Worrying worrying worrying...

9 months of holiday, isn't exactly the best thing to happen in your life. As a friend once said, "Human beings will always wish for something that they don't have." Earlier on in my life, I was impatiently waiting for the holidays to begin.. and now that i am at it, I just want it to end already! Med school, let's just start! All my pals are already onto their degrees and such, and here I am, slumbering over nothing..

But of course I did fill my time during the past few months lah.. 

Currently, I am a volunteer in NASAM (National Stroke Association of Malaysia).. sounds cool rite, but nahh.. its just a small stroke center just the edge of Bukit Baru. I met Sundari and Azian there (physiotherapists) , they are the coolest, whackiest bunch of big sisters I will ever meet. Pictures would be uploaded soon..  
So what do i do there? For the first month, Sebastian and myself, were involved in aiding the patients' physiotherapy sessions. Subsequent months, we were given a HUGE assignment, and I really mean huge, from Mr. Jeff (The center's admin): Due to the lack of volunteers, WE were given the honour to organize a state-level marathon. Great stuff? not really, im not getting paid or anything, but, oh well, its voluntary rite? 

So after weeks and weeks of discussion, letter typing, searching for sponsors, were all set to organize it on the 28th of October. I was all hyped up till i received the news; Ill be going to Paris till the 29TH. Argh, after all the planning done and all the petrol wasted, you telling me i cant go? Oh well, since the plane tickets' were booked and paid for, I have nothing to say or go against, but to leave some of the duties to the others involved, my apologies comrades..

Other than that my whole life has been revolved around Basketball, Badminton and some swimming, okay, it was only once.. however, after learning that it will help straighten my spine, (YES, I have slight scoliosis) I promised i'm all for hardcore swimming... IF im not too lazy =D...

What else but my constant worrying? Lately, I've been worried about EVERYTHING education-wise.
I was worried that due to the over excessive amounts of doctors by the time i graduate (estimately 20000), I would never get a job.. But as a wise old Doctor once said, "Take things one step at a time, you wouldnt know what the future holds, anything can happen" I cant help but agree to those cliche words. Its true, its pointless to keep thinking over and over about the things that may not happen at all. In my heart, " Iin my heart I said, " i'll go through it, no matter what, with God's grace, I'll just follow whatever path He gives me"

So worry less.. and live the present.. no point worrying, just go with the flow.. thats all guys.. take care
