My Day!

I think my previous post just contradicted this... but im going to write anyway. :) And in the most annoying and BORING way EVER. ha ha.

0745: woke up, showered
0810: arrived at uni, just as tutorial was starting. *phew* Since i was rushing in, sat next to the first person i saw which is madeline. poor conie, sat alone for tut- ther was about 3 seats empty on either side of her!
0900: attempted to revise some physio for the coming test... actually did do some revision :)
1010: attended biochem lecture. confused.
1100: met up with kim to finish off pharmaceutics report. Paul was supposed to be there too. No show. So we finished it off. except for a graph that we were waiting from paul.
1145: joined Conie for lunch. met ChongEn and Emily at the cafeteria. Everyone was having a sandwich. i didnt eat till later when everyone left though. en and emily went to class at 12. conie went for her test at 1. i finishse dmy sandwich, then went to the library to attempt to study more before the test.
1400: went to BJ building for my physio practical test.
1500: came out from test. it wasn't too bad :) Went to look for conie in the library. then went online for a while... then we left uni and went to the library to collect my DVD- Shrek 3! FINALLY im going to watch it tonight.
1600: met up with chian ur and madeline at a warehouse sale. Didnt shop... The plan of meeting up was to eat anyway. so we went to McD's where chian ur and mad got dessert... and conie and i got some KFC. then chian ur and mad wanted fries from KFC too. so they bought some.
Ate at the foodcourt.
1715: madeline had to leave because it was getting dark. chian ur, conie and i stayed for a while longer. talking.
1745ish: conie and chian ur went home, i made my way back to uni library. Wanted to read up some things about dermatological products to be prepared for my tut tomorrow. read a bit, took some notes. then.... i started falling asleep.
1845: decided it was time to stop trying to read. went on the computer to send off the completed report to paul and to see his graph- not bad. we can use that. went online for a while and conie asked if i wanted to go out tonight to watch a basketball game. ken asked her. im tired. and its not as if i had a personal invitation to go watch his game. i dont even know who he's playing. so im not going.

currently blogging about an incredibly fast, but long day... and how its been 11 hours since i left home this morning. About time i go home and get some rest. and watch my shrek 3 DVD! :)

Priorities!

15% of Physio grades will be completed in 50 minutes tomorrow. its 1:40am. I haven't really LOOKED At my physio practical notes yet. why am I not studying? why am i not worried?

Oh great. after writing that my heart suddenly started beating really quickly. I guess i have to see it in black and white for me to realise the magnitude of this test. It's weighs more than the multiple choice test that i spent quite a long time studying for. and this time its SUBJECTIVE. and ive failed one test for physio already so i cannot afford to screw up another one. strangely enough i spent quite a lot of time studying for that one too.

yes. i think i'll do with less sleep tonight and start studying.

and to think i've spent about 8 hours in the past few days on my pharmaceutics GROUP report which is only worth 7.5%.

and i just wasted about another half an hour thinking about the meeting on saturday and writing to the committee.

stupid girl. sort out your priorities!

i'm tempted to skip pchem analytical tutorial tomorrow since i havent really looked at any of the questions yet... but im completely lost in that subject and not going would only make things worse. ugh.

I've been reading people's blogs.
some people really just blog about anything.
i like reading about what people did and how they're feeling for the day. im such a pat po. Haha.

what about me? im too lazy to write about that myself.
So i just read.

:)

its COLD. ugh.

linkin park?

all of a sudden... i cant figure out why. i really like their music..... the same old ones that came out aaaaaages ago....

then i realised i never liked them so i don't have ANY of their music on my computer... anyone want to donate some to me? :P

if you're wondering how i suddenly like listening to them when i dont even have their music on my computer, i listen at radioblogclub.com. except sometimes it doesn't work and its extremely ANNOYING.

mumble jumble

its a horrible feeling when you've found something to hold on to forever when suddenly a little thing brings you so close to losing it. it's frightening. never ever ever do i want it to happen again. but some things need to happen to make it stronger.

I learnt how to fry dumplings today. Didn't quite work out the way i wanted it to when i tried, but could have been worse.

Manager shouted at us last night. i wanted to retort(i had reasons for whatver she was complaining about) but im not the kind of person who shouts back at a senior. i wasn't in the mood to talk much anywy. I didn't say much to anyone last night.

