Can I have a Puppy with me?? :(

Oh...I saw a puppy walking with her owner yesterday...IT was SOOOO CUTE!! :(  I wanted to hug it...Hehe...People who knows me for years knew that I Love Dogs a LOT! In fact, I'd love to have some...Hahaha! Oh oh oh...I guessed I'm SO desperate to have a dog in my life. you know what? Dog appears to be a "doctor" to me...They heals your pain and worries...They are your entertainers too! IN fact, when you're down, THEY CAN SENSE IT! Believe me! Dogs are really AMAZING! They seemed to be able to read one's mind! ESP (Extra Sensory Perception) huh?? Perhaps so...:P

I knew my Whisky has these abilities...!!! When I'm down, I'd talk to her, bring her to my lap and tell her about my stress...Then she'd listen and lie her head on my chest...(seems like hugging me, but of course, she can't hug me by stretching her arms like a normal human!) ...Then, when I come back home, my face is so so sour (these are the days when I'm schooling and I'm so tired and worn out OR after my Exams over but I'm not feeling good about it...or ....), once she sees my sour face, she'd wag her tail and smooches her head on my leg...Hahaha....She WILL and WOULD wait for me to come back from School everyday...And once I saw her cute pretty face, my heart sank and all my worries would just be gone till I forgotten what makes me sad or something...Sigh...But now,....Now, Whisky's in Taiping...And Sherlyn's in Spore...We're so far apart...And no one to wait for me to come back from school anymore...No one to make me happy when I'm sad anymore...:(   No one to  talk to when I'm sad anymore...:(:(:(

I MISSES YOU, LIL WHISKY!!! :(

It's Time to Get Started to WorK~

After almost a week's of 2-3 hours sleep PER DAY, I finally get to sleep early yesterday. Wait! Don't say I try to slack, cause i'm not trying to slack that time...I need to give my brain and my body some rest...THEY had worked almost non-stop for 2 weeks! 


Anyway, yesterday's paper was considered OKAY, but....I'm not satisfied...Cause I'm not sure what others think about the paper...If they think it's easy, I'm drop dead! Oh well, I pray to Lord to help me get an A for it...PLeaSe...I really worked really really hard for it, till I sacrificed the day which I supposed to study for my Biostats...Please Lord, don't fail me for my Biostat...And I need an A, at least to pull my CAP...PLEaSE :'(


 Well well well...I was awake early today! Initially I slept at 10pm yesterday, or I think earlier a lil since my clock was 20 minutes EARLY! Hmmm...And ...initially my alarm clock woke me up at 5.30am...But I off-ed it and said that I should sleep a lil bit more...And there I doze off again...
Then, I'm up at about 6.45am,...Google on some videos for heat transfer...Cause my lecturer a bit...ahem...Sigh...It's time for Missy's body and super-brain to work...Well, not super brain, ...Cause I'm not SMART like many of them here...Sigh...:(   OKay, after feeling rejuvenated and all up, It's time for me to get Started to work!


Dear CM 1161, though you failed me twice badly, I'm gonna make full use of these 5 days to FULLY UNDERSTAND you AND make you my SERVANT! >.<
I HOPE I CAN MAKE IT!! 

Fold a thousand of paper cranes, and a crane will grant you a wish...oh my..true?

What The Hell?

Was studying and checking my emails to de-stress awhile...And came across this email (after heard about the flash stuff from a few friends...) Guess what? Read this!

"Greetings Residents,

Recently, there were several cases of indecent exposure reported within our premises in Prince George’s Park Residences. The culprit would approach the victims or call out to them to attract their attention and expose his private part. Our Security Officers together with the Police and Campus Security have since stepped up patrols within our premises.

2. The culprit’s description is as follows:-
- Believed to be Male Chinese in his late teens or early 20’s;
- Either fair or tanned complexion with short black hair;
- Big build and about 1.7m tall;
- Wearing dark T-shirt with bermudas or shorts. In all the incidents reported, he would pull up the collar of his t-shirt to cover part of his face to avoid identification.

3. You can avoid being the next victim by adopting the following preventive measures:
a) Do not walk alone and move around in a group, where possible;
b) Never take short cuts through dark, secluded or deserted places;
c) Always be alert and attentive to your surroundings;
d) If you are being confronted, remain calm and quickly move to a crowded area or call the Fire Command Centre (FCC) of Campus Security for assistance.

4. If you see any suspicious persons following you or loitering in the vicinity, remain calm and take note of the description of the person, e.g. his appearance, clothing, height and other physical details. You should also note the direction where the culprit fled towards and his mode of escape.

5. We advise all residents to be alert and report to FCC at 6601 2222 or Campus Security at 6874-1616, if you spot any suspicious character loitering in the vicinity. Should you have any information that might assist us in the investigation, please contact me via DID: 6516 5548 or email me at azharie@nus.edu.sg. Your information will be treated with the strictest confidential. "

Omg. I wonder why it would happen in my hostel area?? Ughh...means no more walking alone around PGP at late LATE nights...No more using the KE SHOrtcuts...Anyway, nowadays I'm very guai...I seldom go out...Or use the shortcuts...So, I'm safe lo^^ But I wondered, if is it a student studied till the brain gone hay-wired? I remembered just last month there was a case about a MOE scholar who flashed to a student in FASS at NUS...I wondered if it was the same person?? Or...Hmm....But whatever it is...It is damn scary...!! I think I'd SCREAM my lungs out if I'm the VICTIM...But if I screamed,...later that culprit kill me...Oh shooot...~~

Is it TOO LATE for me to SEE this? :(

How To Be A Dean’s Lister – Part 2

The Pain is So Intense that...

