waiting for that particular person.

i think it's time. it's the time for a new post.

wahahha what an introduction?

ha.ha. whatever.

anywayyy.. right now at this very moment... i am waiting patiently for this one particular creature to come into this computer lab in Findlay Commons. (if you wondering what the heck is this place, hurm it's like a place, like a hall that has several places to dine and also a place to hang out and study too. in short: a rojak place? (rojak is a food when you mix up any kind of food or fruit in a bowl and add in sauce)) oh ho.

so now after waiting for almost one hour, seems like that particular creature won't show up.
oh i wonder where that creature is?

anyhow, today i had math class and econs. math was just as normal as usual. and yeah we had short quiz, it was moderately easy, hope i got it right...amin... econs? hurm, i have 2 hour and a half right after math class for econs. so i went to the HUB (ngaa forgot what it stands for but it a place where you can get anything you want. okay not almost everything but yeah most of the thing). i guess i need to speak louder and stop plugging earphones in my ear every time i need to order food. i was refraining myself from eating fish and chips and fish sandwich instead. but somehow that didn't come out very clear. and so fish and chips for my day. which means for lunch and dinner. maybe you wonder why. do ya? americans eat in such a big portion if you compare to Malaysian I would likely say. i could never finished the meal (the big ones). so that explains why the americans are bigger than us. a bit of regret there for not articulating the order well. i know i know this may sound confusing and you might wonder what the heck is she's writing? i don't know either. haha simply craps.

eating at Findlay dining hall is super duper fun and doesn't really a good food for my stomach. i think i'm alergic to cheese. since everytime i eat cheese, a few hours after that, my stomach will go crazy. huhu.

so that's about it. all i know is eat and eat.

right after econs class finish and that's it. i'm done for the day. i waited for White Loop (a bus) to come. called umar and forced him to get me some stuffs..haha cruel? ;P since he was in walmart with Hani and Aini so why not. I am so lazy to go there. I rather walked than take the bus. but noooo. it is too far. i'm not shafieq or kamal or acab who walked to walmart. walked. alright. they walked. they walked on road. they did not walked on the road to get on the bus to get to walmart. they walked on the road solely to get to walmart. crazy? yeah you judge. well not to make things huge, that is a record. none of us have ever thought of doing so. yea yea, good jobs boys.

then next stop was at&t. it's a mobile company. i went there to change my phone since it made some annoying sounds and people were laughing and giggling about it. so yeah i get a new one. hope this one will not make any sound. hopefully. now almost most of us got our own phones so it makes easy to get one another. perhaps to catch dinner or just to go in a large group to noneother than walmart. haha.

then back to my room. Marie my room mate was not around. i did know what to do, just get my table clear. few minutes afterwards, she came in and we filled in the Roomate Agreement. it is such a convenient way to communicate and accommodate well with roommate, i can sure you date. the forms require us to be honest about some matters that may come up one day and cause trouble to roommates. so it is a good thing. we agree on some stuffs and disagree on some too. but most of the time we get along very well. i don't know. maybe we both are easy going and don't really mind about small little things. hope we both can be a very good roommate. i mean good as in we both can talk to each other if there's anything wrong. yeah one thing she noticed is that we both are quite. and it turn out that we both actually not. it just that well yea, we both are from different life styles so we need time adapt to new surrounding. so excuse us. my floor mates are very nice. whenever we meet, we say hi and hello or just smile. that one thing i really like about people here. they are so polite that i seldom bump to anyone since we watch on our pace and make sure others won't get hurt. the only thing that i don't really fancy about is that they are loud and yeah never study in your room unless it is 4 in the morning. no worry, there are tons of room to study here. especially the library. i l-0-v-e the library. i intend to spend my weekends there. weepee. hope that will come true and i won't end up strolling around the campus again without motive.

aha. it almost dinner time. so i need to get out of this place. yeah one thing. although i have my own laptop in my room but i seldom touch on it. you see, i can find computers almost everywhere and get the access to log in to the net too. isn't dat cool. now i realize why seniors said that computer is not really neccessary. phone is indeed neccessary. it will be super hard without phone. yes. indeed.

ok ok got to go.
sorry no pictures. and again, you can always click on my friendster account for pictures.
till next time.

Journey to the west

I am so lazy to type any words so allow me to just copy and paste one email I gave to my family.

Assalamualaikum wbt to Abah, Mak, Lan and Mira.

