Skipped one week, busy with family

We had our last & I think only family vacation of the year before we meet again with our sister next year. It's basically a one night staycation. But the moments at the pool the next morning & trying to surprise our parents the very midnight. Precious. The place we booked is smellyy. Plumbing & ventilation issue. With only the weekend to spare, an Eid photoshoot the night. Definitely tired & I was upset that week because I tried so hard to make this shoot happened. From the clothes, to spending a ton. The total cost is RM1000 still. My sis helped so much every step. The photos turn out goodd. Alhamdulillah.

Then, this week with one public holiday off I spent the day with family, driving my father to apart, last mamak breakfast, ziarah the grave, full on grocery shopping (accompanying my sis), the evening until night with the bigger fam. Only 3 hours of sleep. Barely helped my sister pack. Then off to a very close to the 3 hours mark gates open. The good news, my sis luggage passed. My 'nephew' didn't, but after shuffling the weight, he managed. With every second counts, they passed the boarding gate 1 hour before the flight. Then, me had to rush to work. 10.30am, very very drowsy driving to work. Alhamdullillah I arrived safe. 

While I had a ton of work, the Friday & Saturday is a shift in my schedule. I worked the PF1 & ext shift. Then, I went to hijab shopping at Hijab Galeria, which I shopped a lot but regretted only after I iron the scarfs that I noticed some are sheer. Huhu. It definitely did not look sheer in the shop. Spent the whole Sunday outfit deciding & packing my bags this time. I am again, late to bed. 

Biznillah, I can make thru this.

A full week

Had a very busy work week, two events that spikes my emotional baseline which the poor work culture contributed to it but I tried a different approach which is ask support/solution/comfort from a friend & family. Other than to test is their response suits my needs, it also a nudge to me to be interdependent. Still, the events are kind of whatever & in scope moderate & not major. 

I went to Maha yesterday with ibu, it was nice if ibu's happy everything is good. Today is sister day & I really have to get ready to go out. Look into ibu's surprise birthday gift & a hair cut for us. Tonight, it's still gonna be another late night with my father's good friend inviting over his house before my sister takes off for another year of study. 

I stayed back & got lots of work done on Friday so I can catch up a bit on Monday. I'm still falling behind after a week of PF2 but I can do this In Shaa Allah. The cme next week? Haha. I think I'll just redah je. 

I got this, biiznillah.

Haywired Sleeping Schedule + Merdeka in KL

Alhamdillah I finally finshed the PF2 thing despite the slight challenge I every single step prioritise on being correct. I scarifaced a lot of after office hours to finish my job. It's what every new staff faces. Different rezqi. I'm grateful I studied, it did helped. And T helped me a lot especially when I'm with a clueless staff or things only PF knows and can do. Ending work at 12 definitely messed up my sleep and the loads of pending work I don't wanna face. I cooked curry this week so that's something. Really went easy on workout a lot of stretching & only like 8 minutes dance work out, My weight drop to at 49 which is yeay. I don't if it's because I actually reduced my work out (the resting gave my body time to burn fat) or I actually ate less (?). Yeah probably like 2 meals a day. But I also had some late night meals. Hmm. I didn't fast last week. Needed that energy. Oh & my left hand acted so bad that I thumb was swelling. It's painful. Also it scratch into my right hand too. 

Straight after work to home. Yeah. I just corrected my sleeping on Friday night now it's messed up again. Sunday & today I am so occupied with the Taiwan trip planning. I hope it goes well though I wanted to budget it's not that much of a budget trip especially with the flight ticket & coincides with their public holiday. Planning around dedicated prayer spaces also not wanting a trip too jam packed. I'm sorry to my friend if I overwrite her which means no intention but just I want both to enjoy the trip. 4 days is so short.. And MTAC warfarin next month.. Actually tomorrow yahh. 

At least we spent the night yesterday as a family & my first Chow Kit experience (ada majlis selawat) and the fireworks. Boleh la. Though we are on the opposite side. Not worth the jam though.

I need to fry some fish.. Aiyo.

First PF2, first Ext

Phew. Alhamdulillah. I think bc I passed the first experience of the respective shifts. I think I did fairly well with my current knowledge & experience. I'm very new to hospital system & my lack in hospital experiences. If were to compare with others that are the same as me, I think I'm comparable but with those who have experience definitely the differences in level. I do think in clinical; doses & adjustment I'm a bit better than last time. Also, I saw how busy everyone else also is so it's not just me. 

I'm proud of me for taking my job seriously & doing it the best I can with putting the patients care on top. Just the busy-ness, I do at points make doa "ya Allah, help ease this so I can go pray". And I think that's a reminder of what I'm supposed to do in life. 

