HALF-ASSED

What is a half-assed job you asked? It’s when you take 3 days to do a project you’re supposed to spend 2 weeks on. Die, SSM, die!!

If I wanted to make a bad joke, I would’ve said 3 days out of 14… ehh less than a quarter-assed job.

Sigh.

Victoria asked me an interesting question the other day. ‘Have you ever done anything crazy?’ Well, no, not really. I mean I’ve been crazy the way a girl is crazy (if you say you’ve found a girl who’s completely sane, I suggest you stick around for a bit longer. Or tap her phone). But no, nothing crazy as in crazy fun. Like performing an act at Covent Garden.

That can be fun actually.

Mmkay, I think it’s time for another hiatus. Just a quick word: I won’t be going back to Malaysia this summer. So if you guys need a place to stay in London… I suggest you pegi kacau Thurston or Kimmy =P

HIB-HIB-HIBBERT

Everytime he laughs, I will laugh.

There was a time I was sitting in Breast Clinics, and this poor woman just found out she's got cancer. She was bawling her eyes out and it was really quite heart-breaking to watch. And all I could think of was Dr. Hibbert's inappropriate laugh.

*geleng kepala*

ALL

I never believed in having it all. It wasn’t for the lack of optimism, but nothing much was very important to me. If I were to list out all the things I wanted to do or achieve, it would be a very short list (but not pathetic *wink*).

Very few things mattered to me. But it’s changing a bit since this year.

It’s not an epiphany. It's tiny moments of realization. One of which actually involves two pairs of shoes.

I’m very glad I met this registrar. We’re not very close but I do admire her very much. In the two months I’ve been here, I have not heard a single bad thing about her. Everyone loves her, everyone thinks very highly of her. She has great people skills, is very goddamn professional and always effortlessly the centre of attention. There is so much energy around her and she makes every operation looks easy (damn, I rasa macam I boleh buat lap chole je). I can largely thank her for my newfound respect for surgeons and surgery itself.

She comes to ward round in her surgical scrubs every morning; the consultant has pretty much delegated everything to her. But it’s her theatre shoes that caught my eyes. The shoes are very dark red, or maroon in colour (yes, I’m very useless with colours) but what’s more important is that it is the only pair of that shade. Very striking when you put them among the other white, black and dark blue shoes. Everyone knows they belong to her.

But every Thursday for clinics, she wears this pair of very black and shiny shoes with 3-4 inches of heels. And I do believe nothing screams feminity and power more than a pair of very beautiful high-heels.

If everyone else can do it in flat sensible shoes, all the more power to you in those gorgeous high-heels. Especially if the other pair says you’re a surgeon.

She has it all including a great marriage (and a huge rock).

Always believe you can have it all. And I do mean all.

ARGHHH

Today I will bitch about Heroes season finale and Foreman of House. You've been warned.

Okay, what is up with the awful awful season finale? My god, Peter can fly on his own! And kalau dia pengsan, the power will go away, so belasah him unconscious. Throw Mohinder at him and hope they knock their heads. But noooo, Nathan got to be the good guy at the last moment. Damn. I was hoping Nathan would become one of the villains and Peter would have to fight him. Why you American tv. You taught us violence, sex, crime, sleaze, greed etc. And now you want to confuse us with family and love and decency??

But eh, I will be waiting for season 2.

Aww, I hate Foreman now. He's absolutely the most useless of the three ducklings. Chase has grown up so much, and Cameron.. well, she's just going through a bad phase now. But Foreman has always been the one to create hostility. Ohh, he's standing up to House, just tak pernah menang je. He's looking out for himself only (it's the same with Chase but he doesn't announce it to everyone). He's becoming House and torturing patients. Way to whine, Foreman. The last time I checked my African-American guidebook, that is so not a black thing to do. And now that he's resigning, Cuddy has given him a better job offer! That is just disgusting. Nasib baik dier tak accept.

I've gone back to watching a bit of Desperate Housewives. They're picking up. Which is a bit of a pleasant surprise.
