Busy busy busy

Wheeee~~~


I can't go online much these days because I have TONNES of homework and research to do >_<


Overall uni life is awesome. I'm still waiting for my allowance which according to the seniors will come out at mid or at the end of september.. NO!!!~~ I need the money T_T 


How am I supposed to live for 2 months without it?? Uni life demands payment and stuffs.. I just don't have any at the moment.. T_T


In UBD I hang out mostly with the girls, which is awesome to me =D And a new beginning since I hardly do that. I spend 12 hours with them everyday. They are Hajah Hanisah and Ramizah. I really like to hang out with them because they're really nice. And we always do study group to review our research and lectures. Its really helpful.


Usually between class interval (usually an hour), I would get kidnap either by Ridhwan or Marvin. HAHAHAHA Ridhwan is a really talented dancer, he's from ISB but then study in Melbourne Australia for his A levels. He's cool, friendly and a Yu-Gi-Oh champion. Marvin is a third year undergraduate student, a close friend of Rid who's now a close friend of mine XD He's chinese, funny, friendly and also a Yu-Gi-Oh duelist. They're far more experienced than me, I've just started out lately and joined the Duelist Alliance (Brunei). Anyway so yeah from time to time I'll hang out with them =D


Influenced by Marvin I join the Brunei-Japan Friendship Association (BJFA), a registered under the UBD chapter and the Japanese Embassy. Basically its like a Japanese club but if there's anything going on in the country involving Japan and Brunei, this association will handle it. How cool is that?? Being a registered member I find myself mingling with them every now and then. The high committees are cool!!~~ And funny~~ We even have sungkai together (Sungkai = break fast, since we're in the fasting month of Ramadhan). Aww man the sungkai was awesome!!~~


We just dine out together last wednesday, though I'm the only junior >_< There were a total of 20 of us.All of them order buffet, except me XD I won't be able to finish it anyway.. AHHAHAH plus Marvin Senpai was the one who's paying for my meal so I want to be conservative but its true, one bowl of chicken teriyaki don and miso soup can easily make me full =D


I've enrolled for Japanese language class too and I have the advantage since I always speak and write in Japanese. The class was really easy for me and I'm aiming to get straight A!!~~ At the same time Ramizah is in the same class with me.I would love to help her score too!!~~


Ahh in the class there's this one girl, Ren, so cute.. >_< She's almost at the same level as me, really fluent in Japanese but I dunno if she can write well.. I wanted to make her my friend but I don't have the courage to talk to her yet. Another one is Mura, a third year student, I really love his sense of fashion. He's the leader of DevianArt in Brunei. So.. I wish I could be in his cosplay team. I'll call him Mura-sama~~~


I was a bit late in enrolling the class because Minako sensei gave me a test to know my Japanese proficiency. Then only would she let me in her class. That's why I only entered the class starting from week 3. The students are of course wondering who I am. In school everybody calls me Shin. And since I always wear formal work outfit, everybody thought I'm chinese.Partially true.


There is this one incident last Thursday. I was wearing loose black blouse with black and white stripe tie, black pants and I let my hair loose. I folded the arm and carry a one-shoulder backpack. Hmm.. to me the outfit was just normal, like really not stylish, just lazily dress like that. I didn't know that to everyone I look cool "-___-


Ramizah said I looked like a pretty boy and she likes it. According to my guy friend, "You turned me on!!" and I'm just like.. ok.. .. .. ..  Then Japanese class, everyone was staring at me.. I was like.. "Cut it out already.. Mura-san dressed even better "-__- "


Basically .. Me + Crossdress = People go wow.. "-__- 


My hair was not even short and I didn't even bind. HAHAHAHHA I don't even consider my outfit that day  as an attempt to crossdress. I just merely sticking to the Uni's code of "if you don't want to wear Baju Kurung, wear formal" which is what I did. 


Worst thing after that mum and dad brought me out to sungkai, my hair was really getting in the way so I tie it like a bun. My brother was having his meal with his friend at the restaurant across. After that he went to the Mall and we waited outside. I went out to buy earrings at Ego Fashion. While I was searching for one, a woman came to me and asked me, "How much is this?" And I go.. "Me? 0__0"


She thought I was one of the salesgirls.. "-__- I was still wearing the outfit since class ended at 5. Nevertheless I got my earrings!!~~ And I'm still thinking if I should pierce my left ear more.. .. hmm.. Maybe not.. but maybe yes =D

Music class yesterday was fun!!~~ Since the Trinity Guild Hall exam is coming up in November, my tutor decided to prepare me earlier. For practical I have to play three songs and another three for section 2 I believe. And I've played perfectly two songs already, moving on the third song next week. And September is coming up, which means the rehearsal for the Rock Concert in November will start soon. And I haven't even memorized the songs yet >_< I'm just accompanying the rock school in two of their songs. A.k.a. I'll get the chance to make more friends =D


I have to admit I still have the hots for Calvin. A tutor, but but but he's just like an idol to me? Like how I idolized Xian Junsu. *melting*


Speaking of Junsu... OMG!!!! His music video for Intoxification is so.. @_@  *nosebleed* I love the choreography!!~~ An memorized them already... HAHAHAH seriously so SEXY!!!

