Langkawi. Belated. =)

I dunno what's with me.. but right now.. i'm just not feeling like myself...

maybe its the after effect of browsing through some photos.. or maybe anxiety..

i duno which... hmm.. whatever...

So.. i'm trying to blog about the langkawi trip.. to shut the thoughts away...

Langkawi.. Full of myths and stories...

and now.. our memories... =)

the trip wasn't a reaaalllyyyy smooth one...

in fact.. there were a few quite unfortunate stuff that happened...

but then.. i had fun.. =)

hope those that went did too..

Some pictures here to share with you...

Others are already up on facebook.. =)

Check them out.

Dataran Lang.

A very nice quay next to the petrol station. =)

We went there to look at a bowl of burnt rice.. and started taking pictures.. XD


The car rental people told me that this is the second best car among all the 6 cars.. kp rebut the best one awal-awal already.. so.. i thought i was damn smart for getting it before the other drivers who weren't there... =p but turns out.. it wasn't that good afterall huh? the stupid car key broke into half when we attempted to unlock the car... =.= but then.. not too bad la har... we were given a waja as a temporary until the key was fixed.. =) anyway.. thank you wei ping and andrew for being the drivers... =D

The perfect picture of us and our rides.. =)

Langkawi 18052009-20052009. 29 people. 6 cars. 1 destination.

Lil Things that Carved a Smile . =)

After i came back from Langkawi, I paid my two close friends a visit cause i wont be seeing them in Penang this sem break. They brought me around PJ, feeding me with GOOD FOOD. XD So... Thank you CS and LX for being good hosts and for everything else. The picture above was taken when Lx fetched me to the Lrt station before he went to uni. =)

I came back to Penang and was given THIS for my 21st birthday.. =)

From my parents, with love. <3

And today.. I went hiking with my parents... taking a trail that i don't normally take.. tougher than the tokun trail.. but... i guess i need the exercise... XD and it has been a long time since the last time i actually hiked with mum and dad... =)

On another note, i have been wanting to blog about my trip to Langkawi.. But i'm not done with editting the pictures yet... =( will post them up when they're done.. =) So.. till then.. happy holidays people.. =D

When You Believe.. =)

"Now we are not afraid... Although we know there's much to fear...

We were moving mountains long... Before we knew we could...

There can be miracles... When you believe...

Though hope is frail.... it's hard to kill...

Who knows what miracles... You can achieve...

When you believe... somehow you will...

You will when you believe.. "

A song i heard the nurses singing today... =)

it just touched me when i heard it.. and the tears just started welling up..

And suddenly.. Kin Man said what i had in mind: " This song sounds so right for us having our eos... " I guess that's true? =)

-07052009. 0705. A scene i looked up to see when i'm going through my pharm anal notes two hours before exam. =) -

Somehow.. Eos always has the ability to drain me... to plunge my mood... to make me lose faith and will... to just wanna give up...haha... damn.. i sound so pathetic..

Anyway... there's always stuff to keep me going... to help me through this..

when i'm weak and lost.. and for that... i feel blessed... =)

Thankew people.. Even though its just words.. Even though its just a smile...

A message from papa to be shared =)

" Have faith as faith can move mountains.. "

4 down.. 4 more to go... Jia you people.. =)

by the way.. guess what? this is my 100th post... =D perfect timing or what? XD

Med chem made me homesick. RITE. =.=

Was at starbucks for the whole day today...

not to chill but to study...

and for the whole day... i kept thinking of home... CRAP..

When we were having dinner at pappa rich,

the cafe was playing this song that mum once taught me how to sing...

"Lord I'm one.. lord I'm two.. lord I'm three..

lord I'm four.. Lord I'm 500 miles.. away from home.. "

such GREAT timing..

and then...

it played another one..

this time.. it's dad's all time singing aloud fave...

"Country roads.. Take me home.. To the place... I belong.."

Coincidence or what? =.=

and then back at starbucks.. when i was so ENGROSSED in tetracyclines...

i saw this family of four walking in.. and they just sat and chilled while having coffee..

it just reminds me of how mum and dad, han and i used to have dinner together and how we would go for coffee and just talk... shit.. i hate to admit this.. but i miss home... =(

So yeah.. tetracyclines.. It needs four rings to exhibit activity.. ring C cannot be aromatized if not activity is lost... C-5 is to improve pharmacokinetic properties... C-7 if added with an electron withdrawing group or electron donating group will enhance activity.. C-6 uhmm... if OH is removed, more acid stable... correct ar? whatever... =.= now that i have vague memory of tetracyclines.. i think i've forgotten about aminoglycosides... =( oh med chem...

Maybe.. Med chem made me miss home. RITE. CRAP.

signing off. nitez.
