It's about time I realized that I should follow my dreams!

from thingsweforget.blogspot.com

It feels like home!

Assalamualaikum and hello to all. :)

In case you've been wondering, I am still here, in the holy land of UIA Kuantan (LOL). Nope, I'm not at home. I haven't been home for 1,2,3.....(jap check calendar) SEVEN WEEKS now! And won't be coming home for another THREE WEEKS. Total = TEN WEEKS! It means I haven't seen my parents and my siblings for SEVEN WEEKS!Okay, dah.

 The horrifying 14 weeks of lectures are finally over! And finals approaching! Next week. -____-.
Right now, I'm in the study/discussion room of CF Sister Mahallah Maimunah, enjoying the free, super duper speedy wi-fi! Yaay!


I brought
1. My laptop-duh! (and I have two whole office tables all for myself!)
2. Organic Chemistry notes and book (macam bajet je nak study)
3.  MP3 (can download songs, thanks to the wifi, hoho!)
4. Meena Latif: Heroine of Afghanistan by Melody Ermachild Chavis (I want to make some research about female heroes all over the world! Heroes la, heroine bunyi tak best. Macam, if there's no hero, there'll be no heroine! Heroine tu macam damsels in distress. >___<)


Tonight, I will...
1. Khatam semua video Anwar Hadi and Mat Luthfi, hoho.
2. Download songs
3. Blogwalking
4. Research about RAWA (Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan) and other non-academic related research
5. Err, study kalau ada masa. :P


Biarlah, malam ni je nak enjoy.


With that, thank you. :)

EDIT: Okay, I can't download songs. Good for me! 

WHY??

Why did he have to fall in love with another woman and divorced his wife? STUPID GUY
Why did he marry her in the first place if he wasn’t sure he would continue loving her? STUPID GUY
Why did she (the ex-wife) have to dieeeee??? STUPID (and great) ENDING

Why is the music so sad and melancholic that I would have to cry?? GREAT MUSIC

Sadness, frustration all intermingled into one.

*SNIFF!!!!*

I forgot the last time I ever cried. But it feels SOOO GOOD!! Even though you're crying upon watching a sad movie. Crying is GOOD. HAHAHA.

Dearest Mummy

Assalamualaikum and hello to all.
First of all, I MISS MY MOOOMMMYYY!!!!

Yeah, I miss my mum so much (eh, first time tulis pasal ni). I haven't seen her for more than 2 months. And I MISS HERR!!! :((

Dear Emak,
Sorry for not calling you for two to three days. I have been really busy this week. FIVE QUIZZES! I slept for less than 6 hours in a day and I'm physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted! And I hate the quizzes, particularly, Microbiology quiz. I'm sure the other 98 students from my batch hate it too. >__<

I don't know how this started to happen to me. I've always been a 'smooth' speaker but just now. Argh,, just now! I was a bit panic and nervous, becoming all flabbergasted and I forgot some points and as usual, I would stare into space to look for ideas on what to say next. My friends said I did fine but I know they're just consoling me. I know better after all.This worries me. Public speaking has always been my forte. Not enough preparation, I guess. And I was tired after all.

I love Pharmacology but later on, I do realise that there's so much to be learned about it once you went deeper into the subject. I'm now hesitating (though it's really kind of early) whether I should take Pharmacology as my major in the future. I'm unsure of my future life. But I do know for sure that I don't want to forever working in the boring place called hospital. And to dwell into the industry area, I don't think I'm capable for that. In case of pursuing my studies, I just realised that I'd make a boring lecturer to my future students.
I'm tired of thinking about achieving this and that. I just want to go with the flow and be happy. I know that you and Abah won't pressure me or anything. It's just that I know that I have to work hard. I have aims, dreams, goals that I want to fulfill. 

I do think I should speak English more often. My English is getting rusty. Blurghhh...Oh yeah, speaking about hospital, I went to the hospital just now, for the visit to Central Sterile Supply Unit. It was boring. I don't like hospitals. It's such a dark, gloomy, depressing place for both the workers and the patients.

