3/12 of my hols^^

wonder why 3/12?
its the third week of my 3 months holiday:)


it was a fun and enjoyable week spent in KL-Malacca-Muar
to summarize the 6 days trip:
i took a train from Ipoh to KL to meet up with my piggy girlfriends, went shopping and food-hunting with them for a few days before headed to Malacca for a day trip, finally headed to Muar as one of the "pig"'s hometown is thereXD

pic taken at Look-Out Point in KL

the whole KL scenery is awesome!

but the food...EXPENSIVE

the 5 piggies from USMkk

X)

coming up next is...

THE FOOD DIARY!!!

don't drool on my blog please^^

well,

till we meet again.

cheerios!

happy parents' day!!!

a late Mother's day

an early Father's day

equals...

HAPPY PARENTS' DAY~❤

a super nice Baskin Robin's ice-cream cake...

so lovely huh^^

we enjoyed it very much...

each of us holding a dessert spoon

dissecting through the layer of Jamoca Almond Fudge ice-cream and chocolate cake

the whole chunks of roasted almond...

the silky smooth and super creamy ice-cream...

the spongy chocolate cake...

the cheerful family chat...

and the sweet smile of ours...

owhhHH~

what a SWEET & LOVING family!!!

♡the end♡

ps,

maybe what i heard from the radio is true:

mother's day and father's day are meant for those who never express their gratitude to their parents!and that for me...im dare to say that i love my parents each and everyday...i did argue with them sometimes><...but,well,that was part of the fun!muahaha^^

let your parents know that you love them

they deserve it

because you're always the little devil

and they're always the angels who always stand by your side

no matter what

1/12 of my hols^^

well...

that's about my first week of holiday

hopefully i'll be keen enough to turn on my laptopie and blog more in this hols

stay tuned♪

oh its finally my turn^^

exam's finished.

leaving with a feeling of numbness.

i wasn't as excited as i thought would be.

maybe because of im just SO NOT satisfied with my own performance this time.

DUH~STOP THE EMO!!!

HERE I COME HOLIDAY!!!

=DDD

i have miraculously finished packing everything

my arm and forearm muscles are aching and i think i might have Prolapsed Intervertebral Disc

ALL because of the 12 boxes of stuff!!!

anyway,i was happily dealing with the pain though

doesn't matter much since i can rest as much as i want from now on!^^

daddy mummy will come and fetch me next morning!

the most wonderful thing that i have been looking forward to

3 months of hols!!!

i wish i can spend it wisely

but so far there's no any plan yet...

so...suggestion?hehe

anyway...

safe journey and happy hols to all my batch mate!=)

i love to watch House

he inspires me

but sometimes also reminds me that

i'll never be a brilliant doctor as him

because im just not that smart

say hi to panda

Hi~it's me...

the blogger Vivian!!!

couldn't recognise me anymore with the panda eyes huh><

well, this post is supposed to be reserved till tomorrow when my exam finishes OFFICIALLY...
but as you can see, most of us will see today as the UNOFFICIAL end of our exam
because tomorrow's only left MCQ paper
MCQMCQMCQ~
for medical students you'll only have 3 choices for each question: true/false/you don't know
sounds easy huh???
but not so because its always the paper i get the least satisfying result!

im here anyway because i think it won't harm if i take 15min to rant a bit
before gathering back the broken pieces to work hard for tomorrow
plus i won't be free to blog tomorrow cz i'll be busy packing to go home;)

ahhHHH~
i TOTALLY screwed up my OSCE Clinical paper just now...
firstly, i've got a real thyroid patient with a large anterior neck swelling!
secondly, i couldn't answer most of the questions on suture!(guess what, my pen ran out of ink in that most critical time!)
thirdly, my history taking was so kelam-kabut!

i hate it when i know that i can do better but i didn't=(

my eyes looked like panda

my hair has become scantier, day by day

i need something from home:

love

first residency for CFCS

to my dearest freshie readers, 

CFCS actually stands for Community and Family Case Study Programme. It's a pre-requisite subject for USM's medical students in order to pass the pre-clinical year. There will be four residencies in total, which means that we'll be entering the village that we're assigned to for four times, each time with different missions. 


during our first residency, which i've just completed today, we were given a mission to walk around the kampung, draw the housing map of it, tag all the houses, and then we will randomly choose ~150 houses to do our survey on the villagers' health status. After interviewing 150 families, we need to key in all the data systematically, analyze it and then choose the most prominent health problem among the villagers to do further survey during the second residency on september.

