my 1st ever post here =)

hello everyone!!! it's like finally... that i've finished 2 terms in uni, and that easter break arrived. so... i'm FINALLY HOME!!^^ that's such a great thing, at least to me.

well, as promised, here i am to write my 1st post ever at this blog. not having much things in mind to blog about, i guess i will write a bit about life in uk, in comparison with malaysia's perhaps?

after some very distressing applications of university, visa etc, finally i got into the medicine course of university of leeds last aug/sep and flew over to uk for it. there are simply too much things that happened over the past half a year since i went there. Of course, it was filled with moments of joy, sadness and all sorts of feelings. there are several things that i considered significant to me though, which i experienced during the time i was there. i guess i will start with those, and tell others in other posts if i can k? =)

hmm... first of all, there is this Malaysian and Singaporean Society (MASSoc) in my university which had quite a big impact on me. i first heard of it in the pre-departure briefing of the uni, which was held in kl in august. i didnt pay much attention though, thinking that it's just an ordinary society/club just like what i came across during high school or college time. when i 1st reached uk, i didnt really attend it's events as well, such as the city tour to welcome newbies, hari raya celebration etc. however, on the day of the ordinary general meeting(OGM), i attended it to support my friends. it was a meeting which new junior committee members were elected. on that night, i was voted for as the assistant secretary. it was after that when i committed more in MASSoc and started to love it. I came to know more Malaysians then, and i enjoyed being in the committee team and taking part in the events held. Some of the events included CNY party, Manchester trip, MASSoc Ball etc.

as for the academic part, some of you already knew that i'm studying medicine. i've studied biomedical science in 1st term and 3 of the transport systems in term 2. in this course, i really had to get used to getting Cs and Ds for assessments. so far i've gotten a B and a D, and the rest are Cs... anyway, just hope that i will be able to pass all assessments throughout the 5 years. i've also started dissection classes when term 2 started. hmm... after all it isn't as scary as i used to think of.

well... i have to go now. will blog again some other time, see ya.. =)
