quiz coming up again. and this time, we have biochem, embryology, pharmacology and microbiology to read up on.... interesting but tough...
so can't blog much since all i can think about is how cells in an embryo proliferate and become a full-fledged baby... and let me tell you this, appreciate your mother as much as you can man...the things she goes through to give birth to you is astounding. and how life happens inside your mother and how it grows from just a tiny cell and just knowing what to do to sustain itself is amazing. you just wonder how it can think and plan for the future with what little resources it has. to prepare itself with nutrients, it develops a yolk sac and then when the time comes to abandon the yolk sac, it already has a placenta in place to provide food... and so many more examples...
all i can say is that life is one big miracle...

genetics
this week was all about genetics and to conclude it, the lecturer invited a lady who was diagnosed with beta-thalassemia to come talk to us about her condition. it was a somber talk that a few meddies cried. i guess, being meds, we have always talk, breathe, eat even dream about diseases. we know the symptoms, we know the treatments or in certain sad cases, lack of treatments, we know about the side effects, we know about the deteriorating conditions.
but we seldom attach the whole humanity side to these illnesses.
we forget the suffering part, the hopelessness of it all, the emotions behind the disease, the human behind the diagnosis.
we forget that they have families who love them and would do anything for them.
we forget that they have friends that would miss their company and have an impact on their lives.
we forget that they are a part of communities that would suffer from the loss of them.'
we forget that they have emotions and thoughts and intelligence and personalities.
we forget that they too have souls.
and they are not mere perfect textbook examples of patients with health conditions.
*once upon a time, there lived a princess who love hugs...*

Cold-Inducing Coughs and experiments....
update: i am still croaking and this cough is so weird man... according to Kelvin and his crazy theories (this time minus the help of PJ), it is due to the cold weather and it wil last for at least one month and once i am cleared from this cough, i will get immunity and i will never get it again...
what i want to say is HELLO??!! that does not make sense at all man!!! does this mean that after this bout of coughing, i will NO LONGER cough in my whole entire life??!! that is just soooo crappy man... and he's supposed to be a medical student who is going to be a full-fledged doctor and is going to treat some poor patients in the near future... i shudder at that thought...LOL.... but we'll see whether his theory pans out then....
introducing Mel Test Subject No.1 in Kelvin's Experiment for Cold-Inducing Coughs....
*cough cough*
but it does make sense actually.. the whole business of the cough being cold-weather-induced as i only cough the hardest and most often during nightime and that's when the weather is super chilly...
oh well.. we shall see then, would-be-Dr-Kee....

week 8
i'm croaking due to my cough that lasted for one week and just recently got worse because of a stupid sore throat....
and i so want my pizza.... grrr.... *roar*
update: i have just gotten my vacuum cleaner and my slow cooker!! yay!! this is awesome man... now i get to vaccum my room anytime i want to and i can finaly cook my fave soups and broths!! it's the guranteed comfort food for the coming winter and the now-here autumn which is really freezing me into a Popsicle... besides, broths and soups are the easiest and cheapest to do... especially if you are surviving on a student's budget of time and money... just throw in carrots, celeries, meat, dried oysters and potatoes in the morn and voila! you get a nice comforting hot warm-feeling-in-tummy soup for lunch and sometimes, dinner! easy peasy... so thanks to kelvin who helped me carry back both of my brand new additions to my apartment... and my hands are not achng from your package of minced pork or chrysanthemum tea..LOL
announcement: i am friends with an international standard violinist by the way! rach, you go, girl! knock them dead in japan ya?? and make us all meddies proud of you!! you have finally broken the mold of meddies being boring nerds who have no talents except for mugging...LOL... and the musical last night rock... and for heaven's sake, please please please, i'm begging you to at least play ONE song for us!! pretty please with sugar and a cherry on top??
and so week 8 passed happening-ly (is there such a word?) with lectures on embryology, PBL tutorials on an old lady bowler who possibly suffered from heat stroke from being too active on the bowling field, another anatomy prac where we got to incise and sew cadevers up, an all-out shopping trip and a sore throat... *cough cough*

