as mentioned in the previous entries, i was accepted by York's University for their BSc Psychology course, and yes, i'm admitted into IMU's MPharm too, and today, another offer came, Bachelor Dental Surgery course by AIMST.

just as what some of my friends predicted, i've turned down York's offer cause i 'finally' realised that counselling others, listening to a stranger expressing their dilemma, or prescribing tranquilizers is not something i wanted to do for the rest of my life. and most importantly, the wage for a bachelor degree in psychology in canada is not something to be bragged about. unless you attained your masters, else psychology is not somewhat a wise choice. in a nutshell, will just have to bid canada goodbye for the meantime.


York University

then there's IMU's offer which is very attractive. the 2+2 MPharm programme allows graduates to register as pharmacist in UK upon graduation without the need to return to malaysia which is a huge plus point as compared to their 2.5+1 programme. but accepting the offer would result me to rot for another 4-5 months before commencing studies in january next year. WAKAO! by then i will like the 'senior' among the freshmen. yer... don't like the fact. not good, not good.


IMU

AIMST sent me the offer letter today regarding admission into their dentistry programme which is what i wanted to do all this while. who doesn't know that a profession in dental field means good money, what more a dentist. tuition fees for this programme is equivalent to that for IMU MPharm. and as always, there's a drawback behind each and every offer, and for AIMST, it's the recognition. besides malaysia, graduates are not recognised to do their practise in any other countries (as in more developed ones). this is a huge issue for someone who is so not patriotic like me. the pro is AIMST has launced their whole new building with dental facilities and apparatus of world-class standards. man!!! their dental labs and in fact the whole dental faculty building truly sets a much higher benchmark for both private and government universities offering the same programme to keep in par with.


AIMST



given are the above choices, it's a future at stake. i've made my decision. i've made it.


don't you just love the digi (fat) man?

DIGI beats other mobile network operators hands-down on advertisment. i love them because they have the digiman with the largest possible belly in malaysia's advertisment history. and their digiman can do somersaults, the praying-mantis style of diving, single-hand weight lifting! unbelievable!! hhahahaha...










just giving myself more preferences

Posted by peiying Wednesday, August 6, 2008 0 comment

undeniably a few years back then, korean dramas are never my preference. those days i was still so into hk series like 'threshold of an era', 'war and beauty' and all those police, lawyers related series.

after watching princess hours for like 82037945 times, i began to notice a change in the plot development of korean dramas. credits to script writers eh. as compared to hongkong dramas, korean dramas of recent years are more refreshing. no doubt they have more scenic settings which plays vital role in attracting viewers, not to mention the fresh faces of korean celebrities which are practically the main enticement of most teenagers and oh bah sangs (middle-aged women).

but one thing i wanted to clarify, i still HATE taiwan dramas. STILL! i never took the initiative to comprehend why people would wanna watch an-ok-looking-but-acts like a wood-guy and a crying 24/7-slightly pretty-also act like a wood-girl acting in a 1000 episodes drama. it's exactly murdering film-strips i must say. the plot is bad, the actors and actresses are those of cannot make it, the settings are of jalan chow kit standard, and they have the worse dialogues in the chinese entertainment industry. WAHLAO! it's like n-number of years since taiwan started to produce dramas, and they have yet to (slightly) improve their plots.

i know korean dramas used to be like that too. those days when winter sonata is the cause of frenzy among teenagers whereby the leading actor and actresses are always separated by a 'hu li jing' and that when they get together, either one has third phase leukemia or kena accident. but hey, people DO improve ok? that's what i meant by versatility. no wonder why korean dramas could penetrate into and dominate the asian market in only a few years time. oh! and yes their OST definitely gets you in the mood. so good, so good!

suffice of criticisms and compliments, currently there are 3 korean dramas i would like to get hold of.


first is >> Surgeon Bong Dal Hee



i know Surgeon Bong Dal Hee is currently on air at 8tv, every monday to thursday 7pm, but since i've missed most of the episodes cause my mom wants to watch wong fei hong, so too bad. it caught my attention the first time i saw the advertistment since it's depicting the life of resident surgeons and they decipher various complicated medical terms in it. also, they have one of korea's most talented actor, lee bum soo (4th from right in poster) in it. OH!!!! must watch! must watch!



next up >> On Air



haven't watched it so can't make any comments. but i heard it's a good one since again they have lee bum soo and the long-time-no-see song yoon ah in it.


lastly >> Mawang



the main reason i wanna watch this is because i saw the poster below......




man! it's Joo Ji Hoon, prince Lee Shin in Princess Hours. oh my! never thought he possesed THIS charisma in princess hours. but here, he was so ...so... so... that thing, you know. i think it's charm. not handsome, but charm.

and the storyline is rather interesting too. Joo Ji Hoon plays the antagonist, he's a SERIAL KILLER! another must watch.


P/S: anyone knows where i could watch the full series of the above dramas online, please do let me know. and if you know of any more tantalizing hk or korean dramas, do let me know too. kamsahamnida!

(and and and i don't want those love story ones ar.. ahhaha... )
