Roma, 3rd year & Abang den da kawen! =)

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Alhamdulillah syukur atas segala nikmat yang diberi oleh Allah. selawat dan salam atas junjungan Nabi Muhammad SAW. so let's begin the story shall we?

Almost 3 months without updates, pardon me for not being consistent with this blog. my bad. nevertheless here I am to continue my writing In Shaa Allah.to cut story short, few things happened in my life and I'm so grateful for every single thing. Alhamdulillah..

1. I've passed 3rd year.. big relief..can't wait to start 4th year next term..=)

Alhamdulillah, syukur xterhingga ble tau result haritu. cuak jgk at first place sbb last time subject Patho punye carry marks sipi2 je. so, I worked really hard dgn latihan tubi MCQ Robbins Review for every topic, brush up blk knowledge patho sume. mmg struggle habis-habisan jgk mse final tu. dan Alhamdulillah, berkat doa mama abah, family n friends sume, usaha dan rezeki yg Allah bagi, I've passed every module dgn honours overall. so, adik2 yg tga duk bce entry ni (kalau ade la), never give up hope. rahmat Allah tu luas. my moto of life is; " success is a journey not a destination". so, kne always trust in Allah. kdg2 ble fail tu mmg la frust, sedih sume. but that's not the end of it! rectify, improve from the mistakes u've made. ujian tu adalah sentuhan kasih syg Allah. muhasabah byk2 in every aspects; academic n ur ibadah. doa utk kwn2 jgn tinggal everytime lepas solat. jgn selfish. Jazakumullahu khairan jaza' kpd sume org yg bg endless support especially family n friends dan tutor kami yg sgt kami respect: Dr. Fahmi. =)

but the experience meeting with patients is priceless. I really enjoyed the clinical rotation especially kat Neurosurgery rotation in Cork University Hospital(CUH). consultants yg baik2 walaupun everytime pegi mmg kne prepare btol2 kalau x nanti kne tembak2 dgn soalan. hehe. tp seronok sgt. General Practitioner(GP) was really awesome too. one-to-one coaching from Dr. Orla n Dr. Linda mmg sgt2 membantu in improving my history taking, present back the history, clinical skills;taking blood, injections and medicine knowledge. my tips for ye guys( going to 3rd year), learn as much as u can with ur GP.

2. went to Italy with Teya n jln2 tadabur alam. bez sgt.

From 14-20 June, kteorg p Rome-->Pisa--->Venice--->Florence--->Venice. walaupun plan last minit which is mse tga dok exam tu tga dok kalut pikir accomodation kat sne n the fac dat jln 2 org, mmg cuak jgk in the first place sbb dga kata kat Rome byk pick-pocket, so kteorg mmg berhati2 btol. Alhamdulillah nothing happened. berkat doa byk2 mse musafir kata Teya. so here's the brief plan of wat we did:

Rome: visit Colloseum, Roman Forum n Palatine Hill. sume da book tiket in advance, n amek pakej so xpyh beratur pnjg2. before tu da tgk ckt documenatry psl Rome history. mmg complicated tp byk lessons bole blaja. from zaman kegemilangan dia hingga zaman  kejatuhan dia. cmne pemerintah dia treat rakyat dia dgn teruk smpi menteri2 dia yg bunuh pemerintah tu. yg wat is most exciting part for me is dalam quran ade mentioned psl Rome dlm surah Ar-Rum. penedk je surahnya tp byk ibrah yg bole blaja. esk tu, p jln2 kt Trevi fountain, n byk plaza2 yg kteorg g. sume within walking distance so, xpyh nk amek metro pn xpe. cuma ble nk blk tu naik metro n bus tu hostel.

then esk naik train p Pisa, guna Railpass for 147 euro for 3 days travel + 1 free travel day. overall sgt berbaloi gne pass ni. sbb mode transportation form main city to the another in italy sume efficient by train. so, ble da beli railpass ni, reserve seat kt Italiarail awl2, at least seminggu la. sbb last minit reserve habes nt.

Pisa: terjmpe group Msians from UK, sme2 otw nk p Pisa tower. nk jd cternye, kteorg ade 2 hours je before next train to Florence before g Venice. mmg rushing btol. snap2 gambar je, troih berlari p Pisa Centrale station. Alhamdulillah smpt naik train. smpi kat Florence plak, ticket kteorg slh class, patutnye 2nd class tp terbook 1st class, so kne tuka. n giliran plak lambat. so, tertinggal train. train yg ade lg sejam cmtu tp kne pisahhhhhhhh.. Teya mcm xmo amek dat option berpisah naik lain coach, tp that's d only option yg ade unless kne tggu lama lg. so, kteorg split.

