from the last time i blogged (which was april 7), many things have since happened, and many things changed.. for one, m2 pros have ended.. my whatever "break" has ended as well.. and csfc (clinical skills foundation course/elementary clinics/pre-clinics) has started..
i cant even remember what i did during the "break".. it was just too short! went shopping, slacked around a lot! and wow! after only 10 days or so, i started school again..
a week of csfc has passed.. and it has been tiring! tiring from all the standing up for hours on end during tutorials and/or ward rounds.. but i think i've learnt quite a bit this week! general history taking, cvs examination.. quite alright for a start (despite being lost in ttsh most of the time, not knowing what to do, and even ended up going over to novena square/velocity/square 2 one day!).. but i just hope that in the next 5 weeks that there will be less time wasting.. seriously, we spent more time this week waiting for things to start than actually having lects/tutorials.. haha.. i should start reading more Talley and O'conner in the next 5 weeks =/

oh no, what a seriously boring post!!

managed some shopping still despite the tiring week.. haha and i bought quite a fair bit of things.. there's sale cos of the Labour day i think! ;p

anyway, i really dislike people who are so arrogant, and think they know everything.. and always trying to impress other people.. hrmph!

i like night times..
somehow, with a quiet house, and nice music, the stress of the whole day just disappears.. things appear to move slower.. things starting to look happier.. even looking at a huge stack of notes still to be read, and the past year essay questions that seem un-doable, cant spoil the calmness of the night =)

the reality is that i have no time to finish studying.. hmm for the sake of the exams and for the sake of happier times in the future, i better stop living in my own world! and study and pass my exams!!

anyway, it was a great night that i had! =) went to the Pump room.. this place with cool optic fibre things.. the food was quite yummy! but april and i ordered some err not so great tasting thing ;p and the live band after that was really gd! haha the long-haired guy can really really really sing! he was absolutely great! i love his voice! =P mm and there was this tranny (we think) in the band who was quite huge, and looked like a ge-tai singer.. and most importantly, it was the company that was the greatest!! =) oh btw, yl drank a Waterfall ;p haha!
i promised not to post too many photos on my blog.. since -someone- says i always put fugly photos of people, and another -someone- says his face has too many pimples =P but anyway my laptop crashed, and i cant upload photos onto it.. so haha there wont be photos anytime soon i think ;p i'll blog about this night properly soon =)

i realise i miss you guys haha.. love you all! =)

shitty day =/ and not even half the day has passed.. maybe if i just stay curled up on my bed in my room for the rest of the day, nothing bad should and could happen....hopefully?
i merely just wanted to change my routine for -one- day, and shit happened..

im really unlucky with technologies these days.. and its not helping one bit given that exams are just around the corner.. (well, depends on how you look at this, really)
with a laptop that has most likely crashed! (there goes my songs, my tv shows, my pictures, my files.. i hope at least some are backed up already.. i doubt), and even more recently, a phone that has a shattered lcd screen.. (there goes more money, more inconvenience).. i should just live primitively for the next few days, in the age where technologies did not even exist.. and hopefully not die of boredom..

i actually decided that i didnt wanna blog for some time.. but after what has happened today, i decided that i need an avenue to rant.. this sucks.. bad things always happen at the worst times!

i wish a new phone would just drop right through my roof and land right next to me now..
*wishful thinking*

and maybe routines are just not meant to be changed..

=(

sian..
i have no idea what to study..

and im just typing another short, few-liners post cos im trying to get rid of some of the older posts, dont really wanna see some of the pictures that are on this main page..

--editted--
hmm i think the above statement sounds quite angsty.. haha just wanna clarify that i dont hate anyway btw! =)

some random thing since im so bored of studying.. apparently you can fool your proprioception, by making your muslces go into spasm! the book says you can stand next to a wall, and with one of the arm parallel to the wall (that means, not having to raise the arm), push hard against the wall for around 30seconds. and after that, when you look down at your arm, the arm would be above the position you thought it to be at!
haha i never tried it.. so i have no idea if it works ;p

am supposed to be reading schistosomes.. but just heard a couple of chinese songs which made me think back to the start of m2 thereabouts.. hmm, and its amazing how from 7 months ago till now, quite many things have changed.. i cant decide which i like better, then, or now.. but surely, i treasure everything that i have now.. and of cos, im glad to see my friends so happy too! haha hope you know im talking about you ;p

thats all i wanna say for now.. its back to the worms that live in the blood vessels that evade the immune system that causes swimmer's itch that..that..that.... ;p

amazing how small little things can make people happy..

for example
being excited because someone just sent u a new song that u really really want, and listening to it over and over again on repeat.. thanx girl ;p
talking about random things online..
talking about more random things on the phone..
watching a part of a brainless movie..

=)

the feeling of betrayal.
the sense of powerlessness in the face of authorities.

yah shit happens.. just rather unexpectedly.. totally unthinkable.. practically inconceivable..

who knows what goes on in the minds of others..
false pretences.. facades.. masquerade..

im disgusted!


and im fine..

im listening to the song in music and lyrics - way back into love. its very very nice =) listened to it for the first time today (after claire and fish both said the song is very nice).. and i know why after reading the lyrics ;p )

today was a day of 6 ugly betty episodes!! am rather appalled at myself! seriously! haha

Hazel's 21st birthday was on 21st march at her new condo! which was really far away..somewhere in the far west of bukit batok! haha
anyway, it was a fanciful hats party, as evident from the many many hats in the photo =)

Happy 21st Birthday hazel!! =P

a group photo of illuminators

hazel and everyone else ;p



more photos were taken at the party =)


oh this bottom left picture was of me teaching weili how to have slimmer looking faces in photos ;p
and yup, a nice traffic light colour of daryl, me, tzetong! =)

a shot of the girls (without the birthday girl) who was probably away, busy skyping with huichai? ;p


i conclude that i look terrible in hats actually! =/ haha


on fri night, we went city space.. the bar at equinox..

