off to zzz after this

Feels: emotion darting around me like an unsettled fish. uh huh.

I've been wanting to change my blog skin. Surfed for them in the net, found a few nice ones, but they just seem too... artificial. Wish i had the skills to design one. And another thing was, i reformatted my pc, with the hope of turning off the internet firewall. I know we could turn it off under the connection settings, but that doesn't work for my pc. Anyway i turned it off after reformating it, and it had my internet explorer cacat-ed instead. So, had no choice, but to reformat it yet again, this time with the firewall turned on. Haiz.

It's friday, has been 3 days since my finals ended. Before that we had 2 weeks of study break, which seemed too long and draggy, just because i never utilise the time wisely. Anyway, time was spent at home either studying, sleeping, gorging on food, day dreaming, and not to mention i spent 3 (or 4?) of the days in the mms (medical museum). Wouldn't say that the mms was entirely beneficial, but it did help a lil in the ospe questions.

The brain stem. One of the many mms pics. We're lucky aren't we that we took these pics with apparent impunity :p

Typical look of my room during the study break. There's marieb and lipincotts under my bed, lil notes on papers scattered around, and yes, groundnuts, and pringles! yum. My room's really messy now, think i've got to prune away with a few things.

Anyway, the last paper was ospe, which goes like this: there're 20 stations altogether and the time allocated for each is 5 minutes. Whenever 5 minutes is up, the buzzer goes off and we'll have to move on to the next station. And every station will have either a model, a picture, or a chart with its accompanying questions to be answered. Oh and about this weird-sounding buzzer, just imagine when you're focusing so hard trying to figure out the answers, and out of the blue, in the amplified silence, the buzzer goes off. Well, i practically jumped on my own seat few times. Which would be pretty embarassing if someone had caught an eye of the action. After the paper was done, our group was quarantined until the next group entered the exam hall. Then, it was a >2 hours wait for them, no, for min to finish. And chitra, york xiong and i basically sat in the quarantine room even after everybody else left, talking all sorts of crap, from guys watching porn to the whatnots of becoming a doctor. We blah-ed until we decided to leave, york xiong and i went up to the exam hall expecting min to come out soon. But it was just another long wait. It was only after almost 2 hours after the exam ended that we finally left for mid valley. Due to unavoidable interruptions that is. lol. We didn't do much in mid valley. Had late lunch there, watched scary movie 4, hung out a little in coffee bean and finally decided to head back to uni. ooh, and my cravings for ice-blended coffee is still here.

And an interesting note was, when we were at the ktm station min spotted this man begging for money on the pavement. So the question popped out, do we actually believe in giving to these people? Apparently it appears the same for all of our (yx's, min's and my) parents. Our fathers give, but our mums would scold our dads for giving. Lol. Personally, i think i'll give, depending on the situation too. Maybe some of these people driven to beg on the streets truly deserve our compassion and assistance. But i'm sure there are however able-bodied-malingerers who prefer begging to working and live off the milk of human kindness. Anyway, i think very little can be done cuz i don't think there's any legal provision to act agaisnt such rogues?

As for yesterday, jess and i hung out in mid valley. Well, the initial plan was to go to 1u, but that didn't turn out right. It appears that our combined sense of direction led us being lost in ampang, which was when we decided mid valley instead. Well, minus my sense of direction actually, cuz i've not a single clue of how to get there. Should really learn someday. We had nandos for lunch, and the rest of the time was spent walking around the mall until it was time for me to get home.

Oh yeah, hope this holiday wouldn't turn out to be boring. I know at one point it eventually will, just like any other holidays. What i have here are my korean dramas, lots of story books, and i'm currently downloading desperate housewives and grey's anatomy. And i can't wait for the upcoming plans of lepak-ing.
