43Days: It's NC16 or whatever you deem it to be.

Alright. I'm in the midst of writing my reflections for the Vet attachment.Well, I've been keeping my notes that I've written for my attachment and then I'm transferring them all into my daily attachment reflections in my scheduler.
My scheduler's my non-man's best friends. *giggles.*
Alright. I've been neglecting my reflections for days and I've yet to complete and compile them. Perhaps I could type them out and save them in my computer too for a soft copy. Two is better than one huh?
Well, that is provided if I'm not lazy to do that.
Well, I'll give you guys to some insight of what I've been seeing at my attachment. :D


Closed Pyometra. [Pyometra is womb infection. ]
For Pyometra, there're 2 types: Open and Closed.
Open Pyometra = Pus discharge at the vulva of the bitch.
Closed Pyometra = Opposite of above, meaning no discharge
*laughs*

Then during a spaying surgery,


Alright. These are some of the things I got to see. Although there are much more to just these pictures.
Alright. I got distracted and helped Yuhui in her Econs. Well, I've to say I can actually write her econs topic while she's scratching her head hard for ideas. I thought it wasnt that hard for her topic she was given. It's close to our everyday life huh? MRT.
Well, if it's an essay, then i'll be hard. But if you need me to contribute ideas, well, it'll be easier. Haha.

Alright. Some credits to this website. It certainly helped alot to potray what I've been always trying to show you guys. Its hard since I couldn't take picture.

44Days: I had fun today!

I'll make this a short post. I'm deprived from entertainment and that was quick, since the last time I had was 2 days ago. *at the edge of depression*

Alright. Short. I've to remember that.
I went to the career and exhibition fair as Alvin told me to. Well. It's fun.
ShiRui accompanied me there by the way. Dad couldn't make it and I envy Charlotte. D:
Her dad & mum were there.
Look at my dad and mum.
Dad knew I that I had this thing 3 weeks ago, and still, he went for his usual golf session and house-warming at his colleague's house. *Saddens*
Mum didn't want to get out from home. And her usual, of course. " It's so sunny today. I don't want to go out!"

Oh. I got to talk to Holly and meet with Charlotte. :D
We exchanged our e-mail and phone number. Woohoo.
At least I know someone from Sg who is going over there. And her dad's going over to Perth next week to look at her accommodation environment I think. They're still in the midst of choosing the home-stay.
That's way cool. I mean. My dad? Go to Perth? Choose my homestay?
Hell no. Never. NEVER. :D

So, hope we can get along. Her parents are funny too. They were very keen to let both of us stay in the same house. Dad was like" Huh. Really? Thats great."
Well, I got alot of infomation from Holly. So that's great.

Alright.Short post. Bye!

46Days: He left. Good luck!

Melbourne!

My friend, Ken left for Victoria already! D:
I didn't know. I mean. I forgot. Darn it.
Actually, I've forgotten how I got to know him. Haha. Bad memory power I've got here. Anyway, hope his new life at Melbourne would be great. Oh, not forgetting his wife. Haha.

He actually wanted to invite me to his wedding. But hey, look at me. I'm just 17 years old and I can't afford his wedding ang-bao and the dinner. Ohh. BIG Expense. D:
Sorry guy. Although I didn't really meet him before, [Opps!] but he's a nice guy. I often talk to him on net and he'll offer to help me and inform me about Australia stuffs cause he was there before and he taught me alot actually.

Melbourne's a nice place? No idea. I'll ask him again.
Perth

46Days: Wake me up.

Alright. First and foremost... ...

All the best to the A level students out there getting their results tomorrow! :D
- Ahem. Although I only know a few who are getting :X -
Oh. Good luck Charish! :D As well as all the seniors I know out here.

Charish's the girl who's also doing the vet attachment with me. She've been there for more than a month!
She's witty alright! Well, compared to me... ... Ahem. At least I can tell you guys she's did the IP programme in her school and skipped her O levels. Really wish her all the best.
Well, I'm not that sure if she really wants to plunge into vet studies, but she could only if she gets the AVA scholarship. That's what she told me though. I mean, yes, indeed vet studies cost a bomb. The figures go up to an amazing amount. I'm shocked as well. But I'm glad my dad could afford, though I've to pay him back all the huge figures in future. Hahaha.
I know there are many people who wishes to study, yet the fees are amazingly a huge burden to them. Let's do the calculations.
For Murdoch University, the annual fee is 37k. It's a 6 years course. So it'll be 37k*6= 222k.
*Jaws drop*
How long do I have to work till I'll earn this amount? That's just the tuition fees. Inclusive of the accommodation fees, the flight tickets, the living fees. I think I'll have huge amount of debt to clear to my dear daddy.
Well, that is if I get into the course :x

