Sem 4.. First day..

First day.. a long day that is relatively short.. lecture started.. lotsa briefing..

ONE prediction for the semester: WE ARE GONNA DIE !!
Process of dying: Slow.. but painful..

OMg.. i miss the holidays.. 5 weeks a lil too short la.. 6 will be just nice.. 1/2 year will definitely be too long.. 6-7 weeks --> just nice.

And go look at my face in the IMU brochure.. I dont believe it.. but they photoshopped me !!
WTH !! why they wanna do that?? my mole's GONE !!!!

Owh.. so sad..

And if you were like me.. (not paying full attention to lecture during first day)
You should realise that the whole class getting more and more N2(new word learnt) -->


Keep copying notes.. when it is oni 'Overview'.. i can just feel the sem 4 fever..

When would i ever get desensitised of stress..


Ps: N2 = Enthu = Enthusiastic

Sem 3 break and the start of Sem 4.

1 hour before sem 4 starts.. i realise.. WOW.. hols has finally ended.
and after spending 3/4 of my hols in bed sleeping.. i think i have enough 'spare sleep' to last 14 long weeks.

Anyway.. cya'll in heaven..
(they say heaven is cold, and so is Audi A.. hence Audi A = heaven)

Genting, Retardation and Kaki Lima(s)

One day.. a group of ppl decided to go to genting. One genius(dunno who) suggested.. "HEY !! lets try chillin the night over @ starbucks without booking a room."

So happily.. their journey began at KL central.. with a grand total of zero plans.
Every1 was supposed meet at 7.30 at central.. but ended at central around 8.00, but thats ok.. coz well.. theres no more bus tickets for sale anyway..

But nvm.. no problem.. coz the salesperson said Gombak still has lotsa tickets. So off they headed to gombak.

All was nice and smooth throughout the whole day.

Rides were great. No pointless screams.. oni meaningful names and profanities..

But it was TOTALLY misty.. many rides were closed for quite a long period of time.


They were quite emo.. but then at least they managed to sit on the space shot which gives a true simulated experience of suicide.

All was good until night fell and every1 decided to chill @ starbucks.. but chillin only lasted until 3.00 am. Coz wifi sux, drinks finished, and Andrew kept winning Cho Tai Di... so sienz..
Fortunately not every1 was bored.. some went for walks in the open-air which is freezing cold.. too bad not every1 had a human heater..

So they moved to McD.. and chilled (stoned).. for 1 hour.. and Wifi also sucked..

Then they moved to Kaki - 5 kedai..


where they slept..

Then at about 5.00, they decided to go to McD to have breakfast..

and they slept.... again.


Then finally around 8.00am, every1 was so relieved that the cable car station has opened..
They FINALLY managed to get back down the hill.. back home.. into bed..

...
...
...
A truly fantastic journey..
Where the only way some1 could have taken photos of people sleeping....
is to stay awake..

Dota..

Some people say dota is a stupid game.. small kids play it.. waste of time.
Worst off.. they also say it makes ppl anti-social.

Let me tell you something.. Dota is like a universal drug that can practically cure anything.

i) If hungry and no food --> play dota

ii)Emo coz fail exam --> play dota (side effect of excess dota in this situation is failing again)

iii) Emo coz girlfren leave you --> play dota (probably thats the reason she left)

iv) Pain due to infection on the leg (like Soon Yang) --> play dota (more effective than Aspirin)

v) Stresful lives of Bpharm --> play dota

vi) Want to learn new chinese vulgar words --> play dota online

vii) bored and nothing to do during holidays --> play dota


Wow.. see? Dota is such a fantastic (and addictive) drug.. I hope to see this drug in the next version of BNF.. but its very important to state the sub-addictive therapeutic dose.

Post-emo resit life..

AHHH !.. long time no post..
The last weekend was hell.. Imagine studying like hell for EOS.. then ONCE AGAIN.. studying like hell for resit.. the sensation = hell.

But after finishing this resit.. theres this warm sensation that any1 that has finished a resit paper can feel.. its far better than finishing EOS.. you should all try it out one day :p (touch wood).

And seriously.. we Bpharmers are best at complaining, cursing.. then complaining again. But once you go for a resit.. no matter wat people tell you about how hard, how suffering, how sad, how lifeless sem 4 is gonna be....
You'll say : OMG ! PLSSS !!! LET ME GO TO SEM 4 !!!!!

and then when in sem 4 already.. we will still continue complaining.. 'aiyo.. so much portfolio, so much PBL, class test.. etc-etc-etc'

stupid or not? i think quite stupid..

But if you think sem 4 is still gonna be dull, boring and stressful, think again..
This time around, im anticipating sem 4 to be so damn interesting.. put aside the thought of stress, dont think about the amount of work and assignments..
Instead, think of all those love affairs, scandals, dramas, and all those interesting and exciting stories coming up..
Its practically like living in a drama series..
Who needs One Tree Hill? We have (B) One Owh Seven !

So anyway.. i'll be looking forward to the new sem and seing EVERY SINGLE ONE OF B107 in it.
Until then.. happy hols! =)


Ps: To all those sitting for resits.. do your best, no fear, you'll make it thru.. and as long as u try your best..you never really fail (i just finished my resit.. so now im talking). Good luck and i hope i'll be able be in sem 4 with all of b107. =)

Expressing feelings..

Every1 needs to express themself.. this is me expressing myself after flunking Drug met and studying like mad.... again.

The effect of bad economy.

When economy is bad.. many things happen.. it would all root from bad economy, but not be directly caused by bad economy.

See.. when economy is bad, ppl's mood become bad..
When ppl's mood bcome bad, no appetite to eat, dun eat -> no nutrition -> get sick -> general health of the public decrease -> cant work -> even worse economy.

Then ppl get very stress.. and most of the ppl that would be most likely effected by bad economy.. are workaholics (not all, but most). So they spend most of their life in the office.. when they spend most of their time in the office, they've got nowhere to rent out their frustration.. so they release on their workers.. then workers also stress.. And so when every1 is stressed, no1 can do their work properly --> even worst economy.

And when stressed husband comes home stressed.. they make the housewife.. housewife stress --> release tension in shopping center --> inflation

And when housewife spends too much shopping.. little boy at home dun get to buy textbook and pencil coz all money gone into shoes and handbags --> education level decrease --> future generation of the country increase stupidity --> damage economy.

Then when every1 no money.. desperate edi.. ppl start doing illegal stuff. Then police come.. but its ok.. coz police understands that sharing is caring.. so some of them join in --> corruption increase --> crime rate increase -> economy decrease.

