Mummy had a lunch gathering with her friends at a hotel and didn;t come and fetch me from the airport. But here is a note welcoming me back home. It was cute. I loved it. Daddy and Mummy are always there to make me feel loved and smile. This is my fav. photo of Mummy and Daddy. They are trying to imitate me putting the V V sign during photo-taking. Taken on a trip to Penang last X'mas. Love them. :)
Saturday. WingYan & Gabriel's wedding dinner at Fort Canning - The legend. Wishing them Happy Marriage. They are only 3 years older than me! Unbelivable.Where would I be after 3 years? ", Wingyan's was my Secondary 4 St John's senior when I was secondary one. Things just happened. So quickly.
The happy SJAB gals. Seniors that made me grew up. Like how they see me grow, I see them mature in the same way. It has been 8 years. :D People that would always be on my mind.
Today, I went running with Bernie at East Coast Park under the clear blue glazing sky.:)Coming to think of it, it is my first time running along the beachside(usually I just cycle). Enjoyable feeling. :D Didn't manage to take a photo but I copied one from the Internet. This is East Coast Park.
JC friends. Breeks. K box. Photos. Dinner. Catching up with old friends are really a joy. Life's that simple. Issac was filled with seriously interesting NS stories. Buddy Kristin Peh.
Edrei and me. He used to call me "Zi high queen" and I used to call him "Zi High boy" back in JC. I totally forget about it until he reminded me of it today. :P
On my way to Hong Kong International Airport.This is my second time taking a flight back home. Time does flies. I learnt a lot in terms of school work and interpersonal relationship. I made loads of nice friends and professionals and there were always there to share my sweet memories. I was happy that I ended with an excellent grade for Pt Diagnosis and Mgt of M-skel Dysfunction I though I only managed to get a B+ for Fundamentals of Electrophysical Therapy I pract. I would never forget to ask about the cardiac pacemaker of a patient while I do SWD.
My dear sweet room mate. I am only going to see her next year in 2009! She is going over to Austria next year. Sooo going to miss her!!! BIG HUG. I would never forget the times we had. Here is a pic of the you in bed. ---To you:Remember the exercises I taught, do it daily ah!!! Have fun in Austria!
The day before I left for Singapore.We went singing, shopping, adventure land and ended up having Korean buffet. Chung Fung tried to say I LOVE YOU to gracee in a game but he failed. :D It was fun though. :D
On our last day of exam. We went steamboat at You Ma Tai! It was fish fish and more fish. Div, H, Freddie, Ivy, me, Carina plus more more more. Later, we skipped to Lan Kwai Fang for celebration. Never had so much shots in my life. Simply crazy. The middle two are Div's friends from London. Aarti and Hemant.
These are my buddies in school.Karen and Grace! Although we are not in the same group for practicals, we basically eat together during lunch. :)
These are members of our Phyiotherapy Society. They are in charge of our physiotherapy products like jackets and slippers and organising events that boost our spirits and bond us. This poster was distributed during their voting period.
These are my STAR (Sport Training and Rehabilitation) members! Year 1 ,2 and 3 kiddos! THE BASKETBALL sport physio support team! We went having desserts on our last training day. :D Supervisors were out of the pic. Sob.
During the 4 months, me and room mate would eat out sometimes during the weekend! Here are 2 photos. :D At pizza hut At Coral house
The fact that I am not blogging lately showed that I am under great stress. I feel guilt doing other things either than studying or practising for practicals. Deep in me, I understand the need for relaxation and I often try to put it in my schechule. However, after around 1 hours of TV or slacking in front of the computer, I felt that I have wasted a lot of time. "Finding time to relax" seems to have become an excuse from study instead of a neccesity in life. Obviously, it's an indication of stress. Am I expecting too much from myself?
Last Monday, Human Development Across Lifespan(HDL) finally came to end with the handing in of our report. The report was the initiator of a series of blood-sucking events ahead. That Friday before the Monday, I had my first experience staying in school till 12 midnight to compete our report (it was not done by the way). I bought my dinner on the way back to the hostel. It's really amazing the number of crowded noodle stalls that were still in sight at a time near to 1am. Maybe, that's Hong Kongers way of life. I spent that weekend editting the report and studying for the coming examinations. Sometimes, I wonder the reason for my tiredness, I realised that I am spending a lot of time on reports and presentations that some people do not. These people often expect the job of those responsible around. Maybe, that's the way of life. Equilibrium never exits in life and I shouldn't be too angry about it. Often, Mummy mentions that it is fortunate to be able to be the one to serve and do it. I hold on this value in life and it does put me through somehow.
