college life

Hello, my precious. >:-)


As promised, here is the post about my experience in PTEM so far. Basically, I got accepted for the first cohort (if you haven't figured that out yet) I was rather doubtful at first as to whether I should accept it or not but I did in the end. I mean hey, if you have an opportunity, why not?


I felt like a zombie on the first day of school because I couldn't sleep at all the night before (I was out late at night partying lol jks but srsly tho) but literally, I did not have any sleep whatsoever. The moment I was about to fall asleep was the moment my alarm rang. So yeah.


Knowing me, I was practically freaking out in public and of course the people I call friends pretended, or shall I say, decided to not acknowledge my existence in order to keep their 'cool' (except Syaza and Firzanah. They were nice HAHA) I couldn't help it okay. I didn't have any sleep, my adrenal glands decided to secrete an abnormally large amount of adrenaline in my veins so I was panicking AND I was having a culture shock.


I've never seen so many Malays in my life. No offense.


Anyway, other than that, things went smoothly for the following week. I mean, despite getting lost in an insanely huge building that's maybe five times the size of SAS, being really unobservant towards my surroundings resulting me bumping into the senior art students' art sculptures various of times, the amount of homework we get and maybe humiliating myself and everyone seen hanging around with me (poor them) in front of everyone else due to my guffaw of a laugh, college life is good so far. YES!


But unless some miracle happens and hell freezes, I'm still awkward as ever. Hence I've only made around three new friends.


 And here's a few pictures involving PTEM (kind of)



Hanis, Lyana and I being sakai on our first day. Syaz wasn't with us because she was still in KL






 
This is a only a PART of the school. The building is just too damn long ok









the food available at the canteen are mostly unhealthily good but at least we have sushi...





It's nice attending a college that's in the middle of nowhere. No traffic. No congestion. No rush hours. The facilities are great. The teachers are not so bad themselves. People are friendly once you get to know them (lol I should probably socialise outside my usual group a bit more) Plus it's located near the beach so whenever you feel like escaping school...... LOL NO. I'M NOT BADASS ENOUGH. SORRY.


As I was saying, I feel like I'm in Narnia or something. 


By the way, good luck to those starting college at Katok tomorrow!! *cough* twins *cough* Be prepared for a bit of chaos and whatnot. :-)

Truth

everything's not the same anymore. 

I'm like an erupting volcano, but no biggies, the tsunami tides in my eyes will wash it away. No hate and judgement tho. spread the love people.

Bittersweet Goodbyes

What's up people!!! First for most, Merry (belated) Christmas from me, Huiling, and the rest of the soulsisters!! How was your Christmas? Fun ? Hahaha. Christmas was fun for me this year and indeed, it was full of surprises.

27th Dec 2012, our friend, Yen flew off to Australia for his studies. It was a very bittersweet departure. Like everyone else, I didn't want Yen to leave. But, it is what's best for him and his future. His flight was at 12.45pm but we were already at the airport before 10am so we went to Jolibee/Delifrance for breakfast while waiting for Yen.

Yen's guy friends went, a lot of them. If anyone of the guys were to tear up, I definitely will accompany him. I was already at the edge. I felt extra weight added on my chest and I was breathing rather normally. We took lots of pictures till the groups of Indons and Indians thought Yen was a celebrity. It was really rude of one Indon when he took our (the soulsister and Yen) picture. Further more, he ran just right after he took the picture of us. But no worries, Syaz, being the bravest among all of us, told one of the police officer on duty and the Indon erased all the pictures of us that he took.


 I went back home early 'cause my mom was around that area and she was alone. LOL. Sorry but there's no pictures here to be uploaded cause it's all on Instagram. Hahaha. Follow me @huiling_ or any other soulsisters' account and you'll find out more!

Other than that, I went to KK for a sweet memorable holiday sensation~ OHYEA. And if you know me well, it simply means SHOPPING TILL MY LEGS COME OFF. But this time I didn't really shop much cause I went there only for 4 days and 3 nights. One day was spent for a good time at the beach. I went to Pulau Sapi (Sapi Island) and it's a good place for snorkling. My next destination would be Mermaid Island, which takes about 2hrs to reach from the bay.

There were a lot of Koreans this time, my sis even took a pic of the korean baby. Can't blame her, he's one cute baby. HAHA. We went from 9.30 am till 3pm. It was bloody hot in the morning but dark clouds covered up the sky before 3pm. After the beach, we went back to the apartment to change and clean up. Guess what's next? Shopping of course! I only saw Fi on the last day there. HAHA. We didn't take a picture cause I was too busy shopping for shoes. LOL

Now, enough of my blabbing. 





If you're thinking that I'm using my 550D, you're wrong. A DSLR is very bulky and heavy though it has an awesome lens and macro effect. I brought my Canon PowerShot SX40 HS with me on the trip this time.. again. HAHA. I brought it when I went to KL in Form4(2011) and Sibu in Form5(2012). The thing I like about this camera is it's FishEye lens. Other than that, it's ability to zoom in really far away unlike my DSLR which can zoom in only a few cm away. Besides, it can function like one DSLR. Hehe. I was really reluctant to leave KK, I guess everyone gets that feeling when the vacation is over. But I'm looking forward to go KK again even though I've been there more than 10 times in my life. HAHA. I go KK more often than I go back to my own hometown, shame to say.

When I came back, I went to cut my hair. Yeap, I'm no longer having a long-lengthy hair. Now it's back to short-length hair HuiLing, just like in Form3(2010). HAHA. I just thought it's been awhile I'm with the same hair, about 3 years now, it's time for a change. Change is good but being yourself is what matters. :)

Last but not least, I wish you a prosperous year ahead and have a great new year! May 2013 be another great year! I wish as we, the soulsisters, go our own ways we will be closer than yesterday!

Alright, till next time, cheerio!

Huiling signing off~
