i'm home

in Ranau for my extended CNY holidays (not sure if i've submitted the leave form to the office or not). i just need a time off from work, and yeah.. i miss being home. 

celebrated CNY with Jane's family. greatly enjoyed their hospitality and thanks for all those delicious foods! and ang pows! (jane, tell ur mom, her sour baboy stew was great. i'm telling myself now, stop being a vegetarian.. but, really, it takes time to readjust.... will try harder!)

jane, lets visit The Living Room again.. i LOVE the place!

3 good places to eat out in Kuching (it'll cost you a lot.. but, i promise the ambiance and just being there will really justify your ringgits). The Living Room, Bla..Bla... Bla.., and The Junk (same owner and very near to each outlet) so, you can order a dish from any outlets' kitchens. good selection of wines, cocktails and liq. being so, sorry these are not HALAL outlets.

more good place to eat out in Kuching: (Dy, thanks for the treat at TOP SPOT). seafood, Halal. (they serve beer though..). should try the MANGO TREE too.. good thai foods there.

why i write aboout foods arr? 

yeah.. because i'm home and foods are way to enjoy family time. it's good to be home again.

flood

flood hit Kuching badly. a friend who live in Matang Jaya called (Dy, thanks for the call!) and asked if my place (Batu Kawa) ok. Thank God, a couple of months ago, the developer of the newly built neigbouring Taman, completed the extension to our drainage system. therefore, we have a proper and working drainage system. 

the king tide from 09/01-17/01 (expected to be more than 6 m) and non stop pouring rain makes the flood in Kuching and surrounding area (Serian and Bau) the worst for the past 3 years. (yay! my first real encounter with flood... no, i didn't count the flashflood in Kajang years back as a real flood)

one of my student still not coming back to college since weekends, he's stranded by the flood in his kampung. (Kg. Tebakang, Serian, one of those badly hit area).  the sun shine today (for about 3 hours)... and the rain start pouring again...

i called mom last night and she told me it's raining heavily in Ranau too.....

for the weekend..

bah... ngirup..

my fave drink - choc o' (terpengaruh sama iklan, minum milo anda jadi kuat dan sihat!).. the best so far is Cadbury choc drink (pasal dia creamy and very.... very... ya... creamy...) bah, minum dulu (jemput..jemput..)

ahhh.. 28 new girls in the new batch (more heads - and hearts to watch over). i need more than a good choc drink to carry on..

ya, i'm the girls' warden (deiii...)

back to my old desk

life's getting more interesting.. 145 new students (60 PKA). Our new building is not ready yet, so we have to place them some 6 miles away from our main campus. they will stay at RCBM hostel (and.. since RCBM only have one hall- it's a hospital after all, not a training institution, we have to beg KSKB for a hall for our 85 PPKP). KSKB is about 6.5 miles away from KKAK (our main campus)... i have yet to see the new class schedule(s)

conclusion: 7 classes at 3 different places, 3 core subjects

can't wait to buli all those budaks

PKA = pembantu kesihatan awam

RCBM = Rajah Charles Brooke Memorial Hospital

KSKB = Kolej sains kesihatan bersekutu

PPKP = Penolong Pegawai Kesihatan Persekitaran

KKAK= kolej kesihatan awam Kuching

ahhh...
