January 2nd 2013

The past week has been...good. There's really no other adjective I'd use to describe it. 
Was good to be back home with the family again. Good to be home for Christmas and New Year. Good to be back in the comfort and warmth of my room. Good to hold both the dogs, take them for walks and let them lick my face again. Good to have home-cooked food again. Good to catch up with our family friends and my own friends again.
It was really good.
Went to this really cute place that's just recently opened back in town. Burps & Giggles by the same owners of Indulgence. 
When you see it from the outside you'd think it's some trashy old place that probably isn't all that good but when you step inside. Man that's when you see what it's really like. Nooks and crannies everywhere. Small little rooms like holes in the wall. Quaint little place. Really different.
Quite pricey to be honest. Our burgers were RM18 each. The chocolate drink was RM15. Mango and passion fruit drink was RM8. And the chunky fries with cheese was RM4.
Everything was very fresh though. Worth every penny so that wasn't an issue.


 Chunky fries with cheese.
 Chocolate-Mello; thick Van Houten chocolate drink with marshmallows.
 Mango Passion; mango and passion fruit drink. 
 Our Greeko burgers.
 The bar area.
 Desserts, drinks & ice cream.
 The entrance.
Looking forward to going back there again in Feb to try out their tapas.
 Been traveling for nearly twelve hours today. So dead tired. Took the 11.00am train to KL Central. Reached at around 1.30pm. Took a cab to the Subang airport and waited there for about three hours to board the flight to JB at 5.10pm. Reached Senai at around 6.00pm but we didn't disembark until about half an hour later coz of the heavy rain. 
Met up with some people straight from the airport and only got back at around 10.30pm.
Still cleaning up the place a little before bed. 
Splitting headache since this morning. Temples. Gah.
Lots of plans for the weekend. Can't wait >:)
The new year seems to have started off pretty well.
Here's to brand new beginnings and brand new memories.
Cheers, guys!

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...

#100

We had our Christmas event yesterday evening. Caroling practice was only for 4 days because it was such short notice but everyone did a fantastic job.  And I've finally lost my voice.  I think we clean up pretty nicely despite looking like ogres on usual weekdays. Heh. Almost done with our Paeds posting. Another week before exams begin. Will be spending a few days at home for Christmas. Not too sure about New Year, though. Really don't want to spend it alone here. Hmm. Updates, updates. Let's see. My Vaio is giving me some problems. I took it to the computer centre the other day and they updated my graphic driver but videos still aren't playing properly. Wonder if it's the display driver that needs to be looked into.  Still not sure if I'll be upgrading my Lenovo to the Xperia. Crossing my fingers in the hopes that mom & dad will surprise me for Christmas :P Went around looking for a rabbit a week ago but couldn't find one. Really ...

To Date

Very happy to say that I've settled nicely into the new place. Everything's set up and unpacked and it finally feels like home. Everyone's very friendly here. So helpful. Traffic isn't that bad. Places are close by. We get everything we need. The only downside is that there's no cinema here. Which means I'll be traveling up north frequently now and I can't wait. This semester doesn't exactly seem like a particularly busy one so am really looking forward to some traveling.  Just finished watching Northanger Abbey. Was checking my hair with the phone's front cam and one thing led to another and I took about twelve selfies just like that. Heh. I tell you the things I do when I'm alone. Completely hooked on Downton Abbey. Finished season four and half of season three yesterday. Can't wait for season five to start. Also waiting for season eleven of Grey's Anatomy.  I  have unlimited WiFi. No more quota nonsense so have been ca...
