Projects : 2009
I have great plans for 2009. I’d like to call them PROJECTS (resolutions are so passe. 
)
LEARN TO COOK. I think a microwave oven and a copy of Jamie Oliver’s Ministry of Food : Anyone Can Learn To Cook in 24 Hours would be excellent starter tools. It’s only right that a person who loves her food should learn to make some for herself.
Ahem, my birthday is coming…
FIND MY WAY BACK TO KUCHING. Not divulging any premature details here lest my efforts are jinxed, but the process has begun. Am keeping my fingers and toes firmly crossed. 
Can’t wait to be back here!
LOSE THE FLAB. The biggest misconception of the general public is that “skinny” girls starve to stay that way, and that fat days don’t happen to them. As my metabolism sputter to an unforgivably slow rate, I’m being punished for my blatant disregard for calorie counts and my uneasy relationship with this thing called “exercise”. I don’t know how yet, but I’m going to fit into those skinny jeans again!
MAKE THE TOTAL SWITCH TO MAC. My Compaq notebook is dying a slow and painful death (it takes 5 minutes to open a RAW file). I think I should get hubby a MacBook for his birthday. Oh, it’d be his entirely, but I’m sure he’d let me use it too. 
ONE BOOK AT A TIME. I seriously can’t remember the last book I actually finished reading…was it Tuesdays With Morrie? Recent abandonment include The Opposite of Fate, The Kite Runner, Atonement and The Last Lecture. I will finish my next book.
CONTINUE BLOGGING. But no more work-related posts. I don’t know how to be genuine (in expressing my frustrations) without offending people. Besides, there are more important things in life than risking a peptic ulcer or rupturing an aneurysm ranting about lazy co-workers (and not like I’m perfect too).
You know what’s the best part? Everybody gets to start anew with each passing year. You can always have a PROJECTS 1.1 if PROJECTS 1.0 don’t work out.
Happy New Year! 
(not having such a great start to the year after all; stand-by duty at the palace on 31st and 3rd, on call on 1st 
)

Having survived the most dramatic call of my professional life yesterday, and having to work again tomorrow (while the rest of the nation are still on vacation), I’m determined to enjoy myself today.
I woke up to glorious sunbeams peeking through the gauzy curtains (actually the heat had started to make me sweat). No irritating [...]
2008…The Year That Was
Some favourite snapshots of 2008
2008 could be better, but I’m thankful for very single day.
Attended my first ever rock concert. Woo hoo!
Got a macro lens. A whole new world opens up.
Met up with some fellow bloggers. Free flowing conversation and good food. Sure beats online meetings anytime!

Ignorance In Wards
We were having coffee in the morning when the hospital’s longest serving house officer in a department (more than a year?) shoved the morning paper into our faces.
NO ROOM FOR IGNORANCE IN HOSPITAL WARD by A Doctor, Seremban
It was an angry letter, the sort I’d written a million times in my head when mediocrity among [...]
What About Us?
My husband was on call the night before and he came home at 4 am after spending the whole day in the OT, in a noble attempt to clear the list. The call before this, he returned to shower just as I was getting ready for work and left again for the hospital before I [...]
