A Train of Very Random Thoughts

Last week I went to see a doctor. An Orthopeadist to be exact.

You see, I have this nagging pain in my left knee whenever I put weight on it or bending it. It started sometime during the weekend but I thought I only pulled a muscle so didn't give it that much mine. But then the pain decided to make itself home. So after 4 days, I finally had enough. I went to see an orthopeadist.

And he told me that he has two hypotheses to why my knee hurt the way it did. One, he thinks that I somehow injured my right lateral ligament. Wait, is that what it's called? Crap, I don't even remember anthing from anatomy lectures back at Uni. What a waste of 1,300+ NZD! Meh, don't worry. I'll google it.

Funny how the term "google" became both a noun and a verb.

Wouldn't it be cool to work at google?

I still think that wikipedia is a great site if you want to know something. But for some reason, no one says "I'll wikipedia it".

Aaah.found it! it's medial collateral ligament of my left knee.

Anyway.. he also suspects that if my medial ligament wasn't the one that got injured then he thinks it might be that I've torn my meniscus. Weird, I don't remember doing anything harsh on my knee. I would surely remember if I did some serious harm to any of my body parts. Wouldn't you?

So anyway, he gave me a bunch of very expensive medications (one makes me very sleepy and I have to take that after every meal!) and told me that if the pain doesn't go away in a week then it means that the injury is surely at my meniscus.

And that is bad. Cery bad.

Good news is.. today is the 6th day and my knee feels perfect! Yes!

Ha! no money for you now Mr. Orthopeadist!

Annnd one more news. Steph & Mon is here! Gosh, I am so happy to see them again. They looked gorgeous! As you can see from the photo below.



Urgh.. the medicine is taking off and affecting my mental state. I better go.

To Be Is To Do

Quote of the day:

"To be is to do"

~Immanuel Kent~

How many times we let our lives pass us by without doing much about it? If we don't do anything to make our lives meaningful and worthwhile, then how can we say that we really lived? That we really be?

Drive

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear

And I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear

Take the wheel and steerIt's driven me before

And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal

But lately I'm beginning to find that I

Should be the one behind the wheel

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

I'll be there

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive

Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive?

It's driven me before

And it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around

But lately I'm beginning to find that

When I drive myself my light is found

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

I'll be there

Would you choose the water over wine

Hold the wheel and drive

Life As An Addict

I am an addict.

Yes, I am.

I am addicted to a Korean series.

Ha Ha.. I had you there didn't I!!

The series is called "Coffee Prince" and it is about a girl who looks like a guy and decided to work as a guy at a coffee shop named "Coffee Prince" where the waiters are all good looking men. The shop is run by a rich playboy that never handle responsibility in his entire life. The trouble is this, she fell in love with him but he thought she is a guy. However, she cannot tell him the truth because she needs to job to get her family out of debt!

Oh my goodness, can you NOT guess what will happen at the end? The plot is SO predictable.

IBut it is still so addictive! I will forever curse the day I channel hop and stopped at Channel 7.. just as the first episode is showing. My goodness. The series is not even that good. The plot is predictable but I guess I have to say that it's more entertaining than Home & Away or Shortland Street. (Uh-Oh..blasphemy!!).

On a good note, Coffee Prince is nothing compared to The Simpson or Futurama. Those are the classics.

Oops, Coffee Prince is on. Gotta go!

A Blog from an Ex-Blogger

OMG.. it's been a while since I write a post. Hmmm.. currently I am sitting infront of my laptop passing time before I head out to work. Quite depressing really. I totally don't feel like working today but then again, who does?

I just came out of my 4-day holiday (more like hibernation really) yesterday and I guess I'm suffering from post-holiday-slash-hibernation-stress-disorder. But thinking optimistically, this means that I only work for 3 days this week. (A short lived optimism, but that'll do for now).
During my hibernation, I have decided that I should get a move on with my thesis. I have left it lying around untouched for absolutely ages and this has gone far far far too long. And no matter how hard I tried to pretend that my thesis doesn't exist but the evil thing still lurks around at the brim of my conciousness. But having decided that I shall continue my thesis brings me to the next decision. Now I have to decide whether to keep my topic on a change in sexual script in victims from sexual assualt. (Complicated huh? I think so too)

Yeah, to keep or not to keep. That is the question.

I've decided NOT to keep.

So today I am going to head to Uni and find my self a new advisor. Because of my idleness my old advisor decided to abandon me but who could blame her? So my itinery today is: work at Ladprow & Ramkamhaeng hospitals, then to Uni to find new advisor and pay thesis fees, then home to start researching for a new topic.

Ain't life grand?

(Gosh, I can't make sarcasm oozing out of that last three words enough)

OH MY WORD...

It has been 3 months since my last post...

I wonder if anybody still visit this blog but it doesn't matter. Blogger is still one of the best procrasination tools out there even though it is slowly out compete by Facebook. I wonder if any CEers beside Abby still keep regular updates on their blogs. Even Sam the Man stops updating his!! Funny that back a few years ago we usually update our blogs multiple times a day. Oh well, I guess real life is slowly squeezing its death grasp on us. Gosh, looking back I can see that uni life is such a cruisy life! With real life presenting never ending projects and pressure, it make me miss Uni where the only stressful times are only during exams.

Anyway.. I'm just posting this just to prove that I can. Now I'm going to have a shower, curl up in bed with Tami Hoag's Night Sin... and perhaps a cup of hot chocolate. MMmmmmm....
