Heya bloggie!
Last nite at 12:15pm... the new students have arrived. Abraham told me tat a classmate of mine would be arriving.. I dint think i was true.
Until i SAW her!
CHONG KAH HEE!!!!!!!
my pren!~~~~ my long lost pren~!!!
first time i saw her... sana dia berdiri on the 2nd floor of our hostel looking so blur2. I live on the 3rd floor btway.
Can that girl with a large backpack on her be....? is that truly my S.M All Saints school mate?
i said "well hello there preety lady... can i get yo number?" *hair blown by a breeze just for special effect ;p*
just kidding. i couldnt hide my excitement actually.
i really said "Chong!! wahhh u came!" then she said "Chris!! yeaaa... ada kawan"
then i said "Ya!!! jan risau.. sy jaga kau" -----> why did i say tat? mcm mama2 pula.
i think from that slip of tongue, subconciously i knew how hard i was to fit in with the new enviroment here. i had no one really close to me when i came. except abraham.. n azwan... but we werent so close yet.. n so mayb a good friend will help her transition better.
too bad i cudnt stay n chat with her... i went up a while n came down to find her moved into her room already. which room? i went shouting her name down the 2nd floor corridor... but i guess she dint hear me. and just like tat... she was GONE. ceh.. macam tulis novel hihi~
no worries. i'll find her today..
O!!! HAPPY DAY! (quote from my sarcastic physio teacher)
wish all my cwazy frens came here too...
well til my next post~
tata bloggie~
ps: i have taken a pic of aren's new hair. but this post is all about Chong. hehe. mayb later. tata~

Clueless wannabes
hey2 bloggie!
we r so clueless~ but yet...
today was so fun in Nursing Surgery class!
the teacher told us to take our sphygmanomometers n stethoscopes n go in pairs to a few patient wards to talk with patients.
IN RUSSIAN~
at least cikgu group lain kasi heads up on what to ask patients.. how we should interact n all.
sekurang-kurangnya kasi la tips2... ini tidak~
huhu...
we just went into the wards blindly... acting like we had did this a million times before. confident in our swagger, vibrating an air of confidence in each step.. yep.. until we had to open our mouth that is.
sana la kami tergagap2.
Me : Zdraztuitye. Kak y vas dila? (hello.. how r u today?) ini soalan standard yg kami blajar in russian tadika
Patient: Narmalna. (normal)
Me : Kak vas zavut? skolka vam let? (wats ur name? age?)
Patient : Sasha. pid-disiat vosim (Sasha. 58)
Me : kakoe y vas zhalobie? (what are ur complaints?)
n as i jot this down fervently, i find out that i've finished asking all the questions i thought wud take me at least 15 mins in 5 mins. sini sy sdh buntu pikiran.
Me : Praba... camana nie? apa lagi mo tanya??
Praba : errr err... gedye vasha bolit? (where is ur pain?)
our patient then points to his OBVIOUSLY amputated leg n says... "zdest" (here)
im sure we looked liked a couple of bimbos then, but we sorta ran out of questions too. lol. if only they spoke english or malay, i think we would have breezed through this.
Me: ok skarang apa lagi mo tanya ni prabha??
Praba : ok now we take his blood pressure n pulse la.
after we took his blood pressure and pulse... (my palms were a bit sweaty... i hope he dint notice lol) we then again stood in silence. we were suppose to talk about his life or sumthing with him.. but our limited command of russian left us stuttering to form sentences.
however he was very understanding n dint mind our inexperience. "study more" he told us.
we did continue to have more awkward moments with him as we talked in malay in front of him trying to figure out if we had missed anything. but the first time is always the biggest hurdle.
after sasha.. we walked out of the ward to find our groupmates having a hard time as we were. the next thing we knew, all of us was standing outside the ward discussing questions to ask the patients.
then we went in for a second round
we talked and measured the blood pressures of two others after Sasha..n it became a bit easier.
it was really fun too.
its funny how a simple act of taking somebody's blood pressure n being thanked profusely for it, made us feel special.
im hoping there will be more of these sorts of practices tho. practice makes for more confidence.
well... other than that,
im updating to say that...
WE'LL BE DANCING AGAIN!!~ WUHUU~
KENYALANG KINABALU IS BACK.
our group has been entered into the Student Festival Competition. its not just a performance this time. its a competition... uuu~ we're not expecting to win.. but it will be so much fun. plus we have modified the dance... and its looking preety cool..hohoho.
n the best part is~~~~~... that its this FRIDAY!... we only have 4 days to prepare!~~~ wuhuuuu (hint of sarcasm)
*gulp*
im actually freaking out.
lets hope for the best shall we.
wish me luck ^_^
tata for now bloggie~

Its good to be a woman
Hey2 bloggie...
yesterday my groupmate girls n i (plus wenkie who we consider one of us.. hence we invited him to celebrate womans day too.. which he did whole-heartedly ^_^) went to eat at Chong's Sushi Place to celebrate Womans day...
i just LOVE sushi...
especially Unagi n salmon sushi.. n teriyaki chicken rice.. *drools*
anyway.. we dint expect 'lou dai' (our nickname for wenkie) to pay the whole dinner for us! wuhuuu~ ur the best. n for tat.. im posting ur picture here.. so swheet of him! :D n sumore he paid for the taxi ride... awwwww... must have left a big hole in ur pocket ryte.. lol
suddenly i felt bad tho.. coz we dint really get him anything for Mens Day. Yeebee n stacy cooked for him tho. but it wasnt from the whole group. but there's always next year :)
this is our 'lou dai'. Ex-leader of our group.. coz he lost his passport n came late for 2nd year.. n so Praba had to replace him. but thank God he wasnt held back a sem... if not.. who would spend us on Womans day?? *sniff* (just kidding)
n these are all the ladies...
it was a nice dinner. Tx wenkie!! :)
lol n just for fun.....
Ten Reasons God Created Woman
10. God worried that Adam would be lost in the Garden of Eden, because hewouldn't ask for directions.
9. God knew that, someday, Adam would need someone to hand him the TVremote. (it has been noted thatmen don't want to see what's ON TV. They want to see WHAT ELSE is on TV.)
8. God knew that Adam would never make a doctor's appointment.
7. God knew that, when Adam's fig leaf wore out, he would never buy a newone for himself.
6. God knew that Adam would not remember to take out the garbage.
5. God wanted man to be fruitful and multiply. But, He knew Adam would neverbe able to handle labor pains andchildbirth.
4. As "keeper of the garden," Adam would need help in finding his tools.
3. Adam needed someone to blame for the Apple Incident and for anything elsethat was really his fault.
2. As the Bible says, "It is not good for man to be alone."
and the No. 1 reason of all
(Tada .. drum roll ... fanfare ...etc.)
1.God stepped back, looked at Adam, and declared:"I can do better than that."
hahaha...
till my next post... xoxo

yes yes. we are trying to buy her affection..
she was extra nice to us afterwards tho. phew~
but its on days like this when u have nothing to do... except go tru a few old pics of home .. that i wish there was a foward button on time so i can quickly get my 5 more months here over n done with.
fyi, it should have been 4 more months had it not been the MMC made it compulsory to do our summer practicals here. grrrrr.... bullies~
n now i only have 1 month of hols in msia n the rest will be spent here.
