weekend has finally came to an end..gotta go work tmr, and get my timesheet signed so i'll be able to get paid soon! juz bought 2 tees from esp and nike(felt so cheated when i tot i'll get a 10% + 10% discount on items if i use nets, then when i made payment for the shirt tt i tried on, the person told me it doesn't apply for new arrivals! damn! shld have said earlier ma! but since i tried it and liked it.. i decided to buy lor..)

chelsea drew against fulham. WTF! there were a couple of shots tt came SO CLOSE to gg in, from both chelsea and fulham... (thank goodness for petr cech for saving one and also the unfortunate shots tt were inches away from causing the first defeat at stamford bridge since 04) ANYWAYS, the commentator did say it's kinda early to predict the winners, but i can already sense it... wish i was wrong..

was introduced to tv-links.. watched brokeback mountain.. but seriously, i think i'm super dense cos i dun seem to understand the story... maybe it's becos of the chi subtitles.. it sux! i was trying to read it cos the accents by the 2 leads were juz too difficult for me to decipher.. darn. and the chi subtitles, at times, were completely off the track! argh. so.. didn't really enjoy the movie... but the acting looked gd.. haha...

sailor moon.. yup.. i've been watching!!! it's soooooo childish and kiddish and girlish but i love it!!! it's like gg back to my younger days.(darn! i feel old now tt i mention tt) esp the crush tt usagi has on both the arcade guy and the tuxedo musk. i juz finish watching epi 14 and there was this part where tux mask rescued sailor moon and they flew away, her in his arms.. i was like gushing and grinning from side to side la! HAHA... actually i'm not really into the plot of sailor warriors fighting the evil, juz the romance part.. haha.. yup... dun tell me to grow up.. let me finish the 200 episodes first!

i am a 19yr old.. turning 20 next year... my god ah... wish i was 17 again(tt age is like not too old, not too young...)

4-0

the time now is 4.50am. i suddenly woke up 5min(cos my 2 alarms didn't wake me up) hoping to catch abit of chelsea's match against hull city. but i think i woke up 10min after the match ended. anyways, being awake and curious/anxious, i decided to come online to check the score. it's 4-0 against the low ranked hull city. THANK GOODNESS! and sinclair scores his first goal for chelsea first team. good for him! and 2 other goals by kalou and 1- 35 yard shot from sidwell.. well done ppls! although it's against a low ranked club, i think it's pretty impt to win the match... i mean, after so many demoralising matches, winning this one cld help to boost the players confidence for them to do better in the other matches.
so right now, i'll juz keep my faith...[i look forward to a WIN in this weekend's match against fulham]

work and chelsea

this is the 3rd day of the 2nd week at work.. so far, it's been pretty slack for me compared to my 2 other frens... i have to keep pestering the IC to gimme work to do, and the things tt she ask me to do are juz - checking, filing, labelling.. it's like checking stuff tt alr has been checked by the big boss.. hai.. but i guess i shld be thankful tt i dun have to do things which require me to consult the perm staff whenever i have a prob... i dun like to trouble others, they alr have their own work to do..

anyway, i shld be seeing an update of a sum of $$$ in my account by next fri(hopefully!). then i'll be able to buy 2 tops from esp and f21 :) maybe a pair of running shoes? cos it feels weird to be running in my tennis shoes. then again, i haven't been doing much running, so it'll prob be a waste if i buy a new pair..

i still haven't find a fren to watch david copperfield with me :(( anyone pls?!


OH. i keep forgetting to do this extremely impt update of my life. my dear precious chelsea has juz lost their manager(on a mutual agreement, wateva). i'm so extremely disappointed tt he left, i dunno who to blame for his departure. and also, i can't believe tt chelsea has yet to score and yet to win a single match in ONE mth! how is tt possible? anyway, as a chelsea fan, i am sad to claim tt the EPL cup will not be back in our shelves for this season. liverpool and arsenal are doing a gd job so far.. hai.. i feel soo depressed leh.. i was soo proud of chelsea's achievement last season... and now, i dunno if i still consider myself as their fan.. i do hope they will come out of this unfortunate situation and try to salvage it asap... rumour has it tt ronaldinho is cmg over.. gosh! wat if he turns out to be the 2nd shevchenko???!!! then everyone will be laughing at poor roman abramovich for wasting his money... SIGH

class bbq

hads loads of fun at limjie's hse... bbq-think we ordered too much food cos last min got ppls decided not to turn up... hotdogs were nice(but still not as nice as the ones i ate at sentosa)

then we had a sleepover at limjie's pl instead of sw's hse.. played pictionary!!! gosh it's sooooo FUN!!! i think the best guess tt my grp did was when i attempt to draw mona lisa and amanda actually got it right!!! haha.. damn fun & funny!