I was asleep at 11 something, thinking that I should wake up at 3.30am to study...But...all of sudden, for the last 15 minutes, the pain in the chest was SO UNBEARABLE...I thought as if I'm going to die...:(

This is the 2nd time this chest pain stroke me...It was so unbearable and each time it lasted about 10 minutes...The first time when I had it is just about a week before my exam period...Oh God, what made this pain comes to me? :'(

But at least while writing this post now, it subsidized a lil bit...Aww...How I hated it...Thanks for waking me up and I have to get back to study again..Ouch...Miserable life :(

NUS=National University of Stress

I'm still in the state of shock...
This is the ever first time I was in total shock...Till I almost fainted...in the exam hall...NUS O NUS..Why do you have to make me feels so STUPID? :(

Everything at here is so super super difficult..I'm fear that I will fail...I know some of you might think that I'm pessismistic...But...try sitting NUS exam and see, and you'll know how dull NUS made my life be...

O..Is it a wrong choice? I refused to say that it was a wrong choice...Because I'm the one who made this choice...I can't said that I regret...Perhaps I did regret a little...What I wanted is a universally recognised cert...And NUS can give me the assurance...But...if I were given a choice to go Australia to study instead, I would go there...Cause...I uhm...Don't really trust Msian education system...:(

Uh uh uh...I guessed that today I won't have appetite to eat either...Why Miss Wong is so "evil" ?? :( Anyway, again, I should be the one to be blamed...Initially, I did the first question and I thought it was okay, when I flipped to the second page, I don't get what is the question trying to ask me to do...I reread the question, and I still can't solve it...I've only 2 info...One is the percentage of neutroophiles, and n=50...How am I supposed to find what's the percentage for a healthy body to have less than 0.52 neutrophiles??? I started panicked...And my brain refused to work..This is the worst thing in my life...I was so SO SO panicked that time...And time is running out!!! Wth...

NUS ...is really the University of STRESS!!!!

Sigh...I've finished 9 chapters of my Stats lecture notes...And I've still have another 3 lecture notes to go...Haven't even do my cheat sheet yet...*cries* While I was jotting down all the formulas while I was studying, I realised 9 chapters so far already "eaten up" 10 pages of A4 paper...Ughh...Sob, how am I going to fit in all these formulas into ONE A4 paper?? Sob sob....I don't hope to use the microscope to see the tiny LittLe Formulas in the Exam Hall...Ugh ugh ugh...

And I have to chiong for my GEM 2900 lecture notes as well since my exam will be a day after my Stats...FYI, GEM 2900 is also another stats mod...But it's SUPER DUPER interesting though YOU HAVE TO SQUEEZE your JUICY BRAIN to think of the probabilities since it's more towards LOGIC sense...And I really really LOVE the MODULE...
O Lord..I pray to you that Lord will at least give me 2A's this sem...I REALLY NEED the A to pull my CAP :( Pls please please...I pray to you, Lord...:(:(

Sigh...I'm super duper scared ....Aiks...I guessed I should start going on my GEM 2900 chapter...Hope to finish at least 15 chapters today...O Please...Sigh...GEM 2900 got 24 chapters...Chen Pei Yi ah Chen Pei Yi...Why ur lecture notes so many sia?? :(:( Anyway, I like you a lot cause you're the best lecturer in NUS!!

Carmen Rasmusen - Nothin' Like The Summer



Was playing on Taylor's mix playlist on Youtube while studying my Stats ...Came across this song..I guessed it's beautiful...So, I shared^^

Sherlyn, Go Go Go!! Another 6 chapters of Stats to go...Then have to continue my favourite GEM mod lecture notes...Argh...23 Lecture notes to study for that...Ughh...Hope that I'll be able to make thru it...

O Dear Adrenal Glands, start working! You have enough of 2 hours rest just now!! Must work work work hard!! And it's going to be worth it in the end...Keep thinking positive, Missy!!!

Missing Mummy...:(



I misses Mummy...When I listened to this, I realized how great my mum is...
I really don't know who I should talk to in school when I'm down...But I know that I can talk to mum when I'm down and sad...
I don't know how my friends at here can be so mean...But when I talked to mum about it, mum will felt sad for me...But she will always tell me things to make me happy...
When I'm stressed about my studies and cried to her, she will always said "It's okay...just try harder next time..."
When I wanted to eat something, she will try to get it and cook for me...Whenever I wanted something, she will buy it for me...

Hence, this year, I really hope to give mummy a surprise on her birthday...

Fake A Smile

Can I just fake a smile now?

Ughhh...I am still haunted by Organic Chemistry...Why even in dreams, I still dreamt of you? I dreamt all these compounds floating in my head...Why don't you float in my head yesterday when I need YOU in the EXaM hall yesterday!!!?? I don't want to hate you, Mr Organic...I still "LoVe" you no Matter how shattered you Broke my HeaRt...But I just wanted you to Leave me aLone a while so that I can uhhmm...release my sadness...

I will still choose to study you during the sem break even though I don't have to take "you" again in the coming semesters....

The Climb

I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa

No matter what, I must keep going...This song really reflects what I'm feeling right now...I don't hope to bury my face into the pillow now, but...why it is so depressing? I guessed some people will look down on me, and says that I'm stupid cause no matter how hard I tried, I still can't do it...I really tried my best...I really do...I sacrificed my 3 days with only 2-3 hours of sleep, not even have the chance to take a nap in the evening...I'm forcing myself hard...But I just don't know why...I studied...I thought I remembered...But...it's my fault...I know...My fault for not borned to be smart like those people here...My fault for being skill-less in studying..My fault for not knowing how to tackle exam questions...My fault for not knowing how to manage my time...my fault for being a slow student...I really did my best, I just don't know why....I still can't answer them...I aimed to get A for it, cause I really like Organic...But why you have to kill my heart? I wasted Derek's efforts..I wasted jefri's too...PEople came all the way to teach me, and yet I still could not succeed..I really tried to keep a positive mind...But each time, I'd failed to do so...Can someone teach me how to face these? Although deep down I'm sad today, I tried to hide it and act as if I'm happy, but...the truth is...I am NOT:(

Friday, April 22, 2011

Thanks, Derek~

Though it's only 2 hours with you, I'm already contented...Thanks a lot for willing to sacrifice your time holiday to teach me though today's is a Good Friday...And thanks for chatting and spend some time with me for almost an hour just now...I think I spend my Good Friday in such a worthy way...^_~ Thanks to you, for being my driving force. Thanks for your wishing...And thanks for being so kind to me and willing to listen to my "fan nao"...Though you could never provide any solutions, it's okay, cause I know there's no solution to my problems...All was my own fault...And lastly, thanks for keep using the long way twice just to make sure about my safety and thanks for being concern about me...^_~ I guessed you're the best TA I've really ever met...!!:)

Happy for Now because ....

