I don't know why the chinese kids are making a big fuss about going back to 6th college in UM. Just because of more &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;strict&lt;/span&gt; rules? I mean, what's wrong with NOT wearing shorts to eat at dewan makan? You can die from hyperthermia is it? Or your feet can fall off from the strangulation of long pants? I mean, it's such a small issue that's being fanned by stupidity. I just don't get them really. So what if 6 college is managed by a more conservative management compared to Klang? Please respect the Malay and Muslim culture... the chinese are sick selfish bastards, myself included, haha. Just wear shorts when going out with friends la.... such a simple solution. Hey, I'm half Malay and I do enjoy showing off mah sexay legs when I'm out shopping.... who's to see them back at campus anyways? And I don't want to be flamed by extremists ;D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, the second issue. Before I move on, I have nothing against Bersih nor do I support them. This is because my understanding of politics isn't quite good and I'd rather watch and learn first then make decisions later. I'm talking about kids who do not bother to keep in touch with national affairs. I mean, this Bersih thing has been in the paper for weeks and you don't know a single thing about it? Do you like, live in a shell buried in the sand? And I'm pointing this to Malay girls. So... oblivious. If a war were ever to happen... then you'd be the first to die just because you left the house and got hit by a bomb you didn't know about.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And about said girls.... oh my sdgjhgdfagjs it's so embarrassing to go out and eat with them. I mean, are we that poor and pitiful that we need to steal and filch from restaurants. I mean, you know that stirrer they put in your drinks, yeah they stole those. Then came the stories of past exploits. Chili sauce from KFC... just selfish really. No wonder they don't leave the sauce anymore on the tables and you gotta ask for them at certain places. It's because of people like you. I almost died from embarrassment... I'm never eating out with this bunch of people anymore... and I only did then because we were celebrating someone's birthday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay... that's all the rambling for today.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-139774986189038196?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/139774986189038196/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=139774986189038196' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/139774986189038196'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/139774986189038196'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2011/07/imbeciles-and-bersih-20.html' title='Imbeciles and Bersih 2.0'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-7344479819676612156</id><published>2011-01-22T17:43:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-22T18:00:31.474-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Its 2011!</title><content type='html'>A new post for the new year. I just noticed I had only 4 entries last year o_o&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I'm in my third year of medical school and life's been pretty okay. Klang is... interesting but boring. But I prefer clinical years than theory so I'm not complaining (unlike some pampered buggers here who like to complain about every little thing, eg: food. If you don't like it then scram, eat out.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;... Now I feel like ranting about this. Last week, some brat complained to the office that it doesn't like cafeteria food (I'm calling it &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; because it doesn't deserve to be called something human-like). Just because of one person the whole batch of 200+ people have to bear the consequences. We almost didn't have a cafeteria anymore. Personally speaking I like Klang food better than 6th at UM. If I knew who the bugger is, I'd make sure it'll go home with a permanent disability somewhere. I bet the little brat never cooked its entire life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, enough with the ranting and back to real life talkings. I'll be going to Gerik for my Community Residential Program (CRP) in March. In truth I'm both excited and scared. I heard Gerik is a really isolated place, and getting there I'll have to drive through mountainous areas. I don't think I'll be driving there. But we'll be there for only for 2 weeks and I think I'll manage. I hope we're staying in a kampung-like area. I like places like that C:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now on to another topic. I'm starting doll collecting (but I wouldn't call myself a collector as I have only &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;one &lt;/span&gt;doll, haha). Planning to get a second one after Chinese New Year with my angpao money, hoho. Hopefully the doll I'm targeting will still be there after the holidays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/TTuLPWUFGtI/AAAAAAAAAHo/TF1d0Omt9bo/s1600/IMG_2500.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;

