Healthy life.

Have been living quite a organized life this week..... and attending all of my class... (that's sounds new to me)

Monday, originally dun have class but Dr. She just given us one make-up class at 10..... could have sleep for a little longer but decided not to as i wanna spend some time with her... we travelled together back to school and i just took a nap in the common room before class.... the class that day was killing again... just lots of terminology and works.... make me feel more and more miserable towards orthodontics work..... maybe i really need to flip through some pages before i made the definite judgement... but for now i just feel that ortho is not my cup of tea.....

Had school till 1 in the afternoon..... only briefly had lunch in the canteen and have to work again, this time in LA clinic... was on a solo again, luckily i have decided not to take up the additional case as the one i am working on was so complicated (to me).... just lots of unhappy events took place that afternoon..... failure of local anaesthetic due to dentist technique (yea, that's me), incorrect application of elevator, nervousness.... o well.... out of the 3 teeth for extraction i can only manage to pull one out.... and the worse thing is that the tutor came and within 2 minutes he got the other 2 and discharged the patient..... gosh, he is my idol..... OMFS, the only place i wanna be after graduation......

Was too dead after the long day that my mind was floating when having dinner (sorry~) (and probably i have got a cold again).... Slept at 8 that night....

Sleeping fully prepares me for another day.... Tuesday, a useless PBL case and i am free for the whole day.... i spent it on study with the newly formed "3.6 Study Group".... it's not too effective as this is the few occassion that we learn together and from each other.... but things will work out soon... just glad that we're on the right track for studies finally.... (Also to note, this is also the day that the 3 guys of us, me, horace and jeff, all coincidentally slept in the tutorial room... not a bad event to mark the establishment of the study group, right?)..... study study study.....

Just one regret lately.... time is really not enough... wanna be with somebody when i'm physically locked in the library~

Anyways.... write later~ gotta sleep soon.... better before 11..... tomorrow is going to be another long day.

PS. Absent from school do have it's hidden cost..... i gotta work the whole day to clean up with the mess i made from not attending class.

Productive? Or not?

Have been working over the weekend, didnt expect the project for the broadening course will take me so long to complete...... i should have just scribble something and send to the course director as i never need to worry about the grades (as long as i pass the passing mark of coz)....

Was woken up at 3 on Saturday afternoon by my floormate (who happen to be my project groupmate)..... have been working on the project since then...... waking up from such a shallow sleep is killing.... can never concentrate after that brief 4 hours sleep..... by the way just feel that i havent written any academic english since promoting to University (lucky? some what...) now writing a 500 word report is already killing me..... leave alone the online assignment that require me to write a whole lot more...... nevermind.... finally making the deadline (handing in only 15 minutes before the midnight deadline....) enjoyed a good sleep afterwards....

Sunday, did something that i would not normally do... going to library for studies.... i must thank my groupmate for making such initiative (but that should happen more frequent tho)..... originally asked to meet at 10 but only able to gather at 11.... nevermind, it's not a bad start.... but i would really prefer to wake a little later such that i will not sleep in library for the first 2 hour to put myself together..... staying for 4 more hours afterwards, reading something that i should have read in year 1 or 2...... i now realize why some of my patient complained previously.... o well, everything is in part of the learning process, right??

Have been unproductive since the library closed...... going back to home and rest a little, caught some tv shows and then do the shopping..... coming back to hall at midnight and chatted with friends..... this routine must be changed soon.... if i can at least have 10 percent productivity that i currently wasted, i am sure i will not have to pick up my books again for a very long time...... sigh.... when can i do it??

Saturday, November 26, 2005

All due respect.

Just been through several mood swings in one day.... got quite a lot to write right here.

Once again became the no-show in class.... skipping Dr. She's Ortho clinic again.... should i continue this way i might very soon live a fugitive life in the hospital.... sigh... (but still glad that i didnt show up for today's class.... from 9 till 1..... useless "professional" seminar.....)

