My 1st Semester of University Life

After nearly 9 months... I'm back! 


Well, from the last post, I listed down all my choices and I was totally so confusing at that time... But, I've finish 1 semester in USM Kampus Kesihatan, Kubang Kerian, Kelantan for nutrition course... Well, yeah, it's my first choice for USM, it's just that I didn't aspect it to be in Kelantan...

So many things happened in my 1st semester, I get chicken pox during orientation week and went back during that week, missed kem pimpim siswa, and went back registering all the courses alone with a head full of question marks. Thanked God for sending me a great senior, Ng Yong Siang. Yong Siang, you really helped me a lot back then, really don't know what to do if you were not there to help me that time hahaha...


1st week was really tough for me. Everyone already formed their own group of friends and I was just starting to get to know them. Everyone already started with all the assignments and I'm still so blur about the subjects. Everyone already started to get use to the life there and I still feel homesick... Really a stressful 1st week for me... Once again, thanked God for sending me such kind and helpful course mates to help me out. Ng Lee Teng and Lee Ying Huoy! Thank you ar! ^^

It's really amazing how a person can adapt to a totally new environment so fast. I began to get use of the campus life, busying with all the assignments, activities, continuous assessment aka CA (our test), and I don't feel homesick any more. Sometimes, I even felt that I'm enjoying my life there hahaha...

You might think that what made my life so interesting over there. Kelantan is just a place without TGV or GSC or MBO, without Greenbox or Redbox or Neway, without Jaya Jusco or 'KB Parade', no McD delivery after 12am and no mamak stall. At first, I really think that Kelantan is a pathetic place, but think twice, it's a perfect place for studies hahaha...


My nutrition family is the main reason I get to enjoy my life in USMKK. This big family brought so much joy and support to me during the 5 months in USMKK. However, other courses friends also shared many joyful moments with me, especially the nutrition's best friend, the dietetics. 

Nutrition Happy Family ^^

Nutrition + Dietetics + Forensic

In the beginning, SKs will only hang out with SKs, and SPs and SGs will only linger among themselves. Thanked to our USMKK Chinese tradition, all 1st year Chinese have to come out with a Mooncake Festival Night and this is the thing that brought us all together. Although the days during preparation were so tiring and exhausting, some even skipped classes just to finished up the works, we all felt the same kind of satisfaction at the end of the day. Our Mooncake Festival Night might not be the best, but it is the best for all the 1st years ^^

The next thing that made me life complete in USMKK is my brothers and sisters in Christ. By attending CF, choir practice and church services, I really felt that God is always with me no matter what condition I am dealing to. I realised that my spiritual life grown quite a lot in these few months. I prayed so hard for a christian room mate before entering USMKK yet God gave me 3 Malay room mates. I was like "God! What is this?!". I need someone to encourage me to read God's word everyday as I'm really very lazy when it comes to reading the bible. But, God always have His perfect plan. My 3 Malay room mates pray everyday, and don't know for how many times. This really encourages me to read the bible and pray too as I don't want to loose to them ><   I truly understand God's purpose for giving me 3 Malay room mates now. 

Last but not least is wushu! Yup, for all my non-USMKK friends information, I'm learning wushu now hahaha... Just started learning for a few months, only know some basic moves such as some 基本功, 五步拳 and the 1st part of 南拳. Now practising like hell for 2011's CNY performance >< Although the training were very tiring especially the stamina training part, I really enjoyed it. Many thanks to all our wushu club seniors like 长拳爸爸-Ong Ee, 南拳妈妈-Vivian, 太极奶奶-Jia Miao, our blur blur president-Chee Keong, our cool cool China-looked senior-Ming Jian and the most 多余 Yi Chuan. Thanks for being so patient while training us. We will try our best! We will train hard! We will put our best show on CNY night! 