Alhamdulillah, bertemu blk kat Venice. hehe..Teya takut den tertidur je. dpt duduk sebelah laki muslim dlm train. dia da keje 30 tahun kat textile company. fasih btol dia ckp Italy. asyik2 dok Mamia. haha. tp baik jela pak cik tu. then rehat kt Piave hotel, in Venice Mestre. 3 star hotel, tp mmg selesa sgt. bez2. recommended kalau ade org nk p, 97 euro for 3 nights. murah kot. then, blk venice pln utk esk punye journey kt Florence tp xreserve seat train lg..pening mlm tu dok fikir cne.

unforgettable scene di train station & train to Florence::
sume high speed train ticket da abes, tinggal yg bese2 je which is yg kne tuka2 train n lambat. siap dia ckp xd ticket train. juz naik je. kami pn naik la. dan duduk kt random seats yg kosong. nasib kurang baik, kne bangun duduk seat lain sbb seat tu seat org lain withour us knowing. n then, ade la pak cik tua ni umur sekita2 lewat 60-an tga duk kata2 cm mengumpat jgk bunyinye dgn pak cik muda sebelah den. den pn naik bengang la. dialog kami:

Tipah: wat do u say to this man? I feel offended u know!
Old man: (pandang sinis) sambil terus dok ckp2 dlm bhasa Italy dgn org muda tu
Me: We travelled using pass ok? (sambil duk tunjuk pass tu)
Old man: come, let me see. I can speak English
Teya: tipah, jgn bg.. (mcm bg sign jgn cari gaduh, tipah)
Me: ok nah. sambil tunjuk kat org muda tu jgk.
after a while dia tgk puas2 Eurorail pass tu. n cter bertambah menarik sbb ade error kt pass tu saying our residence is USA.
Old man: so, u r from US?
Me: Yes!
Old man: Which part?
Me: (dgn muka confidentnye sbb xnk cari gaduh lg) California!
Old man: Dun lie to me kid.
Me: I'm not lying ok?!

train conductor dtg, n Teya ckp kteorg nk p Florence, n byr 18 euro. which is considered legal!! nasib la dpt seat lain plak lpas tu. xlalu nk pndg mke pak cik tu. hahaha..

Me: I'm sorry, I think we took the wrong coach.(senyum sinis. haha)

Old man: Yeah, it's possible.

along the way, byk la muhasabah blk. kenapa la duk tbe2 hot kt situ? hai, btol2 ujian Allah bg nk uji kesabaran den, kne byk bersabar lpas ni. n Teya nasihat: Teya kalau rse nk marah, Teya akn fikir n fahamkn dlu kalau Teya jd mcm org tu, patut ke aku marah atau react mcmtu. (to put on the other shoes, to understand before to be understood) zaasss..

Florence: city of leather goods. time for shopping. hehe.. ala, beli souvenirs utk family je pn. form waller, handbags, belt, book cover, leather jacket etc juz say it sume ade! kalau byk duit mmg nk beli utk sume org, friends, sedara-mara sume tp xmampu la. saya blaja gne duit MARA je pun. hehe..ade flashmob wear a "Hug me" t-rshirt n play d game plak mse tu.  tp xsmpt join sbb takut xsmpt. then, we tried their pizza: Potato n mushroom piza. amek yg vege jela kn. sedap sgt potato tu punye. lain dari yg lain.

Venice: a floating city. travelled using Vaporetta; water bus boat. we booked the Viator tour to : Murano, Buranno n Torcello for 20 euro. berbaloi dan seronk sbb ade guide yg explain sejarah dia sme. Murano: famous with glass glowing factory. lawa2 glass dia. Burano: rumah fishermen yg warna-warni. Torcello: gereja lama.

 then, kteorg naik Gondola for 28 euro per person, naik with 6 people. org yg bwk Gondola tu strict sgt, rosak mood ckt, tp buat xendah jela.. kesian Indian couple tu.kat venice ni ade jual masks cantik2, tp i xberkenaan nk beli so xbeli pn. then blk Dublin-->cork.

overall, I wud say this is the most smooth trip la compared to the others. seronok dpt travel dgn Teya, jazakillahu khairan jaza' to u sbb byk tahan keranh kte yg ntah ape2 ni. i learn next armsterdam nk? hehe.  =)
