Name:
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!

Jet-Lagging?

Never had this problem before, but now I know what it is all about..sigh..

Despite being in the A380 on my flight back to the UK, I still didn't manage to get much sleep at all. No doubt I'm a piggy and I do sleep anywhere (yes, I dozed off once while sitting on the toilet bowl doing my business), but somehow, I couldn't get to sleep at all in the plane. Or maybe just a little bit of snooze before touch down. The entertainment was brilliant, but that wasn't the main reason for keeping me awake.

Snoozed more whilst on the coach and train back to where I currently am.

I'm not as happy as how I returned to this place like the last time, and the first thing I did after unpacking my almost-empty luggage and showering is to hide under my duvet, with music playing in the background.

Memories started streaming back to my last years in University whereby I'll end up spending most of my time in Dearie's room singing and talking to myself whilst he's busy doing his stuffs. And then waking up to find food on the table if I happen to doze off amongst my piles of books and notes.

I slept a good 5 hours after ending a call with Dearie. It's comforting hearing his voice, especially when I haven't been feeling well these few days. Maybe it's the lack of sleep (I couldn't sleep much during my few days' stay in Sg) which has caused my immunity to plunge, causing some cough to start. Been feeling quite nauseous for a few days too. I wished Dearie was here to give me some TLC.

Ok, time to call him again. Hopefully he's woken up.

And work starts later...sigh...
