My Ties

Am home for one week and everything is good.. I got good food, less expenses and time to myself.. And today, my ties had a nice spa and sunbath..

Checkpoint

I have reached yet another checkpoint of my university life.. Semester 7 was over and soon it will be semester 8, our last in IMU.. In a blink of eyes, i have already spent 3 1/2 years in IMU.. It was just like yesterday when we had our own orientation.. Then we organised an orientation for our juniors.. A year after that, we looked at how our juniors oriented the grandjuniors and the cycle continued with our grandjuniors orienting our great grandjuniors..

Flew back to Kuching today after spending a few days with Xinni in KL.. It was a bit weird as both of us headed to the airport together, checked in and boarded the plane at the same time.. The only difference was the destination.. She took the plane heading north to Penang while i took another one heading south east towards Kuching..

I still have another two weeks to go before i finally embrace my last semester as an undergraduate.. Shall i clarify here that i don't actually work in the hospital during my attachment.. Different from other courses where attachment means 'to work', i am going to be in the hospital to clerk cases. In another words, i will be looking for real case scenarios to study on.. So, it's not about working there but to expose ourselves to our future workplace..

It's going to be tough in Sem 8, but i believe each of us in B107 will be tougher..

Aloha sem 8!!! Nice to meet you....

My second BNF

Three and a half years ago i got my first BNF, the 49th series... I got it for free after registering with the Malaysian Pharmaceutical Society (MPS)... I bet most of us from B107 never really appreciate it, perhaps because we got it for free.. Humans are weird... We don't appreciate things that comes for free but when u spend your own money on it, you'll definitely appreciate it more..

Now, i really appreciate my BNF as it made me RM99 poorer... BNF59 i love you so much!!

Uniqlo so unique

It has been a while since i last blogged.. This is how i always start my entry with and i did it again...

Today i went to Fahrenheit88, another new shopping centre in town.. The previous KL plaza was given a facelift to become the current Fahrenheit88.. To start with, the opening of Uniqlo today was the main thing that has actually brought us there.. Uniqlo was not that unique afterall.. It's just like another Giordano, Cotton On or perhaps topshop.. Somehow, the marketing team did a great job in publicity and managed to drag so many people there including aunties and uncles..

So, I reached there at around 10.50am, 10 minutes before the opening.. When i looked at the entrance of Uniqlo from pavillion, indeed i saw a lot of people, but still, it was acceptable to me..

But as we walked through the main entrance of Fahrenheit88, something wasn't right... The queue outside was actually only a small part of the whole crowd.. And the line stretched to the inside of the building.. Believe me, the crowd almost took up the whole ground floor...

I wasn't actually that into Uniqlo.. Been to one of the franchise in Singapore and it was so so only.. But i do like some of the clothings in Uniqlo.. Almost left with andrew for lunch after looking at the crowd but in the end we joined in the hype.. Had a nice 4-5 hours of queue with bunch of friends before finally entering the shop..

Well, we've got quite a good bargain.. I managed to buy some clothings for myself and xinni..

And there were two things that i salute Uniqlo..

First, i would like to have their marketing team if i own a company next time.. They have really suceeded today..

Second, they managed to poison Malaysians' mindset into thinking that they are living in a four seasons country. Yes, a lot of them bought jackets of one inch thick and shirts that actually generate heat in Malaysia.. Good buy....
