Uni Life

Hello!! It's been a while since my last post. Alright, just to get everyone up to speed, uni has started once again and it is only 1,2,3,4,5,6 WEEKS TO the Midyear Exam!! Gosh.....time flies.
The holidays provided much needed 'personal' time and now I am somewhat more refreshed haha. Just had an evidenced based dentistry test on friday--hopefully i'll pass that . Had an awful session at lab but i know now there is no where to go but up the improvement curve :P

Packing amalgam was a great work out! Gave me just as much weight training as would a gym workout with weights. Carving amalgam on the other hand took more patience. Drilling the cavity : even more patience.

Currently catching up on subjects like salivary glands, periodontium, effects of local anaesthetic and also sleep.

Oh, there have been new additions to the tea collection in college : lovely peppermint tea and green tea +jasmine tea heheheh.....Great news for me!

The yoga classes i went for, umm.......hehe.....only managed to go 4 out of 10 times....it was way too dehydrating and taxing....left me with no energy for anything else. Still in search of a suitable time for a flu jab ...SHEESH--everyone around me is either recovering from a cold or at the brink of getting one! Heralding the start of winter....with drizzles and strong winds.

Till next time
Cheers

Easter Holidays!!!

YES!!!! FINALLY........some break time :)

The embryology test went well.....had a bit of fun last night at Red Square ( a club) however somehow, I still think clubbing is not for me. I actually have more fun listening to music in my room ,enjoying a goood book or chilling with friends. I Guess the club scene is way too 'happening' for me ....especially the smoke and the alcohol.......But it was a good experience.

Woke up this morning with dark circles under my eyes.....humph....must be the fun and exams taking its toll...Gonna have to make up for the lack of sleep during the holidays :). Had a great Malaysian lunch at relative's place --Hokkien Mee and Gado Gado ....yummm......(that's why i can only start eating 'healthily' from monday onwards )

Here is what I have planned for the two week break :
1. Sleep before 11.00 pm( Sunday onwards)
2. Go for yoga classes ( starting on tuesday) at least 6 days of the 10 day pass
3. Go to the gym ( monday onwards) at least 2 times a week
4. Eat well : ration my meals and eat healthily ( Monday onwards)
5. Catch up with friends through email and msn and through this blog
6. Tidy up my room and file all relevant documents
7. Revise biology
8. Copy and understand most of Ten Cate Oral histology and embryology
9.Study for Evidenced Based Dentistry test and finish the assignment
10. Read some good novels
11. Learn to sing and play the piano at the same time
12. Buy the clamp ( w8A) I lost.
13. Go shopping
14. Check out the research opportunities in the Dental Hospital
15. Get a flu jab ( tues or wed)
