happy again! :)
soong teng: heey woman! haven't seen you in AGES. where are you??! hahaha. oh why am i happy that there's shit ah. cuz i already know how it feels like when there's no shit. but i wanna know how it feels like when there's shit! so that you know what you are feeling. and i also need to know how different types of shit feel.. like is it soft... hard... big... small... normal... abnormal... HAHAHA. ok think that's enough for the description. :D
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
happy happy! talked to him for around an hour, once again my angst has dissipated. yaaaayyy! huilin = angsty-no-more-(for-now)!
ahaha reminds me of nt and her angst :p. am i so easily influenced? oh no...
wanna see him. *pouts* :(
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
my foot's finally starting to hurt! the anaesthesia has worn off. pain is good.. pain is good....
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
oh, and i have some other stuff to add on to the list of "achievements" that i've had as a medical student during this holiday... (continued from previous entry)
7) felt a fluid thrill from ascites. really thrilling.
8) heard 3 (or 4?) heart murmurs! think all were systolic heart murmurs if i'm not mistaken.
9) heard a few lung crackles! and one of the patient had a fully collapsed left lung, and an abnormal right lung. terrible.
10) felt an irregular pulse. it was just... irregular.
11) learning how to do percussion. far from mastering it, but at least i've been introduced to it.
will add on if i remember any more things :)!

goodbye wart.
xun: omg!! that photo's like so crabby la! literally :). thanks, it really made me laugh. yea sure, catch up with u some day :). ehh u wont be in sg for CNY?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
just had my surgery today. dad excised a lump (viral wart) from the sole of my foot. think it was around 3-4cm in diameter. quite an interesting experience being the patient in ttsh after running around in the same OT for the past week as a medical student. will have trouble walking... no heels for CNY :(. sadness.
quite satisfied with what i've done as a medical student for this holiday:
1) sutured a 3 cm incision
2) assisted in a minor surgery
3) did 3 rectal examinations (one of which had shit in it, yay!)
4) took BP by the traditional method once successfully on a patient (HAHA. shows how lousy i am)
5) learnt stuff (both medical and more importantly, humanitarian)
6) saw dying patients, and felt loving kindness and tried to send it to them. :)
met wernie ytd. really refreshing to see her again after so long! even though she was kinda encouraging me to go into plastics and aesthetics (and to be honest, the amount of money earned is tempting), but currently i doubt i'd go into that field. yet again who knows. let's try not to moralise things.
thanks to wj and ajahn brahm, i don't feel the need to gossip so much (right now at least). but it's hard. environment, needs and wants dictate.
no reply thus far, again :(.
better prepare something rabbity for tonight!
[edit] ok so there's a mild improvement, but is that even considered an improvement, or simply mandatory? ok how woman of me (alright, more like petty). *grumble grumble whine whine* [/edit]

crabby
hey xun:)! ehh since when did you leave? just realised that u arent in singapore when i saw your facebook profile! how have you been? goodness i feel so out of touch hahaha.
hey jq:)! ahhahaha i'm doing ok at school, results wise. but all stored in short term memory. so hmm yea i need to review my study methods, that's why i need revision mah. saad.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
anyway. officially feeling crabby.
according to dictionary.com...
crab-by
–adjective, -bi⋅er, -bi⋅est.
Informal. grouchy; ill-natured; irritable; peevish.
gaaarrhh. nothing really big (as usual) that made me like this. it just happened that i got my period today, and i sincerely think my mood swing is partly hormonal. kept on telling myself: "be mindful, breathe, breathe, breathe."
whenever i finally stop being annoyed, something else will happen and the grouchy monster comes rearing its ugly head again.
gaaarrhh.
be mindful, breathe, breathe, breathe.

hellow fellows
hey blog! it's been a while. how are you?
how am i? i've been good, thanks!
wanted to read anatomy, but couldn't bear to open up the book. and i ended up blogging. SIGH.
after i got back from australia, i went to malaysia for my cousin's wedding and then to china. first to hainan for a mission trip, and then continued on to backpack with 4 other classmates to zhaoqing, dong guan, fo shan, guang zhou, zhu hai, macau!
too many lessons learnt. and the biggest lesson of all: be mindful, and to keep my mouth shut if i have nothing beneficial to say.
went for 2009 countdown at BF. interesting experience, and i enjoyed it. lots of moments to test myself.
dad's first day at TTSH today. so far, so good.
and oh, dear blog, did you know that my mom was a nurse? well, I didn't know! after living for 20 years then did i learn that she was a nurse for a few years before she got married. how strange, how strange. and my parents still don't want to tell me much about it. *gives off a low growl*
wishlist:
1) iPod (need to find time to go buy)
2) GPS (oh, my life, my everything)
3) happiness for you and me :)
my life in summary?
...good enough :).
