Infatuation...

I'm having the exact problem as Jeff with the 'naming' of the title for entries.... i guess i'll just randomly put words that i can think of at the moment when i put the entry... if there isnt any word i can think of, just leave it blank...

Today has been an idle day... sleeping till late evening.... woke up and cooked a meal... then the whole night is spent on chatting and (occassionly) reading books..... Gosh, got a lot to read....

The temperature in HK has dropped markedly today... Dear friends, do look after yourself and take care~

Tomorrow is going to be the first time i work in the LA clinic (for extraction and surgery....), now got a mix of excitement and nervousness.....

I start to hate removable partial denture as the concepts are too hard to understand.....

I have no idea why i'm still writing the blog in times which i should well be sleeping.... maybe i'm really as what Ceci said of me.... I'm infatuated with something?

I wish i have the time to chat with my dear friends....

WUS Reunion

Forgot to put this in my last entry... i'd like to thank Ceci for spending time to chat with me last night.... it's great that i can talk to somebody who can share my worries.... Thanks so much~

Um... today is another busy day... woke up at noon and went out to CB for the reunion of my previous chong... our old habit of being late kick in again (i felt this is quite familiar though).... but most of us did show up in this reunion (all except Sam....).... it's been great seeing them again and have some really great chat with them... Do keep in touch, buddies~

Went back to Hall in the afternoon for the Halloween party... this year i dressed like Dracula, which is a pretty scary look~ Had some fun and play till late night.... i'm totally exhausted right now....

PS. I have uploaded some of my recent photos to my photo albume. Do check it out~

Happy Day No.3

My would be ordinary Friday has unexpectedly transformed into a marvelous day...

Woke up so reluctantly from sleep in the morning and struggled to school... i am 'supposed' to have class from 9 till 5 that day.... the year 3 and 4 students have been arranged to a lecture given by a clinical psychiatrist on how to deal with stress and cope with patient kind of stuff..... i ran into my senior, Anne on the mini bus ride and told her about my class, the instant response from her was that i should skip it and head back to hall and sleep.... i thought that's a lurcative proposal but then considering my attendence record for this semester i have no other choice but to show up....

I was in the lecture theatre sharp at 9 but there are only a little more than two dozen people there.... Isnt it true that there are around 100 students from both years?? Where were they?? I didnt have much time to think before the speaker start her presentation... the presentation itself is not too bad, but the date is really awful... should there not be such an interruption in between my holiday and weekend i could have a 5 days holiday..... darn.... the speaker was foolish enough to take a break in 1030 and everyone i know packed up and leave the venun in unity.... we end up having Breakfast in McDonald.... it's the first time i had McDonald breakfast since i entered Hall.... in schooldays i'll have no time for it coz i'm too late for school... and for non-schooldays i'm just too lazy to get up for breakfast.... so.... afterall, it's not that bad to attend the class today.....

Went out to Mong Kok with my classmates for no reason... just dun feel like getting back to Hall to sleep... we hang out in the Langham Place for a while and i gave Wendy a call, knowing that she's in Mong Kok also.... meeting her for lunch and after that we went to shop for the Halloween costumes.... got a really nice vampire costume and she got a dark angel look... which is great~ We had dessert before we part and i was on my way to buy presents for my friends~ I went totally crazy when i'm trendy zone today.... Disney just released a new product line of halloween figures... including Mickey and Minnie, Stitch and Marie..... just cant stop buying them......

Later i went to TST to meet with my beloved sister, Kathy... we got tickets for movie and enjoyed a stroll in the shopping mall.... she's changed quite a lot since i last saw her.... but this time she only became more familiar to the sister figure in my memories.... probably because she got her hair dyed black again? All i can say is that she looked gorgeous that evening......

The movie, "Home sweet home" was okay.... (i dun pay special attention though as i was too tired...).. as a local produced scary movie i think it's acceptable.....

Went to dinner at a Japaness restaurant.... we chatted and chatted for so long about all the things happened to us lately, both dental and non-dental..... just feeling glad that i have such a good sister and congratulations to sister for almost completing her degree.... (i still got 3 more years)

When i'm walking Kathy home in mong kok i ran into some dental classmates, and horace is among one of them... finally ended up playing arcade with him.... what a buddy...

