I Bruise Easily
Remember the last I let you out
You got hurt
You were bruised
And you never really healed?
Just like every now and then
The edges of water drown you in
And as you suffer the silent consequence
Who knew but that voice that says "i told you so"
You know all that can consume you
And i hope you know what you should do
And i have to keep you safe
Away from the weathering pain
Into that little grey closet
Until you are ready for it again..

And i hope you know what you should do

The Good Things That Happen
It's the weekend again!
*confetti*
Yes, you might have noticed by now that ever since surgery posting started, i've been only looking forward to the weekends, despite it always being oh-so-very-short-lived. It's not that i don't enjoy surgery, but it's more like i feel the need to relax and rewind and do absolutely nothing at all after the first 3 days of the week because monday tuesday and wednesday are hell-like every other week.
*rolls eyes*
anyways, this week has been pretty fun. thursday was really good!! =D firstly, i managed to follow Prof Ramesh into his paeds clinic at SOPD (surgical ourpatient department) and it was a mind-blowing experience altogether. Learnt alot, saw alot and i just absolutely love kids! There was this little boy who couldn't stop crying because he was just so scared to be examined and all the kicking and punching acts didn't make it any easier to convince him that all that we were gonna do was to just have a look. And even after we took a look at his little tummy, he just refused to be quiet. And me being such an angel and very magical (LOL), took out a packet of biscuits from my utterly heavy labcoat, and gave it to him. My god, the magical touch of a biscuit! =D He just went silent and smiled!!! =) THAT, that that that, just melted my heart...and i asked him if he likes biscuits and he said yes and smiled =) and i asked if he'd eat them and he nodded fervently =D
Sara and i just have this INSANE love for babies and kids. She's more of babies and i'm both. LOL. And today, we went to Obs and Gyn ward 1B with Fen and our eyes just went goo goo the minute we saw the little babies there =) We wanna be preggy too!!! LOL and i wana have babies like NOWWWW!!! =D Sperm donation please??? lolll
then on thursday, me, hw, kw, lams, maya, sara, wawa, and mich drove all the way to kl, to times square to buy KRISPY KREME!! i can assure you they're the best doughnuts you'd ever get and they're wayyyy better than JCo and Big Apple. IMHO, honey glazed is the best! =D
it was hw's crazy little idea to go down and since we didn't have much going on today, we decided we shall take a break from all the madness. and then we went to My Elephant in PJ for thai food. and it was really really good! totally worth every cent. and then we went to this cake shop which served this wonderful layered cakes! the vanilla crepes and strawberry crepes were my favourite! =D take me there again hw!!! just take me!! =D lol
loved thursday =)
today, my cousin sister sent me this:
That's zoe and her little sis =) This, completed my week ♥♥♥♥♥

I Did It My Way
If there is one thing in the world that i hate most, it would be to have someone (or more still, a friend) talking behind my back. well i guess that says a lot about that friend, ain't it?
i know i'm not much of a grown up myself. but i'm sure i ain't that childish either.
you see, that's the problem.
I know i come off as some silly, psychotic, innocent child to a lot of people. (ok, maybe innocent is a bit of an over statement LOL). people just think that i'm some spoiled, pampered, immature girl that they really don't take me seriously most of the time. well, kw called me a toy. "squashable" he says. nice.
*shakes head + rolls eyes*
but beneath that bubbly, cheerful, silly little facade, i know who i am, i know where i come from, i know what i want, and what's more, i know who i want to be.
i don't like to be pushed around. i don't like to be called names. who does anyway. i'm only human. so are we all. respect is a virtue. learn it. practice it.
anyways, i'm glad i got it off my chest. never felt more relieved. and for once, i stood up for myself. i took a chance. i made my statement. and i cannot have been more proud of myself.

He knows..
We had a lot at hand yesterday. went to the hospital at 630 am. 630 am! 630 friggin' am! and i was just talking to cho the night before (after soooooo long!) and i remembered i got really upset over the fact that they go to the hospital at 9am.
*growls*
Anyways, we were really tired the whole day through yesterday. we being me, lams, sara, hw, kw and maya. yes, the car pool gang =) the lack of sleep is really getting to us. no one, i repeat, NO ONE, should ever EVER try not sleeping. seriously. and one main reason why we were all so stressed out yesterday was because we had to cover the whole ward for cp today. and you know it's not always that easy to go up to a patient and start asking him questions while at the same time you try to be nice and add in a little bit of humour every now and then so as to not make you look that mechanical. and they're always sleeping so you obviously can't just wake them up! =( and we had to be on-call that night. ZZzzZ!
so we were all gloomy and glum. and i got this terrible news late in the evening that i swear i could just burn up a whole building. and i just kept swearing and swearing in the car! LOL
and then, a good news came. and it made all the difference in the world. i didn't need to worry about cp today. i needn't stay that long for on-call last night. i could rejoice. i could shriek and scream with joy. and that piece of cloud above our heads for the whole day just disappeared! and the four of us just couldn't stop smiling =) and it's just weird that at that lowest point of my day, things just seem to turn out the other way round. a 180 degrees of change. and i can't thank my lucky stars enough.
*sigh*
so much of drama in our lives.
whoever said doctors have no life?

It Never Ends
Ok..so the last i updated was a week after beginning my surgery posting. so any idiot could've guessed how busy the last week was. not that it's any more relaxing now but i think my blog needs a little bit of an update after all that has happened. not that anything much has happened though LOL. right, tell me i'm rambling...
Well, surgery is.......surgery. lol. it is still as busy. still as tiring. already starting to get bored (nothing seems to please me these days *sigh*). i have survived ward 3A which is a REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT. do ask me why. and now i'm in 3B =) into week 3 of surgery currently, with only 4 more to go, which means i'm a month away from end of posting exams.
*shrieks*
the weekend was a little more enjoyable. all thanks to ho wai =D he invited us to his birthday party at asian heritage row. and the place was great. the food was fabuloso! and the photos can do the talking *grins*
Me and the birthday boy =) love this shot cos it makes me look thin *wheee*
that's just....LOL. me. and my utterly sinful cake.
and everyone =D
case presentation tomorrow. with on-call. yawns! will i ever get enough of rest?! weekends seem to just end in a blink of an eye these days. it's weird. like i had no weekend at all. looking forward to going home already. sigh. in another 4 weeks.
*pouts*
