I'm baack.

Pheeww.

It has been a very busy year! And, yes it's been a good while since I last visited this blog :s There were a few times in the past few months where I have at least planned to write something here but never actually did so. Hehe, blame it on the busyness!

So, what has happened to me since I last wrote? Loads! Here's a recap.

June: Went traveling around Europe with the family.
July: Went to Miri for Nadiya's wedding. Spent time mostly in KB doing electives at USM and frequenting KB Mall/Tesco. OMG, Kota Bharu ada Tesco OK! (How sad is that?)
August: Had 4 (four) wedding receptions! 4 different make-up artists, 6 different wedding dresses, smiled endlessly for >5 hours on end, posed for like 50 million pictures and...had loads of nice food. Hehe. Who says the bride and groom don't eat at their wedding? :P Tbh, I had more to eat than the significant other according to my mom's observations.

I was supposed to actually try lose some weight before the kenduri's but erm, Kelantanese food just got to me. I mean, having nasi berlauk/nasi kerabu/laksam etc for breakfast, more nasi for lunch and more for dinner is hardly the correct diet for losing weight. I gained more than I lost, hihi. At least the aerobics exercise video I bought went to err, good use, I think. I managed to squeeze myself in the dresses all the same.

/sigh I miss all the food back home :(

Spending the first few days of Ramadan at home was really nice. It's been 4 years since I last spent Ramadan in Malaysia. The hunger is all the same but the food for iftaar is just... whee! Nothing beats spending time with the family :)

September: Reluctantly returned to rainy Galway to finish off the last leg of the marathon. Why does time fly when you're having so much fun :(

Was in Sligo for a surgical rotation. It was, dramahtic! The hospital attachment itself was nice, interns were very helpful etc but the drama part of it came in the form of a housemate from hell! All my references to the previous HFH I had pales in comparison to this guy!

But, alas, I have to get stuff ready for dinner and do the studying I was supposed to do this morning. Err. Hehe.

More updates soon!
