Week 16/06/13

This is going to have to cover about 2 weeks of my life haha. Which actually isn't that long.....

So, let's start with some good news. I've got a job now. I'm going to be doing a Clinical Research and Teaching Fellow in General Medicine come August. Really happy about that. I wasn't actually interviewing for that post but they had other posts available that they could offer and I was just happy they can offer me one. I was very worried about not having a job and I'd have to go back to Malaysia or something. But now I can move in with Ryan, at least for the whole year. The job is in Ayr, meaning I would have to travel quite a lot but it's still in Glasgow. It's all worked out pretty good. Hurrayyyy!!!!

To digress a little, I had the afternoon off after the interview in Ayr. Ryan very kindly took me to the interview and waited for me haha. We then went to the seafront for a walk. It was a really sunny day and was so lovely haha. I've never been there and it was one of those really nice sandy beach but obviously Scotland doesn't usually have the best weather for sunbathing. So, the existence of the beach was a waste most of the time... However, here's a picture to make you a bit jealous...

Oh, before that day I have went to Matalan and done a bit of shopping as well. Let me show you..

New house slippers to replace my old ones 

A formal shift dress 

New black formal trousers 

Cream formal trousers

Last Friday, also went for dinner and ceilidh at Sloan's with the rest of the surgical/ortho team. It was a really good night. Unfortunately, I have no photos of that night at all... I know, I am disappointed with myself as well. I was too tired and lazy to take any pictures. It was a really fun night though. Loads of laughter and dancing! Hahah. I also finally got to do the helicopter which had been my dream for a while now lol. How sad..... 

The rest went out later on but I couldn't go. I was working over the weekend, so had to go home earlier that day.... :( 

Over the past week, I have mainly been packing and moving things over to Ryan's. The house is a total mess what with the tiling and all that. It frustrates me. I need to try and clean that place up a little bit coming week... if not I have no space to put my things!!

Yesterday was the summer ball which was held at the Grand Central Hotel. It was an enjoyable night. Drank quite a bit of wine which helped through the night but also meant when I woke up this morning, I was so dizzy and was really sick..... I forgot I have horrible hangovers. 

I still had a lot of fun yesterday. Sat at the same table as the other surgical registrars which is good cause I know them lol and one of FY1 and her fiance. The food was nice and the ceilidh band was good hahaa. I like them and was actually considering them for the band for my wedding lol... (when it does happen). Ryan was too tired and so we didn't dance too much of the ceilidh but did manage a few hahah. So I can't complain really. Oh, guess what?? I won a raffle!! So exciting!! I never win raffles! And we get to choose our prices lol. I chose a meal for 2 at the same hotel. Damn it was exciting!!

Some pictures I took from my phone and also some pre party pictures of moi....

Sorry there wasn't any pictures with a nice background of my whole body...so just imagine me wearing silver shoes lol. And I actually don't like this picture cause my face looks so fat and I look so broad and stout but ....oh well. 

Here's one with a close up of my face. I look freaking older than my actual age..... (sorry I complain too much but I do look old....) 

Our table - named Hampden Park 

Our starter - some vegetable risotto (there wasn't a menu to show what we're eating so I guessed...). It was still scrumptious though. 

Chicken with a pastry lattice and potatos and some veges. Very nice as well though could do a little more of vegetables... 

Chocolate mouse and berries. Again, very delicious but very rich chocolate. 

You can barely see it but there's the ceilidh band at the back somewhere... and that was a spokesperson for Prince and Princes of Wales Hospice for donations. The Ball was held to support charity for the Hospice, if you are confused by now... 

And my pride of my night - my meal for 2 voucher ahhaha 

It's too small and sideways as well but basically it's for a 3 course meal and a bottle of wine for 2 persons at the Tempus Restaurant at the Grand Central Hotel. Wheeeeeeee!! I can't wait

And I spent my Sunday recuperating mostly. I was going to do some cleaning up and building a unit but definitely too lazy and queasy for that. 

See you next week! Ta