dissection and life...
Listening to: Keith Urban's Tonight I Wanna Cry (the perfect song for the gloomy Melbournian weather)
Reading: my PBS notes on visceral systems
Eating: nothing
Drinking: My favourite green tea (i can drink this forever)
wow, the 1st week back after Easter has been crazy!! so much to do, so many people to see, so many places to go, so little time!!
1st off, i had my 1st dissection class and boy, was it interesting! we got this cool surgical intern guy at RMH as our tutor and thank goodness! he was really good man. and he answered all our stupid, anooying questions with teh patience of a grandmother. and he is BUFF!! HUGE BICEPS AND TRICEPS!! and totally built!! geez, where does he get the time off to body build man??!! aren't surgical interns supposed to be the busiest of the lot??!! oh well, into the bodies then... so yes, i had my 1st exposure to a dead body!! yayness! and we got this old fat dude who died of complications of diabetes and i do mean COMPLICATIONS!! he had like gangrene (toes of both feet amputated), heart diseases (metal plates in his aorta) and liver problems (he had numerous operations at the abdomen area)... and his tummy was HUGE, probably due to alcohol and unhealthy diet... suddenly, looking at him and all his problems makes me determined that i will never ever let any of my close friends or family members ever end up like him, unhealthy and probably unhappy from all the health problems he has... so people, take care of yourself... coz the cadaver that I saw did not look pretty at all and he did suffer ALOT... really hits home that health is really more important than anything else...
but let's rewind abit... so when i first walked into the dissection lab, all i could see was rows and rows of cadavers covered by white clothes and the smell was unmistakably of embalming fluids and it was cold in there. so yes, i admit that i was kinda scared at that particular moment. but in like 5 minutes, as i stood there like phey yee and jacq and lun, it went away. it sort of felt that i was meant to be there and nothing can change that and the sooner that i got over the stupid irrational emotion, the better off i'll be.... but that's not to say that i did not feel the pang of pity and empathy i felt for the poor guy the moment they lifted the cover sheet. the feeling when i first looked into his face was undescribable. i will never ever forget the fleeting emotion. it's hard to describe.
a mixture of sadness, pity squeezing at my heart.... i think.... and probably a bit of disgust and fear... coz like i said before, death is never a pretty sight...
but the show had to go on... so we had a look at various X rays and then a severed lower limb with the thorax region....
after the dissection class, i was walking back with phey yee and we were talking about how we felt so much like medical students now once we had our 1st taste of cadavers and death and how human we were still going to be even after countless encounters with death and patients. coz after all, the human tough is what all doctors need, in my opinion, to be a healer and carer of the sick. knowledge and information is good, but definitely not enough to make your patient feel like they can put their lives in your hands. coz that's what you have in your hands. the lives of a thousand people....
and then, there's an exam next monday to test my knowledge so far and i'm still not feeling particularly confident about it so now back to mugging and studying about visceral systems...

2. not being quite the baby of medical school anymore.... after all, i've been there for 6 weeks....
3. being 19!! when i start sch, i'll be 19!! which isn't much to me... not as much as 18 though...
4. just being in lectures and PBL tutorials.... talking about injured spinal cords and penises taht erect for four hours straight due to spinal cord injury (it's called priapism!! what a cool word man...) the things you learn in group study is oh-so-useful man... *grinz
5. having lunch near the toilets (rachel, we need a change of environment man...) in Union House (Rachel, we need a change of lunching places man....)
6. hanging out in the library for our next class to start... doing absolutely nothing.....
7. waking up to 8am lectures and stumbling to thetres with half-awake eyes and barely-there consciousness....

