last day =(

tmr's the last day of 2nd year!! :( sad. ill miss my dear tutorial group!!! all i did today was laugh and stare at the hot tutor and laugh and stare at the hot tutor.. and laugh etcetc. The tutor was saying this bicornuate or bi-something uterus is heart-shaped and this guy went awwwwwwww and it just set us off in hysterics it was HILARIOUS. tmr's our last session tgt =( omg and i rmb last year's last day. i was like THANK GOD i dont have to see these people anymore. moral of story- BE NICE to everyone my friends.

first day of volunteering today and it was fun! (surprisingly) i was posted to the neuro critical care unit and i was in charge of two scary looking phones with tons of buttons on them, and the intercom buzzer thing. It basically involved me answering the phone, ferrying relatives to and fro, figuring out which bed to bring them to, hunting down nurses whose wives kept ringing etcetc. it was quite an experience *wipes sweat* the one thing that really struck me was that people are really patient. at one point both the phone and the buzzer rang and it took me awhile to transfer the call and to locate the patient the relative was looking for and to get to the door to let the relative in it must have taken me a good 10 mins. I was like.. if i were on the phone waiting i would have hung up and if i were the relative i would sneak into the ward as the cafeteria people came in but no... everybody was patient and nice!

pissed a few nurses off though.. heh. and on my first day. i asked too many qns. i panicked everytime someone asked for somebody and i couldnt find that person's name on the log. i ran around like a lost moomoo. but sorry, that was inevitable and im learning more names now so it's not too bad. =)

ok off to zzzzzz. tired!!!!

i am. a. walking. disaster.

Hi everyone i have a valid excuse for being missing.

Let's begin shall we?

on monday, i cracked my laptop screen. how? by leaving my earphones on my keyboard and shutting my laptop. SHADDUP i always do that it's the first time it's done any damage to poor bambi! i was hysterical and i just got bambi back and yes, (i'm not usually a sucker for abbreviations but..) FML i'm 120 pounds poorer.

on tuesday, I woke up to my gp mate calling me demanding where i was cause, uh the taxi and three nervous wrecks were waiting for me to get to our gp placement. why nervous? oh. cause i HAD A HISTORY TAKING EXAM that day! once again, cursed, (i never oversleep i'm not lying i swear, somehow i always wake up nowadays it's a matter of whether i choose to go back to sleep or not) and wailed about having to spend extra money on the cab fare NYEH. but all went well, got there, passed(whoo!!) and even got a peck on the cheek by a 69 year old man.

on wednesday, i burnt my very expensive medball dress. yes the gorgeous white one. lauren wanted to borrow it and i was trying to be nice and i held an iron near my dress hoping the steam would straighten the creases, but all that happened was that i melted a hole in my dress.

ran wailing to jima who had trouble keeping a straight face.

came back today relieved that the day had gone without me doing anything retarded, only to find three very frustrated housemates in the kitchen fiddling with the (spoilt) washing machine. Muttered the obligatory sympathetic "oh dears" and "can i helps" and was about to retreat to my room with my very awesome creamy salmon pasta when shimei suddenly asked me if i had put a lot of clothes in when i last used it. flashbacks ensued, and i think.. uh.. i AM the cause of the broken washing machine.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO TMR im such a klutz this week!!!!

got a big test tmr though. will update more after!!=)

No Room for Breathers

Even though the bulk of the semester is over, there is still not much time for breathing.

I'm glad all the mid terms and events are over. At least now, I get to concentrate on finishing up the projects and revising for the finals. What a life. It disgusts me to think how my life has been centred around nothing but school. Even when I have some time to myself (which is so hard to come by sometimes), the first thing that pops in my mind is whether this or that has been done for some project or some revision. Yes, I do have rugby and other things but I just don't like how I can't just leave my work at the door sometimes.