OH PLEASE!!!
ENOUGH OF THE BORING, FORMAL INTRODUCTION!!!

welcome to...

Kampung Berangan & Kampung Banggol Jenereh

before starting our journey, we were waiting for USM Bus outside the girl's hostel...

everybody LOOKED so enthusiastic, yet a lil bit reluctant.

reason?the exam is just around the corner!!!and you're pushing us into a VILLAGE, for 3 days!!!

LOL~but we turned out to be enjoying the whole process, well, at least i did^^

passing by a long-stretch of pretty paddy field on the way to the village...

it looked like the place where Jay's MV 稻香 was taken!!!

after greeted by the friendly penghulu and the villagers...

our mapping and interview walks begun...

sometimes, it rains.

but most of the time, the Sun was just right above our head!

well, i got a severe headache during the 1st day because of the heat...

the happiest hour???it's ALWAYS the makan time...hehehe

our penghulu was so extremely friendly and we were treated 3 niceee meals each day!!!

looked at all the tired faces after a looong day of walking under the sun, visiting houses asking questions, and getting their body measurements...

and on the very last day, the penghulu even asked the villagers to cook a "Kenduri" for us!!!

the food was extremely tasty!some, are completely NEW to me^^

i've learnt quite alot of things during these 3 days...

no1 is definitely to eat by using my hand!

no2 is...i think i've acquired, at least, a bit of Kelate slang of speaking Malay!!!^^

Yea, as i've mentioned just now, we were actually kinda not-so-happy when we got to know that we are the 2nd batch who will be entering the village during the study week period. i think i might be the only one prefer this arrangement because i'll be getting a short break from the lecture notes and have something to divert my dull and stressful emotions away, for 3 days...


and now,the thing has over! 
im glad that my group members are well-cooperated and efficient on getting our job done! 
hopefully this thing will elevate my spirit to strive and work hard for my exam next week!!!

OoooYeah~~~
i can smell my study spirit burning within me LOL
im getting my ass back to my lecture notes, right now!
in the meantime, no more blogpost til my exam finishes on 2nd June!!!
don't miss me too much
cheerio~

♡good luck and all the best for the exam♡

BIG SMILE

=)

from vivian

gear up,ready,GO!

been spending the past few days to cover those unread lecture notes


and from this moment onwards(right after i finished blogging^^)
my revision schedule starts!!!
i have 15 days right before the exam
minus 3 days of CFCS "masuk kampung"
there are only 12 days left


im sure that i can finished revising within 12 days
but how long/good i can remember everything?
nah~im starting to create pressure on myself again
maybe this is me
who always try to push beyond my own limits


both of my daddy mummy asked me to only aim for PASS
i'll bear in mind for that
cause i don't wanna make my life so miserable
i mean...
how long can a person lives?
i don't wanna screw up the precious 3 weeks of my life just because of a term exam


sleep when im sleepy
jog when i couldn't concentrate
eat when im hungry
entertainments when im stressed
im gonna treat myself better this time
yet not tilting the balance away from the exam...


okok...
ENOUGH of the babblings!!!

let's gear up

and start the journey

jiayou everyone!!!=)

news.letter

dear mommy,


You don't need me to remind you how much i love you.
Happy mother's day.

Love,

Vivian

♥      ♥      ♥     ♥     ♥

don't ask me why am i 1 day late in wishing my beloved mom

cz i purposely do so

this is what makes my blog special i guess

LOL

i feel like an ice-cream recently

im melting 24/7

i bathed 4-5 times each day that i felt my skin is getting thinner and thinner

but i just can't study with sticky body!!!

thank God it rains heavily at night for 2 days

at least we can have some cooling at night

there's really no place on the Earth that's hotter than Kelantan!!!

there's an outbreak of Cali bugs again!!!

spotted some in my hostel

praying hard that it won't cause me any trouble

been having statistic lectures for Community and Family Case Studies(CFCS) for 2 weeks

and it's darned confusing and complicated!

i love maths a lot

but maths in statistic is a completely different thing

and the so-called SPSS computer programme that is used for data-analysing

owh its just disastrous for an IT idiot like me

XD

exam's getting nearer but im still not giving it a 100% attention yet

been busy drafting letters for the upcoming Intervarsity Wushu Championship, organised by our USMkk Wushu Club...

im the secretary, for the very first time in my life haha

learning how to draft formal letters properly, establish rapport with HEP staffs and also VIPs

etc etc

my new wallet...

quite an expensive one but i think the quality is worth for the price in the long run

i'll chop off all your fingers if you try to steal my treasure again, i swear!

