Facts about Virgo errr… Me

#Virgo would prefer to keep to themselves than make unnecessary small talk or be in an awkward situation.

#Virgos are very strong minded but always worried about being good enough.

#Virgos are not the overly mad/angry type. They're more of the overly annoyed type.

#Virgos have a keen sense of seeing through a person's lies and BS, but they usually don't like making people look stupid.

Never underestimate a #Virgos "eye." They pay attention to the smallest things and when you thought it went unnoticed, they saw it.

#Virgos are not cold and unemotional people. They are reserved and don't associate with people they don't care for.

A #Virgo could be totally confident in a decision and 5 minutes later go back and forth in their head on whether they should do it or not.

You only have so many chances with a #Virgo, they take a step away with every inconsiderate thing you do

Sometimes a #Virgo will care less, to see if you'll care more.

Ignoring #Virgo will get you nowhere but erased and replaced.

Muslim and His Neighbor: Melakans

Before this I heard many things about orang Melaka. They said orang Melaka don’t like Johoreans, they are very rude when talking to others, bila orang datang ke rumah dia sambut dengan “puji-pujian” dulu lepas tu baru dipelawanya masuk. Either all those things are true or not, you have to meet one truly pure Melakans and be friend with them only then you can know things for sure. *smile*

For me, I have been staying in Melaka for almost 5 months now and so far I think Melaka is a very nice place to stay. The people here are nice too. There was one time when I was on my way back walking to the hostel from  Melaka General Hospital, one Pakcik offered me a ride to the hostel.  At that moment I was like faith in humanity is restored. *smile* I feel comfortable to say “morning uncle!” to the uncle at the grocery shop and to my new neighbors. This morning only when I sapu sampah kat luar, the uncle next door say morning to me and we had a morning talk macam makcik-makcik in those typical Malay dramas, I was cleaning the drain and he was watering the flowers (hehehe). When people are being nice to us, smile, say hello, you’ll feel happy and it makes your day even more wonderful and ceria kan.

Kita hidup bermasyarakat kena la “mesra alam”, bukan dengan geng-geng kita je, dengan orang berlainan agama dan bangsa pun kita kena mesra juga la. Because some people are not like that, they restrict their good treatment only to neighbors who are related to him or who are Muslims. There was a story, Abdullah ibn  Amr had a sheep salughtered and he asked his slave,

“Did you give some meat to our Jewish neighbor? For I heard the Prophet say, ‘Jibreel kept on enjoining the good treatment of neighbors to the extent that I thought he would include neighbors as heirs,” (Bukhari and Muslim)

“Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them, for Allah loves those who are just.”  (Quran 60:8)

So be nice to those people around you, smile to them, InsyaAllah people will be nice to us and our loved ones.

Legoland Malaysia

Last Saturday we went to Legoland Malaysia in Nusajaya. I took the bus from Masai to JB Sentral and then pay RM23 for the cab to AEON Bukit Indah. We had our breakfast there. Around 9.30am we made our way to Legoland Malaysia, wooohhooooo!!! The entrance fee (RM140) for adult, luckily we had Legoland vouchers so we don’t have to pay for the full ticket price.

Once I entered the park, I feel like 15 years younger *hehehe*. There are boat ride, roller coaster, large scale Lego statues, 4D studio, etc. but we didn’t play all the games, banyak jalan-jalan cuci mata je~ One thing that I like the most is the Miniland. The details of the structures were superb!!! Feel like having one of those in my home later *cewah*

Mini Reunion #SDARians #ZeroDeuxSix

22-24hb Februari 2013, saya berpeluang bejumpa dengan kawan-kawan rapat daripada SDAR. Mini reunion je, tak ramai pun. Asalnya ingatkan dapat berkumpul  5 orang, tapi bila sampai tarikh yang dijanjikan cuma dapat berkumpul 3 orang sahaja, saya, Atif dan Paan. Aniq dan Mat Ker tak dapat nak datang atas beberapa sebab yang tak dapat nak dielakkan. Takpelah mungkin lain kali boleh berjumpa lagi, masing-masing dah duduk dekat-dekat, nak jumpa bila-bila masa roger je yang lain. *senyum*

Kali terakhir saya berjumpa dengan Atif adalah 3 tahun lepas dan Paan 2 tahun lepas, jadi boleh kata rindu habis la *gelak* (tiada maksud tersirat). Macam biasa, bila dah lama tak berjumpa tak sah kalau tak cerita balik kisah-kisah lama masa zaman sekolah dulu, sakit perut gelak berdekah-dekah #IniSemuaSalahAtif. Entah kenapa, setiap kali berjumpa mesti kitorang pergi ke MidValley (datang jauh-jauh jumpa dekat mall!!??), main bowling (atif dah banyak improve) dan tengok wayang. Ingatkan hari tu nak bergerak ke lowyatt tapi bila hari dah petang, masing-masing mata dah berat jadi kitorang pun balik Bangi lepas makan tengah hari, sampai ada yang terlentok-lentok dalam komuter masa balik. *berdekah*

