Merry Xmas everyone and this also means we now paving our way to year 2009!
What have I done in year 2008? Hmm....''fight'' in for the ''war'' in June, mostly. Yes that was the big part of my year 2008. And then 2008 is an important year for me as I struggled from living as a student to a pre-reg trainee, and I'm in working class now! No, it's not something to be happy bout, still prefer student life.
Cant wait for the trip to Bristol-London. And of course, let's get on with the once-a-year Boxing day!!!!!!
Wish everyone Merry christmas and a Happy New Year and stay happy & healthy always!

Life is short
As usual, working on Saturday and cant wait for tonight, as Christmas dinner waiting for me at home. All the way home, I couldnt stop thinking bout the food. Reached home and on my laptop.
A msn message by my sis popped up. Must be gossip again. No, unfortunately it's not. It's about someone passed away. My heart sunk. A relative of mine. She's not a close relative of mine but alot of images of her flashed through my mind. She used to visit alot of places and my grandma's house is one of her favourite stops. She used to teach us alot of things. And I remember her laughter, which is still so fresh in my mind now. Once I was still teenager and about going to school, she asked me to take a pic of myself. Well, I was so reluctant to do so as u know why. (Teenager with nerdy spec and "too proper'' hair). She told me ''Dont be shy to take a pic of urself so you can look back this pic when ur a grown up. And so ya, i was kinda forced to take it in front of grandma's house with books and the nerdy faceand I didnt smile. And I dont regret taking the pic now. She was right.
All I can remember is she was so healthy and fit and can go wherever she wanted at her age that time. I cant imagine her being sick really. Now that I received the news only that I remember I heard once from my parents that she was sick, but that was long time ago and I didnt know how sick she was. And I cant believe I wont see her forever now.
Life is too short. You just have to appreciate everything from the second you're born.
And do rest in peace.

Homebound
Reading blogs of my siblings makes me think of my childhood again. I dont know what others think of me, whether I'm a really homebound person or not. But I know myself. Deep down inside of me, I'm a really homebound person.
Since young, my parents always know I'm not as active as other kids. I like to "stick'' at home and I wasnt like other kids who like to hang out with their friends most of the time. Mom used to ask me to mix with friends. I have had always told myself that I must mix around since young, I know I cant ''stick'' at home forever. Whenever I went on a trip, be it school trip or graduation trip, in which it would be just few days maximum of leaving home, I would still be missing my home so much. I dont know why. My parents....grandma...siblings....aunts etc. And I looked around, my friends, I did figure out they were not like me.
And now here I am, living in UK without any of them. Is that called Independent? I'm not sure. But I really miss my childhood. I really wish the clock would just stop there when I was young. When I was still playing around with bro and sis, and cousins. As usual, whenever I came back here from Malaysia I would try to get rid of the sad feelings and tried to hold on my tears. I know I shouldnt be thinking negatively, but I do sometimes worry how much more time that I could spend with them as I might be working here for few years time and not seeing them much especially my grandma. I like to be around her, always.
I really miss being at home.
Guess this is just another emotional post.

Ish!!!
I did experience a day of feeling shouting at the pharmacist, for the first time. I've always been a quite patient person but there was a pharmacist (a locum, obviously) just put me off! A well gentleman with quite posh accent,he is, well....at least from his look.
2 pharmacists were in as my tutor was on holiday. He came in and the first thing he did was talking to another pharmacist. We were unusually busy that day and I was typing while dispensing. Everyone in the dispensary was like running here and there except him, standing still with the mouth moving. I didnt expect him to help us alot, but, at least can he just shut his mouth and put away some of the stocks??!!! Just a lil help, maybe just put away one box or 2 box of medicines is enough to show he's helping us. He didnt even bother! One of the dispensers got fed up and said ''excuse me, can u guys give us a help pls? '' of course he did walk towards us and seemed quite willingly to help us.
He walked closer to us and start talking again. What's the point? just changed the spot of talking??!!! Went out for cigarettes like for 6 times in a day? And another pharmacist supposed to go home before him and he actually dared to ask is it possible to stay another 5 mins while he go out to have some cigarettes.....can u actually believe that???!!!
Another pharmacist cover for my tutor on Friday, as usual, to catch up with the MUR. My tutor told me the pharmacist was like his grannies. Ya, indeed. lol. One more thing, he LOVES typing! During my tutor's lunchtime, tutor arranged me, a dispenser, and him in the dispensary and I was the one who supposed to type (well, coz I type real fast...hehe). And we were so ''lucky'' to have so many scripts at that moment and I tried to help them by dispensing some of them and left the few of the baskets for the "granny" to check. I've always thought the first priority of pharmacist is checking the medicines and signing them, surprisingly, he moved aside the baskets that I've done and went to type labels instead. He must have applied the wrong job!!! I really dont mind of he's a fast typer, but he was as slow as snail by pressing one tab by one tab...imagine that! But I did feel it was funny when the dispenser was so stress and asked him to get off the computer! Lol. unfortunately he didnt hear that.
By da way, the weather now has gone insanely cold! Need to spend more on moisturisers and lotions :(

