Really can't wait for school to begin ... I'm getting bored of being on holiday already.

My days have been filled with lots of exercising in the morning and late evenings and drama-watching in the afternoon. Can't wait for episode 15 of City Hunter - meanwhile I kill time by watching Running Man and playing fb games. Oh yes and the new version of Huan Zhu Ge Ge is coming soon in 4 days. Hahaha.

I'm leaving home in 9 days :(:(:(:(:(:(:(

Today is the 6th day of the 6th month on the Lunar Calendar - which means its the hottest day of the year. Very hot indeed.

Tomorrow a fresh new subbed episode of City Hunter will be uploaded! :D

人生

2011-07-05T20:33:00.002+08:00

人多只怀念着未来，　期盼着将来，　而没有在过现在

不如放下过去，　不担忧未来，　好好活在当下?

能掌握目前拥有的，　真切地过着现在，　才算是体会人生的人

Exactly a week since I'm back. I really missed the sunnyness here! :)　Only 20+ days before I have go to again! :( It's like when you're here you don't want to leave and when you're over there you don't want to come back. I'll really miss 1) my mum (A LOT), 2) friends, 3) the weather and 4) the food here. Oh November hurry up and come so I'll can be back soon!

On Saturday I had lunch with the girls. We (or rather I) haven't met up in ages!! Missed them heaps~ Had lunch at Food For Thought and although the food was kinda pricey, the ambience was quite okay. :) Love it how there's always so much laughter and happiness during our gathering. We organised this lunch partly cause Yuxin's leaving for Adelaide next month. Haha it'll be cool cause I still can text her at local rates when I'm in Sydney! Will put up the group photo when it's available ♥

After lunch we kinda loitered around for a bit and we ended up going to Iluma and having yoghurt. There was also a random autograph session going on without ANY crowd or fangirls camping nearby; it was rather amusing though I felt sorry for the singers haha. After the gathering ended, I got so lost trying to find the correct bus stop for about 45 minutes before I gave up and took a bus to Dhoby Ghaut and from there took the bus home. Gosh I've got a really bad sense of direction..

Next week I'll have to go down to the college to hand in my withdrawal form. Sigh, I wanna make this withdrawal as low profile are possible ...

Currently watching City Hunter by Lee Min Ho (Boys Before Flowers/Personal Preference) and Park Min Young (Sungkyunkwan Scandal). Omg its seriously addictive, I love action films nowwwwwwwww!!

Road Trip

2011-06-19T19:26:00.002+08:00

This week's weather has been really good, sunny and all.

Yesterday with the fam, we drove ~1.5 hours north of Sydney to the Central Coast. Omg, it took soooooooooo long! And by the time we arrived, the sun had set (we left home too late) so the view wasn't that good. Then we drove back in the dark...

Actually it wasn't the scenery that mattered the most; it was the company, the jokes and all the laughter in the car that I enjoyed ♥

Decisions, decisions, decisions

2011-06-13T20:49:00.004+08:00

"Somewhere along the line of development we discover what we really are, and then we make our real decision for which we are responsible. Make that decision primarily for yourself because you can never really live anyone else's life."

-- Eleanor Roosevelt

This is a quote which I found to be extremely true and its a summary of how I have matured over the past year.

Today I've made the decision. No regrets ... for now.

Btw, it feels so damn good to have made a choice!

Sweetness

Tastewise - average

It's so dry here the skin on my index finger cracked and bled :'(

Resting Well ^^

2011-06-04T21:50:00.003+08:00

Holidays are here! <3 Been MIA ever since exams ended; giving myself a really good break! I felt mentally drained at the end of the physio paper and it's the first time I've studied so hard. Hahaha. Eh but really, I still don't know what the heck I'm memorizing lol. I'm actually quite amazed at how I got through Chinese materia medica. Those few hundred herbs ... omg?

Will use the holidays to rest well, spend more time with the fam and exercise more! I'm determine to exercise, exercise and exercise cause I've become such an exercise addict!

Watching the French Open finals live via the internet - Li Na vs Francesca Schiavone. It's so exciting ... I wonder who will prevail haha :)

999999

2011-05-28T21:24:00.004+08:00

Lookin' tired, I know - haven't been able to sleep well the past few days! :'(

Is it just me, or have the nights been warm? Or maybe its just my room.

.

ANYWAY!! Looking forward to the end of exams. Monday: Chinese materia medica and Wednesday: Physiology, then it's over!! Hahaha.

I've realised how much I dislike Physiology. I used to think it was fascinating, but Mr Z's way of teaching just killed every little bit of interest I have in that subject. Just like for Anatomy. Plus learning it in chinese doesn't help. And I heard he's going to teach Psychology in second year and another subject in the third. Eh why can't our school hire more lecturers?! :\

Watched the trailer for the new version of Huan Zhu Ge Ge this morning ... and 我起了全身的鸡皮疙瘩! Was pretty disappointed cause the acting is really cheesy and I expected better...

Oh yes and I'm flying off on the 6th! :)

2011-05-19T22:18:00.004+08:00

Revision hasn't been going too smooth for me. Only read through 10 pages of the physiology textbook the whole day and it has left me really confused. Not to mention there's only 9 days left to the first paper (chinese herbs!!), trying to remember 300 out of 500 of the herbs ain't going too well too. :'(

I was torn between watching the lastest episode of Running Man and studying today. In the end, I chose to study :) (self-restraint!! hehehe)

Running Man keeps me sane during the exam period.

One more week before study break (again). How time flies.

I'm starting to enjoy conversations with the local aunties in my class. And today one of the aunties bought a box of ten soon kuehs and gave it to me. "Share with the other young ones" She's sooooooooo nice hahaha. And motherly.

Been watching a jap drama called Asuko March. I think for now it's still quite watchable but I don't understand why the viewership is so low?

Finally

2011-05-02T21:34:00.002+08:00

After one month ... exactly one month, I'm finally ready to hand up my essay. It's sitting on my desk now and I feel this sense of satisfaction whenever I look at it. HAHAHA. I spent a few hours yesterday putting in the references - a total of 51 references believe it or not hahaha. And most of them were journal articles LOL as if I really read those articles - I merely pulled most of the references off the bottom of the wikipedia article and passed them off as my own references. HAHAHA. Right, I wonder if prof is actually going to buy my story lol whatever la he can go check those articles up himself and I'm sure there will be a line or two inside that's similar to the one in my essay. At least it's not like in unsw where they make you hand in one copy electronically and another hard copy. And they actually paste your electronic copy into a software to see if you plagiarised. Your essay is then saved into the software and becomes a part of its database so as to prevent other students from handing in past essays from students.

I'm overjoyedddd because I'm done with this thing! Plus I started revision for Chinese materia medica today. :)

Field Trip

2011-04-30T23:22:00.001+08:00

Last Thursday afternoon, we had our first ever field trip at a chinese herb garden! It was located in the midst of some HDB blocks at Hougang, which took me so long to get there and back. Haha. Anyways, we gathered at the void deck of a certain block at around 1140 and attendance was taken. Then, the lady who used to be in charge of the garden introduced herself. Ah Tiong. Nevermind that she's an AT though, she was really nice and passionate about those herbs which she grew from scratch. We toured the 3 small plots of land but omggggg it was scorching hot and I hid in the shade for most of the time. Plus I wasn't very interested in those herbs - they all look the same to me... Oh and the poor lady was wearing a qipao and tights and heels and I felt so sorry for her cause it was REALLYYYYYYYYY warm and humid that day ... I saw her makeup melting... and her heels got muddy :(

The number of herbs were limited though, due to sg's great weather and some of them have been plucked out by people cause there's a portion of the plot not fenced up. Haha. But it's so cool cause if you live nearby you can just walk to the garden to dig up some for your own use! So convenient right?? It's better than going to a tcm hall to buy.

Oh yes I took pictures!! Not of people though, of plants only hahahaha.

I'm regretting it so much that I didn't reference as I wrote the essay cause referencing it now is such a PAINNNNN! ><

Back

2011-04-26T21:54:00.001+08:00

Wonder if anyone reads this anymore ... but I'm still well and alive!!! :)

Spent these few days living in my own world and furiously typed away on word to finish up my essay. Okay ... exaggerated about the 'furiously' part but you get the idea ya. ^^ I'm up to the 11th page now and I'm so glad I'm finishing soon! The next problem is my references ... which I rkn will take me hours to sort out. Hehe or should I just anyhow reference? It's not like prof will check one by one right ...

I had a 6 day break, starting from last Thursday all the way till today~ I rested well and I'm all ready to go again!!! :)

P/S Seems like lots of things have happened (lots of blog updates too shall go check them out later) while I was in retreat!

2011-04-19T21:16:00.003+08:00

The longest distance in this world has got to be from INTRODUCTION to REFERENCE. And I'm only 1/3 of the way there.

I made myself lose sleep

2011-04-15T22:45:00.005+08:00

So after I wrote last night's entry, I thought I would have a "quick peek" at the first episode of Mnet SOS. I fastforwarded through the first episode and muted the sounds because those screechy bg music only made it more eerie to watch. Frankly it wasn't THAT scary after all, though the blurred faces and tweaked voices (for privacy purposes) made it quite creepy. And the narrator kept speaking in a barely audible low voice which added to the suspense. And so last night, I couldn't sleep for hours and I'm so tired today. :(

Mnet SOS is about SS501 investigating the death of a girl who apparently did not die after all. They decided to visit her village to find out more and it turned out that the members of the village were all part of this religious cult. While investigations to find the girl in Seoul were ongoing, the SS501 members took in a little boy from the village to stay with them. The boy had a really weird attitude and temper at first (prob due to the brainwashing of the cult) but after staying with them for weeks he changes for the better. At the end of the aired 7 episodes (they didn't continue to air the 8th episode cause SS501 were receiving death threats from the members of the cult), the boy was sent to a foster home and they found out the reason why the 'dead' girl faked death. The production crew and police managed to find her only after she was purposely knocked down by a car by one of those cult members yet again (and she nearly died!). Oh and at the end they found out the little boy was actually the 'king' of the cult and all the members worshipped him. OMG right. I was so creeeeeeeped out. I continued fastforwarding through the other episodes in the day but it was raining so hard and I was home alone. So in other words, there was no difference from watching it at night. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'M SO GOING TO LOSE SLEEP TONIGHT HOWWWWWWWWWW! Shucks.

