oh, becoz i'm going for the hong kong trip,
i'll be missing 6daes out of my 10dae ENT posting.
and becoz of that, i've to do a re-posting in M5.
but all is not lost, becoz i'm really enjoying my extended holidaes :)

with all the time in the world, i can meet up with frens at anytime.
we dun have to meet up for dinner only.
we can go back to st nicks to visit teacher and have yummy lunch !
and we can stay out late for supper and not worry bout school the next dae.
and best of all, we can have mahjong anytime we wann !
shiok !

anywae, i think the breakup season is here again.
now, almost everyone i know is single and sad.
haii.

its really saddening,
one moment he is the love of your life,
the person you wanna spend the rest of your life with,
the person you absolutely trust without a doubt,
and the next moment, he becomes just another stranger.
haii.
so saddening and painful :(

first dae of school was a really tiring dae for me !

first dae of ENT posting was a super long dae.
we reported to the department's office at 845am for briefing,
followed by 8lectures back to back until 530pm !
wah, that's like 8&half hours of non-stop lectures !

there was supposed to be a 30mins lunch break,
but when we got to NUH kopitiam and sat down,
i received a phone call "next lecture starts in 10mins time !"
so sian !
we had to grab a sandwich and rush up for lecture !

the 8hours of non-stop lecture was a real killer !
at the end of it, i was aching everywhere, esp my butt !
and we were so tired, by the 6th or 7th lecture, we all switched off already.
the guys behind were all sound asleep !

and after school, i had super tiring badminton training !!
my coach was crazy yesterdae !
you see, the last few training before any competition is usually games training.
thats where we spend the entire 3hours of training playing matches against each other.
but yesterdae, due to the poor training attendance,
my coach decided to make us do drills, footwork and sprints !
crazy is her name !!

and she's a really cheeky lady !
i told her that i was damn tired, den she decided to bribe me !
ok lah, she dint bribe me, she's just a super nice coach that loves us all !
she took out a box of grips and re-griped both my rackets !

coach: how's your grip? need to change?
kerly: dun need lah ! still good, can use.
coach: haiyo, go tournament then change new one, feel good mah !
kerly: hahahah. ok lor..

after changing my grip for me,
coach: so now i changed grip for you already, got strength/motivation to train somemore?

anywae, coach is really really nice !
you know, whenever we went for overseas tournament,
she'll be like our mama, and make sure we're all well taken care of.
she'll buy alot of food so that we wont be hungry at night,
and she'll take us out for yummy dinners !
and you know, she'll insist on paying for everything, and if we try to pay, she'll get upset !

i think i blogged bout this before, but i'll do it again.
you know, when we were in Perth,
we walked down a street, and i saw a super HUGE white crab !
i commented that it would taste yummy !
den coach overheard it and ended up treating us to dinner at that restaurant.
and she ordered alot of that BIG white crab and other seafood !

yar, and although she's not going with us to hongkong this time,
she gave my captain part of her training pay, bout $1000, to pay for our dinners.
so nice right?
she said that she dint train us for the money, she trained us becoz of the relationship.
and therefore, she wanted us to have part of her earnings to spend in hongkong !
so super nice right??

she's one of the best coaches i ever had.
you know, she was the one who saw the potential in me and trained me up !
she started coaching me in primary 5, and until now !
wah !
so sad, she said she might not be coaching us anymore :(

i really dunno what i'm doing man,
just hope i dun get into much trouble !

anywae, here are my new toys !
my yummy orange ipod shuffle :)i got it really cheap !
and i love orange !i've decided to use this for awhile, and if i dun like it, i'll swap with xuel !

last week, i told char that i might wanna keep 2 more bunnies with me.
coz cookie and raisin looked rather lonely and bored.
and so i decided that if i wanted more bunnies, i'll take yummy and tummy.
and therefore the msn nick "i'm dreaming of Guo Mei Wei and Guo Du Zi"

at first i put it as "i'm dreaming of Guo Mei Li and Guo Du Zi"
den my friend read it as "i'm dreaming of Pretty Guo and her Guo bunnies"
and he scolded me for calling myself pretty !
hhahahhaa, so lame !

