Done with medical checkup



After two days of medical checkup, I can finally take a long rest at home. As being part of the procedures, I had to go around several clinics and hospitals to complete all the compulsory medical tests.

The first government medical checkup has been done before I was awarded the scholarship. It is completely the same. I really don't know why before my dad toldme that all the tests will expire six months later, especially X-ray. Yesterday morning was the hectic one. Besides taking medical checkup, I had to send pos laju to Putrajaya for the application of good conduct cert. In the early morning, I had to wake up with my half-opened eyes and prepare all the necessary documents. To avoid traffic in and out of the hospital, reaching there earlier is the only way. Lucikly my dad is working in the hospital. He could make sure that I complete all the tests in split seconds. During the tests, blood sample was takenand injection wasn't that painful at all...but still, I can feel the numbness of my arm. The next stop is the X-ray room where X-ray of my upper body was taken.



Finished wif medical checkup, I have to go for lunch and take additional photos for the application purpose. Upon sending in the pos laju, I need to double check the doc. Plus the weather. It was hot and cold at the same time which really made me feel sick but not the serious one. The next day was much simpler and faster. I only had to complete the medical tests in one private clinic. All in all, it was a great experience and wish that I can fly to NZ successfully soon...

End of Academic years in M'sia


About a year and a half ago, I was shocked with the receive of JPA scholarship to a whole new place in south hemisphere. To gear up, foundation has been built not just preparing myself mentally, but also physical, emotional and friendship.


It was an awesome experience I ever had in my past 19 years as pre-uni year changed me into a new different person. I have started to take one step ahead to be bold enough to speak and learn. I Going through this short journey wasn't that easy as it seemed. I was surrounded by young brilliant students who are fully equipped with intelligent minds. To face them, it was my hardest thing to do. My mind started going out of the place as I kept comparing my own results with others, which made me feel miserable and low in self-esteem. In the end, I set aside all these useless thoughts and began to believe in myself entirely.


Previously, I was often labelled as the quiet and passive guy in college. I seldom mingle around and meet with new pals. Also, people kept telling me that I was over-stressed in each and everything even though I don't think it was a stress at all. Worse, I was called as one of the study nerds. Gosh! Soon, I realised that it didn't work since tertiary studies should be more in getting along with each other, be active and have fun. I did participate in clubs and societies to further enhance my abilities and skills.

One more important thing I know is that I was not alone in any complications. I had my roomates to offer me help and support to me. I had my classmates to guide me in my studies. I had my lecturers who are the fireflies which fly around and share the brightest moments. These have indeed make my life more interesting and wonderful.


Now, I’m alone at home having ample rest before departing to overseas. Online and facebooking keep me busy all the time >< style="font-style: italic;">

P.S.
I will never forget every single piece of "puzzle" which has fully connected and turned into who I am right now.
