How does Islam Benefit Us/me?

Hurmm.. it is a general topic for discussion, isnt it? But that was what we had for a discussion last sunday.. It was not a heavy topic, but it was good.. cuba pikir2.. banyak actually that sometimes xperasan..

Long lost friends

last sunday, i went to meet two friends ,Farah and Ina whom i havent met for 10 years.. 10 years.. since we were 12. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 years!! okla, 10 years.. 10 years is a long time if you do nothing within those years.. but obviously, we were all soo busy with our own life plus the fact that we never bumped into each other within those years.. hmmm.. baru la terasa lama.. They havent changed, not a single bit.. still funny as ever, and still beautiful.. huhuhu.. and i am still the short one amongst them.. *damn.. i cant grow any taller, can i?? huhuhu. hehehehe..

Ina just gave birth to a baby girl, 3 weeks ago i guess.. I missed the first child. i was able to locate them around the time Ina gave birth to her son, i dont know what happened.. it didnt happen.. so, it is only recently, i browsed thru Friend*ster.. *thank you friendster.. i curik Ina's phone number from a friend..well, Ina left her number in the comment box, so i took it.. *kalau tak, sampai bila la nak dapatkan?? Plus, i was able to locate Farah's webpage as well.. and that was how i managed to do it. it has been 10 years.. owh dear..hmm.. the last time i remember, we were 12, still busy with rollerblades, batu seremban, bottle caps.. now? we're all grown up.. I'm already an AUNT!! *mcm terasa dah tua pulak.. huhu.. Farah is already a working woman.. i myself, have just finished my studies, InsyaAllah and will start working anytime soon.. Ina, married with 2 children.. still doing well in her studies.. wow.. we're all grown up!

dulu2, i used to *tumpang Farah's house when we have sports activities in school. My house then was 10km away from school. No LDP during those days, there was this trunk road that we had to endure traffic jam every morning and evening.. imagine the hassle and kepayahan.. so, going back home for 2-3 hours and coming back for the activities, was just impossible.. so Farah, being so kind, let me stay at her house while waiting to go back to school for the activities.. those were the days.. hmm.. Farah was supposed to update on the small gathering we had.. but what do you expect from a working woman? of course she is busy.. so, lets give her abit more time ya? worse still, i know i should've brought the camera with me, and which i didnt.. so, no pics..

hmm.. i was really happy to get to meet them again and still happy.. farah took me in her ride *best* to get some kuih's for ina and Faliq.. heheh.. and we borak2 mcm makcik2 berborak.. hahaha.. abit of gossips.. well, we just had to, thats what u call updating i guess.. ;) huhuhu.. anyways.. it felt really good to get to meet friends whom we have not met for years.. Lots of things to share, eyh?? hmm..okay, that's about it..

i've got work, houseworks to do.. ciao2..

is it for real?

fuuh...

..finally..


FINALLY!

Exams are over..
No more exams..
(ada forensic exams but that'll be later)

i leave it all to the Almighty for i have given my best shot..
err.. i think soo..

okay, PANGKOR here we come!

togetherness..

why we should do it together?

i have read alot of comments and critics about pharmacists in Malaysia. In the newspaper, on the internet, amongst friends, people whom i met at the hospital. Amongst the things outlined in the newspapers are Pharmacists should not play Doctors. I believe it is true. Pharmacists should not play doctor because, we were not taught how to diagnose patients. But we ought to know as well. People often get mistaken by this. We are not doctors because we dont diagnose. We are drug experts. How do u think a pharmacist will be able to explain how a drug works if he doesnt understand about the disease/condition? And, how would u think a doctor would be able to prescribe the RIGHT medication/s for the patient if he didnt know how it works? Simple as that right?

