I am experiencing a bad episode of ** withdrawals.
Fri night. No Sat 1.30am. Met ^^, sans make up;au nauturale. Parked at Specialists and went on a Starbucks hunt. Sadly, yet expectedly, shutters down at 2am SHARP. :(
Strolled and teased on down aimlessly, in an attempt to negate some calories from brother's syringing of Heineken when i lost in his vicious game of poker earlier that evening. That aside, "" and i landed up at a pool area, where i lost 2-1. Fiasco. Forgiven thou, 3rd try at this, minus yahoo pool.
Headed to ||'s place for dvd marathon but things heated up. The rest: history.
Am in the midst of conditioning --. E.g.: Who is the lady who looks good because she has dark brown faintly seductive eyes? (You)
Driving instructor: "Dont drive like an experienced driver when you're still a learner. Slow down, be patient and look silly checking blindspots all the time." Is that a compliment?
javascript:void(0)
Quoting from PM Lee HL,
"You go to work, you come back from work, you take public transport. You have a car on the weekends, you take your car out for a spin."
Pushing for more red plate users..?
Joining the league-in my TWENTIES.. An exciting expedition up ahead. Looking forward to being 21, start a trading account, adding zeros to my bank account. Yet.. Countless worries bout THIS bleek future. Parliament: Give us all, a sign!

The worst relationships are the ones that wear away at you by attrition.
One modest disappointment after another.
A neglected call.
A missed dinner date.
A forgotten gift.
Love isn't always about grand gestures and flowery apologies.
You never had to spend much time with me.
And I never asked for much - just the certainty that when you said you'd call back, you would. Or that if you couldn't make it in time, you'd let me know.
Simple courtesies like that.
Do you know the amount of time I spent waiting for you to call?
Or keeping my fingers crossed in agony over whether you'd make it to see me?
I would put my plans on hold for up to a week on the off-chance.
Of course I grew tired of waiting.
But then I'd wait some more.
Of course I'd tell myself that I would never let anyone else string me along this way. But when the opportunity presented itself, I'd just do it all over again.
That's why I said that knowledge makes me vulnerable.
Nobody but me should know that I suffered like that.
I never told you because I just wanted the few times we had together to be happy and free of these banal little irritations.
I just assumed things would get better with time.
I never told you because I needed to preserve my dignity.
I was a strong, confident woman who didn't need anyone else in her life, who had a string of people who loved to spend time with her, who went through men like water.
Why was I being over-sensitive and needy and pathetic like this?
Absolutely out of character.
I had to disown that part of myself.
And thus, I had to disown what I felt about you.
And so I did things to sabotage our relationship.
I kept the truth from you.
Because that was the only thing I had control over. I had to convince myself that I didn't care. I had to numb myself to what I felt. I used other men with their tokens of affection to fill the gaping void you tore inside me.That's how it all works together, okay? Like a bird with a broken wing. Looking out at the sky and wanting to fly but knowing it never will. And so it begins to eat away at its feathers and starve itself in despair. Knowing that the more it destroys itself, the less chances it will have to escape the cage it's in. I wanted to respond to you today. And I began to, in a rather clumsy and inadequate way. But you see, I started crying at my phone and everyone started looking at me funny. And I had to stop myself. It's not that I wanted to shut you out. (What would be the point since you know too much already.) It's just that I can't talk about it right now. I just can't. Maybe one day we will have a "Before Sunset" moment. Or not, as life sees fit. You asked if I thought about you. Well I do - and I did especially when I watched that movie. Sentimental me. If you want answers, come find me another day - at the right time and in the right place - and I will tell you everything. Or maybe you will read this and you'll know. Whatever it is, until I next hear from you, take care of yourself.

