as the hols pass, i feel the dread in me build up each day i wake up. because preceptorship is drawing near! and instead of the fun i was imagining when i've received my posting (coz somehow all the pharm ppl i lurve got the same posting), i see the pictures of fellow pharmacy mates slaving over thick drug ref books, i hear of the endless reading ups to be done, and i totally feel their fatigue! eeks..my last week of fun before i get sold to hospital pharmacy slavery!
so here's the last bit of photos i have before the current hols!
sher must be some kind of genius...coz she's made all these by herself! it's like sooo pretty!
anyways she made these cupcakes for sab's bdae surprise. but dang! we got busted by sab...coz greg, sher and i were in greg's car when we headed out of the simpang carpark to get huilin and zy AND drove by mike and sab in mike's car..WITH THE CAR'S INNER LIGHTS ON!!! coz we were writing in sab's card and forgot to turn it off!!!! argh sooo wasted...when sher shouted that sab saw us, there was like pandemonium in the car!!!! haha...

last sunday of the sem before reading week was like this super busy day! service, then yixuan's bdae celeb then meetup with the relatives!
this was taken at the end of service!

then we headed over to this korean restaurant near joo chiat to celebrate yixuan's bdae!
there was a theme and it was off-shoulder tops!
weiqi, my dining pardner that day!
here's us with some raw meat, to be bbq-ed of course..korean bbq!
yay to mel who took this pic of me with the gorgeous wallpaper with her swanky DSLR..
so i reciprocated by taking a pic of parry with my -supposedly to possess anti-shake- digicam ):
junice after her garlic-chilli showdown with yixuan...
then we moved to katong mall for cake-cutting coz the korean restaurant had to close their shutters at 3pm...bzzz....haha we took refuge outside this language centre! and the cake was my fave strawberry shortcake! whooop! i could eat like a barrel of the cream on that cake!
machiam formal class photo
and of course the informal one

then i had to leave for my father's side relatives gathering...the cousins who migrated to philippines came back during their school break..
my uncle put his entire family of him and my aunt, their five kids and two maids in a serviced apartment which makes sense of course since they were gonna be here for 3 weeks. after dinner we young 'uns trooped down to lounge to play pool. my dad wanted to tag along. well, i thought it was because he wanted to let his five sisters chitchat and catch up and being a guy, i guess he wasn't really gonna enjoy that.
but to my surprise, my dad is like a pro at pool!!! my sis and i sat there awe-struck man...
hello? like whatever happened to passing down of skills to the next generation!!!
but after that, we were all 'wooo go papa!!!!'
each time, it was his turn, he would knock out like 3 to 4 balls in a roll...tsk tsk...must be one of those guys who spent all his time in his teens spending his allowance on pool!
then my aunt had to tell me that at his 21st bdae, his party had like dimmed lights and disco music! okay..totally put my dad in a different light in my eyes...
i mean this was the guy who just told me, 'aeh let's go bagdonnalss to try the new green leaf ice cream'...haha..so cute laa!
here's prooof!
so we formed a team against my cousin and his dad so that i could make him teach me!
bernice and i cheering him on!
then my aunt went to get all the uncles down for some pool showdown and my dad still rocked! so yay!!
eee..i'm laughing so i probably missed!
i ended up on the team with two of my other uncles against my dad..sobs sobs!
one of my young cousin who kept shouting, 'let me play let me play let me play!' aiyooo and he was really persistant..so all the uncles decided to just give in in the end...
the may babies in the family...
the aunt and her family who migrated to philippines...i've another aunt who migrated to australia coz she married an aussie ): which means i have like a poor harvest during cny, but i guess my parents are happier...
haha my father and the uncles! this picture is super cute laa...
with my sis and cuz...i think this cousin of mine totally resembles the bee! like same pattern...
and that marked the day before i had to start mugging for the exams...shudders! don't want to think of studying or touching anything pharm-related..2 more weeks to go before preceptorship!