Easter revelation
it's Easter break now and Melbournites sure are making a HUGE deal out of it, what with the pounds-heavy choc eggs and choc bunnies... and Koko Black's window display look absolutely delicious, literally and metaphorically....
and Easter break means that i have succeeded in going through the first half of Semester 1 and it's one long awaited break... i could go on and on moaning about the ever increasing workload and information that my poor brain needs to process but I WILL NOT... after all, i did choose this course out of interest and heck, it IS interesting...
"Keep interested in your career, however humble; it is a changing fortune in the changing fortunes of time...." - Desiderata...
(for those who have not read Desiderata, it is the most incredible guide to life ever.... so get your copy now... my dad was the one who read it to me when i was young and i will be forever grateful to him for it.)
so yes, Easter break is only ONE WEEK so Mel's Must Do List for Easter stands thus:
1. Finish the Health Practice essay by Tues
2. Revise the whole of Anatomy and Histology lectures, despite the fact that Dr Eizenberg is a lousy lecturer except for the times he took off his layers of shirts to entertain us
3. Do my videotape interview and review it!! and get over the fact that i might look 10 pounds heavier on camera.
4. do more exercise
5. cook more exotic and complicated dishes
6. time for some SELF LOVE and SELF CARE!! eg yoga, catching up with friends....
7. prepare myself mentally for the dissection sessions we are having after Easter and pray that i dissolve into jelly the moment they lift the sheet covering the cadaver
8. SELF LOVE AND SELF CARE!! i write this twice as Term 1 was absolutely killing for anyone mentally and emotionally and physically.... i need back my streak of life.... it was slowly but surely ebbing away...
9. REFLECTION: on the days that have passed and the days that are and the days that have yet to come.... and just sit and think of anything that comes to mind...
- no more stories for Mel , just work and work -

the realization that I'm going to be a doctor in a few years' time hits me everyday with a well-aimed punch to the gut... and takes the air out of my lungs....
this means more responsibility to be the best person i can ever be...
more effort on my part to cram all sort of info into my brain...
more conscientious work to try rid myself of my weaknesses...
phew....
this means more responsibility to be the best person i can ever be...
more effort on my part to cram all sort of info into my brain...

phew....
Heaven Knows...
and i heard this song and it brings everything back.... it's ironic how this turns out to be...
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find a way
But only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
Coz heaven knows
But tell me where do I start
Coz it's breaking my heart
Don't wanna let her go
All the time I act so brave
I'm shaking inside
Why does it hurt me so
Maybe my love will come back someday
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find a way
But only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
Coz heaven knows
But tell me where do I start
Coz it's breaking my heart
Don't wanna let her go
All the time I act so brave
I'm shaking inside
Why does it hurt me so

2nd day of class
i'm still amazed by the fact that my timetable has really huge empty blocks without lectures or tutorials. one would think that i'll be busy as hell... but i think they want us to do more self study instead of just swallowing everything that give you... it's all our own hard work i guess....
anyways, had my first health practice lecture today. it was all about communication and listening skills. without decent communication skills, doctors are screwed. and we have to be mind readers, tone readers, facial expression readers, vocab readers. basically, the moment a patient walks into the room, we are already diagnosing, analysing his or her life already. as if cramming thousands of medical jargon in our heads are not enough, let's add questioning skills, listening skills, prompting skills and mind reading.
but hey, that's one of the reason why i chose to be a doctor.
it's hard not to think about it,
and it's harder even not to look,
but you can't help but steal glances,
it's that addictive.
it's that fulfilling.
it's that intriguing.
it's that painful.

1st day of the rest of my 6 year course
i've spent one year and probably a bit more searching...
i never had the guts to go after it....
and now he's right under my nose...
and i can't do anything now...
the moment i heard him say, "i'll be there in 5 minutes..."...
the first day of uni, into my medical course started on a painful note... i had to get my blood sample taken along with the tuberculin skin test to see whether i have TB...
and now, i'm already at my desk doing revision of the 1st day lectures... boy, am i becoming a geek!!

