"Dreams are simply reality waiting to happen."
I came across this very well said quote.
This caught me off guard, and made me think for a moment.
I kept myself so busy with reality for the longest time that I forgot about my dreams.
I can't even remember what my dream was, or whether I ever had one.
Which is pretty sad coming to think of it.
I shall try to dream big from now, cos apparently dreams will come true.
Well, as long as we work hard for it - there's no easy way out.
What's your dream? =)

Student life thus far... =)
A random note: today is the 3rd day of Autumn!
3 months of summer break had been great, but I was getting bored of doing nothing.
It's my final year in uni, and luckily the timetable is less hectic than I imagined.
All we've been having were clinics after clinics, no classes or lab sessions.
I kinda miss those though, and like sitting in the lecture hall as a class.
Oh well, I guess they're just prepping us for the near future when we start work.
Cos it'll just be a handful of colleagues around us and lots of patients
I just hope that everything will go well for me this year, like really.
There seems to be so many things to accomplish.
Other than compulsory school work to complete, I want to travel.
But travelling isn't cheap and money seem to just flow out like a river.
I also want to meet and make new friends.
People who are outside of my circle, my comfort zone.
Sometimes I find it easier to mix around when I am alone.
I don't have to accommodate with my current friends' interests, but just go all out.
I think I should start with making friends with all of my classmates.
Not just random "Hi and Bye" but to actually have a proper conversation with them.
Maybe I should put that on my checklist for "Things to do Before I Graduate"? =P
Hopefully all the events that we plan to be part of, just because it's our final year,
will be a beautiful memory. Cos we will definitely miss uni life!
First event of the year - Dent Day Out! with some of my classmates =)
Tata for now.

Medicine or Dentistry?
Sometimes I just get bored of studying for exams.
It feels like reading and re-reading the notes... say what - again?!
All I hope is for the information to stay! reallyyy.
and pray that they appear in a jiffy when I need them. =)
I've stumbled upon a forum with dentists and doctors as members.
Healthcare professionals are definitely in a whole different level
compare to any Tom, Dick and Harry in other forums!
They don't put each other down (except certain douchebags),
but instead justify their thoughts - both pros and cons.
The question was posted by a person in a crossroad:
"Medicine or Dentistry?"
The best comment I've read was:
"The fun part of Medicine is in the diagnosis,
treatment is often simply following a protocol developed by others.
In the Dentistry, the easy part is usually the diagnosis,
and the fun part comes in developing and carrying out a treatment plan.
To grossly simplify: Medicine is for thinkers, Dentistry is for doers".
I was never in that crossroad but those were very wise words indeed.
I am definitely a doer, glad I made the right choice!
And I am loving it so far!!
Ok, maybe except during the exam period. =P

How I miss...
Just looking through my lil bro's photo album on FB, my tears started rolling.
The photos were all from cousin Lee's wedding two weekends back.
For a dear cousin who's wedding I've always wanted to attend since forever?
I've only managed to be there virtually via Skype.
Seeing those photos one after another, I miss my family more than ever!
I haven't felt homesick for months since I arrived, I thought I've adapted.
But today, my first stream of tears (of missing home) came along.
Mummy I miss most, followed by Daddy then Haw and Shyang.
Maybe it was the relief from Long Case Exam?
Or the stress for upcoming OSCE?
Or the Perio assignment due?
Or the last written finals in my uni life?
Or the heartwarming chats with my loved ones?
Whatever the reason, I am actually counting the days to home sweet home!

