Who's this CUTIE?


Say hello to miss Jannah, our little dentist-gang latest celebrity. =)


Her proud mum, Ida, is my coursemate, and a fellow Malaysian. Ever since she told us she was pregnant, it was all ooohs and aaaaahs at how her tummy was growing each day. I bet the little one could feel the excitement and anticipation for her arrival surrounding her mother, even from inside the womb.


We threw Ida a surprise baby shower before the baby was born, and it was a wonderful get-together.

Future dentists =)

Congratulations, IDA! She's such a cutie and amazingly adorable, looking at her makes me feel all squishy inside. Heheh, and its exciting to think that we'll be part of her first few years in life! =)

I wonder what will she call me when she's able to speak.

AUNTY peilian? or MAKCIK peilian?

HAHAHA HowNowBrownCow.

Mistakes.

Is it an act of plain stupidity and naiveness to shoulder the responsibility of another?

At first I thought I was being unfairly judged, and unjustly treated. Just because I was a student, and HE, was a respected dentist.

But when I saw the patient undergo so much pain and discomfort, shouldering the ordeal of it all with a big brave smile, blaming only himself but not others.. my heart broke.

People make mistakes, but when it is in the expense of causing another human being more pain, are the 'mistakes' forgivable?

Tears pooled in my eyes when both he and his wife hugged and kissed me with gratitude before they left the surgery. Admiration filled my heart when he said he still eats, although only blended food, full of optimism and cheerfulness. And I tried hard not to cry, not to feel so attached, not to feel so guilty.

Many would call me silly, for feeling this way. Senseless, for feeling guilt for something I didn't do. Stupid, for not defending myself.

But really, does it matter anymore whose fault it is?


What's done, is done.

This weekend was a nice and lazy one, where I spent most of my time lying in bed curled up with my new story book 'A Thousand Splendid Suns' by Khaled Hosseini.

After the hustle n bustle of the week, I love the quiet moments I spend in my room, with the company of my books. =)


And so, another week beckons.

Bowling!



Care de pescado = I am a FISH.

Why fish, you say? Thats because I have a memory of a FISH.


Just a random thought. HAHA. Lame, no? =)


Anyways. Felt like I havent blogged for awhile. No inspiration, life is B.O.R.I.N.G at this point in time.

Yesterday's halfway party 'BOWLING outing' to didsbury was fun, although I have to be honest I wasn't looking forward to it in the first place. I can't bowl for NUTS. Like seriously, not kidding.

99% of the time I bowl into the 'longkang' in between lanes one. So i had my 'pagar' up, and it wasn't too bad. =) And it was nice to see almost the whole course there. =)


Bowling group NUMBER 1.



'Mua' =)


To complete the afternoon outing was yummy nando's for dinner. =)

I just had a 2.30pm-7.30pm 'NAP' this afternoon. When I woke up I was in DISBELIEF when I looked at the clock! 5 HOURS OMG I'm such a PIG. Or a fish? Can't decide.

Maybe I'll settle for a mixedbreed pigfish. A lazybum sleepyhead with a small degenerating pea-sized brain.
