haven't been blogging for a while. not much inspiration. so have just been posting up pictures to keep this blog alive.

was looking through some blogs and felt inspired to write something....

currently doing my med scap in kelantan for 1 month. 2 wks have passed.... really quickly i must say, have i achieved much? not really, yet i'm enjoying my time here. the consultant is a real cool guy from KL doing his gastro rotation for a year, so it's all good. everyday's half day, ward work and clinic.... den back to baya's for a nice nap and spent heaps of time watching tv and korean series. i supposed there could be more condusive ways to spend my time. but it seems like a real rest in these 3 mths of hols, it's been pretty full before this. i haven't spent much 'me' time. days were filled with work, hanging out with friends, church, went to bali, langkawi, KL and JB. it's nice to slow down and find rest in this really chill pace of life. it's as if the world is moving slowly although in reality it's still moving the same pace as before. it's just that i slowed down. a good time to ponder bout life, but that's not something i m doing now. 2 mores wks to go here, then 5 days in penang, and then i head back to good ole' adelaide. i do miss that place. it's seems like home to me already. my life there, it's pretty much set. my group of friends, church, uni routine, environment. it's like it grew on me without me realising. this past year has been awesome despite some not so great events happening in my life, i found that i actually love being where i am and around the people whom i care for. there was once i didn't even consider staying back in aus to work, now, 2 years later, things have changed, i fell in love with a place i was once thought was slow, boring, mundane.... it's all about the people i think. they make a whole lot of difference.

i came out with a new phrase today.... what do you call someone who is malay + chinese?
malaynese!! i don't know if there is an actual real word but well i think it sorta makes sense. it sounds better den chi-lay or ma-nese... which just don't quite fit.

and some "medical" phrases i learnt on this rotation
manja-itis = in other words malingering in manglish
hepatitis-ing = acute hepatitis?

btw, congrats to those who passed sem 10 - darlin siew lian, jimmy and shang... awww. finally, you guys are officially Drs. can't wait to grad but at the same time, i hope this year won't pass me by so quickly. i do want to have a great 6th year with heaps of wonderful memories of my last year as a student.

one day, i want to look back and see the beauty of my past. :)
