I thought i'm abandoning this blog as I started it just to record my university experience years ago. And the url of the blog is just silly - 'life as a uni student'. I'm not a university student for years. Shall I still continue? LOL.
I've decided to continue writing randomly again as I wish to record down my life experiences. It I want to look back, at least I can and I may laugh at myself again on how silly I was.

Unreliable bus company -Qistna
Bought ticket back to hometown on Good Friday from this bus company. Boarding time should be 1200am. Now it's already 1248am, and the bus is not arrived yet.
They said the bus stuck at custom. Need to wait till 1am. Hello, you operate the bus company for so long, don't you know that during public holidays it's really crowded and you should have prepared the bus much in advance?
Second, they are "trying" to speed up the process by getting the passengers to alight the 4seated bus. Hello, long distance/journey bus ticket that we bought is 2+1 seating. What do you mean by this? Trying to save petrol and earn more or really trying to let the passengers get to their destination earlier?
This is really disappointing. That's why right now I'm killing my time writing this blog

Review on Jonsson Protein Healthy Hair Growth
Time:10.33pm.
Finally I'm sitting on my couch after shower, cool down and just feel like want to write this review.
I prefer to write it in story. haha
Story as below
Today, I went for my scalp treatment at Jonsson Protein. Reached at about 545pm. Did what I need to do : scalp treatment.
However, after treatment (which ended at about 745-8pm), the consultant brought me into the consultation room to let me see the result after ~15 sessions of treatment which started August 2013 till now (march 2014).
Not long after that, she tried to persuade me to sign up for another 10+5 sessions which cost ~SGD1350
-the deal is actually 10 sessions
-free 5 sessions (as I'm so called the 'old customer which is progressing'...pui!)
-free Jonsson products that worth SGD ~238
Of course, I listened to her as usual. At the end, just told her frankly that I do not wish to continue the treatment as I do not see the results that is up to my expectation. (in my mind I'm thinking, maybe just that the product just don't suit me, or I didn't go for weekly treatment as they suggested). I repeated at least 2 times, saying that "I just want to finish the remaining sessions that I signed up (~4-5times) then I wish to stop. Reason being, I'm not very convince with the result that I see.
Tadah~ Here comes the HARD SELL method. She explained:
-now I'm at the 'regrowth' stage of the treatment, if I stopped right now, all my money/effort will be wasted
-they fight for me to get a cheaper price 10+5 sessions for SGD1350 and if I never sign up, the results will not be up to my expectation.
The first consultant didn't manage to convince me. That time it was about 850pm. I thought she is going to let me go. Who knows that another consultant came in and talked to me. WTH. Again, she tried her very best to persuade me to sign up the 'promotional package'.
These are some of my replies:
- I went through 15 sessions, I have another 4-5 sessions left, make up a total of 20 sessions that I'll be having.
- 15 sessions, I'm not satisfied with the result, that's why I wish to stop.
- What's the point for me to sign up another 10+5 sessions to make up a total of 35 sessions which cost around SGD 3750 just to prove that your product is just not the one that I want? (FYI: I paid SGD 588 + 588 + 600 + 600 )
- I understand you are trying to explain the importance to go through all the stages to see the results, but hello, I also explained frankly that if I (as consumer) wish to let go/give up, it's my choice.
She is rather 'stubborn'. Just like how she describe my pores which are stubborn and that's why the hair growth is slow/not obvious. During the conversation, she wished to know the feedback, saying that feedback is good so that they can improve their services etc etc. Most of the time, I got no chance to speak, as whatever I say, they will just find ways to prove that I'm just so wrong
At 913pm, I just burst out of frustation. You want feedback? Ya here is my feedback and the story goes like this
"You, too hard sell. I've told you that I don't want to continue. But you never let me go. See now what time it is? I reached here before 6pm, now it's already 9pm+, I haven't take my dinner. This is hard sell. "
She seemed a bit stunt, then politely asking me when I want my next appointment to be.
"You make me don't feel like want to come back again. Forget about the appointment". Then I just leave the damn stupid place immediately.
Before I leave, I heard she said "I'll call you again for your next appointment". Ha! Forget it, don't feel like I want to walk into that place again and let you all hard sell your package again. Don't even think that you will be able to contact me as I changed my number.
Honestly, I'm just damn pissed off right now. Probably because I wasted to much time just in that place (at least 3hours), I'm tired, I'm sleep and I'm HUNGRY! And while I'm typing now, I'm having my 'dinner'. Biscuits and milo. Stupid people.
Why cant they just stopped when I already repeated at least 3x that I do not wish to continue to 2 consultants? Why do I have to listen to their talk twice and I have to repeat my decision so many times? Why you want to make your customer upset/frustrated?
Actually, I never blame on them that I never really see the result that I want as I never really compliant to their advice : weekly treatment, daily hair wash (I wash alternately thou), complete whole set of treatment programme which is more than 30 sessions.
Just that I do not want to continue further. DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE FURTHER. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME????!! damn it!!!
Finally I left that place with frustration. You want feedback right? Here they go.
1. unprofessional staffs.
-Just simply apply the ampoule on scalp
-simply do some massage which is sometimes painful as they use their finger tips rather than finger pad
-wash your hair and 'splash' the water on your face (not the right word to use but my brain just stopped functioning due to my anger!!!). This one shouldn't be happening!
2. poor management
-insufficient staffs but they still take on so many appointments which cause you have to wait. I waited up to 2 hours or more to complete my whole treatment. Ya I understand that it maybe because my hair is long. But so what? I still need to wait for people to serve me. Which sometimes I sit there up to 30 minutes waiting.
-I have to say that the service in Plaza Singapura branch is worse than the branch in White Sand. Originally I attended to White Sand branch as Plaza Singapura branch is not open yet. I need to travel 1 hour to reach there. But I managed to finish my treatment for 1hour 15 minutes to 1.5hour. Not like the Plaza Singapura branch, as in average it took 2hours to complete everything.
3. Break promise?
- as I'm financially tight, they allowed me to pay the money separately as long as I'm still continue my treatment. Guess what? My next session they request for the remaining money as they said the management questioned them why this customer is not paying in full.
Don't tell me about your free hair cut service which I don't give it a shit!
Just so angry today!! AAARRRHHHH!! stupid fellows that spoilt my day and I'm damn tired. Definitely won't step into this 'dark shop' again. Considered that I donate the remaining 4-5 sessions left to you.!!
Just finished with my 'dinner'. Good night everyone.
p/s: I know that I'm writing this with 'anger mode'. Some of the things may sound stupid to you. But, I just don't care.

