Birthday Happiness

Today is Tuesday. It is the very next day of my birthday. Just wanna update on the events of my birthday 2010.

Sunday (10 JAN 2010)
Morning : eat breakfast and go tesco to buy my cabinet. I chose the one with the lowest price.
: very happy that they bought the cabinet for me
: (without my knowledge, they went to buy cake)
Afternoon: thinking of setting up the cabinet myself as I was very happy they bought the cabinet for me, didn't want to trouble them to do it for me
: but, they took it back from me because they wanted to signature on the board, so I gave them back
Evening : deep in my heart, thinking of something special would happen but on the other hand, felt that nothing special would happen because everyone was busy
Night : I fell asleep because I was very tired
: midnight, they got into my room with a cheese cake
: I was surprised and even more surprised and happy when I saw the cabinet was completely setup with designs and signature
: I was wordless and could only said thank you
: I made my wishes but it was in a rush so I could only wished that all my wishes came true
: talked and joked through the night and dispersed at 2am
: very happy and very happy
: I was more surprised when my sis, in Japan message me when the clock struck midnight
: She really stayed up just to greet me, very touched and happy
: although, I didn't got much birthday sms but I was happy with the few sms I got because I came from the people I loved and care

Monday (11 JAN 2010)
Morning : my birthday
: I got a morning call from mom. I was very happy. We talked and I am really overwhelmed to hear from her because I didn't expect she would call so early.
: I got another morning call from my sis, in Japan. I was surprised and talked non stop. I was very, very overwhelmed and happy. I think she was also happy that we could talk like that which mean talking anything. It was because of the slow wireless and we are far away from each other that we could not talk like that.
: I was really happy to hear from both of the people I loved. I was awaiting the sms from my bro but it never came. Maybe he was busy and didn't recorded my birthday into his phone.
: I had a nice tutorial and short cases with doctor and I got greetings from my group mates
Evening : I got surprised that my groupmate asked the other group mates to go for my birthday dinner making me felt nervous because I scared I missed someone
: At first, I thought only few of us, close friends went out for a simple dinner but in the end, someone backout and unexpected people joined.
: We went to eat seafood ( my favourite) but maybe I was not good in choosing the food, I think majority were not full and the dinner was not cheap also. But at least, we had fun.
: Sometime, I wanted to order something else but I scared it didn't suit their taste, so it was hard for me to make decision.
: Next time, I must order something more practical...
: Later we went for ice-cream at Mc Donald. We had a nice talk then we departed back to hostel.

In summary, I had a nice day. I am really happy especially whenever I see the cabinet. It make my place more spacey and organized.
I really like my 23rd birthday. Thank you everyone that contributed to my happiness on my special day...
I received a lot of unexpected greetings in my facebook also. Thank you everyone...

Pre Birthday Blues...

Today is Sunday. I got lost of the time. I thought today is my birthday. Therefore I awaited for surprise birthday celebration yesterday night but when the time passed midnight, there was nothing. No birthday cake, no birthday card or anything. Then I thought they must combine everything to Monday evening where we will go out to eat dinner. It will be a seafood dinner. This morning when I woke up, I was waiting for birthday greeting sms. There was none. My handphone was silent and there was no messages. Then I thought to myself, my social circle must be very small and I must don't have much friends. I must be too cool and seldom greet people. I was sad but at the same time, my heart was calm and just like myself in any Sunday morning.
Then, when I looked into my handphone, I realised that it is only 10 Jan. I rechecked the date with other calender. It was my mistake. My birthday should be tomorrow. Haihz... But I still think that I should not expect to much because everyone is very busy with their own things. So I am very happy with the gift, a cabinet, that they presented me. They brought me to tesco and bought a cabinet. I am not lacking of anything but I wanted a cabinet to keep my books and food. It will make my place look more organised. Thank you, gals... I am also happy because this morning we went to eat breakfast. I like the dim sum but not really can appreciate the chocolate and 'jin sha' bao which is their famous. Really love you all gals... I am glad I have friends like them...

Today is Friday. Now is early morning 7.05 am. It is raining heavily outside. I don't know why I wake up so early today. When I was awoke, I couldn't fall back sleep. It might be due to the cup of coffee I drank yesterday evening and it made be so restless. I had difficulty to fall asleep yesterday night. Maybe I should drink my coffee earlier.
Yesterday evening, I met with a Chinese, 50 years old, male patient who had polio myelitis and now, he is paralysed due to spinal cord injury. He is a nice person and has a quite sympathetic background but I regretted that why I didn't do his central nervous system physical examination. It is because when I introduced him to my friend who needed a CNS case, they did this examination and the reflexes were very brisk. I thought of doing it this morning but it is raining heavily now. In addition, I promised the patient to visit him this morning.
I know weather is not a problem. During raining days, I can carry an umbrella but I don't know why I planned to do my laundry instead. If the rain stops, I might go but if it doesn't, I will just do my laundry and do so reading. Maybe I will go tomorrow morning. I really regret for not doing his examination. This make me to feel guilty that I am not practicing my physical examination lately. I must really catch up quickly. case summary, presentation, long cases...