Then there was one day, I asked Dad
Me: " Daddy. Have you got a million?"
My dad was saying " Yeah. I've earned a million before. But my investment cost be a big hole in my pocket."
Me: HUH! WHAT INVESTMENT! WHY YOU SO STUPID GO INVEST. The economy's not good already! Don't invest lah!
Dad: Haha. So you're asking me not to invest in your studies? Alright. Go settle your bills and tuition fees yourself.
Me: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. You're clever. You invest in us eh! How can you say that. It must your genius mind telling you to invest in me! Wahhahaa. Your mind's telling you " She'll have a bright future. invest. Invest."
Dad: *Silence*
That is seriously hilarious. I'm trying to make him feel better. haha! Guess it's the othe way huh. He's mind might be telling him :" You're stupid. Why go invest in her."
Hahahahah! I can read minds!
But. I'm still very slow. Towards some things, I'll just never find out until people tell me. But hey, it's good alright! At least I won't have to ponder so much about it. But the thought just make me feel that I'm
equivalent to WeiJian.
Wait, correction. WeiJian's fast alright. But he's soft. Like me.
Opps. I hear someone laughing madly. Someone like kke. She's always saying " You're very quiet meh? I think you're noisy eh!" *Heartbreaks*

Well, if Charish really gets her AVA scholarship, she'll start her school term only next year, if she chooses Murdoch though.
Certain Universities only have one intake for a particular course, so choose well people.
But, Murdoch's course is a double degree course. So by the end of the 6 years, one will have 2 degrees. Quite worth it if I were to say.
I'm hoping to study as long as I can. I don't really fancy the time where we've to face the workforce. It's kinda scary. Well, everything's happening so fast and as a 17 year old teenager, sometimes we'll find it hard to understand why adults do this and that.

Now, study hardddddddddddddddd everyone. Reach out to our dreammmmmssss.

Oh. Soeul Garden's trip's been changed to the March Holidays.
But it's alright. I'm looking forward to the Malacca trip once again. Friday-Sunday!
Dad's bringing us there. Haha. Hope everything goes well. Most importantly, hope that dad don't fuss to much and buzz us about this and that. It gets kind of irrating at times. Ryan would agree. :D

Yay! And girls are meeting up on 18th April too!
If the day's set, YOU GIRLS BETTER GO. Some people like the old ones keep making us wait for her to appear and to no avail. D:
I mean, even it's not this date, at least we get to meet up righttttt! I've to wait until I-don't-know when then I'm able to meet you guys.
And on a side note, I realised Poly's havng exams during the period of time when I'm back at Singapore. D:
This means it'll be even harder to get them out of school to meet me D:
I'm like so selfish! D: D;

Like what ShiRui says:
SR: " You eyes are so small haha! >> D: I box your 'D:' then I'll become 'D;' "
Me: " EHHHH. Out of shape already! I don't want to be disfigured!!! "
SR: " Haha.Cause I box you."

Alright. It seems like there's no link. Anyway, I'll eventually turn from D: to D;
It's either she box me. Or... I'm sadden till my face turns D;
But it's alright. :D
Can webcam righhhhht! Haha! I'll see my brother everynight and tell him to save some save for me for the new house.
NOT THE LIVING ROOM alright.

Kelly&Dean. You guys are missing. MISSING.
I miss you guys. Everyday's work-work-work to them. But I'm missing people too cause I've to work-work-work too. And my off days are like weird timings.
Moreover, I'm getting more reluctant to get out of my house. I want to spend more time on my bed, sleeping, using my laptop & etc.
I'll not get it there! D:
No toys. No bolster. *Saddened*

Cheers people. Live with it then. What can I do? Bring my bolster on a hand-carry bag and let those customs police rip it off thinking there'll be illegal drugs in it? D:
But my bolster will occupy a BIG portion of the suitcase, as well as the winter clothings. D:
What can I bring there actually? Essential items. Nothing extra.

Save space Nichole.

Devil Nichole : You want to bring goodies back right?
Nichole: YES!
Devil Nichole : You want to bring clothings you bought there right?
Nichole: YES!
Devil Nichole: You want to stuff every single thing you've bought there right?
Nichole: YES!
The inner devil is seriously a bad infulence. :S

48Days: Spreeeees

Alright. Today, went to Jurong Point with ShiRui and Adeline.
We're a bunch of indecisive girls and dumb as well. I shan't elaborate. I'm being dumb the whole day.
We went for Pizza Hut in the end. So, yeah. Food's just alright. I specifically mean the Chicken Haven Pasta. I didn't really like the cream. Isn't my kind of thing.

