THE RANDOM BLABBING OF MINE ON THE ATTIC THAT NEVER EXISTED... "Till by faith I met HIM face to face And I felt the wonder of HIS grace Then I knew that HE was more Than just a GOD who didn't care Who lived away out there, and Now He walks beside me day by day Ever watching over me lest I stray Helping me to find that narrow way HE's everything to me."

half way there
2 more papers then bye bye 1st semester.
Another cool paper of short and concise notes. Majority of the question directly from the notes but my brain got mixed up with some things so might lose a few marks here and there.
All in all, it was good la. Test our thinking powers by using our own examples...

SSP

Apparently i hurt/injured my supraspinatus (SSP).
Dr asked me, "Now not exam time ah?" I nodded yes "but today no exam paper for me :P"
examine me, inquire more about the injury, ask me to do some movements, identifying where the injury is.
"Oh, you're sports science ah, which part of the shoulder do you know?"
I only know the deltoid, LoL.
"The function of the deltoid is (something about moving shoulder up and down if i recall correctly) anyway it's the rotater cuff that's injured. Just level 1 only, so nothing to worry la"
She brought a plastic rotater cuff and showed me Subscapularis. Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus and Teres. "After your physio, come see me ok"
Just a minor pain on my right shoulders.
Phisioterapist turn now, cik Faizah: OK, pain on your right shoulder, SSP. Did you fall down?
me "i play rugby..."
cik Faizah, " I mean, not during sports"...NO..."Did doctor ask you to rest?" ...nope... "Hah? Dr tak suruh you rest?"... "Dr ada ambil x-ray tak?", "Tak juga?"
Put hot pack 15 minutes then teach me 4 exercises to repeat 10 times. ok done.
back to see the doctor,
The doctor strap my shoulder with kinesio tape. My doctor is a very funny and friendly one.
Dr Stella said, "This tape Lee Choong Wei wore and lost to Lin Dan, but got other athletes who wore this won gold medals..." haha.
This tape reduced the pain and so the doctor told me, "Kinesio tape inhibits your muscle, meaning rest your SSP muscle so that it can heal faster. No pain doesn't mean you're cure ok."
I'm suppose to leave the tape on for 3-5 days.
The Kinesio Taping Method is applied over muscles to reduce pain and inflammation, relax overused tired muscles, and to support muscles in movement on a 24hr/day basis. It is non-restrictive type of taping which allows for full range of motion. For more info on Kinesio taping visit http://www.kinesiotape.ca/whatitdoes.htm

movements during exam ;P
BASIC EXERCISES SCIENCE.
not much notes to read as this class was more to practical learning and many practical test.
The paper was quite cool la as it was structured, fill in the blanks, matching and then identifying.
The first half of the paper was pretty straight forward from the notes but the second half of the paper was crazy as none of it were taught in class nor in the notes. Only 1 guy from my class surely aced the paper as it is his area of sports.
Look at the diagram and then state what is the exercise called and which muscle is working. When it came to this section of the paper, you could see all the sports students doing the action to identify which muscle is involved. LoL. It's quite funny to see students who are in an examination actually imitating the exercise movement on the paper...it looked like we were sending signals to each other. Bicep curls, leg curls, flexion and extensions of arm and feet, adduction and abduction of arm, bending elbow, ect. :D
Anyway, i feel really glad that the exam is only 40%.
30% from practical test and 30% from assignment. So, no matter what, it's a guarantee pass la.

the start of examinations
UM examination officially started on Monday but today only i sat for my first paper:
Information skills aka Kemahiran Maklumat(km). It's the university paper so it's not subject related la but must pass this subject so that can graduate wor.
This year i took 1 university subject only.
Next year I'll be taking 2: Tamadun Islam n Asia(Titas) and English 1.
A big difference in the university papers is that it is compulsory for all UM students to take and PASS, but it will not disturb our overall grades. We also won't know whether we aced it or just passed, cause all we will know is that we pass or failed. Cooler thing is it's just 40 question objective.
Ok, coming back about KM paper.
The lecturer my group got was great, Pn SABARIAH. She's very strict but she's very good in teaching this subject. A really simplified method and really relevant tips like:
1. if you see MANY NUMBERS AT THE END, automatically it's ARTICLE JOURNAL
2. If you see "PAPER PRESENTED AT", automatically it's UNPUBLISHED CONFERENCE Paper
I like the fact that this class has computer objective quizzes too. Here i can check much i understood.
I'm not much of a top student, just an average one in this subject but her tips and the quiz really helped me a lot.
Another fact i don't understand is why people who got higher than me in the mid-test wants me to teach them. I mean they got higher marks than me in the subject thus should by right understand better ma.

