3rd times the... bore~

yuhuu bloggie~

yesterday we preformed the Kenyalang Kinabalu dance for the third time at Kursk Politeknik University... it was nice all in all.. but most of us are kinda getting bored of doing the same old dance with magunatip.. altho it still seems to get the crowd winded up.

we've danced it so many times it became muscle memory. It was still fun tho..

but the most fun was being treated like a celebrity. rasa cam artist gitu~ ;p

as soon as we came of stage.. some russians n foreign students wanted to take pics with us. Probably the costumes tat did it.. all the bling2 and all. But i felt it was a bit too much tho.. baru turun stage sdh kena tarik2 bergmbar.. org pun x dpt fokus the next performance..

but what got me was that the myanmar students probably dint have a lotta female foreign students in their uni.. coz they were staring at us with a deprived-of-female-affection look. eeeee scary~

one guy came up to me and said "photo u me?"
sure i said.. but then he grabbed my hand and smilled up to his ears while his friend took our pic..
then they changed places with each other..
i dint mind that much but stalking can only go as far..
they was another who secretely took pics of us girls... not twice or trice.. but from our rehearsel the other day to performance day.. n he made no effort to cover up his attempt either. And he was following us everywhere. but thank God for my guy dancemates.. they kept us girls in between them somehow.. altho they did have a hell of a time making fun of us too.

neway after the concert, we were invited for tea by the dean. We were served tea n cakes. The dean was a bubbly old man.. he just kept talking2 and talking in both russian n english. He was the reason our meeting wasnt so awkward either.

but he did say something at the end of it all that made u sorry for him
he said : i envy u... u know why? because of ur youth n happiness. im old.. but u are young. so dont be stupid little beings and waste ur life away by being so ignorant.

fuh.. talk about a blow to ur ego. and he said all this when he asked us if we knew a song called sing sing sing from the 1920's.. waddahell~

after tat he called us babies. i love sweet old bubbly people. he's one of those people tat u know when he dies... so many people would strongly feel his loss.

he then made us sing native songs of our country.. n since of us were from sabah.. we sang jambatan tamparuli n rasa syg... he dint understand nuthing. but said he liked the melody. then he said.. "sing wit me pls... Do a dear.. a female dear..."
hahahaha...

just by looking at him.. u wud think he was a bitter old man.. but actually being so old n wise.. he dint mind making a fool of himself. We enjoyed his company very much...

after that.. since we dint finish eating our cakes.. he gave us wrapping paper to wrap up the cakes n go.

apa lagi.. tapau seja.. bikin makan breakfast bisuk hehe.
my friend penny however.. tapau-ed the paper instead...

me: ko bikin apa tapau tu?
penny: yay.. ada sdh kertas kira2 sy...

we oso was given a holiday today... so i skipped class today to write in detail how it went yesterday. i wanna be able to look back at my blog n remember how much i loved that bubbly old man.

well till my next post~

1st snow flake of the winter!

yuhuuu bloggie~

the 1st snow flake of 2008's winter landed on my eyelash today... last year we were taking pics like crazy.. but i guess we kinda got used to it already.

neway on the way to nursing therapy class today it was snowing heavily.. n this continued the whole day. But the temperature was only +1.4 dgrees today so the snow flakes quickly melted as it landed. All we got from a whole day of raining snow was muddy roads.. n it aint purty.

Hoping the winter wont be too cold this year.. i just hate wearing socks to bed.. my toes need breathing space too~ lol. The central heating in the building is still sufficient for now.. but i have my 9-fin heater on standby if ever it gets too cold.

its getting dark real early too.. 4:30pm n it already looks like 8pm. In a way its quite helpful. It makes u think tat its 10pm n u tend to study earlier now.

well enuf about the weather report hehe... todays Nursing theraphy class was interesting.
remember the theoretical injections class the other day? well today was our practical.
we met our dear old patient again (mr pillow) n began stabbing the poor thing.
the "right" way of course. Madam Yelena was keeping a watchful eye on us the whole time. While practicing our intravenous injections on Stacy.. (lol.. yep my roomate was also the patient of the day.. altho we dint actually inject her), Madam Yelena was attending to patients in our class. She was expertly multi tasking between us and her patients.

