i finally decided to go to the japanese culture week at the chancellor hall today. i went there with irne (wassup erni...just in case you're reading this) Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a wild rush of small little aliens(primary school kids) running around the hall without even caring about who or what they going to bumped into...i managed  to avoid getting in close contacts with these little maniacs and made my way to the booth where  they said all the sushi would be...but dissapointed i was...the sushi was for display only...haiyaaa this people ah...its not healthy to be making tht kind of gossips...so in the end...pun pun sia ganya....

My bio test

Annyeong yorobeun!!!

   Firstly, I want to congratulate myself for finally have the strength to enter my first physical chem tutorial today…and thank god, I didn’t fell asleep…never really attend any of the tutorials and some of the lectures before but then didn’t I told you that the lecturer realized that I’m missing in action…even though he said that he didn’t care but then again…he was successful in making me feel bad about myself…so I decided to attend..i was kinda bluuurr at first but once I understand the method…I’m able to solve the question myself *shoulder pat* though a bit ketinggalan compared to the others..after tutorial, I went to physical chem class with the same lecturer off course. I didn’t really listened him much during the lecture because I was busy processing biological information into my brain (I have bio test at 4 PM)… after chem I went to my hangugoe suobi(korean class)…I love korean class. May be because sonsengnim is a very good teacher and very funny too…I try to get good grades for you sonsengnim…yaksuk (promise!)..aja..aja…hwaiting!!..

   After korean class, my tummy was already starting their ‘gambus’ session so I decided to shut them up with some food at the hostel’s café…thank god the lunch buffet was nice…then at 2 pm went to kcc activity with yumi…we had a singing activity..not much fun as last semester…and I wasn’t concentrating much coz I was studying my bio….

  At 3.45 pm went to bio lab..at 4 pm the test officially started…I was sooo nervous… my hands were sweaty, my throat was dry…and najib  was making this tapping sound on the bench and I hissed at him ‘bising eh’…then he said ‘ai…luan jua’ then we laughed… its not like I meant it wah najib…I would never do that to you najibah..oppss…najib..jangan mare!!!

   The test composed of 95 % MCQ question…only 2 short answer question…the MCQ was quite OK, I did manage to figure out the answer eventhough it was very coonfusing…my heart was still pounding very hard because I was waiting fo the difficult question to come. I answered the first question then the next then the next then next I leave out the short answer question for later and continued to answer the MCQ…

   When I’m finished, I returnd back to the short answer question.. it was asking something about thermocline and its effect on the net primary production in open seas…I stared at the word thermocline very hard that my head went dizzy…still no information came into my mind…I tried my best to remember what I learnt earlier which have the word thermocline but zero!!! So as a last resort, I decided to use my so-called high-rated common sense..

  Thermo-  have something to do with temperature, cline- is it decline or incline so it have to do with increase and decrease…open sea- primary producers are phytoplnton…ah hha!!!! So my answer was thermocline is the condition in which the temperature of the sea can decrease or increase which set up a current at the bottom of the ocean. This current rises up the surface bringing along with them an abundance of phytoplankton up the suface. On the surface, these phtoplankton are able to photosynthesize. As a result, net primary production increases…tadaa….

Notes: the answer above have been modified in term of language, word arrangement and grammar from the actual answer that I have written.why? because I wont allow my lousy answer during the test humiliate me as a person who study biology for half a decade.The real definition of thermocline- the rapid change of temperature of something-something…

 After reading and re-reading I was kindaaa satisfied with my answer( bah macam mana jua mun sudah ku nda dapat ingat)

Next question…..give 3 types of ecosystem which have high net primary prooduction *raise eyebrow*

Next question…give 2 types of ecosystem which have the lowest net primary production *raise 2^nd eyebrow

Next question….wait…there was no next question…I was confused…shocked…is this correct?

Is this the right question paper?

