PICTURES!!!!

*Post written half a bloody year ago*

And because it is written half a bloody year ago, I shall not talk anymore. These are taken during Interaction Week with the seniors, exactly the second week after we checked into UM 7th College, Kolej Za'Ba.

I'll leave most of them captionless =_= They're mostly pictures of my then group, Cell 3, and the members are mostly Malays with only a handful of Chinese and two Indians and one Bidayuh (at least I THINK he's Bidayuh @_@)

Just have a look ^^ It surprised me how NON-studious UMians can be, I kid you not @_@




Singing the school song while someone sprayed us from behind @@




Paint all over our faces ^^







Me and my roomate lol ^o^







Don't ask =_______=

















The End.

I can't stand big fat LIARS

Still sorting through the pictures. 3GB okay! No joke trying to filter the good pictures from the bad!!! =O=

************

Okay this is a story I heard from my mom this morning.

She met the mother of an ex-classmate of mine at the market this morning. So being two housewives who has a daughter each who are both of the same age in different states doing two different courses in two different universities, they naturally talked about their daughters.

Mrs T: Ei where's your daughter now aa?

Mama: Oh she's now in UM doing Linguistics.

Mrs T: Really aa? My daughter now doing Finance at *****. Her STPM result not so good.

Mama: Wah Thank God my daughter got 2.9 lo! She got the course she wanted she was so happy!

Mrs T: Haiya your daughter didn't take Accounts ma~ You know Form6 Accounts very hard wan~

Mama: Oh......

Mrs T: Actually UPU sent my daughter to Sabah~ She told her father she don't want to go~ Crying all over her face~ So her father said ok lo~ Then send her to *****

Mama: ............................I see.

********************

First off, I DID take Accounts in Form6 =_______= This Auntie is obviously trying to make her daughter whose "STPM result not so good" sound better than me. As in, take harder subjects, harder to score, etc.

My mother, sadly, was confused by this point because she SAW me doing Accounts papers and cannot comprehend why this auntie is saying these things with such confidence =_= She thought I dropped the subject.

Her daughter and I were classmates. We took the exact same subjects, except that she took Math and I took Computing, and we both sat for ALL our papers.

So instead of saying Form6 Accounts not easy that's why my results better than her daughter's, she could have just admitted that I did better in ALL my other papers besides Accounts, because that's the truth.

I got a C- in my Accounting paper, A- in Economics, B+ in Computing and B in my General Paper. I scored 3.00 points or more in all my other papers besides Accounting, which is only 1.67, and THAT's why my CGPA was pulled down =_=

And here this auntie is trying to make her daughter sound better than I am =O=

Oh yes I don't deny that Computing is easier to score than Math. Our Paper 3 was a guaranteed A, so we only needed to worry about the other 2 papers, which covers only 70%. Paper 3 was our project by the way.

At the beginning of Lower6 I actually expected her to give up Math and take up Computing instead, since Computing is like, a guaranteed Pass, no matter how badly you could have done. But she chose Math instead, and when I asked, she said she just cannot stand doing projects on the computer for so long =_=

So there, she was lazy =_=

Secondly, "UPU sent her to Sabah" =__________=

Hello Auntie~ We all have common sense okay. Miracles only happen so many times in life =_=

Even you admit your daughter's STPM results not good. Did you imagine for a moment that UPU would even consider her? Keep in mind that tens of thousands of students apply to further their education in our local universities. If her results are anything less than desirable she is unlikely to even be considered.

Besides, if she didn't want to go to Sabah in the first place, why would she even bother putting it in her list?

If your daughter didn't make it into local uni, just admit it and tell the truth! No one's gonna laugh at her! People will laugh when they've found out what sort of lies you've been telling to save yourself that face!

Can't stand liars...Urgh!

Short Reply

Just a short note. Pictures aren't ready =_= NIZAM!!!!!!!! TOT

See, I cannot NOT think. If everyone doesn't think, we would still be living in trees =_=


This is what happens when you read. It stimulates your brain and triggers your thinking. Whether or not you agree with what you read is an entirely different story.

One of the many reasons I follow blogs is because I love reading. From there it triggers thoughts and emotions. I read a person's thoughts and opinions, from there onwards I pick out points of my own, think from my own perspective, and then I will either agree or disagree with the author, or, I admit here, laugh at or ridicule him or her.

I'm sure everyone goes through the same process when they read anything =_= If you do not think or reevaluate what you have read then you shouldn't even read in the first place, which is impossible because you have to read no matter where you go =_= road signs?

Yes you also have to think when you read road signs =o= Come on you don't have to make sure which is left and which is right? =____________=

The fact that someone reads my blog, get mad at me for disagreeing with themselves or ridiculing them makes my point even more obvious.

