Of New Semesters, New Beginnings and a New Me

      So I thought it was high time I started blogging after wanting to do it ever since I got into university. Let me just say that A LOT has happened to me the past semester. I admit I did go through one hell of a roller coaster but I believe I am starting to taste the fruits of my labor.
      Where are my manners, let me just give you a bit of information about myself (a.k.a let me indulge in my narcissistic ways just for a bit). My real name is ***** and I'm a student at the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. I hail from Sarawak which is better known as the "Bumi Kenyalang". I entered UM in 2017 and I'm currently doing my foundation in science here and hopefully I'll be pursuing my degree in Medicine (God knows where) in 2018.
     

      I can tell you s*** ton about the things I went through last semester but I'll probably end up making a new post about that because I kid you not, I have A LOT TO TALK ABOUT. Anyways, the main point of me making this blog is to well, start up my blog. I want to just have an outlet to express my thoughts and also a platform for me to improve my English proficiency because watching movies in lectures is not helping *ahem* 'not insinuating anything' *ahem*. 

      This semester I'm going to try to be a more wholesome person. Now I've uninstalled Dota 2 and Instagram (the 2 things which are poisoning my social and intellectual life), I can now focus on learning more things and basically improving my general knowledge. I feel like I am extremely lacking in this department so I have to start reading again and NO, a busy schedule is not an excuse not to read Muzza. Besides intellect, I also want to improve my physical fitness. I wouldn't be surprised if the US came to invade my college because there is so much oil in all the food here! It's ridiculous. I do walk a lot at campus but almost everything here is bathed in oil and also coated in Ghost Peppers, I hate the spice level here. I'll try jogging at least thrice a week and MAYBE just maybe I'll start doing simple strength exercises. Lastly, I have to start to learn to save money. One of the things I loathe about myself is that I am a huge SPLURGE. I have no idea why but I just feel like spending money whenever I get a chance too. Hopefully, with the help of my new budget book I made via excel, I'll save enough money to earn enough to maybe go on a holiday (Melbourne I'm coming back!). 

    Anyways, this time I'm going to change my mindset. It's so typical for people to make resolutions and then slowly forget about them. Well, I never was one to follow the status-quo so I'm going to make NEW RESOLUTIONS as I get through this semester. Hopefully this will be my "changing habit" as which helps me "grow up". 

       By the way, I hope that you readers wouldn't mind giving me constructive criticism to help my blog, be it in terms of content, language or format, anything that can help my blog and consequently me, become better. That's it for today, chao amigo and may peace be upon you.

Medical School at UM

Good whatever-the-time-of-day-it-is-you're-reading-this-post-at, if you've clicked on this post, you're either entering the University of Malaya's medical programme (UMMP-University of Malaya Medical Programme) this September or you're just a curious soul who is wondering what life in medical school at UM is like. Whatever you're reason, I'd like to thank you for giving my blog a read and I hope that I can help you accomplish whatever it is you've come here to do. Briefly, my name is M***** and as of me writing this post, I'm currently a first year medical student at the University of Malaya. I vividly remember the months before entering my degree life when I would scour the internet for blog posts on what life in UM as a medical student would be like to no avail. Most of the posts out there are about Minggu Haluan Siswa, MHS ( which I also made a post on, so feel free to check that out) . Thus, I'd like to share a little bit about how life at

PASUM: An Adventure to Shape Your Future

Introduction Today's post is going to be about PASUM, my experience through it and how the program is structured (at least how it was during my time). A little bit about me before we begin. My name is Muzza and I was a PASUM (Pusat Asasi Sains Universiti Malaya) student of the year 2017/2018. Initially I had never intended to enrol in PASUM (I actually changed my mind the week before PASUM began) because I had never heard of the program nor really been interested in it. However after considering the prestige of the University of Malaya, I opted to give it a shot for a year. I enrolled in PASUM (taking Life Sciences) in 2017 under JPA's Program Penajaan 9A+ scholarship. A word of warning, if you really want to get into PASUM, study hard. Apparently it's quite competitive and a very popular program. They also don't take too many students in comparison to other public university foundations. And so the journey begins.  Academics So PASUM or sometimes referred

SPM Tips Which are a Year Overdue

SPM Tips by Subject Introduction Assalammualaikum guys, today I want to share some of my tips for those of you preparing for SPM. I’m not trying to brag or anything by posting this but instead I hope that you guys can learn something from this and get results better than mine. F.Y.I. I’m a full-science student so I took 9 subjects for SPM only. I did take ‘prinsip perakaunan’ in form 4 but I chose to drop it in form 5 because I loathed accounting. Don’t worry though, I’ll try to get some tips from my friends who scored A+ for accounts and post it sometime later. Someone edit a '+' after that A please. Bahasa Melayu (Malay Language) For me personally my language subjects were especially hard because I was more gifted in memorising and I loved science. Because of this, I had to enrol in BM tuition which greatly helped me a lot. I highly recommend going to tuition for BM because there are some things you can’t self-learn for BM (like the format and what not).
