Day 5 and the weekend's here!

It's da weekeeeeeeeeeeeeeend now!! Woohoo! I survived week 1 of my electives!

No more snoozing man. No more lying in bed after I turn off the alarm. Damnit. Woke up the LATEST today out of the whole week. Didn't even have time to shower. Only managed to wash my face and brush teeth. Darn!

Still managed to get to the CDC before 8am. Not bad not bad. Lol.

Ward round this morning as usual. Got asked about transaminases which I knew shit about. So read THAT up during the 'free time' that I had around lunch time. Ask me all about it now lah!!!! Muahahahah.. I can probably answer, erm, 50% of your questions...?*sungguh memalukan la* :P

Went for research meeting at 11am. Gawd I so cannot do lunch-ish time meetings la. Everytime also soooooooooooooooo bloody sleepy. Tak leh tahan!

Ate a Fuji apple for lunch coz it's the only thing I sempat grab this morning while I was rushing rushing rushing. No time to prepare bread. Oh well. Still filling anyway.

Sat in on another consultant's outpatient clinic in the afternoon. (wow i'm too rajin la here. could have gone back but i didn't! so proud of myself lolz. Must be the Sporean spirit! hahahaaha) Was really good to see another consultant's consultation style.

Saw a variety of cases, although all were HIV patients la. Just that everyone had different issues to bring up.

One was about terminal care (and making sure the relatives were prepared to some extent, but the irony was that this particular patient had a very very good CD4 count, and would die in the near future not because of HIV/AIDS but due to severe damage that his lungs had taken from previous TB infections and bronchiectasis), another was about getting pregnant with HIV (and that was coz the mother-in-law who doesn't know about this patient's HIV status wanted a grandson eventhough she already had a granddaughter), yet another was about syphillis and the possibility of being infected in the CNS (with issues of informing other people that you are HIV +ve before having sex with them, and the possibility of being sued and jailed if you did not), and there are the usual lot with financial problems la.

Learnt about MediSave, MediShield, & MediFund.

Learnt about various options for getting pregnant and giving birth when you're HIV +ve.

Stayed til 6pm. OMG. 8am til 6pm. i.e. leave the house at 7.25am and arrive home at nearly 7pm. Wish I was that rajin in Newcastle man. Have to learn how to be this rajin in 5th year! Lol. Have been inspired by my housemates to attain their achievements in final year man! Pressure!!!!!

Had instant noodles and a slice of kaya bread for dinner. Lolz. Then went out with Sharon to the salsa club we went the other day.

Ladies nite tonight. We got in free w/o having to pay cover charge, then from 9.15pm til 1.30am we had this whole list of drinks that we could get free (although the cocktails and mixers were pretty much quite watered down, but still!). Had a couple of really 'light' mojitos, which was okla, but since it was free, I'm not complaining ;P

Finally tried a teensy bit of dancing tonight. Simple cha cha, but pai seh lah. I cannot dance also lolz. But still it was quite fun la. And the guy had good patience :P Sha had a pretty good time though, from the looks of it ;)

Left just before midnight (like Cinderella lol) coz our 'pumpkin carriage' (i.e. the MRT)'s last train back runs at 12.05am. So was back home by 12.30am dy. So 'kuai' huh lolz.

Mom's on the bus now on her way to Singapore. Shopping time this weekend!! Woohoo!!! >.<
