The time i shed a tear
nope, i was not feeling sad about anything. i would shed a tear (or maybe tears) when something really touches my heart. which don't happen very often because just like the winter, my heart is quite a stoner.
after a very tiring day of class and lecture today, i settled back in my room. Just to relax my mind, i turned on Sex and the City. season 4, episode 2 - The Real Me. There was this part, where Carrie Bradshaw was being a model in this fashion show. She was walking through the runway when she suddenly fell down which was a major embarassment, of course. But she got up because, as she said 'when real people fall down, they got right back up, and keep on walking,'. That part struck me, i mean Sex and the City is not where you can find any moral value, but i shed a tear at that part!
not that i am having any 'fall' at the moment, but it struck me that maybe my biggest fall was that i never dared to do things i have always wanted to. for example, in school last time, i had always wanted take part in sports day. but i did not - because i felt that i run too slow, that my big flabby thighs shakes when i run which looks awful and that maybe i would look funny. so every year during sports day, i will be at home.
and i never dared to approach guys, because i feel that i am not hot or pretty or in any way attractive. so i can say in my entire high school life it is just me being pathetically under my comfort blanket. i just never dared to take the risk. every time when i go out with my girl friends and we'll go out with some guys, those guys will be interested in Vero, Nat, Cindy, Joslyn, Manda but never me! never Pearly!! nobody wants my number! i guess Pearly does not seem as lovely as her name sounds.
and i will not take credit for Jonas. first, he chased me. and second, maybe he did not wear his contact lenses or something when he saw me the first time. i still do not know now.
another thing, i really love dancing. at home i would always put on some hip hop aerobic dance and just dance away in the living room. i dance in the toilet too, haha. but the time i actually danced in public - i can count it with one hand. but the shots I'd had to take to dance in public maybe i can count it with two hands.
and also the others - debate, competitions, this this that that. i missed so many good chances!
but right now, i am going to be like Carrie Bradshaw. i will not dwell in my fall. I will get right up and keep on walking. I will stop thinking about what other people think about me, because what matters most how is how I feel about myself.

Tiring Tuesday
today is indeed one of the days where my petrol meter flashes that red empty tank sign - because i am so darn tired.
in ENT class today, we learnt how to do examination on the nose and throat. so i gave my entire group the experience to see a pathological nasal cavity, since i have chronic sinusitis. hahaha....all the meds we learn today, i've taken it. almost all the symptoms we discussed, i have it. hahaha...but im so tolerant to it already, sometimes i don't even notice i've got a blocked nose.
after class, i went to visit Sathia who has the Ilizarov apparatus on his arm. He was in pain, and he was soo tired. i just with i could fast forward this entire episode for him. i really admire his bravery to endure all these, and also to talk to us when we came to visit him instead of showing a moody face. Not everyone can be like him - to him every cloud has a silver lining.
Then to kill time before my practicals i went to Fantastika and managed to buy to 2 hair bands on sale (from 269 roubles to 25 roubles!!!) sometimes it strikes me how cheap the cost price of things are when we buy it in a way more expensive price.
then Hafiz and i went for practicals. it lasted for 4 hours without any break. by the 3rd hour, we were like the walking zombies. already there was only 2 of us which means my brains had to work harder, the teacher also did not give us an easy time. but the interesting part was, today we helped a lady who fell down in the toilet.
alright, i am going to sleep. sleep. sleep. sleep. Friday please come to me!

the long compensatory pause
we had learnt about the ECG that when there is an asystole, there would be a compensatory pause after that before the P wave appears again. now i am like that. i worked my arse off in Operative surgery - studied day and night and in between. and since friday when exam was over i really needed a break. going back to all those anatomy stuff was too much for my brain that even my skull was gonna crack. which is why this year i will remember to wish the 2nd year students good luck for their Anatomy exam. i've been taking a break on Friday after the exam, Saturday, Sunday and even now i'm not really in the mood for ENT. but i love the teacher. a little like Charlotte from SATC.
and on Sunday, the prodigal's daughter went back to church. more importantly than just a compensatory pause in my studies, i think i have a way too long compensatory pause in my spiritual life - it is probably already an arrest. i've been skipping church a lot. i know it is a lame excuse to say i really miss EBC at home because God is the same at home as well as here. so yesterday i made it to Calvary Church. i have to say it makes my day so much to even decide to go to church. and being in church i feel so so at home.
Darren has been telling me a lot, since last year about this Calvary church but i just pushed it at the back of my head until a about a month ago. i visited the church and i was so impressed by Pastor Vladimir. However, because of operative exam, i skipped a few more weeks, but i went again for the second time yesterday. After hearing Pastor's preaching and also Darren's sharing after that, i was really lifted up. and i think im ready again to take the first step forth. and having Jonas by my side in this makes a lot of difference (although i've never said that to him). i used to think that between the two of us i am the Bible expert, but he always reminded me about faith and love and kindness through his own action- especially when i started to get moody and short tempered and backbitting other people.
updates for today - went for my first ENT class. love the teacher. after class we were just in time to send Sathia for an operation to fix the Ilizarov apparatus on his arm. It touched me to see Sathia so brave and optimistic through this whole thing, not a cell of his being is anywhere near giving up. i pray and hope that he would get through this and come back to the hostel. i miss hearing him play the recorder!
in the evening, i thought of cooking something nice for dinner. i called Sevvanthee to ask her how to make dhalcha. Jonas made that a few times but i was never bothered to learn, my bad. the dhalcha was boiling in the kitchen when Jonas came back from russian class, and since it was hot and heavy, i asked Jonas to go to the kitchen to take it while i stayed in the room. he went, and came back shortly after and asked 'did u really cooked that?' he was so impressed! i dont know whether to be happy or to be insulted that he looked down on my cooking skill.
(an inside thing - i really cant forget about the chair stunt!)

