Holidaysss Peeps !

How time flies so fast that I actually just realized my last entry was on November last year.
And now it is already August 2017 and 4 months away from 2018. WOW !

So glad that this year I could appreciate and enjoy my not so long semester break. I didn't plan anything for this break (besides the fact that I'm broke) except food hunting (with whoever is available) and trying out cafes around Malacca and KL (MY). I randomly love going to check out some cool and nice yet eye-catching cafes, taking photos of weird, modern, antique and vintage of the cafes.

Somehow it triggered me ( I meant my creativity in thinking which I could apply in my daily life).
Like I already said I'm broke, which lead me into decision of doing some business :P
Yeah, but something that I like doing and produce a good 'something' and people won't regret buying.
Sooooo I've been thinking to sell a double chocolate chip cookies (yeah definitely during semester break only, cause I'm super duper busy and tired when new semester starts).

Tak tipu my cookies is so YUMMEH. I actually bake once and brought it to college and my friend tried and they loved it!! They asked me to sell it. Hmmm... *me thinking

Okay back to my topic (HOLIDAYS)
At home I didn't do much.. Just something that girls would usually do likeee
wake up, shower, cooking for the family, watching videos on youtube, and yeah sleep at night.
SO SO BORING *BLURGH
We (me and mom and my sister have this habit of watching hindustan movie at night, and it become an obligation *new habit tho)

I also still learning on how to decorate HANTARAN. Plus, it is my cousin's. Which will be held this late August.
Will upload the pictures sooon. Well it's a great experience. Normally, I'm the one who will picked up the flower for any of the hantaran's flowers and now I'm the one who did it *of course with mom's help.

So, here are the pictures taken (not really a quality photos)
And I know some of you have tried it but yeah just don't bother ;p
I'll include the name of the place and also the feedback about it

People who loves to eat korean food is recommended to try this place
Tis' KYOCHON 1991 in Sunway Pyramid. They are not only in Sunway, but in other places as well.
The food are thumbs up!

So this is a chinese restaurant but Halal called JONKER 88 at Jonker Street, Malacca.
They have various Chendol and Laksa. So sedap!

This is the only picture I have. Forgot to save it haha
This one is Chicken Rice Ball EE JI BAN (Chinese Restaurant but Halal), in Malacca.
Seriously so damn delicious..

Next is THE DAILY FIX CAFE in Jonker Walk, Malacca
They have so many desserts, toasts, cakes, pancakes, coffee, smoothies and many more!
So so recommended..







4FINGERS at Mid Valley
I like them moreee than kyochon since it's more crispy and not that spicy

So the final one is the JUSTBERRY DESSERT HOUSE AYER KEROH, Malacca

So and try it out guys!!

Thanks for reading <3<3<3

International Dental Physiology Quiz 2016 ( iDPQ )

Hi guys! It's been a while since my last entry. And December is approaching us which mean that 2016 are about to end. When I come to think about it, a lot of things had happened in 2016 (sweet and sour experiences and moments of course). Besides, too much things to be grateful and took the lessons of. From day to day it makes me become a stronger person.

Last 26th November 2016 at the University of Malaya, Malaysia
I entered this programme called iDPQ organised by Persatuan Pergigian Universiti Malaya (DENSOC) in corporation with Malaysian Dental Students' Association (MDSA) and department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, University Malaya.

Many participating team from different university from Asia were also joining in this programme such as

Aimst University
International Islamic University Malaysia
International Medical University
Khon Kaen University (Thailand)
Lincoln University College
MAHSA University
Melaka-Manipal Medical College
SEGi University
Universiti Teknologi MARA
Universitas Gadjah Mada (Indonesia)
Universitas Indonesia (Indonesia)
Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia
University of Dental Medicine, Yangon (Myanmar)
Universiti Sains Malaysia
Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia
University of Malaya

It's an oral competition before a live audience. 4 teams will be paired to compete in each Quiz session. And 3 students in each team go on stage in each session. The Quiz master will field the questions to individual student in each team. If the students fail to answer or answer incorrectly, the team can discuss for a second response.

If the team still does not give the correct answer, the question is available to the opponent team to respond. Marks of 3,2,1 will be scored for that three responses.

I'm proud to represent my university but disappointed at the same time as we're not capable to be selected for 2nd round. Tho we had struggled almost every night with study group and discussion with the lecturers but it's just not our luck or probably we're just not good or prepared enough to be competing with them.

However I can see the consequences of the Quiz. At least I had covered part of the subject, for the PRo Exam. Thanks to GOD for such a perfect planning. Alhamdullilah...

