heh its mid-sem break next week:) but i've just got to get my assignment out of the way first before i can enjoy my break..

had an interesting lecture this morning..the tutor was going on and on about how we shouldn't take everything at face value, and he was teaching us his "unorthodox" methods of physical examination..and he told us that whatever he was teaching us today should not leave the room..cos if we did these things during our exams we would be failed immediately. but what he was teaching us somehow seemed so right at the time. i was wondering if it was perhaps just me..i do tend to be easily swayed. haha but i was talking to louisa afterwards and we came to the conclusion that some of his beliefs, though contrary to the popular medical thinkings, really do make much more sense. oh well. we will see in the next few years:)

its not the first i've heard of this happening, so i don't know why i felt surprised when i knew about it. but then it somehow feels closer to home this time around. maybe cos i always had this perfect picture painted in my head, but then i guess i should have known how different reality is..the thing about being unhappy..i think its ironic, but the easiest thing to do when you're unhappy is to pretend that everything is fine. its so easy to just put a smile on your face and tell people that you're alright. its hardest when you're by yourself and you're forced to think about everything.

but then, even the most wonderful of things need change right? its like music. maybe you can hold on to a musical note forever, but then it wouldn't sound like much by itself. its the change in musical notes and dynamics that bring about that incredible thing we call music:)
