i made my first maggi mee myself for lunch just now. and omg wad a tricky task!
to start with, i'm so glad my mum was boiling some fishball soup before tt so the stove was already on. i am so afraid of lighting the stove man. for some reason, my stove's kinda spoilt so u gotta use a lighter to light it. so scary la. wad if burn ur hand or wad if u drop it into the fire after lighting it?? it'll like explode in my face man.
so anyway, it's was so difficult to squeeze the instant paste out cos the steam's so so so hot!! and i tried cracking an egg into it. no problem there. but after tt i dropped half the eggshell in cos it was so hot. man. :/ so tricky. tsktsk. nvm i'll conquer u next time mr maggi mee.
i know i can do it!!!

today's cvs prac was fun man. i almost tot the mannequin patient was real! anyways my daddy called just now and asked whether i wanted to rush down to watch another stitching but oh wells. decided not to la. cos my mum cant drive with her hand like that! tho she kinda sneaked out just now and drove to the get some groceries (driving against my daddy's orders..tsktskk..hurr) but she told me regrets it cos it hurts. but it was so funny la cos she said she spotted my dad's car on the way back so she sped back but when my dad came back he was like, "i tot i saw ur car on the road" haha. :P hees. i love my family man. and my bro just got a new job! which is cool. :P happy for him!! YAY. he's got so many things to memorise though. poor poor thang. he was showing me his module book last night. but oh wells. THANK YOU GOD!
webo @ 3:36 PM

it's so awesome ya know? u can even programme it to a certain time of the day and it'll automatically on and vacuum/sweep/clean ur floor.
and my mum was telling me that there's this special ironing cupboard thing tt u can just hang ur clothes in, switch it on and ur clothes will be automatically ironed straight.
MAN the wonders of technology!
haha. aiyo think i'm becoming so aunty..discussing household appliances!
hurr..
webo @ 8:11 PM

my tutorial for the weekend is so THICK i have no idea how i'm going to finish it!

anyway had a really good day yest cos we celebrated the oct babies (seeyun, gen, liz) bdae at cafe cartel (raffles place). rushed back for my pract session after tt (was 15 min latee..but nvm) anyway, i will update abt the lunch when i have the time cos trying to squeeze everything now wont do justice to tt fun lunch.

oh wells. i'm tired!! have been helping around the house tho i wished i could do more! like help my mum to iron cos her hand's still recovering..but i cant cos i can never iron any clothes straight. so oh well, just help to wash dishes and blah. last night i scrubbed a pot so hard but it still wouldnt get cleaned and i got a backache from standing and washing it. man. i wonder how my maid tahans all this man. cant wait for her to be back from her vacation!!

on another note, eunice's and my trip to uk has problems! we cant get a ticket back to sg until the 10th! and my school would have started by then. bummer man. :( and we cant leave on boxing day as planned. only have tickets on christmas day. we're on the waitlist now. so we'll just see how it goes. i've this ominous feeling tt it wont work out though :(
webo @ 11:06 PM

woohoo..our uk trip's becoming more and more a reality! in the process of getting air tickets now and now we're going to york too to visit NADSIE! :P

haha. yay. today's a fun day! after tutorial, eunice picked me up in her awesome lexus and we went shooopping!! :P seriously, eunice's lexus is so so cool. like when u reverse there's like this video camera thing tt shows up on the screen dashboard. like wow.
so yeah..anyway shopping was pretty unfruitful..cos we didnt noe wad to buy!! shant elaborate later i spoil surprises. ahha..anyway we got around it..so there.. yes i'm being ambiguous! HAHA

so anyway, eunice, being the nice her, went home to get her laptop after her lunch at acjc before picking me up! so we spent the rest of the time at taka's kfc doing our trip research..which was really FRUITFUL! haha. finally getting a headstart. :P

so anyway i'm home now and i've kinda just started on nuceotide metab for tmr's tutorial. think i cant finish it tonight mann :( cos my maid's on holiday so i've to help with houseworkk..ahh..so waste time.. oh wells..at least i didnt have to clean the tortoise shit today! WHEE hehe.
ahhs. i feel quite behind time..plus i keep getting distracted by the comp!!
OH WELLS gotta run :P tataa
webo @ 10:10 PM

yay. think i have enough for the trip with eunice! :P haha. ok..actually my mum's very nice already to pay for my airticket and i still complain so much. bad debo! :(

anyway, yay so justin's finally back! met him aft my looong day of lessons and just got home after dinner and dailyscoop! yum :d
webo @ 9:38 PM

i just realised that there's just one more week for thorax and then next week we'll be into abdomen. omg. i havent even started reading anything abt thorax. or heart for tt matter. gosh gosh. sighs and tmr's gonna be a loong day too.

