The Purple Sky

"Yesterday is but today's memory, tomorrow is today's dream" - Khalil Gibran

it's just been 3 days and i am already dowright busy. with at least 3 more CFCS visits to be completed, the presentation coming up next week, the loads of things to study..but the good thing is, i'm not at all pressured. not yet at least.

not just yet! not just yet!

our front door light bulb has finally been switched off. (the switch got jammed for two weeks. i was scared the bulb would get too hot and burn the whole house, huhu..talk abt negativities)
and the wicked tree that used to live happily in our balcony's drainage pipe has finally been torn down. yu katta.!
the root was soo thick and mercilessly blocked the pipe, that everytime it rained, the balcony flooded. and it has been raining for days, and the sun had been shyly hiding behind the clouds..so the water basicly never dried up.
it was filthy. and perfect for aedes breeding.





recently, an old school friend asked me; what if he were to meet my parents and propose me? *gulp*. i never see that coming. no way.

not just yet. not just yet!

she : want to go out for dinner?

me : where to?

she : alees's.

me : urm, it's ok. no thanx.

she : good.


moral of the story ; takyah la ajak kalau sekadar nak manis mulut.


Aya : Today I had dream

Asou : A dream?

Aya : Before, in my dreams, I was able to walk, run and move about freely. Just like the first time I met Asou-kun. But you know, today’s dream wasn’t the same. I was…sitting in a wheelchair. In the dream I was..my body..was handicapped. As for my body, even if I intend to admit that, deep in my heart, I don’t want to admit it. This is just me being tough, right?

Asou : Is it okay if I say what I’m feeling right now? I don’t know what’s going to happen in the
future. But right now what I’m feeling is not 100% lie. I can say that with confidence. For me, as long as its you saying it it doesn’t matter how slow you’re saying it, I’ll still listen. If u can’t talk over the phone then I’ll come over to see you, just like this. I’m not a dolphin. You, you’re also not a dolphine. If u want to walk, no matter how slow it’ll be, I’ll walk with you. Right now, I may not be reliable. But one day, I’ll be able to help. Things can’t be the same as they were before but there’s this feeling that’s linking us together. I don’t think we're living in a different world. I with regards to you, I like you. Maybe.

This is one drama that touches the warmest spot in my heart, set forth trains of thoughts and gives inspiration beyond explanation.

It's about a girl (Ikeuchi Aya) who was diagnosed with a disease called Spinocerebellar degeneration when she was 15 years old, and was able to continue her life until her death at the age of 25 years old. She kept writing in her diary to remember her experiences until she could no longer hold a pen. Aya simply wished to live until the end of her life, and the purpose of writing in the diary was to remind herself to not give up. She shed tears many times, at the same time encompassed by the rich love and support from her family and friends.
Her diary 1 Litre of Tears was published shortly before her death. It encouraged many people, healthy or diseased, because of its inspiring and courageous messages. As Aya wrote, "Just being alive is such a lovely and wonderful thing."
And the plot is actually based on the true story of a Japanese girl named Aya Kitou, (July 19, 1962-May 23,1988), who had the same disease.

Original 1litre of tears diary by Aya Kitou

***************************

And aahhh..as the title itself implies, I did shed 1 litre of tears (if not more) while watching the whole 11 episodes. I cried until my head hurts, and my eyes were swollen to such extent that when Zma saw me, she thought I had both my eyes stung by ants or something, hahaa...

I suppose I may never want to watch this drama again because I will surely succumb to dehydration this time.

I'm such a crybaby, I know...

heee..how long has it been..? 10 days? 2 weeks? its been long i know.. but the past 10 days had been so full i do not know how to sum everything up into fine sentences. had my week long break last week, dell and dija and the rest finishing the exam and passing them in all shades of colours flying in the air..which means they’ll be moving to batu pahat for the last leg of their 5 years medical school. they’re now just 1 step behind to finishing med school. that fast. isn’t that a wow. and i think it’s going to be sad not to have them around anymore, sleeping on my bed, parasiting my house for days, clearing the stocks of food in the fridge and all..hahaha... (i know i’ll be dead if they read this..=P) *sigh* i’m seriously gonna miss them.

then me going back to taiping for 4 days for the CNY holidays and i still doesn’t understand why all holidays has to end, huhu.. and we had abang who rarely gets the chance to cuti at home as well so it was definitely a perfect balik kampung break. rase mcm tak mau balik seremban langsung dah. and yesterday i had my minor postings exam. questions from all 4 postings (ophthalmology, dermatology, ENT, emergency medicine) cramped into 2 deadly mcq and ospe papers. and right now i’m sitting by the clock, counting the hours to go before i’m officially a final year med student.

and one last thing, i’m now a mcFly addict, hehe..

it was dija who got me to listen to their current hit, ‘it’s all about you’. then cherrap got me tuning to the songs ‘just my luck’ and ‘sorry is not enough’, which eventually led me to searching and downloading all their current and earlier albums. and before i know it, i found myself listening and humming their songs non-stop at home, in campus,, and even while setting branulas on my patients. luckily my patients tak freak out n kata ‘gila ke doctor ni’ or something like that..hehe..

and hah.. the other day we had a cardiac emergency practicals. we had to practice reacting promptly and correctly to given cardiac emergency cases on Mr. Sim the simulator man (who can breath, have pulse and and can go into cardiac arrest) well, at the and of the practice session, my Mr Sim died, which was sad. it had me promised to myself that I will just have to do better next time if i9 don’t want to see real patients becoming lifeless because of my own hands in the future. hmm..

some of the things dell left me before moving out;





















bantal dgn kad fotostat kat library pun ada, hahaha..


their now empty house, *sigh*


the other day, on the 2nd day of CNY celeb, the Chinese residents of the huge house beside our apartment threw a CNY party. every year, they will set off fireworks ( the big flashy fireworks we only see during independence day n new year tu..), and every year jugak i only get to see only a portion of the fireworks since my balcony does not totally face their house. and i really hate it. sbb how many times u get the chance to watch fireworks right in front of ur nose kan.? dari jauh2 ke, kat tv ke, tu biasalah.
so this year, i set my camera right from the beginning, and put my tudung aside so that when the show starts, i can simply run to the other side of the apartment to watch and maybe ehmm..snap a picture or two. i even imagined putting the nice firework pics in the blog,, weeee....
at 8.30pm, i heard some loud noises. it has started! i put on my tudung and sweater haphazardly and practically run out in my baju kelawar. and there it was…*swooooon*….cantik. as i was about to snap a pic, i realized i had put the batt upside down, so the camera can’t be turned on. huk ala! as i was deseperately trying to put it right…,, it ended. huhuhu..so no pics for me, cheisss..but at least i finally got to see it, hehh.