I don't like horror stuff. :(:(:(:(:( *Desperately tries to remove images from the show from brain*

ARGH I'M SO GOING TO WATCH A COMEDY ENTERTAINMENT SHOW NOW.

Horror and others

2011-04-14T15:24:00.003+08:00

This afternoon I watched a reality show called Mnet Stalker. It's about a SS501 fan following them in all their shows and sending them gifts and even texting them. It turned out to be a scripted show but I was really scared after watching it. And after that I actually kept thinking someone was stalking me. (Like in the first episode of Pi Li MIT) Haha I'm such a wimp right. Normally I don't like watching horror shows because I end up losing sleep over it and this mild horror show has succeeded in freaking me out!! I stayed up the whole night after watching Titanic a few years ago because of the scene of skullheads at the end of the movie. I wonder if anyone actually paid attention to that part except for me lol. Anyway the next show I wanna watch is Mnet SOS which is by SS501 as well! I heard it's really dark and horrifying and the best part is that it's not scripted. But I'll think twice before watching it ... and I'm not watching it at night cause I need my sleep!

Just to update y'all, I'm now on the fourth page of my essay LOL. See I've done nothing much. And I think I can barely make it to ten pages cause I'm running out of stuff to say ...

Exams in 6 weeks and I haven't started on Chinese materia medica and Physiology at all hownowbrowncowwwwwww

2011-04-04T20:30:00.001+08:00

Received my timetable today for 25/04/2011 to 13/05/2011 and its rather crappy. Apparently we will have some sort of groupwork that needs us to do some research on and at the end of it all we have to do a presentation... Plus on some days the class timing is from 11.40 am to 1.20 pm - such a huge temptation to skip class! :P The best part is that I have Mondays off for 3 weeks!

Hana Kimi jap version was REALLY good, I really liked it a lot and the last episode was so touching I cried for 3/4 of the 2 hour episode.

Spot the girl ahaha
The acting here was much much much, I say, MUCH better than the taiwanese version and the jap guys are hotterrrr. :)

My attempt at trying to start on the microbiology and immunology essay has been somewhat successful. I've now got about half a page written out after 3 days of *cough*research*cough*. I'm writing about tuberculosis and I decided to combine the microbiology and immunology essay into one!! Saves me a whole lot of time and I won't have to search for another topic to write on. A few days ago I was googling up tuberculosis and looking up information on it and an hour later I found myself searching up on Oguri Shun. WTH?! How the hell did I end up there... Okay, so I force myself to go back to researching for the proper stuff and yet some time later I somehow, I stress somehow, am in the midst of watching an old SS501 program on youtube. AJSKDHKAKSDHFKAFHS seriously I'm not going to finish this thing soon enough. I've given myself 2 weeks to complete it and I BETTER do so, which means writing at least 1 page a day because I'm aiming for more than 10 pages preferably 15 pages. Sighhhh tomorrow I better write up 2 pages to make up for lost time ya.

STOP GETTING DISTRACTEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.

♥
The dude on the left most is Hiro Mizushima who plays Nanba-senpai in hana kimi. He was a philanderer yet such a sweet senior! Sadly though, he gave up his acting career to become a writer. I found out more shocking news while researching: he married Japanese pop singer Ayaka when he was 24 and ... she suffers Graves' disease, a terminal illness which does not have a cure as of today. Shocking much? The fact that he's willing to marry her even though he knows of her illness, such creatures are extinct these days! Well, I hope she gets well soon and they live happily ever after! Hahaha.

P/S Is it just me or has the weather been really hot and humid?

Skipped class to take photos; ya we're such delinquents hahaha.
/EDIT
A few months ago my school's TCM degree program was stopped from 2011 onwards cause there were some changes in the Private Education Act. Luckily, they approved of the degree program and now there will be a 2011 Bachelor degree intake! Yeaaaa can't wait to see the new juniors! :)

About my school library. Yes there's this little library of ours on the 4th floor, it's tiny and it's only one floor and I only go there if I want to study... So one day me and my friend skipped Physiology lecture (once again LOL) and we went to the library to kill time. She wanted to borrow this book about microbiology to research for the essays. While she went to the counter to ask about borrowing procedures, I stood behind her and the librarian EYED me with suspicion. All the time when my friend asked her about some stuff and even when I moved slightly her eyes followed me. Okay... it was creepy. Then it struck me - a few weeks(?) or months(?) ago, I went to the library and looked for some books. Seconds later, a lady with greying hair swiftly appeared behind me looking rather peeved: "YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO BRING YOUR BAG IN." "Oh I'm sorry..." I'm sorryyyyyyy, I didn't know ya. :( I guess she remembered my face ... since there aren't many students of my age and now she totally treats me as a book-thief. :\

Bah. Anyway my whole point is, the borrowing of books at the library is such a hassle. Firstly, you got to pay $20 to apply for borrowing rights and fill up this form. And if you're not a citizen or PR you have to fill up yet another form AND find a guarantor who is a citizen or PR. Annoying not? We're students of the school!! What do we pay school fees for?!?!?!

In the end we didn't borrow any books and left the library feeling annoyed. ZZZZZZ. Oh yea and we can't use the 4 computers in the library either; only members of the Physicians' Association can use them. No wonder I've never seen anyone using them!

Enough of complaining ... today's microbiology lab all we did was look at samples of mould and bacteria under the microscope and smeared some bacteria onto agar plates. Next week's the last lab and all we're gonna do is just observe the cultivated bacteria? Nothing much I reckon ...

Been watching the japanese version of Hana Kimi! :)
/END EDIT

The Lab Life

2011-03-25T23:09:00.003+08:00

On Thursday I had my first Microbiology lab session and it was definitely really quite nostalgic for me to step into a laboratory again. I know this sounds weird ... but I really miss lab sessions!!!! Haha it's that feeling of being in front of a microscope (and looking down it) on a sterile white benchtop and sitting on those roller chairs which don't ever contain your whole ass perfectly. And the freezing cold temperatures in those rooms. I missed the lab. The irony is, I used to hate it.

We did the basic stuff like looking at specimens through the 4x and 10x lens and preparing agar plates for the next lab session. Nothing very interesting actually. The only slightly more fascinating thing was observing my strand of white hair and finding out how unhealthy and dry it was. Lol.

Lab ended early and we went for lunch. After that was the clinical session (last one yay!!), which I reckon I learnt nothing much but got myself really tired once again due to a heated group discussion. = =

Got lots of homework this weekend (for once), which includes finishing up the clinical report, completing an assignment and starting on research for my essays(?). Okay I've been talking about the essay for weeks now. Haha.

2011-03-21T22:37:00.002+08:00

I've realised how little I've been writing about my life these few weeks. Maybe it's cause my life is so uninteresting or maybe I just don't want to express myself anymore. 4 days a week are 中药学　lectures and the other day is left for microbiology. 中药学 has been rather mundane though eye-opening and the lecturer is so amazing cause she just goes on and on and on and on without stopping ... Can see she's a really nice person (partly because she always lets us off early hehehe). We spend only 2 months on this module while students in china spend 3 times more. And I really wonder what's the rush. Looking at the content page of this textbook makes me feel sick, how in the world am I going to digest these 500+ herbs and their functions?!

Tomorrow's the class phototaking day and while in the toilet I overheard the aunties in my class discussing what they should wear. Have to wear a white top + dark-coloured pants and no slippers allowed. Haha I got this feeling I will be assigned to the shorty front row AGAIN. :(

Anyway I'm really quite annoyed at my school's library will rant about it in the next post!

The Day

2011-03-17T22:46:00.002+08:00

Today is Chinese Physician Day ... which means it's a holiday for me finally. I googled for the meaning of this day - think it was discussed during 医学史 lessons but obviously I wasn't listening - and found out that it was a sad day. March 17 1929, 381 chinese physicians in china retaliated against a government policy to remove chinese physicians. Haha but history is history, I'm just happy I got a holiday ^^

Hmm was supposed to start researching for my essays but I ended up going out and didn't do any work today. Oh wells.

Something worth mentioning was last Thursday's clinical session, where we took turns to feel each other's pulse. Things to take into consideration were pulse rate, rhythmn, movement, width and depth. Gosh I was so lost and sometimes I couldn't feel my classmate's pulse. *feels stupid* yeaaaaa I'm constantly feeling dumb in clinical, which ... can be a good thing?

Eh next time if I meet any of you guys pleaseeeeeee lend me your wrists okay? :) Much appreciated.

The Skin Problem

2011-03-12T23:11:00.001+08:00

Hydrocortisone is really magical.

My face eczema stopped leaking tissue fluid after one night and started healing. Now the wound's fully healed, only left with a purplish pink scar near my right eye. Now I hope the scar fades asap, shed skin shedddd grow skin growwwwwwww! Its known that the longer the wound stays, the deeper the scar will be. This thing has been with me for about a month already, so I can't really expect the scar to disappear overnight. Never mind, I'm super happy that it healed up already!! :) This auntie in my class was really re qing and kept nagging at me to go to the national skin centre for a check up. Haha. She scrutinized the patch on my face and offered to bring me some 穿心莲 (a chinese herb) cause it worked for the eczema on her fingers. She was superrrr motherly ... even told me that my face was really dry and I should put some moisturizer hahaha. The next day, she really brought the herbs (omg?)... I didn't actually expect her to do so... But anyway I didn't take them cause the steroid cream was working already. I know steroids aren't solving the root of the problem but I felt self-conscious with that patch on my face, plus people kept asking me about it 'oh why isn't it healing?' 'its much redder today' 'there are bloodstains!!! *insert gasp*' 'its getting BIGGERRRR'. *rolls eyes* Pls its not like I don't want it to heal right? So anyway I decided I shall first 治标 then 治本.

I'm happy; things seem to be looking up for me. :)

Gloom

2011-03-09T21:57:00.003+08:00

Haven't been in the best of moods recently because I've been having FACE ECZEMA FOR A MONTH ALREADY OMG AND IT'S SO DAMN OBVIOUS LIKE ONE BIG PATCH. :'(

Shit.

Today I decided this must not go on any longer, so I turned to guess what? STEROIDS.

The last of the last resorts; hopefully the eczema doesn't get worse or have must side effects.

A song by one of my favourite female singers, Lara.

Love it~

Which reminds me, I miss listening to her other song 下雨天!

2011-02-25T22:03:00.002+08:00

I'm damn screwed only 4 more days to the physiology test I'm not even halfway through. Watch la watch more dramas la.