I am stress & anxious evident last 2 nights with the fatigue, pain, soreness throughout my body. Also I pray "ya Allah, forever allow me to have the nikmat of sleeping, proper sleep". 

I'm okay now after the shift, able to grocery shop & drive home. With rezqi, Allah somehow plan me to be in darussyifa'. It was all green light at Melaka which is a first. I arrived here with care. Surprised my family here (got lots of hugs with abah) & with rezqi met my dear friends here. 

Allah, I am indeed scared of most things, every step of growth experience. I just in every way need You. 

Never, not.

Screen Addiction

I have a screen addiction. I find it very hard to not be intentional once I pick the phone up or when I do, it's for quite some time. It's especially prominent on my one lazy day (as I try thinking of other ways to rest but none come to mind) and when I try to put a cut off time at 9/10 pm ish, when I suddenly remember to search up something it's spirals to an hour long on the screen. It's very like wow and ughh how much screens are assimilated to my life. My morning routine, I need to screen to click the donation or as background positive affirmations, then working out I also need to look at a screen. It's a certain like I'm knocking my head with a hammer because I have this like sudden headache (which I never do) and right eye twitching (I really think it's from strain connecting to my right palpating temple). It happens at work which I continuously look at a screen. Today was a pretty good off screen day when I turned into searching up Taiwan to edit my itinerary because I was like wow, that's jam packed. Even writing this I have to face a screen. I'm so confused how the world has become. Our reliance our addiction. 

I thought but if I don't look up at a screen, what I am to do with my time? It's a dumb question I know but I literally in my lazy day don't wanna do anything 'work' if not my body is like heyy I need a breakk why so rajin everyday, so uptight. But as I was struggling to sleep last night (as I didn't have enough 'tiredness') to sleep, I though damn I could use all these times to ibadah. That's how I am supposed to fill my time. Then, la la la thinking other things, I am reminded how short my life here is. Arghh. Forgive me, ya Allah.

Geez,

This week things: youngest birthday, adaf audit, missing pharmacy dinner, week 2 mandarin learning. 

Trying *note: trying* to learn Mandarin

First of all, my reliance of screens and internet is chronic. Literally like some thing embedded into my life. I left my tablet, then suddenly I don't have a work out video. I left my charger, then I have to learn to what to do without reducing the battery life of my phone. Hmm. In the simple mundanes day of my life, I am reliant to the internet. I did left my ebook reader too so that's a thing. I am. I am nervous about my evening to late night shift. I am nervous about next week's audit. I am nervous about how I am to settled a professional video for competition. I am a little scared of facing up my co-workers in view I still think I am not as competent as I want to be. But also, I need to rest down. I also need to settle our Eid hijabs. How am I gonna find a colour that matches perfectly? 

And.. Since last week, I am trying to learn Mandarin. I knew a bit of Mandarin tones beforehand but oh boy it's much bigger importance that I remembered it to be. The intention is I want to at least know a bit enough to survive travelling and not mock any natives there. Using up Duolingo, Youtube & C-drama here. Any C-drama that's interesting please? Hmm. I'm losing time with my sister too. It's only a month left before she flies back for her study.. And really what's my progress on marriage this year? I'm sitting in a really comfortable routine living on my own there, cooking & chilling, a bit of travelling.. 

Ee tian tian,

Salam Taiwan

Guess I did it. I book flight tickets 2 months before a trip. Ahhh. The worse part is that is still coincidences to public holiday there, so yeah lots of prayers also had to spent a bit more. Also nervous about the train tickets. So I'm like this whole 2 days in my head really into searching up & booking everything on this trip. I really need a restful night tonight & a focus workday tomorrow. At least I delegate with my friend though I literally think of everything just in case. Even planning 1 day is horrendous. 

So how did we get here? As Monday I'm still in my head travel buzzing I search a lot as also Sunday I got to know that the China trip is not confirmed so yeah I searched up whether Taiwan is suitable for DIY. And.. I think it's still manageable. Then ask my boss on Tuesday for vacation booking then ask my friend. Delayed the flight booking as my friend wanted promo (I want it too) as well as I need the idea to sink in. I want it to be longer & cheaper but I just need to deeply embrace even this is such a rezeki. Alhamdulillah. 

Anyhow, at least I went out ziarah my family bringing my sister around, ending up at home at midnight, andd chronically still on my phone searching up the trip until pass 1.30. Arhh. I haven't folded my clothes yet or iron my tomorrow work clothes & no dinner yet. Now. Stop. Focus. 

So I guess.. 

Bismillah Taiwan?

P/S: My warfarin mtac went okay. This whole thinking up the trip diverts my mind from nervously thinking about it which is both good & bad. I did tried my hard to study even with this unfocused mind.
