Blood Test

I did a blood test 2 weeks back right after the day I finished my final exam. It was my second time to get involved in a blood test. Fortunately everything went thru very well as it supposed to be. One week after, I received a call from the lab, asking me to collect the report at their PJ branch, where was the place I did my blood test. Instead of having no better transportation of getting there, I asked their staff to send the report to their Ipoh branch, so that I can drive from my hometown to collect it.

Yes...the report arrived on yesterday. Today, I went down to Ipoh to collect it. I was having a hard time to find their lab since the road was so busy on 1p.m., when workers are going out to have their lunch. I stopped in front of Hotel Grand View, and rang their phone. Luckily it was just further down the road; I took a U-turn, and drove further down the busy road. I looked around and found a parking lot opposite of the lab.

During the explanation by the consultant, she told me that for those sections which were highlighted; they were those which I need to pay attention to. I was so afraid while she turned a page to another; I scanned for highlights on every new page instead of looking on the figures written. I got one highlighted section only, which was Hepatitis B antibody, too bad they didn't find any antibody in my blood cell. Other than that, everything is fine. I was asked to receive the first injection of Hepatitis B antibody for the first month, and second injection after one month interval, and another after 5 months interval. Anyway, I felt that I have to discuss with my parents first, because my parents are receiving such 'treatment' as well, and it's available within my hometown as well. Therefore I don't think that's necessary for me to get the injection in Ipoh. After some planning, I planned to get my first injection on the end of this month before I go back to Sunway, the second injection during my holiday, and the third injection after my 3rd semester of CIMP. Hopefully everything would be fine...hehe..

Alright guys, it's 2.23a.m. now, it's time for bed now...See ya guys^^

Pre-U Graduation

Yeah...one year of effort....finally I was able to be one of the graduates of 34th CIMP Graduation Ceremony, which was held 2 days ago...6th June 2008.

On Thursday night, I took out everything that I’ll be wearing on Friday include shirts, pants, socks, shoes and tie...I had also re-ironed my shirt and pant since they looked somehow messy. Other than that, I practiced on how to tie up my tie properly, I had never touched a tie since I graduated from high school, which was more than one year ago. Thank God I still remembered how to tie it up properly with a pleasing symmetry.

I know I can’t be late to such important ceremony in my life, there was 3 alarms in my little room, include my phone, clock, which are beside my bed usually, and my laptop on my desk, which I usually have to wake up to shut it up. Yeah...I woke up 'successfully' because I slept on 2.30a.m. Night before and I had only four and a half hours more to sleep until 7 a.m.. Shut all of them up, and I went for a shower. Put on all my clothes and styled up my hair. Before I went out from my room, I took photos on myself from different angles to check if i looked neat and alright. I called a cab and I go down stairs to wait for it. I arrived at school around 8.15a.m., I went to the cafeteria to meet my friend and I got myself a chicken sandwich. Right after we finished our breakfast, we went to 4th floor to collect our academic gown. Out of my mind, it was so crowded while almost 50 people crammed into a small little room. Luckily there was air-cond inside the room. I put on my academic gown but I had no idea on how to put it on properly so that it looks cool. The gown company's staff which I believed was a photographer helped me out with that. After we settled down, we went into auditorium for a briefing on the progression of the ceremony includes our seating area and standing spot when we are up on the stage.

The ceremony started with graduates walking into the hall, I was the 4th last graduates to walk into the hall since my name started with "Y". There were hundreds pair of eye welcoming us with smiles and I believed every graduated include myself were being honoured. I sat on the last row of reserved seats. The ceremony was then continued with speeches by the VIPs. After speeches, our moments began. The souvenir giving session began with students who achieved average mark of >90s, >80s, and the rest. Same thing, I was also the 4th last graduates to go up the stage. The hall was full of claps and cheers. Camera was flashing on every of our joyful and cheerful moments. When my moment started, I can’t hear anything around me because I was too nervous and I was trying to conceal my nervousness by smiling pleasantly. Thankfully I was doing fine, went back to my seat and our moments ended smoothly. The ceremony was then continued with speech by Valedictorian, SuYin, and closing speech by our Program Director. After their speech, the ceremony was officially ended and VIPs were passing by and walked out from the hall. All of the graduates were having group photo on the stage. After that, we collected our transcript and having photo session with friends around the hall. Half an hour after, we returned our gown and collect our deposit. I had my lunch with my friends at restaurant nearby and then I went back to my house.

Here's some pics...

Although I had graduated, I’ll still stay in CIMP to do my 3rd semester, because my average mark wasn’t enough to get into Monash U. Anyway, this ceremony really meant a lot to me, it was my first time attending graduation ceremony and it was my first time being one of the graduates too. Alright guys...that's all from me...shall go now....Bye^^

Back on Gym training

Yeah...just came back from California Fitness centre, I felt sooooo damn good after away from training for 2 weeks due to exam, sick, monkey business blablabla....I lost my weight due to sickness, and my muscle had already almost invisible. As usual, I spent one hour in the gym and tried to push myself to the limit, I focused on biceps triceps, shoulder, and chest of course. Sunway Pyramid was so damn crowded, but out of my mind the gym centre was still okay, at least I don’t need to queue to use those machines.

