<1>

This was taken in the first year if I'm not mistaken.. Haha.. 3 guesses as to *where* this is taken, though the first 2 won't count.. =p

To quote an anonymous person, "Biasa-lah tu.. Perempuan..... Kalau bergambar, kat mana2 pOn boleh..." =)

<2>

This one is taken @PD.. We were the *ahem* nicest facillitators ever!! LoL.. It's actually during my college's computer club interaction day. This is the high committee members being silly as usual.. Miss them all so much!!



<3>
This time the gang was coming to USM as the supporters for UKM chem-e-car team.. This was taken while we were waiting for our room keys from the hotel's administration.. Tired face, is it? Hehe.. We were 'conserving' energy for the competition the very next day.. ;-)



<4>
Me and the giant flower.. =) At Sunway Pyramid with cha.. ;-)


<5>
Really liked this picture.. =) Guess where this is??


<6>
Me with Dilla.. This is taken during our ex-school's reunion day.. =) A bit boring *ahem* fortunately with my bestfwen beside me, it's bearable.. Hehe..



<7>
And what's better to fill the time than going picture-crazee!!! =) Actually behind us is a door where the rays of sunlight is coming in. That's what causes that bright light.. ;-)



<8>
Wan, me and dila (l-r).. =) Also during the chem-e-car event..



<9>
Upside down!! =)



<10>

Me and cha!! Miss u a LOT dear.. =)

Oh well, there's a lot more pictures that I wanted to include, but maybe next time ait! Hehe.. And since this was a tag, the custom is that I should tag others too, right? But, I don't want to pressure anyone into doing this, so to anyone who's interested, please do it ok?!

Hehehe..
=)

8 Random Facts About Me

Salam..

Referring to yesterday's post, this is part II.. Actually, yesterday I was in such a rush, so I just Ctrl + C the questions and added my part, and there's actually two parts of it. One is the one I already did, and the other is "8 Random Facts about Me".. Hehe.. Sounds familiar?? I think kamal would know, because he tagged me *ages* ago, and I never did it, yet after 2 more person tagged me, well, there's no lazing away then..

=p

So, even though 2 person insists that the last post wasn't really a post (and I kinda agree.. LoL), again I'm doing it.. Haha.. Just bear with me for a while longer k.. I already have plans about my new update, and it's got something to do with shades of happiness of my own, but since this tag is already been stalled for a looooong time, here's Tagged : Part II

8 Random Facts About Me

The Rules :

1. Link to your tagger and post these rules.
2. List 8 random facts about yourself.
3. Tag 8 people at the end of this post and list their names.
4. Let them know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blogs.
   

8 Facts About Me:

• I love cats!! Hehe.. And usually when I'm at home, I talk to them.. Funny? Well, that's just the way I am.. A picture of two of my cats lounging in front of a neighbour's house :

• I sing while washing dishes.. =) Haha.. Well, singing is therapeutic to some, and for me, a self-appointed music lover, trying to sing is just as good as listening to it.. Though sometimes I didn't realise that I'm humming under my breath until someone pokes me and says, "Hey, you like that song??" Ooops, malu la pulak.. LoL..

• If I'm wearing shoes while driving, usually I will take them off.. Haha.. Dunno if others do that, but I haven't seen it yet. Weird? It depends.. I did that because I don't want the shoes to be folded at the middle, and then there will be a line at what was supposed to be smooth.. =)

• I love the color purple! And one thing remains the same until this day, my purple mechanical pencil that I have since Form 3.. =) And a bronze bracelet with purple beads that I bought with Dilla, still looks fine.

• I like watching animes! From dark themed animes like Blood+ and Hell Girl to funny ones like Ouran and Negima. I love 'em all! ;-) Though I gotta admit, I haven't watch any since the start of this semester although Nad has lent me her copy of Fate/Stay Night and Dilla gave me a few of series that I haven't yet see.. Haha..

• I doodle, a lot!! My friends have already known this particular habit of mine, and you can see almost all my books/notes are scattered with em. I doodle when I'm bored, I doodle when I am studying and I doodle when I did my tutorials.. ;-)

• Like I said, I like music, but I do listen to oldies!! =) Hehe.. I remembered one time when a friend borrowed my mp3 and she finds 'Heaven Knows' inside it, and she said,"Eiii, lagu ni bukan dah lama ke??" and that kinda sums it up. Yep, I do listen to LiteFM, and not ashamed to admit it! =p

• I don't like wearing name tags! Usually, I go extra lengths to avoid wearing 'em, even when at Pusanika (coz a lot of my friends would wear it just in case our honourable security officers would stop us and demanded an explanation. But me? Hehe.. Just try to keep my eyes open and zig-zag-ing my way to arrive to my destination without hassle. But, I do like to wear it if I'm wearing my lab coat. Dunno why though.. Haha..

