- happy (belated) birthday, joon heng! :)
- today is the 1st of november. shit.
- thanks (?) to everyone who INCESSANTLY congratulated teongrhen and i for being matched to the same partner medical school. no, really, we appreciate the gesture. confession #1: we had already anticipated (and looked forward to) going to different universities. but since our God was dead strong about sending us to the same place, to the same place we will go!
confession #2: my jump for joy upon opening the envelope was actually for proving that i have the gift of prophecy (or "a mere lucky guess" if you must insist. *rolls eyes*) after having recurrent thoughts about going to manchester way before the matching results were out. teongrhen, edwina, pei, joonheng, weilin & sarahyuen all bear witness to this. lol. but seriously, halfway in the shower... i heard MANCHESTER! when i woke up some mornings... i heard MANCHESTER! halfway studying... MANCHESTER! in lectures... MANCHESTER! and manchester wasn't even my first choice okay.
- i don't like man utd.
- it's funny how i used to despise pathology with all my heart. right now i don't know why i did.
- it's funny how Dr HA managed to instill an undying love for anatomy within me in semester 3. but thanks to the musculoskeletal & nervous systems that love is now lost in a faraway land.
- yesterday was our last CSU physical examination session in imu. one more history taking session, a mock osce, the real osce... and that is it!
- i found out that it is simply impossible to have fundoscopy and the babinski reflex test done on me because 1) my eyes are extremely sensitive to the light from the ophthalmoscope, 2) my eyes are too small anyway and 3) the babinski test IS SO FREAKING TICKLISH i just cannot allow the end of a tendon hammer, or any object for that matter, near the soles of my feet! (sorry teongrhen)
- i had bell's palsy when i was 9! come, ask me about facial nerve injury and its signs & symptoms!!!
- i can't go home until post-eos5! hate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but i guess since i'm going to spend 8 months at home doing absolutely nothing while i wait to go to clinical school makes it seem okay.
- anybody with interesting names for our batch convo mag (preferably something medically-related), please let michelle know asap.
- i am (still and forever) craving for bisou cupcakes.
