thoughts

Whenever we are lonely, we will think of home. It is a place where we can be ourselves. Sometimes, I wonder whether this dramatic life I have in Hong Kong is merely an illusion or a major turning point in my life.

From the moment I stepped in this land of wonder, unprecedented events started to happen in my life. I accomplished things that I never believed that it would have happened.

In 2007 and 2008, academic studies and extra-curriculum activities become a major part of my life. I spent so much time studying and integrating into this environment. I come to succeed so well -- scoring straight As, winning medals, piling up records in my CV and knowing many people around me. Frankly, I had not totally get use to this lifestyle till I was Year 02. I used to tear quite a lot when I was stressed and despaired and they were the times that I wished I was not that independent.

In 2009, I begin to fall in love and it was another lifestyle change. I spent more times indulging in my love affairs rather than doing my usual routine. Yet, I believe that this is one of the most wondrous things that had ever happen in my life and had brought to me tremendous happiness. However, there is always two sides to a coin especially in a situation like mine.

Graduation would be another lifestyle change. My career, my love life and my family life. I am seriously not well-prepared and this has made me fear, troubled and de-motivated. I should learn to think more of the positive sides of things. To stay strong.

一步一步走在空蕩的街
冷風中開始凝結我的淚　它已經一點一點
淚濕了太多想念　是不是

讓心痛著的感覺
習慣不成眠　我不需要安慰　不想停歇

有時候　只是想讓自己冷靜一點
有時候　只是想讓自己勇敢一點
怎麼料想我會離不開你的身邊

Graduation will be another turning point and adaptation.
2 years later, I will be facing another turning point.
Frankly, I have predicted loads of chest pain and tear among these years. All the more, I need to stay strong. Life is full of challenge. Just remember, "smiles always!"


Let's me. Loved always.
I need to stay happy! :)

P.S. Maybe, I should be home packing.

><

I just wish to do the things I like but life is just full of limitations. I hate that.

Why can't my brain remember things that is happening in my brain?
Why can't my heart understand the importance of understanding the heart?

It is ridiculous!

I am over-frustrated.

My amygdala is now making me aggressive.

Recently

I need to admit the fact that I am really weak in cardiology and neurology. The problem lies with my lack of interest in such areas. I can only relate physiotherapy with manual physical contact. Nevertheless, I need to be more stimulated to get through this 6 weeks of placement. How I wish I was still in an outpatient setting...

The place was really beautiful but it lacks the warmth from the local citizens. Maybe, Taiwan or Japan is a better choice for complete relaxation.

A happy & fruitful experience

Snapping hip syndrome

Snapping Hip Syndrome

Snapping Hip Syndrome is a clinical entity that causes pain and snapping in the hip joint. There are several known causes, the most common being the iliotibial band snapping over the greater trochanter. It can also be caused by snapping of the iliopsoas tendon over the iliopectineal line, the iliofemoral ligaments over the femoral head, the long head of the biceps femoris tendon over the ischial tuberosity, as well as by certain intra-articular pathology.

The most common cause of snapping hip is when the iliotibial band slides over the greater trochanter. This is common in ballet dancers and runners. The gluteal muscles can also make a snapping sound as they go over the greater trochanter. The psoas tendon also causes snapping hip as it passes over the hip joint, producing pain with hip flexion. The question to ask is why is this happening? The psoas tendon is in the front of the hip joint, the gluteal muscles are over the hip joint, and the iliotibial band (tensor fascia lata) is on the side of the hip joint, yet all of these structures are considered part of the problem? We don't think so! The typical approach to Snapping Hip Syndrome is to blame it on overtraining and tight muscles. So anti-inflammatories and cortisone shots are given and the athlete must immediately stop training. Some people get better, some do not. The ones who avoid surgery get better. During surgery the tendons that are "tight" are lengthened. Most do not do well after this surgery. There must be a better way.

