In My Father's Footsteps

Learning that there is much more to medicine than diagnosis and treatment.

Tired tired tired

Took my family for a weekend getaway at The Corus in Port Dickson over the weekend. I have loads to write but I don't have the energy to do it. Maybe another time. I need a holiday from that holiday. I think my slowly decaying body can't take soaking in the sun and dipping in the swimming pool for 2-3 hours! Why? Coz my son couldn't touch the bottom of the pool with his tiny legs (even in the children's pool) hence the need for constant supervision. And that fella absolutely refused to come out of the pool; it's like he has gills or something. At the end of it, my hands and every where else looked more wrinkled than my grandma's skin. A prune would have looked radiant compared to me. Oh well, it was all for fun! Thank God I lathered on enough SPF35 to keep the aging-accelerating rays out!

The Oscars just got over. Even as Ang Lee went up to receive his award for best director, I was having another kind of Ang....angst actually. I have 41 patients in the ward! Aargh!!! Why why why O Lord, do so many patients have chest-related problems??? Brokeback didn't win the 'Best Picture' award; I kinda expected it anyway. I didn't think it was all that good.

Gonna go dip in the pool (yeah, you read that right); this time to swim my laps (at least 20). My waistline is going out of control again.

Oh ya, I had a grand time shopping at the "relocation sale" at Metrojaya at Section 14, PJ over lunch. It would have been a lot grander if I weren't so broke. But I did manage to get 3 ties for RM7.90 each! I also managed to buy 3 good pairs of Charlie slacks for RM49.90 each. Maybe you guys should check it out (the sale is till next week).

Time to swim...
