CaMp fOotlOoSe...

going to the camp already... so fast! time passes really quickly... fri was anatomy exam and i will going to camp for a whole week... i am going to miss my pillow, my bolster and my bed...
the last time i went to a camp was in sec 4...red cross camp... in crescent...didn't really enjoyed it though... haven't even started packing... yesterday spent the night planning the games for the kids, btw, thanx prisy, for helping me...:)

anatomy exam was okay, i guess, just that i am so confused with the orientation of the bones and the actions of the muscles, like which muscle moves what joints...
anyway, was supposed to finish up my ORL assignment, in the end, i think i would have to finish it when i come back...

Michelle went back... i am so envious... wish that i could also go back now instead of having to wait till dec... she seems to be enjoying herself alot, which is good, cos she hasn't been back for a long long time... asked her to bring back famous amos and peanut butter for me... haha... dun like the peanut butter here...

btw... do u guys want me to buy anything from here? i can try to look for the stuff you want and bring it back... just email me k... or tell me on the tagboard... :)

QuEen oF prOcrAsTinaTiOn...

just came back from another altercation with the 'evil woman'... if not for the money, i would really like to tell her to p*** off...
and u noe what, while i was having lunch that day at work, overheard two of my supervisors bitching abt her too... so i wasn't the only one who detest her... and i heard them mentioning that alot of pple at work also complained abt her, and she herself dun like working at our branch... and she's currently looking for another position at other locations... good riddANCE... the faster you are fired, the better...
whenever i have a shift with her on duty, i always go home in a bad mood... asshole...

watched Stealth last friday with prisy... i liked the show alot... although the reviews that i read abt the show weren't very good... Josh Lucas's eyes are the bluest i have ever seen... and his are definitely real... highly recommended... the way the film was shot was really good...

anatomy exam coming this friday... and i haven't even finish revising half of the materials... so many details to remember, and i have to say that what they teach here is much more detailed than what i remembered studying in nyp... tried the sample exam paper and almost failed... alamak...

was supposed to study over the weekend...on sat... worked in the afternoon and then at night... ended up watching the chinese show again... with prisy... bcos uncle somehow managed to install the computer into the tv... so what was originally on the computer, can now be watched on tv... so obviously, we were very excited and what started out as a 'testing' session, turned out to be watching the show until midnight session... okay so i told myself, i will study on sun...
and then at 9am in the morning, i was still sleeping, the phone rang and my supervisor asked if i can start work at 10am till 7pm... great, in the end, never got to study at all...

DeLayEd BloggInG...

alamak!!! so long never blog already... now have to blog during common lunch... which means that i will be in hungry city later... and today finish at 4pm...

firstly...saw joanna's comment abt me wearing the OT shirt that day, and u noe what?!... pple in my course were very fascinated by it... asked me how come I got the shirt, and they liked the design too... yay... and i told them i attended OT back in singapore, and that the students there all have to have a class tshirt or something to represent their class... haha...
and then that day, i was talking to my friend and i said 'a-ba-den', which means obviously or yes, rite, and she was like, 'excuse me?!'... and then me and angela started to laugh, cos it's like a singlish thing... haha...

hmm... went to watch REd EYE last tues... now Greater Union no more $5.70 movies already, when we arrived there then found out abt it, but in the end, we still decided to watch... actually we were supposed to do like a community invasion thing for HO, pretend to be a visually-impaired person, and go into the community... the list of things that we were required to do were take public transport, cross a busy intersection, buy drinks... but we drove there instead... and we didn't really do the thing anyway, cos like karen didn't want to wear the blindfold ard westfield...
btw, if u haven't watched the movie, pls dun waste ur money (like me!)... it was dumb, i can't believe rachel mcadams would act in this kind of movie, and what's worse, with that, pervert-looking guy!!! he always act like pervert and creepy roles... in batman also...

next week got anatomy test!!! so fast leh... i totally forgot all my attachments and actions and joints... they are even more detailed over here... have to learn abt bone tissues, muscle tissues, cartilage, etc... sian ah... and the anatomy lab stinks even worse than the one in nyp... the smell is really strong and it stays with you for like a few days... the good thing is that, they have a lot of cadavers available, so dun have to take turns or stand on tiptoes to look... for short pple like me...
going for my clinical placement camp next week... huh... decided that i made a bad choice in choosing to go during this one-week break, cos after the break, alot of assignments due... and that means i have to complete them before the camp...shit...

saw the pictures that sherry took of her uni, SMU... really look like a high-class hospital, compared to our campus here... which reminds me, compared to any school back in singapore, our campus is like a hole... thanks sherry anyway for taking those pics... i want to go visit there when i go back... can't wait...

At Auburn RSL, having buffet lunch...

