Few things to do/achieve while I'm in UPM

         Hey guys, so everytime if you see I create a new post in my blog, it means that I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. So now I'm gonna talk about the few things that I have to achieve. In our country we have this 2020 Vision. So am I. This is my 2013 Vision. Hahahaha...

        So I have 3 years time living in UPM. It's not a long time nor a short time. 3 years is long enough for a baby to learn how to talk and walk, but it's not long enough to grow a rambutan tree to eat it's fruit.

        Anyway, there are few things that I want to achieve in these 3 years. I want all of these to be achieved before I graduated from UPM.

       1) Be able to present well
        Today, or I mean yesterday, was the first time in my life to make a presentation in UPM. I'm sorry to say but I was very nervous. I wanted to present well. I want to give an excellent speech. I want everyone to be interested in what I say. But, I was very nervous till my hands were shaking and my heart was beating so fast. I'm very mad that why couldn't I do it well? I've done presentations before in high schools and form6, I even teach in front of kids before. It all went well. But why am I doing so much worse than what I did last time? I know it's because of the environment. I have different group of people that I don't know them at all. But still I want to be a good presenter. I want to learn how to present well.

     2) Be a wise consumer
     This might sound a little bit funny, but seriously, since I come to KL, I couldn't help myself from spending. I've spent a lot! I've bought a lot of things. I'm like a shopaholic already! :( From now on, I must control myself. I want to be a wise consumer. I must buy the things that I really need only. And yes! I have to compare the prices to see from where I could get a cheaper rate. I don't want to spend a lot anymore. I want to save money! Say NO to spending on unnecessary items! Be a wise consumer! :P

      3) Improve my English
      So last Friday I went to a debate competition to support a friend of mine. And the contestants all were very great! Their English was very fluent and they could present well! They were not nervous, they could have eye contact with the judge, they were loud enough, they were so confident and they were GREAT! Wow! I wonder when could I be like them? But, I just want to improve my English. I want to be able to write good stuff, I want to speak good English and could communicate well in English! :)

     4) Be able to cook well
     Alright, I have to learn how to cook. I mean, cook more than instant noodles and fried eggs or mushroom soup please >.< Yes, everyone can cook. I mean, who can't cook? I can cook. But the food that I cook can be edible or not, that's a different story. Hahaha. I want to learn how to cook, and thank God, I have this friend who could cook really well. So, when I'm in UPM, I will learn how to cook from her, and when I'm back to Penang, I will learn how to cook from my mum.

      5) Lose weight
      Haha. This has been my dream like since FOREVER!!! I've been wanting to lose weight since long time ago. But everytime ended up fail :( So after 3 years, I must lose weight! I want to be slim! I must start practising now! Well, I mean lose weight in a healthy way of course. At least I want to lose this tummy of mine, and other parts too...

      6) Be an optimistic person
      I'm a pessimistic person sometimes. I tend to think that "I cannot make it", "OMG HOW!! I'm going to DIE!!!!" From now on, no more the word "die"! According http://dictionary.reference.com/  the word die means, to cease to live; undergo the complete and permanent cessation of all vital functions; become dead. So the word 'die' means to be dead, no longer alive. I happen to realise that there are thousands of people dying or suffering each day. Die of hunger, got murdered or accidents. And would I want to compare my "dying" situation with them? No. Whatever happens, I should feel thankful. I don't want to be like "Shit, exam on this Friday! How? DIE!" Come on, exams can kill me? Hahahhaa..... What I mean is, I must be thankful though the situation is not good enough. I know I always complain this and that, here and there, left and right, black and white, so please, no more "die". Perhaps the word 'cham' or 'aiyo' to replace the word "die"? Hahaha. If I cannot do well in something, figure out how to make it well. If the weather is very hot, apply sun block and wear sun glasses. If it rains, then don't do my laundry, and go to sleep to enjoy free "air-con". If lecturer gives a pop quiz and I didn't study, then just screw it, what's the worse could happen? :D And the most important of all, if the food sucks, be thankful that at least I have food to eat, and eat less so that it helps me to be slim. So it's like a win-win situation. Hahhahaha... I still need some time to be able to practise that =)

        So far, these are the 6 simple things that I'd like to achieve. If I have anything more, I will update it :) I hope I can achieve it. What do I mean "I hope"? I mean, I MUST achieve it!!! So dear friends, please be my witness, make sure I've achieved all this when I graduate! :)