anywae, back to the story.
char was quite sad that i might wanna take yummy and tummy awae from her,
and so she decided to bribe me with cutesie rabbit toys !
look at this pair of white bunnie magnet !!
cutesie is wad they ar, just like cookie and raisin :)
and she also gave me 4 cutesie bunnies from ikea !

they are sitting in front of my keyboard facing me !

oh cuteness !!heehee.

indeed, i'm pleased with my new toys :)

this is pretty random, but i realised that i'm really getting old :(

last time whenever i go for overseas tournament,
i'm usually the baby of the team and everyone would take care of me.
now, i'm the auntie of the team :(
look at the team list ! i'm one of the few that was matriculated in 2004 !
oh, very old indeed :(

and while packing my photo drawer, i found many old pics !
so todae, i'll blog bout my beautiful badminton memories !
hahhaha.
pardon the blur pictures, i scanned them onto my comp !

i remember, my first overseas tournament was to changmai, thailand.
that was in 1997, when i was in primary6.wahlao, so scary ! i'm so bloody old already !
its been 10years since i went for that trip !

anywae, that trip was real fun ! there were 10girls and 10guys.
and as the st nicks badminton team won double champs consecutively, in 1996 & 1997,
so more than half the players who represented the combined school team were from st nicks !
we had a real good bonding session :)

here's the singapore contingent ! if you can recognise any of the faces above,
you'll realised that many of the players are now super zai and well-known local players.
there's weipin who has been national champs for years already.
and there's phillip phua who was one of the youngest player who turned professional.
and classmates of hamon, can you spot him?

here's a picture of us with the entire badminton contingent !

among all the overseas tournaments that i've been to,

the most memorable trip was to seremban, malaysia in 2001.
i had the most fun there, maybe becoz the girls team was super close.

and we were very close to the guy team too !

i remember that when we went to seremban,

the hilton hotel was just completed and we were their first guests.

its was lovely, becoz we almost had the whole hotel to ourselves.

the funniest part bout that trip was the swimming pool incident!

i brought my hotel bathsoap to the pool and poured it into the jaccuzzi tub.

within 10mins, the tub become a giant bubbling bathtub !

the guys were so scared that they kept trying to scoop the bubbles out of the tub !

but no matter how quickly they did it, the bubbles just keep forming non-stop !

in the end, the hotel security came to scold us !

and the jaccuzzi tub was close as they had to empty out all the water,

and refill it with clean, non-soapy water !

hahahahha.

and i remembered, we made frens with all the players from other teams.

every night after our long dae of tournament,

we would be meet up with the thailand girls to play cards.

and if the indonesian and malaysian girls were free too,

we would run down to the main lobby and play Dog&Bone !

fun is all i can remember !

here's the entire badminton contingent !

can you spot me?

i'm standing beside the best looking hong kong guy in his team.

one of my team mate had a crush on him,

and she almost died of jealousy when i managed to exchange jersey with him.

in the end, i gave her that hong kong guy's jersey,

and she wore it everydae for the rest of the trip !

very crazy indeed !

and of course, i must mention my best doubles partner !

thats wylene !

we partnered in j1 and got national champs for that individual event.

yums :)

hohohoohho.
wad lovely memories indeed :)

EDIT !

oh i realised that the pictures are super small and blur.

oh well, next time den show you ok?

<3, KerlyBob! @ 12:22 am |

Saturday, June 23, 2007

oh no, how now ! what shud i do?

i really like the first generation ipod shuffle.and xuel really likes the second generation ipod shuffle.
we originally agreed that i will buy the new ipod shuffle,
and den we shall have an ipod shuffle exchange !
i take her old one and she takes the new one !
but everyone keeps scolding me for being stupid.

argh, now i dunno what to do :(

its not as if i'm making a real big loss right?
becoz presently, the price of both the old and new one is the same.
and i think i might be able to get the new model at a cheaper rate.
plus i really like the older model.

argh. this is so difficult !