this is wud i call a weekend
a real weekend for me is..... like today. it started yesterday when Jonas and i made sushi, then he joined his guy frens and i watched SATC till i got sleepy. and i slept without setting the alarm clock, and after i woke up i was still on the bed for hours, thinking of what to do and what to cook. ah, something popped into my mind - pineapple fried rice! so that was Jonas, Jacy and my lunch just now, accompanied by jelly and kiwis for desert.
and i washed my block too. apparently the block being dirty happens to Jacy and my problem. i washed it after my exam yesterday and now it is super clean. so clean that the person who made such a big deal of it can sleep there for all i care.
alrighty - photo time! from Jonas surprise birthday cake on Tuesday night.

i saw, I CUT, i conquered !!!
yup, dats exactly wud i did today and for the past two weeks being the faithful disciple of Professor Tsibusof, Alexandro and Ilya Ivanovich who are faithful followers of Pirogoff (big lol!), because i just did my operative surgery exam. i did my best, although i felt like having only a shield of paper when facing Alexandro's gunshot. hahaha.....
so after many weeks, now i have a real weekend!!
it is snowy white out there, because it has been snowing for a few days. nice to see but not really nice to walk around on the snow. i already had a few episodes of 'dancing ballet'. in indication to change to my winter boots soon.
ok, weekend!! to mummy and sisters dearest i'll make up for my long absence in your inbox!

me hearing Timbaland?
see wud i mean? right now the person i was talking about at the previous post is blasting her techno music + making noise incessantly with whoever that is.
so i tried to put on some music to block her noise but my usual lovely songs - like Colbie Cailat, Jason Mraz and Abba just can't block her noise!
luckily i have Jonas' music in my computer so i blasted on Timbaland's noisy huhu haha. how la someone who makes so much noise earn so much money?
so this is the story of how i and Timbaland crossed path.

STFU
just now in class, Kiran taught me a new abbreviation. it's STFU. ok maybe many ppl uses it but i actually dont know about it because im such a sweet and decent person. hahaha....
but just now, i was approached my this particular person who share the same toilet and bathroom with my roommate and i. basically my blockmate la. hahaha.... (who give a damn if she read this anyway? i dont. probably the only thing miss barbie doll can do is get some guy to bash me up, in which i will bash then up first. bloody buggers!). i had a really long day and it was night and i wanted to go back to my room. and guess wud? she probably heard me going back to my room and she came out of her room and said in Russian 'girl, u remember your turn to wash the toilet?' first of all, wud i noticed was she dont even know my name. wud kinda blockmate is this la? i was like 'uhuh' and she was like 'good then, u know wud to do.' whoa.....so some young girl trying to make orders around apparently. she made this redundant timetable of washing the block. i dont mind washing, in fact, Jacy and i was the one who bought the toilet bowl washer, the mop, detergent, and the hanging clothes stuff. which means we care a lot about the hygienic conditions of the block. and she think we are so free like her can wash the toilet at her time. i was too tired but i really should tell to her face just now - STFU!
everyday blasting the sick techno music and have all the funny guys, girls or in between coming making noise in the block. no common sense?
sometimes life is like that - people you want, they are far away. people u dont want, they always appear in front of you. this is my life la. (this does not apply so some selected people btw!)

