SUNYI


Asalnya mahu pergi jauh, mengambil angin segar petang yang redup ini.Namun hanya berakhir di kekunci notebook yang berusia tiga tahun ini.

Sunyi...kadangkala hati terasa begitu sunyi dan kosong.Pergi kerja, balik kerja.Rutin yang sama. Rutin yang tidak mengundang rasa menarik dalam hidup.Amat terasa sunyi dan keseorangan.Bukan tiada insan di sisi.Ayah dan mak sentiasa ada.Namun tetap terasa keseorangan.

Dahulu ada abang-abang yang menghibur hati, yang menemani diri. Kini setelah masing-masing mendirikan rumah tangga, peranan abang itu seolah-olah gugur dari dalam hidup mereka. Aku bersyukur kerana dibesarkan bukan dalam keadaan dimanjakan oleh mereka,sebaliknya aku dipengaruhi oleh cara hidup lasak mereka.Aku bukanlah adik bongsu yang disayang-sayang dan dibelai manja tetapi aku adik yang didedahkan kepada lagu rock, heavy metal, filem-filem aksi dan ganas hingga membawa diriku sendiri ke alam seni mempertahankan diri.

Aku berkongsi  minat dan rasa dengan abang-abangku tentang sesuatu perkara yang menjadi bahan kesukaan kaum lelaki.Aku gembira dengan keadaan itu.Permainanku bersama abang ngah dan kawan-kawannya bukanlah main masak-masak ataupun kahwin-kahwin tetapi main bola sepak di mana akulah penjaga golnya, main lawan-lawan street fighter di mana akulah Cun Li, main lumba basikal serta main lumba lari.Kami agak rapat dek usia yang hanya berbeza tiga tahun.

Berbanding dengan abang long, usia kami berbeza lapan tahun. Aku masih ingat peranannya sebagai seorang abang yang membawaku bermain di padang permainan serta panggilannya untuk pulang ke rumah ketika mak dimasukkan ke hospital akibat darah tinggi ketika aku bersekolah di darjah dua.Sayang sekali abang long tidak berpeluang menjadi abang sulung yang diidamkan. Faktor ekonomi mahupun caranya dibesarkan mungkin mempengaruhi. Aku begitu terharu apabila melihat peranan abang sulung yang dimainkan oleh watak Aidil dalam drama Nur Kasih dahulu. Sungguh aku mengharapkan abang seperti itu hadir dalam hidupku...

Kini abang long sudah punyai seorang anak lelaki yang comel, menjadi satu-satunya cucu mak dan ayah buat masa ini.Budak kecil itu menjadi penyeri keluarga kami.Cuma alangkah baiknya jika abang lebih mengambil berat tentang kami...

Abang ngah masih berdua dengan isterinya.Faktor geografi menyukarkan kami untuk kerap berjumpa.Semakin hari semakin jauh dari keluarga.Janji yang dikotanya sudah acap kali dimungkiri.Kadangkala terasa bagai tidak mahu lagi mempercayainya. Seorang abang yang amat bertanggunggjawab terhadap keluarga kini berubah setelah hidup berumah tangga.Dahulu semasa zaman bujangnya, pasti dia akan pulang menjenguk kami sebulan ke dua bulan sekali.Waktunya akan dimaksimumkan sebaik mungkin.Habis kerja petang Jumaat, malam itu juga naik bas untuk pulang dan hanya akan pulang menaiki bas terakhir pada hari Ahad. Kini setelah memiliki kereta sendiri dan beristeri, Sabtu petang baru sampai di rumah. Ahad awal petang sudah mahu bertolak pulang.

Dahulu dikirimnya wang saguhati setiap bulan kepada ayah.Jika tidak dapat pulang, pasti akan dimasukkannya ke bank.Kini setelah berkahwin dan memiliki rumah sendiri, saguhati entah ke mana.Hanya mengharapkan panggilan telefon dua kali seminggu.Pernah juga dia ke luar negara tanpa memaklumkan kepada keluarga.Last minute sangat katanya.