Oh oh oh...I know I shouldn't blog now. Cause I still haven't finish the chapter on that book...Oh oh oh...Sherlyn, what are you doing?

But...I just wanna express how happy I am...At least for now, after receiving Derek's reply...Yay~~He's sooo kind ...The kind-est guy on Earth? Or maybe in Spore?? :P:P

We will be meeting after 2pm...^_^ Thinking of meeting with him again drives me to push myself harder...Oh oh oh...What's wrong with you, Sherlyn??? Study till brain gone hay-wired is it???

But when I constantly thought that I'd be meeting him tomorrow, I had a sudden drive to do my best. To mug. Wow. Miracle? Hahahaha! Sherlyn has never been so driven by anyone before...Oh oh oh...

Okie...Anyway, gotta call back home later cause I misses talking with my mummy...This evening didn't get to talk much ( I told her about Derek only halfway >.< )...Hahaha...Have to tell mummy I got this awesome good TA de...Ah...Basically, I tell mummy almost everything also..HAhaha...That's why I am comfortable to talk to mum about everything rather than anyone else in the house. Cause daddy doesn't allow me to mix with guys. If he knew, he would chain me up...And sis is too serious d...I don't know how to talk to her about study life or love life or dots dots dots...Only mummy that listens...That's why people thought that my mum is like a best friend to me...Hehe...Perhaps, I'm lucky enough to have her as my mummy, someone who understands how suffer and struggling her daughter is in her studies and so on...So, Sherlyn, you must appreciate mummy more!!! Never never never disappoint mum, and MUST BE A GOOD GOOD GOOD daughter!!! Must help her in house chores when you got back...Must help her out in the kitchen...DON'T COMPLAIN when she asked you to do this or that!!!

Lastly, Mummy, I am sorry for being such a naughty and ignorant daughter in the past. Please forgive me...:(

Mummy Got a New Phone~~^_^

Sorry...it's Missy Sherlyn again...

She was too excited that her mummy got a new phone...Thanks to Cheng Yuen anyway...

Missy Sherlyn was so happy to receive a miss call from Msia that she immediately phoned back the number although she doesn't know who it is...But as long it is a Msia number, she supposed that it must be only someone who knew her Spore number! So, who else would have called others than people who I love from Msia?? :):)

The moment she phoned back the number...Missy Sherlyn got so excited to talk to her mum again...Sigh...Missy Sherlyn felts guilty for keep breaking her promises to call back home during the weekends..But she has every reasons to break it, because...uh uh uh...her life in Spore was too hectic that she hardly have time for herself and even for entertainment...Missy Sherlyn always felt happy to call back home, to destress and complain to her dearest mummy how tough her life at here be, and mummy would always patiently listen to her naughty lil daughter's complaint...Sigh...

Missy Sherlyn recalled back how each time when she was stressed with her studies, talking to her mummy and complain about it, or taking her lil baby up on her lap to study together...She misses every precious moment of it...But she couldn't do all these now...in NUS...:(:(

Sob...Missy Sherlyn has the strong ambition to give her dearest mummy a better life...So that mummy can enjoy her life...Yes, Missy Sherlyn was a bad bad daughter...She used to be a very naughty and ignorant child...But since Missy Sherlyn came to NUS, she started valued how precious her mummy is...Uggh....Homesick now...She wishes to go back soon. She misses her beloved Taiping...She misses her hometown besties...She misses her mummy and her beloved baby...And she misses her comfortable bed...Oh oh oh...She misses those every precious lil moment...

Since mummy has got her new phone, she shall be happy with it...Cause she really hope that she can sms mummy more often...Without letting her dad read all those messages...>.< Cause Missy Sherlyn always tell all her lil lil lil secrets and her uni life with her mummy...Can talk with mummy about boys who treated her lil daughter good...Which daddy will got into total madness if he knew that she mixed with guys...=(
Omg...Sherlyn...What are you doing here??? You have to start studying instead of blogging..ugh...but I had a sudden urge to blog. Sorry :(

just finished my ES1102 paper...Just as what I expected...The essay is about volunteerism...Hopefully I did this essay better than I did for my class assessments...xOxO...

Deep inside, i suffered...But my mind is telling me to look things in a different persepective, in a more positive way...I hate Jazz...First time I hated a guy so much ...zZz...>.<

Anyway, let's not talk about hatred. I've been mugging till 6am yesterday because of my last minute preparation for ES...It was a super super last minute preparation (I started studying at 11pm...) Sigh...

And I realized one thing. Haha...I guessed I should throw all these clocks away.Hahaha! Cause...dots dots dots...Not gonna tell you.:P:P
Cause it was far amazing that I can stay up that long...For the first time..I mean since I came to NUS...No doubt I stayed up all night before while preparing for Form 6 (2nd year) May exams...Silly sia...Don't know why after that I terus tak boleh tahan till late night to study after that time...

Is it that I am getting excited towards the exaMs noW??? Couldn't be. I am not someone who likes exaMs...I am not sure what's driven me into that way either...Anyway, I have yet to take my breakfast or lunch...And my stomach's already signalling to its master that it's super DUPER TRIPLE HUNGRY!!! Gonna cook plain mee sua..Sigh, due to lack of money, no special ingredients in today's cooking for me..:(

This is SOOO TRUE ..tsk tsk

Facebook fans do worse in exams
Research finds the website is damaging students’ academic performance
Jonathan Leake and Georgia Warren

FACEBOOK users may feel socially successful in cyberspace but they are more likely to perform poorly in exams, according to new research into the academic impact of the social networking website.

