Random September weekend posting

Feeling a bit lonely tonight, when I got home after work and sitting in the room on my own.
I'm glad my friend Sueyi is on skype, and she keeps me company. I love talking to her, I can't believe we've been friends for 8 years! How time flies! She's just the most fantastique, perfect person! She's in the States and I haven't seen her in real life for so many years but yet we managed to keep in touch. I can't wait to visit her in the States! <3>

I've been working this weekend. It's not been too bad covering 3 wards. The registrar and consultant were around most of the time. But I've more or less been the "acting junior house officer" on the wards, doing all the discharge letters, venflons and bloods.
The haematology consultant is really funny. Conversation as follows:
Consultant: Can you do me a favour and write a discharge letter for my patient? I know you FY2 love writing discharge letters.
Me: No! I am ST1!
Consultant: Wow you're all grown up!
Me: *_*
LOL

Yesterday, I had dinner at the North Hill noodle bar with Lay Ping. I had really nice char kuey teow, not quite Malaysian standard but it's 80% there (quoted from Lay Ping) :) Lots of nice big prawns. Mmmmm.
We went to one of the junior's house to chill out after, and we had more food! Pizzas, salads, banana cake, ice cream, rose wine, etc...
Watched x-factor and the Hulk after and I fell asleep halfway, and walked home at 2:30am. Was slightly scary walking home in the dark even in the hospital compound. Reminded of this scary movie-Darkness falls I watch at the cinema when I was in college, about the tooth fairy killing people who go in the dark. The movie really freaked me out, almost as bad as IT the clown movie. I was afraid of the dark and toilets for a long time. Sometimes, I'm still scared and sleep with the lights on even though I'm 27 :O

One thing I really missed about Glasgow, which I was really missing tonight was Sunday Jazz nights at The 78 bar. Listening to live jazz, sipping cider, and having a chat with friends was one of the highlights of my week. Jazz just sound so much better live. Now I am on the internet trying to find a good jazz radio station instead. Quite enjoy listening to last.fm at the moment with all the different selections of reggae, ska, jazz bands.

You don't know what you have until you lose it. So we should always love and appreciate everything around us :) Life is too short anyway.
