Roughly about 4 months more, i gotta end my diploma in pharmacy and proceed to my degree
(crossed fingers >.<) ~
time flies.. from the day i knew about this course ..
attracted by the extra experience of internship in community pharmacy as well as hospital
pharmacy which other diploma programs will not promise ..
the very first day i entered the class ..
rushing assignments and lab reports..
having fun with friends in lab and outside of the school..
till now..
i am counting down for the days i can spend with all my buddies ='(
I still remember...
the very first class i entered was Organic Chemistry.. it was a laboratory class.. i came in late as i enrolled late and had to wait for the office to process my data and gave me my timetable.. Feeling quite uneasy and tense as there are so many rules to follow in the lab and our lecturer made me felt like a small mistake and i might burn the lab !!
* thats why i always remember the procedures of how to light a Bunsen Burner .. close air hole, ignite, open air hole..adjust *
However, a cool guy from Kenya, the very first person i talked to in class, who really ease my nervousness by keep talking nonsense with me XD * thanks a lot bro !! *
my first semester was a bit struggling as i need time to adapt myself back to study life after such a long break ~ but i am lucky as i met those lecturers who are really helpful.. we were having fun in Math class, especially when Ms. Anita pronounced 'm' becomes ( yan) and 'n' becomes ( nen)
*my batch mates.. u all known what we did right when we heard that * =p haha~

The semester i struggling the most was my semester 4, in which i took 6 'HEAVY' subjects and had to rush for 5 lab reports per week.. However, it was the semester i love the most as i learnt how to do striking on agar plate and cultured bacteria.. observed their varieties and grow pattern in Microbiology class ~
# E.Coli --Gram negative, rod shape bacteria that can be found in our low intestine
Learnt about what is pharmacokinetic , pharmacodynamic , ADME ( Adminintration, Distribution, Metabolism and Excretion) , Cholinergic drugs and drug interaction, side effects and so on in Basic Pharmacology ~
Try to examine blood glucose lavel , perform urine test in Biochemistry class..
Tonnes of identification tests, assays and reactions in Pharmaceutical Chemistry 1 ~~
* feel like burning the notes and drink them when i tried to squeeze the identification tests of anions and cations * ...
It was the toughest but most fruitful sem for me as i really learnt a lot from all the classes..
This semester, is the 6th semester of mine and also my last semester in the college as i will go for my hospital and community pharmacy training during my final sem * looking forward ^.^*
I enjoyed learning all the subjects as my lecturers really ' install' lots of knowledge and experiences into our ' Hard-disk' ~ * no more space le *
The most interesting subjects are Report Presentation , Pharmaceutical Technology and Pharmaceutical Chemistry class because of their interesting lab ~
Report presentation is like final project and presentation for other courses, we are given a topic and have to find out the ways of doing the particular experiments.. i will have to extract the Acetylsalicylic Acid from Aspirin and weight the amount extracted.. it was really FUN as i like laboratory works~ the most wonderful feeling is seeing the end product !! after so many times of trying and research about crystalization morphology , i finally got it in shiny crystal form through recrystallization method^^
* see the shiny crystals !! *
In pharm tech class, i got a chance to make my own tablets, capsules, creams and ointments !!
* just realized Angie hasn't upload the pictures while we did tablets ~ pictures pictures !! *
The lab that always full of excitement --> Pharm. Chemistry 1 & 2 ~~
# The most time consuming experiments ~ Preparing Picric Acid !! Evolving of Nitrogen Oxide which is toxic and the reaction is so aggressive @.@ remember to perform this experiment in Fume Chamber !!
Other than all the interesting labs and subjects.. the rest of my diploma life is made up by knowledgeable + helpful lecturers as well as the team- mates who struggle and have fun together =)

# with Ms. Grace and Friends in Pharmaceutical Chemistry lab
# with Ms. Uma ( who taught me Anatomy.. Basic Pharmacology and System Pharmacology ), Doris ( my funny coursemate) and Grace ( the most active coursemate) when we visited Putrajaya Hospital
Almost the end of my diploma year.. sincerely thanks to the lecturers ( Ms. Uma, Ms. Grace, Ms. Poon, Ms. Angeline, Ms Valice, Ms. Malar, Mr. Chan and etc.. ) who have been aided me in my pathway to be a pharmacist =) i will work hard, continuously .. hopefully, able to use the knowledge i gained from you to serve and help those who are in need in the future ^.^