I've to get my butts down and STUDY!
All these while, I'm busying with the vet attachment and I value every single day and time which I get to rest, which is my Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Great. I've so many days to rest, yet I always get the feeling of not enough rest. Perhaps my internal clock just works at the wrong timing. D:

But well, I got to finish up Atomic Sturcture and Chemical Bonding these two chapters, sooo... ... I think it's alright huh?
This 2 chapters are big. Big enough to be the first chapter for my Chemistry syllabus I have there. *Groans*
Alright. Tomorrow's attachment day again. Oh. Friday's the day for A level grads. Ahhh.
Lucky I don't have to go through all the various subjects which I don't need.
I mean, Econs? No need.
Chinese? No need.
H2Maths? No need. [I just realised! Stupid me. I'm taking Applicable Maths which mostly H2 maths don't cover. It's kinda weird and difficult! D:]
Physics? No need.

Great. I dont have to touch on so many extra ones. Even with my subject combination and if, I mean IF i don't qualify for Vet Science, I'll do Animal Science then. Arghh. D: D: D:
And the subject combinations required for entry are the same, just that the results defers.

I'm happy. Well, just for now though.

I browsed through a few spree sites. And Kke sent me this Supre Website where their stores are located at Australia. Then for a sudden, a though just came to me.
Stupid.
I'm going to Australia. And I kept browsing at those sprees that those spree-ers are ordering from Australia. Stupid me.
They have a few stores in Perth. So I'd just go down when I'm there. Hey before I'm back from Perth, if you guys want anything from those stores, I could get them for you alright! Haha.
No extra charges lah!
Take it as a gift cause I absorb the handling and shipping charges. LOL
So mad.I'm mad.
But I'm serious. I mean, if you come across this item and its in PERTH, then I could get you one.
Mind you. PERTH I mean. If it's Victoria, I can't get it! lol. It's Brisbane and etc etc, which is like some distance away from Perth.

Cause I need to get some stuffs for Mum, Dad and Ryan and some friends too when I'm back. Hey,I'll bring soveniors alright! So don't moan. :s

But I'm not there yet. Darn. Why am I getting so excited already. I'm actually fearing as the day approaches.It's back again. I mean the fear. After the Malacca trip, I'd have 20 plus days left. Which is like FAST.

I'm afraid I'll be homesick. Friend-sick. and JSS-sick. Argh.
I kind of miss the times back then. The thought of me in a total foreign country... ...
without my comfy bed to be on
without my Mum and Dad to talk to and tell them what had happened at school verbally
without the quarellings I'dve with my greatest brother, Ryan
without my cats and dogs to care for and look after.
without my friends to accompany to watch movies.
without my friends to eat out with me
without my friends to watch all the ballet shows at esplanade and many more.

I'm actually enjoying my whole time here, but until Alvin called and told me to prepare some questions to ask Holly, a Murdoch University Representatives.
Dad's unable to make it cause... ... he've a golf session with Unlce Robert(s) [Cause there's 2 Uncle Robert]
And this Meet-up had been confirmed some time ago. Ughhh. How can he do that to me. Letting me face Holly all alone.

At a age of 16, people would say hey, you're young.
But everything just doubles up when you tell people you're 17.
Responsibility doubles.
People who go to Poly would no longer consider as 'student' where they get the 'adult concession' treatment.
I'm just 17 and talking to the representative all alone without my dad to bring up some questions as I think through want do I actually want. Yes. I'm still a dad-dependent girl.
I've to change. Although I still need his shoulders, but regarding certain things ,I think it should change from a ' What to do Dad?" to a " Dad, perhaps we could consider this."
Hey. You guys out there who are taking your A Levels next year would be doing next year alright!
I meant talking to the Uni Rep. Well, some choose not to. But still, I'm choosing a foreign country's University. So everything should be asked to gain some proper knowledge.
Really have to thank Alvin loads. Perhaps the point of this whole talk with the rep is to make me be more firm with my dream. I think it is.
At least it helps with the decision making for my college subjects.
And yes people, I get to choose what subjects to take when I at the college itself. I don't have to decide now. So great.
I'm all prepared. Comeon' Holly.

Shit, I just remembered I've got the Murdoch College meet-up with the College Rep.
Ughh. Once again, another set of questions to prepare. I'm like going for a battle against important people and everything've to be ready before I go.
Haha. weird.
Moreover, ShiRui's accompanying me there too!
People interested can go too!
It's a Suntec Career Exhibition. I think they have something like self-analysis for you to do. I think so only alright! They'll have you to analysis what jobs are suitable for you according to your personality after you complete a set of questions. Well, they had that for the Australian Open Day though. Not sure about this.
But if y ou're really interested, just to inform you that they have this to let people understand their interest and etc. So perhaps you guys can drop by to gain some knowledge and further strengthen yourself and come up with a firm and confirm desicion before you do your A levels next year. I mean, the earlier the better. At least you have a goal to aim for or something like that.
Having a goal is easier. I mean, at least you know what you want. If you tried your best and you can't get in, then try other alternatives.
The Autralian Open Day have taught me quite some stuffs.