Sunday ended well after jogging at the mini park with lil sis. Mummy whipped nice dishes the entire day! (Though it was Mother's Day. Haha.) Shall bring her out for celebration this coming Sunday!
Woken up by HIM early in the morning at 8. Wanted to meet him up for Mac's breakfast as i knew i may not be able to meet him in the evening. But he didnt want to. I was made even sadder after knewing that he messaged me only at Admiralty, instead of e 1st step into Spore. Remember when i went for my Genting trip last Dec, i was so anxious to get back to Spore for a long chat on the phone with him.. I activated my auto roam.. and stuff.
Really disappointed in him this time round.
Went for a quick swim at Bishan Swimming Complex. A mere 15mins walk away from home. :D The sun was lovely. Made a quick 30mins swim and went for wash up as i promised to accopany Ping to Sengkang for hair cut. MY JOURNEY WAS 1HOUR VIA MRT AND NE-LINE MAN. Waited bout 1.5 hours for her. In the meantime, went to the bank(which killed 45mins of que-ing time) and idled around Compass Point. BISHAN'S STILL DA BEST. Headed down to Aljunied for interview. It was rather dumb.
Urm.. BEST HIGHLIGHT FOR TODAY :
WE HAD DIM SUM!!! YUMMY. We paid 7 inclusive of Soya bean milk, chee cheong fun, siew mai, har gao, fried carrot cake-white, glutinous rice, fried prawn salad, chin chow jelly.. QUITE A SPREAD. Was supposed to grab a SNACK man. Had a big difficulty ordering food as it was all in Chinese characters. HOW AM I GONNA SURVIVE IN TAI WAN!? Left the ordering and translation to Leen and Ping. :( They told me not to make any sound when they're bargaining in taiwan. (the locals would know we're tourists and overly charge us.)
Cabbed down to the cheapo hairdresser. Ping did treatment and thought it was free from a dye session the other time. Turned out to cost 15$! Leen had a hair cut-$6 only. Jus a trim. I? I chatted a lil with Cady while WAITING.. And browsed thru couple of hairstyle magazines. Have quite a clear picture of what hair style i want next. But the question now is.. To do it in Taiwan or Singapore?! Boo. Shall think bout this on Wed when we plan our itinery.

Oh no. Made a mistake. Its 180. WHAT?! IM ONLY CHARGING 20/HR?! =l Deprived.
Anyways, confirmation for sponsorship's here. And im in this super big dilema. Whether to still go for it or to leave it. Some say.. Take it as a stepping stone.. Its only 2years.. Its our only route(But in 2years, lots can happen) Why not?Its worth it.A gaureenteed job!
How huh!? Pray bout it!
The feelin in me right now is.. Ok ruth, don't take, go NDC upon graduation, work on both kids and adults, then 2-3 years later go private practice.
Hmm.Sounds good? Not as good as getting 900/mth for 1 year, 950 for subsequent. And what will i do with the money? Prob needa pay for the house.. If not, jus save it, prob use it fr further education or something.
Carrying a burden i almost cannot bear. Overwhelming me. But i look to You O Lord.

ITS WEDNESDAY! Kinda felt that the rush's over! This time round.. No exam mood eh! Not at all! Let Your peace be upon me, all the days of my life..
Calculated tuition fees for the mth of April. WOA. ITS 225 $. Kinda.. Shocked! Minus thithe.. AND THAT'LL COVER MY ACCOMODATION LIAO. It's never been so much. Usually, bout 100+ abit.. April's rollin in money!

The prices for air ticket(352 to and fro) and accomodation are irresistable. Ok, air ticket, may plunge in the near future. But definately not for accomodation as we are gonna lodge in Ping's Fren's motel. (Yes, i've decided to go!) So i hope it'll be cheaper? Haha. Moreover, there'll be someone to bring us around!!! Why not eh?! :) Cant wait to try out the food, shoppppppppe, play and stuff. I guess the 1st thing i'll do when i touch down is to visit the salon! By that time, the frizzies would be sprouting like no one's business! (its budding even right now)
Really cant wait for next week(exam week) to breeze pass! The 2 weeks of attachment 'turns me off'. Without that, i could start work, which generates $$$$$$!!!
Oh yes, went out with father and lil sis for lunch yesterday. Seriously i was VERY reluctant. But i went anyway. I needed to have lunch.. And yet save money at the same time. Thank God, father picked a 100$ Takashimaya voucher and it flew into my pocket! What i have sown last Sat during svc indeed brought back a tenfold return! Amen! Cant wait for 6th of May to PARTIEEEEEE!

