Time flies real quick...I'm already entering my final 3 weeks of my semester break
It was great fun coz for the past month I was stress free from studies and also exams.. Although I just scraped through passing Sem 3..I'm just thankful that I won't have to resit my finals coz its even more traumatising sitting for a resit exam than the actual final exam itself..
Me and my close friend, Gowri joined by Jebbrine, Bryan and Kah Heng...we all decided to take up kick boxing classes for elective.. And when asked by other people, the reaction we often got was.."Wah! Don't mess with them!"..LOLz
Although it was scary for us as well coz we didnt know what to expect at the beggining, but after our trial class..we found that its really fun and we actually exercised!! We also had fun time laughing at each other especially when we were always grilled by the instructors to "Kick harder!More power!Punch harder!" more times than any other people taking the same class...
Being blur and all...we were also hit with many comments done jokingly...like "Punch harder, don't stroke it softly!It's meant to be hit hard!"
But after classes, although feeling fresher....muscles start to ache, tiredness take its place...
On the other hand, we also took the opportunity to go hang out after classes...and it was really fun too...I got to hang out with friends and chat with them, catch up with them coz I haven't really mingled with them in uni for a while...
Tomorrow's the final class for our so called elective purpose but we are gonna continue it coz we've enjoyed ourselves so far...Gotta get rest...

TiOmAn RoCKs!!
Wow...its been a while since I've been to the beach for a holiday...and thanks to my parents...I got to go to the beautiful island off Pahang just before entering Johor....Tioman!!
The island surrounded by beautiful corals and marine life which just captivates ur eyes...blue water, clear skies (away from hazy kl)...sunny days...sandy beach..
Rooms were kampung-like style..but we got a connecting room...and walking was a must coz the resort was really big...so just to get to the reception and restaurants would take about 4-5 minutes...But the good thing was its so quiet and relaxing..
The boat ride to the island was horrible...coz the engine was really noisy and i could still hear it ringing in my ears even after I got off the boat...and as usual...my hyperactive stomach was growling away in hunger so once I got to the restaurant which took hours to prepare my meal...I gobbled everything and even ordered for another bowl of tioman laksa...
Next day was exciting though...coz its my 1st time snorkelling!You see, I have this fear of things beneath the sea water...so I was terrified la...and the 1st stop...I didnt dare to move around on my own...plus my mum panicked on water and she got sea sick after that...and my dad had a hard time trying to breathe with the snorkelling goggles through his mouth..lolz
So the 2nd stop, one of the assistants on the boat joined us snorkelling and offered to take me around to see interesting marine life...before I could say yes or no...he took my hand and there we went swimming around...I was shaking coz I was really scared...but after a while..I began to enjoy myself...looking at the things below despite being scared of the things moving below...
The final stop, we actually went exploring round the small island surround by beautiful swordfishes and corals as well as other fishes...
Hooray!! I conquered my fears...and it was a great experience...
But then...my arms ached like crazy after that coz of the swimming and the kickboxing I did the day before we headed for Tioman...
Anywayz...it was all worth it...Haha!!I had great holiday with my family....and thats wat counts...

