Just got back from Prague yesterday afternoon. Still haven't finished unpacking, and so lazy to do so. My camera are still with Jiejah - begitu malasnya nak mengupload. Will write about it later. I promise :D
Went to Fiona's place this afternoon. Her mom come over and they invited me for dinner. So went wif Jiejah. Makan dgn banyaknya. Dengan starter samosa dan prawn wrap kemudian main dish nasi dan kari ikan. Sungguhlah mengenyangkan perut. Memang makan banyak giler lah. Then minum rose tea plak yang sangat sedap - supposed to be good for complexion and untuk kelihatan awet muda. Minum guna the chinese cup yang cumil-cumil. Syiok abiss..
Then, sementara nak tunggu perut yang penuh turun, sebelum dihidangkan dengan dessert, Fiona's mom, Paula taught us how to play mahjong. Best wooo. Gila main berapa jam ntah. Rasa macam tanak balik umah je. The only reason we stopped adalah kerana jam sudah menjangkau ke 11 malam dan kepala sudah agak pening-pening lalat sebab mengantuk. Will definitely go there again to play mahjong. Besides, Paula wants me to show her how to cook malay dish - macamlaa aku ni pandai sangat masak pun. Belasah je laa. Pas masak dan makan, bleh laa main mahjong lagi. Selalu dok tengok dalam citer Hong Kong je kan. Fiona wanted to show us how to gamble with it, but we declined. Kang dah pandai, rasa nak gamble bebetul kang, haa payah laa plak kan.. dan sekarang aku rasa macam nak beli mahjong set sendirik..hehehhe :p

I feel like dancing :)
This week have been a bit of a roller-coaster. Sangat stress di hari Isnin sebab perlu bertemu patient utk case presentation di hari Selasa. Patut jumpa patient awal pagi, tapi sebab Ieja ada meeting di Leeds yang tak dapat dielakkan, jadi kena jumpa patient waktu tengah hari. Lepas tu terus ada teaching, dan Ieja yang sedang batuk terpaksa keluar dari bilik 2 kali sepanjang 2 jam sebab batuk yang tak berhenti sehingga mengganggu orang nak belajar. Terpaksa stay-back sebab nak check patient's details in the system, hence didn't get home till 7 that night. Terpaksa pulak meredah hujan dan angin yang sangatlah menduga iman sebab pemandu-pemandu bas membuat strike.
Selasa lebih stress lagi. Ada teaching di pagi hari, kemudian teaching sampai pukul 3.30. Berusaha menyiapkan esei untuk dihantar, juga preparation untuk case presentation. Tahap stress meningkat plus I was traumatised by previous case presentation, hence extra stress-triple anxiety. Although we had interresting convversation while waiting for our turn - from why I wear hijab, and why I wear it the way I do, to which of the doctors we'd rather kiss - yes...sangat luas cabang topiknya. The presentation went well, Alhamdulillah. Then the GPs treated us dinner. It was so fun - I didn't think it'd be this fun - Ieja masih tersenyum bila mengingatkannya :). Natijahnya, didn't get home till 1130 that night. Lucky we had the Wednesday off. :D
Wednesday, went to the chinese shop with Fi, then came back and cook some mi kari for her. Then hang out and borak-borak till late. Found out that only got one day of workshop next week, hence decided to book a holiday with Jiejah.
Thursday; managed to book the holiday - walaupun a bit hesitant at first sebab weather forecast tunjuk snow shower the whole time we're there. Tapi kerana keinginan untuk keluar dari alam nyata begitu membuak-buak, jadi terus book. Tak kisah laa snow ke apa. Besides, the hotel we booked is only 500m walk from the biggest shopping mall in Prague, so kalu sejuk sangat tak bleh nak jalan kat luar, we can always go shopping..hehheh ;)
Friday - last day of placement. It was bitter-sweet really. The best placement I've been to - willing to go there anytime.. but then again, can't wait for a holiday. Berjaya membuat my groupmates jealous - and also printed out the e-tickets and everything. Also, went to town with Jiejah, got myself a new bubble jacket for 7.99, and a pair of sneakers for 14.99. Bargain!! :D
half an hour ago called home after three weeks, and guess what? My beloved Kak Mai is 3 months pregnant for her second baby. No wonder Kasyah asyik merajuk nak pergi rumah atuk ngan nenek. He prolly sensed that he's gonna get a brother/sister. Cheeky!!
And ain't life beautiful?? :D

