Hello! I’m still alive and I am all well, back at home. I’m on my 3-month holiday break and I am loving it! It has been a real blessing being at home and I can never ask for more than what I have now. Alhamdulillah.

I reached home on the 23rd June at night. Mummy, daddy and Dian picked me up from the airport. I was in the same flight with Aina from Dubai to KL. That would be our last flight together from Dubai. Aina is back home for good. Argh. Everyone seemed to graduate this year. I teared up a bit when I was on board coz I was typing a long message to my flat mate, Nadia Anwar Tan who has been putting with all my crap for the past two years.

Seriously Nadia, I don’t even know how you could keep up with me. This year may have been a rollercoaster ride for you and I, but I couldn’t have made it through without you who are constantly and never failed to be there by my side. The best thing is that you are more passionate about my petty little shits than I am, even up til NOW! You will have to get ready with numerous phone calls and skype sessions from me next term. Lol. Thanks for everything, Nad. If I could name a person who has been my backbone for the past 9 months, the award goes to you, hands down.

Little mushy up there, but hey, just showing some love. Hahaha.

Well I have been a part time babysitter for my little niece, Hailie Deandra. She is the most well behaved baby I have ever met. She doesn’t cry unless if she’s hungry. She enjoys being cuddled and talked to, and weird thing is she’s already trying to talk! Baby talk, I mean. she’s only 6 weeks old, but not acting like one. Very active too. The other babysitter, Aunty Jenjen just flew to HongKong for conference and then will fly back to US next month. Pfft. So I’m the permanent babysitter at the moment.

I’ve also applied for a part time job at a local pharmacy. I got it, but the pharmacist told me to start next week. A bit too soon, no? I haven’t started to feel restless. I think coz I didn’t have a proper rest after my exams til I flew back home. It was hectic! But now I have all the rest that I can have in the world. Phew.


Exam results were out too. I didn’t do great, but I did well enough to be able to go to the next term. I know I could have done better, but I had prepared as well as I could. An overall 2nd upper class. I doubt that I can get 1st class. Maybe my brain capacity was only at its best up til pre uni. Lol. What the heck, third year is done babeh! It’s final year now! It accounts for 70% towards my degree so if I really wanna get first class I will have to get 75% for my final year. Say bye bye to my social life. Pfft.

As for holiday trips, I went to Bali with Dian last week and on 17th will be going to Langkawi with mummy, daddy and Qahl. Ok. Overdose leisure. And I might not be able to go for another trip with my friends. Big boss won’t be happy. I have yet to plan my short trip before uni reopens. Adoiii.

Last but not least, i'm very much contented now coz i finally have my Subang peeps near me who never failed to fill our short outings with laughters and gossips and of course, food. i love you guys.

Sorry this post is too lengthy. Guess to many things to update.

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!
