Thomas Cup

2010-05-16T16:17:00.004+08:00

The 2010 Thomas Cup competition has just ended with China winning it for the 4th consecutive time. Our nation had such a high a hope to recapture the cup after a 12 years' absent. Yet, as usual, we weren't anywhere near to walking the talk. Our nations campaign collapsed against Japan when we lost the 2-0 lead to succumb 3-2. After that, the road to be taken was as hard as it can be as China was in the same half of the draw. Against China, our players tried. Nevertheless, the result showed that we are lightyears away from beating China. Our players were like little boys playing against their big brother, getting thrashed with even under 10 scores. Its a pity really. The players were better than that, they could and should have done better. In the end, the long wait continues...

The China vs Mas match was one highly anticipated match as whoever wins it has high hopes of winning the cup itself. So, me, CT and YY went to a nearby mamak just to watch the match, hoping our players can brush away the early hiccups and send the chinese players home. We thought the match was starting at 6pm, so we ended up earlier at the mamak stall only to be told that the match was at 7pm. As we arrived earlier(not too early actually, it was already 630pm), we were able to get a place as a lot of the others were 'camping' on the seats waiting for the match as well.

Fullhouse- The mamak stall is completely filled with people anticipating to see a Malaysian victory... Its so full that every seat is occupied...
Before the match- Before the match, CT and YY seems to be in good spirit...lol
After the match- Gone is the energy and the smile...its disappointment written all over the face.
Roti tisu- Roti tisu which has been torn apart...lol. We ate 2 of it over the match...
Oh yeah! vs Oh man!- Lin Dan has proven to be Chong Wei's achilles heels...better luck next time. The record of Lin Dan vs Chong Wei is thus 16 wins and 6 losts for Lin Dan...Damn, isn't he just too good?sigh

Neway is in town!

2010-05-13T03:48:00.009+08:00

In Penang, almost all teenagers or those who loves karaoke will know the name 'Red-Box'. It was the most popular place to go for karaoke among youngsters like ourselves. Nevertheless, Neway has come to town! Red-Box has excellent rates and nice food, but the downside is its almost at the other end of the island. So, with Neway opening in Queensbay mall, me and SC decided to 'sacrifice' ourselves for the benefit of our friends and give it a try... :p
Main Entrance- This is the main entrance of the Neway karaoke center. It's located just opposite Golden Screen Cinema. There is no way you will miss it once you entered level 3. It used to be a multimedia center for Queensbay. Forgotten what was the name already. Well, I bought my HTC Touch Pro here, and now I have no idea where to send my phone if I need to have it serviced...haha

Receptions Counter- Even before entering Neway, you will be able to spot the counter as well as the crowd waiting in front of the center(if there's any...we went there on a weekday, so as expected, no need to wait for rooms). As far as I'm concerned, the receptionist are quite polite and attend to you as soon as you are in their sight. There is no need for a member card for reservation compared to Red-Box which needs you to have a member card which is applied for around RM50. You can make a call to make reservations for rooms too.
Rates- This was the rates written just outside of Neway. On paper, it looks to be cheaper than Red-Box. All those price are for 3 hours' time within the center. And BEWARE, beside all those price are not '.00'. Instead, those are '++'. Meaning its all written as RM28++ or RM18++ instead of RM28.00 or RM18.00.

Corridors- Basically, these is the corridors of Neway leading to each of the rooms. Well, the corridors are...erm...just corridors...lol. Its design are more or less the same as Red-Box while the only obvious difference is the colour. Red for Red-box(duh!) and purple for Neway. The fella in the green shirt over there is SC...XD

Ticket- So once you tell the receptionist how many person you have, the receptionist will give you a ticket that looks something like this. For our case, since we went there at 3pm, we each were accounted for RM16++ for 3 hours which is till 6pm. RM16 isn't too bad a deal, with the inclusion of a meal(one dish, one drink), but the problem lies in the tit-bits. One bowl of tit-bits is RM11. Well, some would say, 'just say NO to the tit-bits!'. But here's the bad news-ITS COMPULSORY! Furthermore, if you look carefully, Neway also charge government tax and service tax amounting to 15% in total too. Bugger... >.< Booze collection- On our way to the room, we walk by a magnificent collection of liquor which was in display, notifying all the customers that they do serve alcohol. The liquor are all placed nicely into the display box and looks extremely tempting...

Buffet trays- Just opposite the liquor display is the room where all the food for the buffet is displayed. As we were there during the afternoon, no food was available there. But when we were leaving, we saw some of the food they prepared. The food looks to be quite nice to be honest. Too bad we forgotten to take some photos on it.

Menu 1- This is the menu where we pick out the free dish we want. Each person is subject to one of these only. If you do not want to eat, you can change your dish into a drink, which I think is absolutely not worth it...haha

Menu 2- This is the drink menu. On the most right page is the drinks that is given for free in the package. Other than that, there are hard liquor, beers, and also cocktails. The hard liquor's price is no joke, even the cheapest one has 3 digits to it... Beers have different prices during normal and peak hours. Its basically double the price during peak hours.

Menu 3
Menu 4
Menu 5
Menu 6
Drinks- These 2 are the drinks that me and SC ordered. The first one being Honey Lemon and the second one Apple Aloe. Both tasted nice and is quite refreshing, especially after singing to much...haha

Foods and Tit-bits- The first one is the Japanese Rainbow Roll, which I did not ordered... Somehow, the waiter mistaken my order and brought me this instead. I felt something was wrong but only until when I was writing this post did I know the waiter made a mistake....sigh. Whoever is thinking of ordering this as their dish, I would say DON'T!!! This dish is no where near nice. At least a mile's distance. lol. As for the second one, its the famous RM11 tit-bits. It's basically just crackers, and I think I can get it for less than RM2. Its obvious where their main revenue comes from. The last picture is the Tempura Platter. This, my friends, is one dish worthy to be ordered. Apart from the fish tempura, there is a piece of ebi tempura as well as fries. This has got to be considered when you want to place an order...XD

Internal Designs- These are the pictures taken from inside the karaoke rooms. Nothing much to say about it as its more or less the same compared to other karaoke centers.
Lock- One special feature here is that if you ordered for a VIP room, the room is kept safe from others with the help of the coded lock. Well, I think we most probably won't need it much, unless you are planning something really really weird or shouldn't be viewed publicly....XD

The receipt- Last but not least, the receipt we got after paying the bill. It shows clearly that we each had to pay RM16 per head and also the add on for the RM11 tit-bits as well as the 15% tax. So, it all amounted to a total of RM49.50. Well, it was a fun experience, so I think it was worth it. Anyway, gonna come again soon with plans coming up... So maybe if any of you are planning to go there, we might bump into each other there...haha. Till then, ciao!

Oh yeah, here's the contact for those of you who are interested to go^^ Have fun!

BACK!

2010-05-10T01:17:00.005+08:00

ApplePie is back from an enjoyable trip from Taiwan and is itching to blog it down...However, due to the 'over-playing' effect, applePie has also caught a flu back from Taiwan...hopefully, the blog can be done soon>.<
The beginning of the wonderful experience... v ^.^

Away to Taiwan...

2010-05-02T06:28:00.002+08:00

ApplePie will be away for a week from 2nd May to 9th May for his trip to Taiwan...Its the first visit to a foreign country for me. And it will be the first time I get to use my new passport...woohoo! Hoping for lots of nice photo on the way back...hehe

Laughing my head off...XD

Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn.. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chopcan give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.

Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. So have a cup now and then!

Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.

Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!

Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!! ..... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?

Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans ! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!

Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.

Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!

Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.

And remember:
'Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO, What a Ride'

AND......

For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

CONCLUSION

Eat and drink what you like.
Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

Barcelona bites the dust!

2010-04-29T06:42:00.007+08:00

It was a well anticipated champions league semi-finals in the Nou camp. Inter had had the upper hand from a well fought victory at the San Siro and came with a 3-1 advantage. Barcelona are known as the worlds best football club and are planning to make it 2 champions league finals in a row. They were itching to qualify for the finals to rub salt into Real Madrid's wound as the final was to be held in the Bernabeu stadium. Inter's coach Jose Mourinho has had a difficult season in Italy due to the poor relations with the media. However, he is indeed the Special One. Much will be debated regarding his tactics of total defense for this much. Inter had been defending since the very beginning of the game and had done it extremely effectively, limiting Messi and co any sniff of the goal. It was made even more difficult when Motta was sent of in the 28th minute under a controversial circumstances. Being hit on the neck,Sergio Busquets held his face when he fell and cause the referee to pull out the red card. Looking at the statistics, Barcelona had 84% of possesion, but was unable to score the 2 goals they needed and it was against 10 men! You can imagine how hard the Inter players fought in the game. People might say that Mourinho's Inter were playing anti-football game, but hey, every game has their own tactics, and defending is definitely one of them. Barcelona was not a gracious loser. In fact, the sprinklers on the pitch was opened when the Inter players celebrated on the pitch. What ashame! However, all in all, a great night for Inter, and I'm sure Madrid fans would be celebrating as well. Barcelona bites the dust!
The Special One- Jose Mourinho has done a great job bringing Inter into the finals...Now can he bring them the trophy that his former employer wanted so so much?
Gracious loser? Nah- Victor Valdes confronting the Inter manager on the pitch when he tried to celebrate on the pitch

Lionel Messi- One of the greatest football phenomena. However, even Messiah wasn't able to save Barcelona from elimination.
Oh man! What a miss!- Bojan reacts after missing a free header that would've won them the tie

Super mario!

2010-04-28T03:33:00.003+08:00

Super Mario Bros is one of the oldest game and I think should have been the most popular games when we were young. Its really kinda fun playing the game even now.
The player takes on the role of the main protagonist of the series, Mario and the objective is to race through the mushroom kingdom, survive the main antagonist bowser's forces and save Princess Toadstool(lolz...wat a funny name, but then again, they normally are in games...XD).The playing world has coins scattered around it for Mario to collect, and special "?" bricks, which when hit from below by Mario, may contain more coins or a special item. Other "secret" (often invisible) bricks may contain more coins or rare items.

Well, I have heard KY mentioning about some guy playing all the theme songs in the game and came through it just now. Its really amazing...just thought of sharing it around...hehe

Aint the guys just fantastic? *clap clap clap*

爱过日子，不要‘挨’过日子。。。

2010-04-28T00:52:00.002+08:00

有人说，
现在的日子很苦，
是需要‘挨’过的。
没有的回家，有很多的‘clinic session'，
有很凶的dr,有很麻烦的病人。
有些日子会比另一些难过，
这是无可否认的。
但，要记得，
在难过的日子都会过的，
一定有见到曙光的那天。。。
不要想自己要‘挨’过日子，
因为，想到‘挨’这个字时，
心里会有了一股莫名的压力了。
加油哦！

One of the best outings during my time in USM... After all the planning and hardwork, the plan materialize on the 16th of April, Friday. It was a wonderful outing with good food, beautiful scenery and great company...All in all, there was only world to describe it---MAGNIFICIENT!!! We got our own 'BAYWATCH' CS, XD

24th April 2010...The day I left...

2010-04-25T05:36:00.004+08:00

Today is the first day post-USM era... I have been staying on in the campus for more than a week since result for my finals was announced. The place that I have hated so much when i first came has became a place where there is a lot of precious memories that I know I wont forget... Its really an emotional departure. Felt so much like crying(I have always been a sentimental person,just that i dun really show it... :p).

Leaving USM means leaving all the environment I have been so used too. The hostels, the lecturers, and most importantly Mel and my friends. After 3 years of relationship, this is a stern test for both me and Mel. Its the first time we have been separated like this. Hopefully, everything will be fine. Apart from that, there is my dental friends, coursemates, yamcha gang, football gang as well as the soopin, LX and company. I have always felt blessed to not only able to have great friends with those of my years, but also, from you guys... As for the yamcha gang, please continue the tradition of thursday nite! haha. Weeksdays are always dull, especially when there is too much teachings to prepare, end posting exams and dental clinics. Yet, I feel that since we had our regular yamcha session, there is at least sometime nice to look forward to every week. We laughed, we sighed, we teased, we drank and we ate together. Those were the times when all our troubles seemed like nothing at all! It was like nothing else mattered anymore. I believe Jackson would have said the same. The only thing was that too bad the session was not started earlier...haha.

To my dental friends, I am glad that USM policy requires us to have lectures and PBL session together during the first 3 years of our course. If not, I might have missed the opportunity to know great friends like you all. Lek tuan, kian ping, kit yan, jorhann and zhiling... Will always remember you guys! Hope you all will do great for ur pro^^

Even before my final exam, our football gang had to be disband as most were going back leaving just a few of us...I doubt I can find another team of friends who can play as good as you guys! Hopefully we can play together again in the future. Get a trophy for the coming competition ya...haha

I will remember the 24th of April 2010, the day when I leave USM, the day when tears were shed for me, the day I said goodbye... I am deeply touched. But remember this, goodbye is 再见，which literally means that we will all meet again. As long as there is the will, I am sure, we will all see each other again. Its been a wonderful 5 years, no bad memories, only fond fond memories that I have already started to miss...I was doubtful that missing out in UM was a blessing in disguise, but not anymore...Cheers!

April the 15th, the day I finally finished my medical course...

