AS 2010 DESCENDS, 2011 IS ANOTHER CHALLENGE

It is another year end. New resolutions will commence and the challenges in life continue. Things happened over a year period , leaving their momentum for everyone to kick-start the opening of 2011 at a different pace. "Sweet hello and sad goodbye" is a trademark to welcome the new year and as we know it, we age ourselves into another year of self-revolution. Some clueless people will keep on asking why time moves so fast without any mercy for them to correct mistakes made !
ANYWAY ... my 2011 dreams and resolutions are :
1) To start fresh in a fresh environment of the beautiful Kota Kinabalu in cardiology training for my subspeciality and expect myself to be busy than in the year of 2010 !
2) Refrain myself from getting acquinted to anyone and stay focus on my career prospect.
3) Try to appreciate people who do appreciate me.
4) To get more physically fit and lose some more weight.
5) To buy a house and own a property .



I can only manage to plan but there is always a glass or wall that i can break through in order to anticipate what 2011 will bring me...... HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL ....May 2011 be a good year for everyone..especially to those i really care :)

One of 7 Natural Wonders Of The World !


There are 7 natural wonders of the world and i finally came to one ! Elated , amazed and felt gratitude were my mixed feelings as i stepped onto this beautiful landscape...THE GRAND CANYON . It is best to get tour bus from Las Vegas or Southern California rather than to drive along the deserted roads before one finally reach this magnificent spot.

The SKYWALK which is made by high quality glass is definitely a must try . Some agoraphobics may find it a difficult obstacle but to be able to finish and walk onto the glass is a joyful moment one can ever experience !


At least before getting old, i can finish the other 6 pit-stops namely the Aurorea Borealis, Paracutin, Victoria Falls, Great Barrier Reef, Harbor of Rio De Janeiro and Mount Everest. ..ha ha ha sounds very tough but the tough gets everyone going :)

VIVA LAS VEGAS

I am still in Las Vegas, Nevada when i penned down this entry. Being labelled as the high class city of entertainment of the world, people from all world continents come for gambling, holiday, live shows and also some stripper shows. I am amazed with the set-up, cleanliness and the sky-scrapping casino hotels. I stayed in MGM Grand which turn green when the nights fall.

" The Strip " is a long main road which houses main attractions in Vegas. I love the city and to view the Roman architecture of Caesar's Palace is such a great oppurtunity. As i stroll along the lake in front of The Bellagio, i feel refresh . Such happiness never come that often and i am truly blessed. Just a bit different from the norm, people are everywhere with their funny and horror outfits for The halloween.

I will definitely be back here one day , hopefully this time i get to spend with someone that I loved...yeah just the two of us.... because the ambience of Las Vegas makes two getting closer .

Finally, i quote most popular phrase about Las Vegas ...." Whatever Happen In Vegas, Stay In Vegas !! "

Attreversiamo !!!...........from EPL !


Would you wake up from your soundless deep sleep and begin to ponder your ultimate goal of being in a relationship or in a marriage ? And soon after , u realized that , it is just another burden to keep holding on to something that clearly has become brittle. Subsequently, you have to make a wise life-changing decision that is going to alter the path of your glorious life .....



EAT, PRAY and LOVE has the answer from one's total perspective . Beautifully narrated and written both for the big screen and the novel, it showed us that sometimes we have to give up on things in order for something that long-lasting to embark in our journey of life.... so don;t afraid to lose at initial phase , who knows you may gain more in the near future...

*** Just love Julia Roberts in this movie !!!

A Peaceful Life


Life is about something peaceful with some laughter and joy to carry with. We came across the word RIP being continuously wish upon to one life departure. A peaceful life comes from a total complete package of happiness, wealth, health and people that you serenade them with love...


The pictures in this entry were taken in a landscape deemed to me very peaceful but yet, my heart palpitated and it never stop. I hope sooner or later it will stop and bring peace from within : )

Road Safety Or Fashion Savvy


I was in Ho Chin Minh in last August 2010 for a conference . This " saigon" is famous for its war remnants and people loves to shop there for the good bargain. One of the identity of this city is the countless motorbikes on the road at all times that prevents the naive tourists from crossing the road. My Vietnamese friend gave me a ride in his motorbike and it was an enjoyable experience and yet gave me palpitation too !!!.

Basically, the motorbikes here are the king of the road. Even the helmets are beautifully decorated and designed without any safety aspect . I bet all this helmets will not pass through our JPJ approval !!!....

"IMPRINT" on Someone ?

This is ME writing once again after 3 months of hiding away from this blog arena. Usual reasons applied ! he he. ..just wanna write something about ECLIPSE !

The third installment of Twillight saga is becoming more popular as the story continues to embark the rival between the vampires and the werewolves . The adaptation from Stephenie Meyer's tale leaves huge impact to movie industry.

After leaving the cinema, i just could not forget the dialogue by Jacob Black and still until today, very resistant to forget...

" When you imprint into someone, that someone is the centre of your gravity, you 'll do everything u can for that someone to be happy !" .......

