2:20am Skateboarding similar concept to snowboarding as well as surfing, require the basic - plank board. Only difference is it has 4 wheels attached to 2 axels.
I'm still up and procrastinating away my 3 untouched books for my ent, opthalmology, a&e, dermatology postings exam this coming Friday. Funny how i am so good at pushing the stress away and also the very basic skill of opening and reading a book.
Well, in the midst of my crazy choice in med school study habits -
- i found this video that relates the title "Skate exam".
I used to skateboard rather often when i was younger, and am very thankful the following video never came true in my case. This is seriously GG.

Some are so crazy it tingles my spine! That little i need in the wee hours of the night to motivate my brain to study!
Study and be a doctor or become a skateboarder and be seen by a doctor. I think the first sounds better :)
Do pray for my exam yeah! I need to pass all of it and do well! Amen!
12:50am Have you heard your peers say "like a boss" when something epic happens? Or even for example you waltz into class late without caring two hoots of everyone in the lecturer - like a boss!
well, we had a session with our specialist who scheduled the case presentation (learning via explaining about a patient - medically) at 3pm. We sat in the clinic until 4:30pm when he showed up
.... LIKE A BOSS!
The best part about it is, he is the REAL BOSS of the department!
.... LIKE A REAL BOSS!
Omgosh... hahaha. i respect that cause after the years of slavery in the government, he "has the right" to pull that stunt and can't be scolded. Neither did he say sorry :P
12:38am Why make life so confusing? Medicine is probably the most difficult course because you always have to deal with people and problems..
Sometimes I think in life we act too rash. For example today, a colleague of mine was doing a presentation and mentioned about Beau's lines.
I looked at my friend and merely showed my fingers, and asked if the lines present was that. Following that she showed me what looks like a white-out stain on her nail, and i told her it was traumatic. Without query, the lecturer attending the presentation immediately said, "if you want to have a discussion get out. you don't want to listen then go out. if you are presenting, you wouldn't want people talking away. so... go out."
If you ask me, i thought that was very uncalled-for. I did not speak throughout the entire session and paid attention to the presentations, of which i must say were just people reading off every word from the projector, and i did not get a 2nd look.
I find that in today's modern day, people are becoming less rational. They only think of their ways, not taking input from others or explaining the best solution with good evidence/ reasoning. It's disappointing and definitely irritates the heavens out of me.
If you are one to read this post, please be more concientious of others and reason with logic and sense as well as on basis. Don't burst out at people unnecessarily when they are innocent.
1:20am I've just reached home from catching the latest movie :- New Year's Eve!
Day has been like the sea that hugs the shore. Subtle, yet sways.
As i sat in the movie with a bunch of my buddies, I reflect on my year. It's interesting how I could only recall bits and pieces of it. Did I even make a new year's resolution? Wait, I think it was to get through my major exams this year. haha.
The show really speaks about many people. Most of whom dwell in the past, some daren't take chances; some fight for the wrong things; and some who without realizing, made a huge difference in another's life.
I don't know who in the above you are, but I definitely can say : If your heart feels that tingle inside of you, beats faster when you just imagine something/one, and if it stops when you're just about to do something you never thought possible....
GO FOR IT!
Isn't life just amazing. Take a breather with deep inspiration and a slow exhale. You may just think of the next big thing this world, or your own big world has been waiting for.
The year is coming to an end, and i'm still trying to figure out what am i to do before that Cinderella midnight to 2012. If you're in the same shoes, go find it too! If you're done, share how to do it! If you're uncertain, at least make your life count in another person's!
11:12pm i can't believe i spent almost the entire evening, night - 4hours - attempting to swap groupings for my next semester.
Initially i had it all figured out as some of my closer buds planned on one group. Once i found someone to change with, they all moved to other groups.
I got bailed, ditched, left alone...
(emo music) ... {Violins fiddle in the back}
It's irritating, but well ... Such is life. (btw, the fella above in the pic needs Jesus) haha!