Popping up in the hospital for polyclinic.... finally a seemingly normal class in this bizarre week... successfully finished what i planned to do at 4.... it wasnt long before Dr Chu came and told me to do some other procedures on my patient..... okay, i then worked.... it's not an easy case but luckily i wasnt under the 'close' supervision of the tutor (literal meaning of close.... his back touching my back....) cant finish the case before 5 but just temporarily dress it with IRM and have to wait till next week for some mild oral surgery (to be done by tutor anyways...).... everything still seemed fine until one of my groupmate perforated a tooth on his endo case.... the atmosphere of the clinic changed so rapidly.... he's under stress and the assisstant looked as though they could kill.... Dr Chu was no better.... all the 'other' students can only stand aside and see how things are going, each with a strong desire to leave first but nobody dare to ask under such circumstances.... by the time we leave the hospital is already one hour late than usual....

Quickly got back to hall and dress up (thanks tony for the ironing) while facing pressure from different groups... but just wanna say that money to me is nothing, if this small sum of money can buy someone's dignity, i never have to have second thoughts but to see you lose face... when some people, after 4 years of University studies, still cannot prioritize their options and blame that on other people.... yea well... what more can i say.... what a disgrace....

It's the annual dinner for the Faculty of Dentistry tonight in Happy Valley Racecourse, everyone is dressed in their best suit and it's quite a joyful night.... just too bad that Mei didnt come tonight or else our group can have a really great night~ (someday we are sure that class of 08 can win the beer drinking competition.... with me and Horace and Jeff, just no better combination than the trio of us in dental....) (For the less experienced drinker, just take care of yourself.... worried)

Went to some bars with our group first and then later joined the others in LKF.... never expected a wild night there can be so fun..... maybe we're all too stressed usually? Clubbing is always fun but seeing others drunk is not such a pleasant case.... especially when you feel you're the few left who are sane enough to escort them back...... well... overall a great night anyways~

End up travelling with Horace and Jeff.... we intended for a chat but it later transformed to a drinking party in campus (Hon Ki joined us some time afterwards).... What a wonderful chat with them.... it's the first time we have sat down like this and chat... just some causal topics but still with roars of laughters~ heard of something quite meaningful from them tonight, "Year 1 will never understand how life in Year 3 is like." True, very true indeed.... solutions?

Originally wanna drink the hell out of our lifes.... but turn out that everyone got something to do the next day (today).... nevermind.... just dunno when the next time will be......

Currently 'still' working on my project.... due today and i guess i'd be better to scribble something to them.... enough blathering right here..... write later~

PS. Getting sick of myself (and also people around me) being emotional...
PS2. I seemed to lose myself...

Updates.

Long time not writing here. Been very ill over the last few days that all my works came to an halt (including my schoolwork), deadlines are still looming closer and closer....

Just dont bother to write much here as i've been a biggest fool tonight... I'm sorry.

Interesting day....

Had a rough night last night.... unpacking my things at home and get them organized till 7 in the morning.... had lunch at home and went out for fun...

First time, getting to Shatin... Went there for movie, watched a Jap film called "Nana", which is a film about 2 girls who shared the same name, having a totally opposite character, end up knowing each other and live together, and have encountered some roughness on their search of their loved ones..... i didnt have much expectation towards Jap movie but this one really changed my mind.... the organization of this film is quite good and they way they film it is marvelous.... and the songs are great too (try to search for the song "Glamourous Sky" by 中島美嘉) (one more thing... the more i look at 中島美嘉, the more i feel that she's exactly the same as my sister Kathy.... must let her know about this...) an overall 80 marks movie~

Took the train back to Mong Kok for Dinner..... getting back to Hall afterwards.... it's really a cold day but i dun feel cold at all.....

Surprised how the news spread in the hall.... but i kinda enjoy that....

PS. LOTS of deadlines coming up.... gotta work hard~

向全世界說愛你 - 許志安

全世界也安靜 為了聽我宣佈
從前我最想找的已經遇到
全世界也感動 我真心我真意
同誠意送上祝福兩相偕老
(來陪你引證此生愛可不老)

有你便有最好 心因你自豪
同行共上路 有多驕傲
愛完全給你 亦同樣得到
動情原是極美的消耗

每一個羨慕 我都感覺到
向憂鬱苦惱寫句號
印於這路上 沒前後的腳步
心扣心 由長夜吻到清早

愛共你探討 火跟你製造
情全面傾倒 放膽表露
我從前雖也 像條害羞草
講I Love U 沒半點吞吐

Forced Retreat....

