Hold On!



Sometimes you wonder, if you had hold on just a little bit longer, things might have been very different from how they are right now. But I guess, it's just not meant to be. Sigh.

Holidays, without my best friend.

Yeah, finally some much needed holidays are here! In another 5 hours, I'll be landing in Sibu to have my one week long raya holidays. After 4 weeks of intense MBBS curriculum, I seriously need my rest (though after this, it's gonna be 2++ consecutive months of much more grueling curriculum, sigh!). During this coming week, I really hope to have as much fun as I can, but it's just not possible as I have to study for the coming mid semester exam after raya holidays. T.T

Anyway, at this very moment, my best friend, Sing Kiet is on his way to US to further his studies. On Thursday night, Eric, Kuen Luen and I went to the airport to bid him farewell, as he's most probably not gonna come back in the next 3 years. Though the gathering was quite short, I think that memory will always be valuable and nostalgic in the future. We did manage to surprise him with some gifts in the form of a beanie, a card with our hearty wishes and a 2R photo of the 4 of us. They serve as early birthday gifts as well as farewell gifts to our best buddy, and I was glad he liked them. =D

Shall always be best friends!
As I have written in the card to him, me and him, we have come a long way in our friendship. From knowing him since primary 2 when I first moved to Sibu, till we graduated from Form 5 in secondary school, we were classmates for 10 years. In that period, our friendship evolved from being normal friends who fought childish fights with each other till we became best friends. In the end, that smartass got overseas offer from JPA while I could only stay local, haha!

We had our differences, we had our fights and quarrels, but I guess those are the things that strengthen our friendship even more. Now that he has left to US, guess I won't have anymore solo breakfast sessions with him in Sibu during my holidays already, too bad! I can only now wish him all the best in the States, and may our friendship never fade in the years to come. Good luck, bro!

My new smartphone!



Finally, I have gotten a new smartphone, Samsung Galaxy Nexus! I realized that I have never mentioned it, but for those of you who do not know, I lost my Nokia Xpressmusic 5310 more than a month ago in Sunway Pyramid when I went there to watch Madagascar 3. My friends and I searched all over the place in the cinema, the place we ate lunch, the car and even the washroom, but we just couldn't find it. Sigh, that phone had been with me for more than 4 years and half already, now it's gone. But the bright side is I finally have the desire to buy a new phone.


So after considering for quite a long time, I bought a Nexus. I was initially considering between Samsung Galaxy S2, S3 and Nexus. I really wanted to buy S3 at first, as it's a very recent model, but I guess the price of around 2k just put me off in the end. After much consideration, I decided that the prices of phones will surely drop in the future, so there's no point in buying the best phone out there. So with 1k++, I bought the phone above last Wednesday.


This being the first ever smartphone I ever owned, you can imagine how addictive it was for me in the past week. It's amazing how many things you can do with it, once you installed all the apps that you want. I just couldn't get my hands off it, and with all my syllabus cramming up, I was quickly behind pace in terms of my studies. So now, I'm controlling myself not to touch it too much daily, haha. Discipline! Control! >.<