Kennon is back to hall again (and the activities that he play best).... i didnt wanted to do mahjong that night so i went to chat with Ceci.... knowing that a lot has happened lately.... um... just take it easy.... during the chat we're invited to go for 'early tea' with the O camp group..... i end up only getting back to continue my blog at 5 something.... and tomorrow i still have to meet with my WUS chongmate for an reunion.... i guess i'd better be sleeping now~~

PS. These few days have been running really smoothly.... just hope that tomorrow will be the same.
PS2. When a person is drunk, he/she looks more cute than usual.

Happy Day No.2

Got another brilliant day today....

Sleep all the way till noon. Waking up to have lunch and got back to PPDH.... met a lot of Dental juniors from class 2010... I went to movie in the afternoon with Wendy and Elisa... we saw "FlightPlan" in IFC.... which i think the movie is quite good, it accurately show the tension in the cabin during flight in the post 9-11 days... and the acting from Jodie Foster is great as well, she clearly demostrated how a mother would be when their child is in danger, the kind of helpless, the maniac, the hysteria.... just great~

Took a tram ride back to my home... it's been ages since i last took the tram... we did some shopping in Wellcome and got back to hall where i have my chance to cook again.... on the menu we have the Steak in Japaness sauce, Grilled Fish Fillet, "Swiss" style Chicken Wings, spaghetti and veggies..... that's probably the best meal i cooked ever.... Yummy~ (forgot to mention i have cooked a chinese soup as well.... not a bad try this time~)

Have been doing nothing for the night afterwards.... Sometimes it's good to take a break and clear my mind....

Starting to love Minnie the Mouse....

PS Looking forward to Happy Day No.3 tomorrow~
PS2. I'm supposed to have class 4 hours later... but who cares?

Happy Day.

Woke up in a hellish state... struggled for long before finally going back to school for class.... during the course i saw many of my classmates, who are also running late for their class... i guess it's really due to the fact that the lesson is just too useless and boring.... but i'd say i'm lucky that i didnt miss today's class as missing it will cause serious complications in the upcoming few weeks..... so nevermind, just a lesson spent leisurely......

In the afternoon i casually grabbed a McDonald meal for lunch (as i'll too tired to eat anything seriously...) getting back to hall to settle some matters then i went out for TST for the interschool swimming competition (originally)..... i took the MTR to Central when i gave Wendy a call, she too was in Central that we have arranged to meet (not so arranged as i just pop out from no where when i saw her in HMV)..... we've chatted and spent some great times in HMV before we move on to the Starbucks in Alexander House...... we've found ourself a real cozy sofa to sit in and when we're talking carelessly about all sort of topics, Wendy just spotted the prescence of two very strange individual... who on earth will wear a sunshade in indoor.... idols do..... they're So Wing Hong and Chui Ho Ying (Wife of Eason Chan) with her baby daughter~ They are just one table across and we can hear everything they're chatting.... it's quite a funny scene~~ It's been a really pleasurable afternoon.... (it's so pleasure that i finally didnt go for the interschool swimming.... sorry peter and sam~)

Talking about the swimming result.... La Salle came in overall second, which i think is quite an improvment when compared with the past.... but sad enough that our rival school has captured all 3 champions in A, B and C grades and securing their overall champion's place.... Never give up LaSallian~ Next year will be your year, i am sure of it~

Got back to Hall and i went out almost immediately for the reunion of the O camp group, we're having dinner in Mong Kok.... we've got Lowell, Jennifer, Cecilia, Doll, Charles, Fu, Katherine and Winsy for this gathering... we became so hyper during the chatting.... it's been a great day~~ too bad everybody is kind of busy with the exams coming up that we couldnt stay longer..... maybe next time then~~

I'm now back to the Hall and many of the ex-floormates had come back and were staying for the night..... with so many friends back we just had our happy conversation like old times..... and i end up not sleeping for 2 days already..... i guess i'd better be sleeping soon before i pass out... write later~

PS, Movie tomorrow.

Time for study?

It turns out that i didnt have the momentum to do my studies in the morning... sleeping all the way till noon..... only wake to cook myself a lunch and i'm on my way to school again....

Attended the classes without any preparation..... tough time..... it's the last lesson in the module which we had our evaluation on the performance in class..... i once had the feeling that i'm not going to pass this module..... but then my result are much better than what i have expected... dont have the slightest clue on it....

I am working on a very hard IQ question lately.... if a person cant do his study in the morning, and need to attend school in the afternoon, feels too tired to read once he get back to hall and finds too many temptations to distract him from studies.... then when is the best time to do the revision??? Answer needed.....