haunt the road
I've been haunting the roads lately. Yea, haunting as in Ghost haunting.
The reason being, my file where I keep my notes slip down from the vehicle on the way back home. My notes for 1 subject gone, just like that. My mom's van door has a gap or space at the side of the door...I'm not sure if all vans are like that...hmmm.Just haunting the road, searching for a glimpse of my file, I sort of know that this haunting is in vain. But, there's a part of me who doesn't want to accept reality that the file is gone. You know there's a song by whitney houston.
"There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe"
oh well, Tough luck! better luck next time.
a lesson to remember: always keep a close eye on your things and don't rely too much on technology.

SCC 7s
I scored My first INTERNATIONAL TRY! Woohoo!
We traveled by car to singapore on thursday night and stayed at Rucksack Inn on Hong Kong street. http://www.rucksackinn.com/rucksackinn.html
Singapore Criket Club (SCC) International Rugby 7s tournament.
Friday morning, we walked under the rain to the PADANG, <--that's the venue name wor. Malaysia played against Indonesia in our first game. We won with scoring 45-0. That means 9 tries...yeah, including my try! My first try as a National player! Fuyoh...but, 18 points gone because we failed all 9 conversions, the field was too wet for the ball to bounce ma. Our second game was with Singapore. We lost 29-0. It was kind of my fault la, the Singapore girls used the gap that I created as a winger.
The next day, I played the hooker position (don't think nonsense ok!) , Woah, susah betul, I barely managed to get a single ball out of the scrum. I was kind of lost when we had to realign cause I seldom play as a forward too. Sorry, team Malaysia. XC
An India player tackled me at the neck...ish ish ish. Another time, after I tackled one Indian girl, another Indian girl sat on me and I couldn't move. The referee kept saying "Tackler, roll away. Blue tackler"...I was stuck there la, how to move leh? Haiz...
Anyway, India beat us by 10-0.
The bowl finals(5th n 6th place). We faced Indonesia again. I scored my second try! Wow...
But, i must admit that Indonesia improved a lot when we faced them the 2nd time. We won by 37-0 thus winning the bowl and securing the 5th place in this SCC rugby 7s tournament.
Oh, it's time to study now...My final exam starting on 22nd Nov and ends on 3rd dec.
Time to face the book instead of facebook-ing.

impressions
Then Jodie said I'm sentimental cause I still write letters.
According to Akiko,, Only Emo people can write letters...O.o, impressions...
Most of my college mate who knows me knows that i'm a bit anti-baju kurung...So, every Wednesday they get surprised when they see me wear Baju Kurung.
Yesterday, somebody asked me to smile but don't show my teeth...It was hard. It took a lot of shots to get the shot..hahahaha
Maybe cause I seldom smile nowadays...Most of my smiling pictures can see teeth wan...I guess it's also because of the "Cheese"...can see teeth when we say cheese.