However there was this one patient tat my heart went out too.. She looked well, in her 50's mayb, but seemingly very unhappy. Madam took her blood pressure.. talked with her.. and asked her..

Madam: Kak vei chustvuitye? (how do u feel?)
Patient: fvse ploxa... ochen ploxa (everythings bad.. very bad)
Then madam was obviously comforting her.. holding her hand.. but i couldnt understand the rest of their conversation anymore..
And as madam did this.. the lady burst into tears.. and continued crying even as madam went out to do something.
We tried not to stare.. but u cant help but want to console someone when they have seemingly received a bad diagnosis. Still.. wat cud we do.. we cudnt even talk russian properly yet.

so we just continued to do our little injections into the pillow. Thankfully she stopped crying soon after..

We figured out why madam went out soon after.. she wanted the class to go follow the nurse on her rounds so that she could have the room to herself n the patient.

Off we went then... following the nurse, observing her. As we entered the wards with the nurse.. a lot of old people were there.. they were all so loving n friendly.. calling us in to study them... some even tried to make friends.. damm! shud really improve my russian.

priority num 1 : study the language better!! i am gonna be here for another 4 1/2 years.. huhuhu...

well tats all for now~

over n out~

Happy Bday D!

HAPPY BDAY DADDY!

mmuaks3!!~

i love u so much d... and im so sorry i cant be there for ur bday. *sniff2*

but still words cant express how much i appreciate you and all the things u have done for me.

i only want to make u proud :)

truly with admiration, love and sincererity... Have a blessed 49th Bday daddy

in a nurses shoes...

yuhuu blog~

ive a two hour break before my physiology lec.. so i decided to come home from my nursing theraphy class in the hospital this morning to jot down some words of wat happened.

it was a funny class today. dint know my teacher Yelena Alexevna (i know.. the name sounds so cool ryte) was act very dramatic in acting out scenes for us today. Today our topic was about Injections.... subcutaneous,intramuscular,intravenous n etc..

she explained us the different2 types of syringes, needles and how to correctly break open an glass ampule.

then she asked who would like to become the patient today.. n since no one answered.. she went to her cupboard n took out a pillow. she actually hugged n fluffed up her pillow and said "hello my dear patient".

Yelena : Now students how zu we correctly pirform an intramuscular injection?
Us: err... perpendicular? 90 degress?
Yelena: yes yes.. needle must be straight. see here pls students.

and suddenly she just jabbed the needle into the pillow full force and said "like this"

we looked at her not sure if she was asking a question or was stating a fact.
only when she said "poor patient... no no.. zu kill the patient" and stroked the pillow did we realize it was a joke.
fuh~ u must be one hell of a crazy doc to inject sumone like tat.

Yelena: very good now. Tell me pls.. where is the localization of such injections?
Us: err.. buttocks??
Yelena: yes yes.. very good. which part of the buttock students?
Us: err.. somewhere up here (showing our buttocks to her)
Yelena: specific name pls.. Upper lateral quadrant.. Da students?
Us: Da Da... (upper wat??)
Yelena: tak. tak. tak. (so.. so.. so..) So this part has no blood vessels or big nerves.. Here u may do as u please.
Us: er.. ok. (sounds so wrong)

anyway~
i dint know our buttocks cud be divided into four sections. and only one can be injected into.. coz if u were to inject into the other 3 sections... u cud be injecting into the sacrum or into ur ischiadicus nerve which will then cause intense pain followed by paralysis. In which case.. u'll be making it up to ur patient for life... fuh~ its never easy.

well.. times up~
gtg to lecture now...
till my next post~

Success!!

success!!!!!!!!

even the word itself underestimates our Deepa-Raya nite.

its was so hectic and adrenaline pumping. especially backstage when we have only 5 mins left before we perform n my hairs not made yet... make-up not touched up.. and some members of our dance missing. Only 2 mins before going on stage was i able to tie up my hair into a bun.. then i was telling my dancemates to relax.. when deep down inside it was actually a way for me to relax as well. And as soon as the "Org Kita" song by Abu bakar ellah came on...