And at this time I'm so pissed cause the content of the lecture notes AREN'T IN THE SAME ORDER AS THE TEXTBOOK. I FLIP HERE FLIP THERE CANNOT FIND THE INFO IN THE TEXTBOOK AJDGSJFGJSGFAJSFGJSFKAS

:'(

A Happy Ending

2011-02-23T22:56:00.007+08:00

Brain is saturated with Physiology information now cause the test was moved forward by a month. :((((((

宫 (Palace) ended on a high 2 days ago much to my relief because I spend about 2 hours every afternoon catching up on the episodes and darn the physio test just had to be moved forward!!! Okay so the ending was exactly the same as the DVD version much to some people's (including me as well) dismay. I was looking forward to a different ending cause the scriptwriter said there was 3 different endings. One happy, one sad and one open ending. Well they showed the happy ending, but I wanted to see something different...

I wasn't really fond of the 4th prince throughout the show. Well, he's scheming and emotionless. 8th prince was so much cuter hahaha. The last episode changed my opinion of the 4th prince though, he wrote this letter to Qing Chuan and suddenly I felt tears well up in my eyes. It was REALLY touching:

+ some really nice handwriting there ..

你见或者不见我
我就在那里不悲不喜

你念或者不念我
情就在那里不来不去

你爱或者不爱我
爱就在那里不增不减

你跟或者不跟我
我的手就在你手里不舍不弃

来到我的怀里
或者
让我住进你的心里
默然相爱
寂静欢喜
Ok even if the ending was that she was forced into a marriage with him I wouldn't be THAT sad anymore. I mean look how much he loves her!! Anyway I googled up this poem and found out that it was written by the 6th dalai lama in the 17th century. Haha at first I really thought it was composed by the scriptwriter.

I was super sad when one of my fav characters died:

僖嫔
Yea she's evil and scheming and all that, but she did all that just to protect herself. At least she's not two-faced like some other characters haha. She was actually quite funny too. I pity her and all the other women in the palace ...

Anywayyy, best ending ever! 8th prince travels forward in time to the modern times LOL. Imagine the amount of stares he'll get cause of his hairstyle...

Well in history he's supposed to be jailed for life by his dearest 4th prince brother who eventually became emperor. Rumours has it that that was the sad ending ...

The next drama I'm gonna watch is 美人心计, which is by the same scriptwriter! I like his shows a lot. :)

美人心计

and my fav scene in the drama. Love it!!!!!
Tomorrow afternoon, clinical session again.

Today is 222!
Yay.

A Long Road

2011-02-17T22:25:00.003+08:00

Today I had my first clinical lesson. Luckily it wasn't a face-to-face session with patients (more explanation later). We watched a video demonstrating the types of questions to ask patients. I thought it was seriously unrealistic as they kept questioning his medical history, family background etc etc when he was supposed to be seriously ill. HAHA. I mean - if I were him I will be more concerned about my current state of health, maaannn give me some medicine and stop asking me these annoying questions. = = And their tone was so interrogative, bad acting lolll.

After that we were split up into big groups of ~15 to discuss the few cases on the worksheet and a teacher was assigned to each group. There was this example that everyone had much opinion about, leading to a rather lively discussion. As usual, I just sat there looking at the ~~aunties and uncles~~ jiejies and geges who had much to say.

案例二: 李某，男， 62岁，退休工人。自述患 “胃溃疡﹑十二指肠球部溃疡” 8年多，常因劳累﹑着凉而出现上腹部疼痛，平常有冒酸水﹑打嗝多的现象，经常喜欢用手摁着肚子。 5天前参加聚会聚餐后出现腹胀﹑上腹部疼痛加剧，吐了好多次，吐出大量清水。赴医院经钡餐透视诊断为 “幽门梗阻”。目前主要感觉疲劳乏力，口干，肚子里面经常响，肚子疼痛的位置固定，疼痛像刀割一样，不敢让人触摸，但用热水袋捂捂可稍微缓解。口干，但饮食入口即吐。大便5日没解，小便不多，颜色像茶水一样。手脚很凉。面白体瘦，舌淡，苔白厚腻。

Haha yes I stared at it thinking for a longggg time. 胃肠气滞? 食滞胃肠? 寒饮胃肠? Aishhh it doesn't totally seem like any of them. I thought it was 胃肠气滞 because 疼痛像刀割一样 usually means 气滞 and there were symptoms of 胃&肠 involved, but then again 吐出大量清水 isn't usually seen in 胃肠气滞. To add to the fire, the teacher was like I can't tell you much, you have to figure it out yourself. Wthhh. *feels stupid*

From this I learnt that the body is a complex system, and in patients it will never be as straightforward as the textbook. I'm always wondering why I'm always opinionless and why I've got no questions to ask. Maybe it's because I'm not thinking? Crap la those aunties really have endless questions.

This session (2 pm - 515 pm) was really exhausting. I haven't had classes till 5 in such a long time already. Talk about a lack of stamina. Haha. At least there was this skinny dude who was really funny and that kept everyone in our group laughing.

Every thursday from on is a long day; I need to be stronger.

Back in Time

2011-02-11T21:56:00.002+08:00

背书伤神呀~~~~~~

好累的..
The lack of entries have been due to my laziness and hectic schedule haha. Today I had Diagnosis II exam, which went pretty ok, though a few questions really stumped me. Ah whatever, I've already done my best yea. :) For this exam, I studied really hard, the hardest I have in months I think. But each module gets tougher so getting 80+ for this will be good already! ^^ Next monday begins a new module on 中药学, hopefully it will be interesting.

Anywayyy there's this drama which has been a huge hit in China. 宫-锁心玉 is about a modern-day girl who accidentally travels back in time to the Qing dynasty. (Lol okay I copied this from dramawiki) On the night of CNY eve (around 2 am) me and Xinyi were bored and chatting on msn and she recommended this show. I watched the 26 min trailer anddddd I knew I had to watch it. HAHAHA.

Notice how she's plugged in with earphones lol
The DVD version has been leaked out onto the net (lol expected right) and I eagerly skipped to the last episode hahaha. Omgggggg it was a happy ending, I was thinking it might be a sad one but luckily it's not. The producers are even planning for a sequel (a little more than half of the series has been aired), but I really don't see how a sequel will work out in this case even though I would really like to see more of the couple! :)

Shall continue this drama talk another time; I really want to write more but I'm really sleepy now (woke up at 5 am to study).

Warmth

2011-02-07T23:02:00.003+08:00

Met the girls at gloria's house during the 2nd day of chinese new year! It always makes my day to see them! :) We had steamboat yummmmm.

I really like this cny meetup thing; this is our 5th year having it and hopefully we can have it every year!

After lunch we played a few rounds of Monopoly Deal. Lol that game was epic, couldn't imagine how the board game Monopoly could become a card game! Haha.

The place where ...

2011-02-02T21:59:00.010+08:00

Where we used to stand every morning.

Where we used to sing the national anthem each day.

Where we had to sit through endless morning devotions.

Where we had spot-checks on our uniform.

Where teachers walked down the rows marking our attendances each morning.

Where there were fungi growing in between the bricks.

Where we took our class photos.

And where eventually the memories were left behind.

♥

The teachers still remember me yayyyyyy.

Happy CNY all!

Rain

2011-01-31T14:28:00.004+08:00

Been loving the rainy weather lots and whenever it rains I'm in a good mood. Rain rain rain! Currently it has stopped raining though. Even though it's gloomy and all I feeeeeel happy. HAHA. Nice weather to sleep in tooo!

Am reminded of this incident that happened one ~~fine~~ day a few months ago in sydney. It was pouring heavily and it was darn cold and windy that day. My SIM card was dead (cause I tried locking it with a PIN and yes I locked myself out woohoo) and I had absolutely no way of contacting anyone, my umbrella could barely withstand the raging winds and my shoes were soaking wet. Moreover, I had taken the wrong bus back home (the usual 20 min trip became a 40 min one) and had to walk an extra distance. Wanting to get home quickly, I decided to cut through the park in front of my apartment block but as I was walking through it the park gradually became flooded and waterlogged. The water level was about a few cm above my ankle ... eww I was trudging in muddy water. The surroundings were eerily quiet that day, usually there will be random ang mohs around but that day there wasn't even a single soul in sight. (ya la who in the right mind will be outdoors in that storm..) The palm trees swayed violently and the rain only got heavier. I ran for my life cause my umbrella flipped (sigh) and the lightning flashes were really scary. Ay what if I got striked??? Its true that if you're the only person in an empty field there's a higher chance of getting hit by the lightning...

exactly like that ... those trees
Just started on exam revision today and I'm only at the third page of the first chapter. Way to go man~

P/S Oops it just started pouring again! :)

Isnt life just like that?

2011-01-26T22:04:00.003+08:00

Haha right hardly anyone reads this space now I know. It badly needs an update!

Well so what have I been up to? Nothing much, just schooling and kinda chilling out everyday at home, letting the hours slip by. I've realised how much content I have to study for the exam on 11 feb but I can't seem to get my ass down to studying. :\

Recently I've been into using 微博, the chinese version of twitter. Hmm I kinda like it more than twitter cause there are so many celebs using it and ... there are just much more functions than twitter! :) So if ya have an account there you can add me here: http://t.sina.com.cn/1933097703

I'm wondering if I'm getting old or what cause I actually don't really feel any excitement for the upcoming chinese new year. :)

Shall end this with a photo:

A 3 minute walk from where I used to live!

These Days

2011-01-24T23:06:00.003+08:00

I'm supposed to be one hour into my sleep already (now its 11 pm), but these days I've been so busy that my plan to sleep early and wake up early isn't going too smooth. Rawr.

