the one with his first week of fun

the first week of sch was full of weirds and funs... ultimately, i enjoyed my first day of sch... meet sum going-to-be frens... the first day of sch started at 11 am... that will end at 5.... so we had these Microbiology and Infection Control lesson n since it was our first day, we knew that there's only gonna be some briefing on what we're gonna do during these lessons... this lesson is supposed to last 3 hours but the briefing was only 45 mins.... n we left the place with 3 hours and 15 mins of break... so what did we do? eat in the canteen... read in the library... n sleep in the library...

cant reali rememeber the other days of the week except making new frens... kinda fortunate to have a class thats quite happening.... i mean we have to try to make the class interesting and to be remembered off when u graduated... so im happy...

met some weird ppl too... like this guy called 'a-jun'... he got into my class which is the wrong class for him... n stayed for the first week... didnt reali talk much but he's the type of guy who wear thick specs and talks unnecessarily.... it wasnt irritating... it jus made the class laugh... n i dont think he realised it... hahaha.... i dont think he wants to be the funny guy in class... weird..

the one with the small-minded

about two days ago, my brother, helmy and i, played soccer at farrer park.. all of us had a good game... we were up against some middle-aged folks who were slow but very experienced with the ball... so i really had a good game. anyway, we stopped when it got dark... and the three of us went to a small lane where we cleaned ourselves...

helmy knew most of the uncles there so he was always talking to them at the other side of the lane... n one particular uncle asked him what school is he in... "Ngee Ann Poly" was his reply... another question came up which is wat course is he in.. "Mechanical Engineering".... now me and my brother, hafiz, are still cleaning up.. when the same uncle asked helmy what course are we in.... the answer is "Nursing"... there was a SHOCK reaction from him and the others around him... n he continued "well, its ok to be a nurse... but dun be a gay" n they started laughing among themselves....

it doesnt really bother me coz i knew that some ppl always drew a line on how men or women should choose their jobs.... but i would like to suggest that these ppl should leave this outdated mentality and perhaps face reality that every men and women can be whatever they want to be....

that is why, i can bravely say that parts of the malay society are still afraid to make choices... fearing what ppl will say to them... fear that they will lose face... i think if u have fear, den u'll be stuck to the ground, afraid to move forward when ppl all around who are NOT afraid will move forward and shape their future...

im happy with what i chose to be...

the one with his 3 days 2 nights

camp was great

made a lot of new friends... some weird, some lame.. haha... but i enjoyed myself... n dats important for me to have fun... so the first day, i saw a guy fell down the stairs twice in 5 seconds... maybe he was nervous.. imagine what he must be thinking after he got up... he must be thinking "Oh well, what a day to start with! WHY ME????!!!!!!"... n probably cursing fate on his way to the lecture theatre(dats where we report ourselves)

we had some ice-breakers.... i know most of the names... but i couldnt fit the names to the faces... so i kept calling the wrong person... like duh! its only normal when u have freshie camp...
n during the whole 3 days, we got ourselves down n dirty! wahaha... had mud-bath, had food-bath too....

the only bad thing is we didnt have any sleep.... coz we had activites untill the wee hours of the morning... the first night, it lasted till 1... the second night, it lasted till 4.... R we having a Boot Camp or wat????? i mean, where is the logic? it wasnt fun... it irritates us... haha... with the irritation that we got, we showed some "attitude".... hahaha... i just lie down and sleep when the group leader told us to cheer around (dat was at 1am, during the 2nd night)... i didnt want to be rude.... but i just couldnt prevent myself from closing my eyes... n so i slept.

at the end of the camp, we sang songs.. did the chicken dance.. n some of us cried. i think its a celebration for those who r going to leave NP... some of the freshies cried too coz maybe its the mark of a new beginning.. i didnt cry coz i dont know what to cry for...

and thats the end of it.. its not so detailed... there's a lot more...

n u have to go through it...

the one with his feet

who would have thought i would wake up at 6.30 in the morning, had a shower, had breakfast and be sitting in front of the comp to do my blog b4 i go off for my camp? i mean, i dont usually surf the net at 8am...

well, a few more minutes of waiting, n i'll be off... im watching the news on tv rite now, along with reading some other news in the net...

for those of u who missed the morning news show on channelnewsasia, i would like to inform u that we should all take care of our feet... im sorry for those who are flat-footed or have a higher arch... coz this can lead to not only knee problems, but also back problems...

some tips for those who are flat-footed
---> dont wear high heels
---> dont run too much
---> there is way to make ur feet to be comfortable, so visit a podiatrist if u have feet problems or back problems

for those who have higher arc
---> wear high heels

the doctor couldnt finish what he was gonna say next coz the host told him that they didnt have much time left... so read more abt it on the net.

another reason why u should take care of ur feet... coz if u dont, it will smell... n probably rot.


the one with his trip of 3 days

i had a LAZY sunday... practically sleeping all the time.. the first time i got up, i went straight to the showers and after i hav finished, i continue to sleep... the second time i got up is when i would take my lunch n waved my dad goodbye for his part time cab driver job... den continued sleeping...the third time i got up is when i suddenly remembered that i have to pack my things for the camp tomorrow, went to causeway point to buy my sleeping bag and im still up to write my blog... so altogether, i had 18 hours of sleep... n im still tired..

