Had Dinner in the Restaurant that night.
Dressed up for dinner that night, which resulted in my clothes being stolen.
I know, I'm feeding you with bits and pieces, but it'll soon become clear.

On entering ...

See where I got the whistles and party poppers for the kids that night?

Ginger Stir-Fry Venison

Thai Style Chicken

Simple Garlic Vege

Tofu with mushrooms. I'm a sucker for them both.

Curry Squid with aubergine

Isn't Santa Claus suppose to be... white?

19

A belated post on how I celebrated my 19th birthday!

I was blessed to be able to go back home for Christmas and my Birthday.
I enjoyed every moment of it.
My apologies to those that did not know I went back,
and to those who I did not have enough time to meet up with.

Checked in the hotel in the morning.
Lazed a while then headed for lunch.
Had a buffet in the hotel itself.

Salad that sis made

I liked the Blueberry Mousse Cake

Lunch was really good. Hotel was not. I did not mention the name of this hotel because the service and everything was soo terrible. I might have a post juts on it.

Exams

First exam since I've been here.
It's more of a trial actually, doesn't really count.
Nevertheless I should pass/do well since I'm paying so much to be here.
Only one more to go, after finishing 3 papers.
Thank God for helping me once again.
Truly by His grace, not my own strength.

See, I was back in Malaysia enjoying food during my winter break.to
Hence studies were very much limited.
I honestly only prepared for my OSCE, which is a practical exam.
It's really a first for me, preparing for practical and completely ignoring written papers.
Really had to trust God, and depend on Him.
When I reached back to Liverpool, I decided to just study for PP, PPD and IGS and put the most important bit of S&F( Structure and Function, which is what medicine is all about actually) behind.
I realised that I could not squeeze 3 months work of the entire body to 3 days, so why not focus on the other areas. I also went through the radio graphs.

So, I went for the exams on Monday.
Paper 2 was entirely on PP, PPD and IGS, as it should be.
Paper 1 was 1/4 radiographs, which I think I did well, 1/4 PP, which I think I did ok,
1/4 some sort of S&F which I could do and only 1/4 that I completely flopped.
I guessed that 1/4 was unpredicted and I would not have studied for that area even if I cramped in S&F. So it was worth while in the end.

Thank You God.
I am gonna put in more effort after exams though, as seen in the last post!