The whole of last week was study and more studying. Sleeping time was greatly reduced to 4 hours at night and intermittent 10 minutes nap. Notes and books were all stacked up on my desk, my eyes were forever twitching ( I don't know how it started) and my brain was fighting to strive on. Adding on to this chaos was dysmenorrhea, sometimes, I just feel like giving up. Classmates and seniors who had gone through the suffer were really a great source of motivation. With people hugging together, strength was ignited. At least, I pulled through last week.
Thursady was the end of our last written exam. It was also my first time screwing up an essay paper in Hong Kong. I forgot the description of the classification of drugs for asthamtic patient, blank on the presentaion for thyrodism and didn;t manage to have enough time to answer the renal question properly. Maybe, I could gurantee the third question for a full mark. Yet, I just totally feel I P.K. the paper. Hope it doesn't pull down so badly for my physiology grade. -- 40%. Please do not break my record of getting lower than a B.
Well, it seems like everybody was not very happy about the paper. To relief our stress, more than half of physiotherapy year 1 student went K-singing. We singed, played cards, played Wee, danced, laughed. Afterwards, my clitch went to the wet market to buy stuffs and took a taxi to SM's house for steamboat. The place was rented by my friend and his gang. A place managed by 6 guys was simply horrible. Rubbish.Dust. Anyway, we had great fun there.Majong.Uno.Dish-washing. haha.
The next day(Firday), we were back to school for revision lesson for PTDX (PT Diagnosis and Management of musculoskeletal I).Practised for EPT till 6pm.
Saturday. Practised EPT (Electrophysical therapy). (8am- 6pm) This pic was taken during one of our EPT lesson. Danny on an IFT (Interferential therapy - suction method) on his low back. :)
Sunday. Practised PTDX. (1pm - 6pm) Studied Maitland and chatted on MSN and blogged till now.
Good night. (3am)
Besides, this is the Heyerobics I am attending lately. The instructor is really charismatic!haha. "D 2 more lessons added on.
I find this really cool! Do other universities response to such news and write a warning and reminding letter to their students? Or are they coerced by the media and Hospital Authority (HA) to do so?

On Sunday - Cheuck Lun's birthday.Went over for dinner. Lost all the heart to play with little cousins cuz HDL exam was on the next day.
On Monday - HDL exams. Discovered that I did 2 very simple questions wrongly. Quite saddened. Went back to hostel to pick up Big Nose's form. Left my wallet in the computer lab. Heyerobics. Nearly fainted doing the workout. I think my stamina had decreased drastically.
On Tuesday - Wasted one hour on mask fitting.Went interviewing Third Aunt. Took a TIN TIN to North Point and ate a sumptuous lunch. Wasted 4 hours on KK's notes which I found it quite useless in the end. Gonna go to the library to photocopy the book tomorrow. Someone asked me some 'dumb' questions that made me lol. Chatted with many people. Did my own part of HDL report. Blogged on religion.
Happinness. Tiredness. Emptiness.
So much things to study ahead that I am beginning to lost my direction. Exam periods in university days are simply plain mental and physical torture. I enjoy everything except this irritating and confusing feelings.
Jia you, my friends. We have eachother to hold on.
It's one in the morning and I have finally gave up studying and doing my report. Getting bored and sicked, I popped by Timothy's blog and saw the many prayers he made to many of his friends out there. I thought of my brother. Mummy had very strong views recently that he is going to Church. She said my brother is turning himself away from her and into the hands of God. Mummy too believes in God, and so do I, but she had some prejuduces over Christianity due to some personal reasons. She more of prefer Buddism and Catholics.
I have no strong comments about my mother and my brother, their reactions to such situation are so like them. I think my brother's debate on the link between Renaissance and Christianity would not have any profound conclusion.
