All my mid-terms are over! :)

Yup, had my final mid-term paper today, 中药学. I felt a lot better after this paper compared to physio and anatomy. I think that my brain is starting to work at its peak again; it has never been quite the same after 诊断finals.

I really like our 中药 lecturer! Haha. He kinda feels like dad. His lectures never get too boring, 'cause he always shares his experience with the medicine he uses. He often says "真的没有那么神奇。还是不要中毒比较好。" HAHA. Next week he's gonna bring us to the herb garden! Hope we get to taste some interesting herbs :)

After school while waiting to meet prof tam, haining and i went to the TCM clinic to try and recognize some herbs that we just learnt. Some herbs smell really horrible - whether it's supposed to smell like that or 'cause it turned moldy i don't know. But the smell sure helps when memorizing them.

I feel so tired now. Can totally hear my brain protesting that it needs to rest for a while. I shall give it a good long rest tonight! After that, it's CHIONGGGGG all the way for exams!

现在心情很沉闷。
一个有大好前程的年轻人，现在只剩下冰冷。冰冷的身体，还有爱他的人的，冰冷的心。刚才上课的内容就是母亲在怀孕时，有可能发生的问题。包括心脏发育不完整，胎儿位置不正常，基因的病变...很多很多。母亲要将孩子带来这个世界上，要克服种种困难。好不容易生下了，养大了，死了。因为一群仗势欺人的混蛋而死了。
生命就是这么脆弱。好难过。

No movie :(

Photo taken in cinema during their "green screen of death". Changed the colour 'cause i felt it looked scary haha!

After getting defeated by the seemingly easy physiology paper (i should have studied harder), I decided to wake up early and go fight for seats with the O and A level people at jurong east library. So yixin had to wake up early too. But there were simply too many people chionging for good seats, so we headed straight to the 4th floor where people are generally noisy but at least we get to eat food. Spent the entire morning and afternoon mugging (with frequent breaks to play slice it! on ipod and surf the net). Nothing special...no not really, i had a rather bloody chicken leg for lunch, they didn't cook it enough.

At 530pm we headed out to cine to catch the owl movie (very long name!), only to find out that they won't be screening the movie due to technical difficulties. Felt very sian, because it was quite a long ride from jurong east. And we already bought our popcorn and drink and a cup of ramen noodles. Haii. So we had to queue up for the refund, and I made a bit of noise about how our food's going to waste so the manager said I could redeem the set the next visit.

We visited the arcade and played tekken. Some guy swiped his card while we were still playing and then yixin lost, so I had to fight that guy. My first time being challenged in the arcade! And he didn't even say hi so mei li mao. I lost, of course, but I did win a round haha. Then yixin and I went to take neoprints - something we haven't done in months. But the machine had to break down (-.-what's with our luck) and it took some time before we got the photos. I like the shiny patterns on it.

So hotttttttttttt

Finally it's my recess week! Well not much time to rest since i still have my tcm finals on thursday. Went to the woodlands library yesterday around evening time to mug a little, and for some reason the entire causeway point was less crowded than it usually would be. Maybe it's because the shops near the entrance are closed. Even when we went home at around 9pm there were so little people on the mrt, and we noticed a bit of (ominous!) fog at the mrt station. Brr.

Anyway I didn't mug for long because I got hungry very soon and we went to queue up for ichiban. Wanted to use our $20 voucher. I haven't had such good food in a long time! Partly due to my then rotting leg and that my parents and yixin were overseas AT THE SAME TIME. Haii. Then we wanted to catch a movie but there weren't any good timings, so we went to play arcade instead. And then i wanted to collect more photos for yixin's smiley face project, so I got him to stand at the mini-football machine. But someone wanted to play and yixin couldn't play, so he lost his temper with me! How dare he. Of course I wouldn't forgive him easily, so I made him take stupid photos of himself and a video of him pressing his ulcer and making a different noise each time. Screenshot will go into yixin's smiley album :)

Turned out when we reached home, my parents were somewhere in bedok. So we watched a few episodes of flashforward together. I'm finally going to finish that drama! Haha and it was so warm yesterday night I couldn't even bear sitting next to yixin. The moment my parents came back and he left, I went to cool myself in my mum's aircon room. Insane weather in october!

Too alone!

(Yixin trying to be cute. And another mix from my visit to the universal studios. Taken with a nice app called Diptic in my new ipod touch!)

Quick post before i start my long tedious mugging!

Mum and dad are going to penang tomorrow. Yixin is happily in thailand shopping now. I'm going to be more alone than i've ever been in my life for the next few days. To make it worse, I'm currently fighting a skin infection that shows no sign of healing soon. That effectively limits my diet to vegetables and fish. And pork, the only meat i can eat. Terrible time now for a carnivore like me :(

On a brighter note, I received my ipod touch 4! It's already awesome without jailbreaking, and I'm gonna love it more once it's jailbroken. Done with my scholarship interview too, no more stress! Now I just have to deal with the upcoming mid-terms and tcm finals. And my rotting leg. Haii.

Finally it's Saturday, finally some time to breathe *inhales deeply*. I'm starting to feel that there's too many things to do, but too little time for me to do everything well. Just had my tcm mid-terms on monday (which I did horribly), and now finals are coming on 21st october. And because tcm is taking up so much time to revise- 18 hours of lessons a week- i don't have much time for other modules! Plus dance is getting very demanding with the many performances coming up. And i got myself into ureca (undergraduate research thingy) which will last the whole year and possibly until end of year 3. Am I trying to do too many things at one time? Was thinking about quitting dance, but persuaded myself out of it. 船到桥头自然直. MAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF ANITA PEE!

My LG lollipop

I've been meaning to blog for quite some time! But didn't quite find the time to. First I wanna introduce my very pretty new phone : LG lollipop PINK!
It's a very basic phone, but the themes and wallpapers preloaded are so cute! Here are some photos taken with the phone:

(He loves his PSP. Haii.)



Yea on tuesday i think, i had no lessons and yixin had a day off too, so we went to jurong library to mug. Went early in the morning! but apparently it was the september holidays so there were a lot of students. We went to the cafe for lunch and decided to study there. Wasn't a very productive study day after all, but at least i tried! Haha.

School's only started 2 weeks ago, but I'm already mugging so hard! With up to 5 hours of tcm lectures a day, it's getting very difficult to keep up with the teacher's pace. And I have 3 other modules to worry about too. Haii.

Yesterday night i went back to hci maf and saw many people whom i haven't seen in a long time! The school's changed a lot too, it's a bit unsightly now with all the construction going on, but when the MRT station is built it'll be such a wonderful thing :) Bought a hci logo-shaped lantern (quite creative of them!) and a cookie-man accessory to put on my handphone. Some photos taken yesterday (of course taken with my pretty phone haha) :

(Haha mingte's weird spectacle frame)
