hello! :)

went for my lasik 4th review yesterday. its almost a year since my op, but there's still some degree left. L50, R75. i asked if it is possible for it to go down to zero, and she said not likely. so i'll be doing the enhancement surgery, but only for my right eye. the left one, he said, was too little to be corrected. spent a long time sitting in the clinic and doing part of the pre-surgery evaluation again, checking cornea thickness, degree etc. will be having my surgery next monday at night. and bcos of e eyedrop to dilate my pupil for the evaluation, which was put 4 times bcos my pupil refuses to dilate, today my sight is still a little blurry when looking at words. i know i mus take good care of them, bcos tehy are very important. musnt read so many storybooks or look at the comp without letting it rest. to my eyes: "xing ku ni le! dui bu qi!"

had wanted to meet linfang for a meal yday but last min told her i couldn't make it bcos of the evaluation. i'm sorry lf, and meet up soon! :)

i had wanted to talk to someone to help me sort it out. but after a while i thought its still me who knows myself the best. so i'm writing it down, and hoping that doing so will help me come to a decision.

during the past few days i haven't had much luck with job hunting, but i got a call from e agency today, telling me she will apply to a specific company for me, and gave me the company details, working hours, pay rate etc. i'm happy bcos i'm finally making some progress, though its not yet confirmed. but just now i got another call from e same agency asking for an interview before considering me for a position in the healthcare industry. pay may be lower, i may need to spend more on tpt, but.. i like it. i don't know why i feel this way, only that i have always wanted to work in a hospital setting. then i ask myself, how can i know that i like it when i've never had any experience in it? i seem to feel that i just do.. although i know its not a very happy place to be. i guess the reason for my feeling this way is bcos i have always wanted a healthcare-related occupation for myself. but i can't say so now, bcos its me who's chosen to give it up when i chose accounting instead. perhaps in my heart, i'm trying to find something in between, to work in a healthcare setting. do i, should i turn towards what i like rather than what pays better.. i would like to, but i'm afraid that to do so i may not be able to save up as much for my exchange. its bcos i need the money... but i want to be happy too. maybe i'm too greedy afterall.

went to visit the residents today. its been a long few weeks since i last went bcos of the exams. very happy to see and talk to them :)

smtimes i think that i am a very selfish person. i always think about myself first before anyone else. like visiting the residents during term time, thinking i don't have any time left for them, school's already busy, and telling myself perhaps i should skip the week's session. i wish i weren't like that and wouldn't think that way, because it makes me a lousy person.

i want to try to be a better person, and i hope i can be. jiayou jiaxin!

i'm here again.:)

i just thought of some things that have helped in pushing me forward in prepping for e exams that have ended, that i told myself i'll write here so i won't forget. i found some good music that accompanied me as i studied, some of whom i've not heard before. here are some good albums and beautiful songs that may not be new but are worth listening:

'Safe In a Crazy World' and 'Fly Away' albums by Corrinne May
Songs: Fly Away, Everything In Its Time
her songs are soothing and can stir up a lot of emotions, happy or unhappy. a little religious, but beautiful.:)

'Fearless' album by Taylor Swift
her music is one that i don't get tired of no matter how many times i listen. steady tempo that helps me stay awake when mugging.

'For(n)ever', 'Every Man for Himself' and 'The Reason' albums by Hoobastank
rock music that's loud, good for staying awake during mugging too, haha. i never used to like the rock genre b4, but i do now!

'Poetry of the Day After' album by Mayday
rock too, but their music makes me feel very good and happy. :D

theere are several more singers and their albums i'll just mention by name.
Park Hyo-Shin's 'The Breeze of Sea' and 'Soul Tree'
David Tao's 'Opus 69'
Jay Chou's 'Capricorn'
Ronan Keating's 'The Best of Ronan Keating'.

to all the songs above, THANK YOU for being my drive, lifting my mood and making me smile! :D

oh, and e song that's playing is Roseate Love's ost. i watched e taiwan drama a while back on youtube. e storyline's a little sad, but i still loved it. mm..3 out of 5 stars!

exams have ended yday. :) went out for dinner with wl, sy, zx, hr and julia after it at Secret Recipe. 2nd time i tried the food there, but still do not have any praises for it. I had e chicken cordon bleu, n I don't find it particularly delicious. Compared to these restaurants, I think I still prefer hawker centre and fast food, haha. Had a tough time this sem prepping for e exams, really busy w projs during e term until slightly before e start of exams. I hope we'll all do well! :D
I haven't found a job yet, still applying n getting no response. Bcos I need to earn more to save up for overseas, I'd been choosy n very particular abt e pay rates. N I do not want to find it through an agent anymore. Have just started watching Shining Inheritance. :)