O well... life cant get better than waking up in the late afternoon.... all i see from the window when i wake is the dusking sun.... whole day wasted...

By the time i cooked my dinner and was about to get on some serious studies.... shit happens.... The fuse box of the floor just kinda exploded and left our whole floor in complete darkness (it's kind of unfair as only our floor is affected...).... the situation is really quite bad that i start to realize how the people in Iraq was living.... no electricity, no online service.... all i can do is to listen to radio and use the remaining power of my laptop to watch a movie (Spider Man 2, which is a good movie with some meaning..... sometimes for justice, you'll have to give up something that you desire... even your dreams..... that's awesome....).... have no other choice but to run with my frozen food (the fridge is out too....) back to home....

It's been quite a while since i last stayed at home.... and it's also the first time i came back after my room is renovated..... i finally start organizing my things into place.... saw so many photos that raise my memories.... and all the cards and letters my friend sent me.... just lovely... really missed the days we're together..... My dear friends, Friendship forever~

Tomorrow gonna be an interesting day.... expecting it to come.....

Medical Condition.

Okay.... i am thinking kind of slow as i have endured a really long day....

Friday morning.... it's a good ole friday morning and the bed is soft and warm.... just cant find places better than my dormitory room.... if it wasnt for the stupid orthodontics clinic lesson i will stay in bed as long as i could..... as its name suggest, 'ortho' clinic is awful.... have no idea what the tutor is doing as everyone judge the same case differently... we're kind of volunteer helping the tutor to see their case and make baseline record without learning a single thing.... and today is ever worse.... purely case discussion... which is staring at the slides and listening to the tutor murmuring alien language...... just found out i can perform some multi-tasking during class.... for example, dozing off and simultaneously nodding my head (it's kinda reflex anyways...).... have to struggle hard to stay awake.....

Lunch time.... busiest ever in my life in PP.... the ortho lesson has ran late till 1245 and i have to do all the paperwork for my patient, leave me with almost no time for lunch.... but still with plenty of time seeing people sleeping cozily on the sofa in the common room.... how lovely~

Afternoon.... Clinic under Dr. Chu.... finally have some inspiration regarding the popular said word 'Pok Chun' (meaning work hard....) if you try to rearrange the sequence of letter, you'll get "No PK Chu"..... isnt that obvious enough..... i can only perform to my best if that monster is not around...... received several critical hits regarding the medical history of my patient during the briefing time.... totally silenced..... sigh...

The clinical procedure are okay today..... have plenty of time left and enough to refer my patient to a specialist to consider for removal..... the only best thing i can do for my patient for now is to get them referred.... isnt that ironic?

Suddenly feel that my sister Kathy is really brilliant.... shown her with the radiograph and she can tell me what's wrong with the patient and the management.... it's as though she's seen the patient before..... i must work hard and one day perform as good as she do~~

Afterschool.... this is where the nightmare begin..... i first went to Sandy Bay to support the Hall's Hockey team.... it's been a really great performance by the team tonight.... we won Lady Ho Tung Hall by 1:0..... It's a real occassion i can feel such a strong hall spirit.....

Have to get back to campus immediately after the match to support the next chong's function.... seeing they have put together quite a successful function is a happy thing.... and more that they have gathered a group of people interested in the chong is even more satisifactory....

Went to dinner with Eddy and Josephine..... congrads to Eddy who have already secured his job offer... and all the best to Jo who's leaving for Toronto soon......

Later that night.... Time spent alone in MSN.... chatting with so many long without contact friends.... James... just surprised to heard from you.... Jeff... great dude.... Janice... support you in your exam.... Jason... U6 do look ugly anyways~

PS. With you, i'm never tired.... 抱抱天使的禮物....

Work and sleep...

Intentionally skipped the morning lesson as i desperately feel the urge to recharge myself.... was awake briefly at 8 but turn back to sleep again..... never know somebody was in my room during my sleep.... wake at noon and cook myself a lunch and went for school.... (late for the day... have to catch the cab....)