For some of you, the need for certain activities or etc to be planned in specific groupings are vital!
Reasons people usually give:-
----------------------------------------
1. Friends - my housemates are in that group/ my gf or bf
2. Transportation - i don't have a car/vehicle, hence i must move to that group
3. Time - to study, work or etc is inconvenient in that group
4. Just because somebody asked me
5. Some whacked out reason - my senior/mum told me it'd be better
Whatever the reason is, so long we can find willing people and it's convenient to us, we'll swap!
For myself, it's more of i am easily tired - probably cause i really do what needs to be done when in the hospital... As a result i will not have the time to study, and i'm afraid i burn out. In addition, i live half hour plus away as compared to my peers who at most take 15 minutes. It seems almost negligible, but when waking at 6am comes in, that 15 minutes is heaven.
Pray my "transaction" gets approved! Until the next post, SEXYYYY!
is that i don't have the time to do it. Previously a year back i could still swipe in a post minimum
every 1 - 2 days.
Now ... every 1week to 1month.
It's depressing because my loyal readers tend to disappear and it's as if my blog never existed. That said, i'm gonna do my best to bring it back to life!
It's interesting how creative people can be with music. It may be used to express feelings; as a subconscious stimulant; and even to pass time or have a social gathering.
Below are videos that are all over youtube and probably at the back of your minds. If you haven't seen it, you're in for a treat!
Firstly, this person must have had too much time on his or her hands and probably excessive amounts of loose change too! I have to admit though, this is pure genius :)
Halloween Light Show 2011 - Party Rock Anthem
Next time you have a party, who needs a clown or magic show. Let your house be the main event :P
Following is a video that you may not have realized but went viral! Reason is the epic sax guy and his musical inclination and thrusts! Overall, the song is actually quite nice!
Moldova - Eurovision Song Contest 2010 (Epic Sax guy)
Don't you just agree we need one of those spinning platforms and synchronized pelvic movements! I demand saxophonists idolize him! hahahaha!
Let music take control and sooth yourself in your hard day's work!
Happy Deepavali/ Diwaliand Till the next post, toodles!
Do pray for my examz this coming friday. Three papers, beginning at 8am-9am, 11am-12am and 2:30pm-3:30pm. Thanks and God Bless!
Usually I write an amazingly long intro to my posts. But let this video speak for itself :) It was the 2nd recording so i think it was pretty alright! hehe. Enjoy!!!

More to come soon enough :P
Have a great week ahead!
1:49am Hello my pretty.... let's have a lil' hickey! bleehhhhh (dracula voice). Lame i know, but it's so exciting. I'm in my general practice posting for this week and i feel great! It has been a year approximately since my internal medicine posting where i did my bulk of blood taking - venepuncture. And let me just say this proudly, i'm still quite the sucker:) One shot is all it takes!
11:53pm This has probably got to be the longest time my blog has been left empty without an update. But fear not my loyal followers, I did not enter a mishap, have not gone into depression, contemplated suicide and followed up with that.
I am very much alive and kicking!
Sorry for those of you whom with evil thoughts wish i did kick the bucket :P
Without uttering more words, I want to say
THANK YOU.
to God the almighty, and to you all who prayed for me with blood, sweat and tears.
As the title of my post suggests, I got through my major examz, entered the new semester, able to proceed to my final year in med school, and ultimately one step closer to becoming a Doctor!
Time passes fast unknowingly. But always remember, no matter what struggles one goes through, God is always with you and He'll never forsake you.
Long story to write with regards to my examz and how i succeeded - to be continued in the next post :)
11:24pm It's just another day away till my final 2 exams. Monday and Tuesday will be my long and short practical exams - OSCE for those who know it.
Prepared? nope, not even close. Then again, doctors always tell me you'll never be done with studying.
All I'm doing now is as much as i can, the rest i leave it in God's hands. He was good to me during my last 2 papers, so i'm hoping for the same in the coming ones! Hallelujah!
Do say a lil' prayer for me yeah.