I can't believe someone could be SO irresponsible. It's just a fucking memo. You can fucking type it in like... fucking 15 minutes? I gave you &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;2 days&lt;/span&gt;, even the number of the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;person who could help you&lt;/span&gt; with the memo. But right before the due date to pass the folio, you fucking told me that you &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;don't know&lt;/span&gt; how to do it? You &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;lost&lt;/span&gt; her number? Sounds like you were being a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;lazy ass&lt;/span&gt; and wanted someone to do it for you. Thankful for you I was willing to do it, because it would effect my marks since it was a group project. I'm never going to let you be in any group with me in the future. Only know how to study, but no responsibility. You're gonna be a sucky doctor, let me tell you that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then, there are the liars. I fucking. hate. liars. She can easily say a lie. I know she knows I know, but I'm too kind. I keep thinking, 'it's just a small matter'. I'm too easy to be taken advantaged of. I need to be more tough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next, it was the business project thingie. I mean, it's a group business thing right? At least help others by actually sending all the boxes of doughnuts to the orderers room. But you were being selfish and lazy and practically left it at the dining hall for people to take, only taking your part of the order and sending it to people who ordered from you. Thank god someone told me she had a missing order and I bothered to check the dining hall. I know you have another activity later that day, but the boxes will just take 10 minutes of your time to deliver. I was already tired from going to Sunway to pick up the doughnut orders, you could at least help us by doing this small, insignificant act of kindness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All complains are no fun, no? So I'm gonna start on compliments now. One friend of mine (I would say that his heart, mind and soul are in the right path, may many good things come to him in the future) was willing to run all the way to 2nd college to get a rogue order for his seniors. Imagine, running from 6th, going to 2nd, and running back all the way to the faculty. And our leader, he may act indifferent, but I know he has put much effort and time into our project. He was also taking part and helping in other events. Kudos to him. And another female friend. She was always on time, and helping out with the boxes and orders and never complained.

I know I still have room for more improvement. And I need to control my anger. I get pissed too easily. But I can only vent my anger by complaining on my blog.