i hate getting my bloody period :(
everytime i get it, i'll surely get super bad cramps !
and bad cramps = bad mood = very bad !
bad mood makes me say the wrong things and hurt people,
when i really dint mean it at all :(
bad mood makes me get upset when people say the wrong thing,
esp things that i usually do not get upset over.
haii.
this bloody period thing is terrible.
its screwing up my life :(

this is frustrating.
do you know wad irritates me the most?
stupid people who are sick but too stingy to see a doctor.
here, i say people.
becoz most of them are not my good friends,
they happen to be people i used to know from a very long ago,
who happens to know that i'm studying to be a doctor.

if doctors can give medical consults over the telephone or sms..
den why is there so many doctor clinics around?
the doctors shud just stay home and wait for phone consultations from their patients.
there's clinics becoz doctors need to examine patients too !

and also, if medical students are able to give diagnosis & treatment over the phone,
den why are we still medical students?
they might as well make us doctors immediately.

if you're seriously ill, please see a doctor.
if you're slightly unwell but concerned about it, please see a doctor.

if you're unwell and call/msg to tell me bout it.
at most, i can listen to your complaints for awhile,
offer some lousy differential diagnosis,
and den i'll still have to advise you to see a doctor.
so next time when you're ill, do me a favour, just skip the calling/msg-ing me part,
just go and see a doctor please !

thankyou for your understanding.

<3, KerlyBob! @ 1:49 pm |

Friday, June 08, 2007

haii, that big question in my head again !
i think i know wad's the right answer already.
but i really wanna go !!
haii.

here's the story.

darren and i were just talking bout the 24th World University Games,
its held in Bangkok, Thailand and its from 8-18August.
we were talking bout softball, badminton, and how lovely it would be if we went.

the next evening, i received a call from mr yum.
mr yum's the head of department of SRC in NTU.
apparently, i've been selected to represent in the 24th World University Games. and den he emailed me all the details and wants my reply on this matter by TODAY !

so the question is - To go or Not to go ?

see, at first the decision was simple.
cannot go ! and why?
becoz of my hong kong tournie,
i'll be missing part of week 1 and the entire week 2 of my paeds posting.
and if i went for the bangkok trip,
i'll be missing half of week 7 and the entire week 8 of the paeds posting !
and that also means, i'll be missing my end-of-posting test which is bad !
so that was a BIG fat NO !

den jeremy's email came in, there might be a reshuffle in time table, and i might be doing my short posting first !
if so, den there might be a fair chance i can go without missing much.

so now, i'm confused.

ok, this is why i wanna go !
firstly, i feel very flattered and honoured to be invited to take part in this tournie.
as we're taking part in the Sudirman Cup, (mixed team event),
and will be sending only 3 girls and 5 guys,
and yay yay !
i was selected to go !!

also, i looked at the line up of players,
and i'm very pleased to know that i'll be playing with all my old teammates.
really very zai players here !
and also, for the first time, i'll be playing in the same team as gerald !
so fun !

also, as this is the World University games,
we'll be seeing alot of world-class badminton players,
which would later be taking part in the Beijing 2008 Olympics.
most eggciting of all, i'll be able to take pictures with Ponsana Boonsak, the champion of Singapore Aviva Open and the Singapore Super Series !

and of course, a $300 10dae trip to bangkok sounds really cheap and good !!
oh, i love going on cheap, subsidised holidaes !

but here's why i shudnt go,
if i went, i'll be missing 3weeks out of 8weeks of my short posting !!
and there's a high chance i'll have to miss one of end-of-posting test !
den i'll have to retake it with the next batch, just like my emed test.

and also, i'm not like my fellow classmate, Valerie Teo, the national bowler.
i mean, if she missed school to play in her tournie,
there is a fair chance she'll come back with GOLDS,
and also, she can potentially come back $200 000 richer !!
but me, i'm just a varsity badminton player,
chances are, my team would be kicked out by dae 2/3, and i'll come back $500 poorer !
so this is bad !!

but den again, as gerald mentioned, it a once in a lifetime opportunity!
not everyone's so lucky to be chose to represent the varsity team.
and i know, i'm not planning to play badminton after i graduate from med school,
so this is prolly one of the last few overseas tournie i can take part in.

so how, so how?

