haven been blogging recently...working long hours for starhub everyday. not in a good mood today. firstly missed the camp mumbo meeting coz i woke up late. had a few rubbish games of beach volleyball yesterday and then not being able to play today to make up for it. ended up wasting the whole day by sleeping till 4pm.
jun's chalet was fun. kanna sabo for no apparent reason. junting u must learn that it is the right of the friends to sabotage the birthday ger and u cant retaliate :p . taught them some new ways of playing heart attack too...haha.
working at starhub has never been this good. there are now separate counters for everyone and there's chairs! so i am able to sit down the whole day. there are not that many customers also so there's time to slack. working with some new people thats also quite fun-loving.
realised i lost a lot of muscle mass recently. my body is starting to disgust me. yet couldnt find the motivation nor time to train real hard. living the life of a slacker is easy and good ;) . okie shall go for a jog now and maybe play mahjong later.

okie shall reveal the answer. its the german. for those of you who solved it and think that you are one of the top 2% of the population, stop dreaming! i can solve it and i dont think im am or going to be the top 2% anytime soon :p.
finally my agony has ended. hate working at polyclinics. hate working with old x-ray tubes. hate working with radiographers who dont trust students. hate doing less than 10 cases a day. think i went through 2 of the worst polyclinics rather smoothly. but i ended up with only 2 competencies for the whole block. i think tats the lowest record in my course sia. hee shen will be so shocked. wat to do...
will be working the whole of next week for starhub. their major roadshow came at the right time man. now i can get some real money for my labour and not just a report at the end of the week. hmm...sounds like i hate attachment lots. its not that, i love working at cgh...maybe the polyclinics have somewhat disheartened me. anyway should be working real long hours...must push myself to slog through this week to solve my poverty :p .
hmm...nowadays gers can be so forthcoming even when they are attached.

this is a good test of ur reasoning.
1.There are 5 houses in 5 different colours. In each house lives a person with a different nationality.
2.The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet.
3.No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same beverage.
The question is “Who owns the fish?’
Facts:
The Brit lives in the red house
The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
The Dane drinks tea.
The green house is on the left of the white house.
The green house’s owner drinks coffee.
The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
The man living in the center house drinks milk.
The Norwegian lives in the first house.
The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats.
The man who keeps the horse lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
The owner who smokes Bluemasters drinks beer.
The German smokes Prince.
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
The man who smokes Blends has a neighbor who drinks water.
some motivation for u all. supposedly only 2% of the world population can solve this ;)

had the best indoor volleyball training to date just now! it was simply fantastic. dunno what came over me today. i was high like nobody's business. i never did so much talking on the court before. i was calling for the ball and encouraging and communicating between team mates. i was even the setter during the team's free spiking time. i was able to set most of the ball cleanly without any spin and give them whatever set they want. i was able to go up and wait for the setter to give me the ball during quick sets and spiked them down hard just using my wrist. in short its a dream come true!! i know i will probably never be able to do this again. i think its the effect of watching high standard volleyball over the weekend and not being able to play. speaking of the weekend, it was a great competition. really admire the hong kong girls' team. their defence is awesome and their never say die spirit won them the championship. the australian guys had so many breathtaking spikes that i lost count. it was a definite eye opener. never learn so much about beach volleyball. im so in love~ ~ ~with beach volleyball!

mrs tay gave me quite a reasonable report. i actually worn my ear stud to work on monday morning as i forgot to take out after the weekend. luckily she didnt notice it. or maybe she did but just closed one eye since i removed it a couple hours later. she is actually quite a nice person lah. tink u all should not be apprenhensive about going there anymore. just that it can get a bit boring with less than 10 cases a day.
going to the quiksilver invitational beach volleyball competition at marina promenade tomorrow to work as a ball picker. so excited. its the first international beach competition im going to watch! there will be teams from australia, new zealand and hong kong. whole weekend burnt(literally) but definately worth it! guys drop by if u are interested, there will be matches all day long.

die le, i have only 2 competencies so far. 1st 2 weeks i was busy with stats project and other stuff that i was too tired to write reports of "julian's standard" so i didnt do much. tink this 2 weeks at polyclinic also dont need to get any liao, at most 1 or 2 at geylang loh. but i see everyone got like 6 lah, 8 lah...so demoralising.
watched four brothers just now...a so-so movie, nothing special. had an enjoyable dinner though...not so much the food but the company ;) .
surprisingly, mrs tay is quite nice to me at bukit merah polyclinic. 2 more days to go, hope i dont do anything stupid to incur her wrath and all shall be fine.
alrite just a quick update...very lazy to elaborate on things.

