The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.

it's 3.30am. i'm sitting here waiting for my hair to dry. my gown is ironed. my white shirt is starched. i can't help reaching into that pint of rocky road ice cream.




i'm starting to like work more and more. am down with a cold..green mucus!! so as joy reminded it's bacterial not h1n1! today was orientation and there was brunch provided. but my sore throat made me appetite-less. and dear huiling and weiqi offered to get difflam from the wards for me. and niron brought danzen from home for me..awww!
grad night's over! came and went..commencement's next..i feel as if my life's passing by in a whirlwind..slow down alright, going a little too fast for my liking.

thought of certain stuff on the bus ride home earlier. certain places tend to stir such thoughts in me.

and my phone just gave up on me. hanged and couldn't be switched on any longer. went home did a master reset and all my msges from the last two years are gone! ALL OF THEM. it's like the universe is trying to help me. well thank you very much. you sure did.

now silly agnes. wash up and head to bed.

ugh just had bout the most head-splitting monday ever. had like a ton to blog about but just about now i lost the urge to.

UPDATE
i finally finished my drug monograph. that took pretty long. and this is totally random but i've been eating durian daily for the past 5 days! yummers! esp the day my mum bought 12 fruits. haha..the durian seller must have had a field day! but i'm feeling super heaty and spots are appearing all over my face. NOT GOOD. gonna keep away from durian for the next couple of days.

had to start answering calls today at DI. and niron wasn't around. ): still it went alright i guess. the hours at work are starting to pass pretty quickly. it's already week 3. what i don't like is that i'm bringing work home. what keeps me going is meeting with friends at the end of the week. finding refuge and a very lovely dinner at home keeps me sane too.

okay i think i've forgotten how to blog. internet connection is VERY cranky these days. hence the lack of posts. whenever i have tons to pour out, the modem just won't work. and yes almost everyone has asked. we have a new modem but everyone's too lazy to install it. it's been sitting there for over a year already though.

today was one of those days that you put on your ugly clothes that makes you look frumpy because there wasn't time over the weekend to iron clothes. so it matters. the next time you wake up grumpy, wear something nice. will totally change your mood.

and i've been a cow at answering smses and msn messages these past couple of weeks. just can't seem to find a proper schedule between work, rest and play.

its funny how fast the week passes when there's no work on saturday! the days have been flying by and now it's the end of week 2! loads of work to be done still! updates tonight..got to rush for a meeting in the morning..can''t be late!

it's officially mid-week. whoopee coz i'm soo tired. and this week is gonna be a five-day work week!

yesterday was the most fun i had since we started work. went through antimicrobials at work with the DI in-charge and it was so relaxed and fun. niron and i kept laughing coz we were crap at antimicrobials and were struggling to use stanford. but still we learnt a great deal! totally my preferred style of learning.

met mel at her working place at tamp1. the place there looks pretty good! swanky and shiny!

was there coz i met the jc ppl for dinner. we went to dhan's place after to watch alex get his hair cut. after that we had a drink at the bark cafe at changi. then before we headed home to crash, we satisfied our fries craving at macs. reached home at 1am..this morning we're having a meeting with our manager. i'm crossing my fingers and anything that can be crossed that i stay wide awake!

start of a new working week yet again. the weekend is never enough. spent the entire sunday morning sleeping in to gather enough rest for the next week ahead. but because i reached home around 1am after supper on sunday, i'm zombie-fied at work today again. poor niron..i only actually wake up during lunch and after 4pm, but that's when niron becomes sleepy. haha..we work as one entity. waste of manpower really.

i came home and was determined to not fall asleep. but after dinner, while waiting for my mum to cut fruits. i decided to take a nap and woke up only at 11pm. totally missed brain's attempts to show me his girlfriend on webcam! haha..sorry khor khro dile!



spied this butterfly in the balcony while bringing my rabbit's cage out to dry in the sun on sunday! so pretty! i used to be afraid of butterflies loads..refused to step into the butterfly park thing in sentosa as a kid and sulked until my mum brought me up on the cable car ride. but the thing i was most terrified of was clowns. used to duck into shops and hide among clothes whenever i see one approaching in a shopping mall.

anyhows i'm supposed to read a ton of journals and type some antibiotic spectrum thingy into excel but i think i'll leave that til 6am tomorrow morning. think i'll head to bed and wake up early!

