A boring update

Let's do this. While waiting for my hair to dry naturally for bed, I figured why not I spend some time here. Turned 21 last Thursday. I'm just thankful to have a loving and understanding family that is always supporting me from behind. Mum posted birthday cards for me and they reached a day earlier. I'm deeply touched by the simple gestures thou we do not celebrate birthday at home anymore. Not since Dad left us.

I hope I have been a great daughter and sisters to them
;)

So on the day, after class, me and a friend of mine, Ah Hwi actually went to Ikea Cheras for their grand opening. Queued for the door gifts and managed to grab a horse deco and a bag. Considered that as my birthday gifts. I haven't have a cake yet. It seems to slip my mind every time I walked pass Secret Recipe. That shall wait then. Ikea Cheras is so much bigger than the one in Bandar Utama.

Let me ask you, what can a student do in a home furnishing shop other than mentally start to plan their future dream house? I was there to accompany my friend so I basically just walk around aimlessly with people pushing their ways through the crowds to get their hands on the great deals. At the end of the day, I managed to bought a pan for RM 9.90 and 4 Ikea bags for Mum since they are going to BKK in Dec. I plan to cook creeps with the pan but the problem is I don't know when. Shall update the progress and recipe if I manage to do it.

On our way back, we were actually talking about online business. I admitted to Ah Hwi that I have an online business. So apart from my family and you guys here, she is the only friend that knows. She wanted to open her own online business so being in the industry (if you call it that) I offered my advice. I cannot say that I am good at it because I am also still learning but after a year, I guess some of my advice will help her in starting her very own business. Also, I gave her start-up agent that I previously used for my own shopping.

When I started my degree, I actually put the business on hold. I put full focus on my studies. Mum must be proud of me. Frankly speaking, sometimes in class when the lecturers talked about drugs as in drugs preparation, dispensing etc, I often wondered why am I still here when I am clearly very interested in entrepreneurship and business sort of thing.

We are now at the last week of lectures before the study break and then finals. Well, for the past 4 months, I have been thinking a lot. I may look like I am not interested now but who knows I will be one day. I am determined to graduate as a pharmacist. Mark my words! The subjects so far so good. I think I am good except microbiology. I encountered some difficulties in understanding and memorizing the bacterial names. That can be solved with some cutting on my Wattpad stories and more focusing on the lecture notes.

Like previous year and previous previous years, there's nothing different being 20 or 21. Nothing change. But like Mum always said, 21 means it's time for me to be more responsible (like I am not) and to act more lady like (like I am not). Quote from Mum, "Your age 21 ah, you know last time people 21 marry already". Yes yes, I am not rushing into relationship nor marriage but sometimes, it just a whim to be loved and to love. Maybe at 21 I shall find the one. Who knows right?

Okay. I am basically out of ideas and start to crap. It's time to SLEEP!
