we went to sunway mall for dinner that night...
and after dinner... mum and dad decided to walk around...
so... i went to SB to get a frap and study a bit?? LOL...
anyway... forget about the studying part... there's this couple that chose to sit behind me...
and the girl was talking so loudly and cackling all the time... =.=
even with my ear phones plug in... and the volume turned to the max...
I CAN STILL HEAR HER CACKLING... =.=
never mind her...
cause i'm happy i got my frap... XD

i cannot stop grinning...
we went to mum and dad's favourite restaurant for lunch...
cause it's dad birthday... 27th of oct... : )
it was a really nice one... with the ambience and nice food and all...
and again... while mum and dad drop in at prangin to shop...
i went to an isolated small cafe to do some studying....
the guilt settled in... so bo huat... i studied in the companion of a not-so-nice-honeydew sago... lol...
and our last stop... LITTLE INDIA...
visiting little india on deepavali eve...
it's so happening... loud music blaring... huge crowd... vibrant colours...

Snippets of my STUDY break... =.=

Note the title... STUDY in caps... : ( I should be studying... *GIANT SIGH*

Breakfast... Coffee is something inevitable... ;p

I realised... all my stationeries are blue...

Following mum to the market...

LOL... market scene...

I spilt coffee... stains on my notes... =.=

Orchid... from gramp's rooftop balcony... I haven't been up there for a while... until mum asked me to pluck serai for cooking today...

Gramp's favourite... She said they're versatile plants...

The old swing at the balcony... It has been there even before i was born...

Coffeeshop... at the old town of BM...

Those from BM... any idea where is this? ; )

Taken from the overhead bridge which leads to town... The BM railway station...

My desk... DUH... =.=

I got bored with viruses...

So... i tried out the different effects which my phone camera can produce...

LOL.. My collection of stickers... :p Found them nicely tucked in my drawers while rummaging through them...

Some souvenir i got when i attended my junior's camp... those are chinese knots tied on bamboo...

Cranes which i made during raya holidays...
ok... back to my notes... so much to cover...
p/s: joni... gia do chak wa... =.=

I wish i can see your smile again.. : )

Sitting at my desk,
staring blankly at my notes,
my thoughts drift..

Vividly..
I see your smile,
carved so nicely on your face..

I remembered how you always love to sit at the couch,
in the corner of the living room,
with the newspaper in your hands..
You always seem so engrossed in it.

When you're tired of reading,
you'd lean back on the couch,
with your eyes close..
Age seems to be catching up with you.

I used to sit at the table in the living room,
doing my homework, watching tv..
And sometimes..
Just to watch you sleep so peacefully..

You always narrate great tales of the past,
and keep me informed with the latest news.
From politics to sports to the famous celebrities,
you seem to know it all...

When i come home, happily telling you about my success,
You'd smile, clap and award me with a prize.
I was so happy then, beaming with pride..
I've always feel proud.. to be the apple of your eye..

Now that you're not by my side,
i miss you dearly..
but i know you're in a better place..
watching me.. guiding me..
as i wander down the path of my life..

Ah gong, I wish i can see your smile again.. : )

Sem 3.. Week 14...

When mr.keivan gladly announced that it's 5:17p.m. and yeah we could go...
with the end of that workshop... the 14 teaching weeks of sem 3 ended..
and the 3 weeks of study break has just begun...
sigh...

Sem 3.. week 14.. monday..
started of with PBL on asthma and ended with extemporaneous dispensing EOS...
what a day...
it was seriously nerve wrecking...
extempo sucked... sigh...
my emulsion broke... and i was pretty much in a rush...
i wasn't sure whether i did stomething stupid...
owh well... i shall not rant about it...
let it be over... but i'm keeping my fingers crossed that i will at least pass...
and through out the 3 hour exam... i thank my benchmates for helping me so much...
and pang tsen for your words... : )
i guess i was affected by how i did in extempo... and that night... even though we went out...
and i tried my best to cheer up and just enjoy...
i find that i can't... there was just something bothering me...
but thank god that i met up with min yi...
it was a total coincidence that she was there... and seeing her...
ALWAYS makes me feel better...
it's been such a long time since i last saw her in person...
even though we chat all the time in MSN...
but still.. seeing her is great.. : ) thnx gurl..

The post extempo outing...
Purple and Green
Sem 3.. week 14.. tuesday...
we had a mock OSCE ( stands for... Objective Structured Clinical Exam... i think.. XD )
lots of funny stuff crept up...
funny questions asked were replied with funny answers...
funny responses by the simulated patients triggered funny expressions...
and imagine... when the patient asked me...
"what does this drug do?"
my fantastic answer was...
"hmmm.... i'm not quite sure..."
*the hmm.. was a very long and slow one.. =.=*
and when she asked me again..
i crapped something superbly ridiculous.... haha...
which resulted in a smirk from mr satvik.. LOL
so... all in all.. OSCE is something fun... but then...
i don't like the Q & A part... and 5 mins for one station is like SO FAST...
maybe its me that's slow... =.=

Sem 3.. week 14.. wednesday...
i only had 3 hours of sleep the previous night due to procrastination...
serve me right i know...
fortunately... we don't have classes on wednesday...
and lacking sleep...
i was actually damn tired when we went and surprise michelle at her place...
anyway.. happy birthday michelle... : )
Sem 3.. week 14.. thursday... last day of lessons...
PSD again... and i was almost late for it...
while waiting for everybody to arrive...
mr. keivan suddenly told mei mei and i that we should do behavioural sciences...
said we'd make good counsellors...
having him said that... i once again wonder whether pharmacy is the right choice...
though he assured me that it is after i told him i wanted to do psychology initially...
life... there's no turning back... so.. no regrets... pharmacy...
and... to wrap up the day...
i made a last minute decision to go clubbing with the gang at euphoria...
but it was a very boring night...