2010-04-16T03:48:00.002+08:00

Today is a great day, where i have finally completed my course for undergraduate studies. after today, there is a lot of responsibilities to handled. But still, it is one of my happiest days. 5 years has passed since I first stepped into USM, hating that I had to come to Kelantan for studies instead of Penang or KL. And now, here I stand, feeling deeply sentimental. Its so so so sad that I have to leave my friends to walk our separate paths. It has really been a wonderful 5 years, tough, yet enjoyable. Thinking about all the activities, the volleyballs gang, the football gang, our dota society, drum team members, our yam cha society...it all just makes me so sad that I have to leave already. And also, leaving my dear here will be one of the hardest things to me also.

People say life must move on in order to progress. Its really easier said then done. I know i am going to miss everyone(well, most at least, haha) here, as I have already started to missed them already. I am also very thankful, that over the 5 years here, I have received a lot of help, from seniors, from my coursemates and roomates, I sincerely would like to thank you all for making it possible for me to complete my studies.(special thanx to alex, francis, biing horng, bik liang and many more^^)

May God bless us, and may we have many many gatherings to see each others again... I will never forget all of you, as you all have been an important part of my life. Cheers!

Full Throttle!

2010-03-30T17:32:00.004+08:00

4 more days left and the 'war for glory' is gonna start. 5 years has passed in the blink of an eye, and now, there is one final obstacle that stands in my way of graduating. After 5 years, it takes only 8 days to make a difference. All that we've learned should be put to use. Confidence, knowledge and luck is all needed to the fullest. We have heard so much about the various 'killers' and pitfalls of the exam, and hopefully, with any luck, we wouldn't have to deal with any of them.

This is also the first time I have made any post-exam plans. Every since UPSR in primary school until now, I have never made any plans for post-exam periods as I am always worried about the 'what ifs...'. This time around, I have made plans for a 1 week visit to Taiwan in May and maybe further trips to Singapore around end of May. Making this plans is kinda scary, as any problem in the coming exam would force me to scratch all of them off my calendar. As the saying goes, 'there isn't any reason why we can't do it, other than not doing it', quoted from myself...XD. So, there's no other choice, I'm going all in! Full throttle!

Wish me luck^^

My wall of knowledge...

2010-03-30T17:02:00.004+08:00

With my exam coming up, I have been making notes one after another and place them on my wall so tat i can just read off them... And somehow, it seems that I have done too much...
Instead, now I have a full set of wall paper, even on my cupboard...XD

一封很感人又有意思的信……

2010-03-26T14:22:00.000+08:00

我兒：寫這備忘錄給你，基於三個原則：

（一）人生福禍無常，誰也不知可以活多久，有些事情還是

早一點說好。

（二）我是你的父親，我不跟你說，沒有人會跟你說。

（三）這備忘錄記載的，都是我經過慘痛失敗得回來的體驗，可以為你的成長省回不少冤枉路。

以下，便是你在人生中要好好記住的事：

（一）對你不好的人，你不要太介懷，在你一生中，沒有人有義務要對你好，除了我和你媽媽。至於那些對你好的人，你除了要珍惜、感恩外，也請多防備一點，因為，每個人做每件事，總有一個原因，他對你好，未必真的是因為喜歡你，請你必須搞清楚，而不必太快將對方看作真朋友。

（二）沒有人是不可代替，沒有東西是必須擁有。看透了這一點，將來你身邊的人不再要你，或許失去了世間上最愛的一切時，也應該明白，這並不是什麼大不了的事。

（三）生命是短暫的，今日你還在浪費著生命，明日會發覺生命已遠離你了。因此，愈早珍惜生命，你享受生命的日子也愈多，與其盼望長壽，倒不如早點享受。

（四）世界上並沒有最愛這回事，愛情只是一種霎時的感覺，而這感覺絕對會隨時日、心境而改變。如果你的所謂最愛離開你，請耐心地等候一下，讓時日慢慢沖洗，讓心靈慢慢沉澱，你的苦就會慢慢淡化。不要過分憧憬愛情的美，不要過分誇大失戀的悲。

（五）雖然很多有成就的人士都沒有受過很多教育，但並不等於不用功讀書，就一定可以成功。你學到的知識，就是你擁有的武器。人，可以白手興家，但不可以手無寸鐵，謹記！

（六）我不會要求你供養我下半輩子，同樣地我也不會供養你的下半輩子，當你長大到可以獨立的時候，我的責任已經完結。以後，你要坐巴士還是Benz（賓士），吃魚翅還是粉絲，都要自己負責。

（七）你可以要求自己守信，但不能要求別人守信，你可以要求自己對人好，但不能期待人家對你好。你怎樣對人，並不代表人家就會怎樣對你，如果看不透這一點，你只會徒添不必要的煩惱。

（八）我買了十多二十年六合彩，還是一窮二白，連三獎也沒有中，這證明人要發達，還是要努力工作才可以，世界上並沒有免費午餐。

（九）親人只有一次的緣分，無論這輩子我和你會相處多久，也請好好珍惜共聚的時光，下輩子，無論愛與不愛，都不會再見。

你的爸爸

有人说。。。

2010-03-23T01:09:00.003+08:00

每个人一生之中心里总会藏着一个人，也许这个人永远都不

会知道，
尽管如此，这个人始终都无法被谁所替代。
而那个人就像一个永远无法愈合的伤疤，
无论在什么时候，只要被提起，或者轻轻的一碰，就会隐隐作痛。
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
当你喜欢我的时候，我不喜欢你，
当你爱上我的时候，我喜欢上你，
当你离开我的时候，我却爱上你，
是你走得太快，还是我跟不上你的脚步,
我们错过了诺亚方舟，错过了泰坦尼克号，
错过了一切的惊险与不惊险，我们还要继续错过。
我不了解我的寂寞来自何方，但我真的感到寂寞。
你也寂寞，世界上每个人都寂寞，只是大家的寂寞都不同吧

。

不知为什么，看见这小段的字，感觉是那么的感触。。。

2010-03-22T16:30:00.002+08:00

last 10 days before Pro III... time really flies. It has been 5 years since I first step into USMKK. All this while, I had so much fun without really realizing it. So glad for all the people I met here, be it coursemates, juniors, seniors, dota fanatics... It is all because of the people I met that I am what I am now. Though it was disappointing not to be able to enter UM at the beginning, but it seems this choice isn't even close to bad. Getting gear up for my final exam made me realize, I am really gonna miss my time here. People who has had influence on me for the past few years, I really appreciate your help and support. I really hope that friendship is stronger than the obstacle of distance. Anyway, I can still look forward to the future with Yikoko and company back in Penang. Hopefully KKM doesnt send me to venture into unknown grounds instead of Penang for work...hehe.

Overworked!!!

2010-01-05T13:37:00.002+08:00

I have just came back to campus following a 4 day holiday in Penang. Coming back here was already bad enough, but coming back into piles of work is even worst still. 90 cases to write, 8-5pm fully packed classes with oncalls following at night. Presentations and power points to prepare... uek! Blood all come out d...>.< Just when you think that things couldn't get much worse...

X'mas eve

2009-12-25T01:46:00.011+08:00

Its finally Christmas eve. Unfortunately for this year, Christmas drops on a Friday. Usually there would be a public holiday. However, with Friday being a weekend here in Kelantan, it seems we have one less public holiday for this year. Nevertheless, after yesterday' steamboat, I've followed up the Christmas celebration with another excellent dinner. After all, whats a celebration without a feast? haha.
Bread Master
Today's dinner was in the bread master cafe situated approximately 1km from KB mall where a freak accident occured recently. The cafe isn't especially outstanding from the outside, partly due to the old sign board where the color has already started to fade off. However, the food here is better than the looks of the shop to say the least.

Icy Larva-3/5
We started off with an appetizer, the Icy Larva. For this dish, it kinda new to me. Its actually served with an ice-cream and a red hot kopi O in a separate container. To be honest, this dish is not only interesting in the look, but also the taste. I've never imagining adding ice-cream to kopi O, and I've never thought it would taste good. haha
UFO Toast with Ham and Cheese- 3.5/5
This is also one of the nice appetizer that we ordered on the day. The ham and cheese is separated in 2 compartments of the bread. Mixed with the vegetables, its taste is excellent. Too bad the price makes it less worthwhile though.
Oriental Sauce Chicken Chop-4.5/5
This is one of the main course of the night. Chicken chop seems to be one of the most common and most popular choice of food in Kelantan. There's various shops selling different kind of chicken chop, but I have to say, this is one of the best. Not only is the piece of meat large, it doesn't consist mostly of the flour used to cover the meat. The sauce is sweet and the garlic bread is excellent!

Bread Soup- 3/5
This is a dish that is one of its kind. Instead of using fruits or vegetable(wintermelon) as the container of the soup, they used the bread. Mushroom soup inside a well baked bread. Too bad the bottom of the bread is too thick. But then again, a thin one would have leaked all the soup.
Fresh Frozen Cheese Cake- 4/5
Last but not least is the cheese cake. This cheese cake has a layer of biscuit under it topped with a thick layer of pure cheese. Excellent for cheese lovers.

Well, thats about it for the Christmas eve dinner I guess. Hopefully on Christmas day itself there will be better things ahead. Merry X'mas and a happy new year to all!

New fish tank

Woohoo...after taking a long holiday from rearing fishes, I've finally made a come back! haha. After seeing a nice fish tank of my friend's, I've gone to the shop to make my purchase of a new tank and also the fishies. 3 new guppy and 3 barbs. All in all, I guess I am still a kid deep down, being all excited with the fishes. Hehe. Hopefully will keep my motivated to sit down and study...XD

Steamboat at LX

2009-12-24T05:07:00.009+08:00

Another holiday beckons, and yes, a gathering finally! We had a first steamboat for sometime. There was quite a good turn out with a total of around 17 people. Too bad we hadn't played any games, if not, it would have been super interesting. But then again, its not like this is the last time anything of sorts will happen....XD I had a great time, and I hope everyone else did too....Weee~

Growing up ain't that much fun

2009-12-24T04:20:00.002+08:00

Recently, I have had to hand in a form which has a very big influence over my future 'well-being'. The form contains the location that I am applying for my housemenship training after graduation. Without much hesitation, I've decided that I want to be posted in either Penang island/mainland/Sg. Petani. Its not like I have a choice anyway. If not, the 3 choices would have been Penang Island x3.

To be honest, certain things are really troubling me. From the final final exam of my undergraduate programme(hopefully?), to the future work and work place. Final exams are always a headache for me, as I have not really enjoyed the things that I have been taking since I have left mathematics. Its just so very difficult for me to memorize things.(or maybe I guess I am just lazy?) Deep down, I know I have been panicking as I have just turned myself completely away from studying lately, putting my leg completely off the pedal. I have to pull myself back together and walk this last walk confidently, but it seems I need some extra motivation which have been lacking in my study.

Working in hospitals, as a doctor, seems so unlike what I've hoped for in my life. Yes, being a doctor is a sacred job. But, it is also a scary job. There can't be another job that is as delicate as handling a patient's life and death. Every decision you make counts, every second counts. One wrong move, and 'puff', your patient's gone knocking on heaven's door(or hell maybe?) Nevertheless, its not this that worries me. Instead, it is the long working hours that will threaten what I have always wanted- my freedom. I love my control of myself, my time, my activity. But then, once work starts, there's a total lack of control over my life. Sigh...

Its obviously hard to be a grown-up, but then again, its not easy growing up either....

Happy birthday XD

2009-12-13T01:08:00.002+08:00

Haha...Another fun 'yamcha' session which included the birthday celebration of our long time member SL. Hope she'll have a good year ahead. hahaha

Lately, thursday have really been worth looking forward to.With the weekly yamcha session on thursday night, its just plenty of fun. Too bad HN wasnt here this week. Hopefully there's gonna be another session the following week. Wonder if there will be a bowling session as well?

Missing paper

2009-12-10T00:43:00.001+08:00

Seems like all good things comes to an end.
Instead of happily getting my marks for the end posting exam for the O&G posting,
I get a message by the academic office saying,
'sorry, but we have misplaced your paper,
so, now we don't have your result.
You might need to resit the paper.'
What the heck?
An apex university and they can't even keep a piece of paper safe...swt...

一年一度的

2009-12-08T22:59:00.002+08:00

十二月了，很多一年一度的季节又要来了。。。
雨季已经率先报道了，
下了好几天的大雨，终于肯休息一下了。
紧接而来的是‘黄水季节’，
宿舍里不是水很黄，就是没有水，
我都不知道那个惨一点。
水黄到烂泥水看起来都干净些，
冲凉，刷牙要用这些水，
简直是糟糕。
我们还要为小黑准备准备下，
不然到时还真的是臭死掉。
哎，很真是多灾多难。。。>.<

Pet hamster...

