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!

No matter what, I must do well for JLPT..hmpf!

3rd day of Jap class..and I'm still lost.

It didn't turn out to be some class whereby everyone's learning the same thing. It ended up like some tuition class whereby everyone's doing different levels while one teacher;s around to supervise. Never seen a system like this before, but nvm, since I've paid up, I'm gonna stick with it and make the best out of it. How? By self-studying and bombarding the teacher with questions.

Basically, the class is more like an 'up to u' class..meaning you wanna learn then u better work hard, if not, u can rot in the class and no one will give shit abt it. So naturally, some just don't bother coming everyday, or leave class early, come to class late, sit and stare into space etc. There are some who are really hardworking and keen to do well though. I'm the 'baby' in the class because the others are doing either Levl 1 or 2, while I'm stuck at Level 4..hahhahaha. Wonder how's Level 3's like.

My lesson everyday's so disorganised. I'm made to read different books aloud and the books are always changing..and no notes are given, except a photostated textbook which isn't very detailed. I want to do well, so I must make sure I know things in detail. Finally, I got so pissed with the disorganised teaching that I decided to buy a textbook, stick to only that textbook, self study chapters at home, and bombard the teacher with queries the next day. I'm not gonna let them cause my failure for my JLPT exam in December...hmpf!

Walked ard some shops on my way home, hoping to find a bag to replace my spoilt black one which I adore (cos it's big and soft..got zips too), but can't even find any. Either there's no zip, no secret compartments, straps being too short, not waterproof or the design sux. The best place would probably be in Far East, but I'm too lazy to walk that far lah..sianz manz..it's like in the middle of no where in Orchard.

Gonna revise now...or else the day will end before I know it....
