update..

recently, i became too lazy to update this blog. banyak cerite yg pending, psl our marvellous holiday, dgn cerite psl kete lagi, working life yg depressing etc.
sgt byk nak cerite smp x tercerite. sampaikan x tahu where to start...

anyway, skrg dah masuk spring kat sini. i love seeing daffodils along the road. it is just brightened up my day. suke tgk daffodils, sbb tahu x lama lagi, akan makin panas dgn bunga2 berwarna warni di merata2 tempat. oh, i just love daffodils.

daffodils also reminds me of someone.someone that was sooo nice to me. oh, i just could not get him ut of my mind.he was once a best friend of mine. sekarang die dah balik m'sia.dulu2 sebelum zaman sebelum bercinta dgn hubby, dialah tempat mengadu. tempat bercerite.dialah jadi tutor, bagi semangat utk teruskan semangat belajar. x paham ape diajar di kelas, tanya aje die. biasalah,bercakap2 kat telefon aja. x penah/x akan jumpe kat luar. kadang2 selalu sgt berborak dgn die, akan ditegur oleh akak senior serumah sbb takut nanti jadi salah faham, sama ada dari pihak diri sendiri, or dr pihak dia. takut kite, atau die menganggap diri lebih dari kawan. tapi sememangnya dari awal lagi, sudah berjanji utk menganggap die hanya sebagai kawan, x lebih dari itu. dikenali sebagai lone ranger, kemana2 keseorangan. kebetulan, suatu malam kami bercerita psl musim bunga, terkeluar ttg diri yg suke bunga daffodils.
malam keesokannya, tanpa disangka, terdapat sejambak bunga2 daffodils ditinggalkan di hadapan pintu rumah. x tahu dari siapa, tapi seakan dpt mengagak dari siapa. bila ditanya, die mangaku, katanya, kebetulan dalam perjalan balik dari Cuh, banyak daffodils di tepi jalan. semua dipotong dan hasilnya terdapat di laman rumah kami.
haha..nak tergelak pon ada. terharu pon ada. terasa diri dihargai biarpun daffodils tepi jalan. haha...sampai skrg, still ingat die bile terpandang daffodils.
hai la sahabat, apa khabarmu di sana??...semoga sentiasa berbahagia. saya doakan sellalu...
daffodils betul2 menggamit kenangan. ah, rindunya pd kenangan2 lama. kdg2 when life is becoming depressing, reminiscing the sweet memory brings smile to face and to life.
terima kasih sahabat atas daffodils itu. semoga hidupmu mekar seperi daffodils yg berbunga sekarang...

edinburgh...here we come! -part 1-






alhamdulillah, we safely arrived in edinburgh airport on 10/2/09 at 9pm after half an hour delay at shannon airport. the night was cold, colder than cork or galway. there was trace of snow everywhere in edinburgh. we were picked up by pokdir's honda. after borak2 in the car, we knew that they had heavy snow there 2 days earlier. bestnyer, iti siap main slide n buat snowman lg with the kids.

we reached pokdir's house. after mkn2, we slept with full stomach. alhamdulillah...sejuk2 ni selera mkn makin bertambah...hehe.

that was day 1. on the second day, after we had a good breakfast, meehoon n nugget, we made our way to go shopping, at first for the groceries, but we went for the second trip to livingstone,a massive outlet for tha most branded items. sambil2 shopping ski pants, gloves and goggles for the next day skiing trip, sempat lg tgk2 brg2 tefal,kasut clark etc. giler byk sale. according to pokdir,sale x abeh2 since boxing day aritu. maybe dats their way to keep on surviving. skrg byk kedai tutup as the effect of econoomic downturn takes place.a few kedai buat closing down sale.huhu.

day 3 was the day we really enjoyed. awal2 pg before subuh lagi pokdir dh bgn n bersiap2. since adin n me slept in the living room, nmpk je pokdir bersiap2, terpaksa la bgn jugak.hehe. kl x, ade hrpn smbung tido lg. sejuk betul di waktu pg di sana. che da cooked nasi goreng for the breakfast. after shower n subuh prayer, kami bersiap2. our agenda was to go skiing in cairngorm mountain in the highlands in northern ediburgh.

pg tu,as i was hoping for, we had a heavy snow. yeay...bestnyer main snow. snow texture is smoother than ais abc.easily melted away. n if u are walking during the snow, u have to be very careful sbb jln can be very slippery. we had an incident where akilah fell forward n banged her face onto the slippery road that morning while adin n pokdir tgh packed our things up in the car.rase mcm dlm peti ais plak. everywhere is white...

we took 3 hurs plus to reach our destination. along the way, we could see snow everywhere.best.the mountain covered totally with snow. sejuk. pokdir drove slowly sbb bhy kl drive laju2 in this weather. adela jugak terserempak few times dgn lori yg clean the snow. siap ade kereta yg terbabas ke tepi jln, myb sbb x nmpk ade dain yg covered with snow.