Maybe I missed a page or two *looked to the side at najibah* only 2 page…so it is correct…

is that the real question…I was like…biar banar soalannya ani? I flipped the paper upside down still I couldn’t find another question….It was easy x ah…I was expecting something very shocking macam the first semester test..but nooooo that was the question…i was like…aiiii ngalih ja ku mengkhatam buku reece & campbell..if ku tau…baca ja part dr lane pnya lecture…damnation!!! But nevertheless I was relieved that no heart stopping kind of question….i finished the test after 15 minutes..the next 15 min, all I did was double and re-double checking my answer then we were allowed to leave the lab…yahooo….abiz test….went back to hostel with yumi…panyap-panyap barang which I want to bring to gym…yes..we went to the gym today…ada dance fusion class..a must-enter class x ah…i like…then around 6’45 pm off we go to the mall fitness zone. Class started at 7.30 pm. We learnt new moves today and my fav was the sexy back dance..hoho..its been a long time since I feel sexy with my body…thanks jeff for the wonderfull class( jeff is the instructor)..

   After all that work kami ke pasar malam hem-hem paham-paham ja…di sana…there were a lot of korean tourist..pretty excited to see tthem….then we went back to hostel…after eating and chatting with yumi, went back to my room…and looked at the jam…its already 1 am..gosh time passed without we even knowing it…but never mind, my class is at 12 pm tommorow *yay*…

Annyeonghasaeyo everyone!!!

   The mid-semester break is officially over..macam inda terasa bah seminggu atu macam angin ja…but then again I had a good week…I had sufficient rest and sleep. Campus started today and my first class was my chem practical.well, I don’t call it practical, it was more of a lecture. The lecturer was blabbering about how to write reports, how to use data, explaining something about errors and yada yada yada….it was extremely boring during the lecturer-trying –to-do-his-job part but when he asked us to solve some calculation, I sprang back to life (hooo…exaggerating jua aku ah…)I sooo love calculation…during this session, it was proven that lecturers do make mistakes…I was trying to solve one of the calculation but my answer didn’t match the answer given by the lecturer..i doubled, no no no I triple-checked my answer and still end up with the same answer. Last-last, I went to discuss it with najib. As expected, he got the answer right (naïjib is very pandai in chem, I tell you...he is also my no.2 competitor, my no.1 competitor is jengjejeng…off course c  awangku (wassup awgku!). I checked c najib’s working tapi I don’t understand bah how he did it. We were debating for several minutes then ngalih-ngalih kmi bekelaie barutah lecturer atu mengubah answernya yang salah atu…actually my answer was right..aisyh…I sooo love my chem lecturer *sarcastic*  Nasib jau ia menukar awal-awal if inda tadi…sikit lagi kan marah my heart  hooooo…

   After chem (around 11.30 am), I had my beloved Korean class, I forgot to bring my Korean textbook (again!). I has to share with one of my classmates , neezah (gumapta chingu ya…) you are my savior of the day…before the class started, kim sonsengnim asked amanda and I to see her after class. I was immediately nervous..my heart was pumping very hard( its just a reflex action when someone wants to see you) I didn’t know the reason . I thought it was because I didn’t submit my last 2 exercises (lupa bah…) So, I picked up the courage to ask Amanda what’s it all about( I dont really talk with her much you see). Then she told me it was about the Korean scholarship that we applied to sonsengnim last semester *fuhh* lega my heart to the very…pikirtah pasal apa tadi…(sonsengnim, don’t do that again ah). After the class, sonsengnim asked if we were still interested for the scholarship. Amanda said ‘not sure’. I said I’m still interested and said it on behalf of yumi also. Sonsengnim also said that we will have to fly to korea this may (yay) and that the scholarship was a bit different from last year’s.  She will give us the details later on. She also told us that not so many people apply maybe because not so many people knew about it (bagus bagus) the lesser, the better. I just hope and prey that all of us will receive it…amen…*looked up the sky with cross fingers*

   Amm….what else…oh yes…yesterday (Sunday) I had my zone race which was organized by fitness zone. Rules of the race was almost the same like amazing race…we were given clues and have task to do before we are given the next clue, we also have to report to different station during the race to obtain the sticker to show that we have completed the task. It sounded very easy Kankan kan? Well, easy taie kuntut lah( please excuse me for my Bruneian vulgarity v(^o^)v). it was physically a tough race…extremely tough at least for me who jarangz-jarangz kan ke gym. The starting point of the race was at tasek lama hiking area.

