Finally a Doctor ;)

Just received my degree parchments today. There's a total of 4 of them.

Am feeling a strange sort of fleeting sensation, staring at those parchments. I know it's a cliche thing to say, but all those years of blood, sweat and tears (not really too much of blood I'm very lazy to participate in procedures). Seriously. Finally. A tangible result, accreditation, a milestone, in my two hands...

It's a bit regrettable that I'm only granted these moments in my bedroom, rather than on stage, beaming around family and colleagues, really simmering in the moments but Alhamdulillah. A private moment it is, and I shall share it only privately. InshaaAllah much better than posting to the point of bragging on social media (which I most probably have the tendency to, haha).

Those 5 years, even before medical school, from KMB to Dublin, to Penang. The places I've been blessed to set my foot on, the people I've met and learnt from. The different kinds of struggles, the different kinds of challenges I endured. All those things that matured me. That made me who I am today. The past that haunts that I needed to learn to let go. Learning new skills, socialising. MashaaAllah. My heart's racing as I'm typing this. I once thought to myself, if I were to set foot on Dublin again, I might at the very least cry if not faint from all those memories, bitter and sweet.



All praises belong to Allah, from Him we come and to Him we return.

Yours truly,
Dr. Nur Aisyah ;)