Speaking of which, I'm so glad for weekends. Weekends are seriously my sanctuary. Touch every Saturday simply makes my day cos I get to hang out with the craziest yet greatest bunch. I like how we have random outings and cravings. Just this weekend we headed down to Melben to eat our favourite 3 dishes: crab bee hoon, chilli crab and butter crab. Yes, we do order that much but honestly, there are 6 of us and it doesn't come down to a lot once we split it up (yeah right). After a satisfying meal, we spotted durian and guess what? We couldn't resist. Ended up buying 2 packets home for the family. It was pure bliss. I can't wait to try durian with ice cream next (yes, seriously!). It's little things like these that make the weekends all the better!

Alright, can't wait for another weekend!

eep!

it's been a week. i have been laazzzyyy.

nothing much's been happening i've been REAL boring.

oh i cooked creamy salmon pasta!!!!! AMAZING.

lots of work. as always.

lots of rubbish going on in school and with jima and erica as usual.

erica and i spent half an hour last night in hysterics over bao ching tian.

I GOT A CAPO FOR GARY!!! finally!!! =) no more using markers and rubberbands.

i'm happy otherwise.

am getting to know this medic from my old tutorial group last year and that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside cause it's hard to make close friends in uni, esp in 2nd year. it is.

i've not been running for a week. sorryyy lazyyyy =(

if anyone is bored go read pro-ana blogs. google pro-ana. there are tons of them out there. these crazy girls trying to get their bmi down to 13 and sharing ways of losing weight and hiding their anorexia from their family and friends. im sorry, if you're 170 cm tall and 41 kg heavy you have to be nuts to think you're fat.

i am trying to cut down on certain things to make up for not running regularly so i've stopped eating chocolates during uh all the lectures(saves $$ also!!) and i only eat dessert every so often. i do not stuff my mouth with cheesecake everyday anymore.

hehehe.

okay that's enough rubbishing from me.

oh i'm going to tenerife with elizabeth in easter! i can't wait to just CHILL on the beach((((:

huayshan

lazyyy

to run or not to run.. that is the question.

dont mean to piss anyone off but i think thin people have it hard too. i'm gradually bloating up nyeh and i have to struggle to maintain a presentable figure. and when thin people put on weight it's more obvious. NYEH.

i'm doing my literature in medicine essay on anorexia. the title is:

With regards to two forms of literature, discuss the methods used to portray the psychological aspects of anorexia in young girls.

I came up with that myself. it's a bit twisted ah, may have to edit it.

i ate an egg,two slices of bread and melted cheese, baked beans,broccoli and bacon just now. and two massive cups of icecream and maltesers.

what can i say, i love my food (((:

but there's a price to pay sigh.

time to go a run-run!

it's hard to drag my ass out but once i'm out there it feels better.

off i go then!!

A good day.

Today was an example of one of those days that you have that makes you feel like you can become a changed person. A better person.

Didn't start out promising, nono. Couldn't sleep, somehow started thinking about summer exams, got stressed cause started imagining having multiple resits.

Woke up with massive headache, car ride there made me even more ill, i get carsick here damnit!

But placement today was alright, we did all sorts of clinical examination stuff that involved lots of whacking with the tendon hammer, limb twisting and silly questionnaires-there was this one that indicated that i have a borderline dementia, just cause i didnt know the date and which roads were nearby nyeh -_-

Anyway, it was good fun cause as always, my gp group is fun stuff and today we were exceptionally crappy. and as everyone knows i am a talented crapper.

When i got back, feeling nauseous and pukey i felt like just moping the day away, but NO! i told myself to stop being a pig and went for a nice run and did some pushups and situps and that thing where you wave your legs in the air while lying down VERY THE PAINFUL!!!

then i came back and without turning on my laptop, finally got through a lecture i've been leaving half done for ages! i still have millions of half finished lectures but im glad i've done this one =)

So now am going to watch one episode of psych(BEST SHOW IN THE WORLD, my kind of humour) and have a ham,cheese and egg sandwich-- and waste my workout =( but hungry la!!

and try my best to make today a regular thing.

so worried abt how im going to study during the 6 week break!

two things from today from said crappy gp group that i couldn't stop laughing at:

-yea he's just a friend who's in my tutorial group and licks me when he's drunk.

-doctor sands, how many times can we hit the patient?

sandwich timeee!
