Blaa.. bla... blaaaa....

Looking at my timetable for this year... i seriously need to moan or else i'll go crazy!

Mon 1330-1700 clinic
Tues whole day restorative outreach
Wed morning PBLss and symposiums
Thurs afternoon another outreach or else oral surgery
Fri afternoon, clinics again..

This isn't the complete schedule...
Hav got another 3 hrs long of symposium in Northern Manchester General Hospital (NMGH) in some of the wednesday afternoon. Dont even know how far issit fr the dental hospital, how to get there, how long is the journey, etc etc..! Suppose to hav Wed afternoons off for sports- my only time for badminton, but our scl has been so cruel enough to rip my source of energy away.. =(

In the first few weeks, they r generous enough to gimme a day off on Thursday after draining my energy, but weeks later, they sneakily fit in a whole day schedule again with Oral Surgery as the start of the day! Clever! Giving me some sweets b4 slaughtering me..

My heart sinks deeper seeing some of my Fri mornings are occupied by either Oral medicine, oral surgery or Dental Casualty ...

The worst worst day wil b one of the Friday which i'm having:

9-1230 Oral Med
1330-1700 clinic

AND THEN....

1800-2100 MRI -hospital casualy!!!!!

Arrrrrh!!! i'm so gunna jump off the window!!!

24hrs a day is just too short! It's not enough. How am i gunna hang out with friends? When can i be a lazy worm, hide in my comfy bed, just stare at the ceiling, do nothing? Where can i dig out some time to watch some therapeutic dramas or listen to my favourite songs? What abt travelling? Do i still have the time and energy to explore? What about getting into a rltshp? I barely have enough time for my family, my friends, and myself, what's more towards sumone tat might need more of my attention? hm... forget abt it.

I know i shouldnt b complaining. I know many people working out there who have to work 7 days a week. I know medics are far more busier then us, so i should be thankful. I know i should be prepared to sacrifice. I hav even swear to my parents tat i'll forgo anything, including my life just to serve n treat ppl...

I'm not regretting.. I'm happy tat i'm still inching my way towards my paradise. I'm just feeling a lil tired.. So for now.. let me whine.. let me release all my hidden load.. let me sort myself out and i'll b back to the same ol' happy gal before dawn..

Fragrant Rice

Thank you so much to Dave for introducing such a wicked song!! It is soooo meaningful tat i cant resist to blog about it at 5 in the MORNING, sacrificing my precious beauty sleep! It reminds me of my childhood, my home, my school, my friends... EVERYTHING!


Below is the English translation:

"Fragrant Rice" lyrics

Composer: Jay Chou
Lyricist: Jay Chou

If you have too many complaints towards this world
When you fall down you don't dare to continue walking forward
Why must people be so weak, depraved
I ask you to turn on the TV and see
How many people bravely try hard to continue walking for their life
Shouldn't we be content with what we have?
You should cherish everything even if you don't possess it

I still remember you said your home was the only castle, you continue to run with the fragrance of the rice and the flowing river
Smiling, the dreams when you were young, I know
Don't cry, let the fireflies lead you to escape, the eternal dependence of the folk song in the country
Just go home
Go back to the happiness at the very start

Don't be so easy to give up, it's just like I say
For dreams you can't achieve, switch it for another and it'll be fine
Put some colour into your life, firstly paint the colour you like on love
Come on and smile, merit and fame aren't the goals
Let yourself be happy, this is what you call meaning
The paper airplane from my childhood, it's finally flown back to my hand now
That so called happiness, running barefoot in the fields chasing crickets and getting tired
Picking fruits without permission and getting scared from being stung by bees, who's sniggering?
I lean on the scarecrow while being blown by the wind while singing while sleeping
Oh oh, if the sunshine sprinkles on the road then I won't be afraid of being broken-hearted
You should cherish everything even if you don't possess it

I still remember you said your home was the only castle, you continue to run with the fragrance of the rice and the flowing river
Smiling, dreams when you were young, I know
Don't cry, let the fireflies lead you to escape, the eternal dependence of the folk song in the country
Just go home
Go back to the happiness at the very start

Wanna dedicate this song to my family members, caretakers, my childhood friends; JJ, Thien, YenJu, BK, fung, Otosan, Angie OA, Garret, Chu, dave, Doug, MenYe, Mun2,Sophie, Doris,LoCW, Sim, Sean, JW, SzeMei, SukTing, FuiYee, XiaoVun, BeeTian, WL, Yen Yee, Janet, Liang, Leon, Sarah, Mek2, YT, WJ, Kwan, all other classmates and teachers in Primary Scl, middle scl, College (6H, 5S1, IS), not forgetting all friends in uni, PL, AL, MW, Rach, wh, Angie, Tom, GG, Oli, both Grandpasss, K.Sau, fishie, Helen, Reem, Rosie, michelle, mikey, KW, Karen , Thing, Sum, Andy, Lin, Wendy, david, Adrian, Carol, etc etc...

