Wildlife

June 22, 2008

I finally have to admit: It is great to be home, my family! my bed! my room!

Friday

Woke up about 12 pm.

Made a few phone calls to : Mayshi ( May shi called me first lol), Jun Ai and tried calling Wai Kwan! ( who was still in the shower)

Went out for a prefect gathering at the curve, met up with ES, KC, JL, SM, LP etc :P it was quite fun, and the caesar salad rocked ( was still full due to the plane food and lunch..)

Elephant Trip 001 Snowie ( The Cat) Fat Fat…

Home front

1. My Cat eats my dog food, my dog eats my cat food, the birds eat the dog food ( there is something really wrong with the food chain in my house! (grins)

2. My house has a new dishwasher ( fancy)

3. Will be baking a carrot cake for my mum’s birthday ( hope it goes well)

4. I drove the day after i got home which was back from dinner last night (saturday), Dream and Drive ( when you have no car)

5. Prices, Inflation!! Chicken rice RM 8 ( Bro said) :(. One day, RM 7.00 = 1 pound = UK = Msia

6. I got a new hp number

Elephant Trip 006 Elephant Trip 004

Unknowingly, my dad said that i will be going for a trip to see an elephant sanctuary on saturday ( the thing which came to my mind at first was: smelly, big dung (from elephants).. but it was not bad ( but due to me jet lagging i only had an hour sleep.. tossing and turning in bed) and i am down with the good ol flu. ( sorethroat) and to think of it my mum asked me have i been sick since i have been in glasgow, how many times? ( 2 times i think) but now in Msia is 3 :) haha

I learnt that there are new pokemon shows out ( maybe i’m outdated) but it was on during the whole bus journey to Kuala Gandah ( 2 hours bus ride - POKEMON Grr), instead of pikachu i choose u, i would say Pikachu, I don’t like you! :S

But still, on my pokemon (lovable) side, i still find togepi super cute :) To Gwe.. Pee! :)

Back to the elephants: Elephants display emotions, and they really do!

Elephant Trip 022 Elephant Trip 020 Elephant Trip 017

I wonder what the elephants are saying:

From Left:

1. Aw, there there, i think you should not have reached out too far beyond the eletrical fence my dear (Elephant on the left)

2. Maybe i should not have ( Right elephant holds left elephant trunk)

3. Give me back my banana you fatso! ( Right elephant)

Elephant Trip 033 Elephant Trip 028 Elephant Trip 025

5. Let see who is bigger, let me look at your bum! ( Left Elephant)

6. You two silly fighting, there are plenty of food here ( far right elephant)

7. *whispers* there is a papaya fruit stain on your trunk if you havent notice (Left elephant)

Elephant Trip 031 Elephant Trip 029 Elephant Trip 030

8. ” I like big butts and i cannot lie” ..

9. Dont push me..

10. Check her out >.<

Facts about elephants:

They have the largest brain, likes bananas, there are 2 types ( african and malaysian ), they eat alot!

Elephant Trip 014 Me : Half awake, sleepy, mind full of pokemon ( i have been brainwashed!), dreaming of pillow, sweaty, smell of elephant poop!

Went for Mass :)

Dinner: went for dinner at Jaya 33

Today ( Sunday)

Slept for a lovely long time till 11am, had lunch at dragon- I ( dad, bro) and had the claypot rice ( my favourite), and then went for Sybil Kathagasu ( a play by actors studio at BSC ( interesting)

Its getting closer, to close for comfort for Exams & PEE

May 31, 2008

had to blog, so much stuff inside me if i kept in stefanie will go pop.

 

Time waits for no man ( WOMAN)

I have broken down my remaining hours, till by arrival in Bute Hall/Randolf Hall into hours.. in a time table spread on one sheet..

Image078My library work area..

Image077 This is crazy. but progressive.. Late hours of the night and we hours of the morning

 

Nervous Breakdown … Almost!

Its so soon, exams are on tuesday, almost had a nervous breakdown but thanks to my consciousness, i took out my Bible, and found a lovely prayer by St Ignatius of Loyola

O Lord Give me the grace so that all my intentions, all my actions and all my operations may be directed solely to the praise and service of your Divine Majesty…

I had to read it a few times to calm my self down.