2009-12-06T14:03:00.015+08:00

Its raining season in Kelantan now, and most of the time i have is either spent in my room... The lack of human contact apart from with my roomate is making me seriously considering getting a pet hamster. Nevertheless, it seems to get some objection from my parents as I had a bit of a problem with animal fur when I was young. With my finals exam coming in exactly 119 days more, I can really do well with a company for studies. Imagine having a hamster running on a wheel in front of you while you studying, its kinda fun...n maybe teaching some tricks to it when i'm free(i doubt anyone does that). well, the thing that caught my attention is that hamster basically are stupid...Yes, stupid, and that kinda reduces the chances of it getting on my nerve. But then again, if it ever does getting on my nerve, I am practically less than a fling away from my window...hoho.
Aren't they just adorable?--------->Hope I can get to find some small cage soon, then off i go to a pet shop for one of those hamsters. But then again, I have no idea as to how to take of them just yet...Any suggestions? Or maybe I should just head over to Yikoko's blog and feed his online hamster?

Unfortunate event

2009-11-05T13:27:00.003+08:00

Today is really a miserable day. After fetching my sis who came to visit Kelantan to breakfast, we noticed that when we gone back to the car, the glass on the backdoor was broken, and my bag was stolen. Ironically, i remembered to ask my sister to bring her bag out of the car, I forgotten my own. Although this is the first time this thing happened to me, but it has happened numerous time at that particular place already. Sad to say, our local enforcer seems to be incapable to do anything about it. From this, I not only have to replace the glass and also tint it, I also lost my lab coat, pen torch, stethoscope, and one of my book. All in all, a lost of at least Rm500 is expected. Really is a freaking miserable day....飞来横祸

近来，除了乒乓以外，其他的运动都好像玩得不过瘾。一些应为不够人。一些应为感觉和那些人和我格格不入。时间，很明显的，已经把很多东西冲淡了。要好的，也已变成普通的。那些普通的，也变成了生疏的。自然的，有活动，也不管你的事了。自己就看看，听听，笑笑就好。

或许，我不应该有太多的要求，至少还有你们，槟城的也好，第四年的也好。如果说自己年的已无法，就算了吧。

累了，不想再想了。。。心酸了，也算了。。。

累了休息吧。够了。。。

Weather

2009-10-19T19:28:00.000+08:00

Dang...the weather is so unpredictable nowadays.
Its super hot in the afternoon. And it rains so heavily so suddenly sometimes.
Can't the weather be just rain, rain , rain and more rain?
So, looking forward for this weekend where i can just sit in front of my computer and play ROSE^^

As predicted...

2009-10-14T17:34:00.002+08:00

Sometimes somethings are so obvious that it will happen exactly as u imagine it. XD. As expected, B didn't turn up for the presentation yet again. Can't say i am at all surprised. The funny thing is that the doctor say that maybe B needed a HIV test as someone mentioned that B's diarrhea problem has been chronic/long-term, which was wat i was saying to my frends about the day before. Lolz.

13th Oct

2009-10-14T01:47:00.003+08:00

Yesterday started off with me missing the morning rounds for the 3rd week in a row... I have been so lazy in going to the morning rounds lately. Rather spend my time studying in room or watch movie and surf the net. The aura of laziness has ensnared me since the week of holiday. I was looking forward for a full free day, until at night at least, to do my case report or study a bit since end posting exam was just next week. Nevertheless, the best laid plans was burnt to soot as i soon received a message saying that a replacement class will be held that afternoon. And i was one of the person doing the short-case presentation. I was half excited and half worried. Excited as its one chance to practice like in the exams, but worried for my lack of knowledge. For some obvious reasons, my self confidence has been running low ever since i entered medical school except for some occasional boost.
By around noon(basically just an hour after i woke up XD), i was hungry and was really tempted to make a call to McD for a delivery. However, i decided against the temptation and ate bread and drank a small box of milk instead. Munching on my bread, i also started to surf the net for some news regarding the red hot MCA. CSL and OTK aint my favourite person, but its such a joy watching them tear each other apart. In-fighting is such a typical prelude of a collapse of a dynasty or era or watever u wana call it. When i finished, it was around 1 oclock. I wanted to do my report, but with 230pm(the time for the class) looming, i feel i would be doing it half heartedly and went to watch an episode of CSI instead. Darn lazy bug won again. Its 2-0 to the lazy bug.
As i was about to step out of my room to go to the class, i received another message saying the class was postponed again to the following morning. Dang! Another sudden change of event. As I told my friend about the cancelled class, we decided to order McD for lunch. So much for resisting temptation. The delivery reached around 330pm. By that time, I have already finished one part of my report. As the time was neither lunch time nor dinner time, i decided that tis would be my 'luch-ner'. I soon came to regret it when i went to play football in the evening. My whole stomach was full of food. It was so hard for my feet to carry my extra heavy body around, it was much more harder when there was food. Playing football in my campus nowadays is darn hard as there simply isnt much of us chinese playing. The most we could get was around 10 people. Too many Aces aka bigcards around i guess. lolz. Eventually, we had to join the indians to play for the day as there were only 4 of us. It was so frustrating playing with people who just cant appreciate ur contribution. Scoring a goal was the only thing i could do to show a freaking fella who keeps on shouting at me and boy was i glad i scored a goal. Nah, eat that!
After bathing and resting a bit, I went to the hospital for the night's teaching. This was supposed to be done in this afternoon as well but was delayed as the doctor wasnt free. My frend B and SC was supposed to be presenting short cases for this session. By the time the class started, B was still nowhere to be seen. According to his sms, he was in a toilet somewhere, suffering from stomach ache. He has had a long history of stomach ache when he is at the ward. Sometimes i worry if he has any serious illness. Anyway, i took his place to present the short case instead.(he is suppose to take my place for the short case tmr morning, but we ll see...XD...no more stomach ache i hope.fingers crossed.) The doctor choose a case for me, and i was sweating my guts out when he told me to perform a neurological examination of the legs. I immediately remember joking with my roomate the day before saying that i might be so unlucky to get the examination for the legs. Turns out, this is exactly the topic i was saying. Never joke around at night man! And due to lack of practice, even though i knew what i nid to check for, i couldnt really do it. Added with my total nervousness, it turned out to be catastrophic. >.< Yeeshhhhh! Nevertheless, i was glad i took B's place. I would rather the mistakes happening now rather than during the exams. haha. Which reminds me, the FB lucky meter told me i was 26% lucky today... Perharps it was rite?lolz

And not to forget, Happy birthday dad!

So much to study~

2009-10-14T01:26:00.014+08:00

Its already mid October. I am at the end of my third posting with only 4 more to go... I used to complain a lot that i nid to study too much notes. But obviously, things can go much much worse...and here i m, stuck with so many books. Worst part is, i have to read most of them>.< My cupboard full of books. Its just by the windows...

My study table which is a total mess with all the books and papers and pens and the other cupboard of books just above the table...
Even my computer table is fully loaded with books...(and a necktie too...lolz)should be called the book table instead.>.< And this is the stack of books which ended under the bed coz i m using them so much lately i was lazy to put them back in the cupboard, and they say the scariest thing under ur bed is the boggy man...Yikes!

Holiday ending

2009-09-26T02:39:00.003+08:00

Tomorrow is the last day of the raya holiday. It really flew by. When the time is so enjoyable, i just can't get enough of it. With the return to the campus, my struggle for PRO 3 will have to begin. On the other hand, there is some other little assignment of 'Titan Rose' that i will have to take care of. Its a new server of the popular online game 'rush on seven episodes'. Hopefully, i will get to study effectively while also enjoying myself with this excellent game. This will be enough to make my day^^

极品与劣品

2009-09-05T10:31:00.003+08:00

Lately, I have been posted at Besut hospital for my district posting. According to my friends, this posting should be quite relaxing, which is quite true apart from some glitch that happened during our time here. The things we do here are kinda practical apart from the lectures given by the supporting units. I can't seem to see the importance of those knowledge they intend to give us via the lectures with our career. Worst of all, all the information thought to us weren't really that big of a deal as most of it was just common knowledge. Somehow, a few of us just ignored the lectures completely.>.<

From my time in this posting, I noticed certain things. First of all, I now realize why our general population DO NOT want to participate in talks held by the ministry. The speakers are sometimes ridiculous(though there are exception to this point, who did an excellent job). Most of them are just ignorant. They spend hours and hours talking, never getting near the main point. Instead, they keep on hitting around the bushes and talk about irrelevant things here and there. In psychiatric, we refers this as circumference thought. Round and round the main point and yet never reach the actual point.

Secondly, I can only say that its really hard to dislike a person. However, I think I found one soul that makes me feel extremely surprised that it can still survive here till the present day. I mean, we can only be selfish to a certain degree. But, this particular person, is the master of selling all fishes. Like being selfish isn't enough, that person have the gut to accuse other people of being selfish. Attention seeking, pityful behaviour of it really irks me to the fullest. The title of drama queen seriously have to be given to that particular person. Tears, emo behaviour, all have been used to get attention. One more thing is about the person's questions. Asking questions in classes are extremely beneficial, provided, you use ur common sense. Don't ask useless question la duh...so darn selfish! Cis!

Last but not least, during the time of this posting, our group leader seems to be so incapable. Everything also can't clarify properly. Time of class, time the bus will be reaching everything also wait till the very last minute only tell. Then, when telling someone, she assumes the whole group will know already. What is this man? Show some responsibility la. ish....

Past...

2009-09-05T03:02:00.002+08:00

Its been a while...
Lately, i've been kinda sentimental i would say. Suddenly refreshing memories of the past. Thinking of what had happened, what i have done and what i have not. Certain memories makes me miss those old days a lot. Certain memories just cast doubts on my self confidence.
Thinking back, there seems to be some regrets on things that I could've done then. But, those were not the ones that hurt most. Instead, it was those things that I was powerless to do that hurt the most...Being powerless to do something, the feeling is such dreadful, its like a powerful vortex sucking all the air around you, suffocating you. What a scary feeling...

My god!!! Don't show me your stupidity!Quote roastme

2009-08-14T15:18:00.006+08:00

RTM reporter Eliani Mazlan, 26, who took the witness stand on the third day of Karpal’s sedition trial, was cross-examination by Jagdeep Singh Deo.

Jagdeep: Do you know which party is Karpal Singh from?

Eliani : I am not sure.

Karpal who was also present, could not help smiling in amusement when she said that.

_______________________________________________________________

Jagdeep: At page four, paragraph two of the video transcript, Karpal said: “In fact, I’ve stated very clearly that ‘we’ will sue the Sultan together with the new State Government as defendants if they persist. Are you sure? Karpal said he would sue the Sultan? What does it say?

Eliani: We.

Jagdeep: It is not I.

Eliani: But it could mean himself.

Jagdeep: We could mean I? Is that what you are trying to say? What was said in the transcript?

Eliani: We.

Jagdeep: So you agree that ‘we’ is not ‘I’?

Eliani: Yes.

Jagdeep: You agree that your understanding is completely a misunderstanding?

Eliani: I am not sure.

from http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2009/8/14/nation/20090814141647&sec=nation

The short section above was taken from the Star newspaper over Karpal Singh's sedition trial. Its just unbelievable that our news reporters are so ignorant towards our own society. How can this people report the happenings around us when they themselves don't even know who's who and what's happening? This incidence completely shows the incompetence of some of the people whom we trust to deliver the daily happenings. They don't know the obvious facts, they can't understand statements and they manipulate statements. 'I' and 'we' are replaceble? As my dear teacher once said, 'My god! Don't show me your stupidity!'

here's one other from the malaysian insider...

Utusan Malaysia reporter Mohd Nizam was the one involved this time.

Mohd Nizam was questioned earlier by the deputy public prosecutor Azlina Rasdi.

Azlina had asked Mohd Nizam to tell the court who was at the press conference as well as where it was held, before requesting the reporter read the press release provided.

She also asked him to summarize the contents to the court.

Mohd Nizam: “If the Sultan still wants to pick Zambry as mentri besar then Pakatan Rakyat government has no choice but to take legal action.”

He added that after the press conference there was a question and answer session. He told the court that a reporter asked Karpal if he would be suing the sultan.

“Karpal said yes,” Nizam said in his testimony which was later challenged by the defence.

During cross-examination, Jagdeep had asked the 38-year-old reporter: “Do you agree that his (Karpal) view on the constitution is sought after?”

Mohd Nizam: “I am not sure.”

Jagdeep: “Do you agree that he (Karpal) is known as a smart laywer?”

Mohd Nizam: “I am not sure.”

Jagdeep: “If you still do not know after eight years working then you should start doing your work properly.”

Jagdeep then proceeded to ask him if he understood the press release since it was in English.

Mohd Nizam: “I only understand it in general and not thoroughly.”

Jagdeep then asked the reporter if he agreed that what was said in the press conference was only an opinion of the constitutional crisis in Perak.

“I only report and do not give opinion,” Mohd Nizam replied.

The answer appeared to irritate Jagdeep who accused Mohd Nizam of being insincere.

Jagdeep then told Mohd Nizam to read part of the press release to the court.

Mohd Nizam: “Although the orders have been confirmed by the Sultan. If the decision is ultra vires then the decision can be adjudicated by the court.”

Jagdeep then asked Nizam to explain what ultra vires means to the court.

Nizam looking confused and replied: “To insult.”

Jagdeep then told Mohd Nizam that his misunderstanding of the word had caused chaos in the country because the word actually means “beyond the powers”.

Mohd Nizam was then asked what questions were thrown at Karpal during the press conference.

Nizam explained that reporters wanted to clarify if Karpal meant that he was going to bring the Sultan to court.

“So do you agree that Karpal did not say that he will sue?” Jagdeep asked.

