go getter!

Dear Blog,

I know that it's only been 2 weeks being posted to O&G...but, this is fun!

I mean...minus all the sarcasm and scolding and being disappointed and stuff, this posting's really got some sorta magnetic force pulling me towards it. Thanks to this really great lecturer of mine, Dr. Rahana. I really like how she teaches. From the beginning, I was expecting some hardcore moulding by her but, turns out...she's way cooler than what people give her "credit" for.

She's strict, yes.
She's got anger issues, sometimes.
She makes scary faces when she's mad, definitely.

However, knowing that she'll react that way makes me not want to disappoint her.

And with that motivation, I put all disappointment, hurt, anger and embarrassment behind me and just work harder than I used to. Not only that, I've got great friends with me to help go through this posting - Ain Musa, Lia, Fatin, Assila & Amzar. Thanks so much guys =) You guys make it even more bearable.

A friend of mine cried today, at the tutorial room. I felt sad for her. She's under a lot of stress. She sleeps late at night to study, and I always see her sleeping at the Bilik Tutor. She received a couple of scoldings starting last week, and she couldn't really take it. I understand. We all do. That's why we're here for you, no matter what =)

I presented a short case just now. I think it wasn't half bad, for a second try. I think the doc saw improvements, coz after I was done I saw her nod her head twice - which is like.....wheeeeeee! for me! hehe. I feel so relieved. Next week, Ain, Lia, Matun and May's turn hehehe.

Oklah, like I wrote at my YM shoutout, "I wanna reward myself to some McD!" hehehe. I deserve some fat in me hahahaha. Errr...don't be too happy Farah. When there's ups, there will always be downs. Prepare yourself for tomorrow's ward round coz the patient at your bed has been discharged. Visit the ward tonight to see if you have another patient, otherwise, it's a 6.45am walk to the ward again...lol.

.who's hungry? l e n a.

ban the nana!

Dear Blog,


=) Went out with H tonight.

We've been planning to go out again since last week, and finally, tonight was the night. I was excited of course, even if it was maybe a bit less compared to the first time I went out with K, but I definitely had fun with H.

He said he wanted to bring me out for dinner, I told him, "OK. There's McD and Old Town nearby". So, I figured it'd be easier to eat somewhere nearby that's affordable for both me and him and also near campus.

Turns out, he wanted to bring me out to KL. I was already thinking, "uh-oh...I thought I was gonna head to the ward after dinner". But, what the heck. KL it is. He said he knows this nice place in Sentul that serves Western, Eastern and stuff. I was like, anything with Western food is OK by me. Told him I saved my stomach for tonight, so it better be worth it. He just laughed..lol.

I remember asking him what it's like to eat there, on our way. He said there's like a tree house to dine-in, but you have to make prior reservations. We didn't get to eat on top, of course. S'ok...maybe next time.

When we arrived, I thought the place looked familiar. There were fountains and ponds all around. The dim-light environment with dried coconut tree leaves, some sorta animal skulls hanging on the walls, a bar...that Hawaii feel. So when we looked for a place to sit down I told him that this place looks like a place I used to dine in...called Naili's.

H: this is Naili's! You've been here before?
L: Really?! Well, not here
H: then in Ampang?
L: nope. there's one in Taipan, USJ. But, it's a lot smaller.
H: owh, like shophouses?
L: yup

What a coinky-dink.

We arrived around 10++ I think. He gave me the greenlight to order whatever I wanted...yay! hehe
I ordered Fish & Chips + Banana Milkshake, he ordered Spaghetti and Meatballs + Raspberry Milkshake. I told him that the best milkshake in the world has gotta be Banana! He just laughed. Prolly doesn't agree with me =p

I was surprised with how easy it was to converse with him. I got to know him a bit more, and vice versa I hope. He tied his long hair tonight, and wore his office dark grey, long-sleeved shirt (he just finished work)...just the way I like it =) He looked good.

I hope I wasn't looking a mess, coz I felt so tired. I accidentally over-slept! And rushed to get ready coz he said he'd pick me up at 9pm. I got up at 8.35pm. Brothers, sisters...you guys know how slow I am when it comes to getting ready. Poor H...hehe. When I was getting ready, he text and called. I told him I'd be down in a sec after giving directions to where he was supposed to wait for me. Knowing the security guards, he would never succeed to bypass them.

Long story short, I had a wonderful evening.

And as the cherry on top, my patient was discharged this evening. So the bed I have to cover is empty. But, dunno about tomorrow morning. If a patient suddenly comes in pagi-pagi buta, I'ma have to go to the ward earlier than usual to clerk her tomorrow...say, about 6.30am-ish?

OK. This Friday night is RockBand night!! Yay!! Can't wait =) H will be there, he joked about wanting to dress up as a vampire bcoz it's Halloween..lol.

Then, this Saturday or Sunday...going out with my good friend Anip to watch...ermmm...Papadom!! The movie that K, promised to watch with me, but, suddenly kept quiet. Whatever dude.

.papa...papa...paparazzi, l e n a.
