Location: Singapore

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!

Honestly, I am not so much into the mood of blogging tonight, but I'm still here with an entry cos I can't get to sleep.

I'm very exhausted and I was almost dozing off while watching VCD on my bed earlier on. Even when Mum came to ask me what I think of bfast with Dad and her later in the day (Dad's not going to work), I was looking like a zombie and answered monotonously.

But the moment the lights were out, I couldn't get to sleep. I still feel very disturbed, and there are just so many things going through my mind. I shall blog abt it privately later...if I still have the energy..

Anyway, I met up with Leona this afternoon. She's really small and cute. Very sweet looking as well.

I am glad we didn't feel odd being out together. It was shopping for us at Bugis. I think we got excited over many things, at least I did. Saw so many things which I wish I could buy, but $$$ was the problem. However, I still didn't get to overcome the temptation, and ended up buying this very pretty lilac crystal handphone chain. It's hanging on my hp now, and I love it so much.

We went to Bugis Village (is that wat it's called?) soon after. It's my first time really walking in there, and I'm so amazed by the amount of things they sell there. Lots of bags. Imitations of course, but still, they are nice..and cheap! And the bonus is, you can bargain with the seller too. I'm sure many around me know about it, so I'm kinda suaku for only knowing it after Leona told me so today.

I bought a bag from there. Only $21. And it's big. Reckon I can put books in there. Unfortunately it's not waterproof (UK rains a lot), but I think I'll still bring it to UK.

It's almost the end of November. Half of my leave from school is over.
Honestly speaking, I still have no idea what I have done so far. Apart from learning languages, I haven't really done anything which I have originally planned, which makes me feel disappointed about.
I wonder when my Uni will let me know my expected date of return. Surprisingly, I seem to be looking forward to returning, but I am wondering if it'll be so when the time comes.
Whenever I look through the glass to take a last look at those who see me off, whenever I am walking to the boarding gate, whenever I'm waiting to board the plane, and whenever I'm looking out of the window before the plane takes off, I'm always thinking of numerous things. I always have tons of things I want to say, but never was there once I said them out. I don't actually think anyone knew either because they're too far away to see it, too far to feel it.
Perhaps it's still a little far to wonder or perhaps it isn't since time passes really quickly, but...what will I be thinking and what will I be saying silently this time round...? Is there any possibility that maybe...just maybe...I won't be wanting to come home for good anymore?
