12.12.12


These past two weeks or so have been so crazy.
First the car. Then the lighting at home. Then the laptop.
Money's going out faster than water it's so frustrating.
Laptop screen's been giving me some trouble for some months now. Two days back I couldn't open my files, documents, Skype, media player wasn't working and bla bla blah and I had to get it repaired coz all my study notes are in power point files.

So yesterday evening around five thirty I went over to Danga City Mall (in the pouring bloody rain. I don't understand why people use their hazard lights when it rains. Why? Why hazard lights? Just turn on your damn lights you don't need your hazard lights!) in the hope of getting it fixed. Found a reputable comp shop, told them the problem and apparently there was a virus and the laptop had to be reformatted. Left it with them after telling them over and over to back up ALL my stuff and to call me as soon as they could possibly get it done. Went back again today to collect it and it's as good as new now. 
Bought back Subway and Chatime for dinner. 

All I want to do is curl up under my comforter and sleep. So damn sleep deprived. I think we all are.
Still looking for an electrician who's actually free to come over and see to things.
Need to send the curtains in for a wash. Need to get the car serviced. I think by next week that'll be sorted. Then I'll have to clean up the place before I leave.
Lol it's so difficult having to juggle studies, exams, cooking, cleaning and maintenance of the apartment and the car all at one go. There's always something I have to see to, something that needs fixing or cleaning or doing.
I'm just really so very tired.
A friend of mine shared a link to a Bible Study site today. It was about forgiveness coz I'd recently put up a status about it.
And it really got me thinking.
I haven't really forgiven the people who've hurt me in my past.
The post I read, it said the whole concept of forgiving is to let go of what was and embrace what is. And by forgiving, by letting it all go, you eventually forget it ever happened. The fact that you still remember what happened to you all those weeks or months or years ago goes to show that you haven't forgiven the people involved in your past. 
And it's true.
Every time I think about what happened I get so angry. Every time I see them, I remember what happened all those months ago and I manifest hatred. Hatred and anger. All because I haven't forgotten. I haven't forgiven.
Three people.
I need to work my way around forgiving them even if they're not sorry.
That's what it says in Mark 11:25 anyway.
That's what got me thinking this morning.
Just three people...

It's Dr., Now!

It's been 10 days since my final professional exam & announcement of my results. I'm a doctor. & though I've been studying my entire life to reach this stage it still feels so surreal. It still feels like I need to head back south to continue with classes. Like I'm still on some semester break that is going to come to an end. Every so often throughout my day it hits me; I don't have to study anymore - for now at least. But then this though gets clouded over by other things & I forget. I have to constantly keep reminding myself that I've made it. I've actually, finally made it this far. As daunting as this whole new chapter - that's about to begin - is, part of me is excited to start. I'm excited to see where my future takes me, not only in which field of medicine I decide to pursue but also to which place. Big cities are out of the question for me. I realized, over the past couple of days, that since I've left th...

Damn Son

"Before you let a man sweep you off your feet, come here lemme talk to you.  Before you let a man sweep you off your feet, be sure he is prepared to catch you when you fall. You might be too much woman for him.You might be too independent. Too smart. Too much of a catch. He may not be ready for the weight of how beautiful you are. How gorgeous you are. How strong you are. He may not be ready yet. You, have to be prepared...to be yourself regardless of if he can carry you or not. So it's important for you to know his past. His attributes. His strengths. If he's prepared to handle how beautiful you are. How gorgeous, how so awesome you are. So, I'm here to tell you...that it's super important for you to take your time. Don't just listen to sweet nothings. Don't listen to words, watch actions. Because you're too fragile to be dropped.  Your heart is way too valuable to be mishandled.  And your brain don't need a bruise. So before ...

Dubai

Dubai was actually a layover. Since I have friends there I decided to spend a few days with them before flying out to London.  I took Emirates to and from Dubai & the UK & it was great. The unlimited wine was a major plus :P Only spent about 3 days in Dubai so I saw only a few of the major must-see spots.  My friend picked me up from the airport & we went to her place first. It was about 20 minutes away. More depending on traffic. Roads are very broad and each side has 6 lanes with a minimum of 3 on average. You see a lot of SUVs there. There's a lot of American influence. The UAE doesn't have their own national car.  It felt a lot like being in KL at first. Only after a while I started taking in the difference. Plenty of skyscrapers everywhere. But unlike KL, buildings here are built much closer together. & there is a LOT of development going on, still.  After washing up at home, we headed out to the Burj. The entrance is within th...
