MSU CONVO 22 - Kristalites Finally Graduating!

OFFICIALLY DR FATNIN

I am finally graduating.
I have graduated.
FINALLY.

After 6 years of blood sweat and tears,
through my lowest and highest tide, 
through my sleepless nights and my terrifying nightmares,
through my loneliest fight with my own self
and my merriest accompaniment throughout my mornings, noons, and nights.




And since I didn't managed to book a professional videographer slash photographer on my, our specially precious day, I had to do an EMERGENCY GRADUATION VIDEO.
And as tacky as the name can get, here it is.
ENJOY!

2017; ROGER AND OUT

First of all - okay, chill.
The fact that I'm posting this in 2018 itself is absurd, but hey, c'mon. I want to do these trendy 2017 Throwbacks that those cool and popular kids do - too. Cut me some slack will ya?

Okay so let's see. What do we have - I HAVE, throughout being in 2017?
________________________________________
JANUARY

I was a Final Year Medical Student - started January with Obstetric & Gynecology
and since then struggled to stay alive.


FEBRUARY
Somewhere in February I lost my baby cat Tuah to Parvo Virus
and remember of being too depressed too even talk.

Then this is the month where we first had Mr Ddakgalbi together as Weh Nak After
(and got freakishly hungry even after finishing the large amount of spicy stir fry spicy chicken)

and Me, Mawad and Azel managed to buy a second hand printer wrapped in red pasar malam plastic for only RM20.
Say what?

MARCH
There's a day where me and Azel had a lucky day of having to observe two surgical operations in only 1 hour. But just when we thought we're time conserving, instead we still had to wait for Mawad and Farah for them to finish theirs. So hence, picnic in the hospital.
Oh, in March was our first trip to GM Klang together - and I can tell you guys that please don't go there with money inside your pockets please. Lessons learned.
Not to forget, class Sushi session during SUSHI BONANZA!


APRIL
 I SWEAR I CAN NEVER FORGET THIS EVENT. SEMINAR 8 AND CP 6 INSTEAD OF SEMINAR 6 AND CP 8.
The first time ever, four of us have overlooked this confusing mistake which had unable us to present our Case Presentations to doctor in class.
And just when we thought all of us are screwed and prepped ourselves with scoldings - our doctor instead consoled us and ensured that everything is okay and make sure all of us don't cry.
Ngaw!

MAY
I was in a phase of depression (and was so lucky to be helped by my two other BG's for that)
So this is when we had every chance to go home and not go for ward work in Klang Hospital but i don't know what happened
that I literally dragged these two BGs and diligently go for Orthopedic rounds.
And that's when we met a Multi Disclipinary Specialists who was more than welcome to teach us.
Blessed!

JUNE
By June, we're already in Medical ward. This was taken unaware by everyone else while we patiently waiting for Dr Thair's presence during Friday evening ward rounds.
Medical in Sungai Buloh will never be forgotten - ever!

JULY
Nearing July 2017 is somewhat bitter for me because at this time around, we're finishing our last posting of our Final Years in Medical School.
Just when i think that I can finally get used to be living with these crazy heads - 
we were already prepared for farewell.
*cries*




AUGUST
The D-Day for all of us in Golden Phoenix. 
Our Final Professional Exam 3 before becoming a true doctor.
(ya that's, uh, that's basically our, uh, our Batch name, yes, uh, haha, haha)
I do not know if i was truly nervous about it or not but, this is the only picture I managed to took before entering that cold hall for hours.

SEPTEMBER
I MADE IT! WE MADE IT! ALL OF US PASSED OUR FINAL EXAM
and certified to be a safe doctor!

OCTOBER
NOVEMBER
DECEMBER
are basically the same because we eventually moved out of our Kristal home and separate ways.
Since then, i don't know about the other 8 girls, but my routine has just been the same.

THERE YOU HAVE IT!
ADIOS 2017!
It has been a ride!

Baru Sikit

I would really want to remember this day; especially when it's already 10 years from now.
I wanted to say
" Hey, do you still remember when you drive back home, crying after being scolded horribly during BST? (Bed Side Teaching) "
And I would really want my 10 years older self to just laugh it out and say
"Gosh those were the days. Sikit je pun. Baru sikit."