Students from the 1st-3rd years are not allowed to bring their cars into campus. They can only go through the Damansara (PJ) gate all the way till 10th college. Anywhere further than that, you'll be stopped by the guard and asked to turn around or be asked for your identification. It really shocked me when I was stopped the first time in campus. I was following a friend to drive around campus in her car, but when we passed 10th college (near the komplex sukan area there), guards asked us to stop and asked for our identification. I was just eating dinner before the short trip, so the only things I had with me were my Kad Makan and my room keys. My friend didn't even bring her driving license (although I did asked her if she brought one before she left, but she told me 'ronda-ronda campus je. Takyah guna lesen). Who knew, kena tahan pulak. So the conclusion here : always bring your driving licence whenever you wanna drive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, back to the point. UM has been doing something to curb the congestion in campus. Seriously, after the guards appearing, there has been less trafic around my faculty. The number of people double, triple parking has been reduced. Greatly. But the are a few problems that arise from this matter. Students who were alrady bringing cars (those from asasi, 1st, 2nd and 3rd years) couldn't bring their cars in campus. Or else they'll be fined RM50. My friend got it already. Fortunately for me, I don't have a car with me at the moment because it was sent for repairs. Talk about timing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But UM's (or can I say, the VCs?) decision is not a win-win situation. Maybe after a while the commotion might die down. Or maybe people wouldn't care much if they have cars or not in campus. Or people will still complain and complain and complain, but not giving any suggestions or any form of help to better the situation. But for the moment, I'll just wait and see what'll happen... and I'll be car-less for the moment!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-6305411615042305994?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/6305411615042305994/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=6305411615042305994' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/6305411615042305994'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/6305411615042305994'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2009/07/trouble-in-um.html' title='Trouble in UM...'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-7193993460387974472</id><published>2009-06-29T21:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-29T22:00:01.279-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Your opinion?</title><content type='html'>I saw &lt;a href="http://blog.limkitsiang.com/2008/07/17/university-of-malaya-medical-student-intake/"&gt;this article&lt;/a&gt; in DAP's Lim Kit Siang's blog.&lt;br /&gt;(concerns medical students of UM)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's your opinion?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-7193993460387974472?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/7193993460387974472/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=7193993460387974472' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/7193993460387974472'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/7193993460387974472'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2009/06/your-opinion.html' title='Your opinion?'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-2290540899446030751</id><published>2009-06-22T09:49:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-22T10:38:00.770-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Remembering back the days...</title><content type='html'>My friends from school who just finished form 6 are now getting ready to get into university. For most of them, it's their first time leaving home and staying someplace new. It somehow reminds me of the days when I had to leave home for the first time: when I had to go for matriculation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since my brother already went ahead of me the year before, I had little trouble with the preparations. But the thought of leaving the comforts of home were kind of troubling. Heck, I think I had trouble sleeping on my first night. But after a while I got used to it. Well, who wouldn't eventually?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember the hectic day of registering. I came in a bit late, and somehow lined up at the wrong block for registrations, causing me to get the topmost floor, at the very end of the corridor. But I guess that was a blessing in disguise because the room I got had an awesome scenery. Very good for stress relief *thumbs up*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think going to matriculation was one of the best things that happened in my life. It changed who I am, from what I used to be. I used to be a very very shy person who couldn't speak up at all. In short, I was useless. I hated the me of that time. Being away from home taught me to be stronger and more independent. I think I opened up a bit after coming back from matrix.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I think there was one shortcoming from my matrix experience. Fights with roommates! Arguments between roommates are unavoidable because you'll be with them in the room most of the time. You get to learn their bad sides and their good sides. You also find out things that you do that annoy your roommates (in my case, I laugh uncontrollably when I watch funny dramas). I know I was annoying, so I try suppressing my laughter, or watched my dramas in other friends' rooms who don't mind laughing with me. But one of the roommates couldn't stand me (and she couldn't stand another roommate who likes to sing while studying), blames us for interrupting her studies, and stormed out of the room 2 weeks before finals. I was already stressed with the nearing finals, so I guess I broke down when she left the room. I really couldn't stand her. She blamed us for making so much noise but she herself makes an equal amount of noise too. Noise from roommates is unavoidable. You have to put up with it. But I guess she too was stressed because she had boyfriend problems. Until now I still haven't made up with her... I really should though...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In UM I too have roommate problems. I have a roommate who likes to talk on her handphone when I'm studying or when I'm about to sleep. Do you know how annoying it is, when you're sleepy and want to sleep early to be fresh the next day for class, your roommate starts talking (did I mention loudly?) on the phone. She talks and talks and talks and you lay awake in bed for an hour before she finally shuts up. But I put up with her because I didn't want the same problem to occur from matrix. So I guess that's why we aren't so close like other roommates. (I'm kinda sorry for my roommate though)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[somehow this is becoming a rant, ahha ^^;;]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, going to UM is a good experience too. I learnt to be responsible. Not a lot but a bit. I was kind of active in college activities. You get to know more people, and have a bit of fun. I kinda enjoyed my first semester, but I guessed I played too much till I failed my first semester exam =_=;; . But after working harder in my second semester, I passed my MBBS course (thank god!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to be in my second year soon. I hope I won't encounter any serious problems.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-2290540899446030751?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/2290540899446030751/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=2290540899446030751' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/2290540899446030751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/2290540899446030751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2009/06/remembering-back-days.html' title='Remembering back the days...'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-2699428269261704229</id><published>2009-06-01T07:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-01T07:07:03.992-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I don't like the recession  :C</title><content type='html'>Because I can't buy the things I want even though they're cheap.&lt;br /&gt;AND I keep getting these urges to buy useless things D:&lt;br /&gt;SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME? ;3;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I shouldn't spend so much.

He's like, Diva no.2 (No.1 goes to Hanna)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And my parents don't scold them as often as they scolded me or my brother on the excuse that they're 'too old and tired' to layan them. Now, if it were me...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Imran. Argh, do I even need to mention? He plays the wii till 2 a.m. even though exams are nearing D: Luckily I caught him, or he could have stayed awake the whole night D:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah yeah, I know I myself was a brat in the olden days. But I've started washing plates when I was Faiz's age. I think he doesn't even know how to do it D:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And yes, I know I was a bad example for Imran because I myself was the one who started the 'wake up at night to play the PC' thing. But, exam week! He should at least refrain himself there. He's taking SPM this year for goodness sake D: I know I wasn't stupid enough to sacrifice exams for games.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And last of all, the eating habit! Faiz and Hanna buys sweets practically once every 3 days. Darn 7eleven to be near the house. Although I myself am a sweet tooth, I know when I should stop taking sweets (although I know some out there might find it hard to believe this, ahha)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lemme quote a conversation that went between Faiz and me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Me : Faiz, you should drink plain water more often than gassy drinks&lt;br /&gt;Faiz : No, I don't like plain water. It's bitter.&lt;br /&gt;Me : ...&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And when I tell my dad to not buy carbonated drinks (and asked him to buy more juice), he came back from tesco with 2 bottles of 100 plus and 2 six-pack sweet drinks.

