AWESOME SEND-OFF!!

courtesy of Joshua Chew

Memories of the 3 years in UM kept flashing in my mind...
Flooded with nostalgic feelings now and then.
All the friendship I've made, all the fun experience, joy and pain (mostly joy), all the crushes I had, the learning and sharing, the smiles and laughter I've seen and heard, the love I've seen grown...
It was a super-duper fantastical, end-with-a-bang, wonderfully memorable send-off on my official-final-day-as-a-undergraduate!
I can't thank all my friends enough for the colours they have painted in my university-life-canvas.
My apologies for all my misbehaviour towards any of you.

To all who graduated with me, congratulations and best wishes in your future undertakings!
To all who had graduated and still came back for the celebration, and to all coming-soon-graduates, Thank you is an understatement of how I want to express my feelings.
I'm missing all of you already.

Life's short; candles burn, brief;
Fear not of death but life unlived.
(Mine is well-lived with all of you in it!)

Lots of love,
Juin

Yum Yummy!

BBQ Steamboat at Talipon Restaurant, Jalan Kuchai Lama.
Awesome Foursome who went:

Clockwise from bottom left: Mel, Kiky, Tong, and yours truly.

The food was great! Especially after fasting for a whole day! gosh! 

The variety of food was not bad, especially love the herbal jelly dessert.

Starters... ^^

And the feast begins~

I burnt my brocolli slightly...

*sizzle sizzle*

lovely herbal jelly dessert

We graded it with a star. =)

I enjoyed the night out, my first time BBQ and steamboat-ing at the same time. ^^

But anyhow, it was the company I had that enhanced the taste in the gorgeous dinner.

I am so gonna miss you guys after graduation... When will we ever have chances like this anymore? =S

first paper to an ending

Today marks my first paper of my finals, the final of finals.
Loads have happened from the first day I came into University up till now.
High times can go up as high as the peak of mountains,  lowest to the bottom of a pool.
Aaahh... memories...
What more can one ask for...
Most of everyone came in to find love, others to get theirs hands on a paper they-think-will-bring-them-4-figure-salary-or-more, some to lead and to learn, some just to getaway from working-so-early-in-life phase.
I chose to be in betweens... greedy as I am, I think I had it all!

P/S: I am contented! =)

A final year project and its story~

It has been a long journey, through very new area...

Road has been there, always. It is I who have held my journey back.
I believe I could have done more, but I did not...
Note to self: procrastination is not to be brought into the working world.
But then again, my productivity do increase nearing deadlines... i wonder if that is a good thing?
Commented by few friends that I seem to be more spirited and motivated in my academics this semester.
That too left me wondering why...
Well, at least it is a good thing for sure.

Now, after all the thanks I gave in printed words in my thesis, I have one more 'person' to thank.
Someone important whom I could not have lived without.
He has been persistent, not giving up on me, although worked up as he is, working with me whole day and night. Even with tension rising, this person maintained his cool. There are ups and downs, of course. But it was usually fun to be with each other. Sounds and music are an inborn talent for him. If only he can dance with me.
I have my Papa to thank for bringing us together.
We first knew each other, if I'm not mistaken, 19th December 2009. It has been nearly one and a half year.

The unsung Hero~

Thanks for holding up all this while

Oh, how can I miss these good friends of mine?! I present:

My Pendrive n stained mousie~

Mr Pen & Mrs Paper

And my final output:

My final product \^o^/

Name & Registered Matric number ^^

Satisfaction!

Every punctuation, every alignment, every spaces, every coloured or blacknwhite page, every arrangement, every font-size, every font type, i try not to miss...
i lost count of the times i re-save and recombined the pdf files.
*took time off to count*
i deleted 10 combined files! which means i did it 11 times, cos I'm now satisfied with my pdf file.
Ready for printing!
FINALLY!
As usual, my productivity level increases under minutes-to-deadline moments.
Is that something to be proud of?
Point to ponder....

i might just be back for more...

UM Music Showcase 2009, 2010, 2011.
I went to all three. All three was equally awesome.
I might just consider coming back for more.

Blew me away~ ^^

*wink*

A memorable end to the Cside of uni...

