Updates.

Just an update here...I have got a place in the local Malaysian Matriculation programme...to Kedah Matriculation College, in Changloon.....Many would say this is pretty useless programme...no value at all....yep, i agree with you on that....but would like to share my point of view here....

Right from before, I didn't want to go to the Matrics...i totally despised it like how I used to despise Form 6 (still do though..) I had a cousin who completed Matrics and subsequently got into USM...and recently graduated already.....so it's natural for my family members and uncles aunties to talk me into going to Matrics...but that wasn't the thing that changed my mind.

I was thinking all this while that perhaps if i do STPM i will stand a better chance of securing an overseas scholarship later on.....compared to Matrics....but realistically...to score a cgpa of 4.0 in STPM is not an easy task.....and Matrics definitely proves to be a better option...

From another perspective, i believe most STPM students will end up in public universities also because majority won't be able to score the perfect score....and on the other hand Matrics students are reportedly guaranteed a place in the public universities already prior to completion of the programme...and if the student is able to maintain a cgpa of 4.0....he or she is able to choose the course and university he or she favours.....

And....STPM takes 1.5 years which after completion another half a year will be wasted waiting for the results.....whereas Matrics offers a 1 year programme....and to according to my preliminary calculations, it will only take 9-10 months......Another good thing about it is that it goes by semesters....and not like STPM where you cram two years worth of knowledge into one particular exam....It's not to say i'm not up to the challenge...but rather....I do not want to put myself in unneccessary pressure if i have a choice, which right now i do....

I plan to continue taking STPM tuitions....where I keep up to the STPM level of education...while sitting for the Matrics paper....this is the best thing i can do to make up for all the shortcomings in the quality/level of education provided in Matrics....just hopefully things will be smooth-sailing...I still plant a hope (a dying hope maybe) to get JPA.....but for now....this is my best choice, best bet.....and I guess im satisfied with it.....I believe with more effort, i will be able to keep up to the STPM standards.....

Imagine when you attend a tuition where everybody seemed like they are in a pressure cooker....you are just breezing through trying to gain as much knowledge as possible without worrying about STPM.....i guess it would just be great....

and...as I have always confessed....I really HATE Sejarah.....so Matrics once again proves to be a better choice because there are only three subjects to be taken, two sciences (either Phy or Bio stream) and Maths....NO Pengajian Am!!! WOohoo....Byebye to Perundangan, Kehakiman etc. heh heh.....

But....for the beginning.....it also means i won't have my laptop with me to Kedah....until everything settles down and after I have confirmed studying there.....I will definitely be deprived of the Internet!!!arghhhhh....

I have got to sign out now....i'm still going to school tomorrow....would like to spend my last few days in my school of five years....and with friends whom i have known for over a decade.....oh..not to be forgotten...teachers.....many of whom treat me like their friend....=)....by the way, I'm not going to withdraw from the school yet...I'm giving myself two weeks to try out in Matrics....so I will give a firm decision only after the school holidays (yay...school holidays bless me from being absent in school for two weeks!!) =D

Red.Annoying.Patches. (RAP)


If any one of you happened to bump into me anywhere....even in school....will immediately notice the new 'guest', RAP!!!....where did RAP affect?? my FACE!!!!chest, back, hands....isk....

Waited for a good two hours to consult the famous skin specialist in Penang, Dr. Lim Huat Bee....and it wasn't for even five minutes of consultation......*faints*.....and according to him....this is drug allergy....and haha...joke of the day...as I explained to him about my condition he asked me "Are you a nurse??or a medical student??" *double faints*

Everybody thought it was an allergic reaction probably from dusts....because i was tested positive for that...and i have a highly elevated allergy antibodies in relative to my age (25 times higher than normal people)....