Originally i planned that with such sufficient sleep, my clinical performance will be much better.... indeed not... i do have much better control over my hand and moves... but then my judgement are impaired.... i act as though i know nothing about dentistry... pretty disastrous performance.... it's also the first time i received a below expectation grade from the tutor.... well.... not bad at all... at least it signified there's such a need for me to improve.... and as the tutor will give a 'below' to me..... someday i'll make him see that i do worth to get an 'above' as well....

Watched some dramas in the Dental Festival tonight.... if the drama is true... then i am sure i'll have a tough life.... (luckily that wont happen... i knew that....)

McDonald has never taste that good before....

I'm still in heavy debts of Homework.... gosh.... but i feel tired easily whenever i'm working on them.....

Death.

Have been associated with several 'death' issue lately....

Tuesday... morning lesson with a new (but not okay) tutor.... wasted one whole morning on some stupid topic....

Afternoon.... doing nothing productive.... played a few games before heading out with the ex-floormates for dinner in Wan Chai.... went for MJ with them afterwards.... but i was simply too tired to join any of their game that i'd rather choose to catch some sleep there..... have late dinner again before going back to Hall with Yu and Ewing... it's been really great chatting with Ewing as his speech is always enlightening... chat again when we have time~

Later that night... having a bad headache... thanks for the herbal medicine...

Wednesday.... falling asleep like dead... was late for school and my performance was really sub par.... basically have to sturggle hard to keep awake... sigh.... gotta catch up before next week....

Afternoon... after celebrating my dental group father's birthday in common room (not exactly like a celebration but more of a reunion... anyway....) went to Sai Wan with Lotion and Shiny to do the interview with the people in funeral business.... as we are doing a project for the broadening course we took together.... it's quite fascinating to see so many 'products' are available for the dead.... quite fun actually... but the write up part is disastrous.... gotta find some time to finish it...

Fell asleep like a dead man that afternoon.... sorry that i missed your call...

Meet with parents for a while at night.... just told them how i'm up to lately...

Received the 'letter of dead' (or maybe the 'Letter for the dead'??).... Exam time-table is out... gosh.... (projected death date: 5th Jan.....)

Works to do.... still got several write-ups and a project on my account.... plus to never ending reading that i have to complete... leave alone the journals..... when will i finish them all?

Conclusion: Doomed.....

戀人未滿

Everybody need some space. I'm going to appreciate that.

I have faith in us, just take it step by step.

Today would be an otherwise ordinary day..... waking up at noon and going back to school for the surgery clinic.... it's time for me to 'act' like a real dentist when i am doing the consultation for the patient.... dunno why i feel kind of relieved when i know i dun need to perform the surgery... am i just nervous or i am sub-consciously afraid of it? I just cant let this happen as i really wanted to get in this department..... hopefully when i'm actually doing to procedure i will feel better...

Staying in the library for the afternoon... it's about time for me to formulate a good study plan... (a 3-years-combined-into-1-year style).....

PS. 3 roses... meaning?
PS2. 怕 逃避你
PS3. 想 回到過去

Gossip Topic.

Today is a day of both good and bad....

Slept quite early last night... but then still missing the alarm clock and wake just 5 minutes before class time (failed to wake somebody...)..... if i have not skip the previous ortho lesson... i am quite sure i'll just keep on sleeping.... Attending the class is a bad idea.... i dun even have a patient for that lesson as i was absent on the clinical time.... the tutor simply read the facts from the book and we're just there to assist him treating patient... we learnt nothing out from that process at all.... I cant stop sending SMS during the class time... just too bored.... (i can now type in my mobile phone without looking at my key pad..... and i can also do it single-handedly under the table..... this might be useful sometimes)

Lunchtime... McDonald meal.... Salad and Big Mac.... the perfect match.... cant believe this was the first time somebody see me in uniform.... luckily i always look good in that not-so-good-looking uniform~

Afternoon... hellish clinical time... i start to feel pity for my patient.... who just received her second retreatment of endodontics in a row (just because the tutor feels like doing it....) Damn that bastard (i seldomly swear in this page... but this is just exceptional...) Precious clinical time wasted totally.....

As i always believed, this world is fair.... i was in such a rage but there's always somebody who can clam me down.... We had dinner near campus tonight.... ran into some of my friends and hallmates.... i can forsee my name will get pop up in some of their future conversation.... o well... i just dun wanna give a thought on that...... just let it be.....

