I decided to be a little productive today rather than siting down watching my drama. Currently watching, Cruel Romance starred by Huang Xiao Ming (China's heartthrob) and Joe Chen Qiao En. A storyline about the mafia who falls in love with a simple, country girl with dangers lurking around them at all time. I'm at episode 32 just past the moment when Zuo Zhen was being accused for killing his sifu and went through lots of beatings just to earn a living with Jin Xiu. That episode watch really hen xin tong.
Since I have so much of unpublished drafts, I shall comply them and publish them all today. They are all my unfinished work. Probably at that time I was too tired, too lazy or simply just the contents are too short to be publish. This particular one was written on 25 July 2014.
"And today 25 of July, I dreamt of Dad. He was packing for his holiday. He was smiling at me while packing his luagage. Going for Spain (I think) wih his best friend. He was complaining his trousers are tight. He went to change minutes before entering the cab to bring them to the airport. He even has the same luggage as his best friend. The hard cover luagage, purple in color. While I was helping loading the luagage intp the car, it somehow scratches with the car door and there's a hole. With a sad face, I was finding for him in the house to inform him. Perhaps finding another luagage for him. I spotted another luagage. The one I carry always. Then I woke up."
I remember this one. I woke up feeling that the dream was so real, that the clumsy me had somehow disappoint my dad. He was excited for his holiday trip before I accidentally scratch his luggage. I don't know how others cope when their loved ones depart but I do occasionally dreamt of Dad. I can't say I don't believe the afterlife but if there is no afterlife, then where do Daddy goes? Chinese do burnt hell money, houses, cars etc for the departed ones. Yes, I do questioned how does they receive them? Does a house suddenly drop from their sky down on the ground? You may not understand but I assume wherever they are, they do also have grounds and skies like us.
This one was probably written when I searched for dogs from the advertisements. Can't recall anything but from the content, I might just browsed through too much advertisements on Dogo Argentino puppies for sale. It was drafted on 21/08/2014.
"Dogs like Dogo Arginto and Fila Brasileiro. What is the purpose of people keeping these huntress dog in the neighborhood surrounded by kids. I don't see it serve as a purpose of hunting. Surely if you need a guard dog, one can always opt for tamer breeds like German Shephard or Rotwiller. If you stay in a sub urban area like near the forest or somewhere where wild bears are often spotted, I might see the purpose of the breed. But don't you think a Dogo in a over populated area is not suit. I would freak out if there's a dogo in my neighbourhood. Who knows when the dog would escape and decided to haul on me.
I understand your point of having a guard dog around as crime rates are increasing but German can do the job too. Unless you're in a dog fight competition. Never in my right mind, I would want a dogo. Please. It's far too scary. And with so much dogo puppies adv, I'm afraid for the public. People always being reckless of not doing their best research on the breed. if a Dogo falls in the worng hand, we will at the end being resort to have it euthanize which a sad thing because it's a beautiful breed but it is us human that don't understand them."
This year only, I've seen at least 3 Great Danes being rescued by rescue groups and two didn't made it. It is sad to see such a thing happens to such great dogs especially when they were malnourished when rescued. No doubt that Great Danes eat a lot. But the very least you can do is to feed them with rice or your waste food of the day. I think I've wrote on this but again, a Great Dane can give birth up to 10 puppies at a time. So unless you've planned properly, you wouldn't want to mate them. And if you really want puppies, there are lots for sale at a very affordable price (by affordable, I meant compare to German, Doberman etc) out there so there's no need for breeding. Just to save a thousands, you'll spend 5k for the maintenance of the newborn puppies. Think for yourself.
"Last two years, I remember I was so sad sitting for my driving license."
This was on 1st September last year. I think I was back home for the holidays and Mousy was driving me around. Recalling back to the days when I was practicing my driving with Mum and Uncle. I was sad because I'm one of hundreds out there that will never have the chance to drive their father around. I'm sad coz my friends practiced their driving with their dads and have dads around to give some useful tips about cars. How I wish I was given the chance.
For each year after Dad left us, this is my thoughts on my birthday.