“Agree,” Nizam replied.

Oh my farking gawd...can Utusan's news be trusted at all???RTM oso got reporter like tis! This calls for a SCREENING man...Ignorance is just not allowed in the news sector, stupidity is even worst! Roastme pls roast them!!!

*Forgive my language...this ignorant bastards really annoys me to the spine...

Outbreak?!

2009-08-10T12:30:00.001+08:00

applePie has juz received news that he doesn't nid to go to kampung today... but then, wat will happen to the district posting? now completely blur about wats going to happen next~~

Another adventure

2009-08-10T01:11:00.004+08:00

Later today, I will be off to Besut for my district posting. Should be something quite fun to look forward to. Apart from some personel problems, its expected to be a busy yet interesting times ahead. A trip to Pulau Perhentian seems to be on the books but not really sure will it be carried out. Its been quite a long time since I have gone travelling away from the comforts of my home in Pg or away from my campus. It's said that there will be an excellent connection at the hostels at the district hospital. Wonder if that's true... Gonna use it to the maximum if able XD But then again, with my hardisc 6 feet under, I wonder if I can stock enought movie for the rest of my final year. haha.

H1N1 has been really rampant lately. People are starting to die here and there. Numbers increasing everyday very significantly. However, certain measures carried out seems pretty controversial. With the current handling of the problem by our ministry of health, its kinda hard to see this danger resolve. Our campus has even decided to meet all of us in the Dewan Utama at 9am later. Heard its for a talk on H1N1. Wonder if the decision to gather the whole population of the campus wise considering that there are outbreaks in the campus lately. I somehow feel pretty certain that this move will just escalate the matter and cause our campus to temporary shut down in the very very near future. Maybe then I can have my holiday...XD

Although annoyed by certain individuals lately, i feel kinda comfortable in the condition i am in currently. Life is very enjoyable now with the amount of workload and play in a just nice condition. Too bad all this isn't gonna last. In 10 months, all this will be gone. Studies will end, friends will be leaving to pursuit each other's career. Thinking about it really makes the heart feel kinda soury. Time moves really fast, too fast to me to appreciate every thing that I have or had...

Hmph...

2009-08-06T09:21:00.004+08:00

Lately, some happening around me are really making me very 'emotional unstable'. For one, our doctor, who is really a good man in truth, seems unable to understand his students. His intentions are good, but yet, his approached are less than acceptable. He can easily forget what he told us one day ago and starts to blame us on this and on that. He doesn't care if you have other classes or seminars but when he want to see you, you must be there. He likes to tell you the time of his class and expect you to be early while he comes crawling in after 2 hours. Dicipline, he says is extremely important. Well, that is obviously not seen in you my dear sir.

Another thing is that, I realize that our group isn't even as co-operative too. After discussion with the whole group and reaching a decision, there are individuals that just ignored the decisions and take their own path to do things. If you can't accept the decision, please say so. Don't do things that is beneficial to yourself and will cause trouble for others. You are totally ignorant you stupid girl! You have stood in my way once, and you stood in my way again. One more time and you're history!

Some people likes to act cute and play dumb. Furthermore, they are selfish in learning while expecting others to treat them generously. Responsibility is another thing that the person seriously lack. Please man, be normal a bit! Your histrionic personality just makes me hope that you end up in a psychiatric ward.

Working alongside this kind of people is really an exercise for my heart. And its full time too! Darn...

Unpredictable ending

2009-07-28T20:35:00.002+08:00

Haiz...People say life is terribly unpredictable. Any life can be taken away at any moment. Any effort can be written off any time. Anything can be twisted in any possible way. 1 month, it isn't long enough to build a career, but it sure is enough to build certain things....end of story?or more to come?

Curious

2009-07-24T05:01:00.001+08:00

Sometimes I wonder, if given a choice, would you choose a person who loves you more or a person whom you love more to be your spouse? and why?

2009-07-23T22:05:00.003+08:00

3 weeks and one posting gone. Moving across the street from the A & E to the anesthetic department. Another short posting. Time flies around here, people don't even walk anymore, they FLY, yes FLY. Things move faster than they usually do. Log books, reports, presentations stack up sooner than you even get to open ur mouth to complain. Even weekends seems shorter than they are, all used up to heal up the tired body for another week's struggle. but then again, there is always time for some snooker, some dota, some football and volleyball.kekeke.Another 9 more postings and that's it for me...huhuhu, gan chiong~ weeee~

女人的天敌

2009-07-17T14:00:00.002+08:00

有人说，‘女人的天敌是时间。’
我说，‘女人的天敌是男人。’
时间，再美的样貌都可以无情的摧残，
但是，美丽的内在，再多的时间，
都无法被它消磨去。
同样的，再深的伤痕它都可以帮你复原。
男人就不同了。
一个男人，可以让女人高兴,幸福，
也可以让她伤痕累累，
让她泪流满面，
让她的生活没有色彩，只有黑色。
男人啊，对女人好点吧！

Ambulance and resuscitation

2009-07-16T16:38:00.003+08:00

2 days ago, when i went for oncall, I had an indifferent encounter. There was actually a call for the ambulance. The exciting thing was that i get to follow along. So, without thinking much, with my face mask on, i hopped onto the ambulance. At first, I was kinda worried if I would be suffering from motion sickness as in my mind, ambulance 'fly' on the roads. Furthermore, there is no seatbelt at the back seat. To my amazement, the ambulance seems to be 'crawling' instead. I think the ambulance might have gone so much faster if I were the one on the wheel.Lolz. the only difference between the ambulance driver and me is, I cant drive pass a red light. >.<

I was suffering from fever that day, but i went oncall anyway. I was also coughing so the face mask was on me all the time when I was in the hospital. I had no idea where we were going and what case we were tending to. We headed into a small kampung and stopped by a wooden house with lots of people crowding inside. When we reached the patient's side, he was unconcious with an intravenous line on his hand. After some history taking by the doctor, I realized that the patient had tuberculosis. TB!!! and he was an intravenous drug user, meaning, there is a high chance he is HIV positive. Waaaaa!!! From that moment onwards, I was extremely careful not to take of my mask. I dun wan to catch his TB bugs when I myself is weak.lol. The patient was later sent to Hospital Kota Bahru then we went back to USM. All in all, it was a kinda different experience.

On a sidenote, my economical status really needs some resuscitation after spending so much on books and a new printer. T_T

Food food food...

2009-07-11T04:42:00.018+08:00

As I have come to learn, Penang is really a heaven for food lovers, especially when I came back to USM. Had a few food trips during the holiday including a buffet session at the hotel beside one-stop(forgot the name zzz...) and also the buffet at redbox during Kid's birthday. But the trip to tonki bento seems to be one of the best...This is the outlook of the shop. Its just a regular house-turned-shop from the outside. Its located in Pulau Tikus by the way and NO, there isn't a lot of rats there!

This is the what we can see in the entrance. On the left on the entrance, there are some decorations like the japanese style clothes and some plants and drawings. On the right, there is the counter and also a small manga booth which is quickly ransacked by Meeku, Panda and lengzai Kid(seriously, there is proof- http://panda-chama.blogspot.com/2009/07/yam-yam-and-jerry-lee.html). lolz
While waiting for the food, meeku spent his time with the manga from the booth while Kid and Panda had a discussion on fan.hahahaha
This is the inner part of tonki. Its not a really big restaurant but the interior design is quite unique. Each of the table are divide with a divider. U'll have privacy while u dine.(especially good for those who have smudges all over the face after meals...kekeke)
This happens to be the appetizer... erm...I can only comment that its quite nice, coz i have completely no idea what it is! XD
Yay, and here comes the main dish! Oh, made me suddenly feel hungry nw pulak...>.<
The main dish consists of 2 pieces of grilled salmon, 2 pieces of orange, a small portion of teriyaki chicken, some salad and rice. All for only RM19.90! Extremely worth it i say!(dai dou lak fu...) Sweet! Weee~~~~
And here is the soft shelled crab which Meeku has treated us^^ extremely tasty! Arigatone Meeku-kun!

Thats it for the trip to tonki. Wonder when will i get back there again. Thinking about it makes me drool~~~ Better get my breakfast first!

p/s: can anyone tell me when is bon odori?

ECG made easy...My version-02(for emergency setting)

2009-07-09T14:32:00.016+08:00

First degree heart block
In this situation, there will be prolong PR interval(more than 3 small squares in a 25mm/sec setting). The rhythm is regular. This is caused by a block in the conduction at the AV node.

Second degree heart block-Mobitz type I
This occurs when there is progressive slowing at the AV node. The PR interval will be progressively lengthening followed by a disappearing QRS complex, meaning a P wave without a QRS complex.

Second degree heart block- Mobitz type II
One or more QRS complex are dropped with the PR intervals remaining equal.

Third degree heart block
Occurs when there is complete blockage of impulse at the AV junction or at the common bundle branch.(sometimes at bilateral bundle branch as well). The RR intervals and the P wave intervals are regular. However, the PR interval are chaotic and irregular. Basically, the P wave and R wave are like from 2 different strips.

Premature ventricular contraction
This occurs due to increase automaticity of the ventricular walls or sometimes due to reentry phenomena. The QRS complex comes earlier than expected and is often a wide complex due to its ventricular origin. A PVC that comes in every second complex is a ventricular bigemini while ventricular trigemini is when it comes in every third complex.

Idioventricular
The heart rate is around 20-40bpm. There is absence of P wave and QRS complex is widened. Idioventricular rhythm occurs when SA and AV node are not firing properly or firing slower than the ventricular pace maker.

Torsade de Pointes
It is paroxysmal(starting and stopping suddenly). The QRS complex will be wide and bizzare. Hallmark of this rhythm is the upward and downward deflection of the QRS complexes around the baseline. The term Torsade de Pointes means "twisting about the points".

Ventricular tachycardia
The rate is extremely high ranging from 100 to 250 bpm. QRS complex is wide and bizzare. Can intervene by giving amiodarone or lidocaine or cardioversion. Must be manage properly as it can soon deteriorates to ventricular fibrillation. Pulseless ventricular tachycardia requires defibrillation.

Ventricular fibrillation
VF is a chaotic rhythm originating from the ventricles resulting in no cardiac output. Requires immediate defibrillation and ACLS protocols.

Asystole/Ventricular standstill
Occurs when there is no more electrical activity in the heart. When this occurs, remember to increase the magnification of the cardiac monitoring to exclude fine ventricular fibrillation.

Premature junctional contraction
PJC arises from irritable focus at the AV junction. Characteristic includes absent or inverted P wave and also a shortened PR interval.

Junctional rhythm/junctional escape rhythm
The junctional rhythm occurs when the impulse originates from the AV junction-AV node and the bundle of His. The rate of the junctional rhythm is about 40-60 bpm. There will b absence of P wave or an inverted P wave. Normally has narrow QRS complex.

Accelerated junctional rhythm
Junctional rhythm with a rate of more than 60 bpm but less than 100 bpm.

Junctional tachycardia
Junctional rhythm with a rate of more than 100bpm.

Any mistakes please inform me.^^

ECG made easy...My version-01(for emergency setting)

2009-07-09T13:31:00.018+08:00

Here's some short notes on some common ECG patterns...

Normal sinus rhythm
Rate of between 60-100 bpm(beats per minute)
Every QRS complex is preceded by a P wave and every P wave must be followed by a QRS.

Sinus tachycardia
Rate of more than 100 bpm in a normal adult but often it is limited below 150bpm. Results from sympathetic activation(ie due to pain, fever, hypovolemia)

Sinus bradycardia
Rate of less than 60 bpm in a normal adult. Athletes may constantly be in sinus bradycardia as they have better stroke volume.

Sinus arrhythmia
The rhythm is regularly irregular, with the rate increasing on inspiration and decreasing on expiration. This is commonly seen in children and less common in adults. Often, it is benign.

Sinus exit block/sinoatrial block
This results when the impulse from the sinoatrial(SA) node is block and does not depolarizes the atrium. Although there SA node is firing at the usual rate, the impulses are not passed on. There will be pauses equivalent to multiple P-P intervals.

Sinus pause/sinus arrest
This is resulted when the SA node fails to fire. The difference from sinus exit block is that the pause is normally not equivalent to multiple P-P intervals.
Premature atrial contraction(PAC)
PAC occurs when there is a premature firing from the SA node. This is due to increase irritability of the atria resulting in increased automaticity. Since the SA node firing is earlier, the complex comes earlier. Observe that in the strip, the P wave comes before the dissolution of the T wave. This causes the P wave to become abnormal(biphasic, raised, flattened...). A normal QRS complex(narrow QRS as it originates from the atria) follows the P wave.

Atrial Tachycardia
Often have a rate of between 170 to 230 bpm. The narrow QRS complex shows that it is supraventricular in origin and the rate differentiates it from sinus tachycardia.

Atrial fibrillation
Is a irregularly irregular rhythm. The chaotic rhythm and the absence of P wave is the hallmark of this dysrhythmia.

Atrial flutter
This results from an reentry circuit within the atria at a rate of 250-350. This dysrhythmia is recognized by the sawtooth appearance of the baseline.

Wolf-Parkinson-White(WPW) syndrome
In this condition, there will be presence of delta wave at the foot of the QRS complex. The delta wave is the hallmark of WPW.