The 1^st clue went something like this:

‘go around the tasek lama hills .Take the path leading to the sheraton hotel to get  your first sticker at the first station. Take your second clue’

  I have never been hiking at tasek lama before so I innocently thought

  ‘what the heck,  I don’t think it will be worse than climbing the 13 hills(or 12) of shahbandar’

  Ohhhh how I regretted to have think that way. The route was far worse in a million miles than any of the shahbandar hills…it was almost 90 % like hell (at least from my point of view..i don’t hike at lot you see). The hills just kept on goin and going as if it was endless. The more we climbed, the steeper it gets. My leg was woobly…I thought my knee-cap would just fell off… it was the worse of a situation. mY legs was shaking, I was totally out of breath, I was sweating like a pig, the mosquitoes was buzzing around my face ( it was as if the mosquitoes were saying: ‘hmmm…its not everyday we had pizza’) and worst of all, my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest and yelled ‘ damn you human…haven’t you had enough torturing me already? ( my first torture towards my heart was getting myself fat (or chubby as I would like to say ahakz) you may not know this but getting fat actually torture our heart because we are forcing our heart to pump more blood at a faster rate than normal. This is why, fat people have a faster heartbeat per minute (around 80 hb/min). Athlete’s heart beat can be as low as 58 or 60 hb/min because they are very fit. If you’re fat but your heart beat is 6o hb/min, then something is wrong with you mister …I know because my mom have it. Not serious though but better do a check-up just in case…uh oh..mimo..mimo…bio nerd alert!!! Just a small lecture…I sooo love being a teacher!!! *raised eyebrow*

  Back to my race story…I was on the edge of giving up but my sister kept saying ‘encouraging words’ like…

“ jangan putus asa den…mahal x ah ku bayar untuk mu for this race.$ 20 x ah…jangan macam-macam kan give up..”

   Yes…what an amazing encouragement from my most beloved sister. So  triied my best to drag my leg up the hill (very steep yo..i tell you) then we were finally going downhill and after few minutes of walking, we arrived at the first station. When we sampai, we were jumping happily and shouting like crazy.. the fitness zone staff were also cheering ( I love you guys). We got our second clue (yay)

2^nd clue:

   Go to jubli perak area where you will be doing some task. At the JP, tieyour shoelaces together with your other teammates and go around the jublic perak for one round . Then take your 3^rd clue and sticker.

   So, off we go, running + walking our way to jubli perak…we can see other team in front of us but not at the back. Obviously, we were the last team. On the way to JP, we were like four little GREEN chicken running all over the place…crossing the streets and all that…when I think back, it was pretty funny…

   When we arrived at JP, we immediately tied our shoelaces together…and tried to walk around the tugu…I thought it was easy but noooo it was not because we were doing it 4 person instead of two. We decided to take a small step a time…practically, we were walking like crabs holding a side way grill…we laughed all the way up to the finish line. When we finish the game, I had problem untying my shoelace with my sister’s  because the ikatan I made was ‘ikat mati’ ( what a clever brain I have). We did everything but still It wont untie itself…then, liza, my other teammate came to the rescue, she asked me to take off my shoe (and I did) and she pulled hard and *plop* my shoelace te-putus (wow, cool strength liza…I want) I tried doing that earlier actually but my effort was fruitless….the FZ staff were cheering and shouted ‘ go girl yeah’ and ‘girl power, never give up’..bah…kami apa lagi..makin tah kami besemangat…kami pun cheered macam orang gila

