Anorexia
It's sad how anorexia can cause pretty girls to look emaciated, pale and ghastly.
Really really ghost like! It's scary...
They think being skeletal is beautiful and why?
Because people have commented that they look fat or that they have put on weight.

So think twice before you ever make such comments, or you may drive someone to adopt such delusional perceptions!

Psychiatry is really boring!!!!
Why do they have to plan stuff all the way til late every day?
Why must they have so many lecture style sessions?
Tutors are droning during lecture and it's damn boring!
Patients tell you they have symptoms of every psychiatric disorders and I dunno if they are lying.
So that sucks, cos my history taking gers very messy!
grrr...

Psych med is for the slack and psychos

I just changed my blog skin!
any comments?

My Friend

I've a friend who is sick!

She has got a bad sorethroat.

Look at how bad it is... hai..


Guess why she has a sorethroat?
Cos she has been eating fried chicken wings everyday for the past 4 days breakfast, lunch, dinner! SHOCKING!
Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner


Hai.. Horrid!
Not only that!


She ate fried chicken and fish and chips for dinner today!

In addition, she went

Yak Yak Yakity Yak the whole time!

And so she allowed the monster streptococcus to invade her throat and give her a sore throat!


Terrible eh?
Don't you think she deserves it! heehee..

P.S. Spageddies has 1-for-1 offer for UOB card. Definitely worth it!!!!

Psychiatric Medicine
Just 2 days into Psych Med, and I feel the whole psych family is so wholesome and nice. It's as if all the nicest people in the world are found in this department. From consultants, to the MOs, even the secretary are really nice people! Considering my bad experience with a secretary at one of the smaller hospitals, this was a pleasant surprise!

On the first day, the secretary at NUH set the cheerful tone by giving us free kit kat and dove amicelli (yumyum!) cos we helped her fill up the AVIAN flu contact list. Wow!!! And she is always so smiley and friendly! The technician at NUH also always sits in, and laughs at the profs' funny jokes during lecture together with all of us! He must be the happiest technician I've seen!!! :)

The psych profs at NUH and SGH are all so friendly. It is the first time that I dun feel pressurised and small in front of doctors. They treat you as equals and are ready to joke with you at any time! They don't treat us as lowly medical students! It makes me feel more at ease so I'm more willing to ask questions and am less afraid to make mistakes when answering questions. That should be the way doctor-student relationship should be...

Today, we had a talk by a pharmaceutical company and free packet breakfast! I sitting in an awkward postion cos it was cramped with an extra seat beside me. The secretary, after serving us food, moved the vacant chair away and said, 'Make yourself comfortable and eat more!'
She then turned to sirui, 'You don't like coffee or tea? How about juice or water?' Amazing!!! The secretary was really so nice that I felt a little uneasy. We tried to offer the profs seats at the table, but they refused and sat at the back instead! Argh... these people are amazingly nice!!!

I've lost count of how many times I said nice, but they really are NICE!!!! Super nice!
I love psych so far! Interesting cases and thought provokking theories! :)

Anyone with excess of either can donate them to me. I NEED both stress and dessert.

i think i may be allergic to alcohol now. either that or my stomach has refused to accept this poison.
i drank 1 small bottle of heineken cos everyone in my family (except my sis) had beer for dinner last night, and it would be impolite not to drink right? heehee..
so just one 330ml bottle caused much disturbance for me today!
firstly, i had nausea and malaise. the nausea lasted all the way til lunch.
after lunch, i had rumbling stomach. it just kept churning n mixing n swishing! i tot something was living in my tummy!
i decided to go to the toilet and tot i had gotten rid of the swishy thingy. but it just kept irritating me all day! sickening...
hai.. no more alcohol for me!!!

hey din i have 2 glasses of wine the day before and nothing happened?

ok no more beer for me then! :)

I hate poker!
sucks.. esp when i think i have good cards, n confidently place my bets, only to lose by a slight margin in the end!
super unlucky!

so i after i lose big, i get bullied cos ppl will use their earnings to bet alot to scare me into folding even though they have no good cards! they also keep show handing me just to see me bankrupt!

those who win big cos they are lucky, are really sickening, cos they will hoard the cash, and keep folding when they're not blinds.

sucks sucks sucks! hate the sweaty palms and palpitation feeling when playing too! if it's anxiety followed by winning, then of course will feel shiok. but when u're anxious, then lose big money, u're feel doubly shitty!

argh, keep losing money this chinese new year! think i'll stick to watching others play..

i'm not stressed about studying.
I'm more stressed about not being stressed about studying.

mug Mug MUg MUG!

