A Singaporean girl who graduated from a Medical College in the UK and currently working as a doctor, spending most of my years abroad burying myself amongst medical books, speaking Queen's English and trying to adapt to life in Britain. But I still remain a true blue Singaporean who loves my plate of char kway teow and enjoys the sense of closeness when speaking "Singlish" to my fellow countrymen. Why "The Chinese Doctor"? Because that's what my patients call me since they don't know my name!

I wish I owned one..

Just came back from Parkway...the boring place..but the closest place for a last minute plan.

Perfect timing. Just when I needed some fresh air, Shawn asked me to go to the pet shop. The pet shop at Parkway's got live animals, so I didn't mind tagging along while he went to buy some goodies for his 32 hamsters.

I didn't get to carry or touch any of the animals. There were rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, fishes, cats and even dogs!!! I didn't know they had live dogs! I was really happy to see those little ones. But somehow, they didn't bother taking a look at me. Young puppies they were. I saw one which I adore a lot a lot a lot, and if only I could afford to buy it, I will (provided I got permission from my parents)!

Suddenly, I wanted to buy a turtle, and keep it in my room. They stink though, especially when the water turns cloudy if I don't clean up the tank. Turtles grow so quickly. I remember having 2, which made cleaning up a nightmare. Finally, my parents had to release them in East Coast Park. Definitely, I wasn't a good owner. My room's very quiet, and I wish I had a pet to talk to. I don't talk much to other people, and besides, sometimes, I don't feel comfortable in confiding totally in others. I've got my soft toy and the cute kitty (it looks damn real) which Jason bought for me, but...oh well, it's better to keep some things to myself.

I'm still feeling beat. But I don't wish to slp too early. I doubt I can sleep well too.