He was a Chinese and he was helping a foreign student to get into a nearer residential college to the faculty. The Malay office lady was acting indifferent to his attempts to ask if there were any rooms available. It kinda pissed me off when she gave him the cold shoulder. Sometimes I'm ashamed to be half Malay, thinking how some of the Malays have such closed minds. Ignoring people just because they're not Malay. It happened to me a few times too, because I'm very chinese looking. It's kind of amusing sometimes. They can give me the cold treatment at first, but when they find out that I'm half Malay, or Muslim, or when they notice that my BM is too good, you can really see the 360' change of attitude.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But then, being half Chinese ain't good either. The 'pure' Chinese don't like those who are 'bananas', yellow outside but white inside : meaning they look Chinese, but can only talk in English. But then, I don't think the Chinese here ain't bad. Most of them are willing to befriend me, so I haven't encountered any problems so far. And I do know a few other 'bananas' such as myself... only that they aren't mixed. I guess it's much harder for them cause they don't have an excuse of being mixed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-2241365786552772513?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/2241365786552772513/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=2241365786552772513' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/2241365786552772513'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/2241365786552772513'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2009/02/racial-discrimination.html' title='Racial discrimination?'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-4692344005976203869</id><published>2009-02-13T07:00:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-27T05:31:06.692-08:00</updated><title type='text'>...</title><content type='html'>I'm too lazy to think of a title D:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, it's been a while since my last post. Our MPIS dinner was held early this month. The location was okay but the food weren't that great. I felt kinda guilty eating the shark's fin :C &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But i saw lots of wacky clothes there. There was this second (or may I say first?) year d00d who dressed up like a Japanese punk from Harajuku. I wanted to take a picture of him but... he went away before I had the chance to take a shot with my phone :C . Surprisingly he won best dressed. If it were me, I'd call it weird... and that's a complement coming for me. I just adore people who dresses weird (likemyself*cofcof*). The female best dressed went to a final year. She sure had some weird+BIG headpiece. I wonder how she can walk with that thing balanced on her head. And it was SHINY... D:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So in a nutshell, you have to be brave enough to dress weird to win best dressed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My finals are coming soon. It scares me to know I have to pass this to not take supplementary classes. I WANT MY 2 MONTH HOLIDAY GODDARNIT D:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope that's enough to get me studying. I need someone to nag me to study D:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;... And I have a camp with the 4th year seniors tomorrow. I hope it's not stressful or anything. I'm lazy to go... but it's free and it's somewhat a good way to relax.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-4692344005976203869?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/4692344005976203869/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=4692344005976203869' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/4692344005976203869'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/4692344005976203869'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2009/02/blog-post.html' title='...'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-5737778194601226170</id><published>2009-01-14T03:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-14T03:27:05.235-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Weekend report!</title><content type='html'>FIS was held last weekend.

But I guess I'll be seeing them too this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I can't believe events that had happened in the previous year. Somehow I've gotten slightly braver... but still a coward nonetheless. I need to talk often.... and BETTER &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;[ yes, I'm a mumbling idiot. Typing is much more easier :C ]&lt;/span&gt; . I still haven't made more new friends. I feel like I've isolated myself from society. It's so hard to make new acquaintances *weeps*. And my results... &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;well I failed so shush&lt;/span&gt;. I need to work harder this year... AND GET MYSELF AND IPOD. lame, I know :B &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;[ but it's HARD to keep an mp3 that still runs on batteries :C ]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I guess those are the only things I'm unsatisfied from the previous year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Changes I've made.... hmmm... I guess the way I present myself. I remembered once upon a time I was kinda obsessed with black... now I'm obsessed with bright colours &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;[ESPECIALLY YELLOW COLOURED NAIL POLISH... and not forgetting my favourite colour green :B]&lt;/span&gt;. And when I was younger I ignored all types of fashion magazines for teenagers. Now I read CLEO~ . It's amusing how time changes you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess that's all.... I'm too lazy to type more and think of more things to type. [and people would say... how did this lazy girl get herself into medicine in UM xD]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm looking forward for this year ;D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On a side note, my residential college in UM (6th college, Ibnu Sina) is holding an expo/festival on the 10th and 11th of January.