And Emak, my facilitator for Halaqah called me to say that she had sent my name together with another classmate as potential candidates to become Halaqah facilitator next year. I was a bit shocked. Someone like me? Becoming a halaqah facilitator? I'm not that good. I don't wear tudung labuh. I don't quote Quranic ayats. I watched lots of Japanese Dramas.I drool over cute celebrities. I'm afraid that I will become a bad influence to my 'adik-adik Halaqah'. And a hypocrite. But in a way I realise that this is one of the opportunities that Allah is bestowing upon me due to my desire to change.

I want to change so badly that it puts me in a dilemma. It's hard to leave all those 'wonderful' things behind. But I'll try, insya-Allah. I wanted to become a Muslimah who is respected by both the Muslims and non-Muslims.

I took a brain dominance test just now (from someone's blog) and I realised that I am right-brained. Most people in this world are left-brained. Does that make me special? LOL. But later on, I realised that I am BOTH right brained and left brained. But I prefer being a right-brained person. I want to work in a magazine in the future, I want to travel around the world, I want to become an activist, I want to write best-selling books, I want to change the world.

Don't worry. I will never ever give up. I don't want to admit defeat towards failure. It's just that I'm a bit tired. Or maybe it's due to PMS.

Dear Emak,
I've never said this directly to you but I know that you know that 'I REALLY MISS YOU!!!'
I can't wait for the coming 5 months holidays where I can spend more time with you, abah and adik-adik. I miss home, I miss Sungai Petani. I miss Kedah. I miss going to relatives' houses. I miss KEDAH. Let's go to the gym together, play tennis together and let's grow old gracefully together, hehe.

Dear Emak,
I miss gossiping with you, telling you almost everything about my life, 'bergayut' kat telefon sampai sejam lebih, hehe.

Dear Emak,
I think I'm in love. HAHAHA.

Dear Emak,
For now, you are my BEST FRIEND in the whole wide world. :)

Dear Allah,
Thank you for giving me such a wonderful mother. I will cherish and treasure her for as long as I live. :D

Thoughts: Allah plans everything in unpredictable ways. Yet the results turned out delightful. I am eternally grateful. :)

Anyone out there? This is Sarah, crapping!

 Assalamualaikum and hello to all :)
I've deleted the previous post. HAHA. 


I do want to change but let's keep that between me and Allah. :D

Now, let's get on to business! To my ultimate talent--> CRAPPING! (skil menggoreng)

Know what, the skills of crapping is highly needed and is necessary for your everyday survivals.
1. When you answer essay questions. :P
2. When you give a presentation- to make it longer and more impressive xD
3. When the lecturer suddenly asked you questions and you haven't read anything yet (in the case of UNGS. I didn't read anything when Dr. R suddenly asked about my collection of articles :P)
4. When you're handling a task of persuading-a-guy-to-buy-a-motorcycle in an Explorace competition. 


The most important thing is, you must be confident! It's an essential skill I learned from my debating days. If cat got my tongue and I got stuck between words, my seniors would say 

'Oh, just crap!'

I do think that my crapping skills have developed to a greater extent as compared to when I was at school. Thanks to the English classes and UIA environment- English as the medium of communication, having foreign lecturers and friends.

And I do feel that I'm more confident in delivering my speech/ presentation as I entered the college world. I could not find the reason up till now. :/

I'm proud to announce that I'm a crapper (HUH?) and I shall continue crapping. Thank you.

Three blog posts in a day? My creative gland must have been stimulated, thus explaining the smooth flow of creative juice (see,craps!). 
This might be my last post for this month (might be) as I have pre-finals next week and finals' approaching in a week. 

Thank you =)

Talking about love and relationships

Assalamualaikum and hello to all :)

Okay, minggu ni dan minggu depan memang sangat busy dengan kuiz memanjang, assignments/presentations, hospital visit, AGD segala bagai. But as my motto goes 'Jangan gelabah, relax sudah,'. Yeah, walaupun busy, syukur dikurniakan ketenangan oleh yang Maha Esa. Harap-harap ketenangan ni akan berkekalan, insya-Allah.