ReFLeCTioNs...
Lying on my bed..walking down memory lane...I was looking back on how my life used to be...
I was always a person with really strong principals and in my eyes there was never a grey area. It was always black or white (right/wrong). And the world around me seemed always against me and I felt that it was way better to just be a loner...I always thought I dont need friends coz no one liked me anyway...and everytime I tried to be friends...I felt used...bullied...
As I progressed from one stage to another of my life...I realised it doesnt matter if I felt used..or if others would take advantage of me....The only thing that counts would be my values...and whether I am right with God...And, isolation from making friends...was just out of anger against the people who bullied me...
Later in life...pressures and expectations of what I would do in the future...exams...studies.... things like that came about...
People around me keep comparing me...judging my character and even my appearance...even my dream to be a doctor was challenged by them.....
"Medical school very tough wan...U sure u can handle arr?" I seem to get that a lot once they found out becoming a doctor was wat I intended to pursue...
Exams weren't a problem previously...but then suddenly at college level...everytime an exam comes along..whether its big or small exams....I get cramps...butterflies in my tummy...I loose my apetite..I hated it!! But I can't control my body's response...
Of course...I felt it wasnt fair...."Why do I have to fit in?Why do I have to live up to others' expectations of me?Why do I need to worry of what others would think of me?"
Well..guess who answered all of these questions?"GOD"..He thought me how to cope with these issues...How?
Worry about others thoughts of me would basically show my insecurities...so why do I have to be insecure if I know my identity in God?I'm His child and He loves me...what more can u ask for?
As for living up to people's expectations and be under their judgements...Its what human do...
They judge others to make themselves feel better about themselves...But being put into these stressful and pressured situations made me a much stronger person....more confident of myself...and also stronger in God bcoz He was the one who helped me through all the way...
Every single thorn that comes my way He is the one who heals all the cuts and pain...
"I do hope that whoever reads this would get some assurance and encouragement...that yes, we do live in a tough world...full of pressures and expectations...but if u believe in God and trust in Him...plus surrendering all that is bothering you...I'm sure that He'll show you the light to your dark path...just as what He had done for me..."

FRieNDs....
Friends are important people in our lives so that includes me as well...
So far all my friends have placed a positive impact in my life....although sometimes there are disagreements, arguments, misunderstandings....along the way...
However, I find that a friend of mine has been at times really close to me....and we seem to have lots in common....so, it made me feel great to hav such a friend....
Then at times..suddenly...things just turn cold....the friend seem to have built a barrier in between us (the friend distants away from me) and it saddens me...Feeling dissapointed, I would also do the same and distant myself from my friend... thinking that maybe I did something wrong...or the person was tired of me...
The next moment....the friend of mine....approached me in close manner again....as if nothing had happened...things seemed normal again!!And I kinda felt this friend doesn't even know wats going on at all...
BUT is it trully normal?I don't know!!At first, I thought I was being overly sensitive about it and so...I decided to discard all those negative feelings away. Somehow, I couldn't help it but feel dissapointed or sad when it became a cycle that never ended..
I believe I was angry at the beggining..probably thinking how come my friend could be so insensitive..but as time goes by...i knew anger wasn't right coz it wasn't my friend's fault..
Honestly I had no solution neither I know why the friend of mine was that way bcoz the person doesn't even know wat was going on...
All I could think of was to look at things at a positive angle which was to continue to be a good friend but, at the same time do my very best in not letting my friend affect my emotions... although its something that I'm still struggling with currently...
"I really do want the best for that friend of mine...and I still do value the friendship we made..."
But I guess...things doesn't always turn out the way you want them to be...and I've gotta live with it!!

A LittLe SoMeTHiNG FrOm Me 2 U...
I just wanna send this little message to my friends who happen to read my blog and are feeling down bcoz of life's stresses and uncertainties....I wanna share this with u coz I've been in the same position and God has brought me through it...and things tend to look brighter ever since...***Whether this would help u I am not 100% sure but it has brought me through a lot and I'm still carrying it with me...so I trully pray and hope it'll do the same for u***
Its ok to feel scared or stressed out on all the pressures around us....sometimes it feels like the world is against us although we have big dreams to help ppl and do good..."Will any uni take me?"..."Will I be able to succeed?"...."Should I take the offer?"...."Will I be able to cope and focus?"..."How will I do in exams?"....
These questions constantly play in our minds and surely at times they collect and overwhelm us causing stress...or even meltdowns...
We have to remember this is part and parcel of life's journey and these things are what makes us strong and successful...prepared to face the even tougher world ahead...So learn to take things one step at a time...REMEMBER ur PASSION....ur DREAMS....never let the fire fade away....ANd of course TRUST in God that He will provide u with everything up ahead according to His will...and also believe in yourself bcoz each person has his or her gifts and potential to do great things in life....
So remember that when things dont seem right or you feel squashed by the different pressures and expectations...hold on tightly to your goals and dreams....never give up and commit all those stuff that are pushing you down to God and "trust in Him that His plans for u are to prosper u and not to harm u..."

