Lenka

I've been playing and listening to her song "Trouble Is A Friend" religiously everyday ever since the first time I heard it in one of Grey's Anatomy episodes recently.
Hear it and it will haunt you too. Hehe.
I can't embed the video here, so click HERE if you wanna listen the song k. After you're done with that, click HERE for another dose of Lenka.
Enjoy..=)

I want....

...days left I have til my finals.

It may seem like I still have ample of time to study but seriously, I don't. Really. Not when I have to sit for the MBBS final exams where the papers will consist of ALL 5 years' syllabus at ONE go (damn u integrated system!) ; AND I will have to face 2 examiners for one long case and 3 short cases (each case 10 mins - back to back!) all from different departments! YIKES!
The problem with me is, I know that I have to study, but it's kinda hard for me to pick up the pace.
And just to compare the level of knowledge between me and my colleagues, I'm still unsure of the drugs in the SSRI group but THEY can tell you not only the generic and trade names but they can even tell you the DOSAGE without looking at the book!
I'm so dead.
Dead.

...and just to make life seem even more gloomy, my external hard drive just crashed. That's where I kept all my downloaded series and movies; and I haven't even watch half of them.
Maybe it is just God's way to tell me to go and study.
Yes. That must be it.

AND....

I MISS MY BETTER HALF!!!! Life's pretty dull, empty and lonely since he went back to Paris 3 weeks ago.
='(


-Sorry peeps...I must have taken my whining pill today. And I'm also kinda hormonal nowadays; hence the synergistic effect.

Last holiday 'til finals..PROMISE! =p

How was your Diwali celebration and that long weekend we all had? Mine was filled with a lot (prolly too much) of fun under the hot blazing Terengganu sun..hehe..I went to Awana Kijal with Adan and his family for a short holiday/weekend getaway; just when I needed some time out from the books (well..I did study for a few hours this month! Hoo-rah-rah)..We did the whole she-bang..the banana boat ride, the swimming in the salty sea water, the swimming in the from morning til hitam, ate authentic Terengganu food (Mee chalong? anyone?)...all those lah..I had a blast..and I got to spend more time with Adan (now, that's a plus!)
Uncle KA and Aunty R, if you're reading this, thank you for having me there!!! =)



And of course, what's a photo-op on a beach without the jumping session?

One more...

...and it's the hardest one of all 6 resolutions I made for this year.

1. Go to Paris and visit Adan.
JANUARY

2. Buy myself a new car.
JUNE

3. Earn more money. Or, learn how to save money at least.
I'VE BEEN EARNING A FEW RINGGIT FROM NUFFNANG. NOT TOO SHABBY =)

4. Understand central nervous system. I really suck at CNS...tolong!!

5. Go to Singapore, Indonesia OR Thailand
WENT TO SINGAPORE WITH ADAN AND IZAN

6. Holiday with friends
PENANG PENANG PENANG!! =)

I hope I'll be able to strike off number 4 soon, as my final exam is just around the corner!

The Week After

I am still dizzy from all the ketupat, rendang, kuah kacang, lemang, roti jala, and whatnots consumption. Not to mention, a few tonnes heavier.
Raya was rather quiet but not a bit less meaningful than previous years. My family (sans Farahin) celebrated raya in PJ and Rawang this time around. Nothing extraordinary however..same routine, same delicious raya spread, same relatives; just that this year, there's a new addition in my family - the uber adorable Adelynn.
I was (and still am) quite surprised to know that there are uncles and aunties that love me much and think that I am still eligible to receive the paket hijau...and there I was, thinking that I am considered "old" to still receive those..But who's complaining, kan? hehe..The packets were filled with a generous amount, if I might add..hehe..Terima Kasih, ye! =) Starting from next year, it'll be my turn to give out the packets pulak..
Here are a few pictures taken at Dalia's, Arshad's and Zaza's house. =)

Eid-fitr

To my family, friends, and silent blog readers,

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI
&
MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN
from the bottom-most part of my heart.

I have a feeling that starting from this year, I won't be getting duit raya any longer.

Well, maybe just from my parents and sister.

Shoits.

Tagged!

Tagged by Nadiah Alwi & Rashida

Rules :
1. Each player of this game starts off with 15 weird things/habits/little known facts about yourself.
2. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 15 weird things/habits/little known facts as well as state this rule clearly.
3. At the end, you need to choose 10 people to be tagged and list their names.
4. No tags back!!

Here we go...

1. I hate cats. Or rather, I'm scared of them. Don't let a cat get near me or I'll jump on the nearest table or climb the nearest tree...seriously, I kid you not. It has happened before; where I jumped onto the dining table and spilled everything.

2. I seldom go out for dinner with my housemates. Wanna know why? Again, it is because of the damn cats. I always end up asking them to buy dinner for me and eat dinner all by myself when they get home. I will only follow them to certain places, where we do not go that often. Kesian my housemates if I join them to the places which have stray cats around...they'll end up busy shoo-ing the cats away from our table and they have to watch me squirm every few minutes.

3. I am very fussy when it comes to my work/workplace. Every line on the paper has to be super straight. Books have to be lined up/stacked up properly before I can start studying. All chairs and other things have to be in place. I can't concentrate in class when the chairs are all over the place...Funnily enough, my bedroom is the only place I can stand disorganized things.

