Memo# 26 : Why is the Rum Gone?

I got my butt out of bed at 7am this morning. Hardly a normal thing to do for a nocturnal person like me to do considering I wake up at noon everyday since I came to KL.

Such an important matter would not be taken as a triviality. My recalcitrance with my sleeping habits must change.......
........................in College.


The main reason for the disturbance in my sleep pattern is due to my long awaited visit to Malaysia's oldest University: University Malaya.

I had been planning to visit the Law Faculty ever since I planned my trip to KL earlier this month. Part of my reason for coming here was to see the University and view the possible options to enter Law stream to fulfill my destiny.

Left around 9 o'clock because knowing government servants, they punch in at 8.30am and go off to drink coffee at 9.30am until 1 hour before work ends to punch out.
I thought it would be filled with students when i reached there, but it seems they are having a holiday for all i saw was empty corridors and vacant parking lots. The campus itself is vast and surrounded by hills and trees.

Went to the office on the first floor to ask some questions. The staff there were helpful and provided relevant information. I found some out not-so-hopeful things about the entry requirements into U.M. Law

Entry Requirements
  • STPM - 2 Principles
  • Diploma


I'm screwed!!! They don't accept the Centralized Matriculation Program
nor
Asasi Sains(Foundation in Life/Physical Science) UM
nor
Asasi Undang-undang(Foundation in Law) UiTM

It's either waste 4 semester(2years) in STPM or 3 years taking a Diploma course.

Well at least I know U.M Law doesn't take in lousy less qualified students from matriculation because everyone knows the quality of matriculation students are not on par with students from STPM



After that, drove around campus checking out the other faculties in the vicinity. The Law Faculty is newer compared to the others like Architecture or Engineering Faculty.
Rumour has it that there used to be a floating pub at the centre of the lake(yes..there's a lake on campus) previously before the nation became zealous.

Later I went to see the Campus Asasi Sains a few minutes drive away. It looked really sucky and resembles a typical national middle school with low ceilings and a weird smell.
Asked the lady at the office about the Official Release Date for the UPU(Unit Pusat University) Results (Tarikh pengumuman Keputusan UPU 2007)

The clerk said it will be out on the 5th Of May (next saturday) online through their websites.
So those still expecting to get into local university can check it out their website at http://www.mohe.gov.my or http://www.jpt.uum.edu.my/
or SMS UPU<>IC Number(no"-") and send to 32300

Took a picture of the lecture hall. The KL bus goes through the campus so getting in and out is simple. It is located near the heartland of the city so it isn't really a question on where to go but what to do.
On the way to the car park, I saw this old looking Mitsubishi sportscar..
I was thinking.. "Hmm..I've never seen this model before"


Come on guys..look at it
From the front it actually looks decent. The bonnet together with the bumper in front and square lights that actually look like a bona fide Mitsubishi

So I took a step to see what it was called and to my surprise..
..
..
..
..
This!!!Ahahahahaha..it was a zhng-ed Proton Wira
From the front it looks real!!
I kid you not..it's the same car..not 2 different pictures..good work though!
XD *Zhng my Wira*



By that time I was starting to get to get hungry so we left UM and went to Bangsar Village first to shop for some groceries for dinner.


At the entrance, one shop selling funny t-shirts caught my attention.
It was a bit pricey though,for a white shirt with funny designs but probably only ironed on costs around RM30 per shirt.
The funniest one I saw was with the AM Bank group on it:

I didn't dare take a picture for fear of retaliation by the shop owner..so I made a replica
All I have with me is Microsoft Paint ....so don't mock me!!

After getting the groceries, went to Bangsar 雲南咖啡店 Yun Nan Coffee Shop to try the famous Hong Kong Fish Paste with vermicelli (mee hun)
The fish balls there are made from real fish without much of starch that modern machine processed fishballs taste like. For only RM3.50 a bowl, it's very tasty.

I ordered Wantan Mee cos' I didn't feel like eating soup. I still think Kuching Kolo Mee is the best. KL Wantan Mee uses too much kicap so it's thick and salty. The Kuching variety uses sesame oil and tastes lighter than it's KL counterpart. I think I'll go back to the place I went in Sentul to re-review the Konlo Pan Mee I went to on Thursday because it was nice and I like the dimsum there though KK still IS the best
On the way out, a trailer was blocking our car.
Someone's BMW was smashed on the front bumper.. hangkang such an expensive car.



I will be going U.K.M next week to ask around about the Law Course's requirements.
If not then I'll just do an external degree.

p/s:Wonder who would win the Ijok seat..my vote is on *************