God ShOwEd Me THinGs Aren't So BaD AfTeR aLL!!
Feeling the way that I felt was always just temporary...Somehow...the feelings of anger, unappreciated, sad, dissapointment just died away....of course, a friend did play a role in helping to dissolve those -ve feelings...
Something just came to me...and I realised that it wasnt necessary for me to feel that way at all...It doesnt matter who is on the active side when it comes to helping others...neither does it matter whether my good deed was returned with gratitude coz I'm God's child....God is love and goodness....so I shall be that way too...
God helped me realise all those things....and I even felt so foolish for feeling that way in the 1st place...as for being cared by someone...I believe God will send that person to me someday...but for now....I'm great the way I am...and Thank God for making me the way I am!!

LiFe SoMeTiMeS LeT Me DoWn...
I've never felt this feeling for a while now...the feeling of being left out...of not belonging.... Walking alone watching everyone pass me by...trying to stay composed and preventing myself from breaking down overwhelmed by those mixed emotions.....
I felt myself trying sort the turmoil of emotions running through my mind..."was it my fault?"...
"why did i allow it to happen?"....."why was I so nice when i didnt hav to be?"..."why am i feeling this way?It's silly!!"..."why am i so silly to put myself in vulnerable positions?"..."I wished I had someone who would comfort me...be the one who would try to care for me....and not me always on the active side alone"
At times I would feel myself being so gullible and simple....and silly....
Always tend to be the active one in caring for someone....even when ppl around me probably would not want my help....or even get intimidated by my eagerness to help...and finally in the end feel like i wasn't appreciated...but either way its my fault...i put myself in this position...

One DoWn..AnOtHeR to Go!! PaSS or FaiL??
Today was the day viva list where students with borderline are listed to go for an aural exam was released...This exam is a 2nd chance for students who almost pass to Pass!! Going for this exam is superbly stressful and my heart was racing anticipating the release of the list this morning...
The agony of waiting is torturing but wat to do? Its all part and parcel of med school life...
Praise God that I wasnt on that list.....BUT!! WHen the actual results are out this FRIDAY.... it would be between PASSING or FAIL...Agony Over?? NOT!!However looking on the bright side of things happening....its great to be surrounded by really great friends...who share the same feelings and support one another with love and encouragement....TimHo, TimChew, Victoria, Jane, Michelle, KhunYing, Matthew...
We spent time together shopping at Bk Bintang 2day...which was really fun....and then had a scrumptous steamboat dinner that filled me up to my neck and could not move....but the fellowship that we had was priceless...and I'm blessed to hav such great friends...
Tomorrow..we'll be going to Genting....along with THomas and Man Keat I think...and I'm sure it'll be great fun too...CAn't Wait!!

ExAm'S OvEr..but Nightmare isn't Over Yet!!
I know that life is never easy...and lots of effort is needed to reach our goals...but the high goals I set myself at the beginning of med school seems to just drop to a level where all I wanna do is pass this finals and be able to continue progressing to Sem 4...
I never thought or dreamt that at this stage of my life...my ability to hold myself together...to stay calm and composed is simply lost...the anxiety and twisted emotions I feel wouldn't leave me even after countless times of telling myself to calm down and be confident...I keep feeling my tummy being squeezed and twisted...and my brain frozen...unable to recall anything....but still praying to God asking to stay calm and composed did help me a lot from falling apart....
Even after going through finals...I still can't believe that its done!! All I have to to now is wait for results to be released next week...but that's another nightmare coz looking at how things worked out during exam..where practically most of the questions asked were so tough plus stupid mistakes made along the way didn't help at all...
But in the end..I'm am thankful to God that He has brought me through this week...that I can
at least complete my exam...the rest is up to Him to decide for me...but I do pray that I'll be able to pass and proceed to the next level of med school...For now...I am glad to complete the exam.. coz it seemed impossible to me last week..
"and yet look where God has brought me...I know He will definitely never ever fail me!!"