I have almost forgotten how much fun it was to hangout with the gang ever since i went to Melb.
and just that day, they reminded me again how much i miss and love them...
*insert mushy music here*
i had a blast as usual and it ole good clean fun...LOL
i met david and nee and john for lunch at Kimgary's at CS and after annoying the "androgynous" waiter with our orders, we yaklked it up and then took a lot of pics... and i took the ooprtunity to grill xin nee about her "boy boy" and then the guys (surprisingly!!) make a case for feminism and guys buying undies for their girlfriends. you have to be there to appreciate the debate... *smirks*
then we met up with aichen, juli and yiyu adn again, had an extra loud gab session. it was hilarious seeing how ai chen and juli evaded john's prying handphone-cum-video recorder for the day...aww, girls give him just one smile for the camera mah...
anyways, after having yoghurt (it was super yums!! and my fave stall) and glueing our butts to teh chairs for one hour and just gossiping up a storm, we adjourned to this Korean restaurant by Stulang Laut (somehow, we always managed to end up in a Korean restaurant for meals every time we go out. I think it's due to ju li and treacia's manic korean craze...) and the place was niiiiice......
bi bim bop... i think it's spelt this way... it's like mixed rice with egg, veggies and meat...uber yummy!!
the korean grill that we had....swoon....
with friends like these, there's nothing else you need....

CSI MANIA!!
have been watching tons of DVDs these few days and it was really rewarding after months of starving myself from movies in Melb (a freaking student price movie ticket is like a whole $10 which si like RM 30!! grrrr and not to mention the TV in Albert House is not exactly on good terms with me...always giving me the static signal...darn annoying lah!!)
so watching CSI: NY season 2 and 3 was SUCH a treat for me!! i was liek jumping up and down on the sofa, waiting for the DVD player to whirl to life!! i know kinda pathetic seeing as CSI is a movie about dead people and their untimely gruesome demise..not to mention the episodes of grred and jealousy and all the negative human elements come into dramatic play...
but the CSIs in the series are really cool people man... makes you wanna join the ranks of those investgators...how they strut around in perfectly-cut linen suits (for the ladies) and cool black outfits (for the men) in this really cool cavern of a CSI lab, how they can stare unflinchingly at a possible suspect and make them spill their guts, how they use their talents and brains to figure out the crime and delve into a murderer's mind... swooons....
and not to mention, the cool scenes where the camera goes in depth into a wound and lets you see the broken arteries or fractures... and the reconstruction of a crime is always awesome....
oh and i think gary sinise is by far the best head honcho in the CSI franchise EVER!! and i'm rooting for lindsay and danny to get together!! and i do not like the new coroner, that posh (but in my opinion, she's just stuck up) british lady...
CSI: NY is soooo much better with the addition of anna belknap as lindsay monroe nowadays!!

2007
drumroll... and 2007 is here!!
and here comes the obligatory resolutions that comes with a new year....
i will enjoy my first year in MBBS, to learn as best as i can so i will be on the right path to becoming a capable doctor so that in years to come i can finally go to Africa as i have dreamt of for so long and put my skills to good use....
i will respect myself more and be less self destructive...(no, i'm not in a gang, nor do i take drugs....) but be able to say no when i feel like it, taking care of my own self emotional well being, be less straddled by mundane things or people.....
i will take care of myself... coz no one can do that for me, only i can do it....
and so c'est la vie....

christmas revelation
1 year have yield such an outcome... i have been officially accepted into medicine in Melb Uni which is like my dream for this year....
should been feeling ecstatic and all... and yes i do feel that. but still there is a tinge of disappointment as many of my friends did not get the course that they want. and well, frankly, it is sort of depressing. it's like if i get in, i hope my friends get the course they want to. after all, who would wish their friends fail miserably in their courses....
still, for the next 6 years, i will be happy... really happy doing something that i have dreamt of for years... 6 years of hardwork will be worth it....
and thus this brings me to my christmas wishlist of the year:
1) enough money to build a hospital specially equipped to treat AIDS patients in Africa and enough AIDA medications for the nation
2) a pair of overalls (yes, i really want one as my old comfy one has been give away)
3) lifelong 50% discount for Borders, Kinokuniya and MPH (i don't ask for much...)
4) an iPod engraved with the words "Veni, vidi, vici"
5) a PSP player (yes, i DO love games)
6)flood victims in Johor will get sufficient help and funds to rebuild their homes
7) a cure for both cancer and AIDS
8) an end to ALL wars
9) a crate of cherries
10) a pair of ballet flats (have been searching for the perfect ones for ages)
it is one mix-and-match list for this year and i DO hope that i will get every single one of it... LOL

