Pagi-Pagi Dah Naik Darah

Ahad. Pantri conform tak berair.

Isnin. Pantri blok lain dah berair. Tandas di sini dah kering.

Selasa. Orang lain senang nak mandi, buang air, basuh baju. Ya, pagi-pagi saat panggilan alam datang secara tiba-tiba sungguh menyesakkan dada. Sini? Pagi-pagi gendong baldi ke blok lain.

Rabu. Orang lain masih bersenang-lenang. Sini? Masih macam semalam. Mungkin pantri dah berair. Tapi tandas masih kering.

Khamis. Nikmat air dapat dirasai akhirnya.

Jumaat. Macam semalam. Aktiviti membasuh baju mula giat.

Sabtu. Seperti semalam juga.

Ahad. Pantri dah tak berair.

Aku tak kesal ada di sini. Tapi penghuni di sini seperti didikriminasikan. Apa kami ni bukan manusiakah?

Cara berjimat anda sangat memudahkan kami dan sangat terpuji.

First Week of The New Semester is About WATER!!

Aku terjaga jam 1.20 pagi. Ke pantri, nak basuh muka. Air tak ada. Apakah?? Teringat baju yang perlu dibasuh; satu baldi dan separuh uncang laundry. Oh, tidak!!!

Kemudian ke bilik air, manalah tahu ada sisa-sisa air lagi. Pun tak ada. Aku mula rasa tak seronok. Nak merantau ke blok lain pagi-pagi buta ni bukan satu opsyen yang baik. Tapi bila pundi kencing pun terasa nyilu, maka dengan pesanan pada mata supaya jangan melilau sangat nanti, maka kuatkan azam merentas belakang blok yang agak sunyi dan gelap tu.

Masuk saja blok sebelah, gelap! Mereka ni tutup lampu koridor tu buat apa. Buat sesak dada saja sesiapa yang nak ke tandas pagi-pagi buta begini. Tapi air masih banyak lagi. Selesai qada' hajat, aku balik semula ke bilik.

Sedang asyik berfikir tentang baju yang perlu dibasuh, sama ada nak basuh tangan (banyak sangat kan, tak terbasuh dek tangan) ataupun nak bawa balik, perut mula memulas. Aku tengok jam, dah jam 2. Orang pun mesti dah tidur lena dan tak ada sesiapa pun yang berjaga. Oh, tidak! Kenapakah aku disiksa sebegini.

Hari pertama di sini, air dah mula tak ada. Sempat sampai Isnin saja. Kemudian air dah kering, sampailah semalam baru mula ada. Hari ni dah tak ada semula. Kami bayar ya untuk tinggal di sini. Jadi berilah kemudahan yang sepatutnya. Bila jadi macam ni, keinginan nak duduk di luar semacam berkobar-kobar.

Stress!!

Study!!!!

Mula-mula aku nak mengomel tentang air yang tak ada. Please-lah! Lagi 2 -3 hari saja lagi nak balik. Lepas kami semua dah balik, barulah tak payah ada air. Menyedihkan sungguh. Tapi semalam aku dengar perbualan seorang pakcik, katanya tahun ni memang ada masalah air. Sebelum ni memanglah air tak ada, tapi dalam setahun mungkin sekali dua saja. Tapi sekarang ni selalu sangat.

Entahlah pakcik.

Kemudian nak mengomel tentang packing. Ohhhh, sungguhlah malas dan berserabut rasa. Ramai yang pelik aku bawa semua barang balik dan tak tinggalkan langsung walaupun satu barang dalam bilik stor. Well, sebenarnya tak biasa tinggal-tinggal barang dan risau kalau semua tak ada depan mata. Nak tinggalkan pakaian, no way!! Buku-buku ada sikit saja, dan next semester dah guna buku lain, jadi buat apa nak tinggal sini. Bantal, selimut, aku guna. File semua aku nak siapkan cuti semester ni dan tinggal saja semua di rumah. So, basically memang semua aku bawa balik.

Air Minum

Okay, to those who know me, I always bring a big bottle of drinking water almost to anywhere. When I'm going to class, outing or balik kampung, I will always bring water at least in 1 liter bottle. And recently, I got myself a big bottle of 2 liter, and that is the stock of my drinking water.

So, what is about that? I actually don't like bring lots of things when I went out. In my past, I usually bring only my handphone, house key and wallet, which I put in my jeans pocket.
I always see Chinese brings big bottle of drinking water to class. And I thought, that is good. Because drinking a lot of plain water is good for health, also to prevent us from being sleepy.