Plus my supportive classmates that were there since morning till the end. You guys are so awesome

Rubber Dam Placement

Hi guys !
Now it's 0233 in the morning and i'm still wide awake as I should be studying right now but somehow wanted to update a new entry.
A lot of people has been asking me about the RA and braces lately
Might be my writing was terrible that they got into confusion. hahaha I should've improves myself in writing tho
So to those who has question feel free to just drop a message on my Instagram or Tweeter.

Alright as tonight.. opss as for this morning I would like to share my experienced in placing a RUBBER DAM !!!

You must be wondering what is that THINGY ???

Well rubber dam is the standard procedure for moisture control (regulate the fluids like blood/saliva/water within mouth and individual teeth being operated on) when the dentists are going to do a restoration/filling (tampalan gigi) on patients.

Most people will get scared when they saw this weird thing but don't worry becauseee
the reasons for applying this procedure is to make sure the patient's safety during the treatment, infection control and etc.

Yeah it was freaking tired to get this thing done but maybe it was my FIRST TIME so never mind. I'll get expert as time goes by..
cause we usually do this rubber dam placement on the dummy which is without the saliva so it easier than in the real humans that the fluids kept on flowing out.

We had to do this on each partner before we do it on our patients. YEAH GREAT ! But don't get it wrong because in certain dental clinic they don't practice this *Government clinic. But it is still okay without it to do the treatment.

These are the Rubber Dam equipments

My colleague got herself local anaesthesia (LA) by the specialist before we start with the procedures
*She wasn't felt any pain as the doc was very skillful in giving the LA

Why am I so focus?? Hahaha It was just a demonstration by the Doc

Nahhh now it's the time for us to do it on our own

Everything turned out well and now we are capable to do it on Patients.
Fuhh I think I'll just have my sahur and straight go to bed.

RAMADAN KAREEM GUYS !!

Braces ON !

Sorry for the selfie, I should have taken better picture than this

People keep questioning me why would I wear braces? As you all know that I'm under RA treatment before. But yeah me myself don't know why either. But the specialist has told me to wear braces anyway other than RA (maybe I'm simply not ready). There was one time on Friday, without thinking twice I made a step into Orthodontics department in my faculty to meet postgraduate student and booked for an appointment. Not longer than that, the Dr called me to attend and met her for first procedure. Taking impressions, pictures of my face structure *not sure if i'm using the right words, and the most painful part WAS she put a separator in between of my premolar upper and lower teeth. It killing me like @$$Y%&Y(*^ urghh so sakit. I couldn't have a proper meal for 2 weeks I guess. (but the best part is I can control my diet)

I got a text for the Dr saying about the second appointment! Gosh I was freaking HAAPPYY!! of course she's going to take off the separator out of my mouth, couldn't take it any longer I told ya. Anddddd I thought its going to over but then I'm totally wrong. She put on a MOLAR BAND (something to retain my gigi geraham from moving) replacing the separator. The molar band aren't giving any pain or something but it has this site which sharp that it tears my cheeks 'BOTH SIDES' and it turned into ulcers. Can you imagine the torments??

Okayy that's not the only torment, there are a lot! Next, the Dr gave me a referral letter to extract my teeth which includes 2 from the upper and 2 from the lower tooth (total of 4). Omaigad, another challenge experience I've to face before I do it to my patients next semester (year 3). 8 to 10 shots of LA (local anesthesia) to numb the muscles and let the sense of pain go away. Its ain't easy man. The funny part was I asked my senior to put a topical anesthesia (ubat kebas sapu) before the LA *cannot tahan takut. but then it doesn't numb anyway cause I can still feels the shots anyway and tahan until tears drained. DANG two teeth GONE ! on the first week. I was living my life toothless like 3 weeks before another 2 extractions (sokay I looked cute liddat). hahaha

Done with extractions, coming with the third appointment which is today BRACES ON DAY!!
I'm not excited AT ALL !!! Trust me. I'm afraid of the fact that I'm going to have a lot of ulcers coming through. Ohh nooo not funneh okayy!
So the Dr gave me 2 small box of wax just in case for me to put it at the brackets. so yeah I slept with it and woke up feeling bulky inside my mouth. maybe I didn't get used to it yet. Sooooon I will.
The pain? yesss ADA.

I guess another at least 2 weeks of diet won't hurt?


Ignore my after class face

p/s : pray for my upcoming denture design competency this Thursday!

Abrupt Short Break

Just got back from KL and now I'm in Sungai Buloh. Fuhh! Such a tiring weekend yet exciting and full of adventures I can tell you. Yes, I got stranded here in campus again so me and Aida SUDDENLY came with this crazy lil' idea. On friday around 7.35 pm , we were just sitting in the dining having dinner while talking about Nina's sister wedding on Saturday. We don't have any transport to go there but thought to just rent a car from our senior. *popped out a text from Syaida sayin'

Syai : *Grummpy face emoticon Hmmm Dianaaa dental masuk battle of the band tonight!!! Bestnyaaa

Me : Please come back here and we go watch them?

