A letter to my Brain

"Dear Brain,

I know its been hectic for the last couple of weeks and I still need you to work very well for the next few days. This is because my dissertation is due on this Thursday.

You know that I love you very much Brain, without you I won't be at this stage! In addition to that brain, I know you are the central for everything~~ please tell 'heart' to stop worrying, stay calm and be strong throughout all this!!

I know both of you can do this well!! Please co-operate well to get the best outcome!! [Brain and Conscience]

Love,
Jor

Winter-Wonderland 2009 @ Bath

For this year, I do not need to go up to the Uni to enjoy the white-snow!! Because usually (for the past 2 years).. I need to go up to the Uni to play the snow~~ cause the snow usually do not settle on the ground in the city area~~

And this was officially the thickest snow ever in Bath and the Best WInter ever!!!! Why?= I played 'Snow-Sledge' @ Royal Crescent Park with my lovely housemates!!! Well in addition to that Uni was closed for 2 daysss due to this adverse-Snowing weather! Why the Uni was closed? ALL mode of transportation up the hill were suspended due to Slippery/Icy road condition!!!

Yeayy

But to think of it.. there was nothing to be happy about the Uni closure.....~ cause everyday is like holiday to me!! I only have a 2hr lecture every Fridaay, and occasional lab on Thursday~ [Holiday tia karang!] Which means i need to be Productive Everyday..~~~ cause all the units that I am taking this semester will be based on Courseworks/Presentations and Programming with NO EXAM at all!

I should start a Count-down for my final year project due date! As of Today I have 6 weeks left ! And i haven't started on the qualitative video analysis~~:(

And as a result from the very cold weather~ my feet+toes problem is back!! I hate it~ Its swelling, Its red, Its Itchy and it hurts~ n i don't know wat to do with it~~~

"The Pose session with Aimee @ our backyard"

"Standing on the frozen lake"

"With 'Minah'~ Our Very own snow-women wearing Tudong"

" Aimee, Wani and Emma"

"Pretty Ice-Sculpture"

And now~ the weather is back to normal wet~cold~windy condition!!!

Until then,

xx

Happy 21st Birthday to Sarah

" Happy 21st birthday to my little Sister.. Sarah Jormasie~ Wish you all the best and luck in life~ Sorry this is my 3rd year not celebrating your birthday next to you~ but soon I'll be back in Brunei and then we'll celebrate it with style!" xxx Aidah

2009

Well its already the end of January & a lot of things have been/are going on with me.....
hmm this will be a long post I think...

Times just move on pretty quick, and honestly ...I am not well prepared to face my final semester!! I just dont know why....maybe its just me with my laid-back attitude...... and now I miss Brunei~ I am not the 'home-sick' kind of person but lately all i really want is to be back in Brunei!! I miss my family, all of my little rascals back home... all the gurlssssss.... and the hot-warm weather~ (its been frickin' cold lately~~and i think my toes will start hurting again soon~~ :( !

What have I been doing for the past month? I'll start with WInter Hols!

Berlin-Rome-Venice


"In my opinion, Berlin is not that bad... pretty city, lots of architectural buildings, lots of interesting histories (which I don't know most of them...moral of the trip 'Learn the history' then you know which side is east and which is west)... would not mind going there again! "


"Rome- Looks quite familiar to Bath... apart from the warmer environment!! Don't really like the public transportation~~ apart from that~Rome is an Ok2x for me!!"


"Venice - Nice View~ Pretty area but nothing much there I guess~ Did not get on any water-transportation because I am prone to 'motion-sickness'.. and map orienteering in Venice was quite frustrating for me (I can read maps well but Veniceeee.. my-oh-my.. the street-junctions..the mini-bridges...its not easy)!!


After travelling ...pretty much nothing apart from staying home and occasional outing to the city, bought few stuff~and studying for the 3-days-back-t0-back exam! Prior to exam....Had my final year project presentation on "The Effect of Foot Types on Achilles Tendon Strain during Running"~ I thought it went pretty OK ....pretty nerve-wrecking!! Then had my Contemporary Research Issue exam on Wed 14/1 then Exercise Physiology on Thursday afternoon and Sport Biomech next morning (Pretty hard core biomech qstn~~)!!! Got my CWs back n Im a happyy Beeee again~~got good marks for all my 1st semester CWs...AND hopefully my exams mark will be as good as that!!!!

Last week I had another 3-days-back-to-back session.. but this time its for my project data collection!!!Had it on Tuesday-Wednesday afternoon and Thursday all day!! The traveling back-and-forth from Physio lab and Bio-mechanics Suite with all the equipments was such a turn-off for me~~
And now..Im pretty much done with the data collection but the time-consuming part of this project is not done yet.....I need to digitize it (arghhhh.. so not liking it!)!

"The equipments - CODA motion system, the Ultrasound and the treadmill platform!!"

"My Ultimate Goal!!"

Hopefully I'll get through the next few coming months as comfortable and easy while working my brain as hard as i can without involving any breakdowns and crying in between~Amin!!!!

End of 2nd Year

hi there,

Sorry for the lack of update..my lappy somehow have this auto switching off problem, so every time i tried to update a post it'll shutdown somehow! Hmmmmm guess need to fix it again once im back in Brunei~~

Talking about Brunei, I'll be home in less than 7 days~~ Yeay!!

ok im jz going to update all the things that i've done pretty much in the last 2 weeks or so.. (Basicly my Post Exam activities~)

1) MelayuBath BBQ
### I'll add the pictures at some point###

2) Netball n Jumping session

~Ballerina Class with the rest of the gurls~~

3) BruBath BBQ @Thornbank

~Its all fun walaupun hujan....+ I really love the Chocolate Fountain~~ n to those yg be-galar "ahli club malam" syabasss dengan persembahan2x anda yg sungguh menghibur kan hati~~

3) Bicester Outing~

It took about 2 hrs with few train changes to get there from Bath. Bicester was not that bad for factory outlet spot~~but its more like a high-street outlet.. ada Dior, DKNY, Jimmy Choo etc~ basicly all the big labels... But its all good~~

4) SES Dinner~

Had dinner with Ika, Yvonne and Kirstie at Wagamamas (Spelling?)! They are my coursemates whom i hang out most with~~Some sort of farewell dinner for Kirstie, cause We wont be seeing her around during our final year (Next coming semester).....because she's doing her placement somewhere near to Hastings (if im not mistaken~~).

And for Now~~ Im not really doing anything apart from watching Gazillion episodes of One Piece, the 4th Season of 'So You Think u can Dance', hmmm Grey's, Lost, hmmm yeahhh thats all i think~~

Latest Update~ I Finally owned 'Prince 03' squash racket... but its not the O3 Tour Version as i wanted in the first place~~ Last minute change to O3 Black because its much more lighter than O3 Tour~~ since im used to a lighter racket!! To date i have used 5 rackets which, 2 rackets are with me (Prince & Wilson), broke 1 racket (Head), 1 racket not in use (Dunlop) and gave 1 racket to Squash Centre.
I miss playing squash....Hope i'll get better with my game~~

Alright then~~

adios,
xoxo
Jor