all i can say was tat there was a lotta panic below... thank God we manage to get evryone in line before we performed. once we were on.. the panic subsided and the performance felt so short altho it was actually a full 8 minutes of dancing. In my mind.. i was as cool as a cat. yap yap. i rili was... hehehe... i think im getting used to performing on stage. Those psalmist(singing psalms for church) gigs helped i guess. Manage to get tru magunatip in one piece too. Got a big applause for tat. Im guessing the russians havent seen tat before. But the most important thing is.... i dint turn into a tomato on stage. muahahahahaha~

i felt so *bling2* in my dress too^_^.

so exciting~ ^_^

im glad everyone enjoyed the performance too.

cam whored all through the nite... thank u mr "camera" man. *wink2*

rasa cam artist pla skejap lol ;p.

*sigh*

but i dont know when i might be able to where the dress again... owh well~.. still was a hell of a nite ^_^

p/s: was lucky to get one pic uploaded! shiets~ i hate my internet~

owh n MyGames is starting next week. Will be playing for netball and basketball. Guess wat we're calling our team.... 1Borneo~ lol... im not being kenegerian or anything.. our team just happens to be from sabah n swak.. hence the name. uu~ cant wait!

Tonite's the NIGHT!

bloggie~~~~~

im sooooo nervous! heart-pumping, cold sweat in my palms n everlasting thirst in my mouth nervous.

im listening to 'Vertical Horizon - Best i ever had' to chill~

the thing is tat tonite is Deepa-Raya Nite!!! ony a few more hours before we go on stage ^_^ im more excited actually. I know our dance is rili nice... "very awesome" a quote from our seniors.. lol. minta puji. But its kinda pressuring too. If there was no Magunatip part (dancing with bamboo sticks clicking at our heels) i wouldnt be so nervous.. My hands are cold. Im praying i dont stumble and fall... tats all i ask! Not in my Murut dress... haih haih haih~~~~

Need to sangul my hair sumore... then wear heavy2 metal belts n heavy2 bangles... owh man.. i hope i have the strenght to carry it all.

Lol.. im exagerating.

Im sure it will be fine. (PULEZZZ let it be fine)

Well anyway.. i dont know who i can ask to help me with makeup. I can do the basic2 things.. but somehow when performing, u need to apply a lot more to make it more obvious to the audience. So i'll be asking someone last2 minit la this.. haih2~

Neway.. wish me luck!!
Will be cam whoring the whole nite! yeepee~~~

till my next post~

think this

heya bloggie~



i think im beginning to like philosophy.. really. im not being sarcastic here.

the teacher just gets me into the philosophiliii mood. her golden hair, her grandmotherly face, her wrinkled smile and o-so-ladeylike gestures.. makes me feel like its more of a storytelling class then boring philosophy. i know i seem stalker-like observing her like tat. but i just love sweet looking old people. ;p



well wat i realy wanted to share here was the questions she raised in class. really gets u thinking.



ok this might be a bit boring. but i wanna rite it down anyway hihi~



neway she was storytelling away about Plato, a great greek philosopher who first started questioning our reality. (i think if we dint have tv sets and the internet.. we'd be thinking about every little abnormality in our lives as well.. just to pass the time~)

well he asked.. "what is the really real?" (according to russianglish) or in normal speaking language.. "what is the true real?"



Plato concluded tat we cant trust our senses coz all tat is an illusion. He thought up that the idea we first have is our true reality. And that the product of our idea is only a copy of our reality.



confusing ryte????



lemme put it this way. if u were a carpenter.. n u felt like making a table one day, u'd have to think up wat kinda shape, size or colour u'd want it to be. Therefore an IDEA (the true reality) pops up. This idea we make into a product. TADA ---- a table(the copy of this reality).



Now.. i bring in this painter.. n this painter wants to paint tat table.

Therefore...........

he is actually making a COPY of a COPY!!



I KNOW~~~~~

wat is this crap.

but still if they dint think this up.. we might have never moved up in civilization. philosophy contributes to modernization in its own ways i guess.

