a lil' something.. [p a r t 3]

oops.. almost forgot to upload this last post about the FSI Education Fair..
as Student Ambassador, i went along with our Marketing Dept staff, the very cute SuYin..
and our designated driver--Nawim..
on this trip to northern penisular Malaysia..
1st stop... Penang!!!!
and guess where we stayed..
the formerly known as Shangri-La hotel --- Traders Hotel...

hmm.. this must have been one of the last photos of me and my curly hair.. how i miss it sometimes..

view from our hotel room.. it overlooks Prangin Mall

interior design of Traders hotel..

the very expensive yet luxurious breakfast..


i am not joking.. it's RM44/pax for a buffet breakfast there.. luckily, i'm not the one who is paying.. hahahahaha...

and my job starts..

guess who is our new cover of our N&D brochure.. =P

well.. the next stop was Bukit Mertajam..
and we stay at the Summit Hotel..

cute christmas decorations..







and the final stop was in Ipoh~~ stayed in Syuen Hotel..

breakfast there was a bit disappointing though..


the pretty ballroom of Syuen Hotel, Ipoh..

so.. what exactly was i doing there?
basically i was there to share my experience as a student in IMU..
learned quite a lot about the different courses in IMU..
Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Nursing, Biomedical Sciences, Medical Biotechnology, Nutrition & Dietetics, Chiropractic, and the soon available Traditional Chiniese Medicine..

talked to many prospective students..
many were still a long way from finishing pre-U.. mostly SPM leavers..
makes me realize, they kinda looked like me..
well, i was the first child of the family, and my parents and i had absolutely no idea at all..
diploma? matrikulasi? form6? a-levels? SAM? everything seems so overwelming then..
then there was the whole confusion of what i wanted to study..
but i was really lucky then.. i never regretted doing form6..
that was when i was sure for the first time, i wanted to do Nutrtition or Dietetics..
and i'm really greatful that i have the most understanding and supportive parents..
who was willing to let me study this course that they have never heard about, and not even sure what that is..
i can remember clearly, daddy asking me: "this dietetics that u wanted to study arr, what is it? u sure can get job later?"
i'm sure it wasn't easy for them to send their precious daughter away from home, to this university that is in Bukit Jalil..
but regardless of all the uncertainty and anxiety, they were still so supportive of my ambition and dream to become a dietitian..
therefore, i will never hesitate to say this, all that i have now, and all that i have achieved and everything that i'm made of..
daddy and mummy, it all came from you both..

ps. just came back from this really bizarre 2010 new year countdown with my family in mcD Manjung.. i hope that's how we can spend the new year eves to come XD