The majority of students who use Facebook every day are underachieving by as much as an entire grade compared with those who shun the site.

Researchers have discovered how students who spend their time accumulating friends, chatting and “poking” others on the site may devote as little as one hour a week to their academic work.

The findings will confirm the worst fears of parents and teachers. They follow the ban on social networking websites in many offices, imposed to prevent workers from wasting time.

About 83% of British 16 to 24-year-olds are thought to use social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace and Bebo, to keep in touch with friends and organise their social lives.

“Our study shows people who spend more time on Facebook spend less time studying,” said Aryn Karpinski, a researcher in the education department at Ohio State University. “Every generation has its distractions, but I think Facebook is a unique phenomenon.”

Karpinski and a colleague questioned 219 US undergraduates and graduates about their study practices and general internet use, as well as their specific use of Facebook.

They found that 65% of Facebook users accessed their account daily, usually checking it several times to see if they had received new messages. The amount of time spent on Facebook at each log-in varied from just a few minutes to more than an hour.

The Ohio report shows that students who used Facebook had a “significantly” lower grade point average - the marking system used in US universities - than those who did not use the site.

“It is the equivalent of the difference between getting an A and a B,” said Karpinski, who will present her findings this week to the annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association.

She has not yet analysed whether a student’s grades continue to deteriorate the longer he or she spends on Facebook.

Some UK students have already spotted the potential danger. Daisy Jones, 21, an undergraduate in her final year at Loughborough University, realised the time she was spending on Facebook was threatening her grades - prompting her to deactivate her account.

“I was in the library trying to write a 2,000-word essay when I realised my Facebook habit had got out of hand,” she said.

“I couldn’t resist going online. You do that, then someone’s photo catches your eye. Before you know it, a couple of minutes has turned into a couple of hours and you haven’t written a thing.” Jones is among the few to have recognised the risks. According to Karpinski’s research, 79% of Facebook-using students believed the time they spent on the site had no impact on their work.

Facebook said: “There is also academic research that shows the benefits of services like Facebook. It’s in the hands of students, in consultation with their parents, to decide how to spend their time.”

Sob...this is so so so true...No wonder my sem 1 performance was uh uh...Hmm...Should Missy Sherlyn continue deactivate it or not? *undecidable*

Missy sherlyn wants to stay connected with her friends...She wants to get updated and more...She wants...oh oh oh...Is she finding excuses for herself again? Anyway, Missy sherlyn thought over about it...Can someone activate it for her instead? So that she would have no consciousness that she "has activated" it....uh uh uh...Sighhhh....

(Jason Mraz) I'm Yours - Sungha Jung



i am so impressed with him...Too bad, he's sooo young :(
But his face really looked alike J...he really looked like him...This made me thought of J again...Anyway, I realized I'm more comfortable to let go off J now...I understand why he would choose her over me last time...Like what people said, forget about the past, let it be a history...And look forward for the future..:)
Missy Sherlyn thought of writing her bloggie in a new way...

Cause Missy Sherlyn is bored bored bored with her usual way of writing...

And Missy Sherlyn is blogging again...Uh oh..Not sure if she's TOO STRESSED now or TOO RELAXED?

Missy Sherlyn is tired and sleepy...So, she is now BLOGging to keep herself ENErgiZed!

Most people have their first exams this Saturday onwards, but Missy Sherlyn is having her first paper tomorrow. What a bad day. Others got much MUCH much TIME to STUDY STUDY STUDY...on the other hand, Missy Sherlyn has LESS less LESS time to STUDY STUDY STUDY =(

Missy Sherlyn needs to put EXTrA effoRts this SEMESTER! Missy Sherlyn has to do her BEST BEST BEST to pull her CAP...But Missy Sherlyn has low energy level...tsk tsk tsk....Uh oh..Is Missy Sherlyn giving excuses? Perhaps so!

Anyway, Missy Sherlyn just hope to do her BEST BEST BEST!

p.s: I realized I am getting more excited to go on now. Tomorrow's paper is 9am...Hope I won't get up late for mugging this paper at the last wee hours...uh uh uh...:( It's time to get back to study and let's turn this STUDY MODE ON and get myself into the mood for Exam Fever! :D I hope to finish my papers faster so that I can start on my lil research...^^

2nd semester final: Exam Fever is just about to start

Tomorrow is the first day of my 2nd semester finals...tsk tsk...While others are still having time to study for their Organic Chemistry and Stats...Missy Sherlyn is lack lack lack of time...And Missy Sherlyn is trying really hard hard and hard...Though it was really tough tough tough...tsk...

perhaps Missy Sherlyn's room is too too too quiet...[blame my lappie that I can't turn the music on =( ] that all she hears hears hears is the clock tick-tock-tick-tock, non-stop...From morning to now! sigh...Sob, even the time is bullying Missy Sherlyn...=(

and missy Sherlyn Still have another chap of Organic Chem to go...The last chap...Ya Tuhan, tolonglah patik yang kesian ini untuk retain memorinya...Missy Sherlyn telah cuba sedaya upaya untuk complete lecture notes ini semua...Harapkan ku boleh duduk exam ini dengan penuh confident. @.@

But sadly to say, uni Organic is not equivalent to STPM Organic chemistry...Kesiannya patik ini =(

Anyway, I have no idea why I would write in Malay today. Siao d...

Ahaha...I actually took a short nap just now, Cause my Brain is telling me that it's tired. So, there's no point to stare at your notes when your brain need rest right? *ahem*

Oh yeah, this must be the first time ever that I am constantly checking my NUS email! Lol...Waiting for Derek's reply ma =P

*praying that he'd be willing to spend his Good Friday to teach me...Sigh...Bad student. This is the only word that I can describe myself...tsk tsk *

Anyway, I had these crazy thoughts of what I really wanted to do this semester break!

Since I said that I always wanted to promote healthy eating (though it's inevitable that healthy eating is hard sometimes when we are really really BUSY!) ...I was thinking that I should explore more on the food which are healthy and to create recipes on my own? Lol....Though I'm not that talented. Like I've told ya, I love health-based fields...That's also the reason why I am choosing Food Science over Life Science...

