Emma's party

First off on friday went to lectures then went to movies.  The avengers is a pretty good movie :D I think it would be much more enjoyable in the cinemas than at home.  got popcorn and krispy kreme!  got a smaller box so we got a large popcorn and split it that way, the popcorn was too salty but its one of those things you just keep eating so my mouth felt very salty haha.

Afterwards, went home and had dinner, started on emma's card for saturday night

saturday, finished the card and went with elaine to buy the present.  got the present and went home to shower and change.  had bi bim bap or whatever its called and it was much nicer than the other shop we had it at.  It was pouring outside at this stage.  caught a bus to cultural centre and then another to boundary street. found the venue for emma's 21st and she had a crochembouche or houwever you spell the tower of profiterroles .

got home before midnight and felt quite tired so went to bed, woke up at 9 today, time to get my study on and write down all the steps for the 2030 prac exam then look over the 2022 cavity prep criteria.

spam bots are back

looking at the chat box and i see spam bots gosh...they are terrible

today had the 2062 exam and it was pretty much the same as last year so i expect to do well but i have to admit a few of the questions eluded me...I didn't study that much for this one because it doesn't help if i do more than pass.

aunty lizzie came over for about 4 hours today, ate fruit and watched tv mostly hahaha! funtimes;p

anzac day tomorrow i wonder what I will do...

When you want to work but you can't

It wasn't about laziness or anything today. I woke up went shopping with aunty susan because uncle mark is still weak from his operation. Had another 3 piece feed and it was not as good as yesterdays but meh. I then went to the library to do the self directed learning exercise before studying for the midsemester 2062.

SO i spent about an hour at the library trying to figure out why it resource called virtual micrscopy slidebox wouldn't open. After trying everything, i emailed Dr. Dalton and then asked the AskIT guy which i figured out was quite close to where I was. When he came over and told me it wasn't gonna work and that i should just email my course co ordinator, I just decided to study for the midsem and give up on the prac exercise.

After studying for 2 hours I decided to come home for dinner and aunty linda was over visiting uncle mark. After she left to go to a dinner, we started eating and aunty lizzie came almost straight away and she watched us eat hahaha ;p

Afterwards I started looking into the ADSA convention more and I am going to go. I will spend less money this year because I don't have to add airfares into the equation ;p Atm its going to be $585 which includes the hotel :D

Yay finally an interesting day

So today i woke up a tiny bit late - got to lecture about 2 minutes late and it was boring, I already knew most of the stuff he was talking about haha went to try to do my 2062 prac but was confronted with not working computers which means that i have to go in again tomorrow and hope for the best... tried 4 different computers but to no avail...hope tomorrow has better luck!

Then went to the arvo lecture which was quite fun :D I then went to the city and tried tog et a free burger but didn't :( that was not cool mos burger...giving out all the coupons in the first 3 minutes...

had some kfc instead, hadn't had any in ages and ages! got some krispy kreme and then went home. uncle mark was home from hospital and aunty lizzie and uncle barry was home. I got aunty susan's present online, I think she'll like it and it should come in time :D

went out to sanil's birthday (didn't know it was his bday, thought it was just a dinner :P) went to unlimited korean bbq and i atre quite a lot -not much rice hahahaha). we walked form the city to the valley and then caught a bus back. we then went to a pub before going to timezone and then finally to play pool.

After that we caught a bus back and i got off at buranda and had just miseed the 120 which meant i had to walk through the park. I talked to someone on the busway though, it was quite interesting, not sure if he's trustworthy but it made the 15 minute wait not too bad ;p walked thorugh the parka nd was quite delighted to find the path lights up quite birghtly at night :D got home at 12 15 and I think its too late to call mum so will call tomorrow and go to uni to finish the self directed learning!

Visiting uncle mark

Today was a free day, woke up at 9 to do my washing, had porridge for breakfast and burrito for lunch ( i saved it from yesterday muhahahha, nto as delicious after being in the microwave though ;p) then after lunch, aunty susan adn I went to sunnybank to visit uncle mark at sunnnybank hospital. Aunty susan told me he was much better today that yesterday so that was good, from what i saw he seemed normal.

got a bottle of water from the hospital muhahaha!

ran into lily and ting-ha while waiting at sunnybank bus stop, had a little chat before they caught a different bus.

brought my washing in and watched some running man. that show is quite funny and really long, over an hour each episode! well have to start studying for 2062, don't want to do badly in the midsem, that reflects badly on myself! 8 am start tomorrow eughhhh

Free burrito!

So yesterday was midsem day and I did the 2052 exam. It was surprisingly similar to last years which gave me a marked advantage! Afterwards there was quite a bit of discussion about the exam and I seem to have done quite well :D

Lab was interesting, I did what took me 2 and a half hours at the start of lab (Setting 3 teeth) to setting it in 5 minutes. I admit it is probably not perfect but hey, 5 minutes ;p

After that I went to try ands core a free burrito. The line was far too long about a 40 minute wait and because I only had about an hour, I decided to get something else and get the burrito later! Went to maccas in the newly renovated winter gradens...had some amazing chips! Went to preclinic and finished the day's exercise in about an hour out of the 3. i'm getting pretty fast!