Yesterday was a crap day.

i hate it when i put in so much time and effort into something and realise in the end of the day what you did does not matter. what you did does not count. what you did doesn't help with anything. what you did was a complete waste of time. i hate how they assume we know so much in pharmaceutics. they assume we know what to look for, they assume we know how to interpret what we read, they assume we have so much free time to look things up and even go to the pharmacy to see what other products are available. what the hell...

i also hate how i do things that i know isnt good for me. eating so much crap. sleeping at stupid hours. staring at the tv screen for hours when i have so much work to do. i know i shouldn't be wasting so much time because there is no time to waste. but i do anywya. and for that i hate myself. i know i've been putting on weight ever since uni started i know that from the scales and from the MIRROR. but i eat anyway. because i see food that i like, and i buy. and when i buy, i have it at home, and i see it, when i see it, i open, when i open i eat. and i don't stop.

this is another thing i'm doing to waste time. i'm so glad in a way that tomorrow's clinical pharmacy work at QEH is cancelled. if not i wont have any time to study this weekend- since now im spending my 4 hours of 'study time' watching greys anatomy, going on facebook, replying emails, and blogging.

dammit.i better get off blogspot right now.

what a mushed up blog entry. a bit like mashed potatoes with finely chopped mushrooms and bacon. except it doesn't taste as good.

ugh. enough about food. =.=

Here's for you.

When I'm mad you talk to me and everything's ok

When I'm mean, you tell me the truth

When I'm unhappy, you cheer me up

When I'm hungry, you bring me food

You bring out the fun crazy side in me

(and sometimes) you remind me about the innocent side of life

You're my Conie... :)

My problem...

I don't listen
I don't care much about what people say
I say what I feel like saying
I do what I feel like doing.

=S

Of course this doesn't apply to everyone i meet. This mainly refers to my friends. i realise i dont listen to my friends. I really should... it would make me a better friend. at the moment im being a sucky friend. I just blab blablablab when i feel like it. and shutup and not listen when i feel like it.


Another thing. The problem used to be cramps. At one point its cramps AND a headache. Now its just a Headache. and a BAD one. i hate headaches. i couldnt sleep last night. i went to bed at 12:30ish with a slight headache. i thought maybe i could just fall asleep and wake up feeling fine. But i tossed and turned (Forgetting that i get a bit of insomnia during this time of month anyway) and at 3:30 i couldnt take it anymore. i decided to take a couple of panadols.. and 15mins after that i was sound asleep... (ah.. the amazing powers of panadol!) until my alarm went off at 6:50am! ugh. i slept on till about 7:30 thoiugh. so i had about 4 hrs of sleep last night. and i managed to stay awake throughout my 8am lecture. not bad eh.

When I'm mad you calm me down
When I'm mean, you remind me to be nice
When I'm unhappy, you cheer me up
You help me sleep at night
You bring out the child in me
You remind me about the innocent side of life


You're my Zilzie... :)

i love you
and i hate you
but i need you
so i love you anyway.

Pharmaceutics...

was fun today :)

We made something called 'simple ointment' which is a base ointment that we can then use to put in medicated stuff... and becomes a useful ointment. Then with the simple ointment we did stuff...

So after making the simple ointment, the first part was to mix it with a liquid. There was this red solution that we had to mix in and I'm surprised how such an oily thing can take up liquid! The ointment/creamy thing turned a pretty pink colour. :) (on the other hand, the white soft paraffin we used just didn't take up any liquid like we expected... lousy time wasting experiment. have you tried playing with the oil that comes out when you roast lamb? w.s. paraffin is like that. try mixing any water in with it... if you manage to get water in the middle of it, then squish it- water comes squirting out! :p)

Then we made zinc oxide and sulphur cream. Using the simple ointment as a base, we mixed in zinc oxide and sulphur powders...
playing with cream is FUN. but wow... it's amazing how much energy it consumes to try to crunch up little powder lumps and making sure the mixture is smooth...
but it was fun. :) (and the best part- this whole thing isn't graded! so no pressure, no stress. just... interesting, you learn something, and its fun)

So when i was finished, i arranged all my equipment, and products to look pretty all prepared for a sneak photo taking session in the lab... when i remembered I FORGOT MY PHONE. (yea... if someone about 10 years ago read this they'll be like.. wth... you don't need a PHONE to take pictures...) but yes.. i forgot my phone. and therefore i couldn't take pictures of my stuff. :'(

Oh well. Maybe next year. Or even next semester! do we get to do this next semester...?

DAMMIT.