Car Accident

30 mins ago a metallic black Mivi hit me fr behind whn i was on my way picking lil sis up fr Sunway Pyramid.. Was sooo confused for few seconds, then shock & angry after realising that i've just got into a small accident. Was so panic that i dunno wat to do.. Shall i get out of the car and give it a check? Shall i argue/ talk to the driver? But we're stuck in a traffic jam.. The traffic light half a mile in front was turning green.. cars were moving.. wat shall i do?? Remembered tat i've asked a friend earlier about what to do or how to respond if i'm caught in a car accident but nothing helps. It's too complicated... All i can remember was to memorise the number plate..

Was staring at the women in the car, as hard as i can! The cars got moving again, she drove pass and raised her hand, appologising.. Nevertherless, it doesnt help. I'm still mad! Cant she just drive carefully?!?!

Took a quick look at the bumper when i manage to find a place to stop. Phew.. Nothing serious, just a lil scratch. Off to home.

Told mum what has just happened but all i get was a big scold fr her! NO SYMPATHY!! Hey it wasn't my fault but she's blaming it on me and my driving skills!!! Of coz i'm not giving in!! So unfair....

Sigh.. this is not fun.. i'm still traumatized..



p/s: back to the question -- What can i do if i'm caught in an accident? Any tips??

NEUROTIC

A sense of depression is sipping in again.. Time flies. Dont even have enough time to just sit down and rest. The house is full. Many people are still around. Have passed all the exams. Been out a lot. Meeting friends, playing sports, dinners, movies.. Clinics are still bearable. Lots of things are on goin during this summer - Wimbledon, Glastonbury Music Festival, Euro Cup..
No ... NOTHING IS WRONG! ~ other then the crappy Manchester weather~
Why do i still feel like crying?!! prob tooo much of laughters recently that i shall strike a balance? or.. dust has been accumulating for too long that my eyes need a thorough wash??? arrhhh.. dunno!!

According to -365 Birthdays Interpretation- , I AM NEUROTIC! =.="

Tried to call home yesterday but the caller ID has expired. sigh..
Sent mum a text and got a reply saying that she's givin sis a bawl for waking up at 11.. Poor gal. No way to rescue her..

Had a hard time in consult clinic this afternoon with a support worker. The lady was talking on behalf of a schizophrenic patient (Mr X). A simple history taking and examination took me more then an hour to complete! That woman was so reluctant provide the patient's history at first, claiming that she has been through all the questionings for so many times in other departments. After an argument with the consultant, she has got no choice but to obey. Half way through the history taking, she was complaining that she heard the consultant back stabbed her outside the room, in front of the staffs and students. At some point i was thinking... who is having Schizophrenia actually?
However, i felt happier communicating with Mr X. He sounds optimistic & cheerful. Talking to him is like chating to a kid. So adorable! It was a good experience after all. ^^


Well.. we're definitely enjoying our summer.

Went paint balling with our dental schoolmates. Came back with bruises everywhere. It was super fun tho.. No pain no gain! Poor Alex got 5 shots on the same arm... ouchhh!




Was so bored after clinics. Peilian suggested that we go for a walk in Plat field..



~'New Housemates' in action!~ Dinner at Toby Carvery, serving typical English food ^^
SOOOOoo lucky that i've got thm keeping me occupied =D




Met up with dear Michelle on Sat. The weather was perfect!


Wendy sis is here for a month. Eric moved out on Sat. Thomas is away, travelling with his family. Everyone else is in bed..

1 more month to go......................................

Missing M'sia? or Manch'er ?????

It's Hard to Say Bye

Many frens are graduating this year and leaving for home. Have been saying lots of goodbyessss and take care recently and everytime, it's depressing.

Woke up earlier to watch Kathy off this morning.

Julie is moving back to London tmr and KaWai came up to give her a lift. We drove all the way to Leeds for dinner and met up with Mikey. He has been working 7 days in a week. Without much rest, he looked drained. It was a pain in heart seeing him aged... [NOT THAT HE'S AN OLD MAN ok.. but still...]
It was great catching up with Mike and he treated us a dinner. Visited his cash and carry before we left for manc again.














































It is really hard to be parted with friends, especially close frens that i've known for years. Dunno how much more i can take before bursting out like a baby.

Anyway, life still has to move on. I sincerely wish that everybody will be successful in their courrier and achive whatever they are seeking for. Hopefully everyone wil look happy and healthy by the time we meet again.