Our 3^rd clue:

Go to the mall.find a participating store which have the zone race logo. Purchase an item which cost exactly $5 and secure a receipt. Go to the branch of fitness zone on the second floor and obtained your sticker.Do not forget  your next clue

  When I read the clue I was shocked…from jubli perak to the mall…on foot? Gila…jauh x ah but what to do I don’t my sister saying her so-called encouragement words again. So off we go again to the mall…we have to pass kiulap and went to the big roundabout. Thanks to the traffic police we were able to cross the roundabout safely. On our way to the mall, we saw other participating team were on their way to the kiulap fitness zone…then I knew where’s the last destination would be…

  We arrived at the mall and searched the stores…it was kinda easy because most of the shops were still closed as it was still early in the morning(around 8.45 am) so we just have to find shops which open earlier than usual (smart eh?). the lucky shop was a mobile shop and we bought a crystal casing. We rushed upstairs to get our sticker and clue.

 The 4^th clue:

 Go to the gadong market. Get  1 kg of banana and 1.somethin-somethin  litre of coke. Complete the task given to get your next clue and sticker.( I don’t really remember what the clue actually says)

  So we enthusiastically ran to the gadong market. Why? Because we saw some teams still stuck at the mall cause they couldn’t find the clue. We ran to the 1^st floor of the market, that’s where they sell the fruits and stuff, we saw the FZ staff waiting for us together with 2 ‘sisir’ of banana and 1 big bottle of coke. The task was to finish eating both of the item…gila x durang atu..banyak x ah banana ah kan di makan…aku gi inda suka makan pisang but again what to do? I just gobble up as many as I could (from that moment on, I officially black-listed banana from my diet) and drank 2 cups of coke.gosh, banana and coke does not mix well ladies and gentlemen, I tell you…

    Our 5^th clue:

Go to kiulap fitness zone and complete the obstacle which are ready for you

So, we rushed off to kiulap but with all that banana and coke inside your belly, running is not the best choice. So, we walked and chatted and laughed all the way. we had fun actually apart from getting sunburn because of the extreme heat. Upon arriving at the kiulap FZ, the obstacle was to run a series of tyres, crawlin(which was very sakit cause the road they’re using was rocky road not tarred-road) and finally the wheelbarrow game in which you have to hold your teammate’s leg and push your teammate like a whellbarrow,,,the teammates can only move with her two hands forward…It was damn difficult especially if you’re the one who is the wheel barrow.i’ve seen many do it before never thought it was very difficult…my respect to those who can do it fast…because I just cant do it..but I did managed to finish it(yay) then we ran along the road toward s the finishing line, holding hands and shouting like crazy people….the staff were also cheering loudly…it was a belly-warming moment especially when one of the staff said ‘ this is the best part of the race’ and indeed It was the best part…I have to agree. All the pain, muscle cramps and lots lots and lots of sweat, it was all worth it. I don’t care if we didn’t win anything (actually liza won a full body massage at the spa zone from her lucky draw). What’s most important is tHAT we all had fun. Then after all the other team arrived ( we were not the last team, thank god) we fatten ourselves again with a good meal. Before I stop, I just want to apologized from the bottom of my heart to the person who gave the idea that we should go around the tasek lama hill because during my hard time going up the hill, I continuously cursing this person until we actually arrived at the 1^st station…I’m truly sorry…when a hard time hits you..you just automatically became a cursing per son *ehekz*…last but not least, to fitness zone, thank you for the painful but worth-having experience

Gumapsemnida

Notes: all the clues used in this blog is only part or the meaning of the actual clue given during the race because I just couldn’t remember exactly what the clue said. Just want to give you guys a rough idea of what the clue was like…

