Sydanee!

Am back in sunny Sydney!!
Man, it feels soooooooooo great to get the camden rotation out of the way.. and I passed everything!!

Spent the whole day cleaning and refurnishing my room in St Mike's. Man I feel tired.. still haven't recover from staying up late the night before the exams.

Can't bum around too much yet.. still have a case report due on midnight tomorrow. I better get to it soon!

Kena tag from KLo.. I have to agree the first part is a hard one as well, and it took me a while to think and write the 6 things down..

6 Weird Things About Me.

1. I can put my two legs over (behind) my head without much effort (using my hands to pull them). Maybe cos im too hunched...argh! need to stand up straight!

2. I have this habit of "playing/caressing" the hems of my pillow. Big time addictive habit..

3. I think I have sleep apnoea.. I wake up subconsciously/consciously sometimes throughout the night and sometimes sleep in a funny position (froggy style).

4. This ties in with the sleep apnoea as well, I feel sleepy nearly every afternoon.. no matter how much sleep I get the night before. So afternoon studying is very hard for me..

5. If I have continuous net connection, I check my email very very frequently. Sometimes more than twice in an hour KLO! :)

6. I can't drink coffee on an empty stomach.. upsets and "flatulates" my tummy! :P

Now lumber 2..

The rules:
1. Add a direct link to your post below the name of the person who tagged you.
Include the state and country you’re in.
Lomantik (Sydney, Australia).

2. List out your top 5 favorite places to eat at your location.
In no particular order... I somehow feel that these 5 places do not reflect the good food in Sydney that well, but these are the places I visit the most.

a) Sydney fish markets - my favourite food is seafood.. go figure
b) Taste in newtown - crazy chicken caesar salad! I'll need to try their other stuff too..
c) Faheem's fast food in enmore - double thumbs up tandoori chicken! I need to try this new indian place in newtown as well.. apparently the restaurant is opened by malaysians.
d)Shalom/Ayam goreng 99. or any nice indonesian restaurants.
e) Michitaro - bang for buck jap restaurant! I like the una tama don (eel on egg rice)

alrightey! now to tag people!
1) Ashley Ho - haha! now you kena!
2) Wenqi - if you ever read this, :P
3) Chin Kian
4) Irene Teo
5) Tim Teoh

Weekend chill

Man, I'm getting slack in updating this blog.. Past 2 weeks has been crazy in the university equine rotation. Starting at bout 730 am till bout 6pm daily, with treatments at night on certain days..Just this morning I had to give 2 hourly checks and meds(10pm,12 am, 2am, 4am...) on a miniature horse foal that is hospitalised for colic.. and her fluids keep stuffing up, so most visits took about an hour to sort it out. Yep, I don't have to explain any further!

Oh well, the next two weeks should be much more relaxed now that I've got the equine rotation out of the way (well not entirely.. still have a test that I need to resit)

Ok ok, now for some exciting updates.. Firstly, I went on a "field trip" with my lecturer/senior vet together with 2 others to ultrasound 2 horses. One of them was Musket, Makybe Diva's little brother! I just found out that he was sold for a whopping $2.5 million aussie dollars ! (which is an Australian record according to wiki) Man, his vet must be having a pretty intense career.. But yea, it's not everyday that you get to swab alcohol on a $2.5 horse's chest.. thought that I'll share it with you guys..

Secondly, I managed to book return tickets to Melbourne for $10! That's even cheaper than taking a cab to the airport from Sydney.. I owe this to Jetstar's 3rd birthday sale.. well, the tickets were just $3 one way ($2 credit card surcharge). Also bought the one way tick to tassie from Melb for the same price, am now looking for cheap flights for the return back to melb. I'll be looking forward to this super low budget trip of mine!

Gonna chill a bit at the moment.. but still gotta study and prepare for the next subrotation on monday.. here we go!
