beautiful people

it is an emotional art for a person to be able to have sky-high confidence in what he/she does and yet be so humble about it.

to be a genius and yet cherishes the thoughts of others cos everybody is different in their own ways and hence have different mindset.

to be able to raise him/herself above others without making others feel like they're beneath him/her.

to be able to put a smile on a friend's face and say the right things when things are at the utmost low.

to have the willingness to go the extra mile for a friend even though it might not be in his/her favour.

to know when to draw a line to his/her sarcasm. sometimes its funny most of the time Not.

to know its important to have good communication and people skills all the time and not only cos its required by our profession.

to be able to interact with people from all walks' of life at ease.

to know when to stop talking and start listening to others. a combination of different music notes always sound better than a loud flat treble no?

to be able to share his/her thoughts with another without appearing too full of him/herself.

to know how to sell him/herself to the superiors in a sophisticated manner and yet be so humble when grandiosity is not necessary.


this is totally random. i just like to observe people :)
its an excuse to get away from PP2 for a short while :P

frowns

i love my tutor for being not prejudiced nor angry with me for performing way below par for my biopharm class test. im not talking about making 5 mistakes and making a hooha out of it like some people do.

thank god he didnt give me the lecture on how-sponsored-students-are-supposed-to-maintain-good-academicrecords
-throughout-all-the-semesters. thanks for being understanding. i was already close to tears.

i must say that my consistency depends alot on 50% luck and 50% memory. on that fateful morning of exam, my amethyst bracelet broke, mr. cockroach said hi to me and my stomach was churning from food poisoning. i felt jinxed the whole day. yes, im superstitious. but i went on and faced the paper with a smile cos i filled my mind with thoughts of going home the next day. but still feel a tinge of jinx nevertheless. it didnt go away. so it was 10%luck left and prolly 35% memory. that totally didnt help.

i tried to be optimistic. ive not seen good results in a while. im afraid that the happiness i had from better results in the past would not be enough to sustain me emotionally if things are still going downhill.

i keep telling myself to buck up, study hard if not HARDER. a fren told me she feels worthless cos she feels like shes the weakest academically among some of her peers. i gave her the do-not-compare-yourself-to-others-cos-u-are-perfect-in-your-own-ways speech to console her but i was actually trying to comfort myself?

i duno man. didnt mean to be emo. just a class test anyways. just that the amount of effort i put in was not justified. you dont normally get to reap what u sow do you?

fireworks!!

yes. like ive mentioned before. i LOVE fireworks.

thanks to some orang kaya that fed my fetish earlier.

so kaya, they had to play their fireworks on the 12th day of cny. when its all quiet and boring. so that everybody will run to the balcony and look at their amazing display of fireworks.

it was AMAZING nevertheless. it lasted for like almost 15mins. hehe



ps: sorry for the jakun-ish comments we made. pls ignore :P

whipped ocean

Suddenly the shoreline north of Sydney were transformed into the Cappuccino Coast .. Foam swallowed an entire beach and half the nearby buildings, including the local lifeguards' centre, in a freak display of nature at Yamba in New South Wales .

to read more, click here

its like my childhood fantasy coming true. i remember how i used to make foams out of my body shampoo and stayed in the tub for hours fantasizing about god-knows-what.

imagine a whole sea of foam. im so jealous.

home for study break??

the thought of the impending stretch of long study break never fail to depress me. should i go home for the whole 2 1/2 weeks or not?

pros:
  • dont have to worry about meals
  • i dont go online so often
  • no homesickness
  • have my sister to slave around for me :P


cons:
  • tv-major distraction
  • im afraid that i wont be able to adapt studying in a diff place..im not one of those who can study anywhere at anytime :(
  • i'll be the only one studying at home

im so homesick its depressing if im required to write about depression on monday i can definitely write few pages long on a real case scenario.

hugs and kisses

had a singles outing yesterday. as usual. but the group had shrunk in size considerably *wink*

had lunch in Fusion Haven. Food was great, company was great and we were reminiscing the first time we were there after our FIRST class test (16mcqs)

life was much easier then. we've definitely come a long way since then :)

i thought i was gonna sleep through dinner. thank god the guys ajak-ed us out to makan. i was just joking when i said i was going to have candelit maggi mee dinner with ahyi. they got my hint.keke

(edited on request by ahyi)
after dinner, we had pomelo brought all the way from ipoh (by ahyi) accompanied with peach white wine courtesy of peilian from Luxembourg. It was a divine combination. the pomelo was oozing juices while the white wine was so smooth everyone was orgasmic after that. LOL. only white wine and pomelo. no dudes. thank god. god knows what we'll do if theres any *WINK*

it was an oK day overall. nth much to shout about. i was instead looking forward to all the fireworks cos all the hokkiens would 'pai tin gong' accompanied with lavish spread of delicacies, prayers paraphernalia, and lotsa fireworks. yes, i LOVE fireworks. gosh i felt homesick more than ever.

not forgetting, thanks chiyuan for the handmade rose. its very pretty. thanks for taking the effort to put a smile on (20-30?) girls' faces on such special occasion :)

i hope everybody had a great valentine's day :)

XOXO