Janjinya mahu pulang dalam bulan lima ini.Bulan lima sudah menjengah ke hujung. Mampukah mengotakan janji? Ataupun ia akan menjadi satu lagi janji palsu yang menyakitkan?

Aku amat mencemburui seorang rakanku yang mempunyai seorang adik lelaki, tiga tahun lebih muda daripadanya. Mereka bekerja di tempat yang sama, berkongsi minat yang sama, sering keluar bersama, malah makan tengah hari pun mereka bertanya antara satu sama lain.Untungnya dia.

Mak dan ayah semakin dimamah usia.Mereka sepatutnya dibahagiakan.Aku harap, jika mereka kurang bahagia di dunia ini, semoga mereka bahagia di akhirat nanti. Doa anak-anak untuk mereka...insyaAllah.

Cabaran menjaga Tok yang berusia 82 tahun semakin susah.Sebagai seorang tua, degilnya makin menjadi-jadi.Begitu mencabar kesabaran kami.Semoga Allah tinggikan tahap kesabaran kami.Kami anggap ini yang terbaik untuk kami.

Why Conjunctivitis?

I still remember when my uncle passed away 2 years ago.It was my second month in Surgical.My oncall day.We received the sad news at 5am and I had started calling people at 6am.It was so difficult to find for a last minute replacement.I had to call many people.I informed my SHO who was on leave.Being a nice leader,he helped me browsed through the oncall roster to identify which HO could take my place.He gave me their names.I called one person after another.I had to call the hospital and asked the operator to connect me to the ward in order to talk to those whom I did not have the mobile numbers.Only at 7.30am I managed to find a replacement.

I did not know how much I spent for the calls,all I know is I needed the day off for my last respect to my uncle...My friend who replaced me did another favour for me.He took my call unstead if exchange the call...so that I did not have to do back to back call.I owed him...

Tonight my colleague who happened to be a shy junior girl is having problem with her OT duty tomorrow.Suddenly she is down with conjunctivitis but nobody is willing to replace her.Its a long Friday OT,who would want to do it at the last minute?

So I gave the names and numbers of HOs not on duty and asked her to call...She just texted them instead of calling...She said she has no phone credit and shy to some of them.In the end,no one is convinced enough to help her.I provided ways for her but if she did not want to put extra effort,she will not succeed.

I wonder why suddenly HOs in this department getting conjunctivitis...

And I just spent one hour worrying about her..

Honour

Now my colleagues are afraid to answer my call because they thought its either changing of duty or putting up their names for unwanted duty.I can't wait for this month to end...when I'll be free from this responsibility..I've kept myself as low profile as I could but this time they could see me. I take it as an honour, not a burden.Lillahitaala.

Raikannya...

Sekarang ni semua sambutan pun hendak dikontroversikan.Hari ibu...biar siapa yang memulakan sambutannya,ia tetap sesuatu yang baik.Biarpun ia menjadi satu sambutan yang konvensional,masih ramai di luar sana yang lupa akan ibu mereka serta tidak menghargai jasa mereka.

Sambutlah hari ibu pada hari ini mahupun hari-hari lain sekalipun asalkan dengan cara yang dibenarkan syarak.Ikhlaskan hati menyayangi ibu...
Hargailah ibu selagi nyawa dikandung badan...




Selamat hari ibu,mak
Selamat hari lahir keempat Aliff Zikry

Alhamdulillah dinner bersama abang long sekeluarga.Pertama kali rasa Sup Hameed.(nama saja orang Penang).Memang terbaik!!!

Resting is the best Remedy

People said laughter is the best medicine. I don't quite agree.
After a week of hectic activities, eventually I was down with fever and flu, just before my presentation.

