LAsT paPEr To gO...

i know i haven't blogged for a long time... exams!!! what else... first paper, neuroscience, was okay, not as hard as i thought it would be... i think it's bcos i know what to expect after the mid semester exam... anatomy was quite shitty though, i couldn't do the last few questions on pelvic motion and control... and then today's DHR paper was quite okay, not too difficult, although i never pay attention during lectures and sometimes even 'pon' lectures... not a good thing... but i can't help it sometimes... i really feel like dozing off sometimes... my body is there, but my spirit is not... haha...
last paper is on mon... ORL... so wish that today was the last paper... then i can enjoy the weekend... didn't do much stuff this whole week except study and watch the world cup whenever i can... sigh... today saw the news that the czech republic is out... i can't believe it... i wanted them to go into the nect round... i really like them... oh and australia is in... i actually caught the last 10 minutes of the game today, and the game was really getting out of hand... the referee gave a red card to a croatian player but he still was allowed to keep playing... how weird is that? and the referee was also giving the red and yellow cards out like they dun need money... the whole game was weird...

so anyway, that's about it for now... oh and denise emailed me saying that she might come to sydney... really hope that she can come...
did i mention that i will be going to this faraway suburb called penrith for my placement? it's like almost two hour one way journey there... thinking of the fact that i have to wake up at like 5am in the mornings freezing cold just make me dread the start of placement... somebody help me!!! it's a hospital placement this time, and i will be working with acute stroke patients... the good thing is that angela is also doing her placement there, at least i got company...

2006 FIFA WOrld CuP...

That day one of the channels on tv actually showed a chinese show, turn left turn right... by gigi leung and takashi kaneishiro... this show actually brought back alot of memories... of NJC , especially J2 and my first crush... firstly because when the movie first came out, the radio station 93.3 held this outdoor thing at the bridge that connects NJC and Chinese High... so both siti and me waited outside at the busstop to be the first ones to get the tickets to watch the movie... when we were at the busstop, there wasn't anyone there, so we thought okay, let's just wait here at the busstop and loook out for the radio djs... and then pple started to queue at the bridge, so we quickly went up to the bridge to queue... we were so stupid to have waited... and we actually queued at the wrong end on the bridge too... so in the end, we were not the first ones to get the tickets... but it was good that we managed to get the tickets... pple started to flood the whole bridge, all the students from NJ, Chinese High and Hwa Chong JC... it was so crowded and apparently it was such a big thing that the 630pm news that night actually did a story on this... and the funny thing was, my ex-crush also came to queue for the tickets... haha...
so the viewing was held at this 'ulu' shaw centre theatre near suntec... so me and siti both went to watch even though we had practical exam the next day... and i also saw my ex-crush outside school for the first time... it was so funny, i can't believe that i still remembered it after so long...
too bad the movie ending was stupid...

anyway, back to the present... last mon after handing in ORL assignment, we actually planned to go to newtown to eat thai food, but it was raining quite heavily that day so in the end, we ended up at ceci strathfield... haha... the food was okay, wasn't as nice as i remembered, it's been so long since we ate there... we must really go explore new places... otherwise we keep going back to the same places to eat... after eating, went to mel's new house... she moved from one side of strathfield to the other... the side with less shops and less noise... her new house was much much bigger than her previous one though... nice and spacious... she made us hot chocolate and also got biscuits to eat... whoa, ate till i was so full... and we just hung out at her place, talking, looking at her photo albums... nice...

finally, today is the start of a very exciting and special event.... (drum Rolls please)... THE 2006 Fifa WORLD CUP!!! yes, after 4 years of waiting, it's finally here again! i am so glad the australian team got in, otherwise i doubt they would even broadcast the matches here... football to them meant rugby... which is the national sport... that was why initially whenever i heard them talking abt football, i thought they were talking abt football... who knew they were actually talking abt rugby... anyway, so glad that the australian team made it into the world cup cos that meant that the matches would be broadcasted on tv... too bad i am not supporting them... England!!! show the world what you can do!!!

GOoD n bAd...

okay, happy and good things to report: 1) I now own at least 5 new pairs of jeans, well not really new new, cos i did not buy them, but it was prisy's and she gave them to me cos she dun want them anymore... they came at the right time cos i was thinking of buying jeans cos it's winter now and it's what i wear to uni every day... the only thing abt the jeans are that they are damn tight... cannot breathe in them but according to the experts (Prisy and michelle), they are supposed to be like that and not have extra material hanging out... i was like says who???!!!... haha... 2) watched X-men 3 last tues... and i was totally disappointed... both the first and second ones were so good and the third one had to ruin it all... firstly becos many pple died... and the new x-men were not even given the chance to display their powers... rogue was the worst... i mean, can she be any more useless??!! and angel... wasn't he supposed to have really cool powers??!! and what happened to nightcrawler??!! oops... did i spoil the movie for everyone now??!! anyway the verdict is save ur money and watch it when they show it on tv...
3) got back my anatomy practical results... and i got credit... think i tried my best already... although i did not study joints and nerves well... i always skip joints when it comes to exams... i dunno why... now let's hope that everything i have crammed into my brain for the practical will return to me in time for the end-semester exam...

bad things that happened... finished my ORL assignment today and handed it in... last night was another shitty night trying to complete the assignment, and it was so cold and raining outside... didn't even get much sleep then had to wake up at 6am today to try and finish it... i already can predict many more of these shitty cold nights in the coming weeks, cos exams are coming in 2 wks' time and i still got another COP assignment left... i am so really sick and tired of doing assignments...
my life is boring... uni, work and home... that's all... how sad is that... the thing is... i actually got thurs, fri off last week and i started doing my ORL but somehow, i dun even noe what i was doing the whole weekend, i ended up doing last minute work again...
work was okay... got to see my 'motivation' on sunday... realised i really need a weekly dose of 'motivation' before i can work and study properly... how sad is that... becoming too dependent...
