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!

Nearly slept in class today

Again, it was the self-studying type of class..reckon it'll stay this way for the 3 months...aiyo!

Brought my textbook in and did my own studying. Cleared some doubts with my teacher and when he saw the book, guess what he said? "BOOK 1?!?!?!?" He was expecting me to do book 2, but come on lah, like as if I remember what I've learnt before. 30 lessons in Book 1, I will try to finish them in about a week, then I'll go on to Book 2. I assured him that I'll make it to Book 2 in a week. He said I've got to move faster if I want to take the Level 4 exam. Yah, I surely have to, but no one is guiding me! Oh well, I'll just have to depend on myself.

He asked me to do a test paper today..one of the Level 4 proficiency test papers. It was't that difficult. There were some which I haven't learnt before, but if I did, I don't see a reason why I will get them wrong. Nevermind, there's still time for me to work on it.

The date of the exam is out. A poster was put up in class today and the teacher told us to go get the forms ourselves...what the...!!!! We were making so much noise about the school's responsibility to have those forms. Why did we pay to self-study and now even have to go and get the forms ourselves? I'm quite fed up about the system. Gonna complain to the principal cos he's the lazy one. My teacher's great and he's innocent cos he noes nuts about it.

A supposedly have-something-to-do day turned out to be a end-up-at-home day. So back to daily routine..that's to revise. Got the message about the cancelled meeting this morning and I lost my mood completely in class. Had this urge to go home already. My concentration plunged manz..can feel it. And it got so bad I nearly slept in class!!!! Fortunately no one saw me dozing off. It would be so embarrassing if anyone did..phew...
