moved.



for good?


(: we'll see. toodles blogger.com!

exhilarated!

YAY! Labour weekend is hereeeeeeeeeee! Weeeee~~~~ long weekend for all of us yayayayay!

ANDDDDDDDD..... 1 more week of school before my LONG AWAITED 3 MONTHS OF HOLIDAY!!!!!!!!!

AND!! My pregnant lady gave birth 2 days ago to a super adorable baby girl RUBY!!!
Super high. =="

hahaha. (:

As light as a feather.

Quotes from some patients I saw this week:

"I'm scared of putting on weight."

"I'm fat."

"My weight? I'm 44kgs now." (BMI=15.3)


"Dr. X says I need to get my BMI up to 21.0, but I don't think I'll be able to. I've never been that heavy all my life."


"Yes, I purge. Everyday."

"I cycle, swim, gym, dance, run everyday. About 2 hours a day?"


"I like being skinny."



"I can't have any children, which is what I really regret."

Seeing real people suffering from eating disorders is still unbelievable for me.

Yes, they're THAT skinny, they're REALLY afraid of putting on weight, they restrict their meals to the EXTREME, they PURGE every single day, they're most keen to vacuum the carpets, clean the handrails of stairs, go for 2 hours walks instead of half hour, and yes, they have LOTS of physical problems including hiatus hernia, vitamin deficiency, osteoporosis, amenorrhoea (no menstruation), infertility, anaemia, some electrolyte imbalance, depression, suicide intentions etc.

I'm astounded.

If these people are in treatment because their eating disorder and them being too skinny, how about models and celebrities? Don't they need to do something about themselves too...? Aren't they merely anorexics on the loose? They're harming themselves...

*ASTOUNDED*

WORD CHALLENGE on facebook!

I'm so hooked on this game, and I just got my high score of 11,767! It's the highest I can get HAHAHA so dumb right!? And.. I doubt I can possibly beat that score again, so I PrintScreen-ed this as a remembrance of my honorable moment! Tada!!! Opera Singer's ability!!!

I think any of my friends playing this would've easily beaten this score hahaha but I dun care! I'm happy with my current high score yay!

*lalala!*

yeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaa!

This blog's getting dusty again! *blows dust off*

So I'm PERMANENTLY back in Dunners for the rest of the year (before flying back to the singa-land)!! Hurrah!


3 weeks of Psych in Invers was actually not that bad, apart from having to sit my ass through hours of driving to and fro during the weekends. My bum has officially gotten used to getting stuck on the chair!

while watching drama on my computer. james' huge as headphones! 我就喜欢！ LOL.

I actually typed out 5 paragraphs (very very furiously!) on my bad experience back there with a certain doc , but I've decided to scrape that. It's wrong to speak ill of someone, despite my bad experience with him. Apparently every student who did their evaluation with him had the same kinda mistreatment, so I guess it isn't just me. I'm just really glad that it's over and I'M FINALLY BACK! :D

Started my 2nd half of my Psych run at another clinic, and I'm SO BOREDDDDDDDDD. Everyday I get there all fresh and bright and energetic, but things just go so.. ssslllooowwwllyyy there I just get so drained! >< style="font-weight: bold;">Presentation tomorrow! Hope it goes well for me. (: And our practice OSCE exam on Saturday.. damn. Not even thinking of studying for it, but I'll turn out to be the stupidest and laziest student of all!! Howhowhowhowhow. Aiyah, procrastinate and study on Friday! Lalala. 3 more weeks to 3 months of HOLIDAYS!!!!!! Woopie!

I'm so slack. But I like. :D

jess doing fake-study. my hair's so much longer now! *beams!*

can't wait for it to be really long so I can tie my hair up in anyway I like! siao zha bor style, chun1 li4 (street fighter? the gurl with super muscly legs?) style, elegant bun.. whatever lah.

will blog again soon! *:)

OUT!