For instance, if you want to get into this particular course, but your Alevel grades can't get you in, and if you're very determined to get into that course, then research on the units of study for that course.
Next, find and choose another course which have the very similar units of study and do uber well for your course that you've been allocated.
Well, at least you have a chance of transfering to the course you once aimed for.

Like I've always believe. There are alternatives. As lifes goes, we meet various people and situations where we detest, but alternatively, we can sort it and find a way out for the better. So believe and dare to aim. Even if you don't get what you want, You know you've tried. You know you're persistent and try other ways to get it.
I don't believe in letting go. It's very hard. I was telling him. Letting go is hard. Maybe try accepting that you once had it. Accept that you're once in love. Although you'll be scared to love for another, but at least you know you're not escaping.
Not like I was at least.

Alright. So emotional. D:
Cheers people. Don't give up.

49Days: I'm in Love... ...

I think I'm in love.
Argh. I want to see Almo. D:

ALMO! D:
I can't see Almo tomorrow cause it's my studying session.
With all the kisses and sorts...
I want to see Almo. I want to see Almo.
I want to see Almo. I want to see Almo.
I want to see Almo. I want to see Almo.
I want to see Almo. I want to see Almo.

I miss Almo already.

I miss Almo already. I miss Almo already.
I miss Almo already.I miss Almo already.



Today's attachment was another nerve-wrecking one.
It was so busy. I'm usually the one who have to find things to do, yet today, surprisingly, everything just came naturally to me. So, it's not a bad day to me, well, not that bad. Yet, more consults means more animals sick. I'd rather I'm there searching for some nugatory ones instead.
Well, busy day means more lessons learnt.
There's this new admin clerk, and I chatted with her during our lunch break. She's quite an easy-going lady. Easy to talk with, easy to understand. :D
Soooooooo.
I've got to pack medincine, thanks alot Eliza. She taught me some of the other medicines that I've not seen before as well as some which I've seen.She basically taught me how to decipher the doctor's handwritings and labelling the medicine names to it's uses. You know how hideous it can get sometimes right?!
Some like:
1. Bactium [shortf. :Bac]- Antibiotic
2. Prednisolone [shortf. :Predn]- Anti-Inflammatory
3. Kaolin [shortf. :Kao]- Diarrhea
4. Vitamin B12 [shortf. :B12] - Appetizer
5,
Anti-Fungal Cream [shortf. :AF] - Inhibits fungal growth

Eliza also taught me how to prepare the probiotics: Lactobactilium that aids digestion.
Thanks alot.

Well, I saw some usual surgeries and a new one which is actually involeves spaying but the special thing is that the dog's uterus is infected, we call that Pyometra. The utertus were infected and so huge! It was kind of amazing cause it was nothing near what I saw for the cat's spaying which involves abortion of the kittens as well.
I wonder if any owner would opt for abortion? Or is that even such surgery just for abortion? I wonder how would the vets do it. I mean, spaying just involves the removal of the uterine horns and they'll tie the remaning ones up. What about abortion then?
Abortion should be removal of the kittens instead of the uterine horn isn't it? Well, it is for human terms, I'm so damn curious does that happens and how would they operate.

Amazingly, it's just Monday. Monday me! ... ... And I saw maggots.
Cats seldom have maggots growing in them, but this particular cat had! And all the vet nurses, Charish and me were taking our turns to literally pluck out the maggots from the fresh flesh of this cat. What a disgusting sight. We can actually get kind of rough in a sense to help the cat. I dug sooooo deep just to remove that freaking maggots, and it's one after another maggot,that snugs in that one hole that they dug. It was so interesting to see everything happening right in front of you.
Although the cat has been rompun... ...
but seeing all the blood, flesh and maggots just got me kind of hyped up. Haha.
Please, I mean for the cause of treatment purposes. If flesh, blood and maggots were to emerge from nowhere and just because of entertainment that people get from those whatever rated movies, I'll just step out of the movie theatre that right moment.
Wait, what will even get me to be in that movie theatre anyway? Perhaps lured in? Haha.

That isn't the best part of my whole attachment today.
Dr Chee introduced Almo to me. At first, I just thought he was just another one out there, but. but.
I miss him already.
The aftermath = D: D: D: D: D: D: D:

I wonder Almo will be there on Wednesday. I hope so. I hope so. I hope so.
Please me there. My whole day's just filled with Almo.
Emps kept asking me " So how's Almo?"
Haha. I'll just laugh it away.
