Away

I will be away for a short trip to Bangkok with my lifegivers. I have planned out my schedule for the rest of this year and half of the next, and I do not like what I see. I hope that the shopping and Krispy Kreme in Bangkok will perk me up, and make me feel better about what is to come!

On a side note, in the next week that I will not be seeing you, my dear man, I will be missing you awfully, badly, desperately, drastically, dreadfully, exceedingly, extremely, greatly, horribly, intensely, mind-blowingly, overwhelmingly, staggeringly, terribly, tremendously and unbelievably so.

Gratitude

Yesterday was the last day of CE 2C for my cohort. This placement was nothing short of amazing for me. I have learned a lot, and I am really glad that I have survived it unscathed! There is also the indescribable sense of achievement when the manager of the Physiotherapy department in the hospital gives you an 8.5/10 for your presentation! Not forgetting to mention how willing my supervisors were with sharing their knowledge with us.

I do not do well with prolonged feelings of tedium, but I must say that I do not regret the 5-hour sleep per day in these 5 weeks.

Ended my last day of Year 2 Semester 2 in NYP by visiting the gym with N and I am prepared for some very sensational muscle aches in the next few days. In fact, I can feel the effects on my shoulder already. Regardless, I am glad that my 1RM on the leg press machine have stayed at 300lbs. My supervisors have trained me well :)

Sugar

Thank you, my beloved man, for taking a cab down to my place in the middle of the night to give me a 5-minute hug and quite a few kisses on my pouty lips when the night of the last Monday of clinicals did not feel as good as how I had expected it to be. Thank you for taking the extra mile to put my demons to rest.

Pumpkin

Today, my man is sick. So I made him my usual comfort food - pumpkin porridge. Instead of the usual shit that I put my body through, I added green beans and stevia and left the oats out. Seeing his smile after taking the first spoonful warmed my heart, and I knew that I did not sweat in the kitchen for nothing!

I love you, my Mr Chng Kah Hui :)

Hpy

Happy 21st birthday, hpy! It has been 8 years since I first met you, and I can still remember how it was like sitting behind you in our lower secondary school days. Me kicking your chair just to annoy you, you and your epic dorkiness, me and my drama in school...everything. Thank you for being there throughout all these years, keeping me sane through all the negativity and for knowing what matters. You know that I've got your back in everything.
