Daily Routine

Trying to procrastinate, maka marilah kita berbelogzzzz

This is for me, say, if this blog still exists in 2020, Nadzirah, this is what you used to do 9 years ago in your final year of dental school..


I usually wake up around 6.40-7. Depends on the time, I might perform my Subuh first or take a shower. After I'm done with both I will go down to prepare the breakfast and have breakfast in front of my laptop while watching Youtube videos, browsing 9gag, blogs yeah all those craps. Around 8-8.15 I will start to put on my proper clothes and get ready for the day..

8.20-8.30 I will depart for school. Took me 10 minutes on average walking journey to the hospital. Sampai hospital I will change into my scrub and go to wherever I need to go depending on the day. Normally for the morning sessions I have Oral Surgery on Tuesday, Paeds on Wednesday, Restorative clinic on Thursday and tutorial on Friday. Sometimes we have lecture on Friday morning so I have to be in school by 8.30.


Clinical sessions could last until 12-12.30. Sometimes if I'm doing Oral med/theatre it could go up to 1.30. We have break until 2. In between that time I will have my lunch and perform the prayer.


Next session starts at 2. Again, I have treatment sessions with patient on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. A session could last until 5-5.30. Sometimes I might have to stay back to do some labwork. And then I'll go back home. On the way back I might also make a detour to Tesco (mostly) or Neulook/Awear (occasionally)


Sampai rumah I will dig the fridge trying to get something to eat coz I'll be very hungry by then. Sometimes I prepare my dinner straightaway sometimes I will take a break first, depending on the level of energy.


Normally when I have a full day in the hospital (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday) I will be too tired to study. Sometimes I managed to do something sometimes I just can't. Might need to work on something with my energy level and motivation to start studying on those days coz exam is just like few weeks away!


Tapi tu lah, cakap je lebih. Sekarang kau tengah buat apa? Bazir masa tulis blog! Cit podaaah

Setting up priorities

Luahan perasaan sekejap sementara tunggu nak Zohor. hewhewhew kena taip laju-laju sebab dah berjanji kat diri nak Zohor lepastu start prepare untuk tutorial.


So...sekarang nak final year, kan? Jadi workload adalah menimbun. Stress pun adalah banyaaaaaaaaak sangat. Masa tu kadang-kadang macam rasa tak cukup. Kalau hari ada klinik penuh, malam kadang-kadang dah terlalu penat untuk buat apa-apa. Malam pun saya dah kena start tidur awal nak dapatkan tenaga maksimum for the day. Itu pun kadang-kadang tak maksimum mana tengahari mengantuk mata berair-air. Kenapalah tenaga kurang sangat these days?


6 January ni ada first written final exam, RD. Banyaaaaaaak sangat benda nak cover takuuuuuut sangat sebenarnya. Exam tu of course la portion dia besar jugak besides clinical semua so I must pass it well no matter what. Sebulan lagi pulak nak kena hantar logbook. Patient-patient kat klinik pun agak tak teratur and requirement adalah agak tunggang-langgang sekarang, banyak faktor buat saya resah sekarang. Plus saya ini otaknya adalah pelan-pelan bertukar menjadi kurang pandai semenjak masuk yunibersiti ni jadi kena kerja lebih :(


Masa nak bergumbira sekarang pun patut dilimitkan. Ada, bukan tak ada. Tiap-tiap minggu pun adeeee je masa diperuntukkan. Kadang-kadang rasa bersalah kat diri sendiri tapi kadang-kadang rasa I needed that break. Tapi kadang-kadang I had to isolate myself kadang-kadang buat saya rasa ketinggalan kadang-kadang buat rasa sedih but I had to do this.. :(


Priorities, priorities. It is gonna be soooooo hard to put them on their right places, it takes a lot of sacrifices but hopefully it's gonna be worth it. Hopefully. Ya Allah, berikan aku kekuatan. Awak-awak yang terbaca ni doakan saya juga yeh?

Of creating a should-not-be-a-problem problem

Hi all. First of all, I hope none of you will judge me after reading this phone. Eceyh risau plak apa orang kata. Eceyh ade ke orang baca blog ni lagi. Eceyh banyak plak eceyh.


I have this weird problem with phones. Almost every year, I must change to a new phone. No matter how attached I am to that phone, when the time comes, I started to get itchy and will search around for new phone.


I've been a loyal Nokia user ever since my first ever 3210 phone back in 2002. Last year, I kind of accidentally bought a 2nd hand BB from eBay and has been loving the phone since I started using it. I developed my loyalty towards BB....until the recent outage with the blackberry network around Europe/Mid East/US which got me thinking, a BB without it's BIS is just, a dumbphone (quoting Atiqah Mahmood's tweet)


Now...the time has come for another phone and I'm having this major (?) dilemma of what should be my next phone. Before the BB outage I was all geared up for the new Bold 9900. Post-BB-problem, I'm left with thousand of uncertainties..confusion..


First of all, I love BB. The keyboard is a major factor here. I loathe touch screen phones. It's either my fingers are too fat for it or I simply love the idea of pressing the keypads you know..to type words. I used to have Nokia 5600 which is a combination of touchscreen and keypad phone and I kinda stopped texting with people for about a year....unless it's really important. Yup, it's THAT bad. Plus I get to reply text messages while I'm driving with those magnificent keypads.


Second of all, I'm gonna miss BBM - the ever great exclusive BB users only instant messaging system. I have few close friends in my BBM list that I can bug when I'm bored. I'm also in the BBM group consisting my ex schoolmates who sometimes went cuckoo and started talking rubbish but I still love them anyway. Sometimes I woke up in the morning to cute pics of my niece whom I'm missing badly from my sis-in-law in the BBM. Sometimes she changed her profile picture with my niece's pic, of which sometimes I stole and saved it in my phone. I know, we have Whatsapp but it's..just not the same.


The major drawback of having BB is it is pretty much a less fun-er phone as oppose to iphone and androids, application wise. That's why it became a dumb phone when the internet service is gone because no BBM, no twitter, no whatsapp. Plus it has No cool games (like angry bird :P), No rubbish farting apps etc. Sebagai orang berjiwa muda, this is quite a drawback lah :P


Another plus point of having a non-BB-smartphone is having Skype in the phone. Which made it easier if were to contact anyone from home when I'm away from the laptop. I must say, if the Bold 9900 has Skype and some fun photo editing app it would make my decision much easier.


I think if I were in Malaysia right now, I would definitely go for BB. Coz I drive a lot so I would prefer a keypad-phone. My families and close friends are around me so there is no necessity for Skype. I will be spending time in the mall, in the car, with the family with the friends so there is no need to dedicate my life to playing with phone apps. Plus I know my LFU (love friendship unite, SMSS 0004) bros would be nagging on staying with BB. Haha..


But now that I'm here, I would love to have Skype on my phone to communicate with those who are thousand miles away from me. I kind of does my stuff alone more (like going to class, shopping etc) so having a fun phone would be a major plus point here.


I give myself til the 8th of November to make decision oh em gee helppppppppppppp.


Oh yeah it's a BB vs iPhone coz the Droids came from all sorts of manufacturer which made it even more confusing. Plus, I don't like the design of most of the phones. Heheh..
