My Back Up Plans

Assalamualaikum wbt

During Epidemiology lecture in Prophylactic Department yesterday, there were only 5 of my groupmates attended the lecture. And I was the only girl among those guys. The rest of them were students from the other groups. The story was, during the break, they were chatting about some plans that they wish they could do. I overheard it and was wondering what kind of plans they wanted to fulfill.

Later on they told me that it was about their back up plan if only they can’t manage to complete their study successfully. I just couldn’t resist to laugh listening to their plans. 1 thing that I had enough to laugh on was to become a steward but surely not in Malaysia. Instead, to work with an international airline service. Clear enough. This can help him to avoid meeting people in Malaysia who will keep asking where on earth he has been working as a doctor. God forbid, I don’t want it to happen too but at least they are a step ahead of me to have prepared for the worst. So, when the second part of the lecture continued, I daydreamed at my seat and it turned out that my friend who sat next to me laughed at me after looking through my list.

1) To fit in as Mak Andak’s nanny in Alexanderia, Egypt. If then she doesn’t need one anymore, I will proceed

2) To become a full time blogger and run e-money for my earning and surely will use a different nick name. I’m thinking of a name that sound not so me. Kajol Malaya for instance. Hehe. But if that still can make people notice my existence in Malaysia not as a doctor, I will proceed to

3) Live sound and silent in the most rural town in Sabah and run a children care center. If it happens to be my dear friends are sent to work in the nearby hospital and notice me there, I will

4) Marry Annas and live in Syria! Aaaa…. Tak mau! (refer to entries on Monolog Bersama Iman i-finale to recall who Annas is).

I know I don’t want it. So, let’s strive for a better tomorrow. A better than good, insya Allah.

Happy Teacher’s Day to all my teachers, ustaz ustazah, lecturers, doctors and specially dedicated to my mother, my sister and my aunties (Mak Long Raziah and Mak De Aida) and my uncles (Ayah De and Pak Ngah Ajib) who have devoted their days and nights as teachers and lecturers. And to Bro Fisol and Kak Mai, and Cikgu Jawe too. Happy Teacher’s Day.

To Izu in London, here is the latest pic of Fizy. Maybe some of you can still recognize these 3 people who hold our own history in debate around 2001-2002. Hafizy (SMAPK’s 3rd speaker), Hakimi (SERATAS’s 1st speaker) and me (KISAS’s 2nd speaker). We have been groupmates for 5 years here in Moscow!

Hari buat dia:
Assolatu wassalamu ala Rasulillah sayyidil anbiyai wal mursalin wa ala aalihi wa ashabihi ajma’in.

    salam,

    Thanks for the wish…back-up plan mungkin perlu, tapi rasanya top-notch student macam sarah x perlu semua tu…jgn asyik pikir plan B, plan A diabaikan..

    Tapi dalam dunia pekerjaan mungkin perlu..tp bukan back-up plan la, exit plan..bro rajin apply, tukar dept la..even tukar kerja,..strategi untuk naik cepat..tp skrg dah apply stategi lain plk, sambung belajar untuk tukar Gred/ranking..

    Ops..lupa bagitau.K.Mai ucap TQ di atas ingatan Sarah. Dia kata sarah x yah back-up plan tu..kalau nak back-up pun jadi adjuct prof nanti, joint kami dalam akademik line..Bro kat opis dia skrg, kami baru balik dari klinik..kena selsema pulak.

    p/s: k.mai back-up plan nak jd diplomat plk katanya..maklumlah org suka bercakap..

    Salam.
    Eh KS pun ada terfikir buat list backup plan? I used to have this habit. Masa stadi kalau susah sngt nk masuk, jd distracted sekejap buat back-up plan. Selalunya yang ditulis mengarut jugak.Dah senyum lama-lama tengok senarai tu, baru ade mood stadi balik..ironi betul.=D
    KS consider jd prof boleh? Tolong ajarkan pathphys.Hehe