*sigh*

I know being scolded and humiliated is practically the bread and butter in being a Medical Student; especially those who were already in their final years.
And I know I shouldn't make a big deal out of it. I know i should just mug it up, and let it go. I should forget about it and make a resolution out of it.
I should be strong. I SHOULD.
I know, after all it IS my fault.
For not catching up.
For not focusing.
For being stupid.
For being me.
I'm sorry.

That moment, that very moment -  it hit me. This is hard.
The path that I'm taking right now - is hard. And this is not even the beginning of it.
Yet. Tuhan bagi rasa sikit je. Test sikit je.

Baru sikit.
Be strong Nin.

I accidentally took a ride on a Time Machine

What just happened?
Like seriously ?
My previous post was about me visiting Myeongdong in 2014 and all of a sudden -
it's already August 2016.

WILL YA LOOK AT THAT.
JUST HOW THE TIME FLIES.

But, really?
Does time ACTUALLY flies? I mean, like literally, FLY?

Does time even have wings to fly?
How do you know time is actually a creature - who flies?
And how do you even know that 'Time' IS EVEN a creature?
Why wouldn't it be something that's an Abstract, instead of
a creature slash human slash animal slash mythical being that flies?
And even if 'Time' is a definite CREATURE; who flies; would it be a man or a woman?
A 'He' or a 'She' ?
(Well if you recently watched Alice Through The Looking Glass - then 'Time' is a 'He') LOL

Let's just say that English (itself) are sometimes (or maybe all the time) Interestingly Crazy.
or
Let's just say that I'm actually trying to distract the fact that I've been busy for the past
days slash months slash years
for not updating this page by debating about the existence of Time as a creature that love to fly away.

Who knows ?
Maybe BOTH.
_________________________________________________________

I'm currently, gladly, happily, excitedly and finally
in my FINAL YEAR OF MEDICAL SCHOOL.
Not that I'm bragging about it tho
(honestly there's nothing to brag about it because it as actually double the scare of me in nearing the real world of becoming a true doctor) *YIKES*

I just hope that some of you that's reading this piece might as well pray for me- and my friends;
to pray for our final journey to be ease smoothly (obviously is going to be NOT)
and for us to be prepped with strength, courage and patience to keep holding on till the last game.
Amin Ya Rabbalalamin.





This might as well be my first and last post EVER.
*CUE THE SAD SONG*
Nahhhhh kidding.

MY TRIP TO SEOUL KOREA 2014 - DAY 2 - DMZ Tour

Anyeonghaseyo guys~
Sorry for the very-late-post.
Life as a first timer in Clinical Years of Medical School turned out to be very .  .  . Challenging.
And also tiring.

But that doesn't mean I stopped writing posts about my trip to Korea.
How can I?
Until now, I've been dreaming of being back there, enjoying my quiet walk along the Chungmuro streets.
*cries*

And here's my Day 2 in Korea used to be.
_______________________________________________

DMZ TOUR

So yeah, basically DMZ Tour or as known as (Demilitarized Zone) Tour is actually a set of tourist hot spot attractions,
where you got to listen to a lot more of Korean history between the feud of North and South Korea.
And the best part was, you can actually go to the borderline and see the North's soldier ushering you back with a huge telescope. *creepyyyyy*

As far as I can remember, my DMZ Tour goes for the whooooole day.

IMJINGAK RESORT
This place is actually a resort, build for the sole purpose of those who are separated from their families in North, so they could perform all the ancestral rituals during festivals, here
- cause, believe it or not, this is the nearest they could get to.
Well you can't actually just go to the North's borderline and say
"Hey, I'm just dropping by to say hi to my families"
As I was told, the long feud between these two countries was never resolve to any agreements and until now, they do not allow any occasional entry-and-exit.

THE THIRD TUNNEL
We have been warned. As our tour guide said that anybody who had any heart problem should stay away from coming into the Third Tunnel as it was actually long long long long way down under the ground.

Iylia and me was too excited to even hear that - unfortunately.
We got back safely after huffing and puffing our way climbing back to the ground - eyes half rolled upwards, our breaths were scorching for Oxygen, as we cried for this torture to come to an end, though.
The Oxygen down there was seriously - limited. Not to mention very cold.
It turns out that North had been building secret underground passageways in order to get access into the South and the preserved one was The Third Tunnel.
As far as the soldiers had came across all this while were, 5 secret tunnels altogether. And the recent one was discovered also this year. *grit teeth*
Guess the feud will not ease any time from now, right?

THE OBSERVATORY 
A typical observatory tower for everyone to view a glimpse of North's main city. That's all.
I was kindda hungry at that time. So I was fidgeting here and there, caring less about the observatory thingy.