the photo on the left is the lighting at the bar which was quite nice!
and the drink is called equinox blue, which claire ordered.. haha and it looks nicer than it taste actually ;p

claire and i =)


an enjoyable night ;p
now its back to the books.. of which i fell asleep upon many many times today =/ and i should stop looking at random websites and blogs and concentrate on the notes.. no vivas no supps please! i wanna go for holiday =/
time to tell myself to study study study.. 2 more weeks only to pros! and then its a break! then CSFC.. mm im alright with my group! =) nice people.. and hopefully nicer time together for 6 weeks at ttsh =)

it was a day of 2 wrong bus stops and 4 scoops of ice cream..

i dont understand why bus signs are so unclear! there was 70# at the esplanade bus stop, but they freaking dont tell u what # stands for! am i suppose to know it?? later i found out that 70 does not go to that bus stop at the time i was at the bus stop! alright, so i started to walk.. and then at the suntec convention centre bus stop, the sign had 70 (without any # or any other symbols) next to it! so it made sense that 70 goes to that bus stop.. right?? cos i thought to myself that there wasnt any # (or any other symbols) next to the 70 number.. and there i was, waited stupidly for 20mins, before realising that the bus was taking too long to come! so i asked some security guard there, who later told me that 70 only goes to that bus stop on weekends!! i was like WTF?!?! i wasted so much time! and the strange thing is that, the bus stop did not even put a notice to say that 70 only stops at that stop on weekends!! how commuter-unfriendly!
am i really supposed to know all these things abt crazy weird bus times?? like seriously?
one day when im free-er, i shall write in a letter to complain to them to do something abt their signs! its not the first time i got lost of their lousy signs at their bus stops! =/
if any person from SBS transit (i think thats what the company is called) reads this, i hope u do something abt it! its highly annoying and i wasted one hour of my life walking around and waiting at the bus stops!
or maybe im just not cut out for taking buses.. hmmmm.. haha

on the otherhand, i had 4 scoops of ice cream today!! mmm....

i want to update this blog because i feel like typing on the laptop, but i dont know what to write about. im not feeling happy enough to make this entry sound happy, neither am i going to write something that will bore everyone to death. i shall just talk about today. i bought about $160 worth of things today, and that is after spending quite a bit yesterday as well. so yes, i have been spending a lot of money. and before even i myself get bored of what i am typing, this is some interesting thing that i heard on the train today.
this boy (whom i think is in upper primary or lower secondary), asked his mum a math question which he claimed to have solved it himself during some enrichment math class. he made a bet with his mum that everytime the mum gets the answer wrong, his pocket money would increase by a dollar a day. so the question was, "if there are 2000 lines on the same plane, what is the maximum number of intersections that can exist?" and his mum had 10mins (set by her son) to solve the question.
the mum gave many wrong answers, and after when the boy said that his pocket money has now amounted to $5 a day, the mum called the grandma to help solve the problem, and claimed that she never made a bet with her son.
it was just so amusing when the boy had to add that "mummy, i am smarter than u!"
the whole time, i just sat in my seat and watched the mother and son pair, occassionally trying to catch a glimpse of the boy's math worksheet (on which the answer was written) till i got off at my stop. but sadly, i couldnt see the answer, nor did i get to hear the final answer.
haha it was a cute train incident that actually brought a smile to my face. i didnt think about the math problem again after that as i hurried out of the train station and into my dad's car, but seeing as how boring my next few days are going to be, maybe indulging my brain in some math exercise might do it some good.
but for now, its time for another episode of House.

a 2nd attempt at going to swim in the morning has failed, and hence, im once again sitting at my com (what a sedentary activity to do) blogging.. blame the sun.. its not ard this morning.. and i can almost imagine myself jumping straight out of the freezing swimming pool water the moment i enter it.. in this way, i guess i wont be late in meeting people later haha..

last fri was spent lazing on the beach.. it was a very hot and sunny day!




xq in a contemplative mood.. hmmmmm


claire n i decided to walk to the other island! haha so here we are at the "Southernmost Point of the Asia Continent"..


we RAN across the bridge cos the wooden planks were seriously hot! stopping long enough only to take a pic.. some primary school kids were on some excursion to sentosa (fri being the last day of term for them) and they counted the number of wooden planks on this suspension bridge, it was apparently ard 400! hmmm haha a bit dubious i think ;p


(a random statement: tokyo drift song is playing on my com now! the tune is rather irritatingly addictive ;p )

back to sentosa..
while claire and i went for a walk.. weili and xq were well, just sitting under a tree ;p


we then decided to go into the water.. but weili didnt join us at first cos he was talking to diane on the phone! =P

btw, weili is like so totally obsessed with those abs in 300! =/ i think he secretly wants to have a body like Gerard Butler ;p

claire running into the water =)


xq's face is so big here cos he's showing off his rather flawless skin =P


i think i was falling down when i was taking this shot with claire.. hence i look a bit retarded =( boo


ME! =)


xq acting "young and cute".. tsk! haha i swear xq did this very very gay-looking pose before this shot which i sadly didnt manage to get a pic of =P


xq's camera was being cranky and taking strange photos like this! =/


strange poses in this photo! =P


a pic of us all!! =)

yayy! it was a fun and relaxing afternoon! haha thankfully i didnt get really sunburnt after that..


on a sidenote, i cant sleep a lot nowadays.. strange =/ used to be able to sleep 10 or more hrs a day when i was studying.. now that im not studying (yes, still slacking =/ ) i only can sleep the most 6 or 7 hrs.. i want to be able to sleep more!

im gonna listen to fei lun hai songs again =) hee..