After my gym training, instead of going to the crowded KFC, I went to the KFC beside Sunway Pyramid and take away a 'dinner-plate'. I took a taxi came back since I was so lazy to walk. I had fed up with the damn guard in my residential area. Every time, the same person, the same procedure, the same question, the same action, the same damn attitude, and the same shitty experience. Both of the guards tend to ask for my house number, street number even though they asked me day before. I doubted they're having Alzheimer in which people can’t memorise things well when they're old, but they're young...I just don’t know WTH is wrong with them...perhaps somebody will screw them up someday.

I'll be going to Bangsar again tomorrow...hopefully KLIFA do opens tomorrow.....Shall go now...Bye! :)

How 'The Way I Are' today

Yeah!!Finally my final exam had over. It's a little too late to cheer for it since it ended on last Wednesday. Why..? I had been a sick cat for 2 times in these few days. I didn't study for my last paper (Calculus), and I believed that I screwed it up badly...Seriously badly!! My marks is low enough for normal tests, and some more I screwed this final exam up, don't know if I can get a pass for this. During the day before the exam, I didn't study for it at all although I planned to revise all of them. I can't even wake up from the bed due to excessively headache for 4 days until yesterday. It happened to me most probably because I didn't sleep on Monday morning and went for the exam straight away until 4.30pm afternoon. I will not ever wanna try that kind of 'iron man act' anymore in my entire life, such act is really killing and it had nearly killed me. Again, graduation is on 6th June, hopefully I won't receive any call from my program claiming that I can't graduate due to my failed calculus...God Bless.

Anyway, I'm all fine now, just came back after spending half of my day outside. Initially, what I planned would be going to Bangsar to ask for piloting course, and then shop around with friend at mid-valley. Unfortunately, things didn't turn into what I had expected. I went to the school to meet my friend at 10a.m., we went to have breakfast at Orange, and took a taxi to KTM Subang Jaya. My friend (an indo) and I had never take a KTM before, so we decided to try something different this time since all we had was the time. So we reached the KTM Station Subang Jaya, it was lousier than what I expected before this. It was nothing much different with my hometown's little station, maybe just much more crowded, and lively. We bought the tickets and went over to the opposite platform in order to go to KL Sentral. Luckily, under the hot sun, the train came within 5 minutes, we hop into it, the doors closed...and I started my 1st journey with KTM. First impression was good...as we had passed several stations, the train stopped in the middle of the track, and I prayed I won't be one of the 'victims', which we saw in the newspaper, the train pulled over and the passenger gonna walk on the track to the nearest station. Luckily, a quick report from the driver came to us within 1-2 minutes; it was just because of their traffic arrangement. The aircond is not as cold as LRT and the rest was fine for me except the damn scenery which was just that damn grass. We reached KL Sentral 45 minutes later, went down to ground floor, and bought the taxi ticket to Menara Mutiara Bangsar which is the place where I wanted to go to. When we reached there, I found that the Menara was more than quiet, seemed not operated for years, we don't care and took the life to 9th floor, and looked for KLIFA (KL International Flying Academy). The 9h floor was pretty calm also, it was kind of apartment building and nobody walked around on the pathway. The door of KLIFA was closed and nobody answered the door bell. Too bad, all I can do was went down disappointingly and went to Mid-Valley. What I learnt from this was give a call to them before I take off to reach them...Damn! :(

Actually this would be the 5th time I went to Mid-Valley and 1st time went to The Gardens. First I went to the California Fitness centre in Mid-Valley. Basically I just wanted to compare between both Sunway and Mid-Valley centre. Mid-Valley seemed to have better cable facilities, changing room, a swimming pool. While Sunway has better free-weight training section and newer machines and facilities since it was newly opened. Besides, I thought to get some new shirts and a new backpack since my schoolbag had worn out badly. I'm kind of a perfectionist while I'm buying clothes..or picky. I won't buy it if I'm not satisfied by it. My favourite brands are PDI-A, SEED, G2000, Sports wears and some other affordable brand. I went into every apparel shops in Mid-Valley and The Gardens, include those sell a jeans and RM2000. I went with nothing on my hands, and I came back with nothing as well. Sounds funny...LoL...Other than that, we went for a movie "Indiana Jones". I won't be doing a review for this movie, as my movie reviewing skills are sux to the limit...you can't get the actual story line, but my very owned 'story line'. Anyway, it was a nice movie if you like the history of Egypt's. After the movie, we had our dinner at Burger King and 'finalize' our shops. We sat beside the South Entrance of Mid-Valley in front of Doom cafe, try to think of what shall we do...haha...was being nonsense because we all had nothing to do even if we go back. However, the air of Selangor isn't so nice for excessively 'deep-breathing'..LoL. Instead of the costly Taxi, we walked to the nearest bus station and took Rapid KL back to Sunway Pyramid. I bought some snacks for the rest of the week and we came back.

My friend decided to go to Bangsar and ask for it once again, and I'm going as well. God bless it can be done on Monday. Although I didn't get anything by today other than walking around, I felt it was a very right alternative lifestyle of spending my 'pointless' time, it's tiring and now I already got to have a nice sleep. Ciao ya guys…^^
