school

wow. i wake up at 7 every single frigging day for uni. i hate it to bits. HELP someone..

had my first PBL session in 3 months. funny how your mind just clicks and vola, the scheme of things just fall nicely into places.. datapoints, significance, hypotheses.. i'd like to think of it as though i'm learning how to ride a bike. once you master the art of it, you'll never forget it.

went to the hospitals today, except there wasnt really much to do except the whole intro and welcome thing. that's why i am home right now. catching up on some work. and i even made pasta sauce for dinner tonight! so that after gym, i just have to come back and boil pasta and vola i will have food to eat.

alrighty time for lunch. it's just plain sandwich with tuna and lettuce. nothing fantastic.


i'm such a boring person.

how time flies.

20 yrs ago..

i was a teeny toddler who was probably starting to talk and walking around and putting everything into my mouth to have a taste.

15 yrs ago..

i entered primary 1 in marymount! i loved colouring my worksheets and learning new words. School was actually really fun. ;)

10 yrs ago..

i was in pri 6. more school work and the biggest thing in your life was PSLE. which unfortunately i didnt ace but i still think of that as a blessing in disguise.

5 yrs ago..

i was 17. i thought i knew it all in life. but i didn't. Seeing boys in class for the first time. Rushing for lectures and tutorials. Not doing homework. Not attending classes. made some really close friends in the process. lol

a day ago..

i was panicking because i couldn't find a suitable place to stay. the tutorial group list came out and i realised i was not in the group with all the singaporean. twas' sad. but i got over it.

stuff

went to check out my friends' townhouse today. it's a 8min walk from the east end of the city. nice place, new and very neat. i like it even though im going to end up with the tiny room. but oh well. cosy cosy i suppose.

also check out the gym - fitnessfirst. but the guy who's supposed to bring people on tour of the gym was busy. so that would be settled on monday. or maybe tuesday.

did my supermarket shopping. lots of healthy food in the basket. im proud of us! :) in fact i cannot think of a super unhealthy thing that we bought. hmm that's good. i need to detox my body from all that oily food consumed in singapore. (mind wanders to think of roti prata.. laksa...)

came back home.. and victor rooted himself in front of the computer whilst i actually did 1 hour plus of work. yippee. im happy for me. haha. but that was it. cooked dinner.. cleaned up..

oh and we took a walk! around the city. the evening was cool and windy. very nice to talk and walk. we took our time.. was nice. just relaxing and enjoying each other's company.

there's the singapore association bbq tmr at lunch. i just hope it wun rain... coz things will be terribly messy if it rains.

that's all for now. TADA! my life in a nutshell

poke holes

spent 4 hours this morning learning how to poke holes in people's arms and drawing blood out of them. i had to poke 2 holes on victor before there was blood sphewing out into the container. lol. i think i suck and i have wobbly fingers. shit.how how how!

today marks the start of the adelaide fringe festival. there's all that busking in the city.. parades, plays and jazz nights every single day. quite exciting except im not sure if i will go for anything or not.

clearing customs was pretty simple. although the scrutinised and shook my packet of dried cheena mushrooms. he was trying to determine if the brown bits (that fell off from the mushrooms) were mushroom bits or pork floss bits. coz apparently pork floss can spread hand foot and mouth disease people! beware! the dangerous pork floss is on the loose.

damn it these angmoh langs are super comical.

back to adelaide

it's weird. i think i'm quite glad to go back adelaide and start all that studying and independent living all over again. i miss it. all that freedom... studying at 4am, dinner at 1am, cooking at 2am.. running along the river, playing basketball together.. eating oily and starchy chinatown food.

heh.

anyway, i would like to say a big thank you! to you my friends.. glad to have met up and for me to know that our friendship is still here. ;) you guys will always be in my heart!

and to the friends that i didnt have the time to meet up.. so very sorry! work is a menace.. o.o bad excuse but.. hai. i will be back in july.. so keep in touch!

*sniff*

but im sad to go too. leaving behind my old granny, my stitch, my bed, my homecooked food..

life still goes on.. doesnt it?

bye! *waves*

daphne will be leaving tmr, wednesday 22/2/06. flight SQ 229 2350 hrs.

nonsense at home

valentines day~

twas' an interesting day.

i got a nice handmade card from victor! he DOES have a lil bit of arty farty ideas in his head. im so glad! haha...

no flowers though. even though i whined about it...

and we went out for lunch at this nice jap restuarant.. and i footed the bill!


he bought me a pair of bug shades and paid for my cab home.


just like any other day.. heh.

hmm, i would rather 365 above average days... than just to have a few special days a year. spreading the happiness evenly makes me happy.

PS: in the background.. is miss singapore 1978.

hiatus

looks like i am not the only one who's stopped blogging for a while.

i'm been stuffing myself silly with multiple servings of sex and the city episodes, all thanks to dear old fidel!! thanks sooo much.

maybe a point form update would be better. so here goes:

1. my aunt agony services have been extended to included traumatised and troubled parents.

2. clinic is good stuff. and all the staff went KTV on saturday. it was crazy. from the swinging oldies of the 50s.. to the jay chou rap.. we had it all.

3. i bought a crazy looking lion. it's called RYAN! ryan the lion. it has a perpetual bad hair day.. all day long.

4. i made ian treat me to lunch. and he agreed! thai express people. lol

5. i've started rubber stamp art once again! oh the joy.. :)

6. i think i bought too many things to bring back to australia. need to cut back, but what?? i feel that i need every single thing. damnit

lost touch

i realised that there is such a thing as lost touch.. esp when it comes to decorating stuff. i havent done that in a long while... and when i started doing so a few days ago. omg

so ugly and shitty.

eeicks

cinammon and apple sauce muffin!

i baked apple sauce and cinnamon (and almond) muffins today!
it turned out really really nice. yummy. *smacks lips together*

it's raining madly outside. the trees are currently swaying with an average amplitude of 10metres or something..

my carbuncle kid didn't come in yesterday although she was supposed to. 0.0 i wonder if she is okie.

and this kid came in with breathing difficulties, coughing, wheezing.. except she wasn't blue in the face. and whilst she was on the nebuliser resting, we realised that she just came back from a kampong. and, there were CHICKENS in the kampong. oh god.. we were all freaked out. after she left, we threw away the mask she used, cleaned the place and hoped for the best.

had an annoying headache yesterday. sigh i hate having headaches. the doc was nice enough to gimme free painkillers. yeah hooooo.

just had achar, giam chye and steamed fish for lunch. i'm such a sucker for sour and pickled stuff...

lol

snip snip snip

i didn't know cutting hair during cny is bad luck. i just bestowed some bad luck onto myself. haha. it's not THAT short but it's shorter. i like it. head feels lighter. yeay.

my carbuncle kid came in today to get her wound cleaned up again. the hole is a gazillion times smaller. i'm so glad it's healing well and quick. i feel a sense of acomplishment even though i doubt i did alot for her. i was even happier knowing that the doc trusted me to clean the wound! .. i mean, just last week i was this trembling duckling who doesn't even know how to hold forceps. heng ahh..

it's interesting how when you grow up.. and look back on your past 'problems' and 'obstacles', they seem like tiny worries compared to the ones u face at the present. does that mean problems become bigger scale as you grow older? Sian.
