Of Stilettos and Stethoscopes: Lucky taste!

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim~

Alhamdulillah, the end of anatomy practical examination on may 22nd marked the end of our practical examinations.

"it was not as difficult as i imagined, but was not as easy as i hoped it would be~"

well i have to agree on that, aina~ (i know ure going to read this =P)

ade sebelas stesen semua skali-upper limb, thorax, lower limb. serius time Dr. Tarek sebut "MOVE!" bila dh habes mase 2 minit, jantung ni mcm nk jatuh je. bukan sebab Dr.Tarek yg hensem tu okei dah kantoi, tapi sebab dub dab dub dab curious nk tahu ape yg kena identify utk next station. muscle ke, nerve ke artery ke?

mediastinum mcm ni pun ade haritu~

tapi syukur sgt2, semua dh lepas. we tried our best, let Allah do the rest~! thanks mama & papa, and yes i'm doing fine, no fever, no flu whatsoever, no worries =)

after 2 days of khan el-khalili-souvenirs hunting, today we went to Ibn Hamido Sea Food Restaurant at Sayyeda Zeinab to treat our tummies with sea food yummies!

this was my 1st visit to this place.
thanks to sufia, aina, bella & zapy for the 'sea food crave' =P
1st impression; nice place with nice price...sea food kan~ $__$
we ordered fried calamari, grilled shrimps, ibn hamido's soup, fried bory fish? kot~

fried calamari

grilled shrimps

ibn hamido's soup
(haihh bila la blh masak ting-tang-ting-tang-alexander cam ni =.=')

al-kisahnya;
as our dishes were served, 2 arabs dined in next to us. one of them was an Arab at his mid 40's, wearing a G Unit cap & tinted shades, smoking cigar- a glance on his lavish appearance was enough to tell he was filthy rich. he had a serious looking face that resembled a famous Middle East politician. his company was several years younger than him with the same demeanor, but rather he acted protective over the the 1st one with high respect.

We noticed they were peeping over us, making us feel slightly uncomfortable.
gradually,the rich man broke the ice by saying,"Are you Malaysians?"

"Yes,"we replied with smiles on our faces. proud malaysians la katakan =D

"What do you study?"

"Medicine."

contented, he said, "I would like to invite you for lunch..."(okey x ingt sgt dialog)

we looked at each other in puzzlement.

"Don't be afraid. you are like my sisters. i just want to pay for your lunch. is it okay? don't be shy, just order anything you want."

was he for real?

"oh it's okay. we're good. thank you, thank you." we nodded in awe.

he then called upon a waiter who later approached us asking whether we wanted to add on more dishes. we refused courteously.

frankly speaking who wouldn't want to tuck into FREE sea food? you could eat anything you wanted; crabs, eels, shrimps, bolty fish, calamari, bory fish, you name it. like he said, just choose and order.

BUT my friends were right. i couldn't simply place my trust on some stranger. plus, he didn't present himself as someone who was approachable. he was likely to set this off this intriguing aura with that look of his. could it be that he really was that famous politician? O_o naahhh, his nose was more pointed i think~

after we finished dining, we checked out our bill but the waiter confirmed that our lunch was on the rich generous man. whoaaa, serius sama mcm dlm movie2 tu!

and so we verged upon him to express our gratitude. he was kind after all! he even offered if we needed any help. we learned that he was from Qatar, no wonder he is loaded~ memang langkah kanan r dpt mkn free kat Ibn Hamido! *grins*

moral of the story:

Don't judge a book by its cover. HUSNU ZHAN.

Thanks again Mr.you-know-who-you-are! Kattar kheirak~ insya Allah, you will be blessed! ^___^

Rasul Allah (pbuh) said; "A generous person draws near to God, gets closer to paradise, and becomes distant from hell. In contrast, a miser is far removed from God and paradise and falls headlong into Hell. God loves a generous person, who may not be very well versed in religious knowledge, more than a miser who is engaged in acts of worship." [Tirmidhi]

now only 20 days are left until the finals; written & oral exam. masa untuk pulun!