Rajah Mountain
It took about 1 and a half day to reach the peak, more than 16 hours. We camped at night. Ate ration or in malay "rangsum" which is the army food. Hiked in the dark. We could see the first world hotel(the colorful hotel), Genting Highland from the peak of the Rajah mountain.
Walking and walking for so many hours...when will we reach?
I used to love outdoor activities but now i don't understand why i don't enjoy physical activity so much anymore?
more info on d mountain:http://www.ogkl.com.my/infoGUNUNG/infoRajah.htm
Gunung Rajah, Bentong, Pahang
Gunung Rajah ini, satu-satunya gunung di Bentung. Negara pernah gempar dengan berita pendaki-pendaki dipanah petir di puncak gunung ini suatu masa lalu.
Air Terjun Camang
Kawasan rekreasi air terjun ini sering dikunjungi orang ramai. Walaupun jalan berturap ke air terjun ini agak sempit namun kemudahan tempat letak kereta yang disediakan cukup besar. Gerai-gerai dan kemudahan awam lain turut disediakan disini terutama pada hari minggu dan cuti umum. Pendaki boleh bermandi-manda di jeram deras tetapi awas air pusar dibawah air terjun ini.
Trek ke gunung ini mula dari jalan balak tinggal 1KM sebelum tiba ke Air Terjun Camang. Namun bagi pendaki yang ingin memulakan pendakian dari Air Terjun Camang, boleh memintas trek balak tersebut dengan mendaki bukit di belakang Pejabat Ranjer hingga ke trek balak. Walaupun trek untuk mendaki bukit ini agak mencanak tetapi rata-rata sepanjang trek balak adalah landai sahaja.
![]() |
| Formasi gunung dilihat dari permatang |
Setengah jam berjalan pendaki akan melintas satu penempatan baru orang asli, trek balak agak mendaki sedikit, awas anjing yang datang ke arah anda. Seterusnya pendaki akan melalui zon pokok orkid ungu yang tumbuh sepanjang tepi trek hingga satu kawasan lapang (bekas kongsi tinggal). Kenalpasti trek ke gunung memandangkan ada beberapa simpang disini.
Trek kemudian agak redup tapi masih di bekas trek balak, checkpoint seterusnya cuma bekas tapak khemah kecil (kem site pertama), dari sini pendaki boleh melihat puncak G. Rajah, beberapa langkah kedepan ada anak sungai merentangi trek. Beberapa minit perjalanan seterusnya ada satu simpang denai tidak jauh disebelah kiri.

Setengah jam kemudian pendaki akan bertemu sungai berjeram. Pendaki perlu meneruskan pendakian dengan melintas sungai ini. Awas juga, air sungai ini akan menjadi deras apabila hujan dihulu. Walaupun sungai ini bukan sungai Y tapi pertemuan sebatang sungai lagi disini seperti huruf Y.
![]() |
| Air terjun mini, sumber air terakhir |
Air Terjun Naning/Nading
Air terjun ini merupakan checkpoint seterusnya kira-kira setengah jam dari cross sungai pertama. Kem site berada seberang sungai di bahagian atas air terjun Naning berdekatan dengan sungai. Air sungai dingin dan nyaman tapi awas air sungai akan menjadi begitu deras apabila hujan di hulu. Trek dari air terjun ke agak landai, pendaki tidak perlu menggunakan tangan mahupun dagu untuk memanjat.
3-5 jam trekking dari Air Terjun Nading, pendaki akan tiba puncak satu permatang, jika cuaca baik dan cerah pendaki akan nampak dinding batu yang membentuk formasi gunung Rajah serta puncaknya. Berada diatas puncak bermakna pendaki perlu turun ke lurah sebelum mendaki kembali. Cabaran seterusnya adalah mendaki dinding batu 90 darjah tegak. Tali yang sedia diikat membantu pendakian.
Sumber air terakhir (Last Water Point) berada tidak jauh dari trek, deruan air terjun mini boleh didengari. Hanya beberapa langkah dari trek pendaki boleh pergi mengambil air bekalan. Setengah jam berikutnya pendakian agak mencanak, pendaki perlu menggunakan tangan untuk memanjat dan memaut pada akar-akar yang merentangi trek hingga sampai ke puncak.
![]() |
| Batu sfera di puncak |
Kem site puncak berada tidak jauh sebelum pendaki sampai ke puncak gunung. Panorama di puncak menarik dengan sudut pandangan 360 darjah serta angin di puncak bertiup dingin. Puncak ditandakan dengan satu batu tanda seperti bola / sfera terbenam ditengah batuan di puncak.
log:
Air Terjun Chamang - rumah orang asli - 1/2 jam
rumah org asli - kem site pertama - 1 jam
kem site pertama - coss sg pertama 1/2 jam
cross sg pertama - Air Terjun Naning - 1/2 jam
Air Terjun Naning - puncak permatang, 3 jam
puncak permatang - last water point - 1 jam
last water point - puncak Rajah- 1/2 jam.

