life

sucks. really bad. (i would click "strikethrough" here if i could. just to appear like a teenage emo,like i wanted to when i keyed in www.blogger.com instead of atomic absorption spectrometry. -but i can't. =/)

I'm in the midst of completing a lab report that is due tmr.. and i am in dire need of a brain break. so, here i am. School has just redefined the term draining. The trail of assignments, reports, projects, and tests run as long as the Nile river does flow. And my brain is stretched as thin as keira knightley can get. I shan't even begin to list out the schedule for the upcoming few weeks, it's oddly demoralising. Sometimes, we meet with a setback in life that shows us just how small we are. Sometimes, these setbacks are the things that opens your eyes to your own shortcomings, and brings you out of the small shrouded Nirvana of yours, -or mine for that matter. I am seriously lagging behind the standard of the class. i can hardly answer my assignment questions. and for once, I find myself smoking through most of my assignment question without barely understanding 2/3s of what i say. when it's all laid out on the table, i am a bad bad bad student, with an immense load to catch up on, but not enough time to actually do it. when it's all laid out on the table, my cap seems like it's going to bore it's way through the table top, the flooring, right down to the bottomless basement in the arena of caps. How now brown cow? What are you going to do?




i need a plan.

i need to devise a strategy to get me out of this rut that i bulldozed and lodged myself in.

i need motivation and inspiration.

and yes, these things are going to come from me. i am going to give birth to some, right now!


time will be made, assignments will be completed without a hitch, tests will be overcome, revision will get started and roaring, the finals are going to come and go like an enjoyable summer breeze. i am going to excel!

GANBATTE!

signing off,

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...