C for Chinese. I do not wanna give the wrong impression here. I'm not a racist.
CC or Chinese Community was one of the first organization that gave me a feeling that there are seniors who care about the newbies-who-just-step-into-uni-n-knows-nothing.
CC has been a great platform for me to befriend new and interesting people, learn up lots of skills, get to know new places and most of all, have fun all along the way.
Last night, 31st of March 2011, was our CC Night, which was also (i guess) my last event for CC before I graduate. Awesome party, people!! Great job!

金龙家 - my familia~

A selca pic b4 the event is a must. XD

 

CC Batch 2008/2009, not all of us here, alas...

~random PTH picture to commerate my last PTH in uni~

May CC continue to give the same feeling or more to batches after me!
I hope CC stays strong!! <3 Thanks for being part of my memories here in UM.

I'm in my final semester now. Final Year Project to be done.
Now, it is starting to dawn to me that my graduation is near, and I should be thinking and deciding on what i really need to do in future.
There have been times I started drifting off in thoughts, considering possibilities of my future.
Recently, I drew strength and hope from dreams and ambitions of close friends. Sounds pathetic...
However, it is great to see friends spilling their dreams and sharing their ideas with you, sounding like a child full of hope and feeling as though everything is possible. Actually, nothing much is impossible, it is just the way you try to get pass obstacles and tackling them in a creative yet practical way.
There are lots of things I'd like to contribute in. However, it also dawns to me that I need to work on myself before I can lead. "Lead with example" is a quote I do believe in.
I miss the times where dreams and imagination flows and put a smile to my face, having faith in them, believing one day I can achieve all those; the times when the 'light bulb' turns on in my head, and ideas keep coming, arranging themselves in a realistic kind of way, feeding you the courage and plans to execute them.
There are much to think about, and much more to do... I want to relive my child-like feeling of 'Anything is possible', in order to gain strength and faith in things now.
Leaving me with one question now: Why can't I just be the child I was? =)

Finally a fullstop.

I hope what i have seen so far is only temporary. I started doubting myself, but then again, I have never been a good judge in this aspect.
Prologue or epilogue, that is the question.
For now, it is clear that I am a normal undergraduate with average grades.
*wink*

flowerhorn forehead... and loads of flashbacks...

My so said 'Fantabulous' days ahead just gave me a BANG on the head! literally!
There is a bump on my forehead... which thankfully was hidden by my one-sided fringe.

Done with my predicaments, elections in uni is coming up soon!!
Which also means my term as a rep has officially ended.
We MPMUM 2009/2010 were dismissed in a 'Hari-raya-announcement' style video by VC posted on our uni website.
And again, as years before, the hype of the campus elections is starting to spread all around, even more than the coming Valentine's day excitement. It is still exciting for me, kinda...
However, there are things a-term-as-student-rep has made me disagree upon.
Then again, with this current mentality and spirit, there are certain things that will need a lifetime to change.
I just sincerely hope that the coming board of rep will commit and contribute well to the long-term development of all students in UM and UM herself.  May they be wise enough to put capabilities before ideologies.
To all the friends i made and bonds i formed during my term, to all the memories and learning i gained in a term in the council, to all whom have supported me through thick and thin, and to those who have guided me, my sincerest thanks and apologies for everything. It was an AWESOME year (except the part where my academics were affected)!! *SALUTE*
Another streak of colour in my life's canvas...

Lotsa love,
Juin

Nantikan kemunculan party baru!

Had fun with d mpm gangies just now. Petir, Ash, Husna, Ilyas, Nuar, Zati n Lind, Husna's friends.

Was at McD; content of conversation, everything! From what we discussed at the final meeting, to badmouthing n gossips, to politics... Mostly remembered the politics part la.

The formation of a new party...perhaps...

Gosh~ The jokes, imitations, loud laughter, more jokes with a hint of truth, silly yet doable ideas... WOW!!! sounds interesting already!

If you want to, we'll all be behind u, Ash!

Your wish is our command... XD

of revolving stage, disco ball and VVIPs

10th anniversary of Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development.

It's just to funky not to be uploaded...