albert house 2006
darn it...
how many times must i tell myself that since i'm staying in JB, i can see the singaporean gals anytime i want??!! it's just across the causeway right??
but what about the KL people and that terengganu boy??!!
sigh....
albert house 2006 ended yesterday....
am still in my room no doubt sitting in front of the laptop but now... i strain to hear noises from the tea room (during exams, it used to drive me nuts) and when i come down the stairs, it's like silent, no slamming fire doors, no clatter down the stairs in flip flops... even the usually noisy laundry room is dead silent...
will miss the albert house people lots....
we had fun, didn't we??

Queen Vic Market Shopping Trip
had the bestest time in Queen Victoria Market today!! it was so much fun..
what can be THAT nice about grocery shopping?? well, for starters, you need to go to a super bustling, super happening place like Queen Vic to get the goods. and when i say goods, i do mean literally anything under the sun... yes, even clothes and sour sticks (yes, me and yi yu saw these super long sour sticks that you can chew on for ages till it melts in your mouth)....
but most of all, i love the organic section for fruits and veggies. for organic stuff, the price range is really cheap man, considering that it's the freshest and least harmful of all foods.... and not to mention ,the gourmet ready made food section that has Greek dips, German bratwrust, marinated baby octopus, exotic coffees, never-before-heard sausages and bread rolls..... it's like a foodie heaven man..... it's been a long time since i last went there and boy did i miss it!!
so my Safeway green Eco friendly shopping bag contained these when i came back:
1) 5 nectarines (they are so darn cheap...)
2) 4 peaches (again, darn cheap too)
3) 1kg of cherries (again, half the normal price and they are sooooo sweeeet *happy sigh*)
4) 2 boxes of blueberries (a good source of antioxidants)
5) 2 Don Viennese frankfurt (it looks tempting in the window display and it's cheap)
6) 1 chicken oregano long sausage (again, it looks tempting)
7) 1 slice of baked cheesecake for Janice (it's her Econs exam tomorrow so a little encouragement for her as i know she LOVES cheesecake) and it's rumored to be the best cheesecake in Melb (that's what the display said anyway)
8) a small container of baby octopus (this is for Shaleen...she can't get enough of the octopus entree we had at Stalactites that day) from the greek gourmet food section....
for me, it's just fruits, fruits and more fruits for me... yums... can't wait to start on my nectarines.....

