Top Ten Reasons Why Terrorists Will Never Succeed in Attacking Malaysia

This list is still making me laugh (h/t: Jian). If you have been to Malaysia before, please enjoy, if you haven’t had the chance, here’s ten reasons to visit:

1. Terrorist decides to blow up KLCC. He drives to KLCC with the intention of planting the bomb there, gets stuck in a 2-hour jam, and blows himself up in frustration. PLAN FAIL.

2. Terrorist decides to bomb Ipoh as a practice session before targeting KL. He drives for the first time on the highway to Ipoh trusting the signboards to get him there, and ends up in Lumut. Terrorist drowns himself in the sea in frustration. PLAN FAIL.

3. Terrorist decides to blow up Puduraya. While walking to his destination, the bag in which he keeps his bombs gets snatched by snatch thieves on a motorcycle. He pulls on his bag’s strap desperately and dies after being dragged 100m on the road. PLAN FAIL.

4. Terrorist decides to blow up Port Klang. He succeeds!! But the next day The Star, NST, Berita Harian and Utusan publish an article on page 10 headlined “Boy playing with fireworks injured in minor explosion.” PLAN FAIL.

5. Terrorist decides to bomb Johor Bahru. He rents a house as headquarters and the night before the dastardly deed, three men with parangs break into his house, robs him and kills him. PLAN FAIL.

6. Terrorist decides to bomb Kedah to paralyze the rice bowl of Malaysia. That night, while secretly setting up the bomb during a heavy thunderstorm (so that no one sees him), Timah Tasoh Dam hits danger level, authorities open the dam gates and he is swept away in the floods. PLAN FAIL.

7. Terrorist decides to blow up Bukit Bintang. Upon arrival at destination, he is accosted by a pimp and spends the night in the arms of a beautiful woman. At dawn, authorities raid the place and arrest him. PLAN FAIL.

8. Terrorist decides to blow up the MACC building as he is a strong advocate of corruption. He enters the building, but before he manages to plant his bomb, he is found dead after a fall from the 14th floor window. PLAN FAIL.

9. Terrorist decides to blow up Serdang Hospital. He enters the hospital lobby, hears a loud crashing sound and looks up to see the ceiling collapsing on him. He dies. PLAN FAIL.

10. Terrorist decides to blow up Genting Highlands. On the way up the mountain, a speeding bus driven by a 18-year-old boy without a driving licence crashes into his car and kills him instantly. PLAN FAIL.

MORAL OF THE STORY: MALAYSIA IS INVINCIBLE TO TERRORIST ATTACKS!! :D

It's Funny but It's Rude

My coursemate posts this on his Facebook wall:

I hate weddings. old people would poke me saying "You're next". They stopped when I started going up to them at funerals and poking them, saying, "You're next".!!

A Sincere Note to Smokers

Dear Smokers, Please get a plastic bag and cover yourself whenever you want to start smoking to enable you to enjoy the smoke 100% by yourself. I don't want any percentage of it nor do my friends who don't smoke. Don't kill me if you want to kill yourself.

Regards, Your Friend : )

Happiness & Sorrows of My Past 1 Year

In this post, I would list out my happiest & saddest things that happened to me for my past one year in university. Thinking back the happy moments, it'll always trigger my zygomaticus muscle & move my lips commissure superolaterally. While those sad moments just stimulate my lacrimal gland. Hahahaha...forgive me for the medical jargons...can't help to delete from my mind after 1 year of study. :p



Let's continue on with the happy stuff first :
1)


I find it a great blessing from God to meet a few brothers and sisters in Christ who really cares for me, loves me, and pampers me like I am one of their family members. I can always go to them whenever I'm trapped in a stressful situation or I am upset with the life in university. Gabriel, who consistently sends encouraging bible verses in the beginning of every week, cooks good food and deliver to our windows whenever he is free or during our exams, prays for us when we are weak, be the victim for the juniors to bully, teaches me good beading skills etc. What an amazing CF president! Next is Sarah, who really cares for me and treats me sincerely, makes my birthday meaningful, gives me hotdog on Valentine's Day =D (what a surprise! LOL), cooks dessert and prays for me before every exam. She is the friendliest & lovable senior I've ever met! Of course they are others who are always there to support and care for me, which makes me so touched as I've never experienced such love from non-family members.



2)


I had really experienced God's love in person and learned to trust Him in making changes in my life. I feel really powerless to remember every single thing in every block before Professional Exam, and I decided to just study as much as I could and trust Him to do the rest for me. Faith is the only thing that I hold on to before stepping into the examination hall, believing Him that He'll guide me through. And amazingly, He has awarded me with great results that I've never expected.



3)

[A bunch of crazy dental & medical students having fun while studying serious stuff]

Having a circle of friends who are quite crazy (not as crazy as Form 5 or Form 6 friends) and who invented more nicknames for me. But sad thing is that they only discover my craziness towards the end of our academic session. Hahaha... ^^



There are a couple of sad things that I really care for and will never forget them. Coz they really hurt me. T.T

1)

My birthday. They celebrated for my two not-so-close friends(lets call them Ms. A & Ms. B) and me 2 weeks before my birthday because PRO exam was approaching. Actually the birthday celebration was meant for Ms. A and they invite most of her friends. Only a few faces that I'm familiar with appear. I am contented actually. But the saddest thing is that one of the organizer accidentally said that it was incidentally that they celebrated for me. 顺便... I was deeply hurt. On the actual day of my birthday, none of my dental friends celebrated for me as well coz they were all busy studying for exam. Yet, they celebrated for another friend when exam is 1 week ahead. It was an awful, meaningless, frustrated birthday I've ever had. T.T Luckily, my senior sincerely visited me and bought me cakes + lunch + dinner. This helps me swallow my sorrow back.