I met Sister in PP today... we're going to have dinner on Friday... got so much to tell her~~

Work out in Gym in the afternoon..... my whole body is soaring but somehow i liked this feeling.... it's a feeling that you have paid your effort.....

Can't sleep tonight, just dun feel like sleeping.... Ceci was around and we chatted for so long.... it's so great that i have met such a good friend....

PS. whether to do it intentionally or unintentionally.... i chose the later...
PS2. I like movies~

Great feeling~~

Never feel better than today in the last few months already.....

I had a chat with my cousin last night (meaning almost 6 in the morning....) she's doing quite well in England right now... just wish her luck with her upcoming exam....

By the time i fell to bed, i had a strange feeling and i turned to check my schedule.... gosh... i have mistaken the dates.... i am supposed to have a full day of class instead of just one in the morning.... my original planning of napping in the afternoon and studying were all vanished at once.....

Barely sleep for 2 hours and i went to Queen Mary hospital for lectures.... this lecture is the identical one with a year 2 lecutre, but i somehow missed that one in year 2... so it's a very good chance for me to make up for my laziness in the past..... it's a very hard lecutre but then attending it is quite worth it (it's mainly microbiological stuffs).... had lunch in QM canteen where i ran into a lot of different old friends (all medical students though)..... i saw Kevin, my chongmate in JIC, Calvin (LaSallian) and Jenny (O camp groupmate).... it's been a great day there~~

My body surrendered to the tireness when i got back to hall that i slept for 1 hour..... travel all the way to PPDH for class at 2..... we're stupid to be there so early as the tutor also went late.... today's lab is a rather simple one as there's nothing much we can do.... we're just there to observe... it's not that bad as it may sound, the procedure of casting the metal frame for denture is actually quite interesting.... and the good thing about today lesson is that at around 4 we gotta wait till the agar impression is cooled down and set... so we have an unexpected tea-break.... it's really cool to chit-chat in the common room, eating McDonald meals, while others are diligent having lessons..... (Horace suggested today, he said, "If all school days are so free like today then it would be a perfect school life." but i disagree with what he said, "If life is like this, then we're most likely not going to make it to Year 4!" Sarcastic? somewhat, but in some sense it's the fact too.... Gotta work hard.....)

A phone call can mean so much.... it's a really pleasant conversation.

I'm at hall right now.... i guess i better sleep early to compensate for the lost of sleep last night.... and i still have to wake early for the preparation of PBL case tomorrow morning..... write soon~

Getting serious....

Didnt have to mood to put entries here for the last few days.... my thoughts are quite unorganized and chaotic that i dont know where shall i start with.... nevermind, i'll just scribble somthing here... (To Janice: this may explain why my entries are getting longer and longer.... i am writing less often and i just write things i wanna write randomly without a goal....)

Okay, my mind is on something lately... it's getting me quite frustrated but yet i am sure i'll try my very best on it.... i am quite a different me lately... just wanna share with others but that might become a disaster considering the circumstances.... well.... i hope i'll have to chance to writ it here when the time is right...

"To the world you maybe somebody; but to somebody you are the world." This idiom keep poping up in my mind.... what's happening?

Alright, back to the chronological order of what happened over the weekend....

Friday, full day lesson.... it's as usual that i missed my alarm completely again (due to the lack of sleep)... but then this time i'm smart enough to have asked somebody to wake me up.... just wanna express my gratitudes to her..... without her poping up to wake me i'm sure i'll sleep till late afternoon that day and i'll be in another grest trouble.... anyways, thanks~

Working in the Dental Techology Lab for the whole morning doing something that's not part of my job.... nevermind, learning process.... that's how they call it..... so tired after the lesson....

Afternoon.... treating the patient again... my performance on the root canal thearpy is not so good.... lack of experience maybe? but i was under a lot of pressure from my tutor.... worse still, he's going to be my tutor for module 2 as well.... shit....

Forgot what i have done on Friday night..... i guess it might be gaming and watching ball games.... all i remembered was that i sleep really late that day....

Saturday... only woke in late afternoon... that's supposed to be the open day of HKU.... but i just dont give a thought on it and i spent my day watching VCDs.... watched the very famous Schindler's List by Steven Spielburg..... the tone of the movie was so heavy that after watching... i really dispised the act of the germans during the WW2.....

