This summer

Hi people!

Summer in here,

Its getting hot, and sweaty. In paediatrics round, we have our clinical rounds in the morning at syatby hospital, which is about 2 kilometres away from my house, i really don't know how many is actually 2 km, but it looks that far for me. Sometimes i walk myself home, but most of the time i took a cab. Either way, it is still hot and sweaty.



With a lot of sun, comes the tan and wrinkles. I tried to get away from that, by walking home wearing a cap, u know, my germany world cup cap, but it was white. I don't wanna stain it. I love that cap! it holds memory of our crazy football days ;) plus people are giving weird looks, u know, tudungs doesn't get along really well with caps. So i got myself an umbrella instead, but it still doesn't work out, cause you see, my house is near the beach, so the wind is giving my umbrella a lot of resistance, so i can't use it either.



There's no way u can survive summer without at least deodorant, i mean, if u planned to survive while smelling pleasant. I really wish that there is actually a rule to take an effective shower before going to see your doctor, i mean, we have rules to brush our teeth before going to a dentist right? so we should have one for going to hospitals too. Kesian la at the doctors and students and interns.



Today is soo hot, i caught myself giving murderous look at my hair. Talking about hair, i bought myself a new shampoo, i think this one is gooood, and cheap as well. Costs 3 times less than my old one. I guess "New, is aaalways better" :)



and Yesterday, i went to orchid, but they were closed :( so i had lunch at coffee bean instead. I hope they're not closed forever, that's like my favourite ever restaurant, here. Orchid is super sedap, well, not everything, but if you order the right thing, it is! I already hafal their names, sedih la if closed :(



This summer is making me fat, i think i'm gaining fats on my cheeks, but my weight doesn't change. I think its the muscle weight more that fat thingy. Think i'm losing muscle and gaining fat. Is there even such a thing? Cause lately, i'm always hungry and feeding myself.


Hmm, its been quite sometime, my hardees should be here, later peeps :)

Paediatrics babies

Hi peeps!

So, i'm already 2 days into paediatrics rotation now. It was ok, i kinda like the paediatrics ward. They seems personalize it to fit with the patients. There were mickey mouse, donald duck, tweety, and many other cartoon characters on the walls, some drawings are educating the children to brush their teeth, to wash their hands and stuff, i think they're cute, and the tweety even helped me find my way to the ward this morning.


I couldn't recall, which floor was my class, but luckily enough, i remembered how tweety was on the wall of a floor below my class's floor. So i didn't get lost today. I had always been directionally challenged, even in my 2nd year, i still find myself a little lost on my way to the morgue, which i regularly went to, for 2 years already at the time. I'm clumsy like that.


In paediatrics, our patients are kids, and being kids, they cries a lot, sometimes they got cranky, which makes examinations and inspection a lot harder than they already are, but i think sweets will win them. Even the professors seems a lot nicer here. Dealing with kids does makes u a better person, or is it the other way around? It is sad though to see the kids, down with diseases, when they should be out playing and giving their mommies a hard time cleaning up the mess. Lets wish them well, shall we?

Post-exam wishlist *kinda

Hello people!

I was just done with Ortopeadic OSCE exam this morning. Yesterday it was an MCQs and presentations, and in 2 days, i'll be having Obstetrics and gynecology OSCE's exam. Pray for me yah?


I really can't wait to get back to my lazy-no-exam-self. A lot of stuffs are building in my after-exam-to-do list. I've got movies to catch, grocery shopping to do, great foods that i miss, and i even had a dream of buying a cake this evening, why didn't i eat it in my dream when i got the chance? Why did i even buy it if i wasn't gonna eat it? I really don't understand myself. Sometimes, i wanted something so bad, i'd go all out to get it, but when i have it. It didn't look as tempting anymore. I think its all about the chase, i love the challenge of getting stuff, not actually the stuff itsef. Its really tiring and pointless even, so I have to tell myself at all times to behave. All this cravings should stop,but they never really did stop. I just can't listen to myself.


So, I've been reserving all these movies for after the exam, ok, i wasn't really reserving, i got people to download it for me, but they won't pass it over yet, at least not untill the exam is over. See, i got people watching over for me, or else, i'll just watch it regardless of the exam.

rodrick is too handsome, i really don't mind him wearing eyeliner

i wanna watch insidous too, but i don't wanna post a scary poster on my blogpost. Have u watched them? I hope they are worth dowloading,hee, u should go watch them too.

Ok, back to books! :P

Sigh, i did my presentation badly today. Sorry guys. I was too nervous, the podium was very tall, i don't think people can see me. Gosh! why did i get so nervous about.



but i got costa today, thanx Ella n Jaja, u guys are awesome.