So you see.. its a vicious cycle.. once economy gets bad.. it'll get worse.

But no matter what you do.. dont stress!.. not good.

=)

"Holidays"

Sem 3 was hell.. it was basically 14 weeks of non-stop study action.. and another 4-5 weeks of intense study.. nothing but eat-sleep-study..
After some seriously hard work and serious effort i finished the exam knowing that i'll most likely flunk a minimum of 1 paper.
Flunk EOS paper wehy.. sure emo la.. but nvm.. got over it in few days.. then holidays started.. YAY !! (or so i thought)..
After hard effort and depressing papers.. whats next was a freaking boring holiday..
If you read some ppl's blog, u'll see how so many of them say "work hard and u'll be rewarded"... well, thats true to a certain extend.. work hard and i was rewarded with 16 hours of sleep a day, lotsa stoneing at home.. and basically nothing to do other than dota.. and occasionally.. i would go to some ppl's house... and dota again.. WEEE =)..

sounds like fun.. and then results would be out in 7 days time.. which means resit starts in 11 days..

So much for a great sem3 holiday..

And the fact that i havent seen much of daylight or any other humans has coz my sense of humour to drop and communication skill to depreciate..

Just like what some1 told me:
Life is as stagnant as it gets.
Not meeting new ppl,
Not learning new things,
Not experiencing new things,
Not moving,
Not growing..

What a wonderfull holiday..

Eos ended..

so.. EOS ended.. there was supposed to be a big hurray-yippe-ka-yay...
well.. tuesday to thursday was fun.. todays friday.. and the very fact i've got time to sleep for a total of 16 hours and time to blog means sumthings wrong..

anyway..
Happy hols to every1 and hope to see all of b107 in sem 4 together.. =)

Chronology of EOS exam.

Day 1 : Natural Products -- A pure insult of intelect.. a real test of luck !
Day 2 : Drug Metabolism -- Heaven or hell, never earth.
Day 3 : Pharmaceutics -- A day of light during an age of darkness.
Day 4 : Renal -- I should survive
Day 5 : Microbiology -- This time around... im going down
Day 6 : Respi system -- Most likely a goner
Day 7 : Pharm anal -- RM500 prepared..

~~Time to think of alternative courses!~~ (mayb bussiness, mayb char kueh teow, roti canai maker is out of the question..)

Monday 10-11-2008... The end is near !

Sem 3 eos.. starts monday(tmr).
i'll be going for the paper like a guilty man going for execution..
Fools.. i dont WANNA die.. i just feel death coming..
even if i'd die.. i'd wanna go out with something big.. like a meteor strike or a nuke bomb detonation.. That way i can bring along all my frens~~ =)
Then mayb we could have a 'victims of incident 10-11 (instead of 9-11)memorial club'..
But shit.. tmr is most likely gonna be a fu*king bad day to die.. worst of, im gonna die in the hands of papers.. F*cK.. PAPERs? sHIT... nooo... but owh well, whatevers gotta happens is gonna happen.

To B107 classmates:
Then again.. I can change that.. You can change that.. WE, can make a difference.
All we need to do is stand as one.. be brave when the moment comes.. do what we NEED to do, as we all know it is the right thing to do..

Because when we are 1.. even a nuclear missile will diverge from its path.. even the evil papers of Natural Products, Drug meta, Microbiology and Pharmaceutical Analysis can do nothing to us..

All we need to do when the time comes.. is remember what i say.. do the right thing TOGETHER
And the right thing to do...............................

is HAND IN A BLANK PAPER, TOGETHER ! =)

Andrew's guide to Death, Euthanasia, Murder and Suicide.

Its the time of the year again.. time to study, time to get stressed out, time to feel retarded, time to feel frustrated.... time to feel like dying.

Being an Andrew.. i cant teach you how to study.. cant teach you how to destress, can make you feel more retarded, can make you feel frustrated... but one thing i can guide you.. is how to die.. :p

So.. Based on what i have studied, heard, read and guessed.. heres a list of ways to die.. starting from easiest(fastest/painless) to most brutal and horrifying.

1. CO poisoning - first option is by inhaling a canister of CO gas which i do not know how u can possibly get ur hands on.. Second option is by sleeping in your car overnight. You wouldnt even know ur dead till u see the bright light and a dude in white comes to you and says "hey.. ur officially dead". Fast, painless, easy... but u gotta have a car    :-p

2. Overdose of drugs of abuse - morphine and other opiates would be best option.. u get respiratory depration.. if u take a significantly high dose.. u succesfully die.. but ur high while u die.. so its ok   =)

3. Alcohol abuse - drunk driving: enough said.. just make sure theres a cliff nearby, and no police nearby.. otherwise u might end up in jail.. or hospital.. ur whole life.. and u'd wish u've taken options 1 or 2 instead.

4. Hallucinogens ie- mescaline, LSD - lock yourself in a room. throw keys away.. put knife in room --> mission accomplish. Or you can stand on the rooftop of vista tower.. consume drug --> mission accomplish. **LSD tho being more effective than mescaline might result in 'living nightmares'... so i think use mescaline better.

5. Air emboli - just take a syringe.. inject air, settle. Cheap. Slow. Painful. (but wiki says u need 40ml of air..)

6. Just jump into a cliff  - Fast (varied depending on height of cliff), Cheap (actually free), but the last moment of ur life could be ur worst and most terifying... worth it? you decide.

7. Eat Satay everyday  - Slooooooooooooowww... but confirms you a death by cancer in 40 -50 years to come[benzo(a)pyrene i think] [dont shoot me if wrong].. and must eat satay everyday..

8. Drive car very fast or very sloooow - Drive fast.. accident = die/paralyze/pay people lotsa money. Drive car very slow more effective... people overtake you, stop in front of you.. beat you till you die.. =)

9. Cut wrist - slow.. bloody.. ugly.. become ghost also dam horrifying. But lotsa emo movie use this way went the guy leave the girl.. so should be effective in dying la.

10 From the NUX VOMICA ALKALOIDS..(even the name also u know must be some bad guy) -- strychnine -> with sufficient quantity.. causes muscle convulsants. all ur muscles are gonna contract until u die of suffocation or u die coz of lack of energy.. Slow.. Pain.. Sad.. DRAMA !. 

11. Dont study for EOS -- ENOUGH SAID.

**Though im writing this bullshit guide.. theres a few things i wanna declare:
1. im not responsible for the death of enthusiastic ppl.