Sunday.... finally started my revision..... it was not effective but i still manage to read through the chapters regarding tooth extraction..... i still have a lot to prepare for my PBL cases on next Tuesday.... gotta work harder.....

That's about it... it's now 5 am on Monday morning and i got labs to do at 10.... better be sleeping right now.... write later.

PS. When you intend to do something, things just gets harder somehow.... but i am sure i'll work on it no matter what.... wish me luck~

Day in campus....

Have been really busy but yet happy lately.....

Wednesday.... woke up later than usual (at least 40 mins late) and have to rush to school... on my way i met many of my classmates who are doing the same.... the year 3 syndrome maybe.... when it comes to lectures or practicals we usually ran a bit late so as to accommodate to the custom of tutors running late as well..... nevermind..... the lesson was quite good when we're seeing the demostration on real patient from the tutors... but when it comes to the real hands on work in the phantom head... diasaster.... we're not eager to work in such a way...... poor effort actually.....

Struggle hard and finally decided to get back to the campus and attend the broadening course..... it's quite an interesting lesson..... it talks about the funeral and related issue in HK.... after the lesson i started wandering in the campus.... meeting a lot of different people.... it's been a while since i last visited the campus.... many of my friends are surprised by my prescence there.... spent the afternoon randomly chatting with everyone i know and at six i walked Winsy to the bus stop and got back to hall (it's quite special about winsy that she's the only one who have seen me 2 times in the campus this year....)

Back at hall... feeling tired but doing nothing productive..... later that night was the mid-year evaluation of the SA excos.... wasted me some precious sleeping time.... i simply left in the middle of their evaluation and sleep....

Woke up on Thursday late again.... rushed back to the hospital and have lesson on sutures..... it's one of the hardest subject in OMFS but it's also the most used technique there..... really have to learn well...... i just knew that it's not too difficult to tie up a wound... just a simple surgical knot would do... but to do it nice and clean and without scar.... that's really something.....

Went back to campus (again) for reunion of the Hall O camp group there..... happy to see so many seldomly seen faces... tried my best in the library for studies (though i just cant focus for the whole day that i slept for an hour while i was studying.....) it's a productive day afterall... i'm happy to meet Sally and Jonathan in campus today (another surprise)...... Dinner with Horace.... went crazy and eating non stop in sushi house.... spending some 140 dollars each in exchange for a really full stomach.... Went to have dessert again (and my newly formed habit)..... mango sago dessert.....

Getting back to hall.... floor meeting.... then have late dinner with this year's Hall O camp group... most of the group grand children show up for the event and it's another happy gathering.... when i finally went back it's already 3 in the morning.... then i went to find Wendy and Elisa for some chat (and giving tutorial....) and that concludes the events happened in my last 2 days.....

It's 5 right now and i guess i'd better stop writing now.... still got patients to work on tomorrow..... write soon~

Disturbed Sleep Pattern....

Feeling ill on Monday again... what the heck is going on? Woke up with dizziness... poor timing.... especially when i'm trying to put myself into studies.... but i still managed to get back to school... the lesson was as usual a boring one.... trimming of a custom tray for my patient... but something really weird happened during the lesson.... i accidently got a cut from the handpiece... that's sounds normal but the cut was on the right hand (which is my dominant hand and the one which i'm holding the handpiece) (an analogy would be you cut the back of your right hand with a knife while you're holding the handle of the knife with your right hand....) i still cant explain what happened that day... tough luck maybe??

Got back to hall immediately and fell asleep.... must be the effect of the drugs.... while i'm half asleep... i heard somebody knock on my door but i was just too tired to answer that (later on i found out they were Wendy and Elisa....) sorry about that..... and you can find me later~

Waking up later that night to cook myself a real good late dinner... did a little bit of reading and sleep again~~

Tuesday.... woke up with pretty much the same feeling of Monday.... when i went to the minibus stop i ran into Wendy and Elisa (what a coincidence~) which we took a cab together to the hospital.... run into my sister in PPDH too.... it's been some time since i saw her~ PBL lesson in the morning... i didnt attend the PBL lessons for 3 weeks already (or maybe more)... it took me quite a long time before finding the right room for class...... boring and boring lesson.....

I have been summoned by my personal tutor as i have skipped too many lessons.... simply blathered some reasons and i'm lucky that i have evaded the punishments..... but when a person lost his integrity.... what is left in him?

Nevermind... it's been too much.... just wanna watch the match between Bayern and Juventus later tonight.... shall write soon~

Monday, October 17, 2005

Lot of deadlines...

