Midnight post...

Malizah, one of my best pals just texted me this afternoon, informing me about her final exam results- AWESOME GPA and CGPA. This, makes her qualified to go to INDIA to pursue her studies in Medicine.

Now, you're going to leave me alone in Malaysia. After SEVEN years of friendship. Get me a handkerchief, please. I'm gonna blow my nose. Huhuhuhu.
Dramatic much?

Oh, I'm quite jealous of you! In a good way, of course. Haha. But I'm really proud and happy for you. :) You inspired me.

Catherine's gonna go to New Zealand. Pharmacy.
Maddy's gonna go to Poland. Medicine.
Ranja's gonna go to India. Dentistry.

Who else eh?
Michelle in IMU now. Medic.
Parvathee's gonna go to USA. Biotechnology.
Kaminee's in Australia now. Accountancy.
Michelle Gan Nollie's in Taylor's College. AUS-MAT. Accountancy. Gonna fly to Aussie.
Khye Lyn's in AUSSIE too! Taking statistics or something like that. Chatted with her last week. So lucky la you!
Maalini's in KYUEM. Gonna go to countries like U.K or Ireland, I guess. Medicine.
The rest are in Malaysia, I guess.

What about me? In CFS, IIUM. MALAYSIA. STRUGGLING WITH MATH. FAILED TO RECALL WHAT SHE HAD LEARNED IN BIOLOGY CLASS. HAD MISTAKEN CARBOXYLIC ACID AND KETONE AS THE PRODUCT OF MILD OXIDATION BETWEEN ALKENE AND POTASSIUM MANGANATE (VII) WHEN AS A MATTER OF FACT, IT'S DIOL!
DIOL! DIOL! DIOL! This is to differentiate between Alkene and Alkane, if you don't understand a bit what am I babbling right now.

I'm a disgrace to the Malay society. HUHUHU.

And yeah, a so-called JPA Scholarship recipient who failed to see any trace of JPA allowance occupying her bank account. >__<
A girl with a thick coke bottled glasses(not really la, the glasses I'm wearing now is stylo milo) and with a cute front teeth. I mean it in a sarcastic way.

My life is pathetic, is it not?
But I love it somehow. T_____T
The cute front teeth and all. :)

It's OFFICIAL! Well, sort of..:P

I told Husna all about the 'competing with the first year students' thing.
She said it is not true. I was like " REALLY?"
" YES!" she insisted on her answer.
Hoho, PHEW. How did you know?

" I asked two juniors already. They'll have a long 6 months break," :)

Haha, COOL! :)
So, what's more reliable than asking from the juniors itself?

THE END.

Headache @____@

Biology 3: DNA replication. Conservative? Semiconservative? DNA helices? Cut off the hydrogen bond? DNA polymerase? Assignment? On that whatever scientific thingy?Hohohohohoho...Pening-pening! I was a bit dizzy with the explanations given by Madam just now. Too many DNAs.

Chemistry 2: Addition reaction. Hydrogenation. Halogenation. Hydrohalogenation. Whatever stuffs. All of them had totally being mixed up! Have to read them tonight coz Mdm will ask some questions tomorrow. Huhuhuhuhu...

Since when do Biology and Chemistry- which are both my favourite subjects have suddenly become a bit...complicated?

Maths 2: Ermm, Alhamdulillah. So far, OKla...
Now when will our mid semester exams be? Syidah will have hers before the mid break. Before mid break? CANNOT! TIDAK! DON'T WANT! I have lots of things to be covered, revised and studied! And to think again, another THREE weeks to go before the mid break! How time really flies!
Okla,, that's all.

>_____<

Thanks to those who tagged me... LOL
But sorry for that too coz..hehe.. busy solving mysteries...
I'll do all of them this weekend! :D
Lots of works to do.
I first planned to watch 'Night at the Museum 2' with Soul, At and Syidah. But then, it looks like the plan's been cancelled.
And went to the Jumble Sale booth. Looked at some books. Nice books. Cheap.But even if I bought one, I don't know when will I be able to read it.
One brother at the booth was so eager to tell me about the movie show. He even raised his eyebrows(kind of) when he mentioned ' Night of the Museum 2'. It's like, he was telling that "It's an entertaining movie." And yes, he even mentioned " Satu ringgit aje,"
I was looking and flipping the books that I merely nodded and gave a plastic smile, muttering 'Oh yeah?' as if I couldn't care less. So, I'm feeling a bit guilty there.
But, 'Night at the Museum 2'. I already have the DVD at home(haven't watched it though) so, it would be quite a waste, right? Satu ringgit pun..
And plus, there will be important classes like Biology and Chemistry tomorrow! Have to read and revise. Huhu.

But to make up for that, MAYBE I'll buy one ticket for the Thursday night's movie. It's called 'Maryam al-Muqaddasah' a.k.a The Holy Mary.
MAYBE I'll watch it alone coz it seems like none of my friends shows any interest in it. I love this kind of movie. It broadens your horizons. And Hollywood movies are so overrated.
OK, just MAYBE. I plan, but Allah decides, :)
That's all. Salam. :)

Trigonometry oh Trigonometry

I LOVE Trigonometry. Seriously. It may seems weird to those who despise trigonometry. But yeah, I enjoyed doing the questions and exercises. It's just a matter of dealing with the angles and sides of a TRIANGLE. Ok, fine. TRIANGLES.

But then, my interest towards trigonometry suddenly wavers when I encountered a topic that I faced difficulty with since secondary school. Even my Add Maths tutor, Mr. Chong admitted that it is quite difficult. What's that topic again?
PROVING IDENTITIES!
Yes, what's there to be proved about? It's math, come on! Not a mystery or crime cases, where we have to prove who did this and that? Hohohoho.

Oh, never mind.. I'll try my best! I WILL try to prove these 'mysteries'. I will prove it, that you! You are the one who did that. You're disguising as complex characters that blind us all into thinking that how difficult it is to solve this case when in reality, you are just the simple character that no one has ever suspected of! You're in fact, a SINE hidden beneath the CO SECANT'S cloak. Or you might be COS, the culprit who wears the SECANT'S SMILE! Pandai ye.. Disguising as someone else.. I will prove your real identity by making the LHS equals to the RHS and vice versa. Yes, that proves it! Sarah Sarcastic the Math Sleuth will solve this case anyway! And she shall not sleep until she can figure out how on earth did something simple can be transformed into something complex! And she will solve this case, by transforming complexity back into simplicity. Mind me, I dunno what am I talking about. It's 12. 07 am and I'm still struggling with Math.

I don't have enough sleep. Yeah, seriously. I slept late last night, studying for Maths quiz. And I have class from 8 am to 1 pm. And from 3 pm to 6 pm. Haih! Haha, not complaining, hehe. Nabi Muhammad tak suka orang yang mengeluh. Huhuhu.

Yeah, this is the time to apply the 'skills' learnt from Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, Ellery Queen, Shinichi Kudo/ Conan Edogawa, Hajime Kindaichi and yeah.... Mdm Nurafizah. Hohohoho...
And also, to learn about the suspects' histories by referring to Precalculus 5th Edition. :P

Rumours again..