Uni life

Wohooo~~~ Sorry late update guys. I've been busy last week with the university. 


How's everybody so far? =D


My weeks are just packed. Last week was Fresher's Week, basically the undergraduates went through orientation. Briefing every morning and afternoon. Really tiring (and even now I'm too lazy to update with full detail)... By the time I got back home I ended up falling asleep after dinner. Every night I fall asleep before 9 >_<


I even hardly went online and I know some of you guys might be wondering where am I. Overall I got accepted into the university under the Institute of Health Science. I'm doing a Bachelor of Health Science, specifically in biomedical science. The subject consists of 3 different modules for this semester and we're supposed to register them again online for this semester. In addition to that we have to make up the modular credit not less than 12 MCs per semester. So my three major modules make up to 10MCs... I took MIB (compulsory breadth) and Japanese languagae (breadth).


Ok Major core is a compulsory core/module for my degree. Breadth module is an optional course that we could take up in order to make up our MCs. Altogether I'm sitting for 18 MCs. If all goes well I'm aiming to get all 18MCs by the end of this semester which is December.


Other than that I'm under the GenNext program. Its a new program in the university. Their aim is to not only train undergraduates to be academically successful while acquiring essential skills for future survival as a human being. Its really interesting. My degree is 4 years, full-time. As I'm a Gen-X, during my 3rd year, if my grades are good, they'll send me overseas for two semesters.


They're ranking our grade using GPA (Grade Points), 5 being the maximum and 0 as fail. I want to aim at least 4.5 for all my subjects. 
















The university of Brunei Darussalam is really huge. Getting from one class to another took exactly 10mins of walking. Here's a map to my university. My faculty is the IM (Institute of Medicine), now known as PAP Hajah Rashidah Institute of Health Sciences. 


Here's my schedule, roughly...


Monday: IHS (IM).
Tuesday: IHS, Lecture Hall, Language Centre, IHS
Wednesday: IHS
Thursday: IHS


Imagine me walking from one faculty to another. Really exercise.. HAHHAHAHA


click here to surf the website. University of Brunei Darussalam. I'm under GenNEXT.


Nevertheless the library is huge!!~~~ And really high technology!!! Everything involves computer and machines. Finding the books, borrowing them, returning them.. up to a point of reading them. Some are e-books.


Now this intrigued me to buy a Nintendo DS XL. Why? Because I'm a gamer and because Nintendo DS supports e-books. People advised me to buy an itouch or an ipad instead but I don't want to. I want a macbook as my laptop (currently I'm just sharing the laptop with my dad). Plus I don't want to carry so many heavy books to do research because yeah since I'm studying biomedical sciences, we need a lot and lots of references.. I prefer e-books >_<


Some also told me to use my allowance to get a car. Which I stubbornly do not want to. Mum and my bro however suggested I should ride a bike to school. As in a scooter maybe or a small motorcycle. That'll be awesome!!!! Then again we practice MIB here (Melayu Islam Beraja), and for a girl to ride a bike, people will seriously stare at you here and then nasty gossip would spread. Not that I mind them at all, I'm worried about rainy days. I'm worried about the books.


Besides I need the allowance money to buy myself some books and support my music school. That's my most top priority, supporting my music school. My next class should be this Friday, I've prepared some money for it as well.


Ridhwan (Red) is accepted into UBD. I'm so happy man!!!~~~ Red!!~~~ I want to help him get through the registration smoothly, since he got his offer later than most of us. This week we've started studying, him? Still going here and there for his registration. Alongside with Kage Senpai XD


I love to hang out with them. Its really fun~~~


Last Saturday we had a Fresher's Night at my faculty. We were divided into groups and I'm in Pink. There were at least 16 of us and we were given the task to perform a short sketsa. Its a competition. Its really fun~ I get to meet now people from different faculty and programmes. But because of that, we work 6 days a week last week. Really tiring. 


Here are some of the pictures.


This is the Pink team. I'm wearing pink tudong.
The one behind me, black T-shirt is my long-distance cousin, Aeriena.
The guy besides me is our leader, Didi.


This is Fahmi, from Orange Team. He's my inspiration.
Because of his style and personality, I am able to create multiple characters for my novel and comics.
And Fahmi is cool and kind-hearted.



This is Koh Junyuu. Chinese. Kind-hearted and I have to say.. Cute XD
He's in my team. He really reminds me of my old nemesis.. But Junyuu is a far more better friend.


We have two choices of clothes to wear for university. Either like the one I'm wearing or wearing Brunei's traditional clothing, Baju Kurung, with Tudong, because we're muslims. 

Alright its, 9.30PM here and I hardly play any games nowadays. I wanna knock myself out playing game until around 11? HAHAHHA I have lecture tomorrow morning, must sleep early. Night!~~
