DAY 160

Feb 8

1) Today was an easy day for us. We had lectures from 10-1 and then it was holidays! Well, for two days to be precise. In short, we have Thurs and Fri off due to Charter Day, which apparently marks the 233th anniversary of the foundation of RCSI by Royal Charter.

2) So what would anybody do after lectures finished? Go to the library of course! I wasn't really studying to be fair, just relaxing and consolidating all my to-do stuff and projects. By evening, I had my usual dinner, before heading over to RCSI...

3) ...For our International Night rehearsal! Khee Heng and I are going to perform the Lion Dance (hopefully!) but there are many types of performances as well, reflecting our truly international spirit. We couldn't practice with the costume today, but we'll have ample time to do so next time. Anyway, practice lasted two hours, at which point I was done. Came back to the library to grab my stuff, and went home soon after. That has been my day today, and I hope you enjoyed reading. Have a great day, cheers!

DAY 157

Feb 5

1) Today has been a typical Sunday for me. We stayed up late last night celebrating our housemate, Charmi's birthday, so I woke up a bit later than usual. Had my breakfast, before walking to the library. Speaking of the library, I can't fathom why the library has to close at 10pm on Saturdays and Sundays! I mean, most students (I assume) would spend most of the weekend studying at the library, so closing an hour earlier compared to weekdays just doesn't seem rational. Anyway, once the new academic building is done (should be somewhere in March), hopefully the library opens longer there haha.

2) Had a lot of catch up to do, as I wasn't studying the latest lectures prior to the quiz. So study I did, and by evening I still had one more anatomy lecture to go. Decided that I was desperately in need of a break, so took a short nap. Had dinner at Mercer Cafe, surfing the Internet and listening to some nice songs. Came back to finish what I had left off, as well as take a glance of the coming lectures.

3) Next Thursday and Friday is Charter Day for RCSI, and while I am not quite sure exactly what it is, I know exactly what it means: HOLIDAY. Right now, that is something that can't come soon enough. Anyway, that's the gist of my day, and hope you enjoyed reading. Thanks as always, and have a great day. Cheers!