Well, it is indeed, a good news for us the second year students...
But maybe a bad news for the first year students, or maybe could be regarded as good news to some of them.
Do you understand? :P
Okla. Heard rumours. Dunno whether it's true or not. But hopefully, it's true. We're not going to compete with the 1st year students for placings in main camp after all! Hurray! This piece of news might be a bit stale. But dun care, I'm gonna post it.

What about the first year students? Oh.. It seems like the UIA administrators are going to extend their holidays up to ONE YEAR!
Whoaaa.. one bloody year! There are pros and cons to it. Pros. Whoaa.. One year holiday! Even better than post-SPM holidays! Can do many things. Can travel, can watch lots of Japanese Dramas, can open business, can do lots of things laa..
But one of the cons is... One year? You gotta be kidding! Wasting our time! We might as well go to other universities!
MY dearest younger brothers and sisters.. OK what. One year of holiday. No need to go to other universities. UIA best what... ISLAMIC university! INTERNATIONAL some more! It's a public privately funded university. Be proud that you are in a some sort of PRIVATE university. Funded by EIGHT OIC countries. There are even twinning programmes with those countries. Some of UIA students even pursued their postgraduate studies in OXFORD UNIVERSITY and HARVARD LAW SCHOOL!
UIA is a quite rich/wealthy university. My mum's friend said that when you are in the third year of your degree, the Arab Saudi government will fund your expenses to go for Umrah in Makkah! I mean, not FULLY FUNDED, of course. You have to pay like, RM 200-RM500. But, OK what....
And after you garduated, you can work in other RICH Middle East countries like Dubai, Saudi Arabia, etc.
Best kan, duduk UIA? :D Yang tak bestnya pakcik and makcik guard aje.. Hehehe..

Okla, I rest my case. I have to attend the replacement class for FIM this afternoon! HUHUHUHUHUHUHU...
Well yeah. Hopefully the rumour's true.

Love it ~~

Empty Decorations

I wake in the dark
With showers of life
Moments of emptiness around
Floating away
No other hope
Reality brings me

Into the ground
What can I do
What can I say
I need a place to hide away
Just for a while, just for a smile
Just for a life I used to know

The perfect song were filled with
Words of love and not with anger
What if they go
What if they leave me far behind

'Cause I don't wanna be alone... (uh oh)
Living life for on my own (uh oh)
I don't want to live my life in isolation
Filled with empty decorations
'Cause I want to be with people that I know

Who would do the things I do (uh oh)
Making all my dreams come true (uh oh)
I don't recognize the shadows at my door
Though I've seen them all before
Because the only thing I really want...
Is to be with you...

Indecisive. Empty Decorations

Best things about Malaysia

Okay. I do adore Japanese songs, dramas, mangas, animes, hot Japanese actors and such.
Malaysia might be a third world country and that it is a bit left out in technology and the mentalities of its citizens as compared to Japan and other first world countries.
Various examples include:
1. Malaysians love to litter though there's a tong sampah besar gedabak in front of their eyes.
2. Social issues/ problems/ decadence among its youth.
3. Stupid political leaders and stupid dirty filthy Malaysian political scenarios. Stupid irrelevant political parties avid supporters.
4. We too, are being far left out in Sports. Okay. Football, to be exact. Now where's the era of Mokhtar Dahari? Can't someone like him be resurrected back? And that the government had spent millions to date to create such 'professional' football players.
5. You want more examples? Try being a Malaysian.


OKAYYYYY>>>> The best things about Malaysia are:
1. The multi-racial citizens. Sure, there might be some big racism issues here. But I seriously think that the Malays would still be ( what it is in Englis)- berada di takuk lama if it wasn't for those other races. Takuk lama? In terms of competency, mentality and stuffs. Just because they are non muslims doesn't mean that they are bad people who influenced the Muslims towards the 'unislamic' cultures, etc. Just look around you. Majority of people who committed the crimes are the so-called Islam youths. We become more competent when we see the Chinese becomes more successful.

2. Ok. True Malaysian dramas. I'm not talking about those Bohsia movie, Remp-it, such and such. I'm talking about Yasmin Ahmad films. Popiah pictures. Red Films pictures. I would recommend them to anyone who would like to get a grasp on how Malaysia and Malaysians are all about. Malaysia is not all about Malay people becoming Mat Rempits and Bohsia. Nor is it about unrequited love,fights over inheritance. Heck, you don't need to be in Malaysia to experience that. I love dramas and movies about UNITY. And that includes the award winning Petronas advertisements.

3. Its rich history and cultures. Malacca is my favourite state in Malaysia. To see that Malaysia is sculpted from the rich history of the glorious Malacca empire, and that the chronologies of events that followed had moulded Malaysia to what it has become now. About the unity among Malay people. I really admire the Malay leaders at that time.They are true, selfless leaders. One of the reasons that make me proud to be a Malay and a Malaysian. Now? AHHH, NO WAY! Is it so hard to unite among MALAYS? Do we have that much of differences? What? Political views? Get a grip, Malaysian political leaders! You guys make me ashamed to call myself a Malay and a Malaysian!

4. The rainforest. I love the lush and green tropical rainforests in Malaysia. Malaysia is a really beautiful country. Though we do not experience the four seasons in a year, I still love the hot and humid climate. I love the beautiful islands in Malaysia. Hawaii is nothing compared to those islands. I love the sunny beaches. Though the weather is getting hot day by day.Blame Malaysians for that. Blame me too. I should have practised recycling.

5. The Lebuh Raya Utara Selatan. Malaysia's best development. Enough said.
P.S. I have my own opinions and see things in different perspective. Dun blame me if my opinions aren't the same as yours! :)

6. The foods. I love Malaysian foods. The Asam Pedas, tempoyak, traditional cakes. Roti canai, tose, nasi lemak, laksa. I love them all. Malaysian foods are heaven!

And... I can't afford to list more. I love Malaysia. And I am proud to be a Malaysian. :D

JPA Briefing

Briefing yang entah apa-apa.
I know that I shouldn't have attended the briefing just now.
Wasted already, ONE HOUR of Math Class.
Well, I quickly went out of the hall and managed to attend the remaining one hour. Maths class is two hours, you see. And I missed the sub chapter ANGLE OF ELEVATION thingy!
Aha, but I managed to answer the questions given a bit faster compared to my friends, who sat in the class from 2 p.m :D

Izzati and I were the first so-called JPA scholars to arrive in class. The others came in 15 minutes later. Hahaha.
Anyway, I don't understand a bit what they were talking about! More priorities were given to the first year students, the JPA scholarships recipients who secured places in local universities. You know what I mean? They got Program Ijazah Dalam Negeri.
We, the 2nd year students got the Program TAMBAHAN Penajaan 9A ke atas.
Anyway, I'm still grateful la.. to get the JPA Scholarship. Though I don't know what's the real purpose of it, haha.
Why? Because those in the Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy programmes are going to get the JPA scholarships anyway when they do their first degree in main campus. They will automatically get it. The scholarship.
Urrmm, why? Coz these three courses are the critical courses in Malaysia la...We will automatically work with the government as soon as we graduated.
I AM grateful, OK!

