Someone I love dearly

Today is my dad 50th birthday.

I'm a daddy's girl in a not-so-obvious way. Well, I guess I get everything from him from the physical look till the personality. My dad is a very thin man. No matter how much he eat, he will always end up in that size. Me? More or less the same. I usually eat twice of what my friends eat but I hardly gain any weight. He's also a very tall man. And so do I. A very tall, pretty woman. Please do agree with the pretty part. Hehe.

My dad is a very quiet man. He didn't talk much. He likes to listen more rather than be the one who talks. When doing work, you'll not hear anything from him. And so when there's any "issues" that happen in the house, mom would be the noisy one. My dad would just keep calm and wait until everything settled down. He would then approach us, talk to us personally and ask first what' s the problem. He'll come with a solution and a bit of advice so that we will not repeat the same mistake again in the future. Never did he screamed at us even once in my 21 years of life. Mom did though. Haha.

Dad is a very shy man. Hehe. That' s where I get that "malu - malu kucing" part of me from. So that's why on the day of graduation in MRSM, when I was asked to bring along one of my parent on the stage to receive a special award called anugerah sahsiah pelajar terpuji (funny. Yea I know I shouldn't get that. Haha. ) , I bring my dad along. Just you imagine how surprised he is.

Why daddy's girl?

My dad used to work in Singapore once. At that time, I was in my primary school. So every night, after calling him I would cry. I only stop when I sleep. So after that mom only decided to call him once a week. Haha.

If it' s my dad, ask everything that you want as long as he can buy it, he'll give you. You name it, everything he'll give us. From a barbie school bag till the handphone. Ermmmm, exclude car or house. He said that I have to work and buy myself the car and house so that I'll appreciate my own properties more. But rarely he'll decline our request.

That's my dad. To me, he is special in his own way. And I love him with all my heart.

Life is trying to teach you something

Hello there! Sorry for the long wait. So, here you go.  Here come an urgent story after a reflection made few weeks ago. I just felt the urge and the need for me to write and share this. As you know, I have been working in a pharmacy for quite sometimes now. It has been around 4 months I guess. Though definitely, I am extremely tired and I got no time to pamper myself, it gave me priceless experience. It’s a place that taught me to appreciate people, trust (this one I’ve got some issue with it too. Trust is basically not easy. It’s build over time so work hard to gain it) and respect people no matter who they are and their social status or educational background.  Initially, it feels like there’s nothing I can gain from working there. Not that I believe in all those supplements can help with diseases. These days, when I felt like I was doing a thing without having a benefit, I would start to do my own reflection. It was like a homework to me. Thank you to that one...

What's new?

How ’s me? Life has been great so far Alhamdulillah. Indeed, when you let go of the painful things that you ’ve been holding on for so long, you’ll be at peace and you’ll be happy. Being dependent on a person is not good, you’ll feel lost once they are away. “What’s meant for you will reach you even if it’s beneath two mountains. What isn’t won’t reach you even if it’s between your two lips.” And so these words heal. Always. Anyway, Let’s start. I have been occupying my holidays doing a few things at once right now. It all started as a volunteer with the Sarawak Children Cancer Society (SCCS) at the hospital. There, I knew a few doctors and pharmacists. These doctors enjoyed dragging me around in their rounds and clinics but I don’t really haha. So, these doctors has got a lot of on hold project for the community that they wanted to arrange but they ain’t got no time for that. Thus, they asked me to arrange it for them. This year, it was about the health fair project 2...

It's for us!

Before I start here, I would like to say I am sorry, that I am not being racist here. No intention like that at all. So here I am sharing with you guys my two cents regarding my childhood and maybe you have had similar childhood experience too. I admit that to be honest, I was raised by parents who would expect the best out of me behind their, “ I don’t mind” words. How do I know? I analyzed, observed and listened. With that, I understand what they wanted actually. Most of my family ( I mean huge family including cousins, aunties and uncle) were placed in a chinese school even from preschool years. Our parents believed that the chinese school has the best education system that of all can offer. Most of my cousins and relatives were able to complete their chinese education until high school except for me. I am an exclusion, I couldn’t fit and survive even during my preschool years. When I was in my psychiatry posting, I remembered that there was a young boy presented with d...
