What did I do today?

I did write another 250 words today. Many praise to Allah for giving me ideas and wills to write for today. I need to write more so that I can show it to my beloved SV. Speaking of him, I hadn't meet him yet this week. And, he also didn't ask me anything until to this end of day. Should I be relieved or should I not??







Up there, a picture to show how happy am I not to have a meeting with SV...


haiyaaa... ini olang manyak tilok, kije talak siap, itu pasal manyak happy talak jumpa sama itu SV   -__-!!

A sentence a day keeps Mr. Procrastination away!

Yes, yes and yes that I agree to the title hanging so-clearly up there. Yesterday, I had really make a firm-and-so-cool move to at least write a 300 words. That's ok what? (manglish...hehe) for a beginner. Today, I targeted myself for at least the same amount of words. I wish to target higher for 1000 words a day as advised by Rowena Murray but well of course, I'm trying to be realistic to myself. The thing that I most deplore in my attitude is procrastination and last minute work. But sometimes I do enjoy having datelines. Nothing takes the fun out of something you're passionate about as much as dateline!! PhD is going to be tough journey but that's the road you have taken.

I have some things to take care of;
1 - buy bus ticket to heathrow
2 - e-mail Dr Tee E Siong
3 - prepare slides for conference
4 - ask for travel advise from friend from brazil, from airport to hotel, and Brazil's simcard
5 - prepare abstract for faculty conference
.

and the list goes on. But the one listed urgently need to be done in this one week! fainted already @_@


Bye guys.

Entri menarik sebelum solat

Alhamdulillah sudah genap 15 bulan saya di bumi UK ini. Pelbagai perkara menarik, kurang menarik, pahit, manis, selama berada di sini dalam tempoh pengajian menyiapkan disertesi PhD saya. Saya sebenarnya kadang kadang atau lebih tepat lagi merasakan bahawa betapa kerdilnya saya untuk berdiri bersama mereka mereka yang hebat dalam proses pengajian PhD saya ini. Kadang kadang saya hilang arah dalam kajian saya sendiri ibarat kapal kehilangan arah punca angin yang mana boleh mendatangkan musibah kepada para pelayar. Kajian saya kini masih dalam proses merangkak rangkak. Kajian yang kini saya lakukan adalah untuk mereka bentuk atau membangunkan satu dietary guideline dari apa yang sedia ada. Nampak mudah bukan?

Mengapa saya ingin bangunkan benda yang sudah sedia ada? Ini kerana, dietary guideline yang sedia ada tidak menampakkan kesan secara signifikan pada tahap kesihatan keseluruhan populasi di Malaysia malah terdapat beberapa penyakit berkaitan diet meningkat dengan tingginya, iaitu, obesiti, diabetes, darah tinggi dan sebagainya. Tak caya tgk saya. Saya tahu makanan sihat, tp nape berat saya tetap meningkat?? peningss...

Oleh itu, peringkat pertama dalam kajian saya adalah menggunakan baseline data untuk membentuk model baru dan melihat sumbangan setiap nilai makanan kepada beberapa parameter terpilih; energy, added sugar, sodium, dietary fiber dan juga saturated fat. Model baru yang ingin dibangunkan adalah lebih memfokuskan kepada transisi makanan dari tahun tahun sebelumnya sehingga sekarang. Dan perkara utama yang ingin ditunjukkan adalah; perubahan corak pemakanan dari minimum makanan proses kepada ultra proses makanan. Apakah ultra proses makanan pula? Ringkasnya, adalah makanan yang diproses supaya boleh dimakan seperti nugget, sausage dan mcm mcm lagi.

Bilamana peringkat pertama selesai, saya akan menggunakan data sebenar (doakanlah bagi mudah untuk mendapatkannya, sekarang dlm proses untuk mendapatkannya) bagi mejayakan model didalam peringkat pertama dan di sini akan melibatkan semua contributing factors dalam pembentukan dietary guidelines yang baru. Sebenarnya banyak lagi akan diterangkan. Namun, saya harus menyahut seruan azan yang telah sebenarnya lama berkumandang.

Sekian, buat kali ini dari meja penulis.

Can I manage to complete it today?

I'm going to see Mr. SV tomorrow and I don't know whether I am that prepared to see him again tomorrow after the last meeting. I was supposed to meet him last week but he was so tied up. Since, it's been almost two weeks that I haven't seen him, he must expect more from me. Eventually, I can't give him that much...Sigh~




Dahlaaa....baik aku teruskan keje

The not-so Ultimate Goal II

Today, I aim to finish analysing all the food's nutrients value. If I still have time tonight, I perhaps wanna at least make a sentence of methodology chapter.

And tomorrow, I'll make a new gantt chart for my study. I need to rush. There's a lot of things that need to be taken care of.

Oh, by the way, the last two days I had went to London and Leicester. The whole journey was nice :) and stomach-full too.

Gym, gym and gym

Bye bye, I need to go to the post office to send letters to MOH and Institue of Public Health now so that I would not miss my body conditioning class this noon.

Oh, btw, I had started my swimming lesson just last week...hihi


Student Progress Monitoring system

Guys, check your progress report here;

Praise to Allah that my sv still remarks me with good grades. 

A random crap perhaps?

Yeah, I haven't been writing for quite a while. And this is so much to do with my thesis writing. Is that still vague for you to relate it with one another? It means that I have not been doing any thesis writing and what more for this blog. Sometimes I feel that I have so much to do that I do not know how to stop start working. This is such a vivid manner...sarcasm. Well, starting from today I have start to put my gear back and go crazy for my study. The thing here is, how well do you love your research? If I'm really that passionate about my research, it'll be 24/7 just about my research. Guys, that's just a metaphor, don't take it seriously. I mean if you have that anxiety towards what-the-what study you're doing now, you won't be complaining. Obstacles are everywhere, it is just the matter of how you deal with it. And seriously, God knows the best for us.

It's March now. I'm planning to at least finish my methodology chapter by end of this March. In April, I intend to write some reports and discussion on the results that will be analysed in this month. If everything goes smoothly, I wish to upgrade my mphil/phd before going back to Malaysia, perhaps around July. Go go Asma'!


A pic of me in the WPHNA, I just wanted to share this;