Syai : Noooooooooo

Me : what?? Lets go pleasee

Syai : I bet only guys will go there

Me : Alright Syaida. Up to you la

The day before syai already invited us to sleep over at her house but we refused *takut susahkan parents dia

Syai : tula ajak balik rumah kita tanak, kalau tak boleh pergi. Korang datang la naik ktm

She kept on persuading us and how excited she became that she texted Syafeq. Asked him to drop us at ktm and she'll fetch us at Kl Sentral. But the thing is, Syafeq said he'll take us at 8 freaking p.m. whuuttt? we're totally not readyy
*lipas kudung go and packed our bag

but we were just worried that we might not reach there on time cause the event starts at 9pm in Uitm Shah Alam and we were in 'KL' jammed everywhere and it already 8.30pm. but we still stick with the plan. I was whatsapped her every station so that she won't late.

After she picked us up. We straight went to Shah Alam and texted and called our friends to update about the performances. Fuhh luckily we arrived at 9.40pm and didn't missed wonderlust drillers performance.

we were sooooo excited shouting. And I lost my voice. But it was awesome anyway nvm. They were superrr cool and talented. not only dental but all of them. It was my first time tho , well great experience but somehow it didn't suit me. but its okay . We go back around 12.05 in the morning but decided to drop by at Syed (mamaks) to have a glass of teh ais and roti BOOM. I just can't open my eyes, damn tired. How I cannot be that, we had 'Team Building' from as early morning till noon and continue with 'Selangkah ke Pro' from 2pm until almost 5pm. I didn't get any rest and boom now I'm in KL?!!!

We didn't plan to go anywhere except home but syaida was not focus and she keep driving in the wrong road and we're lost somewhere but near to KLCC. We strollin' around

Tho KLCC is something familiar to me but it still caught my eyes. too beautiful during the night

got home and straight to the bedroom and get ourselves ready to go to bed.
Damn I forgot to bring my toothbrush and face cleanser. HOW I AM GOING TO LIVE MY LIFE ??!!
that's why I don't prefer sudden plan like this cause I'm gonna recklessly leave something behind
......and we slept at 3am

woke up at 6.15am to perform our prayer and get back to sleep cause we were soo exhausted.
woke up again at 9am and ready for breakfast.

Good Morning from KL yaww

We went to the restaurant to have breakfast and guardian to buy my freaking TOOTHBRUSH
Please I can't let myself go to the weds without brushing my teeth. Sooo gross

WE ARE READY FOR THE WEDDINGGGGG

I was besides the driver which I'm supposed to help Syaida with the waze but ending up we're messed up and I'm giving up and let Aida conduct it. hahaha

Safely arrived back at the College!
Well that's all my weekend in short story...

Funny Random Facts About Oral Surgeon

-14th March 2016-

Okay let me just start with some 'HOORAYY' ! yeah finally finished with my clinical semester exam !?!?
Oh God .. I justtt urghh too happy and updating this new entry in my own room (homed)

I can say today as the happiest day tho it also was my last exam paper (Oral and Maxillofacial) which I'm not pretty sure about the heck my answers were. Sorry but the questions are so insane and I couldn't resist.
Picture above is my very first attempt in suturing *please don't judge. hahaha
I knoww right, so messy...

Fyi, as the study week just started last week on Saturday I just don't know which one to start with but decided on Oral Surgery (OS). I'm too eager that I gone through all the THOSE THICK 'BOOKS' ! and make it into not so simple or cute notes. I don't think I would do that in any other subjects... I just don't. If I ever did that, sure I'm forcing myself to do so. Most of the students loved OS but when it comes to test,
it going to be the scariest one! because the questions are so horrifying.

So this time I would love to share my opinions about oral surgeon.. I don't know where this idea came from but I guess it's because I just adore them. I've always imagine this is me in the future.
I don't mind of how long it takes for me to be there, I'm going to work for it! My parents is 100% supporting in whatever I wanna be but they just think that being an oral surgeon will take my normal everyday life especially when I got married and have a family.

I don't know, I didn't find myself in any other subject. I meant I can do Endodontics, Prosthodontics, Restorative,
Periodontolgy and etc but I'm not interested in it. Like my roommate, she imagine herself as a restorative dentist in future *probably she's enjoying memorizing dental materials I guess? hahaha

Alright lets get back to our topic, shall we?

