I'm gonna chew up my book.

Oh, how I wish I could stop wasting time.
TRIED to convince myself to study for Medicine test,
but this, is what I ended up doing....














A radiograph of myself.
Kinda cool. =)



The best way to a woman's heart is through her stomach.
MmmmMm...

Hope, is all I've got.

I've written and deleted at least 4 times now.
Nothings seems to be appropriate.
It's either too private or irrelevant.

So many things are going on right now,
at times I feel like i'm losing it.
There are times when I feel so helpless.
I wish someone could squeeze me tight and
tell me everything's going to be okay.

I hardly, hardly,
I mean, almost never,
hate anyone in my life.
But recently there're some ppl who..
manage to get themselves hated.
So unreasonable.
So rude.
So demanding.
So narcissistic.
So unbearable.


At times,
I feel like I'm incapable of smiling.
There's no reason to.
Though,
I guess every single person in this world is thrown with a bundle of problems.
They just come in different forms, sizes and at different times.
My lecturer mentioned 2 days ago,
if your life isn't full of problems,
you're probably walking in the wrong direction.
I suppose our lifes only differ according to how we handle these problems.

I hope things would fall into place,
real soon.
I really do miss my own sweet smiles.
Okay, i'm crapping now.

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

You are far less than what you proclaim..I wish I could tell you that in your face.





At times life just seems so dark
when some people try so hard to pull you down.
Even when you resist and succeed,
there're marks left on you.

Sometimes I wish to just sit by the beach,
have my hair brushed by the wind.
Have nothing in my mind,
nothing but you who sit by my side.

If love is not mad, it is not love.


Prostho went by like a breeze.
3 weeks of lab work was a combination of fun and pressure.



On the first week, we were finishing up our
work from the previous semester.


Special tray.
Used for taking impressions of patient without teeth (edentulous)
Had to make 2, both upper and lower jaws.







Teeth setting on the articulator.
This is the step where we arrange all the teeth as they should appear on the denture.
It's a lil bit tricky, and it's not like we can just plant in the teeth as we wish, we have to follow certain principles.
It's fun to see the end result because it looks really pretty. =)




On the 2nd and 3rd week, all we did was practising on each other how to take a good impression of the oral cavity.
It seems pretty simple but when u actually do it, it's the otherwise.





 One of our cubicles. The dental chair with all the necessary equipments.






 And of course, we need a patient..
We basically take turns to be patients.
In the beginning, all were excited to volunteer, but later our mouths got tired, and pimples started popping out due to the impression materials which get smeared all over our mouth region.

 p.s - I forgot to remove my lab coat. We're not supposed to sit on the dental chair with it.



 These are impression trays which come in various sizes.
We place the impression material onto them and they are to be inserted into our mouths.




 My dentist, aka groupmate =)






 In the process of taking an impression of my mouth.






 Materials sticking all over. I wiped half of them away already.





 Roselyn in action.


















Extra make up for Kamini. =P





End result. An impression on the teeth and surrounding structures.

We'd then pour in sth called the dental stone, which hardens in the form of the negative replica of the impressions we take,


The patient's cast.



I guess some of u might find these procedures familiar because this would have been done on u before u got yr orthodontic treatment done.




Finally, my group has moved on to paradise department, called the community dentistry (CD).
We're technically given some projects, but practically do nothing most of the time.

Projects for this posting are:
1) Browser on public health care.
2) A review on the latest community heath issue.
3) Come out with a puppet show for our dental camp in kindergardens.


CD is the most chill out department, so i am so gonna enjoy this to the very last bit. =)






Few days ago, sth nice in the library caught my eyes.





Within you

Throughout yr life, Always pursue
sensitivity and kindness
as your chosen way.

A sense of humour is wonderful,
Hold on to yours.
Being able to laugh at the world
will see you through many hard times.

Guard against bitterness and sarcasm,
They can destroy you.
Be yourself,
The world will benefit from your talent.

Search for people who love and
appreciate you for who you are
and who encourage you to improve...

Don't be satisfied with less
Than all you can be,
for you have greatness within you.