Review of Me

2009-07-09T13:12:00.003+08:00

Long time ago... I created a list of targets for myself. Lets see how I've fared.
Here's the list:
1. To finish the medical course with the minimum time, which is 5 years without the need of repeating.(so far so good)
2. To at least get an A for once during the period of my life as a medical student.(yay, target achieved!! last year...wakakaka)
3. To learn scuba diving(no sign of achieving this yet...time oso dun hv for nw T_T)
4. To travel to
a)Australia
b)Singapore
c)England
d)Italy
e)Japan(another one yet to be achieved...but am planning for back packing in europe after finals next year, so hopefully will have some improvement)
5. To be able to drop my weight to around 75kg and maintain it. (This one is a total disaster. I got lost and went the other way around >.< 90++kg and still counting...swt)
6. To be a decent person. ( decent is the opposite of me for now)
7. To create a blog and maintain it.(yay, obviously still doing well)
8. To own a beautiful house with a seaside view.(cant even buy 1 meter square of land for now)
9. To be a millionaire by the age of 40.(23 already and still dependant on 'PaMa' enterprise)
10. To assemble a desktop from parts.(nid money...>.< most prob first thing to do when i earn my first month of salary)

Yikes...2/10...swt.... fail miserably.

Adding on another few objectives:
11. To be more than just an average student.
12.To start to keep photos of events in life...otherwise when i lost my memory, that's it for me.lolz
13.To improve dota-ing skills to yikoko-ish level.haha
14.To take the basic life support and advance cardiac life support course before i start to work.
15.To study a few different language.
16.To improve my stamina and have one more shot at this years futsal tournament.(i wan better than to reach the last 8 >.<)
17.To work back in Penang.
18.To improve my way of thinking. Think fast think critical and act. No more think without actions.

No trip for me...

2009-07-09T00:44:00.002+08:00

A trip has finally been planned for this sat, sun and monday...to langkawi... and the best part IS-----teng teng teng teng....I CAN'T GO!!! After hoping for a trip for such a long~ time(i can feel my neck becoming longer). Things like tis seriously dents my interest in studying( and there wasn't much to begin with).
No trip .....Get many many photos back and show me k guys? erm.... on second thought, maybe that's not such a good idea. Take many many photos, but DUN show me is better i think...haiz. damn u books!!!!

Beginning of the end

2009-07-07T19:53:00.002+08:00

My final year(hopefully there won't be a six month extension) has officially started. With it comes all the ward rounds, the on calls , seminars other practical sessions. It has just been 3 days into the new semester, but there is a sense of ending as exams are really not that far away. 9 months and thats it. Still missing life in Penang, I have to drag myself out of bed everyday around 7 oclock in the morning. By the time i reach my room(which luckily is kinda comfortable after my personal touch here and there, weeeee....), i am completely worn out. But then again, being me, however worn out i might be, there must be games. I think my motto should be ' game is essential for life'.

Finally the broadband issue reached a conclusion with me cancelling the registration with the tesco branch in KB and gone for the KB mall branch instead. The tesco branch has really been such a nuisace with a poor attitude and making broken promise with every breath that they have. Its so annoying to be dealing with this guys(to be precise, its a few gals...>.<)

For today, I have just had my session in first aid. Not the first time already, but the guidelines for basic life support really do change fast(4 yearly). Just only realised that medical personales have to take the courses at their own time yesterday. Haiz... they should say earlier ma, then i can spend my holiday taking these courses instead T_T. Nevermind la, can do anything bout it now... Weighing my options on whether to go back this weekend or not. Feeling like going home and get a new specs made, but then again...2 days how to get my specs done wor...haiz...

P/S: yikoko says that a new rose server which is the titanRose is coming up soon with all the quests and gears and gems...wee~

When the perfect gal meets the perfect guy-01

2009-07-04T03:03:00.002+08:00

Sean was waiting for the bus heading towards town as he prepares his first day at work. Standing at 5 feet 7 inches high, Sean was a medium built guy. His well combed hair along with the dark frame glasses on his face gave him a nerdy look. Everything was in place and he was extremely excited to be going in for work in his dream company. He has been hoping to land the job for a long time since his interview 2 months ago. Finally the letter arrived last weekend asking him to fill in the vacancy left by a senior employee who had retired. With his heart pumping hard and hands trembling slightly, he went on board of the bus.

"Wonder what will happen today? What will my colleagues be like? Will I have my own cubicle?" Questions after questions arise in the highly imaginative mind of his. He hadn't pay much attention when a lady in her early 20s came in and sat beside him. He had a glance of her but then soon got lost deep in his thought again. When the bus stopped at KL central, Sean got off and sped towards the direction of the monorail. Suddenly, he realized that the face that had appeared before him was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't actually recall why. Nevertheless, he was almost late for work already. He just swept the thought out of his mind and continued forward into the monorail.

Reaching at the office, Sean took a look at his watch. "825am. 5 minutes early, luckily I am not late for my first day at work.", he thought to himself. Taking a deep breath, he took then handle of the door and gave it a push. The office was well furnished, with all the instruments and equipments put well in place. The floor was laid was a grey carpet with a few spots on it, possibly as a result of the coffee spilled on it occasionally. Sean walked towards the secretary desk and tried to catch the attention of young secretary who was busy on the phone as well as on her desktop. Upon seeing Sean, the secretary mouthed,' he's waiting for you inside.' to him. Sean understood and walked towards the office beside the desk. He knocked and entered after there was answer from within.

"Good morning Mr Lee. I am Sean Chew. I have received a letter asking me to report for work here today."
"Ahhh, yes yes, Sean. Come, have a seat. Celine will be right in to bring you to your seat and give you your assignments. "

To be continued...

After watching so many nigahiga videos, I must say i am quite enjoying his videos. Copying his style, i would like to write out a script base on the mould of the nigahiga's 'how to be....' video.

*Computer sound: Owning!!!*
A: No... why am i feeding again?!
B: Damn, we lost coz u fed too much.*starts throwing punches at A'
A: ouch , ouch!!!

Mysterious sound: Hey you!
A: Who? Me?
Mysterious sound: Yes you!
A: My Dota wargod?
Mysterious sound: Tired of getting bullied in dota?*A nods* Tired of the never ending godlike ultra feeding spree?*A nods again* How to be a dota pro is the dvd for u!
*throws dvd to A, A catches, throws another at A and A falls to the ground*
Mysterious sound: This dvd come with 2 of ur very own personal trainers.

C: Hello, my name is jugger-yunero-tauren-lunatinker-feeder-pucky-pro
D: Hello, my name is... Gab

C&D: Ever dream of being a pro in dota? dream no more. Being a pro dota is as easy as it gets. Just follow the following laws and u will be an instant hit in the dota society.

C: lesson one, a pro dota kaki must dota all the time of the day, no matter the time. Food, work and sleep are all a waste of time.
*shows someone dota even in the toilet, when the boss is not looking, using leg to dota when he is sleeping, and dota in the room while days turn into nite'

C: lesson two, play with other dota kaki who are noobier than u. Remember, playing with noobs makes u feel so pro!
*C: yo, s'up man? lets dota to9 la... D: yeah sure.
C: (whisper) he is so noob he cnt even name one hero in the game. Items oso duno hw to buy....
Shows C playing with D, and the computer says 'owning'.
C: Yesh, I pawned you!!*

C: lesson three, never use the shortkeys for skills as it makes ur mouse controlling hand slow. Practice using ur mouse to click the skill and cast it as soon as u can.

D:If u follow all our advice, it shld b sth like tis...

*"Owning" from computer.

Irony

2009-07-03T19:41:00.003+08:00

Lately, I've been trying to get online via the Celcom broadband. As I have just recently changed my handset, I have to try to figure out how to set up the phone as a modem. Ironically, the net is the place I can have the information. So, in order to get online, I have to get some information for the net first,cool!

情歌MV

2009-07-03T07:20:00.003+08:00

今天，看见这一段MTV之后，感触良多。回忆起了好多好多，心里的感觉好像被融化的冰一样，而且还有一点酸酸的呢。等待的‘情歌’，已经出现了吗?突然想起来，两人相见到相爱，再从相爱到一起走人生的旅程，是非常不容易的。他或她，是经过了多么多的考验，都还陪在自己的身边。不但同甘，而且共苦。爱一个人，不是一定要拥有她。但当有了她，要更珍惜，不要得过且过。能有你的陪伴真得谢谢你哦！

P/S:Thanx orange for the introduction of this nice song^^

29th June-Day 1 back to Kelantan...
Today, after sleeping at 3 something in the morning, I woke up around 7am. After breakfast with my dad, he fetched me home. I saw some aunties who were my mum's friends and went by to say hello and had a little chit chat. After that, when I went home, I noticed one thing. I left my keys on my dad's car!!! In the end, had to call him back and take the keys from him. Hopefully din make him late for work.haha. After that, on the journey to KB, i drove ard 3 hrs of the journey. Unbelievable eh, especially after sleeping for a mere 4 hours. haha. shhhh, dun tell my frend ok? after we changed driver, i immediately started to 'fish'. By the time i reached my friend's house in KB, i think that i have caught a few bucket loads of fishes already.haha. Went and met some frends then yamcha for the day. we did went to tesco and i reregistered for the student package of broadband. went home and stare at the simcard for a long time hoping that i can use it soon. but then, after a few tries setting up, without any signs of success, i went to bed.

30th June-Day 2 back to Kelantan...
Today, slept till ard 12pm... really lazy and tiring. also, i was feeling rather down as i have to restart life without my reliable gangs. Miss you guys so much man!!! furthermore, tis is the 2nd day i hv been deprieved of internet access. I got a call from my dad saying that celcom called him. It seems that i have been blacklisted by celcom as i have not paid my balance for the last account of broadband. The amount i owed was RM4.40. swt...So, in the end, i went back to tesco and payed the balance. according to the worker there, the case was closed and i shld b able to use the net by the next day. so, i went back home looking fwd for the next day. I also went Chiang Mai restaurant for dinner tat day to celebrate my gf's belated bday. enjoyed the keng som fish, the fried kangkung and the pandan chicken. At nite, it was a super duper nice nite...after the dota session in the afternoon, we continued at nite. Til 5am...haha

1st July-Day 3 back to Kelantan...
Bibipu have reached kelantan!!! i din manage to join the others to fetch him as i was laying unconcious at the bed until 1pm. After that, went out again and help mel take her things to her house as well as dota a bit. Cleaned mel's house then at nite went to help mel to pack her home. supper with bibipu till 3am in the morning.nth much today.

2nd July-Day 4 back to Kelantan...Today
today slept til 11 sth. woke up, bath and went china town for lunch. After that, went to bibipu n green bear's house to help a bit cleaning their house. Went celcom for the broadband prob. according to them i nid to contact the providers at tesco. so, i called the number they gave me. and i was asked to go to tesco to get my money back as the package i wanted was unavailable already. when i reached tesco, i was told, that my form was with celcom now...ish...and that there is a chance my registration can go through. they ask me to wait for another day before they call to confirm if the registration is void or not. swt lo....then, to9, finally, i can online and tis was the end product.haha. dota one game. hopefully life will improve a lot more...

The return of the class...T_T

2009-06-29T00:57:00.003+08:00

Tmr marks the end of my stay in penang for this holiday. Hopefully will have a safe trip back. It was a wonderful holiday. Had so much fun with all my gang as well as meeting up with all good frends from matric, from secondary school, and also from primary school. Learn so much snooker from master pink.(LOLZ). Pool, bowling, snooker, rose, dota, yamcha and other outing activities has been so enjoyable and became part of my life. Have to say goodbye to them all. As well as cipong, lulu, gab, WJ, Dar. Orange , i will see u bc in the campus soon. muahahaha...

Highlight of this holiday was the apartment stay. Enjoyed the games and the booze. Hope can do it again soon. And also, the primary school gathering after such a long time. The last one shld b at least 3-4 years ago edi. Miss all of you!!!

Too bad all well doesnt necessarily ends well. The ending was kinda anticlimatic as some incident occurred with bad moods all over.(not me!) Hope you guys will feel better la tmr! Smile and be happy! You only go through life once you noe? so enjoy!

Problems

2009-06-28T03:06:00.003+08:00

Sometimes, some people are just very depressed that they face a snag in their lives. From trouble in studying, family, relationships and maybe work. When the face problems, they end up unmotivated, uninspired and nonfunctional.

Problems in our everyday live is so common. We should be used to it, as we all grow from each of the problem we encounter. These are the experience that shape our personality.

Face problems without fever. Take each step in your stride. There is nothing that cant be solved. Optimism rulez!!!

When you are not thinking right...

2009-06-25T13:38:00.003+08:00

Our mind and actions are one. When a person doesn't think straight, he acts peculiarly. That's why, drunk people talk and do things that aren't themselves. Drunken person doesn't think, they just do what they want. In normal circumstances, we are just able to control our desire and our passion for things. Once the control is gone, its like releasing the chain of a mad dog and letting it round around- you end up hurting people and yourself.

We suppress our desire especially the 7 sins("Lust", "Gluttony", "Greed", "Sloth", "Wrath", "Envy", and "Pride".), at least when people are around i guess. But sometimes, unconsciously, we do let loose this feelings. Although this are so called 'sins', but these are also the things that makes us human, emotional and imperfect. Nevertheless, without these feelings, one would be no more than a machine.

