you will NEVER EVER EVER EVER be able to guess what happened. unless you're dumbledore. but i doubt it.
anyway what happened was...............
i was happily making my way to school bright and early in the morning (was running a little late actually), and as i was walking under this block of flats, a man passed me.
nothing significant, so i didn't notice him particularly.
i continue walking on.... and to my !!!! saw a handphone staring up at me from the pavement!!!
i pick it up, with every intention to check it for its owner's info so that i could return it (i swear man i am like........ full of integrity or whatnot. at least i try my best....).
TO MY UTTER HORROR, when i looked at the phone, what was on the screen was a picture of a naked middle aged woman with a belly staring not-so-innocently back at me!!!!!
it was a picture file in the gallery of the phone.
I HURRIEDLY pressed the 'exit' button (a.k.a. the hanging-up button which exits all functions to go to the main display of the phone) so that i could get to the main display and.... try looking for info on the owner of the phone AND ALSO TO ESCAPE FROM THE HORRIBLE IMAGE.
BUT ALAS! THINGS WERE NOT MEANT TO BE.
for when i went to the main display the wallpaper was that of a woman (i don't know if it was the same woman as before i DO NOT KNOW I DID NOT IN ANY WAY SCRUTINIZE THE PICTURE) giving a man a bl***ob!!!!!!!! you can't see the man but.... you can see his..... ...... it was like... the man who was getting the..... had taken the photo with his phone during the.....
at this point in time i decided there was no way i was going to continue looking for info about the owner.... i mean.. MY EYES!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! MY POOR EYES!!!! horrible horrible images ): disturbing. traumatizing.
so i bent down and put the phone back down on the pavement where i'd seen it (and wished i hadn't).
as i turned to walk away, the man who had walked past me earlier on came back for his phone!!!!
then i walked away hurriedly.

what a very eventful morning.
oh look i survived a week in medical school!
it's just been a ... pretty crazy and hectic week and i had alot of crap to blog about.... just that i didn't have the time cos the past week had a really shitty schedule.....
i've been running into more people than i used to in law school. well, DUH! since law school is pretty much on its own far far away in bukit timah but the kent ridge campus is kinda like.. where everyone else is. i met like 3 people in school on the first day.
then that same day i was out running and i met jj who was cycling along the road in his pink helmet -_- LOL it was utterly random! like i saw this cyclist stopping at a busstop in front of me.
and i thought: omg is that jj??? .... cannot be la where got so coincidental one. it's probably just some stranger waiting for his other cyclist friend/s to catch up with him.
then i turned around but there were not cyclists behind as far as my eyes could see!
so i went nearer and turned out that it was really jj.
LOL
we just kinda.... went -_- and said hi then he left..... how random.
ohk. now... onto things you probably didn't know about med school and life in med school:
1. we have a timetable out for the entire year that has different stuff going on every week!!!! so we have different ending times for each day of the week for different weeks............
2. cadavers aren't scary they're just dry and...... shriveled due to the embalming process to preserve them for longer use.
3. according to the dean, nus med school is ranked 9th in the world's best biomedicine schools according to the THES thing(some ranking thing).. believe it...? or not...? it's up to you man
4. med school likes having receptions. so there's like quite a bit of free food going around sometimes.... 'free' if you don't consider the huge amount that's our school fees.
i can't remember anything else for now.....
i hope i have more time to blog next week man.
but hay i'm still getting used to the freaking waking up at 6.20am thing every morning. and then chionging with the rush hour crowd... -_-
i swear every morning when i wake up this whole string of curses go through my head for about 10 seconds before i come to the conclusion that i chose this and therefore have no choice but to accept it.
i have hope that everything will be better (:
and hope everyone's doing gooood in school (: (:
oh wow, school. and mind games.
11:35 PM
HAHA i am having such a fantastic night before the first day of med school (a.k.a. first day of the rest of my life)!!!!
this afternoon i happily decided to check my timetable and shit for the rest of this week....... and this is what i discovered:
1. monday - ending at 6+++. this is kinda expected cos there's some dean's talk.... welcome thingum which i assumed meant that it would be the only LATE day cos it's... well, a special welcome thingum.
