Finally..


Finally, after hours on the plane, one place to another, I safely reached my destination, AIMST UNIVERSITY, KEDAH! It was very tiring, sitting in the plane, sitting at the cafeteria while waiting for the next flight. My first flight, 10.40pm from Miri and reached Kuala Lumpur by 0100am. Then waited at food court with Ci Hui. Spent the whole night talking to each other, then our friendship bonds grew stronger. Finally the time stroked 4.30am, we went check-in our luggage. Then we felt so "light" cause we don't need to keep an eye on our superbly heavy luggage. We went in the departure hall at around 5am, waited for our VVIP, Jeremy to come. We waited him for so long, he finally reached at 6.30am. As soon as he reached after awhile we went boarding. Ci Hui and I was already so tired, we finally dozed off as we didn't sleep the whole night. This very very annoying and impolite air-steward waked Ci Hui and me up and said "miss please sit straight" and adjusted our chair. At first I didn't heard of his calling until "someone" tapped on my leg. I thought it was Ci Hui who touched my leg to wake me up, but it was the air-steward who tap my leg. Hello, can you be more polite? Even if I don't wake up at least you tap ONLY on my shoulder, not my leg please! Then the next time we dozed off again now was the other air-stewardess who adjusted the chair without asking our permission. When we waked up the chair was straight and we felt pain on our neck. What type of service is this? ZZZ! As soon as we reached Alor Setar airport, three of us started to complain about Alor Setar, the airport is so small, even Miri ones is more awesome and bigger! The bad lucks started as we touched down on Alor Setar airport. First, we have been charged for RM30 per person to the taxi driver to bring us from airport to Bedung as our hotel was there. Actually it was AIMST responsible to bring us to our hotel without paying a single cent! But it turned out that the driver wasn't working on that day. Helo, we're from out station and you promised us to pick us up! Now, we have to pay on our own? I want my RM30 back!!!! Along the way to our hotel, we didn't see any malls, supermarkets, or anything nice, instead we see old shops only. Its like we were on our way at the Bekenu, even Bekenu is better I think! Its so ULU, very rural. Reached hotel and took a rest. Went down to the counter to asked if there's any taxi available to pick us to supermarket/mall nearby to buy our daily needs, unfortunately they said don't have.We have to stand under the hot sun at the roadside and wave to taxi. We waved so hard but none, no taxi stopped. Even the gardener there keep an eye on the cars passing through. Then this very friendly uncle said that his son is going to pass by the places that we can get out daily needs and willing to  bring us there! We were so fortunate to meet friendly peoples who willing to help. I can say, Kedah peoples are friendly! The very good son brought us to one of the mall i suppose which is Tesco. We felt like as if we're in Kuching cause the area there really looks like Kuching, Kuchings' feelings. As soon as we stepped into the mall, we quickly get ourselves some food as we haven't been eating since our SUP-BREAK at 3am. Hahaa. Then we walked around the supermarket and got our daily needs and approached the cashier for payment. We didn't realized there was a sign saying that "Only less than 10 items". One man approached us and told us to go to another counter to make payment. After buying all the stuffs we actually planned to buy ourselves some breads, but the taxi distracted us, we quickly jumped into the taxi and went back hotel. In the end, no dinner , no bread. Nothing to eat. So hungry! We get ourselves some mee cups at the shop next to the hotel. It wasn't enough for our dinner, but what to to. The next day we check out and headed to our uni, with very excited and happy feelings. Our jaw like dropping to the floor as we reached. The uni is very nice and big. Our jaw dropping isn't about the building is nice or what but because of the student's dresscode. We were told to only can wear formal clothes during office hours everyday which is from 8am to 5pm. But we saw many students wearing casual clothes even during the office hours. We were so angry and complained about "MissT". We felt being cheated. Then we placed our luggage and etc near the cafeteria and proceed to The Great Hall for registration. Filled form and proceed to station by station. This very atm was so troubling. It said out of service, how am I gotta proceed my registration? Was very headache and trouble and my withdrawal limit only