Are you Happy? Yes!

I feel so happy today!
Realized that I am a successful and happy person could be... =)
I am very grateful...

Thank you to Brother Teoh who reminded me about this through his Dharma Talk.
Thank you to my parents and ancestors who pass down all conditions and lessons to me.
Thank you to all my teachers for guiding me all the way, keeping me safe.
Thank you to all my friends for their sincere supports and companions.
Thank you to all beings for their presence.
May my parents, ancestors, teachers, friends, brother Teoh, and all beings be well and happy always! Rejoice, Rejoice, Rejoice! =)

I never know what the future will bring, but for now, I'm not shy to put up my hand and say,

"Yes! I am happy." =)

Romeo, save me... la la la... =)

Had a Mingle-Mingle with MUPhaS the other day...
I like it, especially the chicken Dance! =)))))

 are you ready to dance? =D

Speaking about dance, I feel so 'fairy-tale' kinds of things running through my mind, so I present you 'Love Story' by Taylor Swift which keeps on worming in my brain... (please let it only have connotative meaning, I can't imagine if it's for real... xD) Have a good dance! =)

It's easily done than said

Ajahn Brahm said,
"It's easily done than said."
It's the new principle of life that I try to put into practice, especially when dealing with laborious work and assignments.

To be honest, I love lamenting about how hard and how difficult the tasks/lab-reports/essay/ given to me.

Scary but true, as I keep on blubbering of how hard and difficult they might be, the more hard and difficult it seems to be.

What an insight! Therefore, "It's easily done than said!" Just do it! =)

Finally the weekend come after the first week at Monash! =))))))))))))
Okay just summarized all the events here..... =D


CNY's Nite & CNY - Cooks, Treats and Sharing Nite! =)
It's too bad that I couldn't be with my family during CNY's eve and CNY day itself...but I must say that I had a pretty good time! =) Lucy and I were so eager to cook dinner ourself... =) We tried this and that... put this and that... and here you go some cookings that we made:

 
the healthy brown, red, and black rice! =)

 
Orak-arik with Oyster sauce: French beans + eggs


Lucy cooked this very well, just like at restaurants, the flavour was so keen on the tounge! =P 

 Vegetable soup with chicken stock
 Oh! Don't forget the garnish! =)))

some fruits: oranges from our boss, and bananas that we bought at Jusco =D
  
  so Here are our big dinner! We ate untill we couldn't take them anymore... 

Also, we went to IKEA with our boss, it's a very kind of him taking us around buying things, sharing with us... =) and the next day he took us to Thai-Thai Restaurant at Pyramid and treated us dinner! Thank you!!! =DD
We wished you a happy wedding to come!! =PPP
  
Sharing Nites with Lucy, because I didn't feel comfortable staying alone at my unit (coz everyone was away for CNY holiday), I stayed over nights at Lucy's room... =) We did share many things, about perspectives in life, parents, our study, Job prospectives, beliefs and faith, friendship, romances, family, and many other... =)
Thank you Lucy for really being there for me, until now... =) I'll always treasure it... ^^



16th-18th Feb 2010 - Penang trip, meeting the whole family! =)
Our family had a CNY trip to Singapore and Penang... Since, my visa was still in the process I only could join to Penang third on the third day of CNY... =)
A very well said and expressed by my sister, "It's always nice having family gathering. never mind the occassion; never mind the food; never mind the destinations; never even mind the journey; it's the being with each other - the kind of familiar warmth, comfort and care that never fails to make me feel much more secured and a little bit more carefree than usual. You know, like the way an old piece of blanket might do to your coldness."
Singapore, Bukit apa c lupa namany.... heheh... =P
Happy CNYtiger year!! =)

22nd-23rd Feb 2010 - the 1st 2 days of Orientation at Monash University Sunway Campus
Just like all orientation, there are registration, welcoming speeches, explanations bout the uni and its' facilities, and so on... I knew no one when I came, luckily I met Makarios, my junior at CIMP, he's doing engineering now... =) also Merlin taking biotechnology, Feilina, Peter taking business... =) and of course, I made new friends..
The next day, we were separated by the faculty. As the only international student from this faculty, I seriosly knew no one at the Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science... but luckily, I managed to get everyone's names, the 44 of them at our batch (except one name, I didn't knew) in a such quite short of time... the 'ke-po' side of me really came in hand! =)))


24th-26th Feb - The Transition Camp at Port Dickson
This Transition Camp is compulsary for all faculties under the School of Medicine and Health Sciences. MBBS (the medical students) made the majority of the participants of the camp. I think there were 10 groups of them in which 1 group can consist of up to 12-14 students... Pharmacy students are divided into 4 groups. While Psychology only 1 group I suppose...

The transition Camp was fun! We had telematch, jungle-trekking, many games, many talks, and performance nite too! =) Medicine students were awesome! =) also MUMEDS (Monash University Medicos Society) members and our seniors were so adorable! =P

 
P2 - James, Devi, Madeline, Amie, Kah Sing, Yen Yee, Kokiela, Syn Tiea, Amanda, Mathana, Wei Chern, our seniors: Zheng, Jo Anne, and Jeng Nee... =)


Smile guys!!! Say: "Pharmacyyyyy...." *Blitz* =)
