Hopelessly Addicted

This post of mine is all about my recent addiction.

#1: KUACI / Sunflower Seeds

Once pop you can't stop, best taken with chinese tea and watching a movie, next thing you know, you wake up with a jaw pain :(

# 2: Fruits

Be it watermelon, grapes, apples etc. I'm a fruit bat for the time being :)

A rather unique way of presenting a watermelon. " Watermelon cake", presented by Desmond's mom. One word - CREATIVE

Also, my all time favourite grapes with wine = 2 huge bags sitting in the fridge :)

# 3: Wine and Cheese

Wine and cheese has always been my favourite and recently... been having it almost every single day ( my staple diet for the time being )

One of my wine and Cheese session at Harrods: Cheddar Cheese, Smoked Cheese, Brie Cheese, Blue Cheese and Camembert Cheese with grapes and Rosemary Crackers :) Served with Chilean Merlot Wine.... Utterly heavenly!

Too bad it wasn't served with Caviar and smoked Salmon :(

# 4: Collecting Stickers

Sticker collecting has been a craze these days. These include:

Guardian sticker collecting: One sticker for every RM15 spent

After 40 stickers, you get 1 big head plush for free...

Till date...I've only gotten the elephant :(

Another sticker collecting craze would be from Cold Storage

for every RM 30 spent you get a sticker

And then according to the number of stickers you get, you get to redeem this Italian designed glassware FOR FREE!!!!!

I'm almost there!!!!

Guess I haven't been updating my blog in AGES. Too busy with my work I suppose.

Emotions

Fridays have always been quite the same for me... so far...on a weekly basis:

Morning- work

Afternoon - relax

Night- PARTY!

:)

After 3-4 hours of tedious research work at Silver Jubilee Rehab centre, Dr Irene, Dr Eow, Desmond and I went to Sire Museum for lunch.

Note: Dr Eow examined me for my medicine long case during my finals *faint* I could still remember clearly how she got me gagged with her very last question about platelet transfusion. Thank god I still managed to get Honours for Medicine!

Desmond, me, Dr Irene and Dr Eow

Anyway, I am all stressed out and tired.... hence this post would consist more of pictures than words..

After lunch, I was greeted by another long-awaited parcel at home :)

Snoopy Alarm Clock

Went karaoke-ing for Lorraine and Sharon's post assessment destressing session at Red Box

Jai Ho!

#1: Gonna receive my very first Paycheck soon! :D

#2: Another parcel arrived!

My very first Snoopy Passport Holder! :)

I'm SO on Cloud 9 :)

Alright, not as though I have never gotten grants for my other research and salary for being a substitute teacher previously....but still... Woohoo! Don't really feel like a leech anymore!

Patron Tequila

To start off, meet the Principle Investigator (aka Boss) of the research I have been working on - Dr Irene, Clinical Specialist of Neurology Department, Penang General Hospital

This picture was taken during the Stroke Ward Rounds at the Silver Jubilee Rehabilitation Centre, a place where post-stroke patients undergo rehabilitation to regain back as much body function as possible.

The whole afternoon was spent at the rehabilitation centre to gather information for the Video on " Stroke" Desmond which is working on. For that purpose, we interviewed the patients, staff members, and also, took quite a number of pictures and videos of how the rehabilitation centre works.

***********************************************************

That night, 4 of us ( Desmond, me, Lorraine and Sharon ) had a blast at QE2 in conjunction with Halloween night.

So for the night... we morphed into...

Sharon the Witch, Mira the Fairy and Lorraine the Cow-girl :)

Lorraine's got STYLE! YeeHa!

Some Penang Medical College students

Gorgeous Sharon - waiting to bewitch her preys *wink*

....And we danced!!....

.....And we had lots of fun!!!

What's next? Karaoke? Anyone? :)

Oh, and before that, my precious parcel arrived the next morning ...

Snoopy earrings! :)

Paparazzi

Life's been difficult for the past 10 days....there were tears of joy and tears of sorrow.... nevertheless... here are some updates...

Recently Dextor has been having some mite problems...so we had to take her to the vet for injections on a weekly basis...

After taking Dextor to the vet...we went shopping for halloween costumes..

Heh, just a preview :P .... or maybe not? Hm.

After shopping, we watched "Where got ghost"

So-called Homedy ( Horror plus comedy ).

**** ***** **** ***** ************** ************* **************

Recently there's a German Food promotion at "The View" Restaurant, Equatorial Hotel.... and so we decided to give it a try...

The food was good. We ordered Venison and it was splendid... along with wine and oysters.

Desmond was high on wine, venison and oysters...

" Best venison I have ever tasted, I don't feel like going to 32 mansion anymore" - Desmond

A view of the restaurant.

6:30am now. Nights/morning! Heading to bed now Zzzzzz....zzz...

Thank you so much for listening/reading. I am sure tomorrow will be a better day. Cheers!

Back to work. Stress stress.

P/S: I know it was random but please do pardon me for this one.

Get Your Freak On

I HAVE been contemplating all these while whether or not to join the Slurpeelicious Contest and finally decided... either due to insanity or impulsivity ... to head out to the nearest 7 Eleven shop to get slurpees for the photo shoot out.

And thanks to this insanity/impulsivity of mine.... I went out in my nightie... lucky for me it is just the bottom piece but still... argh *trichotillomaniac* !

Cute lil' snoopy sticker on my right thigh... merely a cut underneath it...

And boy do I notice how long my hair is... could seriously use it as toilet paper... okay cut the crap.. a lil' too vulgar

See the shiny black shorts with laces? My nightie T_T

Note: Totally love this nightie from Secret Possessions :) Given by Desmond's mom who bought it all the way from UK....say...one year ago? Comfortable indeed!

And so, despite that 30 minutes of utter shame outdoors, we managed to get 6 cups of slurpees :P

And started our camwhoring session
