[Mood Status/ feeling perky.. hehehe sorry, this blog was written few weeks ago.. i was too lazy to save it..]

Selamat Hari Raya Aidul Adha December 20th
i know.. i know.. its kinda a bit late.. i was busy in those days.. socially.. work-related.. but mostly with

i
woke-up in the early hours of that day.. and it hit me.. for the first
time in 13 years, i was going to celebrate both my Raya(s) with someone
who i care the most.. i have been living alone away from my parents
since the age of 16 years old.. in two different continents..

sure.. i did celebrate Raya(s) with my uncles and cousins.. but it felt
like being a guest at their homes intruding into their homes.. but the
Raya(s) of 2007.. i belonged to someone..

for the first time,
i was not obsessing about meeting her.. details.. you know, putting
plans and plans to impress her.. i just took it easy, and let things
fall into its place naturally..

hehehe.. i guess i grew too comfortable with my dearest Abby.. that i was not worried or awkward as always when i see her..

she belongs to me and i belonged to her.. and we both knew that..

Banjir!! November 20th - Decemeber 15th
floods..
since November.. Kuala Krai and the entire Kelantan state faced flood
alerts.. and i was on oncall that night, when a female voice announced
through the Hospital’s PA system.. "Water levels are at emergency
levels.. all leaves are off.. the main roads got flooded..".. even from
the cafeteria of our hospital, i can see the main road that connects
our hospital to the rest of Malaysia got flooded..

the main road to Kuala Krai downtown.. flooded!!

some
of my colleagues had report to work on boats, train and 4 wheelers.. as
my emergency department, transformed into Crisis Mobilization Center..

the next 3 pictures are actually in Kota Bharu district.. just 5 km away from my house..

i think there was 8 fatality in Kelantan alone for the first 2days due
to floods.. but the news didn’t highlight the 7 fatality as a family
car crashed into ditch, near Gua Musang due to floods..

this is the water from the small Sungai Durian river.. a very familiar
scene on my daily route to work for every day for the past 4 weeks..

i have expected the admissions would be less during these times, but i
think it has doubled.. some weird cases!!.. i got 3 scorpion stings in
one day alone, 2 crash from the international 4×4 challenge off-road
competition who all got stranded for almost 3 days as the entire cliff
collapsed beneath them..

HKK Hospital Kuala Krai is a referral (and occasionally referring) specialist hospital.. and to a draw a dark picture how stressful it is.. imagine Kelantan state
divided into 3 upper, middle and lower third.. the upper third covered
by HRPZII and HUSM.. also KBMC and Perdana hospitals.. while we receive
the 2/3 of Kelantan.. anything lower than Machang, including hospital
Machang.. and sometimes from Besut -Terengganu-.. and anything urgent
that not on labour.. goes to the emergency department where i am
stationed..

Thailand
i
went back to Thailand for business.. and i have seen some great
progress in my country.. the recent elections filled the city with
colours and politicians wanna be..

but family come first..

my uncles Pngh Din and Ayah Mat and my cousins -Phattani-

my cousin Suhaimi’s first child.. i meet her for the first time.. i
just wish i have a better memory to remember her name.. it starts with
"W" though.. sigh..

now..
here is something cool.. cars in Thailand is going hybrid.. this is a
picture of my uncle’s car.. 1994 Honda Civic -the same model of my car-
is getting gas-ed up!!

no kidding!! the shop is actually a gas station.. the natural gas goes into a small pump.. and directly into the cars..

the upgrade to natural gas and hybrid engines costs few hundreds of dollars.. but until Malaysia where i work have these kind of shops.. i am sticking with the regular heart.. but i do need new car-plate..

Sylvia is getting her new car plate number..

Merry Christmas December 25-26th
i am on the oncalls.. i am on duty.. and surprise surprise.. the workload tripled during the holiday..

my
last oncall is on the December 31st.. i will be celebrating my new year
at the hospital with my friends.. so drive safely.. and always keep
your loved ones at mind..

take care ya’all and Happy new year.. and happy holidays..

peace>:-)