I'm drinking lots of water because of health. I always got bad urine result in all my medical check up because I drink less. And for avoiding being sleepy in class, I'm not practising that.

I am known as someone who sleeps a lot. That has been for years, since I was in school. I was known as sleeping beauty (not really a beauty, that's just name) in school. And I used to not to go to class because of my sleeping problem. And I still have that problem until now. But I do try hard not to sleep when there is a teaching and learning process in class, but I will sleep if there's none. I sleep in each assembly, and almost in all talks, almost each evening and of course at night. But I have difficulties in sleeping at night even I don't have enough sleep.

Enough of that. Continuing about the drinking water. One of my friends told me that mineral water that we buy actually is more harmful that tap water. Mind you that in UK, we can obtain drinking water just from tap water, ie the water need not to be boiled but is drank right away from the tap. So, why is mineral water harmful? Because it contains minerals, and the minerals react with the inner surface of the water, which is plastic. So, we have extra 'minerals' in mineral water; plastic particles, or maybe components of it.

Now, I drink filtered water, and sometimes mineral water. Tap water in here, I think is not really clean, compared to the filtered one. Actually, the drinking water in my house is from filtered water directly from the tap. And I think it is good for me. I never have diarrhea due to drinking water; it usually is from food. And I sleep less, even that is not the main point of me drinking lots of water.

Is 2 liter is enough for the daily recommendation? Let see, each day we need to drink at least 8 glasses of water. Let us say that a glass of water consists of 300ml, so 8 glasses will be 2400ml which is equal to 2.4 liter. No! It still is not enough. So, let us think back of what we drink each day. How much of sugary drink, and how much of plain water?

Water is necessary to ensure that our body function is in good condition. It got something to do with the electrolytes in the body; well, I already forgot what's the function. But everyone knows that water is good for our health. We need not to just dieting all day long, eating less fat and carbohydrate, but we also need to drink lots of water. By dieting, we actually cutting supply of energy to our body, and our body need to be refreshed. Kesian la kat badan tu..

Okay, actually I need to finish up my burger because I am very very sleepy at the moment and it is already 2.20 AM. Ini namanya makan tengah malam, and I am disappoint as even how much I eat and how late, I still got this body with maintain weight of 40 kg. I'm underweight. And that is not good, and I got heart problem, and of course easily tired. I think that I have weird metabolism. For example, yesterday evening when I was in library, I was sweating even the library's aircond was really strong macam transition from spring to summer. Well, maybe macam summer yang paling sejuk la.

Dah habis makan!! Jom tido.....

I'm Pissed Off, Again.

Rasa serabut dan nak marah. Why, everything must be told last minute?

Oh please-lah. Gua dah serabut dengan air yang tak ada even nak kencing pun kena angkat air and bawa ke toilet, for weeks!! Last week air ada di tandas just for less than half a day! And this week tak ada air langsung. Really, I can't consider living like this. And last week I was on my period. And that was like hell angkat air sampai bertong-tong to wash the pad, at least twice a day. And it really pissed me off lalu depan rumah warden dan dengar mesin basuh tengah spin whereas we in here, in the same block got no water harap je ada mesin basuh.

I don't know why we have to face something like this. Plus with the last minute assignmentS, dengan silibus yang tak habis lagi dan the coming exam, tak hairan sampai ada orang histeria atau depression but I JUST HOPE NOBODY WILL KILL HIM(HER)SELF.

You know, great universities overseas don't really have this kind of workloads especially the last minute ones, and they produce much higher level skilled graduates. And we in here, with so much 'kerenah' and too schematic; how can we conclude about the quality of the graduates and set aside the amount of them? And just how much our graduates being unemployed or unskilled?

Really, I just hope I just graduated and never ever faced these nonsenses!

Air

Kecik tanya aku semalam, masa aku tengah lipat baju banyak-banyak dan sumbat dalam beg, 'Kenapa Along bawa baju basuh kat rumah?'

Aku jawab dengan penuh perasaan, 'Sebab, kat maktab tu air baaaaaaaaanyak sangat sampai tak terbasuh baju.'

Kemudian dia senyap berfikir, kemudian dia sambung, 'ooooo...air tak ada.'











Agak-agaknya sampai aku grad nanti, berapa banyak entri berkenaan air yang akan aku post di sini?
