I’m tired of sitting in front of this desktop and waste my time playing around with friendster and YM. I think I need to take a break and have my own time to invigorate my mood and energy. I was planning to stay over my cousin’s house for some days and tag along any freelance photographer from $FC$ for any outdoor photo shoot but the latter seems more unlikely. Bro Azhar had advertised about his food photography in one of the restaurants in seksyen 8, bangi but I was not able to be present due to some circumstances but he said he’ll inform me for the next session. Oh and bro 2uhri3 add aku as his contact kat flickr. Cis, senang mcm tu je ckp sorry!! Bengang betol.. xpe la, seb baek die terer jugak..
I’ve been concentrating TOO much on photography this lately that I somehow forgot that my dream is to be a doctor. Heh.. I know photography should be something for leisure and hobby but the more I get into it, the more thrilled I become. I have this thought of getting a new lens worth around rm600+ [yes, you can laugh hysterically over this] but to come to think of it, I’m not sure if I really need it for my future happenings and yes, I don’t have such amount of money. Sudah pokai maa!
Just now I went out with thirah to KLCC to celebrate her birthday yesterday. The treat was on me. And much to our surprise, something unexpected happened. It’s a top secret so I’m not gonna tell. Heh.. But anyways, I bought a Readers Digest and one of the topics really caught my attention. “A bullet stood between a young doctor and his destiny: The Healing of Dr Mayoyo.”
Richard Mayoyo was brought up by his single mother and living in poverty in Congo, until he was only nine when his mother died in a road accident. So he then lived with his widowed sister who herself had other five children to take care of. Despite all those difficulties he had to go through, Richard did well in school. And then when he was 17, he visited his friend in hospital. On the next bed, a woman was crying while two doctors tended to her. Then suddenly she was quiet. “She’s dead” said one of the doctors. And ever since, Richard had promised himself to be a doctor and to help poor people in his nation. Along the way, he then became a doctor and after 7 years’ hard work, he won a place as a neurosurgery registrar at one of the largest hospitals in Africa.
You know what I told Mum when she asked me, “Dina nak jadik specialist ape nanti?” yesterday? “Ntahla, taktau lagi but I like neurology. I like the study of the brain and the nerve system,” and this story really tells me something about it, personally, not technically. Tapi aku jarang dengar pompuan jadik neurosurgeon. Huhu.. Kak Sue suruh aku jadik O&G specialist. Hurmm.. No comment! Hehe.. Results exam tak kuar lagi wei!! Cuak cuak!! Huhu..
In conclusion, we don’t always get what we want. And we never know what is waiting ahead of us. Life has its ups and downs and everytime we’re at the top, always remember that the downs are always coming subsequent to the ups and vice versa. So we don’t have many choices in life. But that doesn’t mean that we don’t need to work hard for the better.

Along the way, he then became a doctor and after 7 years’ hard work, he won a place as a neurosurgery registrar at one of the largest hospitals in Africa.
Richard learned from Dr Zorio that while operating on the brain required extreme care, it was important, sometimes, to be bold. “You need to be cautious,” Zorio would tell him, “but you have to be courageous too.”But unfortunately, Richard had been mistakenly hit by a bullet fired at robbers by a shop owner. And his lower body then was paralysed.
In a bitter irony, nerve damage had robbed him of the one thing he wanted more than anything else: to be a neurosurgeon. I don’t want to live if I can’t be a neurosurgeon.Then, with help from his therapist, he underwent some physiotherapies to improve his body coordination especially his finger so as to get precise gesture when performing surgeries. Lpeastu banyak jugak hardships that he needed to endure in order to become a neurosurgeon. And for all those sufferings, he finally become a wheelchair-bound neurosurgeon. Begitulah alkisahnye sedikit sebanyak. I don’t know why but I was very sentimental while going through the story. Very insightful and enlightening.

Allah does not require you to be the BEST but just want you to do your BEST and He'll take care of the REST :)
