I saw xanthelasmata for the first time in a patient coming to the pharmacy to buy Panadol. It's hard to not look at it when you're going oooh oooh it's the same as the ones in the textbooks!!

And using the torch for the first time I thought I would check out the insides of my nostrils (hey, it was the puppy that first put the idea in my head when he was doing his CR run!). Then I thought it would be cool to do an arc reflex on my eyes. Never really got around to doing them when I saw the 'hole' in my eye :S! Left iris first. Ho hum ho hum pupil shrank. Right iris next. Hold on. What the heck is this little tear there in the lateral side of my iris??! OR is it?? Shine from all angles. Hm.... there this shadow thingy that changes position like a shadow. The heck? I have a hole in my right iris?? I sense..... freak genes! LOL!

And talking about that, I have finally confirmed that my nanny is the one responsible for my short munted nails. T_T cry...! Gaa... no wonder they were heaps uncomfortable after every time nana chopped them. Gaa.... bad nanny lol!

Me got pot of flowers from puppy too! ^^ Kwee! Me like orange daisies! Me decided roses aren't that bad after all though they look more mysterious than cheerful :)! Kwee! I can't wait to get some sort of semi-permanent place to stay in where I can have at least a pot plant. Hopefully a lemon or an orange plant. Lime would be great too :D!

Got the case history done now. Lauren was so sweet to look it over twice for me, first when it was half done. ^^ Swoon... And now on my project presentation. Hope to get it done within the next few days and then start on micro and maybe have a quick look through path or something. YUS! Aja! Aja!

On the cardioresp run now, four more weeks to go before it's the holidays.... assuming I pass of course *ahem*.... though I'm wondering if I would rather repeat a year than stay back for summer to redo a run?? :S

Halfway through or so through my case history now. The only painful part would be having to look through the papers required to do a critical appraisal or what not. Ugh. I really dislike having to look up papers and what not. Will have to start on the stuff for the presentation soon too otherwise I'm going to die come end of the run.

Gotta study for signs and symptoms test this coming Friday and also for Haematology that is on Thurs. Sigh. I wonder how much Haem has stayed back in my brain since I last finished going through it once? Will have to run through it again.

And the results from Gen Med are back. I've passed the run with .... a pass?? But still, it's a YUS!!! (e just doesn't cut it as cool enough unfortunately). And potential distinction for my case presentation too. Lol!

Haven't seen Dr Epton yet. He was supposed to take us for our cardioresp mentoring session but is away. Sigh. Why can't he be away during the final osce? That would be much much preferable. Hopefully I get the other combo where I won't have to see him in the osce, hah.

While at the pharmacy today I kept itching wanting to use the bp monitor again. I'm still not too happy about my last two readings. Wtf man... my long case patient who just had an MI has a bp waaaay better than mine. People eating McD all the time have bp's that are better too. Perhaps I should have a try on my other arm or listen to my renal vessels? Suddenly I feel like I'm like one of those lollies Carina brings back from Levin where the packaging is great but contains only two instead of the three lollies it's supposed to. Appears ok, but slightly defective. Not that the two lollies are any less yummy though. Heh.

Shit, why am I even worried? I've got about 10+ years before I need to worry about it. Meh.

Today the girls next door had their raya celebration. Yummy. Hah, I got to have delish rendang and lots of other stuff! Nyah nyah nyah to the bola! :P
