Fantasy

Sometimes I wish I can sing well. Really well. Being able to perform in front of huge crowd, giving out the performance of my life, and getting the loudest applause.

I guess I can only do it in my fantasy. Not as thrilling as the reality, but at least I can feel a very small bit of gratification from it. That will do.

p.s. no, this is not another Adele-inspired blog post.

Adele - the voice of a Goddess


"Adele's voice makes me feel like I'm listening to God" - Beyonce, 2011


I know. Turning up the volume to high while using earphone is not exactly good for the ear. But I can't help it. 


Adele's voice is so amazing. Max-ing the volume to a tolerable level is one of the ways to enjoy the divine falsetto, vibrato, intonation, the dynamics of the songs and of course, the deep emotions she's conveying in her songs. The beautiful yet occasionally melancholic lines in the lyrics leave me wondering how true love is like. 


Ah, I found a Goddess.


"I don't make music for eyes. I make music for ears" - Adele, 2011

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!