<3, KerlyBob! @ 12:01 pm |

Thursday, June 07, 2007

todae, i had a really fun and rather tiring dae !
thats becoz we went cycling at pulau ubin !
thats darren, wengo, mimi and i !
we met at 930am, went to pulau ubin at 1030am and cycled all dae till 530pm !
madness right?

we met at the changi village market for breakfast at 930am !
after breakfast, we shopped for lunch and i nearly bought some fishing equipment !
and den we hurried over the changi point ferry terminal, to catch our bum boats to pulau ubin !
the boat ride there is really cheap $2 per person, $2 extra if you bring your own bike !
and its only a 10mins boat ride, so no worries of getting seasick !!
the only sickening thing is that, the bum boat only leaves when there's 12passagers.
so we had to wait for more people to arrive before been able to get to pulau ubin.

we arrive at pulau ubin !!

first stop, to the information kiosk for the island map,

and den to the main village to explore and rent bicycles.

the bicycle rental was very cheap,

we managed to pay $4 per person for the entire dae of rent !!

and of course, dont settle on the first stall you see, they usually offer the worst deal !

and off we are to a fun-filled dae of cycling at pulau ubin !

first, we started on nice tarred road !

thats to customised ourselves to the brakes and gear changing of our bikes.

oh yar, darren was the designated map reader,

and he did a pretty good job at that too !

we managed to cover everything on that island, cycled on every road on that island !

after we got better, we decided to go off-road onto the gravel tracks.

and of course, we cycled to many many lovely beaches and quarry sites.

we also had to ride on the dirt road, which darren loved !

its quite fun lah, but scary especially when going down slope very quickly !

here's the first beach we arrived at, its called the mamam beach.

its pretty small with scary, itch-inducing sandflies !

we also went to the noordin beach where it was filled with cute japanese kids.

and den, we tried to cycle to the tanjong chek jawa.

its supposed to be a pretty nice mangrove area,

but too bad, it was closed for upgrade !

in the end, we cycled to some mangrove area near the kampongs !

we also visited a nursery filled with scary-looking scarecrows !

<3, KerlyBob! @ 12:02 am

halfwae thru, we were tired and thristy.
so we stopped at a little coffeeshop for drinks !
the people on pulau ubin are really smart,
they drive lorries around the island to pick coconuts and den they sell them to us !
oh, the coconut juice was very lovely for a hot sunny dae !

next, we carried on and rode past many many temples !

den suddenly, poor kerly's bicycle gear died on me !

but not to worry, darren the handyman to the rescue !

he managed to fix the gear and chains !!!

oh, but because the fixed bicycle could only go in one gear,

we had to abandon our bicycles and hike up to the quarry !

at the edge of the quarry, there was a BIG warning sign !!

NO TREPASSING ! FINE $1000 !!

at first, we thot "oh no, cannot go into the quarry??"

and the next moment, we saw a hole in the fence,

and so the naughty people decided to crawl thru it and get to the edge of the water !

and lovely birds in the sky !

the water was super duper clear,

we threw rocks into the water and could see it sink all the wae down !
den we settled down at the edge of the water to enjoy the scenery and eat lunch !

oh, this is kekek quarry.

pretty nice, at least nicer that the kelam one !!

after lunch, we went back to exchange for a new bicycle

and den off for more cycling, more quarry sites and mangrove areas !

and finally, we reached this really pretty quarry !!

this the balai quarry !

the best and prettiest quarry of them all !!

again, there was a NO ENTRY sign, and of course, a hole in the fence beside it !

darren and i quickly crawled under it !

and the next moment, mimi spotted an even easier wae to get in,

the fence further up had toppled onto the ground !

oh, isnt this beautiful !!

the water was damn nice and jade-coloured !!

super duper chio !!!

and the view from the top is as lovely as can be !!

oh yar, this is bo liao lah.

i took pics of every road we cycled on, just for fun lah !

oh no, it looks rather scary in this collage !

anywae, jalan durian is my favourite !!

coz that stretch of road really had durian trees and durians scattered on the ground !!!

we were damn scared, dont wanna kena hit by durians while cycling under the durian trees !

oh, thank you for visiting pulua ubin !

have a nice dae, please come back again !

yes yes, i had a really fun dae !

<3, KerlyBob! @ 12:01 am |