YB Senator Dato' Sharizat giving speech

Our very own Prime Minister giving speech feets away from me

atmosphere was great! ^^

Malarvili Meganathan, going high with me... Brushing shoulders with YB Sharizat & shaking hands with PM... *wink*

Tourism Minister, YB Ng Yen Yen was there too!
This post is apolitical and is not to be used against me! XP
Giving speech on a centre stage, very obama-campaign-like.
Disco ball, very club-like.
VVIPs, very freaking cool~
Thanks Datuk Dr Rafiah Salim, for personally inviting UMers.
Thanks Malar-the Singa for enjoying the event with me. It might be just the both of us, but it was still freakin great!

mind boogling, yet true...

Juin is pondering and wondering :
Has she been well trained, or well educated?

One term, busy, yet doing nothing... does that make sense to you?

was it a bad choice?

to leave when hell is let loose?
to jeopardise what might spell my future?
to sacrifice for someone i hold dear?
to smile when frown is what is expected of you?
come to think about it, what is the worst that can happen???
It'll just take longer...
someone once told me: "It is never the wrong way, just the longer way."
Nice quote!

prologue or epilogue?

finals has ended... holiday is beginning...
So, is this a beginning or an ending?
Just so you know, the semester has been quite interesting.
With dramas and rendezvous... stress and pressure... fun and laughters... frowns and tears...
But Aal Izz Well!

Life moves on to a next phase, hopefully even more awesome than before.

Sometimes, i just wish certain friendships stay strong, if not stronger. But I'm glad I made more along the way too...

What a Day!!!

Guess what happen the day before my first paper for finals? I dropped my (or more accurately my friend's) handphone into the toilet!!! Retrievable?? NO! huhu~
My friends and I did try to fish it out, until a point where we cannot even see it anymore, and calls are not going through to my phone no more...
Alas, all attempts failed, even lowering my arm in it... GAAAAH!
What was bothering me was that the phone is not officially mine, lent it from a good friend of mine... and... MY CONTACTS!!! gone, down the drain!!!
FYI again, it is the day before my first paper... = ="
Distracted if i am disconnected (even my friend knew I would be), I decided to retrieve my number straight away from any nearby service centre. Later, wrote the wrong order for my friend's meal, causing unnecessary embarrassment when we called the waiter over and he showed us the wrong order i wrote in my own handwriting...
Done with that, report to my mom, of course! Got a lecture... Had a long chat with sis too. Done with going through the contacts I have as soft copy, saving them in my new sim, now to buck up for my paper in less than 18 hrs before stepping into the exam hall... Hah, what a day!!

Well, best of luck to all my mateys who are facing their finals as well. May all of us pass with colours, if not flying ones. *wink*

Reminder to self: Curiosity can hurt.

contagiousness of your energy

Stress or any emotional output from a person is actually contagious. which means any positive and happy feelings is able to influence others as well... =)
However, since the finals is around the corner, i emphasize more on the output of stress and other negative energies.
I just wanna say that i hope i don't stress anyone out, 'cos if i do, we will stress each other out.

The worst thing now is, i still cant get my study mood on, and can still be easily distracted by any source of entertainment.
Just so you know, i just went out for a movie 2 days back! which was a week away from my first paper!!!
Can't resist the magical world of wizardry and witchcrafts, if you know what i mean...
Gaaaah! and viewing back videos of 'whose line is it anyway', snippets of Neil Patrick Harris in 'How I met your mother', etc...
Stress is a must when it can being drive and will to do something.  I am wishing for stress, but what i got is not the kind of stress i am wishing for~ do you get what i mean? 'cos i think I'm starting to blab and not make sense to even myself anymore....
(this is what 5-days-from-exam-without-any-preparation can do to you)

Grateful~

For the friends that i have...
Who have all this while been supportive of me, offering me kind gestures, gentle reminders, harsh wake-up calls, mature advices, comforting words, loyal services, fun & entertainment, attentive ears, nanny-ish nagging, compliments, gossips, scoldings...


I am thankful that my circle of friends has always been there for me throught thick and thin; naive or knowledgable, rough or gentle, annoying as they are, hilarious as they can be, serious or silly, i believe they stand true to themselves and to the friendship we have.


I hope I am, to them, what they are to me.


The truth is, everyone will hurt you; you just need to find those worth suffering for. ~Anonymous