Happy Early Chinese New Year! :)

Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
and there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

There's just no rhyme or reason
only this sense of completion
and in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I found my way home
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

Happy Day

I love my mac! :)


Here's my ibook glowing in the dark :)

Think I'll get the BLACK macbook during the next matric fair! Yayness!

Adventures at Chinatown



Yesterday was the day when Backpacker Darren, Red Indian weng and Lok Kok Dehan decided to make trip to lovely chinatown to take in the festive mood of Chinese New Year!



It was the first time Backpacker Darren visited the famous food street of chinatown. He was eager to try everything! But alas, a tight budget restricted him to try only the char kway teow, which he later exclaimed to be disappointing.





On leaving food street, Backpacker Darren found himself in cookies heaven! The thought of an entire year's supply of cake bangkit caused him to drool so much, that all of Lok Kok Dehan's 3-ply tissue paper was used to clean up all the slobber. Sigh.. But a moment on the lips, a lifetime to the hips. A glance at his expanding girth immediately threw that thought out of the window. Red Indian Weng was just happy posing with 1 box of cookies.






Red Indian Weng learnt how roasted chestnuts are roasted with coffee to give the wonderful aroma, and how chestnuts actually look like mini spiky sea urchins before they are processed!


She was equally excited about the ang moh who is dressed like a ching chong china man, and sells sausages to the long queues of people who come to gawk at his fascinating outfit! Try to look for him when you're in Chinatown!


Lok kok Dehan then found the Fortune of God and held him tight, cos when fortune comes knocking on your door, you must not let it slip by you.


Red Indian Weng was more amazed by the big head doll and how alarmingly identical it looks like her!



Since it was the Year of the Pig, we had to end off the adventure with a few poses with cute pigs.

It was a fun evening for Backpacker Darren, Red Indian Weng and Lok kok Dehan!
Happy New Year Everyone! :)

Lessons learnt


1. NEVER take friends for granted. Be nice to them even when you are not asking for favours.

2. NEVER assume that since you're fine with the things others do unto you, you can do the same unto others.

3. RESPECT others' privacy.

4. Have your fun, but do NOT go overboard.

5. Always be SENSITIVE to the feelings of others.

6. Sensitive topics should be AVOIDED.

7. EXPRESS your displeasure gently should your friends go overboard. Never keep it to yourself or they will never know your boundary.

8. TREASURE your friendships. Never do things that will jeopadise an otherwise wonderful friendship.

9. It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation and only one bad deed to lose it. THINK thrice before doing anything stupid.

10. TRUST is mutual. Keep secrets entrusted to you as close to your heart as you would your own.


i'm sorry :(

Renjun's niece is so cute!!!! Her name is Lauren and she is 3 years old.


We spent the whole afternoon playing n teaching her new phrases like 'doggie style' n crazy horse'.. heehee.. She speaks with an american lilt cos she stayed in US for a year.
Darren and i were her favourite ppl :)



Ren jun's new house is also damn big and super nice...totally like a resort.. we should all camp there some day! New country club:)

It's a amazing how one can be happy with friends and having lots of fun,
but when alone with lots of time to be pensive, the mood changes and there is this empty, sunken feeling right at the bottom of your gut.
Do you feel that way?

I do, sometimes.

And all thoughts will come rushing into your head, with so many questions you can't answer.
I don't answer them. I just avoid them.
Which is why I try not to be alone these days.

Heads up!

Things aren't always the way it seems..
Sigh :(

I had a beautiful dream last night.
It felt so real that i refused to get out of bed when i woke up.
I lay in bed so that i could wander off to dreamland to continue the dream. :)

This enjoyable sequence happened a few times before the howling wind disrupted it!
I had to finally get up cos the freezing wind was so unbearable even tho i wore my snuggly jacket and hid under the blanket.

HOrrid Wind!
Shall close the windows tonight. :)

St. James!