There are some people in my class who didn't even attend the briefing AT ALL!
Wow, congrats! You guys did the right thing! No point of attending it anyway, hahahaha.
I went out of the hall a bit earlier compared to everyone else. So, did I miss something? :P
Never mind, gonna ask Soul about it later. Hehe.
Soul and Afzan, both of them are only interested about the scholarship money. Yes, where's the money, man? LOL
And it's a bit embarrassing when I stated that I don't understand a single word the JPA people were talking about when Mdm Nurafizah asked me about it. Huhu..
Well, that's all.

Random

I had just organized my Flickr account.
It's surprising to see that the simple, bland, grainy photos I've captured with my modest Olympus Fe-320 could appear rather err.. OK in that page. That's my opinion anyway, sangat perasan.
Must take more photos!
I love to take random photos. But I'm too lazy to upload them to the computer, let alone spending time editing those pictures. MUST NOT BE LAZY!
I don't really like to take pictures of me with my friends/ family. Instead to be the one in front of the camera, I prefer to be the one behind the camera.

It's a simple compact camera really. It's not as fancy as those SLR and DSLR camera, but I freaking love it! In fact, while browsing through some flickr's photo pages, I found one page entitled ' Testing Olympus Fe-320', with wide collection of awesome pictures taken with the same camera I possess.
Seriously, those pictures are AWESOME with a big A!
You would have thought that the photographer used a fancy Canon DSLR camera to capture those masterpieces. He is from Japan, I guess. :)
But wait, surely you would have thought that he might be using some softwares like Adobe Creative Suite and so to edit those photos, right?

This is what I asked him:
Hello. Nice photo you got there. I'm Sarah and I'm from Malaysia.
Mind asking, did you use any software to edit this picture? Or any other pictures taken by Olympus Fe-320?
Did you use Adobe CS or just the editing tools available in the Olympus CD? Thank you.

And this was his reply:
Hi Sarah, thanks for your comment. Well, I don't usually retouch any of my photos except when using them in particular designs. This is as it was taken. It just happened to be a fine day and a beautiful dusk that day. :)

He didn't even edit that particular picture! How AWESOME is that?? (sila kira berapa banyak perkataan 'awesome' ditaip di sini XD)

I found one inspiring quote about photography there.
"Compact cameras with good photographer have better results than reflex cameras with bad photographers"

I simply couldn't agree less. That is SO true! Not that I'm saying I'm a good photographer. Sheesh..I'm an amateur.

So, don't feel bad if you don't have those high and mighty SLR/DSLR camera. Start with the basic first, hoho.
And why spent time to meticulously edit the pictures taken? Raw, unedited pictures possess more originality compared to the modified, edited ones.
So next time, I'll just point the lens towards the subject and just shoot it. I shall not bother to worry whether those pictures will turn out good or what...
Hey, each picture taken has its own value. No matter how ugly or horrendous it seems.
Personally. I think the portarit of 'Monalisa' is rather unappealing. LOL.
Sorry Da Vinci and art lovers. But you get what I mean, right?

Would love to put the picture here but then I would be accused of plagiarism. Anyway, here's the link

Bio Lab Class

My first perception:
What? Bio Lab B? Tak best! Tak best!
Know why? There will be two groups in a lab. In my case. It's Group 4 and Group 6 combining together.
Why don't you like that? Coz I've grown accustomed towards being in a single group in a lab. We had our Bio Lab 1 in Bio Lab A the previous semester. It was more peaceful, the lab is smaller, easy to get around and less noise coming from the brothers.
Sarah is Selfish. I'm aware of that fact, thank you very much.

Anyway, the experiment being conducted just now was fine. Only 2 hours in a week, ok la tu.
Somehow, I miss my dear old friends from Bio Lab 1. Aminah Sano, Farihin, Suyi, Farah, Azri, Isfa...Girls from the first table. Hoho.
And I miss Brother Mahathir and Mdm Haliza the most!
Tiba-tiba sangat rindu short sem. Kelas komputer, Mdm Fuhaina, bio lab, bro Mahathir, Mdm Haliza, budak-budak komputer dengan bio lab. Huhuhuhu
Anyway, lots of things to be done. Bio Lab report, Bio exercises, Chemistry tutorial, Maths assignment, FIM assignment. Whoa..
Ok, that's all. Just a brief update.

Knock! Knock!

Wow, sudah lama tidak menulis blog! Hohoho.
So, what's cookin' for the past few days?
First of all, lemme tell ya bout my core course and FIM groups for this semester.
It's the most AWESOME group I've ever been in!
The combination of fellow friends and acquaintances from the previous 3 semesters' groups.
Yes, Sem 1, Sem 2 and Sem 3 awesome people are joined together!

What bout the lecturers?
We have awesome lecturers too!
Mdm Nurafizah for Maths 2. Oh yes, I LOVE Maths! It's unbelievable, I know. But I feel that it's a bit easier compared to Maths 1. So far, I don't have to crack my head up answering the exercises as compared to Maths 1. So, does that mean I have fully acquired the necessary skills to answer trigonometry questions? Urm well, I dare not to say so. Anyway, I will try my best! :D
And the best part about Mdm Nurafizah is that she explained each single thing in such a short time and yet, the explanations are very detailed. And that it's not that hard to understand. Well, so far, that is. I hope this will continue thorughout the semester!

Mdm Fazlina for Biology 3. We study genetics this semester. And I love Genetics ever since I learned that during Secondary School. It's cool and interesting. Fascinating, on how you could predict so and so, the traits that will be inherited by the future generations, etc.
Mdm Fazlina is quite young. Well, youthful. And she has AWESOME sense of humour! I LOVE BIOLOGY!

Mdm Aina for Chemistry 2. Just like Mdm Fazlina. She is quite young. She has awesome sense of humour too. And that she really explained each facts thoroughly to make sure we get a grasp of what's happening. LOL. It's just that I find Chemistry 2 is a bit difficult compared to Chemistry 1. This is an honest opinion. Organic Chemistry, you know. Mdm said that it is not rare to see a student who earned an A or A- for Chemistry 1 (Inorganic Chemistry) scored as low as D for Organic Chemistry. Gosh, I'm scared. But then, Raja said that Chemistry 2 is easy. And that his CAM is 46! Bloody! Well, I just think of it this way. If he could do it, so can I! :D Insya-Allah.

And Ustazah Sabariah for FIM. She's very strict on the first day of class. Explaining about the class' protocols, on how we the sisters should make the tudung covers the shoulder, chest, DUH... And being punctual, so and so. We were a bit terrified and slightly annoyed with her at first. But in the second lesson, we finally figured out that she is not that bad. She might be a bit strict. But I love the way she conduct the lessons in class. By telling the sirahs of the prophets, etc. And sometimes it even give me a sense of realisation on how small and extremely powerless am I compared to the Mighty Allah.
And then there's the assignment of which we have to hand over on the fourth week! No!