Btw this is just for fun and at least this is what I randomly see about them personally
and doesn't mean you're going to have the same viewpoint as me :P So here you gooo ...

First

They mostly are COOL like an ice!

Becausee just like Dr. S , he's a basketball player tho. When we were in Shah Alam almost every evening I met him at the bball court playing with the popular yet skillful UiTM bball players. And they just called him S without the tittle Dr tho he's an oral surgeon and people knew that. He don't bother with that *so humble
p/s : He always thought I'm 3rd year student cause I usually mingle with them at the court
eventho I wish I could actually grad early

Besides Dr. R, he can really sing tho not that superb but yeah he's cool enough to actually be on stage and sing for us!? * It's an english song but I can't remember the song's tittle


Second

They used Weird words

One fine morning, this Dr. R was about to collect sheets from the students and asking us " Is everybody got your attendance slip?" and all of us said yes. "Is there any excess?" he continued. We were like "????" and straight laughing loudly. The word he's using was 'EXCESS' instead of 'EXTRA' . Not that we were trying to make fun of him but it was way too funny guys.

And Dr. A, I love listening to her lecture. The way she deliver her words are so fluent, attractive or appealing (hahaha what kind of word is that?!)


Third

Frivolous(not serious) but strict and particular

Before we started our OS paper, they came so early to actually get ready distributing all the exam paper but the students is not there yet. *yeah it was 50 minutes before the exam?!
but there are couples of students that already there and asked them to Whatsapp us to come early. They wanted to start the exam at 8.45am when the exam should start at 9 ? haha of course its not gonna happen.

While waiting for us to come , Dr H just talking and crapping around *in a sarcastic way and funny way sometimes

In other hands, Dr N was strolling around and cracking jokes with us. The strange thing was, we're going to take exam and yeah yet still trying to make fun and laughing around.


Well all those random facts are not all applied to all oral surgeon. That was only my silly thought on how cool the oral surgeon is because I wanna be like them one day. It just from the outside but from the inside they maybe a different person that I will never know. Cehhh
Life is too short to not do things that you love. Because "love gives you a crazy kind of brave".

* I would like to attach a video of me suturing but I don't have youtube account, sorry
should I make one? Hmmm

Overwhelmed

As the title written up there, yeah guys i'm in study week right now which doesn't seem like one.
Well that 'DENTISTRY' is all about
It is Clinical Semester Exam guyss
Not trying to jinx or something but I chose this way then I've to deal with it. Ain't got any other way man.
This week and the next two weeks are going to be the most hell of the weeks.. Simulation Lab during study week doesn't sound so good guys
Just got no idea how to face it but I just got to. Wake up not so early every morning to actually find free time to study and getting ready at 11.00am with scrub to go to prosthetic lab and get my teeth model cast fixed before we start with the simlab from 12.30pm right until 4.15pm. Balik already barai
It's happening now and for the whole week except today which is the day i'm most looking forward to (6th Dental Students' Symposium) because its a bit not so tight with works (leisure day at least for me)and to support my seniors of course. It was aforethought actually where i'm looking for a reason of not studying *for god sake what is wrong with you Dianaaa , exam is NEXT WEEK !
Please wake upppp
*Oh awesome videos and great presentation btw guys haha

Got back from the event sharp at 6pm from 8.30 am in the morning. And i'm all tired already. Slept and now i just woke up and write a new entry about my sick life??! So not productive where I should be studying now but wasting my time here instead and I'm aware of that.
I am very sure that I am not sure what to answer next week. *purposely made the sentence complicated :P
Too many to read and memorize especially oral pathology subject
and unfortunately my memory card cracked a bit at the moment that affect the capacity and had decreased up to 60% *so tipu
Huwaaaa but the thing is after the exam week, we're going to be stranded here for another week for simlab which it supposedly be our freaking only week mid semester break!!! *basically there's no holidays laa

I had planned to get my work done super early so that I don't have to stay here during the break but I don't think I could cause it a lottt.
I should start REDHA now laa I guess :'( so that when the time has finally come, it wouldn't broke my heart into thousand pieces, should I?

Tomorrow got simlab and I'm soo IN LOVE...
Last session, I got all excited.. ya know with already fixed teeth model and ready to finish preclinical project (4 projects left for restorative and many more for fixed prostho) and read book about the project the night before...
to sum up, I've got to REDO two project which I failed in making the tooth preparation. *so clumsy
It should be okay I supposed but 'bad luck day' I guess. hahaha *alasan again

Not again tomorrow pleasee... Please be a lucky day. Tak larat dah, I wanna go home
#prayfordiana #please #sheisnazakcutinow

p/s : thanks for lending me your precious time reading this