*sigh* im self-consoling.

well till my next post

Deepa-Raya Dance!

bloggie~ LONG TIME since my last post..

been sooo lazy. FULLSTOP.

lol. no excuse there.. will try harder to update on my boring life ;p

well next week i will be performing a sabahan cultural dance thingy for deepa-raya nite..

its actually rili kewl. we get to do magunatip dance.. which is in fact my dance. i say tat coz im murut.. hehe. Its a gud thing i brought wit me my murut traditional dress which i can use for tat nite (refer to an earlier post to which stars my dad making me bring tat dress)

rili tot i wudnt act wear it.. since its gonna be about 2-4degrees out later. i'd freeze my buttocks in it. its SLEEVELESS. ehe-he-he. yea.

omg.. im seeing purking lips rite now (i know u guys dunt know wat i mean.. but he insisted i add a sentence about him in my blog.. here u go darl. ur sentence ;D)

other than dat, student mass has been upgraded to 2 times a month now! wuhuu~ i really like attending these masses coz i actually understand them. (russian mass is very russian u see) and besides, the songs we sing reminds me so much of home. Last student mass was especially memorable for me.. im now the new commentator for mass because the usual one is graduating soon. And i also became psalmist with another girl last week, we were told to kinda sing a duet wit the psalms.. like in different tones or sumthing.. but i have a feeling.. agak hancur jg la.. but people were too nice to tell us. lol. then i also had to sing in the choir and play the tamborine.

talk about MULTI-TASKING. rasa macam org kuat church pla.. but its more like we lack man power. huha.

itsokay~ i enjoyed it. I act had to major tests the next day. Physiology n Psychology papers. But mayb it was coz God saw me singing my little throaty-toad-like lungs out for him (i still havent fully gotten my voice back from Acute Bronchitis the past few weeks.. hehe forgot to update tat) He decided to help me cancel my basketball practice n lecture the next day. Aint tat sweet of Him ^_^. so i managed to cram in 2 majors tat day.

oya! n Happy Deepavali friends ^_^... Love it! manage to escape a class today because of it. i suddenly became indian n needed to take the day off to go out for prayers. ngeh3... can feel my horns ody.

sit. i havent studied for philosophy.

oya, the other day in philo lec i went in a carefree life loving child.. and came out confused about my existence. the philo lecturer was teaching us about existence. she said..
"Students, we know tat we know we exist... but do animals know that they know?"
then she paused... letting us digest the question.
i kinda still understood her here... coz i've always wondered if animals question their existence as we humans do.
but then...
"but students, even if we know that we know... what is to know??"
then i was just.. lost.

it got a bit too philosophical for me then... owh well, i guess people in the old'n days just had to much time on their hands n dint know wat to do with it.. so they decided to start philosophy.

there are so many more weird2 things in philo. but i'll humor u sum other time. Now i really need to start on my philo readings about Anaxagoras. nows theres a familiar name ryte? ryte? Not.

till my next post.

update~

yuhuuuuuuuuuuu~

sowie for no updates lately... its not tat i havent the time.. ive just been a lazy bum. hihi ^^

well im now back in russia~
i know wat ur thinking.. when did i get back to msia? hehe went into hibernation ryte after exams... brain just shut down n lay dormant till it had to be used agen here for my 2nd year..

darn~

Hols went by so fast... now im back after a whole 2 day journey back from msia. Took Korean airlines this time.. went from Sabah straight to Seoul for 4 hours... transited there for 5... took a 9 hour flight from there to Moscow.. then took a bas to Kursk for another 8hours.. TAKE THAT! felt like a piece of mold at the end of the journey... huhu~

well neways.. been here for 3 weeks + ody... schedule not as hectic an crazy as before.. but things are getting interesting.. Learning more about medicine now.. None of the basic crap nemore.. Nursing therapy teacher took us on a tour around the hospital@school as well.. talking to patients.. telling us to listen in on the conversation.. altho not getting most of wat they were saying... RUSSIANS talk so fast!

neway saw this guy wit so many operation scars on his body... i was so fascinated... x tau malu ni.. went right next to the teacher to stare at the scars.. but i guess my sakai mode was the right way to go.. coz those standing so far away from the bed were told to come closer..
well then as we were trying to listen in.. the teacher translated a bit to us.. saying tat tat guy had his right kidney taken out.. we just noded our heads in understanding... then she said his left kidney has stones in it.. we noded sumore.. then when the teacher pointed to a long deep scar from down his alba line from under his ribcage to the left of his umbilical, she said tat the man's spleen was taken out due to cysts and they manage to scrap the cysts off his intestines as well.. we all went "OOOOHH" in unison... the teacher quickly said "Without emotion pls students... without emotion" ;p haha
i guess we kinda creeped out the patient... one thing i learned.. is no matter how bad everything may seem.. we shudnt give any indication of it.. to not worry the patient.. Physchology of the patient may help in their healing too..