Any temp job to offer?
In a dilema. To go or not to go.
Where to, u'll say. TAIPEI !!! With Fuglians (Confirmed - Leen and Ping.)
Air tix via JetStarAsia- 325(Tax inclusive)
Accomodation plus food for 9-10 days - approx 500 SGD?
That sums up to 800 $ !!!
How bout shopping, blah blah. Ping says 1k is enough.
But its kinda weird right. I mean.. To go abroad and have fun is not quite possible without spending power. Im not talking bout coming back with bags of LV and Gucci or some other high end brand. But... Aiyah. How should i put it? I hope uunderstand!!!!
In a state of euphoria now! Thinking bout how fun it'd be if i were to go.
But uh huh. Back to reality. Examinations - couple of days away. Next tues, wed, fri and its OVER! Yes, O-V-E-R. And it'd mark the end of my 1st year in NYP. Boo. How fast time flies!

STUDY BREAK! SOUNDS COOL EH!!! Sadly, i wasted monday and tuesday. Monday - busy sorting out the notes and stuff. Tues - Lazed at home till it was time for tuition! Tuition sure was easy today! Simply summarized the Geog Text for Viron and made him write notes! Hope this study method works for him!
Wed - Ping called me up at like.........8.40AM. I AM TIRED CANNNN. But i dragged myself up and headed to sch's library. Studying was REALLY SLOW. Was still at inflammation while she was way ahead of me. Soon came lunch. After lunch, Ping and i went up the lab in search for Dr Hema. Ping wanted to submit her MC. Saw the NEWBIES. They really looked kinda square. But how square they really are can only be 'diagnosed' 3 weeks later? After they open up that nut shell of theirs.
Thurs - Which is today! Still on GOP. Hope to finish GOP today and 2 lectures on Op Tech! Way to go!!!! Thats all for now. Taken a break thats wayyyyy toooooo longgggggg.

Monday - Thurs*18-21/04/05
Only phrase to describe: Life's a straight line . Except for few gossip sessions here and there, clinicals were wayyyy toooo dryyyy. Ar huh. Hitched a ride from Dan on Tues as i had to be at kembangan at 6pm and had somehow met him at the lift. At first he offered to alight us at City hall, then PayaLebar as he had change of plans on his side. Final decision: Drop us off at our respective destinations. Really nice of him. It was polite of him to drive at snail's pace. Too many cool gadgets in that silver box of his i cant remember. Stared blankly at the roads on the Eastern side of Spore-So very foreign! Couple moments of silence after Carmen alighted.
Than came Thurs. Couple of cards to express our gratittude were bought by my fellow class mates. After office hours, Fuglians turned cranky (as usual). We were wrecking havoc at Tutorial 2A! Each of us contributed to the 'design' of the card for the 3rd years. In our concious effort to make our messages turn fugly, it looked ok afterall. Its like.. What we wrote is really creative and has some form of..Stlye incorporated into it. Hence, no matter what horrible colour combi we planted, it was simply NICE. Haha. Is that the correct word? Anyways, that is history. This incident- i will never forget. Somehow, there seem to be hope once again!(Guess u wont know what im referring to here eh.) Consider this warm up session for Friday's geling session.
Friday. Time FLEW. Some parts of it probably disintegrated. Clinicals soon ended. Basically bidding our good byes, expressing thanks to them for being such a great host and not forgetting that 'event' starting with G. Yes, thats right. GOSSIP SESSIONS.
Fondly miss the ppl there. Seriously, what is learnt during the procedures are secondary. Its the communication and interpersonal skills thats primary. Eat the meat, throw the bones. Whats left? Sweet memories. Whats thrown? Complaints of insignificant others.
Library sessions again. B-O-R-I-N-G. An evaluation form was given. One question was: What was the activity u enjoyed most? I had the urge to fill: LIBRARY SESSIONS. AHahahaha.
Early dismissal. We turned from Blue Ducklings to Pulchritudinous Swans. Took 95 down to Holland V. Long walk to the spot of life. Half way thru, 4 of them decided to hail a cab. Leen and i were persistant and wanted to complete the walkathon. Threw some stuff into the cab and headed to Hagen Dazs hands free. Was kinda...Sweating profusely, but we denied. Afterall, they are Fuglies and knew what we were really thinking about. Leen and i were exposed. (We wanted to act as if the walk there was light and breezy but we failed.)
Thrashed 'things' out at Hagen Dazs. Really a great session. All the unhappiness were spelled out. (With elaboration and exampleS!)
An unpleasant incident happened at the ice cream store too. Shallnt elaborate.
Headed to Tango's as WaLaWaLa was full. If only we were 20, we'd go up for the live band at Wala's!
Had Strawberry and Mango Marblahblah PLUS lotsa fooooood. Played games and poked at each other's folly. Great time spent. ('Lady Luck' wasnt smiling at me. I 'striked' several times. But resisted drinking.) How often we get to spend such happy moments together!
Left at bout 9. Went home, smiling to myself. Retired to bed as soon as i got home.