"Long Time No See"
For years I never log in into my blog and almost forget about it. When I looked back, last post was on 2011. Mmmm, so meaning about 3 years I never touch it. 3 YEARS!! So lllooooonnnngggggggggggg~
Quickly skim through my posts, found it funny anyway. Glad that I wrote down some of my thoughts/feeling. And now that I looked back, oh my I've grown up. LOL.
But still certain things still remain the same from student to working life. (Yeah now that I've started working for nearly 2 years). That will be my view on my future/job.
I feel like want to continue and write something so that one day I can read back what I've been through my life. It may be interesting anyway.
Ok I need to dig some time out and start re-blogging again. hahaha~
P/s: felt bad that I never reply to a comment long time ago (2012). Sorry!!~

Just have to live in my small world
Almost 3 years in university, my perception about things keep on changing. LOL.
I still remember initial how bad i wanna study dentistry. Then I changed. I wanna be friend with dentists only. I also wanna earn a lot of money after I graduated as a physiotherapist. I want to further my study at least until master degree and get specialized. I want to be famous in this field. hahahaha.
Then now, I changed again. I dont want to be a physiotherapist anymore because of my clinical experience in the past 2 months posting. I felt like this job is not suitable for a female. Let's think. One day, if you (female) are a normal person, you will get marry, pregnant, have your own family. If, I were pregnant, am I still able to do my job? No. I will be unable to carry/transfer patient. Hospital environment is full of germs/bacteria/virus. Wont it harm me myself and my baby? Right? How long am I able to 'massage' other people without hurting my joints?
So, currently, I think I wanna be a primary school teacher since I enjoy it a lot when I work as a temporary teacher in 2008. It's fun. Compare to a physio, where I have to see the infected terrible big wounds. People said that you have to see beautiful things during your pregnancy. haha...
Since right now I have no intention to get further into this field, so I dont know whether I've the right to think about going overseas to further study etc etc. Going to overseas is my dream. I want to see the world. But it seems like my only reason to go overseas is vacation isnt it?
So, right now, I dont want to think too much. I should know my capability. So, I'll just have to bear with it.

Something to be doddled on
For a long time I didn't update my blog. (even though I'm doubt that there will be people reading my blog. Neverthelesss, I still want to write what I want to write ^^)
Currently I'm in my 3rd year first semester. Finished this sem clinical posting and now I'm in the middle of my exam. LOL, I realized that most of the time when I was posting something, I always do that in the midnight and during exam time. Probably this is the most stressful and 'nothing-to-do' period.
I sincerely hope that people around the world can really live their lives happily. Even though if you are:
1. poor/living in poverty
2. in extreme environment-cold, hot, volcano erruption, earthquake, landslide, flood
3. alone/not marry/not dating anyone
4. wounded/injured
5. failed in study/exam/stress
6. sacked by boss in work/office politics/stress
7. etc etc
Because when you think you're so unfortunate, then you tend to self-pity and blame everyone on the things that happen to you. Isnt it?
The most important thing is, your family and real friends. If they are still with you, there is nothing for you to feel sad/depress/stress/the world is ended.
Life never goes according to your wish. Hence, it is challenging because sometimes you can't fight against it. Learn to accept it even though it is hard. And try to look in the positive way to make yourself happier.
We human beings can choose either to live happily or sadly. Of course, we want happiness. Therefore, live it happily~
There is still half glass of water more. (Half full) or
There is only half glass of water left. (half left)
Which one will you choose?

Unwanted Worries, Stress, Depression
I am wondering whether I have any psycological problem or not. This is because I always worry about somethings unnecessarily. For example, right now, starting tomorrow, I'll become a third year physiotherapy student. I'm worry that I can't make it because until now :
1. I still feel that I am blank. I do not know what I've learned.
2. I feel insecure about the prospect and future of this course.
3. Neither I like nor dislike this course.
Are the reasons above reasonable?
1. Until now I still think that mostly what lecturers taught in lecture are not really helpful in practical/clinical posting.
2. There are so many physiotherapy graduates recently as a result of the mushrooming of the private institutions that offer this course. Even the current President of Malaysian Physiotherapy Association -MPA, 2010 says that there are too many physio are produced and he urges the government to stop giving license to the private colleges or universities to offer such course. Even though most of it only provide diploma program.
3. I have no true feelings about this course. During my first year, I dislike this course because this is not the course that I want to study. However, gradually, I started to think that this course is interesting because of a good lecturer. Next, comes a lousy lecturer that spoils my interest. This is not a big influence however. Then, during clinical posting, a supervisor that only will condemn you without giving you good advices that can help you in the future.
Maybe I'm too 'weak' mentally. Probably I should train myself intensively.
Reality is always so cruel. But sometimes we can't change it. Thus, we just have to learn to accept it.