   Wassup guys? Firstly I just wanna apologized for the lack of updates.i’ve been quite busy lately..goin to the gym and stuff…I didn’t have the time to even  open my lappy…right…the reason for my updates this time is to declare something…I’m sure that you guys already know that i like someone now..someone who is very cute (at least from my point of view) but lately I’ve been receiving information about him from my so-called spy at UBD that he’s actually pretty popular amongst girls (and may be guys too)…I realized that earlier off course, some of my girl-friends also had a crush on him but hey you can’t blame us…he’s cute…then I suddenly realize that there’s too many competition…I don’t like it…so I decided to…hmmm…how to say? I decided to bury my feelings for him…I don’t like competition when boys are concerned…if you want to compete in biology..mana saja but boys….pikir dua kali dulu…lagipun he’s not the only boy in UBD, I’m sure I can find someone else (can I?)..lagipun,,, if I were to compete for him, maaaay beee I’m the first one to lose..why? simple…I’m not pretty…I’m no one…I’m not that good with boys…and yada yada yada…..ah…I don’t want to think about it anymore…lets just concentrate on myself…and my life…  

  I ‘ve been goin to the gym lately (fitness zone)…I got 14 days free to use the gym and follow their classes and you know what? I’m kinda addicted to follow the classes because they are soooo fun…my favourites are dance fusion, body jam, hi-lo and kick boxing…and yes most of the classes that I’ve join are dancing classes…I just love dancing…the songs are nice eventhough they are old songs but I enjoyed dancing with it..the instructor is also nice and he dances very well (damn, I want to dance like him)..yesterday, I brought yumi with me to join the kick boxing and dance fusion classes…she kinda liked it…so we decided that we’re goin to enter body jam classes today but unfortunately we missed it(damn the traffic jams)…you must be wondering how the heck yumi is allowed to join…well actually, my sis was given  a lot of free tickets which allow you to bring a friend along to use the gym for one day(fuhhh) soo  yumi uses that ticket but since we have a lot of that ticket I guess she can come to the gym everyday…actually I was giving the tickets out for everyone before the mid-semester break but no one was interested soo its their lost…one ticket cost $20 kali ah…mahal tu…mana tau baik nasib bleh jumpa si wu chun…wahaha…I’ve seen him once only..my spy told me he’s goin to be in brunei this march…I don’t know if its true but what the heck…I’m not a fan of wu chun…

  Today is Thursday…ahhh…Saturday is lusa rupanya…*sigh* presentation english lagi nie…we have an english presentation on this Saturday…yes I know..it is during the break…how lame is that? I’m presenting about HIV/ AIDs… I love HIV…its easy to explain and  understand but I haven’t finish my slides yet( uh-oh, damnation!!!) antam saja lah….i just do my best saja nanti…hope everyone can enjoy my so called ‘teaching’… I’m not nervous now but I have a bad feeling that I’m goin to be super nervous when the presentation time comes…may be because there are sooo many good presenter in the group but what the heck…I just do my best…

   I have a gossip that I want to share  but  I’m not so sure if I should spill it out…well its up to you if you can understand what I’ goin to say…yesterday when yumi and I was in the gym, I saw a very familiar face…he’s a UBD lecturer..he’s chinese and he’s super-HOT(can you grab who I’m talking about?)..yes…that lecturer..i’m not goin to tell which lecturer he is, its too obvious if I tell you but hey just think there is only one hot lecturer in FOS…you know….back to the story…both of us was kinda excited, we both have a super crush on him…so we used the treadmill beside him but unfortunately after a few seconds he finished using the treadmill and left. I think he recognized yumi because she was his student last semester (boy…what a teacher,he didn’t even smile at us).so we kinda dissapointed when he left..then we forgot about him…after we finished our classes we went to the foodcourt  to eat( imagine that…after all that hard work we decided to fatten ourselve again…especially me..) while we were waiting for our food…we saw him(the lecturer) again and this time he’s not alone…he’s with a girl(oOo)..we were not sure if she ‘s his girlfriend and things like that, they were not holding hands, the guy was walking faster than the girl(he was practically leaving her behind) but every now and then he waited for her, sometimes they walk shoulder by shoulder , sometimes he was walking faster than her and the poor girl had to walk faster to catch up with him..the way their body interacts makes me really confused ( I can runderstand a little body language you know)..so we were not sure if she was his girlfirend but nevertheless, seeing him with a another girl, we felt very frustrated….if you listen carefully at that very momet you can almost hear our hearts breaking…cheeewahh…..*hancur hati ku…mengenang dikau* muehehehe….geli-geliman lah I…no lah…we were not that serious…its just very shocking to see him with a girl that’s all…

