happenings

alot of things have happened recently and i guess i'm still trying to organise my ideas. i guess for every trial tt doesn't kill u, u just get stronger? haha. if the trial kills u then, does it matter at tt stage? oh well. :)

but for me, i guess it's now quite feng(1) ping(2) lang(4) jing(4) liao. :) which of course alot was sorted out over the wkend.

1 regret was tt i didn't go run SCM. hearing from sf and reading sw's blog... haiz. i think it was really exciting... but the problem was tt i came back from kuantan on sun itself. somemore only at night... so there was no way i could have made it... oh well. next year then. i actually signed up for it real early and didn't even realise tt the dates clashed... haha. so silly. so i wasted $30 then. and didn't get the goodie bag too... well, don't think i would wear the shirt anyway even if i had got my hands on it. boohoo.

did some catchup with kk, pig, simp. and of all the places we went seoul garden. haha. to think i still have 2 free adult vouchers with me, yet they paid before i arrived. haha. well, seoul garden is horrible actually. i didn't plan on using those vouchers anyway, so oh well. the place is just so dirty and everytime we go there always end up stuffing our faces with meat, meat, meat, meat, meat, prawns, meat, meat. well, at least i tried tang(3) hoon(4) this time and in fact it was quite good. :) haha. oh well, tt's still no saving grace for seoul garden. it's condemned in my list of places to go for class gathering and meals with friends.

well, today there was a special offer by starbucks. free coffee with optional charity donation for the salvation army. also just heard of it at the hpb lecture. haha, pontanged it 1/2-way to go shopping with k and then go drink coffee. haha it was my idea cause the hpb lecture was just too boring... even the escapade from hpb auditorium was super action!

a whole bunch of us made use of a break and decided to pontang after 3 SUPER boring lectures and were just waiting at the lift lobby to escape when surprise surprise, the lift doors opened and out popped the lecturer for the next lecture. HAHA. so embarassing. so most of us got chased back into the auditorium... i think ht even acted very pro in front of the lecturer as if she just came out for a pee. "oh ok, so shall we all go back now? *gesturing to us all as if nothing happened*". haha forget abt fann wong. i think bimbo should win the star awards.

then i think we did the smartest thing ever -- which was to wait till the lecturer entered the auditorium, then we all turned around and headed for the lift again! WAH LAU. i couldn't believe myself too... so anyway it was off to harborfront for coffee liao.

oh knew tt k had another trick up her sleeve when she suggested tt we eat ben and jerry's ice cream. haha, tempt me wif this type of thing... i confirm onz one lar! haha. so since it was still <5pm (when the coffee deal started), we bought a pint of cookie dough ice cream and sat in the food court stuffing our faces. haha. spoons were courtesy of macs. *terrible* i was like SO bloated. didn't feel like walking at all lar... my extremities were all cold and numb with the aweful taste of milk from the ice cream stung into my cerebral cortex.

we dragged ourselves to claim our free coffee though, and did a bit of window shopping too, before going down to claim coffee. haha, the silly woman refused to order a milk based drink because "if i taste any more milk i'll seriously puke. SERIOUSLY." haha. i was none the wiser and went for a green tea frapp (which was sadly milk based) whilst she settled for a mango frapp which i could have sworn tasted exactly like passionfruit.

haha yes we donated lar though i put in less than k. haha, <1/2 as much. oh well, but she put in alot.

well, i received a very pleasant sms from andy today. seems like he's having some COFM course from tml for a wk and he asked me if i would like to have lunch with him tml. wah tt's so nice of him. :) i think he's the nicest doctor the shuai-est one too. aiyar, basically all your attributes of an eligible bachelor... tall, rich, smart, sophisticated, WONDERFUL personality, pleasant disposition, sporty, handsome (not a cute-boy face, but handsome), successful, last heard he's still available but how can be?!?! now sure got gf liao lar. haha. he's one guy who's really impacted me and my opinions on medicine as a career. will enjoy the catchup tml.

something tt p said at hm really struck me deep. in fact it smarted the first time i heard it. i was hoping tt i'ld get the old hope back, someone who was happy-go-lucky and care-free; someone who was much closer to God than the hope now. i guess i was hoping to get those memories and happy times i had in the past back and to relive those moments with X. but looks like things are not going to be so. cause "u'll never get those moments back. ever. but u'll be stronger than before and more glorious."

isn't life exciting and full of hope? :)