Its really funny to see the fact that pharmacists and doctors in Malaysia arent united because the scope of work overlaps one another. This is a generalization. I am not referring to all. I was involved in social services. We provided health check-ups like BP monitoring, Glucose and BMI as well as counselling. Many people say that that is the job of a doctor. I believe it is true because i thought that that was a bloody waste of time. The fact is that, Pharmacists are not doctors and regardless of the fact that we are not doctors, we also have the same knowledge. We dont diagnose patients, we refer them to doctors for proper treatment eventhough we know it too. Doctors are the experts in diagnosing, and pharmacists are the experts in the medication. I just dont see why it is so difficult to believe in that. I have many future-doctor friends. And i dont want to be at each others throat just because of all this. I have a friend who is not on good term with her dr aunt just because of this very misunderstanding.

I always believe that doctors are over-doing it. dispensing rights and patient care and u name it in the medical world. Little do they realise that actually what is more important in this situation is the patient. What is the point of finding faults when we can do it together. Nobody is the primary health-care provider. All of us are, and that is what we are trained for. No man is and Island. THAT we have to remember. Pharmacists at the same time should do alot more in terms of knowledge and self-esteem. Read and learn. There are lots of newly published journals regarding treatment and usage of drugs. Our numbers are increasing and we are definitely improving. U cant make everyone to abide the law. There are irresponsible pharmacists.yes, scream it out. there are also irresponsible doctors.

The neighbouring countries are already ahead of us in this matter. Jadi, ape lagi nak bising-bising? lets just shake hands,smile at each other, and start working together. Macam in certain hospitals, Doctors and pharmacists go for ward rounds together. They ask for suggestions and opinions regarding medications from the pharmacists. How cool is that. The pharmacists are also very2 knowldgeable. Nothing is impossible. If money is the problem, maybe we have to revise back why we are doctors and pharmacists. If it is all about you or me, this is not the job. :p Politics cannot get in between this matter as it can be (usually) one-sided. jadi, from now on.. lets stop the fued, and start working together. Good luck people.

well..

life is good..

Our last..

So long, farewell

pharmacy batch 2003/2007

this year's dinner is our last.. after this, all of us will be scattered throughout malaysia.. i am glad, despite all the flaws.. we still had fun.. loads of fun!

the dinner was held at the Grand B*uewa*e.. and i hate the services provided (the waitresses were rude.. erghh!!..) *ada episode bergaduh and marah2 waitress.. padan muke!! ergh.. dahla the ballroom was terribly warm!! i wont say that i sweat out like a pig,but as a matter of fact, I DID!! damn!! habis make up I cair!! hehehe.. i would recommend c**corde. honestly, this one is nothing compared to the one that we organized. our's was way way better.. ergh.. afood was, not so bad.. i would prefer Impiana KLCC over this one here.. the food is way better than this one.. i mean, the service and food is very very very satisfying.. :D

other than that.. ermm.. the drama was funny.. love it to bits.. oh yes.. i love to take pictures.. there were few pictures with myself in it.. haha.. kesiankan?? okla, maybe tak kot.. i love to take pics and not being in it doesnt really bother me at all.. okla.. maybe sometimes, sometimes...;)

these are the ones that i really love.. i mean, the shots.. the quality mmg la kodi sket..but, i like the expressions, the cheerfulness, happiness.. whatever la that suits to describe the joy in those who are in the pics.

i love how these boys err.. men arranged themselves..
cantik.. if only the picture wasnt blur..

V shape ppl.. some of the girls. pretty. :)

siapa pakai kasut biru tu??

to the left to the left!! says beyonce..

lets not be mean ;).. their nostrils are just as pretty as everyone else's..
:p

well, i'm more interested with the fact that i will be graduating (insyaAllah) in less than a month.. but this one here is definitely something that will last forever.. hehehe.. oklah..gotta get to anemia before i start updating again.. *this is sooo not good.. till then.. bye..

sambungan seribu satu cerita...

I actually forgot to update about the potluck party we had yesterday!! how forgetful! anyhow, we had loads of fun! everyone was really happy and ready to stuff the empty stomaches with all sorts of food!! i brought a home-made chocolate cake, (ugly) blueberry cupcakes (without any colourful decor, how ugly.. well that is because i baked 'em myself, right) and kuih bahulu and dodol.. i wasnt able to snap photos during the event because BECAUSE!! i am not bothered to check the batteries.. then, poof *please change batteries.. ahahahaha.. serves me damn right.. so i only have 'before the event' photos.. what a shame.. :( okay, lets just go thru these kejap..