4. I suffer from severe PMS. I can get very hormonal that time of the month.

5. I trust people easily and I am a poor judge of a character. I tend to befriend with people who will either use me for their own benefits or who will just hurt me in the end. And with many many experiences, I still haven't learn my lesson. I still trust people way too easily.

6. Smart and knowledgeable MEN turn me on. Good looking ones only turns me half-on. =p

7. Deep deep deeper down inside of me, I am somewhat a lesbian "not that straight". I have secret crushes on Anne Hathaway, Nicole Kidman, Sophia Bush, Alexis Bledel, and Leighton Meester (to name a few!).

8. I like to make lists. List of things to buy, list of things I wanna buy when I have the money, list of things to do, list of places to go..and yes, I'm even listing the lists right now. Heck, I'm enjoying this thing because well, I get to make a list!

9. You know when you watch those movie trailers, the voice that narrates it is always the same person? I wanna meet that guy. I think his voice is rather sexy. Haha..

10. Don't bug me while I'm driving. I'll turn into someone else when I drive. Short-tempered, swearing off other drivers, and very very serious. Just ask Adan and Lan. And, I don't like to be behind other vehicles and I always need to be in front of others. I'm kiasu in that way.

11. I bruise easily. The slightest pinch will result with a blue black. No, I don't have any blood discariasis whatsoever..I'm just born fragile..haha

12. I am a sucker for punctuality. I need to be punctual. I don't like to make people wait for me. So don't tell me to be there at 8 when really, you're coming at 9...coz I'll be there at 8..standing like a fool waiting for you. And of course, I don't like waiting.

13. At times, I wonder if I have made the right decision to be in this profession and I often silently pray that I did. Sometimes I doubt myself whether I can do this or not. But well, I got this far and I'm at my last hurdle right now so I might as well just go through with it..get it done and over with. But then again, as they say, undergrad is just the end of a beginning...I will just get a licence to start learning medicine after my undergrad.

14. I am a compulsive shopper (Well, well, I guess that one is out of the closet!)

15. I hate those crocs shoes. I think they are ugly and I really wanna tell that to the designer. It doesn't matter how comfy those shoes are...the fact is still that they are butt ugly.

There you go. All 15 of them.

People I wanna tag:
Zaza
Sakinah
Yusma
Maria
Iqah
Izan
Kak Iza
Faiza

Dirt Cheap Buffet

Burp!
I just came back from Syuen Hotel for buka puasa with my housies and I'm so full that the food is at evel of my esophagus already. Syuen is celebrating their 15th (I think) anniversary and they have a special offer for the buffet spread. We had to pay only RM20 each person and well, for RM20 buffet, don't expect much, of course. The spread was ok and the choices were rather limited, I'd say.

Since we left school, merdeka's eve has been one of the few events we've never missed to celebrate. Every year it has been all about the fireworks...but this year, we wanted to do something different and go somewhere else other than The Curve. Somewhere which we don't have to deal with the traffic, the almost-impossible parking spot, and somewhere rather laid back and not too crowded with sweaty people. We went to Jaya One for the Rantai Art Festival where there were booths selling clothes and accesories (some of them are those online boutiques I've been blog-hopping to) and there were also those wonderful underground singers performing that night. It was a rather casual get-together and of course, a whole lot of camwhoring. At midnight, everyone gathered around the stage and stood up and sang 'Negaraku' after the routine "Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!". I was looking around while singing the anthem and it was kinda nice to see people my age singing the song wholeheartedly and sincerely.

This year, our dearest Jepun, our fair lady's birthday fell in the month of Ramadhan...thus, the celebration is slightly different from our usual birthday celebrations. With Ema as the kepala, and Hashley as the main man (kesian u kene menipu banyak, Hash..) we organized the surprised birthday via facebook. Our discussion was so long that the thread became as many as 130 messages and as long as 5 pages!...but of course, there were times we were slightly off tract sikit (discussing benda lain la tu..hehe). We planned to make zaza feel sad and dissapointed (too much, no?) before her birthday by telling her everybody was busy on that day and we can only celebrate her birthday by buka puasa together at muhibbah 3 DAYS after her birthday...kesian zaza..
The celebration turned out awe-shheeme! We all were eating endlessly sampai tak payah sahur the next morning..there were Tasha and Hash's kuih sampan (so banyak that it was almost like pesta kuih sampan), Shida's yummy spaghetti, Faratiya's mum's famous seafood pasta, and...semualah! The cake we ordered was scrumptious! I ate 3 slices (and of course it went straight to my waist, thank you). The highlight of the night has to be us playing CRANIUM!! Best k! I think next time whenever we have another get-together(s) nih, we have to play this game! hehe..I still can't get over the fact my boyfriend did that Beyonce move!
Well, all in all I (and the rest) hope that Zaza enjoyed herself that night (u did, didn't u?? hehe) and we all hope that she loves the Polaroid camera we gave her..love you Za!= )

In The Pink Land Again

My hands are itchy to update this blog. Will update once I get those Merdeka pictures and also the ones where we celebrated Zaza's birthday =)

Btw, I have started Obstetrics and Gynaecology posting, yet again. This time I have to conduct 5 deliveries..(Maria, u dah buat O&G?)
And, my addiction is soo not wearing off anytime soon. Sigh. I really do need help.
