The Art of Racing In the Rain



Borrowed 'The Art of Racing In The Rain' by Garth Stein from friend soon after my exam as i was told that this is one of the popular and best-selling book. This indeed is an interesting book and it touches me in certain point.
Enzo knows he is different from other dogs; he has a human mind, he is obsessed with the opposition of human thumbs and has its own explaination why his couldn't oppose just like any human. His master, Denny, a well-known F1 racer shares everything with him including his life, his family and even his TV programmes. So, Enzo has educated himself by watching television extensively, and by listening very closely to the words of his master. Through Denny, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition, and he sees that life, like racing, isn't simply about going fast. Using the techniques needed on the race track, everyone can successfully navigate all of life's ordeals. Prior to his death, Enzo takes stock of his life, recalling all that he and his family have been through: the sacrifices Denny has made to succeed professionally; the unexpected loss of Eve, Denny's wife; the three-year battle over their daughter, Zoë, whose maternal grandparents pulled every string to gain custody etc.
What an uplifting story of family, love, loyalty, and hope! As only a dog could speak....

What's the Meaning of Life to you?


Thanks God i had my SPA interview this morning and it went smoothly. I managed to answered most of the questions with a breeze except one... "What's the meaning of life to you?". This was what asked to me and i paused for nearly 1 minute before i answered them. This really made me think of it seriously. Praise Lord i answered them from a Christian's point of view though they are Muslim. Yeah, the meaning of life to me is not to eat, enjoy or to accumulate property in this earthly world but to continue to walk close with God and do whatever God has granted me to my best in order to honour Him. Thanks Lord You remind me through the interviwers before i embark in my career.

14th May 2009


It's been nearly half a year since i last wrote here... all coz i was busy with study and of course the exams! i took them one after another, unwillingly, reluctantly.... Till the end of April and early May, as my Professional exam was approaching, the stress level was so unbearable.. During the revision weeks, i'd dreamt of my theory exam, my clinical exam.. Every night, i fell asleep while recalling the stuff i read for the day and then only to find myself shocked to waken up in the middle of the nights coz of the jerk of my legs and crampy limbs..

My adrenaline surge made me having early satiety most of the time followed by loss of appetite. I'm sure nothing went wrong with my hypothalamus. Things just seemed so gloomy. In a few occassions, i broke into tears when thinking of i just couldn't handle this. O Lord, pardon me for being such a faithless one. I prayed so hard to Abba Father and words kept telling me that God is with me, He won't test us beyond our capability but i just didn't seem to have faith in Him. Forgive me, o Lord.

A day before my OSCE, i really couldn't calm myself down thinking of the 5-minute bell. What if i went blank in that 5 minutes and the next station and then the subsequent ones? Thanks God He's really with me, my worry only proved to be groundless..

Few days before short and long cases, i was so restless... my mind was so busy at most of the time.. Few minutes before i was called for my short cases, i understood why the DSM-IV criteria of 4/13 peaked in 10 minutes for panic attack. Thanks God He was with me and is still with me that i didn't fulfill the criteria =)

Now, all was over. God was with me and is still with me and i made it, I passed the exam. Glory be to God!

Really thankful to all my family members & dear dear for praying unceasingly for me. thanks to dear dear that you repeatedly reassured and calmed me down whenever i was so stressful. Thanks to my friends and study group members (jun & ang) for being with me throughout the period. Congratulations to you guys! Thanks to angang for the dinner that night and of course, your reassurance.

Will continue to pray that God continue to guide us through our housemanship.

p/s: sorry angang u are not in the photo, i think you know why =p
