it's now 2nd July, things happen pretty fast, just last Monday i started my new rotation in Orthopaedics, thinking, how on earth am i going to get the hang of it? seeing there are so many meetings and things to do for that 1 week stint, then it's easing to the weekend ( friday to be exact ) and my patient load has been shrinking, guess i was LUCKY :P not complaining !!
and on Friday night i was still in Melb, and hey i've touched down at KL on Saturday morning !!
and now i'm in Crown Plaze Hotel suite for 2 nights, for the weekend away from home in KL i guess. Dad has 3 suites booked, so i have one entirely for myself to use as i like. So i invited my friend Colin over to stay for the weekend and my little cousin ( 7 ) stayed with us. her younger brother who's nearly 1 is so CUTE !! guess that's why i like Paediatric.
Had my haircut at Sg wang yesterday, nobody can ever believe i'm a doctor, which i find funny !! they always say i look too Young to be a doctor !! :P hehehe..
There's this lady who was washing my hair, and boy i miss these nice hair wash, as Melb hair wash was just crappy !! Anyway...the hair stylish (guy) did a pretty neat job i would say.
2 funny statments.
from the hair wash lady ( in Cantonese and i was trying my best to reply in BROKEN Cantonese ) - i look too young to be a doctor and how old did i started working as one?
in which i replied i'm 24 now, and i started working as a doctor age 23.
the hairstylish
- if you're working as a doctor ? don't u need to comb ur hair in err.. more "see man" (decent) look? which i replied, errr.. Nope !! not in Australia you don't !! haha
Funnily as the day enfolds, i must really look foreign !! hmmm.. coz i have 2 people asking if i'm local and what people am i ( ni shi shen mer ren ar? or Lei hai mat ye yan ar ? )
hmm.. i tot i look blending?
anyway.. the night out was great, thanks Colin !! and it was great to discover a new alley of nice renovated old shophouses, it's the 2nd pub strect i guess.. and it's cool !!! love that stretch, gotta go back and explore more :)
i drank about 6-7 glasses of Mandarin vodka with Sprite !! Yummy !! and that's coz Colin doesn't drink and whenever i finish my glass and switch over to his, the waiter kept filling the empty glass up.
But i'm not complaining seeing i can take it :P after all it's FOC !! hehehehe.. ( remember, i've been in Melb, so it's almost 2nd nature to me to take ETOH )
oh the best of all, my baby received his key to his new house !!! YAY !!!!! now we have a weekday home in Glen Waverley and a weekend home in Sanctuary Lakes !! Yipeee...
3rd july.
woke up, had breakfast, oh Nasi Lemak.. Roti Prata.. Chicken Rendang.. yummy !!
my cousin has a quick swin, i changed and now online, settling some jobs ( part time investing job ) on the net and attending to my email correspondence.
and updating my blog, while waiting to meet up with my ex-house maid Monica. She's keen to see me, been about 3 yrs or more since i last saw her, she went back to Phillipines then, and returned to work for another employer, it's amazing how we still keep in touch. Anyway, lunch will be with her and mum.
and we've ( Colin n I ) decided that we will stormed Singapore this weekend instead !! before i fly off to Langkawi for a 3 days getaway ( more like to purchase Duty Free furnitures and cooking utensils for my Sanctuary Lakes home )
Fri - Mon tentatively will be for Singapore, although it's rather short i would say. now i just need to find a play to stay !!!
