Wow.

8b8e5879-ac46-4e4f-8f01-53bb7e832b50

Few more hours it will be the end of November, and the start of December.

Feels like the year 2008 passed by just like that. and now we’re down to the last month of the year. Didnt feel like i achieved anything significant.

Oh well..

Block exam starts on 9th Dec instead of 5th. So basically there’s 9 days to study for 4 subjects, of which i’ve already wasted the 1 day (today), watching House, CSI, 我猜.. there’s 3 more hours left for the night but dont think there’s much to be achieved also. Perhaps can count watching CSI as studying for forensic medicine? haha then I’ll definitely put more effort into it..

Black Friday

It’s black friday today.

No, i’m not refering to the Friday after Thanksgiving in the United States, where it is the beginning of the traditional Christmas shopping season.

they coincide though.

Unintentionally.

and it’s due to efforts of Praba. Kudos to Praba. lol

Monday.

Today is monday. haha i guess you can guess from the title of this post that this will be a boring post. But i think i should post something la.

Why?

well firstly it’s the microbiology department’s decision to decide to announce that we do not have to submit the SDL and IL books. We don’t have to submit. So why am i making a fuss out of it? cos i very well spent many weekends on copying the stupid SDLs and ILs, that’s why. All the weekends that i could’ve spent watching movies. Or sleeping. Or at least some other more productive things. As mentioned by Yee Chin’s last minute theory post, i suppose doing that will just encourage students (like me) to keep things to an even more last minute? WTH.

Then there’s the class tests. Supposedly Patho class test is on tuesday, and Micro was on Wed. Then who knows all of a sudden patho come in n say “no, i’m not ready for the test on Tues, lets have it on Wed!” another WTH moment. Micro changed to Wed cos they heard Patho is going to be on Tue. AARGH. messed up, like totally. So now there is a high chance patho will be held on Thu, which is like Pharmac presentation day.

my question is,

WHY MUST EVERYTHING COME AT ONCE?

WHY CANNOT TAKE THINGS ONE STEP AT A TIME (ala jordin sparks)?

SIGH.

and..

there’s 8am class tomorrow. The killer announcement of the day. Bah, life sucks..

On the bright side, i managed to finish my journals approximately 45 minutes ago (at the time of typing). Lets see if they decide to announce that journals also no need to submit. Just wait n see.

College Day 2008

it was MMMC’s 11th College day last friday, 21st Nov, and the ceremony was held, as usual, at Hotel Valley View, Manipal..

this time although i didnt go up stage to receive prize or go with a date, still i went along with the guys to tailor one suit =)

 DSC08893

yeap. new suits. except kai’s, which is the jpa one. =P

the proceedings are pretty much like last year, no thing out of the ordinary, except this year there’s no live webcast.. cos last year according to our dean, there was less than 10 people actually logging on to watch the webcast, and the webcast wasnt clear enough..

for more photos i believe u can visit my facebook profile, there are round 70+ photos there.. if i upload them here i guess my picasa account will be overloaded already.. haha

anyway after the thing, i walked back alone cos everyone else had to send their gf back n all cos i wanted to walk in manipal at night =P

then i realized how pretty manipal was that night. cos the next day was KMC’s convocation. so lights were everywhere. it was nice..

M’sian Food Fest 2008 @ Manipal

Last night was the annual Malaysian Food Fest 2008 organized by MSA(malaysian students association) of Manipal. It was pretty awesome, with many stalls selling food.. got satay.. curry mee, chicken rice, ABC, even got Seychelles food! Of course, there were a lot of people there as well.. People mountain people sea, that’s what they say.. haha

DSC08845

kinda reminds me of a smaller scale Kuching fest. Which, subconsciously reminds me how much i miss laksa and kolomee.. Sigh. Must wait until 21st Feb 2009 only will get chance to taste it lo. =(

DSC08860

Kelvin, as MSA representative, also opened a stall, selling drinks. I suppose this stall is the one that earned the most? hehe

I didnt bothered to take a lot of photos, cos knowing my cam’s performance shooting at low light conditions, might as well save battery power right? and also i woke up just 20 minutes before going to the food fest so camwhoring isnt an option too. messy hair. =P

wiping half a blackboard needs 3 people!

haha actually few seconds before i managed to snap this photo the scene was even more comical. These 3 aunties were actually wiping the blackboard in sync with each other!

imagine it as your car windscreen wiper, only with 3 blades! lol

November 14, 2008

Guess where?

DSC00035

some people are just very afraid of developing skin cancer i guess. Wearing long sleeves is acceptable. Using umbrella is acceptable. But wearing long sleeves with umbrella INDOORS??? isnt that abit over? lol

PBL

hmm. PBL presentation is on thursday. i havent done anything on it yet. damn. it’s getting near the end of block one of Phase I Stage II of my MBBS course in Manipal Campus of Melaka Manipal Medical College.

It’s not pretty by the way things are going now. I’ve got tons of backlog of things to do, and that’s just homework only.. it includes

  1. All the journal reports..
  2. SDL (micro)
  3. IL (micro again)

these 3 alone is a huge burden already.

Oh and there will be tests next week (Pharmac SDL) and the week after next (Micro),

plus PBL presentations this thursday and the thursday after next.

As my effort to help fellow readers who have not presented their Micro PBL yet, here’s something that might be useful. =) help yourselves

安静了



Some songs are so nice that it is being subconsiously being played in your cerebral cortex over and over and over again.

This, to me, is one of them. and the MV is.. sad. hmm.

S.H.E - 安静了


作曲:周杰伦 作词:Selina


只剩下钢琴陪我站在这里
梦想中 属于我们的婚礼
却成了 单人结婚进行曲
在这场爱情角力的拔河里
爱我还是爱你
你选择了自己
Woo~
撒娇的 可爱的 女人的 爱哭的
照片里 曾经的 都是你喜欢的
如今我还在原地
你却走回你的记忆


你说我爱你太多
就快要把你淹没
你害怕幸福短暂一秒就崩落
分开是一种解脱
让你好好的想过
我想要的那片天空
你是不是能够给我


你说我给你太多
却不能给我什么
分不清激情
承诺永恒或迷惑
爱情是一道伤口
我们各自苦痛
沉默是我最后的药
是因为我太爱你


撒娇的 可爱的 女人的 爱哭的

Time flies. It really does. It’s already 5th week of first block. Which means that half of block 1 is almost over. And, it also means that Block exams is coming soon. ARGH!

dammit.

second year is really no joke. For those who said second year very relaxed one, i suggest you go and have your brain checked, or have someone assassinate the one that told you that second year is relaxed.

Sigh.

screwed up my pharmac SDL test today. nobody else to blame except for me. lalala~ there’s another test this sat at 8am, micro class test. Lets hope i dont screw it up anymore.

On the side note..

there’s going to be the first MMMC inter-batch games tomorrow. Basketball.

Batch 21 against Batch 23.

Venue : Sharada Basketball Court

Time : 7pm(girls); 8.30pm(guys)

For those who would want to take a break from cramming in Micro & Patho & Pharmac & Forensics.. do come. For support. haha.