Can't afford to resit - 8 months, and $40,000...
No No NO!
i'll know my results by the coming wednesday. Pass, and you'll see much more happening here and brand new Youtube stuffs! - can't wait!
and as said in the above title and picture, here's a special version!
7:11pm As said in the pic above, "Nobody knows what you do, but Heaven knows your intent". I like this very much. Got it off a chinese drama and it is so true :)
I'm having my finals for this semester/ this year the coming Monday, Wednesday and the following week. If i told you about my studies, you wouldn't believe it. But let's keep it simple, I'm nowhere near the finish line for studying. haha.
2:42am Maybe you require a dictionary when reading the title of this post. But essentially it means lack of interest. In what you may ask? Basically, in studies. Examz are next week and 2 weeks later are my finals, and i just am not interested to study. I am uncertain why. I know i must study, i want to study, but i just turn away from it. I am more interested in playing games or drums or etc.
It annoys me because I always end up in a situation where I am fighting to finish studying. I hate it very much. I plan to finish so much by this and that - having alot of extra time to go through another round or so. But, as a wise person once said - Plans are meant to be broken.
Little may i ask of your favor that you just pray I do extremely well in my examz. I'm on a thin thread and I need to score in all of it to keep me in this game.
I have faith that all in all, God'll pull me through. But no harm getting more ppl telling Him to assist me is there? :P
Have a lovely blessed day you who reads this sappy and oh so not updated blog.
While many people nowadays, men and women invest hundreds and thousands of dollars in their lifetime in skin care products and other cosmetic works, the talk about
For many, it has become a disease -obesity. Others, it's the social stigma that kills. Being called
"fat, fats, fatty, obese, you ate your sister's dinner,
let's not call her or we'll have no food left,
if we go to the cinema with her no one else can watch the movie" and etc.
Does that sound familiar? Many may joke around about people's weight, but really it could be taken the wrong way! - Sad, Angry, Depressed, Suicidal?! are amongst the many feelings a so-called fatty may feel.
A little medical knowledge for those around:
Fat is somewhat like a balloon. Because of this nature, it is easy for fat to build up! Hence, for many people who noticed fat people put on weight, it's amazingly drastic!
A sad fact for those out there is, once fat is made, it'll never disappear. Yes, you heard it right! It won't go away. This balloon like encasing can shrink but not be rid of!
That is the reason why a person who once had lost many pounds can put it back on so easily when they stop their exercise and health eating habits.
Now about the title in itself:
Cellulite! what exactly is this hated thing usually mentioned by girls? In essence, it's increased fat deposition at certain areas such as the thighs and gluteus (butt) whereby it causes skin dimpling because of the stretching of the skin on the fat.
Here is the answer to your troubles!
The Whys and Hows of Cellulite - Health Guru
Cellulite as a whole is not a huge issue to me, but the idea of fat is! This is because it has been proven to become a risk factor towards many health problems. Amongst them, the commonly heard of is a Myocardial Infarction : aka Heart Attack!
If you're slightly on the heavy side, i understand it's difficult and very strenuous to lose weight. But look at it long term, and do not let this get in the way of you living your life to the fullest and worry about whether you're gonna be able to wake up one day alive or dead from some preventable illness.
4:37am Have ya been called crazy before? If you haven't, you must be really sane! haha. Lame jokes aside, I had finished my orthopedic posting just a week back. Now in my final posting of my semester before the major exam for this year.
PSYCHIATRY!
Yes, dealing with the mentally unstable. I never knew that the things you see in the movie like a beautiful mind, shutter island, and etc are for real! IN MALAYSIA!
It's a very sad affair i feel. People who are meant to lead happy lives, due to certain reasons mainly I believe linked to stress and poor coping skills, end up being stigmatised for the rest of their lives.
It's going to be my 2nd week now. I'm sure there'll be more to come! Bid me luck and pray for my success in devouring 7 postings worth of knowledge over the next few weeks. Essentially 7 times 300 pages for each book.
