We Can Work It Out.

I cant believe its going to be over soon.
Internal Med department is going to be over in just a few hours!!

Cant believe I made it through the 2 weeks in freaking Cilacap, surviving on just one kedai makan during the fasting month.

Can't believe I spent raya away from home for the very first time.

Can't believe I made it through the 2 weeks in Banyumas, barfing and puking my way through most of the long tiring days and sleepless nights there.

Can't believe I made it through oncall for one whole week during Jagumm, where my life was only between the hospital and home. no no make that between hospital and my bed, and that's it for one week.

Can't believe I had to listen to Dota-talk and wars and history and whatever guys weirdly feel interesting about for the whole nine weeks :)) 0_0

Most importantly I cant believe we survived the most impossible, difficult tutor of all time. We survived BJ! 9 weeks of mind games. 9 weeks of mental torturing. and alas, I got a praise out of him on our very last meeting!

it's been a tough week for all of us. exams and my good friend is still in the hospital, get well sooooon will ya! and lately we've been getting news about people suddenly dying at a very young age. doesnt it makes you feel scared? doesnt it makes you realized that we dont really have much time left? that it could end at any given second. even the Beatles knew this and sang,

"Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friend..."

Superman.

'I'm no Superman,
But I love you the best I can.
Don't you know I'm no Superman,
But I'll always be your man."
-Ronan Keating-

I wonder why Jerry Siegel, a writer from USA, created the superhero Superman in the year 1933.

I wonder why he created this idea of a man of steel. A man with super absurd ability. Someone who could see through walls. Someone who could fly. Someone impossible.

Maybe he lost faith in humanity. Maybe he needed a hero. Maybe he thought we needed to be save. Maybe he was bored.

But most of all i wonder,
-My Blankie-


Why does he have to make him wear his briefs on the outside?

Only Human.

I was brought up in a small town called Kulim. It is somewhere in Kedah, and only 30 minutes away from Penang. I know sometimes it seems as though im too obsessed with Kulim. It is only natural, don't u think? Ofcourse u'll fall in love with the place you spend most of your childhood days and teenage years in. I spent 22 years of my life in Kulim. My first of a lot of things happened while I was growing up in Kulim.

My first step, my first fall and skinned my knee, my first friend, my first kindergarten concert where I sang a P Ramlee song in front of people on a stage, my first bicycle ride, my first school, my first sport's day, my first choir performance in short purplr polkadot skirt, my first phone call from a guy, the first time I drove a car, my first bus ride with friends without my parents permission and lost my purse, my first camping trip, my first car accident, and a whole lot more. Ofcourse I have a special feeling towards it. I was born in Penang, but Kulim's got my heart. It's my hometown. If I were born and raise in Kelantan, or Labuan, or freaking Texas USA, I would be in love with those places too.

People can kutuk Kulim all they want, I get that all the time, but I don't mind. Because what they say is the truth.

Yes we can get from one end to the other in less than 20minutes.
Yes we still sell food under the tree.
Yes Kulim still don't have McDonald's.
Yes we personally know the abang who sells mee goreng to a point where we could just call him up and order and come pick it up later.
Yes the aunty who sells cendol lets us drink in the car, with her mangkok and all, in front of her stall.
Yes the newspaper man likes to pinch Firas's cheeks haha
and knows exactly what newpaper to bring at the sight of my father's car.
Yes Kulim is a small town or tak maju or whatever people think of it.

But I love it anyway. In fact, I love it BECAUSE of all of those things. Kind of like when u're in love with someone who is not so bright, or not so good looking, but because you're in love, none of that matters.

But I guess not everyone is as open and can take criticism that way. So I think it's best not to go around asking people from East Malaysia if they still live on trees, or go to school by sampan. Or ask those from Kelantan if they know what a cinema is. Or how can they possibly live without one. Or ask if Perlis is really a state on its own. Or ask Kulim-ites if they still sell things under the tree. Some of them would take it as a compliment, and be proud of having something other state doesn't. But some would actually feel insulted. Some people can take it, some can't. We have to accept that.

Anywayyyyy, Kedah or Terengganu, or Johor, or Sabah, or whatever, we are all Malaysian. We have the same IC. We eat at the same mamak's stall. We get the same TV stations. We all eat nasi lemak. We all agree our local football team sucks. We dislike Fasha Sandha. We are proud of what Malaysia has grown into over the years. We have the same Prime Minister. We are one. Ooooooo, so that's what they meant by 1Malaysia:-"

Chill peeps, what's more important is that,
we are only human.