2. ppl from many walks of life read this blog.. ranging from arts students, random unknown ppl, first class students and professors with degrees and Ph.Ds who are bloody smart and knowledgable.. so dont blast me if i write sumthing non-factual or of false-fact.

3. If you feel like dying.. Just dont.


~~HAPPY STUDYING~~

World terrorism... (WARNING: THE FOLLOWING POST CONTAINS LOTS OF THEORIES)

When you talk about terrorism.. we think Al-Qaeda, Osama bin laden... Well, yea.. those bastards are some bad shit.

But say hello to a new era of GLOBAL TERRORISM.. where guns are not used, bombs are not used, and war is not even declared, say hello to CHINA and their MELAMINE products !!

Yea.. well.. if you thought that China was only in a developing stage, well , think again! their cheap tricks could easily wipe out mankind at global proportions. Melamine for starters.. Cyanide and anthrax could be next! 
You thought that North Koreans were bastards for making Nuclear Bombs. Well, China doesn't even need to do that.. they have Melamine. 
And yea.. u might think that they're innocent.. it was accidental.. or mayb just the fault of one or two cash-hungry bastards. But think of the scenario carefully.. they INTENTIONALLY put POISON into food, then export it out, GLOBALY. Then leave it on the shelves for a few years while it sucks global money. And when people start dying... all they do is get 1 dude to say "omg.. sorry, accidentally, i retire.. bye-bye"... and WOW !.. they're off the charge. 

So.. wat i wanna say.. is make frens with some Chinese ppl (no.. not chinese.. i mean big officials from China). Coz in just a matter of time. These bastards are gonna begin their next step for world domination.. They have planned it out for a long time.. well schemed and all events following a pre-determined paths..

Heres how i predict their course of action was, is and would be:
1. Pretend to be owh-so-pitiful.. lack of resource, high poverty rate.. etc-etc
2. Act desperate and provide cheap labour to attract foreign investors to set up manufacturing centers.
3. Act desperate and sell all China made products at super cheap prices to attract international buyers and comsumers..
4. Build good reputation for their products.
5. COMMENCE TESTING OF NEW WEAPON OF MASS ANNIHILATION - MELAMINE !!!

(schemes for the future)
6. R&D in undetectable chemical and biological poisons.
7. Full scale usage of poisons --> worldwide death and disease spread.
8. Unleash China's army.
9. WORLDWIDE DOMINATION !!

Well planned i would say.. requiring such long periods of time and such well strategised plans.. but from the results from their initial testing, and the extensive recall of my favourite cookies, chocs and cream biscuits.. it is clear that their plan is on the right track.

The future is near.. you have been warned.. their plans showing. Would their scheme for world domination succeed, would they leave our stomachs growning for some biscuits or would my theories simply be proven wrong.. only time will tell..

Ps: bloody hell... so hungry now.. nothing to eat..

How to concentrate

EOS coming... you gotta sit down and focus on studies!!
here are a few tips on how to sit down and focus:

1. TFK so dam a lot until no energy to move around.. so u'll end up sitting down

2. Chain ur legs to a chair then lock with padlock. Call mum/dad/fren to remove padlock only after 5 hours. Warning, if mum/dad/fren went out: may result in roasted human if suddenly 'fo chuk'(fire) and may result in pants being wet if tabole tahan urine.

3. Learn to build interest in a particular subject

4. Uninstall DOtA.

5. Study with the computer off.

6. If unable to perform tip no.5, use this wallpaper for ur computer:

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbPLTV8fr4juWZIyPLa5ue9KiJ9RT3-vZgdTDNLLollFlelPNXujwb4hoQ3lckRUdjUEw0JwskrqW-KPWAv4Hvn0Ia8bs-HihcICEKKUcLdwA2YgEqN-a11j8eHqRTZiXs1R36Ov8UvPE/s1600-h/do+your+work.jpg

7. Delete all porn in computer.. (dont bother backing up for post EOS use.. BF, KP + gang sure got a lot of supply)

8. Try not to study with music

9. If tip no.8 cannot be executed.. listen to musics like Vivaldi's 'Four seasons'; Mozart's Sonatas and Maksim's croatian rhapsody..  (linkin park, my chemical romance and other various head bangers dont count)

10. Understand that the best environment to study is still the library

11. Don't do group discussions if it ends up as group chit-chat

12. If group chit-chats must happen, spend 1 full day just talking all the shit u wanna talk.. got problem just say.. got rumour just spread.. got gossip just talk.. GOT TIP PLS SHARE !!!

13. Stop reading this and get back to your work.


**updated:
14. Start with something that doesnt make you go into a state of emotional helplessness ie: dont start of by studying pharmaceutical analysis.

Good luck for extempo exam !!

100.HOW DO U FEEL NOW?

Hungry...

Things i lost in life...

Life is like a retarded one-way journey with no pockets. You carry everything with your bare hands and if you drop them.. you cant turn back to pick it up.

In the past 1 year+ in IMU alone.. i have lost many things..
Here is a list:

1. 2 thumbdrives.. (and ALMOST lost my current thumbdrive about almost a dozen times)

2. my mind (..enough said)

3. a calculator.. which was actually left in my laptop bag. Without knowing, i bought another.. then found the first calculator hence leaving me with 2 calculators at one point in time.. Then i lost the first without knowing when.. and lately(5 hours ago) i just realised.. i lost the other one as well, leaving me with no means of calculating anything more advance than 1 x 1 now.

4. the words in my sem 2 practical manual (think organic... think solvent)

5. weight (stress related.. anymore and i'll disappear)

6. marks (some from situations requiring my student ID, others due to exams and class tests)

So anyway.. all i've gotta say is loosing things in life can sometimes be a emotionally traumatising experience. But think on the bright side.. here in Bpharm, theres a few things ppl can never ever loose even if they tried to. 
No.1 : Virginity (no time, no energy, no1)
No.2 : Stress (even if you loose it, IMU gives you a new one... but lets all pray hard that every1 gets a taste of sem 4 shit together)
No.3 : Invoices (comes along with lost of money.. but again... lets all hope that we all ONLY have to give IMU the big Sem 4 ang pou.. and not the small RM500 resit angpou.. and much more important is that we dont have to give the sem 3 angpou again !!)

No.4 : One hell of a great time (yeap... enuff said)

The appartment, the pasta, the food and The Stacie.

8 days after i started my 9 day vegetarian course... We (a lot of ppl) went to the appartment to celebrate Stacie's b'day.

Atmosphere was good... service was better, food was fantastic(for me).