feeling so emo now cos of the london trip. my mum says i've gotta use my own cash for the hotel and expenditure there and she'll just pay for my ticket. O.O
now..she didnt tell me THAT when she asked me to find some kaki to go for a holiday with. like ??? sighs. nothing gets me more stressed out than $. tt's why i hate $$ so much. gahs. sheesh.

firstly i hate counting. u have no idea how i enter into a sympathetic mode (fight/flight/fright mode) everytime i have to count coins to pay the uncle for my 65cent peel fresh drink at the canteen.
secondly, cos i hate counting, i dont know/cant rmb my bank balance and i am sure it def is not enough. my mum's response to that is 'cut short the holiday then'. sighs. it feels like i'm just going there to salvage my mum's input into my airticket and every other expenditure (tt would be on my account) amounts to naught/is not impt. wads the point of flying there, just for a few days to save on accom money when the airticket's so ex too.
thirdly, i really dont mind paying but tt would result in a loss of my hard earned 'financial independence'. man u dont know how good it feels to not have to ask for extra cash. :( spares me all the scolding.

sighs and i have to work out my freaking budget before my mum will confirm the airtickets and i dont have time to scour the damn internet to find work out the itinerary/find hotel now. i can barely even finish my work. and time's ticking. by the time i have the time to do that, there'll be no more tickets left. :/

boos :(
webo @ 11:30 PM

gosh, i'm missing justin so badly right now. :(

monday come quickly!
but not too quickly cos i've got this blood assesment thing which is counted and i'm totally unprepared for it :/
i feel quite out of touch with my work!

anyhow, stayover at church was fun and meaningful and i really learnt a lot from what rev ong shared abt 'how to not commit idolatory in giving thanks'.
we cant thank God if we have no deep and spontaneous regard for Him as a person. like what jonathan edwards wrote in the excerpt that rev ong printed for us- it is like how we will not be honoured if somebody thanked us often for our gifts but had no real regard for us as a person.
and to bring the analogy to a different level, all our declarations of thanksgiving are like the gratitute of a wife to a husband for the money she gets from him to use in her affair with another man if we are not captured by God's personality and character.
http://www.desiringgod.org/ResourceLibrary/Articles/ByDate/1995/1550_How_Not_to_Commit_Idolatry_in_Giving_Thanks/
above is the link for the article and i highly encourage all to read it.

i have to admit that i am guilty of not truly thanking God for who He is sometimes. it's kinda hard to explain but you know i think we're all pretty guilty of it cos we do tend to rattle on "thank God for giving ME this..blah blah, thank God for that..blah blah", with emphasis on the gifts and not God, if u get my drift.
anyhow, i feel that as long as we are aware of this human tendency, we can now avoid this and truly thank God for his mercies upon us!

had combined yf games today as well. was not bad. :) and i thank God truly for the fellowship and getting to know out fellow 'spiritual cousins' from the other bp churches as pastor heng put it. i really enjoyed pastor's sermon and now i know the origins of our bp church much better. :)
i must admit that i USED TO think galilee's service was a little offbeat and boring cos we dont have drums and all that but you know tt's really something untrue. on the contrary, i'm so thankful that God has allowed me to grow up in a church that appreciates hymns. and now as i grow older, i'm beginning to understand the beauty of the hymns we sing and how much theological meaning there is in all the hymns. they're just so meaningful and God- centred!

i love my church! but most of all i love you GOD!
webo @ 12:39 AM

played handball today! omg i really love where i am now cos the pple are so nice and i'm studying interesting things! :) i so so so have to thank God for all these man! ahh..God really's so merciful to me! sometimes i wonder why he loves me so much. it's hard to understand but that's the way God is i suppose. :) merciful, loving and kind. :P

anyway, i liked today's PBL man. medical ethics. so complex and rather mind boggling and well sometimes irritating cos tt's arent as simple as black and white but it's very interesting and fascinating. i guess society sometimes just makes everything so complicated. in the past everything's just done in with a paternalistic approach but now with advance in society and an increasing number of pple with knowledge and vested interests, things get complicated. and there's so many things to consider even before saving a life...like whether tt person has expressed his/her wish not to be saved and blah. sometimes i just wish we could just save lives and forget abt all the gray areas and legal issues that might arise. (i cant stand pple suing each other btw..esp over small things. seems rather childish. but tt's the way it is i guess *shrugs*) :)

on another note, justin's coming back this MON! :P
haha oh and i signed up for salsa on mon too. HAHA omg. :)