met sher dhan greg for a run in the night earlier. we ran then we ate murtabak. yea i know.

koped pics from dhan again..he uploads them so quickly. okay this is post run so excuse the shiny foreheads.


haha love sitting in dhan's car when he drives! i laugh every single time!

okay just msned niron to tell him that i'm not doing any of the work we were assigned to. and he didn't as well! haha..we are both gonna be in trouble but i'm too tired to read up on antimicrobials.

yes i know i shld get used to it. since work has started. but i'm a little bummed about not having a two-day weekend! makes friday so much less fun. at work today, i was practically only physically present, mentally i was floating somewhere in rainbow land. and i think i have to have a word with niron bout it tmr. it's that time of the month. and i was soo tired, i practically ignored him the whole morning. giving him only blank stares as replies. but he was pretty good-natured bout it! i feel horrible now.

met the percussion gals after work for dinner at dhoby ghaut's astons! the fries over there are awesome!


and i really really love spending time with them. they are about the nicest group of people you could hang around with. everyone accepts each one for who they are. they are almost my therapy group when i start getting grouchy, malicious and spiteful. really miss chalet time with them. shijia passed me a cd with the chalet photos today..so sweet of her! so chalet post up soon!

and its dhan's birthday today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!! he invited us over for cake. but i didn't head over coz it was rather late by the time i was back in the east. but when sher, sab and he came over to the tamp prata place for supper, they brought me a slice..superb!



and the pictures are from his cam. dhan uploads pictures super quickly..wonderful! supper was fun. laughed alot at alex's predicament!

and this picture of kate moss makes me want to go cut my hair a little shorter. but noo stop me! she's a supermodel afterall..everything looks good on her!


and just as bakerzin's cakes were brought up when i met both groups of friends, i came home to their cake of the month nestling in the fridge..cheesecake! their offer last month was even better..some choc cake that was out of the world! oh maan it's 3.30am now, i have to report for work at 8.30am later. gonna go zombie niron again.

whoopee! mel's KL photos are up! and i love this photo so much! makes me beam from ear to ear!

i'm on my 3rd day going on to 4th day of work and strangely i'm not excited much. wonder what it means. i was placed along with niron into DI for our first 5 weeks. so i guess it'll be a little slow..great time for me to stuff the things we learnt back into my head.

and niron has been telling me how none of his pants fit him now after all his stuffing in the europe. thought he was just being paranoid til i put on work pants for the first time today and it was soo tight! now we're consoling ourselves over lunch meals saying that 'holiday calories' don't count. yes i know..living in denial right...

and i'm always tired every evening when i reach home. time to adopt good slping habits. was so tempted to take a nap in the evening but i knew it was gonna screw up my slp cycle so headed out for a run to keep me awake and i think i found the perfect spot in tampines to run. it's this huge field that's just beside the expressway to pasir ris. the whole area is pretty huge so the wind there is pretty strong! perfect for running!

its before dawn. i'm tired but i'm awake. wow it's wonderful what starting work does to you.

met sher and dhan yesterday fo 18chefs! dhan is back! we then headed to starbucks to sit around and chat. he's back for 3 months, sher has 3 more weeks of hols but i've started work so i'm quite bummed out coz they're making plans to do something huge for the summer hols but i won't be able to join them in the day!

okay i'm about to be late for work coz fb is taking so long to upload the paintball pictures. but kl eating monsters! if you see this, pictures are up! i've no time to tag yet though!

i'm really tired so i'm not gonna wait til midnight to post this entry. it's 10.30..i'm gonna hit the bed at 11pm have been zombie-ing around the house the entire night coz i slpt at 4am last night..

went running without proper running socks earlier on, wore those skimpy slip on kind and this resulted. felt the pain on my other foot halfway into my run so i was shocked when i came home took off my shoes and saw this! euyew...so much for having glittery insoles!


and it's really encouraging to see so many people running on a monday evening. it's monday! shoudn't everyone stay home and mooch coz the weekends just passed. i passed at least 20 joggers..mostly young women and old men. haha not sure why young men and old women don't run.

and mel msged me today telling me she's working at tamp1 for pre-reg! whooo! welcome to the east mel! easties go visit her!