2)

People misunderstood me as being too proud of myself when I introduce myself this way : "Hi. My name is xxx. I know it's hard for people to remember my name since I have no Christian's name. But there's a trick and I'll teach you that. Just remember the number 1 and the letter C." Rumours all about this spreaded to the whole campus and seniors came warning me to be humble and quiet. And I ended up being very careful in speech and remain quite and introvert for the 1st few months in USMKK. No close friends at all to turn to in the beginning. I called my parents everyday and cried.


These are a few things that happened and had left marks all over my heart for the past year. Just hope happy things keep blooming while sad things don't repeat for the rest of my uni life in USMKK. =)

Miracles Happen because of God's Grace

Time really really flies in USM. It has been a year now since I enter this "deserted" university in Kubang Kerian, Kelantan. Hahaha... Just finished Phase 1 Professional Exam a few days ago and started my movie marathon since then.

Thinking back, I was still busy with the CNY performance a few months back, balancing dancing training with academic stuff. Everyday, I had at least 4 hours of dancing practice plus at least 4 lecture notes to read up. It was quite stressful but I really did have fun! CNY was closely followed by Selanjar 3 (CA), which all the Chinese feeling quite tense up since we had been submerged in the performance too much that we had lost our directions academic wise. But really thank God that I manage to score an A in the exam. Hehehe.... Happy!

I wanted to prepare for PRO 2 months before, but it seems like I can't get the right mood to concentrate and focus on my studies. Homesickness is the main problem. So, I decided to go home during the first week of study week. I planned to finish at least 4 blocks of notes at home, but guess what? I was addicted to TV shows throughout the week and only managed to scan through less than 3 blocks of notes. Anyway, charging up at home brought new breath to my revision back in the hostel. :)

Reading and memorizing are totally two different things. And so, I get really frustrated when PRO approaches, realizing that I wasn't able to recall most of the things I read previously. The only thing I was able to do is to pray hard. And this time round, I know deep in my heart that I wouldn't be able to do it without God's guidance and blessings. Finally, I learnt to let God and let go. For every exam paper that I sat, I went in with a calm heart and strong faith. It was amazing to have that kind of feeling, especially during this major exam as I've never experienced such calmness ever. Praise the Lord!

Anyway, I just wanted a pass for this exam so that I can get the ticket to go into 2nd year.

And today, the VIVA list has been released. My friends urge me to go and check whether I am in the list. And my only reply was,"Ahhh, its is impossible for me to be in the list." I was still doing beads and then I received a call from PPSG admin, asking me to go for VIVA interview tomorrow!!! Arghhhhh!!! I was so shocked that I manage to get an A for PRO! I was still trembling after putting down the phone, knowing that I'll be shoot by a panel of doctors tomorrow during the VIVA interview. I just don't want to be embarrased. So, should I continue reading tonight or should I just enjoy myself (being shoot by the doctors 2mrw)? Hahaha....

God's grace really guides me through all these and I am grateful for everything that He has given me in life. Thank God! God is good all the time.

Time Flies

Now it is just 2 days away from CNY break, another precious 1 week break that we get out of the 'hustle and bustle' life of a medical/dental student. As usual, the holiday is not for us to sit back, relax and celebrate CNY since Selanjar 3 is coming very very soon.

I've been here for 7 months???!!! And PRO exam is in 3 months time????!!!

HEART ATTACK or should I say CARDIAC INFARCTION...

1st Selanjar Exam soon...

Just a short update...
I am going back to the Friday-is-a-rest-day state in 3 days time.
I'll be having 2 exams in the coming 2 weeks, dental exam followed by medical exam.
I've read through the notes for dental syllabus but piles of medical notes are still waiting for me. Nothing seems to be absorbed into my mind now. It's so stressful. I am not sure whether I want to have this kind of life for the next 5 years.

Stress

University life started 3 weeks ago. Such a short period of time huh? And currently, I am having convo break for one week.
But I am feeling tonnes of stress on me already. It is like having thousands of concretes, enough to build a 30-storey building, on my shoulders. Heavy and suffocating.
I wonder whether it's my mind which increases the level of stress activity in myself.
First, I have to follow all the medical lectures as well as my own dental lectures. Imagine the lecture notes that I have to go through. Every words count.
Secondly, we have language classes and we are given tasks to complete : Oral presentation, job interview, assignments, etc.
Thirdly, we have Teras Keusahawanan which is a compulsory unit to be taken for our first semester. We'll have Jualan Keusahawanan very soon, interviews on entrepreneurs, individual and group presentation, report writing, proposal writing and etc.
Fourthly, we have to participate in some activities to gain merit points so that we are eligible to stay in the hostel for the coming academic session. So, I am in the Sponsorship EXCO team for Projek Hari Terbuka Desa and I have to search for sponsors. I am also involved in performances for Mooncake Festival and Borneo Night. Practices are conducted at night, which means I don't really have time to do sufficient revision as every practice session takes up to 2 hours.
*sigh
I need His guidance and strength to help me through all these. God, please help me.
