South Bound

At the airport at the moment.
In the middle of Dorothy Koomson's Marshmallows for Breakfast.
Even got a hot chocolate.
Them traveler feels.
*cue shades*
Not one of my best holidays so far.
Was out almost every other day with mom getting things done. Had to get my passport renewed. Went to UTC but it was way too crowded. Went to the immigration office in Jelapang but the system was down. Had to go again a couple of times before everything was finally sorted.
And the two days that I was actually free, I was bed-ridden because of terrible back ache. Something I did must've aggravated my lumbar sprain and it came back again in full force. Much worse than before.
The ground beneath my feet is shaking. I thought it was my leg muscles twitching but something's making the floor vibrate O.o
Took a couple of pictures of the doggies this time round. 
After much patience, persuasion and many treats. Kulfi was somewhere digging something. Tsk.
Oh and this is Opus by the way. The newest member of our family.
No idea why, I think it's her ears, but she reminds me of Dobby from Harry Potter.
I think these next couple of hours before and until I reach JB will be my most free until the 26th.
Viva for Pathology tomorrow. Gonna be one hell of a long night tonight. Quite a bit to catch up with before mid semester exams begin next week.
And then there's all the planning that needs to be done for our dinner in January.
I've e-mailed so many hotels but at the rate they're going at, no one on campus is gonna agree to it.
I'm in charge of getting the venue and I really, really want it to be somewhere grand. Not too grand but you know, some place classy at the very least.
Am very particular about all this.
I think that's why it's a little difficult to get a decent place within our budget.
Lots of meetings coming up with the other directors.
Feels like how things were back in school. In charge of something. All the preparation, planning, hosting. Making sure everything falls perfectly into place.
Damn I've missed it.
Laptop battery is dying.
More after all this is over.
Will be back with pictures from Bandung!

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...

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...

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 ...