Anw to my horror, today I found a strand of eyebrow which was half black and half white. And it was looooooongggggggggggggg. How come I didn't realise it before?! Yea I have had white hair for ages already but white eyebrows are a new thing here. Is this a sign of ... wisdom?? HAHAHA. Nope I'm not ageing ;) *in a complete denial*

Stuff

2011-01-16T22:09:00.002+08:00

Feeling bored, I started on My Princess and finished the 4 episodes in a day. The plot is really quite addictive although predictable; I can never get enough of chaebol-meets-princess stories! :) ARGH I should have started this series when episode 16 or so is out then I won't have to wait sooooooooo long! I've been flipping through forums, reading up on the casts and rewatching the previews. *twitches impatiently* When is Thursday ever going to come?! 5 days is tooooo long. BORED. :( Anw I find the girl pretty cute, she's all bubbly, funny and I found myself laughing and crying along with her. The main couple looks perfect together, there's really a lot of chemistry between both of them! Finally I found a kdrama to look forward to, after SKKS there wasn't much to look forward to. I got bored of mary stayed out all night after the 3rd episode, didn't start on secret garden and felt that playful kiss didn't live up to its expectations. And so I've been watching variety shows instead. Haha I find that I watch the most dramas during the study breaks because... you can't move away from your study table but you don't want to study anymore ... so you start fiddling with the laptop and watch dramas. Then you feel guilty because you've wasted all these hours watching and you haven't done any revision, you move back to the books but find that your mind KEEPS wandering off to the drama thinking...what will happen next?? HAHA this is totally true for me.

Bored I am, but I've got pages and pages of notes to look through :\ Watching dramas is a form of escapism for me ... So stressed when I look at those notes. Argh. It's been only 10 days of classes, 2 weeks, and what, they've been printing notes like no end for us... They drill us with diagnosis lessons, 3 times a week, mon wed fri, a 3 hour lecture each time. *bashes head* My attention span is only one hour maxmaxmax, 45 minutes to be exact, the next hour I'm nodding off to sleep, the next hour I'm playing with the phone trying badly to keep awake. In about 3 weeks I have that exam and I've decided to start studying after the cny holidays, 4/5 days should be enough I think! (NOT. but too lazy to start now)

This week's we got married was really touching. I cried along with the adam couple.. I can't believe they are breaking up already, like, everything happened too quickly. :( Honestly I wasn't their biggest fan and they didn't appeal to me at first, but after that they became my favourite couple!! (Adam couple > Goguma couple > Khuntoria couple) The khuntoria couple is cute/romantic but they seem artificial at times, I dunno thats just my opinion.

On a sidenote, song joong ki and yoo ah in won best couple in the kbs drama awards for their roles in SKKS. LOL this is pretty ridiculous but yummm they are my fav guy-guy couple ahahaha. yoo ah in was so embarrased when he was called out with song joong ki and kept flashing his shy boyish smile. XD

bromance <3

Weary

2011-01-12T23:01:00.000+08:00

Haven't been feeling very well last and this week ... :( Battling a virus.

Sigh anyway tomorrow is thurs = microbiology lecture = yay. Hahaha the lecturer is from NUS and he's incredibly cool! I was majorly estatic to see ENGLISH lecture notes and I promise never to take lecture notes which are in english for granted ever ever again. I'm so tired of reading chinese words, at least I can rest my eyes for 1 in 5 days lol.

Night all, I need all the sleep I can get...

One Step at a Time

2011-01-05T23:30:00.001+08:00

Was surprised there were still many people in class on Monday. I expected a few aunties/uncles to drop out already haha, but guess not! Maybe cause there's still a few more days left to the deadline for school fees. And so we shall see then ...

I was looking forward to the Physiology lecture on tuesday, but was kinda disappointed to find out that the lecturer was last sem's anatomy lecturer. I don't exactly like his style of teaching, but nonetheless I found Physiology really interesting!! It's not as dead as anatomy, but it was really weird reading about like say, the sodium-potassium pump in chinese. ATP is some really long phrase in chinese ... and so are the other scientific terms. Lol.

Hahaha yes and also this sem's lecturer for Diagnosis II is sooooooooo much better than the the lecturer for Diagnosis I. She's systematic, logical, uses clear analogies and doesn't mumble! Last sem I had to read through the textbook on my own ... luckily I managed to pull through, but a few didn't...

And tomorrow its the first session of Microbiology/Immunology lectures!! *excited* Hmmm hopefully it will be goooooood! :)

A fresh new year

2011-01-02T23:18:00.000+08:00

Happy new year!! I know I'm a bit late because I only realised that it was the new year yesterday! So with regards to resolutions, I only have a few simple ones like stay healthy and happy, lose some weight and start trying to show some interest in what I'm studying (aka quit being late for classes). Yup sem 2 begins tomorrow and I'm really not looking forward to it at all. Guess I'll just have to drag my pathetic body to class tomorrow! :(

Looking back at 2010 - yesss this is the only time I can look back without feeling guilty about doing so - I had some highs and lows. Without doubt I really enjoyed the first half of the year, my first year as a university student. Initially I was feeling reluctant as med sci wasn't my first choice. But I made new friends and totally loved the flexibility of my timetable. Time passed quickly in the 3 months of uni, I slowly started to like med sci - lab work was tiring but I got satisfaction from every session. Then came the second half of the year, which started on the worst note ever. Filling up the program leave form with a heavy heart, I wondered if I was making the right choice. I hesitated a gazillion times before finally printing my signature on the form. Handing in the form required even more courage, which I lacked, so my jie did it in place of me. Must say the later half of the year dragged on forever - or it seemed.

Also I dread my upcoming 20th anniversary, I'll feel so old when my age begins with a 2 instead of 1. Why does it seem like once you turn 18 you start growing older at twice the speed?!

Anyway let's just hope this year will turn out to be better! :)

Of Salmon and Domo

2010-12-29T22:48:00.003+08:00

Got a haircut today, which I kind of regret now. Was actually looking forward to trimming it, but now my hair is uber short now, somewhere at the midpoint of my neck. It used to be at my shoulders, now I totally feel insecure with so little hair. Oh wells, it will grow out again I guess. So in the meantime the cap is my best friend again! :)

Starting the new year with a new look!

****************************

Finally met xinyi for lunch on Monday. We live just a few streets away, one street actually if there wasn't this forest there, but we were just too lazy to meet up with each other. Went to Middle Road to have some vegetarian japanese food, which turned out to be rather pricey though the food was tasty.

When I mean tasty ... I mean everything except that salmon sashimi. The first bite tasted like the real thing but subsequently it had this plastic smell! And when you exerted slightly more force on it using chopsticks, water started to drip out. Extremely gross and it was not cheap either!!!!! But I really liked the tonkatsu set and the tempura udon set xinyi ordered. Overall it was above average! But just don't order their sashimi!! You know I was looking through all the reviews about this restaurant and every single one said their salmon sashimi was fresh. How come no one commented that it was sponge-like and overly thick leh?

Yes anyway, I spent so much on this lunch that I'm very broke now and if my holidays were a month longer, I would have gone job hunting. :(

After lunch we explored the nearby Illuma, it was my first time there. I found DOMO-KUN in this particular cosplay shop! The salesguy kept following us (me in particular) ... I think he thought we wanted to shoplift or smth = = But I managed to take a pic with domo-kun when that dude's back was turned against us ;)

DOMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :D
It seems like nowhere in sg I can find a huge version of Domo-kun like this:

If you managed to find one, tell me ;)

A Walk Down the Memory Lane

2010-12-26T22:50:00.000+08:00

I spent the Christmas holidays sorting out all the photo albums which were stuffed away in some cupboard in some room. I quite enjoyed it because I went through all me and my jie's baby photos and child photos. Haha. We took all of them out from their slots, rearranged them in chronological order (thankfully 90% of them had dates on them), put them in stacks according to the year, then finally slotted them into the albums again and labelled the cover of all the albums. It took us about 2 days to do all of that, the process was tedious but it wasn't mundane because those baby photos were seriously cute! :) My jie was such a poser when she was young hahaha, and I always cried when someone tried to take a photo of me. Thus she had like a thousand over baby/child photos of herself while I had much less. But now when we're all grown-up its the reverse~ So ironic right? I'm the poser now while she doesn't like taking photos much lol.

My parents also bought us two cakes every birthday - one to bring to kindergarden and one to celebrate at home. And they weren't just normal cakes ... they were seriously lavish. One year I had a ginormous train-shaped cake, the next year I had a beach-themed cake with the blue sea and white sand. Haha while looking through the photos I also recalled being envious of my kindy classmate Claire, who had the same birthday as me. Her cakes were always 10 times larger than mine and so much more colourful. One of those years she had a castle cake and from the photos I didn't look too happy. Haha that was so sillyyyyyy! What a waste of money though, I never remembered that I had 2 cakes until I saw these photos. Anyway now I don't really give a crap about my birthday anymore cause everyday's my birthday MWAHAHAHAHA. :)

Life seemed so interesting then, it was the era before most households had computers but our daily lives were much more colourful than now. Now, everyone's so busy with their own affairs and all we do is just stare at computer screens. Sad but true.

I really miss those childhood days with my ah ma and er gu too and the random stuff I did with my jie like using mattresses as slides and trying to lion dance with the blanket. hahaha

Anyway, if I feel less lazy tomorrow I might post up one or two of the photosss.

Been really tired recently cause I've been doing springcleaning and I'm not even done with half the house!! Argh.

Happy 冬至 everyone, I ate lots of tangyuan this afternoon hahaha. It's my first time making them! Taste so much better than those frozen ones from the supermarkets. :)

Oh and Gloria I got your christmas card today!!! I like it heaps!! Thank you! :)

Catchups

2010-12-18T23:00:00.003+08:00

Been spending more time with The Family these few days so I actually have less time to come online and update. :)

Wednesday: Met fifi finally after so long and we had so much fun taking photos which will last us a year. Had koi passionfruit aiyu bubble tea but I think I like koi's milk tea more! Took photos for 4 hours consecutively which left me totally exhausted when I got home hahaha. (+ got lost at orchard trying to find the bus stop) And editing all those photos took me a wholeeeee day mannn. HAHA. WE NEED MORE SESSIONS LIKE THIS!
Thursday: Met up with sec school friends and we had lunch at Strictly Pancakes. Oh gosh, its been forever since I've had pancakes and that day I had a total pancake overload. Their pancakes tasted really goood though. Haha. After that we watched Rapunzel: A Tangled Tale, which honestly, was rather predictable and cheesy. Hahaha. But I found the horse Maximus interesting hahaha. It's been AGES since I last watched a movie at a cinema ... the last movie I watched was 2012 and it's been nearly exactly a year! It was nice to meet up with everyone though. Thank you to Judi who knitted a pencil for me! Though on a closer look it looks like a tampon...HAHA! Gloria made chocolate cupcakes for PJ, they looked really yum! Unfortunately I was too full and didn't eat one. Oh and Rebecca's brown hair was really epic!!! I had a mild shock when I saw her.