Hello There beauty-junkies

Hi there!


Its a saturday, unfortunately satuday is not a holiday for us medical students of Alexandria University, we only have one day off of school weekly, year round, a friday. Now, u get why people goes around telling medical students "tak de life". No biggie its been 4 years now, and still, nobody went crazy yet.


By the way, apparently The body shop is having sale, last time i checked it was, and i think it still is. The usual buy 2 get one free, but this time its their vitamin A, E, and C range, not the usual body skincare, so u beauty junkies should go check it out. It was very tempting, but my skin just wouldn't agree with them, so i didn't get any.


Actually i was writing this post to share this website that i usually refer to before buying any skin related stuff. Cause, i've been such a reckless shopper before, in my desperation to get good skin, i just go on buying stuffs that sounds like it would work, when actually they didn't. Which leaves you penniless, with jars and tubes of crap.


So, to avoid all these complications, i would go online researching for reviews of products before buying them. It is a review site, where u can read many user's experience with the product, but still everyone have different reactions to different products, but to have a picture, i suggest u go on browsing for reviews first.


So this is it, Makeupalley u can just type in the product, and u'll probably find tons of reviews, cause there are so many people using the site, u even might have used it already, and if u know a better place, do tell me. Its a lot of work, but it really is educating, i'm an addict myself, i enjoy reading reviews. I know, its hard being a girl.


So that's it, thank you for reading :)

of 21st May 2011

Last friday was beautiful, as early as 12 a.m. i've been getting calls, comments, messages, wishing me the best for my 21st anniversary. My lovely aunt and cousins even wished me 2 days earlier, i bet they're more anxious than i am.


I'm crazy about birthdays, even crazier when its mine. sigh, i'll never be one of the people, who naturally forgots their own birthday. I can't imagine how did they do that, but that must've been fun, having someone else reminding u of your birthday.


So, I was really looking forward to THE day, even since the first of May, i know, really can't wait to get old la this girl.

Then, finally friday came, but on the contrary it actually felt a little sad, cause u know, its days like this that u would like to spend with ur most important person in the whole wide world, your family. After all the distance, i could only wait for that one phone call, wishing me Happy Birthday.

It was 12 a.m, egypt time, and that was when i got the most wishes, i was actually sleeping, cause i was expecting my mom or my sis to call me when it was 12 malaysia time, but that, didn't happen. So i was grumpy, i went to bed early.Then I wake up to a birthday call, and to my suprise, my housemates were preparing for a little party. There were our pictures all over the walls, and balloons, printed balloons saying happy birthday.



every year pon kna blindfold

thanx girls :')



They even made my name spelled on the wall. It was a very pretty sight, and there was this gorgeous cake, sitting on the dining table.


too pretty right?ella made this, and i get to keep the barbie :)



we made the best bbq ever

We had our picture taken, have cake, and then have barbeques together. It was fun! and then i got my call, it was about 2 a.m. We finished late. I remember smilling, trying very hard to get back to sleep afterwards, and i know for sure i'm getting a big panda eyes tomorrow.

The morning came, and it went really wrong at first, my face got all red after washing. I might have over-exfoliated my skin the night before, that it burned upon contact with anything i put on. It was awful, and i got a lunch afterwards. Thank god, it subsides after few hours, or else it would have ruined my pictures, and lesson learnt, never! to exfoliate a day before an important day. I had lots and lots of good food, that day, until i was so full i had to go home.

It was fun.


lots and lots of good food

and that was most of it. I'm sorry this is such a long post. I had to describe everything, so i could relive the memory afterwards. Thank you for reading :)

Of The coffee bean and tea leaf :)

Hi there!

I've been away for a while, thought of a post yesterday, but my internet died on me, i know, i have the worsstt timing. I really wanna write on my birthday, but i don't have the pictures, ella does, and she's probably asleep right now, so i'm just gonna write about today.


We went out to settle my internet, and on the way we stopped by The coffee bean & tea leaf. Actually, they're not even on the way, we just thought we should try the new place.




It was this beautiful place by the mediterranian sea. The food was ok, i love their red velvet cake, one bite, and i'm hooked, ella seems to love them too, and she is not easy to please, so it should be really good. The frosting was so gooodd :)

redvelvetcake

They also have this ice blended that was good, but it was too finely blended,but i like my mocha crunchy, so i would prefer costa. Don't like their chai tea. Overall, i think the food is ok, and the place is cute cause u can watch sunset while having ur meal, but i won't suggest going on weekends as its gonna be a bit busy.

love