Hip joint ligament weakness causes excessive movement of the hip joint. Athletic events put tremendous strains on the hip joint, especially those sports that involve collisions. Even sports such as running put 4.5 to 5 times the body weight through the joint with each step. It would make sense that a long distance runner would eventually develop laxity in the hip joint over the years. This ligament weakness in the hip would cause excessive movement of the hip and thus the greater trochanter, since they are connected. This excessive movement of the greater trochanter would then encroach on the iliotibial band or gluteal muscles, causing a snapping sound. If the hip joint laxity caused the hip to move forward it would encroach on the psoas muscle, causing hip snapping with movement of this muscle (hip flexion). It is easier to explain Snapping Hip Syndrome as one hip problem versus three separate muscle problems. This also explains the dramatic results seen with treating Snapping Hip Syndrome with Prolotherapy. Prolotherapy is our treatment of choice for Snapping Hip Syndrome because it gets at the root cause of the problem, which is hip ligament laxity. Prolotherapy to the posterior hip capsule and ischiofemoral ligaments generally resolves the problem if the condition involves snapping of the iliotibial band or gluteal muscles, because posterior hip laxity is involved in these conditions. In psoas-muscle-related Snapping Hip Syndrome, the hip joint is moving anteriorly, encroaching on the muscle. Prolotherapy to the anterior hip ligaments, namely the iliofemoral ligament (Y ligament of Bigelow), will tighten the joint and stop the anterior protrusion of the hip. Prolotherapy is extremely effective at permanently resolving Snapping Hip Syndrome because it repairs the underlying etiology of the problem, hip ligament laxity.

true?
prolotherapy?
help me?

what is my problem....
1.ligament laxity
2. structural defects
3. ITB tightness

今天

今天，是开心的一天， 是值得庆祝的一天。

可是，过后， 心情有点儿沉重。

心， 有点儿怪怪的。

很想逃避的感觉。

也许知道原因， 但脑袋不想去想。

就让心去感觉这莫名其妙的乱， 自己疗伤吧。

希望身边关心的人都能健健康康， 快快乐乐。

神保佑。

changes

Changes are always inevitable. We must learn to treasure the present and look into the future. Do not blame others or yourself for being not the same as before because people changes. You are born in one split second but you can also be dead in one split second. Changes occur all around us and we can never predict the next thing that would happen.

Treasure the fact that you are born healthy.
Treasure the fact that you can breath, you can walk and you can eat.
Treasure the fact that there is people out there caring for you.

It's alright that you couldn't get the things want in life as long as you are alive. It's because changes happen and you will never know the miracle that would happen to you in the next split second.

Maybe, I am not that mature and grown-up.

I am full of incapability in all areas of my life.

I am sorry for all the wrong-doings.

Things that have cast upon disappointment and worries.

And to repay for my mistakes.

I shall remain optimistic in life.

To conquer my weakness.

And rekindle the bravery that is buried deep inside me.

God bless.


P.S. It's nice seeing all your smiles today.

Back...

明天回港了。。。

心情有点复杂。。。

今次回港。。。

好像真的会离开很久。。。

有点不舍。。。

但知道自己已长大。。。

也很待期看到男朋友。。。

人， 就是充满着矛盾。。。

最重要就是要懂得珍惜身边所有的一切。。。

This holiday

After reading travel posts written by my boyfriend, many thoughts kept running through my mind. I have always wanted to go on long-distance travel this holiday but due to the many factors involved, I had chosen to stay at home. Three weeks of travelling to the UK and Europe last summer was indeed unbelievably memorable and captivating. Travelling alone during the daytime was really a once-in-a-lifetime experience, yet, at some points in time, I long for company. I long for someone walking beside me, to share and remember this lovely trip. There was a time I really wanted to call up this French guy whom I met on the street and agree to his kind invitation to bring me around. Yet, in order to protect myself, I dropped the idea and continued to travel in a land that I had never explored.

From then, I fell in love with the parks, the weather, the mesmerising musicals, the beautiful countryside and those grand castles where kings and queens once stood. Nature, music and the ancient history had embraced my soul in the day and as I waited for the night, I had the pleasant company of my brother’s friend. For the first time, I navigated the roads alone. For the first time, I got lost in a quiet town alone. For the first time, I climbed up a castle alone. For the first time, I lay in a park alone. For the first time, I fed myself banana for dinner. For the first time, some stranger said that he liked me and tried to hold my hand.

I liked the experience travelling alone but when I was with my brother or his friend, I was much happier. I could smile, shout and share my happiness with them. I couldn’t be doing that alone. I realised I longed for company during my travel and it is with people whom I like, with people whom are really deep in my heart.

Therefore, I didn’t regret not spending time travelling this holiday. The reason is simple, people whom I long to travel with are all busy at work. I missed the time travelling with them due to a mandatory placement I need to attend in June but it is alright as long as I know everybody I love is happy.

This holiday, I have learnt to let go of some things, to accept the limitations and to suppress some of my feelings and fight for the things I want in life. To love is to sacrifice and to compromise. I need to remind myself that I am a big girl now and I hold the responsibility to stay strong and to be able to make judgments all by myself.

Special Thanks for all my love ones who had shaped me to whom I am today. This goes especially to my parents and my dearest brother. Family is the most treasured thing in my life and I hope I can continue this legacy of a strong and loving family.