I have always wondered
How it can be done, to pick the one
Who's gonna be my lover for life, my baby ♥
Be there to hold me through the night
When it happens you can see it in his eyes
They tell no lies, brighter than the sky in July, my baby
Cooler than anyone I've known
webo @ 8:46 PM

finally i got to work out today! HAHA for once i actually was conscious abt wad muscles i was using and how i was extending or contracting them. :P

anyways, CA is finally over. i've been stressing quite a lot over it even though it's just 5% and was just 20 MCQs but yeah i dont like to do badly and i need a confidence booster! thank God for seeing me through it. dont know what i'll get but at least it's OVER! :P
webo @ 10:07 PM

oh my goodness. i feel like i'm on drugs cos i keep yawning and my eyes keep getting watery.
ok. back to anat now..
webo @ 11:59 PM

helloo everyone. i'm happy today for a change! :D haha
just got back from church today cos i had a meeting for the sunday school camp which is happening in dec. well so anyway, school was not bad today. :)

i prayed last night before sleeping that God would grant me a fulfilling day at school and he did.
had lunch with kevin and hannah at megabites! talked abt trying to strike balances and coping with school work and all the church activities. i guess that's what's great about fellowship because there's encouragement from one another to keep close to God. and tt's really impt for me because i honestly find tt pretty hard cos i get so distracted and lazy easily. i've skipped prayer meeting and yf last week and i thank God that i've church frens who constantly remind me that striking a balance can be done! like jasmine, jaime, yvonne, kevin, hannah, lydia..etc.

so anyway today's like a total break from the antisocial zombie days i've been having. i'm quite happy. my meeting in church was pretty fun too. jasmine, hannah, lyd and daniel were there when i reached and everything's just so relaxed :) and hannah's yanyan biscuits were funny. like it read 'chicken- kokakokoke' or smtg to tt effect. then after tt shelia, josiah, gwenyth and yvonne arrived.

oh wells. wad a great day! THANK YOU LORD! tmr's a long day for me. public health screening and then yf. give me strength LORD! and strength to study too cos my CA is on wed and i'm pretty dead. :(

P.S. my dear nadsie wadsie called me from the UK today. :)
webo @ 11:50 PM

man i'm trapped in a cycle. my body clock is really so so so screwed. i get home and sleep the whole day and then try to study at night..but it gets really hard cos i keep getting distracted by facebook and msn and then before i know it, 12midnight hits and i feel damn guilty abt not studying enough. so i try to study more..and end up sleeping at 4+. so i wake up late and miss the beginning of lectures and get damn blur abt wads going and have to do more catching up. :( and cos i'm so so tired cos of the 'late night', i sleep the moment i get home. and the whole cycle repeats.
oh boys. really cant go on like this man. boos. anatomy CA is next wed. gahs. omg now that is counted.

my life's getting pretty meaningless nowadays man. esp since justin's far far away. man. it gets lonely. fortunately, there's eunice and michelle in lectures with me. man. when they leave for aussie, i'll be damn damn sad. they're prob the only pple whom i can relate to the most. the other pple i hang out with are pretty nice too. but sometimes i cant help but feel we're of pretty diff frequencies. well guess it cant be helped, since i've known eunice since p1 and i've known most of the rest of the pple (minus kevin) for just abt a month.

which reminds me..LIZ u almost got me damn screwed. stupid girl. BLEHS. boooboo head!

on a happier note, eunice and i are going london/eurotripping this christmas! :P liz cant go. :( boohoos. we're trying to get michelle to go too! and so yeah tentaive plan is to meet nads in UK, if she's not flying back, and hopefully yams can fly down from the US to meet us in the UK. den we can take a train to france/paris (i didnt noe they were the same place man till eunice and mich told me. omgawd) since yamsie can speak french! but still waiting for yams to reply my facebook msg! hmm..mann..really hope this trip works out!! if not it'll just be sandcastles in the air...booo.. well..but i've gotten the green light from my mum, and eunice got hers. so yeah. fingers crossed. God- willing. yeah. :)