a mixed basket of life...
oh heck, it's the end of the 1st and worst week of exams and boy am i G-L-A-D!!
yep, it's 4 subjects down and 1 more to go and that one more is only on 4 Dec... yay...
still it's freaking bio so memorisation is the key to score and Mel so does not like to memorise. she does better by understanding stuff... wonder why i took up the subject in the first place. probably because i THOUGHT it might give me a headstart on my probable career in medicine and not to mention, i THOUGHT it was so darn easy to score....shucks... i GUESSED wrong then....
anyways, to celebrate the end of chem finals today, we had a sort of impromptu girls shopping trip to Safeway.... yeah yeah yeah, it's only the local supermarket, not some super huge departmental store.. but hey, i haven't see the outisde sunlight in such a long time and can barely remember what it looks like... it's like *open door, blink, blink, blink* "wah, outside look like that one arh??"... okay, i'm exagerrating, but exams can do that to you man... sreiously... long term effects....
and since i'm taking a break from bio revision, shall just put up wacky pictures of the shopping trip where i only bought one HUGE bar of Cadbury Black Forest Choc (my favourite, my only obsession i will NEVER give up), some Lindor Thin Milk Chocs and Who magazine with Tom Cruise and Katie's wedding as the front cover... her reception dress looks so prettyful, designed by Armani and hand made with thousands of Swavaroski crystals... check it out man... absolutely classy and stunning.... still i'm wondering whether Suri, their little baby daughter (some weird name i must say, named after the African sun or something like that) is REALLY the offspring of Tom and Katie. sure, she resembles Katie but definitely NOT Tom.... i smell something scandalous here..... oh well.... celebs and the goss about them.... hmmm... entertaining...
me and qiqi both in our white white white pure white hoodies...
our other two shopping partners, yi yu and shaleen along Drummond St where we live...
qiqi in her "hmmm...." mood.... she was so darn happy today after chem exam was over... i was too....
and courtesy of qiqi , who actually demanded me to take this stupid, pathetic picture of the christmas tree in QV... it's quite pitiful compared to the HUGE on standing just on Swanston Street, around Collins Street.. qiqi was exclaiming all the way about how pretty it was and stuff... but qi arh, ic an find better ones for you rather than waste my MB on this pathetic tree man...
anyways, tomorrow, shaleen promised that we will go out to eat dinner!!! yay,.... finally, after two weekends of take away food..... this girl will go crazy at the sight of Toto's pasta or pizza....shall consult my Foodies' Guide To Melbourne tonight and look for any Japanese restaurants as requested by Shaleen.... that book is seriously good man....
and can't wait for tomorrow when i can go to Queen Vic Market to get my cherries, peaches and nectarines. this will be my second last week to taste such nice fruits man.... after that two weeks, i'm flying home where peaches, nectarines and cherries are bloody expensive... must stuff my face tomorrow. just taht night, shafiq bought some cherries from St Kilda, the local ones and jin sern gave me some. you could see my whole face lit up the moment the cherry MELTED in my mouth. it was so sinfully sweet man and oh-so-refreshing. you can literally see me swoon man. it's that amazing. alright, at least it is to me... as i LOVE my fruits....esp the above three. during the beginning of the year, i bought nectarines and peaches by the armloads. it was in season and so dirt cheeeap. now it's back in season so *goes off dreaming into the distance*...... *happy sigh*

of othello and pictures...
rhetoric is divided into 3 types, mainly logos, pathos and ethos. the first one appeals to the logical and reasoning side of humans, the second is the appeal to the emotional state while the last is an appeal to the character and credibility.
now that is what i learnt from Eng Lit... didn't know the powers of persuasion is so complex. oh well, now i know how to get my way around things because different people need different rhetoric techniques to convince them of something. like say a military figure like our dear Othello can be manipulated using both logos and pathos at the same time....
ok, enough of Othello... shall just post pictures instead.....
me, janice and shaleen at our annual class picture day.... love these two girls... they are the two closest friends i have in melb....
the girls from Albert House. it's like one big family portrait man....
more pictures of the girls....
chris, qi and me....
tiana and me!! she along qiqi has tonnes of earrings man.....and they are both trying to convert me into wearing dangling chandeliar earrings which i absolutely detest!!!
me and shaleen in colour coordinated black and white outfits for the day....

now or never...
oh well, am in the Leeper library now checking my email and stuff and yes, also waiting for my turn during drama exams... argh, am still darn pissed that my group is the second last to perform in the whole freaking Trinity College!!!darn it.... i hate being last man... it's like you see so many other performances and let me tell you that they are so darn good man!! it's making me feel so inferior and it's not doing much for my stress level!! i'm supposed to cry in the drama and seeing other people cry so effortlessly in their scenes is so not fun lah!!!
but heck, shouldn't be complaining coz my group is really good and they are tons of fun... and not to mention, drama itself is fun... you get to be someone else for a change and for once in your whole life, you get to live the experience of being watched... it's like the spotlight is on you for once in your life and i do mean it literally... and when you get up there, you feel gazes on you and when you hit the right spot with the right lines and right emotions, you feel the collective suck in their breaths, waiting for the next action....i guess it's the desired effect every actor on stage wants.... it's like we live for the moment, like we are living for the 8 minutes and then, it's over and there's nothing you can do about it....
but for me, the moment i'm on stage is like i get an adrenaline high... yes, i do get the jitters and i can see my hand shaking... but heck, you take a risk and put all your feelings out there and you know that you will be fine....
all i can say is that i'm thankful for my drama group coz without tze, nick, sujana and tiok nee, drama wouldn't be THAT fun...
so cheers to you, guys....
it's now or never....
