medicine.

Hello all. I’m glad it’s the weekend at last.
Tan Tock Seng’s a beautiful hospital, all air-conditioned and newly renovated, with a good food court, decent eateries, and shops that I actually want to buy from. There’s Kirei Kirei, with pretty Japanese goods and snacks!
My clinical group ended the day at 4pm, so Penance [...]

duck rice

Today’s a restful day at NUS/NUH where we just need to attempt to communicate. I went with some CG mates to the South Buona Vista duck rice stall (best braised duck in Singapore!) and was rather shocked and amused to find a valet parking system in place because that eatery is so crowded during lunch.
Oh [...]

1st real day of year 2.5

plhu: I’m scared.
masque: So channel that fear into something. There’s no way you can live with that oppressive feeling gripping your heart all the way.
Well, I have come to realise that a significant part of the clinical years depends very much on your initiative. (And which hospital you’re posted to, I suppose, but to a [...]

the performance

First day of eclinics: rather boring day of lectures from 7.45am to 5pm.
The performance at the Hilton was quite an interesting one. (After pulling my hair out over what to wear and borrowing shoes and clothes from people, I eventually ended up in my own dragon top and black pants.) Since it was the [...]

an elven warrior?

I went to Settler’s Cafe with some of my anat group mates today; we played Settlers, Zombies and Munchkins. I’d love to try Citadels next time. Philemon and Julian were playing another card game ‘cos they came after we had started the first game, but theirs looked quite fun. I reaped abundant card harvests during [...]

what’s squirty?

Today I had my hair cut at Chapter 2. I love having a shampoo because of the head massage. There was a bit of miscommunication, so I ended up with a shorter hairstyle than I’d wanted, but it’s still nice. After that I had time to kill, so I headed for the Heeren to see [...]

it’s never going to be okay

I just watched Gundam SEED Destiny 26. I like the new EP, the graphics are all so happy, and the song itself is very pleasant, though the lyrics are sadder than the melody.

St John’s Island.

I went to St John’s Island today for fun. Remember that field trip that Mrs Chua took us on in Sec Three six years ago? I fell in love with the beautiful, lonely little island and decided to go back again some day. So I have, six years later.I’d meant to go earlier but kept [...]
