3rd year is overrr!!!!!!

Owh yes! 3rd year is finally over!

finished my exam on the 6th.
and then i started my summer placement at Co-operative Pharmacy in Marple Bridge the day after.
i wish to complain. really i do.
but i'm grateful to be given the opportunity to do this.
i really want to be able to do my pre registration year in the UK and work another 1 or 2 years here.
fingers crossed.

the placement, to be honest, shouldn't be as tiring as doing hospital pharmacy, but because the staff and i can't sit down throughout the working hours (except during lunch break), now that is just painful. but i'm glad that atleast i get to know how working in retail pharmacy is like. it is ok, but i have to say, hospital pharmacy is better. probably coz i got the chance to work in a hospital pharmacy with a nice working environment with friendly staff. don't get me wrong, the staff in the pharmacy i'm working at now are really nice people. but there are only 4 staff, and it gets a bit too quiet sometimes. and being me, i'm no quiet ok. lol.

yesterday my Cambridge bestie, Iqa came to visit me. had a great time yesterday, thank you for coming sayang! and it's so hard to see you! but i know stories overload gila yesterday sbb lama sgt tak jumpa. hope next year will get to see u more when i go down to London. love u! ooohh.. my friends and i did a Singstar marathon! from 6pm til almost 12am. bloody hell!

life in general has been good. third year was great, but some of the things that i had to go through were totally unnecessary. and looking back now, how petty those things were! but hey, on the bright side, i learned more. not for one second did i even regret my decisions. that was the time when i decided to be selfish and put myself first above everything else.

I love how my third year was a lot more slow pace and how i had more time for myself and friends. think it was more chilled and relaxed. and third year really taught me about people. learned how to accept who they are. but if i decided that i couldn't put up with someone, distance is definitely my one and only option. i have to admit, i miss my first year the most. second year was the peak of my uni life and no matter how hectic it was, i loved every second of it.

i'm going back to Malaysia next Wednesday (22nd june)! i can't wait!

and sooooo it's down to 2

i'm done with my 4th paper, Pharmacology!
i left the exam hall with a smile.

well the thing is. i was screwing my brain by memorising the hundreds of drug names and the mechanism and the receptors etc for the past few days.
and omg it was one of the most challenging subjects ever.
if you ain't got the memorising skills, Pharmacy aint for you.

so yeah.. i had to train my brain. did all the past papers i could find and pretty much memorised the answers. ad thankfully, more than half of the questions were from past papers so fingers crossed, i hope to get a high 2 1 or first for this. pretty please.

my next papers will be on 2nd and 6th June and i'll be done by after that yeahhhhhhh!
can't wait!
so the next few days i will be more chilled. =)

Hailie Deandra binti Mohd Nurhaimi


Hello people! Meet my newborn niece, Hailie! (pronounced as Hay-lee not HAI-lee)
Was born on 14th May at 1.03pm.
2.85kg.
a healthy pretty baby girl indeed.

Eventhough I'm like thousands of miles away from my family, felt as though i was there. Ratih kept on bbm-ing me from the moment when her waterbag broke til after Hailie was born.
she kept on telling me how painful it is, until like around 10am she said, ok cannot take it anymore. asked for the epidural injection. like around 12pm she started pushing and then.. little Hailie finally came out at 1.03pm! and straight away got a phone call from Mama, baby's out!

the pic above was taken like a day after she was born. i think she is gorgeous, just like her name. and please don't ask me that crap.. eee kenapa nama matsaleh sgt. i ain't in the position to answer that. but anyways, Ratih's been sending pics of Hailie on daily basis. all on my bb, not bothered to upload on my laptop.

ooooooooooohhhhhh can't wait to come home already!
Aunty Nini loves you, Hailie.

