My Ace to Zed

Now, this one came from allthingspurple, via the 5Xmom, Laundryamah, Winn and Chen.

See? I took the trouble to trace it back to the origin! To extend the use of Winn’s terminology again, the great-great-great-grand “tagger” who started this is allthingspurple. And I’ll continue the original context of the meme.

[A is for age]:
I was born in the year of the rat! Figure it out.

[B is for booze of choice]:
Tarak.

[C is for career]:
Surgeon.

[D is for your most dreaded]:
Lung metastases from breast and bowel cancer.

[E is for essential item you use everyday]:
Inspiron 6000.

[F is for favorite song at the moment]:
Just the two of us. Someone sent this to me recently.

[G is for favorite games]:
Bejeweled.

[H is for Hometown]:
Seberang Perai, Penang.

[I is for indulgence:]
Any chocolate bar. Shared with Joseph.

[J is for favorite flavor of juice:]
Mango!

[K is for kids]:
Some more. Thanks. Haha.

[L is for last hug from Joseph]
This morning.

[M is for years of medical career]:
10 years.

[N is for name of your crush]:
Julia Roberts. Since Pretty Woman.

[O is for overnight hospital stays]:
On call counted or not? Lemme see… 10 years X 12 months a year X average of 8 calls a month = 960 days, more or less. Probably more since 8 calls is a conservative figure.

[P is for phobias]:
Car crash.

[Q is for quote]: Aiks.. where did the quote go? OK, here it is:
Take plenty of fibres! And don’t strain in the toilet!

[R is for biggest regret:]
Getting angry when I did.

[S is for status, married or single]
Divorced.

[T is for time you wake up:]
6.15 am.

[U is for underwear:]
Classified information.

[V is for vegetable you love:]
Tomatoes.

[W is for worst habit:]
Last minute worker: now… to get working on the income tax returns.

[X is for x-rays you’ve had]:
2 CXRs, one for entrance to university and one before starting work.

[Y is for yummy food I’d like to eat]:
In the mood for sushi today.

[Z is for zodiac sign]:
The ram. *hint* Hehe. See the next post


Update: Oops.. looks like the previous post (Birthday Wishlist) got lost… ok.. i’ll do it again.
Update again: Double oops.. i forgot to tag anyone…. Eve, you’re it!
Update again again: ok.. lemme tag Diana with this one too. Tell us about yourself!

    Chen, probably will know them if it’s one year difference.

    mott, how old do you want me to be? Unfortunately, I’ll be that age sooner or later. Hehe.

    jonzz, tomato is botanically a fruit… but in culinary terms, a vegetable. See this.

  16. eastcoastlife March 22, 2007 9:50 pm

    wah, surgeons in Malaysia so free wan arh! Do tag after tag after tag…. hehehe

  17. George March 23, 2007 12:54 am

    Eastcoastlife, correctlah! We surgeons are either blogging or on a holiday!!! He He He !

  18. Bernard March 23, 2007 9:16 am

    Hijackqueen, err.. I’m older than half the human population of the entire universe too.

    allthingspurple, uahh.. how to argue like that? Booze of choice means “the favourite”, right? Alternatively, it might mean “If you had a choice, what would it be?” I’d rather not drink but if offered in the spirit of the occasion, then red would be my choice. I’m allergic to beer, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t take it. The allergy is not that bad.

    eve, thanks.. now I know you a little better.

    Chelsea, uahh.. sushi quin la liddat.

    eastcoastlife, yup… take time to bring you the excitement of the surgical world ma…

    … actually… tags are time-saving. Think so?

    George, HI-5!!

  19. Diana March 23, 2007 10:39 am

    Aiyo….no time to promote and advertise myself lar…u know me…taking paid posts, busy blogging and rectifying posts almost all day. But thanks for the link. :)

  20. eastcoastlife March 23, 2007 4:11 pm

    Wah! I should tell my Singapore doctor and surgeon friends to relax and earn less, look at their Malaysian counterparts! But then hor, do you two charge exhorbitant fees to maintain this type of lifestyle??? hahaha….

  21. Bengbeng March 24, 2007 9:31 pm

    Bernard, this meme is an eye opener for me. It is so ‘not demanding’ of life.

  22. Bernard March 24, 2007 9:54 pm

    Diana, not writing ah? Do you know what a tag is???

    eastcoastlife, it depends on what sort of lifestyle you want. I guess it depends on what your priorities are. Whatever the profession.

    Bengbeng, i’m not sure i understand what you mean… wanna elaborate?

  23. Bengbeng March 25, 2007 2:03 pm

    i mean u ask for so little and give so much :)
    mayb i am just over-reading between the lines …in that case ….sorry oops. just that i consider net frens my friends and talk boh kek ki just like a fren :)

  24. yenjai March 25, 2007 3:03 pm

    chen, huh? You are one year my junior? Now only I know

  25. Bernard March 25, 2007 3:15 pm

    Bengbeng, oh i see… well, I’ve seen what a “demanding” life can do to you. Agree?

    I appreciate you talking “boh kek ki” with me. :-)

  26. Bengbeng March 25, 2007 11:30 pm
