Survival

hey! now is 2.am. rainy day. it is cold and humid out side there. supposing i should lay on my bed and rest my day in this superb weather. but, my roommates and i still staying awake and doing our own things. face to face with our laptop. shaun is scrolling on people' blog, ke wei is looking for songs and download them, zai yi is hunting for Internet game and as for me, non but blogging and listening to the old Christmas song. ' i dreaming on the white Christmas....................'

yeah, Christmas season is here, my mind is blasted with all kinds of Christmas songs. can't wait for the day to come, 'hohoho.........Merry Christmas.'

as the silence night has not at its rest, and the quietness of its has been broken by the noisy amphibians. then, i flesh back for some moment. a year plus,i have been in this University located in a small town of Sungai petani,kedah, and planted in a rural area of Semeling Town. small but huge to explore, it is beyond my expectation that there is actually a medical university in it. however, small town less life style. at here, the shops start to close at 8pm and by 10pm, Semeling Town is at its entire rest of day. only left 1 or 2 shops are on its running. Out of my surprise too, i have seen great Indians' population here, lots of them. Puri, chapati, canai, tossei, various types of curry, are basically our daily meal. what can you expect from them? i asked my self over thousand times. and still not satisfied with my own self comfort. 'please adapt to it, over 5 years you will able to love the delicious and unique taste of them'. surviving!

It is all about the surviving skill.as life goes on here, a firm foundation must be laid.


The things that you will come across here.

  1. Great population of Indians-'mini india'
  2. Various 'species' of Indians, Punjabi, Tamil, Telegus, Malayalees and Sikhs

  3. Language- Tamil, Punjabi...........(try to understand)

  4. Different slang and accent of the lecturers. sometimes, you will find it funny but pay attention don't mess around with them.

  5. Typical Malaysian working style-top 'efficiency' in management.

  6. Lots of talking session. basically you must talk.

  7. Laugh as mush as you can-although sometime is lame

  8. Food- daily menu: curry, curry and curry....vegetable in curry, curry soup, curry chicken, curry fish, curry...........................

  9. Entertainment: Indian songs blast every corner-'auto alarm clock'

  10. Religious place- Hindu deities.......Rama, Krishna,Ganesha..............


those are the ten basic things you will take into account when you step in to this university. frankly speaking, i never mix or even know about Indians till i come here. In Sarawak,Indian has a minimal population. that's why i was shock to see lots of Indians when i first step into this university. but overall i still manage to know their style and culture.

as i said, small town less life style. so, in order to keep my teenage life with full of excitement and interesting especially during these study years. i have come out with an ultimate surviving plan in order to stay lively in here.
  1. Adapt yourself to the shpere

  2. do not isolate yourself

  3. go and make friends-lots of friends-better still if you can get friends around Malaysia

  4. know your holidays well

  5. plan your holidays well-go and explore around

  6. finished your work loads before you go off
  7. flexible to your schedule

  8. listen and try to accept your friends' opinion

  9. sharing is caring

  10. mind your surroundings

  11. concentration during lectures

  12. know your class's veteran and patron or dominant

  13. run your own budget planning

  14. encourage each of your friends to study

  15. have some games for leisure

  16. organise some interesting activities-during festival season

  17. consult to your friends if you undergo stress-any form of stress

  18. 'joker and joke'-my favorite

  19. listen to your friends and understand them

  20. 'Get Some Life'
haha...that's my commission for the surviving plan. during the coming years, i will try my very best to keep our lives as interesting as possible. 5 years of studies, it gonna be long and draggy. therefore, we learn, we dream and we play. That's life

Accomplishments.........