_________________________________________

apart from the good news, i'm currently in the midst of exam period. more like PMS for the next 2 weeks. omg. can't wait for this semester to be over. wheeeeeeeheeeeeeeee!
one down, 5 more to go!
it's tiring! all i can think of is drug names and QSAR and therapeutic proteins for now.

wish me luck.

and my flight back to Malaysia is on.... jengjengjeng... 22nd June.
i'm reaching on 23rd!
26th - off to Bali with sis Dian!

hope to be back in UK by mid Sept and will need to plan for a short holiday before class commences on the 21st Sept. Istanbul anyone? hehehe.

bring it on final year. i can't wait.

ON HIATUS

EXAM STRESS KICKS IN FINALLY!


arghhh i hate this sem's modules.

so anyways, life has been pretty much the same.
sometimes i wonder whether i realise that exam is in 10 days coz i'm effin relaxed.
i should be studying 8 hours a day.
but seems like i can't go more than 4 hours.
owh well.
i've covered most of the material.
just that i need to start memorising.

come on! i need to feel the stress to study even more. arghhhhh. not enough stress. how?

anyways, this blog will be on hiatus for a month.
i will only write a new blog post if there's anything particularly new.

for now, EXAM EXAM EXAM.

ALL THE BEST FOR EXAMS PEOPLE.
STUDY SMART.

I MISS EVERYONE AT HOME!
owh sistah, please go into labour a.s.a.p. seems like my niece is pretty stubborn coz she still doesn't wanna come out.

It takes a lot to become a pharmacist. pfft.

exam timetable is out.

first paper 19th May- Drug Metabolism and Disposition
25th May - Rational Drug Design (two papers)
27th May - Pharmacology 2
2nd June - Disease Management
6th June - Social Pharmacy.


argh. i don't really like some of the subjects this semester. i'm annoyed by the fact that i don't even have the mood to read for those subjects. damn.

i have started my revision since i came back from Gran Canaria. pretty slow. and shit loads of info especially for Pharmacology. really. now i understand why med students hate Pharmacology. even after 1 hour reading it, i can feel like my brain is fried.

anyways, right after i finish my exam, i will be doing 2 weeks placement at Cooperative Pharmacy. finally they confirmed the details with me. quite lucky to get this placement. seems like the Brits really cut down on giving jobs or even summer placements to the international students.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR SUMMER!
anyways, my sis, Ratih is almost due. omg. her tummy is friggin huge now. wish i could be there when she pops my niece out. =(((( hopefully by end of this month or early next month you'll hear the happy news.

soooo.. the plan is, as soon as i finish my placement, i will take a flight back to Malaysia. hoping for no resits, i will come back to UK around mid September. sounds like a plan eyh?

will also apply for internship in Malaysia. *fingers crossed*

Easter!!!

Hola!
few days ago, just came back from Gran Canaria. and it was amazing!!!
much needed break! yehhhh!
the trip was tiring, however we managed to fully utilise our time so yayyyyyyy!

now back in Manchester and trying to study as much as possible.
weather is damnnnn nice now. everyday is like 17-19 degrees. so bring out the summer clothes and pack all those winter clothes into the box.
hence the reason why i cant study during the day. just feel like going out every friggin day.

i just realised uni year is coming to an end.
and next September, will start my 4th year. omg.
stop the clock please.
and i'm starting to feel sad.
my best ever flatmate Nadia will be leaving for London after she graduates in July.
damnnn no more bimbo flatmate to be bimbo with and to bitch with. haiyo.

next uni year will be staying with Kaizan. he's in his first year now and got to know him for the past few months and we're quite close already. so yep, i have a little brother to live with next year! will be living in a student flat like literally seconds from my uni building. it's a 3 bedroom flat (the 3rd person is random so we expect he/she better put up with our shit or off you out of the flat!). hoping 4th year to be another great year! amin!

a little something i learned.
anger is NOT the way to go. you can be all angry at that person but in the end of the day, you realise that you wasted your precious energy on people who are insignificant and waste of space. so when you feel like getting angry, take a deep breath, and tell yourself, it's not worth it and totally unnecessary. why waste time and energy on insignificant people?
