man cant believe its already the 3rd week of school. i realised tt time really flies when one is busy. the last 2 weeks of school was pretty hectic. ever since i started schooling, i have never started mugging in the first 2 weeks of school. becoming a medical student has changed this. really quite stressful to see tt so many pple have already began mugging.. for me the final wake up call came during last friday's anat practical. i realised tt pple have already practically memorised EVERYTHING about upper limbs. gosh. felt so stupid in the class. hai..i always go back to hall room feeling really determined to mug but somehow there will always be some distraction/acitivities tt throw off all my plans. and i lack sleep.
today, went with damian and bow wow to hwa chong to visit teachers cos we end early. met huilin, ailin and gladys at hwa chong. din managed to see all our teachers, only saw sam lee, siew lao shi and mr wong. we had a lengthy talk with mr wong at the canteen. haha he nv change at all!! said he was INUNDATED (dunno whether its spelled like this my eng sucks) cos its the prelim period. haha~
with mr sam lee!
at our fav class bench!
after tt me and bow wow went off to glasshouse fish and co to meet junjia! haha bow wow and i shared seafood platter for 2. yumms! den we went to plaza sing for Gelares waffles! happy happy!!
walked thru smu to city hall after tt. haha smu is nothing like a school la. its like a shopping centre. haha~ almost missed my stop on the way back to hostel. super tired. i need 48 hours a day!!

felt so unreal as i cancelled off the 'place in medical school' on my wishlist. 2 weeks ago, when i had accepted the fact that i was going to be a law and econs student, i wasa actually contemplating deleting this item from my wishlist, since it was nv gonna come true, i should stop wishing for tt. somehow i decided to leave it dere, though i nv expected tt i will have the chance to strike tt off my list.
never give up hope, no matter how hopeless things might seem!first week of sch was rather boring.. fell asleep at all the lectures, partly cos they were boring, and partly cos i kept having late nights due to hall activities! at certain points in time i really regretted staying in hall...such a fun hall esp. cos i needa mug. but i really quite like the pple dere.. guess i will just have to learn to be more self-disciplined. =))
thurs, we had our first anatomy lesson. had to take oath facing the cadavers. tot it was quite cool, but my anat group din get a chance to touch the cadaver cos our prof was talking abt alfa romeos etc the whole session!
quite like uni life.. so much freedom. bow wow, me and damian went to meet junjia at shenton way's tcc on tues. haha so cool! can go out and eat good food during breaks! though i miss the feeling of having a class to stick with. kinda miss the 71 volleyball and chapteh days beside our class bench.

08/08, NUS flag day. it was the last day of my hall orientation.. we had to wake up at 4.30 am in the morning becos sheares wanted us to catch the morning rush hr crowd. super tired when i woke up tt morning. been sleeping for an average of 3 hrs for consecutive days.
my group and i went off to harbourfront mrt first. the morning rush hr crowd was quite nice and generous.. haha we filled our tins quickly. den we got chased away by the security guard and we moved on to chinatown. all the faculties and halls of NUS were doing flag day together on the same day.. think pple out on the streets tt day are so annoyed at us. haha!
things got tiring and boring after a while so me, joey, ling xiao and kenneth found our own entertainment..haha~~
the 4 of us decided to go as a grp in the end. walked from chinatown to the esplanade.
flagging at the esplanade!=))
haha.. we sat down to watch a band's performance dere and i could barely keep my eyes open.
den i got a phone call from NUS--asking me if i wanted to accept a place in medicine!! gosh i was super shocked den. i mean, it was like, 6 days from the start of sch?
immediately called my mum and dad and they encouraged me to go for it if i wanted to. within 5 min i called NUS back and accepted the offer. guess its really madness to be changing course so last min... but medicine has always been my first choice and i wasnt gonna let this chance slip away. =))
luckily i managed to sell all my law books to shirin! haha~ gosh i need to change my state of mind quickly. all this while i have been preparing myself to go into my law and econs course. although i was determined to do well dere i noe tt that isnt wat i really wan. sooo happy tt i finally have a chance to do sth i wan!!

30/7, went to sentosa with 04s71. been so long since we were dere! it was one of the most rot sentosa outings, cos it was raining. we ended spending most of our day at the koufu foodcourt--eating. haha
our fav hangout sunset bay has closed down and the volleyball stall had moved to tanjong beach. seemed weird playing dere..plus we were rottish and lethargic dere. hai.
nevertheless, it was quite relaxing to just chill at the beach..sch'c starting soon and everyone seems to be going diff places..wonder when will be our next 04s71 sentosa outing..