silly me
My camera was inside the washing machine without me realizing.
It was in from the beginning of the wash all the way to the end. A full wash of 80 minutes. Turbo dry. Medium water pressure. Not to forget that there was Detergent mixture in the wash too.
My camera was full with battery and memory card. Wrapped inside the camera cover.
I guess the fact that the camera was inside the cover, so less damaged by the spinning and less impact on the camera body especially the screen.
How did it get into the washing machine? I left my camera in my laundry bag. I just chuck out all the content of the bag into the washing machine. My camera was the last to be put inside the bag therefore the first to fall inside the washing machine and the weight of the camera help it get to the bottom part of the washing machine.
bottom part means the first to be immersed in water and therefore the longest period to be immersed in water.
Only when i was taking out the clothes to be dried did I see my camera!
Aiyah...so how?
Take out the battery and memory card... let all 3 dry. Didn't touch it for a week already. Battery sort of rusted. Buy new battery. Luckily i Didn't use rechargeable battery or not really wasteful to throw the battery away loh. Can on but cannot function normal thus meaning not dry enough la. Gonna leave it for 1 more week to dry

pay

Ptptn money has come in :)
but my account is not fully cleared :(
Ptptn didn't pay rm260.40...
This UM also quite bad one, first say they won't charge if we add and drop course during the add and drop period...see, see, they bluff only. Besides that, Suddenly only UM charge extra for pelarasan and extra tuition fee for the added subject discreetly, no notification.
In the beginning UM charged about RM2400++, then now suddenly UM charging me RM 2600.
Um website also one more thing, one page said i owe nothing, another page said i owe rm1.60, Another page said i owe rm260.40. I also don't know which one to believe but better langsaikan the biggest amount to be safe la.

asgmt
Don't get me wrong, the class was not boring. It was a Wednesday. Palapes day meaning wake up at 5pm and full day of classes till night at 10pm ish. Tired, sleepy.
Fighting the urge to sleep is tough!
There was a fire drill again in University but this time, it was at my faculty: sports centre.
Assignment, assignment. Something to comment about! My group was the last to pass up the assignment and we passed it up LATE! The lecturer asked me why? My group was the first to get the assignment but last and late to pass it up.
My tears in my eyes were so ready to flood down. ;'(
My group is made up of 3 members; me and 2 guys.
My group have not even printed out the assignment! I felt like a really unlucky person.
Do you know why? Well, I already did my part and gave it to my other team members to edit or add pictures or combined with whatever they were to do or come up with. I gave the info last month already! Last month!
Every time I ask them to meet up to discus or find info, they will have fantastic reasons and tell me not to worry la...They are very busy with their own uni life activities...Happening people...haha. So, I just take my own initiative to do whatever I can.
Last week I reminded them that we have to pass up the project today. They didn't seem to care, "Aiyah, still got time lah"
Yesterday, I reminded them to print out. Then one of the guy keep sms-ing me, asking me what to do. I was like,"Hello! I did my part, now it's your turn to do yours. The least you can do is find some pictures. Use your rational la, do whatever you want to do. Please stop asking me what to print and what to do. Every single thing also ask me. Like as though I'm a bossy perfectionist and everything need my permission and it's my masterpiece."
Actually maybe, he wants to be spoon fed or if anything goes wrong, can just say "Hilda suruh"
Today morning in class, when everyone was handing up the project, my group not yet even print out!
You know what? Both the boys didn't do anything! On top of that, one of the guy deleted my document from his pen drive...luckily the other guy and I still had the soft copy in ours. I also thank God the lecturer gave us 20 minutes break. So print the at least 3/4 of the assignment! Didn't print out in color some more! Haiz! Due to the unprinted methodology and front cover, so we still could not hand in the project.
During the break, they kept asking me what to do and what to print...I feel frustrated inside but outwardly i kept my cool and didn't show it.
After everyone except us handed in their assignment, they had to do presentation verbally and I was so ready for it but the lecturer didn't let our group, because we did not pass up the assignment yet and most probably my fellow group mates would not be able to answer any question or explain anything about our presentation since they didn't do anything...I felt really down ;( :( XC
after a few hours when the class was over, we handed in everything i did. What they did? Last second(not even minute) of Finding UM logo, writing our names on the front cover and pay for the project printing!