Just because I'm the only one in the block that has a printer doesn't mean you can abuse that priviledge.... *sigh* I feel like leaving that darn printer back at the BU house...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[Heck, she even asked me for the printer last Friday.

In the mornings we'll usually have lectures and maybe tutorials (we bombared the tutors with questions, ahha). In the afternoons it's mostly practicles, watching slides thru the microscope and examining the cadavers (aka, dead bodies... although they're kinda preserved-looking... like mummies :/ ). We don't get fresh bodies cause well, it seems that they don't import cadavers from India anymore :'(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ahha, I'm supposed to be doing some research on shoulder joints right now.... back to google.

Very thick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, some of the students are pretty open.&lt;br /&gt;And so are most of the lecturers.&lt;br /&gt;It's those who aren't that get on my nerves.&lt;br /&gt;They have this weird type of logic. Let me show you the maths...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malay = Muslim&lt;br /&gt;Chinese = Buddhist/ Christian&lt;br /&gt;Indian = Hindu&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And there were these group of seniors who asked all Muslim students to stay back for a while after lecture and said (and I quote)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"Budak Melayu jangan bagi budak chinese nota-nota awak, sebab the chinese takkan bagi awak nota diorang, no matter what. Kalau dapat pun, dapat je la. Jangan bagi diorang apa-apa. Kite Muslim mesti bersatu."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And there I was, a chinese-looking Muslim staring back at him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, to tell you the truth, he was actually a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;repeat&lt;/span&gt; student. Smart huh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But anyhow, I was of prepared for this. I'm guessing a lot more things (good and bad) will come in the future. This 'berpuak-puak' attitude has been in UM for a lot of years, but I hear there are 2nd and 3rd years who are trying to change that. I wonder if there is any truth in their words. But with or without them, I'll try my best too to form an interracial community in UM (no matter how cheesy it may sound xD)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its a pity really, since UM is bragging that it is a 5 star university....&lt;br /&gt;but to me it has a no star in unity.&lt;br /&gt;And we shout 'UM is ONE' throughout the first week of haluansiswa aka. orientation.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-3286184785077758565?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/3286184785077758565/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=3286184785077758565' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/3286184785077758565'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/3286184785077758565'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2008/07/life-in-um.html' title='Life in UM?'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-3853105719592399415</id><published>2008-06-18T16:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-18T17:33:26.050-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Universities anyone?</title><content type='html'>I got a few friends who went into UM, and even one with the same course as me xD Quite a number got UKM, and there's also UiTM, UPM, UTM, UMP... and others that I can't remember at the moment :'P. Wish you guys all the best!~ And when we have time, lets meet up 'kay &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;[although I don't think &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:78%;" &gt;I&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt; can since I'm guessing my uni life to be very very busy? xD]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm so happy that I got UM. When we were at Matriculation, there was this one week where the college invited students from UM to hold a motivation programme for us. Since that day I was  attracted to UM. Ah, can't wait to learn the cheer for my residential college xD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now... to get myself ready for university.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stuffs to do :&lt;br /&gt;1.

The place was full of people, so it looked like a good place &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(It was my second time there)&lt;/span&gt;. Note one thing : &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;NEVER&lt;/span&gt; judge a book by its cover.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we went there, the waiter gave us our seats and took our orders. T'was okay till after that. We waited. And waited. And waited some more. Nothing arrived except for two cups of plain water &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(and there were 5 of us... don't they know how to count?)&lt;/span&gt;. Guess what, the food arrived before the drinks... something I've first encountered at an eaterie. And they served our veggies after we finished our rice. Smart huh? We 'kindly' asked the man to take back the veggies and cancel it from out bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I compare this experience with my first time there. That day everything was fine. The orders came fine. We got everything... except maybe they switched someone's drink &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(who I think is Imran)&lt;/span&gt;. We ate at good time, no waiting and asking when the order's arriving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can make two types of conclusion:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;1.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;They judge their customers&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; On the first day, we wore 'respectable' looking clothes. Well, my mom didn't wear the sorry things she calls clothes &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(sorry Mama, but sometimes I just don't like how you look in jeans and T's ^^; )&lt;/span&gt;. She sometimes gets mistaken as a maid D; &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(I hate people who makes conclusions without getting the facts right)&lt;/span&gt;. The 'Mat Salehs' get their orders pretty fast. And so are people who look 'rich'. On the second day... well, we were wearing kind of slacky clothes... and my father didn't help with the 'good first impression' part.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;2.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 51, 0);"&gt;They've just gotten too big&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 51, 0);"&gt;can't handle their customers&lt;/span&gt; properly. Everything's out of hand. They don't even know what we ordered &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(our drinks were mixed up with some else's)&lt;/span&gt;. Well, there were a lot of people there.... and the person who was in charge of our section didn't look like he could handle things properly. He was all 'kelam-kabut'-ish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But its a real pity, the place has such &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;good food&lt;/span&gt;. Kinda sad that it might go bad just because of poor management.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-6602723479263688187?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/6602723479263688187/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=6602723479263688187' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/6602723479263688187'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/6602723479263688187'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2008/05/well-we-went-out-for-dinner-today.html' title='Well, we went out for dinner today...'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384218194065163361.post-3751483891989692470</id><published>2008-05-16T23:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-17T00:01:45.872-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Hanna you foo D;</title><content type='html'>Yeah, I'm pissed at her at the moment.

