News updates

Salam and ola folks!

It has been awhile heh? Right now I am at my 4th last stations before I'll finish my clinicals. Do you read that!! Another 4 stations, and I will graduate! Graduate dude, graduaaaattteeeee!

How time flies they kept on saying, oh how true is that!

I remember how I wish to finish med school fast and come back to Malaysia as soon as possible. But as the days past, you've grown fond to the people around you, to the lifestyle and culture you're slowly accustomed to, to the comfort zone you build unnoticed within that 5 years.

So naturally the thought of going back to your so called "birth home" suddenly scares the hell out of you. I know for a fact, that everytime I come back to Malaysia during my holidays, I'll eventually start to miss Yogyakarta, An irony it is, since when I'm in Yogya, I kept longing for Malaysia. I shall call my behaviour "rindu undecided". Heh!

But one thing sure, part of this insecurities contributes from how unsure I am about my competency as a doctor back home. The thought of senior doctors being mean, impatient and generalize you as incompetent just because you're an Indonesian graduates, seriously taunt me. But hey! Keep myself positive I shall! As Hema often says, you can't be good in something overnight. You need your failures and mistakes first.

Anyway, enough with the insecurities, and move on with the news updates!

First and foremost, there is a new addition in my family!

Hanan binti Mohd Najib

Semua cucu Mak Tok: Zulaikha, Husna dan Hanan
Meet my 3rd niece, Hanan binti Mohd. Najib! Or according to Mohd. Akhir Clan registration number, the lucky number 90. In fact, my 2 other cousins, gave birth to their children around the same month with my sister. So we, keluarga Tok Wan Mat Akhir are really proud to have an addition 3 beautiful babies into our big family *big big grin*

Then, news from my abang poyot. It seems that year 2012 brings a lot of "spotlight" to him. He was in Malaysia Hari Ini and News Strait Times promoting Anugerah Pekomik 2012, and of course promoting the Malaysia comic scenes to the Malaysians.

As some may know, I am a big supporter of my abang poyot (even though I'm not a fan of his drawings. Hihi. Sorry bang! Aisyah lagi suka Adijin nye drawings). But knowing that he is working hard, struggling to something that most Malaysians doesn't acknowledge much (comic what?) but still, with that satisfactory smile? Hey, how many of us can happily say they are chasing their dreams huh? So yeah, for me that's courageous.

As for me, Coas life has been good. There are some ups and downs, tears shed, anger unleashed, jealousy evokes, but I take that as some emotions exercise. Heh! My groupmates on the other hand, has been fun to work with throughout this bittersweet journey (Ok, maybe just for now. Haha).

Other than that, I am happily enjoying my cooking side.

So till then,
Cheers! :)
