to attend my 8.00am Lab. I started to develop high fever so I went to see the doctor. Thinking it was a normal fever, the doctor prescribed to me the basic medication.

1. Paracetamol [First stage fever relief]
2. Vitamin C [Boost Immunity]
3. Something to stop my vomitting

After eating medicine, I went to Statistics class and my fever suddenly got worst again. After class, I went back to sleep. My fever refused to cool down. And I started to get worried. Called my friend to accompany me to see the doctor in the clinic again. They gave me a bag of IV Drip and some injection to boost my immunity and changed my precription to:

1. Pontalon [Second stage fever relief and painkiller]
2. Flanil [For body and muscle ache]
3. Some antibiotics

The doctor gave me an advice to eat rice, take bath with cold water especially my hair. When we got back at the hostel, Fong Ling cooked porridge for me to eat cause I didn't eat for the whole day due to loss of appetite while I had my bath.

After eating I went back to sleep, and I can only remember I drank so much water till I wanted to vomit. My head was spinning and some much in pain, I really thought I was going to die. The experience was so mindfuckening. Nothing seems to cool down my fever. My roommates kept on wiping my body, gave me water, came to touch my forehead. I was burning with high fever.

My parents got so worried, they came down from KL last night [my father's actually sick, my mother's actually busy, which is the reason why I never informed them bout my fever earlier], sent me directly to an experience doctor who actually got pissed off at the medication given to me by these University doctors.

She diagnose me as "Chu Mou Tan" [Pig Fur Fever] in Cantonese or A.K.A Typhoid in English.

"Chu Mou Tan" to put it simple is high fever. But it resembles dengue in a way that our fever will fluctuate. If left too long, we can die. Even though it has subside, it can come back again to attack us if we take in the wrong food again. To play safe, we must take care of what we consume for 1 month. We cannot take bath [EWW], eat rice, IV drip is useless on Typhoid patients, cannot be given injection, or use normal medication methods to cure.

So she gave me a few unknown medicines which is kinda doing pretty well for me so far. My fever subside. Seriously mindfuckening shit. I don't ever want to go through that again.

Because of this, I have to catch up with 1 week worth of lessons by next week and Quiz and Lab report due on Monday. Sigh.

September 2011: Registration Complete!

2011-09-03T07:51:00.002+08:00

Okay, so one of my worries is finally OVER.

I was up from 12am till 3.30am [still failed to register] and then by God's forgiving fate I suddenly woke up at 5.30am to register [succeed] ALL our subjects. Except though, I got separated the most from the gang. =D At least I'm taking it easy [I've grown up] although I will miss playing with them during lectures when it gets boring. But it's a good thing too, we'll have more conversations during our Night Outings! So it all works out in the end. Separation makes the heart yearns~

For now, I gotta maintain my 3.92 GPA since this semester is going to get rough without my friends beside me =(. Like when those times I blur out or couldn't solve my problems, they're always there to save me. =x Guess fate wants me to grow up again this coming year.

I'm gonna miss so many people when I leave for University again. :D But at least I'm still in contact with my WingMans *winks winks* BroCode FTW, SisCODE awesome much!

July 2011: WhatsApp

2011-07-25T22:56:00.006+08:00

Is GOD of SMSes.

Jun Lin recommended me a long time ago, but he gave me the wrong name. Until recently Shan Lin showed it to me. Save so much on my SMSes, I spend less time on MSN thanks to my instant application. I can SMS anyone, via 3G User who has the same application for free. For both Symbian and Android Users. =) Google it!

Btw I notice a pattern here. Is it me or do you also find gays are more extrovert and outspoken about their thoughts and braver than normal men? It makes them incredibly sexy if men know what they want. And how come some of us assume gays are shy and girlish?

July 2011: Customers that makes your day

2011-07-24T10:31:00.002+08:00

Imagine a customer comes up to you and innocently asks, "I want a 1000mg Viagra". That totally made my day, especially the hectic yesterday. We [customer included] all had a good laugh.

Nanang came by today and commented how I still have my baby face, which hasn't mature at all. Now I'm beginning to feel concerned when everyone around me started calling me baby names. It's no wonder no one took me seriously.

My target now is to be 5kg lower. [24/7/2011]

I want to be healthy, so I gotta push myself and make a change. I need to hit 62kg to be at least healthy.

July 2011: The Awesomeness of Google Translate

2011-07-22T21:42:00.004+08:00

Today we had customers from Russia who complained to us that something's bothering his ear.

He was conversing well in English, until we hit dead end when we asked him to describe about his ear. So we press on questions with simpler words like, "Hard?","Itchy?", "Blocked?". But he couldn't describe anything else.

So I recommended Google translate to converse with them. And my god wasn't it awesome! It's like Google just cultivated cohesiveness in between the language barrier. It's like suddenly, we understood what we're all talking about in unison.

Oh and in the end, his ears are hurting. So he wanted some painkillers. =) I just enjoy seeing a satisfied customer walk out the door. I hope I can absorbed as much knowledge to share with them. I seriously don't want them learning the wrong things.

June 2011: Pumpkin Delight

2011-06-27T23:18:00.003+08:00

One of the many recipes that goes well with a healthy old Halloween treat. Homemade Char Siew Pau.

June 2011: Birthday Boy

2011-06-21T21:55:00.005+08:00

Vivaz really fails on Night Captures. But it's still a delicious to eat! Love the chicken marinade recipe. It's a meal prepared specially for bro's birthday and belated Father's Day.

Just now I sat with mom as usual for a mild chit-chat. We always do this little daughter-mother bonding to share our stories ever since I went to Gambang, Pahang. Apparently her story today was a very sad one. It seems my newborn cousin has a weak heart which could not pump blood all over his body properly. He's also suspected to be a Down-Syndrome. My uncle was devasted but it's great to hear how both husband and wife accepted it with an open heart and would do anything they could to save their little baby boy.

Sometimes, things happen and it's all fate and karma. My sister is a Down-Syndrome too but she was lucky the family loves and cherishes her, from father to brother, mother to sister. All of us are willing to sacrifice our everything for her. And bless her, she has shown her love in her own very special way.

I was just thinking about how important it is to take care of our health and what we eat especially growing girls. We need to take care of our body because it's going to be carrying our future generation. It's best to bless these children with a good health too for they deserve fairness.

Edit: I just feel sad for them because we've been there. It was a blow for my mother right after losing my second brother. So I strongly feel empathy for them.

June 2011: Sinfully Delicious

2011-06-20T10:21:00.003+08:00

Homemade and self decorated. It taste as good as it looks. Haha...so sinful.

June 2011: Irresistable

2011-06-19T18:09:00.006+08:00

Say hello to Vivaz, more pictures less words.

Edit: That's the very same cup with Nicole David's signature on it.

June 2011: Neat and Clean

2011-06-19T15:55:00.001+08:00

I love the simple look now. So much better than those crying for attention backgrounds I had.

With my new Sony Ericsson Vivaz, my 8.1Megapixel pictures are going to do most of the talking. I hope, haha. And yes, I just showed off on my blog cause I'm happy! Haha.
