7 months

Alhamdulillah today is our 7th monthly-versary. Today is also our 2nd week at our new home in Taiping. However there is no celebration today. Akmar's on call tonight and I'm home alone. There is a lot to be done with the house. It's still barren. There is still no sofa, no TV. It may take a few more months for it to be 'homey'. Overall, we are satisfied with the house. For RM 500 a month we get a relatively new house with 4 rooms and 2 bathrooms (with water heater). There's also some space around the house to plant some things. We plan to plant some chillies, banana trees, serai and maybe some vegetables. I wanted to breed some rabbits as a source of protein but I'm not sure if Akmar's gonna eat them.

Currently we only have our bedroom set (RM 2100) and 6 seat dining table set (RM 450). Not much, but its comfy. Later on we plan to get a bed for the guest room, a sofa set and a stove & oven combo (from my parent's). No entertainment system yet though coz we're not sure when we will be free enough to watch TV. We'd be better off going around The Lake Gardens and enjoy the old town feel of Taiping.

Our lives are set to change in a few weeks time. I'll be going for my induction on 26th December in KL. Most probably I will start working in the hospital on 2nd January. Hopefully I'll get Taiping Hospital, if not I'll have to appeal. To my batchmates...I'm gonna be joining you next year in HELL (Highly Exhausting Life L.........-fill the blanks). To those who have read my 'Jacob' FB status....don't be surprised to see my transformation. :)