Starbucks rehab needed
Seriously I have no idea how I came bout to this Starbucks addiction. Not towards da drinks as other ppl do but da food, especially their panini. It all started with mini toasted sandwiches with ham and cheese. It sounds...or perhaps it's totally easy to be prepared by oneself. But I'm not too sure what's happening here...I just feel like having something from Starbucks every morning when I go to work coz it's located at the bus station. Or maybe this is one of da diseases I've got from working?
From mini toasted sandwiches upgraded to bacon and egg panini the other day. I just couldnt resist it! I was trying to find excuses to buy da panini. I'm going for training day soon so the dinner and breakfast included and paid by company so it's not too bad if I spend some money in starbucks rite? Believe me, the bacon and egg panini was the best panini ever! Well, I'll try to make it myself instead of sending money to Starbucks I guess.....if i'm not lazy. Today was my day off and still the first thought that came to my mind was Starbucks again when I felt hungry!
It's expensive I know to spend everyday at Starbucks so I really wondering when will the addiction end? Pls send me to Starbucks rehab.
By da way, uk weather skipped autumn and now go straight to winter so all my mind is bout food. Ya, I live to eat.

Alive
Yeah...it's been more than one month that I got totally disconnected from the world out there. Want to know how's the life like without internet? It was suffering at first....and surprisingly we sort of like get used to the condition when we didnt have internet. So what did i do for the past more than 1 month then? Work, of course, which is endless.
Well, after work, the thing we could do without internet other than studying would be chatting. Yes, me and my housemates started to chat once we stepped into the house. Chatted when we cooked till we finished the dinner and continued chatting till the time we felt it was time to sleep only we went for shower and slept. So why it took so long for the internet to settle then? First we wanted virgin broadband but we havent got fibre optic and then one of my housemates who's an irish...I mean an irish GUY (that's what he always corrected us that it never ends with irish, the correct phrase should be irish lad/lass)...he suggested to get sky tv package which includes broadband. Well not really into the programmes here but not a bad idea to get one though. And then we checked with our agent to confirm we can install sky tv. We phoned sky as soon as we got the good news from agent. Appointment was made 1 week later. They didnt turn up. The reason was that they couldnt find our house, how stupid they are that couldnt they just ask anybody on the street? It's Bigg Market, there's always someone on the street! Right, another appointment made 1 week later. I was really looking forward to the installation that day as I was on my day off. The sky man came and told me there was no signal detected and we couldnt get sky. Brilliant!!! We then discussed and suggested to get O2 braodband which is quite cheap and with the fastest speed. Then our friend told us we actually had sky broadband that we didnt activate it. How smart right? We tried and that's why I can write a blog right now! Anyway, the sky man gonna come and check thoroughly again and if we really cant get sky tv then we need to cancel the broadband and get another broadband. So I'm enjoying much while I can b4 another long wait!!!
Moving to Newcastle is totally a different life I would say. Sunderland, indeed, is very peaceful. I like Newcastle though espcecially in the morning when you can see everybody is rushing to work and they're just like me who need to wake up so early to go work. So I'm not lonely! Didnt have this feeling when I was living in Sunderland. So first week our dinner was all about KFC as we didnt settle down yet in which we still have a huge addiction to KFC.
To update some bits bout me : My face has bloated, which is very annoying me at the moment, anyone can help? any remedies? any therapy?
No photos of my new room currently so maybe next post! BE PATIENT!
By da way, that's what I like to tell the Patients to be PATIENT !

Goodbye, My beloved room
Cant believe I'm going to leave Summerhill soon. Seriously I will miss this house very much! I've packed my stuff whole day today and am feeling sad throughout the day. I keep telling myself it's just a room and why should I feel sad leaving the room? It's weird I know but this feeling just indescribable. I looked through every corner, every little bit of this room today and thinking that I will not be back here anymore.
I've been staying here since 3rd year. Just 2 yrs of staying here making me liking this room so much ? I should have been here earlier, I should have discovered this comfy room during first year. This room is like a second home to me, ya the room is the second home as I spent most of the time in it. I think I must be crazy, thinking that I will not be back to this room anymore is making my tears rolling down my cheeks. The feeling is like leaving someone very close to you. Apart from my real home back in Malaysia, this is the first room that I'm really happy to stay and satisfied bout it.
Will I have the chance to stay in another room like this in the future? Will there be second Summerhill ? Still, I have to wave goodbye to her (My room). Will you miss me, my room?
I miss you, room 2.
