i had a minor setback, well, several minor setbacks during my 2nd week... i think i almost failed for safety.
oh wells, better make a list of to take note and mental steps b4 i see all my pts..
mid eval- cld be make or break wk...

ON THE OTHER HAND... there's a reason for me to look forward to travelling all the way to changi! haha :))


finally, first wk has ended. somewhat reminds me of CE3B. hence, i shall take ALL PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES and DO MY BEST FOR WK 2's EVAL!!!! JIA YOU EVERYBODY!

within 2 days, i spent way too much on food(REALLY GOOD FOOD AT FOSTER'S), presents and a pair of LEVI'S jeans tt i kinda bought on impulse! SIGH. what to do??!??! i seriously can't step into a shop with cards and cash on me man! tt's the only way to stop me from buying stuff!
had 2 gatherings over the fri and juz now.. had fun playing skip-bo and family business! hahaha.. really shld juz go mind's cafe one day and play all wkend long man!!!! so good to see my friends. haha.. and parting with them.. well, it's more like i dread the cmg monday than feel the sadness of parting with them.. then again.. it's probably the last time i'll see this bunch until dec 04. haha. uni life is insane man. so are we.

so much to do... and there's a chelsea match later! haha. kinda juz wana waste tonite away.. tmr.. hopefully it'll be more productive?


ya rite.


it's the time of month again.. well. not THAT time of the month.. but yea, clinicals are here to haunt me again..
on a positive side, i'm doing all these at HOME. singapore the little tiny red dot. the comfort of having my own desk(tho extremely messy), a desktop with great wireless that doesn't screw up every 1.5hrs (it better not!) and a awesome bed to toss and turn over every nite..
though i'll probably miss the free transport (bus '11') and late starting time.. but yea.. let's see what i can do with this placement.. hopefully i'll get the most out of it...

went to idp with fran to apply for several unis.. tho on one hand, we're pretty anxious abt the damn limited places, both of us are really looking forward to the chilled out and cool aussie lifestyle... fran n i .. well.. along with su and hc.. have came a long way man... i'm really glad to have all of them in my grp :)) really grateful for all the work they've put in, esp during the 4 days i wasn't here.. i think we make an awesome team.. tho not so during report writing. haha.. definitely gonna experience some up & downs later on (when i go off to slack. haha) but i'm pretty sure it'll brg us even closer together... haha. die die also muz finish report mah.

busy period cmg up next. but wateva it is, at least i'm at home..

it's gd to be home.


finally back home!

it was a good experience despite everything that had happened.

friendships were made.. and broken (in my case). it's unfortunate of course, but through this period of living with one another, u can really see the true colours of someone... the not so pretty true colours.. It's easy to have a friendship and just hang out for a day or so.. but having to live with someone else in that cramp and crappish room really brings out ur true personality and that everything u used to see on the surface were juz the decent cover of a really terrible book.

well, the good thing that come out from here is that i was able to experience LOTS of LOVE from my MUMMY! haha..... strange, but yes.

i wouldn't say i did nyp proud thru this clinicals- others cld have definitely done a much better job. Likewise, i wouldn't say that he was the best ce of all. i feel shortchanged, like i went there but i didn't get as much as i wanted.

Bungee was my main highlight. did u know u weren't suppose to actually JUMP off the platform, but instead juz to lean forward? (yea, i vaguely recall tt from somewhere else too)
sadly, i had TERRIBLE photos and TERRIBLE video, so i will definitely NOT POST my video. Definitely will do it again!!! JOIN ME MY FRIENDS!
Bungy(haha, i realised i keep spelling it as BUNGEE) vs skydiving
==== hmmm.. the 'weirdest' part abt bungee was the leaning forward, cos it's super OMG - like what the hell am i supposed to do?????? for skydiving, thinking back, the part where i was gasping for air was pretty scary too. but skydiving i won't do it much often in future, cos of the air pressure differences... unlike bungy where u dun really experience much physiological changes.. and also i wana train my abs so i can pull that damn strap off at one go next time!


it's a weird feeling to be totally by myself compared to being myself in the presence of the other 2.. there's more comfort in numbers in the latter. not that it really matters right now, since i'm at the lobby watching boys over flowers. but yea, i'm curious to know where they are right now...

this wkend was pretty relaxed i guess. to be staying in hongkong and not having to worry abt what condition the next pt will present with or wat are the biomechanics of this and that... it's juz pure holiday..

Hai. can't believe that for the ortho inpt, i'll still be graded. kena stumped by all the simple qns today...


i can't play catch up anymore. any longer.
i miss being alone without being lonely.

i noe many of the 'consequences' are the results of the decisions i made, but i guess that's juz who i am. it's hard to put it in words. maybe i'm a complicated person who doesn't like to be 'manipulated', i like things to be done my way - unfortunately, when i'm ard with ppls who are more outspoken and have a mind of their own, instead of speaking up, i'd rather go do my own thing, my own way, myself, alone.


if u stay in a foreign land for 6wks with ppls whom u're are not used to, u either hate em or love em.
but whateva the emotion u choose for the person, only express it after the 6wks.
until then, u juz gotta suck it up, cos they are the ones u sleep next to every single night...

28 days have passed and i've made up my mind.


soon! ppls, i'm cmg home REAL SOON!!!
and soon i'll be able to treat my 2 kind friends for the help they've provided me few mths back! :)))))

i can't WAIT to get out of the clinic man! wk 3 was still tolerable. managed to survive somehow... but i dunno how much more he'd expect from us on the last wk!! i'm secretly glad i can't speak canto, so perhaps he doesn't expect me to give pt education.. haha. but then i wished i was able to understand the language more. cos it seems like my ce is so good with his pt, building up rapport and stuff. and i really wish i know what he was saying to the pt so i can pick up some stuff from him!

sigh.. i wonder how it'll be like if i'm here with my good pals instead.. haha.. i dunno... guess it depends on who..

hmm.. inservice is such a chore. i'd be out shopping like mad if it wasn't for inservice. not that i'm very productive anyway. juz kinda waiting for them to pass me the impt info..

miss the days at sydney.. guess it's always the case. when i'm in sg, i'll yearn to go overseas, and the moment i step out of sg, i wish i was back in sg. why is it this way??? i'm like half looking forward to gg aus for further studies, but now... after been to sydney for 1wk and hk for 3wks plus(soon 5wks), i can't decide if i really wana leave the stupid little red dot.
