~ 8th Day of Ramadhan ~
11:35:00 pm
8 days of Ramadhan have gone by...
Alhamdulillah, it went by pretty smoothly... Except that I have to keep my temper in check! Yes, it can be a real challenge at times... Especially when it comes to work... When I have to encounter unreasonable and impatient patients and relatives... And I wonder why patients are being called "
patients" in the first place when some of them, simply have no
patience!
And so, I've survived another 10 days at work without a day off... Honestly, it was a big challenge this time round... I don't see fasting as a burden (it is a compulsory thing that each able-bodied and of sound mind Muslim has to fulfill)... But I guess, it's a little different compared to other days... Having to juggle with work and school at the same time, everything is taking its toll over the days that passes by... I get tired easily... But I see this as a challenge and not something bad...
My special someone has finally started his paramedic course today... Finally, he has finally gotten in to where he wants to be... And I've realised that I've written 3 words of 'finally' in the two sentences above... *Haha*...
Although that would mean that I would get to see him lesser, but I shall see this as something for his future, his career... And all I wanna do is to stand by him, giving all the moral support that he needs... =)

My pillar, my strength... And I love you!!
And so... What have I done over the 8 days of Ramadhan?
Nothing much, really... I've been attending work, class, work, class, work, class... And the list goes on... Except for on Tuesday night where I got to meet up with my special someone for 'dinner', before he officially starts work... *Hehe*...

Our food...
According to my special someone, the only seafood that we both can agree on is the cockles!! *Hehe*... And I truly agree since there's so many types of seafood that I don't usually eat...
As for my plans till Syawal... Well, let's just keep it under wraps till the day comes!! Well, maybe my exams is exceptional... *Arrgghhh!!*

~ 1st Day of Ramadhan ~
11:31:00 pm
Alhamdulillah...
The first day of Ramadhan went by pretty smoothly... Except for a very bad headache that I had during the first part of the day, and some sleepy moments after work and during class... And despite all those, I've managed to breeze through without much difficulties... Well, probably it's because I was pretty occupied with work and all, hunger was not in my mind at all...
And this was apparently my first time breaking fast while having classes too... It does feel a little weird, given that I don't really mix around with the Malay/Muslims in the lecture group... But my non-Muslim friends were equally understanding too, so it doesn't really matter...
The downside, however, I will get to break fast at home only on Sunday... That's like the 4th day of Ramadhan... And I wouldn't be able to break fast at home at all for the whole of next week... All thanks to my work and school... Oh well...

~ Updates ~
12:46:00 am
So... It's been awhile since I've last updated my blog... Honestly, I have kinda lost the momentum in blogging...
Don't ask me why...
Each time when I wanna type in an entry, I would just stare blankly into the empty posting page and I would just end up clicking on the 'X' box at the corner of the page... Even when there were so many events revolving around in my life, my mood to blog would just disappear upon reaching this page...
Anyway, just to fill in things, I have been doing well and fine...
My night shift just ended this morning and this round of night duty was pretty eventful...
On my first night, I had a patient who collapse and we had to do an active resuscitation... To make matters worse, I had 3 new cases who were admitted during my time...
My second night wasn't too bad but I had a patient who wasn't too well... But thankfully, she went on to live for another day...
Third night was equally bad but not too bad as compared to my first night... I had 3 new cases again!! And worse still, I had to work with a headache... And towards morning, I felt super giddy that I saw everything in the ward spinning... Thank goodness, I didn't faint then and there...
Anyway, I'll be back again... Hopefully, when I feel like it...
