tired..think I haven't quite caught up with my lost sleep from the plane ride..heh no thanks to harry potter..but all's good. other than falling asleep in classes..

I've had a couple of scary teachers so far this semester..haha we started off with this really intense lecturer who was all for infection control..she spent good time drilling into us the importance of washing our hands and how proper washing techniques would save our lives and our patients..she then started passing alcohol desanitizers around the lecture theatre and urging us to clean our hands the proper way..haha I guess her ultimate message got through to us.."Washing your hands will SAVE YOUR LIFE."

Then today's tutor was really anal about punctuality and respecting the formality of class. Thank goodness I made in on time..After I had signed in and taken my seat, he started going on about how he would in the future throw out any student more than 5minutes late..and then he reprimanded a couple of girls for drinking water! saying that class is not a picnic. then at this moment some students started streaming in behind him late..one of them even wielding an ice-cream; another slurping a huge soft drink! I was so scared for them :p I am gonna bold this tutor's name in any of my future classes...I'm too scared to be late :(

scary tutors aside..clinics and tuts have been interesting..had early pregnancy clinic this morning at 730..and ended the day in the delivery suite at 8pm!I didn't get to see any deliveries..but I did get to see many speculums and ultrasounds:) and it was sad cos most of the women coming into the early pregnancy clinic are referred to us cos they're suspected of having miscarriages..I think being told that you've just miscarriaged is one of the worse things you have to hear :(

anyway..feeling sleeping now but I think I'm still high on sugar..just had ice cream with my sister then a late-night beach outing:) used to go there alot more often..but less so in the last year..I suddenly remember how pretty the sky there looks at night..