Erm, what else? This will be a really random post.
Oh yes, I think I have started to love Pharmacy. Meaning, I have started to love all the subjects I'm learning. I LOVE PHARMACOLOGY, especially! Kalau nak buat Masters or Ph.D pun, nak amik Pharmacology! Insya-Allah. Amin.


Tadi Dr.Qamar ada cakap sesuatu yang memorable.
'To the sisters, please love your brothers as if they were your own brothers'. and vice versa.


Faham tak? Maksudnya, Dr. Qamar tak menggalakkan students batch kita orang ni ada perhubungan lebih daripada kawan.


Lagi satu, dia cakap 

'Until I get my Ph.D, I never allowed a single girl to enter my life. When I've attained my Ph.D, and worked for 4 years, then only I allowed a woman to enter my life. I have lots of money in my bank account, and I spent about RM 100,000 for my wedding, giving my wife RM 50,000 jewellery,'

Nampak macam berlagak tapi takde pun sebenarnya. Dr. Q nak bagi mesej yang belajar la betul-betul dulu, baru fikir pasal relationship.

'Right now your future is not secured. And if you get involved in these things, you will suffer,'

This is really great. Membangkitkan semangat untuk belajar. Dan sambung belajar. Masters, Ph.D. Insya-Allah, selagi masih dikurniakan akal fikiran dan tubuh badan yang sihat, saya akan terus belajar sampai Ph.D.
Yelah, walaupun sekarang ni first year pun belum habis lagi. Tapi tak salah nak merancang masa depan, kan?

Oklah, sebut pasal love and relationships ni,  saya  ni single but NOT available (LOL), tidak pernah menjalinkan hubungan dengan mana-mana lelaki langsung (tak pernah ada special boyfriend, tak pernah couple, etc) atas beberapa sebab.

1. Sejak Darjah Satu sampai Tingkatan 5, saya bersekolah di sekolah perempuan (Convent School).

2. Parents saya memang dah bagi warning tak payahla nak ada boyfriend-boyfriend ni. 

3. Saya tak berminat. LOL. 

Yang hantar mesej 'Boleh berkenalan?', hantar surat cinta, mintak nombor telefon tu semua memang ada laa..Tapi again,  tak berminat. I will never toy with any guy's feelings. Kalau tak berminat, cakap terus dengan ayat-ayat yang baik, tak payah nak gedik-gedik jinak-jinak merpati pulak.  


Contohnya dulu tiba-tiba dapat mesej:

Stranger: Hai, boleh berkenalan?

Sarah: Siapa ni?

Stranger :(apa entah nama dia, kawan kepada classmate kat Convent dulu, dpt no phone kat school mag)

Sarah: Oh, maaflah.Mak saya tak bagi saya ada boyfriend-boyfriend ni. Lagipun saya tengah belajar. Sori ok?

Stranger: Takpela, orang dah tak sudi kan, nak buat macam mana. (LOL)


Takde kerja ke apa tiba-tiba nak jalinkan hubungan dengan strangers. Okay, back to the point.


Tapi bila masuk universiti ni, mak saya tanya

Mak: Dah ada calon ke? (dia gurau je sebenarnya)

Saya: Hmm, takde. Haha.

Mak: Senior?

Saya: Hah? Senior pharmacy?. HAHAHAHA (gelak sarcastic)

Abah: Biarlah, baru first year (yeah!)

Lepas tu mak saya cakap 'Habiskan degree dulu, lepas tu baru fikir pasal tu semua,'
Saya pulak fikir 'Ambik Ph.D (amboih) dulu, baru fikir pasal semua tu,'

Tapi agak susah, sebab saya seorang perempuan. Perempuan ni semakin tua, semakin jatuh saham (ye ke?) LOL. Takpela, itu hanya perancangan saya(sebab setakat ni saya tak ada calon, haha), tak taulah Allah yang Maha Mengetahui ada perancangan yang lebih baik.

