Life Update.

Two weeks into my Surgery posting. Another 6 weeks to go. Came back home for the long weekend coz I was really sick and I just wanted some TLC from mom and dad. Took me less than 3 hours to reach the Ipoh toll but it felt like such a long drive because my fever spiked along the way and my nose was blocked. Ugh. Thankful that there was hardly any traffic, though. 
Went for a mani pedi today. Spent way more than I had initially intended to coz I got a gel pedi (apparently it dries immediately coz they use some UV light nail drier and it lasts really long). But oh well. YOLO.
Not sure why the antibiotics I got aren't really working. Fifth day already and I'm still having fever and a very sore throat.
Not really looking forward to heading back south but I'll be back home again before I know it.
Another 9 months and it'll be the end of uni. Really cannot imagine how I'm gonna sit through all my other papers while working. Or how I'm even gonna start work and what I'm gonna do and how I'm gonna handle everything completely on my own. All in good time, eh.
Gizmo has become rather attached to me. I suppose it's both ways. She's pretty much with me 24/7 except for when I'm at the hospital. She's lying down comfortably on my piano as I type this. She's grown so big. When I was sick a few days ago it's like she knew something wasn't right with me and stayed with me the whole time. Always by my side. Sweetest thing ever. I'm still not a cat person but I love her just as much as my doggy babies now 🎔.
Loving life otherwise. Things, by God's grace, are going well.

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 ...