Last week we went hunting. We made ourselves an instant organizer.After work, Cyn and I went up and down looking frantically for a venue for our event.All sorts of hotels and apartments we went through. Finally on Wednesday, Allah destined us to go to the northern most of Penang - Perkampungan Nelayan Teluk Bahang, near Taman Negara, also known as the end of the world. We found this chalet with reasonable price and needed services.We were thankful and very happy.Alhamdulillah, our hunting came to an end. That time it was already Maghrib, so Cyn dropped me at surau hospital before we headed to the shopping mall to buy equipment for the props, games and gift.I had to take over the driving as Cyn was too hungry to drive. Actually both of us were starving as we only had light lunch earlier.

On Friday, right after work, we traveled again to the shopping mall for our last shopping. We got all the materials, but we did not have enough man power and time! I went home feeling so tired...only the next morning I started doing our props...Got help from Kris in the afternoon when we met at Cyn's house.At 3 pm, the event finally started...one hour delayed from the tentative.

It started with 5 girls, followed by the other 4 who later joined us at the chalet. The chalet was nice with beautiful view by the sea but with no tap water flowing..so they upgraded our rooms into a single family room which nicely accommodate all of us. That night we had good BBQ food - chicken, fish, sausages and nuggets. We went for a walk along the jetty at 10pm..and came back realizing that we still have some left overs..so instead of bloating our stomach or throwing them away, we decided to give to the locals..and they accepted happily.

Looking at the sea...under the full moon made me feel sooo small. Allah created the whole universe perfectly..the smell of the sea is so unique...the floating boats ...the breeze...the wave...Subhanallah...Looking at the environment made you feel closer to Him..
We had a paltalk about what if we were born as a fisherman's daughter, is our life different?

We returned to our room nearly midnight. I wasn't thinking of anything else other than sleep, because the next day was my first call in the new ward.What a waste, I miss my time with them..I would have stayed up overnight if I wasn't oncall the next day...

Woke up early in the morning just to miss the sunrise as I had to sent Sha back to work and I myself wanted to go home before returning to work later in the afternoon. Suddenly it rained so heavily...cars went very slow...

Bad call...once I stepped into the ward, my colleague told me that 2 patients collapsed. I knew it was going to be hard..the MO oncall was the jonah one...One of the patient did not survive...we resuscitated her for one hour.I even sprained my wrist during the CPR.Poor 78 year old lady...died 2 days post bipolar hemiarthroplasty.I only had my LUNCH at 9 pm...and only slept for 2 hours...

Tuesday...here comes fever and flu...I was really unwell that day..need to prepare two presentations..
Wednesday..I presented about wrist block, ankle block and Bier's block during HO teaching, followed by mortality review. I really have got no energy to speak out loud...apologise to my listeners. In the afternoon, I had a sudden throbbing headache which made me lost focus during rounds..I ended up taking paracetamol with tap water...Went back and sleep the whole night like nobody business...

Alhamdulillah...resting is the best remedy...all I need is just some rest..now I am much better, with full energy..and I should now start cleaning my room and counting our expenses for the event...

Thank you Allah

Happy first anniversary to my beautiful red car.. and one year 10 months for my red scooter :)

Four

1. Labour day today!!!Finally I got a day leave after working non-stop for two weeks plus, and tomorrow I'm going back to the busy ward after a month at periphery.

2. Went to check out venues for our event this weekend. Mission not accomplish yet.It has been so long since I last organize an event. Now I'm thinking of doing something special for Mother's day soon.InsyaAllah.

3. Yesterday, Aliff Zikry turned 4 years! Unfortunately we couldn't meet due to technical problems.

4. I realized that Proton and Perodua have lost their Malaysian identity.It used to be Saga, Wira, Kancil, Kelisa...now? Preve, Viva...all borrowed words from overseas.Our kementerian kebudayaan dan kesenian doesn't realize this? Tun Mahathir doesn't feel sad? The most beautiful national car for me is Proton Inspira, because the design looks like Mitsubishi!!!In other words, I'll buy Mitsubishi rather than Proton.