And also, because Food Science sounds more appealing to me? Haha!

Anyway, these crazy thoughts might not be crazy after all i guessed! :D:D

Cause Missy Sherlyn wants to build her own dreams...and Missy Sherlyn wants her dream to realized...though life might be tough ahead, Nevermind! Missy Sherlyn needs to look ahead and never look back...So, Missy Sherlyn is learning hard to be optimistic...though Missy Sherlyn is not smart like all the smart students around her...


Salads and Desserts~~

(Hahaha...This was when I'm studying while cooking the peanut soup. :P)

(Seriously, I didn't expect that it would taste good! Haha...Anyway, it's just a simple dessert to make though. :D)

(Omg...This salad that I made is seriously mouth-watering to me! All nuts and grapes and veges are making me so so so enthu to eat it...:P:P)

Uhmmm...Yummy...These are all my first time...Especially the peanut soup...And it tasted great too! Though it was my very first time..Muahaha...I am praising myself! :P:P

Lol Lol Lol...

Here are the pictures! Take a peek!:P


Cooking Spaghetti for the First time....





These are the photos while cooking spag with Trang, my cluster mate. Lol Lol Lol. We always do groceries together...She's an exchange student from Vietnam who is studying in NZ...Hmm...A good friend and listener but likes too eat a lot! LOL! Sometimes it was really lucky that I can have someone to share food when I cooked too much. AHAHA!!!

Tick tock in the Morning

=(

I told Derek the wrong date about my CM1121 exam. How I can be so careless for telling him the wrong day? :(

Silly silly lil Sherlyn! ='(

*Letting out a deep sigh while looking at the clock* Even the time is bullying me...=(
I was awoke and 9am, read my lecture notes. When I finished the part that I didn't manage to finish yesterday (cause I fell asleep halfway), time is already 10.45am...

Sigh...Time O Time...Can you please tick-tock-tick-tock slower?? Perhaps, I need a time machine to turn back the time =( How cool it would be? :P

I fell asleep while I'm trying to take a 10minutes nap yesterday...*sigh*

And I couldn't finish my studies...=(

When I woke up, I realize how silly I am to remember the wrong date for CM1121 exams...Derek O Derek, I really hope that you'd be able to spend time on Friday with me =(
Sigh....Why this Friday have to be a Good Friday? =(

Sob to max. Anyway, I'm waking up now. I must get started. So, I need you hormones. =D

I've finally found a way to keep me awake! First time I can stay up till almost 3am...Sorry, I tend to blog while taking a rest now:) Wait a minute, we must give our brain some rest right? We cant expect our brain to work like a machine right? :P

Hahaha...I am quite contented. Perhaps, I guessed this time, I got a BETTER picture of my lecture notes now =)=)

I was trying to take a 10 minutes (at most) rest now...I guessed my cluster mates are thinking that I'm a mugger. Ahaha. No, I am not. I am not like them. I can't mug. I just tried my best today cause I don't want to disappoint Jefri who came all the way to NUS to tutor us. And I also don't want to waste Derek's precious time for teaching me as well. So, I must do my best to make their efforts worth it.

ADRENALINE...NORADRENALINE...Here I Go! :):)

ps: It's been 5 days since I deactivated my Facebook account. Don't worry my dear Taiping besties. It's just temporary...It won't go long. :)
Anyway, I realized that through these periods of FB deactivation, I learnt to be a lil private person. Since I tend to tell everyone how I felt or whatsoever, I guessed I should just blog everything here. Since not many people who knew about my blog :P:P

Bye peeps! Love ya all! Can't wait to see ya all in Taiping:) And also, thanks a million (well, it can't be expressed by numbers actually)thanks a lot for all along being so supportive and caring towards me. I'm really really touched to have you all as my best friends...Muacks muacks muacks to ya all ^_~

With love from Spore=)

Reading other's blog seemed to energized me...

Well, I realized the only time when my brain can absorb most is when there was no tension (due to exam)...I know how well my brain works. But these things , saying that we shouldn't study for exams is a lil hard, don't you think it's a lil hard, especially we are living in some sort of exam-based world? The so-called education world?

Sighh...I love medical sciences and health-related subjects. I love drugs ( not meant by taking it, just to know more about their chemistry)...
But the saddest part is that i have neither an excellent functioning brain like most of the students here nor an effective study skills like them ='(
I guessed I'm not someone who is borned for examinations..
and im not as hardworking as those freaking muggers here..
somehow i know i'd love to study if i get the freedom and without stressed by this word "EXAM" !! =D
Sigh...I also hope to be in the dean's list too...I am trying hard d...I really do...If compared to how hardworking I am now with my previous years (STPM too), this is the only time when I mugged like crazy but still, not like others so good at it...Perhaps what I am good at is to sleep halfway while I'm mugging
>.<

I have a big ambition to create a health and environmentally-friendly food products...I always wanted to be in a medical or health related field. I know my ability, I know what I can do and what I can't. I don't hope that my ambition is just a merely something which I can dream on. Cause if it is just a dream, then it will vanish when I am awake. But I want this dream of mine to be realized. You see what I mean??

I am striving to stay in the library to study...Cause I know I have this big ambition, although I know perhaps, only a small part of this dream might realized...

Sigh...People in NUS are busy mugging in the library...I tried to mug in the library yesterday, but it was a failure. Sigh. I wondered how people can stay awake for the whole day. And why my energy leveled so down by 10 or 11pm? :( sob...

Anyway, while I am constantly blogging while others are busy mugging, I supposed it's time for my "old" adrenal gland to start working too! Oh adrenal glands, please secrete more and MORE ADRENALINE to make me work...!!!! O Chem, HERE I COME!

ps: i guessed I am more energized now. Perhaps blogging really helped me a lot. 30 minutes or less to blog, and while at the same time, NO FACEBOOK-ing cause I deactivated it. Well well, I must mug at least 8 chem chapters by tonight!! Jia you ba!:)
Enlightenment~~

Was supposed to meet Derek at 3pm, but he had to delay it because he got stuff to do...Anyway, I understand...Since i'm asking for his help, and he's not even my TA (just a lab TA), so I can't complain much. I patiently waited for him while I re-read my notes...

