Macam banyak aje kerja

Yes uols....feel a bit overwhelmed with work!!!

You see, a few months back, I went to a workshop jointly organised by DBP. After the workwhop, I was so bersemangat that I submitted a book proposal. Yesterday, there was a follow up punya workshop and I was supposed to go but I had something to attend to in the morning. So had to sms the organised cakap I was going to be late. Sekali, tengah hari they called and ask if I can come in NOW to because those DBP reps are very interested in talking to me. I terkulat-kulat lah kan sebabnya dahla lambat...

Jadi, after lunch hour (in which I tak sempat pon makan lunch), I headed to the workshop and presented my proposal. Guess what??? They were REALLY interested in my proposal. Padanlah beria-ia uols!!! If it works out, they even want to plan a book launch, inshaAllah. Who would have thought kan?? The only catch is, they want the manuscript ASAP and I already have sooooooooo many things on my plate right now.

Ok....nak makan lunch. sambung later. CIAO!!!

long distance kembali

Dr Sunshine is now a qualified orthopedic surgeon and will now be known as Mr Sunshine. Following his new status, he will be transferred to a new hospital. This time around, it will be Kuala Trengganu. :(

I have written before on my intention to pursue post doc. One of the main reason is because I wanted to find a way in which I will be able to follow him. Tapi tiba-tiba, he got KT. That caught us offguard! KT was NEVER in our plans.

So, the big move will be next month. From then on, I will be conducting a one women show. With three boys pulak tu!! I need all the luck I can get. Thought of hiring a maid, tapi its too late lah nak hire one. I think I can handle it, inshaAllah. Just have to learn to take it easy.

Things are also working out work wise. I secured a grant and another one tu macam dapat positive response but no black and white so I cannot say anything la kan. I have 1 book chapter out, inshaAllah one edited book soon and a journal article. To be honest, I need to buck up on writing my papers. I have one up my sleeves and another one tu, baru nak mula research on the topic. On top of that, I berangan nak apply for FRGS but we'll see how it goes. If I dapat the other grant, maybe I can hold on dulu to my FRGS application.

Ok lah. Heading to the airport......Am so dreading July. :((