Not 100% from the actual one...but the meaning is almost there....


HAVE YOU EVER IMPRINT OF SOMEONE ?????

Bali Again And Why ???


I took time off to visit Bali again recently and well, this is not the story about me but this is about a new Malaysian friend i met during my recent visit to this tropical island. He came down to Bali 4 to 5 times in a year and he knows very well the Bali landmarks and tourist location and this time , he flew for free attending a fully sponsored friend's wedding with beach theme concept. If not for this special celebration , he definitely be back to Bali at that frequent interval anyway.
I did ask him WHY BALI AGAIN ? and AGAIN ? . Aren't u feel bored ????
He replied to me with a saddened note :
" We used to walk together by the beach, holding hands and Bali was where we spent our time knowing each other closely, BAli was the place where we witnessed the beautiful sunset ever of Tanah LOt, BAli was where we smiled seeing the dolphins in Lovina, BAli was where we serenade our love in the quiet and tranquil Ubud..... and eventhough we are no longer together, being in Bali is another way of HOPE that things can reconcile between us , i can feel the presence !! "
I WAS TOUNGE-TIED , words of wisdom from a loyal person ,and before we departed after enjoying the delicious Indonesian style nasi goreng , I said to him..." there will be another person who will come and knock on your door and say helllo and open up your heart again and you just have to wait and if Bali is so special to you, keep coming back here !!"
From that time on, i know that we are going to be good buddy when we are back to Malaysia , sharing stories about life and motivating each other. Frankly speaking, i had a deja-vu that we have known each other for more than 10 years...ha ha

The Idol In Town

I bought the three albums of last year's 3 American Idol contestants debut album namely Kris Allen , Adam Lambert and Alison Iraheta but the trumphiant Kris is definitely the best among the three. He was in town recently for an autograph session in Mid Valley Megamall plus he threw a showcase for the ASTRO subscribers.. I missed to be part of the event. My friend , Clarence was at the venue and this pictures are published here by his courtesy. Thanks Clare !









He has natural talent in performing in front of the huge crowd.






I leave u all with the lyrics of his first single .

Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
How come we don't say I love you enough
Till it's too late, it's not too late
Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
We could make a feast from these crumbs
And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would've done
[Chorus]
Yeah, gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell 'em that we love 'em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying
And if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, there'll be no one on the line

Here Comes The February Again.... All STARS !!!


Here comes February , the month with the least number of days and the month that some people get little "smoochie" about love. Chinese New Year coincides with Valentine for this year. I just love to recommend this multiple love stories packed into one , studded with the A List actors. IT MUST HAVE BEEN GOOD to watch this drama on the big screen with mixed emotion because the stories make one laugh and cry.
For the one who is madly deeply in love and where some cinemas available, this is the best movie where you can book the lovely limited couple seats in GSC and enjoy the movie..
Happy CNY with Lots of Love (LOL !!!)

When I Grow Up


FACEBOOK has done wonders in reconnecting people... This is a picture taken merely 18 years ago when i were in high school. Cikgu Azizah is the first teacher i added as my FB friends and almost all of them in this down to memory lane picture are now my FB friends.

Nobody can predict what life ahead waiting for us when we grow up. Some succeded like a true champion while some missed every chances in life.

To me.,.i evolved and designed my life to be like what i want it to be.... and it is a happy moment to realize that DREAMS are not impossible to fulfill if we work it out and plan properly..sooner or later it will be OURS !!

Acoustica In My Brain With Sound In My Ear


A patient was referred to my neurology clinic by a very junior emergency doctor who had made an impression of TIA (transient ischaemic attack) involving veterobasillar insufficiency. On further questioning, he had complained of unsteady gait, seeing "double" when looking to the left and slight reduction in hearing abilities. He had lateral rectus palsy (6th cranial nerve) and he manifested left cerebellar signs. Even without an MRI scan , i already can predict this is a problem with lesion in cerebello-pontine.
I was called by a radiologist 3 days later to inform my already expected findings of this benign tumour called ACOUSTIC NEUROMA.,.. or the other name for it...VESTIBULAR SCHWANNOMA. .. A semi-urgent referrral to Penang GH for neurosurgical intervention was made then.
This tumour is associated with Neurofibromatosis Type II.
To junior doctors, be precise in history taking and physical examination to get a proper diagnosis , after all our job acquired us to do so...

Yasmin's The Very Last Offering...



Yasmin left the industry with good remarks on her creative art direction and this film is supposed to be the last one she directed before she succumbed to massive stroke. I managed to catch the sneak preview in GSC Gurney Plaza, Penang recently and yeah ... the cynical Malaysian jokes that we were all been raised up with , were everywhere through out the entire 1 1/2 hour show.



Muallaf or being called the Sabians, potrayed religious issues which every religion teaches us to be a good person but this film did not comparatively discuss the details of it. Ipoh town was Yasmin's personal favourite when it comes to movie location.


After watching the film, it seemed that this film was simply forgetable...and only 10 peoples watching it on that Sunday and to my surprise ,,, i was the only Malay...mmmm.