Bila tengok balik, lagi bagus kalau bila dah kerja baru fikir ni semua. For example, lecturer Physics saya kat CFS dulu, Bro Wan Syahrum pun berkahwin dengan Miss Linda (skrg ni Madam, haha) waktu time kerja. Meaning, waktu kerja baru diorang jumpa.Kiranya, baguslah. Sebab bila kita dah kerja, kita dah matang, kita dah ada perancangan masa depan. 

Jadi kalau boleh waktu tengah belajar ni saya nak elakkan perasaan yang macam tu dan fokus kepada akademik dan karier masa depan. Lagipun saya anak sulung. Adik ada empat orang. Saya kena tolong ibu bapa saya support adik-adik saya dulu. Family is my first priority!  

Ada seorang kawan rapat saya tanya 'Macam mana nak hilangkan perasaan suka kat seseorang (crush la, kiranya) dan kadang-kadang dia rasa macam dia perlukan seorang boyfriend dan dia terfikir ada tak lelaki untuk dia'. Ni orang yg tanya eh, bukan saya reka soalan sendiri.


Ni pandangan saya.

Saya sangat percaya kepada Allah. Saya mempercayai bahawa Allah telah 'reserve' someone for me. The best one for me. My soulmate, my best friend. Tapi kita dua orang belum ditakdirkan untuk berjumpa lagi sebab masih banyak kekurangan dalam diri kami berdua.Masanya belum tiba.

Saya ada beberapa kriteria untuk my future spouse. And I'm sure that 'future spouse' has his own criteria too. But we both realized that in order to meet someone with that criteria, we have to fulfill the criteria ourselves first!

Jadi, kami berdua sedang dalam proses penghijrahan ke arah yang lebih baik dari segi perbuatan, penampilan yang lagi Islamik (haha), menambahkan keimanan dan sebagainya. Dan apabila Allah s.w.t telah merasakan kami berdua telah menepati kriteria yang ditetapkan oleh-Nya, maka dia akan menemukan kami berdua.

And so I believe, he's somewhere out there. I believe in Allah. There's no reason on why I should fret over 'which guy will I end up with' or 'will there be a guy who actually likes me?' Nope. Just have faith in Allah. And try your best to live up to your 'future spouse's' criteria.

Contohnya, nak husband yang pandai lead solat semua tu, kita pun kenalah tahu jugak (walaupun perempuan). 

Ingatlah, 'Perempuan yang baik adalah untuk lelaki yang baik.'

Tapi sekarang ni, saya berdoa

'Ya Allah, sebelum saya dibukakan pintu hati untuk menyayangi seseorang , berilah peluang kepada saya untuk mencintai-Mu (to fall deeply in love with you) dan Rasul-Mu dahulu,'

Ya, saya nak merebut cinta Allah dulu.

Amin ya-Rabbal-Alamin.


P.S. Bila baca balik, terfikir 'Eh, kenapa post ni jiwang sangat?' HAHAHAHAHA. This is soo not me.

I am a History Buff

Assalamualaikum and hello to all :)

I’m always attracted to something old, something dusty, hidden in an old cupboard that is also filled with dozens of old-fashioned porcelain plates for example, something that was produced and made many years ago, before the year I was born, something that no longer exists in this present moment.

And so, I tend to be drawn towards everything old, vintage, antique. Old diaries, old black and white pictures with adorned with patterned borders, grim looking yet magnificently constructed old edifices.

I love visiting historical sites, historical places. Malacca and Penang top my list in ‘The list of favorite states in Malaysia’.

I love the subject ‘History’. It’s the only academic subject that I need not to force myself to read and comprehend it, as opposed to other subjects about terrestrial bodies (humans, the anatomy and physiology). I would gladly read any recommended books about the History of Malaysia (Malaya), History of Asia, History of the World.

I love visiting museums too. Preferably the ones in a pre-war colonial mansions, erected during the British and Dutch era. It fascinates me to learn and know about what happened in the past. To see one day in a life of a British official in Malaya. To go to the times of the Egyptian Civilization, Mesopotamian, the 12 China Dynasties.

