回到過去

日期: 2010 年3 月25 日
心情: 超興奮的~

如果我有小叮當的時光機,那就讓我回去到三年前在馬來西亞的一個晚上...:)
那本來只是一個普通的夜晚, 但對我來說卻永遠都那麼的深刻...
每當回想起...我的嘴角都會不自禁地揚起來...

那晚我好興奮,興奮得睡不着覺...就好像在雲端飄呀飄
隔天早上, 雖然沒有充足的睡眠, 但是我還是好精神唷!

我只想說, 謝謝你讓我成為最幸福的女生! :)

Bad news to UK pre-registration pharmacystudents...

I bet everyone who will be starting their pre-registration year in community pharmacy 2009 have had known about the problem occured in applying working visa in UK.

Yes, because of community pharmacist and pharmacy techinicians are no longer on the list of national shortage occupations. And, because of another reason that our salary is below the national guideline. Because of these two reasons, many overseas pharmacy students who already got their offer in last summer (2008) to start their pre-registration year in community pharmacy in 2009 are going to lose their job.

Facebook is a new tool that overseas pharmacy students use to gather all the 'voices' hiding in different countries.

According to information from PJonline, UKBA will only review this problem in September. So, what does this means to all of us? We CANNOT start our pre-registration on the same day as stated in the offer letter.

What are we going to do next if we really cant get the working visa? Balik rumah? So, what is the part of purpose for studying a four years pharmacy course in UNITED KINGDOM? Why don't we just go to other countries like Australia?

I think the reason behind all of these "surprises" to pre-registration pharmacists is originated from economy recession. Even UK residents are losing their jobs, so why do they giving chances to people from overseas? Of course, they wouldn't do so.

Let's see what will happen. While waiting for the final decisions, we should figure out how to apply government service thing in Malaysia. Sigh...

No subjects

Hmph! Maybe i should bring a recorder with me next time. Why? Because recently when i meet people, they will sure ask about : "When i came back ?" "When will i go back again?" "Am i still studying or working?" "How long will i be working in UK?"....I have been bombarded with same kind of questions again and again...

OKla, I understand it is normal and okay for people to ask this kind of questions. Maybe i am just tired of answering same kind of questions and like to complain. hehe...sorry :P

I am so bored! I want to do something and go somewhere. :[

Opinion on skincare products.

Nowadays, when you flip pages of beauty/fashion magazine , I am sure you will see a lot of advertisements of skincare/cosmetic products.

Seeing the growing numbers of different beauty companies in the market, I think it's really hard for consumers to make a decision on which is good or which is suitable for them. So, consumers normally have to spend lots of money in trying and finding the most suitable product. View this from another angle, actually consumers are paying money to treat themselves as animals in the experiment.

Not only that, these advertisements usually come with pretty models and all kinds of claims about how brilliant are their products. This is how they attract new customers to try on their products. Because most asian girls want to have fair skin and every women want to beat the natural process of aging.

But, after a second thought, are all these considered as good thing or bad sign?

1)There is no evidence to prove what they have claimed about their products.
2)There is no specific regulatory body to regulate all these skin care products. This is because these products would not normally cause any deaths or adverse effects.

For example, there is one type of products which can make your skin shiny and smooth. This kind of products help to remove the first few layers of your skin. But, after you used this products, you cannot expose your face in the sun, or not you will more prone to sunburn than others.


All I wanted to say in this post is --Shouldn't we have some sort of strategies to regulate all these skin care products even though it will not cause adverse effects like medications? I think we should. :)

The day when i handed in 40 credits.

Surprisingly, with only 4 .5hours sleep, i managed to wake up early as i planned and i was actually 'very awake' (maybe is just over stress).

I did my final checks and modification on my report until 11 something. Guess what happened? I spent almost 4hours just to get my reports ready for binding. How sad~~~T_T

Quite an unlucky day actually. I realised that the two sets of report wasn't printed as it shown in the computer. All formatting works gone crazy after i clicked print. It's crazy that there was big spacing in between,figures and tables were cut off into different pages, not only that, even the number of pages in the table of contents all become 22222222222222222222222222222 or 55555555555555555555.............................................................................
speechless....i tried open and close N times, go internet to find solution, tried on different computer and the answer is 'these' don't help at all. I went to asked the librarian about what happened, she just told me it could be the page setup, and she doesn't seem to be helpful in this.