He wrote in response to his friend's view. "Your whole point is that the Renaissance consists of a 'movement away from faith' - and FAITH is CENTRAL to Christianity. If you remove faith, there would be little left for Christians. God doesn't exist in people's hearts if people have no faith - now do you know why I read you as suggesting 'Renaissance humanism is about rejecting the Christian faith' (or in my words, 'rejecting the notion of God')?" With no belief, it comes with no conclusions. Belief allows us to solve problems and gives us reasons to reason.
I believe in the existence of God because I believe God is the spirit and soul of oneself. Therefore, I believe that everyone's God is equal to one God, it's called "My God". When we pray, we seek for hope and that eventually gives us a peace of mind. In the end, we are actually allowing ourselves time to reflect and calm down.
Beliving in a certain religion creates human relationship and bonding which provides one with a sense of common identity. This gives intimacy and love to people which is so important in the pyschological survival in one's life. It's basically a centre for the prevention of illness and diseases. Therefore, I disagree to no religion because ultimately, it does good to oneself.
It is the rituals of one's religion that are main cause of harm. Rituals of all religions actually frigthen me to a certain extent. Can't they just have things like flag raising and a common song and pledge? (Not being offensive)
I actually felt warmth whenever my Christain friends say their prayers for me. It's because I know I am always on their minds and they are all a good friend of mine. This generates security, assurance which all goes back to comforting our own spirits.
We know someone is watching over us. That is our very self. Our very inner heart, inner mind, our god.
With love, I pray for everyone's good health and sore high in their exams.
God Bless.
My very own personal view. Subjected to objections. I remain my neutrality in every religion.
Today is the last lecture for Human Development across Lifespan (HDL) and it might be the last time I would be attending Dr Marco's lecture.Sob.I like him. Obviously, being the last topic, we talked about death. What are our concerns about death? Why do we fear death? What is the exact meaning of "good death"? Different people have varied opinions and there is no absolute question to answer them.
I fear death because my parents are still alive and I have really a lot of undone business in my life. I am a girl with countless of dreams and hopes. And now I am striving too hard to try to draw a step closer to all this dreams. No doubt that I do not want death to grab away all my possible dreams.
Marco is a really nice and strict teacher that I really look upon. He is always in his suit and radiating his smile during lectures. I really like people who are serious and professional when they are at work. :D And I need to congrats him on his recent international award. Well, he told us today that he is quite pessimistic person. Hey, you shouldn't be! Hope you set up a family soon and get retire back in Canada! :D
>>> If I pretend to treat you like a friend, I will get nothing at the end. Yet, I can't let it go.
This seems to happen always and it really makes me THINK. haa. Does it make you think?
P.S. One presentation down today. Carina was so funny acting as the old old lady. :D Physiology report due tomorrow plus Physiology test on 5 whole chapters. So dead. I have been doing the report for consecutive days. It's seriously sickening. I found no meaning in doing so. Well, that's us! We are people that question most often about the meaning in life. haa. Crap I am talking. Off to work.
Yesterday was photo-taking day. A moment to relieve stress from our tight tight schedule. These are people that we hold on together, to survive through the unbearable moments as a Year 1 Physiotherapy student(esp during PTDX tests :P)! Half of our class wif lecturers Grace(centre) and Sharon(extreme right). Kelvin Kwong at the back. :P Sharon is one of my favourite teachers! She is really good; I am seriously going to vote her as the outstanding teacher next year. Support me!
Teachers and Seniors! Nicola and Dora @ the top!Believe it, they have 2 kids each!!! Nice pretty figure still ya. Raymond(yr2) and Anna(yr3) @ the bottom.
Wee girls. VV
These are our guys plus William - our most favourite lab assistants of all. :D Cheers.
Year 2 guys lining up in place. Ah Jun posing to me with his gonio in hand. haha. Fai Fai on his left is smiling so adorably. A row of smart guys. :D
Another interesting pic! Small Ken being squashed! He went to gym everyday just for today! :D Pointing is Carina the sport trainer.
SheungMan, HinHin & Billy. The tall thin guys.
Year 3 going mad. Congrats la! Graduating in one week!
Many are missing in the pics. Sad that they didn't attend this evening session of photo-taking. And many many nice pics are still with Grace! Send me quick!!! :P
Univeristy Life. Craziness in terms of play & work. Die hard.
I spent the whole of this midnight sorting out and enjoying this pics. Time for bed. :D
Physiology Report and Post Sem's presentation to Conquer this weekend. GOOOooooooo....