Later the night... RC fest day 3.... i am just too bored today that i finally chose to skip this event but to join my friends in TST (the usual me, Kathy, Sally and Jonathan configuration)..... it's always fun to hang out with these crazy and gorgeous people.... we can tell secrets to each other as we knew that they're never going to anyone else.... just feel great chatting with them~

Some of the graduated floormates have come back tonight.... just feel like chatting with them as well..... I shall write soon~

PS. Lucky to know that SMS within the same network is free....
PS2. Sorry to the SPOC family... too bad i couldnt join the ReU tonight..... maybe next time~

Perfect Dinner.

Had experienced the most disastrous morning lesson in record history.... just 4 out of 8 student show up in a dental lab demostration (i start to query why the master-of-class-skipping, me, will be present on such a class?)... the class itself is not bad... quite interesting indeed.... but the sleeping hours are just too precious to compare with....

Afternoon... clinic... have the feeling that most of my year 2 time are wasted.... cause all the things that i didnt know is related to the things i learnt then... the Oral Diagnosis and about the Operative Dentistry.... shit... when can i catch up... Or will i ever catch up?

Have a stroll to the campus afterschool today.... seeing so many familiar faces.... make me think of the days of my early U life....

Had a perfect dinner tonight in Western market... the decoration of the bistro is quite good, but i dun really take note of it though.... the food are okay, but i just dun bother to taste them... all that matters.... just because UOY HTIW MA I.

PS. Further confirming some things... but i shouldnt be bothered anymore, right?
PS.2 I am in a frenzy mode to catch up with those i havent learnt in year 1 and 2.... visiting to the copier shop for notes and textbook is a must for my afterschool activity.....
PS.3 Dental Annual dinner is coming....

Skipping class again....

Total number of class in the last 2 days: 4

Number of class that i have attended: 1

The situation doesnt look too good..... I have already skipped the practical lesson on the Tuesday morning (it's a smart move though, as the lesson is really useless... but the more important point is that it count towards the attendance.... gosh)... just cant wake in time so i skipped it.... spent the morning in dental library for "some" studies.... meet sister in there as well... enjoyed a little chat....

Tuesday afternoon.... PBL lesson.... shortest lesson i ever had in my 3 years of studies.... which i think is quite good as i regard that lesson as totally useless anyways~

Later night... was quite tired already.... dun exactly recall what i have done that day.... just remember that i have reshelved all my books.... now they are in more reasonable order (also found out that i lacked a lot of essential/recommened textbook...... really need to buy them)

Wednesday.... first time skipping the RPD class.... i have woken up that morning but just felt that i need 3 more minutes of sleep... then i slept all the way till 3 in the afternoon.... skipping the broadening class in the afternoon as well.....

When i woke up Wendy came for an visit with her friend.... we chit-chated for some while before i head back towards my study... current reading "Tooth Extraction".... hope that i can finish this book as soon as possible....

Now it's time for the second day of RC festival.... gotta run again.... write later~

RC festival Day 1...

I can now be very sure that teh relationship between time spent on study and it's result is not related..... I've stayed in the Dental library for 2 hours in morning and have already done the total of what i'll done in one week.... sigh... too bad i cant stay longer.....

First time feeling like a Dentist for real..... i was the one actually doing the whole consultation process (though the case are screened for us already)..... cant feel better..... after a short afternoon stay in the LA clinic has already strengthened my mind on getting into this department..... the fact that they dun need lengthy patient record but a more down to earth approach suit me perfectly..... Really gotta Strive HARD!!!

RC festival started tonight.... we've got singing performances from each floor and a ball session..... the performances are quite great.... and the ball was fun too.... sometimes, you just cant work hard alone to get what you wanna get.... you'll need some luck as well.... 向左走向右走 is true even in real life..

Spent the night chatting with her... i kind of enjoy doing so....

PS. Just heard something related to somebody... i was at first shocked but see clues when i try to gather the pieces together..... Kinda simplify everything now... as what i said to Ceci a few days ago... O camp is a special setting.... Nevermind...