Spring!!!
My very first encounter during Spring was last year.
It was more often wet and rainy than it is filled with sunshine.
My less than sturdy umbrella (bought urgently in Tokyo) barely survived the wind!
So of all the seasons I've experienced here, Spring lies in the bottom of my list.
The weather here is nowhere near those seen in Hollywood movies. Haha
It's nearly 2 weeks into Spring this year, there were more sunshine.
And I thought "Heyyy, the weather is not too bad! Sunny and the warm breeze" =)
So we headed out for some picture-perfect moments last Saturday.
We ain't gonna miss another year of cherry blossoms!
Cos we were a week late last year, and most of them were already on the ground.
Pretty view outside the University Clock Tower =)
3 days later which is today - Tuesday, it hailed throughout the day!
We were experiencing 4 seasons a day, it hailed then sun's out then hailed again.
The best part of the story? We had a nice and warm winter the past 3 months.
Probably about 5-10°C on average? There was no snow at all, unlike last year.
But the ground was all white today, and it's still hailing right up to now!
Right outside our courtyard in Spring! The ground is whiter now. @.@
It still amazes me how the weather here takes a 360° turn so quickly.
Mother nature is so unpredictable especially at this end of the world!
A very reliable source of weather update states:
"1.8°C but feels like -1°C" outside at the moment.
Who knew one could actually be frozen in Spring?
Hope the sunshine would return very soon!
I can't afford any cancellations from my patients~ *fingers crossed*

Plastic Princes ♥
drama fever has came back to me during the holidays!
i haven't been keeping myself up-to-date, being a bit picky lately. haha
but after watching one drama after another, i can't help but to drool over these pretty boys!
yes, i am actually blogging about this after nearly half a year of absence!
call me shallow, simple-minded, superficial or whatever. i do not care. =P
i shall call them Plastic Princes, not au naturale.
their God-given natural looks were good to begin with.
further enhancements done under the knife made them aesthetically pleasing!
i've short-listed a few of my favourite Plastic Princes in no particular order.
sit back, relax and be blown away~ =D
Jung Il Woo
first saw him in My Fair Lady, didn't really noticed him then.
my love for him escalated in 49 Days and The Moon That Embraces The Sun!
he was just so-so in Flower Boy Ramyun Shop tho.
he's acting was really good, can't wait to see more of him!
Lee Min Ho
everybody knew him from Boys Over Flower, so did i.
i didn't really fancy him then cos of his ridiculously curly hair.
liked him slightly better in Personal Taste despite the storyline.
City Hunter was like the major culprit, he was cool as!
i recently found out he's been best buddies with Jung Il Woo and Kim Bum.
Kim Hyun Joong
he was definitely my favourite F4 member in Boys Over Flowers,
even more so after he cut his hair short! *heart melts*
move on to Playful Kiss where he was the main male lead.
only realized he was from SS501 after a while,
i even took picture with a life-size cardboard picture of him in The Faceshop!
No Min Woo
my heartbeat got really fast when i first saw him in My Girlfriend is a Gumiho!
hands down won me over Lee Seung Gi *sorry die-hard fans*
he's beauty was even more than Shin Min Ah at times, really.
still contemplating whether i should give Midas and Full House 2 a try?
he's acting was superb in Rock! Rock! Rock! too.
i am not exactly the rocker girl, but i survived the entire drama. =)
so there goes my list of favourite Plastic Princes.
they are just eye candies to release me from the hectic reality.
a bit far fetched but at least they make me happy! haha
for me, guys like them are only to look, never to own. don't you think so? =P

