good morning preston

today is my first saturday in preston, having spent the last 5 weekends in manchester. i've got to say... i'm liking it so far. if i were in manchester today i'd be spending lots of money shopping and eating, and torturing my legs with all that walking. but i'm in preston today, and i woke up later than usual, fixed myself a nice and complete english breakfast, did my laundry, emptied my bowels, talked to friends... and it's only 11am! was supposed to head up to blackpool but there's a hari raya open house at 2pm. £30 for train ticket + entry into blackpool beach amusement park vs free lunch of malaysian food? wow, REALLY tough decision to make. :P

good riddance to the 3-week introductory course we had. next week onwards i can finally do what i came here to do: start using my brains and get my hands dirty! G.I. surgery! woohoo. we'll see how well Dr HA trained me in G.I. back in IMU. :P also liking the fact that there are 2 surgeons to 6 people in my group, on top of the SpR's and SHO's and FY1's and FY2's. so really there are more doctors than students.

i can never understand how assy some people can be to others they don't even know. but it's okay cos karma will come back and bite them in the ass. it's not like i believe in karma, but i know that one can never have too much pleasure in life. which is why i should not let anyone get to me. not worth the time and energy, really.

stupid people.

that aside, i'm quite enjoying it over here. i do miss home a lot, but i'm alright being here and there hasn't been a day when i woke up regretting anything. so i hope you're all doing equally well wherever you are!





cheers!