So here's the story of my meal for my dinner:On the last day of my vegetarian spree, which coincides with the night b4 stace's b'day.. the only vegetarian dish which happens to be what i think as the best meal on the table that night was called..... "ANDREW'S PASTA".And so i ordered.. Andrew's Pasta.Which.. came quite slowly, and looked like this Which honestly looked quite de-appertizing. But once i starting eating it.. it seriously tastes a million times better than the various types of taufu i've been eating for the pass 8 days, which was actually something good.. coz nothing died in the process of preparing those meals.And HEY !! the best dish on the table was the kindest one(to the chickens, lambs, fish..etc-etc :P)And so i ate on... enjoying my meal.. the atmosphere.. the people....... the complains..

It was a good nite, a good b'day.. and best of all.. you could just see the sparkles in the b'day girls eyes(no red-eye reduction from camera flash)

ID pls..

THIS.. is a picture of a pharmaceutical suppository... it get inserted into ASSES....whenever oral route is not applicable. 

In the process of bringing you a glimse of how a suppository looks like while waiting and sitting aimlessly for 20 minutes... i heard sumthing..  "blah-blah-practical-blah-blah-pls.. ok?... blah-blah-blah..... ID PLS". Then i go like 'huh...owhkaaaaay???'...
then i heard one of the only full sentences i could understand--> "This is not in coherance with the objectives of the practical.. ID PLS.." Next thing i know, im forced to write my ID under some retarded category of 'dirty sink'..!!!!!  
~~OWNAGE~~

SO.. enjoy this 2 pictures, frame it if you want to... it cost me 5 marks for not 'following the objectives of the experiment'.

And for all students who have not yet written their practical reports, mayb you would wanna play safe and add in an additional 'objective' in ur practical report... or else, you might hear the phrase "ID pls"

Objective no.1 -  to learn how suppositories are made
Objective no.2 - to learn how to effectively clean all glass wares, sinks, oily tables, etc-etc.
Objective no.3 - to learn how to effectively avoid mobile landmines(1 wrong move .. YOU DIE) by travelling from 1 lab to another.
Objective no.4 - to maintain calm and cool when someone(could be a patient you encounter in the near future) walks beside you and says "ID pls"

SO.. enjoy ur practicals.. 
and REMEMBER... keep the objectives and the ADDITIONAL objectives in mind  =)

Ps: (Just in case)

Objective of blog post:
1. To instill public awareness on the how much is 2 photos of a suppository worth.

Something is wrong...

Im feeling weird.. this is weird.. this is wrong.
Not stressed, not tensed, not urged.. Is this real? It definitely is not right..
Something is very wrong. Mayb i saw the timetable wrongly?Mayb sumthing im missing? But why is this happening? I feel lost... i feel stuck in a time void.. nothing seems to move... i feel free, but the semester has not ended.. this should not be happening.. 'free' should not even exist...
Mayb its some kinda conspiracy ?or mayb its a form of trickery? most likely just a missing page on the timetable.
Somebody please tell me.....
What is wrong..... ??

The Bpharm philosophy of studying..

The brain.. is a wonderful thing.. we use it to learn, to understand, to interpret... and most importantly for pharmacy students in Bpharm.. to MEMORISE.

The brain is like a cup.. it's capability to remember things being its depth, water that is being filled into the cup is like the knowledge we learn from our everyday lifes.

Here in IMU, we get lots and lots of water.. a little too much water. Not coz they feed us with lots and lots of water.. not coz they drown us in the sea, but because they lift up the whole Pacific ocean then gush it right down on us like a tsunami expecting the little cup to hold up the entire ocean.  But thats ok coz men are used to the salty wet sea water..

So wat im trying to say is:
love your cup, love your brain..  
its difficult(or impposible) to  remember just about every single thing you studied..
Fill up your brain with as much kidney juice as possible then thats enough, anything added over the limit only spills out.
"If its not meant to be, it wont be"  - Dont push the limits to hard!

to all B107 coursemates:~Chillout and all the best  for monday's renal class test~

IMU's scheme of self destruction...

(2 years after posting this posts.. many things have changed, please refer to this link for IMU of today: http://andrewlum.blogspot.com/2010/01/before-and-now-beautiful-life-in-imu.html)


So right now im in the middle of the most hectic week of probably the most hectic semester(that i've ever been thru). So i cant help but wander why is IMU treating ONLY BPharm students like they're shit meant to die in the most misserable way..
I mean, think about it..portfolio submision due on friday, extempo class test on friday, monday renal test, tuesday 2-3 reports to be submitted in 1 day, wednesday hospital attachment, thursday pharmaceutics class test, friday pharm analysis workshop... who the heck survives this?

If you wanna think positively :
IMU does this so as to create future pharmacist capable of enduring and handling all situations and possible scenarios that could be encountered in the future. By doing so... encreasing the rating for IMU-born pharmacist in the market hence increasing IMU's creadibility hence resulting in more students joining them in the future hence resulting in higher income output...

Now look at the real case scenario:
Once we graduate of IMU in (assuming we make it out in the minimum required time of 2.5 more years).. we would probably forget 50 - 80% of everything we've already learnt.. but thats ok.. coz we probably only need 5% of wat we're learning.. but on the other hand, we'd probably have health complications such as depression, insomnia, diabetes, caffein toxicity, and mayb even insanity.. hence resulting in a drop in Bpharm rating.
And then lets not forget to take into account the unhappy-students factor whereby we would instantly discourage any acquintance, fren, family member or newb at the interview room from taking up Bpharm coz its more of a suicide attempt than anything else. 
Then we also have to take into account the fact that the course is so hard ppl might get kicked out or just die halfway in the middle of the course resulting in another further reduction of Bpharm rating hence reducing  IMU's profit.

So all in all wat IMU is doing with the Bpharm curriculum is more like a suicide attempt to reduce Bpharm students from year-to-year hence resulting in a reduction in net profit from students.. if my statements are right, IMU created the Bpharm course just so it'll be shut down in a few years to come..

Heres sumthing that makes me a little curious...
B104 started with (if im not mistaken) approx 80 students.
B106 had about 100
B107 has 110
b108 has 140

Conclusion: The world today is retarded..

The Subang way of life.

So one fine day.. i realised that theres sumthing in common with subanganites... its sumthing so distinct you can just tell that some1 is from subang.

so here it goes..

First of all.. in accordance to the Subang way of life, one must always lanci with all his might and ability. Never be modest and also elaborate ur capabilities to every1. Let it be a long finger or a shinnier hair, mayb a bigger wallet or a heavier lunch u ate... everything and anything at all that is positively skewed is worth boasting,  so boast about it and do it proudly and loudly.

