i know i'll sound corny writing this.

p/s: for those who knows me out there, now u know how corny i am. so i'm warning u once and for all. if u think u can't handle this, then start typing something else on the search bar right now or forever hold ur peace.

it's not even 11 yet and i'm sitting here in front my pc feeling sleepy and bored as ever and can't even recall what i did the whole day today.. (ahh..just remembered, must be the futsal game earlier, cess..) and because i haven't written a single word for my gynae portfolio yet and sleeping is not even an option in my current state so i ended up googling this - how to know you're in love? yea..yea..this might raise an eyebrow here there but no, i'm not in love.. i'm just curious. hehh.

there were plenty of answers - different people with their own version of describing the state of - being in love; however these are my favourites. en joy!



~ You know you're in love when there is no hesitation in expressing yourself. When you feel you can share anything and everything. When you are not anxious about making a commitment. Mostly, you don't feel the need to look around for greener pasture. You don't think that maybe the next man you meet may be better. You are willing to check this relationship out...see where it goes ~


~ You know you're in love when you feel like the one you're with was made for you by God himself. They're designed to be your other half and you question everything in your life that has every happened up until the point you meet them and everything in your life changes ~

~ True love is a choice. True love is when you care about someone else more than you care about yourself. It's when you would rather make them happy than make yourself happy. ~


*winks!*

and oh ya..speaking of the things i did.. i just remembered something else - i sneaked into the OT aka operation theatre today during an ongoing surgery without the permission of the working surgeon - to peek into a patient's case note in order to help a friend write her portfolio case, hehee..




nguahh..nguahh.. i'm a detached intellectual... i got to go live in an isolated lab la pas nih..

if i had to choose between this and this....


















that's easy. obvious answer isnt' it?
ok now lets try a harder task.
choose either....


this national heartthrob - no need introduction here kan?


this guy with a killer smile- aaron aziz (too bad he's married, huhu..)


or this heart melter, knee trembler, hypertension inducer, sleep depriver.. gong yoo..



aahhhhh...... men. *ok2..don't get distracted* harder to choose, (betul?) each one with own qualities..yada2.. plus..,

they aren't real life situation, so choosing any won't affect one life as much..
so now.. i have this..



and having to choose between all these:



it helps if one knows exactly what he/she wants..but its driving me nuts because i'm not entirely too sure what i want myself.

to stay close with family? or to stay away..? to start over at a new place but with (possibilities) of having to live alone..? to stay close with family? to choose a place with good reputation? or to a place where i think i'll have the widest learning opportunities?

at the same time, there's this question.. what if i'm not given the place i choose? what if there's too many people choosing to go to that same place that i ended up on the free market aka di lelong?

i love to think myself as adventurous wanting to go far2 away for a new life.. but then again.. i kept thinking.. is it really okay to go? am i being selfish to put family behind and think of me first? haaaihhh... penat fikir ok..

I seriously had to put this up here. here's some article that were circulated in the mails-these two were taken from jimbo's blog.


Article 1


Stop drinking water was left or stored in the car!!

This is how Sheryl Crow got breast cancer. She was on the Ellen show and she said this same exact thing.

So please be very careful ladies.Drinking Bottled Water kept in car….

A friend whose mother recently got diagnosed with breast cancer. The doctor told her: women should not drink bottled water that has been left in a car. The doctor said that the heat and the plastic of the bottle have certain chemicals that can lead to breast cancer.

So please be careful! Do not drink that water bottle that has been left in a car. Pass this on to all the women in your life. This information is the kind we need to know and be aware and just might save us!!!!

The heat causes toxins from the plastic to leak into the water and scientists have found these toxins in breast tissue. Use a stainless steel canteen or a glass bottle when you can!!!





Article 2
A 10 year old boy had eaten pineapple about 15 days back, and fell sick, from the day he had eaten. Later when he had his health check done…

Doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS. His parents couldn’t believe it…

The the entire family underwent a check-up…none of them suffered from AIDS.

So the doctors checked again with the boy if he had eaten out…

The boy said “yes”, he had eaten pineapple that evening. Immediately a group from the Malaya Hospital went to the pineapple vendor to check. They found the pineapple seller had a cut on his finger while cutting the pineapple and his blood had spread into the fruit. They checked him and the guy was suffering from AIDS… but he himself was NOT aware. Unfortunately the poor boy is suffering from it now.

Please take care what you eat at the road side. Please forward this mail to your dear one







p/s: i wonder..sapa la punye kerja dok menspreadkan email2 mengarut mcm nih around? sekali baca bunyi mmg menakutkan ye tak? makan nenas dapat AIDS? kalau org yg malas nak double check, sure dah berenti makan pineapple, atau buah2 lain, infact, semua makanan yg dijual di luar sbb takut infected by AIDS! aku try google for both topics- apparently it has been around for quite some time, haha..tak tau berapa ramai org yg dah terpengaruh dgn article nih. kepada org2 yg rajin menulis email ngarut mcm nih..berenti la weyyy...byk lagi kerja lain yg boleh dibuat..


Haven’t been around for quite a while.

Whenever I read my post kat bawah tu, I thought to myself – ghee.. I sounded so depressed.

But really. I had to admit. These last few weeks mmg have been really testing. Testing kesabaran, testing ketahanan diri.. Mcm2 berlaku.. Whenever I thought things could never be worse, something else went wrong. And this went on…one thing after another. And what did I do amidst all that?

- I whined. I complained. I wallowed. I walked around as if mine is the biggest problem in the world and no one would ever understand.

And good did I achieve by doing all that?

- None. After I whine, I felt like whining some more. I complained –why does bad things always happen to me? And afterwards, I felt more depressed. I slept during the day, went to bed early at night, woke up late in the morning. Everything I need to do, went into my pending list. During the day, I walked around with the ‘ignore me-I had a bad day’ attitude. I put up frowned face all day long, and spread guilt around to my friends for not having the same problem– And made them all feel bad as a result.

And did my problems resolve?

- Hah! Definitely not! In fact, I felt worse myself. And that’s when I realized- oh God, what have I done? I should have buckle up and move forward. Problems don’t go by itself. They need to be tended. What I need to do was stay around and get my problems sorted – and after that only I realized that actually, things were not so bad after all..It was the mind game that made everything looked worse than it actually was.. and it was also the mind that could actually made all the hard things in life easy. And the most important thing that I had actually forgotten to do was.. to count my blessings. Even when most things in life had went into the drain, even when all things important seem to be lost – I still have a lot of other things with me. Its not the end of the world. Its not like I couldn’t get up and fix things up.
I just forgot to be grateful.