Other stuffs? Oh yeah. Last Friday, my family came to KL. They fetched me and off we went to Malacca and stayed there for 3 days and two nights. It's for the purpose of attending a relative's wedding actually. But we got around the city of Malacca, visiting the Stadhuys, reminiscing the past, glorious history of Malacca. We are a bunch of history freaks, LOL.
Well, it was really nice. We planned to get on the cruise along Malacca river but unfortunately, I got sick on the second day and had no mood to go anywhere except staying in the hotel room, accompanied by boxes of tissues and me, sneezing and sneezing for every single second.

I swallowed lots of paracetamols and got better on the next day. But on Tuesday, I met the doctor in UIA clinic anyway. To get proper medication. Hohoho.

And thanks Ummu, Su'aidah and Kinah for remembering me as 'Matsujun's number one lover fan!' by getting me a Matsujun keychain(well, sort of). Hehe. Though it might be simple thing for you guys but thank you, I really appreciate it. :D

And as for personal matters, haha. No need to reveal them here. LOL.

Husna lent me a 'Hana Kimi Taiwanese version' DVD. Just finished episode 1. The plot is a bit draggy and the storyline is a bit bland with less humour as compared to the Japanese version.
I've watched the final episode before in 8TV way back then. What could I say? I might contemplate on deciding whether to watch the remaining series or not. Well, see first. That is, if I got really bored with Biology, Maths and Chemistry. And FIM. Hoho.
I didn't even manage to finish the remaining episodes of 'Zettai Kareshi'. Guess why? Because it's boring. Hana Kimi Taiwan is 2 times more boring than Zettai Kareshi. Seriously.
EDIT: Hana Kimi Taiwan is AWESOME! Zettai Kareshi is 2 times more boring than Hana Kimi Taiwan! Hahaha..LOL

Husna is such a pal! She is so hyperactive! She came to my room to watch 'Hana Yori Dango' on my laptop at 8 and left the room at 3 in the morning. And yet, she seemed energetic as ever in the morning classes that start at 8. She is really funny and yet, extremely smart.. She's taking Medic, what.. And she's really kind that she offered herself to accompany me to the clinic last Tuesday. Though she might be a bit sarcastic at some times (LOL) she could be rather absent minded too. In a good way, I mean. Hahahaha...

And just for the purpose of getting THREE electrical items stickers for free, Fizah had offered herself to become the gymkeeper of ZC Mini Gymnasium! LOL. I heard that her mum was quite angry with that, maybe worrying whether it will affect her studies of what. But, hahaha. It's quite funny, really.

Some Convent juniors came to my room to ask about my advices, my opinions about so and so. I am more than delighted to help them but they can be a bit annoying at times. Like, how am I supposed to know about the whole new system that has been introduced in UIA! I couldn't care less! This system don't even have my stamp of approval! Well, everyone's stamps of approval! The second year students', that is.
And there's one statement that made me a bit mad. She asked
" UIA ni memang buruk ker?"
I was like, WHADDAHECK! It's not that ugly or severely dilapidated or whatever. It's just OLD. Don't come here if you want to criticise everything about it.

Well, that's all, I guess.

My first heartbreak.... a.k.a the BIGGEST JOKE EVER

It's funny. You finally realised that the person is important to you only when you lost him to someone.. LOL.
The same case goes with me. While waiting for the Bio Class to start, I, Husna, Fizah, Syau, Alia and others were sitting in the unoccupied class next door.
And that was when Husna revealed the most shocking, heartbreaking news ever!
" I read in Kosmo! that the Hero of Hana Yori Dango a.k.a Matsumoto Jun is married!"
I was flabbergasted. " Serious? WHAT THE HECK????!!!!"
Maybe I was paying too much attention to Yamapi and had almost forgotten about my first love, Matsumoto Jun. And he got married.

Husna replied " Yes, it's true! He's married to a singer. The singer has a rare disease. He feels responsible and thus married her,"

Several thoughts had accumulated in my mind.
1. I thought that JE Boys aren't suppposed to get themselves girlfriends/ lovers and GET MARRIED!
2. I don't care whether he's married or not. BUT I want him with INOUE MAO!!!
3. How come I didn't know about this before?

Anyway, I felt a bit down, LOL. But WAS ABLE to concentrate in the Biology class. Hahahahaha.
And Husna kept on consoling me. " Sarah, it's OK. There are other guys out there,"
She said again" It's not like they're going to marry you anyway,".
Grrrr....
I just nodded silently and sadly. And she even regretted telling me this. LMAO.

And Husna kept on getting on my nerve by telling about Matsujun and his so-called beloved wife.
" They went for a dinner one night. Then they dissapeared. Went to the apartment,"
I was like " Grrrrrrrr......"
Sabar, sabar!

When the class was over, I decided to ask KINAH, A.K.A Die hard fan of Arashi about the truth.
Like, are you hiding the truth from me all this while? Hahahaha.
And I kept on giggling like a maniac anyway. Giler sarah ni. Kinah kept on pestering me to tell her what's going on.

I don't care anyway. I'm going to find out the truth in the INTERNET!
In the cafe, while waiting for my food to be ready, I finally relented on asking Kinah about it. Though it is INDEED a silly and a foolish matter to be bothered about.
She was like " No, where did you get this information?"
And off she told me about the IMPOSSIBILITIES of JE Boys to have girlfriends/lovers let alone, getting married. And bla-bla-bla. Other facts as well.
Yes! I FEEL A LOT BETTER!

And when I went upstairs to my room. I switched on my laptop and suddenly, one thought popped into my mind.
It's MIZUSHIMA HIRO! I've read somewhere that...
HE'S MARRIED TO SINGER WITH A RARE DISEASE!

And to get things even funnier, people DO AGREE that he looks like MATSUMOTO JUN!

Hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahaha *continues*
Hahahahhahahahaha. I couldn't stop laughing.
And I told this to Kinah. She just laughed and said " Kau ni macam tak senang hidup je tadi,"
Hahaha. And I asked her " What if Sho got married. What will you do?"
She couldn't answer the question! Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
Never mind. This teaches me a lesson not to fancy a guy too much as you will get heartbroken and sad when he did something unacceptable to you like cheating you, being with other girls, etc.
Hey, it's a vital survival skill, right??? :P

Nobuta wo Produce Drama Review

Nobuta wo Produce is the most inspirational, warm, touching Japanese Drama I've ever watched. And it's not an exaggeration if I do claim that it is the most inspirational, warm, heart rending, touching, moving DRAMA I've ever seen. It is the BEST Japanese Drama I've ever set my eyes to to date. It's even BETTER than Hana Yori Dango and Hana Kimi. And this is the first ever drama that I ever shed my tears for.

It is not a love story, nor is it about scandals and conspiracy. Unlike Malay dramas, it isn't about those guys who left their wives, have mistresses, social issues and all those gibberish talks about businesses. Unlike Indonesian dramas too, it is not about irrelevant fairy stuffs, where the stereotyped plots are the ones showing the scandals and arguments over the rights of inheritance, evil stepmothers with heavy makeups and nor does it showcased the phony acts of crying and moaning each time something bad happened.

It is more than that. It is a complete series, compactly packed in just 10 episodes drama. It is a series about friendship, overcoming obstacles, being what you what you want to be and being true to yourself.