And when some1 gives you a compliment.. dont go around saying things like 'no la.. no la..' whether thecompliment is true or not, just say sumthing like "o yea.. thx for stating the obvious.. i actually have not even released 1/4 of my true potential.. but thx anyway for complimenting the obvious"..... that.. is the Subang way of accepting compliments.

Then theres this thing about sports.. Subang ppl tend to be better at sports not requiring dramatic movement, ie:DOtA, Pool, Darts, Foosball. If you see a pro basketball or football player or any other pro of any other sports requiring fast movements, he's probably not from Subang.. (most likely from sabah/sarawak/terrenganu, where they get training from chasing wild boars and running from mad dogs) Here in Subang, the only thing ppl need to run away from are angry mums holding rotans..

Finally, take note of the way Subanganites do things.. its sumthing called 'attitude'. Subanganites dont really care much about anything. The only thing they care about is looks and the 'cosmetic' side of everything.. 
example:
i) playing basketball - who gives a shit if you get the ball thru the hole and score a point..  so marking your teammate is OK, hogging the ball when you are surrounded by another 5 players is also OK. If the referee blows the whistle, throw the ball right into his face, the crowd might applaud. What counts is that you look good bouncing that shit.. the score? to hell with it!

ii) cars - When would any1 actually need to drive a car at it's max speed of 320 kmph? in fact, its more important to drive the car slowly then rev the engine car loudly without making the car move fast to give sufficient time for ppl to glance at the car and wonder which make it is.

iii) exercising/working out - How heavy you lift and how good your stamina counts for nuts ! wats important it that those biceps fit into an XXL shirt.. after that, its ok if the max weight it can carry is a bowl of taufu.

From this you can tell that Subanganites are all about the looks. You never have to actually be good at anything.. you just need to LOOK like ur good at it.. its OK to suck after that. 

Today..

It's been a while since the last time i wrote anything.. so im gonna write sumthing about today.

Today is an interesting day. It is nothing like the normal boring,tiring and depressing days.

Today is special... the only way to actually describe this day is to actually live thru it in my shoes.. thats impposible tho. 

But written down in words, i would describe today as "The shit-ty-iest pathetic stupid chain of retarded events that exceeds the normal threshold of depression beyond limitations by far surpassing the shit endured during routine days"....

Hence it is extraodinary, so it is special... deserving appreciation.
Appreciate the moment, appreciate the shit, appreciate today...

~Cheers~

Another cause of global warming...

So we all know that global warming is like a serious issue in the world today. One of it's big contributors would b emmisions from petrol and diesel cars.

So lets look at vehicles.. we keep talking about hydrogen fuel cells and solar powered cars and blah-blah-blah, but heres the question... Why look so far? lets deal with matters using applicable methods.

Ok.. so lets look at cars and how it's been driven today.. ppl install superchargers and turbochargers costing a bomb and spend years in R&D to create faster and louder machines. For the not so rich ppl, they just have the habit of pressing the dam accelerator down to the floor like its some kind of.... whatever, u get the idea.

So lets look at the underlying causes for these retarded behaviours...

i) Chick factor.
Yes.. hot chicks and pretty girls cause global warming, not cause they are hot and they heat up the earth's atmosphere(quantity insufficient to cause significant direct heating effect) but because they stimulate the activity of man's second head. Hence in an attempt to impress, man have went through great lenghts to develope fast moving vehicles ie: Buggatti Veyron, Mercedes SLR - Super fast machines, Super thirsty fuel guzzlers.

Then there are also a few ppl who install huge looking exhausts into their Kancil or Proton Saga for uncomprehensible purposes. Think about it, rather than reducing exhaust backflow(something that big exhausts does to reduce performance loss), the weight of an aftermarket exhaust would probably lift the front wheels of these kinda cars airbourne.. So wats the point? And the thick soot coming out would probably kill any1 standing within close proximity...
Hence, SAY NO TO RETARDED OVERSIZED AND HUGE EXHAUST PIPES.


ii) Music
Think about it.. notice how your mood is affected by the song u are listening to ! 
I'll tell u from personal experience. Even i didnt notice this chronic change that occurs over a gradual period of time. For the pass few days, i was listening to slow piano pieces like Claudine and other slow songs like 'Way Back Into Love'... and after 1 week, i looked at my blog topics and OWH MY GAWD... was i emo? 

So anyway... thats not my point, what im trying to say is.. find a friend, sit in their car, close your eyes, and listen to the change in engine sound as the mood of music played in the car is changed.
u'll notice that when soft music is played, there will be no rampant acceleration and over-revving, so all you hear is 'nguuuuuu~~~~~~'
Then turn on sumthing from Linkin Park or Lost Prophets and u'll notice the evil grin on the drivers face followed by loud cries produced by the 175 horses within the engine.... then u hear 'VROOOOOOM !!!!!' 

In the process of unleashing this power within the engine...........................................
yea, u guessed it... Fuel Guzzling Syndrome comes in.

Conclusion
1. To all hot chicks out there, save the earth, save the environment... go for the guys with the slower, subtle, fuel economical cars (ie: sentra). Your decision will either encourage the deterioration of global warming or promote a greener earth.

2. Listen to Claudine and 'way back into love' in your car.



**ps: Lecturers should also take note as man of all walks of life can be transformed into a global warmer if affected by any of these 2 causes.

i hope im just sick..

Owh shit... even as i type this shit, my brain feels like the paracetamol tablet in the mortar that i crushed with my pestel..

Last few days seemed like a roller coaster in my head.. I wake up every alternate days with a splitting headache that makes me feel like a nuclear bomb just exploded in my brains.
Then i accumulate the last ounces of motivation and drag my lethargic body around campus..
Then i sleep in class till its 11.30, only to go down and look at the deapetizing food that further reduces my apetite from 0.5% down right to 0.0%...
And the whole day i feel totally moody and just owh-so-easily pissed off i could smash a chair into some1 who gives a frenly smile and says......"hello"

Arghh... no interesting blog posts from me for the mean time..
I hope im sick and not having sum fr-en-nemy add hormone pills into my drink... coz if i list down my condition.. it sure looks like a PM syndrome...

A tribute to Daniel Teoh; a friend, a Bpharmer, a Legend...

This post of mine is dedicated to Daniel Teoh, a Senior Bpharmer of B105 cohort who passed away in an unfortunate car accident on thursday 14 august 2008.

Even at this moment, i am still shocked and unable to fully accept the death of Daniel Teow.
I would admit that i do not know him extremely well and neither were we very close, but one thing for sure is that he was someone i would call... a friend.
As a matter of fact, he was actually amongst the first few seniors i actually got a chance to get to know personally. I've played a few rounds of dota with him.. and crap.. he is GOOOOD.. at that time, i sure did not know that he was a WCG - level player...

