im forced to sign up for twitter just to churn out a 5 pg report on it =/
came across a quote in twitter that says "she comes off as stong, but maybe she fell asleep crying. she acts like nothing is wrong, but maybe she's just really good at lying"....i think that is so me. no worries, im not emo-ing =)
just that i guess this phrase pretty much speaks of the kind of person i am. when something unpleasant happens, i won't tell others. and i find myself tearing before i slp and waking up pretending nth had happened. until the unpleasant event is over and i have calmed myself down, would i let others know abt it. or maybe, i won't even say it at all.
anyway, met joyce in the late morning after my morning lecture! =) lunched, bought stuff and studied together before i headed back sch again for lessons. personality lecture was funny today because the lecturer was sharing with us some cultural differences when he was studying in canada.
my lecturer went to a restaurant and wanted to order something
waiter: u want super salad?
lecturer: (super salad? thats not in the menu but it sounds good) ok, 1 super salad!
waiter: super salad?
lecturer: yea, super salad.
waiter: i mean do you want SOUP or SALAD?!
funny right? =p
passerby A: do you have the time?
lecturer: yes, i have lots of time
passerby A: i mean do u have the time?
lecturer: uh huh, i have lots of free time
dont get it? the passerby A is actually asking for the time and my lecturer misunderstood him.
my eye candy is cute =p hahahhaha!! reminds me of my pokka days.
HAPPPPY BIRTHDAYYY RYLLL!! (i noe u will read my blog! u better be. )

sat
volunteer work with allena at east coast park in the morning =) i always feel happier doing volunteer work =) thumbs up! headed to starbucks at tanjong pagar to study, which was absolutely conducive to do work =) met my family for dinner after that. dinner was damn awkward because we were having dinner with my sis's fiance's family. hahah!! but eventually it turned out pretty fine i guess.
sun
met ryl for a run in the afternoon. believe it or not, we two ran at 12pm in the afternoon. best. hahaha!! it was a mini-adventure as we explored this forest look-alike place behind her house. hee! continued to run and started eyeing on landed property along the way. haha! and yes! i want to buy audi car in future! i think audi car looks good =)
ran back bathed, lunched and we studied! girls' talk always make me go into dilemma. ok, i was already in a dilemma just that ryl's perspective make me even more confused! but sometimes its not as easy as 1+1 kind of thing. im still a human eh, sometimes being rational may not necessarily be the ideal decision. and ryl and na have been bugging me to tell them what happened in dec two years back. sigh. if i could say, i would. but its not something glamourous to share about and im only begining to walk out of it. so ryl and na! dun say i unfriendly dont wan to share!
mon
prof was sharing with us a nus yr 4 student was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and she left only a year to live. damn. PEOPLE! PLEASE GO FOR HEALTH SCREENING! and halfway through the lecture his phone rang and he told us his patient in difficult labour. *admire, no im not admiring that his patient is in difficult labour but more so of his capability. aiya, don't know how to express. my fetish. haha! just a general statement, i think capable ppl always end up in a divorce or break up because they are not spending enough time with their other half. we cant seem to get the best of both world eh?

im dead tired. long day today. had therapy session in the morning, school in the afternoon and work at night =/ i seriously think im working more than im studying this semester. and im having an interview for my internship at WeeCare in the following week. hope i can get it. would be a good experience for me and maybe i can learn ways to handle my boy as well. much needed.
lectures in the afternoon was funny. the prof was talking abt andropause and how men are so affected because they cant get it up like before. how their refractory period is longer when they are older to the extent that sometimes it may takes days or months for it to have a response again. he started citing examples and he started laughing to himself. haha! funny prof. i kind of admire him actually. because i think he is very zai. he was telling us he was on plane when he had to attend to 1 passenger with ectopic pregnancy and another 1 with asthma. i think its damn cool. and that day he was showing us videos on the 5 different methods to deliver a baby. it was damn gross because the first video showed the doctor cutting the vagina because the cervix did not dilate enough and all the blood and fluid and whatever was everywhere =/ and the caesarean method was ermm..none the better. i didnt know the whole uterus can be flipped out of the female's abdomen for the doctor to clean it. like literally stuff his hand into the uterus to clean it =/ and my prof had done all methods before. and i was like 'wahhhh, cooool'...i think knowledgeable and capable guys make me go 'wahhh' =)
volunteer work yesterday was nice =) brought the special needs children out to have fun, and im sure they did =)
MPS is not ending =( why are there so many residents with so many issues to be resolved?