can withdraw 5k per day and on that day i have to withdraw 7.5K if not i cannot proceed my registration. So sienz right I don't even know we need to pay on the spot. I rather get a cheque with daddy! So stupidd. The AIMST driver brought us to the town to the bank. Finally, we got our money and quickly back to the uni. Another very annoying one was we have to pass our Medical Check Up Report. We were given only two weeks time to make it. Transport is the problem. So Jeremy and I forced to call this MissT to bring us there cause there's no one else besides her. LOL! This cheater. Oppss. Its was the most tiring day as I've been walking under the hot sun for I'm not sure for how many kilometre already back and go from Admins Block, Cafeteria Block, here and there. It's so far. Why dont we have something like a Golf Car to bring us around? When we were done it was already around 4pm. Carried luggage all the way up to my hostel alone. So heavy, I felt like fainting in the middle of the way. So far, so high! Why our hostel no lift?!! When I'm done it was alaready 5.30 something, so I rushed to get a bath and proceed to Orientation Hall. Super Uber Tired lar!! The first night, I slept alone. I got no room mate, so lonely! But i'm not scared being alone in a new place, so daring! Hahaa. Then I fell asleep as soon I lied on the bed. Woke up at 6 in the morning, got myself bath and prepared to go for breakfast at the cafeteria. Then orientation again. The fun part was the game, the others was boring. Wednesday was public holiday! Unpacked all my things, washed my clothes. Seriously, life without a washing machine was effing terrible! The toilet is so small, even when I bath i can't keep turning around, the space is so small! It would be hard for the big size person to bath inside. Hahaa.. And the drying area is small and high. Even I hang my clothes at there it takes 2 to 3 days to dry even the weather is hot like in an oven! Rather dry the clothes in my room with the help of the fan! Thursday was kinda bored, I entered the orientation hall later an hour. Missed some parts which I think important. But after that it was boring, I almost fell asleep listening the person in front especially the part they talk about Business and Engineering. The funny and kept me awake was the Indian guy talk, his slang, when he talk very fast no one knows what he is saying, it was like his tongue spinning. Funny, all burst into laughter. Skipped the afternoon activity, went to the library to revise back my Chemistry. Cause the afternoon activity was bored, i think! Play bored game, I heard from the seniors. Hahaa. That evening, Ci Hui, Jeremy, Alvin and I went to the sports complex and had our jog at the red tracks. We managed to finish 2 rounds only. We actually wanted to train our stamina as we're going to participate in "AMAZING RACE AND FEAR FACTOR" which will be held on the coming 20April. Can't wait for it. Our team must get CHAMPION! Although Alvin isn't our group member. Then those friendly seniors invited us to join Frisbee. It was my first time playing. It was fun!! We played till 7pm I guess and the sun was still there! Looks like still 4 or 5pm! Headed to the cafeteria and had our dinner. Chit chatted for awhile and went back hostel to bath and came down to the cafeteria and chit chat again! Just can't stop crazy together. We talked, we laughed, we ate! Anything. So fun. I don't feel homesick since the first day I reached. Except I felt like talking to family! I felt independence ever since I reached. I like the environment here. But the I dislike and felt pressured when I see those foundation students had started to read notes and so on. My God! Can't you don't be so hardworking first? After this, I'll be going to the study room every night and study there. I must squeeze myself within 100th in the list!! I must get the seat in Degree in Pharmacy! I must not fail!! I was so shocked to hear that they only offer 100 students to proceed Degree in Pharmacy, 75 students in Dentistry, 200 students in MBBS! I must squeeze myself in the top 100th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please pray for me. )): I haven't tell family about this, don't wanna make them pressured. This stupid Digi I don't know what is wrong with it. Have been eating my RM20 ever since I reached. Only 2 weeks time, RM20 is gone. Even I text to Digi numbers, it eat my 10cents for every text. So weird!! WHat is wrong with you?! I feel like throwing you! )): Friday, Saturday and Sunday holiday!!! Staying in the hostel is so bored. Friday evening, basketball court meet! Yay!! Enjoy doing sports. Saturday evening, hopefully swimming!