UpDaTeS...

now, i can't blog so often already... cos firstly, i really must start mugging, cos i have been slacking for the first 4 weeks since uni started, and i am warned not to use up the bandwidth at home... sigh... so i can only come to school and blog...

last wed, we had a 3hour break so went to have lunch with some friends, and it was like a birthday lunch they had for me... we had buffet, long time never eat buffet already, and the prices were quite reasonable, at this auburn RSL club... RSL stands for Received and Services League... which, btw, i have absolutely no idea what it means...
they actually have like lotus and char siew baos, and prawn crackers, and icecream... yum... when i saw the baos...i was so excited! never got to eat bao since i came here...
ate till i felt so bloated that i can't have dinner...

another thing that i wish to mention is that... i would like to congratulate myself... haha... on surviving my first winter here... it was really cold at times, especially at night... but spring's here... although these few days it was raining, and was really cold... 3 cheers for andrea...

on fri... went to chinatown with prisy and amelia to go look for cheap airplane tickets to singapore... yes, i plan to go back home in dec... we finally found a travel agency which offered quite reasonable SIA tickets at AUD$920... excluding taxes... and we plan to go back on the 5 dec till 23 dec... it was really an adventure... roaming the streets and going from one travel agency to the next... made me feel quite grown-up, cos i dun really get the chance to do something like that back home, now i just have to earn money to pay for my own ticket...
this weekend's work was tiring but i enjoyed it... no need to see the stupid person's face... was supposed to see her on sun night, but my other nice supervisor changed my shift from sun night to in the morning... haha... must be my prince of luck shining on me... :) and the whole of this week i also won't see her... so i am in a good mood this week...
after that, went to this foodcourt in chinatown and ate this korean spicy beef dish which was recommended by prisy... yum... really nice and spicy... better than ceci... the portion is also bigger and got more meat...
and then amelia had to leave for her driving lessons, and me and prisy continued to walk towards town hall... to go karaoke!
i have been looking forward to go karaoke, and then to my disappointment, echopoint did not have the songs that i want to sing... so we sang for an hour and decided to go big echo... and irritating, the place was fully booked... some pple just have nothing better to do than go karaoke... in the end, we just went home... oh and btw, i happened to see the 'wu ying liang ping' dvd selling for quite cheap, and i bought it... not bad... just like in karaoke, even have lyrics to the clips...
now i want to look for the greatest video clips for backstreet boys... maybe have to try online, cos i can't find any here...

okay, as the end for today's blog, i want to mention something really confusing to me, at least... u now how back in nyp, dr ravi taught us that the action for supraspinatus was to help initiate abduction, as in all the anatomy tb... but here, my lecturer says that the muscle has no action, it just provides a medial force to the humeral head, keeping it in the glenoid fossa... huh???
i am so confused... who to believe???

HaPy 20th BdaE...

went to burwood westfield to celebrate my bdae with amelia and karen last fri... was abit diappointed becos i thought that more pple were coming... but it was still fun... they bought me a wallet, a soft toy and a cake... and then we had fast food for lunch... haha... cos i want to eat mcdonald's and amelia wanted to eat kfc... so in the end, we decided to eat in the foodcourt... after that... we went shopping for abit and then had to leave early cos i was doing another morning fresh promotion in the afternoon...

business was really bad... i only manage to sell 1 box of pathetic Tectabs... cos not many pple go to coles west pennant hills i think, since the opening of woolies at thornleigh, where i work...
which reminds me of the supervisor whom i dun like... now all i can do is to pretend to smile at her and do whatever she tells me to do while i am cursing her inwardly...
i feel so hypocritical sometimes... like even though u dun like somebody, u still have to act like u are close friends with them... i think as u grow older, when u go out to work, u will face this kind of problems... especially here, cos like even in woolies, some supervisors are friendly, but others only seem friendly at times, other times, they can like 'fan lian bu ren ren'...

okay, at night, auntie fried roti prata for us, and we also ate this really nice ice cream as dessert, called conoisseur... and prisy gave me the album for the chinese show as a bdae gift... i have been wanting to get it, and she managed to find it, but she won't tell me where... bad girl...thank you. to michelle too, for the scarf...

went to watch unleashed yesterday... quite nice show, funny too... it wasn't that violent, as compared to sin city... which was gross... especially elijah wood, he looked really creepy... thank god it was in black and white, otherwise, with all the blood and gore everywhere... and the yellow thing... yuck, what is that?? reached home quite late, and now i am so tired, cos i dunno why, these few days, although i sleep early, and didn't really do much studying, i still feel sleepy...
btw, are the pics of the show chinese paladin nice? i spent quite alot of energy and time looking for them... highly recommended show to watch...

WOrLd CuP FeVEr...

World Cup 2022, held in Qatar this time around, has been full of shocks and surprises... the underdogs are definitely Morroco and hopefully ...