Sometimes I hate it because people always look at you in a strange way, as if I don't belong there. They wonder what language to talk to me and how to greet me. Sometimes I feel I lose friends because I can't communicate with people efficiently.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I feel I'm more Malay than Chinese. I know Malay culture more than Chinese, and I am quite fluent in Malay. I can't speak a proper sentence in Mandarin or any other dialect. My family is closer to our Malay relatives and we meet them quite frequent. I rarely meet relatives from my Chinese side and I am only close to a few of them via the internet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At other times I feel I am more Chinese than Malay. As I have said before, I have a Chinese face. Usually during my first time at a new place, the Chinese will usually greet me first. Besides, I have the mentality of a Chinese. Yes I admit, I ABSOLUTELY DETEST MALAY MENTALITY. They do not want to work hard for anything. They always assume Chinese (or any other race) are smart when they lose behind. They always try to find the easy way out. They only have one plan in life, never thinking of back-up plans in case they fail. They are too materialistic and keep forgetting about their family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BUT what I am saying here does not apply to all Malays, but those who are caught up with the past and not wanting to receive any new opinion from anyone around them. I am saying this from past experience because I used to stay in a room with a Malay with this exact type of idiotic mentality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When she doesn't get good results, she would ask me or my Chinese roommate how we scored. Out of all the stupid questions she gotta ask the stupidest of the lot. Good things do not come without hard effort. She says she's tried hard but what does she do? Sms-ing her boyfriend, daydreaming about getting married with him and almost wanting to kill herself when he broke up with her? I bet she never thought about her family. How they worked hard for her to live a better life than theirs. How much sweat her brother sacrificed to give her that expensive handphone (during the time her dad was admitted to the hospital). Have she ever thought how she could repay the good deeds of her family? I know I love my family a lot and whatever I do to repay their kindness won't be enough. But I'm glad I do not have to see her now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, back to being mixed. I have a feeling that I am ostracized by the society, but bravo to my loyal friends who still befriended me regardless of my race, religion and outward appearance.&lt;br /&gt;I know a lot of people who only got close to me because I was 'smart' and I could be of benefit to them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About the strange glares of people, I've gotten over them. Now I laugh and joke about it. During exams: PMR, SPM, my exams in Matrix and MUET, examiners always do a double take at my table. The check and recheck my IC while looking at my face. Makes you wonder if they had ever encountered a mixed child before, eventhough our society is well known for being multiracial and mixed marriage is not uncommon anymore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ugh, sometimes I hate being mixed. Sometimes I love it because its unique. But I wonder how will I cope it in the future? Now I am still under my parents supervision, but later when I step out into to cruel harsh world, I wonder if there really is a place for me out there?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7384218194065163361-205558871322371755?l=pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/feeds/205558871322371755/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7384218194065163361&amp;postID=205558871322371755' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/205558871322371755'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7384218194065163361/posts/default/205558871322371755'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pond-of-ponderings.blogspot.com/2008/04/sometimes-being-mixed-aint-that-great.html' title='Sometimes being &apos;mixed&apos; ain&apos;t that great...'/><author><name>Shienna</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11097174942793863462</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_X1ewkB8U96c/SBb4yOxh19I/AAAAAAAAAAc/1cOnQF3kaZI/S220/Cooldrink.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry></feed>