I'm safe and healthy in Pennsylvania right now. Let me tell what happened in the last two days. While at the KLIA, everything went smoothly. I got to sit next to my friend, Nublan Zaki. Almost all of us got to sit with among us. The seats were full. Foods were great too. Tapi kepak glak dudok dlm plane for almost 12 hours. Then we stopped at Stockholm and had our security check up. It was strict and slow. 1 hour and half was spend merely on that. We got back to the same plane but less people inside. So most of us changed our seats to sit near the window. There was one time when the plane went through the north pole and it was freaking cold! But I didn't aware of that since I slept like a pig. Haha. Then at almost 7pm (USA time), we arrived in Newark. Adoi, I'm so regret that I didn't bring the serunding because they won't confiscate it unless I declare it on. But never mind. Two Mara's officer waited for us and brought us to Mariot Hotel. The next morning at 4am we rushed to the airport and we were late! The check in procedure was so slow that one of us missed his flight. But that was because the plane was full, no seat was available for him. Luckily we had Mara officer to help him out and he took another plane. At Washington, we were separated into two groups. One departed at 9am and the second group at 12.30pm. So I was in the second group. We got the chance to explore the airport, and it was unbelievable hi-tech! To get into one gate to another, for example, from gate A to B, we have to take a shuttle bus which it will come in 5minutes. The bus will dock into the terminal, something new for us here. Something macam when our angkasawan naik to the ISS. When the rocket docked into the whatthename of ISS, remember? The airport is huge. When we were hungry we bought sandwiches, make that vegetarians'. They were huge! and cost us about $3 each. Then it was time to leave Washington, we took a very small plane, almost 5 feet 10inch height with 3 seats per row. My friend had to bend down to get into the plane because he is tall. The flight was ok la, we were served with drink only. At 1.30pm we landed safely in Pennsylvania. The scenery is fantastic. Banyak gunung ganang, country style. You can say it's a kampong la. Our senior picked us up and 13 of us got into taxis and went straight to our dorms. First thing first, we got our room keys and check in. My room mate is my friend, named Ezzaida. We are now living in a temporary housing until we finish our orientation which starts tomorrow. Then after we sent our bags to our rooms, senior brought us to register our ID. It was fast. We got our ID straight away. Then we opened a bank account and it is PNC Bank. We were given instructions how to get money from home but I forgot how. hehe I'll get back to you about that later. Having all that settled down, we headed to a halal Indian restaurant. Nice foods. After that, we went back to our hostel and rest. At night, the seniors brought us to the Wallmart, something like Tesco. But I didn't follow because I was too tired. Huhauha. All of us had to buy a pillow because it is not provided. Sigh. Then today, we had an amaxing race, haha. Together with my friends, two boys and one girl, we headed up to the downtown which takes about 20minutes walk. By the way, University Park is very huge!!! The buildings are almost the same and most of the time I get confused with the roads. So, play safe, I go out in a group of people. We ate at a Waffle restaurant, nyaman la juak food sia. Oh here, tipping is a must or else they will disrespect us. Seniors said reputation is very important here. If we dine in McD, we have to throw away all the leftovers by ourselves because they don't have waiters. They only have cashiers. But the cool thing is that we can always top up our drinks. There's a drink section provided. Oh ho, there's a lot of culture style I have to learn. After we had our breakfast which cost me about $3, we decided to go to the Wallmart! We took a bus and paid $1.25. Luckily we ride on the right bus or else we surely will lost our ways. Of course, we asked the local how to get there. Then at the wallmart, I bought one comforter -$14.50, one pillow (very comfy!!)-$2.50, foods : vege,tuna pizza, french fries, all of them can be cooked by using the microwave. (p/s every room is provided with a fridge and a micowave). body wash-$1.80 and a hair band-$0.99. Almost all the stuffs are quite cheap IF we don't convert to RM, of course. But still, seniors said the cost living here is just moderate and we can save a lot of money. Hopefully. I am extremely refraining myself from buying unnecessary stuffs. You can say I am super duper kedekut now. Cannot borong stuff anymore. Then we got back home with the same bus and I slept almost 6 hours! Woke up in hunger, I reheated the tuna pasta and it's dinner time. At 10pm, most of us can't sleep and some of them felt hungry since the weather is cold though it's summer, and we headed to McD in downtown. Then here I am now at the Computer Lab at 1 am. It is 24hours. Don't worry, I have many friends with me to go back to our hostel. Plus, if we feel insecure, we can call the police to escort us. I'm using iMac now!! so cool! This place has only dell and apple computers. The internet speed is super fast.