So, quite a number of lecturers attended the party.. hihi.. it felt good seeing them enjoying the 'last' (last?!i can say) gathering with us.. owh dear classmates, we will be graduating soon.. oh no! oh Yesss!! hihihi.. ade lagi sikit gambar that i want ppl to see.. ;)

to be honest really, i dont have alot to share with.. these are the few favourites that i have managed to collect after the stupid hard-disk konged itself last month (thanks to me for tossing the laptop everywhere heartlessly *sigh), and which had costs me a freakin' 280 bucks for a new HD and puts off hope to save the files from that damaged thing.. *sobsob.. but i did get myself a 120G hd.. hoooraaah!! *clapclapclap.. okay.. gotta go.. clinical pharmacy is sooo waiting!! ciao!

This.. is Normal.really?

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullah..

it has been a very-very long time since my last post.. well, alot of things happened for the past two months.. good and not so good.but Alhamdulillah, i'm still doing great! heheh.. Mom and Dad are back from Hajj, and i just love to see them now.. they are still the same parents like before, but i see better Muslim and Muslimah now.. and i wanna be a good Muslimah too.. well, am working on it.. Mom bought lotsa things and Dad bought lotsa books and al-Quran..from Makkah and Medinah..yeay!!
by the way..His birthday was, earlier this month.. had a surprise bday party for him..not quite a surprise.. there were just the two of us though. hahahah.. and he was expecting it, quite.. (well, we only celebrate birthdays). and for that, i ordered "Manchester United" cupcakes.. and he really2 loves it.. i'm glad.. just a bit of update on things..

lalalala

now, this is the best part..
i'm currently doing my final year practical in the hospital, whereby we will rotate by group into different departments and wards.. this week, my group is attached to the Psychiatric ward of H*AR..just a small ward, the ward can occupy max. 10 patients at a time. but, these 'unfortunate' patients have taught me a lot about life.. first of all and most importantly, i am mostly syukur to Allah because,i'm healthy and best of all sane. secondly, i have a family.. a loving family.. when i look at them, insaf!!! thats the word.. INSAF. generally, the male patients are admitted due to drug-induced psychosis..hurmm.. jadi, jgnla cuba2 gatal2 nak isap dadah! ada juga yg major depression,yg schizophrenic.. so, kite kenelah bersyukur..and du'a for good health..

ermm..mcm bosan..i'm sleepy already..ciaoo.. nnt ah sambung

help me decide?

okay.. i dont have to let the whole world know my age and what i wanna do in life and with my life, right? but something caught my attention tonight.. its about making decisions that will definitely change your entire life.. hmmm.. well.. technically, i'm a bit sleepy.. so, this will have to wait.. i hope it wont haunt me in my sleep.. nite.

please-please pimp moi ride

*yawn.. *BIG yawn..

dad : again? there's leakage on ur radiator again? havent we change your radiator before this?
me : yes, i was about to blablablabla.. let the engine run for abit and then i saw drops of water coming from the the radiator.. and yes, i just had it changed last year.

so finally, THAT explains why the spare tank and the radiator gets dried up every two-days at least.. Fuh.. i got pretty nervous thinking that i might need to change the engine.. coz i still believe mine is still good.. well, as a matter of fact.. it is you know.. but because we couldnt explain why it gets dried-up so easily, we think that the engine is already damaged.. but.. yeehaaa!! not the engine!! so sent it to the mechanic and got her a new radiator as well as a new cap for the radiator.. i checked the water/coolen level in both the radiator and spare tank.. yeay! i dont have to add in a single drop of H2O! syukur to Allah.. but it did costed my dad a few hundred bucks to replace it.. poor dad..