The History Channel is my most favourite Astro channel. The next ones would be HBO, Star Movies, Cinemax (LOL. I’m a Movie Buff too :P). I love watching documentaries about wars and stuff. There is one particular documentary about Rare War Films (in colours!).

I’m exceptionally curious about what really happened, how my ancestors (and the other old people) live during the times and tides of wars and post independence, what they did. Their sources of entertainment, the foods they consumed, the clothes they wore, basically everything!

And thus, my never-would-be-fulfilled, no doubt, an impossible dream is to go back to the past and witness and experience everything that happens. Not as one of them, but as a spectator, quite akin to watching a real life drama, in a real life world, a 3D version. Actually being there, to look back at the old buildings, the glorious era of the Malaccan empire, the Ottoman empire, to meet(as a spectator) Rasulullah s.a.w and his companions, the Hijrah from Makkah to Madinah, the wars between them and the infidels, the World War 1 and World War 2, to actually look what happened to the countries before wars and after the wars, to be there at Stadium Merdeka, witnessing the Declaration of Merdeka by Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra al-Haj, to actually witness the horrible massacres committed by the Japanese during their occupations in Malaya. To join Hang Tuah and Tun Mamat in their expedition to meet Puteri Gunung Ledang, asking for her hands of marriage to Sultan Mansor Shah. To visit P.Ramlee’s sets in Studio Jalan Ampas. To chronicle the developments of Malaysia and Singapore from my own point of view, just like a novel/diary entry (rather than reading them somewhere, written by some boring old scholars). There are too many things that I wanted to do. I wanted to go to the past to appreciate what I have in the present, to be wary of the future.

Of course, it is an impossible thing. One impossible thing. Right now, I would just satisfy my curiosity by

 Select a subject of interest. For instance, the History of Malacca
Reading books about the old time Malacca
Looking at pictures of old Malacca
Visiting the historical sites in Malacca and to compare and contrast between old and modern Malacca.
 Imagining and picturing what happened in the past, when visiting the historical sites. IMAGINATION is important!

It does not mean that I’m an outdated person, always thinking about the past. I would rather regard myself as a history buff, passionately curious about what happened to the world and how that leads to me, living here in the present. I mean, without any intervention in the past, I would, say, be born to an extremely poor and deprived Malay family living in MALAYA, who only got its independence from the JAPAN in the year 2000 ( in case the bombings of Pearl Harbor, Hiroshima and Nagasaki never occurred)Hey, anything can happen, right? And I wanted to find the truth! Yes, somebody said that History is a mere fiction, retellings of events passed from generation to generations, with some added artificial ‘facts’ along the way.

I wanted to do a proper research, writing thesis and publishing history books that are easily understood and comprehended by young modern generations. That could touch their hearts to the core. To instill a sense of patriotism and appreciation towards the past leaders and to love our country.

But before that, I must show my thanks and appreciation to these historical figures:

Prophet Muhammad s.a.w, Dato’ Onn Jaafar, Tunku Abdul Rahman, Sultan Mansor Shah, Parameswara, Hang Tuah and others. Without them. Maybe, I wouldn’t be a Muslim, wouldn’t be Malay, and wouldn’t be living in a comfortable life in the present. History shaped the way we are now. And not to forget, thank you to the current Malaysian leaders for managing to ‘maintain’ our independence. Though we might have some disagreements here and there ( in cases related to deconstruction of old historical buildings such as Pudu Prison,Bukit Bintang Girls School to make places for stupid shopping complexes and all but hey, thanks! But of course, my ultimate thanks go to Allah the All-knowing and most Merciful.The Greatest creator of all events that occur ever since the universe is created till the End of the world (and post-end of the world).Without Him, I would never become the way I am right now.

In what way shall I convey my thanks? By studying sincerely, knowledge-oriented-ly to become a respectable Malay Muslim. Oi, be sincere!

