This I Miss

I miss being able to just go out and do things whenever I wanted.
I miss JB!
I miss Danga Bay, where we spent late nights walking, talking, laughing our asses off, eating, studying (believe it or not) for exams.
I miss the little coffee place I used to frequent. They had the best chocolate danish.
I miss having Subway just 5 minutes away!
I miss being able to record my audio without having ambulance sirens in the background.
I miss my little tin can that consumed so little petrol compared to my lady in black now who sucks up a third of my allowance, sometimes more, every month.
I miss the malls! And the cinemas oh my goodness. I could just book a ticket online and be at the cinema half an hour later with my popcorn or pint of ice-cream. Yes pint.
I miss taking long drives at night into town, around town.
I miss having the energy to be out the whole night and still be wide awake in class the next day without any sleep.
Everything has changed :(
Now if I don't get 8 hours of sleep a night I feel like a walking zombie at the hospital the next day.
I can't be at the cinema in record time like I used to be. Now the closest one is GSC in Malacca and I hate GSC but that's the best option. The only option -.-
If I want Subway I have to drive an hour into Malacca to get it.
The mall here is so tiny. It's not even a mall I think. Just a building with shops. 5 shops selling shoes alone but nothing's nice.
I miss service there. Worship service especially. Church was small but everyone was so pleasant. Everyone was like family. Here it's nowhere near that. And I can't seem to find a proper church that has an English service any time other than Sunday morning >:(
I miss my old place, too. All the cooking we did. All the movies we watched. All the time I spent getting used to staying alone and actually loving it.
I really, really miss it.

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 ...

Weekender

It's been a rather good week to say the least. Assignments and tests are piling up slowly but surely. Went shopping today straight after class. Was looking for a comfortable pair of black flats. The lace one I had previously had torn at the sides (thanks to my gigantically broad feet) and the one pair I recently brought from home seemed smaller than when I'd last used them. Walked around for easily an hour looking for a pair that would catch my eye. Finally found one in Vincci. Also lace (don't ask me why I like lace I just do). Tried on their biggest size and it fit! Went to Mango and looked around for a pair of beige slacks. Found a pair of cargo pants. Minus the pockets. Those big, baggy, comfy pants. Grabbed a U.S. size 6, since all my other pants from there are that size, only to come back and realize that it was way too big. TOO BIG I SAY . I should have settled for the dress I saw but no. I wanted the pants. Gah. Removed the button and adjusted ...