softball vs rugby
To be honest, i was the worst in catching balls and throwing balls in my team. Not enough people, so I was selected loh.
I came out with my theory that softball is more dangerous than rugby. I sprain both my ankle, and scape my right knee...sliding to home base when opponent standing or sitting on the home base without the ball. So, terseliuh ankle n terkikis skin...
Another incident is the flyball landed on a pitcher's head. OUCH! tears all flooded out.
Softball ball is hard and small. It is often hit by the bat or thrown by hand, in both cases the fast traveling of the ball increases the pain level if one gets in contact with the ball with no protection.
Whereas in rugby, the ball is bigger and even if thrown or kick at a high speed, the pain caused by direct contact without protection is less compared to the softball ball.
Ok, rugby is a lot of contact with people...i think people contact is still less dangerous than a hardball hitting you at a high speed lor.
so here's the question,
which is more dangerous?
A small hard ball flying at you at a high speed or people trying to make you fall to the ground?

uplifting day
"When you fall down, get back up smooth like a hero, not like an elephant..LoL."
i'm not sure what the cause is, but yeah, if you're going through a period of 'dryness'... I'm sure you know, God is still with you, just as He is in other times, and He definitely loves you just the same.
don't let yourself slip away from spending time with the person that loves you most. but don't let yourself feel guilty over not spending enough time with Him etc. He's not a slave driver as far as i know, otherwise I'd be a total failure as well :).
hope things work out for you, and that you'll feel His love for you even at this moment. He loves you unconditionally!"
I feel so terharu that got so many strangers uplifting me and giving me encouragement.
Besides that, the blo
gpost was written on march 3rd, 2010 but the comments were still flowing till august 20th.there was some comments that said they feel happy reading my post and can't wait for my next post.
however there were 2-4 comments which were not relevant...the comments on my post were too many that these certain people thought it's a chatbox..LoL.

changed
As i enter Uni life, many things changed.
I don't like to smile anymore...
No semangat anymore..
much thin and less appetite..
easily tear,
almost don't seem to care about things,
Feel like giving up and letting go easily but the voice inside my head tells me, "Come on, you're better than that, you know you still can carry on, Don't give up just because of little things."
To be serious, I wanted to Keluar baris aka Quit Palapes Laut...NOt because of the rigouros activity but simply because of the fact they are trying to Malay-ized me. Must put hand up when they pray, must wear long sleeve, must wear innerwear aka the hand sleeve to cover aurat....maybe next time, they will tell me to wear tudung! Besides that, i also wanted to quit Navy because it really takes away my sports time...Sukmum-->SUKan Mahasiswa UM and rugby trainings or rugby competitions la.
By the way, SUKMUM started already. It's like a month long of sports day...inter college sports la...when i say college i mean the hostel in UM aka Kolej Kediaman(KK). There are 12 KK in UM, I'm living in the 11th. The whole month of October is SUKMUM
People are telling me that I changed and most often these changes they refer to are negative. They said Kecewa, disappointed and sad with me.
I tell you, I'm also kecewa with myself.
I never knew I can change so negative so fast.
Deep inside i know that The main cause of this negative changed is the JOY of my Heart has gone, I neglected HIM.

halau some1 4rm their own room
Then it's followed by a series of class/lectures. Lunch break and then lectures till evening. Break for dinner and then class till 10pm.
Now that's what you call full time student! LoL
So, by the time the day ends, i feel cranky...recently one of my room mate was chatting with her friend through some chat application like skype on a wednesday night all the way to Thurday 3am...About 3am, I told her to go to the study room and chat cause there's no one there. I wanted to sleep la, if she did it on a friday or weekends I really wouldnt mind.

After that, i felt really bad la...it's like I halau-ing a person out of her own room! Maybe I'm selfish and don't know how to tolerate? After all, it is her room, she should be allowed to do whatever she wants.
Now I know that i don't have enough patience...feel really sad and a bit of regret that I did what i did. Need to learn to control myself more.