shan't elaborate more.. now got chelsea vs manu match.. HAI.... tmr got work-SIAN.. it's sian cos i have to make calls.. if not, i think i wldn't be so bothered over it..

first wk of work

today was a pretty good day at work. juz do cheques and called a few clinics who have some disputes over the bills and all.. hai.. damn, i think i'll be stuck wif this calling job until the clinics start paying up:( anyway, i wasn't feeling gd cos i'm having menses and i keep sneezing and blowing my nose. didn't wana go to work but still went cos of the pay... today was gd becos i didn't have to deal wif the big one much and the boss wanted us to leave on time! [yes! today was the first time i leave so early! at 6.05pm!]

looking forward to BBQ tmr at limjie's hse and then the sleepover at sw's place :)

oh.. i got introduced to this site called 'facebook'. seems fun!

i hope i can survive the remaining 15days of work.. and look forward to receiving my salary.

ch8 show at 9pm is GOOD! finally! a decent production wif a good cast-thomas ong, chen hanwei & terence chao! it's been sooo long since these GOOD actors appear on tv...

chelsea chelsae :(

i was kinda excited to see chelsea as the more dominating team against rosenburg.. but i was really really disappointed tt they only managed a draw against a supposedly not tt fantastic club...

they had sooo many crosses into the box.. but all of it were met by the defender's headers.. one of the very few crosses from rosenburg, and they scored. HAI. and i think like 3quarter of the game, it was juz chelsea attacking and rosenburg defending(wif their heads)

i juz feel sooo sad tt chelsea didn't do well.. they scored none against both aston villa and blackburn...

i kinda understand tt sometimes, it juz ain't their day.

but still... it sux for both the players and the fans(like me) gosh... i dun even noe wat to say... i tot roman's plan to have 2euro cups in 6 yrs seems pretty alrite and fair for such a major club like chelsea.. but they're gg to have to buck up and pull up their darn socks and NOT have to rely on their injured teammate(lampard & drogba. not tt i dun like them.. but i think the winning formula for a good team shldn't be all abt 2 players only... the rest of them are such great players in their own position too!)

come on chelsea... i noe u can do it. [mr mourinho! pls kick some sense into them!] wait.. mr mourniho, can u do smthg abt it too?

*prays hard*

my first day at work:

job scope: pretty straightforward-printing, data entry, checking(gosh i hate checking-esp when it involves FIGURES! and cheques!)... juz tt i hate learning new things and doing hands-on... ya.. but by the end of the day.. i figured out how to zap the cheques double-sided, and i'm proud tt i solve the paper jam on the other printer! HAHA.. OKOK! dun laugh at the 19yr old inexperienced girl.. tt's why i hate first days...

ppls: there was a nice same age girl to teach us her work as it was her last day.. i know there's alot more we haven't learn and i really fear the BIG IC... not the one in the office, but the one in charge of temp staff.. she reminds us abt things in a tone tt instill fear and stress in me... (somehow, lj seems pretty ok..i noe i noe.. i'm such a scaredy cat!) ya.. but strangely, the other 2 temps who were alr working there seems to have a pretty decent relationship wif the perm staff.. so, hopefully, if i dun screw up in the remaining 18 days,she won't be bias against me. then there's lunch.. the temps goes tog wif the perm staff, which i find-slightly uncomfortable.. although it did allow me to see the nicer and friendlier side of the big ic..

timing: i was really - BOTHERED. by the fact tt we had to do OT.. they didn't really mention and ask us to stay back.. but lj heard tt they often stay back.. and even the rest of the perm staff dun leave til like 645!(we're supposed to end at 6!! in the end, we left at 7.10, and there were still ppls ard).. i was kinda annoyed.. like they only wait til 7 b4 making the comment of 'hey girls.. haven't leave yet ah?' C'mon! wat were we to do? there were still work to be done(never ending) and no one bothered to ask us and tell us tt we can leave the work til tmr! -.- hai.. i juz hope we get paid OT rates... otherwise, even lj wldn't stay.. as for me, i actually wouldn't even wana stay for OT lor.. supposed to use the time between 6-7 to go gym:( i alr told myself to exercise after work at abt 6.20, then now, i've juz found another excuse to not work out cos of late dismissal.. SIAN. i pray tt i do not hit the '6'..

ya... other than the timing.. everything else is still alrite.. thankgoodness there's a fren wif me..


oh ya.. i wana watch david copperfield! MAGIC & ILLUSIONS!!!

tennis and pizza

had a very good tennis session w yh.. prob becos the balls were new and more bouncy.. or that both our strokes have improved.. pretty impressive i muz say.. haha.. hearing the sound of the ball as it flew from one side to the other and back... NICE

then we went pizza hut and met up wif sm, wl, sy. it's been sooo long since i had pizza wif my sec sch frens.. i hope it wasn't becos they read the email, then they decided to come to make me feel happy?! haha.. anyways, it was juz hilarious... sooo many lame and cold and funny jokes and tricks.

