There was nothing much to do after the KL trip. I had been quite moody after the trip. My parents, especially my mother, does not understand how I feel. She sarcastically keeps on commenting about how grateful I should be, this and that. Nevermind that. Anyway, I got my foundation results not long after I visited KL & it turned out to be fine. I was definitely qualified for Pharmacy. Of course I applied immediately.
Then I was off for Redang with my parents for holiday, and it should be a wonderful time, but one thing spoilt all the good mood – I was not selected for Pharmacy degree intake. Thanks Ms. Tanusha, you’ve made me a failure! I was qualified for every programme in AIMST but thanks to you, you’ve made Pharmacy further away from me! Thank you for putting me under Medicine & Dentistry. CIPOT TANUSHA!!!
Redang Island’s waters were clear & the marine life there was really beautiful. But since my camera was not functioning properly, then I could not take any of those beautiful scenes.
Back to AIMST, I made a visit back to AIMST with my mother this time. The CIPOT TANUSHA was really terrible, her lies sounded true, but they were not. She lied that those who got into Pharmacy had superb results & my results were way below theirs. CIPOT TANUSHA, how long do you want to lie? You’re such a B*TCH! Even Dr. Rashid bulshitted that the selections were done based on merits. I got into Pharmacy nonetheless, thanks to Cindy’s help.
I was kind of happy to get into Pharmacy, yet again, late. Just like last time. I was like alone in the class for some time until I got to know a few friends: Shi Yun, Ada, Eddy, Mei Mei, & Liang Fatt. The lectures were OK overall & the lecturers were good & dedicated. The class, as usual, typical pharmacy students. What to do? Gotta bear with it for another three years plus. Along the way, many funny things do happen among the students. My birthday was celebrated at small scales, thanks to various people.
The examination was not really difficult. It was quite easy to pass (I mean the core subjects). After the examination, I was to work with my aunt, Gaik Bee. Well, the pay was not really high, at RM 25.00 per day, & the workload, OMG... from babysitter to driver, from maid to maid guardian, from gardener to market aunty, from factory operator to office clerk, etc. All also I gotta do, pau snua pau hai (cover mountain cover sea)...
Chinese New Year this year was kind of usual but this time, I helped my grandmother more. As usual, I would go over to Uncle Tin Tin’s place to stay as it was nicer & cleaner there. This year, no bombs there. There was also a reunion dinner on the third day of Chinese New Year with the siblings of my father but this year’s Chinese New Year was a bit special as also I attended another dinner where I met Jon. Though the meeting was short but it was lovely.
Zen Chia was with me throughout the whole of these time. Hair-do-ing together, go for movies together, Chai Leng park together, & many other nonsenses. Without her, life here in SP & Penang would be like short of an essence. Of course, after Chinese New Year, I stopped working with aunt Bee as I cannot bear with it anymore. My parents were not happy about it but I’m not about to suffer doing something I don’t enjoy just to please other people.

The Return of DesBow, Elf of the Golden Wood & Pharmacotherapy I - Pick Up From Where I Left Off...
It has been nearly one year since I last blogged, and now, I'm back with many changes, not in my writing, but in my life.Many things happened within this 7-8 months and I'll try to account on them as detailed as possible. I last wrote on my visit to KL on July/August 2007, and I did not finish the story. Had I the urge & time to do so, I would, but at that time, the time & things wouldn't allow me to do so, so I should try to account back on the things that took place then.
Forgive me if I fail to mention anything or left out anything since it was at least 7 months ago since I made this return visit there. In the last blog, I left out my Connaught CIMB bank trip to cancel my CIMB account as I am no longer staying in KL. The trip reminded me of the time I journeyed to the bank together with Christopher to open an acocunt for PTPTN loan when I was still in Medicine. Also, other trips to make bank drafts to pay for Pharmacy degree fees & stuff like that.
I forgot exactly what happened on the subsequent days ahead but I remembered that I did make a trip to 1 Utama. I guess it would be day 3, Thursday, the 19th of July 2007. Phiaw Chong & Qiu Ping wanted to go along, & since they were in Setapak & I was in Cheras, we planned to meet at Masjid Jamek Putra Line LRT station, since to get to 1U, I had to switch from STAR Line LRT to Pura Line LRT. I was supposed to have lunch with the CB-Sakai Gang, but there was a slight misunderstanding, & I went up the UCSI van & headed to the LRT station without their knowledge because I thought they had no plans to have lunch with me. Suddenly Super Leng Lui called me, then I explained everything to her. I was off to Masjid Jamek LRT station & I met Phiaw Chong & Qiu Ping there. We then continued our journey to 1U.
Upon reaching, we should be heading for lunch first but we stopped by Padini store. There were a few clothes that caught my eye, & the pricing was also very attractive, but sadly, no size that was suitable for me was to be found. What I remembered was that we had lunch in Chili’s. It costs quite a lot but it was kind of worth it. The food tastes nice & the portion was large also. Somehow, after lunch, I bought a hideous shirt from Zero Hour which costs about RM 20.00.
The interesting thing about that day was that that night, I tried to take a bus from Bandar Tasik Selatan LRT station back to Connaught. I boarded the wrong bus which led me to Cuepecs. It was my first time there thought I’ve driven past somewhere near there before. I called Super Leng Lui for help. She was with her boyfriend. Oh, how disturbing, she might be sweetly having an intimate time with him when suddenly my call interrupted. She came with her boyfriend in her Little Red Kancil of course.
The following day, I guess I went to Sungai Wang with Phiaw Chong again. This time, Qi Xian & her youngest sister, Wen Ying, came together. I guess it was the second time Phiaw Chong went to Sungai Wang. Nothing much happened, but since Sue Zin’s place was not really suitable for me to stay too long, so I planned to go over to Qi Xian’s place to stay Sunday onwards.
Saturday had nothing on, but I guess we went to meet up with Kai Liang & Qiu Ping, then we went to the Eye on Malaysia at night. Then on Sunday, I had breakfast with Xiang Bin before having lunch with Super Leng Lui, Sue Zin & her boyfriend in Leisure Mall. Afterwards, we went to Mid Valley again. This time, I bought a light purple t-shirt. I liked the colour very much. After that, at night, I went over to Qi Xian’s place with Phiaw Chong’s guidance. If I’m not mistaken, Phiaw Chong went to Sungai Wang again to meet his friends.
I met Phiaw Chong at the Wangsa Maju LRT station then we took a bus to Qi Xian’s house. On the bus, someone missed call me a few times. It was Louis. Actually, in the LRT itself he already started to miss call me. I had no idea why he did that. Anyway, upon reaching Qi Xian’s house, of course I had to greet the people there. Qi Xian’s parents were very nice. Wen Ying was also there. Since her parents were Hokkien, I spoke Hokkien with them.
That night, Louis chatted with me via MSN & I found out that he saw me in the LRT that I boarded. He blamed me for not calling him. He was behind me in the LRT, just behind me, but he did not call me. Even on the bus, we were on the same bus, and yet again, he did not call me. He was again behind me. So tell me, how was I to realise that he was there if my eyes were in front?
The following days in Setapak were quite fun. We went places like Sunway Pyramid: which reminds me of my first meeting with someone & the first time I had lunch with Jason in KL, Green Box Karaoke: sang out my joys & sorrows, Steven’s Corner Pandan Indah: always there with Max, & Bandar Tun Razak’s lake: too many memories to account.
Then it was time to leave KL. It was not good at all. The feeling was heavy & dreary. Things I don’t expect happened after I reach Penang. However, what is there that I can do? I had to move on. The past is gone, I must move on.
