The things you do..


he..he.. wannabe la ni.Posted by Hello

I've been quite busy this week. Indulged with work and lots of extra curricular activities to the disapproval of my dearie wife.. hahahaha.. Well, i've always been an active boy from my schooldays ; these extra fillings are the colours of my life !!

Last Sunday ; post call i decided to attend the Persidangan Pemuda UMNO Bahagian.. my first time eehh..Haks.. but the thing is.. Long live politic Melayu.. hahahaha.. It's quite fun to be in the rumble and seeing how grassroot leaders fighting for positions. Its a common culture and meetings like this really do reflect the feudal power struggle of partisan politics. Its interesting to be amongst them and observe their behaviour , their expectations and mentality. Sometimes i reckon its so "budak-budak"..but then..boys will always be boys i suppose..


on the job Posted by Hello

The one new thing i discovered when i started work as a medical professional is doing locum !! haks.. extra work in private clinic. By right, according to the General Orders of a government officer ; i am only allowed to do the job with the permission of my head of department. Do i have it ?? hahaha.. well , lets ask all the doctors who are doing locum out there !! *smile* I suppose its not that bad coz we are actually practicing our knowledge outside hospital compound.. and as professionals we deserve the extra allowance !! haks.. Imagine getting RM 30 - 40 per hour ( Medical Officer rate.. Specialists have better rates.. ) which is definitely more than a government on-call allowance per 24 hours( RM 75 on weekdays and tops.. RM 115 per night on weekends ).

As long as one does it after office hours i don't see any reason why we can do it. Its for the extra money to cover the high cost of living in town . But i disagree to those who abused their MBBS by taking emergency leaves to do locum or "dissapearing" for 3-4 hours during office hours to do locum work.. That will be very unethical...


the Thomas Cup team..haks.Posted by Hello

Manage to catch few sets of badminton tonite with old friends after a PROMUDA meeting. It was kewl to sweat it all out again. We are going to do it regularly from today onwards ; Tuesdays 9pm - 11pm at Sri Petaling primary school hall ! I havent played badminton for years now due to my nature of work ! It was good having that feel again... smashing hard the shuttle cock to the ground !!

Badminton is definitely kamcheng's favourite past time. I can remember , literally we played badminton every day during form 1 and 2. We were in the afternoon session therefore , every morning at 6.45am we will leave our houses to the Burhanuddin Helmi park ( the current site of the library and community hall ). set up our nets and play badminton for 2 hours.Why that early you may ask.. We played in an open-air court and between 7 am to about 9 am there will be no wind blowing ! Smart eih? Dulu -dulu mana la ada duit nak sewa dewan !! The gang comprised of myself , Azad ( the dynamic duo ) Mafiz , Jai, Burhanuddin. Every day without fail.... everyday.. and after every session , we would go to our favourite cendol stall and mmmmmm... life was so simple then isn't it...??

At the rate you're going with the locum thingy, the 3 series might come sooner than expected, ya?

I say, nostalgic pulak teringat makan roti canai and cendol.

Telal, we must play doubles together and regain our self-proclaimed title, Dynamic Duo. Power smashes and play... yeaaa! Geram ni... can't wait for next Tuesday. Come early so that we can warm-up by the side from 8.50pm and start at 9.00pm sharp.
