change.

Another week flew past, and looking back on the past two weeks, i think i have done many things that leaves much more to be desired. I'm not just talking about school work per se though.


School has been intriguing! I really do honestly enjoy learning new things with each lecture. I am having fun in lectures! =D So let me dedicate a short something for each of my lecturer.


Physiology: my lecturer's one funny man! seriously! his sense of wit, sarcasm and humour is unparalleled, [yes, even by me! =D]! I haven't once sat through a lecture without wondering in amazement, what sort of person he exactly is. Lol, like for example, when he was teaching us about how multiple excitations from various neurones can arrive at a single post synaptic membrane. He links this to multi- tasking. "how amazing the human body don't you think? that we're able to do so many things at one time. Like how i find it exceptionally amazing that some students can be looking at me and nodding, while their fingers are typing away on their phones!". talk about catching us unprepared! =D lol... fantastic lecturer (yes, he's extremely clear in explanation!)


Physical pharmacy: my lecturer reminds me of agnes! =D she's SUPER CUTE! =D wahaha, she's from hong kong, and so she speaks in my ever-favourite hong kong accent! n lol, because she' teaching us about phases- solid liquid gas phase- whenever we get a bit too rowdy, she'll without fail, crack the same joke (ev lecture! =D) about howwe're all in gas phase and need to get back to liquid, if not solid phase. And lol, i think she's probably the only lecturer who'll..... (during our lab briefing) "you MUST remember to bring your lab coats! if not... i will LAUGH at you!" *cracks herself up into fits of laughter =D* how funny is that man! =D


ppda: er, the lecturer seems to be a pretty jolly and nice guy... i'm presuming la... cus i actually need to understand what he says before i can form any sort of impression... =D yes, he's a russian, so his accent is a bit tough for us to get used to...

it's super amusing during lecture, when i turn back from my front row seat, to see an entire lt of blur face, shock n open mouths. literally! (no kidding!). i LAUGHED out loud k! =D but he's realy patient i think... ppl can pulll him back for up to 20mins durng lecture... i think i wld've told the person to talk after class...


anatomy: havent had any proper proper lectures as of yet... but! so far so good! went to the anat hall last week! had a close up encounter with a cadeva! (unsure of spelling). it's woohooo amazing k! i can swear i know each n everyone of u inside out! yes! i know how ur guts look like! :D we also visited the anat museum which has MANY MANY preserved body parts and samples.... the most memorable being the development of the foetus... couldn't help thinking how many babies must have died before they had such a nice collection in good chronology... i swear you'll be amazed how tiny u were! at 12 weeks! but yet, how distinctly clear each finger of yours were! extremely intriguing... also got to see the human brain! picture this! you right cheek. then slowly mkae a 180 turn, and imagine nth there, so you can see right through to your brain! WOAH ok! plus all the skulls had their eyes opened! scary like anything!


so ya, u probably can tell, i do enjoy lessons! just that, i think uni is lacking in the FEEL good factor... yes, emphasis on FEELings... the sense of cohesiveness you used to have to is simply not there... though the people here are probably the most friendly and open group i've ever met... but it's not all about just having fun... i'm sure you know what i'm saying... you might be able to tell how much more tame i've become... cus i don't have my friends to indulge me! so yes, i miss YOU! --> with you being generic.


------------

on another note, how hard do you think it is to change your frame of mind? or worse, change a manner of being? like telling myself not to imagine and guess at underlying implications; like asking me not to be insecure; like asking me to have faith without anything substantial proof. how hard is it really? ultra hard i think. i've grown to depend on proof. call it ego, but i only believe what i see for myself. with exceptions to very few ppl who can convince me that they're views are right. i'm used to proving things for myself. no proof= no truth. Having to have faith simply by the belief of it is tough. super tough. but i'm trying. For a cause that i still deem as important to me. i'll be even better!



but trying to do it is tearing me apart. =S


i'm tired.


RAR!




ok that was bloody emo =D. ignore and onwards!


-------------------------


i hope everyone's doing well! stay healthy n don't fall sick! =)

I think it's time to start afresh, right up from ground zero. Funny to attempt a rebirth of character at a quarter of a century, I know. (okay, i confess i struggled between whether I'm a quarter of a decade or quarter of a century old). But well, some things have to be done! To quote my favouritest female singer-songwriter; my (sort-of) life inspiration; "to give yourself a new life, you have to give the other one away". I am famous for holding on too tightly to the past. Perhaps it's time to let good, let go. Seek forgiveness, and also forgive myself for old wrongdoings, whether or not I truly deserve it (who's to judge?). Life simply must not be spent wallowing in the past. (For we are not warthogs, hakuna matata) So-  Hello world, again.  (: sk p/s: #(parenthesesabuse)

“I've gained more from serving my patients than I have given to them; it's a privilege to be a healthcare professional. Indeed, it's in giving that we receive, and in losing ourselves that we find ourselves” - Dr Phillip Yap Well said Dr Yap. 4 years of bond is quickly drawing to an end. As I sit here rather aimlessly, waiting for time to pass in preparation for my night shift tomorrow, the late hours has allowed me some quiet time for reflections. When was the last time I did this?! (It's appalling!) Looking back on the past 4 years, I wondered which lessons and emotions stood out the most. Is it the resentment from the occasional unhappy episodes at office, or the 委屈 from the random angry patient? I suppose I really did have my fair share of those. But above everything else, I still relish the fulfillment that I get from knowing that I have made a difference to a patient today (teehee, look at that confidence XD). I said this same thing to a couple of close friends ...

A much needed, incoherent rant.

When things get sensationalised, i wonder, do we think before we react? I keep trying to be absolutely objective in making a decision. Then i realise, honestly, it's quite the impossible thing to do. You see, this thing called selective perception and selective attention is something that people fall to, almost everytime. And this is not an academic smoke piece. Considering things properly, people believe what they wish to believe, and once that thought catches on i guess pretty much anything can be twisted to suit your desired perception- whatever it is you want. Perhaps it's a natural cognitive process. It is just that much easier to have a stand and fit evidences to it, than to view evidences before making a stand. I tried to exercise objectivity, and think from both sides, their individual merits and demerits, before making a stand. i tried to compare to politics in other countries, look back deep into our own history and others', look at real trends before i make a dec...