Didnt do much today.... by the time i woke it's already late afternoon.... but still manage to flip through a few pages of my removable partial denture textbook before going out with my floormates for dinner.... all-you-can-eat hot pot..... it's so much fun having that when you're with 30 young lads.... basically all the food that you dumped into the pot will disappear within seconds (without caring if they're well cooked or not)..... really have to 'fight' for food..... i'm with such a full stomach now ^^

Feeling that my life is back on track again.... just hope that this time i can keep such momentum for life.....

Recently fall in love with desserts..... especially those with mango...

Heard a good old song today....

Making love out of nothing at all - Air Supply

I know just how to whisper,
and I know just how to cry;
I know just where to find the answers;
and I know just how to lie.
I know just how to fake it,
and I know just how to scheme;
I know just when to face the truth,
and then I know just when to dream.

And I know just where to touch you,
and I know just what to prove;
I know when to pull you closer,
and I know when to let you loose.

And I know the night is fading,
and I know that time's gonna fly;
and I'm never gonna tell you everything I've got to tell you, but I know I've got to give it a try.

And I know the roads to riches,
and I know the ways to fame;
I know all the rules and then I know how to break'em and I always know the name of the game.
But I don't know how to leave you,
and I'll never let you fall;
and I don't know how you do it,
making love out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all

out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all

Every time I see you all the rays of the sun are streaming through the waves in your hair;
and every star in the sky is taking aim at your eyes like a spotlight
The beating of my heart is a drum, and it's lost and it's looking for a rhythm like you.
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
and turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright.
I've got to follow it, 'cause everything I know, well it's nothing till I give it to you.

I can make the runner stumble,
I can make the final block;
And I can make every tackle,
at the sound of the whistle,
I can make all the stadiums rock.

I can make tonight forever,
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn;
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made,
And I can make all your demons be gone.
But I'm never gonna make it without you,
Do you really want to see me crawl?
And I'm never gonna make it like you do,
Making love out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all
out of nothing at all...

Better be sleep now (though there's no class tomorrow).... better to live a normal routine of life.... Shall write soon

Determination and Concentration Required....

I've put myself in a cant-be-worse situation on Friday morning..... i accidentally skipped a lesson that i must not skip (i did not intentionally do it.... just cant hear the alarm clock... i've got 3 alarms rining but i still cant hear any single one of them)..... it's supposed to be a clinical session and i am expected to have seen the patient and taken some of the infomation from them..... for the upcoming few weeks i'll require such infomation to formulate the treatment plan.... now with the omission of the first step, what am i supposed to do next???? Headache.....

Attended the class in the afternoon.... continue to treat on my disaster-strucken patient..... after the last week's magical treatment (Pls refer to last week's entry; i'd say so as i suspect my tutor's instruction was based purely on Voodoo or his creation)... i have somehow managed to return the tooth's condition to a more familiar one.... at least look like one of those i'll see in the textbook...... didnt do it quite well actually as i failed to get one satisfactory radiograph even after 4 retakes...... shit.... shall i do it again next week??

Later that afternoon i had a drink with my friend winnie, she's quite fine and she seemed to have found her path.... no matter what, just try your best la~~

Went to work out afterwards.... it's really been a while since i last visit the gym room..... cant even perform 70% of what i'm capable of when i'm fit... Really need to work out more often in order to keep in shape.....

Later that night i went to visit Kathy, who is now living in the new hall.... the room in the new hall is quite good but it's a lot less fun than the hall i'm living now as the people there simply treat the place as a sleeping quarter (pretty unlike the people i knew in hall).... nevermind, just different cultures..... we then went out to Sai Wan to have dinner (without realizing it's already 10 something....) we cant find a place with decent food.... that's why we end up in my home cooking our own meal..... it's quite rare i'll ever cook at home (i cook more often at hall though)... luckily the dinner is eidble.....

Then the night i was in hall again.... reluctantly put myself to sleep at 5.... at that time i still think i can have a productive weekend....

This is where the problem start... i spent the whole saturday doing nothing (pretty much the same every weekend, only this week is worse as i have the sense of studying but i can never do it).... just some chat with floormates, watching a few ball games and playing sudoku..... sigh..... i have now cleaned up my room and did my laundry.... i just hope that once i woke up 8 hours later i can still do some study before i'm distracted..... finger crossed.....