If I have never immigrated to SG, I might turn out to like shopping more than Sports. I might just have another look like this... ...
My parents and brother had some strong views on these photos. Taken down. haha. :P
When NYP visited HK PolyU Rehabilitation Science Department. 17th March 2008.
RS Scholarship Students Sharing Session. 26 Mar 08. I am the one in pink!:D On my left is Prof. Chetwyn Chan- Chair Professor of Rehabilitation Science. We had quite a good chat and he declared me to be an official foreign student. Charming guy though.
Wedding Exhibition welcoming the Rat year. 08 Mar 08. Theatre Night's out with Elaine!On our way to watch the MASTERS BUILDER at the HK Art's Theatre. We alighted at the wrong bus-stop and hence ended up taking the train to our destination. Silly us. 08 March 08.
Interesting events always happen in school and that's make life so fun amidst all the stress we are in. This particular event happened to my close friend today and hence I am more than happy to record it.
Location: GH016 Time: 1030am
We were all settled down. Test papers for PT Diagnosis and Management of Musculoskeletal were all prepared in front of everyone. The room was closed to silent as we waited for our lecturer, Stephanie, to commerce the exam.
"Everyone is here?" "Nope, there is still two more that is not here."
Location:GH016 Time: 1035am
Everyone stared at the door, waiting impatiently for the two to arrive. Some start to grow reckless and started turning and moving about. Some just sat still, frozen. We were all quite nervous for this test. It was well-known to be difficult.
Location:GH016 Time: 1040am
There was a shadow at the door. Finally, the somebody had arrived! All of us started making the "Booo..." sound. BUT... ... Strolling in was Grace and KY... haha...
Laughter filled the room. We clapped like we were welcoming a pair of new bride and broom. At that instant moment, they were forgiven. The tense atmosphere was broken.
Rumours about the two of them were spreading throughout this few months and they were always caught together.
KY obviously like Grace but Grace never seems to want to accept him. "Afraid of a better future, a better encounter?" "We are just very very very good friends?" Confusion, confusion,confusion.
I think guys including my brother hates that a lot. lol.
Hope there is a nice ending.
I think my test did go well today except for a few questions that I am really really unsure of. I personally feel that it was better than ITD exam yesterday.(Diagree by many!!!)
3 more reports, 1 more presentations, 1 more test before my final exams 3 weeks later. Jia you!
On MSN
Bernie sent me the video of this strong strong man (descibed by him). Well, maybe he knows I like it! haha. That guy in the video is indeed charismatic, I seriously feel that he should be recruited by the Holloywood. A real spiderman in action. Have a look @
P.S. (in medicine) Pain is both sensory and emotional.
Allodynia (other pain): a painful response to a usually non-painful stimulus and can be either static or mechanical. :P Sth to note when treating our patients or close kins.
>You must say things like dysdiadakokinesia; You can't say things like the patient's unable to clap their hands quickly together while turning one over and over and over and over and over and over Otherwise they'd know what you meant; >So you use Latin words instead; >So the buggers will never discover the meaning behind all the stuff that you said.
>You must say things like micturate, defecate, intercourse; You can't say things like pissing and shitting and fuck Although it's the same; Although it's a pain; >You have to use the Latin name. >Like haematuria and steatorrhea; Hepatic and splenic; >Iatrogenic.
>But on the other hand if they understand the phrases that you say; >Just confuse and bemuse by using eponymous names; >Like Hunters and Ehlers-Danlos, Hurlers and Turners and Brown-Sequard.
>And if they understand that, acronyms are twice as hard; >You need a BCG, ECG, ECT, EEG, PET, CBT, HRT
>Avoid saying nutcase and mental and lunatic, fruitcake and screwy and mad; >Terms like bipolar and frank schizophrenia tend not to go down so bad.
>So these are the words that are used; >But surgeons of course are excused; We can't have them getting confused!
I seriously love this song! By now, I guess I have actually listened to it for over ten times. It just makes me smile for no apparent reason. Haha. I am also astonished about the amount of words that I actually know from this video. See how one year of PT training plus a strong biology background can do to your brain capacity! What’s important is that it allowed me to enjoy this video! I’m mad. Out of interest, I have decided to find out the meanings that I am unsure of. :P

It's 0300 am in the morning! I have finally finished revising Trauma and Disease in the coming 7 hours time.
