Aptly titled so!
I honestly did not have any time to come online and update my blog, what with my birthday falling on the 21st, my exam on 23rd and my coming back home on the 24th & 25th!
Therefore there are quite a no. of things I'd like to touch upon starting with my b'day.
Truth be told I had a blast even though the tension of my upcoming exam was gnawing at my heels! Had a small party with my group-mates in the afternoon and went with my rommie to have dinner and get (sort of) high at night! :P
My group-mates gave me the best gift.....one I really appreciate...2 CDs, 1 of and old AC/DC album and another an old Joe Satriani album. Guess they know my choice....oh wait! of course they know my choice....I'm too busy ranting them out during our in-between-the-classes discussions. :) hehehe
Anyway, my roomie and I had a crazy time....what with trying out new stuff to eat and smoking a 'hookah' (which really was quite an experience.....coz you start feeling sort of 'loose' and spacey!).
On the whole I enjoyed my b'day a lot. But its safe to say that the next day, i.e 22nd of January....I did not sleep at all coz I had to cram for my exam. Now here's where I was proven that William Fichtner is indeed really lucky for me!
As before my previous exam I watched a couple of Prison Break episodes on my notebook and spent quite a bit of time on Fichtner_Firsthand just looking up the pics and vowing (still have to do it though!) to make some new pics for all the Fichtner princesses and maybe (note the MAYBE) write a fan fic of my own (unless I'm feeling very lazy).
I passed my exam on the 23rd also with a good grade....and you can't imagine how grateful and happy I felt for my 'lucky charm'! ;)
24th and 25th were crazy with catching 2 flights, waiting in transit and all the other shit associated with air-travel. I swear that I hate travelling by aeroplanes. I'm claustrophobic, and have sinusitis since I was a child....and both play up 200-fold when I'm inside a plane! So its like a living hell....an agony which I can only find momentary escape when I sleep.
Strange thing is though, I've been a frequent flyer since I was a mere child of 3, flying approximately around 4-5 times a year (which increased with my age) and still I haven't been able to adjust to it! Oh well...gaining wings and flying is more metaphoric and philosophical for me I guess.
Now that I'm safely home I feel great albeit tired.... hence I've decided to stop writing now and give myself some rest! ;) ;)
cheerio!
And that's exactly what I mean!!!
I passed my first exam with a grade 4......which is equivalent to scoring around 80-90% from a 100!
No silly 'flu virus could keep my spirits down!
And the striking Mr.Fichtner did indeed prove as my lucky charm!!!!! ;)
Honestly keeping up with my current obsession......I watched around 3 of my favourite episodes of Prison Break (Its not even worth mentioning that I only did so to watch Alex Mahone!) the day before my exam.
I was so nervous......and it didn't help in anyway when my mind started co-relating different parts of the human body which I was practicing for before my exam with...ahem different parts of Mr. Fichtner's anatomy....( GO anyone? )
Also did not help was a lil file I found tucked away in fichtner_firsthand bout a nurse's guide to human anatomy, Mr.Fichtner-style!!! ;)
God I swear.....though I didn't sleep that night except for an hour and a half, instead of the usual brain clashes people have before exams....different theories and stuff mixing up with each other.....I had some really steamy clashes of William Fichtner and all the good parts of human anatomy!
Guess it all worked out perfect in the end......I got a good grade....and I'm honestly grateful to this man for helping me out!!!
Let's see how lucky he prove's to be for my next exam on 23rd Jan! ;)
(Though my b'day's coming up sooner....and I'm focusing more on that!!)
Till my next post........
Ok, the life of a student is always filled with the tension of exams.......mine are too especially since the said exams are in less than 4 days!
Time to start hitting the panic button.
And it doesnt help a bit if the scoring at the practicals should be really, really high for you to pass on and give the theoritical exam!
So as in the life of a typical student during the exam week, mine too are filled with sleepless nights, hurried practical practice during the days and catching a few winks when I can manage. To top everything off I'm sick! The brilliance of it all never ceases to amaze me! Everytime I have some important exam...a snivelling little 'flu virus comes creeping along and enters my system to cause all the havoc it can. Now its enjoyin its stay in my body (till my immune system fights it off!), while I'm suffering the consequences.....i.e, studying difficult medical subjects with a blocked nose, throat irritation, headaches and slight temperature!
Honestly speaking the only thing keeping me sane at this time n not lose it completely (read here as my temper only!) is music (thank God for classic bands! ) and, u'll never guess it, William Fichtner!!!
Now how did William Fichtner come into the picture, I honestly don't know. I just know that everytime I can spare a few minutes online I'm checking out fichtner_firsthand, a yahoo group dedicated to him, for pictures and stuff. Somehow I've managed to find my latest crush. That man is as hot as it can get!
(Guess I should shift this part to the "Men in my Life" section ;) hehehe)
Anyway I hope he proves to be my lucky rabbit foot or my 4-clover leaf and gives me good luck for my exams!
Later then.... :)
The sole reason for me being awake and typing this nonsense is : Our hostel does not have cold water supply since the last few hours.
Now before anyone starts wondering what's that got to do with anything I'll explain: No cold water means no regulation of hot water in our showers, which means that unless we want our skin to undergo some artificial 'molting', we can't take a late shower before sleeping. And I cannot sleep without a late shower! So to overcome this dilemma, I had to take hot water in a tub and keep it standing near an open window in our kitchen for it cool down to at least room temperature (its around 2 degrees below zero outside!)...and I'm still waiting for it to cool down!!!
Life is so cruel...I really wanted to sleep early today 'cause I haven't slept properly for the last 2 and half days but thanks to this idiotic situation I can't sleep early (it's almost 2:00am now!!)
The joys of hostel life! I seriously wonder how people can tell all this shit about their times in various hostels as some of the best in life. I much prefer being home in my own room, with my comfy bed, 24 hrs cold water, cheap & unlimited internet and more intelligent people to talk to.
Seriously more than half of the people I know here have quite poor understanding about so many things. There are so many people who are so materialistic; they just want to be doctors for the money...I mean I get laughed at for saying something like I want to be a good doctor for the sake of treating people, money for me is secondary! I have a guy who's studying with me; he's only in this profession for the money. There's another who's just waiting till we start our rounds in gynaecology! LOL....guess he's imagining beautiful, naked russian women who'll just swoon over him and ask him for diagnosis! I really don't feel like bursting his bubble. Undergrads have zero chance of even touching a patient in examinations! Besides most women who have gynaecological problems are those approaching menopause, and most of them in Russia are obese and absolutely not physically attractive! Oh well....it's his imagination.....I don't have anything else to tell him.
Speaking of Russian women.....I have never seen guys so girl-crazy as I see the guys here....they just go after russian girls like flies after honey....I mean even some of my guy friends from back home want photos of 'Russian babes!'
Its as if there are no other girls in the world more attractive than these girls here!!!! Crazy!
Oh I better check if my water's cooled down or not.....I'll write more about this topic later....
G'night!!!!