Then, I looked for him at 4.06pm. He wasn't there. I was like..."You gotta be kidding me. Fong fei kei?" Then, I just stand at there, waiting. Then, he came from outside. Again enlightened. Just don't understand why I am happy. Anyway, we discussed things one-to-one. :):) I'd prefer it that way actually. Cause there'd be less interruption. He brought me up there to discuss cause there were people at the other end.

He was patient to teach me. :) Sigh...Slow student :( I told him I don't understand the thing and how to visualize it, then he patiently showed me using my papers and teach me how to imagine it. Haha! I am so SORRY Derek for taking your time so much...:(:(

But I guessed we'd be meeting again on Saturday...which I think I should work harder, means I should do the past year questions ...Ughh...There was a guy asking his TA (I think it's his TA and asked him how to do that question...and even his TA was not sure...And asked Derek)...Oh shit, Derek wasn't sure either. Sigh..sigh..sigh...I am FREAKING SCARED!!! :(:(

I need energy! I need energy! I need energy!!

Ugghhh...It's mugging period. I still felt myself lacking. Sigh...I don't understand why my Organic Chemistry has leveled so down..:(:(

I wished to have Pn Teh to teach me again, and Mr Lok...I think that way only I can retain everything at once...Sigh, I used to say to the juniors that Organic Chemistry is very easy. But now, ughh...:( *shaking heads*

Sigh...Is it university level, that's why it's tougher?

Hmm...Oh gosh, I'm damn hungry now. Superb hungry. zZz...Why today only I felt hungry?? I've been taking salads for 4 consecutive days...till my cluster friend also said that they are "stressed" to see what I ate. zZzz...That's only for my dinner dear. >.<

But yesterday, I made myself an awesome salad! :P:P

Lettuces + Grapes+ Raisins+ Mixed nuts! These mixing makes my salad taste superb! Ahahaha! No dressings of course. I tried not to add any mayo or anything into my salad...Cause I wanted to cut my calories...

People asked where's my protein. Uhm...I told them, I took eggs, salmon and chicken OCCASIONALLY. Hhhmmm...There goes my proteins...zZzz...I want SOY MILK ! I WANT SOY MILK! But no $$$$$ :(:(:(

Sighhh...I made the Enoki Fritatas and miso soup for my lunch today...Lol Lol Lol...Can't imagine taking miso soup is only 17 calories! That's why I drank it quite often (when I felt like cooking). Nowadays I just felt like cooking. But cooking is just soooo time consuming...Just like today, it already took me almost 1 hour plus...Deep sigh...

Anyway, my dearest friends, since I temporarily deactivated my Facebook account, do visit here regularly to keep posted !:):)

p/s: I am nervous. I re-read my Organic Chemistry 2nd time. And I just stopped till Chapt 12. Still got another 9 more lecture notes to go before I have to meet him, Derek...The good-est lab TA I mentioned before. He was really kind. Omg. Omg.

Oh yeah, haven't tell ya all something VERY RANDOM that happened to me this evening. Hmm...I was walking towards Central Library, and this guy smiled to me. I just smiled to him and walked. Then, he approached me. I was like, "whoa!". Then, he was telling me about the voucher thingie. Then suddenly asked bout how old I am (he says I doesn't look like a uni student and I looked very young to him >.<) Lol..Of course when someone said that you looked young, you'd be happy. But how many % you can trust them? Maybe they got "yan mao" behind one ler???? Hahahah!! Okay...Then he started patting my shoulder and asked if I had a boyfriend. I was looking at the voucher thingie, and my mind wasn't really concentrating, so I just answered what he asked. Then he asked if I am available? Now this is so random!

Then, he said that the voucher is worth $200 but he was offering at only $30...I was like..."WOW!"...Then he wanted to set a deal, I told him I don't have money. Then, he said "Oh.,nvm, we can go to the ATM and withdraw.." I told him, my bank account also no money de...(This is an honest answer la...This showed how broke I am :( ) Then, he said, "oh...Uhm...okay...You don't tell anyone this ok? I do this only for you. So that you'd go for a date with me...Will you like to go for a date with me?" Then I said " Hahaha! Hmmm...That was a real random question...." Then he touched my back again and said "Oh...Haha...Just joking...But I give you this specially, you don't tell any of your friends ok? Can come and visit me anytime. Since my restaurant is just behind where you stay"

I just said..."Oh okay...with that voucher...And eh...this mocktail really free??:P" Then he said, "yeah, with that voucher only...You can order 4 cups of it, it is non-alcoholic...and you can leave after you drank without any payment" Now this is a good thing. Haha. Drink for free :P :P :P

Lol....Then before I go, he touched my back again. I was wearing bare-back initially. But luckily, I was wearing a cardigan that time. So, his touch was not in contact with my skin...If not, scared me sia! I can't imagine this would happen to me...Hhmmm....

How to Make Mini Enoki Mushroom Frittatas

From Mr Ben Kim (Healthy Eating)

As a Food Scientist student (LOL...), I would love to promote healthy eating...Since I've been practicing myself to eat healthily, I think going all-vege isn't something really bad. People might think vegetables are not nice to eat, but hey, we can actually be more creative a lil and dare to try various recipes and explore ourselves! I am not someone who is so fancy of vegetables as well...But I've been eating lotsa vegetables this semester since I've started to cook myself! :P

I'm craving for salad lately, so, I've tried making various salads too! Lettuce isn't that bad after all (I used not to like it last time) :) I've made chicken salad yesterday, but due to lack of ingredients and time ( financial was also one of the factor), I still find my chicken salad lack of something. Hmm...I've thought of adding grapes,berries and some nuts into it to make it more fancy!:P

Anyway, lemme share with you this awesome enoki recipe which I found from Dr Ben Kim's webbie which I've subscribed (it's free!)