In a Dilemma..
Every person in Sem 3 rite now is going through the same thing...No time!!So much to cover!! And after completing the 1st part...progressing to the next...Oh No!!Forgot the 1st part I covered...Its really frustrating...
And having to memorise the life cycle and how each parasite and bacteria looks like just sucks away your interest...I really wish I had a super brain where I only hav to read once...I'd remember everything...
But life isn't easy...and it doesn't come easy at all...If we don't work hard then we won't feel the joy of success either....I'm trying to concentrate but distractions seem to come very often and its really hard even to focus...
I guess I need to push myself and make a commitment to put my very best...I seem to have lost my confidence in my studies bcoz everything I learnt this whole year...I cant recall...
I'm already anxious bout my last summative results...and now facing this big exam..failing is definitely a big NO...I cant afford to fail... I'll be 10 times more stressed out having to resit...I sure wouldnt want to put myself in that situation...
I know that God will help me through..I do believe..but the current situation I see myself in makes me scared of how things would turn out at the end of the day...
Deep down I know that no matter what..God is with me..He has always been there for me... I just pray that through this tough period...I wont waste my time anymore and I'll have enough time to finish studying..before finals sets in...
"Lord, pls help me not to be in panic or to feel anxious...but grant me the discipline and concentration as well as a good memory to be prepared for my finals in July...I commit everything into Your hands for I trust in You always...In Jesus' name...Amen"

JuSt PrAiSe RoCkS!!
This week is the beginning of my study break before sem 3 finals but I cant seem to get myself to concentrate and study....I keep getting distracted and it feels so difficult to concentrate and focus...Haihz...
The highlight of my week was "JUST PRAISE"...it was great...all the youths of the church gathering together and praising God in the church sanctuary plus Juwita Suwito performing... It just feels so refreshing and I was amazed at how God works in our lives...
Growing up as a Methodist in church..it was mainly traditional...but to see God making the church a place appealling and relevant to youths today by creating opportunities for us to gather and praise God in a contemporary way...where we are free to dance, jump, raise our hands to Him... Indeed I believe that God is bringing revival among the youths of the church...and I definitely would not wanna miss out on that...
Plus listening to Wai Ming share about his vision on the youths of the church getting on the train prepared by God during MYF...made it even clear that indeed revival is here and is starting among the youths...

My SuPeRb & CrAzY WeeK
Last week was a crazy week...mock OSCE was on Monday and GI exam was on Friday and I was totally not prepared yet...there were tons and tons of notes pilling up and it seemed impossible to finish...I felt my brain so saturated with info but at the same time the things I read were starting to seep out of my brain too....Arrgh!! Trying to cover everything before Friday...I've been sleeping within 2-4am throughout the whole week....plus during the day there were still lecs going on..
Friday finally came...although I was pretty exhausted but there was excitement in me coz at night it was GRIP (Good Relationships In Progress).It was an MYF camp in church during the weekend. But I had to go through the 1st hurdle which was my GI test...and boy it was hard... after the debriefing I felt that I had done quite a lot of mistakes...but its done and I cant do anything else about it...I'm just glad God brought me through the crazy week especially when He helped me through the mock OSCE which I was so nervous and anxious about. I tot I would not be able to perform but the Doctor examining me actually came up and told me I did quite well..."Praise God!!"
The best part of the week finally came and it felt so refreshing just to hang out with MYFers once again and had tons and tons of fun after a stressful week...Although it was tiring but I couldn't stop myself from wanting to have fun so the tiredness was perpetually just pushed aside...running around at KLCC for the treasure hunt was tiring and frustrating at times but it felt great when we finally finished the hunt..and well..our group couldn't believe that we actually won coz we actually finished last..
The talk by Pastor Sivin Kit was great too as he spoke on securing our soul with God and taking the leap of faith with Him..putting our trust and making a commitment to get serious with Him and let Him lead us through all the way...which was something I think I needed to hear since Sem 3 finals is just around the corner and stress levels are already increasing..
As a whole..God really blessed me with a superb week where everything just fell into place and I had so much fun...so Thank You God for the great week!!
Friday finally came...although I was pretty exhausted but there was excitement in me coz at night it was GRIP (Good Relationships In Progress).It was an MYF camp in church during the weekend.