Hmm that's about it these few days, maybe more meetups next week! Oh school is starting soon, my holidays are ending soon! :(:( NOOOOO!

I want to go on a holiday too! :(

2010-12-14T11:24:00.003+08:00

I'm a bit overwhelmed cause many of my overseas friends are going to/planning to come to/already in sg. And I don't understand why haha. As I scroll through my fb homepage scavaging for some scraps of gossip, I chance upon their status updates like, "In Singapore already!" or "Going to Singapore in xx days!". LOL. Shitz and the next thing I know is an offline conversation pops up when I log into msn.

"Hey I'm coming to sg on xxth, are you free to catch up?"

I received one from this girl whom I'm not very close to, we met at fy and happened to take the same degree course the next year. I've never had a conversation with her for more than 5 minutes, so I'm wondering what is there to catch up.

Honestly, I'm quite tired of 'catch ups' already, I only want to meet the people I want to meet!!

Plus, I dont get what is there to see in sg ... err maybe the MBS? Or Sentosa? Or perhaps, Chinatown?! Haha but whatever, its good to see a strong tourism industry in sg.

Anw here is a photo of me being ~~touristy~~ retarded @ Singapore Zoo! XD

My exams ended on a horrible note a few days ago. 医古文 exam went badly, I couldn't answer almost the whole section of 词意辨析. :( Obviously I'm very bad at 文言文... Sian, I haven't like done this badly for any paper in years and my parents were obviously quite concerned when I told them I couldn't answer a huge number of questions. As long as I pass I'll be satisfied!! The questions of the 词意辨析 section were like they gave you a phrase and bracketed up a word in the phrase and you have to give the modern meaning of it. ASDKJHASKDHAKDHAKHDAKSDHHAJSHDADGAHJDGA FAIL.

I forecast this week to be a tiring week (was originally my rest week), as an overseas friend suddenly told me yesterday she was coming over ... Will be busy for the next 4 days or so.

Yay Life

2010-12-01T16:11:00.004+08:00

I feel as if my exams are over already; certainly not, I have one more paper on Friday. I felt such immense relief when I handed in my anatomy exam paper and walked out of the room with light steps knowing that I will pass. Yay.

These few days have been intense. Studying, revising, memorizing, regurgitating info, the cycle repeats. I was EXTREMELY worried for anatomy, it seemed that whatever I study just goes out of my head after 5 minutes. I was on the brink of tears the night (morning) before, staying up till 2 am just to memorize the 7 diagrams on the brain arteries, skeleton, heart, lungs, lower body veins and the 10 essay questions. And today's paper only had 1 diagram we had to label, it was about the arteries on the underside of the brain (the lecturer promised 2?!) and the pic was really different from the one in the textbook. Haha I totally screwed up that question but I think I'll still passssssss :)

Diagnosis exam the day before was alright too, just some minor hiccups during the exam when I suddenly forgot what is the cause for 滑脉. Omg. I really couldn't recall at that moment so I guessed that it's water-related or some sort. Hahahaha. After the exam I　checked immediately and I was half-right!! LUckyy.

So today is rest day for me, I came home and watched 2 episodes of Running Man!!! SO HAPPY. I haven't watched anything in days really. And tonight we are having some nice dinner outside so only tomorrow will I start revision for the last paper!! MWAHAHA.

2010-11-23T15:45:00.004+08:00

I think I'm quite hopeless at 医古文 because 1) I can never seem to understand 使动功能，意动功能 and all those technical stuff used to analyse such passages and 2) wah lau the passages are so hard to understand can! yeaaaa my chinese is THAT　bad ... I really hope I can pass this paper!!! Right I'm super pathetic now I'm even struggling to pass my subjects. Ha.

Was wondering if I should ask my classmates for help ... guess not, they are probably stressing over anatomy or some other stuff. Ok, shan't bother them!

Yesterday I happen to chance upon this page which was posted by a friend on fb and OMG it was this self-cam video by this chinese lady who killed a rabbit (pet rabbit?) by stepping on it with high heels. OMG SICK. I didn't watch the video though because I don't want those images to be stuck in my head .... I merely just scrolled through the screencaps (quickly) and it was so gory! Was rather traumatized and shocked for the rest of the night and felt somewhat nauseous too....... how can someone be so cruel?! The poor bunny must have felt so much pain ... words cannot describe the pain ... its spinal cord and organs crushed ..... OKAY NOT GOING INTO FURTHER DETAILS this is pretty sick. I can't believe such cruelty exists in the world.　:(

Random

2010-11-19T11:21:00.003+08:00

Haha I haven't stepped out of the house for 6 days!! And I feel like I'm going to die if I don't get out sooner or later. Food stocks are running low so I guess I'm going grocery shopping this afternoon!!! Sian study break is so mundane and boring, I really have enough of studying already. I'm so happy I finished reading through the anatomy textbook (the first time), I spent a week just doing this, so productive right?? Today I shall look some of the diagrams, omg this exam we have a section on labelling parts and and and we have essay questions that are worth 10 marks each! I'm super worried for anatomy la, even more this time cause it's not just pure mcq anymore .... Best la I still got 2 other subjects to juggle. ><

On a happier note, fifi is coming back tomorrow!!!! I'm so excited and I really want to meet her asap!!!!! I was thinking next week, but my study progress isn't going too well and I really need all the time available ... NEVERMIND after exams we can meet up everyday wahahahahhaa :D

Can't wait for this to be overrrrrrrrrr.

An Ominous Feeling

2010-11-14T21:30:00.004+08:00

Study break has started. And really, I haven't studied much! I *tried* my best to read the anatomy textbook ... but omg, look at all that content! And futhermore its ALL in chinese! I've got no qualms with studying the other modules in chinese but anatomy is so...SKDFJAHKSFFDKSHFivegotnoideawhatisgoingon. I should blame myself for dozing off in every anatomy lecture :( I struggled reading through each page of the chapter on the Nervous System, trying to grasp the gist of it. What I got in return was much confusion with the hundreds of anatomy terms and a huge headache. I shut the textbook and went online to watch RUNNING MAN. HAHA I LOVE THAT SHOW. It's superbly funny and a great way to destress! Oh I wish I was one of the guests on that show; I would love to be trapped in a huge shopping mall or a stadium with a 44,000 seating capacity overnight for 17 hours and play the games they do! Especially the phototaking game which was daebak!! Aww but they removed it after the first 2 episodes..

Okayy I'm going to push the blame to fifi who intro-ed me to this show. ^^ Her exams are over already but mine aren't!!!!! Oh gosh I got the feeling that I might flunk my anatomy exam. Nooooo I don't want to retake the exam next semester!! Once is enough tyvm..

Okay back to the textbook. Diagnosis textbook.

我们不能时时在身边
好像电话简讯也没有了
我们不能第一时间分享彼此的快乐与不快乐
好像变的冷漠沉默了
我们不能再一起去吃饭一起说说笑笑
好像走出彼此的世界了
我们不能一起考试一起努力一起奋鬥
好像现在已经完全脱离过去了
我们不再有小矛盾也不再笑的那麽肆无忌惮
好像身边少了一些什麽但也不那麽重要了
我们不能一起犯错一起哭
好像那只属於过去的不成熟
好像青葱岁月只留下斑驳的记忆

我们都有了新的生活
新的环境新的朋友
我们都在面对新的事
新的人陪在我们身边
分享著我们的喜怒哀乐

有时候也会想起
想起曾经的我们
有时候一个小物品就会勾起一大串一大串的回忆
关於你
关於我们
甚至连那一句话都记得清楚
当时的笑当时的闹

时间改变了什麽
其实什麽都没有
时间让我们从过去到现在
冲淡的是回忆带不走的也是回忆

亲爱的你们
感激遇到你
陪我走过那一段长长的路

那时的我
幼稚不成熟
那时的我
遇到一个又一个坎
是你们陪我成长
没有丢下我
如今
大家都在不同的地方
不同的环境
渐渐地
渐渐地
不再联系

但网志的每一次更新
相簿的每一次更改
状态的每一个变动
都牵动著彼此的心

因为这样
我就知道
远方的你们
好或不好
快乐或不快乐

原谅
不能时刻陪伴
原谅
那份感情不再浓烈
原谅
或许偶尔想起会感觉孤单

如果有一天
我们再遇见
朋友们
好哥们
好姐们
同桌的你
那当初的一切不会变

谨以此文献给不在身边的你们
复刻青春的回忆
陪我牵手走过的路不会忘记!
有一种感情，不再浓烈，却一直存在!

Love Mushrooms

2010-11-08T23:04:00.003+08:00

Finally had the hothothotpot lunch today, after 2 months of talk. Went to The Mushroom Pot at OG, it was my first time there and probably will be my last time too. Even though the food and service was good, I'd actually rather have hotpot at home! It was a buffet kind of thing, where you can order unlimited amount of food. I really really liked their starters!! But you can only 5 plates for the whole table. The crispy fried mushroom was heavenlyyyyyy!! XD (see above pic)

The guys really enjoyed their meat and even ordered 5 plates of pork slices. LOL. The mushroom soup was really yummy and herby hehe!!

SUPER FULL and SATISFIED! Mich looking pretty behind~
I think it was rather pricey though, each person paid $23.60 with a 10% service charge.

ANYWAY. I WANNA SAY ALL THE BEST TO THOSE TAKING THE A LEVELS!! GOGOGO~

HEHE IF YOU GUYS DO WELL JIEJIE GIVE YOU A REWARD/TREAT OK!

If you didn't do as well as you expected also nvm, got consolation treat. ^^

GOOD LUCK. :D

P/S: ... what's with the sudden influx of random spam on the tagboard? o.o

星星代表的希望?

2010-11-05T22:17:00.005+08:00

无意间发现了一个很漂亮的星星!
我赶紧地把它拍下来了

最近生活很平静，我其实还蛮喜欢的
算起来，我休学已经快4个月了
哇时间过得飞快啊
很多人开始问我会不会复学
答案呢..我还不知道，我真的真的需要慎重考虑这个问题
对于这件事，我觉得并没有一定的对或错
只是...我最终想得到什么呢?
如果放弃了复学的机会，我可能会后悔一辈子，又或许5年后拿到了中医学位我会庆幸没有多浪费3年也说不定
我总是在回避这件事...逃避现实
我无法下决定...因为我害怕...害怕我选择错了
讨厌自己的优柔寡断。

From drama to revision

2010-11-03T21:27:00.002+08:00

My fav korean drama of the year Sungkyunkwan Scandal ended last night! :(:(:(:(:( Major sadness!

