Old Things and New

Hey semua (kalau ada)!

 I know its been a while, but I'm going to rehash my old excuse of being busy, if you'll excuse me for it one more time. Haha. So I've got quite a bit to say this time around- alot of things have happened since I came back to Kelantan and boy, has it been a ride. Pasang telinga k, err...ke mata. Whatever.

 Hmm agaknya event yang paling aku ter-excited nak cerita pasal CONVEX. CONVEX tu satu event yang dia org buat kat USM Penang, lebih kurang nak celebrate students yang dah graduate (ni personal guess). So our little band from Kubang Kerian set off on a 8 hour trip via bus convoy to get to the main campus. Even though sebenarnya malas nak pi sebab kena buat kerja, ada sebahagian diri aku yang excited sebab nak pi Penang. Sesampai je main campus tu, memang tak tersia lah keterujaan aku. Campus dia memang hebat, memang rasa macam duduk kat universiti lah. Besar, so ada je bas yang lalu every few minutes. Kalau takda panas Malaysia, memang rasa macam kat tempat lain.

 Petang tu dah kira start pening kepala la, dengan terus kena set up booth la apa semua. Huissh banyak caraban masa tu =.= Tapi in the end it all went well- our booth was set up, the people in the expo were ready and we started promoting. Apparently our promotion worked wonders, as our main expo hall was packed by lunchtime. I even got to see my grand-uncle and his family! All in all it was interesting, especially satu part ni yang melibatkan aku, seorang pakcik dan pandangan dia terhadap personaliti aku...yang tu aku cerita lain kali je lah =.=

 We got a day off on day 3, so we decided nak pi jalan-jalan la. Of all the places in Penang, we somehow ended up at a vintage toy museum. Eh, whatever works :P It was pretty cool, in fact the whole place was eye-candy for someone who loves old things, such as yours truly.I bought some old-timey stuff, and had an overall brilliant time.

 Though, being in Penang allowed me to discover something: that I'm one sentimental little sad-sack.

 Sure I like keeping souvenirs, who doesn't? But now, I've become increasingly aware of my inability to throw anything away. For me, the things we are given are the ones which are most valuable. I even kept this:

 A flower plucked by some random roadside by one of my new friends, who shall remain anonymous on this blog. Ah well, so I'm sentimental- sue me. Though even though I adore the old, I'm still open to the new. Heck, its half the reason I join these things in the first place: you never know when you'll find your next good friend :) Tu lah benda yang aku paling suka pasal join event, kalau korang nak tau.

I'M NOT EVEN SORRY

So other than that, it's also noteworthy that as of Year 2 in the MD programme, I've been allowed to bother patients in the hospital. In fact, I paired up with one of my PBL-mates to handle our first patient. Well, sort of patient. We had to interview and do a physical examination on a patient, and I got to handle the former. On a list of most harrowing experiences, interviewing a patient is probably somewhere between riding a roller coaster and going for my JPA interview. I choked abit, and left out alot of major points. That meant I had to go back and ask follow up questions, and bother that poor makcik some more.

Its a good thing out patient was so sporting. Makcik tu cool je, siap cerita itu ini. Yang paling tak boleh blah time aku tengah interview, dia ada kecek something kat aku tapi tak paham. Nampaknya aku buat muka blur masa tu, so dia gelakkan aku sebab tak paham bahasa kelantan. Baiklah, noted makcik. Saya akan mengaji kecek kelate lagi =.=

 Ooookkaaayyy...so I guess that all I got for now. Sorry for the rushed picture collage, I promised someone I'd have this up by today. Haha. Anywhoo...tu je la perkembangan buat masa kini, I'm not sure when I'll be back next, so till then, bye semua :)