With that, thank youuu…

Sarah Sarcastic dan Monyet

Assalamualaikum and hello to all :)

Alkisah....
Pada pukul 8.30 pagi macam tu, saya sedang berehat-rehat di kerusi sambil membaca buku. Dekat bilik waktu tu saya seorang aje. Kelas start pukul 9 pagi tapi selalunya pukul 8.40 macam tu baru bergerak berjalan ke Kulliyyah of Pharmacy.

Tiba-tiba, kedengaran bunyi 'seseorang' sedang memunggah sesuatu.
Hatiku berdetik (cewwah) 'Siapakah itu?' Ingatkan Kak Aliya dan Kak Nana dah pergi kelas. Zimah pulak belum balik sebab tiket takde.


Jangkaan pertama adalah 'Angin kot' LOL. Boleh pulak. Tapi memang sebenarnya dah tahu ada monyet tapi saje je menidakkan kebenaran itu.
Akan tetapi bunyi itu semakin kuat. Dan kedengaran bunyi buku-buku jatuh ke lantai. 


Saya pun bangun, ingin menjenguk. Dan tiba-tiba,


Seekor makhluk berbulu perang duduk bertenggek atas rak buku tu. Jarak antara monyet itu dan saya tak sampai satu meter pun. Memang sangat dekatlah.


Maka saya pun 'AHHHHHH!!!!!' Oi, apasal monyet ni tak lari?
Monyet tu buat muka selamba, seolah-olah berkata 'Is that all you can do?' Hampeh.


Saya pun jerit lagi 'AHHHHH!!!!' oi, kenapa tak pergi lagi. Try lagi la 'AHHHHHH!!!!!!!'. Monyet tu tak berganjak pun. Kurang asam punya monyet. Dahlah menghilangkan 'kemachoan' diri ini sebab menjerit. Niat menjerit adalah untuk menghalau monyet tu tapi tak berkesan pulak. Tak cukup decibel.


Last-last, dah fed-up menjerit. Saya pun cakap 'SHUUH!!! SHUHH!!!' dan mengetuk-ngetuk pintu almari sambil 'memarahi' monyet itu 'Ish, pergilah monyet!' Maka monyet tu pun turun dari rak buku tu. Saya pun berlari ke bilik sebelah.


'Fatin, sini kejap,' saya memanggil jiran dengan tenang.
'Ada monyet kat bilik kita kat compartment Kak Aliya. Boleh tak halaukan?' LOL.


Maka Fatin pun berkata 'Oh, Sarah ke yang jerit-jerit tadi?' Alamak, boleh dengar ke?Terasa diri ini gedik pulak.


Fatin masuk ke bilik dan mencapai batang penyapu. Okay, monyet dah takde. Dia pun tutup tingkap bilik Kak Aliya.

Dan saya nampak tiga ekor monyet bertenggek di pagar dawai belakang hutan.Dan monyet yang masuk bilik kak Aliya tu pun lari terkedek-kedek pergi 'join' kawan-kawan dia yang tiga ekor tu. Maka mereka berempat masuk ke hutan bersama-sama and they live happily ever after.


THE END.

Ketika Sarah menjerit...

Di bathroom...

'Eh, siapa yang menjerit tu? Dengar macam suara Sarah je,' Syau dan Naza berfikir.

the so-called effective methods of handling quizzes and exams

Assalamualaikum and hello to all.:)

I've discovered the effective methods of studying and handling quizzes/exams.

Number one rule: Jangan gelabah. Seriously. So what kalau belum habis study  (atau dah baca tapi tak faham dengan sebetul-betulnya) and esok ada quiz? Relax sudah. Mengikut pengalaman saya, bila saya dalam keadaan relax, otak saya dapat 'menyerap' apa-apa fakta pun dengan lebih senang. And waktu tengah belajar untuk quiz tu, cakap kat diri sendiri 'Alah, relaxla. Sempat lagi nak baca semua,'. Tapi ni cuma applicable bagi quiz yang tak masuk banyak topik. HOHO.