Now after all your reevaluation, I have the choice to write down what I think, my own opinions, my perspective of the whole story. Am I plagiarising? No! I am only blogging about my own opinions based on another person's blog entry. I am not copying, so I don't see why I should keep my thoughts to myself.

People will be offended? Yes I don't doubt that. I hit the "PUBLISH POST" button with that in mind.

But I have also learned that in life you cannot please everybody. To stick by your own opinions you will offend someone, that's a sure thing. And I do not know any bloggers who does not have haters. I became a hardcore blogger with that in mind and I am prepared to welcome haters.

So no, I will not change my mind just because people are offended. Unless you give me proof or evidence that I am utterly wrong, I will not surrender.

That's all. Until next post when I have plenty of time to upload my 3GB worth of pictures. All original, none photoshopped.

More Uni Scandals

UPDATE 1: I checked, and it IS called "Stomp" ROFL XDXD Thanks Brendan! But it's not my fault! My Malay seniors are the ones who misspelled it! XD

UPDATE 2: I am not flaming anyone in this post. Whatever written here is purely just an opinion. It is not meant to be offensive in any way at all, nor am I trying to look smart. If you feel anything then either you have an emotional capacity the size of China, or you are exactly the kind of person I am talking about and feel that you have made a ridiculous decision as well.




It is Interaction Week with the seniors.

And we from cell 3 are asked to perform "Storm" with the theme "1 Malaysia".


Sancta Maria~~~!!! TOT


For those of you who are not aware, Storm is a performance where performers use anything that can produce sounds, like pails, spoons, cups, slippers, hangers, whatever, to make music.


If there wasn't a theme it would have been easy T_T


And and and! We have to ask for 200 signatures from the seniors in less than 3 days.



......



You tell me la how is this possible? T____________T


200 freaking signatures to be handed in by tomorrow night! Are they mad???!!!!!!


Apparently not because it is tradition =___________=

At least this time they don't ask funny questions @_@



**************



I just hopped back here after reading a couple of blogs.


In my honest opinion I think it's ridiculous how some people would do things that are just not them.


This is what i have learnt all throughout my study life. Never do or try to do anything which you know you are not capable of.




If you suck at Accounting in Form 6 DON'T do Finance in college.


If you're not a straight A student DON'T "ngeh si" want to do Medic.


If you hate Science, THROW it behind you and do something you KNOW you can excel in.


If you're not good with numbers, freaking DON'T put Math in as one of your Uni choices. Waste only =_=


When I got into UM I think plenty of people must be jeering behind me, saying that I got in because I took a course the smart-ass students don't want.

And I don't regret it. They go for Medic, Pharmacy, whatever doctor-related course, and look where it got them. They got something they didn't want. (First choice Medic. They got Genetics instead, Fifth choice =_=)

I got a miserable CGPA of only 2.9, yet here I am with all the four flat students, eating at the same table, laughing at the same jokes, sleeping in the same room. My roomies were both Matrics students, one doing Economics and the other doing Statistics, and we got on fine.

Everybody said that Linguistics is a course nobody wanted. They cannot be more wrong. It is a course with very few places. When I went for the interview there were over 40 people in the room, and now I have only 13 classmates.

And I am freaking enjoying my classes more than I have EVER done in my past 13 years of schooling XD

But then again, yes I know, it is all a matter of CHOICE =________=

God this word can be so evil sometimes @_@

No offence everyone. I am just of the opinion that during Uni it is no more a chance to prove to others that you can do something which they think you cannot do. There cannot be less of a time to do so =_= Uni is not easy, which is why we should always play to our strengths.





***********





Interaction week is FUN!!! XDXDXD OMG the Explorace was just amazing T_T But I fell down and scratched myself so I had to keep my wound out of the water, thus making me feel like a retard T_T Had to keep myself dry while I watch my cell members getting wet ToT

Pictures in the next post! I promise! TOT

Random thought

The week after orrientation was damn hectic! Like, okay fine I got more rest then I did compared to orrientation week but really the action just doesn't seem to stop @_@ Everyday I'd be out of campus either with Dad or with friends, and we'd spend the day (after classes) doing something, doesn't matter what @_@


Anyway, today I'm gonna talk about a very out-dated topic, which is......



The death of Michael Jackson.


I sincerely think he looks better black T_T

Okay here's the deal. I am not a frantic fan of his, but I think it is rather absurd that while he was still alive nobody gave a shit about him, but in his death the whole world mourned like the King's son just passed away =_=

Seriously, I feel pity for him that only in his death did he earn the attention which he had been working for all his life.


Of course I am not saying he doesn't deserve any. I personally know some people who are his hardcore fans and needless to say they were torn apart by his sudden death =(


It is utter sadness that he will no longer be around to entertain.


