This tiny little system up in my head selectively erases files without much of my consent. Dang. I realized I cannot remember anything anymore. 5 months post graduation and not much were achieved. It still feels like a long semester break. I wish we could have spent more time on the day of the convocation itself anddd there wasn't any formal farewell. Hmmm, oh, did I mention my-half-stray-dog gave birth to 6 chubby little puppies? Hehehe, and now…......
I'm raising stray dogs!
It feels like parenting sometimes. I've 2 lovely dogs and 3 puppies that look up to me for food, for shelter, for baths, for a clinic visits and maybe for the rest of their lives.
It's when there are more reasons to smile everyday.
Rewinddd~
I reckon, graduations were sorta dolled-up. It was more of a passing-out ceremony, another phase of life. When I was younger, I've sorta 'labeled' certain levels of life to a 'matching' colour. Well, if you don't have a middle name; michie, you might not know what I meant. Anyhooo~ graduation was supposed to be violet! It turned out a shade lighter tho. I wish, 'ma ma' could be there. She was longing for the day, but…..she left a little too early.
Nonetheless, it was one of the many dreams came true.
Like said, life's not a bed of roses, and I suppose the impact hits hard, harder on us who're about to/already is working in the hospital. There might be a few lucky ones, but I'd say majority of us were all very messed up. At some point, I'm kinda envious of the rest working in office with proper attire, a table to themselves, perhaps a computer and air-cond! On the other hand, we get stuck in jungle, in middle of no where, in hospital which yucky food, with no-say, ugly shoes, complicated people, with dress-codes to follow and most of all, in shirt and white coat with no air-cond!
When we were younger, the best gift for our cuz-s in Singapore; (at almost all meetings) would be chewing gums. Just because Singapore bans the gums, almost all kids who grew up there craved it. To my very surprise, she's still loving them. Her last trip here, chewing gums could actually be the best 'souvenir' for friends! I then witnessed how they tried to hide gums of different flavours in the seas of their belongings, in hope to escape the custom-check.
On the other hand, those of us who grew up here in Malaysia, CHEWING GUM is………well, chewing gum.
Metaphorically, when we were deprived of something we wanted so badly, the same craving event occurs. We are always trailing after something that did not happen, believing THAT is happiness we're pursuing. Instead, many times, happiness is just right beside, if only…………..
I woke up today with inexplicable-body-ache. Then I tried to recall what I did the previous day; nothing anomalous, nothing that strenuous.
I bathed the doggies tho!
Tadaaa….
The combo
Little Rambo
(Note his back legs )
Voila, they grew! Hehehe
It's funny when it comes to bathing them. I've to move their front legs (manually), so that they walk. Consequently, they will move the back legs. I wished I can have that recorded.
Kancil is so built now that I've to use every muscle available to hold her with one hand and bathe her with the other. And in order not to hurt her leg, most of the time I'd end up embracing her with my left hand and 'dettol' her with the right. That explains why…..
I smell like them.
On the other hand, Rambo is so obedient. He stands still. Although sometimes, he cheekily escapes! A test of speed.
You don't wanna run around the house trying catch a half dettol-ed doggie.
Did I mention they drop by our house everyday? If you're looking from the inside of the house, it'd look something like this...
*melts*

And these kepo-s made Malacca so much more bearable.
but I’m sure I’m gonna be missing it when everything ends.
I freaking dreamt of myself rehearsing how beta blockers prevent cardiac remodelling in Heart Failure. At some point, I tried to recall the specific word (cathecolamine bombardment) to describe the condition. I wanted to refer to my notes!
And then I started asking myself, “How come I’m not sleeping?”
We had an unforeseen ‘lecture’ today. The topic of learning was ‘attendance’. All that we were asked to ‘learn’; a 75% participation. Oh, and probably putting initials to our own name, and only our name. The adverse event must not be missed; (incidence ~50%) getting BAR-red from finals.
Glad we learned well, you know we are no hardworking persons. But we went by the rule and CLEAN was the word they used.
Yea, we are CLEAN!
Bravo buddies!
P/S : I haven't written hand-write a letter in years.
The 4 years course to the Bachelor of Pharmacy (Hons) ended today. Some may see it as just another day, but somehow it meant a little bit more to me. Remarkably, LT 2 was actually our batch's first gathering point, if u recall? And we ended the 4-years run here in LT 2 today.
I wished I managed to sit through the last hours of 'lecture' more calmly, perhaps falling asleep would even be better. I just missed days where the workload were crazy and the lectures were so packed, we couldn't help but to nap in the melodic tone of our lecturers. *No offence* But my seminar presentation has to be scheduled this late, I haven't really started studying, and who am I to cheat, I was feeling nervous waiting in line for my turn, just as how it went on my first day in the university.
When I first enrolled in, this seat I got was perhaps, a dream come true. And when the workloads and expectations came, I've perhaps lost count of the times where I just wanted to give up. Fortunately, each time the thought was brushed away very quickly, with the help of YOU-s who are reading this.
Life could have been simpler.....if only I had allowed it to be.
It was perhaps one of the 4 years I would really miss in future, ups and downs, but never mind about the later. In no time, I'll probably be blogging about bills, work and other boring stuffs.
All that is needed now is a 14 days' miracle to a photographic memories of the systems taught in past semesterS.