I really just feel that i might not have known him very well, but i do know for sure that this world wouldn't b the same again.. its kinda weird, u dont have to know some1 all your life, u dont have to be really close to some1, u dont even have to know some1 at all, but sometimes, when  some1, especially a good person, some1 unique in their own way, some1 who is somehow connected to you just passes on, the fact that u noe u wont be able to meet anytime soon just gives a kind of solemn feel.

Im really not good at words, but if you have the time, and if you really want to know who Daniel Teoh was and the memories he left behind then pls read this post 
http://sharon.tabulas.com/2008/08/14/bye-bye           (link given by 1-ling)
i do not personally know the author, but i think that whatever she said was very meaningful..
it really touched me and i was really moved.

Life is just so fragile, and i hope that we can all live a life that is worthy and meaningful. Tho i might not have known Daniel all so well, i will personally say that he has left his mark on my life, changed the way i look at things and made me realize how important it is to be remembered for all our goodness.

All i will say now, is that Daniel Teoh was a good man, a great friend... he still is, he still will be..

For all he was, what he could be and all he has done, the memories of Daniel Teoh shall always live with us.


Daniel Teoh; A friend, A Fellow Bpharmer, A Legend,
~Rest in peace~ 

... and then i felt hungry before i could start studying again.

.. so after posting a post on how i took images of aerosol particle movement, i had a small lil chat with an Mpharmer who was also gonna b sitting for a test related to drugs... drug synthesis (if im not mistaken)...
so after exhanging shit.. i thought.. ok.. i think chill a bit edi.. i shall start studying !!... but b4 that, lemme get some refreshments...

and so heres a list of my refreshments:

Lay's potato chips: overpriced, a lil too salty... not too bad overall



Bitter-sweet malta after a full serving of potato chips, drank from coke-glass to give a false illusion of drinking beer -- > PURE PLEASURE =)


ok.. i think i should get back to work now.. i hope i dont suddenly decide to talk to any1 on msn and then feel hungry and put up a blog post about wat i ate again..

~happy studying~

... and so this is what i tried out when i felt sienzetised.

Drug metab class test on monday..
i dunno how 2 describe how i feel, its not bored, its not tired, i think the closest word is sienz / no mood.

so i saw this aerosol deodorant cannister in my room.. and LOLed. 
k.. this is what i did, i tried to take a photo of aerosol particulate movement !!! cool !..
succeded in 3 tries, giving you..  A PERFECT IMAGE  =)

heres the results:
 
Failed image no.1 - no background contrast.


Failed image no.2 : too much contrast. Take note the liquid droplet at the upper left section.. that means terkena my cam lens.. but its ok la, evaporates very quickly.


Final image : perfect contrast, croped to perfection...  =)


So anyway...happy studying for drug metab =)

**cough-cough... now i wonder how's my body gonna metabolise the high concentrations of deodorant spray i inhaled**

Signs and symptoms of a Bpharmer..

So here i am stoning in the e-lab (used to be cyber cafe) of IMU.. and i realised that Bpharmers suffer from this condition known as Bpharm-o-nism

Here are a few signs and symptoms of this condition:
1. Have round circles of dark discolouration under eyelids aka big eyebags / panda eyes
2. High tendency of being labeled 'Fuking Lanci'
3. Walk around with severe lack of motivation to lift up the foot to make the next step (lethargy)

4. Constantly complains about stress, tension, excess work and lack of life.

5. Topics of conversation only revolve around Drug metabolism, Natural products, portfolios, datelines and ... once in a while... JAV(applicable to guys staying in vista C and B only).

6. Often seen mumbling to themselves about certain chemical/drug reaction

So... if you fullfill at least 4 out of these 6 criterias... my dear condolences, you are suffering from terminal Bpharm-o-nism.. Pls seek stress management therapy.
~Cheers~

Blogspot the retard..

So you saw the post before this... what do you think? i think it is LOOOOOOOOOOOONG.

And so this is what happen.. in an attemp to make me feel/look/act like a fool... blogspot.com has played a practical joke on me...
Heres the story:

i woke up at about 9 or 9.30... and decided to make a more 'down to earth' entry for once.. it took me longer than i expected.. and about 1 hour later(no kiddin) i finally completed wat i wanted to write.. it wasn't exactly easy expressing yourself in words u noe??

So just before i clicked 'publish post'... i decided to just preview it and see if there was any fault so theres no 'potong stim' moments.. And well, all was ok, no typo... so i clicked back.. and WATAFARK !!!!???  all that i wrote was gone??!!

then i check drafts.. and it only saved like half of what i wrote.. so like a fool... i had to think of wat i wrote and re-write it again... so potong stim.. so pissed..

So anyway.. good job and congratz to  BLOGSPOT.COM.... mission accomplised... you pissed the shit outta me..

A day of victory, joy, celebration... and UNITY !

It was friday 08.08.08 - Our Pharm A's volleyball match against Pharm B.. and also the GRAND OPENING OF THE BEIJING OLYMPICS !! So anyway.. Pharm A male's match started at 8.00 with Mr. Lim Kean Ping representing B107 along with several other Mpharm peeps. The match was a spectacular + exciting + exhausting even for audience as we came out with a hundred different kinds of cheers and shouted 25 times every game... sometimes more, because we didn't know that our team did not get the point (hardly any of us know the rules of volleyball)

Finally, at 9.00pm, Pharm A emerged as the victor scoring 2-0... it was truely an amazing sight seing all my batchmates cheering so loudly.  The atmosphere was almost like we won an Olympics game.

**to Mr. LKP : I told you this before, but i'll say it again.. Doesnt matter if you've played 3 games or 10 games or 100 games, one thing i know for sure, you did 1 hell of a good job out there.. and you sure made the very fact that we are B107 students something to shout and cheer about.

So... celebration of our victory didnt last too long as every1 quickly dispersed and sprint up to the student lounge to watch the Olympics (including the man of the day.. LKP) The student lounge was packed full to the brim with about 40-50 ppl (20-30 of which consist of B107s). Every1 was in amazement and awe as they watched the olympics.. which was indeed magnificent, and wat JN terms "fantabulous". (too bad she herself didnt get to watch it.. awww)

Then after a while.. the boring part of the show started where the athletes from various countries paraded. But that was when the fun part of the night begun.. somehow, we decided to start playing pool, foos and darts..  we played and shouted like drunken sailors reaching shore the whole night long and probably made the other ppl in the student lounge look at us like 'satu macam'.