It's already 10 in the Sunday morning, i'll sleep now.... write soon...

Time for study?

I've lost something.... i've lost the time for study..... can anyone find it for me???

Today's class is another ordinary day..... Extraction..... something that's easy in concept but much harder in clinical practice..... require unlimited session of hands on work before one can become proficient (can i be the one?).....

Did you know a full mouth extraction only require one elevator (Lindo Levian Medium) and 4 Xylocaine LA solution? (the latter is optional if you are really pain tolerant~ LOL) Any who question the truthfulness of this statement can find me the elevator and i can perform it for free ^^ (i'd love to have real extractions anyways)

Had lunch with Horace, cant believe this 'sai jai' is really quite adaptive.... come on man, support you ^^ (he might be saying the same to me though)

Fine tuned the laptop a bit and was too tired (as i didnt sleep well last night) that i spent my afternoon for sleep.... by the time i wake i was fussed with all sort of stuffs (non stop telephone calls).... what the heck.... put everything down and went out to have dinner (with horace again, nice chat with him again).... had dessert afterwards.... i did something that i havent done before.... buying take aways for some hall mates.... i bought one for my Master (part of a game that i'm the guardian angle of somebody, who dont know who i am), one for Cecilia (for thanking her to cheer me up yesterday), and for the two dental juniors Wendy and Elisa.... (for... dunno, as a compensation for keeping them till so late in their last visit?) when asked about why i did such thing..... i suddenly have this thought on my mind.... if my action can give others happiness, why not do it? Maybe i'm just too gloomy lately that i want to see people around me to be happy and smile~

By the time i got back to Hall it's already eleven something.... hang out with Wendy and Elisa for a little longer (to give "tutorial" to them as they're asking about their PBL problem.... feel kind of ashamed as i forgot/did not even read about their topic in my junior years.... cant teach them much >.< I guess it's time i concentrate on my studies.......) End up doing nothing for the night..... Things just cant work this way any longer....... Need time to study ar!!!! (Physical constraint, class start at 8 in the morning.....) even if i sleep now, i only got 4 hours for sleep.... what a vicious cycle......

Nevermind, i'm just complaining.... shall be fine soon~

Thursday, October 13, 2005

Cramped.....

Suddenly have the feeling that i'm overwhelmed by the pressure school has given me...... tonnes of write up coming up..... not to mention the need for study...... i chose to flee from it.... avoiding my books completely..... spent time on things that i could have done later...... well.... classic example of procastination....

Had the lab lesson on Monday afternoon.... just dont have the slightest clue why i need to learn such things as i can employ somebody to do it for me when i'm in private practice (and they work far more efficient and better than i do).... just a waste of time.....

Later that night, went to prince edward and have a drink with Sally and Jonathan..... too bad we can only meet for such a short time..... we shall meet again soon as we do have a lot to chat.....

Spent the rest of the night on games..... wasted....

Tues, it's a public holiday, and my life is no better..... another wasted day...... i tried to read for my lesson on wednesday but somehow i finally gave up.... just lacked to intention...... things became even worse when i made up my mind before sleep to skip the class completely..... ha ha, i do enjoyed a good sleep....... but i guess i'll have a lot of explaination work to do afterwards....

Thanks to Cecilia, whose surprise visit greatly cheered me up..... chocolate is the best cure for moody symptoms ^^

Finally got my new laptop.... it's quite a good one..... i have spent my whole evening then tried to customize it..... it's quite a time consuming task..... i started to relate the way i fix the computer with personal relationship..... if you want something to fix you, you got to spend time on modifing it, same as with other person, the only way you can know and understand about others is to spend time with him/her.... there are just no short cuts....

I think i'd better be sleeping now..... shall write again soon.

Sudoku day....

Have been doing nothing since i woke this afternoon..... Recently fall addicted to the simple, but attractive game Sudoku (i'm sure you have come across it in newspaper or in other form somehow)...... been playing it all day long on www.websudoku.com ...... i am now working on it's medium level... still got to master some of the skills so as to make my time better......

Later tonight i was visited by 2 dental juniors who are living in my hall, Wendy and Elisa. We started the visit at around 2..... we chatted and played all night.... talking about all sort of stuffs, dental, hall, chong, friends and love.... by the time i look at the clock again it's already some 7 in the morning.... i cooked a breakfast for the 3 of us and that ended the visit..... i was once again in my room, seriously planning whether to take the lesson in the afternoon (which is a lab lesson that i can take on Wed)..... and i am in doubts whether i am fit for the inter-faculty soccer match against Architecture later this evening..... seems that i'd better start sleep before i plan~~ Shall write soon~

PS. It's true, Wendy do look like Cecilia Cheung in some angles...

