The little things in life

 I haven’t blogged in a while but I feel as though a lot of little things make everyday different.  For example 2 weeks ago I thought of blogging about one single thing I saw in the day but rather I decided against it and thought I would blog when I saw a few things.  Starting 2 weeks ago, I came to a realisation which actually made me smile when I saw it and again when I thought about it.  Everyday that I walked to the dental school I would walk past a church.  Perhaps once a month I would walk past the church and there would be a wedding.  Being part even the tiniest part (being a walkerby) of a couple’s happiest day of their life made me smile.  Of course walking to the dental school is no easy nor enjoyable task, going uphill for about 5 minutes doesn’t make anybody happy ;p

Last week there were pretty major renovations where a few tradespeople came in and removed all the floors and replaced it with laminate.  Now laminate looks like wood but its like really condensed cardboard and the top there is a sheet that makes it looks like wood ;p quite ingenious.  A small thing I noticed was that the laminate would last 25 years! So that thing sheet impersonating wood would last 25 years! That’s amazing!!!

I guess I never really thought about it but the group skype conversation and whataspp conversation is a small thing that makes me feel connected to my high school friends.  Any time I want to talk to someone about something, voice an opinoion or whatever I can jump on there and there will probably be someone on provided it isn’t 2 am ;p.  I had the most fun in swotvac the other day.  Leon changed his name to Thomas Tran so I retaliated by changing mine to leon kiriaev.  This prompted ben and Thang to change their names and we just insulted each other for a good half hour J  After a while we stopped not because it stopped being fun but because we eeded to study or do something else.  It was however the most I had laughed in a long long time.
The final thing I wanted to share was getting small presents unexpectedly J So during the holidays Joyce had posted on facebook a question ‘what is my favourite dental material?’ I guessed correctly and got an unexpected present which made me smile J who doesn’t like free chocolate hahaha

Well this summer holiday should be quite enjoyable even though I only have 2 months, it is the first and last months which are always fun and the middle one is quite stagnant ;p lets hope it stays that way since there IS NO MIDDLE MONTH J

I am also looking forward to next year where I’ll get to know the third year students better and get right back into dentistry, I actually plan to do bit of study while in Sydney, reading microbiology handout that walsh made and some immunology.  Even though I do understand a lot I feel that there is still a gap in my knowledge that I need to fill before I start next year.  I will also be looking at Robbin’s pathology which should be a good bedtime story…even though its about diseases and such :P

passed the year and been going out a few times a week. home is lonelier than I remember. Everyone has their own life now and its quite independent of me which is saddening but at the same time I'm glad.  It gives me motivation to find my own way!