Nobuta wo Produce tells about the main protagonist, Shuuji Kiritani (Kamenashi Kazuya) who is a popular guy at school who dates a girl he doesn't even like just to maintain his popularity. He is always the one whom everyone seeks helps from, as he is the one that emphasize on pleasing others, putting others ahead of himself without realising that he is not true to himself.



Another guy, Akira Kusano (Yamapi) is a loony guy who got high over 'bean' milk (soya bean). He is being outcasted in class but he doesn't really care about all those absurd popularity-clamouring stuffs, as long as he is happy himself. He has a very jovial characteristics that can be shown by his weird yet funny laughter. He is the son of a company's president who refused to take over the company later on. Shuuji is constantly irritated with Akira's behaviour.



Then comes Kotani Nobuko (Maki Horikita), an extremely shy, timid girl who has no confidence at all towards herself due to the impact of being rejected by her stepfather when she was young. This in a turn, results to a series of contsant bullying, of which she received and patiently endured since kindergarten until now.Shuuji who can't bear to see Kotani being bullied, made a plan with the unlikely Akira, of which they vowed to spend their youth wisely by doing something that they will be proud of when they grow up. And so, a friendship is slowly rekindling between the three different characters who are unlikely to be friends if not given such circumstances. They made a project ' Nobuta wo Produce'. That is, producing Nobuta (Kotani's nickname) to become the most popular girl at school.



Shuuji who emphasized too much on his popularity, secretly helped his new made friends and pretending that nothing ever happened. He was afraid that his popularity will be diminished if they (the students) were to find out that he was hanging out with the two most unpopular students at school. While they were determined to execute each plans accordingly, there will be someone, someone that is unknown until later on, someone that always destroy every plans that were carried out to make Nobuta popular.Shuuji later realised that he can show his true self instead of pretending to be a Mr. Nice Guy when he was with Akira and Nobuta. He feels that he is most comfortable being with both of them. An unfortunate event occured where Shuuji lost his popularity and is being ostracized in class. No one believes him except for Akira and Nobuta, who will always believe him no matter what.

Akira had developed feelings towards Nobuta but forget all about it later on as he realised that he will not make Nobuta happy. Nobuta on the other hand, secretly shows a liking towards Shuuji.



The main antagonist who destroyed all their plans earlier on is now being discovered. She is Aoi-san, a girl that is also Kotani's first friend. She hated seeing the three of them together and in order to break the three of them apart, she used various despicable methods. But, none of them are able to break apart such strong relationship that is tightly intact. She finally realised her mistake and everything is coming back to normal. It seems like their 'Nobuta project' is slowly becoming successful as Nobuta is slowly gaining popularity.Until, Shuuji discovered that his dad had to be transferred to the other side of Japan, of which he has to follow through. This comes one of the most heart wrenching part. The whole class bid him farewell but he had his eyes only towards Nobuta and Akira who were standing at the back.



" Everything in life is a game. Those who stopped in the middle and couldn't continue are idiots,"



Shuuji started his new life in a totally different environment.



"We can live our lives wherever we are,".



And when he started introducing himself, he saw something surprising. Someone who was standing at the back of the class. Apparently, Akira decided to transfer to the same school the day before, just so he can be with Shuuji, his best friend. And when Shuuji asked what will happen to Nobuta when both of them are not there with her, Akira said that Nobuta told him that she will be fine. She might be crying for the first three days but she will go through it all.



At the same time, Nobuta was with Mariko- Shuuji's popular ex girlfriend. She has forged a new relationship with her and is now able to carve a smile on her face.



Shuuji and Akira were at the seaside when Shuuji looked up at the sky and say " Somewhere

beneath the same sky, Nobuta is there,"



In class, she saw the empty seats left by Shuuji and Akira. She went up to the top floor, the place where the trio spent their time together before, creating plans and agendas in producing her, the new Nobuta. She looked at the sky and say " I can now smile," and she smiled.



Shuuji looked at the sky and said to Akira " Hey, can you see the sky smiling at us?"



" We can live our lives wherever we are,"



This is the most unforgettable drama about friendship that I've ever watched. And I couldn't suppress my happiness when this critically acclaimed drama won many awards.



47th Television Drama Academy Awards Japan



Best Drama: Nobuta wo Produce

Best actor : Kamenashi Kazuya (Shuuji Kiritani)

Best supporting actress: Maki Horikita ( Kotani Nobuko)

Best Director: Iwamoto Hitoshi( Nobuta wo Produce)

Best Scriptwriter: Kizara Izumi (Nobuta wo Produce)

Best Musical Arrangement: Nobuta wo Produce



I would higly recommend the others to watch this drama. This drama is one of the many reasons of why I prefer Japanese dramas over other dramas.

The message is effectively conveyed (at least that is what I thought). You want to prevent bullying, you want to instil confidence in students, you want them to be good people when they graduated from school, this is the way convey the messages. You want to prevent social issues, you don't go and produce movies such as 'Bohsia' or 'Rempit'. ( I do watch Bohsia OKAYYY).

Please produce something that is close to the teenagers' hearts. Something that made them realised that they are missing something important in their lives.



As for me, I want to grow up being 'abnormal'. Hoho, don't get me wrong. Meaning, I do not stick to the status quo and I do not want to forever go on with the flow. So what's the big deal if you can't score 4 flat or even 3.5 above for every exams? They are important, of course, but don't devote yourself too much towards such slavery. This is our youth. Enjoy it. =)



My verdict: 10 out of 5 stars. :P. It IS, the BEST Japanese Drama I've ever watched.

Cerita Hantu Jepun

I have to make a list of what I should watch before going back to CFS. I can't afford to watch more Japanese Dramas there. It's not short semester! Oh man, I miss short sem. :(

Koizora
Hana Yori Dango
Hana Yori Dango 2
Hana Yori Dango Final
Great Teacher Onizuka
Kimi Wa Petto
Maou
Kindaichi Shonen no Jikenbo 3 Not the whole complete series though.
Mei-Chan no Shitsuji
Bambino!
Hana Kimi
Hana Kimi Special
Code Blue
Code Blue Special
Zettai Kareshi( 6 more to go. With special episode some more. Fine, 7! Haish)
Nobuta wo Produce ( 3 more to go)
Accuracy of Death ( Agak bosan. Takeshi Kaneshiro's hotness compensates for it. Belum habis tengok pun... :P)
Death Note ( Belum tengok)
Oh man, my Japanese dramas list is SO PATHETIC! I should watch more! Yosso! Yosso!

What should I say, I started to get involved with this Japanese Dramas things since I got into CFS. So, that explains the pathetic list of Japanese Dramas. :P

I'm thinking of watching these too. But I reckoned that there wouldn't be enough time la. Maybe I'll watch ALL of those dramas available in mysoju (select dramas. Not all of them, LOL) during the 3 months break AFTER two years studying in CFS IIUM.

Kurosagi (Yamapi and Maki! :D )
Kurosagi Movie
Proposal Daisakusen (Yamapi!)
Proposal Daisakusen Special
Atashinchi no Danshi (Maki!)
Innocent Love (Maki!)
Dragon Zakura ( Yamapi!)