Dreams are a form of our thinking when we are deep in our sleep. In this condition, you let loose of all the desires, all your hopes. In your dreams, what you deeply, secretly desire will come out clearly. In some instance, dreams depicts what is troubling you or what you are thinking of a lot also. Sometimes, only after your dream will you be aware of what you really care about...

Lately, I have been having odd dreams, which itself is very odd as I almost never dream. Dreams itself reminded my of some things which I know I tried to suppress, tried to hide from myself. But unfortunately, sometimes, we are just so vulnerable from our own minds...
Cherish what you have, live life to the fullest, and stay optimistic. Its easier said than done. But well, that's life. You gotta do what you gotta do.lolz

£80million man

2009-06-24T09:56:00.004+08:00

This is a guy worth £80million. Unbelievable... Yes, he is fantastic. But, £80million for one person? That's an obscene price tag for any one man especially under the current economical state. MOST of us won't even see £1million in our checkbooks for our whole live and this guy cost that much. Imagine that. I think I wouldn't even worth Rm100 if I was put on market. >.<
Anyway, this is the compilation of his goals taken from youtube. Adios seniur ronaldo!

D Day

2009-06-24T08:18:00.005+08:00

Hohoho...its finally THE DAY. Tonight, its going to be Transformer night.*drooling* All the robots and megan fox. Really can't wait for it. I think its going to be an anxious wait and I'll be pacing up and down in my living room for the rest of the day...

Autobots versus the decepticons...who will win I wonder? Nah, no nid to wonder, good always win against evil, its just a matter of how they win and the price they pay...

今天的心情。。。是甜甜酸酸的

2009-06-23T17:52:00.003+08:00

今天，下午和贤智一起吃午餐，聊了好多好多，令我想起了在Matric里的点点滴滴。在那里，有好多快乐的时候，但也有一些令人感到不太舒服的回忆。然而，实在是很怀念和朋友一起读书准备考试，一起outing到PMC，一起去买衣服，一起去lab去上课的日子。Matric时期，也应该是我最长到图书馆的一段日子。那时，一方面要和朋友讨论功课，一方面是应为沉迷于Utopia（只有图书馆由电脑可以上网）。H4里留下了好多好多。朋友也好久没见面了，不知道大家都怎样了呢?

Life as it is

2009-06-23T02:41:00.004+08:00

Lately, my daily schedule has been quite routine. Wake up and have breakfast with dad, send him to work, then come how and on my computer(before this I had to go for elective first, but, now its done...), then have lunch with friends, either yikoko and gang or friends who I haven't meet for a long time. Then, in the afternoon, it will be purely sitting in front of computer(games or blogging). Fetch dad at 530pm then nite time, outing with Darien, Yikoko, Pong, Lulu and WJ.

I'm so used to it that I've been hoping that this will be permanent. Lolz. But, hopes and reality are so very different. In a few days time, I might be tossed back into the depths of my books back in Kubang Kerian, with a tormenting time up ahead. Sometimes I wonder, isn't life so wonderful like this? with a job from 8am to 5pm, then outing every nite for food, for pool, for bowling or just stay at home for a few games of DOTA. Rather than that, I will get a 7 days job which has extended duration of working hours, with a pay that people THINKS is high.(its just not worth the effort) Yikes, what have I gotten myself into?! This is bad.

Lolz. Nothing much I can do now. Better enjoy while I can, I have no intention of regreting what I did not do in the future. As for what I have done... ahaha. ~boh huat liao~ Have to take it in my stride. One step at a time. Maybe I will learn to enjoy work and responsibility later in life. haha. Obviously, my mind set has not mature a bit >.<

Love is blind...

2009-06-23T02:23:00.003+08:00

Everyone has love,
no matter how good or how evil one can be,
there is always presence of love...

Love towards money $_$
Love towards work...(siao~)
Love towards doing something...
And not to forget, Love towards someone...

They say love is blind
How so, you might ask...

When you love someone,
your whole world revolves around her.
You are only able to see her,
not as a whole, but only the best of her.
You think of nothing but of her,
waiting for messages, emails,
any bits and pieces of news on her,
Nothing is important to you anymore than her,
apart from her well being and her mood.
her sorrow makes you lose your appetite,
her happiness makes you smile.
You are lost in her world,
as you have lost you sight.

So, love IS blind,
ain't it?
LOLZ

Cabal Dance!! XD

2009-06-19T10:03:00.006+08:00

Lol...wonder if you all still remember the cabal dance when we were playing the game. We have been trying to sync it a few times already. These guys did it perfectly, and the girls even more XD

A not so routine morning...

2009-06-19T08:15:00.002+08:00

Today is the last day where I can actually go to the Penang GH for attachment. I had planned to go originally, in order to sooth my guilt. But, in the end, I waked up quite late and decided to just send my dad to work and come home rotting in from of my computer. Rather than went to the usual spot for breakfast, today, I went to SS for breakfast. On the way home, I was listening to FLY FM. I am not sure why, but an answer seemed to have made me extremely excited. Palpitation ensued. I stopped by the road side and picked up my handphone...and called the radio station, only to have an anticlimatic ending... 'tu tu tu tu' was the only sound I heard. Well, its just my first attempt on calling the radio station. Maybe better luck on Monday, since the prize money is so nearly 20k in cash. So damn tempting. The idea of winning that enormous prize money just seemed to light up the day...

Moving on

2009-06-18T14:43:00.003+08:00

Weeeeee.... My elective posting is officially over! From today onwards, its a true blue holiday. woohoo!! But... for 1 week only, then have to go back to KB already...OMG! Why?!!!!

The new semester is going to start real soon. Normally, after such a long holiday, I would be extremely excited to see the beginning of the new semester. But this time, the holiday is too enjoyable that I hope it doesn't end... The weekly pool session, bowling, yam cha(especially cendui!!!), dota, ROSE, movie days and the apartment stay. Its considered a quite eventful holiday for me even though I did not leave Penang too much. (just the once to Kampar...lolz) Its so nice to spend all the times with a whole gang of friends! Really will terribly, extremely, unbelivably, infinitely miss u guys when i go back! T_T

Returning to campus will mean that I have 9 more months left before my Professional exams in April. Its really nothing to be anticipated. The only good thing is that, it means I'm gonna be out of KB after 10 more months. Weeeeeee....

Science and religion

2009-06-17T23:57:00.002+08:00

Science and religion, this are 2 totally different elements of life. People around us, sometimes are quite extreme over these issues. Some think that religion should be our guide in life, helping us to decide what can and can't we do. Some think that religion irrelevant and science is the only thing what is important in these modern days, thus giving birth to the free thinkers.

In my opinion, all religions have one common goal, which is to guide us in the way of our living and to teach us how to be a good person. In truth, everyone thinks that being a good person is very important. However, what kind of a person is a 'good person'? A man with passion in everything he does? A man who donates every cents that he has ever earn for a better world? A man who sacrifice himself for an evil deed for the greater good? There is no real guidance on this issues. However, from the religion's teachings, I believe that there are teachings touching on these topics. Furthermore, most of the religions originated from a person, who are thought to holy and has all the good moral values and has made sacrifices. Also, I think that religion only came about when science was not that advance then, as a lot of phenomena which were not explained by science were largely credited to religion.

Being a person who is passionate to his/her religion is not a bad thing. Nevertheless, total devotion to God is still a very questionable act to me. I do not quite understand why would a person want to do that yet. Extreme devotion sometimes will cause a person to be distance with their loved ones as they can't understand the reason of the actions. Sometimes, the actions are just slightly over the line.

A few days ago, there was a discussion group on issues regarding Christianity. Although I have not gone to that particular discussion, but it reminded me of my previous discussion with my mum's friend who hasn't come over for bible discussion since she went back to UK. Questions like is there God? If there is, how come he doesn't show himself? If he takes care of all his believers, why are there still Christians suffering from ill fortunes? These questions has been ask again and again, but there were never answers good enough to satisfy me. Whenever I say this, my friends will say, 'come to church with us and you might find your answers there'. I will just answer them with the answer that suits their thinking best, ' nah, maybe its not time yet for me to get my answers' LOL

Science on the other hand, feels more practical to me. People have been trying to explain every single phenomena available. From the smallest viruses to the space which is so enormous and so far 'boundaryless'. Science have time and again proven that certain teachings in the religions are not accurate, which resulted in certain disputes. But, to me, it is more relevant to us. Wonder what do you all think?

Curry Chicken Bun

2009-06-15T19:57:00.016+08:00

Yesterday, as my sister couldn't get a ticket back to Kampar, our whole family had to send her back by car. It was around a 200km drive from Penang to her campus. While we were there, we went to visit a local shop for one of the local products-面包鸡, for me I would call it curry chicken BREAD instead of the curry chicken bun that we can easily get in the dairy stores.
This is the shop that sells the famous curry chicken bread...

This is the shop from inside outside and outside in.LOLZ. actually, they still hv another unit at the side which i accidentally left out...
Apart from the curry chicken bread, they also sell all sorts of biscuits that are popular locally.

Their way of advertising...

And here is the long awaited curry chicken bun!!!

This is how it looks after bringing it out from the box.
Weeeee, open liao.... inside got curry chicken with potatoes and all the curry 'ciap'. Very nice man, if got chance really have to go and try it out!

Here comes the hostel issues again...Lolz.

2009-06-15T15:52:00.003+08:00

Here's what I got from my friend's facebook comments.

LYY New Nurani motto: Take your key..shut up..and leave..

Jackson: then they makan gaji buta
Jackson: I wonder whether this hv smthg to do wif the notorious kak syikin
Tan: huh?? how come??
Winnie: but i heard change to pn sauwana dy, rite? what happen ooo? i was kicked to block B, btw... T-T
Jackson: i heard kak syikin got promoted to HEP admin d.
Tan: dun feel like goin bec usm d =( torturing.....
LYY: Rule num 1: Kenot change rm..
Rule num 2: Kenot choose rm mate..
Rule num 3: Kenot ask who is your rm mate.. Juz wait to be surprised..
Jackson: I bet usmkk hostel admin most probably enjoy & laughing if they c this.
Tan: two words : bian tai 变态
Winnie: who is the rmate also can't ask? siao de...
LYY: Oh yeah.. forgot most important
rule num 4: Top priority for single rm to 5th yr repeat students..
I quote them saying 'Kalo nak confirm dapat single rm senang, u fail tahun 5 u la.. haha'
I think their merit system is like this:...

Fail tahun 5: 100 point(terus dpt bilik)
Sukad pingat emas: 10 point
Pass exam: -10 point (Dah pandai sangat x perlu stay hostel)
Winnie: like that also can??? usm is getting crazier & crazier day by day...
Orange:haiz....now i really hate to go back..
Leong: hey...dat motto seems familiar ler...datz how murni ppl get shooed off in the previous years wif kak syikin in the murni office....
Mel: murni has always enforce the first 3 rules. but rule 4 is sooo awesome. positive reinforcement/ reward ppl to fail

Then there are some of the comments which are too long, i juz take the interesting ones...haha

LYY Oh.. worst nurani management ever!

LYY: Definitely.. No changing rooms.. Not only that.. No choosing roommates.. Even if both got double rooms.. Juz take watever room we are given n shut up.. omg..
Mong: wow....even d al mighty yy oso powerless.....seems lik 'toleransi bukan demonstrasi' is totally irrelavent....
LYY: Haha.. 'demonstrasi' also useless la.. They juz DUN CARE..
Jackson: yes, they dun satisfied wif how bad they did last yr. claimed to made a new record. well done, i'm so proud!
Yong: murni has been practicing that policy all this while la.. u all just got lucky last time only :P
Jackson: omg, this is so stupid. i wonder y hostel management wanna be this stupid ah? to show & prove tat they r actually stupider than how they look?
Mong: if u can persuade tuan haji then it would be better.....bt overheard single rooms given 2 5th year repeats....is tat true?
LYY: Ah Mong.. Yeah wat u heard is true.. Apparently those who is doing remedial have more 'merit' to the desa.. so they all will get single room.. And tuan haji is supporting this new idea of 'take your room key, shaddap and leave'.. Apparently they dont even allow us to know who our rm mate is.. I quote: ' Tak payah tau siapa rm mate.. ofis ni untuk amik kunci bilik sahaja'... Jackson.. regarding tukar suka sama suka im not sure la.. But there is a case where there's this guy who doesnt want to stay in his room.. So he let his fren who got TenTen to stay in his room.. Then the almighty puan salwana somehow found out abt it and force the guy to sleep in surau even though the no one uses the bed.. She said protocol is protocol.. The bed is for the 1st guy and not the 2nd guy.. If the 1st guy dun wan then let it remain empty.. can u bliv dat??
Jackson: omg, wat the heck?!!! She is super stupid to stick to the rule like that, wat a brainless fat lady. I duno y after given apex status, usmkk react more anti their own students, esp hostel admin. this is outrageous!
LYY: Apparently they want to be more professional.. So.. to achieve that they think that when they r less friendly.. they r more professional
Jackson: lol. confirmed stupid.

Weeeeee, now its looking so 'good' to go back. Confirm ciak lat...

