ISU Blood Drive

Yes.

For the first time, I decided to donate blood. 

I'm still unsure of the reason I went for it. But I know I debated for half a day, and I skipped my duper boring thermo class and spent more than an hour registering and queueing up for it.


My badge lor.

Sadly to say, I weren't approved to do so. They told me that my home country that I visited few months ago has risk of exposure to malaria. 

DANG.

My last Spring Break

Was very fun.

Spent most of my time @ Hyland and ISU campus, the 2 places I'm gonna miss a lot after I graduate. That's my initial plan though, but I ended up travelling to more more places. I went Iowa City to shop, Independence Iowa for a plant visit, Sioux City Nebraska for Rachel's interview. The best part of all my travelling is the last part when I know I reached Ames. 2 reasons. The destinations were very sien, and Ames is just way too fun. Some pictures!


Started off with a pot luck on the first day of the break. 

Then all of us headed to Frederiksen Court to see what Keng Gee was up to. It was his birthday. We found his apartrment, rushed into his room! We spotted ZT spreading some love on his face!


Nah, he wished. It was some left over cheese cakes that we used to pawn him. That's all of us.


Partay after that! Look at ZT's dulan face pointing at the Mongolian lady with red hair band who puked on his bed haahha.

The next day, bbq @ brookside park. 

We had a visitor from Iowa City.

And another from the tree. 

It was Heng Li!

Learned slack lining. The new sport up in here.

Camwhoring on a slack line!

Haaa.. campus grass.

Rachel made 面粉糕!

Sioux City has a Floyd monumen that looks like a pencil.

Rachel poser.

Me!

Spring break has ended. Classes resumes. 9am class tomorrow. I shall enjoy classes. 6 more weeks only.

Quote of the day that made Siti a happy man:

"Ok la you are very handsome!" Jennifer Tan, one my my IE partner.

Hahaha she's right btw. =)

Mm.. Well, although I think she's right, but I doubt that she thinks so.. We were walking back home from class today, she was saying about how my brother and I look so alike, and I told her to be honest to say how handsome my brother and I are.. And so she did!

"Well it's a sad day, and I'm gonna make you happy ya." Jen Tan

It actually did.

Isn't it magnanimous. Thanks Jen~!

Ever since I reached Ames 3 years ago, I always felt fortunate to have a bunch of friends to hang out with and my sister taking care of me . I always felt warm. I have a bunch of great-hearted friends, we take care of each other, throw snow, throw strawberry juice, "consume", travel, celebrate festivals, supper, breakfast, and a lot more together. How to get homesick like this.

Some of us even take things and get things done to another level. We volunteer to spread our love and passionate of consideration to more Malaysians here. We organize trips, host events, raise funds, gain reputation, and a lot more.

We do this in order to achieve a common goal. I always emphasize on this ultimate goal, which is to have fun and be happy. At first I learn how to have fun. Then I often show others how to have fun. My alien-smart TA once said,"the only way to succeed in your academic is to find a way to have fun out of it." I think it's true.

This is what we practice since my first semester here. I can see that many many of my friends here are like this too. Jen is definitely one of them. We spread cheesecake on each other's face. We vacumn each other's balls. We comment on each other's stupidness.

We put a smile on each other's face.

We put money into each other's pocket.

This is what we do. You thought me that.

"Do you know what is friendship?"

You know. I know. HE knows.

Wtf were those posts for man?