Save the Last Dance for Me - Michael Buble

You can dance-every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye,let him hold you tight

You can smile-every smile for the man
Who held your hand neath the pale moon light

But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me

Oh I know that the musics fine
Like sparklin' wine go and have your fun

Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone

But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me

Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
I love you oh so much

You can dance, go and carry on
Till the night is gone

And it's time to go
If he asks if you're all alone
Can he take you home,you must tell him no

Cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling,save the last dance for me

Cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling,save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me.

Wasted Day...

Dun want to write anything about my day..... as it's simple wasted.....

Thanks so much for the roasted hazelnut.... they are great.

Tough Day...

Argh... my feelings for today is a mixed one...

First talk about school.... got a really tough day today.... I have woken up at 7 something this morning and arrived school on time for the class at 9.... it's a really difficult thing to do when you have only slept for a few hours the night before... how would you react when somebody told you that the class has been cancelled because the tutor was not there?? Got nothing more to say...

Spent the time 'wisely' by lying on the cozy sofa of the common room and took a nap... it's so refreshing afterwards.... it's already the second time in 2 days that i have slept there... i cant make this a routine for me... gotta have a more controlled lifestyle and the lunchtime should be spent on studying!!!

Got my first case for extraction... 80 years old patient presented with cardiac arrhythmia, cardiomegaly and was on Aspirin.... tough case....

Clinic in the afternoon, maybe the nap really helped, today's the first time i ever felt that the clinical work is not too difficult..... but end up being scolded that my case could be done better..... o well.... i admit that there are still rooms for improvement.... and i'll work on it....

That pretty much conclude the day as the afternoon was spent on joint-floor gatherings and floor meetings stuff like that.... dun want to write much in here....

Something i wanna share here.... one of my floormate is quitting hall... this really affect me in some degree... just thinking that if it's really worth it to continue living here? I must find the reason why i'm staying here... or will i ever stay for all 5 years if my studies?

"Out of sight, out of mind?" Is this true? I dun really think so... Thanks to the technology we now got phones and SMS whatever... communication is never a problem.... but it's still a weird feeling not being able to see her.....

Friday, November 04, 2005

Kinda frustrated....

Dunno why i should feel troubled by some problem which is totally not related to me... I guess it's just too much has happened in my class... i feel concerned just because i do have the idea that we should be as close as a family... but not enemies trying to kill or hurt others.... but somehow.... these incidence maybe a general good thing for the whole class.... at least we can be our true self again, loving or hating each other straight from their hearts... no longer have to be fake just as to suit somebody else..... dunno what might happen tomorrow or next week... but what the heck... i just wanna stay neutral.... (it's a hard thing to do though)

Alright.... today's lesson.... morning is the dental lab "DEMO" (meaning no hands on work).... so whenever there's silence during the lesson it cant stop me from drifting to my dreamland.... (i slept so soundly that somebody need to pinch my thigh real hard to wake me....).... luckily the class end at 1100.... meaning that i can grab some time for sleep in the common room.... i simply collapsed to the sofa and almost missed the whole of the lunch hour.... feeling much better afterwards.....

BTW... lot of incidents happen in the same afternoon, which i heard some and knew some more later that night~

Afternoon..... first week having 2 clinical lesson..... our tutor is KC Yeung, who's quite nice to us..... (maybe we didnt do anything related to denture).... suddenly realize how little i know about dentistry when doing ODTP.... lots of essential question missed.... seems that i really gotta work on the skills..... Try to write up the folder after the clinic.... finally giving up as i'm just too tired and lacked the momentum to do so..... went out for dinner with Horace... find a new place where we can eat with full stomach and not spending more than 30 bucks each..... we two chatted with lots of mo liu stuff and headed for dessert (again?!).... it's been a great chat~

Back to Hall.... time went to the blackhole as usual.... but i'm really happy that somebody do care about me in the hall.... Thanks Wendy for encouragement and i shall be fine soon... (I'd better be sleeping soon as we have talked all the way till 5 in the morning.....)

Write soon.

PS. Thanks Horace for the song.

真情流露 - 張學友

仍難盡信我是這樣地無窮好運 能遇上精采的你
我缺點勝別人 你竟費盡心神 把我留起

如仍未清楚地說在目前和今後 無論那一天都愛你
我這刻要直言 到滄海或桑田 最深愛的 亦只是你

我與你永不可別離 愛你愛到死
因只得你 方可使我 流露自己

你眼裡那種種傳奇 醉我醉到死
一生使我動情 是你

Stressed out....