'aliena? I don't know anyone name aliena, I know someone called estefan'
Went to watch Happy Feet yesterday. It was fun and soooo deep. I mean the message is big. I know that lots reviews on the film was mainly on the ecological message behind the film, but it wasn't just that.
It was about accepting the differences in individuals. The loneliness you feel when you realised that you're different, and you know you can't change although you tried your best to change. Also it strange to think how easily strangers can accept you the way you are than people who's been with you all your life. Not to mention the determination. It was fun and sad at the same time. And cute. heheh. Made me want to learn tap-dancing :D don't know about others, but it sure got to me ;). Good songs too, oh not to mention they managed to make the female penguin look sexy. I mean, norma jean even got a mole on her shoulder! Cute!
Hmmm what else, oh yeah bought a new dress on my way back after the movie, yippie!! :D

and I got splashed by a car
The weather today was horrible. We needed to be in earlier than usual, and I didn't realised it was raining quite heavily outside. I wore my suede shoes- which obviously not waterproof, went out and wal-lah, it was dark and rainy. I don't usually bring umbrella as the wind is usually quite strong hence will blown me and my umbrella away. I braved the weather, wearing my off-white tweed jacket which I just sent to the dry-cleaners last 3 weeks and got stained with hot chocolate last friday. There I was, minding my own business when this car drove past me, quite fast and splashed water on me. Definitely NOT a good start.
Went in the bus stop hoping that I won't get anymore rain water on me - and how wrong I was. Even inside the closed bus stop, these cars managed to splashed more water on us pedestrians. Sabar je lah. Got to Keighley, which weather is often worse than Leeds, braved a stronger wind, and managed to get to GP half an hour late, and half-soaked. My feet was soaked through though, so I took of my shoes and socks and walk barefooted around the room. Nasib lah. I prolly will get athlete's foot if I didn't do so, and I know I don't have smelly feet (I asked Fiona just to make sure).
The day went considerably better then, went for pizza during lunch - when the weather was all sunny and bright, then had another teaching. But the weather turned all gloomy and horrible again on our way back, although it wasn't raining as heavily.
How I wish I had a car!

sunday blues
Hari ahad dah hampir ke penghujung, dan esok bermulalah minggu baru. Aku rasa macam baru je nak menikmati cuti hujung minggu, sedar-sedar dah habis cuti. Cepatnya masa berlalu, buat hati resah memikirkan hari-hari mendatang.
Tak banyak yang aku buat cuti hujung minggu ni. Selain menonton Pan's Labyrinth Jumaat lepas, dan membaca buku serba sedikit. Selebihnya aku habiskan dengan tidur dan berehat. Sesungguhnya musim-musim sejuk begini adalah masa yang sangat sesuai untuk berhibernasi. Jadi tak hairanlah kalau Elective report yang patut aku sudahkan pun masih terbengkalai. Bila difikirkan, ada jugalah kemajuannya report ku itu. Sekurang-kurangnya rangka dan isinya dah ada, cuma nak mengindahkan bahasanya, yang sangat-sangat lah aku tak gemar. Yang pasti, aku masih ada 3 hari - 3 malam yang sebetulnya, kerana hariku dah pastilah akan kuhabiskan di klinik, sebelum laporan itu kuhantar hari Rabu nanti. Kemudian, aku kena berhempas pulas pulak menyiapkan SSC yang perlu kuhantar dalam masa 2 minggu lagi. Hai, tak habis-habis dengan esei. Leceh betul!
Tadi kami ke rumah Ha, makan-makan sebelum ibunya berangkat pulang ke Malaysia Jumaat ini. Penuh jugalah perutku. Kalau ikutkan hati, memang aku nak makan lagi, tapi entah kenapa kebelakangan ini aku macam kurang selera hendak makan. Penat sangat agaknya. Entahlah. Fiona kata, mungkin sebab aku banyak sangat berfikir hingga tak lalu makan dan tak lena tidur. Tapi, tak lena pun, sampai tengah hari juga aku tidur hujung-hujung minggu macam ni. Kenapa ye agaknya.. hmmm.
Panjang pulak bebelan aku hari ni. Tengkuk dan badan pun dah sakit. Aku nak membaca sikit sebelum tidur.
Nite nite eberibodi!

