Random thoughts

Lunches for me are usually quick fixes. Like a slice of bread with peanut butter, or a simple bowl of oatmeal, or sometimes yogurt plus chocolate soy milk, or dinner leftovers. It is simply to big a hassle to cook a hearty lunch, not with my current nerd schedule at least. 

Brown rice + Ayam panggang + mushroom and vege + rootbeer.

Looks good doesn't it. This particular day's lunch was very delicious simply because there was too much leftovers from dinner the previous night. Simply made my girly day, but also put me into a post-prandial coma afterthat. Ended up feeling guilt ridden for napping too long and not studying. Eesh.

My room has got many new occupants now. My Logitech speakers arrived, bringing nice surround symphony to my ears. I also bought a book, written by an Asian Anesthesiologist, who is also mother of two children and wife to another physician husband. Should be an interesting read. Got a couple more doctor-ish story books to read too. All waiting for my post-step2 four day vacation. 

Apart from that, my room, or rather the entire Martin building is infested with millipedes! I found 7 and a half of them crawling around. Freaking eww-ey.  (why half? because I only see a dead tail, but without the head). 

Cracked my beloved AnnaSui imitation mirror too. Sigh. I was pretty upset when it broke, simply because it was my only hand held mirror, and it means seven years of badluck.

Felt a lot better when mom told me the bad luck thing is bullshit. Instead, it means.  落地开花富贵荣华. (drop on floor, open flower, prosperous and good luck -- literal translation).

I am terrible at waking up and getting work done in the mornings. Especially when everyone is at work, and I am the only one at home, no motivation to do anything. Always end up sleeping/wasting the morning away. 

But I forced myself one day to walk to a coffee shop to enjoy the summer breeze and cramp in some genitourinary knowledge. To my surprised, it was very therapeutic indeed. Saw so many cute doggies, patted one as well. Met a couple small babies in their prams with their power-mommies getting their coffee fix amidst doing their daily chores. And I finished my GU chapter within 2 hours. That was pretty quick. 

My coffee, my scone, and my source of knowledge.

And can I give a huge shoutout to everyone : GOOD LUCK FOR STEP 2CK and CS!
Happy that mine is finally over.