so tomorrow i got to report at 0930 at sch.. im gonna expect the expected... like those "get-to-know-each-other" session...hope to meet some lame ppl like me... lame but not nonsensical... mum forced me to bring a pillow... i told her i got my bag to lie my head on... she told me jus bring it for comfortability's sake.. anyway, maybe i culd offer the pillow to someone else ( for those who cant sleep without pillows).. dat way, i can be like a helpful guy in their eyes... hehe...

so rite now, im beginning to dread the fact that i wont be able to update my blog for the next three days... i dun feel like missing one.. let alone 3... n it also means that i'll have to write long essays to describe my 3 days of socialising... hey! i've already written a GP essay b4.. so it shouldnt be a problem...

i never passed my GP... not even once.

the one with his chance to give

i had a good game of soccer today... playing soccer at the basketball court does excite me in many ways. why? coz i can try out some "fifa streets" cool tricks and moves.. "TRY OUT".. jus to make that clear b4 sumone thinks im jus a show-off... n I'M NOT. the other thing is that, i could keep myself in shape... n im always trying to improve my speed and stamina... coz if u have this, u culd be a good soccer player.. perhaps a better player. as usual, it was fun.. had some laughs during the game coz we did funny stuffs... :)

we had a break session during our play... so while i was sitting down on the court regaining my energy, a friend of mine, Amin, came sit down next to me... i started the conversation.

Me: Hows school, man? heard ur exams is cuming..
Amin: Fine... yeah..it's next week..
Me: good luck! n dun worry abt it too much..
Amin: thx... so, do u have any girlfriend?

at this point of time, this question just reminded me of my past relationship... lets continue...

Me: nope.. not realli into it at the moment... i mean, u know my last relat....
Amin: (cutting me off) yeah.. i know.. u told me abt it...
Me: what abt u? why didnt u have one?
Amin: oh.. its hard lah... u know girls these days are different... ( i cant remember the rest of the sentence)..

anyway, i have a question.... where on earth can i find a nice girl who deserved to be treated nicely by me? yes! i AGREE that ladies should be love and treated nicely... I AGREE that ladies should be given respect from men...

its these some nincompoop Mats that is disgracing ( if there is such a word) the name of men... why the hell u Mats treat girls like trash? even if the girl is a Minah, i do not think that u have the right to destroy her future and ruin her integrity.. i speak on behalf of men who believe that we can give unconditional love to ladies... that they should and will be treated nicely...

lets give a chance to ladies who have been mistreated... bcoz i did. n i still will.

patience will help.

i think ferisha couldnt make it for the soccer game tomorrow.. she has this INSTITUTE DAY at NTU.. i know it'll be tired for her to cum down after the whole thing so i decided to postpone the activity to next week... i told her that i didnt want her to crack her head over this matter... i mean, she's already felt like "urghh" going for THE DAY... so it will be an xtra xtra "urghh" if she's gonna come down... hahaha...

fadhil came over today.. he needed to borrow my controller to play hix xbox... he had a younger sis, so it does feel sucky when ur playin a game and u had ur younger sis watching u play, all bcoz there's only one controller... i hope the both of them are having fun playing as i write this blog rite now.. im having fun too writing this blog... hahaha!! YEHAAA!!! :D

the one with his first time

good morning!

my name's an-nur.... and this is my FIRST TIME writing a blog.... commonly known as "blogging".. i figured why not give it a shot since it's a trend nowadays.. anyway, its good for me to let out some things that i cant really say to someone... actually, there's also some other reasons that made me blog coz i want to write down my journey to success and achievements here... i felt that i need to do sumthing to make me feel SOMETHING! that means i must have HARDWORK in my dictionary. why??? coz i have 2 friends that made me want to do this! a guy and a girl! helmy and erwina - both of whom are hardworking and had a lot of perseverence in them! i admired them in such a way that they should receive a standing ovation! and they shall receive it from me! clap clap clap clap clap! i want my 2 friends to be happy with their lives at this moment and the future! for some reasons, they should...

dad says that i have to becareful in the internet... he's heard the news abt this kid in the US making defamatory remarks... so what else is new? anyway, i have to becareful COZ the internet is full of spyware poo and virus bugs! but thats not important.. these days, anything u say can be scandals, libels, defamatory n whatnots...

can i survive? it remains to be seen.... u may be wondering "survive what?".. to survive in this world, we must be armed with an arsenal of experiences and knowledge... and hardwork is what im gonna do to get it! i can feel the fire in me....

so my day went fine... my fren from my ex-school millennia institute came over to my house coz he need to use the comp and the net to do his project... i said ok n told him to take his time and all the resources i have to do his project... he thanked me profusely.. he said he didnt know how to repay me... i thought it was no big deal... the small matters that affect people in a BIG way :)

im going to NP... to do a course in nursing... i believed this is it... coz i have lived with a principle in my life that i should help people in whatever n however i can... to reach out to ppl n aid them... dats why im looking forward to sch... n i wanted to prove myself right... yeah! PROVE MYSELF RIGHT! i mean, i dont wanna waste my life to slacking or stuffs. i want my life to be meaningful....

dat is why i started this blog.... friday 13 may 2005.... coz one day, i WANT to look back n see this first entry of the blog... knowing i could be someone. can i survive? wish me luck...
