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!