I have been posted to Prince of Wales Hospital (inpatient) for my first clinical this coming July! Hope that it's going to be memorable! I am going to spend my 20th Birthday there.

It is going to be 20 years since I was born. How scary! 1/4 or 1/3 of my life is gone... ...
Benjamin actually sent me this! :), I think it's beacuse the OT had actually done a very good job in setting up equipments for his functional activities at home.
Genus Varus(bow-leggedness). 6 years post surgery Tendon Achilles rupture. Poor skin conditions. Dry skin. Open wound.
On interview he told me that the doctor has removed his Achilles Tendon.
I didn't believed at first as he would stil plantarflex, even with a muscle strength of Grade 4.
On examination, I notice the contour of the gastrocnemis is tilted to the medial side and hence I suspect that it has been inserted into his tibialis posterior which in turn inserts into his cuneiform and metatarsals.
The muscle bulk of his gastrocnemius is significantly larger on his injuried side. This might be due to the heavy loading demanded on the muscle during daily activities. The direction of the muscle fibres are prone to sustain a greater resultant force during plantar flexion.
His gait pattern is also deviated from norm. He has significantly reduced plantar flexion of foot during toe-off phase. He basically lift off his whole leg during lift off. He does so by external rotating his hip.
He also have difficulties doing single leg standing which might indicate problem in balance.
Overall Posture: Increase in thoracic kyphosis leads to his occassional back pain.
General health: Hypertension. Controlled by medication.
Well, I really need to praise him on his diet for now! He eats more healthy food than me. :P Thanks for lending me your NDS.
Do provide me some feedback on the case if you are in any case, a PT or medicine student. :P
True about me?:D:D:D I am a General! A warrior! 劉曉昕 的上輩子是 趙國 人，無雙 的 將軍 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today can be considered a day of relaxation. To celebrate on receivingmy scholarship, I treated my friends to lunch today. We had fun chatting and gossiping. Searched for present and cake to celebrate for my Rm mate's birthday before I wentback to the hostel and fell asleep for 1.5 hours. Dinner.Schoolwork.And celebration!!!:D:D:D
Me, Elaine and her birthday cake! Sang the birthday song with light dim and music at the background.A simple and happy birthday.
My gal gang @ our school canteen. my treat. :D SheungMan treated us gal fries - he said it was his little secret?!?!
Words out of my mind.Ignore the grammar & structure. Our brain is not that perfect.
This weekend, I have been occupied by my presentation on Physiotherapy Diagnosis and Management of Musculoskeletal Dysfunction. Our group was supposed to be the strongest of all as it consists of members of very high GPA scores. I thought I had finally found better group mates this time. Yet, things didn’t go as I thought it would be. There were a total of 3 guys and 2 girls. Each of us responsibility completed our own part, yet, when we compiled the information together, Yoyo and me felt that it was not very coherent. We had very different opinions and views from the guys. They thought that the slides were perfect. I was so lethargic that day that I gave up the argument.
That night, we rushed to find our professor, Stepanie. I must really thank her that day. She risked her computer’s life by stuffing m y thumb drive into her computer (well, she has a phobia of getting infected from viruses from student’s thumb drive). She even treated us sweets upon hearing that we had not even eaten at the moment of time. It was 0830pm. It was my extra curriculum, STARS, afterwards. On dismissal, our seniors gathered us for dessert. Well, I didn’t eat until 0000 that day. To my anger, McDonald’s gave me the wrong burger and I didn’t discover it after I was back in my hostel.
One of my group mates was too busy with his tuition centre and the other 2 guys fell sick. So, I was left with Yoyo to hang on to. Within 2 consecutive days, I seek help from everywhere I could get, asking every senior I know for bits and pieces of information. We gathered mountains of books on the library table and worked out our presentation once and again. It was hard work. There was a time when our brain protested and we just stared at the screen for minutes before we commerce again.
It was heartfelt to hear that our Presentation went well today except being slightly overtime. Job well done! A little pad on my own shoulder. There was commotion over my presentation skills being so… “Cool”. Thanks to all the training by MJC and SJAB. It does do me good or maybe excellent.
