FML

Eeeekkkssss!!!!!!

I thought it was gonna be a pretty cruisy weekend once I finish the preso for Wednesday.... So I went for a 2 hour run after I finished it this evening.

Came home, had dinner, drank my tea, ate my mint slices.... sat in front of the tele and watched a movie... Accidental Husband. Quite funny.

Came online and checked WebCT and realized I've got:
  1. 3 chapters of reading for Advanced physio lecture on Monday which they will pick people to answer questions so I gotta to the damn readings ....
  2. Watch videos before Advanced physio tutorial by Tuesday
  3. 4 articles to read for by Thursday and answer questions of Paeds tutorial
  4. Abstract handed in by Wednesday 5pm for selected pops which I haven't started my research on. I thought it was due next week!!!

I've not said this before but... FML. FML indeed.

So much for wanting to go to a cafe tomorrow morning and have eggs benedict. So much for wanting to treat myself after a long run today.

Will have to keep it for next weekend.. provided there's no more surprises like this.

urghhh

This older people presentation is a huge pain in the arse!!!!

So time consuming and it's not even worth it. Wasted like 4 pounds on skype to do phone calls and it's such a waste... Far out!!!! I could be doing better things really.....

Round and round it goes

One week filled with good news, and then wham!! The next week filled with bad ones. With the bad ones relating to the good ones so it cancels the good ones out.

It's been like that for a few cycles now throughout the year. When will this end? When will there be a time where the good news remain good and gets better?

When will the world stop being so cruel? It's not me getting it but I'm feeling the effects too. I feel for you bro!!

*sigh*

Power Yoga

Went for Power Yoga 5 out of 8 days ($25 intro offer for 14 days, that's why :p)

Yoga made me stretch places I never really stretched before. Well, not like I stretch a lot in the first place. I hate stretching. I think it's a waste of time.

Anyhuuuzzz.. I think my hip flexors and calves are not as tight. I ran 6.2km in 30 mins today. On the treadmill. So I guess that's cheating. But still... haven't ran for 2 weeks so it's not too bad right?

But I so disagree with those studies saying stretching doesn't improve performance or prevent injuries. My calves are not hurting :)

Choices

Choices...

Choices Choices Choices.... Having a hard time putting my top 5 choices for my final placement.

The options are pretty crap unless I go out rural.

I think if I want to make the most out of it and learn more, get heaps of experience, I should go rural. As in real rural, in those ulu towns, not Newcastle 'rural'.

But the comfort of home.... not needing to pay rent.... *sigh*

For my own good, really, I think I should go rural. I know it's gonna be super challenging, I know I'm gonna be worried like shit everyday because I'll get thrown in the deepest of deep ends.... but I will learn. Question is, do I want to step out of my comfort zone again?? I am comfortable going for another placement in cardio or neuro. But outpatients... I can't. I hate it, coz I suck. I could do just outpatients in the city but if I wanna challenge myself, why not take the ultimate? Rural + outpatients + ulu town + overweight bogans + heat....

Rent is really not a problem. $80/week accommodation with own computer, own room, free internet, a cleaner to clean every week..... it's is freaking cheap!!!!

But the travelling..... i don't think I will come back at all in that 5 weeks if I do go. It is like 6 hours train ride. Unless... I fly. But then money is a concern.

And the heat... ohhh it's gonna pretty hot come Oct & Nov.

It's Convenience + Comfort VS Experience.

*sigh* hate choices. And this really, is only the start of it. Gonna have to make even more choices after this.

Grow up Sher Mayne, grow up!! It's just another placement of 5 weeks. It's not even a job for goodness sake.

eeekssss.. need to talk to mummy.

From $10 to $4

From $10 to $4

The photocopy machine drama was so last week. I did something pretty bad to make up for it. Ahh.. I shall not tell just in case I get caught. Never know who's reading. Ask me if you're really that curious. It's not that bad but... I felt guilty after that. It's wrong but... They did it too! And I paid AUD 20k plus just for this semester man!!!! Sure a couple of bucks won't matter.

And on top of that, my $1 bus fare one way trip is now really 40 cents one way :) So instead of spending $10 a week, I spend $4 a week on my bus trips. Hehehe... more reason to catch the bus now. This one, it's not wrong. It's called.. finding loop holes and hope they don't notice :p

Now I'm no longer upset with the photocopy machine. Just won't do much photocopy anymore. Save the Trees. All these other things made me happy. The joy of saving a few bucks huh? Student life. That's what we do to survive. It's all about saving a few bucks here and there.

Sedikit-dikit, lama lama menjadi bukit. Ya?

I promise when I start working and earning money, I will be less scheming, ok?

Still can't believe it's back to reality

Still can't believe it's back to reality

The first week of uni have been pretty cruisy. Or maybe I'm just cruising along not knowing what's going on, still in holiday mode.

Came back Monday night and had no classes on Tuesday. Wednesday morning had 4 hours of lecture which I did not absorb a single thing. Waited for 3 hours to attend a 1.5 hour tutorial and nothing went in really.

Thursday morning I cooked a whole lot of bolognese sauce. I printed out the tutorial prep for my tutorial in the arvo but I just printed it. I did not read it or complete it. Tutorial PREP. That means to be done before a tutorial and I did not do it. Hah!!! Took me 1.5 hour to travel into uni to attend an hour tutorial, consist of watching little kids walking around and feeding themselves. Paediatric Physiotherapy. That's why. And then it was another 1.5 hour to travel home. Worth it? So not worth it. Wasted 6 bucks for travel.

Friday, no class. Stayed at home, watched Dear John again, went for a run. At night, went out for drinks with the course mates. I don't really enjoy going out for drinks because it means spending money. But I go because I haven't been going out for awhile and have been very anti-social during the last semester.

Saturday, I don't even remember what I did. Stayed at home, laze around and did nothing. In the evening, went for strapping job and nearly got into FEW accidents. They were playing at a different field and the coach got lost and frustrated because one of the girl was reading the map. He ran a red light that was RED for quite awhile and nearly hit into a car. He did a really sharp turn and was going in opposite direction of a ONE WAY road. He nearly hit a stationery car parked on a roadside because they were arguing. Ahhh!! Tension. I can't wait for this strapping job to be over really. Just three more weeks. 50 bucks is really not that worth it. Came home at almost 10, had my pasta again and watched Love Actually.

Sunday, today, I woke up and did nothing the whole day. Tried to complete my tutorial prep that I didn't do for last Thursday but failed. The mind still isn't there. Chatted, napped, cleaned, made dinner and watched Made of Honour. Been watching movies that I've watched before just because I have no new movies. I miss my Sundays back in Auckland where it will be happening. I miss Auckland. I miss the company. And it's not even a week. This sucks!!!

But it's back to reality. Somebody kick me.