just some updates on my life

before bidding good night

im gonna have a nice, cooling sleep tonight=)

time to get serious

just finished the Hubungan Etnik examination consisted of 40 MCQs

and it marks the official beginning of my revision schedule for Selanjar 2 MD examination

yes, i haven't started revising, not even a single note

to make thing worse, there are 2 weeks of lecture notes from GUT block which i never touched before

(that time i was away to the Bangkok medical conference)

as usual, i dislike talking to people during exam period

it maybe due to the fact that i will be easily infuenced by people's emotion-STRESS

plus it's hard to ignore other's speedy progression

another saddening observation is that people will reveal their masked, selfish side in this critical period

which im so frustrated about and hate to see

but i don't wanna lose my true friends! 

whom are my pillar of support especially in a place that is distant from home...

so dear true friends, let's continue to support each other without creating extra pressure among ourselves kay;)

the ultimate motivation comes from>>>

HOME for 3 months after the exam!!!

JIAYOU♥

my life in the fairy tale

hello world!!!

i've just returned into the real life from the fairy tale

im living like a princess when im back home:)

well, im now abit lazy...tired...adaptations...after the long journey travelling...

okay! im gonna give myself a day break^^

and im gonna tell the world what i've done in the fairy tale...

number one is ALWAYS my family

number two is my friends, which included my pets(dogs are man's best friend!)

number three is...FOOD

"lui cha"

my first lunch when im back homey

the luxurious dinner at a chinese restaurant with my beloved family and grandma

lunch of the second day...the famous mee goreng and pasembur in ipoh...owh i enjoy food-hunting with my mom!!!♥♥♥

thursday night always means pasar malam!!!the niceee laksa

i always enjoy the morning jog/swim/hill climbing with my parents...

then followed by a super nice breakfast!

my fav Hakka Mee

and i love shopping with my mom...

and hunt for food at the same time!!!

my mom is so adorable that she would fight with me, just for the food!

haha~

home-cooked food is always the best!!!my mom's famous secret recipe char siew is both me and my daddy's favourite!!!

 

another morning routine exercise...we had curry mee and special curry puff with chicken pie filling as breakfast!!!yumyum~

 

one of my dinner, daddy brought us to a niceee western food restaurant...and i had cheesy fish fillet with penne bolognaise

ANOTHER round of exercise...we had my fav tosai garing as breakfast!!!

the best tea-time snack ever!!! 

ooyea, that yellow kuih is actually homemade pumpkin kuih hehehe!!!

 

there was one night we had barbeque dinner...lamb chops...chicken wings...foot-long sausages...asam fish fillets...and this is italian styled salad, made by meeee!!!that dinner was superb!

the last dinner was claypot chicken rice...then we went to a tongsui shop but i didn't take any pic though...was too busy with the tongsui...haha

 

well, that was the end of my food diary...

so,tell me...

how can i NOT gain weight???

hehe

*     *     *

anddd...you know what???

hols simply means making yourself as pretty and feel as good as possible!

cz there's absolutely no chance for me to wear pretty clothes, funky accesories and glamour fingernails in USMkk!!!

i wasn't able to decide between sunset or the deep blue sea...

so i applied both, alternately^^

*     *     *

and of course, other than these...

thanks to my super mom who's a super driver...

i managed to settle all my lost IC, driving license and credit cards etc etc in 2 days time!

next would be the British Royal Wedding which i get to watch because im home

owh Kate and William they are simply the sweetest royal couple!!!

my poor, cute mom she missed the kiss at the balcony!!!^^

my mom and i also went to watch "Red Riding Hood"

i think its quite a nice movie but i can't understand why those people wrote bad reviews for it in the newspapers...

then, at homey...

we also watched "The Black Swan"

a nice movie indeed and the female lead really worth to be crowned the Oscar winner(mommy told me so^^)

however, there are those scary and 18SX parts that will create bad influence on underage children lah~

*     *     *

i've absolutely no regret for heading back home for 6 days...

the only thing is that i, again, didn't study!!!

but this is not considered as a regret because its predicted!haha

i was showered with love

i was fed until i can feel my stomach bursting

i was motivated

and im fully-charged now!!!

ready to fight for the upcoming Selanjar 2 examination...

and also the 3 days masuk kampung trip that i have to endure...

1 month...

just 1 month!!!

i will be back to my homey again, and this time, for 3 months!!!

can't wait for that:)

in the meantime

you'll strive HARD for your study!!!

jiayou^^