so, that is the radiator.. NOW, i'm getting complaints from mom and whoever rides in my car.. 'why is your car shaking as in bergegar? my sis will just go aaaaaaaaaaaaaa.. and u can hear her aaaaaaaaa.. shaking..' hahahah.. dang! and they'll start.. have you sent your tyres for balancing? i think the left arm dah bengkok! should send to the workshop before it gets worse' and so on.. stress.. since dad is already away to the Holy Land of Makkah for Hajj, i cant just simply send the car for repair.. so, my brother said, its the engine mounting.. its damaged.. it obviously needs to be replaced.. but its quite expensive too.. plus, i've just had the radiator changed.. so i said.. nevermind.. it only shakes when i drive around 70-90km/hr.. but i usually drive faster than that.. hahaha.. so.. the car will have to wait for dad to come back.. poor car.. and poor dad.. the advice my bro gave me was 'pls dont la run over pot holes, and drive slow sikit.. jgnla ganas2 on the road..' hhihihi..

so, that's it about my car.. hahaha.. ok.xde dah. bye

Allah be with them

it has been exactly a month since the last entry. well, things have been very-very good.. and i thank Allah so much.. Mom and Dad are away for Hajj. I miss having them around me because i am so used to having them at home all the time.. then, mom would always nag and now, i nag to my younger sister.. poor little girl.. and dad, we would always fight over the TV remote,but now, i have it all for myself.. hmm.. I know, Allah will look after mom and dad.. amiiiin..

today, i have to do some house keeping.. sweep, wipe, re-arrange, and maybe a bit of washing.. plus, my eldest sister will be joining us in the house tonight.. my uncle as well.. and that'll keep me company for this weekend.. yeay. well, since i will be most of the time alone in the house, ive made plans with my auntie to drive down to the city center to check out on some stuff. well, its not and will not be a shopping trip though, but at least again, i dont have to sit at home alone..owh, we also planned to bake.. ice-cream cake-black sesame *yummy!!, pizza, and oreo cheesecake.. i have most of the ingredients ready and we will start soon starting with the black sesame ice-cream cake!

so, dah la tu.. blablabla.. till then.. ciao

A Wedding in December

my deskmate of two years from secondary school will be tying the knot this december.. i cant believe that it is this soon.. i'm not jealous ok! hahaha.. her wedding reception will be held on the 9th of december.. and i have not booked the plane tix.. better hurry! nanti habis.. padan muka! owh yes, presents.. hmmm.. to tell the truth, i get headache everytime i try to look for a wedding present.. i dont want to be carrying pinggan-mangkuk on the plane.. i mean, i'll have to drag the thing with me like everywhere i go.. hmmm.. i really dont know..

kadang-kadang, wedding invitation ni can cause you a headache.. hahaha.. ok, not trying to be mean.. takkan la nak attend wedding org dgn tangan yg kosong kan?! (kalau open-house, xpe la lg, dak?! ;p) well, i still have the time to pandang-pandang.. i hope i'll be able to get something nice and sweet for the newly-weds..

So, Hana & husband (hehehe),
Congratulations and all the best to both of you! May Allah bless both of you and the future generations of the two of you.. amiiin..

emotionally unstable

i dont have much to say.. exams.. i mean, i have given my best shot when answering the questions, now, i leave it to the Almighty.. harap-harap semua ok.. amiin..

i still have one more paper.. ;(

makan-makan

hoho.. its good to have a bit of laughs, jokes, and something non-educational for the day..we even got to eat something other than the ordinary rice (important during exams week).. bukan nya tak makan nasi, i just dont have the time to think of something else to satisfy my hunger or 'gian' menguyah other than rice.. hohohoho.. anyways, its also good to see the girls dress up in nice and sweet clothes, to attend the open house.. owh, it was fun.. something for a change.. i mean, temporarily..




just look at them all smiling.. dont we just love to laugh??! of course we do kan? to my dear classmates, i hope u guys will be able to spend a bit of your time, to stop by at my house, (post-raya open house) and i hope, we'll all have great fun.. okay, i'm getting bored. and i feel sleepy.. prayers first! and ZZzZzzzZzzz......(for an hour only!)

cats!

what does she want? obviously she wont stop meoww-ing.. hihi..poor bebeh.. at the moment, she's facing the door (meowwing), waiting for it to be opened (beh, this is no Ali Baba where u sing for the door to be opened..)

she'll stood there (facing the door) for hours (not hours la.. until someone opens it), and if she caught you watching her, she'll blink her eyes, and pull a sad face.. aaaaww.. and if you ignore her, 1 minutes, 2 minutes, 3 minutes.. meoooooowww!! hahaha.. there she goes.. 'jap la beh!! oh haih!!' ciao..

the temperature went up! again..

