Faded Beauty Queens
The Prestige was totally awesome. And so was Blood Diamond. Hugh Jackman and Leonardo Dicaprio were absolutely brilliant in playing their respective roles; they both make superlative first class actors. Movies like that, they get you thinking, like what’s the point of taking revenge on someone because of something they did, that has happened when there’s no turning back just for the cycle to repeat itself and cause more pain and misery when one could have easily attained peace of mind and moved on in life through forgiveness of ones sins, and how diamonds are in a way beautiful in the eyes of men but at the same time harbours in it the evil of men. *hint hint to the ladies =P* For the past 4 days, the living room became my bedroom. Yeah, kind of, basically the main reason being I prefer sleeping under a ceiling fan. I have bed bug bites all over me because my bed had bed bugs. Heh. I must say that this time around, KKB was fun; I had a merry good time, which was much better than expected. Perhaps with the right mix of company and improved state of accommodation, everything seemed to fall into place quite nicely, well, except the part where I was being fooled countless of times by lame-ass word games. Sad to say, I missed a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness Man Utd slaughter and trounce Roma 7-1 in an 8 goal blitz Champions League semi-final match at Old Trafford. Man Utd’s performance was beyond God-like, their best I’d say. All you Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool fans out there, be very afraid, there is certainly more to come. Roma’s trashing at Old Trafford is only the tip of the ice-berg. Heh.
Endo was alright, pretty okay I’d put it. The questions were redundant but nonetheless fairly do-able. The only complain I had was that the time given to us, an hour to answer 9 SAQs and 10 MCQs isn’t exactly sufficient to begin with, what more to check if there are any blank spaces left. Looking forward to Repro though, it’ll be a challenge, something different, alot more to learn which makes it more stressful, hopefully it’s not too bad. I’ll fret about that later, but for now, I shall live my life to the fullest be it shopping or going to the movies or simple yum-cha-ing sessions, I’ll make the most of it. Next week, I’ll be doing my GP posting at a clinic in Kuchai Lama, thank God I found a partner, wouldn’t want to be alone at a family health clinic with 2 doctors looking over my shoulders for an entire week, you know. I just hope I don’t screw up and hurt any patients; it isn’t easy being a medical student when any mistake you make might be your last.
Sigh. I feel a great sense of relief by making it this far in life, you know, living till 20 (think of the young ones dying in war-torn countries), making it to university (some don’t even get an education to start with), being able to do what I like, and as far as things go, I think I’m doing pretty fine, or so I’m told. I thank my lucky stars that everything has gone my way the way I wanted them to, although there may have been a couple of road bumps down the years that I had to deal with, but other than that I’m thankful of what I have. Oh how much things have changed when I was just a kid dreaming of inventing the world’s first flying car, or building the tallest building ever, I even dreamt of emulating Bill Gates. Studying medicine was never my ultimate dream; it was an option but not my first. Heh. There’s still a long way to go before I become the person I aspire to be. At least now, before I shut my eyes and go to bed every night, I know that I have made some difference; no matter how little it might have been, in my life and the life of others. Good night peeps. Sleep tight and don’t let the bed bugs bite! =)