Bad Luck. Fool

After the gym, while looking at flash cards while exercising on the cross ramp machine

I did do a silly thing today = fool, my washing clothes detergent bottle was not closed properly, ( which i did not know off), and on my way down to the laundry room and in front of the washing machine, looked and saw. !@$#%^ my whole laundry back was soaked with the liquid. Furiously stupid mediocre act!! So i had to use 3 whole machines for one pile of clothes which is oversoaped ( im letting out all my rage due to me on my blog!)

On my computer, realised the audio was not working, sound card problem ! @#%$^&* ( actually the symbols dont mean any bad words maybe its EEEEEEEEAAAA or something like tat :) ) This symptom ( medically speaking which my dear friend CK had also caused his com to have a blue screen. talk about computer transmitter disease that leads to cyanosis of the LCD screen? GOSH.

Reformating after exam, Fingers cross of no cyanosis of LCD screen before tuesday!

Praying Hard.

P.E.E.

What are you going to do after exams?” AL

I had not thought about it yet, dead seriously, well i will think maybe later but not just yet. there is a list at the back of my mind somewhere.. :) going to help AL with her OSCE ( be her patient) ahha :) and maybe pack as i wont be staying at WXH next term.

Summer, somehow im dreading it and looking forward to it ( Post Exam Emotions) which is PEE for short.

And at the bus stop on friday waiting for the bus i saw :

Is this a sign of Post Traumatic Stress Due to Exams / or PEE

Image076

Gosh, i wish my exams were over now, so much free time lah.. this person >.<, on the grass somemore, sleeping wor..

Girl Interrupted No More

Studying block 4.4 Contraception, Just realised the same scenario had exactly the same name as my neighbour ( hint: where weird noises happen in the middle of the night…) amazingly what a coincidence, luckily she has moveout or gone home. so no more interruptions.

Blogs

I have read so many new posts on blogs, esp what women want, and have some things to reply, so await my late / belated reply soon. KC! and Ern Sheong

And Nuffnang wild competition :)

Cam-posing, Boredom

Image082

Practically Bored… Panda Eyed!! Fringe which i cut a few weeks ago has grown so fast, and just realised i could smile :) :) :) :)

Baby Pool

And yes, some people have a good splashing time not in the swimming pool, but a inflatable pool outside B block, and yes we do have swimsuit fashion parade at dinner that day.

And one of the plot was to Pop the pool :) haha

 

And the Question is?

Should I skip PBL on Monday? ( Yes, classes run right up to exam time, med life - no life - but life long learning which is till exams)

 

And i miss my mum and family at home, where mum will cook my favourite food during exams and have a huuug once in a while when she comes into my room when i s tudy..

SPM was tedious, A levels was OMG, but i made it, First Year Med ( Do you best and God Will do the rest = My Motivation)

And Good luck to everyone !!

And Back to revision..

Guess what pic is this?! ( It is the skylight outside the vocational studies rooms which is soooo pretty. ( Taken by me, when i was jaga-ing the corridors of yellow circuit 3 during the year 3 OSCE)

Well, i was a patient for the upper limbs movements, it was fun.. .till after 10 students lol. There was free food! sandwiches and alot of sandwiches provided by the atrium cafe and cookies, tea and coffee during the break. HUNGRY!

Managed to read some notes during the osce stations which was about 5 mins each, and that irritating whistle!

* Hope i make it and finish med school!*

One week more till im 1/5 of a doctor!

And yea, there are some ppl in WXH who have finished their exams and are making a crazy racket and not to mention the weird sounds stefanie still hear as night ! CONSIDERATION needed!

May 7, 2008

Oh well, summer is here, and its realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyy sunny, and not to mention many people here are naked. ( i mean less clothes la ) shorts and flip flops ( the thing that stefanie did not bring to GXA). Groans.

Away with the heavy winter coats! and boots!

Library is good, as there is no adobe flash player installed so stefanie cant play her scrabble game!

SOBS!