Being lazy...

I've been lazy that i didnt even bother to put entry here...... these few days is more or less the same as an ordinary week.... pretty busy... and pretty lazy as well....

Thursday.... First lesson in my most loved discipline, the oral and maxillofacial surgery, although i am only learning simple extraction, i still admire the work by the surgeons..... really gotta work hard.....

Thursday night.... first time to get back to Hall after recovery.... played a little and chatted a little with my floormates and being visited by freshmen..... that made the day....

Friday, another new discipline, Orthodontics, was in action..... saw quite a lot of new stuffs..... and in afternoon.... the worst lesson in the week..... torturous clinical lesson under F Chu.... what i did that day.... got my treatment sequence deliberately altered just because of his preference.... became totally helpless in the clinic as i was working on a supposedly specialist work... got scolded (that's the only usual part) and forced to use some 'imaginative' method (method that lacks the support in dental literature to restore my patient's tooth..... what a miserable day.... (nevermind.... i'll just treat this as a bonus.... it's just part of the learning process.... i shall be happier thinking in this way....)

Was half dead when i got back to hall..... but it's a good ole friday i didnt waste anytime but to start gaming with my floormates.... i'm surprised to see the freshmen are quite enthusiastic towards the Age of Empires...... played all night long.....

Saturday.... worked as a volunteer for the dental public health campaign..... pretty tired but it's quite a valuable experience.....

I'm still thinking whether to help them out tomorrow.... let's see.....

Feels like..... Dying~

Has been sick for the previous 2 days.... fever, headache, chilling sensation...... all those you can think of when describing illness applies on my case..... i was so sick that at some instance i really thought would that be the same feeling when i die someday? It's been a really terrible experience....

I am a little bit better right now.... i started the feel unwell once i woke on Monday afternoon for class (i intended to wake earlier to do my catch up but i failed)..... Sitting through that 3 hour lesson was so painful as i felt the fatigue spreading all over me and i just simply cant concentrate... my fingers are cramped and i can tell i have some disorientation in my speech as well..... my groupmates all told me that i looked terrible on that day..... well.... somehow managed to get back home and i started to sleep.... i kept dreaming about all the bizzare things (the after effects of paracetamol?).... i was so weak at that time that i can barely open my eyes.....

By the time i wake again it's already Tuesday afternoon.... crap.... missed 2 whole lessons.... the faculty is gonna chase after me for the excuse letter..... didnt bother to think too much that after dinner i started sleeping again.....

Woke for Wednesday lesson.... feeling better but still with some temperature.... skipped the afternoon lesson (the broadening course) for a hair cut..... and continued my sleeping business once i got back.....

Finally have some time to sit leisurely at home..... i was able to watch a few TV shows after dinner tonight.... just watched the season finale of the 11th Season of ER.... John Carter is leaving the County General (again?)... will he ever come back? Or it was just as Kovac said, "We part, so that we can meet again." Just cant wait to see the new episode of this brilliant TV drama.....

Friendship~

It's been another long day today....

Woke from my short sleep and started the day.... Did something real bad as my first thing in the morning, eating in bayview canteen..... it's a surprise how they manage to keep their quality of food at such a low standard consistently for such a long period.... argh....

Went to Wan Chai as the interpreter..... quite sleepy and bored..... not doing a good job as the topic is really out of my scope (and interest) as well.... The governence in HK.... um.....

Went wandering in Mong Kok afterwards.... accidentally ran into some of my grandchildren who were also doing nothing in MK....

Caught a mini bus with Sandy to ride back to hall (i intended to get off at the belcher's but i forgot to do so as i'm chatting with her)..... nevermind.... got some of my softwares and got home again....

I arrived home at around 10 when i start working on the computer.... use several methods to try to fix it but the efforts turn out to be useless.... finally giving up and use a simplier method (but more time consuming).... use the boot disk and repair the windows manually...... it worked.... but by the time i left home it's already 1 in the morning....

Got back to hall and settled several floor matters, my official role as the financial secretary of the floor is finally over "whew" and i took up the post as the pantry manager.... the first thing i need to do is to draft the schedule for boiling the floor soup every week....