Bad feeling.... the more and more i worried about one thing.... i start to see that i cant actually do much to help.... this is especially true in my study and revision..... Just cant squeeze the time out for study..... that's really bad....

Today is quite a ordinary day... nearly missed the alarm call and arrive at school just in time.... Had been performing above my average performance in the RPD lesson.... part of the reason due to the revision i have done previously and the changes in mentality.... it's not a bad lesson afterall (i especially like the tutor of this class, Dr. Pong.... he's also that kind of efficiency-orientated people, which suits my style)

Lunch.... with Horace, Yvonne and Maggie.... we then went out to mong kok for some shopping.... i was supposed to have school in the afternoon but i have decided that i should skip it (i once thought i could spend the time on reading... but then...) I went to see my orthodontist in the afternoon and got back to hall..... dunno where my time was spent again.... just feeling tired the whole afternoon.... just managed to read a few pages before Wendy came and found me for a chat.... it's been relaxing chatting with her though..... together we sent so many mo liu ICQ msg and SMS to disturb my friends~~ it's really a wonderful night~

Later tonight.... floor practice on a performance we're going to give in the coming RC festival.... took me quite a long time.... i'm now left with very little time and worried about my patient tomorrow, whether i should skip sleeping and read more (but i still got full day on Thurs and Friday....) or just sleep and possibly jeopardize my patient.... tough call....

I guess i'd better sleep now, write later~

PS. Obvious = Determined...
Worried = Uncertainty...
PS2. Male brain and Female brain worked differently... how to bridge the difference?

Antihistamine needed.....

I've been sneezing non-stop for the last few hours.... must be the old problem with the allergic rhinitis, the temperaturing is changing so sharply that the symptoms come out all at once..... i can now feel shortness of breath and seizure of the intercostal muscle in between my ribs (because of sneezing).... not a good feeling.... worst still.... i have run out of my perscribed antihistamine... just hope that a warm shower can alleviate the symptoms a bit....

These 2 days are not spent too efficiently.... Monday... woke up to find out it's already 10:15.... that really scared the hell out of me and made me jump.... but then i realized i only got class in the afternoon that i fell back to sleep.... it's like that for a few days already.... sometimes i'll even wake in 5 am doing nothing..... must be the stress..... all i can say is that no matter for how long i have slept.... i still feel tired afterwards....

The first lesson in LA clinic... no wonder they're called the best department in the hospital... everything is totally different (the people, the equipment and even the system).... watched a demo case on real patient.... it's pretty interesting but i just cant help thinking if i am capable to deliever such standard of treatment to my future patients?? In serious doubts~

Dunno why the times seems to pass so quickly in Hall... got back and cooked a dinner.... then by the time i got back to my room again it's already mid-night..... chat with Jeff and my cousin for a while on the net and slept... no reading done....

Tuesday... (woke up at 5 and slept again.... sleep interrupted)... base on the poor experience of skipping PBL lessons... i struggled to get back to school..... this module the tutor is from the facutly of Medicine and he's actually quite cool.... no bull-shit style~ that's a character that suit me so well... gonna have some fun under his supervision~

By the time the lesson end it's only 1030am.... still have the time to have a McDonald breakfast.... linger in the shop for a while and got back at noon to meet with the personal tutor.... this time i have done no wrong but only that he wanted to meet with me and my groups.... so we were there... he's talking the same stuff about study again.... which i think for some points he is quite right... really gotta work harder if we want to be a high-achiever (i've some proud thinking... if i am among the top to come in the faculty... by the time when i graduate i must make sure i'm one of the best to get out as well....)

Went to meet with my orthodontist again for the replacement of the lost lower retainer... get to know one of my future tutor (Louisa Wong from Ortho).....

High-table dinner at night.... i'm actually quite tired of this routine.... enjoyed a really good sleep during the hightable talk.... and took plenty of good photos with my friends~~

This leave me here... i'm too sick to carry on writing.... must stop now... write later~

PS. Sometimes waiting in misery is the worst thing to experience.... I hate uncertainty....
