YAY. Finally got started on FYP.
Went to Bright Vision to conduct our very first SGAs.
And I surprised myself, hehehe cantonese I managed to communicate with the ah ma!
At my level of proficiency, I managed to get answers for 2 questions.
So I have to brush up on my cantonese.
What else.
Oh Oh Oh. We were very independent today, going around to conduct SGAs on patients.
We have alot to learn, but I'm glad we managed to start on it.
Cough please go away.
If not you're getting in my way. Can't meet pallitive care patients with cough.
Too risky.
So cool.
We get assess to doctors' handwriting and patient files and see the whole file and conduct SGA and also meet patients and nurses and calculate BMI.
Going there every week to gather valuable information. :)
Bus ride home, managed to get a seat.
My bus ride lasted 25 minutes and cost me $1.09.
So calculating if I should get bus concession in September.
Then if I do, I can hear the student concession sound instead of the adult sound when I tap my card.
I got to sit all the way home XD

Asian Congress of Nutrition 2011
Volunteered with wuwu, zl and ther.
We did registration because we were able to come for all 4 days.
It was a week of black and white, and reporting as early as 0630 at Suntec Convention Center.
All halal meals.
Hence I crave for pork more than ever.
Registration counter, we were so busy.
We had alot of fun didn't we?
Eating and laughing and crapping around.
Our favourite spot and secret: walking around barefooted behind the counter where no one else in front can see our feet. & eating behind the tall registration counter & hiding under the counter.
At the beginning of the week, I even told myself, 4 days is a long period of time, and there's no lessons. Wheeee.
But now? Its over.
It's back to school and projects and fyp.
Zl told me, finally i hear you say fyp.
Now I'm going to write a 150 word reflection for Miss Toh on ACN and include my experiences and the overall event stuff.
She's afraid I won't write positively after we all gave her feedback. erhhhhm.
Anyways, REGISTRATION PEOPLE WERE AWESOME.
Made Tp friends and smart "doctor" friends from the academy of medicine , and uncle mk who is a secret pyschologist. LOL
There was alot of stress involved during the nature of this duty.
We're the counter for everything right?
And we must know how to handle everything.
But we all learned very quickly.
After 4 days of asking for names, registration numbers, handling our badges, getting forms signed.
I printed my FIRST RECEIPT on friday.
With a dragon breathing down my neck.
Handled ticket sales and meeting professors and associate professors and wuwu's best friend from hpb. Charles.
My wu shee lou.
Meijer.
Pity didn't attend Matte's symposium.
Ate many many different types of food.
Those tea time treats.
Many green and red apples.
Drank alot of water and ate ALOT OF MENTOS.
Coped, the suntec paper and the pens back but forgot about the mentos.
I'm currently ....

Very tired everyday.
Feeling very suffocated at home.
My mother, being my mother has decided that she wants to track me down to the end of the world.
Constantly asking me who i'm going out with.
where i'm going.
what time i'm leaving.
what time i'm coming home.
I know thats whats mothers do.
But its a bit too much isn't it?
She just repeated like 3 times to me today that she's going to the office today.
I heard her last night, well and clear.
these things don't need to keep repeating.
i heard ONCE and its enough.
she says it so many times until I can't even be bothered to answer her.
I know I shouldn't do that.Cause she's my mother.
She had me in her womb for 9 months and brought me up.
But she has to cut me some slack these days.
Its really, how do I explain it.
She wants to have a say in everything. I don't feel inclined to tell her things these days cause the answers she gives are predicted mother answers.
There I said it.
Hahhaha she better not find this link and start reading everything.
It'll be another infringement of my privacy.