After endless trying, i went to find another librarian, he is even 'smart' that he said i have sent too many documents to printer and this leads to problem in printing. But, i know it wasn't, I told him, he don't believe me, but he go ahead and delete all the printers in that computer. At the end, the computer became not connected to any printers. OMG!!!!Don't act like you know when you have no clues on what's happening. But, I have to say thanks for you trying to help me. :)

I wasn't patient enough to wait for the IT man to come back from his lunch, so I decided to go to Cripps computer lab. As i walk out from library, I was still very stubborn and don't want to give up, so i tried the computers in another lab. And, guess what??I manage to solve it myself at the end!!!!By changing one of the figure references that making everything gone crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!including me !

I was worried that I might not have enough time to get everything done and hand in at same day as Student Union said they need 2 hours for binding. But, i managed to do everything as i wished la.

I walk and ran a lot today. My journey was like this : QMC-SU-home-SU-QMC within 1.5 hours.

Anyway, I have handed in the 40 credits report! I was so happy that the thing which have been torturing me for almost 2 months had over. It's over, so as my university life.

I am having gastric pain now, its probably because i drank coffee this morning and skipped lunch due to the problems i have encountered when printing out my report.

Supposed to be very tiring now, but i still can't really sleep. Whenever i am overstress, i can't feel the tireness.

I am off to cambridge tomorrow for house hunting. Finally can go somewhere else other than sitting in front of computer until backpain and neckache. Hopefully, there is something fruitful from this trip which costs me 37.50 pounds.

Poster presentation is over...

At the beginning of our projects, we had been told that we have to produce abstract, poster, final year report/dissertation for our project, and obviously we are frightened by all of these ( or is it only me?) hehe...

Now think about it, everything was almost over, we have handed in our abstract, done our poster/oral presentation, and our four years studies will be ending soon with a full stop.

The feeling was a bit weird because while i am happy that i can get rid of all reports soon, my life in university is going to end too.

This is a real end that i wouldn't be attending classes like i used to do since in kinder garden.

I won't be seeing a lot of friends in the school, chit-chatting while waiting for lecturer or teacher to come to class.

I don't have to rush my reports and frustrated over lab works/report and i don't have chance to talk about all these with my friends. Like now, the first topic in our conversation is "how 's your dissertation going on?"

I won't have the chance to sit in the library for at least 10 hours a day just to cramp/stuck everything in my head and then vomit all out during examination.

I won't be able to hear about my friend's news/updates, we might lost contact ( I HOPE NOT, YOU GUYS BETTER KEEP IN TOUCH WITH ME, I AM SAYING THIS WITH TWO GUNS ON MY HANDS POINTING TOWARDS YOUR HEAD!HAHA)

No more stress from studies/exams as i always wish to, but when it comes, i really feel a bit reluctant to let go...how weird is this feeling? Do you guys feel the same too?

Turn the clock back to 2005, when i first enter University of Nottingham, everybody was new to me, everybody comes from different places of the world, everybody has their story(s). But, we build up the friendship throughout these four years day by day. I should say you guys are not only friends, you guys are my teachers as well, taught me something new in my life and making my university life a beautiful one!

I wonder what role had i played in you guys university's memories, but i hope that there is a tiny place saved for me ( other than being the cold jokes queen with my cold joke award). haha...

Hmph..Next week can consider as my last week in university, but am i enjoying my last week of university life to the max? I want to, but i have been tangled up by report-essay-report-essay.

But, i should say that i have no regrets for chosen pharmacy as my future career and I am happy that i chose University of Nottingham in Malaysia because there is where i get to know all of you! I will proudly say that first batch of 2+2 Pharmacy course at University of Nottingham is an AWESOME one! Do you guys agree with me? say YES! LOUDLY!LOUDER!!!Y E S!!!

I am far from my dream...

I have collected the essay today, surprisingly not 45% le! But, i know who marked it, is my FAVOURITE lecturer!

With some presses on my calculator, i realised that i am really far away from my dream.

Suddenly, my sister pop up in my mind saying her favourite phrase : " zhi zu chang le, ren sheng jiu hui geng kuai le - shiang" (actually i am the one who started to say this, but i have forgotten about it for long, i shall back to my original identity- happy-go-lucky - instead of worrying and asking too much, dreaming for something unachievable and give unnecessary pressure to myself.

SO, here I come! A cheerful girl again!!! =) together with my lame lame jokes.:p

"zhi zu chang le, ren sheng jiu hui geng kuai le"