well.. tat was the most interesting thing so far in the hospital... *sigh*.. the rest is still clases as usual..

trw will be another quite relaxing day i hope...

till my next post~

Updates galore~

hey2 bloggie!

ever since my internet's been so sucky here the past few weeks.. i havent been able to update u on all thats happened so far...

1. we won BIG in Nizhny games!! WUHUUU~ netball being one of the gold medal contributers... we won 13 out of the 18 events held... now already 3 times in a row ksmu has won the title... which means... we get to keep the trophy! yeeepeee~~ have many2 more pics... but getting tat 1 little pic to upload.. *sigh* i'll just upload really2 important ones...

Nizhny Novgorad is beautiful by the way...

2. Had a Nizhny champion's bbq a few days after coming back.. i know i gained at least 3kg's from all tat meat.. yaiks~ imma be fatty2 gurl soon.. muahaha~ *sigh*

3. Ryte now im having my finals... ah! the stress! kill bio kill!! finally finish my bio n latin paper.. next paper is on friday.. inorganic chem... wish me luck! but i kinda feel i've ran out of steam for the exams... went full charged on bio last monday.. n i havent recovered since.. imagine reading parasitology,genetics,evolution n cytology in a span of 4 days... i know its all last minit.. but we finished syllabus just a a week before finals.. wth~

4. Im coming HOME soon! 17th july is my flight from Domodedova airport in moscow... 7 hour flight...then transitting in Dubai for 5 hours.. SHOP till i DROP.. then continue our 7 hour flight to lovely Malaysia...reaching on the 18th at 9:30pm...

but darn it.. some frends of mine manage to move up their flight to the 8th.. i wanna go home early too~ huhu.. already called my dad to check on flights.. *fingers crossed*

huhahuha.. got so much to say... so little time.. gotta study2 now... fridays exams!

*tying headband over head* CAYO2!!!!!!!!

Netball JERSEY!~ yeppe~

wuhuuu~

i just got my netball jersey last nite during training~ its so kewl~ lol.... it has my name n number n everything~

it says at the back... 'chriSty' num '15' ^_^.....
n on the front it says... KSMU netball 0'8...
n it fits purrrfectly ^_^
dunno why im telling u all this in detail when i can actually post up a pic... but i've tried posting.. n it starts giving me problems.. sum popup comes out in russian.. darn.. not to worry tho.. i'll find a way ^_^

the jersys not as high quality as u can get in msia... (msia is CHEAP) lol.. but its still amazing how we managed to find a jersey and get it printed so last minute... next week we're going to Nizny already!

huhahuha~ im sooo nervous.. lol i dunno why.. but i just wanna win ryte now...
wanna get that GOLD!
even our captains been saying its the best present we can give her before she graduates~
so tat means.. WE MUST WE MUST!!
coz i know the teams really good too.. n we have a big chance in getting it..

like last nites practice was rather dissapointing... at the start of the game we were all over the place.. buttery-fingers here... wrong passes there... n our sharp shooters we missing so many shots... we lost the first game..

but after the break n some motivational words from our captain... we manage to win the 2nd, 3rd n 4th halves...
owh~ did i mention we play againts guys??
lol.. the guys here act have their own team.. the BLUE team.. lol..
its really fun playing againts them.. n least its no catfight.. they play with strategy n speed... them jumping like monkeys makes us wanna jump like monkeys..
but really it was so tiring in the beginning.. now i feel everyones gotten used to the fast game...
altho the guys keep on warning me to put my 'game face' on... u know~ the one that makes mirrors crack n rodents scatter off to safety... they say i dont look scary at all... more like constipated when i try the game face... ekeke..~ siot~

neways the seniors keep warning me tat the actual game is much rougher.. other uni's just dont seem to keep the no-body contact rule.. so i'll be expecting bumps n bruises later on..

