1st of September: my first day in UPSI

Wake up wake up!
3am in the morning i was waken by my cellphone. I was dreaming about myself investigating onbsome wesen as I was a grim(currently watching and obsessed with: Grimm) Lol...

Slept for four hours then getting up preparing for the journey to my new chapter. I depart at 4:30am with my parents. Car full loaded with my stuff. My session for registration was actually 10:30am but we arrived too early at 8:12am LOL...but arrive early is better than arrive late cuz i can finish up all this registration thibgs earlier and settle down and have rest.

Well, Jes is my roommate. We live in Khar at the new campus, campus Sultan Azlan Shah of UPSI. Lets talk about the campus...well its new, the room is big but the toilet is super small, omg. Everyroom is equipped with 2 beds 2 table 2 wall rack 2 cupboard. There are three room for two in each house and 2 toilet with shower and a corner for us to do some laundry and two basin. It can be said tat it was well equipped and we have a washing machine, a dryer equipped, juss toss in few coins then you can do your laundry.

Jes and I are taking the same course which is great! We are having a pleasant time =)

10:30am I registered in Khar and start moving my things to my hostel. That kills me! Parents' car are not allowed to go in!!(wth) so me, papa, and mami have to lift my stuff from the carpark to the hostel and climb 3 floors stairs. My dad almost pass out so as we...omg...many parents are in the same condition. The authorities shouldn't do it like this. They are worried about traffic jams but not the condition of the students and their parents or guardian etc. Many are old people you know and have to lift heavy good from the carpark to hostel which i believe is a few hundrdd metres far depend on where u park your car and how unlucky u are.. haiz....

Currently I am standing and waiting for bus to take us to Dewan besar, two bus is going to take few hundreds students I can barely feel my legs. OMG it was so painful to stand stand stand and walk walk walk and barely have time to sit down and rest...phew...I'm dying and thats good cuz i will sleep like a dead tonight, no more sleeping problems on new bed!

I hope tomorrow will be better

Peach!! Yum yum...

New Journey!!

Happy Holiday!! No work tomorrow!! Hooray!!

By the way... already weeks after my last post here...
I've been kinda busy working on my 'Slimming' Project *teehee>.< and preparing to enroll in University.
I will be studying in Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, UPSI on 1st of September. 
What course I'm taking? Teaching English as Second Language(TESL)
Its my first choice of course when I fill in the UPU form.
Feel nervous and lack of confidence. Why? Because My English is only at average level. And I haven't speak in English for MONTHS. And I never Read since high school. My Vocab are Oh My Goodnessly poor. And don't talk to me about grammar...*running away with tears...

Then why choose English? I always like to use English more than Mandarin, but my Mandarin is better than English(of course lah! Using it more maah) Actually I want to study about Foreign Language>.<. But I didn't get the offer by UPM(pointer not high enough =( ) I want to learn about English more, their history, their morphology, their formation, many more!! So, TRY HARD(not try best) to catch up with the PRO~ 

In the past few weeks I went to banks to create accounts, apply for loans, scolarships etc, takes photos, and bought my first Baju Kurung! Its a traditional Malay attire. Its consider formal wear here in Malaysia. Long Long dress, gotta learn how to walk like a lady or not I will step on myself~!

I'm excited as well as worried. UPSI is a univesity located at Tg Malim,Perak. As I know, there aren't places for entertainment there like what we have in Penang. NO cinemas!! NO mall!!! It will be hard for me >.<....I like to enjoy luxurious afternoon once in a while, watch hit movies on screen, and shopping! Well...Kuala Lumpur is not far away though, 70-80km far away... I can hoop on a bus or train and get into the city!! This comfort me...huhu~~

Tanjong Malim, a new place for me...how is the food there?how is the enviroment?how are the people there?hmmm....

The view of my journey is still so blur now. No clue yet what will I be studying or doing in there, cuz campus cife is totally different? I hope I can get the timetable faster, and gather more info about the hostels, surroundings, utilities there....*damn anxious

Woola!! At last I manage to get into University, Good Job to myself =D
Can't wait untill everything is settled!! >.<

PS: Mr M will be going to UTeM, Malacca, haiz...we will be far apart...*sobs, btw, I'm 46kg now, 3 kgs lighter than before!! and many of my pants and clothes are big to me now...*teehee

MEdSI

Well, I'm called to sit in an exam- Malaysian Educators Selection Inventory (MEdSI) on 11-May-13, at a university located in Tanjong Malim, Perak, University Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI).
When I received the SMS I was like:"OH! MY!its tomorrow!!" (I get the SMS on 10-May-2013 morning)
OMG, formal outfit required! I don't have ANY, seek help from my friends, cousins, at last I manage to borrow one from my cousin, Penny.

Walao, tomorrow morning 8.30am have to reach there.
Okay, the time needed from Balik Pulau to Tanjong Malim is 3 hours.
So, me and my family have to wake up very very early (4.00am).
But the next morning, we are late! we suppose to depart on 4.30am but we depart at about 45 minutes later.
Rush Rush Rush!
Luckily there were few cars on the road so my dad can drive very fast.(dangerous)
Straight to Perak! We stopped at Tapah rest station so we can go to the restroom. The restroom was miles(actually is metres) away if you stopped ur car near the entrance. ADVICE: stop at the carpark near the petrol station cuz the restrooms located there.
Then Straight to UPSI!!

Phew reach there on time, it seems like there was no registration required so I just found the class I will take exam in it then wait outside. Because I am alone there, I met two cute girls.
Nur Ain from Taiping and Jess from Puchong.  Nur Ain is a Malay and Jess is an Indian. Jess's name was long and hard to pronouce so she ask us to call her Jess, which is part of her name. hehe!
Nur Ain talk softly and was very kind hearted and cute with many little flowers on her Baju Kurung. I think she is a good friend to be because she will wear DIY Brooch by her friends although it looks like an art piece by beginner.
Jess have curly hair and look like a professional LOL, but she is nice and friendly. She has a protective brother who follow her to the exam centre and escort her till the exam room. We are like good friends although we met each other the first time. Too bad we never leave any contact details not even facebook after the exam.

The exam was a series of question testing your personality, field of interest, EQ and blaah...300 questions to be answered in 1 hour 10 minutes. It was all computerized. Just went in the room, find a seat and follow the instructions of the examiner then start answering. click* click* click*
I finished it in a bout 30 minutes. HAHAHAHA

Its still morning! but I'm hungry. Dad and Mom took me to Bidor, Perak to have our brunch.
After you leave the highway and reach Bidor town, just not far from the entrance. You will see KFC on your left and a hawker centre on your right. if not mistaken 美食华海鲜 or 美丽华海鲜 something like that.
The  Wan Tan Mee there was so NICE!!! its WAN TAN was delicious! Must Try!!

After the brunch then we went straight back home, and reach home at 3 or 4 pm then straight to the bed. I slept till 6pm smth and forgot to ate dinner LOL.

Now only waiting for the result of the exam. Kinda look forward. NYA!