But, it turned out to be a drug allergy.....means I'm allergic to drugs belonging to the Penicillin family.....i had a 1-week antibiotic (Amoxicillin) course about two weeks ago for my ear infection...i don't normally take that particular antibiotic for any other reason because apparently it's too mild....and right after that, barely a day or two after i completed the course...RAP paid me a visit already....but little did i know it would spread to my ears (pinna), neck, FACE!! and everywhere else......so depressing....my self-esteem is at its low point now.....with RAP's face!!! =((

Removed.

The previous post has been removed because JPA results were out on the 11th (it's my bad..so i thought i should just remove it)...it was a sudden decision by them...because they only posted on their website about the release date...somewhere on the 10th May afternoon....before that, they e-mailed someone and stated that it's going to be released only on the 15th....

so hmm...nope...as i expected....i once again see the word "Maaf"....numbed already....so that's it..have to keep this short....because i have to attend school tomorrow, after some half year break.....it's time to work again!!...=)....will update soon!

T00-OOOmato Ears...

yeah...you read right....it's TOMATO EARS.....and that refers directly to my ears. I have no idea how or why it happened....two weeks back...i had this sort of itch over on my pinna....so obviously i succumbed to the itchiness and scratched obliviously....

I thought that probably it was just an allergic reaction which is usually a one-time thing....but little did i know..the itchiness led to an infection....and now...my left ear apparently has pus inside....yikes....and to rule out allergic reaction...i have been taking antihistamine (XYZal) and antileukotrine (singulair) quite regularly for other purposes......and the redness of my ears didn't subside..

So, one week of antibiotic....anti-inflammatory....ear drops....hopefully it will get well....i don't want to go to another doctor again and be put on another course of antibiotics....it always happened that way.....*sobs*

Yummy....tuitty fruitty...yippiee!!XD

Actually...there are many things running across my mind now...but because of the limitation of time (I promised to do my mom a favour...so I'm stealing a bit of time since she's not around *ahems* bad i noe!)....i decided i shall post about my long-time obsession.....Don't know if I should label it as OBSSESSION...but dear close friends...should know...i am crazy over fruits...for no apparent reason...

I'm NOT obssessed over health (oh yes, everybody knows!)....no...I'm not an anorexic..so there's no need for me to substitute my meals with fruits.....and NOOO....I'm not someone who's extremely conscious with her weight....I eat like nobody's business most of the time....HAH HAH...

So...how everything started???No idea....but i really love eating fruits...i don't know why....and mind you, i don't take 2 bananas, 2 apples and 1 orange as my lunch....its POST-lunch...hah hah...right after my main meals (usually lunch) :


Combination 1 : 2 bananas, 1 red apple, 1 green apple, 1 orange
Combination 2 : 1 banana, 1 red apple, 2 green apples
Combination 3 : 1 starfruit (whole), 1 apple, 1 orange (XL)
Combination 4 : 1 banana, 1 red apple, 1 green apple, 1 orange
Combination 5 : 1 red apple, 1 green apple, 1 orange, 5 cherry tomatoes (i can't take too much of this because apparently tomatoes will worsen sinusitis)

Basically, the above mentioned combinations are those main ones that i will take (one combination at any one time).....and the sizes are usually regular ones or big....you probably won't find me eating baby apples....though they are cute....haha....

Mei Lean once called me CRAZY....for eating so much fruits..right after my lunch....hah hah...remember those days when we got home after school, bathed, lunch, online (fruits time too!) =D

and till today.....i'm still so crazy...i just finished Combination 3 a moment ago...that prompted me to post this up....now coming to think of it, i begin to wonder...if my blood glucose is high...because of all the natural sugars i took in....the last blood glucose test done in september 2006 was perfectly normal.....basically because i don't usually take sweet foods....except sweets...yes...sweets...but nowadays i take very little sweets already...don't know why.....

another funny thing would be....why does my stomach have a huge capacity for someone my size??weird huh? I assure you that i can eat as much as guys do...sometimes more....already done comparing with my fellow guy friends...*laughs* but one thing for sure...I LOVE FOOD!!!

yippiee yay yay....too happy thinking of food~~ciao~~