Thurs
Allllright. We forgot bout the Denture session. Oh dear.. Needa look for that lecturer for a sincere apology. The last impression i'd like her to have is that we are a big bunch of useless and forgetful bums.
Friday
WACKING FUN DAY. Ended kinda early. (3Plus) Thats the only best thing that happened today. Haha.
Gotta know lotsa news bout Ah beng. Suddenly all that we talk about would somehow be linked to him! Thoughts of unbelief ran through my mind. Curiosity filled me! Gotta find out more on Monday!!! Like what the hell right. He's the... 2004 Cleo's Top 50 Most Eligible Bachelor.. Ex swimmer.. Owns a factory.. And blah. Alright. From Mon to Fri. Perception bout Ah Beng changed a whole lot. He's rather gentleman. Thats all i could say. No talks bout personal stuff just yet. Probably probing more into this colourful life of his on monday! Spaciality mannnn.. In a foreign ground afterall.. hmm, how should i start?!
Bused down to Holland V. after changing outta that BLUE STUFF. At Holland V, gotta change back cannnn.. Thanks to Cady lorrrrrr. We (Leen ping and i) desperately wanted to wear 'home' clothes, but Cady didnt bring clothes and felt weird. Verdict : ALL OF US CHANGED BACK INTO THAT BLUE STUFF. Jus that now, its more crumpled. Shopped and i bought pumps from x:odus. Sat down for Bites and Cuppa Coffee at Breko. Gossiped larh.. What else man. Left for home at bout 8plus.
Sat
Supper with Dan, Shan, Lyon and Robson after svc. Had zi char together. First time in history mannnn.. Ordered medium, the portion was ALOT. But.. i seriously wasnt feeling fullllll. Reached home at bout 1245am.
Sunday
Me : So when can we remove the braces?
Kenji : Today, if u want.
Me : Alright. Sure.
Kenji : U like the alignment and the bite?
Me : Im ok.
And...... Gone were the days where i had braces on. And i sure look WEIRD to myself! I realised i have BEEEEEG teeth. I prefer myself in braces. I thought i look kinda cute! :P Ok, u'll feel like slapping me after reading this yeah?
Allllright. We forgot bout the Denture session. Oh dear.. Needa look for that lecturer for a sincere apology. The last impression i'd like her to have is that we are a big bunch of useless and forgetful bums.
Friday
WACKING FUN DAY. Ended kinda early. (3Plus) Thats the only best thing that happened today. Haha.
Gotta know lotsa news bout Ah beng. Suddenly all that we talk about would somehow be linked to him! Thoughts of unbelief ran through my mind. Curiosity filled me! Gotta find out more on Monday!!! Like what the hell right. He's the... 2004 Cleo's Top 50 Most Eligible Bachelor.. Ex swimmer.. Owns a factory.. And blah. Alright. From Mon to Fri. Perception bout Ah Beng changed a whole lot. He's rather gentleman. Thats all i could say. No talks bout personal stuff just yet. Probably probing more into this colourful life of his on monday! Spaciality mannnn.. In a foreign ground afterall.. hmm, how should i start?!
Bused down to Holland V. after changing outta that BLUE STUFF. At Holland V, gotta change back cannnn.. Thanks to Cady lorrrrrr. We (Leen ping and i) desperately wanted to wear 'home' clothes, but Cady didnt bring clothes and felt weird. Verdict : ALL OF US CHANGED BACK INTO THAT BLUE STUFF. Jus that now, its more crumpled. Shopped and i bought pumps from x:odus. Sat down for Bites and Cuppa Coffee at Breko. Gossiped larh.. What else man. Left for home at bout 8plus.
Sat
Supper with Dan, Shan, Lyon and Robson after svc. Had zi char together. First time in history mannnn.. Ordered medium, the portion was ALOT. But.. i seriously wasnt feeling fullllll. Reached home at bout 1245am.
Sunday
Me : So when can we remove the braces?
Kenji : Today, if u want.
Me : Alright. Sure.
Kenji : U like the alignment and the bite?
Me : Im ok.

