9th Ramadhan.

Today, i helped my flatmates photo shooting for raya as this is their last ramadhan in Dunedin. They are going back for good soon :( and i'll be moving to a new flat with two other new flatmates next year. Getting new flatmates is the scariest thing in my life since i came here because i had a horror experience ever 2 and a half years ago. It changed me. I just don't want that kind of thing happen again in my life. Hopefully we will cope well with each other insyaAllah :)

Thank you Allah for giving me the chance to breathe the air of ramadhan again. There's something missing, but i'm getting rid of that feeling. As always, i wish i could be with my family. Trying not to be too sad, i make myself busy. Baking for masjid, spending time with flatmates as this is the last time we puasa together as housemates :') and yep, will always call my parents asking for recipes and stuffs haha so that they know that i'm fine here :') For these 9 days of puasa, i haven't skip my sahur yet. Alhamdulillah! yay :D

p/s : I wore this baju kurung for raya photo shoot in 2010 and i realized that i look the same as in 2010 :)

First day of Ramadhan

Alhamdulillah feeling better today after being sick for few days. Only HIM knows how hard it was being sick of cold and flu, feverish, itchy eyes and nose, terrible headache, emesis and muscle ache. My asthma is exacerbated. Shortness of breath is the hardest thing that i had to go through and i'm still having it. Sleeping with three pillows under my head to make my breathing easier and keep waking up while sleeping,this is not easy man. Like my Father always tells me breathing is the most precious gift from HIM and thats why life is precious. No breathing no life. Alhamdulillah HE's still giving me the chance to live the life. Syukran Allah, I have flatmates and pseudoflatmates that always care for me. Thank you people! :) I'm trying to be as productive as possible while i'm sick. Not to always rely on my housemates  in doing stuffs like cooking etc. Unless if i'm really really sick hehe dapat makan maggie special pun jadi lah! :p

Anyway, last night, I was waiting for ramadhan announcement by Fianz (Federation of Islamic Associations of New Zealand) and also by few msian clubs here but there was no news from them. So after maghrib, i decided to call Fianz by myself so i called the hilal committee. He said '' The moon has been sighted and insyaAllah it's confirmed that Ramadhan begins tomorrow. Ramadhan kareem sister! '' yay! :D so yeah, we had our first tarawikh at Al-Huda mosque last night. Too bad, i couldn't finish tarawikh until witir because of my sickness.sobs. But at least i managed to finish the 8 raka'at tarawikh :) Ramadhan kareem to my family too! This is my third ramadhan away from them :'( InsyaAllah will be stronger this year!

Ramadhan mubarak. May this month be a month of blessings, a month full of forgiveness and guidances! Ameen :)

Clinical year

Alhamdulillah. I passed my final exams last semester with not-too-bad results. More than what I expected. yay :D :D :D Now, i'm in clinical year . Three more semesters left insyaAllah :) Talking about clinical year, we don't have any more labs like before. But, there are lots and lots of workshops. About 4 to 5 workshops in each week. For each 3 hours workshop, we have to do preps, readings, cases etc2 . It's just too many stuffs to be prepared for each of them. The life is not as hectic as before, with less tests, no labs, but the stuffs are getting harder and harder. For lectures, it's a wee bit boring because we have about 3 to four lectures in a day about the same module in the same lecture hall and sometimes taught by the same lecturers. It's so unusual for me sitting in the same hall for few lectures unlike before where we had to walk here and there chasing time for lectures and labs which was hmm fun? It was tiring but at least we did something.

Anyway, thats life aye? It won't be the same for the whole time. It is always changing. I'm trying to be productive. Trying to always do my preps if not, i will feel so stupid doing the workshop knowing nothing during the discussion *sigh*. As i said, the things are getting harder, sometimes i read a lot of stuffs, but i just can't understand it. and the drugs that we have to learn and memorise are getting more and more! its about 2 to 3 pages of drug list for each patient assessments workshop. I have no idea how to memorise them together with their actions, properties, shelf/half lives, ADRs, and the worst part is when we have to study the chemical structures of each of the drug, the developments of new drugs, prodrugs, etc2. It is called medicinal chemistry. What a fancy name kan? Sorry for this scientific stuffs. For me, they are just lines that are attached to each other forming some kind of weird shapes with a few circles here and there and to make them fancier, there are bridges in circles (double triple bonds?haha). But well, you're a drug expert to be so this is what you have to go through isn't it? :) But will try my best! insyaAllah.

Bye bye :)
