Thursday, January 25th, 2007

SO SO SO HAPPY THAT I PASSED!  I was so sure I was going to fail…I knew I totally screwed that paper up (two of the sections anyway) but surprise surprise..I passed it anyway!! Yay yay yay yay yay!!!

Now…all I have to do is do well in the finals to try and bring that grade up……

OMG OMG…panic panic panic

So results are popping out now. Just got one of the two last night. It wasn’t a brilliant mark but it wasn’t horrible either. Am not too upset with what I got (Second class honours) but you still can’t help wishing that you did better you know? Its okay though…I’ve got 3 more of these to make up for it….

What i’m really panicking about is that other exam, the one for the module you absolutely needed to pass to move on to second year. The entire exam is replaying over and over in my mind and each time I think about it, I remember mistakes I’ve made..aarrgh…its driving me nutty. I just keep thinking..if I fail this one, I’m going to have to get near perfect in the finals which just puts more stress on me. It doesn’t help that the med school likes ppl to just barely pass the modules. I guess it isn’t enough for them to overload us with so much info at one time..they have to make it extremely difficult to pass as well. AARGH!!!

And another year and term begins…

Yes, a whole new term and a whole new year. Can’t believe its 2007 already. Time has flown by so quickly. It feels like only yesterday that I was in KK at wit’s end because the plans that I originally had for 2006 had fallen through.

The first day back at uni was tough. I struggled to both get up this morn for my 10am and even worse, was trying so so hard not to doze off or daydream during the lectures. My brain unfortunately is only 25% functioning atm and still in holiday mode. Hopefully, this situation will rectify itself by the end of the week.

Hols were great..spent massive amounts of time with Jen and family. Xmas dinner was lovely…tons of food as per usual. Am liking xmas gifts too BUT you know you’re getting old when majority of the clothes you get are professional wear e.g. suits, shirts etc. Oo…I got my first stethoscope ever which is excellent. Got it in black eventhough I had a HUGE range of colours to choose from such as raspberry, burgundy, royal blue etc. Figured black would be best for now.

Met up with Steph and some of Jen’s friends (Angel, Mei, Nimesh and Dickie) during the hols. Went down to London for Japanese dinner and then off to Sound for dancing and drinks. Music in Sound was interesting..they definitely mixed it up with some oldies and newer stuff. Was AWESOME to see Steph again..I miss my boob shimmy partner! :) Jen’s friends were great fun. The entire night was a success.

Was definitely sad to leave on Sun morn. Had a fabulous ‘going away’ dinner the night before. Thanks Uncle William and Auntie Virgie for putting up with my presence for the past 3 weeks. Really appreciate it. Oh and to my 3 cousins (Jen, Nat and Ben), thanks for keeping me company and thoroughly entertained…Missing you all heaps! Looking forward to seeing you again in six months!

Aargh. Just read that Wednesday’s going to be freezing…rain, wind and temperatures as low as 0 degrees. We’re definitely in winter now. May just have to bust out the long john’s which I hate coz they make my legs itch…*sniff*.