2. tuesday - ending at 5pm.
3. wednesday - ending at 4pm. OH AND GOT FIRST AID MCQ TEST!!! whooppeeee test already!
4. thursday - ending at 5pm. (rolls eyes)
5. friday - 1.30pm! YAY the world is fair (for a bit.)
yea... so... i've got a really intense first week? and i forgot to mention that school begins at 8.30am every single day. HAHAHAHA
i think this is med school playing mind games with the first year students. you know? like passive aggressiveness on the part of med school, to give the first years an extremely shitty first week so that we are all kept on our toes.............
but it's ohk i see right through all that bullshit man. so i'm cool. really i am.... LOLZ.
OMG. and i also.. discovered alot of tense going-ons that have been happening while i have been mia...... hrmmmmmmmmmmmmm everything's set for it to be a super exciting school year LOLz.
i don't think i need all these drama in my life though. it's like............... all these is a sudden jolt back to The Real Life or something.
i have some emo things i wanna say but OMG i have no time!!!!! i shall do the emo entry on wednesday after my First Test of the School Year. so please look out for it if you like emo stuff.
p.s. on a side note (a.k.a. random rumble), i am so pissed with myself and my stupidity + scatter-brainedness. remember i was saying in the previous entry that i'd managed to clean my room in preparation for school? well guess what. i discovered this morning that i'd thrown away an entire stack of one of my kids' answer sheets to all her assessment books....................... -_-" wonderful. i amaze myself all the time......
p.p.s. school is supposed to begin at 8.30am tomorrow. but ALAS GUESS WHAT????? people are actually going at 7am... NO, correction, REACH SCHOOL at 7am to make sure that they get GOOD SEATS in the lecture theatre! because (gasp!) your seat tomorrow will be your seat for the rest of the year!!!!!!!!! oh wow.
this deserves a WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!! from me. and a big _|_ to... well.. i don't know. (shrugs) life in general? and the general state of retardedness.
but really i would like to say that i am happy to be starting med school tomo. more than happy. i am................. ecstatic + elated + euphoric... and other happy words starting with 'e' that you can think of.
oh how could i forget (:
it's wonderful mei mei's birthday!!!!
so happy birthday mei mei!!!!!!!!!!!
love you (: (:
saying goodbye to memo saturdays
11:30 PM
so i decided to clean my room today to prepare for school which begins in a day.
i'm not sure... i'm really ready yet.
i'm still in a holiday mood, wanting to sleep away my days.
it's scary how i'm not really making a hugeeee effort to hang out with the med school og. i didn't even see them at all this entire week....
i guess i just keep thinking there's gonna be 5 more years so....
i don't know what's gonna happen in the next 5 years, and then the 5 years after that.
i still..... i don't know.
i was cleaning out my room and ... decided to keep things like the law school acceptance letter... i'm just in a really really weird and nostalgic mood now.
so many things going through my head but i'm not really sure what to make of all of it.
i'll need to ease myself back into school mode though that's for sure. and i think by the end of one week of school i'll have a better idea of where i'm heading... and.... maybe by then i would have achieved closure of some sort regarding certain things.
oops didn't mean for such an emo entry really LOLz.
<3,
xuan

10:14 PM

SECRET
11:38 PM
i won't tell you what happened in jay chou's new movie 'secret'
BECAUSE IT IS CLEARLY A SECRET!!!!!!!! as indicated by the movie title.
so please go watch it yourself!!!!! (gasp)
it is really pretty stunning.. so yes. go watch go watch!!!!!
p.s. tomorrow my Very Strict Diet Regime begins till December.
i have let myself go for far tooo long........ zz
now it's done
10:32 PM
today my 2 cousins and i signed our names on 6 sheets of paper which effectively sealed my fate for the next 10 years.
