No wantan mee for a month

yoo ppl....

this would probably be my last post....not permanently though. wont be writing anything for a month or so cause i would be off to do my electives in some ulu kampung area called batu arang. if you cant recall the place, i suggest you go to your store room, blow off the dust from your form 2 geography text book and look into it. its an old mining town 45 minutes off from rawang. from wat RG told me, there is nothing but old mines,trees, old mines, trees, old mines.....so i really dont think they have internet connection there. but oh god, i pray the people there do cook pork.

its basically a NGO setup catering to the needs of the migrant society in our country. most of these people do not have access to health care primarily because of financial difficulty and also because of fear of running into the arms of law as most of them are illegal migrants.

the reason i chose this place is because i want to know whether im cut out to do what 'i believe' is to be my calling in life. this is a hell of a good way to find out whether i was suffering from hallucinations and delusions all these years. you know the saying, "when you talk to god, its called praying. but when god talks to you its called schizophrenia."

of course the added incentives was that i was told that i would get the chance to work with people from Doctos Without Borders (Medicens Sans Frontieres). but the greater incentive of all was that i dont need to wear a tie or a lab coat and can go about their place with shorts and tshirts. kanineh, straight i said yes man. no need to think twice.

so hopefully by the time i come back i;ll have lots of stupid stories to write and would have lost enough of weight so that some dumb 5 year old kid in the hospital wont be calling me "badak sumbu."

KNN!!!
