HOT

Been back in Singapore for a little over 2 days already.. Beginning to miss Adelaide's weather.. haha but I don't wanna go back too soon la.. Had chilli crabs after I landed on Sunday! hahaha yummy.. Really missed the food in Singapore.. Had sushi today too.. Haha another food that I've not eaten in four over months.. And have I mentioned that it's HOT in Singapore? Once I stepped off the plane the heat hit me.. haha couldn't even breathe.. There are so many movies I wanna watch! War of the Worlds, Initial D, Fantastic Four, etcetc.. Maybe shall catch a couple tomorrow.. Don't really have plans for tomorrow anyway.. Things have also changed a lot in 4 months.. TM and Century Square has changed so much! My favourite shop that has supplied me Archie comics for the past years has disappeared.. sigh.. Sakae Sushi is back in Century Square among many other new shops and restaurants.. Maybe should go explore more tomorrow.. hahaha

Homeward Bound

Exams are finally over! A huge load has been lifted off my brain! And I'm going home tomorrow!!
We took a trip down to Victor Harbour today, wanting to catch some whales in action as its whale season now.. The view there is spectacular.. The ocean is so very big. How I wish I would be able to own a beachfront property there.. Went over to a small island there called Granite Island, so called because I think its made entirely out of granite, and maybe some sand, grass and other stuff.. It was a nice walk around the island, saw sea sprays and funny rock formations.. Then we saw whales in the distance! I imagine our luck!! There they were, two whales frolicking about in the ocean, churning out bubbles around the sea water.. So we stood there to admire the whales, waiting to see if they will flick a tail at us. But after 5 minutes of no movement, and observing them some 15 minutes later, they were still in the same position.. We realised that they were rocks that were almost fully submerged under the water with the waves lapping around them.. Argh. The whales eluded us this time, but we will be back.
Went for dinner after that in this restaurant near the coast. We all had Beer Batter Fish and Chips.. It was not too bad, but I think Fish and Co. is still better.. We also celebrated early Fang's 21st Birthday in the restaurant.. I would say our plan came to fruition very successfully, beginning with an ambush, a race and a lost camera. The restaurant was also very helpful by helping us with the cake and giving Fang a free Piña Colada.. It was a very fun day and a very good way to destress after the exams.. I would also like to wish Fang a very Happy Birthday! Hope you enjoyed your day!

Anisopoikilocytosis

One last paper to go! It feels as if the exams are over already.. haha I can almost feel it.. Just MCQ and short answer left.. Today's practical was quite fun.. Consisting of 17 stations with 7 mins each.. So have to rotate like a game.. haha.. Some unexpected stuff came up but never mind la.. First and only exam that is not counted, so I shall cherish the moment.. Can't wait to get back to Singapore, one thing I'm dreading is the weather.. Absolutely love the weather here.. Haven't perspired for a long long time.. Oh well, you win some you lose some.. Very sleepy.. Shall continue another day.

Quote of the day

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the number of moments that take your breath away

Alright, back to study!

Durex ad

Got this from Kelvin's blog..

haha I think it's a simple yet ingenious ad..

JC choir hits top note

I think most reporters in The S****** Times are from a certain JC.. Maybe since they so angmohdified.. The whole article goes on and on how they beat so many choirs blah blah blah.. And for the other Singaporean choirs, they just get one line.

The National University of Singapore, Anderson JC and Woodlands Primary also took part and won prizes as well.

So zai go take part Olympics lor..
Haha I don't know what I'm ranting about.. Just letting off some steam from the exams..

One down two to go!

Today was the first time I'm taking an exam in two and a half years.. I think I'm a little out of touch already.. haha.. Thought I had more than enough time to finish the four questions but boy was I wrong.. But I still managed to finish it.. I hate the stupid respiratory system.. Why is there so many colours of sputum?! They want me to know the entire colour spectrum of sputum?! Hopefully I'll scrape through this paper alright.. Most of the questions were pretty all right.. Its an ungraded pass after all.. And its formative after all.. Oh well.. Next up, practical..

Information Overload

Argh.. I'm so screwed for the exams.. Hope I can pull through.. If my brain grew with the amount of information I have to know for the exam I think my head will be like Marvin above.. Gotta sleep now, got a paper to catch tomorrow..

Happy Fathers' Day

This time next week I'll be on a plane home! But I would have to get through this week first.. Sigh.. Still so much to cover..

P is for P plate

Going home in less then 2 weeks time! Exam is coming. Still so much to cover. Sigh. Spent the whole day with dead people today. How exciting. After fiddling around with intestines trying to figure out how to differentiate this thingy from that thingy, went for a well deserved lunch with the rest. When the conversation turned to driving in Singapore and P plates, I realised on checking my license that today is exactly one year since I got my license! Woohoo! No more P plate liao! haha. Well, have to get back to the books.

Autumn Leaves

The street ouside med school.. pardon the lousy resolution.. taken with hp camera..

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

15 More Days!

Today is the last day of school of Semester 1!! One down, 11 to go! The weather is crazy now.. Its supposed to be winter! But it has been so warm the past few days.. Stupid El Nino.. Need to start planning my itinerary for when i return to Singapore.. Oh.. and there are the exams too.. Sigh.. Need to study study study...

22 more days

Woohoo.. The days are counting down! Sigh.. I dunno where to start for my exam preparations.. So many things to do! Luckily they gave some sort of syllabus.. So at least I will know what to cover..
Went for Haran's birthday party last night.. It was fun.. wanted to leave to catch my last bus.. but decided to stay all the way. There was food and alcohol flowing. not bad.. He booked a whole sort of tavern thing at the pub.. So the atmosphere was not bad.. lots of dancing and drinking.. Fun before getting down to study.. The weather is so shiok nowadays.. haha sometimes can't even feel my fingers and toes.. Think i will melt when i return to Singapore..
