FROM SENIORS TO JUNIORS- ASASI PINTAR

Hi there wonderful people! 

Okay, this is just going to be a short post, just to serve as a notification, or something that may benefit some of you guys (and girls) who are actually searching for information about.. UKM ASASIpintar Foundation Program. 

I know, it'll be so hard to find anything related to this course huh? 

So, I'm gonna leave a FB page link here. 

 https://www.facebook.com/pages/Program-ASASIpintar/550787455039977

Or you can just go search 'Program ASASIpintar' in FB. 

Oh yeah, and a few of my friends actually blogged about the program too. So, if you are excited, try to search for them okay.

Take note on this post though: 

"Hi and a very good day everyone! 

First of all, congratulations as you manage to obtain the chance to enter this foundation program under UKM. This page is a platform for seniors to share their experiences and to try answer inquiries from our juniors.

However, the team behind the page is now compiling common questions that juniors are curious to know about this program and will be answering them soon. So, we would like to ask for some time before we release any posts. Let's just say that this page is 'under construction'.

Stay tuned! Thanks!

Sincerely, 

Excited senior."

So, give the team a bit of time and yeap, hopefully your inquires will be answered :)

Feel free to approach me on FB as well or you can comment under this post or you can ask in the chat bar at the side there as well. However, I do not promise a swift on-the-spot reply but will reply as soon as i can okay. But bear in mind that, my batch's experience is not the same with the following batch's experience. So yeah.  

Got to go! Thanks for reading! Toodles :)

Signing off, 

Yen.

Looking Back

Hi there.

I can't believe it's mid-semester break now. The previous post about the start of second semester was like... two months ago. I think I better slap myself to accepting this reality.

I've just finished arranging and separating my Infection and Immunity notes to a few parts; immunology, bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, self-learning packages and problem based-learning cases. This module carries 5 credit hours, with 21 lectures. I think this module has the most lectures so far, phew. You know what, I think I'm writing this now is to just scare myself to fully use this week's time. I have end of module examination on the first day after the break. *creepy music*

People say, being in medical school is about pass or fail. Yea, it's true. To pass is not easy. Sometimes you'll come out satisfied with what you had answered, but at the end the results is a no-no. Results are unexpected. Then you'll find yourself feeling down, like really down and wonder are you really capable of this. I am not trying to scare any potential juniors off. Trust me. I've been there, done that. Have a heart of steel, have a mind of positive ions. Please, have people who supports and reminds you of God, hope and faith. Know that you are not alone, really.

Yikes. Enough being the miss-know-everything now Yen. The purpose of this post is to write on the first half of semester 2. I am incapable of writing everything down I've experienced though. Let's try to do this chronologically by referring to my phone camera.