Sem 3.. week 14.. friday.. today...
I SHOULD START STUDYING...

Why pharmacy?

andrew has been urging me to blog again and again...
so that he has something to read...
some more say my blog not nice... fine andrew... fine... ;p

anyways...
was talking to my roomie just now... and weird enough...
this time the questions that she asked and triggered this long talk are not the ones that we usually talk about..
she walked out of the washroom and asked joni and i...
" why did you take pharmacy even if its so hard and tough? do you think i should change course? "
and the first thought that ran through my mind was...
" this question AGAIN.. " i've been asked this question for lots of times...
and its the typical question people will ask when they know you are doing pharmacy...
what was my answer?
i'd normally tell them...
" actually... pharmacy is not my first choice... actually... pharmacy is the last on my list of choices... "and it goes on...
seriously... there are some other things that i'd love to do besides pharmacy... but then now that i'm in it... i've got to go through it... even though i don't really like it... or i should say that i might even hate it at times... but... no matter what... i'm determined to finished this... i used to dislike my days in bpharm... but i've learnt to accept them and try my best to like it... though it only worked at times.. haha... but i believe that there's a reason i'm here... though i'm still not sure what it is... i hope i'll be able to find the REASON at the end of my course in imu... and though this path may be tough and stressful... i'm real glad that through thick and thin there are always FRIENDS around me... and best of all.. my parents.. who'd always showered me with love and encouragement... thnx~

Lynn-ish randomness. XD

If life's a piece of painting,
I want to be a painter,
Splashing vibrant colours onto my peice of canvas.

If life's a pot of soup,
I want to be a cook,
Adding exotic spices to make my own special recipe.

If life's a piece of music,
I want to be a ballerina,
Dancing and twirling to the melody of life.

If life's an orchard,
I want to be a farmer,
Sowing the seeds and harvesting the fruits of love.

If life's a circus,
I want to be a clown,
Bringing smiles and laughter to the people around me.

If life's heaven,
I want to be an angel,
Touching the hearts and souls of others.

If life's now,
I want to be wan ling,
living my life to the fullest. : )

Grasshopper. St.Anne. Chiam Chiam. PENANG. XD

Just in case you're wondering what i've been up to after the last post...
which was... uh... a few days ago... ;p there're some pictures to help me tell some stories... ; )
anyway... i was at gramps place that day... the house is empty since gramps is at sg and she won't be back for a while... i was lazing on the sofa when i suddenly thought of how i used to sit there and make grasshoppers from leaves...
i learnt that from my classmates back in high school.. The ones they make are bigger..
but then i like smaller ones... so... here it is.. : )The GREEN grasshopper... XD

And i went to autocity AGAIN with han and friends on wednesday...
this time... they went to hongkie for a very very late lunch... i just tagged along... cause initially i was suppose to yum cha with min yi... but then she couldn't make it...
and after lunch... i suggested that we head to st.anne church... since the weather was nice...
and it's somewhere worth visiting in BM... especially after they renovated the place... : )
so yup... we went to st. anne... and i've got pictures to share.... :D

St Anne's Church

Still the church...

Finally... a photo with han... : )

Yours truly...

LOL.. this pic looks like some 70's pic...

that night... i was in my room using some unknown wireless connection to go online... and... out of nowhere... a chatbox popped up...
it was han saying goodbye cause he'll be leaving early thursday morning... and... suddenly... emo-ness floods in... hate it.. you know? he should've just be like the normal him and just leave without saying goodbye... he always does that... and i felt nothing... now that he takes the initiative to say bah bye... i don't want him to leave... =.=

today... i met up with huey yee, anson and kok hong... you don't have to guess where we meet up... AUTOCITY... lol.. we had a nice chat... but too bad anson need to leave for work cause his shift is over... so that leaves the 3 of us..and... i suggested that we go makan makan some hawker's food.. afterall we're in PENANG ma... XD

so we headed down to somewhere near the jetty... which was SO FAR... to have "chiam chiam".. to me it's rojak... just that the fruits are in sticks instead of plates... but the long jouney turns out to be a short one... thanks to kok hong and his LAME jokes...it turns out that the "chiam chiam" was quite nice... and the 3 of us were quite full after that... so.. we headed back to juru... and decided to go ronda ronda at the place where we used to have our scouting activities...

to think back now... that place is totally dark at night... one lamp post is so far from the other and there's no cars at all... and the hebat us... cycled around that place with only torchlights and a backpack... going from one station to another... and the most hebat thing is... this particular activity is carried out at night... no... i should say throughout the night... which means we start cycling in the evening until the next morning... the place is so isolated... now that i revisit it... i really thank god that nothing happened to us that night... and i really wonder what gave me the courage to do that... =.=

The driver... and lame joker... Kok Hong.. XD


The "chiam chiam" stall...

"chiam chiam's"

To think that they're once my juniors... XD

Snap snap snap... ;p

That's all for now.. : )