In one of the sentences above I’ve used the word ‘lappy’ which refers to my laptop right…there’s a story to this word actually….once upon a time ago..i didn’t know what the word lappy means so one day one of my friend said, ‘oh bulls….i forgot to bring my lappy’ then I replied suddently ‘ huh? You got a dog?’ v(^o^)v..my friend was giving me that sort of look as if she had seen a pig fly…I looked at her with my twinkling innocent eyes…then she knew that I didn’t know what lappy meant….how lame is that…my mind developes slowly when sociality( is that a word?) is concerned? i guess MTV didn’t have any effects on me..

Hm…what else? Guess that all for now…annyeong…

<----  cute ladies at coffee zone  weheeeee

<----hmmm...nyamannye....


<---- i look stupid...

 <---- then we're  just dun wat to do

Annyeonghaseyo!!!

    Ohmo..Ohmo…its been 2 days since the last time I wrote something…well, I’ve been busy with buying my dorm’s things and stuff..well guess what  I’m already staying at the dorm…kinda sucks and bored..no internet and stuff…the only thing I do is watched some dvds…aha….talking about dvds…I watched the movie 2 nites ago wif my sis..it’s called the ‘unrest’.its an engllish movie about if you disturbed the dead and then their soull will become unrest until you buried their body into the ground well something like that…if I wnt to rate this movie..i will give it 2 out of 10…why?well off course the answr is that the story is  boring and I hate the main actress.she sucks big time…this movie was sopposed to be a horror movie but the actress just didn’t know how to carry out the character or simply she just cant act…there was a scene in the movie which makes me disguted with a capital D…at which the actress was being flirtatious with the male actor…I really hated that part that I said the word ‘come on’ outloud inside the theater(I heard some people laughing)…but seriously…it sucks…there was several fliirtatious act actually in the movie but I thought the actress was possessed by a whore spirit or something(the whore spirit was related somewhere in the movie) In the end there was nothing about the spirit…no ghost was seen just some people chanting and some glass breaking..owh sooo boring….my $8 was not worth it that nite…I was awfully dissapointed….i actually waited 2 hours to see that movie..hah…so much for my waiting….

 <----i dont recommend you to watch it

        I came back to the dorm this evening…i bought a lot of stuff and I regretted that…I almost broke my back just to carry them back into my room which is only on the 1^st floor…thank god…then I arrange my stuff and ate something when I’m hungry…and then I watched a korean horror movie…it is called ‘someone behind you’…ratings: I give 6 out of 10…the movie is about some curse which makes someone close to you kill you (I’m not sure if my sentences is right..but I don’t care)…it was an ok movie…not too suspense and again no ghost.its about a girl who watches her aunt kills her another aunt.her aunt was actually cursed by that time,then it was her turn to be cursed so anyone who is closed to her or someone who is related to her somehow like teacher and classmates wants to murder her.from my understanding those who wants to kill her always have a reason to kill her mostly because of jealousy….and yada yada yada…
<----i love both of the guys...the taller one acts in the movie called 'classic and  the shorter one in 'my tutor friend ii'...

     The new semester starts tommorow and I have my chem class on 8 am…ahhh…I hope they not starting right away…*yawn*…I’m getting sleepy..guess that’s all….