*blink-blink*

it rained so heavily today.. accompanied by strong wind.. and it blew my umbrella away.. (and got it damaged). 2 km away from home, my car went over-heat.. (again.. *wink) well, i had just refilled the spare tank on sunday.. (it was empty then) but anyways, there was no leak from the engine, the 'minyak pelincir' is still within the required range.. Alhamdulillah.. i fret for a while.. "why now? why when it's raining so heavily?!" and at times, i was swearing to the car.. "bodoh la.. why la now?!" "tak gune punye kete" hahah.. then it strucked me.. all the 'what if' questions u know.. "what if it happened on the exams day? and the day was hot?!" or "what if it happened to my sisters who would not know how to react?!" (not many ppl look at the Temp indicator) i do, coz it happened a few times already..

owh, thanks Allah.. i mean, it was not that bad, the rain cooled down the engine way way faster than it could if it was a hot afternoon.. and my sisters, they were very concerned about me, they came all the way with 3 bottles of water to fill-up the radiator.. and a pump station being only 1000m away from where i stopped my car.. i must thank Allah that it happened today.. it could've been worse.. what a day.. really.. pheeww!!

the moral of the story, never leave the house when its raining so heavily.. the umbrella just wont do any good.. hihihi.. secondly.. always check the radiator.. at least once a week.. plus the spare tank.. always always ALWAYS!! or have a big bottle of water in the car, in case of emergency.. hhuhu.. and dont swear to your car.. they'll swear back at you.. and will make u suffer real bad. hahaha.. ok, toodles..

waiting on the world to change

now we see everything that's going wrong
with the world and those who lead it
we just feel like we dont have the means
to rise above and beat it

so we keep on waiting
waiting on the 'world' to change

of course we do see.. a good example, Da**r E***omi B**u. they preach about the 'Need' to help Bumi entrepreneur to grow better.. mcm cendawan tumbuh selepas hujan.. at the expense of the other races having to 'sacrifice' what they already have achieved for the 'pitiful' Bumi entrepreneurs (that was really, an embarrassment to us) of course i remembered.. so? to help these 'unsuccessful' group, the S**te G*vs were given the authority to select the rightful and MOST Deserving BEs to run the project.. little did we know that, what they mean by B*mi Ents is actually the D**os and Da**ks who knows very little/knows nothing about the the-whatever-project they bid for instead of those who are good/experts in doing 'that-thing'. we have to remember, it is all about money. i repeat ALL about money.

so? siapa yg pathetic and pitiful B**i Ents? i bet it was all about them.. and their K*tes.. and we're all back at square one.. i know the world is just one unfair place.. it is worse because of all these crooks (i shall call them that..) in my whole life, i've always hold on to this sayings that 'what goes around comes around'.. so.. u know what i mean.. and it left me wondering..'arent they afraid of death?' 'arent they afraid of their GOD?' obviously.. from what i can see is that, they are not really mu***ms, but they are ma**ys.. we can become rich and famous even if we're honest people.. but i guess, some ppl prefers to take the easy-way, u know what i mean..

i have definitely blabbered too much.. but i find the necessity to blabber because, i'm totally annoyed.. i think we're all too complacent to even want to change it eventhough we know what is going on.. but u know, i man can never do it.. it takes all of us young people.. to change it and make this country a better place to live in (than now la..)..

this is too much.. okay, gotta go..

roses are red..

roses are red,
vioets are blue...


good nite! ;)

when my stomach sings..

that means.. i am hungry.. starving..
