Extended Weekend

A rather confusing morning when I first got up at 6. So quiet. It was Monday but it was a Public Holiday! Time for an extra hour in bed, and late start to the day!

We were still at the apartment, but with the boys schooling tomorrow, it meant that we had to do the packing already, a rather depressing exercise. We still have bare minimum at the apartment.

So, for this afternoon, we planned to see some light furniture for my study and maybe a side table or two for the TV and other stuff. Luckily, the apartment came with their built-in cabinet and a complete kitchen - although the dryer would need replacing. We just bought a TV for Idlan's room yesterday, and he seemed to be enjoying it.

The morning rounds was done. Time to get things sorted out for the rest of the day ....

Thursday Morning Stroll

After cancelling my clinics on Thursdays, practically freeing it for myself, Thursday had never been completely free. This morning, I forced myself to take some down time. I ended up having a nice breakfast at the hospital, and took a drive towards Bukit Bintang.

Checking out Low Yat, when the place was practically empty put a different spin on things. I managed to walk around without much hassle.

My main plan was to pay my credit card and mobile bills, and to check out the Surface Pro 3.

They were just been available in Malaysia, but only the wifi versions were available. There were no plans for an LTE unit to imported to this region, or whether it would ever be made by Microsoft. Should an LTE version was available, I would have no qualms but grab one. It would replace my iPad for work bo doubt. Opportunity missed by Microsoft I thought. I was sure plenty more people would be interested in the LTE version.

I spent almost a couple of hours at Low Yat before driving back to Subang. I was still full to catch lunch. Got back to Subang by 2, dis my rounds and a procedure. Then off again.

Getting a free Thursday every once in a while was definitely welcomed. Not next week though. I have a meeting in Putrajaya next Thursday afternoon. No free time....‎

Lose. Draw. Win?

Let's be honest, our draw for the start of the season had been more than generous. Swansea, followed by Sunderland last night with Burnley next. All three considered lesser team, for which dropping points would be criminal.

However, we managed to do hard work of the first couple of matches and it looked like a win against Burnley this weekend would do little to lift the mood.

Van Gaal had a record of starting slowly with his club sides. The same happened when he first took on the Barca and Bayern job. Notoriously slow start. Unfortunately, we started too well during our preseason US tour, lifting our hopes to almost unreasonable level. Time to go back to basics and support the team I guess.

Hopefully, by this time next week, we would've acquired a new number 7 in the form of Di Maria. That should at least give us the extra boost needed at the beginning of the season, and we shall push on from there.

Glory, glory Man United!

A Difficult Weekend

It had been a difficult weekend on a personal and professional level. I had been under the weather since Friday morning when I woke up with a headache and vertigo. The headache improved but not the vertigo. Took some medications and ended up being drowsy.

I then slept for about 18 hours on and off.

But the headache returned on Saturday morning. Went to sort my clinic out, but spent the whole afternoon with a patient of mine who I've been poking after for the past year.

It was tough.

I was back on call today and this morning had been hectic. Time to catch a breather and a quick lunch. Hopefully the rest of the calls would be OK. Luckily I have cancelled my clinic at Park City tomorrow morning. Therefore I could just concentrate on my admissions and my Day Care patients tomorrow.

Well, that was the idea.

The boys would also be starting school again on Tuesday. Anita would be packing this very moment, and we planned to move back to Gombak by tomorrow afternoon.

End of the holidays...‎

Stuck in the Rain

I thought of having a quick bite in between my admissions. I missed lunch earlier due to travelling and a heavy breakfast, so I thought it would be safe to just disappear for a while.

Unfortunately the heavens opened just as I was about to leave the restaurant. For the last 20 minutes, I had been stuck just 50 yards away from the Casualty with nothing but a putu seller shouting, "Putu! Putu!" every so often!

It had been sunny all weekend, so the rain would be a long one from the look of it....