On the last note:

I miss NASI LEMAK and miss studying times with by friends back home, Bernice & Jacqueline ( Alevels) &  Michelle (SPM)

MISS YOU! ALL !

If you are bored and have nothing to do

April 14, 2008

Dedicated to Ms AL

THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
Blink wildly and then close your eyes really tight for an interesting light show
(Amusement Potential: 1-5 minutes)
See a variety of blobs, stars and flashes. Try to make out shapes and see if your subconscious is trying to send you a message (perhaps that funny shape is saying, ’send all your money to urban75.com’?)
See how long you can hold a note
(Amusement Potential: 4-20 minutes)
Not that much fun, but it sure passes the time. Play with a friend, or try to beat your own personal best. Inhale deeply and then try and make a noise for as long as you can. Earn extra points for making your partner laugh or ending on an amusing note.
Try to not think about penguins
(Amusement Potential: 1-5 minutes)
This is especially hard, because by trying too much, you remember what you were trying to avoid thinking of. If you try too little, you end up thinking about penguins anyway.
Use your secret mind power
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Pick a passing by and try to use your mind power to command them do something, like drop their bag or knock into someone. The law of averages dictates that sooner or later one of your mind commands will come true, so you can convince yourself that you really have super human powers and waste even more time trying them out.
Pretend you’re a robot
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
Walk down the street with mechanical movements, adding ‘zzzzzt’ sounds with each motion. Pretending to have a motor broken in, say, your left hand can add at least 30 seconds more entertainment.
Scratch yourself
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
Go ahead, scratch yourself now. Even if nothing itches, go ahead. Doesn’t that feel pretty good?
Rate passers by
(Amusement Potential: 10-15 minutes)
Secretly award passers by marks out of ten as you go along, offering (unsaid) expert criticism over their clothing, hairstyle and footwear choices.
Repeat the same word over and over until it loses its meaning
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
Pick a random word out of a magazine and say it aloud to yourself until it becomes a meaningless set of noises.
Pinch yourself
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
What is pain? Why is it unpleasant? There’s nothing physical about it - it’s all in your mind. Plus, after pinching yourself for awhile, boredom will seem nice next to being in pain.
Try to swallow your tongue
(Amusement Potential: 1-2 minutes)
There’s not much to say about this one. It is possible, but really stupid.
Pretend to be a car
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Make appropriate revving noises in your head as you walk along and add a racing commentary as you pass strangers in the street. Use blinking eyes as indicators for extra authenticity.
Make Star Trek door noises
(Amusement Potential: 1-2 minutes)
Stand by an electric door to a bank or something and make that silly “Scccccccchwop” sound heard whenever people popped on to the bridge to hang with Captain Kirk.
Look at something for awhile, shut eyes, study after image
(Amusement Potential: 2-5 minutes)
Another great time waster. It takes about 30 seconds of staring to create an after image, and the image is then viewable for about the same length of time. Fun to combine this one with pushing on your eyes.
Get yourself as nauseated as possible
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Best achieved by looking straight up and spinning around. Try to be so dizzy you can’t even stand up. This is also entertaining due to the “makes boredom seem a lot better” effect (see “Hurt Yourself”).
Invent a weird twitch
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Adopt a bizarre twitch (e.g. flicking your head irregularly, twitching with eye or busting out sporadic cough noises) and try it out when you go shopping.
Make a low buzzing noise
(Amusement Potential: 15-30 minutes)
Hours of fun in libraries! Keeping a totally straight face and looking nonchalant, make a low pitch humming/buzzing noise and see who reacts.

F.r.i.e.n.d.s

April 12, 2008

Stefanie has finished watching the entire Seasons of Friends  From Season 1 -10 and i cant believe it ended at season 10!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY! now its back to some serious mugging girl.

Flashback:

I was watching an episode of friends and when i got the message, Your friend Drew passed away, and i did not find the episode i was watching funny anymore, everything just went dead

Monday ( Start of term 3)

On the bus, the first week of holidays passed so slowly and sped up like a speeding bullet as it went just like that. My goodness, and still so much revision to do. Block 5 is seriously going to be a crazy heavy load since its biochemistry, Thank goodness i brought along my A level notes Ms FYT you ROCK! :) Wolfson Hall was getting more swamped with people that means less laundry flexibility, dryers, more noise etc etc. New PBL group which is now from 12 -2pm and the SL was so full!! No computers available and no carrels available too!