feeling GOOD
i know it has been days pass my bday, but i've been really busy with operative surgery (i shall not elaborate about that) - but i still wanna post some snaps from my lovely birthday, cuz i have the coolest and loveliest homosapiens as friends here!
after the deepavali celeb, i was on my way back from the hall to the hostel and suddenly Sevvanthee and others appeared with a SUPER BIG AND LOVELY SPONGEBOB CAKE!!!
i was like, oh my spongiebobbie!!!!!! well, who else but Nana who can make something like that. hahaha....
(pics taken from Nana's blog)
and they got me a beautiful ladies' watch. i wonder how they know i wanted one. i've been pestering mummy for one since summer. hahaha, now mummy can give a sigh of relieve!
many times, only your friends and loved ones can really show you how significant you are to them. lately as usual i am having my swing of pathetic mental problems - like im not pretty enough, i am boring, i am not smart enough, i have no nice clothes, my face is ugly, nobody likes me and i just wish i am like this or that person. But these angels in disguise showed me that i am perfect just the way i am. which reminds me - it is not looking good and having everybody thinking good stuff about me that matters, it is me feeling good about myself and loving myself. i think if everyone remembers that there wont be so much unnecessary headache and heartache. hahaha.....
(anyway speaking of headache, my professor asked us just now - how to completely get rid of headache. we gave some suggestions, and he said - no, to completely remove it, we have to decapitate the head! some sense of humor la!)
REWIND REWIND.... the deepavali celeb went really well, at least i get to know some of the first year Indians and some of those girls are soooo pretty and sweet. Jonas was busy serving, so Jacy and i accompanied each other.
a few days later, my parcel arrived!!! like some birthday combo!


i didnt know this was in the parcel too..

i'm sooooo loved!!!!!
Im really feeling the love with all the birthday wishes for all my darling family and friends. and i know my family really misses me right now cuz im the most manja of all!!
Last night Jonas gave me the loveliest birthday dinner! the loveliest of all because he prepared everything all by himself. i was invited to Restaurante El Jonasa at room 402 at 7pm (my birthday in Malaysian time). although i knew he was up to something, i didnt exactly know what it was...but anyway, he made us a lovely candlelight dinner in his room. and on my chair there was a big red shaped balloon with 'l love u' written over it and also hand-folded rose (the same tactic he used to court me last time). There were candles all over the room and a big one on the table. And Mr Jonas was the chef and the waiter for the evening, starting with an appetizer of mushroom soup and followed by our main course, home made lasagna. it was superb!
Anyway, after the dinner and while chitchatting with my personal chef and waiter and enjoying my red wine, my groupies suddenly came barging in with a birthday cake and a birthday song! a lovely surprise, i didnt see that coming. hahaha...... we talked, laughed and as usual disturb Kiran (especially about the gun man)! kisses for u all!
J will be giving me a birthday treat soon! will make a hole in her pocket!!! hahaha.....
woke up this morning with many birthday wishes smses, some through facebook and emails and verbal ones of course from friends here. hahah...really appreaciate every single bit of it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!
yippeee!!! my favourite time of the year! i just love everything about birthday - birthday cake, birthday song, birthday party, birthday card, birthday girl - especially when it is me of course. hahaha.....
well, i guess my only wish for my birthday - to spend time with my family, will only come true in a few years time. but i am much blessed to have God-sent ppl here with me. oh - i also share my birthday with Jonas' dad. November is indeed the time of the year! but too bad, tomorrow we're having the Diwali Celebration. just have to steal my spot light la!
my obstetrics cycle made me realise even more than before about how significant our birthday are, or more precisely, how we are actually born into this world. it made me feel very special and much blessed to be healthy and have every part of my anatomy working well. so i want to specially thank my mum for taking care of me 9 months while i was in your womb and also many months and years after that.
the funny thing was, the 'im-so-macho' Jonas went to watch delivery few days ago which gave him some mental trauma after that. he was like 'a genie just popped out from the women'. and that night, the baby find him in his dreams. wud the heck. hahaha...

Ooops....i love obs!!
today (saturday) is a studying and working day to replace Monday which is a holiday. but for my class we have holiday today since our teacher is a pretty lenient guy (with a cool ringtone!). but anyway some of my groupies and i wanted to spend some time in the maternity house so we got up and went for class. our efforts were paid off because we managed to see some pretty good stuff, including a C-section. if we were willing to stay back, we could have watch one lady giving birth to twins. but then again, have to wait for many hours, no need la...
but nonetheless, i love Obstetrics! i'll put in it my A list of choosing a speciality in the future.
i finally got my green light from the higher authority (mummy) to go for my winter trip to visit Cindy and also to some other places. thanks mummy!!! and double thanks for letting me use your credit card!!! so to papa, Jesmine, Cindy whoever who wanna give me any birthday or Christmas pressie, u guys can do so by sponsoring in some parts of my trip.
