Puhghotozowa

Bonjour~ hey therrrre people.

I'm feeling quite happy today. which might explain my sudden urghge to wghrite about my day. what's up with my poor spelling
? actually i'm trying to make the words sound a bit french-y..why? well today i had a lecture on parasites (which should be read as- paghazite) and somehow I got influenced. and yeah, the lecturer was french. cool right? she managed to keep me awake throughout the one hour lecture (which doesn't happen so often i might add).
All thanks to her accent.
paghamezium..puhghotozowa..plasmodium falcipaghum eghithgrhocytes..

Saying the words with a french tongue makes them sound so much more interesting. and of course, she's an excellent lecturer. very funny one too.

She certainly adds to my list of foreign lecturers. There's a Russian lecturer teaching Physiology, a Danish lecturer teaching ethics, an Indian lecturer teaching Immunology, and an Italian teaching Anatomy. I adore each and every one of them. Their ability to articulate themselves perfectly despite their accent just strikes me. Somehow it gives me my inspiration to keep on going in this alienating place.

Sometimes I feel that nobody really understands what I'm trying to say here, might as well just keep quiet. Well, that was before, now I know that I'm never going to do myself any good if I just keep it all to myself. I'm not going to lie and say it's easy to survive in a foreign land, but it also couldn't be an excuse for me not to excel in my studies. I guess the challenges that you face is what makes you different from the rest. How you're able to get through them are the true lessons in life.
and in the end, when you're finally crossing the finish line (insyaAllah), there's no substitution for what you've accomplished. and when you're able to succeed in the toughest condition..hoyeah, that certainly demands respect (or maybe just self satisfaction would do). *wink
you won't really appreciate the sweetness of honey until you get stung by the bees guarding them.
i made up a terrible analogy but i guess it does convey the meaning somehow (probably not to the extent of getting stung).

By the way, my sis usrah just got admitted into hospital because of infection. Let's all pray for her well being (Amin..) and hopefully she'll get better in no time insyaAllah. She's really such a nice person and it's sad to see her lying debilitated on the bed. hope she'll get through this life's test soon.