I have grown to love all the characters in it, good or evil, main or secondary. Other than the main coupling, I actually fervently looked forward to seeing more of the Guh-ro and Yeo-rim bromance (brotherly romance). Haha I was never a fan of yaoi stuff ... but their interactions are always so cute! And fanfics with this coupling have started popping up already ...

EVIDENCE!!

From here
I loved this drama because the historical parts were woven in beautifully with the romance bits. And I learnt quite a bit about Korean history lol. AHHHHHHHH but at the last 7 minutes of the show (n years later), why is seonjoon the only one spotting a moustache?! Assuming they are all of the same/similar age. *MAJOR FAN RAGE*

Tuesdays and Wednesdays were the happiest days of the week, because whenever I got home from school the episode aired the day before would be waiting for me, subbed fully. BUT NOW I HAVE NOTHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO. The rest of the week was spent searching up SKKS interviews, recaps written by others and rewatching episodes. LOL I'M QUITE SAD RIGHT. I even watched the live broadcasts though I never understood wth they were saying.

Today I had no class, friday's a PH, I have no classes next monday and wednesday either and next friday's the start of our stuvac. Stuvac is 17 days, lol the school is soooo kind. I wonder if I should draw up a study timetable! HAHA but from past experiences they never work out...

So yes I've been making small progress in revision. TODAY I FINISHED READING THROUGH THE CIRCULATION SYSTEM!! :) What a progress so proud of myself lol.

ANW sidetrack I found a reallllllyyyy pretty wallpaper made by a fellow SKKS fan!

Think.

Hazy Days

2010-10-22T22:11:00.005+08:00

It's been 2 weeks since we've started on 诊断学 (Diagnosis) and the drop in the number of people attending the lectures is rather obvious. I find the content so dry and there's so much to remember.. all the symptoms and whatnot. Like this type of tongue = this type of illness etcetc. Lol, I don't see how I'm going to pull through the december exams..!! We have diagnosis lectures 3 times a week, 3 hours each time. :\ Today I fell asleep and I even drooled. HAHA OMG. Anyway Anatomy is not going too well either. I'm lagging waaaayy behind. Yesterday I found out, to my horror, that the final exam for Anatomy includes stuff that we actually have to WRITE: terms we have to define and essay questions we have to discuss. Shyt much? I scraped past the previous test cause the questions were just multiple choice. I guess this time I will have to work extra extra hard :(

Yesterday Michelle made really yum chocolate chip cookies for our group! :D 2 cookies for everyone, with our initials on them! KEKEKE! But my 'M' was super small compared to the rest leh...　(and so little choco too!) *grumbles*

One big one small + our greedy looks!

Been living in the past

2010-10-21T21:49:00.001+08:00

Been seriously addicted to this korean drama called Sungkyunkwan Scandal (SKKS), which was highly recommended by Lauren. It's soo goooooood I've been watching for hours everyday till now my eyes are hurting quite a bit from staring at the screen continuously.

SKKS ♥
I think my classmates are getting really sick of listening to me talking about it. lol

I've realised I really like girl-dresses-as-boy stories quite a lot.

Self-proclaimed long weekend

2010-10-15T16:08:00.000+08:00

Decided to skip class today because I still am not feeling too well at all. My left ear is partially blocked and whenever I blow my nose there's a sharp pain inside the ear. :( I freaked out this morning because of that thinking I was going deaf soon and googled "sharp pain when blowing nose" at 3 am. Turns out that it's a symptom of common colds. I told my mum about this and expected some caring words from her but she told me "who ask you to blow your nose so hard? huh!" She could have been a leeeetle nicer to the patient you know ...

I'm still feeling a dizzy too, whenever I get up and walk around my head feels light. The worse thing is that yesterday I did my exam in this sickly (or even worse) condition! I had a realllly bad headache and my damn brain wasn't functioning normally. My nose was dripping and I was making all these snuffling, sniffling and awkward squeaking noises throughout the whole time. All I wanted was to finish and get home asap. I completed in half the time available cause it was getting unbearable - my forehead started getting REALLY hot, and my hands really cold. For those questions I wasn't too sure, I just randomly shaded some answer without thinking for too long. HAHA. A pass is good enough for me. ^^ When I finally shaded the 150th answer, I went back and check if I had shaded everything correctly. AND GUESS WHAT. I found out that I had missed out shading question 80! OMG. So from 81 to 150 everything was wronngngngngngngn andandand the best part is I didn't even realise it when I had shaded into the question 151 bubble!! :O

FFFFFFFFFF I erased everything from 81 to 151 (lol wth) and re-shaded the answers one by one, this time patiently and carefully. *SIGH* I think the fever fried my brain…

Yay fer now I can relax for a bit. Yeah! Before the next series of exams which are in about 45 days …? HOW COME MY SEMESTER IS SOOOOOOOOO DARN LONG? HUH! I started earlier than the Sydney peoples but I’m ended a month later! WTH! :(

Exactly 10 days to TP test.

STRESS AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

It made my day

2010-10-06T16:21:00.002+08:00

Someone said something that offended me early this morning. And so I was in a bad mood.

During break time I went and bought BUBBLE TEA from KOI CAFE from the nearby HDB Hub. Since yesterday I had been thinking and craving for bubble tea!!! I ordered $2.40 red milk tea with pearls, with 70% sugar (it was still a tad too sweet for me). Eh the pearls were much smaller than the normal ones. But to my surprise they tasted much better than the bigger ones! And the milk tea was so smooth and yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! :)

My mood changed for the better, I forgave him and remained happy for the rest of the day! ^^

A happy fat me
EH I NEED TO TRY THEIR PASSIONFRUIT FLAVOUR TEA!

最近大家貌似都很忙
考试的考试
工作的工作
搞得我一副很闲的样子
........

14/10我又要考试了
这次考中医基础理论学II
考试范围有：经络，体质，病因，病机，养生与防治
还好都是选择题呵呵
我已经习惯教中基II的敖教授的教法
可是他从来都不笑!
莫非就是传说中的poker face?
教中基I的潘毅老师比较有幽默感呢
潘教授是很有性格的一个老师
而且对中西医有很独特的见解
对课本也是!!
他常常会说课本那一句写得不恰当
但是最后他说了"每次批评课本，我都有点不好意思了"
哈哈
我很喜欢上医古文的课，上这堂课时时间过得特别快
喜欢听老师讲那些历史的故事呵呵
但是看到医古文的作业我就头痛! ><

好了最近我增肥了
BAD　NEWS

Us Five

2010-09-27T15:10:00.004+08:00

Meeting up with my secondary school best friends on tuesday was the highlight of this week! Shirleen, Peijin, Gloria, Judi - love them to cookie bits and pieces!! ♥

After class I rushed off and bought a chocolate cake. I REALLY wanted to get the chocolate mint one cause it was smaller than others but I vaguely remembered Judi's dislike for mints/peppermints. Ended up buying a chocolate fudge cake cause the shop assistant couldn't understand what I said when I asked her if the black forest cake she had on display was made of dark chocolate...

"Excuse me, is this black forest cake made from dark chocolate?"

-Throws me a blank look-

-Repeats question-

"Oh this one? 20 dollars."

......................

The cake box was put into a hot pink bag to my delight. It matched with my hot pink top and pink bag and raspberry- coloured shoes. HAHA.

Met the rest at Orchard Central where we ate at Quiznos! Hmm I like its sub better than Subway though the preparation time is waaaayyy longer than Subway's. Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of it cause I was toooooo hungry.

After that we went to kbox, much to Judi's dismay. This time we were successful in dragging her there!!! :):):) We celebrated our (Gloria and I) belated birthdays and ate cake. I think everyone was too full from lunch but I was still hungry. *Coughcoughcough* I ate about 1/3 of the cake ...

It seems like I was the one singing most of the time. EH Judi was being all shy, so unlike her usual self. Oh man, I was totally exhausted after that 2.5 hour session. Talk about being old and having less stamina.

After everything ended, I had a long walk with Gloria to our bus stop. It was longer than I had expected! >< But it was good cause we talked and caught up quite a bit. :)

HAPPY FAMILY! ^^
This December we have to meet up again! When everyone's done with their A Levels and poly exams! Hehe we shall drag Judi to kbox again!! After all, we've applied for the membership card already. HAHA.

Yay, Tuesday was great!!

I hate it how everyone is moving on, while I'm still looking back.

srsly.

Full Moon

2010-09-22T22:57:00.001+08:00

Happy Mid-Autumn Fes everyone!! :)

The moon is REALLY round tonight! Oh you know I just found out for the first time in my life why you shouldn't point at the moon. Many people say its because you will get a cut behind your ear for doing so. OH NO IS THAT TRUE? CAUSE I JUST POINTED AT THE FULL MOON AND MY MUM TOLD ME OFF FOR DOING SO. ><

Argh. Anyway I went back to the moon after and told her sincerely that I was sorry. XDDD

Don't cut my ear tonight ya ...

Last Saturday was my cousin's wedding dinner. Food was really good though portions were kind of small? Dinner only started at 2030 when the card clearly stated 1930. :\ Poor me waited and waited fer so long till gastric pain developed YET AGAIN. And the food didn't help to relieve it after either. From 1930 to about 2300 my insides were writhing in pain while I was forced to maintain this smile on my face. At least those random relatives at my table were more interested in my cousin's (another one) 10 year old daughter than me. You know how old people like young children? Yup. I'm totally past that age now...!

Anyway, all the best to the newlywed couple. :) They look great together!

The next day I helped out at my school's Mid-Autumn/Teacher's Day celebrations. Honestly, I wouldn't have gone. But Michelle texted me personally so I thought I should be nice! ^^ We were ushers that night and also crowd controllers. LOL. We 'guarded' the buffet table and made sure there was ORDER. *cough**cough*

While I was helping out in the scooping of the desert, there was this really cute little kid who kept circling around me. Lol he was too shy to ask for some. Kekeke~ His mum (my classmate) came, I　gave him some desert and she nudged him to say "谢谢阿姨" to me. I gave a SOFT glare (oxymoron much?) and muttered an audible "姐姐". OF COURSE MUST CALL ME JIEJIE. I'm not at the auntie age yet. :)

OOO WE FOUND CAKE!
The catered food was seriously good. The BEE HOON and FRIED RICE and TOFU. Omg I went for second and third helpings! HAHA. Okay glutton me. Hmm the cake looked really good too! XDD

I skipped all the performances and went straight home after the meal. It was so tiring but then again it was fun! :)

Oh happy mooncake festival!!