ah die. i think im becoming a woman of few words. i don't know what to blog nowadays eh. right, lets backtrack and see what i have done this week...
mon
sch as usual, lessons from 10am to 4pm followed by meeting till 6.30pm. headed to yew tee for 'meet the people' session which freakingly ended at near 12AM!!! i was zombified during work probably because i had a long day in sch. and the fact that it ended way so late didnt help much huh. but mr yeo was nice thou, he asked me to leave first knowing that i live so far. but i stayed on since i probably have to cab home anyway. doesnt make much a diff.
tue
sch as usual. had presentation on autism research proposal. was fine i hope, even though the prof did mention certain things that we have overlooked. but oh well, which proposal/presentation aint flawless. studied at compasspt lib and met jiaji for dinner and home!
wed
lesson at freaking 8am = waking up at 6.15am =/ i almost fell aslp during lecture especially when the prof talked abt physics bio and whatever. zzzzz. headed to starbucks after lec ended and studied. the starbucks guy was nice to let me redeem a grande caramel machiatto because by right, redemption is only meant for tall size. heh! and west coast plaza starbucks is super conducive for studying =) love. headed back sch for personality lecture and home!
thurs
skipped my reproductive health tutorial since attendance wasnt counted and that was my only 1 hr of lesson, so i declared free thursday for me! therapy session in the evening. i always feel abit worried when i go for session. i really wonder how the mom thinks abt me when im doing the therapy. does she thinks like im a lousy therapist who cant handle her boy or she thinks that im already trying my best? u know, sometimes when the mom sits in, i cant be myself. its like everything i do, i must make sure im doing it according to her way and that comprises of the way i speak to the boy, the way i carry out my task etc. and i did a wrong move man. i was asking the boy to do a twisting task to practise his fine motor skill and i thought it was fine for me to increase the level of difficulty by giving one of the token that is slightly harder to twist (the boy has already mastered this task), but i was wrong! he was doing well and twisting really hard to get the token in but i think he got irritated at the end of it. he tapped my hand and asked for help and he suddenly cried. as in, reallly cried at the top of his voice and he started being disruptive. AND THATS IT. i lost him for the next 1 hr. nth interest him after that and it was a hard time man.
fri
sch as usual. lessons from 8am to 4pm followed by therapy at 5.30pm. somehow, the boy was an angel today =D totally cooperative. i guess over the 5 therapy sessions, im starting to learn to handle him. i guess i was too task-focused and i overloaded him somehow. and i was trying all ways to build rapport with him every session because he doesnt play with me. or rather, he dont see the need to play. so i decided to take it easy this session and it turns out pretty fine! of course, the success of it very much depends on the boy's mood on that day too. and i realised he likes people to carry him and turn in circles so i did. its like every 15mins or so, i will carry him and turn in circles. and i make sure he drinks water (because he doesnt understand that he is thirsty, he just get irritated), like lots of it so he remains well hydrated and not be disruptive ( i hope), i make sure i gave him lots of break time (which means, giving him books or toys for sensory stimulation. he likes to flip books which is a form of stereotypical or repetitive behaviour commonly seen in children with autism), i make sure im using as few words as possible to convey my meaning to him because if he doesnt understand what im trying to say, he will switch off and it wouldnt be easy to get him back again. ok, too much things to take into consideration, i shall stop here. but on the whole, fri's session was the best so far.
sat
decided to head out to airport to study. which was a brilliant choice because it was productive. i seriously cant stay at home to study man. studied till 6, met jiaji for dinner and home.
sun
proven that i cant study at home.
ok, the end for this week! need to study for my personality test!