I suppose you could call them mini mushroom omelettes, but enoki mushroom frittatas has a

nice ring to it, no? However you choose to name this dish, know going in that it provides a

wonderfully chewy texture that makes it natural to pair with rice or noodles.

You'll need some organic eggs, a large handful of a favorite herb or two, and a small package of

enoki mushrooms.

.Koreans often put protein-rich enoki mushrooms in miso-based soups and stews for their

subtle yet hearty flavor and of course, their exquisitely chewy texture.

.

Start by chopping off the roots so that the stringy tops are free to scatter.

.

Just one clean chop through the middle will leave you with manageable strings of enoki

mushrooms that will help form your mini frittatas.

.

Use your fingers to separate the mushrooms so that they sit in a loose pile in a large bowl.

.

Now chop up a large handful of any of your favorite herbs to add to the mix. On this particular

day, we went with chives. (since I don't really like chives, I will skip this. But some people might

like it...)

.

.

Give the mushrooms and herbs a light toss and mix.

.

Then whisk up your eggs and add them to the bowl. For one large handful of enoki mushrooms

and a large bunch of herbs, you'll want to use around six large eggs, which will produce about

six to ten mini frittatas that are about the size of your palms.

..

Warm your cooking oil of choice (we use extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil) over medium heat

in a large pan. Once the pan and oil are sufficiently hot, use a ladle to spread a small, pancake-

size circle of egg, mushroom, and chives on your pan. I would recommend doing one or two

individually at first to get a sense of cooking time, and then doing a few at a time.

If your pan is thoroughly warmed over medium heat, you should be able to flip your mini frittata

within a minute. Once you flip it over, give it a solid pat down with your spatula to ensure that

you aren't left with some uncooked egg within.

.

.

These mini frittatas are best gobbled down while piping hot, so try to have other components

of your meal ready so that you can begin eating as soon as the frittatas come off the pan.

For seasoning, we go one of two ways. The quickest way is to sprinkle a little sea salt and

pepper to your batter before you cook up the frittatas. If you want more of a rich, Asian flavor,

try making a dipping sauce by combining three parts soy sauce with one part sesame oil and a

splash of your best vinegar. Definitely a mouthwatering combination.

Sorry that I didn't have time to write this out as a separate recipe without photos. If you need

just the instructions, I suggest copying and pasting into Word and printing from there.

Ah, and leftovers are easily saved in containers and re-heated in a toaster oven.


(Have a nice day! And try it! I'll try it tomorrow, and it seems to be tasty!:) )

I am mentally stressed..

Perhaps I shouldn't call back home today...

Why my dad don't allow me to work during the holidays!!!??

Stupid!! Why must my brother got married at such late date!!!???

I hate it! I hate it! I hate it!~!!!!!!!

I felt like shouting on top of my lungs!!!

I'm already stressed with my studies, why must they add my stress to the highest level!!!???

My dad don't even know how suffer I am here. Did he think that the money he gave is enough for my living?? I am so suffered with my financial life here, that I'm all debts! And I need a job to cut off all these debts! Why can't he understand this!!!??

I really hate it! I felt like telling someone how sad I am..But I don't know who should I talk to. I deactivated my FB because of some reasons. So, I can't emo at there, but here...:(

Anyway, it's pointless to emo there...People just don't understand how you felt. They just don't know, because they aren't in my shoes!

I am deeply frustrated. And sad.

I thought I could work during the semester break ...But now how~!!!!! Tell me what to do!!!!

I hate this stupid life! It seems that it is a dead end for me. I have no solutions, not allowed to work, and yet have to pay off all these debts.

I felt like running away. I wanna go to a place where no one will never know me. :(

T________T *Stop crying!'*

I AM GLAD... :):):)

Hm...Finally got my replied from him^^...But other thing worries me...Sigh, I've forgotten to claim my $128 from the Econs department just because I'm too busy and occupied with my school stuff...:(:(:(

Will I be able to get that amount back? Why would they missed my out!!! ?? *screams in anger* :(

Anyway, I gave Chen Pei Yi a chocolate today. Sigh, I should be more observant. I never knew she liked Snoopy till Pei Yi (my friend) told me :( I just knew Chen Pei Yi likes dog, but I didn't know she liked Snoopy...If I know, I'd buy anything with Snoopy for her :(:(:(

She's the best lecturer in NUS, and I really likes her a lot! Not only her lectures are interesting and entertaining, but she's really kind! That's also the reason why I voted her as the nominee for best teacher award. Hope she'll get it :)

Hm...I really hope to be able to take other mods that she is teaching :)

And oh yea, Sher lyn...please continue to study!

My brain is exhausted but I've got to continue...:(

I felt so unproductive..I am supposed to finish Organic by today...But I have to delay due to my unproductive-ness...Why o why ? Is it because time passed too fast? But why am I absorbing things so slow today!!? :(:(

*screams*....*pulls hair*

Sighhh....I saw my TA today, but he seemed to be unable to recognize me...*Disappointed*...:(
I think he's really a good TA...The best TA I've ever met...Really! That's what makes me like about him. (Not in terms of feeling!) I've seen him during our Chem lab...All along...How he helped others...His concern...And so on...

I remembered there was once something about him that leaves me a VERY GOOD impression towards him. It was during our last lab work (last Wed...:( Sigh...can't get to chat with him again:( ), my friend's things burst(not burst...it's just that the stopper went off and all the chemicals just splashed like that..) due to pressure while shaking the separatory funnel...He immediately helped my friend to get another apparatus and help her to set up... See?? Can you find such a TA? Someone so kind like him?? Unlike the Lab Tech...Only help those pretty girls!! Those he considered not so pretty, he wouldn't even bother! >.<

And he's really really patient and "ti tie"...I remembered something went wrong with my crystallisation during my 2nd experiment...He kept coming towards my place and asked me how is it...Hahaha...It really touches me...Cause I've never met such a kind soul like him before...While everyone almost finished their experiment, I was slow because of my silliness and blurness...Though I've read the manual and watched the video in the morning :(

But his humor is what I like. He's not arrogant like the green lab tech! He's kind, patient and sweet...Hehe...Seriously, I really will give him a VERY VERY GOOD remark if the survey for the TAs are out...SERIOUS!