It was only after a while that me and LKP decided to breath some fresh air and grab a drink coz we tabole tahan the hot and stuffy condition inside that 40 pax packed oven.

Sitting outside the lounge, i could hear them shout and scream like damn barbarians.. But from that point of view.. i noticed something...

Things aren't the same as it was 1 year ago.
A year ago, we were strangers...
Right now, i'll say this from the bottom of my heart that i truely think we've become more like 1 big family. 

Looking at so many ppl gathered together sharing joy with each other just gives me a warm sense of joy i cannot explain in words.
And honestly, 1 year ago, when we were newborn babies in this new world, i never expected nor anticipated us to be like how we are right here, right now, today.

For who and how we are today, i think every1 contributed their fair share, but 2 ppl deserves the most credit : PANG TSEN  and KEAN PING.
I'll sincely say that these 2 ppl have gone the extra mile to see an extra person turn up for any event. They are the people who brought 107 individuals(sorry if the digits aint right) who are strangers to one another into wat i would now call as the B107 FAMILY.. For all that and much-much more, i salute you both..

Finally, just a lil msg to all fellow B107 batchmates:
Life is a hard and difficult journey especially for all us, but to think that we're all carrying a very heavy burden on our backs, yet not forget to look around and take time to realise the little more beautiful aspects of life that make our days a little brighter, i think every1 of us has done a great job worth mentioning..
We've come a long way since the first time we've all met, so lets just finish this shit together and in 2 years to come.. lets all emerge as graduating BPharmers !! 
and one fine day, not today, not tomorrow, but several years to come. We shall all be able to look back upon these days and tell the story of not just ourselves, but the people around us, and how each and every1 of them left their marks on our hearts...    =)

Grading for BPHARM students...

Below is a grading system for Bpharm students showing what every range of marks u get in an exam actually means:

0          :  Change course pls...
1 - 49  :  Tough luck this time, dont worry, dont give up, life is hard but try harder next time.

50 - 60 : WOW..   you passed.. this calls for a GRAND CELEBRATION !!!.. keep up the good work

61 - 70 : FANTASTIC JOB, you must have worked really hard and your efforts paid off.

71 - 80 : Are you related to Albert Einstein?

81 - 90 : 1 word to describe it all - PERFECT

....
....
....
....

91 - 100 : Pls do yourself a favour...  GET A LIFE !!!

ANGRY vs EMO vs LANCI vs ...just plain sleepy

So.. im sure if you read the last few posts, you would know im taking this sadistic course known as none other than BPHARM.

We have all the shit in the world thrown at us just to ensure that we loose interest in our soon-to-be-if-we-dont-die-yet profession. Life is tough, but im trying my best to keep to my own word and pull through this...

Here's the problem.. in an attempt to live up to the expectations of my course, i've compromised lots of my sleeping time. Its not like i really love to sleep for a grand total of 4-5 hours everyday but i just have to compromise...
and when i go to uni being half asleep, here are the following statements that come along every word of 'hello'  :

i) PT : eh.. u very emo ah today?... u ok ah?

ii) MgR : eh.. why so moodless ah lately?

iii) Mich : you always also look like so angry waaaannn...

iv) ter' ren-ce : hey dude.. according to some frens of mine they said you're damn lanci mann.. but its ok dude.. hahahaha.. its cool k... hahahaha... so chill out mann..

So this is the sorta stuff ppl tell me when im in uni and im half asleep... takes me another half day to get back home.. be a lil more awake.. and to comprehend that i look like a zombie (thanks to Bpharm)..

So here's the take-home msg from this post:   
I AM SLEEEEPPYYY !!!!!!!!!

Forget TURBO, NOS and SUPERCHARGERS !!

So here's a story of what happened to me ytd.
It was about 8pm when i came back from pc fair with ben ytd, and i was driving back to subang on the federal. So the right lane was quite smooth hence i changed laned and was driving at a constant 100kmph. all was nice and mood in the car was jolly.

Suddenly all hell broke loose when one b!tch of a thing driving a white wira just stoped for no apparent fu*king reason. The car behind the b!tch managed to stop in time but the 3 other cars behind were of a smaller gap and every other car after that had to press their brakes to the full end.. i knew this coz i could hear the multiple tyres screeching.

Immediately, ben shouted and called me to stoped... Moving at a speed of 80 or 90, i had just 100meters or less to come to FULL STOP.
thanks to fast reflex of both me and ben(not joking, not bragging), i pulled my gear all the way down to 1 and slammed the brakes, while ben pulled up my handbrakes and i moved my car a little to the left hence avoiding the car in front of me by a few inches.
It was seriously just a matter of inches !!

I am not kidding when i tell you that i almost crashed into a car in front of me..
and thankfully, there was no car behind me.

My car skidded, swerved and almost totally crashed.. im really glad and thankfull to everything.. the coincidence, the reaction, the luck... but not the noob driver who wants to speed with a 95" wira without knowing how 2 drive.

So.. after deep and long thought, i'd just say this.. forget the turbo, forget the nos, forget the turbochargers.. and forget about everything else that helps get ur car move from 0 - 100kmph in 3.5seconds..
If you have enough money.. invest in something that'll help slow your car from 100 - 0 kmph in 3.5 seconds instead.. it'll probably save your life one day !

PC FAIR..

So.. as you know.. 2-3 times a year, PIKOM organise wat is known as THE PIKOM PC FAIR.. !!
ok.. so this event is a great event that is aimed to allow the general public to inhale the thick and foul sweat smell of ppl from different ethnic races, sizes and attire..

Jokes aside.. i was there with bennete and we bought quite lotsa stuff there..

Things that i bought:
1. KingMax 2gb Super Stick  - RM25
2. KingMax 8gb micro SD  - RM100
3. Sonic Gear Earpump - RM45

Total - RM170 in 5 hours..


This is the thumbdrive i bought.. looks exactly like a piece of stick and is barely 2 mm thick... coolness..

 
 

This is a dinosaur looking thingy thats able to react to the environment.. Example: u put ur hand near it, it'll move towards ur hand.. put ur finger near the mouth, it'll automatically bite it.. uber cool... Would've bought it if there was a 95% discount..
This lil thing cost RM1000++

Reading MSN PMs

The time now is 11.38pm 31.July.2008.
Tmr is friday and most of my classmates are gonna compile their portfolio findings.. Its a stressful and tensed moment even for me... but what i did was take a break.. chill out with some music, then i opened my msn and read a few PMs of my classmates... there seems to be some kind of template for my classmates... here are some examples:

1. OMG-OMG-OMG !! PORTFOLIO!!!  im gonna die !!
2. Just kill me.. no portfolios pls !!
3. ARGHHHHHHHH PORTFOLIOS... JUST KILL ME
4. PORTFOLIOS ARE KILLING ME !!!

