After a Long Time

Bonjour,

After such a long time in the wilderness of studying and college, I finally decided to instigate back blogging. I obtained my admission offer from Newcastle University Medicine Malaysia (it's in Nusajaya, Johor) back in May 2016. That marked a new chapter in my jejune life.
I have to say that it was totally different than I had thought (you know like in the TV dramas) but it was an explicit experience. I met so many weird, interesting, extraordinary and colourful people here. But that's not what I want to bat around. I have finished 2 semesters till present and just started semester 3 three days ago. After so long being hidden in the delusion of my achievements, I just here and now get thoughts in my mind that in fact there are many people who are better than me academically, socially and physically. I had to say that semester 2 was not a plesant experience. It was like going through SPM twice. I thought I had studied all but it was near the exams I felt like I had not done much as I should had. I think I personally have problem of spending too much time of a single chapter in any book for a particular subject. Despite that, I somehow managed to finish all my studying during the exams. Now, I am just waiting for the results which I was told will be released after Chinese New Year holidays. So may God bless me.

I have always have this attitude problem, I would say, that I do not give up even at the last time and I think it has helped extensively to great lengths all these years. What I would like to say all the folks who are reading this: In order to achieve something in your life, you need to work towards it eventhough it requires copious amount of commitment, sacrifices and hardship. I was in Johor Bahru city last Saturday and I decided to pay the JB Gurdwara ( a Sikh temple) a visit. During my short visit to the Gurdwara, I was sitting there alone and thinking hard about my dreams, purposes and goals. One of them was to become better than my peers in academic aspect. Out of the blue, an idea or you could say it as a method popped up. The method involves early preparation, repetition in a designated intervals, constant exercise, becoming inquisitive and of course meditation. I would expound on this method after implenting it and obtaining the results in another post in the near future. Back to the track, as I am approaching the climax of my Foundation course, the university has asked us to send in out medical application forms. I think I am going to do it these coming Chinese New Year which is like 3 days from today and hopefully they will interview me after me. I am still perplexed of how to write the personal statement. I think I am going to read some blogs pertaining this topic and I will make a summary of the interview experience later here.

Oh ya I also decided to start writing blogs again because there are no writing exercises in uni so I don't want my English to deteriote and I think writing blogs coul
d fill the empty gap. I am still in consideration of making vlogs but I don't think that's a good idea as I am introvert lol. Better get back to studying and preparation for tomorrow's presentation.

Bye.
