updates
There's simply too much to update since it's been so long since my last entry. Oh well, let me recall what i can here for updates. Here goes:
Friday
It's the last day of clinicals. My last day of attachment to TTSH too..Yes, it has been an interesting experience for the whole month. Learnt much, made new friends, know some of my friends better too. Found out more ugly facts about some people too. Anyway, highlight of the day was the gala dinner i went to help out at. I saw President SR Nathan in person and i really pretty much enjoyed that night. An eye-opening night, i should say. However, that night i had intense pain on both my arms. So intense it kept me awake till like 4am, so bad that i popped 2 painkillers which finally relieved me of the pain and allowed me fitful rest. I had plans to go check it out with the doctor though.
Sunday
Home affairs irated me that i only got to do my reports proper in the evening. I stayed till midnight with j at y's place. But the mood was there so, i made some progress. At the end of it, i walked home. Thanks to C for the phone company.
Monday
Rushed my remaining reports to be done. But home affairs further irated me i wasnt able to complete it entirely. Dang. Rushed down to school to submit what i have completed. Went with a friend to church - it's been awfully long since i've last heard hymnals so similar to secondary school days. Remember the morning prayers and the morning hymnals. It felt so similar and somewhat homecoming. So secondary school than college, so ij-ish. With a vexed mind, i found temporary peace from the visit. It felt good though. But once alone at home, all came flooding back. I think i skewed C's little girl image of me with what i shared. Sigh. Did i turn a friend a foe*(foe here refering to further than friend). Dad's not agreeing to my suggestions and yet not doing anything either. Sigh.
Tuesday
Got out of the house early with the intention of getting my last signature done. Instead of going to the hospital straight, i went to a coffee joint and stoned. Yes, serious stoning with a blank mind. Until quite late in the afternoon i went over, only to find thatt she's on week long break. Luckily i got someone senior to sign for me i guess. While i was franktically writing my final draft fit for submission, ZJ kor found me! Yes! it's been so long since i've met up with him. He was on clinicals since last week and i did not know. What a pity! But it was nice meeting him while he was on his rounds and passing the Delifrance. At least that was something nice that happened today that helped brighten a bit of my day(: I finally left the hospital at near 6pm and i met Myo at the station! another nice thing to happen today. Once cleared of my clinical homeworks upon submission at VJ's slot, i went to enrol for driving. Yes, everything is just so..packed. Took me like one hour plus before i finally made my way to meet BE cheryl at tanah merah to pass her her present. Yes, it's her birthday today. *sings her a bday song*
Next i made my way to T3 Changi Airport to send my ex Raffles Hospital colleage Jonathan. Lucky chap he is. He's got a place at manchester UK for Medicine. I am so envious. Sighs. My long term goal then. I have to take the longer route then.
I missed the last train for Boon Lay bound, so we alighted at Tanah Merah and hopped on bus 14. How lucky fo a direct bus. The others alighted at Nicoll Highway for cab back to their Halls and i stayed onboard all the way home. Tried to connect to the internet, and YES i got online. Amazing. I was online onboard the bus 14. Awesome.
I need to be more indifferent to my surrounding. I need to learn how to. Everything around me feel superficial..someone tell me what's NOT superficial now... i can't see any..kinda desolute feeling now :S
