R.I.P Ah Gong

Many years ago, I had a mission for myself. And this mission is also another reason why I entered the healthcare industry. I wanted to find out the real reason why ah gong passed away. I didn't believe that someone who was admitted into the hospital for diarrhoea could pass away with IHD without any past medical history. Or so, i thought.

Today, 7 years later, I finally found out the reason. Though I'm, still not convinced, but I'm still glad I managed to find out the truth. I've completed my mission. I believe it is Ah Gong and Por Por who guided me to this path.

Thank you Ah Gong for letting me know the truth. I hope you are well and happy with Por Por on the other side. I do miss you still. And I believe daddy too.

END OF 2013; HELLO 2014

15 minutes to draft this post. 2013 is coming to an end!!! we survived end of year last year, and 2013 is ending too. this year marks a huge milestone for me. cleared my 6K university bills, and finally finished my degree studies unofficially. it was definitely a tiring process, but i would not have been able to go through it without so many people's help.

studies plus work;
studies and work together was really hectic, and not forgetting the late nights in the pharmacy, the staff who accommodated to our study time, buying my extra duties and swopping closing duties with me without any complains. little bits here and there helps. thank you everyone!

then there is J. although we were only on closer terms just that few months, i was really glad that i had you to company me through my exam period. you are a really great friend. really wished we can meet more often, but seems like you are really busy, huh?

friends;
SWAG got really close this year, with more meet-ups. though meet-ups tend to have one or two people missing, but we are definitely an awesome bunch! the g2000 ex and current members also became closer, especially derick, leon, wendy and me. more suppers and dinners together please!

personal;
i guess my thoughts did changed much over the past year. venturing into education, teaching the juniors and students make me feel different. i always thought, and the thought hasn't changed, that i am not a good teacher because of my temper. but every time i take a new junior in my hand, i learn different things.

signed up as member to a gym, invested in personal training made me healthier, and happier now. looking greater, feeling greater. i hope i can maintain.

travel;
yes, i finally got to travel! it was just a short getaway, but better than nothing. :D

and yes, 12am!
HELLO 2014, AND MAY EVERYTHING BE SMOOTH IN THIS YEAR TOO!

Muar and Malacca 2013

The very anticipated trip way way before exams kicked in. After so many discussions and change of plans, we finally headed to Muar and Malacca! A big THANK YOU to Joshua and family for being awesome hosts. 

20th December, after, or I should say towards the end of the pharmacy party, we grabbed our bags and headed straight to the car waiting for us at SGH. Headed down to custom and reached Joshua's house by midnight. His family members were all wide awake waiting for us. Hahha.

The following day, we headed out for breakfast (Bak Kut Teh!) and after some touring to deer farm and a huge aquarium, we headed to Malacca! Aside from the shopping centres, we went down to Jonker Street, which displays more traditional stuffs. Also a tourist attraction place. We actually had the intention to head further to XianHao's hometown for seafood, but oh well.. just saying. HAHA! At night, we went prawning! Thanks to XianHao and his craving for prawning. He was practically bugging Joshua to find out where we can prawn. It was my first attempt, and didn't expect that it could be so fun. The first waiting process was quite boring, but took that chance to learn from Joshua and KaiXiang. After KaiXiang and I caught the first prawn (we were the first among all of us to caught the prawns!), I started playing with the earthworms and caught more prawns subsequently. :D

After that, Josh brought us to a mama shop for late night supper, and the uncle whipped up a feast with the prawns (14 in total) we caught. yumyums!

22nd December (Sunday!) we were rushing!!! Headed out to eat breakfast, chiong-ed down to Giant hypermart to grab cheap goodies, went for lunch, pack bag, and off we head back home!!!!

3 days 2 nights. My mini graduation trip. Thank you everyone for being so sporting during this trip. There could have been more photos, but we were just too crazy to capture those moments. Now, let the pictures do the talking!



 without KaiXiang & Josh because they are the front seaters!



INCREDIBLE HULK! I WANT!

fighter fish! I dreamt of owning them when I was young!


some traditional trishaws we saw in Malacca!

Group shot!
Second group shot, while having Asam Laksa and Chendol!



the awesome durian puff with durian paste flooding your mouth after the first bite.

i love this picture! So amazed by the Thousand Flower Tea! How the flower opens its petals after being soaked for a period of time in hot water.

 *prawning prawning!*



 

Mandatory shot!
& thank you uncle from the mama shop who whipped it up for us!