After that david and I went to get that burrito and on the way to the bus stop after, got some drinks at supanews , 2 for 2 bucks!

gotta start studying 2062 and do the prac, might go to uni in the weekend cos that sort of thing can't be viewed at home, only on certain computers at uni.

Last couple of days between studying for 2052 midsem!

So I left off on saturday, the dinner went well and on saturday it was quite funny. At 11 20 mum called me reminding me I had uni on monday. We ended up talking for over an hour so her plan didn't really work hahaha.

Yesterday didn't really have much happen except that there is something wrong with the gasline/hotwater system because it turns off for some reason don't know why...

Today at lunch, silvia brought the lock to her locker because it wasn't working, it was a pretty cool lock, the dials spun around and made a clicking sound each time you spun it. anyway after fiddling around with it for a while, haowen figured out how to set a combination for the lock (he managed to guess the number for the lock...there are only 1000 different combinations. Benson decided to put the code as 000 and see how long it took for silvia to guess it...but i said 'I wonder how long it would take for someone to guess 000' and she promptly tried it hahahah foiled!

I was complimented a few times on my purple jumper today! yay I didn't want to take it off in lab even though it was quite warm...darn lab coat hahaha

the drilling exam was today I thought it was on wednesday so that got me a little by surprised but oh well I should be fine finished in about half the allocatd time, the prep didn't look as good outside of the mouth as it did inside haha ;p as always...

I went to learning support asking if I could come in and observe/ assist and they said no...which is quite strange, I have to get written consent by the course co ordinator or something troublesome gosh. I'll work on that in the coming weeks.

2 days in and I didn't blog yesterday hahaha

Hello avid readers!

Yesterday was aunty veronica's birthday (not that i saw her for very long, she went out for lunch and dinner but I did go over to leech internet ;p) Went over for a good 3 and a half hours, Aunty susan enlisted my help to send a text with her mobile. There was trouble because even though she did everything right, it didn't send to Aunty veronica but I called her and sent the text again and it all worked out!

So today I went to the new Carindale shopping centre and even though its open there is a lot of 'this shop is coming soon'. It looks much the same but there is a noticeable difference, its much mroe chic despite having the same shops. There was a store which attracted a lot of attention, it was a shop which had almost nothing in it but the people outside were handing out stickers and for a donation of your own nomination, you get some stickers and you can stick them all around the shop. The kids inside seemed to be having a blast ;p the people handing out the stickers were conveniently looking away (hope they don't have to take out all the stickers lol!

Had a glance around at midseason sale but didn't get anything ;p

Aunty susan is having another dinner for family so it means there is gonna be a lot of food! Uncle mark is set to have an operation on tuesday and he'll be in hospital til friday so aunty susan is going to take some time off from college.

I finally finished sernia's lectures gosh there is so much in those...time to do arugram or whatever his name is. There isn't actually too much to his elctures so its alright!

A brand new year for blogging!

Hello everyone! I haven't blogged in such a long time, about 6 months. So much has happened in the that time!

First of all after the exams which was where I left off, I went back to Sydney and had a blast :D I was not as active as the other years because everyone seems to be getting jobs and having so many other commitments, driving siblings places etc. The holidays were still very enjoyable though :D

I didn't pass a subject last year so I have to repeat the whole year for a subject which would only happen in dentistry :( school policy. So I'm doing the year again! My days are spent very differently this time around, I know what I need to do for each assessment, I know how to allocate my time to get things done but most of all I have much more free time which I can devote to actually reading the textbooks I bought instead of having them sit around.

I went to Japan :D first overseas trip yay! Looking back now, (over 2 months later), Japan is not what I expected an asian country to be, I remember a lot of people around the place working, makes even Sydney look like it doesn't have that many workers hahaha. I miss the snow and the toilets that wash your butt, I'm stuck here using toilet paper but over there I was living the high life man!

A lot of things became ordinary over there which now it seems amazing! For example eating out everyday, living in hotel rooms and seeing snow all the time! AHHHH. The lights at night were spectacular, the cities were beautiful but the DISNEYLAND night parade was gobsmacking, so worth it sitting there for an huor freezing my butt and hands off!

So back to the present. It is currently Midsemester break and I have an assessment every week until the end of semester exams (whethere they are big or not isn't the issue). SO I will need to work hard for those! The marks for this year are averaged with those of last year so if I get a HD then i will get an overall credit for the course which isn't too bad all things considered (I was supposed to get a credit anyway -_-)

I have to interact more with the second years but that is difficult. Not only do I not spend that much time with them (only pracs which are split into groups already) but there are so many repeating students that it makes it hard! I'm sure it'll work out, gotta let them have some time to recognise me haha.

Looking for work as a one day dental assistant with no experience is tough so I think I'll just observe and assist at the dental school for third and fourth years. That will get me acquainted with the system so that I can integrate much more easily next year!

Thats all for now, I'll try and keep daily posts!
