Travelling...

Humans are born with the desire to roam the Earth... We crawl, then walk, then run, all in an effort to move further away from where we came from, from home...

I know first hand the thrill of changing what surroundings can do for one's heart and now I also know that sometimes staying home and let others go can be its own fantastic dream... Because when you let go of something, you make room for something else entirely, something you never expected, something that makes life seem like its own unexpected adventure- a trip where new treasures are found around every old corner, where the world and all its complexities come right to your doorstep...

Because in the end, the power is not just with those who go away, but also in what they leave behind...

God bless you peeps...

Thankful & Joyful...

Went for COP during Wednesday... It was in a spastic centre that I passed by a thousand of times but never really know that place till that day... Those children there are actually very willing to learn despite their circumstances, and so I reflected on myself after that, and found out that there's just so much to be grateful for in this life!!! So you bastards please stop complaining, and try to be grateful with what you have!!! Those children are so eager to learn stuffs regardless of their age, and mind you a 14 year-old girl was just learning basic English as in standard 1 or 2!!! SO PLEASE, BE THANKFUL with what you have now, and stop whining!!!

Went to Sunway Lagoon on Thursday with Manlo, Mark, Huey Jen, Samantha, Swee Vien, Sarah and Vishal!!! It has been about 3 years since I last came here... I can still recall the times we had here with my Form 5 classmates(the best class!!!)... And this time it was also very fun!!! HAHA!!!

Played all of the games(if i'm not mistaken)... SOOOOOOOOOO FUN!!! Damn tiring but joyful... After that, had dinner at Ayam Penyet recommended by Sarah... Had fun talking crap again!!! After that, went to watch Legion with Manlo, Mark and Sulo(she came later just for the movie)... The movie was kinda nice based on a moral prospective and theological way... The ending wasn't that good but still acceptable... In the end, it is just about having faith in Him...

Hallelujah!!!

Awesome Weekend!!!

This is an update about my awesome weekend!!! haha... Had another superbly awesomely fantastically amazing weekend!!! So tiring, but it was fun & happy!!! And I managed to learn a lot of things too!!!

Was working with AMSA on Saturday as told in the previous post...

Worked in Open Day on Sunday!!! I was in charged of taking blood pressures... As I'm only a sem 1 student so I dare not use the conventional sphygmomanometer instead I used the automatic one, but I'm sure I have already mastered the manual way(hopefully)... The joy of doing something for someone and hearing them say a word of gratefulness to you is just indescribable!!! Let's hope I won't deviate from this burning desire and passion of mine in pursuing my ambition!!!

After that, tagged along Lilian's car to go to church... Her aunt joined us too... She's one funny person!!! She might be an elderly person but her mental age is definitely not much older than me!!! haha!!! It was so jolly...

The Almighty is in control of everything... God bless those in Haiti... Amen!!!

AMSA Campaign Day...

16/1/10 is the day of the AMSA thingy... So happy that it was such a great success!!! Though I wasn't in the committee but I'm always satisfied with being able to help out in things...haha!!! More over, this was a successful one!!! Although our batch were only in charge on registrations, I managed to learn quite a lot of things...

I found out that mati pucuk=ED!!! haha... I learnt that communication plays a seriously MAJOR ROLE in a doctor's career!!! Besides, the way you convey your message is the 2nd most important thing!!! As Dr. Inti from the Jinjang Clinic said, 'Medicine is an art. It's not about what you know, but how you deliver it to your patients.'... I also found out that my BM and Chinese are getting rusty!!! Though I often use Chinese when I'm with my secondary school friends, I have no idea why it just sounds so odd when I'm with my uni mates... But I definitely don't intend to brush them up...haha!!! Let it deteriorate, as long as I can still remember my basic stuffs...

After all, it was a rather tiring but awesome morning!!! Talked to a few patients to help them register and I learnt some new things from them such as PCOS- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome...

This is the best event that I ever participated in!!! haha... There were no blunders at all...

Alright... Gonna help out in open day tomorrow, which I'm sure is gonna be even more tiring than this... And I think I might be able to take BPs... Let's hope I don't screw my very 1st CSU session and definitely not in front of public!!!

God bless me to perform well and not do stupid things... Amen!!!

AMSA...

Went for some AMSA stuff yesterday in Jinjang... It's actually a campaign in collaboration with a clinic in Jinjang to provide free health screening on Saturday... Therefore, we had to distribute the flyers to the villagers yesterday...

This is definitely a better experience compared to the 1 that I participated in during Form 5 for Chong Hwa...swt... I can still recall that while we were distributing the flyers along Taman Kaya, most of the people were very reluctant and they just won't listen... We were trying to promote a talk that time and guess what... We, the volunteers ourselves were the only audience the speaker had... How saddening is that...

Back to the present, I walked a lot!!! Knocked on almost every house that I passed by and was so happy to see that they actually listen and when I reassured them to come, they actually nodded!!! Though, won't be confident that they'll attend... But it was definitely better than my previous experience!!! Had great fun man!!! Tomorrow's gonna be the day... Hope that I'll be able to learn more stuffs...

God bless this event to be successful... Thank you...

Hitch...

It is rare to actually have the chance to save someone's life... For most of us, our days are filled with small serious gestures like a place to lay your head or a beer for our thirsty friend... Then there are times when our life calls for bigger gifts whether you give a fresh start to yourself or a second chance to someone else... But in the end of the day, perhaps it is our small gestures that will add up to something big to a life saved or at least to a life bettered... Sometimes, the small things are what matters the most, as the grandest gesture can be the smallest one of all...

Was watching Hitch just now... Though I've watched it for couple of times but I'm still not bored of it because of Will Smith...haha!!! He rocks!!!

Here are 3 quotes that can make your brain work for a few seconds:

You never where you're going until you know where you have been...
Life is not the amount of breaths you take, but the MOMENTS that take your breath away...
That's what people do: they leap and pray to God that they can fly, because otherwise they'll drop and start wondering why the hell did they jump...
God bless all of you...

Expressions...

As children, we were taught to express ourselves, we were told to use our words to be specific and not to assume that others know how we feel because the truth is, it takes us saying aloud to know what we need, to know what we feel ourselves...

As adults, there are those times when words fail us... In times like this, we put our words away and show how we feel because actions speak louder than words and that saying a lot... As a matter a fact, your saying means nothing if your actions betrays you...

P/S: just some random scrapping...

God bless all of you!!!

It has almost been a week in 2010... Sorry for the super late post due to my laziness... Gosh been using those 4 alphabets very often since the start of the year!!! Crap man, gotta stop using it when class starts... Mind you, the 4 letters are L-A-Z-Y instead of what you have in your mind... lol!!!

Awaiting for more outings to come... My dear phone/msn/FB chat please ring or pop something out otherwise i'm just gonna rot like a fag(as usual) at home AGAIN!!!

New Year Resolutions:

2. Make sure that I'll get into Sem 4 when I type my 1st blog post in the year 2011!!!

Guess that's all... God bless all of ya out there...!!!