南拳开式！

Time passed so fast, 1 semester had ended and more challenges are waiting ahead. Really can't wait for next year's Christmas Night and CNY Night >< Thanked God for placing so many great friends in my life in order to help me through my campus life without my family around. May God continue to bless those around me and me as we continue our journey as a student in USMKK in the 2nd semester ^^ 

Humans Do Their Best and Let God Do The Rest

I have decided all my 8 choices in UPU and 4 choices in USM. Before I choose my choices, my parents, especially my father kept on asking in what field I will be working in after I graduate if I choose that course, how much money I will make and stuffs like that. It's deniable that the main purpose we work is to earn money, but the problem for this moment is not about future. I don't even know whether I will get the courses I want in Uni. So why think so much.

My mother kept on ask me to become a teacher so next time can open a kindergarten or day care centre. The problem is, I don't like to become a teacher!

After thinking back, I've decided my choices.
1. Bacelor Sains (Pengajian Makanan) - UPM
2. Bacelor Sains dan Teknologi Makanan - UPM
3.Sarjana Muda Sains Makanan dengan Kepujian (Sains Makanan dan Pemakanan) - UMS
4.Sarjana Muda Sains Makanan dengan Kepujian (Teknologi Makanan dan Bioproses) - UMS
5.Sarjana Muda Sains Makanan dengan Kepujian (Perkhidmatan Makanan) - UMS
6.Sarjana Muda Sains Makanan (Perkhidmatan Makanan dan Pemakanan) - UMT
7.Sarjana Muda Sains Makanan (Teknologi Makanan) - UMT
8.Sarjana Muda Sains dengan Kepujian (Kimia Sumber) - UNIMAS

USM
1.Sarjana Muda Sains Kesihatan (Kepujian) - Pemakanan
2.Sarjana Muda Teknologi (Kepujian) - Makanan
3.Sarjana Muda Sains Gunaan (Kepujian) - Biologi Gunaan
4.Sarjana Muda Sains Gunaan (Kepujian) - Kima Industri

There are too many uncertanties. I can't predict the future nor can I know which course is the most suitable course for me. I don't know what will I be and I don't know how much money I can make. All these are beyond my understanding, intelligence and conqure. The only things that I can do now are leave all these problems to a greater person to solve, God, have faith in Him that He knows what is the best for me, have faith that He will guide me and learn how to accept His will.

1 Litre of Tears

1 Litre of Tears (Ichi Rittoru no Namida) is a Japanese drama based on a real life tragedy that happened on a 15 years old high school girl, Aya Ikeuchi. Aya is a brilliant girl in academic and sports and she is very pretty too. This drama is so nice! The illness that ends Aya life's was spinocerebellar ataxia, a fatal and incurable disease that restricts the muscle nerve to function normally and finally handicaps the body. I cried for every episodes LOL.... While I was watching, I kept on thinking, what if I get that kind of disease. Can I accept it? Can I still be smiling? Can I go through all the though times?

However, I've learn some homework from this drama. Health, family love and friend's kindness are not something that you get naturally. All the above are granted by God without asking any repayments. But, if we do not appreciate them, one day, God will take them all back. So friends, appreciate what you have now!

Headache ~ ~

Time to choose which Uni and choose which course. So headache! Choose already also don't mean that I will get the course and Uni I want. What to do? Pray hard loh hahahaha

STPM Results.........

25/2/10 is one the important days in my life. Well, I knew I won't get 4.00 so I'm not that sad when I get my results. But I'm a bit disappointed because I don't have any A, only A-. Maybe God has a course that suites me even better. So, just see what God has planned for me hahahaha...

Congratulations to those with excellent results!

Cheap = Free ?

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR & HAPPY VALENTINE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday morning I went to Tesco with my mum at 8am because my mum said there have a lo t of cheap and fresh vegetables, chickens and fishes. When I reached there, I was really shocked of the crowd and how they behave. There were so many aunties and uncles fighting for the stuffs. I tried to get some too but I was no match with them LOL! They just kept on squeeze and push. They don't care whether you are a girl or senior citizen, all of their eyes focused on what they want.

It is undeniable that the prices were really low and the stuffs were fresh too, but do they have to be like this? They still need to pay for the things... Plus, the uncles over there were so not gentlemen! They squeezed me out of the queue!