DORASAN STATION
 
A train station used to transport people from South to North. I'm not sure if it's still operating or not though. But it's pretty neat and modern-ish looking. I like anything modern.
_____________________________________________________

*SIGH*
Sorry guys. That's all I could remember of my DMZ  Tour.
Maybe because it's so historical, I got bored.
Hey, but not for the whole time though.
The scenery was beautiful 
and it was good 
to actually brain something with facts after so long right?

p/s : I still went to Myeongdong that evening even when my feet hurts after the tour *squeals*

p/p/s : and I managed to get an Oppa and took a picture with him. *squeals louder*

MY TRIP TO SEOUL KOREA 2014 - DAY 1 - Myeongdong

Bismillahhirrahmanirrahim.
Here goes.

Okay. So I finally get to go to Korea (one of my bucket list countries) and specifically it's NOT a lonely backpacking trip
but it is actually under the annual MSU IMS MEDUCATION TRIP and to say that I was very lucky,
this year's trip is to KOREA *yay*

________________________________________
BOARDING

Since our flight from KLIA2 boarding to INCHEON INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT was exactly on
8 A.M.
and our in-charge-head-lecturer Sir Nizam was afraid of everybody gathering late and stuff
and after some agreements
we headed together from MSU to KLIA2 exactly at 12 A.M. the night before.
I know.




It's hella way too early and what exactly can we do at KLIA2 during those times.
Still, we enjoyed the waiting every single second of it :)

Since this was also my first time boarding on a 7-hour-flight, I gotta admit, my back hurts a lot.
Even though I didn't sleep at all the night before (hey, can't a girl be a little excited ?) the long flight journey still made me bored to death.

ARRIVAL

We arrived at Incheon Airport around 3 P.M. and was welcomed by our Hostel Rep, Miss Sue. (Maybe that's how it's spelled)
Despite the on-board-food-issues and my welcoming-wrecked-luggage, I was still excited to arrive in Seoul after 1 hour from Incheon.

Excuse my inner fangirl moments, but just as soon as we rode the bus to Seoul,
I saw my EXO Chen's Gigantic Birthday Ad
on a passing by public bus and hyperventilated for like - a while.
*squeel*

And we arrived at our Hostel (Seoul International Youth Hostel) located just below the
Namsan Tower and exactly at the center of the city.
And as mention being at the center, I meant by having to have an actual walking distance to almost of the Seoul's Tourist Attractions.
Isn't that just what we needed ?

Since everybody was still having a jet lag from the long flight (oh please bear with me) Sir Nizam left us to rest, wash up and gather again to start our night journey to MYEONGDONGGGGGG

MYEONGDONG

I don't know if it was because of the atmosphere of that place
or the Cosmetics Haven, like e-ve-ry-where e-ve-ry-sin-gle-place
or maybe the street foods and small stalls along the streets
but Myeongdong really IS, really WAS, and will ALWAYS be my most favourite place in Seoul.

Aaaaaaand of course *clapclapclapclap* it is every fangirl's dream to be stepping into
the Biggest 2-Storey Nature Republic Shop featuring our good-looking EXO Oppas, only in Myeongdong.


But it's not just about Nature Republic alone.
There was like tons and tons and tons of other cosmetic shops and outlets in Myeongdong.

The Face Shop
Etude's House
Hollika Hollika
Skin Food
Innisfree
to a name a few though

And since all of us arrived during the week of Chuseok Festival (It's like Korean Hari Raya)
there were so many discounts
and free gifts
and promotions
and free face masks
and EXO posters with individual fans and .   .   .   .   .
*woahwoahwoah* *pleaseremaincalm* *inhaleexhale*

Sorry. It's just that, the excitement of being there, still excites me :D

And yeah, I am in no position to comment about the price tho.
I mean it was on a festival discounts - of course the stuffs there a wayyyyyy cheaper than Malaysia.
I even bought the famous Nature Republic's Aloevera Moisture and Soothing Gel for only 5000 Won each (around RM15 in Malaysia)
and a pack of six of it for 16000 Won (i think) which is only RM50 in Malaysia.
Oh, and the new Nose Pack endorsed by EXO-K was really cheap, I bought 3 of em' in one go.

Hol,
________________________________________
End of Day 1.
So basically, that was it. Our first day in Seoul Korea.
Of shopping and fangirling moments.