peek-a-boo! *waves*
Hi guys (if there's any of you who still drops by) !!! =)
I've practically ignored this blog for nearly 2 years~
Can you imagine how time flies?
It's just feels good to pop back here for a bit for some random thoughts!
Blogging used to be a lot of people's everyday routine, mine included.
Yes, I used to spend an hour at least right here! =P
Typing a blog post about what happened, pictures with descriptions,
trying to improve my command of English and the way I express myself.
And then spend another hour at least reading blog after blog.
But this trend seems to have died down, since the introduction of Facebook!
Most of my friends aren't even blogging anymore.
Or may be I've haven't been blog-hopping for ages?
Now all we need to do is post up albums and albums of pictures,
occasional status updates, stalking friends of friends of friends etc.
Life was practically summarized there. Easy peasy!!!
My last post was about Wu Chun, or Chun as I like to call him.
As crazy as I was over him, somehow the fangirl has cooled down.
I did not go to last his fan meeting when he was in town though I had nothing on,
and I haven't watched his latest movie "Magic To Win" aired since 3 weeks ago.
I've only been to his blog and forum once every few months.
How terrible can I be huh? *Chillies throwing daggers at me*
Do I still like him? Yeah.
But I somehow have lost touch with the fondness of him.
I blame the busy schedule of Dentistry.
Okay, maybe not cos I am pretty much still hanging on to Hallyu! =D
Maybe I've grown up? Who knows.
People do change, I did (may be a little).
I used to take pictures every little thing that we do in uni.
I always have my camera with me - up till now.
That new lab project that we are up to, the new equipment in clinic,
the new stuff that we are learning and what not.
But since we started treating patients, that has sort of fell apart too!
Patient confidentiality, infection control, professionalism etc.
I really hope I still can remember them as I get older and busier. Really.
Right now, I really miss going for classes and studying for exams.
All the hurdles we went through together was worth it.
If only we could rewind and go back to those days again.
Nearly 6 months after IMU Dentistry days, I have been missing it dearly.
My new school has been great! Still learning to love it though.
But trust me when I say no university experience will be the same as IMU.
No more weekly activities at the atrium, no more freebies every now and then,
no more crazy orientations where senior-junior bonds were formed,
no more IMU Cup where all batches come together.
no more lecturers who you could talk to and laugh with just like a friend,
no more hectic 8-6 timetable and clashes of lecture rooms with another batch,
no more small classes where everybody knows and talks to everybody.
All these are now just memories somewhere deep deep inside.
May we be close knitted as long as we can despite being scattered in the future.
I miss us DT1/09. The best batch ever!
p/s: MEDT1/09 (the combination of medical and dental students) comes next. lol
♥ always

Wu Chun came to KL!!!
hey people~ i am back!!! =)
a week ago was "14 Blades" movie promo in KL..
it was a memorable Sunday, 7 February 2010~
i drove all the way to Pavillion, just to see him!
with the guidance of Yun Xin of cos.. hehe..
it was my very first drive in KL itself..
usually i am around the PJ area, so it's an accomplishment!
i never liked KL roads, always jam and usually one way streets..
but Chun has gave me the courage to do so.. =P
since we arrived way earlier than the scheduled 3pm..
we had pancakes and waffles for lunch.. pretty filling!
Xin with her food.. =)
a pic with my partner in crime for Wu Chun related events~
the stage.. directly opposite the famed Pavillion staircase..
Chun's van finally arrived after like 40 minutes of waiting!
director Daniel Lee, Chun and emcee Royce
closer view but blurred.. Chun seemed slimmer than last time?
constant interaction with lucky fans..
it was insanely packed that day.. just imagine 4 floors of this!
Chun says "Gong Xi! Gong Xi!"the bestest part of the day (mind my English)..
was when Chun waved at Xin and myself! =DDD
he was looking, smiling and waving directly at us..
it was definitely a mesmerizing moment to remember! ♥♥♥
no picture or video cos i was too busy smiling and waving back!
no, i am not exaggerating..
we were at the side of the stage and mostly were adults around us..
like as in uncle aunties or those with kids..
and everyone was holding a camera, snapping or videoing away..
so was i, but Xin was waving to get his attention for at least 2 mins!
then when he finally turned towards our side of the stage,
we waved together, only the both of us..
as others were still busy with their camera..
Chun totally waved back at us lor!!! *hyper hyper hyper*
the rest they say were history.. ok, not exactly..
check out my video for the rest of the details!
Xin said Chun waved at her again when he entered his van..
cos she was standing next to his van at first,
while i was standing along the line, waiting to film him exiting!
but Xin was pushed right to the back of the van by fanatic Chillies..
yes, they hogged the sides of the van while screaming..
no one except her, was behind the van.. *didn't call me*
out of the blue, he looked back after entering his van..
Xin waved at him and obviously he waved back!
lucky her~ i call it her very first birthday gift from a celebrity! =P
anyway, just to end this post with a short video..
my very first time editing a video too.. haha.. enjoy!
oh, Happy Chinese New Year to all! =)
p/s: Chun blogged today too~ check it out here! weee~
