*Gasped!* Only one entry in June?! Boy I sure have been very productive, haven't I? 
Anyway, a lot has happened these past few weeks. My final examination for the spring semester ended June 10th and the result is due in about a week time. I'm keeping my hopes up despite all the crap I wrote on the paper especially AMA 101: Mathematics for Chemists, which till this very day, I still cannot imagine even the slightest idea of how it is all connected to chemistry. 
I don't really hate that subject, I just thought its a bit much for my course. Whatever it is, its all in the past now and I'm really hoping that I don't fail that paper, 'cause if I do, I'd have to take a re-sit exam in KL with a hefty fee of £222! I don't wanna pay that! The other paper was okay. Not that great but okay. Just so and so. The first fundamental paper, CHM 1002 A, consist of two parts of organic chemistry, both 1 and 2, and the first part of physical chemistry, Thermodynamics. I'm a bit relieved because I'm pretty confident with my organic chemistry answers. Thank god for my coloured notes! 
I'm not so sure about the physical though, 'cause I only read the notes during the last few hours before the exam. I pulled an all nighter for that paper, in fact I did that for every paper that I have this semester. I don't know, I feel like I can understand more when I'm studying at night. But hey, don't we all? Maybe its the serenity of night or maybe its simply because I had too much sleep during the day! 
Second fundamental paper wasn't all that great. I spend too much time on Dr. Winter's inorganic question and ended up not having enough time for Hippler's physical chemistry part. His part was the easiest of the 6 lecturers. I should have done his question first. The question was about rate of reaction and a question that requires us to draw a graph and interpret the data from the graph. I think it was the pseudo-first order reaction?
It was actually easy but given how much I suck at data handling and graph drawing, I didn't quite get the correct answer. We were supposed to calculate the activation energy from the graph and usually it is around 103 ~ish J but I got somewhere around 106 J! I only had a couple of minutes left so I couldn't alter the value.
"Please put your pen down"
"106??? 106? 1 MJ of energy?!!!! Are you freakin kiddin me!!!"
I think that may be caused by the un-steepness *is such word even exist?!* of my graph. I use a large scale so ended up with a nearly horizontal line graph. Whatever!
I do think its a bit too late to ramble about my exam but ahh, what the heck. I just need a place to vent. Its that simple
Anyway, the rest of the paper was like I said, just okay. If you must know, this is how react after exam. I don't really feel the stress of post exam like some people. I just deal with it. I mean, what's the use of moping around things that has already happened kan? No matter how much you sulk or cry, you can't change the fact that its in the past now. A bit harsh I know, but that's the truth.
Its already 8.23 pm now but it is still not dark yet. Maghrib these days is around 9.30 pm. The sun rises around 4.45 am so that makes Subuh here at about 2.30 am! I always know that the day is longer during the summer but when I'm here, it still amazes me somehow. Like, its real *Of course its real. Why wouldn't it be real you idiot?!* Kinda funny actually. Guess I'm still used to 12 hour day and night huh? Ooh, remember that I told you earlier that the result is out some time around next week? Well, yes but they, as in the department's staff, actually has already obtained our final result and have already sent it out to our personal tutor! I got the news from K.A and after much persuasion from the girls, I finally caved in and ask my personal tutor for my result. Sadly, he can't reveal anything to me yet. He said I have to wait for the result day. But, here's the best part, he said that from what he saw on my file, I shouldn't really be worried! That I should be having a happy holiday time right now!
Tell me, was that a good sign? I thought it was, until I wrote it here. Now I feel like he's telling me to be ready and a have a good time first, 'cause my holiday's about to take a wild spin??!! Nooooo!!!! 
I hope that's not true. I really hope not!Ooh, I got to go now. I shouldn't be writing this considering I still haven't packed my things yet. I'm moving out in a couple of days so expect a sappy moving out entry from me later. And tag entries from Aneesah and Azwan. Will also update about my flight this coming Sunday. Expect a lot of entries from me these coming few days, provided that I have the strength to actually write it here. Maybe I'll end up posting a podcast instead? Who knows?
Cheers guys!

daa~ tup tup nak cite flight on sunday, consider orang tak balik ok?..haha, just kidding.
1st half of the entri, cheq nganga ja la ang cerita itu dan inun...
Haha. Ditto on Azwan's second line. *nganga je with a blank face* I think my brain has completely gotten rid of all those (now) unnecessary crap I've been cramming for exams ... I bet all my Physics Units dah totally blurrrrr.
(But that's fine. Heheh.)
Yeaaa I was surprised to know, from my friend kat US, that Maghrib is around 9 and Isyak like 10:30pm. =\ Peliklah, then you gotta adjust your sleeptime and all that. And it's not idiotic at all, I guess when you've lived somewhere like Malaysia, these changes just sound ... abnormal. ^^;
Aw takyahla think so much about your results, I think the tutor meant what he meant. :) Ahaha, podcast boleh gak, you've never posted one before!
yep, bersetuju on the thot that study at night is much much better. i am a 'night person' so i know. heh. and i never study siang pon kot, except for lectures and tutorials la kan.
its normal la to be amazed timing summer ni. believe me, akak dah second year pon still rasa amaze ;)
anyways, gud luck on ur results. gud luck on moving out, im sure it will be so tiring. heh. and finally, happy coming back to malaysia!