BACK FROM INVERS!!!

I LOVE MY WALLPAPER! ISN'T HAMMY CUTEEEEEE? :D jon gave it to me yayay!

HI ALL! I'm back from Invercargill for the weekend! :D Yup, I'm doing half of my psych run there for 4 weeks.

VY offered to drive SS and myself and we headed there on Wednesday evening. Invercargill greeted the 3 of us (myself and 2 other colleagues doing Psych at the same time) with a crying grey sky. How depressing. The weather kinda stayed the same until this morning! The sky was pastel blue, though cloudy, but no rain! Hurrah! (:

BUT. Bad weather got blown up to Dunedin. So now Dunners has grey sky too. And fog. Great. One of my colleagues say bad things always come from Invercargill. Or do they not?

Now I've got 3 weeks left there, since our clinical attachment started only on Wednesday. So far, so good. The doctor's residence is uber warm, a computer lab w internet access, the bed's comfy (though a tad smaller than my own!), and it's close to the hospital. BAD thing is: the walls are so thin it's as though they're not there at all!! I can hear every snort/fart/cough/shuffling/turning of pages (GEEKS in the house!!!) lol. It's a good thing my neighbour don't understand mandarin, otherwise he'll be getting goosebumps all over his body when he hears me talking to James LOL. kidding lah. jess got so 肉麻 meh?!

HOSPITAL.

The hospital itself is small, but very modern and new! I really like it! And I heard the muffins at the cafe is AWESOME!!!! Must try that one day! (erm, rural practice, jess? ... nah.)

Though I must say that without a car, there really isn't much I can do around here.. Okay okay, it's just me being lazy!!! I should stop being lazy and start walking to the hospital for free shuttle to town! There are famous bush walks and horse riding and all things to do in Invers as well. Next weekend, maybe. Might not come back to good ol' Dunedin.

ANYWAY! I was there for 2 days and got right outta there to head back to Dunedin hahahaha! Just cos' mum and jon are still here in dunedin, and.. the bf is here too ^^. It's crazy how lonely you can get in Invers, despite your colleagues right next door and on the bottom level. For the past 2 nights, all I did at night was had dinner, shower, use the internet, lie on the bed, and wait for the bf to call! Not studying? Yeah, jess is sick, and gets really really tired after 5pm.. So, she just rests and talks to the bf on the phone lol!

So glad to be back. Reallllllllllllly. :) DIM SUM WITH THE FAMILY AND JAMES AND LYDS TMR CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!

OUT!

CATS the musical!

CATS the musical WAS AWESOME!!!!!!

Even though I haven't read any of T.S Elliot's poems before (especially those from the Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats), ANDDDDDDDD.. the fact that I've got cat-phobia (i really really do!!), the impulsive act of getting tickets for the 4 of us was absolutely worth it!

We watched this all famous musical by the Dunedin Operatics Inc., and I must say they really did a good job. I was impressed. (:

The music, the dance moves, the acting, the costumes............. AND the singing! :D

I loved every single aspect of the musical!

I love musicals! Now Janice and I have the passion to perform in such musicals!! I want I want I want! Hahaha. :D If I have the opportunity and the time, I definitely would go for auditions. LOLLLL. I guess this will always be a dream....

the opening scene - cage with a tattered poster with a clown which jon was SUPER SCARED OF. lol!! he covered his face till the whole cage had been (slowly) drawn up. poor jon.

Tickets are FREE, 3 iPod shuffles up for grabs, and free mooncake and nibbles after!! (:

da fix.

so this afternoon, i got my almost-daily coffee at the cafe close to the hospital. Ordered the usual - trim latte.

then waited for the coffee lady to shout out my order.

"regular trim latte with one sugar."

i quickly said thanks (in a rush!), but then stopped as that sentence repeated again in my head.

"trim latte with one sugar."

hmms.. talk about being healthy. tried to be at first, but failed in the end haha.
