newcastle

ah, uni life can never be better. semester 7 is so free that each week there's only 2-3 day lessons. and a pretty long weekend holidays too. so i took a break and visit my old A level friends in Sunderland. and so i took train from Glasgow Central to Newcastle which took 2 and the half hours to reach there. speaking about train, the train service in UK is so awesome. when they say on time, they really meant it.


ticket to newcastle.... cost me about 13pounds one way.


train station in newcastle.


chinatown in newcastle - hokah, me and fangying - chinatown was awesome. but Malaysia food is better XD

lastly, an odd statue. hmmm, i don't really know much the meaning of this. "lol?"

Final Year Project

ah yeah, final year project. A project that determines our Mpharm degree. And it's pretty tough when you get a topic which you have no idea what to do with it. Most of my friends have topics which is lab-based. it might sound interesting but the truth is unpredictable. as for me, i've got a topic which involved fieldwork. yeah, fieldwork. going out to hospital meeting some important people and discuss with them. with the help of my supervisor ian (he's cute), im gonna make a questionaire which ... oh well, i still haven't thought of it.

by the way, my topic:

"knowledge, understanding and compliance of prescription warning label"

hmm... sounds interesting. warning label? yea, something like:
"warning - may cause drowsiness"
"warning - do not drive or operate machinary"
"warning - do not take alcohol"

any idea?

my partner, jasmine and i went with ian to meet 'the sleep guy' (ian called him that name). the sleep guy was dr jason, a psychologist which deals patient with sleeping disorder. i think i need a consultation from him too cause im having insomia lately. haha. anyway, ian drove us to southern general hospital. he made us wait for 40mins in the coldness while he got stucked in traffic jam before meeting us. T_T

after the discussion, ian said we did 'brilliantly'. lol. i bet that 'brilliant' meant 'good', not extraordinary. he was afraid to do all the talking while we just sit there quietly, but we surprised him by preparing well and really communicate during the meeting. great day!

well, now i have just few weeks to prepare my intro draft and maybe a questionaire prototype. so wish me luck. =D

lost blog - new job

previously, I made a blog but somehow I was unable to find the correct email and password. So now I've end up with a brand new blog. =(

life's great overall. After almost 4 months of suffering during sem 6, it's time for a good break. Instead of going holiday during summer holiday, I've end up working for a ( kinda n00b) recruitment agency which distributed us to various jobs.

working in a new environment was a challenging thing to do. the communication, different culture and the atmosphere were totally different. somehow i just had to get used to it.

first job - worked in food retail in the 'Disney on Ice' skating performance at Braehead (bri - hat) LOL. It was so hectic especially during the weekends. And those skater in Nemo suit. pretty cool! unfortunately i wasn't unable to take any picture during the event. extremely tiring as i had to work long hours and it involved lots of physically strength. but the paid was ok, 5.60pounds per hour.

but at the end of the day, I've got a 'souvenir' from the event. A turtle cup. pretty cute.

compared to the strathclyde mug behind, i think this one is cute. love it so much. but it cost like 5pounds. I got it free cause my friend picked it in the skating arena when clearing up rubbish. someone left such precious stuff behind. oh well, its mine now since my friend don't really like it. wahaha =D






the next job was serving during a business conference. basically i worked as a waiteress and dishwasher on those days. the buffet was pretty cool, scottish hand-diced beef, roasted vegetable with cous cous, asparagus tart and apple and blueberry scrumble. no picture but u can image. but i just donno why they need us to serve them when it's called buffet. weird. and i've made a record of washing almost 100++ plates, sauces, fork and spoons. it was crazy. and fun at the same time. haha =X