But then, sigh...how can he just forgotten me like that!! ??? :(:(:(
*Deeply disappointed*
Aiks...Nevermind...Anyway, I just hope to see him again to have a chat again ....
Good luck, Derek in your lab research :)

I want a Chemistry major boyfriend...:(:(

Sigh...I'd prefer guy friends who are smart in Chemistry...Sigh...So that we can study together and he can teach me whenever I don't understand certain stuffs...And we can always talk about chemistry together...How good it is?:) Sigh....Why my life has to be so suffering...?? :(
Anyway, sigh, I don't know any Chemistry major people much, and those guys I know are already attached or too good-looking, and I'm just an ugly girl...Stop day-dreaming, Sherlyn:(


Friday, April 8, 2011

Yesterday I was under a severe depression. I almost did the silliest thing ever that I've always against with -- to take my own life. I remembered that yesterday, when I reached my room. I straight away go to the bathroom and open the shower tap, while I'm still dressed. And while my whole body still wet and cold, I went to the kitchen....And thought of taking my own life. Initially I thought that the height was not that high enough, impact on me won't be that great. But I really too depressed. I really don't know what's going on with me. I can't think straight. I really don't know. It was like my feelings controlled my mind. I saw a chair right next to the window. I climbed up and it was really cold. Possibly due to the strong wind and the bath I took just now. I stood there for seconds and closed my eyes. I have sights. A lot of scenes passed across my mind.

It was then, I realized, I still have my mum. And my Taiping friends that loves me. What if I died?

Second thought, I realized my good friend (unfortunately not from NUS), sms-ed me after seeing my FB status. She asked me to keep moving on despite of my failure. Even if I get really bad results, I am still in the battle, and I'm still the survivor. That's why I should never give up hope and I should stand back on my feet again and to fight against this war. It was what that touches me. After all, nobody in my FB wall that manage to understand the situation that I'm undergoing. They never try to know what's happening instead of just give comments. (though there are some that gave really good and encouraging comments like Roy and Ivy...)

I know, I am fragile. I am easily shattered. But sometimes, do you think when you received "tamparan hebat" for twice in a row, can you accept it? Especially when this is the first time ever I received such a number. And after I've been studying so hard for that mod for 3 weeks before the exams, how can you accept that fact of failing? Do you guys actually understand the feelings I felt? Do you guys ever put yourself in that situation before commenting on my FB status? I'm not trying to imply anything here, but just that, you all judged me too early before you all try to understand what situation I'm undergoing.

I called mum just now and told her how sad I was . Again, I cried. Each time when I talk about it, I'll cry so badly, and I'll ended up crying for hours...And I'll ended up using more than 5 pcks of tissues. I know there's no use of crying, but it's just my way of releasing stress and to let go of my feelings. If I never cry, I think things will be weird and I won't know what I'd do. Mum is understanding, but dad...He kept saying that it was my own fault, that I FB alot. Yes, I admit I FB. But I've been reducing. I on my FB most time, but that doesn't mean that I'm available. I post a lot, but it's just when I'm stressed when I study, that's why I post. Sometimes, people just don't understand me. But I'm glad I had a few friends that really understand me.

The Secret Anti-aging of Japanese women

What Is It About Japanese Skin Care That’s So Good?

Did you know that hundreds of women search Japanese skin care on the net every day?

Yes its true. The word Japanese skin care is very popular and searched regularly on the internet every day. And if you didnt know why then you may be a little mystified about why so many women search this word.

Women don’t search “Russian skin care” or “Icelandic skin care” do they?

So why do these women search Japanese skin care so often?

It is not so well known but Japanese women have stunningly good skin right into old age. They have less wrinkles and their skin just looks great.

Why? What is it about Japan that seems to result in Japanese women having such good skin?

Of course the Japanese have a good diet. They eat plenty of fish, which provides omega 3 oils, known to be good for your skin, they eat plenty of vegetables and rice and overall their diet is very healthy.

And a good diet is very important to healthy skin.

But is a good diet sufficient to explain why Japanese women have great skin? Other people have good diets too.

It’s one specific part of the Japanese diet that has been found to be very responsible for the great skin found in Japanese women.

It’s a seaweed called Phytessence Wakame. It’s a big part of the Japanese diet.

And they’ve eaten Phytessence Wakame for centuries, both dried and fresh. It’s well known that the Japanese eat seaweed.

So is there something about Phytessence Wakame that is good for the skin?

It is full of all sorts of things all of which are important for skin health. Like essential minerals such as calcium, iron and potassium. And lots of the B group of vitamins. And antioxidants.

But there is one other thing about Phytessence Wakame that is very important to the skin. The most important benefit of eating seaweed to the Japanese skin.

There’s an acid in the skin called hyaluronic acid that is essential for maintaining great skin health, specifically skin suppleness and elasticity, both crucial for great looking skin. Suppleness and elasticity, or the loss of them, is a disaster for your skin.

But your skin also has an enzyme called hyalurinidase, which breaks down hyaluronic acid, and this is bad.

And some very smart scientists have worked out that Phytessence Wakame helps inhibit the effects of hyaluronidase. This is extremely good news for your skin.

That, in a nutshell, is the secret of great Japanese skin care.

And fortunately there is one company that is at the cutting edge of skin care research that has worked out how to isolate the essential components of Phytessence Wakame and put them into skin care products. The results are impressive.

Similar results to those experienced by Japanese women from eating Phytessence Wakame.

Now you could if you wished find some Phytessence Wakame and eat it every day, if you like eating seaweed.

Now you know the secrets of Japanese skin care.

Visit my website to find out where you source products containing Phytessence Wakame and get the benefits of eating it without actually eating it.