1)the lasik tt sm under went. i can't believe i got tricked by sm&wl and then manage to pull of the exact one again on yh&sy! HAHA
2)the unfortunate tsunami & fire outbreak & earthquake (yh! get the torchlinght!)
3)your hero, your coach(if not the person, then the vehicle meh?!) ok la, only i laughed at this one.. but it's prob becos i was v. high alr

THANK YOU...

i was soo happy last nite... not juz becos of the jokes la.. but also becos i was spending time wif a grp of frens whom i missed sooo much... it feels so darn good.. once again-thank you :)

results

saw the msg wif my results.. i wasn't expecting it cos last nite when i sleep, i didn't even realise tt i wld be the 14th of sept today..

the grades were sorta -expected... haha.. next time i shall do better for anat, kine & physio.

my grades are actually averaged, but i feel it does represent the amt of work i've put in..


alrite, let's' work harder in the next sem!

realised smthg

if someone asks me whether i support england more or chelsea more, my ans wld be the latter. i realised it when i watched the england vs russia match this morning... when owen first scored at the 7th min, i was sitting on my chair making wild gestures. if chelsea had scored, i wld be making wild gestures too, but this time i wld be jumping all over from the living room to the kitchen. haha..

anyways, i went back to sleep at the 20th min, and dreamt tt england scored 3-0!! and indeed they did! woohoo! owen scored twice. [wait a min, did i watch the owen score the 2nd goal?] wateva.. i'm happy for them!

my uni frens very busy these days.. difficult to ask them out or even to meet them at their campus.. now i noe how it feels like to ask ur dear frens to go out and yet they can't make it :( i shan't blame them... i think i crap alot when i say i wanna ask my frens out... now tt i got a job for the remaining of my hols. i think it'll be even harder to meet them:(

anyways, congrats to myself for getting a job for e next 4 wks! my god.. i didn't think it wld be possible to get some admin job but i did! but it's thru agency.. so i have no idea how much my salary will be eaten! but, i muz remind myself tt a portion of the salary will go into my savings for 4th yr deg conversion. yup. oh shit. and i realise i won't be able to gym in the morning anymore.. sian. shall find a way to 'work out' in the evenings(which is v. hard) :(

class chalet

Went for class chalet at sentosa, St james on sat nite and bbq on sun evening..

a bunch of us went to Movida(?) first. it looks like a nice pub wit a small stage and a small dance floor in front of it..I wasn't sure wat to order so i got a cocktail first... Then later got cj to accompany me drink the tequila shot.. it was - alrite i guess.. the salt and lemon helped so i cldn't really taste the drink itself.. but i noe i was feeling 'hot' inside, like even though i was shivering on the outside.. when the band started- it's some spanish ppls i think - or ppls singing spanish songs... only a couple of ladies went to the floor to start dancing.. yup.. the songs were- ok.. spanish versions of a couple of michael buble's songs..

yup, after we had our drinks, we went over to the power house which seemed kinda empty(i guess it's becos it was only 11?) the music wasn't to any of our likings.. so we left soon for boiler's room.. It had better music.. but was super crowded and extremely squeezy, and so we left too..

met up wif shimin.. who brought along her volleyball! haha.. yup, then we saw that they were playing the england match so me and her went to watch it.. a few min after we sat down, england scored!!! WooHoo!! and i kinda felt tt england was sure to win the match.[yup, in the end, england did went on to win isreal 3-0] so, we went to join the others during half-time who went to 7eleven at vivo... i think i was having some sorta headache when we reached there.. many of them had some sort of drink while i was really excited to share nachos wif a fren.. gosh-the cheese tasted soooo good! haha.. then they had some crazy moments at the seats at the cinema... playing soccer using volleyball.. getting ppls to walk in straight line, lying ard and juz laughing. I on the otherhand was really feeling the effects of either a) cocktail b) tequila c)both cocktail & tequila d)the banging music e) 2 drinks & the music. it wasn't tt bad but it juz made me wana go home.. but i realised i didn't have my keys so there's no way i cld sneak back into home at 2 in the morning wout my mum knowing. Yup, after a while, the of the girls decided to go back and the rest of us followed..(one reason was becos we felt they were kinda 'unsteady' and we had to accompany them in case smthg did happen to them)

