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!

Table Topics: Judgement & Understanding

Took one of my classmates out today coz she needed to get some things. She's been through a lot. Nothing I will disclose here but we had a pretty long chat in the car once we got back. And it's really true what they say about never judging someone before getting to know them. She opened up to me about everything that was going on. How she felt about things. How she was dealing with things. And at the end of the day it all boils down to understanding. There's a reason behind the things people do. It's simply a matter of accepting that reason and understanding them for it and them helping them get through it. You hear stories about married couples going through a divorce. It's really not an option anyone should think about after marriage. After all it's for better or for worse, right? But what if sometimes it becomes too much to bear? What if sometimes things get impossible to handle? What if that's the reason divorces happen in the first plac...

To Date.

I've recently been nominated for the Liebster Blog Award thanks to a friend of mine I've only known via Facebook for some years now. The blog post for that is still being drafted. I've been posed some pretty tricky questions /;) Haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to coz I didn't bring my laptop back home this time round. Didn't think I'd have much use for it. Things have been a little...crazy here to say the least. I'm actually twenty-one now. Though I must say, the word 'freedom' was never synonymous with this age. All I ever related to this milestone was responsibility. Funny. It's been such a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I could never completely describe it. I've been thinking about how I've celebrated my birthdays all these years. Two birthdays I celebrated away from home. My eighteenth, which was in the UK with Aunty M and Uncle T, and my twentieth, which was in Johor with my classmates and a once...

Confessions Of A Med Student

Everyone knows how tough medicine can be. Not just as a profession but also to study. I knew it would be stressful. I knew. But that's about all I was told. Now that I'm experiencing it, it's a whole different story. Our days are long. Our weekends fly by within the blink of an eye. There are never ending tests, exams, assignments, presentations, role play sessions and lab sessions. Classes start at eight every day five days a week. We finish at five on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Fridays we finish at one and on Wednesdays at three, followed by extra co-curricular activities from five to seven in the evening. Tuesdays are test days for Biochemistry. After every unit we're given a short test to see where we stand which keeps us on our toes. We have role play sessions on Mondays and Fridays. Presentations can be on any given day. Assignments are a day to day thing. Questions, essays. And when I say essays I mean pages and pages of what you've studi...
