Gluttony?


The effort of spending hours googling for food reviews of several restaurants.

The urge to visit so many restaurants, knowing they will cost you a bomb cumulatively.

The irresistible desire to sample most, if not all the well-known hawker food/restaurants in Penang.

The willingness to forgo calorie-counting after practicing it for such a long time, effectively.

Passion for food vs gluttony? I'm not so sure anymore.

I'm still busy

I haven't been writing for so long till I don't know how to write a decent piece of blog post.

So many things have happened since my last post, almost each of them warrant a blog post of their own.

However, I am too occupied with other stuff, I don't have time for blogging. Yea I know it's holiday, but still, they are so many changes in my life for the past months, and more changes to come, and I need time to deal with them.

In case you wonder, below are what have happened so far:

1. I passed the professional exam! Finally the 5-year sort-of-thrilling ride as a medical student has ended. Another phase of life will begin a few months later, where I will work as a house officer.

2. I spend the last night in UKMMC doing journal correction with doctors, from 3pm to guess what, 12.30 am!! A very tiring day indeed. Hopefully it is worth the effort.

3. I owned a car. Yea, a Perodua Myvi. Been busy optimizing my understanding towards the car, the functions, the parts, the maintenance etc

4. I went to bangkok with my besties. Yea. I traveled by air for the first time in my life =.=. And the trip to bangkok was a mix of awesomeness and awfulness, but mostly awesomeness. Will blog extensively bout the trip, much later.

5. I got myself a job in KL International Book Fair, again. Yes, I'm in serious need of some money. Partly to cover my expenses in Bangkok trip, and also because I intend to buy a new phone. And a speaker. And a mp3 player. And an external hard drive LOL. Anyway, the 1st item will be a new phone.

6. I am busy searching for places for nice food in Penang. Yea, another Penang Food Trip is on. Highly anticipating indeed.

7. I realized I am still the same old me, easily provoked. Well I'm not gonna elaborate on this, but I will certainly reflect on this ill temper of mine. I can be very nice at times, and very obnoxious + rather intimidating when provoked.

8. I watched Source Code today. I haven't watched such a good movie in cinema for quite a long time, since I last watched Inception. Not as intricate as Inception, but certainly a very nice, engaging watch. A movie that makes you think, wonder, laugh, weep, cringe and reflect. Worth a review post on it's own, also much later =)

See. So many things to write about. Life is too exciting to allow me to spend time blogging, for the time being. Nevertheless, I will find time to blog about the above events, and also the weight loss secret I promised you months ago =).

Fun week ahead. Ciao.

Nelly is back


After weeks of M.I.A, I'm back!
.
The few days before Clinical Exam almost pushed me to the brim of psychosis. Argh, the fear of the uncertainties, I really don't want to relive it.
.
Now, I have gladly recovered from the physical and mental torture. Gonna rest my mind really well. Nourish my body with good Penang food. Get more than enough sleep. Watch movies non-stop. Continue exploring music. 
.
More great days ahead yo!

Contrast

People used to call me fat. Now they always comment that I looked too thin (despite my normal BMI).
.
Ah, how I love the NOW vs THEN contrast. Don't worry though, I won't go as far as being cachexic just to enjoy the moment. In fact, I intend to gain some healthy weight (in the form of lean muscle instead of fat).
.
After pro exam, which is 1 month later, I promise I will blog about how I lost the excessive weight. Nothing fanciful, just some practical methods, requiring some perseverance and patience.
.
Get ready, y'all who eager to shed some pounds.

Optimism

One minute you are fine, the next minute you have a heart attack/ get involved in a fatal accident/ are diagnosed with an incurable cancer.
.
Life is too short for pessimism, sorrow and worries. I have always realized that, but I can't put that realization into practice. A recent sudden news of my lecturer being diagnosed with cancer kinda stunned me. 
.
It's time to see and embrace things with more optimism. After all, we are tiny and insignificant in this universe, why sweat over small stuff? Live life to the fullest.
.
Come what may, Nelson, come what may.
.
p.s. am I psyching myself coz pro exam is around the corner? =.=