went back to movida.. i somehow felt better by then..and the place was packed! the music sounded better wif spanish versions of shakira's songs instead.. and the dance floor was packed too... yup.. danced wif a couple of the others, while some others juz kinda laid back and listened to the music... noticed a couple of things on the dance floor... like how this dude was juz obviously looking for girls to dance wif.. it was sooo darn obvious.. i think a couple of ladies juz played along and then ignored him.. it was annoying. the music was awesome and the singers were well, good singers and dancers! i think it was 3 when smthg happened.. apparantly this dude was about to approach 2 of my 'totally high' frens and those who sat behind saw it and so decided to brg them out... these 2 frens- oh my gosh.. they were like in a world of their own!!!! they had no idea wat was gg on! anyways, we decided to take a cab back to our chalet.. [i shan't mention wat happened wif the 2 girls.. juz tt they were acting - really weird.. and funny.]

watched high sch musical 2. but cldn't stay awake for more than 10 min... think the rest also felt tired... and we all juz sqeezed into the 2 beds and 2 mattresses.. i had the chance of taking up 3 different parts of the room cos the first 2 was either hurting my neck or my butt..

the next day, we woke up pretty early.. like 8 plus.. had brunch at koufu then played vball and frisbee at siloso beach.. bbq started at 6? yup.. and the rest of it - well.. juz cldn't stop eating..[ and i muz apologise here cos i felt like i didn't do much to help out except by eating. oops. i do feel guilty..] anyway, the food was good! esp the hotdogs!!! and the chicken wings-gosh! they were all COOKED! haha.. like none were like half-raw or anything.. haha... thanks to all who sweat it out at the pit!!!

anyways, me and a couple of others decided to not stay over.. no place for us to sleep or even sit ...yup!

hols has.. 'officially' started.. as long as i finished my clinicals report by wed.. yup.. then hopefully i can get a job for 3 weeks.. do some shopping.. alot of working out needs to be done... and reading up on new stuff! stuff tt we got to know thru clinicals.. me v. hardworking rite?! haha!!

2 wks of clinicals

Finally, we're done wif clinicals... all the late nite researching and preparation for the speech/ppt were killing me. I'm so glad i got over it.. All i have to do now, is finish up on my activity log & reflection. So, let me sum up the 2nd week of clinicals.

Basically, the monday started off pretty well, cos i managed to meet Mr.P :D twice somemore :)
Yup, so we attended the parkinson's disease support grp, spinal support/exercise grp, and also the cadiopulmonary grp, ACL classes These are all the pretty interestin activities besides following our CE ard... 2nd week saw many patients who alr came in the 1st week. So basically, tt's it. haha..

For the clinical ppt, i sorta screwed up? haha.. didn't appear to have much confidence cos i didn't have eye contact wif the others besides the occasional looking up to my CE. Oh, and it got even worse when it reaches my turn to speak cos the no. of ppls listening increased from 3 to 6..(okok.. 6 is still a pretty small no. compared to those speaking in front of 10..) oh yes, and i was speaking too fast. Ya, and the 5min presentation at nyp was actually slightly alrite despite my lack of practice.. I juz sorta went on in a informal way.. and i think i was one of those ppls tt Mr. Bala mention who 'danced' ard during the presentation... HAHA

Yup... shan't mention too much abt the cases i touched on... i'll be writing them in my log anyway.. Wld mention some interesting things tt happened throughout the weeks
1) we always seemed to be seen by the 'boss' at the wrong place at the wrong time. haha...
2) during the pulmonary rehab prog, while the lady was taking my BP, she gave us some instruction- to take the BP of these 2 gentlemen. I was kinda worried but i didn't show la, then she saw my BP increased(cos the equipment was still clipped onto my finger) and she was like - dun be nervous! then me and tricia burst out laughing... it was juz soo embarrassing!
3) i can't rmb... i'm bad at these..

Oh, realised tt all of us benefitted ALOT from the attachments... And i tot sgh outpatient was pretty gd, but then when i heard the experiences of the others at acute or private hospitals, i think i sorta can't wait to attend my next clinicals. wld definitely wanna be exposed to as many places as possible. Esp. spore sports sch.

Yup, so chalet begins tmr... sorta looking forward to it... i had a paranoid feeling this afternoon when i go to sch. shan't mention too much. But i hope there'll be improvements over the couple of days.

there are soo many things i wanna do over the rest of the hols.. visit my sec sch frens at nus, organise bbq for jc ppls, read up of medical conditions and all...haven't read the books i borrowed... yup... and get a job... so i can save some money and spend some on new clothes :)
