it's that time again

it's the time for exams again. yep next week. ONG finals is terribly scary coz this posting is notorious for the high failure rates. i love ONG but the enviroment here in UIA and Kuantan's Hospital ain't that encouraging.

Amani went back to Austria last monday. it has been very interesting getting to know her.

last weekend there was a compulsory programme for the leaders in the campus from all societies. i wouldn't have gone if not for the white water rafting they offered in their agenda. hmm, twas very cool.

Amani in JB

last weekend, i brought amani back to jb with me. JB was HOT i tell ya. dah lah our house takde aircond. rase nak mandi all the time je. alhamdulillah mak and ayah were around so we could bring her jalan2 gi hutan bandar yg dah uzur, danga bay waktu siang yg takde pape and jalan2 around utm.

i tried wearing my tudung like amani's (miss anonymous must be gasping if she reads this). but i'll stick to the way i wear it now.

i learnt a lot about our different cultures and traidtions. hmm, sangat menarik. i also took the oppurtunity at home to watch ummahfilms on youtube and the tazkirah videoclips were soo funny. people shud watch it. about 1 million peeps have oredi viewed it.

gravida 0 para 10

alhamdulillah. i have a completed family now. gravida 0 (coz neva pregnant) but para 10 (got 10 babies). 5 girls and 5 boys. if only they were mine. one lady even wanted to name her child after me. bangga gile ni.

Amani's a Palestinian living and studying medicine in Austria. She's currently doing her elective posting in ONG here in kuantan.

at the Triple I Symposium on fiqh medic. i can't meet ustazah hamidah and her kids. confirm i tak dapat dengar talk coz layan those kids :P

with some of the Triple I committees after the programme.

healed by time

i guess i was too emotional in the last entry. can't remember much what happened after that. but, i'm okay with the nurse now alhamdulillah.

it's been ages since i last logged on to the net.

it's been a hellish past 2 weeks. so much happened. so much work. so tired.

triple i programme settled.

src video-conferencing, baiah session was sempoi and tah pape but SRC is endorsed, finally!

conducted 9 deliveries and repaired 2 episiotomies. (there's 2 nurses that i absoultely adore: SN zarina and SN rubiah, they were soo patient with me)

still behind in case presentations.

helping out Palestinian med student from Vienna Uni, Austria with elective posting.

mar'atussolehah talks. Prof Muhaya's talks are always inspiring and refreshing.

the sequence of events that occured most of the time were related to each other.

for example, there was one day when i woke uo late and missed the bus to the hospital (since i'm posted to labour room now, jadi don't worry peeps, i won't get in trouble iA). i got 2 messages, both requiring me to do tasks at IMC instead of JHC aka hospital. alang2 dapat chance ytk gi imc, i settled a few things that i've been waiting to settle for ages. there was soo much i had to do and think about, and when one of the matters didn't go according to plan, my tears could not be contained. i was soo stressed out and frustrated because i didn't know who to turn to for advice. a junior who saw me cry asked me about it and i let out my prob a bit. it was quite relieveing. that very night, kak chik called me asking about how the humongous responsibility that comes with leadership frightened her less she could't do a good enuf job. i guess, consoling her was therapeutic for me too.

ONG is all about waiting!

"Patience Iago, patience!" (guess who said that and from where?) haha, a much-needed diversion for me.

i used to dream of being an ONG specialist becoz of my duties to the ummah. now, an 8 to 5 job seems much more desirable.
