back online!!
the worst thing that could happen to an internet addict is 3 weeks of deprivation of internet connection….
yes. i’m officially declaring myself an internet addict now. since last year, i’ve been online almost 24/7…..not that i’ve anything important to do, juz that i feel "connected" to the outside world when i’m online.
for the past 3 weeks i’ve been suffering from withdrawal syndrome due to abrupt withdrawal from the internet. it was that previous stupid server that ended service suddenly without any notification. stupid stupid stupid. the service porvider was supplying wireless internet connection and telephone service. on the day i came back from moscow, before i could recover from the trauma i suffered from flight from doha, i found out that the phone was gone…like "tercabut" kinda gone.
the symptoms of the withdrawal syndrome is craving for internet….psychologically….i even had to borrow my friend’s connection to go online, just to check my mail. how pathetic is that!
and i had to spend another 700 roubles ( about rm 100) to fix a new connection. it’s a fixed line. and they took a grand total of 3 weeks….3 blardy weeks to fix it….1 week to fix the cabel. another week to get the wiring done, another to set up, and i had to wait 2 days for the account to be activated.
i was more depressed when i found out that apparently "digi" in malaysia bo ngam with my phone service center in russia. i couldn’t recieve any msg from digi in malaysia. but they could recieve my msg though….how does this affect me u ask?? my dearest mom is using digi….(told her to use maxis edi..HHMMPH!)
was thinking of calling sue jan and yuen hoong before they fly….but that stupid phone "tercabut" pula….so can only send msg to them lo….dunno whether they recieved or not….
on the other hand, i’m in 3rd year now!!
who would believe it…hahaha….
this semester would be rather different. we are having cycles now, as in taking a single subject for a period of time, then change to other subject… As we have total of 12 groups , each group will take turns for each subject.
as usual, my group being the most "lucky" group in the whole wide world, got the toughest subject for the whole 3rd year—–pharmacology.
and our next cycle is "pathologic anatomy" ( another difference between russia and other countries is that they devide the pathology dicipline into pat. anatomy and pat. physiology….)
if you noticed, i’ve used alot of the word "stupid" on my way here up to this point. there’s a good reason for this. thanks to my super friendly, kind and helpful pharmacology teacher.
her class is interesting…and funny, when she uses the word "stupid"…she pronounced it like "stewwpid"….she uses it often to describe the mistakes of doctors and patients when prescribing and taking drugs.
example; " a pregnant woman was admitted to the hospital for bla bla bla…..and the stupid doctor precribe her XXX drugs to relieve her symptoms. describe me the mistake of the stupid doctor."
another classic example which is funny to me is when she describe a name of a drug related to romeo and juliet
the drug was named after the city that romeo and juliet lived in.the story goes something like this.
"romeo love juliet, but their family hate each other. juliet dicided to take a drug, a kind of barbituratem which will temporarily cause coma and show symptoms of death. but STUPID romep did not know this. he thought juliet was really dead. so stupid romeo took a dagger and stabbed himself. when juliet finally recover fromt the effect of the drug, she was very sad to find that romeo was dead. so stupid juliet kill herself too…"
the morale of the story is
1) find a girlfriend who is not the enemy of your family
2) pharmacology is very important.
pharmacology is quite a heavy subject. so far i’ve taken 2 test. 1 more to go before i finish this cycle and move on to the next toughest cycle.
so far i’ve adapted well to the life here. although occasionally i’ll feel lonely when the light is off….that’s when i think bout people in malaysia…..and being deprived from internet connection and from all my digi-user friend doesn’t help at all…..
i had so much to say……so much to type few weeks back….but now when i’ve finally got my own connection in my room…..i dunno what to do….
so blank now…..