.. .. ..

Anyway, that's all for now.. And for hilman n kamal, don't worry, I'll post my new update asap.. =) But, thanks for coming anyway.. LoL..

Just to add one thing, this Wednesday I will be having another mid-term exam (Bioreactor II) and to add to that, there will be a lot of replacement classes and laboratory works, so will be a bit busy.. =)

Btw, thanks for reading!
=)

If you read the title of today's post, I can imagine your knowing grin (or grimace! Lol).. Anyway, a few days (or was it weeks) ago, this friend of mine, tagged me, and it wasn't that hard to do, so here it is :



~ Start Copy ~

Rules :
1. Copy from "Start Copy" until "End of Copy".
2. Before "End of Copy", share your best memories of 2007 include your name and your URL blog.
3. Share this tag to your friends.

For me, the year 2007 had a lot of happiness (and hope for 2008). Happiness because i see my son, grow and grow day by day. I have a great husband. I met lots of new friends from around the world via blogging ^_^ - Juliana RW

In 2007, I become happier than before because my hubby’s got promotion and sure his salary had been increased. This had made my life more comfortable but everything seemed to cost an arm and a leg nowadays. The happiest memory is I see Nelson’s tummy becoming bigger and bigger, he can now count number 1 to number 10, by my guidance. He loves eating and he enjoys every meal. He gives us a lot of happiness by the way he mimic our talking style and making such lovely faces. At first, I was so scared to look after him but now I hope he can be with me all the time. Even I feel tired everyday but I feel my life is meaningful. - Hazel

2007 is quite a productive year for me. I got a new baby (son), now 5 months old and a new car. Career wise, everything is moving smoothly as plan and I'm half way thru my Masters degree and hope will be completed in 2008 and will path a way for me to be a Phd. candidate by end of 2008. A new batch of training and consultancy project is in the pipeline and will start soon. Most importantly my new passion -"blogging" started this year and hopefully will keep growing and blooming. I hope this blogging activity will develop my social networking and friendship with other bloggers. - myfisol

tahun 2007 boleh dikatakan tahun yang agak "terkejut" bagi aku. aku terkejut dengan schedule stadi aku yang kelam kabut. aku terkejut dengan kenyataan lecturer aku depan-depan kelas. aku terkejut dengan maki hamun paling dahsyat pernah aku terima. aku terkejut dengan suara yang mengatakan aku "kutuk bagai nak rak" idola pujaan mereka. dan aku juga terkejut bila ramai yang backup aku. terima kasih banyak untuk itu. aku tak mahu "terkejut" lagi. biarlah tahun 2007 menjadi penutup segala kisah terkejut aku... - aria ayumi


2007 started well I think, with the first memory that happen on the 1st of Jan. there are lots of things happened in 2007 - the fight with roommate - the dean’s list result that I got for last semester (just a bit to get first class) – the extreme expedition to Ledang Mountain - the the short semester that I did to ‘repair’ my grade - the July month - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows - the new crush – Medley Gila - the first fight – the tasks and responsibilities – the biggest project handled, Expoconvo’07 – new friends made – enjoyment and the sadness – all mixed together as one solution, that I think has a lot of sentimental value to me. And also, not to forget, the expanded community of friends to the net through my blog Yang Terdalam…


If I remember back to the beginning of 2007, the first thing I would remember is that I watched the lacklustre performance for the launch of Tahun Melawat Malaysia in RTM1. Hehe.. Oh well, anyway, a lot of things happen, be it in studies, in life, relationships with friends, so on and so forth. In 2007, I began to understand better the world I live in. I began to understand myself and began accepting people as they are. I learn to be more open, and open up to people around me. Accepting the responsibilities bestowed on me, being a leader, being someone who people can trust, learn to communicate better and handling various problems that comes my way. I learn to anticipate people, and learn to forgive, though I don't think I would ever forget. My house got broken into, my results fluctuated before going up again, only to fall down in the end. Blogged more than the year before, watched a LOT of movies than before, and made new friends along the way. Received my license (yay, I'm not a probational driver anymore!!), started my own poems. Live through my 21st birthday and went to Kuantan for the field trip (such a informational trip, that was). Have a great Aidilfitri and Aidiladha, went for a vacation in the East Coast (even though the floods are raging at that time) and lastly, moved my blog here, in Hearts in Two!


~ End of Copy ~


Ooookaay, so I think you can guess what is coming, but, hehe, I think it might not be what you think. Instead of tagging my other friends, like I'm supposed to, I don't think I'll do that.

Why?

Because, kamal already tagged those I had in mind. Hehe.. So, if you're interested to make one, please, do join in.

=)

With that said, this concludes my first post this year. Stay tuned!



And thanks for reading..
=)