hehe well nuf bout netball.. todays Victory day! in russia...
we're suppose to have a Sabahan BBQ today but nobody's confirmed it...
damm im hunnngry~

oyea oyea~! last nite was Braham's bday!
omg~ he btul2 kena the worst wacking @ bashing i've ever seen... imagine this..

after blowing out the candles n the suaping of cake..
our frens took him into the hall... the started tying him up n trowing eggs at him..
then warm water... then cold... then cake.. the flour...
but worst of it all was this basin of disgusting, rotting, foods n liquids which they have been saving for special occasions such as these..
the smell was sooooo bad... i decided to stay out of the 'war' n become a 'neutral' party instead in the kitchen... doing wat i do best.. eat~ lol...
i cant believe wat they told me.. they had a molding chicken, rotten eggs, a smelly shoe.. n the best part.. a used condom!! all mixed to make the special soap for abraham... omy.. it was crazy~ pity him la...
hahahahahaa~

Going downhill...

heya bloggie~

havent been having the nicest of day lately.. altho before this we had a Garden Gala dinner at church.. which i will write about when i get the pics to them with..

i just failed my bio major.. damm.. hate hate hate! parasitology.... who cares wat size those worms are, what kinda shape their eyes are, how many eggs they lay... putui~ altho i cant expect to pass when all i had was 1 nite of craming all 4 phylums into my tiny brain... but still! i have to do atravodka next week for it... just wished i got it over with so i woulnd't ever have to think about it agen till my finals..

darn.. trw i have a biophysics major sumore... another 5 topics on electricity to study... huhuhuhu~ its like my brains getting tired of info n wont receive anymore God-damm formulas they come up with..

i usually wont complain when it comes to studying.. coz it is medicine after all.. but when u have 6 majors in a row.. in 1 week... u kinda feel like vomitting out all the info.. coz its getting u stressed out n become a nun instead.. no stressing out there..~ lol~

and its messing up my sleeping pattern.. i wake up at the weirdest times n feel refreshed.. hurm......

argh...

neway i talked with my fam tru skype last nite.. n marky said to study with a smile.. it automatically takes the stress away.. "study with a happy feeling" he said... i think imma try it tonite...
altho smiling from one ear to another reading anatomy might freak my roomate out.. especially now tat we're on the male genital organs chapter.. kakaka~

neway.. got ruski class after this...
need to memorise the names of body parts for todays lesson..
o! n i know wat a dimple is now is russian... its 'YUMACHKA'~
sound so much cuter in eng.. lol

tata for now bloggie~

dear bloggie! last 15th april was one of the bestest bdays ever!

altho 15.04.2007 still ranks as my number 1 ultimate best bday hehe...

but it was sooooo wonderful.. i dint write it in my blog on the day it happened tho.. coz i've been sooo bz lately. not to mention next week i have 5 major exams.. S**t.. its crazy..

but neway.. i just gotta tell u bout my 20th bday...

first it all started at 12 o'clock midnite.. as always.. friends in my hostel will come celebrate birthdays in the kitchen.. with the usual bday cake n estrella(keropok name) n coke... then followed by the throwing of tepung n eggs n everything..
fuh~
made me neves to celebrate my bday... the food fight turns u into a... urm.. somting like a homemade pizza... eggs n flour all in ur hair n shirt..
why dont u just stuff me in oven then huh~ lol...
well after the party... my groupmates gave me my present..
its a lovely dress.. which i soooooo luv ryte now... cant wait to finally wear it somewhere.. darn.. definitely bringin tat dress home later in july...

neway the next day went like any other school day... i tot at first there wud be netball training that evening..
but guess wat!!
they canceled the training coz it was too cold outside.. n decided to give me a surprise bday instead.. i was touched..
there really like my own family now... they'r so friendly n make me feel apart of the team..
eventho im a new member n all.. but i feel comfortable around them.. which makes me so happy..

haih2 *sigh*
wat a wonderfull day dat was...

well till my next blog bloggie...
gotta study now..
tataaaa~

NIZNI GAMES 2008! here i come~

*11th April 2008*
heya bloggie~ im posting an old blog on a newer date hehe...