Craving satisfied!

2010-09-18T15:47:00.005+08:00

Belated birthday lunch ♥
MMMMMMMMMMMMM... I ATE SO MUCH FOR LUNCH YESTERDAY!!! (As seen from above)

I was STARVING after class and thought there was a pastamania at tpy hub. Found out that it closed down ages ago. Trained to ps; by that time I was soo hungry!

Everything on the menu looked sooo good but I decided on a mushroomy pasta and cheesy pizza.

Pasta was yummy and so was pizza!! Xinyi dear was so nice to shout me lunch!! Lovelove! :D

Next time I'll shout her lunch tooo~

After that we went to Spotlight to buy ribbons. Oh my ... I love that place so much especially it's handmade craft section!!!! And it had ALL TYPES of pretty ribbons there!! I bought one metre of a silver one and a blue/green one to make a birthday card~

Checking out all the different coloured yarn. If only I knew how to knit ..
Later in the evening I'm going to attend my cousin's (whom I have never seen before) wedding dinner, tomorrow night is my school's mid-autumn festival night (was dragged by the clique to go). Monday arvo I have a driving lesson, Tuesday is Gloria's birthday lunch and Thursday arvo is study group meeting. BUSYYYYY :(

2010-09-13T17:38:00.002+08:00

I've got KAT-TUN's Love yourself ～君が嫌いな君が好き～ single stuck in my head, the result of going on this jdorama marathon during the weekend. I finished watching Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge ... what a mouthful - let's call it by its english name THE WALLFLOWER. It's a romantic comedy drama, my fav genre!! It was adapted from the manga The Wallflower. Okay, I don't read manga or watch anime ... COZ I LOVE LIVE ACTION! And plus the lead actor is Kazuya Kamenashi ~ how could I miss out on this jdorama? XD

Takano Kyohei (Kyohei is his first name) is blessed with good looks but he constantly gets mobbed by fangirls and the restaurant manager where he works part-time at sexually harasses him. He lives at a boarding house with his 3 other ikemen friends Takanaga, Yukinojo and Ranmaru. (Ikemen = good-looking man) One day, their landlady proposes to them that if they can turn her niece Sunako into a lady, they will get free lodging till they graduate from college! Oh, how niceeeee.

Rent-free boarding and lodging in a huge mansion - WHY NOT? And so they agree to it readily.

Mmmm... 4 3 cuties under one roof.
Ahahaha but they didn't expect the unexpected!

The person they had to make-over turns out to be a gloomy, weird girl who has long bangs that covers her face. She is a horror movie maniac and her room is decorated with skulls and specimens of dead animals. SPOOKY OR NOT. She even sleeps in a coffin at night ..........

I cracked up when she first appeared lol.

Aaaaand this begins their communal life together.

They find out she's a reaaally good cook. On the other hand, she calls them 'dazzling creatures' but gradually as the show progresses Kyohei remains as the only 'bright' creature to her. They get to know the reason for her spookiness - a boy whom she loved in high school told her she was ugly.

AND it's totally amusing whenever Kyohei calls her Busunako (= ugly Sunako) to get her riled up so that she can help with the fighting. I seriously loooveeee how Kyohei exploits her weaknesses. XD

"You'll always be missing one syllabus in your name! It's not SUNAKO - IT'S BU-SUNAKO! BUSUNAKOBUSUNAKOBUSUNAKOBUSUNAKOBUSUNAKO!!"

RAWRRRRRR. The skies turn dark, radical lightning fills the air and Sunako turns into a fighting machine.

HAHAHAHA

10 episodes was a good length. The only thing that I felt needed more improvement was that they should have brought more of the scenes to the college! In the manga Sunako went to college with them but in this drama she was more like a housemaid ...

But anyway I love this jdorama as it is! And I'm glad Sunako still remains as who she is. :)

Thank you.

THANK YOU SO MUCH HANNAH NAM AND LILY YAM FOR THE AIRFLOWN PARCEL! ♥♥

Hai everyone. It's been long. This week has been such a tiring and busy one for me! I had two school exams and today I passed my FTT!! YAY. I've booked my TP test; it's at the END OF OCTOBER!!! Which is very very soon. I'm excited! Yet at the same time, nervous. Hehehe.

Tomorrow is a public holiday - Hari Raya Puasa. YAY WHICH MEANS NO LESSONS ESP. NO HISTORY LESSONS omgi'msupergladforthat.

I shall have a niceeeeeee long weekend this week ... who is free next week?? I'm dying to go for a K session and have some pasta. :D

Words cannot express how deeply moved I am.
I wasn't forgotten after all :)

I feel loved :)

2010-09-01T14:28:00.003+08:00

I walked into the room, a mysterious white envelope lay sitting quietly on the glass table. When I reached down and picked it up, I discovered that it was a letter from overseas. It was weather-beaten, crumpled, the $1.45 AUSTRALIA stamp was carelessly pasted and the recepient's address was written out in that familiar scrawl. Smiling to myself knowingly, I precariously opened the envelope, anticipating the contents that awaited for me inside. Out of the envelope I took a foolscap paper folded into three. I opened it and smoothed it out on the table. It read，

欣敏：
去年在Unilodge一帮同学和你一起迎接十八岁. 眨眼间一年又过去了...

Which reminded me how times flies, how time and tide do not wait and how fast I'm growing old ...

Thank you sam for the letter! It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! :):):)

Once again, I had a great 19th birthday! Thanks for all the well wishes! :)

Michelle and Peier got me a huge rectangular vanilla cream cake! And I shared it with the whole class. Sadly, I forgot to take photos of it and the only photo of it came out really badly. >< So ... use your imagination XD

Oh!! And they also bought me an ORANGE long hoody shirt! ♥ They totally know my style~

AND!! A super super super cute card drawn by one of my classmates. SHE'S SO TALENTED OMG. :O

The other time she drew one for Minggen; it totally resembled him!

Anyway exams are next week ... CAN'T WAIT TO MEET THEM!

... HELP I'M DROWNING IN A POOL OF ANATOMY TERMS !!

Off to Pulau Ubin~

First time to Pulau Ubin in my entire life lol

Googled Pulau Ubin and I found out that it literally means Granite Island in Malay. Pulau = island and Ubin = Granite. Interesting ...

It was rather quiet and scenic. Lots of tourists though.

最近没有什么特别的事
平平静静过生活
其实今天为了一些生活杂事
心里面有一点点的难过
但我还是必须往~前~看~
下个月有两个考试-正常人体解剖学和中医基础理论
完了完了
对这两科好像没有什么信心
oh no
昨天我有开始读解剖的课本
开始背什么骨呀这类的
背到要吐了
zzz
还有即将来临的是9月9号的Final Theory Test
过后就是正式的驾驶考试~~
我要一.次.PASS!!
这是我给自己定的目标!

说到这边让我想起上周的驾驶课
这次不知道为什么那么倒霉
遇到超不讲理的年轻教练
一整堂课板着脸好像我欠他什么
然后什么也没教我
只顾着吃糖+照镜子摸刘海并角= =
当天下雨所以天很暗他竟然还带着墨镜...
耍什么帅
当我U-turn的时候判断出错
他很生气地凶我..
是他没有注意看我在干嘛的ok = =
...一直照镜子自恋
是啦我也有错可是他也不用这么激动?!
说也奇怪
最后十分钟他突然对我很nice...
过后我在等公车的时候看到他跟他女朋友
一前一后的
女朋友跟在后面他走前面
一副不理她的样子 -_-
ok 可能是吵架了心情不好
把我当出气筒?!
anyway希望我再也不会遇到他
还是喜欢比较老但经验丰富的教练..

最近听说诈欺游戏2的电影要进这里的电影院了
我上个月在飞机上看到一半
很可惜没有看完!
想上网看可是就是找不到!
很好看呢
本人极力推荐~

happy birthday singapore?

Initially reluctant to write about anything, reading sam's blog post made me feel like I should. Yesterday was national day (哇屋, public holiday!!) and everyone was decked out in flag colours, red & white except me. I don't know if this was true (of everyone's fashion ytd), but I was home the whole day, dying from the heat and boredom. Tried attempting the meagre amount of homework I have, but gave up. Tried reading the textbooks but got distracted. Tried watching videos and got hooked. :D

Even sam who's not a singaporean, watched the national day parade broadcast live from sydney. And I didn't. Sorry, I know I lack patriotism...

I reckon I shouldn't be allowed to stay at home too long without meeting people, cause when that happens I start thinking about the past too much and worrying about the future and subsequently allow myself to sink into another emo phase ......

Anyway. Today I was so tired in class, I couldn't absorb anything. 医古文 lecture was something about sentence structure of ancient writings and all that stuff. I SHOULD read the textbook, but really, I can't muster enough concentration to do so. Maybe next week? ;)

Life has been quiet and I miss those noisy days a lot.

School has been mundane, but I think I'm getting closer to my classmates! Minggen's birthday is next wednesday and we're going to give him a surprise!! Hahahaha.

Yesterday I finished writing the 2000 word essay on why I chose to study tcm - its such an accomplishment!! Typed it up first, then copied it onto paper, which took so long! I felt like I was back in secondary school writing zuowen and bao zhang bao dao although my chinese writing is really rusty now. :(

Yay next monday is a public holiday - National Day!! It was so cute when our clique greeted each other with "国庆日快乐!" :)

Haha okay I should really start putting my mind on my studies ...

technology has removed the distance between us;
but why I do feel like I'm getting more & more distant from all of you?

Not going back for the time being, I guess.

On Friday we split into study groups of 6 or 7. We have 6 in a group and are dubbed as the "Young Group". Our oldest is 28, youngest is 18 (who else but me..) and the average age is 22! Eh, but when it comes to study we're at a disadvantage. Should have roped in one of those professionals who can guide us in tcm study....

I feel so small here, in terms of age and experience. Which is a good humbling experience for me as I know that I have a lot to learn from my classmates. They may be much older, but they have so much more wisdom and so much more knowledge of tcm than me. I'm constantly feeling lost in lectures or frequently switching off. And I stone while the people around me vigorously jot down notes..