somehow even after some 2 months have passed since i first saw that i'd been offered a place in medical school, it still hasn't sunk in yet.
it did sink in a little today though.
i remember having to write my name and the names of my cousins on the bond papers and hearing the witness saying to my cousins, '.... in the event that she breaks her bond, the both of you will be jointly liable for $405k (? maybe i can't remember. all i know is that the sum of liquidated damages got adjusted UPWARDS. it was estimated at $350k in the freshman's guide)....'
and i smiled. LOL. cos it's so utterly ridiculous to think about me breaking the bond and leaving my poor cousins liable for that amount of money.
besides where in the world could i go after graduating from medical school even if i wanted to break the bond.....?
i am actually waiting for school to begin...
to begin a new life.
when i attempted to matriculate today, the lady who was in charge told me that although i'm a current student of NUS it's as good as me 'starting on a new slate'....
and then she kindly informed me that i am not able to purchase a laptop at a discounted price because i am not 'new' by definition.
zzzzzz
today something very very dramatic also happened during the guys' time to sign the bond papers!! unfortunately i wasn't there to witness it.
apparently some poor freshman was talking on the phone when he ran right into a glass door.
the glass pane above the door promptly shattered and injured him. thus leaving blood stains on the floor and stuff.
poor poor dude. the irony of it all actually......... he will remember this day forever LOL
schooooool...!!!!!
always, forever, and an eternity after (:
O M G ! ! ! ! !
8:15 PM
I AM BACK!!!!!
from my super super super duper long hiatus....
LOL i don't think anybody checks this now. it has probably long been classified under one of those blogs that just aren't updated anymore due to their owners being lazy asses or otherwise.
BUT I AM BACK!!!!!!!!
after holding my silence for 2 months i am finally back here.
i think it must be cause voldemort is dead now. MUST BE.
i can't even begin to tell you how truly magical the book was.
i'm not gonna let on any spoilers. don't worry i'm not that much of an asshole. there are already enough spoilers floating around as it is.
i would just say...... welll the actor playing severus snape must be pretty happy to read the final book (:
AND i also realised something random while i was caught up in the 2nd last chapter of the book, lost in the world of wands and giants and dark curses and a certain dark lord... and that is
imagine how funny it is if you were one of the actors in the cast of harry potter!!! having to read the book to discover if your character's gonna make it till the end..... heh. cos the length of time you appear in the movie's gonna affect your wages and stuff. LOL. that's pretty amusing... (: i bet they'd all rush to read the book then text/msg each other to say things like 'OMG I DIED AT PG _____ SHIT...!!!!! THAT MEANS I WILL BE JOBLESS AFTER CRAP CRAP CRAP I HATE JK ROWLING FOR KILLING ME OFF THAT EARLY!!!!' or 'OMG i absolutely adore that woman it'll be so cool doing _______ on pg ______!!!!!'
on a sidenote i have no idea how they're gonna make this last one into a movie..... oh but they do have their ways don't they.
jk rowling is fantastic. it's like i envision her having this room... called The Harry Potter Room. and in this very special room she has this HUMONGOUS GINORMOUS ENORMOUS mindmap listing out all the details of the main plot, sub plots, sub sub plots, wicked twists and turns, and other not really relevant but interesting parts of the story.
she sits in this room all day. adding, removing post-its and little notes. scribbling here and there. frowning, deep in thought. then she decides which parts go into which book, and looks around for loopholes. she grins as she imagines stunning readers with crazy twists and unexpected developments in the story.......
a for amazing.
ohk i've ranted enough about harry potter i'm beginning to sound a bit like a nerd.
the moral of the story of harry potter (discovered after finishing all 7 books):
you think you know, but you really don't.
been a month since the summer hols began...

yay final fantasy 12! and the spare tv which my dad has kindly moved into my room and is now sitting on my study table (ex-study table. to be revived when the new school year starts. there's no space left on it to do any form of quasi-studying now that the tv's there). it is permanently hooked onto the ps 2 (: and ff12 WHOOPPEEEEEE gogogo!
