stupid dental

Wednesday, April 9, 2008

The clinic manager found fault with my oral hygiene once again.

"Girl, you need to brush properly you know... See the plague? And your gums are a little red, must brush properly! Did you floss your teeth? No? Cannot... Must floss ok, if not the plague will start to attack your gums. Please learn to floss. Come, brush your teeth first..."

Fourth time already... Ever since the first time I met her. The previous batch of nurses/assistants has never complained on my oral hygiene at all. Yeah I mean AT ALL. Argh. Dr. Lee has never told me to floss cos I always assume that the interdental brush would do the trick. Obviously the clinic manager doesn't agree with me. So I had to brush my teeth for the 4th time(and it's 4th, again)... How can my gums not turn red after brushing three times, and now she wants me to do it for the fourth time. RAHH! Before that another assistant allowed me to choose colours! Finally I had the chance to do so after having clear ones for the past few months. Guess what... I chose HOT PINK. Gosh. A few hours later I found my teeth looking a little weird, with pinkish liquid? The colour runs... Furthermore, the gums look as if they're bleeding cos the hot pink is too striking, almost similar to red.

Not too gross? Oops.

 

After which I spent four hours mugging at the Mac near the place. o.O Did you just see the word 'four'? I should go and buy 4D tomorrow. =X

Back to my Maths... Wow. It never gets done, somehow, somewhat...

series of events

Wednesday, April 2, 2008

This week seems to pass very quickly. It's already Wednesday! 2 upcoming tests and endless lectures and tutorials. At least I managed to clear some of the overdue and new tutorials and that is extremely pleasing and heartening. I ought to give myself a pat on my back. Looks like the self-discipline is kicking in, or is it because the desk is 10X neater in hall than at home. Lol.

Anyway it was April Fool's Day but luckily wasn't fooled today. Self-declared holiday again. Haha =X Was glad to stay in the room, washed some clothes, mopped the floor, cleared some tutorials, watched videos, slacked a bit. For most, it gets more relaxed after the first two days whereas for me, my peak periods are on Wed and Thur with those early morning lectures. Yeah I know it's not like I can slack throughout the week. It's not right to do so. There's this "MUST-ATTEND" lecture for me tomorrow, haha, yingy knows why. My favourite lecturer with a bow. It's getting late and I ought to turn it. Late nights and I'm screwed the next day. Though for many, they seem to sleep later as exams are nearing. I'm just the opposite, as usual.

On Sunday I got to meet up the JC gang. Very blessed and fortunate to organise this gathering. We've been wanting to do so but our schedules clash totally. Some in NUS/NTU/NYP, aiyo. Every one takes different courses too, that we hardly meet for lunch either. So we decided to meet up for sushi lunch at Kallang Leisure Park. Guess who we saw... Taiwanese boyband Energy! It's a total coincidence. No although I'd like to plan for such events to be held in conjunction with the gathering, but this time round it's a total coincidence. So exciting. We actually caught their sing&dance from where we were - Nihon Mura's restaurant, next to the glass panel. Awesome! I meant we ate a lot, talked quite a bit, watched free show. It was really good to see them after such a long while. Friends should really catch up with one another once in a while. Hoho, the next time should be around my birthday HA!

This is the stage: Kinda blur but what to do... I took it on the way up the escalator. Those kids aren't Energy, like duh. They're the audience who were attending the Chicky Club event. I need to get a camera before the overseas trip. I want I want!! MQ advised me to get a Canon/Panasonic which I agree. Perhaps Fuji isn't a smart choice. Maybe a Lumix... There's this model that costs $300 odd ((:

Alright, it's 1 a.m. SLEEP!

being an undergrad is demanding

Thursday, March 27, 2008

Finally a sigh of relief, or rather, a great sense of achievement. After numerous months, I managed to touch my Physics tutorial(like the 2nd most complete set out of 10). Even though fear may be a good tactic to force students to do their work, it is not necessarily the best method to do so. Right now I am doing it, but imagine a few months down the road... The answer will be an uncertainty. On the other hand, being patient to teach and eager to pass on what one knows to the students will be a better alternative. It certainly will make me feel good about studying than asking me to go and write something on the board. True lah, I think I'm quite a laid-back person. You kick, I move. You don't kick, see my mood. Ultimately, it's my loss if I screw up, and the professors still earn their pay. The problem really lies in me and my attitude and that needs to be changed. PK always teaches us, 'Your attitude determines your altitude'. Yes PK, I will bear that in mind... Especially when the examinations are just round the corner, in 19 days!

Sad... My subjects all quite cui. So 我下定决心，要好好study! The streaming talk kind of enlightened me. In order not to get into the 4th=last choice, I better STUDY!

I mean it. (x3)

While I pray for a course that I should get into... Mech(intended 1st choice)/Elec(intended 4th choice)?
