Petition about Extra Practical Class in NNSMA

Well, recently I had heard enough for all the arguing and petition thingy running within my academy and hostel~~ Frankly speaking..headache about this!

Later today at 11am, we going to have an annual meeting among all the malaysians students in NNSMA (Nizhny Novgorod State Medical Academy). Actually it is kinda sad that we almost have an big issue every year. This year is all about the extra pratical class demanded by our deanary without our acknowledge.

So what's goin on here actually??
Let me start the story from the beginning....

Last year, out of sudden, we received news (after our lecture, in lecture hall) that those JPA students have to stay back for special issue..(os: why everytime have to be so unfair..JPA and Private??We are studying the same thing and we are going to graduate with the same degree!!)

Well, after that we found out that those JPA students have extra practical classes, and their JPA already paid for it..Thus, at that moment...of course appeared some private students who argued with dean and ask for the same treat.

Anyway, at that moment, dean already said to us that if we want the extra practical class, we need to pay 500usd...and that is why nobody make any noise after that and just swallow all the resentment into the stomach~~

..........

Then during this Summer holiday, of course we private students have to pay our tuition fees as usual. I called up Russian Resources and ask for the exact amount for all the fees..and the lady in the office told me..."oh, Moey Hui Xian har..6th years rite? well, your fees are..3500 tuition fees, 675 for hostel, 150 fo insurance, 500 for practical and u still owe us ur previous hostel fee.........(well the last part it doesnt matter..) and Wow!! She speak so fluently like nothing is weird happening here~! I immediately asked her "excuse me?? 500 for practical..in usd ar?? what is that har?"
"Ya, it is in usd, ur academy said is compulsory to pay" the lady answered.
I didn't blame her as I know she is just a clerk or something in the office~~

So here we are...the problems here is that:
1. The practical class just pop out without giving us any notice before...want to make our parents heart attack..
2. The practical class is so much more expensive compare to the normal class...I missed one normal class I paid 150rubs..and now I need to pay 30usd for extra practical class if i miss it..
3. Teachers who goin to teach us in the extra practical class and the one responsible for this (Lydia) don't even know that we pay for it~!
4. Without this, we already don't have enough time to sleep and study..(except those din study =.=")...and now we have to spend this extra 3 hours or even more (2 hours for the class and 1 hour for travelling) Just come to think about it...me myself as an example, my class finish at 1pm then lecture finish at 4pm sometimes 5pm. Then, the practical class from 5-7pm...back to hostel at 8pm...cook+bath (for me 1 and the half hour is enough)..so..9.30pm..then study(usually i use more than 4hours) so basically is up to 1.30am (as if i still have energy)...Izzit possible for a normal person like us??
But well okie, it is really hetic..but since it is not everyday..I can handle it..but then still have the first 3 problems above...

So, hopefully after today's annual meeting, we can get a response from dean office..and hopefully they still having their conscience...PLEASE TREAT US LIKE YOUR OWN CHILD~!

Girls' Best Friend

Tonite, let me discuss some real serious topic with you. It is a bit embrassing maybe (not to me of course, I mean other girls or guys), but it is really important topic which we have to pay attention to.

It is all about Girls' best friend who come visit every month...ermm some in few months interval..it depends---Menstruation.
I know la...many people studied in secondary school, I also studied it in secondary school mah..but end up I don't know anything arrr, but still I can write the answer out during exam..>.<" So..how much do you know??!!

So what is the Menstruation?
It is the process or an instance of discharging the menses.
(Hokkien people said "Lai Ang" means "red color come")

The mean duration of menstruation is 28 plus minus 7 days.
If a woman has menstrual cycles occur less than 21 days--we call it polymenorrhea
If a woman has menstrual cycles occur more than 35 days--we call it oligomenorrhea

The first menses for a girl named menarche while the stopping of menses of ah ma called menopause.


So..what is important of us..I think 3 main aspects which is the most important:
1) How to deal with the PMS (Pre-menstrual syndrome) problems?
This is very important not just for a girl herself..it is quite important for male friends and of course boyfriend.
There are 100 symptoms have been attributes to PMS..but the most common are:
- Abdominal bloating (quite obvious sign, a caring boyfriend should have notice that)
-Anxiety (don't make her worry anymore..she can't bear it at that moment)
- Breast tenderness (some girls really experience constant pain one..so boyfriend ar..control yourself on that period of time la..HMm hMm..)
- Crying spells (don't ever try to give me any tvb or taiwan series..I will cry 10x normal one)
- Depression (If she suddenly keep silence for a long time, talk to her or tell her a joke)
- Fatigue (She will sleep more than usual..u may call her pig..but in a cute way maybe..like..small cute little pig?? keke)
- Irritability (Don't buttock gatal cari pasal with her at that moment..whatever she said is right at that moment)
- Weight gain (due to hormonal reason, the girl will get fat..assume you didn't notice..don't say "U seems like getting fatter"..unless u want another anxiety,depression,crying and irritability)

Well, don't worry..I just maximize the symptoms in 10x only lah...These symptoms can exist in women with stable or unstable personalities. Don't blame them la..they can't help it also.

2) What things should a girl consider and take care for herself?
- Don't drink any cold drinks and better don't take cold shower (becoz it is believed that during menstruation, it is very easy to get ill due to low immunity, cold drinks and cold shower will increase the risk of infections)
- Don't use the sanitary pad which is stick very tightly with ur skin. Do let them have some air. Some girls scared that the menses will spill out..so they make it very tight, it will increase the risk of infection of your genital
- Change the pad in 2-3 hours time, becoz when the blood expose in the air for long time, it serve as a very good media for microorganism growth
- If it is too painful,don't resist on taking pain killer..if not u pengsan(pain shock) already pun nobody knows
- Eat more iron containing food to restore your red blood cells
- Don't eat too much irritating food such as spicy one, becoz during menstruation it will stimulate your bowel function, spicy food will worsen the condition


3)What can a boyfriend/male friend do for a girl during menstruation?
- Don't feel shame to help her buy the pads, she definitely will sayang you more and of course love you more
- Make her a cup of hot chocolate or milk, it definitely will warm her up and make her more comfortable
- Smoothly massage her abdomen..it might help to decrease the pain..and intense your relationship with her as well~~
- Most important..don't try to require sexual intercourse...it is not good for her..becoz it will increase infection risk and also increase the pain!!!

So...clear enuough?? Of course I invite you all share your ideas with me as well..

At last but not least, to my all girl friends, remember to consult gynaecologist at least once a year, and if you found out something wrong with your menstrual or your vagina..do consult gynaecologist too..don't feel shame..becoz it might be too late!!

你好吗?

如果有一天,你在路上和她/他擦肩而过,你会说些什么?
我或许什么都不会说,只会在心里默默地给与祝福,并在心里哼起这首歌~

主唱:李玖哲+周笔畅

温柔的时间
抚平我们的亏欠
过几天 过几年 伤会好一点
多久没见面

孩子气有没有变
还记得我们从前 笑的那么甜
Baby 我想起你

你有了他
是否依然为了爱 变的很傻
我想起你
你有一个他
好久都 没说的话
你好吗

温柔的缠绵
我也放下了依恋
过几天 过几年 伤会好一点
我收着照片

安静在盒子里面
回忆是你我剩下 唯一的关联
