~回忆~

Recently, my life has been stuck somewhere due to some reasons..and i do not have any proper time to blog..

I was unable to do my lab reports and assignments PROPERLY..but i managed to finish them somehow (although all of them are low-quality work)..by sleeping at 3am everyday and waking up at 7.30am since 12th of February..working nonstop..

(Recalling back...)
Feb 19 - Microbiology quiz
Well..no comments here..the questions are like..erm..totally copy and paste from the tutorial questions..and somehow..i didn't know how to do some of them..i really dunno what am i doing at that time..i really hate my microbiology lecturer..won't tell who is he/she here...

Feb 20 - Endocrinology quiz
Studied quite hard for this..but still unable to do some of them..I really like this lecturer - Dr. Soon..a very patient lecturer and i really learned loads of things from her lecture..the quiz questions are okay..but i really couldn't recall some of the answers..I have limited memory capacity..that's why..

Feb 23 - Clinical Biochemistry Test 1
This is the subject i scared the most..imagine remembering the causes, symptoms, defective enzymes and treatment for 9 types of Glycogen storage diseases, each with different names of the scientists who found it (eg: Von Gierke's, Pompe's, Cori, Andersen, McArdle, Hers and etc..Who knows u might see my name one day..YY syndrome..lolz..)..plus several other diseases like hypercholesterolemia (2 types), hyperlipoproteinemia, hyperlipidemia, Diabetes (2 types + Impaired Glucose Tolerance, Impaired Fasting Glycemia and Gestational Diabetes), myocardial infarction (aka heart attack) and etc..the scariest thing is that you have case studies..which means u have to identify the symptoms and diagnose what disease the patient have according to the lab test results.. (p/s: most of the diseases have very similar symptoms..that's why its so hard to differentiate them..)

Remembering them requires a lot of hard work..including explaining them to my friends..as in "IF you have this this this disease..you will have these symptoms because blah blah blah..and then eventually it will lead to coma/death/mental retardation and etc..so u need to treat the disease buy doing this and that..." Eventually..my friends complaint that i'm actually cursing them..lolz..But thanks to them..i managed to remember some of them quite clearly...sorry guys..

Now u might ask..How i did?
Well..no comments here..i did quite badly..i guess..
Despite of so much complaints..i like this subject though..
Fun to learn..but terrible for tests..

Feb 24 - Moral assignment due date
I really don't understand the point of learning LAN subjects (namely Pengajian Malaysia, Pendidikan Moral and Bahasa Kebangsaan). However..no matter how i hate it..i still have to study it..no choice..This assignment is so horrible that it made 2 of my group members cried and wasted my time and energy..and all the last minute work really caused me a lot of trouble..I only managed to finish it on the night before that..and i do not have a printer..so..no choice..i have to go out to new town and print..

Well..that day we only have class at 11am..so i slept till around 8.30am and cycled out around 9.15am with my room mate to print..So we cycled there..printed and bind the assignment and we came home at 9.50am feeling so relieved and we decided to take 10.05am bus to UTAR to observe out bacterial culture..so we happily walked to the bus stop and sat down..Somehow..i decided to have a look at the assignment..and i realized that i left out an important paragraph typed by my group member..so..both of us rushed back home..and cycled to my friends house to ask her to print..and at 10.05am..we cycled AGAIN to new town to bind the NEW pages in..after doing so..we cycled back and reached home at 10.15 and we managed to take the 10.20am bus to UTAR..

What's the big deal then? Imagine the usual time we take to cycle to new town is around 5 to 7 minutes..plus printing and binding u need around 5 minutes..and cycling back u need another 5 to 7 minutes (normal speed)..BUT we managed to travel back and forth in 10 minutes!!! (imagine our cycling speed..I think its around 40km per hour..lolz..) Our leg muscles were so fatigued (due to the build up of lactic acid) until we couldn't even stand properly after that..

Feb 28 (sat) - HR mid term test
This test almost made me scold bad words (i don't do so normally)..WHY?

