To The Next Step

Finally can update my blog d. Juz to inform my friends that I'm no longer studying in UniSA, Adelaide d. After finishing my year 1, I tried to apply Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Management course from University of Bradford UK by transfering my credit. In the end I got the offer and got 4 subjects for exemption. They also offered the same course in one of the Singapore private institute which means that either I can study in UK or SG, anyway the degree certificate is awarded by Uni of Bradford(UoB). So I choose to study in MDIS(Management Development Institute of Singapore) better compare to UK, because UK is more expensive than Aus & SG. So... good bye my "Aussie" friends (Yuen Hon, Joe Wee, Jin Han, Jia Yong, Alvin, Avril Ong, Pooi Leng, Jeremy Choo, Huat Kun, Zen Whey, William, Hong Zhang, Wendy Chong, Christine Lee, Yon Hon, Jey Sern, Jennifer Lim, Bernice Lee, Anand Babu, Niresh, Vishal, Wei Keen, Jinxk Koh, Zhen Lik, Song Qiang, Peng Hooi, Vietnamese friends, China friends and others)

Furthermore SG life is the same as Malaysia only, everywhere is hawkers food. Everyday juz go out and eat rather then cooking. Everyday can drink 'KOPI-PENG' d. Then the communication is easier, especially HOKKIEN and Mandarin. No need to keep speaking english to those "ANGMORS/GUAI LOU" d. Here really convenient, got MRT and buses, just tap with EZ-Link card only. But the weather very hot, I miss Aussie winter season, so cooling and no need to sweat at all. I missed Hungry Jacks alot la..... T_T

If wanna compare the uni's life, UniSA is alot better. The class timetable is more relaxing, our timetable is very pack and quite stressful. Besides, my institute's techonology not that advance at all compared to unisa. The PC is lousy and the printers are limited, internet speed so super slow. But no doubts la, come to SG is much cheaper and better than Aus. Anyone who wish to contact me, this is my number (+6592236558).... Cheers !!! ^^

Penang Tragic Scene

~!爱吾钟灵!~

纪念钟灵中学龙舟队遇难者

GEORGE TOWN: A dragon boat training session involving Chung Ling High School students ended in tragedy when a teacher and a student drowned after the vessel capsized in the waters off Macallum Street Ghaut here. Four students are still missing. The boat with 18 people on board had become unstable after being hit by strong waves and it crashed into a tugboat moored nearby. It capsized after it was hit by a second wave at 9am yesterday. The authorities mounted a search and rescue operation involving some 100 personnel to locate the missing students.

Rescue operations were called off at 7pm when night fell although surveillance was still being conducted at press time. 15 students, 2 instructors from the Penang Forward Sports Club and a teacher were on board when tragedy struck. It is learnt that only 12 of the 18 on board wore life jackets. The body of teacher Chin Aik Siang, 28, was found at 11am while that of Jason Ch’ng, 17, was found at 2.50pm. Ch’ng was among those wearing life jackets. The missing students have been identified as Brendon Yeoh, Goh Yi Zhiang, Cheah Zi Jun, all 17, and Wang Yong Xiang, 16. They had gone out to sea for their weekly training in preparation for a competition in July. The race has always been held at the Teluk Bahang dam but the venue was changed last year to the Bandar Sri Pinang fisherman’s jetty off Jelutong Expressway.

Student Kuah Zi Xun, who was sitting at the rear of the boat, said the group was on its final lap when the vessel was hit by a strong wave. “It then rammed into a tugboat. A second strong wave hit us and overturned the boat. All of us were thrown out. A strong undercurrent pulled all of us down,” he said. Zi Xun said only 12 of them managed to swim up to the surface and stayed afloat. Some of them swam some 400m to the shore while others were rescued by passing fishermen in two boats. Three students were admitted at the Penang Hospital for minor injuries while another was discharged after receiving outpatient treatment. Devastated parents of the missing boys wept uncontrollably near the scene.

Lets pray for them and let them R.I.P.

Happy 2010 Year !!
