1. Lack of facility |
· mmg plan nk iphone 4s or samsung s2. tgh dilemma skrg ni nk yg mana satu. mmg duration nk charge lama eh? (1) · wei upload la gamba and come online (42) |
· I’m not a debater, but I just want to know what is going on with the UIA debate team, they seem to keep on losing. Even the English debate team losses to UITM, while the Bahasa Melayu team losses to MMU. No offense, I’m just wondering. · Why does the IIUM website’s cover picture looks like a vampire theme? My suggestion is perhaps we can make it more interesting by organizing a cover photo designing competition, the winners will be credited and those selected winning entries will be used and changed weekly by the admin. I believe there’s a lot creative people out there in IIUM. · I am planning to get an iphone 4s or Samsung s2 but I’m torn between which one. By the way, is the charging duration that long? · Hey, did u upload the pictures? Please come online |
2. Lack of registral competence | · haha mana siap lagi lah cik kak. haha lpeas ni nak buat stereo projection lg, cross section utk fault lagi. taknak nampak serabut atas map, thats y buat atas trce ppr. tapi serius tade intrusion, TA dah check map fara before balik hari tu. fara jumpa slickenlines kat limestone tu je (7) · hrp2 dpt jd motivator yg berjaya, xde experience ni..haha.. (18) · tak lah, terlampau banyak application, it last but duration untuk charge gila lama. haha. hey i think s2 is good enough, pengsan lah nak ada iphone. jom samsung!!!! (36) · hahahaha heyyyy! Are u ejeking me sbb we met haritu I dlm silat tournament? (44) | · Faraha dear! Yes it’s been a while after graduation since I last heard from you! How are you? I’m doing good. I will start my chambering next week. Right now I’m still having my holiday. · I was sitting next to a kid with chicken pox when I went to the clinic for a medical check-up. Hopefully me and my baby won’t be infected by the virus. I was so tired to stand and get another seat. · Haha, it’s not completed yet, dear. Afterwards I have to do stereo projection and some cross section to find fault. I don’t want it to look messy on the map that is why I’m doing it on a trace paper, but seriously there is no intrusion. The TA has checked my map before I went home and I only found some sicken lines on the limestone, that’s all. · Hopefully I will be a successful motivator even without ample experience.. haha · Who is the person who sells the RM45 DSLR 8GB pendrive the other day? · I have an idea but I have no idea how to execute it, but someone has to create a wireless charger for mankind, seriously I think that will be profitable. · Not really, there’s a lot of applications, the battery lasts long but you have to charge it for a long duration. Haha. By the way, I think Samsung s2 is good and iphone is too costly, so let’s buy Samsung! · Hahaha hey! Are you teasing me because when we met last time I was in a silat tournament? |

What about you Afilash? Are you doing your degree in USM? Heard you broke up with Shalini. Is that true? Eh muna, where are you? |
5. To show identity with a group | · | · I’m done with CDA! Thanks for the words of encouragement and other stuffs. As a reward, you will be given a free hair spa treatment or whatever you request. Now it’s my turn to encourage you for your Semantics! hehe |
