MARYAM’S BEST OF 2009 LIST(please forgive the lameness)

**

Best Movie.

Confessions of a shopaholic.

That was one phenomenal movie I felt somehow,deeply connected to it. I laughed so hard, it was ridiculous. Yet amazing.

You have to watch it I INSIST! cos well,as I said,it was ridiculously amazing.

Best lines.

Because when I shop, the world gets better. The world is better. And then it’s not anymore. And I need to do it again.

Isla Fisher(the main actress) is trending in my watch-lists.

And the lead actor,he’s just SO…English. :’)

Have I told ya’, Imma’ sucker for British boys? ha ha. One of my deepest secrets revealed.

ps/ and yes,even Jacob Black was not as appealing. Shocked to hear from me? Exactly.

||*||

Best Book.

The Outsiders by SE Hinton

Been months since I finished reading but till now,I could remember vividly the scenes that I love, I could actually feel what the writer wanted to deliver.The story was so real I felt like reading a movie,if that’s even possible.

Here’s an excerpt.

That was his silent fear then-of losing another person he loved. I remembered how close he and Dad had been, and I wondered how I could ever have thought him hard and unfeeling. I listened to his heart pounding through his T-shirt and knew everything was going to be okay now. I had taken the long way around,but I was finally home. To stay.

If you notice,the cover said “The Original Teenage Rebel Story”,which pretty sums up everything. Well, maybe not all.

||*||

Best Friend.

lmao. I did not just type that did I?

So childish of me,scratch that.

||*||

Best Restaurant.

I am tempted to say Pizza Hut but then again,Pizza has always been my favourite so the award goes to….

OldTown White Coffee.

Anna did me us a great service when she introduced it and for that, thank yous!

Best Song.

Oliver James-Long Time Coming.

I know I am so last century, but this is my list,so… –Shrugs-

Proof? Here.If you’d promise not to drool.

A very beautiful song.So is the singer.

||*||

Best Month.

December.

Hoho. I love holidays. And the idea of travelling. When I am rich enough I would fly to England and spend three months there.

ps/ and because I truly forgot what happened in the months before….

and last but not least, the Best Procrastinator belongs to….. ahem.

ME

Caffeine/Shopping.

I was scrutinizing my blog last night(if you noticed the labels I've just put) when something hit me. And it was called realization.

There wasnt a post tagged with 'Medicine' or 'Educational Stuffs' and er,I was kind of ashamed,just thinking about that.

When I first crawled into this field,I thought I could make use of my writing(not that they're any good anyway) into something beneficial to the mankind. Ops. Exaggeration.

So here it is,(at least I'm trying).

Let me start with a really simple fact.

1)That caffeine is a diuretic agent.

How does it work? It promotes excretion of salts,followed by water from the kidney thus increases the volume of urine.In case you're wondering whyever(if that even a word) you consume caffeinated drinks you'd feel like going to the loo frequently.

SO,do not take it before you're going out let's say,shopping.Who knows when you're in the middle of trying out really cool fancy pants whatsoever and you suddenly feel the urge to pee?

Sure it will ruin the mood,will it not?

I am sure there are lotsa things caffeine affects but that's the one point I am proudly know of and comfortable talking about.

**

You could write lotsa junk but to produce a piece worth reading....Well it wasnt so easy was it?

And I am ever sorry that,that is so superficial maybe next next next(you get the idea,do you) time I'd write more.

Confessions.

1)I am so updating my blog 'cause I hated to see it deep down at the bottom of your cool people's lists. :')



2)Homesick Level 10. Degree of Severity 99.9%.



3)And I feel like I dont know how to study Anatomy anymore. HA. Let us just hope/pray someone(Azhana) will come to my rescue during PBL's tomorrow.



4)I am actually overwhelmed by the fact that Neopets has upgraded their limit of Score Sent per days,up to 10 people,1o!! (Previously you could only send 3 Scores per days)

********

Verily,in the rememberance of Allah do hearts find peace....

baby and I

This is on account of missing you,you lil monster.('Cause last night while conversing with Mama,I heard him laughed his carefree laughter I just wanna fetch a plane and go squeezing him)

2 years ago.
Mama had had a course at Port Dickson.
Me and the rest of siblings went too,to babysit him.
Yes,pictures.

He looked so young(of course) so peaceful and so..innocent while asleep...




But dont you get fooled!
Just,look at those 'evil' eye and smile...
no offence kiddo,I love you really!

After a hard day of work(what,indulged ourself in the pool,played with the baby and tried so hard to please him and oh-waited for God knows for how long for Mama's meeting to end) we all went out to dine!

With the Principal,all all Mama's friends...

The best thing was,Baby was sleeping the whole agenda.

In Mama's safe arms.



Sorry for the quality of the pics,please blame my poor cellphone back then.
More to come!
You'll see how he had changed,becoming a decent fellow he is right now!haha.

this is where emotion flares.

Know that one's coming,but never thought of actually seeing it with my own eyes.(or rather,reading the text pertaining the subject.)

The news just got me speechless,like my vocal cords has somehow gone twisted and the vocabs just...disappeared. SO I shall let my hands do the talking....

Seriously,if it was anyone else,just,anybody but him,I'd be gushing with Aaaaw's and Aaaah's and would be delighted,without further ado,tell the world about it,'cept it was kind of heart-breaking,in a way.

