An unfinished tribute to my internship...

This suposedly song was written at times of boredom in my prison cell here it goes:


I'm wasting my life away,
Such a waste of my time,
I just sit around all day,
Like I've commited a crime,
I'm wasting my life away...
From Monday to Saturday,
What else can I say,
Just throwing my life away...
(Throwing my life away)
(Chorus)
I wish I could be free,
Like the air that we breathe,
There stood the open door,
I am running across the floor,
Reaching the end is all I'm striving for...
-Unfinished as I have better things to do at home =)-

Be Thankful

I just found this recently and want to share it with you guys. It's slightly modified by me.

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire. If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something, for it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations, because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be thankful for each new challenge, because it will build your strength and character.

Be thankful for your mistakes. They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you're tired and weary, because it means you've made a difference.

Be thankful to your parents for they have given you a chance in this world.

Be thankful for those who love you, without them you wouldn't have made it this far.

A life of rich fulfilment comes to those who are also thankful for the hard times. Gratitude can turn negative into positive. So be thankful for your troubles, and they can become your blessings. Afterall... life is the sum of your choices.

blast off into the 3rd week of intern!

woooooooo! 2 shity weeks have passed by without much of an instant and 6 more to go! At our jail placement, we rotate cells every week so that we can communicate with different inmates and experience different types of jail work. How did I get in in the first place? hahaha... This was funny/lame when I explained to my friend. I didnt know how I got in but I was dealing with blood for 2 weeks then I got arrested, they put a paper bag over my head and took me to a basement carpark. Yes I was bored and going insane hence the explanation.

For the 3rd week, I was placed in a cell which deals with samples of patient's infested tissues like appendix, cysts, granules, lumps and I even saw a whole freaking uterus. Nothing much really, I still ate chocolate after that not thinking about how my colleague cut the tissues like cutting vegetables with juices oozing out, yummy! It was really sad entering this new cell, it somehow just motivates me to kill myself over and over again. What more surprises may be coming my way?

This is my jail cell:

I just had to take a photo of this because it was such a small little window but yet they just cant leave it alone... So they built a grill... Never failing to emphasize the 'prison' design. I think the person who designed this place was an ex-criminal. On the bright side at least I can see sunlight, some trees and I got signal to my phone haha!

A message from above or at least what I thought...

Finally I found myself having a day packed with activities, 3/4 of the day actually. Exams are done with and there goes year 2 as well. Four months of holiday to look forward to and Im stressed as hell in less than a week after exams. Its funny how stress follows you around, if it isnt study stress its boredom stress or just some other people screwing things up for you. Its inevitable, somehow it'll catch up with you. But today... it caught on to me but somehow I managed to shook it off without having to self-motivate.

Back to my day, dance training at 9am, we did a lot of endurance training (physiology was on my mind throughout the exercise), this really drained half of my energy and I found myself dragging through the remaining session. So after training, I headed off to 1U to meet up with some friends for a K session. They decided to catch a movie immediately after K, I didnt join them as I planned to go to the club house to settle some membership issues and swim while Im there. So here's the part where I felt that something struck a message to me. It was around 4pm when I left 1U and was pouring really heavily (I was inside so I didnt know it was raining when I said I was heading off to the club house). So I was thinking, "should I go home instead and come again another day?" I drove on. About halfway to my destination along the highway, I saw clear skies in a distance of what I thought was where Im heading, wow I couldnt be happier. However, the moment lasted not even a good minute when the road curved away from the light and pointed me to dark stormy clouds, my real destination. I drove on, I didnt know why... I never thought of turning back. The rain got even heavier to the point where I had to use full wiper speed or else I wouldnt be able to see the road. The journey was sluggish, roads were flooded, a few accidents... what surprised me most was when I was about 1km+ before reaching, the rain gradually stopped! Not even a single drop! Mo**** F*****! Im not lying. Only then my mind came back to my physical piece of brain and I realised why I drove on.

I was stoning while driving, but this was the message that came to my focus: When we are thrown into an issue, naturally we would seek the most obvious form of comfort to alleviate the problem. But if we never take risks, we would never know what is two steps ahead of us. The phase from light to the dark clouds made me want to turn towards home but I reached my club house without a single drop of rain on me. I didnt give up or give in and I havent done so either when it came to settling some my thoughts. Neither have I given up on my hopes and beliefs.

Though the staff in the office pissed me off regarding the membership (inefficient bunch of wan ton soup), I had a good swim anyhow! =)

Enjoy the holidays!