Malam tu kitorang lepak sekali dengan kawan-kawan paan dekat mamak, main bowling (LAGI!!??) dan lepas tu gerak ke Bukit Ampang yang mana saya baru pertama kali sampai. Tak buat apa pun kat situ, cuma duduk-duduk sembang-sembang sambil tengok pemandangan malam *cantik*. Esoknya, kitorang lepas makan tengah hari terus bergerak ke Putrajaya jumpa kawan-kawan matrik saya pula. Terima kasih la Atif sanggup datang jauh bawak moto daripada Ipoh semata-mata untuk mini reunion ni. Bila dah berjumpa kerja asyik makan aje kitaorang ni, agaknya memang dah genetic budak SDAR kuat makan kot hehehe. Hopefully next mini reunion dapat pergi vacation kat mana-mana dengan diorang ni, masa tu jangan ada yang makin "mengembang" sudahla. *senyum*

FAQs

Q: “Kenapa yang ‘LIKE’ gambar kau semua lelaki?”

A: Saya bersekolah di sekolah berasrama yang semua pelajarnya lelaki selama 5 tahun, dan bila dah habis sekolah menengah masih tak biasa berkawan dengan perempuan so kawan perempuan tak ramai. Hakikatnya saya lagi ramai kawan lelaki daripada perempuan so logik la kot kalau ramai lelaki yang ‘LIKE’ daripada perempuan.

Q: “Why your nails are so pink?”

A: Fakta bukan auta, tangan saya memang cepat berpeluh “hyperhydrosis”. Blood supply yang terlebih efficient ke tapak tangan, sebab tu tapak tangan sentiasa merah dan kuku nampak pink macam baru lepas pergi manicure.

Q: “Please nak dengar kau ‘curse’ sekali ini je~”

A: Jujurnya saya rasakan saya mewarisi perangai ‘pendekar’ daripada sebelah ayah. Saya tak berapa suka tengok orang marah-marah tak tentu pasal dan sebab tu saya tak suka marah-marah atau menyumpah. Sekali-sekala ada juga terlepas cakap, tetapi selagi mana boleh kawal, saya akan cuba kawal.

Q: “Kau anak sulung ke?”

A: Saya bukan anak sulung, tapi saya anak lelaki sulung. Ada seorang kakak, seorang adik perempuan dan seorang adik lelaki.

Q: “Kenapa orang panggil kau Cheng?”

A: Erm sebab masa buat IB diploma program, ada satu author buku chemistry ni nama dia Raymond Cheng. Saya banyak ambil reference daripada buku tu masa awal-awal belajar, lepas tu terus melekat nama Cheng.

Q: *Banyak kali orang Cina cakap bahasa Cina dengan saya*

A: Saya tak pasti jika moyang punya moyang punya moyang ada darah Cina, tetapi daripada apa yang dimaklumkan daripada pakcik sebelah ayah, keluarga sebelah ayah ada darah Bugis. Sebelah emak tak berapa pasti.

International Annual Medical Quiz!!! #Neurobytes2013

Currently I am one of the Quiz Club Core Committee (QC3) for the upcoming International Annual Medical Quiz "Neurobytes" 2013. “Neurobytes” 2013 will be held on 28th & 29th May 2013!!! Registrations will begin From Feb 1st!!! Teams of 3 members!!! For more info please visit www.facebook.com/Neurobytes.

Brief Timeline of "NEUROBYTES":

2010: Neurobytes (ver 1.7) was initiated as a tool of peer learning in Melaka Manipal Medical College. It was targeted to improve the interaction between 3rd years and the Final years. It witnessed awesome success in achieving its goal.

2011: Neurobytes (ver 2.7) was taken up to the National level where 5 medical schools from all over Malaysia came to participate. Participation was restricted in number due to clashing of exam dates. Nevertheless, the contest was exciting and true spirit of competition was noted.

2012: Neurobytes (ver 3.5) had upgrades. More participation was seen as the dates were checked and rechecked to eradicate clashing of exams. The spirit of competition and professional brotherhood soar this time.

2013: Neurobytes (ver 4.5) is taking it to the next level... International level. Hope to see colleges beyond the boundaries of this country.

MMMC Annual Night 2013

Alhamdulillah, all praise to Allah. Finally I have the chance to sit behind the table comfortably with a cup of coffee, writing about my life for this humble blog of mine. This week I was so busy, only slept for 2-3 hours since last Sunday, making promo video, practicing for the band performance every night for 4 days, all are for the preparation of MMMC Annual Night which was held on 10th January 2013.

But compare to others in the Student Council, I think they are even busier and more hard-working than I am. I don’t care what others had to say about the event, but to all who had involved in the committee, the volunteers, and everyone who had helped us to make the event a big success, picture perfect!!! Splendid deco!!! Great food!!! JOB WELL DONE GUYS!!!

This is the second event that I had joined in this semester (although not actively involved, sorry) because most of the time I as one of the IT directors will work alone in my room doing the design things and stuff. Rarely attend the weekly meeting (sorry again). There are lots of things that I still can learn from this team and I will work even harder next time, InsyaAllah. There’s always room for improvement. Thank you so much for the chance and opportunity that had been given to me, and all the colorful memories.