just got back from netball practice.. was so fun n tiring at the same time... well not exactly but mayb it bcoz i lack stamina.. or mayb because we dint have enuf people to play just now.. so instead of guarding my partner only .. i had to guard 2 peeps instead.. one the WD n the other the GK... imagine me running up the court.. n then down agen into the D to guard the GK!.. huhahuha's more like it..
control2 ja tadi so tat i dont look to exhausted haha..

neway.. GOOD NEWS! ngeh3... as u cud have guessed from my title..

im going to NIZNI! yeepee~

guess all those hours of going to netball practices were worth it after all..
act i just went to sports coz i dont wanna end up a fat ol' lazy pig.. couped up im room all the time.. seriously.. if u dont get up n socialize around here.. u wouldnt have a life.. studying is not everything people~ i know we're all future docs n everything... but dont tell me all mdic students shud do is just study2 n study their arses off~

well there are a lotta people like tat here.. they wake up at 5am every morning to get an extra 3 hours off study revision.. go to class from 9am-5pm.. come back.. eat rolten (russia's version of maggie) coz they dont wanna waste time cooking sum nutritious meal.. naa'ah.. those few precious minutes cud be used absorb more n more info.. continue studying into the wee hours~ then get only a few hours of slip... then its the same routine over n over again... YIKES~ talk about being zombie-like... (n im not exageratting.. except the rolten part.. they cook good eggs i guess.. sometimes~ lol)

fuh~ i pray tat never happens to me... i do wish to be as hardworking as them.. but not until it results in me looking like a sick patient myself.. (touchwood)

nwy, back to topic~

so we finished netball practice just now.. n i was about to go home.. but the seniors told me to stay back.. i tot she wanted to tell me about the next practice or sumting.. but huuurrrmm...
everyone else they(as in seniors who i know are in the uni team) let everyone else go back home.. so we sat in a circle in the middle of the court.. n the team captain asked me..

Punida: christina... i want to ask u if u would like to play for the nizni games?
*CAK* (okieeee... act kewl chrissy...)
Christina: hurm.. when izzit?
Punida: in mei.. around 15th.. but we might leave on 14th.. bez atra (meaning = no need to ganti2 class)
*yaa... come la..* (i heard someone say)
Christina: hehe.. okieeee la.. sure
*chaka chaka chaka yayy yayy* chearing n clapping of the team.. (i made it sound like a chu-chu train wakaka)
Punida: Good! so now we have a new member to our team.. introduce urselfs everyone.. this is mala, hani, etc..etc..
i knew them all already act... but guess its a formality.. lol
Punida: so the syarat2 to this team is tat...
omy.. ada syarat2 lagi tue..
Punida: u must be able to EAT a lot n talk like a mulut murai! ahaha..
then u know wat i said...
Christina: omg... this is where i belong! ahaha..

tat got the team in fits of laughter...
aduh~ i cant believe i said tat... malunya... hahaha this is where i belong lagi tue... mcm babi ja my reaction when i heard about makan...

hee... neway.. it was nice to be accepted into a team now... no wonder before this in every netball practice.. i was taught a lot.. they would stop the game halfway to teach me a new way of guarding.. or give advice on someting.. (damm blur jg wei.. all the tactics n strategies.. before tis was main suka ati ja hehe)
i tot it was coz i was playing sucky.. but i guess they saw i could improve... ^_^ tx for the confidence guys~

but the downside to this whole thing is the practice has increased to 3 times a week.. n with my hectic schedule.. im gonna be so tired i guess.. haih2... but watever...
dad told me to just go nizni if i got picked anyway.. experience org bilang.. hark hark..

i'll work a way for it in my schedule.. im sure i can still maintain my grades.. hopefully.. *fingers crossed*

will pray extra hard tonite.. hehe..
tats all for now bloggie..
tata~
mmmuaks~

Alive n kicking!~

yuhuuuu~ bloggie..

omg... its been so damm long since i posted an entry here... sowie readers (i doubt any tho.. lol ^_^)

neway i actually remembered about my blog agen why i saw a groupmate of mine start her own blog... spent hours brainstorming for my url.. knew it was something catchy like.. err.. chrissy.. cherry.. crossy.. sumthing like tat.. but when i finally remembered the name agen... guess wat~ i cudnt log in! forgot my pasword too.. huhuuu~ gave up then n there... but 2 weeks later.. i magically remembered!! *sigh*...