After the presentation, I and Yoyo and Big nose stayed behind to listen to the feedback given by Nicola. At the moment of time, I was quite disheartened about the fact the other two didn’t even bother to stay behind or even suggest on a gathering. I don’t know whether I am really emotional or what… … Yet, it somehow leads me to compare all the other guys I have worked with and met in the past. Maybe, in my heart, I have very high expectation of guys.
In Singapore, the guys I mix with have a very high sense of responsibility and they offer help even when I turn them down. I find no problem expressing my feelings to them and their suggestions given are often consoling and comforting. Maybe, I have not spent even time with the guys here. Or am I building a wall around myself? People are seeing me as a BIG sister for some reasons; I am not getting use to this. Or is it the cultural different they cause this to happen?
Daddy and Mummy is enjoying themselves in Japan! Hope they have fun!
5 more assignments and 1 more presentation with tests in the midst and final exams eventually. All to be done in 1.5 months!It can be done and it will be done.
Brother Goat told me his love story today. It was pretty saddening but interesting. He had been stuck in a state of confusion for doing something he considered stupid. I believe that the girl is also in a confusion on what she is doing. But Brother Goat had given up and hence, the story ends at such. Once I told a guy I like him and he said the same thing too. But from the day onwards, we only got the chance to see eachother once a year. By the way, he got a girlfriend now. Well, it's an easy job for him. He is a really really nice guy. Someone who really melted my heart for the first time. Sometimes, I think he is too good for me too. He treasures love a lot. All the best for him and gf. :D You have my blessings.
Before I left Singapore, I have a crush on someone. A crush that I think he knows he is my crush. A crush that has a chance of liking me back. That is the reason why I couldn't put him off my mind until now. His msn window pops up on my screen once in a while and I am still happy about it although he often gives dead replies to the conversation. He likes to say "icic" and "haa". Or is it that he doesn't know how to respond? My friends have made many comments about him but the problem is that my heart just do not subside to comments so easily. I hate myself for liking people that I am afraid to love. I need guidance and words of confirmation to open my heart completely. Maybe, that's the reason I consider myself to have only one or two BEST buddies in school (although I'm very sociable and has a lot of friends). These buddies are people whom I would care deeply about. I can throw myself out if you are in danger. I show deep empathy for people, especially for those I care about. Yet, I understand the need to give people personal space. Ask the buddies around me.
I watch a lot a lot of dramatic show on romatic love; they are all bitter but sweet. I wish to have one of my own. One with a happy ending for the audience to end with a smile. My wish is to have a guy to guide me into his arms with his heart. I wish Brother Goat has some similar thing in mind- to have a girl of his type to accept his heart.
If all fails, we'll be hugging eachother till we're old and Daddy will not be too happy about it. haha.
Uncle Dennis treated me to dinner at the top of the Penisular Hotel - The Felix. (One of the world-class restaurants in HK!) We even saw 李嘉欣 having cocktail. This is their bar at the corner. The view from the toilet. There is actually only one huge sink in the toilet and there will be a lady serving you toilet after you wash your hand.
Everywhere I go all the places that I've been Every smile is a new horizon on a land I've never seen There are people around the world - different faces different names But there's one true emotion that reminds me we're the same... Let's talk about love
From the laughter of a child to the tears of a grown man There's a thread that runs right through us all and helps us understand As subtle as a breeze - that fans a flicker to a flame From the very first sweet melody to the very last refrain...
Let's talk about love Let's talk about us Let's talk about life Let's talk about trust Let's talk about love
It's the king of all who live and the queen of good hearts It's the ace you may keep up your sleeve - till the name is all but lost As deep as any sea - with the rage of any storm But as gentle as a falling leave on any autumn morn...
Let's talk about love - it's all we're needin' Let's talk about us - it's the air we're breathin' Let's talk about life - I wanna know you Let's talk about trust - and I wanna show you Let's talk about love
"But there's one true emotion that reminds me we're the same..." The meaning of love is so vague. How do we love someone? My mum has been talking about it very often lately. To some degree, we have been truly hurt by our own definition and presentation of love. Can someone tell me why is this happening? I always thought that loving someone is innate. Or is it something that need to be nutured? I am utterly confused. What is love? What is there to talk about love?
I am seriously tired by my never-ending schedule. 7 work week for 3 months. ahh. Hold on.