Being visited by Sandy later that night..... i can feel a lot of 'myself' in her..... it's a strange feeling but through the conversation it seems that we know each other a lot.... talking with her is so pleasurable..... sometimes building up friendship is just that simple.....

I'm about to sleep now as i gotta wake at 9 or 10 tmr not for class... but for some unfinished business with the cast last week (which mean it's not compulsory...... though i'd really like to get up in time) I shall write soon~

Am i working too slow?

It's now 630 in the morning.... ever since i woke up at 10 last night i've been working (on all sorts of mo liu stuff that need to be completed....

Finally have the floor financial report ready.... ran into deficit as expected..... nevermind.... dunno wanna give one more single thought on this....

Did my laundry tonight... which i ran into Ceci in the laundry room.... it seems ages since we last met... i took the chance to have a long conversation with her..... it's great~

Reorganized my mp3 and photos in my computer.... now they're nice and neat....

Just found out that whenever i want to sleep by a certain time.... i'll always end up sleeping some 2 to 3 hours later than the expected time..... it's really a bad habit (just before i fall to my bed i'll always remember something that i havent done properly during the day that i'll need to work on)...... maybe it's really due to my way of getting things done.....

Nevermind, it's quite late at night now.... i'd better be sleeping.... tomorrow still need to do S.I. in the afternoon.... write soon.

Forgot to mention~

Just forgot to mention this in my last, rather angry post....

Thanks so much for the John Doe who put the two lovely Disney figure on my table while i was away on Thursday night..... may i know who's so kind to me? Simba and Peter Pan look great~

Surprise

Life is always full of surprises.

Had a relatively normal life these few days..... Thursday.... once again the tough lesson in the morning (especially tough as i didnt have enough sleep the night before)..... my tutor, Dr. Lai is right about one thing..... just 5 years of dental studies cant make a person to become specialist in any field.... there just too much to learn in every single discipline.... how about the passing mark for graduation? All i want right now is just an pass and plan till later~~

Spent my originally free afternoon in the dental lab and work on a study cast.... i would say my act is not totally necessary but just feel like doing it... maybe something to do with my perfectionist style.... having a faultless cast is also beneficial to my studies anyways..... (while sacrificing health as i'm supposed to sleep at that time)

Finally went to pick up my mobile phone..... all my contact list is gone now..... anyways, just took it as a chance to wipe out all my past memories.

Had dinner with mum and dad and my uncles in Tai Koo Shing that night.... just heard that my cousin is suspended from school for a while... well... just work hard Janice.....

Got a new pair of leather shoes for work.... they look great~

Went back to home and tried to fix the computer (without any success.... still gotta work on it)..... i was too tired half way through the repair that i collasped and slept all the way till the next day....

Originally i wanted to finish my cast on Friday morning.... but then by the time i woke it's already noon..... just went back to school earlier than usual and did some preparation....

The hellish clinical session was scheduled on friday afternoon..... and our group had the worst lesson in our whole dental career (a relatively short one though) that day..... our tutor was on a pretty bad mood that day who act as though he is suffering from bipolar disorder..... scolding every single one of us for no reason.... i was asked to do things that are not even required by the faculty..... who the heck do you think you are?! Got nothing more to say than a F word.... (i start to wonder why somebody from our group can be such a hypocrite.... JUDAS)

Learned nothing in the lesson actually as my tutor just sat his fat arse in my chair and took my patient.... i start to concern the progonsis of my patient's tooth after his treatment.... a composit core for crown preparation? just weird... dont let me catch you have done the wrong things on my patient... i'm sure i'll get you sued.....

Later that night, have an reunion with many of the ex-floormates.... we had hot pot in the olympian city... it's been real fun seeing them all again~

Just regretted to see that some of the University graduate can sell all their soul for just $400 HKD..... what a joke.... dont ever let me see your ugly face again, leave alone calling yourself as one in our 14th Floor brotherhood as you dont even deserve it.

We went clubbing at club Nu in central afterwards..... that place was really not recommended.... it's way too small and the atmosphere was bad (and the gals are... no comment)..... when clubbing next time i guess i better stick back to the Edge or Hei Hei club... it's a really much better place to hang out.....

Feeling sorry that i missed a visit appointment with one of my grandchildren..... sorry~~

Went back to hall with dizzy heads and continued drinking again.... was way too exhausted that i slept midway during the gathering.....

Just worried about the interpretation business tomorrow.....