Number two: Tidur. Saya tak pernah stay up sampai pukul 2, 3 pagi untuk study bila ada quiz pada keesokan harinya. Bila esok tu quiz, lagi awal saya tidur berbanding hari-hari biasa. Lepas solat Isyak terus tidur. Bila bangun pagi, whoaa, fresh! Ataupun tidur awal, mindset untuk bangun pukul 4.30 pagi, lagi bagus daripada stay up.


Number three: Banyakkan berdoa. Lepas solat tu doa la 'Ya Allah, please bagi saya dapat jawab quiz Pharmacology hari Khamis ni, huhuhuhu'. Dan bacala ma'thurat/al-Quran lepas solat Subuh tu, lepas tu doa. Insya-Allah.


Number four: Bila dapat soalan, relax je. Treat quiz tu macam soalan saja-saja je lecturer nak bagi. 


Number five: Kalau dah terasa macam soalan quiz susah ataupun ada tertinggal sesuatu, again, cool je. Relax. So what? You've tried your best, walaupun study last minute (at least study la jugak berbanding orang yang tak study langsung, LOL). 


Number six: Silalah belajar awal-awal sebelum final exam tiba (peringatan untuk diri sendiri).

Secara tuntasnya, perkara yang paling penting adalah jangan gelabah. Quiz je kot, exam je, buat apa nak lebih-lebih dramatik?  



P.S Esok nak pergi Rehlah, hoho. So, tak jadi MC untuk Biomedical Symposium tu. Rehlah lagi best la.

of Nasi Beriyani, Fictions and Biochem Quiz

(I wrote this last night but couldn't post it due to the abysmal internet connection). 

Assalamualaikum and hello to all. :)

 Dilemma number 1
Nasi Beriyani + Fasting
Lapar. Hungry. Nasi Beriyani Kak Aliya beli ada depan mata. Tapi tak boleh makan. Why?
Reason no 1: Gotta fast for 10 hours (starting from 10 pm) for tomorrow's experiment- Oral Glucose Test- Fasting/Starvation state vs Well-Fed/Satiation state 
Reason no 2: I have Biochem quiz tomorrow and I need to stay up! Stay up's not good, I know. But I have no choice! If I eat, then will have the postprandial effect. I will get sleepy and sleepy, glucose amount is high. Then I cannot study. I'm not feeling sleepy at all right now. So it's the right time to study! But I'm feeling hungry. Erkk...

Guilt: Takde siapa nak Nasi Beriyani yang Brand New tak disentuh ini. I'm the only (girl) person I know who would consume heavy food at the wee hours of the morning. (as late as 1 am).Yang lain? DIET... *rolled eyes*. Hahaha.

Dilemma no 2:
Orhan Pahmuk's My Name is Red and Tash Aw's The Harmony Silk Factory are staring at me, seducing me, enticing me to pick them out from the bookshelf. To devour every page, to savour every words and sentences, to entice me away from my Biochemistry notes. I was almost trapped but reality slaps me hard on the face. Oi, esok quiz oi!
And so, I lightly touched 'My Name is Red', coaxing 'him', caressing 'him'. Is there anyone is the world that have lust over books other than moi?  It's okay, I will read you tomorrow. The exact words I said to 'him'.
Eh, suddenly Amy Tan's The Bonesetter's Daughter called upon me 'Sarah, read me again! Read me again!' Alamak, macam mana ni?

And so I plugged my ears with earphones, listening to Yiruma's The River Flows in You. And started rereading Carbohydrate Metabolism. Glycolysis. Gluconeogenesis. Citric Acid Cycle. Glycogenesis, Glycogenolysis, HMS Pathway, Cori Cycle, Alanine Cycle. Bicycle. 


Done. Next, Protein Metabolism. Perghhh... Cholestrol Metabolism, Lipid Metabolism. 


Guilt: I finished reading Jane Green's Swapping Lives instead of Biochem.

FIVE MONTHS HOLIDAY!!! CEPATLAA!!! 

Edit: Biochem quiz dah amik tadi. HOHO. 

Insert

:) :D xD :') :'( :( :(( :)) 8-) ;)


Hoho, takde Facebook 'Like' Button.