bile smp ke mountain, sejuk yg amat.kakak n adik dan komplen sakit kaki sbb kaki sejuk though they have worn several layers of tights together with socks.mmg sejuk pon. huhu. everybody pay 16 gbp to board the furnicular (the train which takes up the the peak of the mountain) n 20gbp plus for snowboard n ski respectively.

snow

dah lama dah x merasa snow di bumi cork ni. tahun ni, agak berbeza dari tahun2 sebelumnya. cork snow, galway snow, dublin, apetah lagi. berhari2...siap bleh buat snowman lagi. sampai sekolah pon tutup sbb jalan licin.berbahaya utk memandu pd weather mcm skrg ni.

kalau ikut ape berite kate, snow kat UK tahun ni paling lebat dlm masa 18 tahun. wah... bestnye. tp sejuk. cork ni selalu hujan je.jarang2 snow. kalau pon snow, sekejap je. tp tahun ni pon berbeza, walaupun cork snow sekejap, tapi cukup utk memutihkan jalan. itu sudah baik, sbb kalau cork snow, selalunya sekejap je.

tak sabarnya nak pegi Scotland esok. nak main snow, nak main ski. harap2 still snow lagi kat sana. pokdir cakap, nak main ski pon kene tgk weather. sbb kalau weather x elok, pon x boleh naik ke atas bukit tpt ski tu. harap2 weather permits us this time...

tak sabar nak main snow. though saya x suke sejuk...hehe..

hubby demam...

hubby kesayanganku demam...sian...
the friday night when i rang him, i noticed that his voice changed. so, i asked him whether he is ok or not. he said to me that his temperature was 38.9 that night. but, after taking 2 tabs of paracetamol, his temp went down to 37.5. pity my husband. and yet, he still had to finish his call that night. sian my hubby...

the next day, i knew from him that he had already ask one of his colleagues to do sunday oncall for him. i know this is something he rarely do. he never, or should i say, rarely would ask for his colleague to do his call unless if he is truly sick. i know my hubby well. he never want to burden anybody with his problem.

so, i knew this is not a good news.

i rang him many times later that day asking him to eat something. but u know, when u are sick, ur appetite also goes down as well. he only ate mushroom soup that night. again, pity my husband.

but,...a few hours later, i rang him again. u know what he was doing???he was playing aka riadah in front of the tv playing soccer using xbox 360!!!i know after that i need not to worry about him anymore. he's getting better. if he play his xbox 360, dat means he's ok or improving. hehe...my hubby.

siap cakap, ' sy ok dah. main game buat saya berpeluh'.haha...ape2lah sayang. janji makin sihat k. sy xnak awak sakit...

post-call

Alhamdulillah...Allah has granted me my dua to have a quiet oncall last night. thanks Allah..

yesterday started at 9am. i reached Merlin Park 15 minutes aerlier than i supposed to be. after handover from Nyasha who was oncall from the previous night, my oncall officially started. it was quiet for the first 2 hours. no bleep at all. i was hoping to get bleep first before get moving from 1 unit to another.

then, i was informed by my Reg that unit 3 is looking for me. what??i did not get any bleep from them.seriously. so, i decided to test my own bleep. yes, it's working. but,why did not i get the bleep ringing when unit 3 rang me??or did they bleep me in the first place??

so, i decided to go to unit 3. reaching there,i knew there is nothing urgent really. only few IV cannulas to be resited. dave (the medical intern) told me after that that he would do that since he wanted to cover unit 1,3, and 7 whereas i would be covering unit 4,5,6 and 8.

so, i went to unit 4. only few reviews to do. and no job in unit 5 and 6. i spent about 1 and half hours doing reviews in unit 8. after that, i did not get bleep until around 5pm. so, i went there again after my Maghrib prayer. once finishing joblist in unit 8, i headed to unit 4 only to find that there was no job for doctor. fuh, i'm lucky. this is strangelu quiet oncall for me. seriously. half of the oncall hours i spent my time in dr rest. this is marvellous really...

at night, i got call at 8pm from unit 8 to chart for medication for certain patients. and no call after that. i could not believe myself sleeping from 9pm till 8am the following day. seriously, i cant imagine that my oncall would turn out to be like this...it's so peaceful and quiet.

to be honest, the night before the on-call, i was so agitated and restless. the next day was my first cover call really in Merlin PArk. i really did not know what to expect. so, my sleep was really disturbed that night, anxious thinking on how the day would turn out to be. i woke up every hour. serious.i woke up every hour that night, 1 am, 2 am, 3 am, 4 am, every hour until 7 am. i was so anxious...

if only i knew beforehand that this oncall will be this quiet,then, i do not have to spend soo much time worrying. i am just wasting my time.huhu..

alhamdulillah, thanks to Allah for granting my wish. thanks Allah..
