Uni-disaster week 2 report

Walao weh...!!! Hardly can rest the whole week. For now, my palm has 2 puncture wounds, both knee-caps filled with scratches, elbow slightly scratched, whole body muscle aching, semi-controllable voice and most of all, the developed a phobia to garlic in liquids. If you noticed in the first Uni-disaster post, I was attending the orientation only, but due to furious, maybe a little careless actions, somehow it doesn't seemed as fun as it originally was.

Firstly, I would like to congratulate the orientation organizers for making a terrific video. I know how hard it was to make it since I've made a few before. Whelan was right, they deserve an IMU Oscar for that. The great thing about the video is that the makers know how to manipulate our thoughts, I guess that is what most good film makers do. 'Is it too late?' is quite a great idea after fixing the jigsaw puzzles. Congrats again...

But of course, the only thing bad is the hassle of cleaning all the attires used during various events, namely Treasure Hunt and Detective Game, which has leaves behind crappy foul stench lying all over my hair, my dad's car and most of all, my clothes... Is it really necessary to use garlic water, water colour and caligraphy ink to express grafitti on your poor juniors? Please note that although my skin is not sensitive to these liquids, the stench is really unbearable. The addition of wheat flour to this mixture makes my healthy scalp grow the terror I've been fighting for years, dandruff. For the first time, Clear anti-dandruff shampoo lost the fight to a new shampoo brand called Pinky-Blacky-Garlic-Flour Dandruff growing shampoo.

Anyway, Pee-A-Poop didn't win any prizes, didn't lose any either. Just vaguely screaming 'Pee-A-Poop' isn't a replacement for cooperation and organization. So what if there were no orientation, there will be no Pee-A-Poop, no Zi Yi, no Wai Ling, no Hong, no Lisa, no Cindy, no Jie Yun, no Ee Ching, no Safwan, no Nabilah, no Zi Fen, no Ee Lin, no Poh Ping, no Pei Jia, no Yvonne, nobody to know at all. Orientation was not meant to be a game, not a V.S. scenario, just a tight rope which surrounds a group of strangers, pull them together and unite them as one stronger unit. Bravo Orientation Committees, you have achieved that...

For one last time, as a part of group 4, Pee-A-Poop, I would like to restate the cheer loudly and proudly.
Pee-A-Poop
Pee-A-Poop
Pee Pee Shhh Shhh
Pee Pee Shhh Shhh
Ooops... Out a Poop
Who's the Poop
You're the Poop
Loser Loser
Neh neh neh Poo Poo...

Uni-disaster in the process

Just as the years starts, the world starts coming down on me as I crawl into the International Medical University (IMU). Things were very ritualistic at first with a white coat ceremony and briefings as usual like most educational institution. But just as I was feeling a like a little adult, I was thrusted back into a body of a kid, actually more like a hyperactive kid as I look at the seniors standing tall around my minute body (damn I'm short!!!).

As the situation was obviously bad enough, we were given something the seniors claim we would 'remember for life', this scenario is called "ORIENTATION". This simple word hardly describes the difficulties involved. We juniors were actually divided into groups of 11 and were obligated to participate in the so-called 'games'. We had hardly anytime to prepare ourselves for many of the games which required tedious organization and guidance.

We had to make a banner, a mascot, do tasks for seniors and also make costumes for a dress-up game before the event, that is like 5 days for everything.picture at the bottom are my group members, Ling, Zi Fen, Cindy, Zi Yi, Lisa, (crap! what's her name), (Hong and Jie Yun not in pic) working hard to get a banner upyou see all of them so busy while I was standing around doing nothing (feeling so irresponsible)More pictures will be coming soon, good luck PEE-A-POOP

Please forgive me for taking your photo without your permission and if I spelled your names wrongly!!!

On Friday, we started orientation with a Treasure Hunt thingy... Yup, the video made by the seniors were quite good considering they were not from LimKokWing, but the story was kinda... whatever. There were many stations with interesting games. As anticipated, we were also showered in garlic water, caligraphy ink and lots of flour, much like the ones from other camps. I was also given the 'privilege' to pole dance in a park and scream till my voice also a bit 沙哑.

For now, I still need to prepare for the monday's dressing game, for me, it is cross-dressing day because have to dress up like Usagi Tsukino, commonly known as Sailormoon.

This is really hillarious for people of all religion, especially Christians. Please dont be too paranoid watching this just after Christmas...

Mystery Of The Unknown: Eye On Malacca

There is actually no mystery, no suspense but just a few pictures of the Eye On Malaysia taken from Malacca city with a night setting. There seems to be very few pictures of the Eye in Malacca since it was only shifted in November and I would like to show some of the snapshots I took during my trip.

<This is the Eye on Malaysia in Malacca, a spectacular view captured with only a 2.0 megapixel camera phone.

This is another > closer view of the Eye but was taken a little later, so the background is darker and creates a luminating Eye feel with a slight light distortion from the moonlight on the top left-hand corner.

                                                                                               

Of course Malacca is not just about the Eye, there are also many delicacies not found in any other parts of Malaysia (even if there are, nothing is as good as the original).

Can you see the number of people waiting to enter the shop? You must be thinking "what are they waiting for?". If you look closely at the picture, there are gas tanks under every table. There are only two unrelated S-words to describe this meal, Soup & Stick.

I know Malaccans will be shouting out the answer by now, for non-malaccans, (sound of drums) I present to you, Satay Celup.

This dish is certainly very interesting and entertaining because it has a fusion of food cultures, the Malay Satay and Malaysian Chinese Lok-lok. The boiling hot water in lok-lok is replaced by delicious satay nut sauce which adds on to the taste of anything dunked into the pot. I'm not sure whether every shop has the same ingredients but Restoran Capitol in Malacca uses not only nuts but chicken serunding(meat floss) for their soup.

Like every lok-lok and satay shop, food are arranged with sticks so that they are convenient for serving.

This post is not about food or the Eye of Malaysia, it is about my visit to Malacca, but as a food lover, I tend get too excited...