成:解开我最神秘的等待
星星坠落风在吹动
终于再将你拥入怀中
两颗心颤抖
相信我不变的真心
千年等待有我承诺
无论经过多少的寒冬
我决不放手
(韩)金:现在紧抓住我的手闭上眼睛
请你回想起过去我们恋爱的日子
我们是因为太爱
所以更使得我们痛苦
我们连"爱你"这句话都无法讲
成:每一夜被心痛穿越
思念永没有终点
早习惯了孤独像随
我微笑面对
相信我我选择等待
再多苦痛也不闪躲
只有你的温柔能解救
无边的冷漠
(韩)金:现在紧抓住我的手闭上眼睛
请你回想起过去我们恋爱的日子
我们是因为太爱
所以更使得我们痛苦
我们连"爱你"这句话都无法讲
合:让爱成为你我心中
那永远盛开的花
穿越时空绝不低头永不放弃的梦
我们是因为太爱
所以更使得我们痛苦
我们连"爱你"这句话都无法讲
让爱成为你我心中
那永远盛开的花
我们千万不要忘记我们的约定
唯有真爱追随你我
穿越无尽时空
我们连"爱你"这句话都无法讲
成:爱是心中唯一不变美丽的神话

finally finished my statistics project after meeting up with my group from monday to wednesday. it was very physically draining to go down to school after one whole day of work. after reaching home around 10pm, i really have no energy to write my compentency reports. im so tired that i never fail to concuss on the bus ride home. keep knocking into the person beside me and i think i actually drool on a few occasions. so super embarrassing. i dont have to meet up for project today and look what i have been able to do. took a 4 hours nap (!), wrote 2 compentency reports and found time to blog.
is it really so hard for me to confirm my feelings for a person? other guys seem to have no problem with it. they can woo a ger they know for 5 minutes (exaggeration lah :p). i always seem to be thinking too much. do i really like the ger or do i like the feeling of being in love, protecting a person or even just for company? and i always managed to convince myself its not the person i really like and give up. there's another problem. sometimes i dont even realise i like a person until people around me ask me why i am so nice to a particular person. then i will start wondering...
had some mixed remarks about us in clinicals. one of the radiographers sort of praised me about my technique. he mentioned that among this batch of ppl at cgh, im one of the few people who knows my work. hehe so happy. im not boasting here lah...just that its very seldom that radiographers praise students directly and therefore im quite pleased to hear that kind of comment. but that made me more conscious around him as i dont want to spoil the good impression. the bad thing is that on the 4th day of the 2nd week at cgh, one of the senior radiographers suddenly doubted our ability. why he took so long to do this i dont know. i THINK (disclaimer) he went around telling the other radiographers not to let us do cases by ourselves. its quite demoralising really. if its the first day we're there and he's not sure of our ability and he did that to observe us, im fine with it. but its already the second last day and he suddenly did this, that means that must be something we did wrong. and he looked at me for a few moments after i did the supraspinatous outlet view w/o using bucky. its not my fault that i didnt use grid loh, the radiographers there all do non-grid for shoulder. and the image was good loh save for the fact that it was grainy (exposure not set by me). dont know whether it will be another case of bad reputation for our cohort. thanks to the radiographer who defended me.
ok enough writing for the night. one last thing: the special someone is just a good buddy lah. if i dont clear this up, she'll be angry with me :p

had supper with a special person last fri night. she came all the way down from tanjong pagar to serangoon garden after her class just so she can hear me grumble about my misfortunes at work. i can really connect with her and we chatted about many other things as well. we had so much to chat about until we talked on the phone for hours after i sent her home after midnight. thanks for always being there for me and lending a listening ear. appreciate it very much.

the weekend has come and pass. even though its packed already, but there is still not enough time! there's still so many things i wanna do, rollerblade, mahjong, go jb, club (at momo, heard its so good!) and of coz more beach volleyball!
heard something from someone that jolted me quite a bit. how can people pass judgement and deemed me as the bad guy without even hearing my side of the story? well, i guessed tats just so typical of humans, even i am guilty of it sometimes...
actually am feeling quite terrible now. hence the disjointed writing. normally i am able to vent out my feelings in an indirect and cryptic manner such that only the intended person/s will understand. but now i cant even express myself anymore. have decided not to care abt anything liao...going to concentrate on training for a beach volleyball youth cup in november so hopefully can spend my entire weekends at the beach.