Now, Yamapi and Maki Horikita had replaced the Matsujun and Inoue Mao duo! Hahahaha *Yamapi's laughing style in Nobuta*

Yes, others. (Yang tak teringin sangat nak tengok tapi nak tengok jugak. :P)
Anmitsu Hime (Inoue Mao!)
First Kiss (Inoue Mao!)
Gokusen 1 (Matsujun!)
And if possible, Gokusen 2, 3 and the Special. (LOL)
Honey and Clover
Door to Door (Nino!)

There is a 95% possibility that I can't watch 2 of these in UIA coz UIA wireless doesn't permit downloading and watching stuffs from mysoju and youtube (you can watch them actually, but they will take a freaking long time to load). The other 5% comes from borrowing friends' external hard disks and transfer them to my computer of which is quite impossible as well as I couldn't bear to delete the current Japanese Dramas in my computer's internal hard disk that is, only if I managed to burn them into DVDs using Syidah's laptop as myy laptop is so pathetic it couldn't burn DVDs see I'm babbling without bothering to put full stops or comma signs to accentuate the matters that I'm trying to convey whaddaheck.

If I'm not mistaken, the first ever Japanese Drama that I've watched is the 'Power Office Girls' trilogy. Oh, I LOVE the whole three parts.

Japanese Dramas, unlike other dramas, are so simple and are not draggy. Most of them will take no more than 15 episodes. Seriously! Even Korean Dramas lost to them.
It's exactly 3.23 a.m. Gotta go sleep. Promised Izzati I'd drop by her house tomorrow. Huhuhu.

Muahahahahahahahaha.
I'm officially a Japanese Dramas addict. Hohohohohoho...
You can see how 'wise' I am in managing my holiday activities, hahahahaha...

Cerita ini sangat best....*thumbs up*

Drama Jepun ini bertajuk 'Code Blue'. Siapa yang bakal jadi doktor atau berangan nak jadi doktor, sila tonton cerita yang sangat menginspirasikan ini. Dan cerita ini menginsafkan sesiapa yang tak ikhlas menjadi doktor. Doktor ni kadang-kadang suka merungut. Kerja ni takde life la.. Penat la. On call la.. Hospital kerajaan bagi gaji sikit la... Who asked them to become doctors in the first place? Once you've decided that you're going to become a doctor, then you shouldn't complain about the current and future not-so-great things that you're facing or gonna face. Doctors= money? I don't think so...
I have a friend who rejected the MARA offer for Medicine programme before. He was worried that he'll get Indonesia after striving for two years taking A-Level. Oh man, what the heck! You're still gonna be a doctor, whattt... And guess what was his reason? Oh, I mean, his reason IS... ( 'is' indicates that the statement he said before might still applicable now).
He said: It wouldn't look good on my resume.
Me: Huh?
He: You know, having graduated from Indonesia. I'm thinking of applying to work in private hospital.
Me: Oho. I see...

Hahaha. If you know who you are. Aha, too bad. You ARE one of the victims of my sarcasm. Hahahaha. I'm saying the truth ok..
It's not like I'm saying back something from the past. I just had a moment of realization when I watched this show.
But err.. doctors. Aren't you supposed to be sincere? Your main priority is to save as many lives as possible. You don't become a doctor just to chase after glory, glamour err yeah.. monnneyyy?
Private hospitals do offer lots of moonnnneyyy righttt??
And another friend. She once complained of getting Indonesia (again, what's so bad about Indonesia, huh?). I know, at least, half of the students who secured the JPA/MARA scholarships must have felt a slight disappointment if the countries that they're going to go are not what they've been hoping for.
Hoho. One of the many signs of the ungrateful people.
Malas nak cerita panjang. Tengok jer la cerita ni. Cerita ni tak membosankan dan tak terlalu banyak scientific terms yang digunakan mahupun banyak penyakit misteri yang dipaparkan seperti dalam cerita 'House' dan tak merapu atau merepek macam cerita 'Cinta Medik' yang entah apa-apa. Juga tak ada kisah cinta-cinta tiga empat segi yang terselit macam cerita ' Grey's Anatomy'.
Yang lagi best, sebelas episode jerr!
Oh yeah, one special episode. Tengah nak tengok ni. Hahaha.
Yang lagi best. Ada Dr. Kousaku Aizawa yang sangat hot! Taklah hot sangat macam Matsujun. Charismatic, but not that attractive (my opinion)Tapi dia sangat sangat cool dan macho dalam cerita ini. Muahahahaha.

My verdict : 5 out of 5 stars. :D
P.S. Takde ke cerita tentang pharmacists yang menginspirasikan? Cerita tentang doktor gigi pun tak pernah dengar! Hahahahaha
( Yamapi- Dr. Kousaku Aizawa yang rambutnya serabut dan mukanya macam baru bangun tidur tapi tetap HOT dan macho!)

Random Random Random

Pheww, finally I can go online! The internet connection can go a bit hanky panky sometimes.
Oh yeah, watching 'Bambino!' starring Matsujun. Hahahaha.
It's a combination of 'Hell's Kitchen' and 'Rattatouille' ( did I spelled it right?). Yup, this drama series is about COOKING, COOKING and COOKING. I got hungry when I watched it. Looking at those appetizing delicious food. Yummy!
Oh yes, spaghetti! They even showed you how to make Italian Spaghetti. That is, if you have all the ingredients. LOL. This drama is surely inspiring. It teaches you not to give up and that if you want to gain success, you have to start from below/basics. And yes, don't be too cocky and think that you're good compare dto the others as there are so much to be learnt in reality.

Another random thing. I used to adore Robert Pattinson before. I got smitten with him ever since I watched him playing Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter. And yes, I continued having my eyes on him when the production company said that Pattinson's gonna play Edward Cullen in 'Twilight'. Bravo! Good choice! He's the perfect choice! But ehhmmm...
Speaking of the fictional character 'Edward Cullen', I got to admit that he's really deelish and good looking when I read ' Twilight'. I've fallen in love with such a perfect fictional character!
But unfortunately, after watching the movie, I got a bit dissapointed. He didn't play his role well in portraying 'Edward Cullen'. Well, let's say, he lacks the charisma. And the deathly aura that Edward Cullen's supposed to possess. Well, duh! He's a human. LOL.
Well, that's not the point actually. But my interest towards Edward Cullen and the Twilight saga has become diminished ever since I learned about Pattinson's true colours. A playboy! He thought that he's so damn popular and let himself being flung around by girls. PARIS HILTON included! Hahahahahaha.
My perceptions might be a bit shallow. Hoho. But thank you very much, Robert Pattinson! You have managed to ignite the feeling of being annoyed towards Edward Cullen in me. And yes, I had stopped reading 'Twilight' series only at the second book.

Post!