From this.. it can be comcluded:
1. ppl like to die
2. portfolios are a psychological weapon of mass murder

So.. anyway..to all b107 classmates reading this.. happy dying... i meant happy portfolio researching

to all non-Bpharm ppl reading this... welcome to our lifes..

 

A dark conspiracy surrounding DOtA

So im sure every1 knows wats this game called dota.. its a really cool game, i noe many ppl like it.. and well, i like it too. The thing is.. its so bloody addictive, sumtimes i just wander.. mayb, just MAYB... its sum kinda sadistic psychological warfare.
(**take note, by choosing to read this post you have agreed to in no way criminalize me for racism)

So here it goes.. Dota was circulated on the internet years ago.. and just within few months, practically the whole world is nt just enjoying this game.. but they were ADDICTED to it, and do take note that the majority of players are teenagers.

So heres the mechanism of action of this sadistic weapon.. it makes teenagers so addicted to this damn game they practically have no life.. and spend hours sitting behind a computer gang-banging heroes and not doing creative thinking. so when they grow up and take over the world, they're probably have 0.. i mean ZERO subtance in their lil brains other than what to buy and how to kill heroes..

So heres the question... if teenagers around the whole world is addicted to dota.. which country would benefit most from it? answer is simple.. think of a country where people live in tress, without electricity, without cars, without entertainment(other than tribal sex)...
So.. any country came into ur mind?... nvm, regardless.. i think 1 continent already did.. So.. needless to say.. You know, i know..

Conclusion:
Quit dota (i probably wont tho, im infected too badly)... dont let this bloody sadistic psychological weapon effect you and your country. All the best.

Joys of wikipedia..

So i came home trying to do my portfolio when i suddenly thought of sumthing that Stacie said.. something about wearing wat ring in what finger means what..? so i thought mayb i'd look it up in Wiki..
well, i didnt exactly gain any info about that.. but u i love those hyperlink crap in those pages of wikipedia.. 
and so i stumbled across an article about the psychology behind human romance.. and then i stumbled again an article about the neuroscience behind love.. was kinda interesting.. knowing that 'true love' starts with sum Dopamine.. and sustained by some Oxytocin.. amazing stuff eh?
and the brain of a person in love actually behaves in a similar way as to a person suffering from obsessive compulsive dz.
So then... for the third time i stumbled across yet another article.. its called the "restless legs syndrome" or more dramatically known as Wittmaack-Ekbom's syndrome... so i read thru it and WHATAFARK???!! Did you know habitual leg shaking is a syndrome that is possibly caused by lack of sleep, low iron or even genetic inheritance? I mean.. WOW.. NIH actually went thru great lenghts to even set up criterias for ppl who shake their leg.. 
LoL.. and then i recall my elderlies telling me that back in the olden days prostitutes shake their legs as a sign to 'customers'... probably they werent paid well enough.. hence low income.. resulting in low iron...
you know la.. iron source from red meat very expensive...

First post: today's day..

1 words describes the day: CRAP
started the day with a breakfast with Marzuki and Guo heng.. 2 very good frens from high school.. and i just had to meet up with Marz 1 more time b4 he goes to S'pore to further studies.. the whole breakfast session was spent talking about stuff other than Marz and he leaving to S'pore. Nvm that, coz its still good to meet him 1 more time for quite a long time.
so ok.. breakfast was done.. its time for uni.. and then i drove to uni.. it was only when i reached uni that i realised.. shit, i left a thumbdrive containing my report back at home.. so i was thinking of ways to retrieve it without going back.. and WALAA ! thought of something.. i'd call Jasmine to pick it up for me on her way to uni since she starts later...
Mana tau.. msg her then she replied saying that she's already in uni.. but its ok la.. np.. after practical... had to go all the way home to take it.. skiping Dr. Ajun's class in the unfortunate process. But its ok la.. still manage to print out everything and handed up report on time. 
Other than that, alls just the normal routine... lecture-practical... go home, then portfolio... writing out a day like this in a post already boring.. imagine living it..

Tmr's probably just about the same routine... but thats just Bpharm life.. and for some reason im glad im part of it..

Intros first..

So anyway.. if ur in this blog u'll probably know me already. So JUST IN CASE u dont..
the name's Lum Wai San @ Andrew.

and in case u still do not know this yet.. im taking a local course in pharmacy in IMU and this course is known as Bpharm. And as most of you would've already know this course is more like a sabotagic suicide mission to burn away about RM130k from daddy's wallet before getting killed by PBLs, Portfolios, Practical Reports, yada-yada-ya...
Well, i didnt really know that when i signed up for this so i've got not much of any intention of dying in the process of completing this course. Hence i've got no choice but to endure.
I practically spend most of my life in uni and life in uni is kinda shaped by the events and people around me in uni.. 
so, theres a thing about my frens in IMU... i saw them for the first time 1 year ago and i thought to myself "omg, i've just arrived at el-nerd-o-heaven"...  winding the clock forward by 1 year (today) and i still think EVERY1 of them are nerds.. I mean, just look at me, here i am writing crap in my newly created blog and every1 else is probably doing portfolio research..
But honestly speaking, here in IMU, i think i've met a bunch of frens whom i can actually call FRIENDS.. people who are honest enough to tell you your flaws(tho there are some who bring honesty to a whole new level and practically tell u thru a loudspeaker),  people who dont mind skipping class to just stone/sleep in the student lunge and also friends who will always be there in times of need (especially 1 week after every practical).  i can proudly say that these are the people who bring life into the otherwise boring lecture-practical-study routine..
Hmmph.. i think that practically sums up life in uni.

Moving on to something more 'ME' orientated..
1) i like jokes and i like to laugh.. its one of the lil joys in life that people take for grunted..
2) i have a tendency for random thoughts,dreams and ideas.. mostly crap.. sumtimes inspiring, sumtimes disturbing, but still...mostly CRAP.. but crap or gold, i just wanna say it out, and its probably the reason why i started this blog too... just to note down the little thoughts i have, and not push it to a corner of my mind where it is left alone and forgotten.
3) i fullfil all characteristics of a Taurus..
4) i love music, fun, the joy, the crowd, the noise, the life...

So i think that basically sums up all thats available to sum about me..