1 week before the test..our lecturer said:" Next week is your mid term test and the test will cover from Chapter 1 to Chapter 6, which is what i taught today..Focus more on Chapter 1 to 4 if you want to pass only..if you want to score..then u have to read the remaining 2 chapters as well.."

Fine..on thursday..I studied and understood the first 4 chapters..However..i really couldn't understand anything in Chapter 5 and 6..I looked up the text book and studied..until i understand..it tooked me 1 whole day (friday) to study this..and i only have a few hours to memorize them..

On sat..we cycled at 2pm to uni for the test..nvm here..as i opened the question..my reaction was like "OH MY GOD!!"..not because of the questions are too difficult..in fact..the questions that came out was ONLY from the FIRST 3 CHAPTERS!!! Couldn't describe how frustrated i was at that time..and because i took a lot of time to study chapters 5 and 6..i forgot most of the things in Chapter 1..(I couldn't even answer the disadvantages of franchising!!!Grrrrrrr........)

March 1 - Famine 12
Community Service Society organized this and i decided to be a helper..quite a nice experience though..nice games and i made some new friends..

However..the most remarkable thing that happened on that day was as described below..

2 or 3 days before this event..i thought that we had to hand in our nutrition assignment on monday (2nd March)..Besides that..there is also a clinical biochem lab report to be handed in on the same day..So..i decided to finish my nutrition assignment by saturday so that i can print it on sunday..I rushed my assignment until 3am every night and neglected my lab report..FINALLY..i managed to finish my assignment on saturday and i felt so happy..after that i started to do my report (until results part) until 3.30am and woke up at 5am to prepare for Famine 12..

When i came back from Famine (around 9pm).. I bathed and then turned on my laptop to contin ue my lab report (which should be handwritten)..When i turned on my MSN messenger..I saw my course rep's personal message :"Nutrition assignment should be handed in on friday - 6 march.." and i almost fainted..I gave my priority to the assignment but it turned out to be less urgent compared to my lab report..Grrrr.....
(to be continued...)

March 2 (continuation of March 1)
Fine..i decided to finish the report..but due to the tiredness (Only slept for 1 and 1/2 hours) i fell asleep..leaving 10 paragraphs of discussion + conclusion + references until the next day..luckily we only need to hand in the report at 3pm the next day..So..i rushed my report (with a very worried feeling as i scared i cannot finish it in time) from 11am to 1pm (break) and during my nutrition lecture (1pm to 3pm) ..Luckily..i managed to finish it.. (The report was 8 pages in length..containing the longest discussion that i've ever wrote in my life..which was 5 pages in length with 16 paragraphs..do kindly remember that it is a HANDWRITTEN report..)

At night..we rushed again to do our HR assignment which should be handed in on friday but the tutor needs our draft as soon as possible for any amendments..6 of us started the assignment from nothing (0%) to almost complete (95%) in 2 days..Just e-mailed the draft to the tutor last night..now waiting for the reply..to see whether our assignment is done properly or not..

In conclusion, life in UTAR is HECTIC!!!! VERY HECTIC...I hope i have 72 hours per day...

Anyhow..
My target for this semester is to get CGPA 3.800 (IF possible..the president's list)
I guess i shouldn't let my life stucked and distracted from my studies anymore..I've thought it through..and understand that LIFE MUST GO ON..no matter what happens..我已经想通了...

From today onwards:

1) I must strive harder..I wouldn't let myself to be sad for 1 more day..
2) I shall appreciate what i have now..and live life to the fullest...
3) I hope everyone around me can live happily..and my dear friends..if u guys need any help..mention it..and i shall try my best to help u guys out (if i am capable of doing it..don't ask me to COOK..XD)

Btw..a HUGE bug flew into my room just now..and rested on my pencil case..(i really hate bugs!!) and i would like to say THANK YOU YUNE!!!! for helping us to catch it..Thanks a million..you saved my life...