Ok. I know I'm supposed to be studying right now. Ohohohohoho.
Got my carry mark for computer. 45+/50. Not that high. But Okla. I'm grateful nevertheless. It's the highest in the class though. But it's quite low compared to other classes who scored as high as 47+. Well, Madam Fuhaina is strict. What could I say. But I'm still grateful. =D Huhu. Thanks anyway, Madam! =D
And, the carry mark for Bio Lab. The students in my class scored the highest range of marks compared to other groups. All of us get either 38+ or 39+ over 40 marks.
Well, though my carry marks for both subjects are acceptable, I must not be complacent. Instead, I must DOUBLE UP my efforts and strive my best to ensure that I get solid A for those two subjects. I want to get FOUR FLAT!!! Huhuhuhu.

So right now, I'm studying computer. MUST GET A! A ! A!
My plans this weekend.
Computer final exam is on the 15th of May. 9-11 a.m. Right after the exam, I'm gonna take the new room key from the Mahallah Office and transfer some of my stuffs to the new room.
Then, study again for Bio Lab exam. Which is on the 16th of May. Yup, the next day. The good thing is that it will be held on the afternoon. Still can do revision for the last time.
After Bio Lab exam, I shall go back to my room. Syidah will not be there, huhu. As she had finished her exam on the 15th and will go back in the morning of May 16. May 16???? TEACHERS' DAY! Ahahahaha.
So, I shall pack up my stuffs once again. Bring them up to the new room, tidy up everything in the new room. Do a last minute laundry on some clothes -hand wash. I can just hang them up and leave them dry in the new room.
Eat dinner. ZC cafe will probably be closed, WTH.
Then, gonna do Japanese Dramas marathon again. Gonna watch Mei-Chan no Shitsuji until 10.00 p.m. And that's when I'm gonna leave for the midnight bus to Sungai Petani. Sounds freaky, huh? Gonna meet Hanis and the rest downstairs. Then off to Jalan Duta/ Puduraya. Ohohoho. I hope it's Jalan Duta. Hohoho.

Ok. GO STUDY SARAH!

Siti Girl

In Bio Lab class this morning.

Brother Mahathir asked me " Where do you come from?"
" Urm, Kedah!"
He looked at me and frowned for a moment " You don't look like a Kedah girl," (I get that all the time)
" Huh?"
My friends merely laughed and they couldn't agree less.more.
" You looked like a city girl," he continued.

LOL. What's a Kedahan girl supposed to look like, huh? XD

EDIT: It seems like someone got offended by this post. I think what he meant is that ' I don't look like I come from KEDAH'.
Well, I wasn't born in Kedah. And I can't help but to speak Malay with a slight English accent. (That's what they said). And I can't even speak Kedah though I've been living there for 10 years. And I'm not proud of that fact.
So, don't get offended, OK.
What he meant was- It's rare to see a Kedah girl speaking the way I do. And he thought that I hailed from big cities like KL. So, that explains the statement 'You looked like a city girl,"
You get it now? :P

MUET-O

Hoho, just finished my MUET Speaking! HOHOHO!!!!
It was quite boring to wait for the other groups to finish their tests. We arrived at 11. The first group started at 11.30 and I was in the THIRD group and only started our speaking test at 12.35! LOL.
To fill my time, I chatted with Sakinah, Suhaila, Soul(Solehah) and the rest. We talked about English, EAP, ARASHI! SARAH MATSUJUN! :P and more Japanese dramas, secretly wishing that the topic given will be like ' How Japanese Dramas influenced teenagers' lives', LOL.
all sixteen of us are in the 'SITI' group! Hoho. Go, Siti! :P
Anyway, our turns.
Sakinah was candidate A, a girl named Samihah was Candidate B, Siti Sarah Nabilah was Candidate C and Siti Sarah Syahirah was Candidate D.
Lalalalalala.
The topic is ' suggest what is the effective measure to something-something child safety'.
Mine is -by imposing stricter laws.
As I was the last candidate, I had the opportunity of writing more points and elaborations in the paper while others were presenting. I did that, instead of listening attentively and jotting down their points. LOL. Survival skills, what? ;)

Then, with an air of confidence, I presented my argument. LOL. Stricter laws such as heavier fines, longer term in prison, caning-WTH, I dunno!
Then I said, only by laws, people will urmmm... change their behaviours? (lame) and in a way, give warning to the public not to commit such crimes as they will face the consequences later on.Bla-bla-bla.
Besides, stricter laws should be imposed on parents too.(Is there any law? I don't know. Don't care. As long as I have something to babble about) Bla-bla-bla. And I also included the case of Nurin Jazlin Jazimin. Bla-bla-bla. She was left wandering alone at night in Pasar Malam. Parents should be responsible( Eh, out of topic eh?). And by imposing stricter laws on them, they will realise about their mistakes. Bla-bla-bla. Whatever.
And also general law. By not permitting children to enter some places like Night Clubs (duh! WTH, SARAH?? I was babbling aimlessly, you see).
I don't know. I don't care. I was babbling like mad when the examiner tapped the bell, indicating that the 2 minutes is over. PHEWW!!!
Then, group discussion. I politely asked 'May I begin?' And I strongly supported my point. Then I asked for Sakinah's opinions. She strongly supported her point. Effective measure is from home. Then, I rebutted her point and asked for others' opinions. They were all supporting their own points, LOL.
But I further strengthened my point by giving examples, bla-bla-bla and kept on rebutting Sakinah's poinst and others. LOL. But I secretly agree that the most effective measure is from home. Huhu.
And when Samihah talked about public awareness campaign, I quickly rebutted by saying that 'Malaysians are not into campaigns'. LOL.
I should have taken the most effective measure is from home, right? Then I will have MORE points to elaborate. LOL. But I was nervous, you see. And when I'm nervous, I will have the tendency of acting dramatically by showing hand gestures and nodding vigorously to others, looking them at their faces. LOL.
And in the end, the other two girls supported my point. Imposing stricter laws. LOL.
And when I said 'Shall we agree to disagree?'
The examiner said ' You still have four minutes left'. LOL.
Oh, ok. And so, all of us were babbling. Me, to be specific. And tada. It was over!
Hoho!
I don't care. Hopefully I'll get Band 5, at least.
Hoho

HAHAHAHAHA

I have just finished my last computer quiz. PHEWW!!!
And a funny incident happened in the class.
As I was concentrating in giving the most correct answer, writing 2 reasons instead of one( LOL) and constructing the pie chart....
Okay, I'm exaggerating. I was about to write the 2nd reason. Hoho. Though the question only asked for one, LOL.
And suddenly
TENG! TENG! TENG! (Cue Joe Jonas' 'Gotta Find You' tune).
My first reaction was ' WHAT?'
Who on Earth could have called me at such critical moment?
I KNOW that I SHOULDN'T BRING HANDPHONE to class. I never DID, before!
And I KNOW that I SHOULD put my handphone in silent mode. But I'm afraid and still traumatised with the unfortunate event that happened weeks ago (You know, the incident with my dad?)
And off I jumped from the chair, clutching the pencil case- the handphone's inside! And went out of the class. JUST LIKE THAT! With MADAM in the CLASS!
I frantically searched for my phone, wondering who might be calling in such times. I reckoned it was my mother.
NOPE. It was Farah, asking about the computer class. She had just finished her MUET and asking whether Madam's still in the class or not. LOL.
Okay, grinning sheepishly, I went back into the class. Oh, my quiz paper's on Madam's desk.
I gathered all my things and went to madam, salaam-ed her. She asked whether I have finished answering. I said yes. Oho, I wanted to put more points, you see. But I was embarrassed with my impulsive action just now. LOL.
And off I went out of the class. Sakinah thought that somebody called and I had to rush back. Hahaha. And she said everybody was laughing at me. Oh no, a laughing stock.
I bought nasi goreng and went upstairs to my room, switched on my laptop and eating the rice when 'Aina suddenly called me, saying that there is BIO LAB CLASS!
Ok, luckily I haven't changed my clothes. I just switched off my laptop abruptly, covered the unfinished food, reached for the lab coat and lab manual.
That's all.
I need to submit the assignment tomorrow- will ask Aishah to come and save it into her pendrive and print it. Then, I need to finish up my LAST EVER BIO LAB 1 report. Experiment 10 and submit it tomorrow. Huhu.
That's all. LOL.

yo!