Today fifi mentioned about birthdays and suddenly I felt this tinge of sadness ... which subsquently turned into another bout of emoing. It's going to be a quiet 19th for me this year I guess. If only I was there; daffodil day coincides with my birthday this year! :)

Daffodils are so prettyyyy ♥

It's August already the air smells of Autumn!

Miss you all who are in Sydney.

老实说吧

我不快乐
我很不快乐
天天面对着中文课本
看着上关节面横突棘突这些名词让我感到很烦
医学史就更不用提了

几次我很想把行李收拾了然后飞回悉尼
一走了之

今天我对爸妈说
我要回去
他们很体谅我很接受我的想法
妈妈便上网帮我订明天的机票
可是在最后一分钟我阻止她了

对
我很喜欢我读的Medical Science
我很舍不得那边的朋友们
可是三年后我该做什么？
我毕业了穿过毕业礼服了有文凭了
so what
还不是找不到工作

冲动 vs 理智
前几次理智胜出了
但是在我心里的最底层我还是想回去

最近我找不到读书的动力
回家后就是上网闲着
在课堂上就老是想着下课
懒懒散散的
:(

你说我该怎么办?

看吧，我可能在星期四之前赶回去...

第n回合:冲动 vs 理智...

I realised how much I love making wrong decisions, knowing so well I will regret doing so

Currently having no motivation at all to study

How has everyone been? Good? I've been studying hard, going to school, being a good girl :)

Yesterday I had 中医基础理论 lecture in the morning. I'm really really really looking forward to the next one!! I love his style of lecturing, he's so blunt, yet so funny. :D I struggled to understand during 正常人体解剖学 (anatomy) lecture after that really badly. All in chinese omgwthkillmenow... He kept talking about 上皮, which I found out was EPITHELIUM after I went home to translate all those foreign-looking terms. Now I know 上皮=epithelium 间皮=mesothelium 内皮=endothelium!!! Chinese anatomy terms are quite cute, actually. Hahaha. Also, today's 医古文 lesson left me amazed at how much meaning there is to every chinese character.

Lectures aside, I made 2 new friends, which are of my age!! Happy happy happy. A guy called 明根 and the girl called 芯仪. Honestly, I feel less lonely now, but I still miss my uni friends badly. :(

********************

Been taking driving lessons at a certain driving centre, I've been assigned the Honda Jazz every lesson so far and I think it will stay like that even for the test.

Just last week during my first lesson, I was in the circuit - the instructor wouldn't let me out to the main road no matter how much I pleaded akdhkhdfskdf. Bored me to death. Went round and round like n times omg. At least something rather interesting happened ... my instructor told me there was a channel 8 actor in the circuit learning how to ride the bike. Obviously that raised my interest, so I asked, "WHICH NUMBER??" (Bike learners wear this vest with a number on it)

"SEVEN." SO THE SEARCH STARTS. About 2 minutes later, I brake suddenly, the car jerks forward ... "Na bian (over there)!!x2 Seven!!!" Hahaha omg I saw the actor (let's call him H) ... I saw H with a really serious expression, trying hard to control the bike hehehehe. Oh poor thing, he lost all his privacy as an actor.

Today I went for another session. This time I was randomly allocated to another instructor, who was a replacement for the instructor I was initially supposed to have that day. ANYWAY, point is, the minute he came and found out I was learning auto, he said, "Sian la, teach auto. I usually teach manual one leh." Wth, it's not my fault!!! :(

Okay anyway he let me drive out onto the main road (forgave him for his previous crime), but then he started whining about how scared he was cause I was driving and it was raining heavily. Oh cut the act out la. = = You're a driving instructor, and he has the other damn brake! What's there to be scared of?!

I kept rather quiet for the first 20 minutes or so, cause I didn't want to entertain him anymore. But he just kept going. "Wahhh raining so heavily, how to go home later.." Okay so I was nice and replied, "Don't worry, it will stop soon." HE CONTINUED, "HUH what if it doesn't stop?? Then I'll have to pick my mother up ..." yadda yadda, he talked non-stop I got annoyed. OMG. So I started giving monosyllabic answers. After 5 minutes he had another complain - "After stop raining sure very hot one." OMG WHAT DO YOU WANT MISTER. = = First he complains it's raining, then he whines about the humidity after the rain stops. Oh gawd wth is this.

Along a straight and rather clear road with a speed limit of 70 km/h (was travelling at 60+) he started squealing and being gay. He goes, "my birthday is on AUGUST 9 I don't want to die!" WTH. And so I said, "MINE IS ON AUGUST 27 do you think I wanna die with you??!?!" = = I know he's just faking it.

As we drove past a driving range he goes ... "I haven't played golf for a long time." Oh how random ... (I can see that driving instructors are very bored)

Well after that I bargained with him to clear me on 3 subjects today. At first he said no he can only clear 2, I asked why and he told me about the politicking among the instructors. JUICY NEWS LOL. I never knew that existed - oh I'm so naive right...

After much bargaining I finally got my way YAY ^^ I seriously want to pass all the subjects and stages ASAP and sit for the test. Actually I'm rather thankful to him cause he might face some troubles - or "ARROWS" as he puts it.

Next lesson; my aim - 3 more subjects!! gogogo~

My holidays are over already!! :(:( The first and only lecture I had today was 中国医学史 discussing about the development of tcm in singapore. Tried killing time by texting people cause moving my hands will keep me awake. But I felt glares of disapproval coming from all sides of the lecture hall - was I thinking too much?

Felt totally out of place among all my classmates; some so aged that they can actually be my parents = = But it was a relief when I saw some younger people around ...

Judi's 18th celebration was held last Saturday! Met at somerset station but our plan nearly failed cause Judi arrived half an hour ealier than we told her to. AHEM. Lunch was at Marche, I thought the layout there was pretty unique though food was really pricey there ... We got Judi a cake, a chocolate mud cake which was so thick and huge. I loved the chocolate cake so much, really solid ♥ Hehehe I'm proud to say that I came up with the whole surprise, though it failed at the last minute cause pj couldn't get away from judi in time. LOL.

OO YUMMY :D

The birthday girl!

Preparing for the surprise~

Groupie photo ♥♥

Last Thursday me and fifi went to marina bay for sightseeing. Ohohoh singapore really has changed a lot! And I mean, A LOT. Seriously. Marina bay has become so different, the new features etc. WE HAD A GREAT TIME CAMWHORING HAHAHAHA. Like for every step we took, we took a photo. LOL. Okay la not that extreme but you get the idea!

Decision

2010-07-15T19:11:00.001+08:00

小时候因为种种原因我跟家人的关系疏远
曾经很叛逆
曾经很忧郁
这几年我们的关系进步了许多
这几天我感受到家人对我的爱
对我的无限付出
对我的体谅
爸爸妈妈姐姐
姐姐总是耐心地听我的心事
爸爸都会说一些很感性的话鼓励我给我力量
妈妈虽然说话很直很“恰北北”但是我知道她是为我好的
我知道无论我做出什么决定他们都会支持我
我今天已经决定了..

我会很想在悉尼的你们
缘蕙洁英莲希朱小骏谦和汉娜等
放假的时候我一定会飞去看你们！

明天第一堂课是中国医学史..
希望能找到跟我差不多大的同学!

:)

加油.

Look forward don't turn back
Work for the future don't dwell on the past

Full of wisdom

2010-07-03T21:56:00.002+08:00

3 days since I've returned home :)

Just extracted another wisdom tooth and it hurts sooo much. And it keeps bleeding!!! Look at my swollen cheek...........

Got 2 more extractions to go in future. AHHHHHHHHH~~

I wish I could turn back time ...

2010-06-29T18:02:00.005+08:00

I have no idea about what to write, but just doing it for the sake of doing so, I guess.

I have been thinking a lot about the future and my future, what I'm doing now and whether it is useful.

Honestly, I dread changes. Hate changes. Who doesnt?

As I pack my bags preparing to leave (for good maybe), events of the past 3 months flash in and out of my head. I regret not visiting the bay near where I live more, not spending enough time with my friends and studying so hard for this semester.

Everything has an end to it, I guess. I'm just sad that mine has to come earlier than others.

I'm happy to get to know each and every one of you. Really. Those past moments spent together will be cherished by me forever.

Apologies if I haven't told you personally. I just don't know how to, and I'm tired of explaining myself again and again.

I'm returning home - but why do I feel so sad?

The youthful side of me is up for a gamble, but the sensible half pulls me towards the path called MY FUTURE that I should begin heading down now.

After all, I'm not the one paying the school fees, eh?

Leaving Sydney with a heavy heart.

Days of Slacking

2010-06-24T09:27:00.003+08:00

Mmm days after the exams have been quiet, slow and boring. I feel so empty now and time seems to pass so slowly. A good thing is that I can catch up on sleep everyday; I spend half of the 24 hours sleeping daily and the other half is wasted on watching taiwanese dramas, surfing the net, country storying on facebook and eating.

My last paper was on monday - MATH1041, statistics. I didn't feel too confident about it before the exam and neither did I after. Blehzxzxc. WHATEVER. HAHA. AFTER THE PAPER me, kimkim, chekying, fifi and chris went to the city together for icecream lunch. :D We had the huge maxi icecream tower at french riviera at darling harbour. Sadly to say, we didn't finish it :( Ended up playing rock scissors paper to decide who eats. AND the unlucky me lost like 8 times in a row ....

That icey sugary sweetness left me feeling kinda weird in the stomach for the whole day (That night I had some really spicy curry for dinner ><). We roamed around the city and got fascinated with all that uber cute stuff at morning glory. Took photos lol. Then we got fifi an early 18th birthday present, a pink cap! kimkim and I thought of ways to make it a surprise gift but the other people were like oh just give it to her directly. omg such unfun people. = =

BTW. S KOREA IS INTO THE ROUND OF 16!!! HAHAHAHA. But they sure need all the luck against Uruguay....

Hmm today I should get out of the house and do some shopping :D

After the paper with kimkim whydoIlooksotiredhere

Iunno why I was so nervous for BABS paper today and struggled through the whole paper :\

Probably cause I was so scared the definitions would just fall out of my head at anytime..

It was a 2 hour paper but people starting walking out after an hour. Ohmygosh and I used the whole 2 hours!! What's wrong with me?

I hope I get the HD though, I really need/want it!!

Last paper (statistics) on monday!!!

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Which means semester one will be over officially and that is sad news.

Why is my uni life ending so quickly??

Love all my uni frenz I wanna be a uni student forever :D:D