Tuesday

OMG its tuesday, and yep, back in full swing, and i need to get a grip on this block well, osmolality, glucose pathways and more pathways and metabolism and all that jazz. Had communication skills, one patient (Which was an actress) came in as a angry angry lady who was irritated and in a really bad mood as her daughter was given contraceptives by the doctor, so.. yea.. FREAKY, and luckily my VS  group mate whio was doing that role was fantastic! as he managed to calm her down, i got one which was luckily sane!! Man i would have cringed if i got a scary patient but but but but but but but but but im going to and will be a GOOD doctor!

Wednesday

G Proteins and signal transduction, a day in the SL. Since part of my name has initials S and L :) will be studying there most of the time.

Thursday

I found a really pretty and colourful old book in the library, illustrated physiology!!!! and its so nice to read! and smells a bit old too. im just fascinated or just a geek.

Btw, wat is the definition of geek? is it someone who is good at tech stuff? i mean well its not!!! totally not!

11.00 pm

I’m Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Oh my God that Britney’s Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Extra! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. she’s too big now she’s too thin
(You want a piece of me)

well this seemed like an interesting song to listen to at the gym but definitely NOT AT NIGHT when you are having a early start the next day, and you can here the bass banging through the walls and echoing. i was up to my neck, and asked CK to help me tell the person off, through the speakers and i hold the phone after i dialed the extension number of the room but the line was engaged ! goodness sakes.

Friday

Went to the SL early, as had to finished some PBL and did some studying as well. so exhausted, I am a person who needs sleep at least 9 hours. but managed to pull through the day, and had a apple lunch :) apple drink, apple yoghurt and apple fruit.

Dinners are now getting pretty interesting btw

Saturday

Woke up about 9-ish, went to the gym came back for brunch ( yay Hash browns) and im thinking of going on a no -carbohydrate eating regime but but i like POTATOES. Cooking channels here are so amazing and cant wait to try the recipes out.

And Sunday, Monday Tuesday wednesday will pass so fast, that it will be Sunday again!

and my favourite and touching scene from Friends :

Routine?!

January 23, 2008

I just finished my mock exam today, consisted of dunno how many questions and i cant remember how many they were, just that i know was busy writing and flipping the pages. It was good* as in to have a mock exam as i could assess my knowledge of the block one and two material ( ie. Hierarchy of Systems and Anatomy) and not to mention Vocational Studies ( Autonomy, consent etc.). Slept at 10 pm the previous day, been having the flu ( cough cold chest pain + fever* i think, as i dont a thermometer with me) and then woke up about 7.15 to catch the 8.20 bus to uni. Went to the library and found a good place to sit, away from the crowd. It was a rather windy day today and not to mention cold. Studied till 12.00 flipping over mindmaps and notes and ate sandwich sneakily in the library. Wonder if was caught on cctv, nearing to 1.00 i went down to the cafeteria and saw my friend Hana from Slovakia and sat next to her. Ate an apple and then went to find the examination venue aka. Bute Hall :) Pretty Huge :) and COLD.

Saw GL, PR, and other friends waiting outside, chatted with them a bit, i wish i had better photographic memory i need gingko nuts!

240 students, 240 bags..

Anyway got settled down, and did the paper, messy handwriting, and not to mention the heart arteries and veins Reminded me of Form 5 stuff :S and why do ppl shake their legs during exams!! irritating ( seok, now i know how it is :D)

And groans : Tonight PBL to do..for tomorrow.

I think my life is too planned out, Its like wake up, prepare lunch, go for breakfast at the dining hall, go to uni, pbl, study landscape, gym go home at 4.10 pm

June Exam : 9 times 6 Pbls = 54 PBLS to revise + Vocational Studies

GRRR… Motivation Needed Desperately

SOS

Seeing the Doctor tomorrow and Attending Margaret’s birthday Party @ Papperinos ! Thats New! :)

I need to Find something new to do! :)
