新年祝语 Chinese New Year Greetings

鼠年即将尽入尾声,牛大哥的脚步也慢慢地离我们越来越近。如往常一样,我今天还是无法回家过年。虽然很无奈,但是我觉得在国外过年的这几年让我体会到了家人、朋友的重要,也让我学习了以前无法学习的自立。话虽如此,我还是很想家的!因为 “花到新春分外香,每逢佳节倍思亲。” =P

希望在马来西亚的家人、朋友能够有个幸福、快乐及平安的金牛年。
希望爸爸妈妈身体健康、快快乐乐。
希望伟建、伟胜学业进步,CGPA步步高升!
希望小妹SPM金榜题名!
还有还有,希望宝贝嘉敏(我的VIP)可以天天开心!

在此我要祝正在工作的朋友:工作顺利!
祝正在恋爱的朋友:爱情甜蜜!
祝将要结婚和已经结婚的朋友:婚姻美满、早生贵子/女!
祝各位尚在求学的朋友:考试顺利!

愿大家:牛年行大运! Moooo~~~~~~~

The Year of Mickey Mouse is going to be succeeded by the Year of Ox (not XO..so don't drink too much ok?=P) in less than 24 hrs time. As usual, I am unable to celebrate this annual festival with my family and friends in Malaysia. I have however learnt the importance of family through this experience. So, at least I am gaining something for losing another thing. =P

Anyway, i would like to take this opportunity to wish all my friends a very happy Chinese New Year!

For those who are working, i hope you will earn more $$ and be promoted!
For ppl who are still studying like me, hope we will do well in studies n more importantly, score well in our exams!!!!
For my friends who are married or going to get married, i hope you will find your true happiness in your marriage!
For mates who are in a relationship, hope your relationship will go well!


Good luck to everybody and hope we all have a great year ahead! Mooo~~~~

新年到,Parcels到!

The Chinese New Year is coming soon. This is going to be the Year of Ox and it will be the 4th cny that i spend in the UK.

For the past 3 yrs i had the luxury to celebrate cny with my fellow friends in Cardiff. However, this year i m going to spend it alone in North Wales as I am currently still doing clinical placements here.

Luckily, my thoughtful Soya Mean decided to cheer me up a bit by doing sth for me.


She sent some parcels to the hosp which i am currently 'working' in now. 2 of them were labelled as 'fragile'. So I open the top right 1 1st...




Tada~~ There were 1 bday card and 1 cny card in the envelop ( i guess u shud be able to tell which is which). Also, there's a handphone charm which is my bday present. =)
And then i went on opening the fragile parcels...




cny biscuits!!! Haven been eating them for ages.. I don;t really know the names for those biscuits but i know there are some pineapple tarts in one of the boxes. Haha...
And i opened the last envelop ...



which contained my fav cny snack - BAK KWA! There were 6 of them! Yum yum~~~



Thanks, Soya Mean! =)

As the time passes silently...

It's almost 8pm now and I am still sitting alone in the library. If you know me well u shud know that i m not a person who will come to lib to study. The only time tat i will come to lib is when:

1. i need to borrow a book
2. i need to return a book (or when i need to pay the fine for late returning)
3. use the pc (which is 100% slower than my super old laptop)

So now i m here for the 3rd reason. Coz my room's internet connection is down. I clearly dun manage my time v well coz instead of reading for my exams, i choose to blog now. It is not that i dun 1 2 study but my brain is just too weak for that.

Suddenly i think of those days in Form 5 when i needed to squeeze out as much time as possible to do my revision while i was having intensive training with my dearest teammates.

And now.. i think i m goin to do the same thing again, even though it's for a different person.

Jia you ba, wei kang!

A special b'day

This is the 1st time I am alone on my bday. But this is not the main point for this post. Even though i had a quiet bday here but I am still very happy because of the following reasons:

1. Got a present and a bday card (which is currently still under the custody of UK's Royal Mail) fr SoyaMean

2. Received bday msgs/calls frm home!

3. Got a couple of calls/sms'es fr frens

4. And I got plenty of msgs on my Facebook's wall... haha I actually din expect this because i RARELY log on to Facebook 1 (ya i must admit tat i m a bit outdated, for now)

I hope every1 will b happy every day! =)

A little joke

This is a little joke for my mates who 'happened' to b medics, hope it will make you less insane while reading tonnes and tonnes of note...


One day, a physician and a surgeon was arguing who is better.

The surgeon says, “We just don’t talk about it, we do something about it.”

The physician says, “If we do not talk about it, you surgeons would have no idea what to do about it.”

Then the Houseman says, “Shut up….if not because of me, you specialist would not have time to pee…”

A Bloody Week for me

It's going to be a bloody week for me. Not because sth unpleasant is going to happen but I am going to do a clinical placement in the haematology (the study of blood disorders) department. So literally this week is going to be bloody.

So,perhaps I should have a shot of Bloody Mary at the end of this week.

My temporary nest

Happy New Year, folks! My 2-week X'mas break is coming to an end which means my term is going to continue tomorrow. After the enjoyments in the past 14 days, it's time for me to gear myself up for the upcoming challenge!

However, i've decided to upload some of the pictures of my room which is provided by the hospital for my clinical placement in Rhyl.


The immediate view of my room after the room door is opened.



The study table with 2 chairs. Behind the mirrors, there is a storage compartment for clothes and bags.



My bed. 2 pillows are provided but i only slp with 1 ie not orthopnoeic. =P


A closer view on my study area. A phone is provided which can be used to make internal calls within the hospital.


Some shirts in the storage compartment.


Toilet and shower.