Pan's Labyrinth
Bought a new eye-liner on the way back from Keighley today. Told Fi that Farid, Kamarul and a few others are going to watch Casino Royale tonight. Since I am not a big fan of Bond, I didn't really feel like watching it. But I told Fi that I want to watch the Pan's Labyrinth, which advert I saw on tv while watching LOTR last Sunday. It so happened that the review came out on Metro this morning, and after reading the review she said she wanna watch it as well. So I said, okay, but not today though.
But suddenly we thought, oh well, might as well go and watch it tonight. I mean, yes, I've got things to do, but I prolly won't do them anyway. So we went for the 6pm show. Bought the tickets, then we went to McD for burgers since I'm so hungry - got a free hamburger with my NUS card - which I offered to her (she's so gonna blame me if she put on any weight :p) since I obviously cannot eat that.
Anyway, so we went, watch the advert and trailers and the certificate came out. You know, the cert they show before a film started - and strangely the title was written in 2 languages. Hmm that's a bit weird - plus the cinema wasn't full either, considering that the film just came out yesterday, I was expecting a bit more people. Then the film started, in Spanish, with subtitles, I might add.
Surprise, surprise! No wonder not that many people come and watch it. The film is in flashback mode, and I think it was brilliant. It's like Narnia cross over with some military stuff and a touch of horror. And I think it's brilliant!! Strongly recommended, but I have to advise you not to bring any kids with you. Yes, the main character is a kid, but, the movie is kind of disturbing in some ways - or as Fiona said it 'the most disturbing film I've seen in a while'..hehhe.. But I think it's not as disturbing as Exorcist. No regret at all. I'm more satisfied with this movie that the last Harry Potter actually (and I'm a big fan of Harry Potter).
hehe.. I think enough advertisement for today, hmmmm... maybe they should consider paying me for this. What do you think??

chocolate cake
Tengah tunggu kek cekelat dalam oven. Another half an hour and it shud be ready. Yummy!! Tatau lah kenapa tiba-tiba rasa nak makan kek cekelat. Went to town with Nisa this afternoon. Takde lah nak beli apa pun, saje je jalan-jalan. Di tengah-tengah hujan yang agak lebat. Gloomy British weather, as usual. Then, on the way back, tiba-tiba rasa nak buat kek cekelat, so pegi lah Morrisons membeli all the ingredients. Siap dengan topping sekali. Hopefully it'll turn out okay. Kalau sedap, esok boleh laa bawak for my groupmates. hehehh.
I've got two essays that need to be due in a few weeks. One's in next Wednesday, and the other one in 2 weeks time. Malas betul lah. Rasa macam baru je hari tu siap satu esei, dah kena buat lagi. Dah lah aku ni memang malas nak buat esei. Adoilah. I was supposed to do one of them last weekend, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I ended up reading instead. Sigh. How annoying. Not to mention that I need to prepare handout for presentation this Friday. Baru taip a few sentences. Think I'll finish that one first, then start my Elective report. One step at a time..heheh
Oh dear, am having headache now. I need to wash my hair, sebab tadi kena hujan. Otherwise, I'll be down with fever soon. Juga bau-bauan dari 5-6 jenis perfume di pelbagai bahagian tangan sungguhlah tidak membantu mengurangkan sakit kepala. Was trying to decide which one I should buy for the hantaran. Now that Christmas is near, I better make up my mind, so that I can get the best deal masa boxing day nanti. I can see my money flying away....