On The First Day Of Christmas My True Love Gave To Me...
I mean, on the first day of attachment..
What else could be worse than putting on the blue cleaners' look-a-like uniform.
On bus no. 95 stood a man in blue collare. And i passed a remark i wish i could take back. I said to Kel : Whichever student in dentistry wearing blue today is quite suay. He'll look like he's one of us!
Outside the Dean's office were pictures taken way back before i was born. Spotted Dr Hema in her younger days. She was SO CHEERY. And she still is now! Cuz she's teaching the cream of the crop-US. Haha.
WOW. An eye opener, indeed! Worked with the 4th years. Nice ppl. Ok, not all. Some were rather shy, some were quite friendly. That foreigner i worked with was really approachable. He made me feel so at home!
Couldnt have been more tired. Stood all the way in the clinic man! Too shy to sit eh.
And yes, the most horrid incident : An old indian lady from DSSU.. (Which we thought at first is a toilet cleaner) said : Same ar Same ar! (Referring to our uniform larhhhh. Dont u get what i mean?)
2nd Day was ALOT better. BORING PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY LECTURE. Was like Oral Health Promotion! 1st 2/3 of the lecture, busy taking down notes. For goodness sake. She rattled on and on so quickly that i couldnt bother much more.
Afternoon sessions were great. Starting to feel alittle more comfortable. But need to adapt to the new faces-e 3rd yrs.
Alright. Some looked arrogant. They probably were shy. And we had this prejudice bout # at the very last part of the day.
2 Funny Incidents
1) A toilet cleaner in off white gave us that kind of 'what-are-u-doing-in-that-blue-top' stare. He was literally giving us a disgusted scan from the crown of my head to the sole of my feet! Pointed that out to Pinggy and we laughed over it.
2) Cady and i were at the ladies brushing and grooming. Than in came a lady, peeking in and she went : Fook u! Cady and i turned and looked at each other, bursting out in hilarious laughter.
Pingy had a needlestick injury today. Fault lying in the in-house departments. The needle was embedded in the gown! Shallnt elaborate on it. They paid in full her medical checkup. Hope all will turn out fine for my darling girl.
Wed
Pinggy didnt join us for today. Feeling feverish, she decided to give today a miss.
Boring time at lab, to the extent we sit down for occassional chats at some discreet corner of the clinic. Only our 3rd day and we are sick of observing. Everything seems mundane.
Gave my first.............................to a guy.
Assisted WeiQiang in charting and procedures in Perio. I know i kinda flopped when he stopped work and wore his goggles. Bah, he probably forgot to wear them. :D not that im not doing a good job. And oh, dont get the wrong idea! Dental Therapist/Hygienist dont assist dentists. Any P6 student with average dexterity can do that closing one eye.
These peeps are really a fabulous bunch of big kids! They have their fair share of fun though they look kinda serious at e clinic, I guess. However the staff were not too hospitable.
Thursday's gonna be fun-something new! A staff invited half the class to pop in for denture making session. Cant wait!