well tat was interesting.. haha~

been soooooo many months since i blogged in ya bloggie~

so many things have happened~ went back to malaysia during winter hols.. *answered prayers* (refer to blog on how i wanted to go homey2) hehehe.. im such a mummy's girl.. n daddy's girl... overall im just plain MANJA!! when it comes to family...

neway... going back was really an adventure... but i'll tell u bout it in my next blog.. when i have more time on my hands... now im typing while my roomate gets ready.. so tat we can be on our way to russian class.. hehehe.. got something much3 more interesting to blog about here...
but it happened like a week ago.. or was it 2? hmm.. watever.. yg penting.. i got over a fear of mine.. *hik hik so proud* ^_^

so it all started one sunny day.... (lol)
typical storyline...
no no!
its was a stormy nite... the wind was howling... trees were shaking~~ uuuu~ (im exagerating)
harhar~
actuuuuallllyyy.... it was just a normal saturday nite... we went for a rosary prayer gathering in the 5th hostel.. it was a gathering dedicated to the deceased fathers of three of my RC seniors... its was really sad but everybody manage to lighten up the mood... n scary when i think about it... wat was happening? all 3 fathers gone at around the same time... n to think.. the seniors were already about to graduate... really got me thinking about my 6 years here.. wat if something happens back home... i woulndt be able to take it... it got me praying hard tat nite... for the deceased fathers... n for my own family... may God be with you always... keep you in good health, and in His protection always...

well after the rosary prayer.. we had a FEAST! my goodness.. my seniors can really cook.. all the macaroni n pizza n sheperd's pie.. i was flabbergasted (lol! who uses this word!).. all i knew was tat Kelvin's(the CHEF) macaroni was a blessing from heaven hahaha.. after all the eating.. we had a karaoke competition just for fun... nobody could leave until they sang a song.. me n stacy decided to sing 'More Than Words'... we even voluntered to sing earlier coz we needed to get back home... but who knew God's Plan...
all of a sudden the seniors were saying.. u shud become a Psalmist... which i heard as Samist (i tot they were making fun telling me to become a Sami.. ciss~) n of course.. after their explanation of me needing to go in front of the church to sing verses of the bible.. i began shaking in the knees~!! i told them.. no i cant.. i cant i said.. but nobody seemed to be on my side in this... huaaa~ i even said to them..

me: hey! i cant! i'd turn as red as a tomato if i were to sing in front... i have stage fright~
max: God wont sumpah u into a vegetable if u sing terribly...
sumone i cant remember: wat about the times u danced on stage with a sari on??
sumone i'd like to cekik! : yeaaa.. no need to sexay2 here (doing gestures with his shirt up his stomach)... just show ur voice...

n tat was tat...
it was a paksa-rela situation i couldnt wriggle myself out of..
so i decided to just practice for a couple a times tat nite..

the next day.. i couldnt concertrate on anything except the time... another 3 hours till mass... now 2... now 1... huhu 59mins 99 secs to go... my hands were cold n scaly... i just prayed i wouldnt mess up...

n guess wat..~ once i entered the church.. i felt strangely calm... no more racing heartbeat.. no more butterflies in my stomach..
i felt i owned the place.. ( well not exactly.. but u get me ryte)
felt as if i'd done this a 100 times before..
mayb it was the Holy Spirit tat came over me at tat time... the Lord took away all my nervousness n anxiety.. n helped me sing like an angle (direct quote taken from Titus.. lol)...
n when i sang my fav verse... 'sing alleluia to the lord~~' ... i felt my heart soar high above the heavens as everyone in the church sang along with me...
it was a truly wonderfull feeling..
i felt free..
free from a most haunting fear tat kept me from singing in concerts when frends invited me to in school... or during my highschool prom.. (joy.. u can bear witness to this) hehe..

*sigh*

well... i think i've made the right decision coming here... to Russia.. a so very foreign place for me...
its helped me grow in so many ways..
i've done many things i dint think i cud do..
n for tat.. i am trully gratefull..
Amen.