God bless his determined soul.

I want my camera~ T____T

Because I want to take pictures dammit! T_____________T


There are so many posts I would like to write but just cannot find the mood to write because I don't have pictures to explain what I am trying to write. And I just cannot complain all the time because that will make me look like a spoiled brat, which I probably am =_=


I just got my Matric Card, which also acts as a student card, which I can use to get discounts off new spectacles and plenty of other entertainment resources out there. Also I use it to go in and out of the UM gates as I like, and not get into trouble with the guard XD


ALSO! I use it to borrow library books without going to the counter, which saves a lot of time, since plenty of people borrow books at the library, which means that there will be a long line of book-borrowers at the check-out station, which really doesn't make any difference if we have a Matric Card or not =_=

So you see!!! Plenty of things you can do with a UM Matric Card XDXDXD ROFL!!!


Okay what else can I talk about?

AHAH! XDXDXD I can talk about my classes! XD

Which I think will be exceedingly boring so I don't think I will @_@

Just a brief talk then HAHA XD We Linguistics students have to take courses like Proficiency in English, Introduction to Linguistics, Professional Ethics, Phonetics and Phonology, and Literature in English. Oh wait. And also Ethnic Relations. So that's......6 classes =D Poficiency is boring, Intro to Linguistics is also boring, PE is fine, Phonetics is like science in language, which scares me, and Literature was the most fun XD ER is boring too =_=

I know you're all bored out of your skin =____________=

I told you I have no pictures these days~! TOT

By the way I started this post at 1:30pm and now continuing at 12:02am =_=

I love my Faculty seniors! =D They are such lovely people. They actually invited us juniors for a day's outing just to get to know us and brought us to dinner at Delicious =D But of course we need to pay for ourselves la~ There were like, seven of us =_= But still, they were great people ^o^ And it is especially nice to sit in an English-speaking community XD I can't understand why but it seems to me that chinese-speaking chinese are rather stuck-up -_-

I hope I am wrong, really.

But my roomates are okay =D Really!

Oh oh oh OH!!! I BOUGHT A NEW LAPTOP!!!!!!! XDXDXDXD Mad happy because I am now blogging on my new laptop XD It's a new hp Compaq but I'm not sure about the model @_@ Will post up a picture soon XD

I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

Okay this is really just a nonsense post. I promise to write more mind-challenging posts in the future but now I'ma go blog-hop some more =D Some of my seniors have blogs so I'ma go see what they write. See ya all suckers~! XD

I'm FINALLY back!

OMG I am so sorry everyone for abandoning my blog this long but Internet is just not available to me this past week and more =_=

The biggest regret I have right this moment is that I don't have my camera with me T_T

So many things have happenend during orientation that I simply do not know where to start talking T_T

Oh and I just realised that I did not tell you all what program I am actually taking @_@ Hehe~ XD

I am taking a Bachelor's degree in the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics, majoring in English =D Yes I know when I said I am going to UM everyone is all impressed but when I told them about my course they'll go "Oh."

Like all of you right now =_=

And I am going to live at the 7th Residential College for a year.

Anyway the orientation week is like, torture. Seriously it's just plain torturous.

We got only about 3 to 4 hours of sleep a day and we have to wear the same t-shirts everyday. The same, damn, dirty, smelly t-shirts EVERYDAY =____________________= Can you imagine the smell???

But I enjoyed it. I loved orientation week and I miss it. I miss cheering and my group members and our activities. I miss doing everything in a group with my cell members. Farid, Azri, Affan, Khairi, Nik, Lina, Yi Ling, Suh Xing and all the other members. I played futsal for the first time, chased after the stupid ball and kicked it only once in 7 minutes.

Even then I kicked it towards our own goal =_=

But I enjoyed every second of it.

T_______________________T

OMG I really miss orientation week.

And also our Pembantu Mahasiswa, who had worked their asses off for the sake of us. They are the ones who tortured us, making us do half-stands and run around the court ten times when we make mistakes @_@ But they are also the ones who make our orientation week fun and memorable.

I shall post up pictures when I get hold of them =D

And there are things that they say robotically, everyday XD

If you all co-operate with us, we PM will co-operate with you.

If you play the fool with us, we will play the fool with you.

If you give us trouble, we will give you trouble.


Classics, by PM Gigi XDXDXDXDXD

But it is this sentence that make me really alert and awake.

"Do NOT play the fool anymore! You are no longer students! You are all University Undergraduates! Not just any university! You are undergraduates of University Malaya, the best Uni in Malaysia! SO STOP playing the fool!"


And that's something I know I will keep forever.

I am an undergraduate, studying in University Malaya.

And I am just so lucky to be here.
