He is right!

Went to Dr. Razak's room to discuss about the anti-infective agent seminar.

Dr.Razak: (talking about endocarditis) bacteria tu ada dalam heart dalam bentuk thrombus lepas tu bila thrombus tu pecah baru keluar kat valve. Lepas tu baru antibiotic kat luar tu attack before bacteria tu masuk circulation dan terus jadi septicemia. 

Sarah: Oh, maksudnya bila thrombus tu pecah, antibiotic tu ada kat luar dah eh?

Dr. Razak: Jangan fikir macam tu. The problem is, korang selalu fikir step by step. Semua benda boleh berlaku pada masa yang sama.

Honestly, I think he misunderstood my question. My real question was 'Maksudnya sebelum thrombus tu pecah lagi antibiotic tu ada kat luar dah la kan? Bukannya nak tunggu thrombus tu pecah baru nak inject antibiotic?' Kan? Kan? Dr. Razak selalu misunderstood dengan saya. Hukhukhuk. 

Dr. Razak : (sambung lagi). Contohnya Prof. Noriah kata kena settle semua sekali, baru boleh kahwin (Prof Noriah disapproves of students getting married while studying) tapi kalau saya, tak payah step-by step. Waktu tengah belajar pun boleh kahwin (memang ahh. Dr. Razak pun kahwin waktu study, LOLZ)

Dr. Razak: Okay dah. Sambung-sambung.

First, I disagree with him about that marriage thing. Getting married while studying. I agree with Prof. Noriah regarding this.(don't ask the reasons why) Hey, everyone is entitled to his or her opinion, am I right? If everyone is having the same way of thinking, then where's the fun? We are all unique in our own ways, we can't always expect everyone to have the same opinions.

But then, I kinda agree with him regarding 'Tak payah step by step'. You see, I'm the kind of person who had planned out what I wanted to do. For instance, after completing my degree, I wish to work for a year or two, then pursue my studies to higher level, become a lecturer. Or even, I wish to do something else. I wish to take Journalism or media studies. I had it all planned step by step. Unfortunately, most of the plans did not went according to plans. Hmmm..

Everything that happens is the best, directing us towards our true goal, our real destiny. For example in How I Met Your Mother, if Ted didn't meet Robin, broke up with Victoria and Stella, quits his job as an architect and becomes a professor instead (and many other things), he wouldn't have met his wife (of which we still don't know) and wouldn't have told the whole story to his children about how he met their mother!

I think it's okay to plan. It's just that we don't have to get too upset when those plans did not work out. I feel that it's also good to just go with the flow. Yes, plan and go with the flow. Don't get too rigid with the plans, and don't dilly dally by just waiting for the next flow. If we feel like doing that certain thing, then just do it! Life is too short and precious to have them all planned step by step, which would take like, more than 10 years. 

Four years of studying, then want to take journalism (LOL), want to write stories the year after that, want to complete the music course I've abandoned 8 years ago. It will take years and years. I might be around 80 (if I managed to live up till that age) to complete the list of things I've planned. 

Of course, those are my plans. But then again, Allah is the best planner. (whoa, banyaknya word 'plan'). 

For now, I would like to cherish each moment of my life. Planning stuffs give me headaches. I wanted to become like Forrest Gump. Though born with a below than average IQ, he becomes more successful than any of his friends of his school years (though of course, he didn't have any school friend except Jenny). When he feels like playing Ping Pong, he'll do his very best in it. When he feels like running, he will run. He did his best in everything. 

Of course, to cap this all. Life is like a box of chocolates, you'll never know what you're gonna get' (unless of course, it is fully stated that it's a Black Forest chocolate then of course you know what you're gonna get but don't ruin this beautiful quote please).
:)

Oprah Winfrey said 'Yes, you can have everything. But not at the same time'. BINGO! 

Plan. At the same time, don't be too rigid. Try to adjust yourself with the flow. 

With that, thank you and may peace be upon you! 

Currently listening to: Oxford Comma by Vampire Weekend. 

P.S. I feel like trying 'Bungee jumping'.