A game called 'real life'

2009-06-14T05:17:00.008+08:00

I believe most of us likes to play computer games, especially role playing games. This is because, in role playing games, we feel more in control and whatever we do might affect the outcome of the game. We might be a hero and save the day, we might be the most notorious villain who killed all the innocents(who would want to be that?If its you, please see a psychiatrist), we might be the dictator who conquer the whole world. The more realistic the game is, the higher chance of it becoming a top-seller. So, I want to introduce you all to a new game. The new game is our real life.

Genre: RRPG(real-life role playing game)
Publisher: Papa mama entertainments Developer: Papa Mama Entertainments

Release Date:The Day You were Born
Age: Present day
Reality Factor: Reality
Type: Action,Romance,Fiction(up to you to decide)

This is as realistic as it gets. You go to jail if you do a crime, you get rewards for doing good deeds, and you die if you are old or sick. And best of all, it goes on and on and on...for your whole life! lolz

RM1,800 stashed in beggar's panties

2009-06-13T16:39:00.003+08:00

ALOR STAR: When state Immigration Department officers detained a Myanmar woman found begging on the streets here on Sunday, they were in for a shock.

She was found to have RM1,800 cash hidden in her bra and panties.

It is believed the woman had collected the money in a week of begging in the city.

The woman, in her 40s, was detained in a three-hour crackdown on vagrants and beggars, which started at 9am, near the popular Pekan Rabu market.

State Immigration director Zulfikar Ahmad said the woman did not have valid travel documents and did not try to flee when approached by officers because she thought they wanted to give her money.
Zulfikar said the woman was sent to Belantik Immigration detention centre in Sik.

Thirty-three illegal immigrants from Indonesia and Bangladesh were detained by the department in another operation here on Sunday night.

"We have identified several locations in the city that the illegal immigrants frequent. We will take action soon. Those detained will be sent to Belantik."

Haha...seems like even beggars are richer than I am. Everywhere we go, no matter food courts or tourist spots, as long as there are lots of people, we will definitely see beggars around. For me, everytime they ask for money i will just shake my head and walk away. Especially with those people who seems to be find and healthy and aren't disabled. I actually feel kinda disgusted with these people, not because of them being dirty or what, but its their attitude that disgusts me. Even people who are disabled try their best to be independant, to earn themselves and living. But these people, they try to gain something from doing nothing. Its kinda pityful. And after seeing this news report from the NST, I seriously thinking that there can be a course for the beggars and make it into a profession...bachelor degree of beggarary...swt

Topic: Amenorrhea

2009-06-13T15:29:00.003+08:00

Amenorrhea refers to the absence of menstruation either one or more missed menstrual periods. Basically, there are 2 types, primary and secondary amenorrhea. Primary amenorrhea refers to no menstrual periods by age 16. Secondary amenorrhea occurs when you were previously menstruating, but then stopped having periods. If you're sexually active and otherwise healthy, pregnancy is the most likely reason you've missed a period. The menstruation cycle delay of 2-3 days is normal for most of the women.

Amenorrhea is a sign, not a disease, and seldom results from a serious condition. However, not knowing why menstruation has stopped can be stressful. But once you and your doctor get to the root of the problem, treatment of the underlying condition often resolves amenorrhea.

Reasons for delayed menstruation

There are several reasons for delay in menstruation cycle. Have a quick look at some of the common causes.

Overstress

Hormonal imbalance

Imbalanced diet

Weight loss

Thyroid diseases

Obesity

Depression

Ovulation deficiency

Polycystic ovarian diseases

Coping with delayed menstruation

Avoiding delayed menstruation depends totally on the condition of your body. Your body takes time to adjust to the changes so it causes delay in menstruation. You should try to understand the needs of your body first. The most important thing is that you should have a balanced diet.

Delayed menstruation can also be caused when you make certain changes in your daily routine. This can involve heavy exercise or adopting a diet plan. You should give some time to your body to adapt to these changes instead of going for medication in the initial stage. All you need is patience.

If your menstruation cycle is delayed for three months you should consult your physician. It is more advisable that you treat your delayed menstruation period through Ayurvedic remedies. Avoid taking medicines without doctor's prescription for preventing complications. Staying healthy and fit is the best remedy for avoiding all the menstruation problems.

Any problems just ask ahead...

WHO phase of pandemic alert

2009-06-12T16:13:00.006+08:00

What is pandemic? According to the dictionary, it is a widespread epidemic of a disease.
Then what is epidemic? In epidemiology, an epidemic (from Greek epi- upon + demos people) occurs when new cases of a certain disease occur in a given human population, during a given period, substantially exceed what is "expected," based on recent experience (the number of new cases in the population during a specified period of time is called the "incidence rate"). (An epizootic is the analogous circumstance within an animal population.) In recent usages, the disease is not required to be communicable; examples include cancer or heart disease.(wikipedia)

Ok, so let me explain. When the number of cases of a particular disease increase to a number more than expected of a population, it becomes an epidemic. As for pandemic, it occurs in a large area, either in the whole nation of worldwide involvement.
Pandemic preparedness
In the 2009 revision of the phase descriptions, WHO has retained the use of a six-phased approach for easy incorporation of new recommendations and approaches into existing national preparedness and response plans. The grouping and description of pandemic phases have been revised to make them easier to understand, more precise, and based upon observable phenomena. Phases 1–3 correlate with preparedness, including capacity development and response planning activities, while Phases 4–6 clearly signal the need for response and mitigation efforts. Furthermore, periods after the first pandemic wave are elaborated to facilitate post pandemic recovery activities.
In nature, influenza viruses circulate continuously among animals, especially birds. Even though such viruses might theoretically develop into pandemic viruses, in Phase 1 no viruses circulating among animals have been reported to cause infections in humans.
In Phase 2 an animal influenza virus circulating among domesticated or wild animals is known to have caused infection in humans, and is therefore considered a potential pandemic threat.
In Phase 3, an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus has caused sporadic cases or small clusters of disease in people, but has not resulted in human-to-human transmission sufficient to sustain community-level outbreaks. Limited human-to-human transmission may occur under some circumstances, for example, when there is close contact between an infected person and an unprotected caregiver. However, limited transmission under such restricted circumstances does not indicate that the virus has gained the level of transmissibility among humans necessary to cause a pandemic.
Phase 4 is characterized by verified human-to-human transmission of an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus able to cause “community-level outbreaks.” The ability to cause sustained disease outbreaks in a community marks a significant upwards shift in the risk for a pandemic. Any country that suspects or has verified such an event should urgently consult with WHO so that the situation can be jointly assessed and a decision made by the affected country if implementation of a rapid pandemic containment operation is warranted. Phase 4 indicates a significant increase in risk of a pandemic but does not necessarily mean that a pandemic is a forgone conclusion.
Phase 5 is characterized by human-to-human spread of the virus into at least two countries in one WHO region. While most countries will not be affected at this stage, the declaration of Phase 5 is a strong signal that a pandemic is imminent and that the time to finalize the organization, communication, and implementation of the planned mitigation measures is short.
Phase 6, the pandemic phase, is characterized by community level outbreaks in at least one other country in a different WHO region in addition to the criteria defined in Phase 5. Designation of this phase will indicate that a global pandemic is under way.
During the post-peak period, pandemic disease levels in most countries with adequate surveillance will have dropped below peak observed levels. The post-peak period signifies that pandemic activity appears to be decreasing; however, it is uncertain if additional waves will occur and countries will need to be prepared for a second wave.
Previous pandemics have been characterized by waves of activity spread over months. Once the level of disease activity drops, a critical communications task will be to balance this information with the possibility of another wave. Pandemic waves can be separated by months and an immediate “at-ease” signal may be premature.
In the post-pandemic period, influenza disease activity will have returned to levels normally seen for seasonal influenza. It is expected that the pandemic virus will behave as a seasonal influenza A virus. At this stage, it is important to maintain surveillance and update pandemic preparedness and response plans accordingly. An intensive phase of recovery and evaluation may be required.

Basically this is what is happening without our A Flu...

无奈

2009-06-12T01:48:00.002+08:00

无奈，是一个很可怕的感觉。
它可以让你感到无助，绝望。。。
对于自己的犹豫，
对于自己的无能，
感到很无奈。
有时，会想要暂时消失，
让自己静下来,
不要再想了.
不开心的,
不喜欢做的,
都远远的抛出去,
离开我的视线.
但,生活有岂有让我这样放肆的余地呢?
努力吧!
现在还早，
不是放弃的时候。
咬紧牙根的走下去，
希望明天会更好，
把一切的无奈，
都埋在深深的洞里，
让它慢慢的消失。。。

Achilles heels...

2009-06-11T01:18:00.003+08:00

Achilles, the greatest warrior of the Trojan war,
Brave, cunning and skillful in battle.
Killed everyone before him,
conquered every city that he reached.
Nevertheless, every heroes has their fall.
With an arrow from Paris,
the brave almighty Achilles fell.
No matter how good you are,
how exceptional you are,
there will be something that is beyond you.
No matter how tough one looks on the outside,
people are vulnerable on the inside.

A bizarre happening...

2009-06-10T18:20:00.006+08:00

Yesterday was the first time when I step into the police station near my house. U muz b curious what had happened to me. haha. NO, I did not shoplift. It was a joke that I was there due to shoplifting k?lolz. Anyway, the reason I was there was to accompany my frend little turtle to make a police report as he got a phone call saying he owe an amount of money to Celcom due to phone bills that were unpaid. However, the bizarre thing was, HE NEVER HAD A CELCOM NUMBER!!!

This was the photostat copy that we obtained from Celcom, stating the number of the phone as well as the particular of THE PERSON who subscribed for the number. Obviously, there is a lot of fake IDs and infos there including mother's name and also the address. And apparently, u dun nid to be there to subscribe a line as a FREND is enuf to help u do it.

This was the list of things needed in order to prove that Turtle here did not subscribed for the number. A police report, a birth certificate, any bill(electrical, water) from his home(to prove his address is not the one stated in the Celcom form) and a surat sumpah...

On this piece of paper is the phone numbers that was subscribed. The guy responsible for tis is unbelivably greedy, subscribing for 6 numbers in total...

This is the police report that we got. When we were making the report, the police officer really disappointed me. We asked if there will be any investigations done for this situation, and you know, the answer really really ruin the day...

Here is the dialogue between us:
A:So, akan apa-apa penyiasatan dibuat untuk kes ini?
Police: Penyiasatan? Nak siasat apa? Laporan ini untuk Celcom kan?
A:oo, maksud saya, akan tak penyiasatan dibuat untuk mencari orang yang bertanggungjawab untuk mendaftar nombor-nombor ini?
P:Aiya, kes macam ini biasa la. Tadi sudah ada satu. Kes ini memang biasa saja. Bukan u seorang yang kena saja.
A:Jadi lepas ini tak kan ada apa-apa penyiasatan?
P:Kalau u mau penyiasatan dilakukan, saya tak buat laporan ini dah. Saya perlu refer kamu kepada Jabatan lain dan kamu kena beri keterangan yang lebih lanjut. Ini makan banyak masa tau? Aiya, banyak orang yang kena kes-kes macam ini la. Sudah ada beberapa ribu kes dah...
A:Semua dari Celcom?
P:Taklah. Celcom, Maxis, Digi semua pun ada. Biasanya mereka buat laporan macam ini dan bagi company telefon tu lepas tu siap dah.
A:Maksudnya macam apa- apa pun tak berlaku.
P:ya.

God bless us...

理想

2009-06-10T11:06:00.002+08:00

人,一生都在追求着自己的理想.
为了它,我们要作出不少的牺牲.我们不停的努力,追求着
梦幻般的生活,用不完的财富,完美的另一半和成功的事业.
爱情,友情,家庭,金钱,事业.
也许,有时候会遇到不如意的事情,
让我们感到泄气.
也许,有时候理想会变成梦想,
变得难以实现.
但这一切的一切,
只是把生活变得更有挑战而以.
有人说,达到理想,什么都是值得的.
但,若为了理想,失去了朋友,家人,爱人,
那还值得吗?
不理了,先努力吧!
或许有一天,可以找到平衡点.
过日子,开心就好! ^^

Another day in GH

2009-06-09T13:11:00.003+08:00

Huhuhu, today drove to work in a semi conscious state(again). Seems like i have officially become a bat as I am super duper sleepy during day time while hyperactive during night time. On the way to GH, went pass SM Jalan Residensi. This is a kinda special place for me, as it was the location for my one and only camp involvement beyond school activities. Kinda missed the camp with all the activities. But then again, i couldn't really enjoyed the camp that much at the time as I severely lacked social skills. Making good friends in 3 days is so difficult. ~.~

When I reached the accident and emergency department, the other groups of student was already there. I was like ,' oh shit!', cause we were just complained by Dr Khor yesterday for making the A & E too crowded. lolz. But then again, the more the merrier ma. Its considered a rather busy day in the department this morning comparing to the other days, which means more chance to do some useful jobs.(instead of growing mushrooms all over. I think I am totally 'mushroomed' after a week there) Poke and prick and poke and prick. Super nice. WEEEEEEE

After that, went to clerk a patient for my report. It was quite an odd feeling as it was in chinese. Somehow, I have a feeling that the patient mistook me for the doctor. haha. All went well, and hopefully the report will be out by the time my gang reaches home. Then it will be time for ROSE ONLINE again. haha. Missed out lunch with Gab as timing was not good. Too bad la cendui, next time ba!

