Pig overboard...

well.. today was the 7th day we've been in cherating for induction...
everyone is a bit busy cramming for the induction exam, playing dodgeball and baling selipar, makan2, makan2 etc2..

it has actually been a very interesting time...
we got to cherating on Monday last week.. and we had our fair share of losing our way throughout the whole journey. We went in a convoy of 3 cars, mine, fizzi's and nazeerah's.. i had ezran and wis in my car, pakcik , yuhana and fizzi while the other car had nazeerah, izi drama and rahman..

i actually got lost in genting sempah, trying to find a way in to genting sempah r&r.. apart from the minor overshoot.. we found our way reasonably except when we strayed into Kuantan Port literally..

On the 3rd day, we woke up for the compulsory senamang pagi.. and ezran was the first to wake up, we usually pray every morning that it rains so that we won't to have to go down for riadah.. however he got a bit more than he bargained for when he was looking at the pool directly below our balcony... the previous night brought a storm and also a 'visitor' . He saw a 'babi hutan' in the pool swimming from one end to another.. everyone thought it was a prank but just went to make sure.. and sure enough.. we saw the 'babi hutangs' getting out of the pool... and running towards the resorts kitchen.. it was running in and not out of the resort.. that has to be one of my weirdest experiences.. A few months back when i was in ampang.. i saw a pack of 20 'babi hutangs' waiting on the side of the road directly across zoo negara..

what's with babi hutangs....
signing off..

Too Late now...

well.. i' m currently in cherating.. and i'm blogging at 1.30 am after i've finished washing my clothes.. induction has actually been very nice.. environment wise.. the people, the spare time used to play dodgeball and baling selipar.. not really content wise.. all the stuff about government service.. it's actually mildly freaking me out.. on the other hand i can't wait to start working .. KUMPUL DUIT.. haha..

the anxiety of burdening the responsibility on a patient's well being is quite daunting to me.. but i hope that i'll learn the ropes of it quick and be a safe doctor insya-Allah..
i did say i would try to write a bit more frequently on the blog.. well that's down the drain.. maybe now i'll start a to write a bit more seeing that i'll be starting working and doing something a bit more interesting than staying at home..

we got our postings a few days back.. Alhamdulilah i got Hospital Putrajaya together with Faya and Kak Fir while Izi got Temerloh. She's trying to appeal to get Putrajaya and the results will come out in a few days, fingers crossed. Pakcik got Batu Pahat together with Fahmi and a few others. Ezran got Seremban, Fizzi and Rahman got Muar but Fizzi is appealing for Malacca Hospital. Yuhana and Ken got Queen E but seeing it's dilapidated condition, they're going to outsource the hospital to Sabah Medical Center and also Tawau Hospital. Wis and Didi Dodot got KB hospital while annas got USM if i'm not mistaken.

It's rather overwhelming going through the fact that 5 years of medical school has passed us by and here we stand on the brink of actually starting work.. I've changed in the past 5 years.. a bit more tua. a bit more restrained and level headed.. i think.. hopefully it's for the better.. insya-Allah..

anyway that's it for now.. tomorrow is an early day.. so better get some sleep...
pray for us.. insya-Allah..
Assalamualaikum...

p/s: we went to Kemamang Makang Ketamg Sumbat.. haha.. adios for now..

let's start small..

well.. as i've been saying that i'll start blogging a bit more frequent than usual..
so i better get down to it... so let's start with small menial news..

well ramadhan has come and left us.. and raya has passed...

i spent the whole of ramadhan loafing around coupled with the odd visit to seremban and batu pahat..

raya was celebrated with a bit more gumption(look it up.. i forget it's meaning) as there is a possibility of me spending raya in the hospital when it comes around next year.. extra mercun, extra food, extra rajin..

basically my time table for every raya never changes..
we'll go back to masjid tanah 2 days before raya
- clean up and everything..
- the day before raya - pergi pasar after subuh... this year i've noticed they weren't that many people as compared to previous years.. the economy isn't as good as before..
- start up a fire, bakar lemang
-tahlil and takbir raya at home - hmm a bit more emphasis seeing as this is the first time i've celebrated without pak lang mat
-bakar mercun - this year was full of duds and a few wild ones .. a few were shot into the house..
-raya morning - tahlil dekat kubur after subuh
makan jemput2 (every year)
solat raya
photography session
ziarah wajib - masjid tanah , solok limau, parit melana, bukit rambai etc
makan kfc for dinner
-2nd raya - a bit more special as my cousin pergi merisik his second cousin.. scheduled to be
engaged later this year
3rd raya - balik pj

that's it for now.. i'm exhausted from thinking too hard to write this post.. very rusty.. later..

Selamat Hari Raya

haha sorry i've been.. hmmm 'occupied?' for the past 2 months of holiday to do anything meaningful for the blog.. still in the period of winding down after 5 years..
anyway... i'll TRY and update it a bit more regularly in october hopefully insya-Allah..

i'll be leaving for Malacca today after sahur, so i wanted to wish everyone a very Happy Aidilfitri.. Maaf Zahir dan Batin.. drive carefully.. and jgn main mercun kalu tak reti.. leave it to the pros..
take care.. insya-Allah...

Al-Fatihah..

i've just come back from HKL. After 3 weeks of hospitalization, my pak lang has passed away on the 24th of August 2008 at 1.00am. May Allah bless his soul.. Al-Fatihah..

The new number 7...

i've just stopped vomiting after completing the blardy portfolios...
huh ... that was a tedious complicated by certain matters/parties that
would only be mentioned after i've finished exams and hopefully passed..
INSYA-ALLAH

basically studies have not reached the ideal peak yet.. but by tomorrow i'm hoping it'll be in full gear

i finished the porfolios on tuesday morning.. slept for about an hour.. woke up.. drove down to seremban at 6.30.. submitted it.. then drove back to batu pahat and arrived at 5pm.. i collapsed after that..

but on the way.. i was cheered by our new arrival...
gotta to admire the ambition...

he's going to take over the no 7 jersey vacated by our deadwood.. er former player Harry Kewell..