About hand phones and laptop, seniors said that we won't be using hp much. Because most of them are using internet to call home. but since they are many of us in my major, so maybe we'll get a hp. the system here is like this: we buy a hp line and get a free hp. if we do it individually, it's expensive. but if we have one leader like a father la, and with 4 anak-anak, then it's in a reasonable price. I'm not sure how it works but I'll figure that out. Laptops? Hurm not sure whether I'll get myself a MacBook since it's more expensive that a normal laptop. A common dell laptop is about $600. MacBook is $1000++. Oh ya Abah, the adapter here is expensive. huhuh so I borrow from my friend and I look out for a not-so-expensive one someday.

Woho, that's a long one. I think I've got to go now. I am doing great here except just that it's getting very cold here..
Convey my regards to all our relatives, teachers and my friends.
I love you all and take care! Miss ya. Pray for me ok??

Love,
Sharifah Nor Baizura bt Wan Mohamad.
PA, Sunday, 2.15am,
The super fast internet connection in PSU Computer Lab.

p/s: Mom, my hand carry, the one with trolley, rosak!!!! aaarrggg~ so I have to carry that all the way but nasib baik it was damaged when I arrived in PA. To make it became handy dandy, I stored all my foods there. Teehee. I hope I won't eat much and become KURUS. ha.ha.

***

so people, here I am now in Pennsylvania!

so sorry that I have ZERO pictures. that will be later yeah. ;)

so-not-jiwang-so-in-love

although i can't stop myself rambling for all dizzy-funny-terribly-things happening on me, but now i am addicted to Aa+Bb!!!!! this book makes me neglect pride and prejudice,Jane Austen's.

I can't never say i hate this book.

I used to hate the so-jiwang-karat-ntahpape-x logic-too fantasy-impossible book.

but this one, is an exception.

good job, Hlovate. (the writer)

i'll study hard and get what i want.

and become a better person to be with better person that i 100% deserve.

"perasan. masuk baju dalam mesin basuh. basuh sendiri la.."

"masuk lokar tutup sendiri laa"

"pemusnah alam.."

"come hell or water, I'll always on your side"

"perkara yang berlaku sangat luar alam.."

"dream of me, will ya?" - benz
"i hate nightmares" -addin

xD

benz alif? ade eh name camtu? lawak.
addin shah? unique name.

can't help myself from LOL.

but but but, one thought. geez. exist ke orang camni? do they really exist? i know that is just a story but i always wonder can this be a reality? if there's any, woho, surely that one coolest life. maybe i can create one.Ha.ha. not funny at all or too funny that i forgot to laugh.
no joke, i fall in love with the language. selamber nak mati. sukerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. tak skema like others which drive me to sleep and end up baca last page je. tak jiwang karat, ok jiwang ade but comel, i like. dunno bout you, but i do. and yea, I AM NOT A JIWANG PERSON. noktah. yea yea one more, tak fantasy sangat. i mean cam ade sentences dat describe one particular person to be too perfect to exist. "muke kacak, badan tough, anak datuk, drive bmw, pandai, bijak, romantic, almost 6feet tall (helloooo, average malaysian height x sampai itu kan), mata bening la ape la." okay no offence ya, this is my personal view. take it or leave it.

oh btw, it's a malay novel but mixed up with some english which we the malaysian always speak and yeah a bit of spanish which i l-o-v-e, a little of dutch and yadayada.

bought one for myself to bring to the states. Naaa.. I dun care. come hell or water, I'll bring it. Stuff in my hand luggage or fold it into small pieces surely no hal laa. Wajib cam bawak tafsir quran and passport.

adoi nape lah malay novel x seringan english's????

okay one announcement.

"I won't be here till one exact date which is to be unknown. "

spread my wings and fly away.

i've been super duper again, busy.

anyhow,
insyaAllah,
in another 72hours I won't be here. Anymore. Goodbye Malaysia.

KL-Newark
Newark-Washington
Washington-State College.

approximately 21 hours.

hoh.

hope everything will run smoothly. Amin.

ps: kalau saya ada hutang wang ke ape ke sila tuntut pada saya selewat2nya rabu, 6 Aug. Kalau ade ke tp saya x sempat nak bayar, halal kan je lah ye. :)