I'm in ZC Cyber Cafe now.
Class is cancelled today. Yay! Mdm is not feeling well. Huhu.
Wonder why am I here?
It's because my laptop failed to detect any internet signal. Frustrating much, huh?
IIUM-community and even IIUM-Guest are not available!
Maybe UIA decided to switch off the wireless stuff(modem, whatever) as the exam is approaching. LOL.
So, I've decided to kill my time by going to the cyber cafe. For only 15 minutes! Hahaha
Boy, it's quite hard to type using this keyboard.
Well, that's all for now. Cheerio!

Sweet Tooth

Oh no. I have a mocchacino ice blended that has already melted and a glass that is filled with Neapolitan ice cream to the top, in courtesy of next door neigbhour. Thanks Kasma! =D
Now how am I going to finish all that?
I need WATER!

Flash Back...

Take a look at this entry which had been posted months ago.

http://sarahkushairi.blogspot.com/2008/08/am-i-that-sarcastic.html

Scary, right?
It could only be one person.
It's JUN MATSUMOTO! O_0
Read his biography and you'll know.
He's SARCASTIC.
All Arashians are aware of that fact.
*Gulp*

Nothing better to do...

I don't have any mood to write long blog posts. So,this is it. It's gonna be short.
I tried to read and stuff my head with 'Computing Essentials 2008' but urm.. It's boring.
Never mind, I'll make sure to finish up those chapters from tonight till tomorrow.
Chapter 10 is the most boring chapter in the whole book. Seriously. We haven't even started that topic in the class yet but I took the initiative to actually read it first and it's bloody boring!
I'm thinking of watching 'Gokusen' but quickly remembered that I had made a solemn promise NOT TO watch any Japanese dramas starting from this week till exam finishes. Yes, I'm going to stick to that promise, no doubt about it.
I seemed to be more prone towards gastric problems whenever I skipped a meal. That's a bother.
I just ate this morning at 11. 30 a.m and at 4.00 p.m, my stomach is already grumbling and it was 'moaning' in pain. I quickly rushed downstairs and bought myself 'Nasi Goreng Kampung'. I finished the whole rice in just 5 minutes.
And now, I have a packet of chocolate buns by my side. Quite lazy to go downstairs and have ANOTHER meal. Gonna fast tomorrow. Peculiarly, my stomach didn't complained much when I was fasting. That's good, right?
My junior in Convent got UIA. My cousin and another friend didn't. But they got offers from matriculation, though.
I just opened the CFS website. Unlike last year and the year before that, those who entered matrics still can get the offers from IPTA.
However, things are different this year. I read that BPKP JPT will not consider the appeals those who accepted the KPM Matriculation made for 2nd intake IPTA.
Now things have become harder, right?
Those people have to take the risk if they seriously want to go to IPTA.
And if they didn't get it, both chances are gone. Including the one for matrics.
My advise is that you have to reflect on yourself and your results. Whether it's really good or not.
If you get 6A's above, then you'll have the chance of getting accepted to enrol in IPTA. Science based programmes, maybe.
5A's is the minimum requirement. And that's for arts based programmes.
The exams haven't even started yet and already I'm thinking of the plans I'm gonna carry out this semester vacation. TWO WEEKS ONLY!
Of course. Watching Gokusen and Hana Kimi Special will be one of my plans. ;)
mysoju.com will obviously be the staple in the internet diet.
youtube.com too.
And I'm gonna continue and finish up my private, personal, confidential projects. LOL.
Get new glasses with new frames. The current one is tainted with scratches already. And I used the frame since FORM FOUR!
So everyone, I'll be wearing new glasses when the new semester begins! :)
Learn how to cook. erkk. Almost all interviews of Arashi members stated that they
' Love women who are good in cooking," -_-
NO SLEEPING! I feel that excess sleeping is a WASTE OF TIME! You can do MANY things when you're not sleeping. Even though those things are not beneficial!
Yes, NO EXCESS SLEEPING!
Instead, go to the Gym la please..
Back in Pahang. My cousins commented on the roundness of my face.
Well, who cares, right? At least the fats are deposited on my FACE ONLY!
And people said that I'm skinny. Give me a break! You think you're too FAT, is it?
Imagine me. Skinny features with a round face.
Gonna get braces soon. They said that braces can make your face urmm.. thinner? :P
And that my upper teeth is not parallel with the lower teeth. Yeah, overbite. Not a serious one. I have straight teeth but as I've said before, the upper and the lower parts are not parallel.
I find it extremely difficult to smile by showing my teeth. And it looks even weirder when I smile without showing my teeth. It created an illusion as if my lips are swelling. Ugly, I tell you.
So, just to burn the studying spirits within me, I'll list all possible things I'm gonna do this 2 weeks of holiday. More like, 1 week and 5 days, LOL.

1. Japanese dramas marathon.
2. GYM!
3. Projects, LOL.
4. Cooking. At least one dish. I'm hopeless and pathetic.

And... NO EXCESS SLEEPING!!! Woohooo!!!! This is THE MOST important thing or else all my plans will not be accomplished.
I've just decided on that when I read about Ohno's (leader of Arashi) interview from someone's blog.
ohno said; "sleeping time is somehow kind of wasteful, so i made things"
Yeah, things like err.. The ones mentioned above! And that can even include watching J-Dramas! And err...help out in the kitchen and make sure the house is organized, spotless and clean when I suddenly feel guilty for just lazing around. Yeah, I'm guilty about that.
And polish up my driving skills. Parking, braking, gear changing skills. Make mum and dad happy by volunteering to drive myself to the nearest shop or TESCO to get groceries and all.
Only that I have to make sure there will be no single hill along the way.I'm terrified of hills.

P.S. Just bought a nasi lemak from the sis who knocked onto everyone's door. Can't help it. My stomach is grumbling! Hey, I got to fast tomorrow, right???
AGAIN! NO EXCESS SLEEPING!

Short lah sangat....

Lethargic

Just came back from Pahang.
I'm bloody exhausted right now.
Gonna post some entries tomorrow.
Huhu.
Penat!