" It's the time of the year again where I questioned myself what is the significant meaning of the day aside that I'm out of the womb?! This year, a friend that I've always assumed as only 'friend' went great length to get me a birthday cake. I'm touched and surprised but more than that, I feel guilty. She went alone all the way to Tasik Bandar Selantan just to get the birthday cake.
Well, after Dad left, I don't really celebrate birthday anymore. Can't bring myself too. The last time I had such a big birthday cake was on my 13th birthday. We had Tiramisu cake. It was that period of time when Dad started to fall ill. After Dad left, birthday was not a celebration anymore."
Did I or did not I posted photos of my 20th birthday cake with Sha? Can't remember. I'm deeply touched with her efforts to get a cake for me on my birthday and also a very lengthy birthday card.
This one was drafted on 24th January 2015, after the interview for my degree. That sentence "The aim for now is to get this done without a shed of tears" I can't recall anything about it. But it probably is something emotional. Here, in my blog I shed lots of tears. So it's something normal.
"Being here today and clicking on the "New Post" button means no good news. The aim for now is to get this done without a shed of tears. I shed tears a lot. First and foremost, shall start my very first entry of the year (the Miracle entry is not counted) with my favorite quote of the week. "Wishes are for fools. What I need is a miracle". A miracle to make me slim and beauty in a day! Haha! You wish!!
Last Sunday I went down to KL for my interview to enroll into UCSI for Degree in Pharmacy. Yeah, after a year (2 years to be specific) I finally manage to put myself in degree life. Was so nervous for the interview and it doesn't get better when I heard there's a Chemistry test during the interview. On top of that, I'm totally clueless about the test. Thanks to my counselor, Mr Samuel for telling me absolutely nothing. LOL! At first when I heard of Mr Samuel that name, I imagined him to be a very old man, perhaps in his late forties with a bald head and bulging belly. *grins And he turns out to be well, maybe in his late twenties or early thirties. Quite nice looking la but he came in late!
Went in for the interview with another friend Jie Hwi, also from Foundation in Science (same intake). Took the Chem test. We were given two different separate test. Mine was quite easy where the questions are mostly on organic chemistry, those functional groups name. They gave the structural and you determine their functional groups like ketones, aldehydes, esters and a few more that I've clearly already forgotten. The second question was on determine whether the following medicine (aspirin and who knows what) is acid, base or alkali. Oh, thank god I did out my Form 5 Chemistry tuition notes the day before. Read a whole lot of info on medicine at the last chapter. FYI, aspirin is acidic and therefore cannot be taken before food as it can cause ulceration. The next question is on True/False questions where I'm given two different structural formula. I think it's quite easy for me. Just a lil tricky. The last question is on acid/base chapter where you're given a pair of cations and are required to determine which one is the strongest acid.
Here's the dreaded part. The actual interview. I actually didn't prepare much for the interview. Perhaps some basic question like 'Tell me about yourself", 'Why do you want to be a Pharmacist' and also the Strength and Weakness questions. I did lots of readings the night before and actually prepared with my answer. Memorized it to be specific. We were also asked on what does a pharmacist do, what is inside the cylinder cooking gas tank (something which is obviously not related) , what am I going to do for the 8 months before enrollment, what books am I currently reading and also some organic chemistry questions."
Obviously I passed the interview and now I'm waiting for August to enroll. This is my answer to the Tell me about yourself question. "Good morning. I'm Karen Chiok from Terengganu. I'm 21 this year. I'm living with my mum and 4 younger siblings. I enjoyed reading during my free time. My goal is to complete my Degree in Pharmacy and find a job to help support my family." I don't really want to tell specific details about myself like my mum's occupation, where's my dad or how old are my younger siblings. In my opinion, since the question is about me, I should just focused on myself.
I think I shall end here or I shall never post this again. A little updates on my life. Just came back from our holiday trip to Australia. Will find a time to blog about it. I'm still down with cough and runny nose. I'm starting to get busy planning for our Krabi trip for the coming holidays. Jia you, Karen!
Thanks for the time!
See you guys soon.
I hope