You know what the cliche part is?That,he USED to be my hero.
And right now this moment,he's not even close.
Funny how things turned out to be.(if you notice the sarcasm)
I am not bitter,but I have seen better days.
(Quoted :Bitter,by Teddy Geiger)

I rest my case.

**

OH HOW I WISH I could join my family right now(they're up there in the North,calling on my grandma) T_T
I hope you guys have a splendid time,do not forget my ole-ole and have a safe journey for I cannot afford to lose any one of you.

ps. When destiny calls,you must be strong.

in the end,

We're just the same.

Being a doctor is just like,being a waiter in a sense that,when you come to a restaurant, you want to fulfill your stomach(by loading it with your fave food) and you choose the menu.

Let's say the special menu are Roti Canai Spesel and Nasi Lemak Spesel.
And you had to choose one only.
You'll ask the waiter,'which one is recommended?more delicious?yummy2?'

The waiter will say,'Oh the recipe of this Roti Canai Spesel is imported from Benggali,very tasty,less cholesterol,bla bla'

And for Nasi Lemak? (You ask)

'For this one,our chef has been specializing in making Nasi Lemak for his whole life.He's just the best in the town,and you also can add-on anything you want,bla bla'

'Ohhhh -saliva increases,you start to drool- I'm so very confused,I cant make up my mind right now.Can I come back later?Need to discuss it with my lawyer' (You wake up from your seat,mouth-watered)

**

Did you get what I'm saying? (Or am I just being my usual confused self?)

***

The above is just an analogy.

Doctors dont play God,in fact they're not even semi/quarter God.They just use their skills,with guides,&offer the services to people in need.
Patients have their rights to know the conditions of their illnesses,they shouldnt be kept in the dark.
Doctors need to acknowledge,discuss the treatment plans with them.
And,do not influence them.Give 'em options,and respects what they want.

And,wake up.
You're not the cream of the crops.
But the stupidest among the stupids. (Quoted from our Doc)
Think you're Special when you have a certain Title before your name?

THINK AGAIN.
we're just the same. homo sapiens. humans.
&after all we look the same in the dark.

ps/I really shoudnt make a habit out of this should I(lazy,named the titles with numbers).

Baby Girl Scott

A 1987 tearjerker movie about a couple with a premature baby
not just any baby,she has the Apgar score of 2(if I'm not mistaken) and IVH(Intravascular Haemorrhage) of 4th grade.
What with collapsed lungs,possiblities of blindness,mental retardation and the docs still wanna let her live?
What kind of life would she lead?
SO many medical ethics were questioned
And tomorrow we're going to have a small group discussion,with regards of the movie.
Have I told you,it's a debate-style?
Oh oh.
OHHH.

Wah.This is a brief one,'cause,because,because Because I Said So!

ha! truth be told,I felt blank.

#1

...
couldnt be bothered to think of a title..

I missed my halcyon days at high school :( Where I was free,did whatever I wanted,not afraid of anything and in my own ways,craved for the knowledge,loved seeking for it. The fact that I had to use past tense for that made me sick.I was young,reckless and maverick back then.How/when did I change,to hell I didnt know.

When I was 17,I made an effort to drive myself towards getting the results I wanted for SPM.It was sort of an email from Cristiano Ronaldo(what with being the rising star,played for Portugal and actually made it to the world cup final-he seemed like the best idea at the moment),filled with words(as if he’s the one sending it to me) of encouragement(yeah) and I put it in my wardrobe,each time I felt like wasting my time in the locker I’d see the paper(I remember the beautiful pink frame) and would feel guilty if I hadn’t study for that particular day.

I know I need to come up with something beautiful,engaging even to make me enjoy my studies even more.Think I’ve found the solution.

Mind mapping.

It helps to show you a crystal image of the ‘big picture’.Instead of copying everything,why not put it up only in few words,the review of a chapter learnt?So far,this thing is doing me good.

I am

Royally pissed of at,at my browsers-ALL of 'em 'cause every time I wanted to upload something,they crashed.

I thought you were different,Google Chrome.You disappointed me greatly,it proved you were just a pretty face,after all.Just exactly as I predicted.

and Internet Explorer is so hard to please-always have,always been.

&let's not start with Firefox. Mine was a lost cause :')

due to that I wont be able to show off the photos(of my baby bro Danyel/NyelNyel/Buncit) I've just Photoscaped. :(

Oh,wanna continue with the anatomy of Small Intestine.

bai bai.

ps/ anyone has the same problem?has it been solved?

EDITED.
SOLUTION(S); it's either viral infection/they(browsers) hate you. get an antivirus(like kaspersky 2010 and for the latter,I am afraid there's nothing I could do).

meet me

Calling out all my mates out there,whomever got nothing better to do this weekend to the most anticipated event of this year(next to new moon,of course), to Kefor(Carefoure/Carrefor/Carrefour),Ampang.

Do come,we are organizing a Clinical Booth there and I WORK ON SATURDAY EVENING.

Benefits;
1)Know your health status.
2)Counselling
3)Shopping
4)And as I said up there,Meet Me.We could have a walk down memory lane XD

ps. Lectures for straight FOUR(4) hours tomorrow. Aku Pasrah Dengan Segalanya. Need to put some steel on my back bone.

ps 2. Still manage to steal some time reading The Promise(by Danielle Steel) in these critical days. What happened to 'I promise to relax relax only at the weekends'? Gone with the wind,perhaps.

Okbye.