Decisions...

2009-06-09T00:37:00.002+08:00

Sometimes, life can be so very difficult. Everyday, no matter what we do, we are handed the task of making decisions. From things as trivial as what are we going to eat, to bigger issues that can totally alter the path of our lives. Choices are made based on what we have experienced, what we have been educated about. We make choices that we 'think' are right. Sad to say, sometimes they aren't, and you might just end up rubbing more salt on a fresh bleeding wound.

Making decisions can be really hard. This is mainly due to the fact that we are all afraid of change. From the small things, like changing to eat outside campus instead of the same old roti canai in the cafe to bigger things like changing a job that you have been doing for the past 5 or 10 years, or maybe changing a career. Changes disrupts familiarity, which gives us a sense of security. This is where our fear of change comes from. However, given time, most people would be able to adapt to changes, molding what they have to what they want. Sometimes, compromise is needed.

At certain conditions, decisions might not be made base on logic at all. We tend to rely on intuitions occasionally. This kind of decision will bring you down a route which you might not have imagine before. You might end up getting a windfall out of the blue OR you might have the biggest fall of your life.' With greater risk comes greater rewards', some might argue. But the other way is true as well,' with greater risk comes greater punishments'. So, before making any decisions, think carefully. Trust your own judgment and be confident.

Exams, here we go again...

2009-04-03T05:10:00.002+08:00

Its the time of the year again when everyone is busy facing their end of semester examinations. In my coursemate's case, their Professional exams. I've had my 2nd Pro exam as we called it last year. This year, my juniors that are undertaking the exam are facing a different kind of challenge as the way the exam is conducted is changed. Basically, I would say that the change is for the worst as it reduces the clinical experience for my juniors. Anyway, we'll leave that to just that.

For those taking the Professional II exam this year, basically they have 3 papers. 1st the short essay question, then the clinical OSCE and finally the data interpretation. Unfortunately, there seems to be some favouratism in our campus as some people has so called 'answer scheme' for the examinations. According to some source, they say that there is at least 17 questions of short essay question that came out from the scheme. For the data interpretation, we are given slides of data and asked to analyze them. Some of the students have memorize the answer so well that even before the question is given, they have done the answer. Imagine that!

Sigh, what can we say? The world that we are in obviously is unfair. This is just a prove of it. The most reliable people are still ourselves. Study hard, and we can still excelled without the 'illegal' help.

To all those taking exam soon, good luck!

The dissappoinment...

2009-03-08T06:38:00.009+08:00

Lately, I've been glancing through a lot of my secondary school mates' blogs as I finally have the time to settle down and relax. From it, I just realize how very different our university life is. Some of my friends are in Japan, some in Australia, some in UMS, all are very very different indeed. Comparing myself with them, my experience seems so... ordinary. Or maybe there are any experience except for the long nights of dota and the early ward rounds and on-calls.

Studying abroad has always been what I've been yearning for so long. It was a childhood dream, which remains as such, a dream. There isn't the slightest sign any changes in that status. University life in USM Kubang Kerian(USMKK) so far has been very far off interesting, and even more far off than what I wanted. I've always thought of University life as when we will be more independant, in a large campus which is properly equipped, and has lots of exciting and fun activities. Much to my dissappointment, this isn't the case. My campus is more or less as large as my secondary school with most of the equipments malfunctioning. The gyms have lots of equipments, mostly not functioning. We have wireless, which isn't so unstable that Celcom broadband is fast becoming a trend in the campus. With this kind of connection, our lecturers still expects us to get our assignments done. In the end, we have to turn to the library computer which is the main source of virus infection in the campus. Even the qualities of the lecturers have dropped significantly since the first year I came. A lot of the 'legendary' has become history and lots more are on their way out due to the policy of our campus. The best examples will be our physiology department where there was once a good deal of 'Einstein-ish' figures. Well, for a consolation, we still have a lecturer who does look like Einstein in our surgery department.
I would give anything to be taught be someone like him!
Another dissappointing thing in the campus is the amount of activities. Due to the amount of undergraduates in the campus, there can't be too much activities. We do not have the prom nights, the faculty nights or any dinner in fact to look forward to. Nevertheless, we do have some activities such as student conference which was held in UMS, and a few other outdoor activities. However, much to my distaste, due to the fact that all the organizers of this activities are the M type, we rarely know about the existance of such activities until after they are over. The M people will take this opportunities fully for themselves while when we try to organize an activity, there should be an amount of them present. What an irony! So, for the whole year, the only thing worth thinking about is the Christmas night organized by the Christian Fellowship and also the Chinese new years night organized by 2nd year students.

From the blogs, I also came to realize all the beautiful scenery and all the different weathers that I have missed. Since I have been trapped here for such a long time, I've only experienced the super-duper hot season and the monsoon season where the rain just won't stop. There is no spring, no summer, no fall and no winter. Just plain-o sun or rain.

My university is also just one of lower ranking university in the country. We are currently just 3rd in the standings in our country. We do have a nick called the apex university, but well, I think so far it still counts for nothing since nothing is up to standard. Our university's ranking have plummeted to 313 in the world standing and is only 7 places ahead of UPM. UM not only is our country's top, but they are 73 places ahead of us. Maybe I'm just good enough for this University. Who knows?*shrugs shoulder*

And then there is the whole issue of the hostel thing at the beginning of the year. Its just made me realize that some people's words are just worthless. Our admins are exactly like politicians.(althought not all of them are like that) Its pointless to ask them to get a hold of information of any condition. They will give you any answers to make their life easier. As long as thats the case, if you suffer, thats your problem. So, they be worried if you step in our admins' office and sell a lot of fishes. They do sell them you know. Who says admins are there to help students?

Well, looking at the bright side, at least I will be away from here after one more year(hopefully, fingers crossed). After that, I can try and make a better choice then when I did for my university. After all, we have to pay the price for decisions that we make.haha

Doctors

2009-03-06T02:41:00.007+08:00

What are doctors to us? What kind of person should a doctor be? In my mind, a doctor should be a person who is caring and very knowledgeable. Nevertheless, since entering this course, I have changed my view.

There are a lot of doctors who just wants profit, they couldn't care less for the patient. Some doesn't think too much of money, but they don't think much of their patient either. Some are excellent teachers, who are willing to teach everything they know to you. Some feels that other doctors are a pain in the ass, who will drag them down when they do their work. All in all, doctors are just normal people.

In my four years in medical school, I've only seen a few doctors who I look up to. They are excellent clinicians, yet they do not lack the human side of a doctor. They talk to their patients, they explain to their patients, and they treat the patients like their friend. It is this kind of doctor that gives us the urge to do better, in the hope of being a good doctor like they are. On the other hand, some doctors don't even bother to see their patients. And when they go to the patients bed, they just glance through the patients folder and move on to other things. Some even are rude to the patients.

For example, a doctor went to see her patient. This patient had a lump on the body which has caused her pain for months. She was originally scheduled for surgery on the day before but for some reason, the surgery was called off. When the doctor came, she tell the doctor that she is in pain and is hoping to get the surgery soon. Instead of assuring the patient, she answered her coldly. Her reply was, ' if we can, we will do the surgery, if we can't, we can't la'. The patient was very sad and tears started to drop. The doctor went away without further explanation. Is this the kind of doctor that you would want for yourself?

My friends had an experience that made him extremely depress for one whole week. He was with this specialist for exam when the specialist asked him some questions. Being an extremely bright student, my friend was able to answer most of the question, and then there came the shock. There was one question that he wasn't sure of, but he tried to answer anyway, guess what the response from the specialist was...
Bullshit man! Nah!
That was the response. Imagine the look on my friend's face when I saw him immediately after that exam. haha.

Here's something just for laughs...

Doctors Conference -

Five surgeons from big cities are discussing on who makes the easiest patient to operate on.

The first surgeon, from Singapore, says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table. When you open them up, everything inside is numbered."

The second, from Bangkok, responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is colour coded."

The third surgeon, from Bejing says, "No, I really think librarians are the best, everything inside them is in alphabetical order."

The fourth surgeon, from Jakarta , chimes in, "You know, I like construction workers... those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over."

But the fifth surgeon, from KL , shuts them all up: "You're all wrong. Politicians from Malaysia are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no hearts, no balls, no brains and no spines. And the head and the arse are interchangeable!"

PPSMI

2009-03-05T16:27:00.002+08:00

Lately, all the attention have been turned towards the happenings in Perak. From the party hopping incidents to the fall of the Pakatan Rakyat lead government to the emergency assembly under the tree. Indeed, it has been a interesting period for those who love drama. And more is to follow. Nevertheless, there is also one other issue that concerns us, the PPSMI.

PPSMI stands for Pengajaran Dan Pembelajaran Sains Dan Matematik Dalam Inggeris (http://www.moe.gov.my/tayang.php?laman=ppsmi&unit=guru&bhs=en). Since a few years back, our country has started adopting English as the medium for Mathematics and Science education. The decision was made 'based on the government’s concern on the nation’s human capital development towards achieving the standard of a developed country, as well as an early preparation to compete in the era of globalization'. It has just been implemented for less than 5 years but certain group of people are already rejecting the effort of the government.

Mostly of the people objecting it thinks that the change of medium will cause the Malay language to be destroyed(hancur as they say). Apart from that, they think that this policy wil benefit those from the city more than people from the rural areas where 70% of the population are Malays. There are also a few other arguements that are brought up.

Personally, I think that it is too early to judge whether this policy is effective or not. The group of people protesting are only thinking that teaching in English is hurting their mother tongue. What our country lack currently are capable teachers who can teach well in English. Teachers who struggle to master the English language should be sent to follow courses to improve tmeselves. I feel that a teacher are responsible for making sure that they are capable and can master the English language. As for the rural area, there are some projects being done to improve the condition such as the 'Project to improve English in rural schools' (PIERS) which was implemented in Negri Sembilan. Instead of whining, I believe that we should think of ways to improve the project. What do you all think?

Regarding the article which is very critical of the project, go to http://www.pkpim.net/v2/info/memorandum/72-menolok-usaha-meneruskan-ppsmi.html

Cancel the class

2009-03-02T11:16:00.003+08:00

Today, I called the doctor who was supposed to take our clinical teaching. Below was the conversation we had...

Me: Good morning doctor, i'm a 4th year medical student. We have a teaching with you next monday. But the Monday is a public holiday...(before i finished)

Dr: Public holiday ar? You expect me to come on a public holiday? No way. Cancel the class.

Me: Erm, is it possible to change...(again, before i finished)

Dr: Change? No, its impossible. Cancel the class.

Then the doctor left.

Conclusion, doctors are really damn busy...Though, i'm kinda piss about how the class was cancelled, I'm thankful for the holiday. Blessings really comes in various forms.haha

Life...

2009-02-18T01:12:00.002+08:00

Life's a long long journey,
everyday, we are rushing here and there,
working, studying,
trying to live our lives.
Sometimes, we focus too much on certain things,
so much so that we neglected the beautiful things beside us.
Like the beautiful scenery,
the perfect weather,
and most importantly
the wonderful people that has been around us.
Someone once said,
'the people you love will some day leave you for another place,'
'that is why, you have to treasure every minute you have with ur love ones.'
How very true is tat?
So, no matter how busy we are,
how frustrating things are going sometimes,
we should stop for a moment,
and take a little bit of time,
to look around us,
appreciate God's creation,
and tell the person you love how you feel...

Valentine Day

2009-02-14T21:10:00.007+08:00

Its 14 of February again. Too bad me and my girlfriend are stuck in our own rooms, watching the horribly large stack of notes in order to prepare for the exams that are creeping up behind us. Haih, the life of a student sure are full of them.

Valentine's day. Its a memorable day where couples and maybe close friends get together and buy some gifts like chocolates, flowers and such for each other. However, in my opinion, the happiest person during Valentines day are not the lovers and any couples.

Its the owner of the gift shops!!!haha

Normally business should already be good for these gift shops as birthdays, farewell, and other occasions are all around the year. However, during Valentine's day, its even better as not only the demand goes up, the prices follows as well. So, their profit not only doubled but maybe four times better!

Gifts are so expensive during the Valentine period. Example, this teddy bear bouquet will cost around Rm50 per bouquet. Imagine those boy friends who send a bouquet of 99 teddies to their girl friends. Its almost Rm1000!! I bet she will be even happier if the guy juz gave her the money with a Valentine card saying,
'Love you dear. As buying all those teddies and flower are so lame, I decided to give you a check of rm1000 to spend on anything you wan. Happy Valentine.'

Rose are among the commonest things given to girls during Valentine day as well. During the normal periods, its juz around Rm5 per rose. However, the price will be upped more than double to Rm12 per rose during Valentine's day. Gosh, I sure hoped that I had a garden of roses!!

I'm sure after Valentine, all the gift shop owners will be as looking like lil kitteh over here...

Then again, this is such a nice festive for couples that they dun mind spending a bit for their love ones. Its juz once a year anyway, minus the birthday, minus the anniversary, minus the other small small anniversaries.lol

Happy Valentines all!!!
