i have a small skin abcess. it's 0.5 X 0.5 cm. and it's due to an infected hair follicle. it's tender, red, and deep. and it's ugly. i complain for pure cosmesis purposes.
in other news, today i saw some really nasty photos of fungating breasts. and now i am a massive supporter of breast awareness month, which happens to be in october.

into my second week at ttsh. slowly settling in. i like it so far, but there are the good days and the bad. ttsh doesn't quite have that homely feel yet, perhaps its cos we dont have things like a student's lounge, or free access to gyms and badminton courts - something cgh offers (i'm just being fussy and spoilt, i realise that. but i'm learning how to appreciate other things about ttsh - though memories thus far have been purely academic.
in other news i found a potential new cofm patient to do my project on, so happiness!

went climbing with a few of the girls last tuesday, and ended it with a run (but missed meef's company home cos of that! :/). long time since i climbed, long time since i ran, and it felt good to do them both in good company. my climbing stamina/skills have massively deteriorated.
also went swimming last week. felt comfortable. i need to exercise more. met up with some of the climbers for dinner on friday - hoorah! (btw don't sit in the alley of the tauhuay stall at short street, unless you don't mind being in close proximity with evil cockroaches.)

my mom is visiting in the uk - back in another week, and people have left to the states (becoming a familiar feeling). my end-of-posting test was traumatic, but i've recovered from that.....
and life goes on!
i'm growing fat.

and on a very happy note, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOBS (:
and ANDEE i hope you had an excellent 21st two days ago!!!! supper soon with the Am? :)

you're right saus.
i think it's hard for us to know what we're really getting ourselves into, even now. and just because the going gets tough sometimes, that doesn't mean we're not cut out for something.
what would university be without challenge right?
well i hope so anyway.

anyway, i've found new inspiration! for now that shall be my drive.