I had always been proud to be one of those people who know they will never lose their work on the computer because I would save it on the computer, on my thumbdrive AND on email. There's NO way I was going to be one of those people who suffers having to re-write everything over again.
Unfortunately for me,
That just changed.

Ok, I didn't lose EVERYTHING, But i spent a couple of hours writing up the abstracts of my chemistry reports, re-formatting the results and conclusion parts, and i even managed to get a couple of references in there. Now?
GONE.

How? Long story. But it was partially my fault.

So now I'm trying to re-write my abstract before I forget everything that I wrote in there.

Everything's going wrong today.

I feel like crying.

As winter approaches

I realise...

I could do with a hot water flask (or is it called a thermos?). Just imagine how convenient having a flask would be. I can carry hot drinks to work, to uni, to study... to my room... and it'll stay warm! Yep, I need a flask. Maybe i could go buy one. Harris scarfe seems to be on sale... But I doubt they have pretty flasks there. I could get one like Conie has. with PPG on it :P

haha. yes i am indeed a copy cat. meow.

I found these online... aren't they pretty?

high fat diet

This is so bad. so so bad...
i'm not even going to explain what ive been eating and how little exercise I've been doing. It's too embarassing. and if my mum finds her way here i'll be in big trouble :P
SO.
i'm just going to say that i seem to be on a weight-gain diet and i hope ill find the time soon to um... eat healthier and exercise more.
later. once the whole exam thing is over.
yea... i know that's about a couple of months away, but i don't have the time to sort out my lifestyle right now.... =S

AH!!!!!

Thanks to Kavi's blog (and no, im not blaming her) I found out that exam schedule is OUT. There's NO WAY I can finish revision by then!! everything's all bunched up together! and we've got chemistry reports and pharmaceutics dispensing test the same week as our biochem FINAL exam! WTH. what kind of planning is this!?

biochem-21st june
pharmaceutics- 23rd june

Physiology- 27th june

Pchem(analytical)- 28th june

Pchem(organic)- 3rd july

(leftistmoon.wordpress.com)

As expected.

I knew it would happen.
Stupid application questions.
I thought he said the questions would be similar to tutorial questions.
He Lied.

5 people online???
ONLY!??
that's a first. I think msn has a problem.
that's strange man.
just a while ago a long list of adelaide ppl were online
now there's uh... 2.
o.O

It's a nice feeling when you feel prepared for a test.

But it sucks if you come out knowing you were so confident, but you messed up the exam because you missed out something when you were studying. =S

It's happened before.

Can you run out of love?

I was in the shower one day and my brain was being very active. I can't figure out why.... But it came up with something like this...

What if love was like a bar of chocolate, and every single person has a big bar of Love? You could keep it all to yourself, but that's rather silly. So you give a big chunk to your mum and dad, a big chunk to your sister and brother, a rather big chunk to your best friend, and a bit to your other friends and family (and keep a little bit for yourself because if you have to love yourself somewhat, if not there's no reason to live). Over time, that bar of chocolate gets smaller and smaller... and one day it will finish! There isn't enough to share with so many people and you run out of love...
Wouldn't that be sad?

Fortunately for us, love isn't like that. :) It regenerates. There's too much of it to just... run out... And if you do run out of love to give, remember there's always someone who gave you some. So instead of keeping the love you got for yourself, you can share that with others... :)

Hey, its like the carbon cycle. it regenerates. wait.. was it the carbon cycle? hm. nevermind.

This is such a pointless post. It doesn't even make much sense. Sometimes my brain comes up with weird things...

PHYSIO!

oh no! another test!

Just as I thought my schedule is as full as it can get!



:(

MAY!

I think April 08 beats the old record for most blog entries in the month. And it's a 30 day month! (i think the last record was 20 posts in May 06, and may has 31 days :P)

I just felt like my blog needed an update... so I decided to write something.

Pharmaceutics prac tmorrow. I've been at uni for 3 hours already. I've done ONE page of actual WORK. what a waste of time. i feel like a complete failure today. I wasted SO much time. =.= So in about 5 mins time I need to go back to my pharmaceutics, and see what else I can do. I hate pharmaceutical calculations. So confusing. I spent so much time on it and i'm 70% sure that when I go to class tomorrow, I will be told that what I have done was wrong. And I'll have to start all over again.

Why don't all pharmacies just get an analytical balance? Then we can weigh out small amounts... saves time. and stuff...

I wanted to leave you guys with a witty comic or something of that sort, but I couldn't find anything relevant. So too bad.

Instead, I'll leave you with this.

Have a nice day!
