post exams

|@ Cartel. I love their free-flow bread!|Post exam relac-one-corner-like kinda fun, just like everything in life (see the "one more day!" post), sadly will be over before i know it too. Time to turn on engine to chiong for pros. It's scary how JJ's [considering how pro he is] msn nick has to spell it out. Pros coming soon
Anyway, post exams' been quite fun. Watching final destination reminded me how much i like appreciating a movie for its plot, especially how it challenges my ability to predict what happens next. Most pple will think i have this liking for gore, especially after i tell them how i find Saw and fd not bad. There's really a lot beyond the gore. i think the plot for saw is triple thumbs-up and u have to watch it urself to understand [watch 1 then 2 pls] and as for fd, i think it takes a lot to encourage viewers to watch their sequels despite knowing what the story is going to be abt. I thought their effort this time to incorporate the photos as a clue was not bad, though not original cos i think it's from The Omen I enjoyed it nevertheless considering how much effort the pple put into designing how death comes back to haunt those who escaped death. Wonder if there'll be fd4.
|Banana leaf| We treated our anatomy tutor prof KK tan to lunch at little india which is like a stone throw distance from his office. The fish head curry is very nicee! The whole experience at banana leaf was just wonderful and we almost ate with our bare hands which would have made the whole experience all the more more indian:) Being taught by this very dedicated prof taught me sth. Sometimes i feel that medical students should see beyond medical school. Clinical tutors like this prof brings out the clinical relevance to what we learn and it's going to be very helpful in future. Though he might not be as exams orientated as some other profs, i really appreciate him for the effort he puts into preparing presentations for our tutorials despite his busy schedule! Now, how many equivalents of him are out teaching because it's his passion?
Of all the things i've done for the past few days, the most rewarding has to be catching up with friends and loved ones. I havent seen my granny and i miss her cooking! really looking fwd to tmr's dinner :)
Pple i'm glad i talked to are: wei, christabelle (jiayou for german!), colin, weeping, nicholas (happy commisioning!), angel, yijing, wenyang etc. Just one night made up a lot for my huge hiatus.
gosh i started typing this at 9+ and it's almost 1. says a lot abt how long i've been on msn.
